TAM ON the Sidewalk and listening The things I hear from-time to tim ate appalling. Of late, however, th Main topic seems to be “Old George Brown.” and chiei among the remarks made concerning this alleged vice bar. on is this: “Well, I think they have him this time.” “That's good. I am 8lad they have him." Or, “I hope they will cinch him this time.” Said one gentleman: “We should re- Joice when they capture such crooks as George Brown.” Then too, I have even heard this: “think the old man sees the hand- writing on the wall at last.” Nearly twenty-one years ago when I presumed to place myseli at” the head of a little printing establishment, this same “old mean” George Brown was one of the first old-timers to give me a printing job and offer, along. with the placing of the order, a word of encouragement. And so. I just want to say, that while the mob is crying, “Crucify him.” I rise to say, have mercy upon him; for even thorgh he is very. bad, if you will stop long enough to take a peep in his souk, you will find that even in the heart of “old black” George Brown, there is a spark of good; and possibly ii those who rejoice over the fact that:his wild career has come jo a tragic close had ‘pent a little more time and patience trying to save Brown, he would have || been a benefactor instead of a menace ‘0 this community in which he has pre-| sided for upwards of fiity years ‘ NEW YORK STILL AHEAD.

IN CHIGAGO, Wednesday morning November 12th, Judge Gentzel’s criminal courtroom was the scene of. a. litigation for" the repossessing of a $50,000 bond issue on the Institutional Church, Deatborn at 39th street, which was disposed of by the Flower broth- ers. officials of the Bankers State Bank, according to the investigation of Attorney Bindley Cyrus and. the attorneys for the receivers. Bishop A. J. Carey of the A. M. E. Church, according to the attorneys, se. gured a $15,000 loan from the Bankers Rank; after a donference with. the Flowers brother a $50,000 bond issue was floated on the Congregational Church, which he gave to the bank as collateral, the investigators reported. The, bond issue was disposed of by the bank officials, according to the at- torneys. The Bank Victims’ Protec- tive League’s secretary, W. D.

At that time John- son ‘was an ordinary porter... But his intelligence and his attention to duty won him a promotion, first as mail clerk, then in face of a storm of pro- test to the position of clerk, As the years rolled on, Johnson's integrity was unquestioned and he was given a “big chance.” He made good on the opportunity and now-is one of. the most respected employees of the irm, He is married and has a married daughter who for a while was a sub- stitute teacher in the city. But he is especially proud of his son, a student of a well-known college in this city, who is making his mark. As'a lad, the son had his eye on the judgeship as his goal. And he was en- couraged in this by no less personage than the late Judge Terrell of Wash- ington, D, The story is told that Jedge Terrell had been invited to New York to make a speech.

C. Douglas, a white law yer from Tarboro, to serve one yea and one day in the Federal Prison a Atlanta, Georgia, when the attorney was found guilty of defrauding twe aged colored women, one of whom is now dead, of funds paid to them by the government. The white attorney brought two lawyers into court to defend him, and a. host of fellow-townsmen, including his pastor, to testify as to his char acter, the minister advising the court that Douglas was “highly respected” and bore an enviable reputation in his home town, wathe testimony given by the state witnesses, and later admitted to by Douglas himself, on the other hand, showed that the’ opinion of the pastor and the citizens of Tarboro were not Justified, Douglas, according to the evi- dence and his own confession, acting as attorney for the two aged and it literate women, devised a scheme to defraud them and would have made a clean get-away had not one of the vic- tims become suspicious and related the business transaction to her son who in turn called in another laser. DEAD WOMAN DEFRAUDED ‘OF $1,000 The case in which the now. deceased Mrs. Charlotte-Brown was the victim, occured sometime ago, when the gov- ernment sent Douglas a check for $1,920, as the compensation due her son who was killed in France daring the war. Douglas carried the check to the woman, told her to. “make her mark” on the back, deposited it on his personal account, and carried her $910, advising her that he had deducted $10]. or his fee.

"Let's Go Native" has plot and action—it moves from a modiste's salon in New York to the streets of the same city, to a big coastwise steamer, to an island in the tropics, to a private yacht. There is a central love affair between Miss MacDonald and Hall, there is a secondary love affair between Oakie and Miss Francis, there is the menace supplied from several sources. But plot and action are of little consequence in the welter of laughs and roars that pitches and tosses this splendid show along to one grand hilarious tidal-wave finale.

Upton Friday, November 28, 1930 M. The reason so many people blossomed out with new suits on last Sunday was because they have learned their lesson of economy, and while the most of us wonder how they do it when times are so hard the answer can be found on the smiling face of the merchants who operate the clothing establishments who advertise the fact that they will give you free a nice, fat Turkey, with the purchase of one of their ready-made suits—nothing down but your good word. Is it any wonder that the Police have their hands full trying to keen the city clean of thugs when all a man has to do is to walk in a store, have a nice new suit put on his back, and walk out the door with a nice fat Turkey under his arm; blessings are the Thanksgiving Days and the free hearted merchants. If you would dress well and dine well, come to Los Angeles. Porters and Dining Car Crews Struck Blow as Five Football Trains Cancelled Many porters, cooks and waiters were left holding the sack last Thursday, when five trains scheduled to make the trip to the California-Stanford football classic were canceled at the last minute. For the first time in the history of Pacific Coast football hundreds of ardent football fans and students canceled their reservations on the solid Pullman trains due to leave Los Angeles, Thursday evening. It is thought that the recent article written by the editor of the Northern University casting reflection on the Trojans was responsible for the wholesale cancellation. Railroad men were badly disappointed at the sudden change as they had figured on the trips before hand. But such is the chances one must take and risk when in the railroad game. Today you are rich, and tomorrow you have to make a diligent search to find a lonely token. Uncertainty is always a big factor in the life of a railroad man. Many people are of the opinion that every time they see a railroad man going in the direction of the depot with a nice clean white collar on and a fat traveling bag that he is on his way to make a gusssack full of money, when in reality he may be hurrying to catch a deadhead car to the end of nowhere with the prospects of returning home about a week hence dead broke and hungry. It is not the intentions of the railroad man to deceive, but the willingness of the public to accept the unusual. Had the same people who watched those many railroad men on their way to the football disappointment remained to see them when they returned after being informed by those in charge that the trains were canceled, they would be much better informed on the status of the knights of the rails. The Railroad Clatter extends its sympathy. A. W. STARKS MOVES IN NEW HOME What is expected by many to be one of the social events of the year is the announcement of a House-Warming being given by Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Starks at their new home Sunday evening. Nov. 30th, from three to seven P. M. Mr. and Mrs. Starks have a host of friends and it is thought that most of the elite will be in attendance. Their new residence is located at 1629 East 114th street. Harry Knight Complains When Pet Line Given Extra Night Leaves When a dog bites a man, no one pays any attention to it. It is considered ordinary, and a happening in the every day life. BUT when a man bites a dog, it is out of the ordinary, and considered by everyone as News. It is the same thing with a porter. When a porter complains because he does not get enough layover, no one pays much attention to him, because it is ordinary; BUT when a porter registers a loud complaint because he is given a extra night layover in which to prepare himself for duty on his next trip, it is out of the ordinary and brothers, it is considered as NEWS. But believe it or not, this is just what Harry Knight has done. It seems as though Harry has been riding the rails between Los Angeles and Fresno for a good many years making two round trips before he received his layover and had adopted himself to the sacrifice of a night each trip and was satisfied. However, other porters who have been operating on the line deemed an extra night essential in order to render the proper service; further, they knew they were entitled to it and filed a petition with the management for it. Harry's name If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened 847 Central Avenue to doing it is the common belief that Mr. Perryman has become reconciled to it and will soon work out a way that is to his advantage. H. O. PHILLIPS HINTS AT CHANGE FROM BUFFET CAR H. O. Phillips, man and jack of all trades apparently has just about got his fill of serving drinks and making beds down at the same time, and it has been rumored about the district that he is seeking to relieve himself of this most troublesome burden. He removed Brother E. Ollison from the crack car on the Lark, but as is told would not be a hit put out if it was possible to put Mr. Ollison back in the harness again once more. I am told that since the Fresno line has acquired an extra night layover that he would not hesitate in making his habits a regular thing in that vicinity. Anyway wherever the gentleman may choose to eventually land, you can rest assured that a clean ball will be struck at CONSTANTLY. MR. RITTENHOUSE GOES TO CHI- CAGO MAY GET MORE LINES CAGO MAY GET MORE LINES Porters are looking forward to the taking over of some new lines. If travel is favorable on the return from Chicago of Mr. Rittenhouse, it is said that Mr. Rittenhouse promised to do all in his power to increase the work in the two districts. A few additional lines at this time would be a Xmas present to the porters on the Pacific Coast and greatly relieve the present condition on the extra board. E. A. THOMPSON TALKS MARRIAGE What apparently seems to be a gift by nature of E. A. Thompson is his constant chatter about getting married. It has become so common about the district that the porters are now beginning to look upon it as a big joke. It would most certainly be a big surprise if the dapper young man should accidently run up on some young lady who desired to-starve to death and join herself in holy wedlock with this dreamer. Any young lady who desires to take such chances will kindly get in touch with the writer and he will gladly put you on the inside track. DAVE SMITH, POPULAR WAITER, BACK ON JOB Those in railroad circles were particularly glad to see Dave Smith that popular Southern Pacific food dispenser back on the job once more. * * * * Charlie McCormick, waiter who met with a serious accident some time ago was seen around the Southern Pacific Commissary last week. * * * * L. Jenkins is back on the job once more to the pleasure of the regular patrons of his line and a large circle of friends. Porters Suffer During Dull Period With business still at a very low ebb many porters who are bucking the extra board are actually suffering it being a common thing nowadays for an extra man to be stuck on the bench for a solid week before being able to get out on a run. The pulling off of several lines did not help the situation a bit and has thrown the district in confusion by the constant bumping of porters from line to line. A year ago porters were rather particular what line they operated on, however the depression has changed the situation all around and now a porter is glad to get a line no matter how bad, in order to be making regular time. The district needs more lines to relieve the extra board—but try and get them. I have no doubt if more lines were available the management would be only too glad to get them. It takes business to make lines and business seems to have gone on a vacation. If things continue to keep up like they are at the present writing, the Pullman Company will have to serve the coffee and sandwiches they have been serving at the safety meetings to the men on the extra board who must report every day whether they eat or not. A mighty good way of relieving the steady idleness of those on the extra board would be for every porter who is now operating in regular line trip in and trip out to lay off for one trip and let an extra porter go out in his plaque. He could well afford to do this providing the management would allow it, and by so doing it would enable the extra porter to at least pay his gas bill and keep the wolf away from the door. All over the country industries are endeavoring to work out a method to help the unemployed, many are inaugerating a five-day week in order to give some employees who are in desistite circumstances a few days work. The writer thinks that the suggestion of regular line porters having a heart and layin off for at least one trip would greatly help the present state of a stagnant extra board. Porters who are running regular do not know the actual plight of some of was not on it, but it was granted. Now Harry is reported to the Clatter as being a rather hard individual to get along with. And such is life. SAN DIEGO AN AGENCY No doubt all of the porters of the district are well acquainted with the fact that San Diego has been converted into an agency. But the news has just reached the Clatter. During the time that the writer was in the service and operating to this quaint little town, he experienced many things which brought to his mind that the terminal should be made an agency. In the first place it is a great tourist city. In fact, more people visit San Diego than any pitier city in the State of California. A trip to the coast is not considered complete unless one has included San Diego in his or his or her itinerary, therefore there are always a great number of cars laying over there which require the direct supervision of an official in authority. Heretofore a foreman has looked after this end of the business. But now that the change has been made there is no doubt but what a better brand of service will be able to be rendered to both porters and the traveling public, there are several lines terminating at this point. What did you do before you entered the Pullman Service? The new type Pullman buffet sleeping cars which were put in service on the fashionable limited the "Lark" which transports the elite and select travel between "Los Angels" and San Francisco are more than getting their share of the buffet business. Before these modern equipped cars were introduced in the service the S. P. buffet cars were the only source in which a thirsty passenger could obtain refreshments. And on a train carrying anywhere from seven to thirteen sleepers the service was not always a feature to be bragged about. Sam Houston, Sam Tibbs and Gyp Smith, three of the very best buffet men in the country had their hands full attending to the various orders throughout the entire train, and looking after a car full of men always found in the buffet car at the same time. For instance, if a party should happen to develop in the observation car it would make matters quite complicated, the buffet car being located at the head end of the train. Just about the time the bar man started back to the observation car to serve the party back there, a gang would ring the bell for orders in the buffet car, on his way back to the observation car thirsty passengers would siege him in practically six out of every ten sleepers for an order right away, this of course could not be done even though in late years after the train became so heavy they put on an upstairs man. Things were not altogether satisfactory as any old timer now operating on the Lark will tell you. The Pullman Company ever ready to see that their patrons get the very best of service and quick to see the possibility of additional revenue, introduced their own latest type buffet cars into the service with buffet at one end and about six berths in the other end. And as an added attraction they placed them in charge of Chinese porters. The cars made a tremendous bit with the public the very first trip they made their appearance. And well they should, for they were a thing of master craftsmanship and beautiful to look at as well as ride in. The public accepted the cars, but frowned on the Chinese bar men; not because they were Orientals, but because they could not render the service that was required of them. Revenue from these elegant cars was not near what it should be and the Pullman Company very soon found it out. They were quick to call the Colored boys back into service on these cars; in fact, the Orientals were only in service about two weeks. When the boys were put back into the service then seemed to realize that it was up to them to make good and in order to do so they had to give service and increase the revenue. The writer wishes to state right here and now that he is proud of the way the Los Angeles Ports handled the situation. They went about their task in a diligent manner rendering that brand of service which the American public has been educated up to for the last fifty years. The Railroad Clatter was considerably interested in the change, and was one of the leading publications in the fight to have the colored porters restored to their rightful places. May the good service continue. J. W. PERRYMAN \WORKING IN S. P. YARDS J. W. Herrman, former Pullman porter operating out of the Los Angeles district was seen last week doing his daily dozen in the S. P. Yards although the work is entirely different from that he has been accustomed if you call a Black & White, the lowest fare cabs in Los Angeles. You ride in privacy—comfort—and in one of the city's smartest cabs. Yet you ride for less than in any other cab in Los Angeles. On each fare you save 5 to twenty-five cents. BLACK & WHITE CABS THE LOWEST FARE CABS IN THE CITY MAdison 1311 their co-workers who are compelled to keep their families on the earnings of about one trip a week. Some don't care, and fall back on the filmy excuse that they had to do the same thing when they were on the extra board; but it is a poor excuse. In fact the traveling situation at no time during the history of the Pullman Company has ever witnessed such a depression. Now is the time to act. Help your fellow man. Don't kick him when he's down and out, reach down and give him a hand. Some of the boys reporting have not even got car fare back and forth to the office. It's a mighty selfish man who won't help a man like that. The writer would be glad to receive some comments on this suggestion from his readers. Just address your letters to Chas. L. Upton, 2190 W. 30th St. What did you do before you entered the Pullmna service? Again Xmas is but a month away, and again we find ourselves broke. A man will be afraid to hang his stocking up this year; someone might need it. The Xmas Greeting Card is going to have to play a big part this year. E: L. Arnaud is now heralded as the fastest porter on foot in the district, owing to the fact that he ran away from A. W. Starks like a Limited train would a freight. It was reported that the two sprinters clashed for a 100-yard dash up in San Francisco and Starks developed a Charlie horse. E. Woods has already engaged himself to be the porter on the Stanford game to be played in New York next year. That's what I call looking a long way ahead. He was also the porter in charge of the Stanford team to L. A. this year when they received a terrific beating at the hands of the powerful U. S. C. If they paid off according to the score that was made, I take it that Mr. Woods is a glutton for punishment. They held the football porters over in San Francisco from Friday till Sunday. Among those who were seen in the Northern city were E. Ollison, E. A. Thompson, J. J. Green, E. Woods, S. O. Thompson, A. Glasscow, J. Crockett, J. Anderson and E. Myers. I have been informed that E. Myers will try his hand at crashing the gate at the U. S. C.-Washington football game Thanksgiving, the last man that did that got a free ride to the Georgia Street Hospital. W. J. Logan is waiting with tears in his eyes for another trip to Atlanta. And if he keep, on calling Watts, South Beverly, he will get his wish. SICK LIST The following porters were on the sick list at this writing according to the Chairman of the Sick Committee; Dan Hood T. Simmons, Santa Fe Hospital; B. G. Scott and R. C. Franklin. J. L. HILL FAST RECUPERATING Attaches of the Angelus Funeral Home were surprised last week by an unexpected visit from Mr. J. L. Hill who has been confined to his home for some time as a result of an operation. Mr. Hill looked the helper from his long rest, and it is hoped by his many friends that his health will continue to improve. Your P. P. B. A. Grand Delegate and Mr. S A Coffin are having such a good time back in the bomb city that they have not as yet dropped the Glatter a fine. THE SERVICE Owing to the fact that the writer was unable to make his usual rounds this week he was unable to get in touch with many transcripts for this column. However, the following porters were contacted: When interviewed J. L. Barnette, now operating on the Owl Limited, stated that he was a Chauffeur by trade, and was the town's talk back in Pensacola, Fla. However, we have not looked up his safety record in this city since he has been out of the game. But we hope to be able to tell you how many lamp posts he has purchased before long. HOOTS OF THE OWL Well! Well! Well! Turkey day has come and gone, and I am wondering just how many of us understood the true significance of that wonderful day, and how many of us really gave thanks that we were spared to see another Thanksgiving Day. We are, as every one knows in the grip of depression, yet we all, each of us have something for which to be thankful; so let us throughout the rest of this year and next year up until next Thanksgiving give thanks, and be glad that things are as they are, and are not any worse.

TEMPLE Specializing in Women's Diseases and Obstetrics NOTE: Please address al queries concerning this col- umn to Dr. Dr. Druth J. Temple, 803 E. 32nd St. HU. 3419 or VA. 1221 TO THE GIRL OF FOURTEEN YEARS CONCERNING EXERCISE It is wonderful to note the good change in the amount of physical exercise which the young girl and woman of the twentieth century takes as compared with that taken by the women of the former ages. It is a blessing that the out door pleasures and industries formerly thought vulgar and common, are now recognized as sensible and helpful and healthful to women as well as to man. In ancient Greece the woman was considered as important, that of man. We read in history of those ancient times of the exploits of female gladiators even, and women were frequently found contending for prizes in the athletic sports which were so popular at that age of the world. PHYSICAL INFERIORITY OF WOMEN Today, "in civilized countries the physical inferiority of women is much more-marked than in uncivilized countries. Among barbarous nations the difference between the physical development of men and women is far less than that observed among civilized people. This is undoubtedly due to the fact that the mode of life among barbarous nations is such that the females are required to perform quite as much daily physical labor as males. Among some nations, in fact, a great portion of the labor is done by the females. The last remark is also true of some lands called civilized." ITALY-WOMEN-DONKEYS It is reported that travelers in Italy record that it is a not uncommon sight to see a man going to market with a cart loaded with vegetables drawn by a team consisting of a donkey and his muscular wife harnessed up together. One traveler reports having seen a woman and a cow yoked together before entering the countries of onlainiinal Europe. Women growing up under such conditions would not be likely to be lacking in the matter of physical development, although they might suffer for want of symmetrical development. WOMEN OF AMERICA- It is a fact that as compared with other women of the world that the average American woman is decidedly lacking in physical development. Observe for instance the girl or women students of our schools. Notice howew possess shapely bodies, a strong, elastic vigorous, well developed waist, plump arms, broad backs and a full chest. It is a rare thing to see a lady with a good walk or a graceful carriage. Most of the young women whom we meet have narrow backs, flat chests, round shoulders dropping forward, thin necks, scrachy arms, small waists and an awkward gait. The needy bloom of health is substituting abilities because our girls have not the vigor to produce roses without their aid. Girls are not to be blamed for their lack of symmetry and their numerous deficiencies in physical development if they have had no opportunities to develop strong bodies. But very fortunately for us a new day has partially dawned in which physical exercise for girls and women is taking its place. Remember that we have new freedom; we must be quick to detect any approaching new fashion in dress which will in any way further restrict our bodies. Next week we will discuss the suffering caused to women thrustout their life time by improper exercise as girls. MANSLAUGHTER IN THIS CASE IT'S Texarkana, Ark., Nov. 26.—(ANP) J. F. Gunnels, white, cotton buyer of Waldo, Ark., was held for the Miller County grand jury on three charges of manslaughter in connection with a fatal automobile accident on Nov. 4, in which three colored men lost their lives. He was released under $1,000 bond, each case in a habeas corpus hearing. IS. THIS—MURDER? Hazelhurst—Elihu Lynch, charged with running down A. E. Ainsworth-white business man, on the flight of Nov. 1, has been indicted for murder by the Copiah County Grand jury. Ainsworth died in a Jackson Hospital from his injuries. ```markdown ``` If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened Indian Leaders Present United Front At London Parley By A.N.P. New York, Nov. 26—More significant than anything else which has been seen or heard at the round-table conference which is now being held between delegates from India and representatives of England in St. James palace where the future of India is being discussed, has been 'the united front which the Indian delegates have shown. A handful of Englishmen, so to speak, have successfully kept nearly four hundred million Englishmen under control for more than 150 years by the simple device of setting the Indians against one another, employing the old familiar strategy of empire building. But the Indians seem to have awakened to the necessity of forgetting their many different interests for the sake of their one common interest—independence. Thus one finds at the London conference Moslems and Hindus seeking independence for India, Brahmins and "untouchables", the rulers of princely states and the representatives of British India. The British have been unable to find any point at which they might puncture this unity. This is all the more remarkable in view of the fact that the largest, strongest, and most active party in India, the party of Mahatma Gandhi, is not represented at the conference. The Ghandites refused to have anything at all to do with it, alleging that the British were not sincere in their proposals toward India. They demand independence for India without any strings or time limit. The existence of this back-home group which completely ignores what is going on in London, has had a powerful influence on the delegates at London who feel that it will be almost impossible for them to return to India if they fail to bring back such an understanding as the people demand. Among the significant statements at the conference was one that the British would have to accept the Indian demand, but that in the traditional manner, she might wait until such a time as the act would be cleared of all its grace. Lord Robert Peel and Lord Reading, former viceroy in India, have both spoken before the conference. Lord Peel's address angered the Indians. Thmis stubborn old Englishman declared that the Indians were not ready for independence and that they needed to remain under the beneficient influence of England longer. Lord Reading said that it might be all right to the Indian nation in some things, but that Great Britain should retain control of the army, navy, and financial affairs. The Indian delegates have presented a picturesque appearance in the English capital. The maharahaj of Rhabdanga brought $15,000,000 worth of jewels with him to wear on special occasion. Most of his pearls are large-earthman clerics, and he thus equals as large a man's fist. Since 1796, his family has annually put away 4,500,000 rubes in their strong chest. The young man, who is only twenty-five, would make good pickings for an Anglo-Saxon gold digger. OSCAR DEPRIEST TO BE PRE SENTED BY PICKENS New York, Nov. 26—William Packens, field secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, will present Oscar De Priest as the chief speaker at the closing meeting on Nov. 30, of the Camden, New Jersey, N. A. A. C. P. contest campaign. The meeting is expected to give a thorough airing to the police brutality. It is hoped to hold the meeting in the city Convention Hall, which seats 8,000, but if political powers prevent use of that auditorium, one of the largest theaters will be used. Not only will colored people of Camden, churches, ministers, and all leaders support the meeting but in addition large delegations are expected from Philadelphia. Irving T. Nutt is president of the Camden N. A. A. C. P. and Dr. Richard P. Bowman, secretary. MAGAZINE SECTION New York, Nov. 26.—A firm stand by Clarence Darrow of the N. A. A. C. P. National Legal Committee, broke down an attempt at segregating colored people in a meeting held Nov. 18 in Washington, D. C. it was made known today. The meeting in the Washington Auditorium was an "all-star forum" in which Clarence Darrow as an Agnostic explained why he was an agnostic; Rabbi Abram Simon explained why he was a Jew; Quin O'Brien why he was a Catholic and Jason Noble Pierce why he was a Protestant. On Nov. 14, the Washington, D. C. Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. learned that arrangements were being made to segregate colored people at the meeting, the manager of the Auditorium stating boldly that colored people could obtain seats in the gallery only. Mrs. Emma F. G. Merritt, president of the Branch, got in touch with the various speakers, in an effort to persuade them to withdraw from speaking unless the meeting were opened to all people alike. None of the speakers would make the issue, save only Mr. Darrow, who was finally reached by Walter White, acting secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., in New York. Mr. Darrow promptly telegraphed the management objecting to the segregation. Who once the so-called Agnostic who did the Christian thing, viz: broke down segregation once least," comments Rev. Robt. W. Brooks of the Lincoln Memorial Congregational church of Washington in writing to the N. A. A. C. P., his thanks and pledge of loyalty. Says Rev. Brooks in his letter to the N. A. A. C. P.; "As I told you over the telephone the management of this affair had already set apart the seats in the gallery of the auditorium for Negroes. Within an hour after Mr. Darrow's telegram was received, Negroes could buy tickets anywhere in the house. We feel that a great victory was won in that they were forced to change a negro's negotiation that they are trying hard to maintain". Mrs. Merritt states: "The Darrow 'open door' to all policy worked, and seats are being secured wherever desired." Chicago, Nov. 26—(ANP) Albert Crockett, proprietor of a hard store in Peoria, 173 miles by the most direct route from this city, has lost his faith in elections and political candidates. He arrived in town Thursday, weary, and foot-sore, because of the force of circumstances that compelled him to keep a pledge made before the last election. Mr. Crockett chose a white man to do his betting with. The white gentleman was Dan Cline, as good a Republican as Mr. Crockett. But to Mr. Cline there are some Republicans who have a chance and some who have not. To Mr. Crockett they all seem good. He had unbound faith in the senatorial candidate Ruth Hanna McCormick. He was willing to bet Mr. Cline that Mrs. McCormick would defeat her Democrat rival, James Hamilton Lewis, Mr. Cline took a practical view of the situation and laid his dough on Lewis. Thereupon Mr. Crockett agreed that if Lewis won he would push a wheel-harrow containing a bushel of coal from Peoria to Chicago. If Mrs. McCormick won, Mr. Cline was to pay Mr. Crockett $50. If Lewis won, and Mr. Crockett felt like he did not want to push that coal to Chicago, he agreed that Mr. Cline might take possession of his second-hand store. Crockett left Peoria Nov. 7 and walked the 173 miles in exactly 74 walking miles, making a daily average of 13.3 miles per hour, twenty minutes in each hour and resided 20. On the route Crockett attracted a multitude of people, some of whom offered to help, but refused these offers. The winning of the bet, however, cost the white man more than he would have had to pay if he lost. It was necessary for him to come along to see that Crockett did a steady job of walking. He found that he had spent considerable in excess of fifty dollars when he reached Wrigley Tower here Chicago. Nov. 26.—(ANP) Undermining o the mentality and character of American white boys and girls of high school and college age with discussion of free love, atheism, companionate marriage, and intermingling of the white and colored races was charged against "certain professors" the country by Col. Edwin Marshall Hatcher, white author, lecturer, and chlamydia expert before the Chicago chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, according to a story published in: the Chicago Daily News. MEETING WAS HELD IN THE STEVENS HOTEL Only white persons were present as the choleric colonel discussed on the dangers of red or Communist propaganda which seems to have as one of its prime objects the obliteration of racial hate and prejudice. Col. Hadley is alarmed lest the activities of these professors lead to sympathy for soviet Russia and the loss of some good old American ideals of "white supremacy." "I would not make the charges I do without proofs." Prof. Hadley is reported to have said. "Herts are some of the activities, taken at random of some teachers in our schools. Students in Chicago are recruited for so-called 'reconciliation' trips, evidently under the sanction of the university authorities. These mixed groups of 18 and 20-year-old boys and girls are fed at Negro clubs, communist kitchens, and haunts of what the prospectus of the trip calls 'the socially maladjusted', or, in plain language, degenerates. "In an eastern college for women, a questionnaire was made-up on which appeared these questions discussed by these young girls: 'Do you prefer marriage with children?' or 'Do you prefer children without marriage?' This is the same instructor who stated in his book, 'In fact, it seems obvious that large number of mulattoes have latterly crossed the line into white stock. One cannot see that there should be the slightest objection to this from the standpoint of race biology." Col. Hadley is not alone in his views it seems. This week there was evidence that certain policemen in the city have the same ideas. Members of the Seven Arts Club, a liberal organization which entertains colored guests, had adjourned their last meeting for a tour of the colored district. The police and women were observed by policemen looking for the number of a certain house, they were immediately arrested on the assumption that they were suspicious characters. All were dismissed the following day in court. Prefers Cannibals To New Yorkers New York, N. Y., Nov. 26—(ANP) The theory that cannibals in Africa were cruel and merciless was blasted here Tuesday night when W. C. Seabrook, white author, who had just returned from Africa, declared that Yafoua tribesmen were kinder to him than the New Yorkers he met on the streets here and that he preferred the cannibal country to New Jersey. Mr. Seabrook, who is the author of "The Magic Island," said that he went to Africa to obtain material for a new book on Voodooism and magic among the natives. He stated: "I landed a year ago at Grand Bassam on the Ivory Coast and went through forest and jungle on the borders of Liberia. I rode a camel and was at times carried in a planquin by native porters." "I found the native worship was Voodooism and the magic is called 'Ju Ju.' I was in Timbuktu where I found it was comparatively cool and then back toward Lake Chad, where I found cannibals living on a mountain. They cat human flesh only once a year at the annual ritual and are really a very kindly people. I had fever in Timbutuco and was ill when I lived with the cannibals for two months. They took excellent care of me and at all times considerate of my welfare and in bringing me back to health." New York, Nov. 26-At the suggestion of Prof. Benjamin Brawley, of Shaw University, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is urging colored people throughout the United States to celebrate the 100-year anniversary, next January 1, of the founding of William Lloyd Garrison's "Liberator." A statement issued on the subject by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People reads as follows: "On January 1, 1831, in the city of Boston, was published the first number of William Lloyd Garrison's "Liberator" one of the earliest, most determined formidable of anti-slavery publication in America. The The Liberator did much toward making slavery an inescapable national issue and toward bringing about emancipation of the slaves. "In the very first issue, the policy of the Liberator was stated as follows: The primary object of this publication will be the abolition of slavery and the moral and intellectual elevation of our colored population." "Its editors, Mr. Garrison and Isaac Knapp, were deadly earnest at a time when it was positively dangerous to be an abolitionist even in Boston. They proclaimed: 'The Publishers' of the Liberator have formed their partnership with a determination to print the paper as long as they can subsist upon bread and water, or their hands obtain employment. The friends of the cause may therefore take courage; its enemies—may surrender at discretion. "At the time the Liberator was first published William Lloyd Garrison could report of the situation in New England: 'I found contempt more bitter, opposition more active, deterrence more effective, more born, and apathy more frozen than among slave-owners themselves.' But this situation Garrison met with a ringing declaration that has since become world-famous: 'I am in earnest—I will not equivocate—I will not excuse—I will not retreat a single inch—and I WILL BE HEARD.'" "The centenary of the first publication of the Liberator, which comes on January 1, 1931, gives opportunity to American Negroes to commemorate one of the boldest champions of injustice in the history of the world through the UA A, A C, P, commends that wherever practicable there be held 'Liberator' dinners, 'Liberator' mass meetings for other gatherings, at which Garrison's work may be recalled and the flame of his spirit of emancipation kept brightly burning." The tradition of Mr. Garrison is being kept alive today by his grandson, Oswald Garrison Villard, editor and publisher of The Nation. Sympathy--Or Silence If I stand by with idle hands While opportunity comrands. The fact affords the evidence I underrate the consequence If everybody else should claim The privilege to do the same. If I look on with cynic eyes, And querulously criticise, When my assistance might achieve, Or my encouragement relieve, I then and there concede to you The liberty to do it, too. Suppose that every one should choose Co-operation to refuse. Suppose that every one should choos Co-operation to refuse. Or, faults and fobiles to condemn Instead of rectifying them— Suppose that all the world should shirk. Who then would carry on its work? Let no unsympathetic word or syllable from him be heard?

Nov. 26—(ANP) Among the 46 persons awarded medals for heroism by the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission were Quillie Addison, of Syllabia, Ga., and Henry Miller of Fort Mill, S. C., according to an announcement made by the officials of the Commission. Addison, who is 36 years old and a janitor, the report stated, saved Wm. Z. Kemp, a 66-year-old white man, from burning to death in Syllabia, Oct. 17, 1929. The white man in his bedroom in the ceiling of the hall of his home. Doors in the ends of the hall were open and the flames quickly. When the flames were sweeping through the building and scores of people stood by afraid to attempt to rescue the aged white man. Addison crawled along the floor and entered the apparently doomed man, and with the aid of a mattress brought him to safety. Both of the men were severely burned but recovered. In the case of Miller, who is 44 years old and a farmer, he demonstrated unusual bravery in rescuing Wm. J. Hamilton, a farm-hand, from a caved-in-well at Fort Mill, S. C. On December 7, 1927. Both men were caught in the cave-in, but Miller managed to free himself and later was lowered down in the well, where he dug out Hamilton and brought him out of the well. His heroism was commended by the men who helped in the rescue work and the recommendation for the Carnegie Award received favorable action. Miller and Addison, like the other 44 persons received a bronze medal. To date according to the report, 2,466 have received awards from the Commission, 28,076 cases have been turned down and there are yet 339 cases pending, and pensions in force amount to $156,453 annually. Interest High as State Endeavors to Convict White Slayer Memphis, Tenn. Nov. 26.—(ANP) Public interest is centered on the tria of S. O. Bejach, white, charged with killing Will Ford, a Negro youth. Ever since the trial opened the courtroom has been packed with citizens of both parties who listen with a great attention as the attorneys for the state seek to prove that the murder of the youth was unprovoked and the attorneys for the defense essay to convince the jury that the killing was in self-defense. The attention of the public was first aroused when it was announced that great difficulty was being experienced in the selection of a jury. It proved to be a mighty hard matter to find twelve white men here who would convict a white man for killing a Negro. The state scored the first point when it presented Dan Brown, a Negro youth, who was an eye-witness to the murder. Brown told the court that on the day of the killing which happened last May, in the Union Drug Company, Beijach calmly called Ford to the store and after arguing with him a few minutes, shot and killed the youth who worked for him at his tire shop. "They got in an argument," said Brown, "about Three Dollars that Beijach said Ford owed him. Beijach asked Ford to go back over to his store on Mississippi avenue to talk it over with him, but Ford refused, because the day before Beijach had pulled a gun on him. Bejach tried to plaster that over by saying that the gun was not loaded, but Ford still refused to go. Bejach walked out of the store and returned in about five minutes, called Ford to the door and shot him." Attorneys for the defense, as well as Bejach, declared that the defendant had killed the youth in self-defense, when the boy attacked him with a soda water bottle. The state ridiculed this defense and declared that the case was one of unprovoked and premeditated murder and urged the jury to bring in a verdict of guilty in the first degree, pointing also to the fact that Ford was shot several times by Bejach. ```markdown ``` Friday, November 28. 1930 MUSICAL WEST CONDUCTED BY JOHN A. GRAY MUSICAL WEST CONDUCTED BY JOHN A. GRAY One of the first things that a vocal student should ask himself is—"How are my tones?" After all, music is sound and one must be able to produce good resonan sounds before he can hope to do anything else. With all due respect to the many vocal methods employed by various teachers, we say that all aim at the same result, viz. that of producing good, vibrant tones. Without this requirement the act of singing is a mere mechanical exercise. The vocalist must concentrate on a good tone, easily produced, true to pitch and well-controlled. A good, steady tone requires good, steady breath-control. Here is where the vocalist must work from the purely physical side by practicing certain exercises of breathing that will develop those muscles that regulate and control the act of breathing. The manner of producing these tones may vary according to the methods used, but repeat that all good tones may vary according to the methods used, but we repeat that all good tones are true to pitch, resonant and well-controlled, which means steadiness of tone-production. And yet, hundreds of students are wasting time learning songs that they will never be able to properly render until the foundation of singing is correctly laid. The average voice student knows very little about music. They sing parrot-fashion. That is to say, that they learn their songs by note. Very few are capable of taking up a new song and humming it off to sight. Strange to say that the majority of musicians teach the teach or insist upon the pupil's learning of music. The result is that there are fewer musicians among the singers than among any other group of students. Beauty of tone production calls for an accurate sense of pitch and an easy, free manner of producing said tones. A sincere student will think of these things first and will test himself to see how closely he adheres to correct principles of beautiful tone production. A race that is endowed with a natural voice such as our race has, should produce good singers than we are producing. Perhaps because the majority of our really serious voice students have been those persons who have had very little voice to start with. Also, the really beautiful, luscious voices are possessed by those persons who feel that they do not need vocal training. At any rate, the output of great singers is small compared with the amount of raw material that is to be found among us. Let us repeat, that the vocal as well as the instrumental student must strive to perfect the quality of his tone before he can do anything else artistically. No amount of technical ability can make up for poor, tonal effects. Declines Canal Zone Appointment Orangeburg, S. C. Nov. 26.—(ANP) Appointment as director of vocational education for Negro pupils in the Panama Canal Zone has been declined by John P. Burgess, State Inherent Teacher of Vocational work among Negroes of South Carolina. This singular honor was recently offered to Prof. Burgess through Hampton Institute, where he received the degree of Bachelor of Science in rural and vocational education. Prof. Burgess who has received two scholarships from the educational officials of South Carolina, felt that he owed his services to this state and its people. He, therefore, declined the offer which for the first time had come to a Negro. Together with his position as state innerrant teacher, Prof. Burgess is Executive Secretary of the Palmetto State Teachers' Association and an outstanding leader in vocational education.

Declares That Negro Progress Is Retarded By Economic Status Oxford, Pa. Nov. 26—By A. N.

Neither art nor science may thrive on poverty. If we owned more printing presses, we would bring out more poets and novelists. If we had more music publishing houses under our financial control, we would produce more great musicians. Poverty and philanthropy lay certain limitations upon genius itself."

FATHER AND SON BANQUET— # NINTH STREET AND BOYLE AVE. One of the most enjoyable and enthusiastic affairs given this season was when the Dad's came into their own at the Father's and Son's Banquet, Thursday night. Nov. 13 at Quinn Chapel. The capacity of the spacious dining room was taxed when about eighty guests sat down to a delicious repast. Mr. R. Eugene Edwards acted as toastmaster for the program. Much credit is due to the committee who sponsored this treat. The feat was the result of the ingeniousness and tact of Mrs. Elizabeth Woods who so nobly and ably assisted the captain of "The Tribe of Dan," Mrs. Mary Shelby. This get-to-gather meeting provided a feeling of felicity and fellowship and one sensed in the atmosphere an attitude of responsibility that one has for another—a true community spirit. A delightful and interested congregation was gratified to learn that the sum of $4315 was realized from the Coal Mite Boxes. The families and individuals who were the contributor were agreeably surprised at the offering which was free-will without any solicitation. Mr. Fred Forbes donated a ten of coal.

Does Religion give an assurance of Divine Providence? Does Religion offer any method of meeting the individuals needs? Is Religion a Community Need? Can it meet and solve the Community's problems? Religion is a way of life and and the only character building element in humor life. PRIEST Religion is a recreator instead of a Reformer. It makes the old man a new creature and gives him a new mind and a new attitude toward life. "Watts said that a man is measured by his Rev. I. Moore 'Soul; that the mind is the standard of the man.' It is because of the view, that Religion is both an individual and a community need. The First A. M. E.

PHONE: WEstmore 3195 Tender Reception to Rev. and Mrs. Isaacs Birmingham Church To 1st A.M.E.Zion Church Aid Destitute To Hold Celebration The outstanding social event of this month, at First A. M. E. Church, was the very creditable reception at which the Beloved Pastor and his charming wife were welcomed to preside here for another year. The congregation at large desired the return of the couple and the Bishop, H. B. Parks, granted that wish, with foresight of great accomplishments in the future at that particular charge. Mr. Elmer C. Bartlett, choir master, was responsible for the well-planned program, with a way only he has of doing big things, and assisted by the Auxillaries, the Reception was a festive credit to the church. The interesting feature of the program was the fact that plans were carefully carried out for a Reception of sincerity as well as an auxiliary affair of good will. It seemed to have been realized that the leadership of Rev. and Mrs. Isaacs is beyond question; that to have them back is delightful; that the year's program as far as concerns them is assured, but the co-operation of every member and the clubs of the church will indeed make the end of the year a glorious one because of that spirit of co-labor having produced desired results. In keeping with the plan of the Auxiliaries gledging their honest support to this year's administration, Mr. Bartlett chose representatives to deliver addresses in behalf of the respective clubs. Mrs. F. K. Burgess, acting as mistress of ceremonies, added un air of dignity to the occasion with her attitude of poise and of presenting the program. The Stewards of the church were well represented by a staunch member of high standing and supporter of the church, in the person of Mr. George Warner; and the Vanity Fair Club by Miss Frances Curry, each extending a sincere welcome and message of good-will. Miss Eloise Simpson, especially deserves creditable mention for her beautifully worded address in behalf of the Usher Board. Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 26—(ANP) Dr. M. Sears, pastor of the Bethel Baptist church of this city, announced Tuesday night that aged and destitute men and women will be served a dinner on Thanksgiving Day, at the church. "The congregation of Bethel church" said the pastor, "recognizes that there will be many old people of our race hungry on Thanksgiving Day unless they can be fed by those who have jobs and are able to work. We are determined to do what we can to relieve such a condition and will also furnish transportation to those desiring it." Mr. McKinney in an able address, representing the Trustees of the Church, pledged undaunted support, in glowing terms of choice words, choice expressions and choice thoughts. Miss Pansy Harper represented all Auxiliaries with an address on "Cooperation Good Will." Her closing remarks were, "We shall not love in word, neither, in tongue, but in deed and truth. Following these pledges of the Auxiliaries, short and timely addresses were delivered by Rev. J. W. Howard, of Wards Chapel; Rev. R. R. King, of Bethel Church; and Rev. M. F. Mitchell, pastor of the Christian Church, respectively. Mrs. Burgess introduced Miss Anita Conway, who in turn presented Mrs Isaacas as she is so well-known, as a modest, sincere Christian woman, having been truly called to her work, and of a family of ministers of the gospel, all adhering to the principles of Christ. With these closing words of Miss Conway, "Mrs. Esther Isaacas, in her own right, not the wife of our pastor, but whose husband Rev. Isaacas is fortunate to be,"—the audience with great ovatoin received the reticent "wife" of the "Beloved Pastor." Mrs. Isaacs responded to the words of praise in a beautiful manner, remarking that it is a service she renders, in which service she delights, though sometime there might be trials to experience in the contact with so many unfortunatees of he world who look to the minister and his wife for soace. Atty. Tyler was introduced who in his remarkable maner presented "Dr. John B. St. Felix Isaacs," gentleman, scholar, philosopher, theologian and friend. Rev. Isaacs responded to the honors, welcomes and friendliness in well chosen words of appreciation for past wonderful efforts of his "flock" and future assured success. Refreshments were served in the dining room of the church by members of the Auxiliaries, who were appropriately attired in flattering gowns befitting the occasion. The membership of the First A. M. E. Zion Church has arranged a unique reception to be held on Thursday evening, December 6th, 1930, in the Dining Room of its church. corner of Pico and Paloma Streets, honoring its pastor and his family at the beginning of his sixth year at this church. At the memorable conference held at Phoenix, Arizona, October 15th, 1930 Bishop J. W. Martin, again appointed the Rev. I. Albert Moore to the pastorate of the First A. M. E. Zion Church of Los Angeles. In September, 1925, Rev. Moore came with his family from Hanford, California, to take up the work in Los Angeles. Full of enthusiasm he entered into his new duties with determination. With his wife, Mrs. Irene Moroe, and daughter, Muriel Jeannette, Rev. Moore has stepped right into the hearts of Zion followers and the public at large. He soon became identified with the leading movements of the city, especially among our group. He is president of the Ministerial Alliance and has done outstanding work in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. His most appreciated work as pastor in the local church has been the installation of the envelope system and a general efficient management of the church finances. Mrs. Moore has done commendable work with the Missionary Society in particular, as well as other auxiliaries. Popular and pleasant, she, with her husband, is upholding the name of "Friendly Zion." Prof. J. C. Banks is acting as general chairman for this great social event. "Our pastor," says Mr. Banks, "has been exceptionally liberal and fair with the congregation here. We feel that the public should know of his very unselfish attitude and the many good things that he has done. We are happy to be able to extend this courtesy to Rev. Moore and his family and we invite our friends to be with us on December 6th." The following committees have been appointed by Prof. Banks: Reception, Mrs. J. W. Martin, chairman; Refreshments; Mrs. Mamie Thompson, chairman; Gifts, Mrs. G. R. Martin, chairman; Decoration Mrs. Beatrice De Vaughn, chairman; and Ushers, Mrs. Mattie Morton, chairman.

Have You Read— Three-Travel Books Down the Tiber and Up to Rome (Eberlein, Marks, and Wallis) The adventures of three chaps who navigate the Tiber in one of those pneumatic rubber boats. Fairly interesting, but nothing exceptional. After a very well done beginning, humorous, intriguing, we have, in my opinion, just another book. But I may be wrong. There is another point of view. If you want to read something about the scenery, the architecture, the geography of rural Italy, and if you are interested in the actions, the adventures of travelers, then, by all means read the book. Some fine pencil sketches by Frank A. Wallis one of the authors, quite adequately illustrate it. The beautiful and spacious home of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Stewart on W. Washington Street was the setting for a delightful birthday party honoring the birthday of Mr. J. W. Freeman of Los Angeles. The house throughout, was profusely decorated with Autumn flowers.

He delivered two very impressive sermons Sunday at the Carter Memorial church and conducted the quarterly Conference Monday night. Rev. Flutcher is giving himself unreservedly to the spiritual and temporal advancement of the church and deserves the unqualified co-operation of all the pastors and churches of this District. The long talked of Baby Contest sponsored by the Willing Workers club of Carters Memorial church came to a close Tuesday night with a gala revue of little folk in bright costumes, portraying the various characters in "Mother Goose Rhymes." The revue was under the direction of Mrs. Zella Mansfield and Mrs. Hazel Marshall. A large crowd witnessed the splendid affair.

AT THE CHURCHES Logan Chapel — Regular services were held at Logan Chapel Sunday. Rev. A. R. Simpson, minister, for the fourth year. Rev. Simpson was returned to his charge to the gratification of the church membership. Calvary Baptist, Crosby and Julian Streets—Rev. X. C. Runyon occupied the pulpit at the morning service, speaking most interesting to a large congregation. The Young People's Meeting in the afternoon and evening service were well attended. The pastor, Rev. J. H. Brown in the pulpit. Weekly services as usual. C. M. E. Church—The C. M. E. church has a new pastor, Rev. Ed- Bethel A. M. E. Church, 1647 Front Street—Sunday was Men's Day and was a success beyond expectations. At 11 a. m., Rev. J. H. Brown, pastor of Calvary Baptist church, preached a most eloquent sermon. The men's choir with Mr. Melvin White at the piano, furnished wonderful music. The evening services climaxed the very unusual effort on the part of the men. Promptly at 7:45 p. m., the choir composed of Messrs. Lee Brown, R. Chapman, A. E. Vest, J. Henderson, Geo. Thompson, I. Wooden, Dan Badgett, choirist, marched in from the pastor's study, singing, "Holy, Holy, Holy." After the opening song, prayer was offered by Rev. Henderson; scripture reading by the Pastor, Rev. X. C. Runyun; Dr. Calvert, master of ceremonies, took charge of the program, which was as follows: Paper, "Does the Church of Today Meet the Needs?" by Rev. Atkins. His address was clear and convincing. Tenor solo, Mr. A. E. Vest, which was well rendered. Paper, "Does the Church Pay" by E. Ambers, showed much thought and careful preparation. Ductt, Lee Brown and J. Henderson, was well received. Paper, "Man's Duty to the Church" prepared by Mr. James Tate, read by Mr. M. White in the absence of Mr. Tate. Should men adhere to the duties set forth in this very excellent paper, the churches would never lack support. Solo, "Looking This Way" was sung surprisingly by Mr. Geo. Thompson. Reading, "Teach Me to Love," with musical accompaniment so pleased the audience that Mr. Alvin Denny, reader was forced to bow his acknowledgement to the hearty applause. Mr. I. Wooden in his clear baritone voice sang, "Held by His Hand" with the choir joining in the chorus. Mr. Ware, editor of the New Day Informer, a very readable new journal spoke very interestingly on child welfare and the mission of his very recent publication. Invitation for membership, the appeal for a very liberal offering by Officer John Cloud and Mr. Sheldon. First A.M.E. Church Oakland, Calif First A.M.E. Church Oakland, Calif Last Sunday, the clouds hung low and the rain came, but the crowd came not; nevertheless, in Rev. Scott's sermon were the same ardent and sincere appeal to man to repent and be saved. The rain prevented two of the participants from appearing in our evening program. However, Mrs. Frank Howard read a very, very good paper on "Thanksgiving Day." This occurred just before the sermon. Its appropriateness and the wide range of thought that it produced, doubtless, caused Rev. Scott to talk for ten minutes of it and upon the same subject, and to use the title of her paper as his reference words during his discourse. We were deprived of our directress last Sunday by reason of her illness, but think she will be with us next Sunday again. One can always get a more listening ear from those to whom they are talking when they can say, "I know," so and so. So far as I know, "I know" the entire personnel of the Junior choir, and the guest artists that are to appear on next Sunday night's program. I know much of their individual an collective ability to give any audience a high-grade and choice program. No one could lister to them without delight. They will give a sacred program, assisted by Misses Dean, and Sears, at our church next Sunday, Nov. 23rd. Program beginning at 7:30 sharp. What I may say of them in next week's issue, will be solely for the purpose of informing the many readers of the Recorder elsewhere, and not those of Oakland, who have an opportunity to witness it. We are going to have a big house I think. If you hear them too you can better talk with your friends that were there. "I know." The public is kindly invited to be present. I shall wait until our Christmas program develops to a fuller stage of maturity, before giving out anything about it. You would be surprised to know how much I am criticised for not telling the public happenings and going-to-be happenings of which I know nothing. I will gladly write about the activities in, and of, our church, in my own way, if I personally know of it or if it's made known to me. I do not solice any news, and am free from obligation to anybody. Our church services begin at 11 and at that time it starts. I will watch and later tell you I nthe mean time at which it closes. 7:30 p. m. is closing time for evening services, and it stops. Members please remember! Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 19,—(ANP) Sergeant Hammond E. Dugent, a member of the motorcycle squad, has been held in $1.00 bail for court by Judge Utley Crane in the criminal division of the Municipal Court. The charge grew out of an affair in which Jacob Johnson, aged 38 years, who lives near Lombard and 13th street, suffered the loss of an eye. It was alleged that Sergeant Dugent hit Johnson with his black-jack without uvocation. The officer testified that Johnson had done so himself when he bumped into the steering wheel of a car during a tussle. WM. L.

BACK ON THE FIRING LINE: We are glad to announce the recovery of our veteran writer and producer of "Comments" from an attack of influenza and to know he is able to resume his column. During the absence from these columns of Col. W. J. Wheaton's Comments we have had more inquiries, personal letters, and phone calls than usually occurs when we miss publication of one of our features. Mr. Wheaton has for many years contributed his bit for the delectation of our clientile and for the onward march of the Soaring Eagle, and we want to say we appreciate the interest manifested toward a diserving unit who has ever stood for his county, his race and for the uplift of all human beings. A LESSON IN ECONOMICS: The following editorial clipped from the Chicago Defender is a abstract lesson in the great scheme of economics which as it is headed should be interesting indeed for all people who want to get along. THIS IS INTERESTING—Chicago Defender—In the death of Abraham Wolff, a Russian Jew, in St. Louis last week, there is a fine lesson for students of economics and world affairs. Mr. Wolff, coming to this country penniless 45 years ago, left an estate of more than $1,000,000 at his death. He was a junk dealer. There wuld not be much to say of this case if it were the only one of its kind, or if it were an isolated one. But it is not. Every day we hear of some thrifty person making a fortune out of rags, bottles, rubber, iron, paper—al sorts of junk. Yet for some reason we continue to be the chief supporters of these junk carts and never see the possibility of entering the business ourselves. A close scrutiny of these junk carts will reveal the fact that they do most of their business in our neighborhoods; their shops are always located in close proximity to where we live, and they ply their wagons up and down our alleys and streets from day to day, buying from us the commodities which they market. We save our bottles, our rubber, our paper and our rags for them and receive a few cents in return for our pain. Yet we are not interested enough to find out what they do with this junk or why they are willing to buy it. Here is a virgin field for us. It is a lucrative business that pays large dividends for a small investment. But we want none of it. Today we think of Abraham Wolff and wish we had his money, but we are unwilling to do what Mr. Wolff did for 45 years to get his million. We even think we are doing Mr. Wolff a favor if we condescend to work for him in his junk yard. And herein lies our economic weaknes. What we need are more industries, more places of employment for which we sign pay checks. We need small businesses and large businesses. We need to remember also that all business is honorable as long as it occupies itself with supplying society with those things which our complicated civilization decrees that society needs. Junk comes well within this category. If the man who buys a bundle of rags from you is willing to pay you 20 cents a pound for it, he must have a place to sell it or to use it where it will bring him at least enough in return to justify his having gone to the trouble and expense of purchasing it. Think this over. CARELESS "As safe as in your own home" has ceased to be a phase of reassurance. In its literal sense it denotes a situation not without many hazards and dangers. Approximately 24,000 persons are killed in their own homes in the United States in a year. Until a year ago this death rate kept pace with the automobile mortality rate. More children of school age are hurt or killed in their homes than on the street and school grounds. Falls and burns are chiefly responsible for this large toll. Man is a more or less graceful animal, yet a third of the accidents that befall him while in the "security of his castle" are due to falls. As commonplace and domestic a thing as the bathtub is an instrument of death and injury. Young and old alike are also constantly falling down stairs, over toys and other articles left on the floor, and off chairs, stepladders and boxes. Though accidents seem to pursue humanity like the proverbial jinx, most of those that occur within the home are easily avoidable. A little care to prevent fires, asphyxiation, electrocution and burns, the placing of matches and poisons beyond the reach of children, the lighting of dark stairways, care against slips in the bathtub and from ladders and chairs while reaching high places would greatly reduce the home accident rate. Eventually, the public may regard traffic accidents with as little concern as it shows the high accident rate in the home. Man quickly becomes accustomed to the dangers that beset him. INEFFICIENT— Contrary to popular belief, science proves that the human body is not the most efficient of machines... In terms of fuel consumption and potential energy utilized, even the finest athletic specimens are about on a par with the motor car of the vintage of 1910. Slow-motion movies and scientific calculations show that the mechanical work of running requires three horsepower, but that the runner consumes oxygen at a rate equivalent to the production of 13 horsepower. That gives him an efficiency of 23 per cent. Much of the waste energy is employed in stopping the legs and arms at the end of the swing, in making contact with the ground and in overcoming gravity. Further loss of energy might be accounted for by the terrifying contortions of the runner's face. These calculations shed some light on the gradual displacement of human hands in industry by machinery. Man is more efficient with his brain in saving labor than he is in producing with his hands. Efficiency tests als obear out the theory that man "chokes" that engine, which is his body, with too much fuel in the form of food. An annual wage loss of $2,000,000,000 because of the common cold is a tremendous burden for the nation to carry, but the victim is concerned less with economic loss than with the unpleasantness, the depression approaching acute melan- MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION W. J. WHEATON At the conference of Premiers of the British representatives of India have been seeking the same status of government as that of Canada and other dominions of the Empire. The Maharajah of Bikaner, a ruler of long standing, in making a plea before the council of premiers said "I would commend to you on the threshold of our great enterprise, which is the conquest of anarchy and reaction in Hindustan and the assurance of her contentment and prosperity as a co-equal in our great commonwealth, the words of Abraham Lincoln in circumstances not remote from these: With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us finish the work we are in, to bind up the nations wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and orphans, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and a lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations. But Lord Reading declares that it would be suicidal to give India Dominion status. That there would be internecine strife, engendered by religious fanaticism, that would endanger the peace of the world and retard the progress of civilization. It should also be remembered that India is a source of wealth to the Empire and to allow a form of self government would, in all probability, minimize the contribution. The right of self government was one of the issues of the World War. It was one of the late President Wilson's main contentions. One of the lower "caste," representing India, state that government by native rulers was preferable to that of Great Britian. It has not been so long since the world as a whole seemed to have lost reason and was bent, not only in the retarding of Christian civilization, but upon the anihilation of humanity by wholesale murder. Great Britian and her Dominions, Italy; France; Russia; Germany and a list of the lesser nations, with the United States thrown in for good measure, made Europe a shambles. The only sane peoples, appeared in Switzerland; Holland; Sweden and Norway. With the cessation of hostilities there was a reallignment of geographical boundaries. Mandates were given over "backward nations," and determination was forgot entirely. The weaker became the prey of the stronger. It was done for the "protection of the civilization." After every war the victorious party forms a "benevolent protection." The United States was the "benevolent" protector of the Phillipines after the Spanish American war and has never relinquished that "benevolent" attitude. When Doctor Carter, great Negro chemist and research scientist, answered the questions of a body of scientists as to the source of his discoveries, "that it came from God." he was criticised by a number of the Negro Intelligenzia because he did not give a more scientifically phrased reply. Now comes Doctor Whitney, a world famed scientist. A past president of the American Chemical Society, and a holder of many decorations and degrees, when answering questions as to his knowledge of scientific achievements gave an experiment with a magnet. What supports it? Sir Oliver Lodge says it is the all-pervading ether. But Firminet denys there is any ether. Which is right? Asked the Doctor. The best scientist, savs Doctor Whitney, have to acknowledge that they are just kindergarten fellows playing with mysteries—our ancestors were, and our descendants will be. We move from one theory to the next, and always there is something that does not fit in with the other evidence." "I say the magnet floats in space by the will of God. The magnet ceilers another magnet by the will of God. And no man today can give a more precise answer." So the terse reply of Doctor Carter may be the precise answer. Only the fool is cocksure. * * * * * * * * Dr. Robert Maynard Hutchins, President of the University of Chicago, says, "The complaint has been that teachers are too narrow and specialized. In this new institution we hope to teach the teacher how to teach as well as the student how to study." It has been our contention that there has been too great specialization. The average student, from the elementary to the collegiate, has no originality of thought. The many are "the teacher" says type. As the investigator of Mayors, Los Angeles should be awarded first prize; the hole in the doughnut. If the present mayor escape the mud puddle he will do well. It appears to the onlooker that the investigators are trying to make the outside cities believe that the Negro section, of cholia, the discomfort and the annoyance of this endemic malady which afflicts the human race. Few persons escape at least one cold in the course of a year. In most cases a complete cure is effected within a few days of infection. Sometimes serious complications develop, often resulting fatally. So it is not surprising that everybody is interested in cold cures and the progress being made by those scientists who are seeking the cause, preventive and cure for the common cold. Recent conclusions reached by these searchers ar ethat the active causative agent is submicroscopic virus and that colds are the result of infection and not merely the product of chemical changes in the body... These discoveries hold forth the promise of a vaccine that will build up an immunity to colds in the human body. Until an effective vaccine has been developed the individual must observe the commandments to avoid drafts, wet feet, sneezing victims and that run-down condition which usually ends in a col dor grippe. The Wickersham commission's report holds forth one certainty. It will not satisfy everybody. Was that night club phase, "Give the little girl a hand" suggested by the Venus de Milo statue? Since we usually refer to the earth in the feminine gender the uncertainty as to her age is not surprising. One thing to be said in favor of the younger generation: It doesn't stay awake nights worrying because th cold folks are going wrong. There's a difference. Lot's wife looked back and turned into a pillar of salt, while the modern wife looks back and turns into a tree. If the stipend is attractive enough, a small boy can rake a lawn so thoroughly as just about to eliminate it from the immediate vicinity. Those modern fathers who worry about their air-minded sons would have been trying to fly off the barn roof in homemade planes had the popularization of aviation happened in their youth. SPECIAL ARTICLES which Central Avenue, is the main artery, is the hot bed of vice, and that the Mayor is cognizant of conditions and has shut his eyes to them. We believe the Mayor has been very considerate in his treatment of the Negro element and that does not set very well a certain element which brought their ideas as to how the Negro should be treated with them. The big state of the "big horns" has contributed greatly to the population of the Angel city and they did not shed their mantels of woven negrophobia when they crossed the state line. At any rate; the investigation has shifted from the Mayor's office to the Negro district. It may be that some Negro has been exploiting his fellows. Nevertheless: The element which stands for order and civic decency should see that any violation of the law ceases. And at that; we would not allow a bunch of "Tom Helfins" to bulldoze. * * * * * * * * We used to boast that America held the blue ribbon as the nation with the greatest natural resources. But Russia seems to have the world scared to a frazzle because she is developing resources of such magnitude that she threatens to upset the economic equilibrium of the world. She has mountains of iron ore rich in macanese. Asbestos in such quantities that it has changed the marketing price. Russia is building one of the biggest steel plants in the world. She has made wheat speculators "throw a spasm." In fact, Russia seeks to supply the markets of the world with needs. The difference between the development of Russian resources and the resources (natural) of the United States is, that those of the United States are owned by the few and those of Russia by the many. Wonder if President Hoover has changed his opinion about the people as a whole not being competent to think for themselves? November the 4th should have caused him to change his mind. Remember the story of the lady whose husband carried too big a load "Jack" and could not keep step in the parade? When she was telling a neighbor how nice the parade was she said that the only feature detrimental was, "That everybody was out of step but Tom." Hope is that President Hoover catches step before "32." * * * * * * * * There was, or is, a woman in Salinas who believed in obedience to the edicts of the Bible. So when she felt a desire to commit murder she remembered the Bible verse which reads, "If they right hand offend thee, cut it off." The young woman saw a freight train approaching and when it drew near thrust her hand under the wheels. Sorry for the young fanatic; but wouldn't it be a glorious thing if some of the scandalmongers would have a Bible "fit" and before their tongues could utter the malicious thought of their minds pluck it out? Science has at last invaded the sacred precints of the Vatican. A telephone has been installed in the private offices of the Pope. History will record the event as one of outstanding interest. Aliens and, the ever present, Negro, will hold the spotlight in the coming reapportionment of congressional districts which entitle some of of the states to lose and others to gain additional congressmen. California, according to the new census, is entitled to 9 additional. Which will raise her quota to 20. The claim that the count includes aliens is being made for some of the states who counter with the threat that certain states count the Negro for matter of population but deny them the right of franchise. They must either allow the right of franchise to the Negro of face the alternative of a reduced representation in the lower House. Go to it! The Women's Christian Temperance Union meeting in Houston, Texas, vows political retribution to the party which strives from path of national Prohibition. They claim that the "Drys" of the south and the adherents of the 18th Amendment North will amalgamate and sweep the country. There was a victors dinner in New York given by the women's organization for Prohibition Reform, who declared "That it is no longer a changing of the act, but it is repeal or nothing. Evan money and take your pick! When Governor Young turns the State business over to Governor elect, Rolph there will be a State general fund surplus of $30,564,472.47. Quite a nice little nest egg with which to commence State housekeeping. -:STUDENT EXPRESSIONS :- BY CARL ECHOLS I am thankful For a mother's love. For a single friend Sent by the gods.

A number of representative colored citizens were present in the meeting, among them ebing Rey, E. E. Lightner, Attorney Eugene Jennings, Miss Gladys Harris of the County Welfare Bureau, Assemblyman Fred Roberts and L. S. Tenette of the Urban League Board, and L. B. Granger, Urban League Secretary. An overflow meeting of men and women from all walks of life crowded the board rooms of the County Supervisors last Thursday afternoon to take part in an unemployment meeting called by Supervisor Frank Shaw. The meeting was called for the purpose of As is the case with most public meetings, the gathering accomplished little good in the way of definite results, except the appointment of a county committee to study he problem and to make recommendations to the super- Friday, November 28, 1930 IT SEEMS TO ME By L. B. GRANGER It seems to me that the time has come for black Los Angeles to tighten up its belt a few notches in preparation for a long, hard winter. Now when I make that statement, I realize perfectly well that I shall be assailed by all the professional optimists as a modern Cassandra, prognosticator of disaster. "This depression is only psychological," they say. "Talk prosperity, act prosperity, and prosperity will return." I contend, however, that talk about psychology is all well for the man at the top, for the chap who has money in the bank and who can borrow more if he needs it. With him it IS a matter of psychology, and if he could be induced to take enough money out of cold storage and circulate it in the community, there is no doubt that matters would improve immediately. With most of us, however, it's a matter of economics,—of cold, hard, dollars and cents. We can't spend what we don't earn, and we can't earn if we can't work. According to most students of economic history, the worst industrial depression seldom lasts over fifteen months, and never over nineteen. This current one has already lasted fifteen months, and therefore conditions should begin to improve in the near future. How to improve our situation during the next four or five months, then, is the problem that should concern us. Here is where we begin, figuratively speaking, to tighten our belt, and that belt can be tightened up three notches. These three notches are as follows: 1. If you have a job or when you get one, hang on to it for a long life. If you leave for a better job, use your old one on to another colored person. 2. Those things that you honestly need, do not hesitate to buy, for now is the time when you can get the best values. 3. Give your dollar a round trip ticket! Spend it where you have a chance to get it back. Patronize those firms which are run by Negroes first of all, then buy of those firms which employ colored help. Learn to discriminate against the business man who discriminates against you! If the 20,000 Negroes who live in the Central Avenue area were to follow this advice they would not solve all of our problems, it would, but it would impregny matters immensely. It would at least place the Negro group on an equal looting with other groups in the city. It is estimated that there are at least 300 business concerns on Central Avenue which depend for their existence on Negro trade, but which do not employ any Negro help. Every Dollar spent with these firms is a dollar lost to the race. If each one of these firms were to employ one colored person at $20.00 a week, it would mean a total additional pay roll for our race group of $6000.00 a week. Imagine what the Urban League could do if it had $6,000 a week to distribute among us! And yet, with a little thought, and a little race pride, and a little sacrifice, we can accomplish this easily. Black Los Angeles, take in that third notch! visors. Dr. H. C. Hudson and L. B. Granger were the colored members appointed to this committee. H. Fleming, representative of the Long Beach Labor Council, drew the approval of the meeting when he advocated the establishment of a five-day working week for city and county employees with pay for the entire week, and the employment of extra help to tie up the slack thus created. Mrs. Sprinter Women's Service Club urged the abolition of the age limit in industry which made the difficult for men over forty-five to get work. Mr. Granger closed the remarks of the afternoon with an urgent appeal on behalf of the Negro worker. He pointed out that much more serious than the barrier of age in industry is the barrier of color faced by the Negro applicant. The speaker drew a round of hearty applause when he stated that "This is no time to be thinking in terms of race or creed. Suffering is suffering, and hunger is just as real to the Negro child as to the Japanese or white child. I urge the committee, in its plans for relief of the unemployed, to include the colored workers of Los Angeles on an absolutely equal basis." Los Angeles Forum News The Program Committee of the Los Angeles Forum have arranged a splendid program for Sunday, November 30th. Judge Dailey S. Stafford, Assemblyman Harry Lyons of the 64th District and Assemblyman F. M. Roberts of the 62nd District will be the participants on the program. Mrs. Eva Carter Buckner will recite one of her many lovely poems, "A Plea for Humanity." We are looking forward to a large gathering. For those present will have the pleasure of hearing three of the most outstanding Orators in California. This program is arranged especially for the purpose of discussing the Lynching Evy. Every Negro American citizen should attend this unusual program. Tell your friends and invite them. Time: 4:30 P. M.

One of the main reasons is that the boss linotyper, with visions of drum-sticks swimming in gravy beddimming his toileting, is yelling "deadline," "deadline"! The other reason is that I need a little more tim eo sift out the latest gossip. However, next issue I will tell you all about Dynamite Jackson's fight at Wilmington, of Willis and Spears on the same card; of Vernon Jackson and Joe Rivers who robbed him at Uismo Beach, of Mushy Callahan's comeback and display a picture of the rejuvenated Baby Sal. Colored Lightweight To Meet Guererro For The Title At Main The colored boys in the light weight class are eager to grab the title of Pacific Coast Champion now being held by Jos Guererro. As they battle up through the ranks Joe and his manager are always willing to give the boys a chance. Johnny, Kid Christmas, was the last boy to fight for the coveted crown, losing to the champion. The newest contender is Stafford McCoy, whose manager, E. Biles, is taking almost fathey care of his training. Already he has beaten Leo Dominguez and Ritchie Thomas knocked out Kid Crow in 3, and Norman Kemps in two rounds. He has a terrific walloy, breaking Mickey Sullivan's jaw when they fought. Norman Kemp was carried from the ring on a stretcher unconscious, and taken to a hospital. Carlo Cutis has signed a double main event of two six-round bouts for the boxing card at the Main St. club Saturday night. He has Joe Guererre, Mexican lightweight champion, boxing Stafford in one of the tops and Joe Plmenthal battling Louis Ramos in the other feature. Sandy Casanova ran his knockout string to 10 straight last Saturday night when he knocked out Tom Moore in the fifth round. In the second six-round feature Harry Wallinler took a clean cut decision over Manual Trevino, Benny Whitman re- THREE NEW PLAYERS SIGNED BY COMMERCIAL CLUB DOUBLE HEADER WITH ROYAL GIANTS AT WRIGLEY FIELD, SUNDAY Wes Kingdon, manager of the Commercial Club, has made three deals this past week in an effort to strengthen his club for the coming series against the Royal Giants at Wrigley Field. He is out to toss a monkey wrench in the engine of the pennant bound Giants. Rothrock, Boston American League infielder has been signed to play first base. Charlie Dorman of Indianapolis, for years one of the hardest hitters in the American Association, has been signed to play the outfield in place of Louie Almada who is making a tour of Mexico with the El Paso Shoe Mexican team. Wright, of the Reading team in the International League, will play second base for the Commercial Club. With this added strength Kingdon's club should be capable of A Stratton, the new short stop of the Nashville Giants extending the Giants to their utmost in winning. "Sloppy Thurston, Tom Turner and George Hollerson form a two of pitchers hard to beat if their mates garner any runs for them and it won't have to be many runs at that. With Frank Brazil, the man of many motions, "Fuzzy" Huff, Moore, Dosman and Rothrock supplying the power the going should be tough for the Giant pitchers. The Giants are playing great baseball and are hot on the trail of another pennant. It is a treat to watch this ball club in action. The phawe power, fine defensive stength and marvelous base running. They work smoothly and in harmony. Their base running is daring to an extreme and has been the means of pulling many a game out of the fire by the unexpectedness of its occurrence. Suttles has been hitting the ball murderously. Here's something about this boy Suttles that perhaps some of you fans don't know. Suttles is the sole support of a mother in the East and has been sending the major share of his winter league earnings back to her regularly. We say that a boy like that can't fall, he is bound to get some place. Suttles has forged ahead of Walter Berger for home run honors and is leading with six. White and Wilson are hitting the apple hard and opportunely, and Dixon has snapped out of this hitting slump. Dixon certainly keeps the opposition guessing when he gets on those base paths. He is a streak of lightning. Charlesston and Foster will probably be Mackey's choice for pitching duties against, the Commercial Club. Both turned in a win against the Kelly Qar Club last Sunday. The first game of the double header will start at 1:30 with ladies being admitted free to all games played at Wrinkley Field. Baby Sal Has Made A Real Come-Back Come-backs as a rul eare like s kyrockets to blaze forth suddenly then fizzle out, but Baby Sal Sorio, is one of the few fighters who seems to be on the way to a real come-back. Sal has showed in his steady stream of wins most of them by quick knock outs, that be is the same boy wh ohad the whole country talking a year and a half ago, when he fought Tod Morgan for the title. Every one thought sure he would win, but a bad hernia had sapped the power of that trihammer right that had laid so many opponents low. BEAT TOUGH BOY IN PORTER His latest big victory was when he gave Leonard Porter such a masterful and terrific licking at the Olympic two weeks ago. About Porter's biggest recommendation is toughness, but Sat beat him every pound at will, cut him to pieces, and stopped him i n the sixth, by a technical knock-out when the referee stoppe d the slauhier. He especially made a big hit with the colored fans who love a fighter no fights reardless of his color. Sal gets a main event shortly. Game's Hero Stepping in to take the place of Young Corbett, his only rival, Sammy Jackson, welter weight sensation of the Coast, meets Paulie Walker, next Tuesday night at the Olympic Auditorium. Corbett was to meet Walker, but took sick with a cold, and a fight with the terrific punch Walker proves to have, is too dangerous for Corbett or an other fighter to take a chance unless in tip-top condition.
