Master I. Robinson paid an official visit to a joint meeting of Golden Gate and Aerial lodges G. U. O. O. F., on May 22, at the lodge room of Aerial lodge. The members of both lodges turned out in goodly numbers to meet the head of the order, who was received with customary honors of his station. after which he took the chair, and when routine business had been transacted, he proceeded to address the members, advancing several important propositions. He then invited an expression of sentiment upon the various subjects affecting the order, and they came thick and fast. The old veterans fired barrages of questions, and no doubt the G. M. has an idea where the two lodges stand on the old Odd Fellows' Home, and the Endowment. His recommendation on a scholarship met with hearty response and the fraternal congress has merit, although this is not a new idea. Brother Robinson is of pleasing personality, and is a hearty Odd Fellow with no frills At conclusion of the meeting all repaired to the small hall, where a nice collation was served. On the whole, the visit was enjoyed and the lodges will be benefited by the visit.

Y Read th.e the Western --- Outlook --- Subscribe Now Jack Johnson Again Kansas City, Mo.—An unusual amount of interest was taken in the appearance of Jack Johnson, former heavy-weight champion of the world when he appeared before an audience of M. E. churchmen here last week, and delivered an address on temperance. "I want you to know," he said, "that I am absolutely against beer, whiskey and all intoxicating liquors because I do not believe that liquor helps the human body at all." After extensive applause Johnson said he felt as well at 50 as he did when he was 18, and he believed that his good health was due to his abstinence from liquor, and getting his rest regularly. --- Sunday afternoon the N.A.A.C. sponsored an open-air programme at Roeding park, arranged by Ruth Hannibal, consisting of two pianas solos by Misses Menthoma Thurman and Alberta Ross; vocal solo, Jessie Morris; address, Rev Hughes, and selection by Las Serenadas club.

ADVERTISE IN THE OLDEST PAPER ON THE PACIFIC COAST TO GET RESULTS SATURDAY, MAY 26, 1928 EDITORIAL PAGE It looks as though citizens will have to be protected from the guardians of the peace. It is a question whether men who are so ready to use their guns should be entrusted with the authority to carry arms. The University of California has just turned out its usual grist of young men and women who will go forth with the idea that the world is waiting to be conquered. It is too bad that many will be disillusioned when they go up against things that are and not what they seem. To those students whose influential connections will smooth their way to success, the road will not be so rugged. The student of our group who dedicates his life to the high ideals of service and devotion to racial solidity will be the future leaders of the coming race in this country. Let us hope that our young people have visioned the future, and that the foundation of their education has been laid so deep and enduring in honesty and clean living that they may be living monuments to the less fortunate of our group. Discard that air of superior complex towards your fellows who do not happen to have diplomas. Remember, there is such a thing as an educated fool. Avoid shortcuts to success. It were better that you have the confidence of your fellow men than to be the objects of distrust and suspicion. The skyrocket makes a brilliant display in its upward flight, but the stick comes down to earth with the lights out. We can only hope that our students' careers may be successful, with no skyrocket aftermath. Our ministerial brothers do practical politics with the same smoothness that the regular politicians employ. Just imagine—Four bishops to be elected at Chicago in the general conference, and eighty ministers after the jobs! What a field for fine manipulation! Josephine Baker, the cabaret singer and dancer, who aroused the indignation of the people of Buda-Pesth because of what they call the extreme nudity in her revue performance, has added further fuel to the fire by being the cause of a duel between a count and an army officer. This matter should be referred to Senators Blease and Heflin on "social equality." Representative Richard Welch of California has proposed to amend the 1924 immigration act to exclude citizens of the Philippine Islands from the United States. The bill would extend the definition of the word "alien" in the act to exculde citizens of the Philippines. It seems that people are waking up to the fact that alien immigration is a seri- ous menace to the future of this country, and that the time has come to call a halt. We are now entering upon the last stages of the pre-convention campaign. Only a short time when the cohorts of the aspirants for that coveted seat in the White House will line up in battle array Then the preliminary skirmishes will demonstrate the strength of the candidates and their chances. But it is not always best to bet on favorites. They do not always come under the wire first, and it is best to discount the booster's noise. All indications point to the nomination of Hoover by the G. O. P., and of Al Smith by the Bourbons. It is conceded that Republicans will have no walk-over this time. With the unemployment situation the most acute in years, farmers dissatisfied and the oil scandal to face. G. O. P. spellbinders will be put to it to point with pride to achievements and prosperity. The Democratic party has always thrived upon adversity; besides those thirsty souls who believe that, with the election of Al Smith the good-old pre-Volstead days will return. But religious intolerance is going to count larger than many imagine, as religious prejudices are deeply seated, and are not easily displaced. So as it looks, the country is in for a campaign of mud-slinging. Catholics Dominate Tammany Hall New York.—Tammany Hall is not quite 100 per cent. Catholic, states an article in the May issue of Plain Talk. Out of its 36 district leaders, 32 are Catholics; the other four are Jews. It is further stated that William A. Olvany, Protestant and Mason, was singled out for the leadership, and six months later he became a member of the Catholic church. One of his predecessors in the position, Croker, although of Protestant stock, also became a Catholic. To Probe Jobbery Washington. -- The Senate has adopted the George-Harris resolution, authorizing its post-office committee to investigate circumstances surrounding appointment of postmasters. Senators George and Harris, both Democrats of Georgia, had asked investigation of the barter of Federal offices in Georgia, but the resolution was amended in committee so that the scope of the investigation would be nation-wide. For Foal Cut Washington. The Senate stood pat on its postal rate reduction bill and voted for a second conference with the House on the subject. Proposals of the Senate to cut the second-class rate to the 1920 schedule and to repeal the service charge on parcel post packages were reaffirmed by the action. The House would pare down second-class rates only to the schedule in effect in 1921, and it would only reduce the parcel post service charge. COTTON YIELD. 91,103 BALES California produced 91,103 bales of cotton last year, average yield per acre being 340.2 pounds, it was announced last week by E. E. Kantman, the State Federal agricultural statistician. Lower California total was 44,611 bales. Kern county is listed as having highest yield per acre, 464.9 pounds. The crop from 128,000 acres is veen by districts as follows: Sacramento valley, 560 bales; San Joaquin valley, 69,10b bales; Coachella and Palo Verde valleys, 13,120 bales; Imperial and Bard valleys, 8,317 bales. New Record New York.—Commendations are extended by the N.A.A.C.P. to law enforcement agencies throughout the country for praise worthy a compliment in stamping out the lynching evil during the first four months of the year. Notable instances have occurred in Kentucky, Mississippi, Virginia, Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, Florida and Tennessee when lynchings were prevented by alertness of officers, setting a new record in these four months. Secretary James Weldon Johnson said that the organization hopes for a lynchness year. This hope has gone glimmering. Texas breaks the record. Wins Oratorical Contest Washington.—Howard university, Walberforce university, the Morgan college, an. West Virginia institute were represented in the first contest of the Negro Intercollegiate Oratorical League held at the west Virginia institute. A. Franklin Fisher, who with his oration upon "Science and Religion," represented the Howard university, won the first prize of $50 and brought back to the university the league trophy. James D. Carr of Morgan college won second prize Discipline is a necessary evil. A postage stamp must be hicked before it will do its duty. Home Rule O. K. Kansas City, May 16. Meeting the demand for home rule in foreign missionary fields, the M.E. church to-day approved, through its quadrennial general conference, election of bishops by central conferences The action regarded as one of the most revolutionary constitutional changes ever attempted by the church, would remove from general conference power to choose foreign bishops. The vote was virtually unanimous. Approval for selection of native bishops by natives was given in answer to growing insistence from members of the church abroad that they be allowed more voice in conduct of their own affairs Ratification by the annual and live electoral conferences, which will require a year, will be necessary before the plan can be put in effect. Passage of home rule bill followed five hours' stormy debate, in which chief opposition was voiced by the United States delegates. Some predicted disintegration of the church at home, while others foresaw the eventual segregation of the Negro members as a step towards organic union with the Methodist Episcopal Church South, which has no Negro members. The churches spat in 1844 over the slavery question. "Black Majesty" "Black Majesty," by John W. Vandrock, is the story of Henry Christophe, the Negro who made himself king of Haiti. If the story is a wee bit dramatized it is the easier reading for it. Vandersook's own story is an odd one. He was a vounter; reporter in the Southwest and in the exercise of his vocation he was a witness of the lynching of an innocent Negro. The tragedy is de such an impression that he devoted himself to a study of Negro life and character in Africa and the Caribbean islands. Not a champion of the Negro, understand; just a student. Do not overlook anything he writes. It is apt to be good. Open $55,000 Drive Los Angeles. The campaign to raise $50,000 for a colored home for the aged was opened Sunday at the 28th street Y. M. C. A. Need of the home was pointed out by Mary Cronen of the State social service department. The denominational home in Watts, accommodating only ten persons, is the sole home in the State for aged colored persons, it was pointed out—Ex [There must be some mistake. We have a Home at Beulah for Aged and Inturn Colored People.—ED. A. R. OSCAR DE PRIEST AGAIN OSCAR DE PRIEST AGAIN Ever since the death of Congressman Madden, of Illinois, magazine writers, newspapers, and Southern Senators have been featuring, writing and talking of Oecar De Priest entering the White House. In last week's issue Chester Rowell had this to say:— The tentative nomination in Chicago of Oscar De Priest, a Negro, as successor to the late Congressman Martin B. Malden, is a real step forward in evolution of Negro participation in American public life. Mr. De Priest, or whoever may be the final nominee, will be the first Congressman of his race for many years, and absolutely the first who ever entered Congress with unanimous acceptance of the appropriateness of his presence. The others always represented race antagonism sectional conflicts, and the issues of white supremacy and Negro rights. The new Chicago Congressman, on the contrary, will represent a Negro district in which choice of a Negro representative will be taken as a matter of course, and antagonize nobody. He will be taken at his personal value, which is said to be high, and will be the beginning of a new, because constructive, and harmonious, era in the public career of of his race.

The findings of the bureau were read and discussed for the first time at a meeting of the joint committee on domestic relations court of the National Prabation Association in Washington. Terming divorce as the cause or incalculable loss to our civilization the report strongly criticises the present divorce courts. These courts do not make use of the materials they receive, which is a "wastefulness that in an industrial establishment might be the cause of financial ruin." To remedy the problem of family disruption, the committee suggests establishment of a family or domestic relations court fitted to solve problem, and remedy the scottish jurisdiction of present courts, inability to bring parties to court and the inability to obtain preventive measures."
