THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR No. 29 Organized ON OUR WAGE—E Secretary Thos. J. Donnelly o Federation of Labor Issue Statement of Prime ed Labor AGE—EARNERS! Annelly of the Ohio State or Issues An Official of Prime Interest Organized Labor ON OUR' WAGE—EARNERS! lieve that once these Colored workers were fairly well organized, they would be a valued aid in organizing the illiterate ones who have migrated from the south and give them a clearer sense of northern ideals and the responsibilities accompanying citizenship. While it has been my experience that colored men as a rule make good union men, I do not think that the Colored agricultural illiterates from the south are adaptable to skilled industry and no doubt could secure membership in the unions of the state. The union of the skilled white workers. Negroes reared in Ohio, having the advantage of the public schools in the state, should be adaptable to skilled industry and no doubt could secure membership in the unions of the state organizations chartered by the International Trades Unions. Places could possibly be found for a number of southern Colored agricultural illiterates at common labor and in semi-skilled trades. They would then be eligible to membership in the union of the workers in these lines of industry. Improved machinery has greatly lessened the demand for muscles, but at the same time has increased the demand for men who are trained to use their heads as well as their hands. A great number of accidents in the Oceania region have occurred in past few years has largely been due to the employment of illiterate foreigners from southern Europe, who formerly followed agricultural pursuits, and the employment of large numbers of Negroes of the same class from the south would result, no doubt, in a like number of accidents. Until the factory broken punctual and dependable in attendance, more intelligent and more accustomed to the northern method of living, they will not really constitute an asset of large value to skilled industry.

Dear Sir: In compliance with your request of Feb. 3, '19, I end include copy of official statement on the at titude of organized labor on the sub ject of Nervous Disorder in Ohio Very truly yours. THOS. J. DONNELLY, Secretary-Treasurer, Ohio State Fed- eration of Labor. Upon this subject of Negro labor and the unionizing of Colored men in this section of the country, I am writing you that at this time best results would be obtained, in my opinion, if efforts should be made to bring into the union those Colored men who were through contact and association with the whites they have formed the same viewpoint on industrial affairs, see the same necessity for a sustained effort, have the "peep" and, the rights as wage-carners and as citizens. These men can be taken in by the organizations representing both the skilled and unskilled branches of the labor union and I believe that no grease objection on four hands, especially on the large numbers of both white and colored, distinct locals were organized; but where there are only a few whites or a few Colored men, following the same trade it would be advisable to employ a more same local. A possible objection to a mixed local in communities where there are large numbers of both races employed in the same line of work, is that both elements might vote along the color line upon politics. This, of course, would have a tendency to destroy the solidarity of the organization and to discount its work.

MEEWEN DARE TO DO YOUR DUTY "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us in the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln. Our Brave Soldiers Follow Our Officers Hazardous Advance on Metz Proves A new The Enthusiasm of Our Soldiers Under Commanders of Their Own Blood With the American Army in France, Marseille, France, Nov. 15, 1918: As related in a previous letter, I was with the 367th (colored) Infantry when the order came at 1:45 a.m. Supper, the 109th heist, to take a lieutenant on 302rd at seven o'clock on the morning of November, of Columbia, Ohio, formerly of the 372d (Colored) Infantry, had just reported the night before for assignment to the 367th, after a five months' day in the hospital from a number of serious wounds received in the Argonne. To one who had just left the hospital as a result of almost death, I was told that the battle was not but natural that such gore would inwardly at least, fail to relish being thrown into another battle so goon. But that morning, when the order came to begin the advance, there was not a man in the regiment more enthusiastic and eager to get into the conflict than the battle-carried young back home somewhere in France with the old regiment, and it was, therefore, necessary to provide him with heavy shoes, heavy under and outer garments, etc.; for the morning was chilling. I remember distinctly hearing him reply, in response to the supply officer's query as to what he the spirit of贪慷ness to be in action—to the, and die, if necessary—hils provided all through the ranks of the Colored soldiers, who while not fatalists like the Moroccans and Senegalese were equally as brave and daring, and possessing, as do, the American Colored soldiers, higher in rank than the Germans when the Germans were thinner than the dashing, indifferent-to-fear Senegalese or relentless Moroccans, who believed not in taking prisoners. At 2 o'clock in the day, Captain Four of 372 Win Medaille Militaire;52 CroixdeGuerre --71 in the 371st Decorated ```markdown ``` Two Afro-American regiments from America were brigaded with the 157th French Division—the 371st and the 372d. Both did themselves proud. In the 371st, made up chiefly of draftees of the 372d, four men were awarded the Croix-de-Guerre while some have been recommended to receive the Distinguished Service Cross from General Pershing. Four members of the 372d won the Medaille Militaire and fifty-two the Medaille Guerre. The regiment composed of officers formed the National Guard from the District of Columbain, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Ohio and Tennessee. The morale was much higher among the men of the 372d than the 371st. But the reason for this state of affairs was not difficult to diagnose. Members of the 372d visited and visit the various places of public accommodation in Granges and nearby towns, while the boys of the 371st bitterly complained that despite the excellent record they had made on the field of battle their regimental commander was opposed to giving them the regiment. It was also noted that the commissioned officers of the regiment, all white, did not look with favor on the boys meeting the French on terms of social equality. The following communications received by the regimental commanders of the 371st and 372d infantries from General Goybet will give some idea of how the Frenchmen Noreau and the division conducted themselves in the traches: October 1, 1918 Your troops have been admirable in the attack. You must be proud of the courage of your officers and I consider it an honor to have them under my command. The brave and dash of your regiments, won the admiration of the Mordecan Division, who are themselves versed in warfare. Thanks to you. During these hard days the division was at all times in advance of the divisions of the Army Corps. I am sending you all my thanks and I beg you to transmit them to your subordinates. I call on your wounded. Their morale is higher than my praise. (Signed) GOYBET. October 8, 1918 In transmitting you with legitimate pride the thanks and congratulations of the General Garrison-Duplossis (commander of the Army Corps), allow me, my dear friends of all ranks, Americans and French, to address you from the bottom of the heart of a chief and soldier, the expression of gratitude for the glory which you have received. During these nine days of hard fighting you have progressed eight kilometers through powerfully organized defences, taken nearly five hundred prisoners, captured fifteen guns of different calibre, twenty ninety minewarriers and nearly 150 machine guns, secured an enormous amount of engines of artillery ammunition, brought down by your fire three enemy aeroplanes. The "Red Hand" sign of the division has, thanks to you, become a bloody hand which took the Boche by the throat and made him cry for mercy. You have well avenged our glorious dead. CONFET (Signed) On December 15, 1918, General Gov- sent sent the following farewell letter to the two Colored regiments; IN UNION WE IS STRONG SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Soldiers Our Officers In Metz Proves A new The Our Soldiers Under ers of Their in Medaille roixdeGuerre 71st Decorated "On the 12th of December the 71stst and 372d infantries were replaced at the disposal of the American command. It is not without profound emotion that I come in the name of the 157th D. I. and in my personal life we will our comrades of battle. During seven months we have lived as brothers-in-arms, sharing the same works, the same fatigues, the same dangers.

ASK FOR CIVIL RIGHTS. Large Delegation Calls on the Governor—Oppose "Jim Crow" Cars, Etc. Montgomery, Ala.—Over 200 of our leading proxies of Alabama called on the governor, lecturer, and speaker of the state house of representatives, last week, and asked for our people of this state a larger activity in educational affairs and a reduction of illiteracy; better accommodation on common carriers and the demanding first-class treatment cars, demanding fares; cessation of lynching and mob rule, asking for legislation that will give proper protection to lives and property, and punishment for mob offenders of the law; suppression of the liquor traffic; the right to vote and constitution and that wager and living conditions be placed under a commission with at least one member of the race. President Wilson insists on seeing all persons from the Hun and Bolshevik up to the French and English as having both the American idealism and capacity for self-government. What does the Bolshevik and the ordinary Balkan dweller know about self-government? It would be interesting to see a moving picture of their ideals. The president is a splendid judge of rhetoric, but is he judge of human nature? Ralph W. Tyler.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1919. Grover Cleveland said: Party honesty is party expediency." But that was before the days of "He kept us out of war." We trust any of our readers who hear of the infamous photoplay, "The Birth of a Nation's" being exhibited anywhere in the state of Ohio will notify The Gazette at once. Senator King, Democrat, from Utah, apologizing for our diplomatic secrecies in Paris, says that everything could not be heralded from the house-tops. But then neither should everything be buried in the basement. It is charged that government officials at Asheville, North Carolina, refusing to sell or give great piles of wood to the poor, made a bonfire of it. Probably thought it was the proceeds of the sales of Liberty bonds. The New York World reports Lloyd George as suggesting either in earnest or in jest that it might not be a bad idea for President Wilson to hurry back home—the United States might become Democratic in his absence! What favoritism to cotton brought about 18 demonstrated by the fact that Texas and Georgia were the third and fourth states of the Union in value of crops in 1918, only being exceeded by Illinois and Iowa. Agricultural Ohio trailed as number six. The president has been in Europe almost two months. And during that time his administration has marked time on preparing the country for peace. Less than thirty days of the session of Congress are left, and the policies and laws for readjustment and reconstruction remain undeclared. Why don't someone call attention to the fact that the Wilson administration has so encroached on fields of taxation heretofore left to the states, that Ohio is almost helpless for revenue unless it laps over onto properties and persons already staggering under national taxes and burdens. --- That there would be no lynching at Marion, we were satisfied. That county's officials, as do all others in the state, know what it cost Champagne and Clark counties for violating our Ohio Anti-Lynching law and are no more disposed to permit lynchmurder in their territory than were the several others (in the state) who have had mob demonstrations to deal with in late years. Here is the underlying cause of the dissatisfaction of the American people with Mr. Wilson and his associates in government: Heretofore presidents and their subordinates have acted as though they were the servants, or at least the agents of the people. The present administration deals with affairs as though they were masters. They act autoratically as though they were responsible to no one except to their own sense of self-restraint. For some time past we have had the form of a republic, but it has not been the spirit of a republic. Capt. Charles W. Fillmore, Capt. J. Ed. Dunjill, Capt. Lewis E. Johnson and Second Lieut. Noble Sissle, all members of the 370th Inf., the old "8th Illinois," have returned from "oversas." All are Ohioans and the last three, also Clevelanders. Fillmore and Sissle were originally members of the 369th Inf., the old "15th N. Y." while Dunjill was with the 372d. Now that the 369th has returned, Col. Hayward ought to explain why all of his Afro-American line officers were gotten rid of while in France and although he asked for and received forty replacement officers "overhere" not one of them was an Afro-American. The Central Ave. and St. Clair Ave. bathhouses to be erected at a cost of $45,000 and $125,000 respectively, will be started in March. The Central Ave. bathhouse, to be located at E. 25th St., will contain 33 showers. The other, to be located at St. Clair and E. 67st St., will also contain 33 showers. Both are to have "33 showers" and yet the St. Clair Ave. bathhouse is to cost nearly THREE TIMES that of the Central Ave. district. WHY? Is this the sort of unfair discrimination, Councilman Tom Fleming "stands for"? Is he the kind of a representative Ward 11 should have in the city council? We want to know what our thoughtful people of that ward think about it. There was general agreement among Londoners," reads the account of the president's reception in the English capital, "that no visiting head of a state had ever been given such an ovation as that accorded the American president." Medieval pagentry featured the procession in his honor, prominent in the line being the crimson-coated beef-eaters from the Tower of London, armed with ancient halberds, who appear on every occasion of royal pomp. Following the parade Mr. and Mrs. Wilson appeared on the balcony of Buckingham palace with the king and queen, and received the plaudits of the multitude. Life at the White House will seem prosaic indeed after all the pomp and ceremony, but the people at home will relieve him from it two years hence, and permit Mr. Wilson to renew for an indefinite period the royal acquaintances who, according to censored cables, are flocking to him on his present tour of triumph. SAFER IN THE TRENCHES THAN IN THE SOUTH. St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 13, '19—Private Jas. P., Campbell of the 368th Battalion, 92d Division, who was gassed at Champagne, August 18, '18, passed through here, this week, on his way to Chicago. Campbell arrived in New York city on Nov. 8. He was taken to Camp Pike, Dec. 27. He says that when he arrived at Little Rock, Ark. he was the only Afro-American in the hospital. He was the first to way to the base hospital. The whites were royally greeted by the Red Cross workers, who served food. At the hospital, he says, the only greeting he received was from a nurse who said, "How do you feel now, little nigger?" Campbell's home is in Helena, Ark., where he went after leaving the hospital, but met nothing but sneers from the whites. He decided to leave home and go to the hospital, in that city, a man who noticed his service stripes remarked: "There is another overseas nigger. I guess he knows it all." "I felt safer in the trenches than in Arkansas," says Campbell, "and I never expect to return home." These are the things that "sting" and the anticipation of which doubtless moved President Wilson and Secretary Baker to send Dr. R. Moton abroad. Instead of sending him overseas to tell our boys there "how to conduct themselves on their return home," particularly in the South President Wilson and Secretary of War Baker should send their southern colleagues in the President's cabinet south to tell the people of that section of the country how to treat decently and properly our veterans of the World War who return to that section. NULLIFICATION The country is witnessing a novelty. Ediets of the Wilson administration are being nullified by the states, by eastern states, middle states, western states, by Democratic states and by Republican states. Postmaster General Burleson, for example, sought to impose upon the country unreasonable toll and long distance telephone rates. The Ohio public utilities board, a majority of whom are Democrats, have agreed that the utmost shall be done to prevent the collection of the increased rates. The Attorney General, a Republican, will fight for the welfare of the people of Ohio in the courts. The commission in Michigan has notified the telephone companies that any attempt to put the new toll rates into execution would result in prosecution under the state law. Nevada has ordered the Burleson order disregarded. Arizona has annulled the new rate sheets sent by the Arizona telephone companies. New Jersey has suspended the new rates. Missouri disregards them. West Virginia refuses to obey. Illinois enjoins. Other states, as well, have joined in. To this has it come at last. The people, unable to await the relief that they will get from the incoming congress, have taken relief measures into their own hands. We are not sure that this is the right thing to do, for it may be that unchallenged respect for government in these trying times is more important than refusal to submit to the assinine manifestations of autocracy by the Wilson administration that have at last become unbearable. Nevertheless, it is a remarkable sign of the times when state after state has been forced to protest the welfare of its people, to attempt the nullification of administrative processes out of Washington. To this has the national supine acquiescence in the long-standing autocratic methods in Washington brought us at last—to a questioning of governmental authority at a time when it is dubious wisdom to weaken governmental authority. It is the old, old story of belated thinking. The people will have to wake up. For six years they have permitted themselves to be wheeled by fine phrases. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, FEBRUARY 15, 1919 RUBS NOSE TO CURE PATIENTS SURGEON REACHES PARTS BY NASAL STIMULATION. Noted Medical Men Working Along Many Similar Lines He Avers. Dr. Pierre Bonnier, a distinguished Paris physician, has published an account of a novel method of treating disease. He calls this method "centrotherapy," meaning the cure of disease through the treatment of the central nervous system. In practice the method consists of applying a slight stimulation to certain areas in the nasal cavities, which are in close relation to the nervous centers that control every part of the body. The stimulation is a slight cauterization ordinarily used by throat and nose specialists. Dr. Bonnier reports that in the last six years he has treated 200,000 cases by cauterization at the great Hotel Dieu hospital in Paris, at the Poly clinic maintained by Baron Henri de Rothchild and in private practice. In his book he gives a record of about 2,000 cases, in all of which he claims to have obtained complete cures or great improvement. The ailments related range from headache to cancer. It is interesting to note that other medical men are working along closely related lines. Dr William H. Fitzgerald, a nose and throat specialist, of St Francis's hospital, Hartford, Ct, recently reported a remarkable system of treatment through sensitive spots in the nose. Dr. Fitzgerald produces complete anesthesia of certain parts of the body by pressing down a related area in the nose. By this method he can remove a foot without using an anesthetic, the patient feeling no pain. By simply massaging the area in the nose Dr. Fitzgerald can cure diseases in the related area in the body. Others have discovered a close connection between the nasal cavity and diseases apparently far removed. While studying infantile paralysis at the Rockefeller institute Dr. Simor Flexner and his colleagues found that the germ of this terrible disease entered the body first through the nose, then made its way along the olfactory nerve to the brain and thence to the spinal marrow, where it does most of its damage. The essential feature of the Bonner method consists in applying the cautery close to the centers of nerve control. These centers, he tells us, are in the medula oblongata, the bulb which forms the top of the spinal column, and is located within the skull. In this bulb there is a center that controls every area of the body. Its activity and vigilance are necessary to the life and health of each part. If disease gains an entrance at any part of the body, whether it be an inflamed toe or an appendix, it means that the functions of the nervous centers in the medula have been overcome in some way. The reason why the nervous centers in the medulla can be reached through the nasal cavity is that this is the nearest surface in direct nerve communication with the medulla. All the other surfaces are related to the nerve centers, but they are much further away. All the remedies we now use, according to Dr. Bonnier, operate through their effect on the nerve centers. For instance, when the doctor puts an ice pack on the abdomen to reduce an inflamed appendix, it does not operate by directly freezing the appendix, but sends a stimulation to the appropriate nerve center that makes it try to do its work of keeping the appendix in normal condition. Just under the surface of the nasal cavity runs a branch of the great trigerminal nerve which supplies the face and is in close relation to the medulla. According to the theory of Dr Bonnier, a certain spot in the nasal cavity leads back through the trigerminal nerve to the center in the medulla that controls some other part of the body. "The medulla is the wise guardian of our physiology by which our life is continued from second to second. Every illness is a deviation from this physiology. The medulla of every sick man knows infinitely more than any doctor; it is the great physician whom we must consult. It is the conductor of the medicine; when it goes wrong it is because the medulla is out of order or asleep. Instead of pushing on the wheels of the automobile, regulate the source of power. Wake it up and it will work." says Dr Bonnier. The relation of one nervous center to another explains the extraordinary manner in which one disease changes into another or cures another. Thus, according to Dr. Bonnier, a case of asthma may cure inflammation of the intestines; an eczema will cure asthma, and then change into a headache which will give way to hemorrhoids. which will be followed by vertigo, which will change into nervous prostration. In such cases the asthma may stir up the nervous center which should have resisted the intestinal inflammation, but which has fallen out of activity. The new disease may answer the same purpose as Dr. Bonnier's cautery. In many cases we find that an affection of the skin, like eczema cures some disease of a deep seated organ, especially the digestive apparatus. Pressing Invitation. He="You have a very bad cold."

The troops of the Entente, to whom the armies of the American Republic have nobly come to join themselves, have vanquished the most powerful instrument of ammunition that a nation could forget—the haughty German army acknowledges itself conquered. However hard our conditions are, the enemy government has accepted them all. "The 370th R. I. U. S. has contributed largely to the success of the 59th Division and has taken in bitter strife both cannon and machine guns. Its units, fired by a noble ardor, got at times even beyond the objectives given them by the higher command; they are to be in the front line, for the place of honor is the leading rank. "They have shown, in the course of our advance, that they are worthy of being there."—N. Y. Age. By Sergeant Rufus Pinkney.

It doesn't matter what fuel you burn coal, wood, coke or gas-you must have a CLEAR CHIMNEY connection or these poison gases will pollute the inside air and might cause death by asphyxiation. To be assured of a clear air passage in your chimney see that you have no solid dampers.

He said "you went into the trenches singing; you went over the top sineing; and you came back crowned with victory singing. I am proud to be your commander, you must always remember, when you are home across the sea, the Red Hand Division—the men in the hand that seized the Germans by the threat and made them cry for mercy. In taking the hill named after you now, but which was then shelled by hostile artillery and covered with machine gun nests, you carried out your orders like men. We love you. You are our brothers. We honor you as the heroes of France and will be proud of you when you arrive home." The French commander in summing up the material and prisoners captured by us said that we had taken 600 German prisoners, 700 cannon, and 350 machine guns. "I am proud to have been your general," were his parting words as he kissed the flag, and took final leave from us. He joined, Rev.

U. S.; " "You are leaving us. The impossibility at this time that the German army can recover from its defeat, the necessity which is imposed on the people of the Entente of taking up again a normal life, leads the United States to diminish its effectiveness in France. You are chosen to be among the first to return to America. In the name of your comrades of the 59th Division I say to you: Au revoir, in the name of France, thank you.

"We at first, at Marcuil-Sur-Oureu in September, admired your fine appearance under arms, the precision of your review and the suppleness of your evolutions that presented to the eye the appearance of silk unrolling in wavy folds. We advanced to the line. Fate placed you on the banks of the Allette in front of the Bois Mortier. October 12, you occupied the enemy trenches Acier and Brouze. On the 13th we reached the railroad of Laon la Fere, the forest of Saint Gobain, the principal center of resistance of the Hindenburg line was ours. "November 5 the Serre was at last crossed, the pursuit became active, Prout's battalion distinguished itself at the Val St. Pierre, where it captured a German battery, Patton's battalion crossed first, his Hirson at a height of 1000 meters, where the Germans tried to resist, Duncan's battalion took Logny and, carried away by their arder, could not be stopped from Gue d'Hosson on November 11, after the armistice. We have hardly time to appreciate you, and already you depart. "As Lieut. Col. Duncan said November 28, in offering to me your regimental colors as proof of your love for France as an expression of your loyalty to the 59th Division and our army, you have given us of your best and you have given it out of the fullness of your hearts. "The blood of your comrades who fell on the soil of France, mixed with the blood of our soldiers, renders dissoluble the bond of affection that has held together with of having worked together at a magnificent task, and the pride of bearing on our foreheads the ray of a common grandeur." Not only was each of these regiments, the 369th, 370th, 371st and 372d, cited as a unit for the award of the Croix de Guerre, but 359 individual soldiers from the four regiments received the highly prized decoration. The greatest number of these decorations came to the 369th Infantry, formerly the old 15th New York, which had a total of 169 members cited for the French War Cross. The 370th Infantry, formerly the 8th Illinois, had 66 officers and men cited for the decoration, while the 371st and the 372d regiments had a total for both units of 124.
