refused to enter the school build

The pupils were orderly, but
did not fail TO make their protest
known to the teachers and officials
of the schools. Many parents have
absolutely refused to send their
children to the Hill district public
schools, owing to the fact that
most of the pupils attending the

PANTAGES THEATRE
FINED FOR DRAWING
THE COLOR LINE

The question whether theatre
management can exclude from par
qnet seats colored persons was de-
lermined August 5, by the super
ior court of Los Angeles county
in favor of the plaintiff in the case
of G.. o. Cochran ia colored MANI
against A. Pantages, proprietor OF
the Pantages, theatre, Los Ange-
les.
The facts are substantially as
follows, to wit. On May 20, 1911,
Mr.. Cochran, accompanied by u
young colored lady, went to Pan
tages theatre, purchased two re-
served seat tickets, and when re
presented them at the door he was
refused admittance to the first
floor on the ground of color.
When he complained to the ticket
seller, the latter offered to give
him seats upstairs or refund his
money, both of which Mr.. Coch
ran refused. Suit was filed by
Cochran against Pantages May 16.
1912, for damages in the sum Of
$1,000. Suit was brought under
certain provisions of the civil
rights law of the state of California
which prohibits Discrimination,
ETC., in theatres and other places
of public amusement and accom-
modation. After stubbornly con-
tested trial which lasted two day
(July 1924, the case was submit
ted to the court for further con.
sideration and decision. On the
5,h the count gave MIR. Cochran
Judgment and awarded him dam
ayes in the sum of $50 and costs

and acquired, the Negro has done
pretty we'll since the day that he
was set free.
The fact that the Negro is dy-
ing in such large numbers of tu-
berculosis and other still more
frightful diseases is, of course, due
to his ignorance and to other reas-
ons for which he is largely respon-
sible, but we cannot forget that it
is also to be charged to the fact
that he is compelled to live in the
worst sections of our towns and
cities often without drainage or
sewerage or garbage service, with
out water within a reasonable dis
tance and scarcely any of the SAN
itary conditions in house or yard or
street which whites consider an
absolute necessity. We drive the
worst forms of immortality into the
Negro quarters and then curse the
Negro because of his moral weak
ness. We subject him to the Sc
vorest test of our city life-physi-
cal, moral and political-and then
cynically declare that the ''nigger"
is no good anyway. Let's give him
a square deal-a mans chance.
Neither race hatred nor mawkish
sentimentality will settle this very
delicate question. The South can
not settle it alone, and tn e North
cannot do the work for the South.
The North and the South, the city
and the country must ia ckle the
thing together, for this is Nation.

FACTS ABOUT
THE NEGRO

thousand. 1t will be seen that
not only is the death rate among
Negroes nearly twice as great as it
is among whites, but that the
death rate among Negroes is in
creasing, whereas it is decreaing
among whites.
In the matter of birth rates, all
the facts are against the Negro.
Absolutely reliable data is not
available but taking the number
of children in the United States
fomales between the ages of fifteen
to forty four years of age, we ar
rive at the following conclusions:
In the United States as a whole
there were in 1880 to every 1000
white women $50 children; to ev-
cry 1000 Negro women Gnclud-
ing Indians and Mongolians) 765
children. In 1900 there were to
every 1000 white women sos chill
dren, and to every 1000 Ne
gro women there we're 5S5 chill.
dren. While the birth rate has
greatly declined for both races in
twenty years, it has declined more
rapidly among Negroes than
whites, namely: Seventy-eight
per thousand whites, and 174 per
thousand for Negroes.
These figures would seem to in
dictate the continued supremacy of
the white race-if present tenden-
cies continue. But this fact con-
tinues to stare us in the face; the
Negro is actually increasing in
numbers, rot as fast relatively as
is the whites, but we may as well
make up our minds that the Ne
gro is here to stay. It's simply a
question as to whether he will be
good" Negro, OF "bad' Negro.
And the answer to this question
depends as much upon tie whites
as it does upon the blacks. We
should also consider it a finality
that the white race and the Negro
race will rise or fall together. 1t
is impossible to have nation part
free and part slave; it is still more
impossible to have at the same
time in one country, morally and
physically decaying race, and
surviving race untouched by the
dying races fate.
If we could definately settle this
it would save us from lot of fab.
by thinking and worse scheming.
The Negro will never return TO AT
RIGA to establish a Liberian Re.
public. He is the only man in
America who was brought here
against his will. For 250 years
there was Systematically expunged
from the Negro race, the best quail
tiles which fit "a man for citizen
ship in democracy. Considering
the lack of opportunity, the advice
of fool friends, and the inheritant
limitations which are both natural

WHITE MAN TURNS BLACK

Mr.. S. A. Hendricks, st. Louis.
Mo, has been growing black for
the past five months, and now he
is as black as any man in the jun
giles; this disabuses the theory
that black men are the SONS of
Ham, but have turned dark by 9th
er causes, other than from climatic
condition or environments. This
must be a hard pill for Mr.. Hen
