Dear Sir: I truly believe that the citizens who are advocating the separation of white and colored school children are trying to make us take a step backward, whether they themselves are conscious of such an aim or not. It certainly is not a democratic movement and indicates an undercurrent of intolerance, of which we have had entirely too many exhibitions during the war when stress and propaganda alike made our feelings somewhat abnormal. This wish to segregate can not be caused by any feeling or real repugnance to be in the same room with colored people because even the most urgent of segregators—the southerners—tolerate and even prefer colored people to take all care of their children and perform all manner of intimate duties in the home and for personal service—so by that they wholly eliminate the argument of physical proximity. Now as to white superiority. We all admit that, I think, as a generally recognized fact. But because my boy is superior to the black boy is no reason for separation. My boy is superior to many of his white class mates but who wants to put him in a separate school for that reason? He may also be the inferior of many classmates—but would it do either him or them any good to separate them? No I want my child to go to school with his superiors—mental, physical and moral—in order that he may receive the stimulus to better himself, but I also want him to be with those below his ability or standard, and for his own good, to teach him tolerance and patience and consideration, so that he will not become that most abominable of creatures—a sinob. My own child has attended schools where there were Negroes—also Mexicans and Indians. I am sure it has not done him a bit of harm and an confident that it has bettered him. He will have to live his life where there are different races particularly our colored people. And the better he knows them the better for him and the more, just he can be to them. Nearly all of the injustice and lawlessness of those "race riots" is due to prejudice bred by ignorance. Separation only intensifies this. I have lived long enough in Oklahoma, Texas, Florida and Georgia to know personally that it does not help to solve the race question to separate them. I believe it makes the problem harder to solve, for how can you separate people who are mutually dependent on each other? We do not want to "southernize" our treatment of Negroes for we do not want our Negroes like the Negroes of the South. We have a good industrious respectable Negro in Kansas; let's keep him so. And if your boy and my boy go WASHINGTON, C. H.—Mrs. Leana Lee has returned from a visit with her parents in Pittsburgh.—Mrs. Roy Madden was in Dayton, Xenia and Springfield on business.—The Harding club has been reorganized for racial work.

Lades' Aid Society was entertained, last week, by Miss Mollie Hudson.—Mr. Thos. Lovings visited his family, last week. through school with him they will not be nearly so ready to help lynch him when they are older. We are having a big run now of intolerance—all over the world—and in our country even anti-Semiticism has shown its ugly mug. It is mostly due to overwrought nerves from the war. So we must guard ourselves against any foolish action while under this pressure, and segregation in Kansas is certainly very foolish and absolutely unnecessary. Mr. Roach quoted a man as saying it would do the white child no good, and would harm the colored child. I go a step farther for I truly believe it would harm our white children by narrowing them. And we can't afford to become narrow if the United States is to regain its prestige for democracy. E. W. R. GREATLY HANDICAPPED By Racial Projudice But Making Splendid Progress Just the Same A. L. Jackson takes up the cudgels for the race, in the February Forum. He says: "As with the Indian, so it has been with the Negro. In most every field of endeavor his demonstrations of ability and fitness have had to be on a racial basis. He has had no other choice. Therefore, many achievements by Negro men and women have been to him not so much accomplishments of talented individuals, but racial accomplishments refuting the constantly repeated assertion of pre-ordained inferiority. For generations the Negro has been looked upon as a predestined tiller of the soil. Any effort to break down this notion was frowned upon. So he tilted the soil in an effort to satisfy ignorant and unscientific overseers and plantation owners, until the day came when, following the advice of 'wiser men', he began acquiring his own land. Today more than 220,000 Negroes are owners of their own farms; 627,964 are renters or share croppers looking forward to the day when they will be owners; $492,892,218 worth of farm-building stock and equipment are owned by these tillers of the soil." ASKS. ANTI-LYNCHING LAW! Ten Men and a Woman, All Members of the Race, Charged With Aiding Man to Escape, Placed in the Penitentiary Little Rock, Ark—Gov. Thomas C. McRae has sent a special message to the legislature calling attention to the lynching of John Henry Lovry at Wilson, last week Wednesday night, and insisted that the legislature give early consideration to a bill which would place responsibility specifically upon any officer who neglects his duty to protect the life of a prisoner. He says talk of a Federal Anti-Lynch law is a waste of words because the several states only have the right to legislate against lynching and mob violence, according to a U. S. Supreme Court decision, handed down thirty years ago. The eleven men and a woman arrested near Terrell, Crittenden county, as accomplices in the escape of Henry Lowry, alleged murderer, from Nodena, Mississippi county, arrived here, last Friday, and were taken to the state penitentiary for safekeeping. PETER H. Miami, Fla.—While at Adam's Key, President-elect W. G. Harding's nearest neighbor is "Parson" Jones, a famous man of the race in these parts, who lives on Porgy Key. The "parson" years ago moved out to this barren key and took possession of it and there he reigns supreme today. The key was originally a barren coral island, but a visitor told Jones there was a fortune to be made raising limes. The old parson puzzled his head for a long time as to just how he could plant lime trees on a coral strand, but an inspiration came to him and he blasted tree holes in the rock, imported a lot of fertile soil to fill the holes and planted trees in the soil. Today it is said his income from limes amounts to between $15,000 and $20,000 a year, despite the disappearance of the one time popular gin rickey. Additional Locals Thus, McAlpin received a telegram, Wednesday, announcing the death Tuesday, of his aged father at his home in Savannah, Ga. Four sisters also survive Mr. Labron McAlpin and have the sympathy of a host of friends. It is said the police broke the clock, a stove, the floor, steps, cut the phone wire, etc., in the raid on the Z Douglass club, early Sunday morning. Seven people, three men, a woman and three small children, were saved from death in the flames by Patrolman Herbert Halliday, one of our members of the Cambridge police force. Bert Williams is to be seen under the management of Al H. Woods in the spring, according to latest reports. "The Pink Slip," a new comedy by Walter De Leon, has been acquired by that manager, and Williams has been engaged for a leading role. Will Vodery will compose the score. The Governor of Arkansas is quite right. Our people (and others) are certainly fooling away a lot of money and time "howling" for an impossibility—a federal anti-lyching law. Some one should so inform Representative Fouts of Morgan County, Ohio. See Little Rock, Ark, letter elsewhere in this paper. Senator Frank B. Willis made the speech at the McKinley Day banquet held in this city, last Friday evening. When he said that Ohio Democratic federal officers who assisted in distributing that scandallous southern Democratic campaign rot (called literature), last fall, directed against Senator Warren G. Harding (and our people), would be made "to walk the plank" as soon after March 4, 1921, as possible he was applauded to the echo just as he should have been heard. Mr. Warren G. Harding's praise of our press, men and the women for the support given the Senator, last fall, is thoroughly appreciated. She is a fine woman—gentle, broadminded, sympathetic and very friendly indeed. We have in mind her marked cordiality, last fall, when our women in large numbers visited her and the Senator in Marion. It pleased us and everyone else so greatly. Marching twenty-nine men to patrol wagons and dropping a 500-pound safe from a third-story window, members of the vice club, early Sunday morning, made their second raid on the Z Douglas club at 3033 Central Ave. When the safe was opened at police headquarters, it was found to contain $26.65 (in the "kitty box"), three sets of dice and $84, all except $15 being in silver coins. A big steel door was torn from its hinges and taken to headquarters. We can understand all of the foregoing willingly give us the credit for but the bursting of the glass in the front windows on the third floor of the building? It seems wanton and unnecessary destruction of property. Entrance was made at the side and thrue doors. The building and ground belong to the Diebolt's, an old Cleveland family. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS KEEPING THE NEGRO DOWN Of the Southland—A Native Southerner Tells How it is Being Done. Not many weeks ago a group of Georgia business men came North to study northern conditions and methods. A member of that group made a statement for publication in which he deplored the neglected opportunities of the South. He promised to return with the will to arouse the South to greater effort. We are reading day by day, however, more news from the South about the "revival" of the Ku Klux Klan than of any concerted industrial or educational endeavor. We are told that the Ku Klux is to spend millions in promoting its plans, while those of us who are southern and who know the South understand, whatever else the representation, that here is the submerging of southern opportunity still further in the buncombe of anti-Negro agitation. wax fat in glorification over the spirit of hate and strife he engenders in his "white supremacy" propaganda. The bourbon-political machine has long maintained itself in the South simply through the political atmosphere created through this race-hate appeal, for raising the Negro question is always the smoke-screen thrown up behind which hides the record of the "shrewd" southern political manipulator. Whoever keeps this issue a heated one, serves to keep it ever pres- What business as well as the entire South needs to know is that it would be far better for the South if all this waste of time and energy in pursuing the Nerro problem were given to educational and industrial betterment of the poor whites and to other lines of human effort. Keeping the southern atmosphere charged and surcharged with this political race agitation, giving so much space to it in the papers and discussions, private and public, to the people who would mean the actual betterment of the southern people, has contributed more than all else to the backwardness of the South. "Keeping the Negro in his place" has occupied the political leadership of the southern states more than rearing the standard of education among the masses, and planning and contriving to keep the political control in the hands of a few bourbon leaders has long been considered of paramount concern to building new industries and opening opportunity for better living conditions for the whites, who are regaled about upholding "white supremacy" year in and year out while some other fellow holds a mortgage on their crops. Meanwhile the Negro goaded and punched and cudgelled, has been compelled to call forth his wits and to appeal to his best efforts; has seen the importance to his children of getting learning and the necessity of better equipping through education and savings for the hard conflict of life. The poor white is all right simply because he is white, so he reasons, and he is a fit subject for the inflaming appeal to race hate when he sees a Negro man driving along the big road in a new buggy to which a well-fled horse is attached and he, poor white, has to go to church in a one-horse wagon, driving a mule with plough-line harness. The aforesaid white population is not at all difficult for a Vardaman or a Helfin or a Watson to captivate with verbal onslaughts against the Negro. From such material as this, of this type, does Imperial Wizard Simmons Public Support Needed. In the past few years throughout the country, basketball has become very popular among our people, especially as the finer inside points of the great court game have been made clear. The game generally, has been played under the surroundings of clean, amateur athletics, in which the spirit of the players has been primarily the desire to win. Here in Cleveland, for several years, a number of clubs have been striving hard to educate our large sport-loving populace into a greater support of the basket game. The 'Pioneers, local champs, have taken the forefront in popularizing this sport, while the Swastikas have trained and trained the Argonauts. The Argonauts Acmes, Keystone and the Colonials, a girls team, have also contributed their bit to awakening Cleveland fans to the possibilities of basketball. In consequence of the efforts of these clubs to put the game on a plane comparable to that as seen in other cities, let all lovers of sport in Cleveland give wholeheartedly their support to the praiseworthy efforts of these teams.

With the race issue to the forefront, with the Democracy pressing that it alone is the safeguard of "white supremacy" and standing for the "integrity of the white race" as against the Republican party up North, "which wants your daughter to marry a Negro," the hourton machine goes right along running the South, while the poor white goes right along running a crop that is mortgaged to some one else before he plants it, and with as little hope of getting out of his industrial servitude as has the average southern colored man of getting the ballot or the real consideration due a good citizen who has made good under trying circumstances and under great hardships. Laws and conditions in the South intended to repress and to strike at the Negro serve all the more in whacking the masses of whites. Too many southern white men are busily engaged in the job of trying to keep the Negro down to make any progress in getting up themselves, and it is the true story of the whole South that it has kept itself in the ditch trying to keep the Negro in the ditch, while this process has caused the colored people to become good climbers in many lines of endeavor. JOSEPH C. MANNING. Some Very Interesting Figures in Connection With It—Our Increase Washington, D. C. The Director of the Census has just issued a preliminary statement of the population of Youngstown, O. April 28, 1920, it was 132,558, comprising 125,602 white, 6,660 Afro-Americans, and 96 others (Chinese, Japanese and Indians). The figures for 1910 were: Whites, 77,108; Afro-Americans, 1,936; others, 21. The white population constituted 94.9 per cent of the total in 1920 and 97.5 per cent in 1910, while our population constituted 5 per cent of the total in 1920 and 2.4 per cent in 1910. The increase in the white population since 1910 was 48,493, or 62.9 per cent, while the corresponding increase in our population was 4,724, or 244 per cent. A Brakeman Honored Denver, Colo.-H. J.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1921. Jan. 28 was the editor's birthday. The three "lost" aviators have less explaining to do than has Secretary Daniels. Why not try enforcing the immigration laws we have without waiting for the enactment of further restrictive measures? Our people are so easily "fooled." Some day they will "wake up" and then what a time there will be. Politicians of the Taft "kidney" and some "Negroes," we could name, will have to "take to the woods." The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations is about to report favorably a bill drawn by Senator Lodge permitting the United States Government to accept the London residence of J. P. Morgan as the future home of American ambassadors. A nominal payment will be made for the premises by the government. The occasion brings to notice once more the deplorable state of this great Government with respect to its foreign residences, of which we have not more than two or three. Dr. Maurice F. Eagan, erstwhile U. S. Minister to Denmark, has recently called attention to the fact that by taking advantage of depreciated foreign currency the United States could purchase suitable housing for its foreign service officials in nearly every European capital. The Republican Publicity Association, after some canvassing of the situation, recently estimated that $15,000,000 would appropriate dwellings for our embassies, legations, and such consulates as required it. The Democrats have put the Government in an awful hole, financially, but it is believed that if an appropriation were made to supply decent residences for our diplomatic corps it would be first-class business management and a matter of great economy in the long run. Why not agitate it? Why should "Uncle Sam" be the only man without a roof to his head abroad? Is he so poor? THE VALUE OF CONGRESS Charles G. Dawes, a Chicago banker, calls attention to the interesting and significant fact that during twenty years, up to 1916, there were only two years in which Congress did not cut down appropriations below the demands of the executive departments. This is a very convincing demonstration of the value of Congress and its faithfulness in protecting the interests of the public. Whether the administration be Republican or Democratic, the tendency of the executive departments is to get all the money they can to spend, and it is Congress to which the people must look for enforced economy. In this connection, it is worthy of remark that it was Senator Weeks of Massachusetts and Representative Madden of Illinois who proposed the plan for a Joint Congressional Committee on Expenditures during the war, the purpose being to facilitate careful examination of expenditures and proposed expenditures with a view to securing economical management. The President exerted his influence to defeat the measure in the House, after it had been adopted by the Senate. Subsequent disclosures leave no doubt whatever that if the Weeks-Madden plan had been adopted, it would have saved billions of dollars of public funds without jeopardizing the prosecution of the war in any respect. Later, Senator Weeks proposed the creation of a Commission on Reconstruction, the particular purpose of which was to get ready for the peace problems which must be solved when peace had been restored. It was the executive power of President Wilson which defended this also, and the country has stumbled along without an plan since the signing of the armis tice. The remarks by Mr. Dawes serve to emphasize the value of the suggestions that have come from Congress, as well as the great extent of the saving effected by Congress in its refusals to grant the executive departments all the appropriations they want. THE DOMESTIC HELP PROBLEM Only Two Per Cent Of Our Homes Employ Domestic Help. CAUSES OF DIFFICULTIES AMERICAN GIRLS PREFER MORE CONGENIAL AND BETTER PAID WORK. FOREIGN YOUNG WOMEN RETURN TO EUROPE WASHINGTON, D. C.—Probably in nearly every city of considerable size in the United States at the present time the problem being most generally discussed, next to that having to do with high living costs, is the domestic help problem. It is interesting to remember, of course, when the inclination is to regard the latter problem one of paramount importance to the American household, that official figures compiled not many years ago from government census returns disclosed the some-what small number of homes in the United States, housewives and homemakers in but 2 percent, of them give employment to domestic help. It might seem, then, this being the case, that undue importance is sometimes given to a problem which affects the few, and with which the masses, so to speak, have little if any concern. But questions of percentages and ratios really have nothing whatever to do, it may be argued by those directly concerned with individual problems, with the inability to find the answer to the question that appears to be more and more nearly impossible to solve. It seems quite natural, therefore, that in the cities, especially, there is, just now, a determined effort, not only to discover what the causes are which have led up to present difficulties, but a remedy for them. As to the causes, two important facts have been disclosed. One is that in the cities of the east, particularly, hardly a young white woman of American birth is to be found in domestic service. Thousands of American women are wage earners, courtesans and foreigners, found employments more congenial and frequently better paid, though the present wage scale in the home is, in many cases, more attractive, when one considers that board and housing are included, than the wages offered in office or factory. The second fact disclosed is that, in the principal eastern and mid-western cities of the United States, young women from Ireland and the Scandinavian countries constitute the major majority of domestic helpers. Since the signing of the armistice, it is explained, thousands of these young women have returned to her family homes across the sea, and thousands more are said await an opportunity to make his journey. This migration United States has virtually ceased. These are the conditions with which the few to whom the problem is vital find themselves confronted. To them is as vital as was the great problem, of the Egyptians at the time of the Pharaohs when the Children of Israel began their jour- through the Wilderness, or the conditions faced by the people of the South in the United States when the Negro was emancipated. Modern history, with which all are familiar, shows how the people of the South have risen above a condition which appeared to them to be unsurmountable, simply by learning to do for themselves many of the things which they had learned to look to others to do for them. Many conditions of life might be worse than this. Advocates of the community plan of living, of course] are ready with a solution of the problem. But the fact must not be lost sight of that there are a great many people in all countries to whom the community plan of living does not appeal at all, and it is quite probable that those who have been accustomed to employ a half dozen house servants must be included among this number. The American family, as a rule, does not choose to live a la carte, as it were. The home touch in everything, but more especially in the products of the kitchen, is appealing. To this great American, the dumb-waiter service from a central cooking department does not offer the solution so greatly desired, any more than hotel life, for the family, appeals to those who seek to enjoy, for themselves and their children, the sacred ties of the home. Like all problems to be solved, this seems to be one for the individual, or the individual family. It cannot be solved at the ballot box, in Congress, on the rostrum, at the club, or in the sewing circle. Perhaps, after all, the way found by the men and women of the South, in the years following '63, a way at first beset by many hardships, apparent failures, and bitter disappointments, will be the way which will have to be followed, willingly or unwillingly, today. BREAK INTO JAIL AFTER BOOZE MARIETTA, O.—Boooze isn't safe here even if it is locked in jail. Chief Bush of Williamstown, W. Va., just across the Ohio river from this city, made the discovery recently when he went to the village jail to inspect a rich haul made by two Marietta detectives and himself. Thirty-two cases of good whisky were on a truck which three men attempted to smuggle into West Virginia from Marietta. The coppers got the n. and the liquor. The letter was held in the Williamstown jail and the men locked up here. But someone reversed the usual order of things and broke into the jail. It's dry now. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, FEBRUARY 5, 1921. HERE'S TIP HOW TO DRESS BABY EVERYTHING EXPLAINED FROM KIND OF GARMENTS TO USE OF SAFETY PINS. Wrap Him Up Like Loaf of Bread, One Valuable Hint. It very often happens that the father is called upon to dress the baby. Sometimes he responds. In such cases it is as well to know the ground plan of "the little stranger" and the combinations whereby the various articles of clothing are made to adhere. In the first place, there is the basic upper garment, or "band." This is slipped on over the head like a shirt. In order to accomplish this hold the child between the knees (your knees), wad the band up so that the hole for the neck is on top. Then quickly slip it over the baby's head. You will then find that it is the arm-hole through which the head has been inserted which is obviously wrong. Take it off and try it again. This time it will be the other armhole that is the lucky aperture. This leaves only one other chance, and you can easily make it three. inserting the arms in the arm-holes is more difficult than inserting the head in the arm-holes, but if you can do it without causing the baby to choke you may count yourself lucky. Then pull the band down nugly in front and back and attack k to—well, if you started from scratch there isn't anything to attach it to yet. This leads us to the basic undergarment. You will find these in a pile on top of the baby's basket. Select one, and, taking it by the upper corners with the thumbs and four fingers, fold it into the approximate shape of a triangle. This will not look right. In fact, it will not be right. The next thing to do is to unfold it, and refit it into the approximate shape of a paper soldier's hat. This will look even worse. You may then fold it into any shape that strikes your fancy. They will all be wrong. Then take the cloth and spread it out on the bed. Pull the baby from the laundry hamper into which he has fallen in the meantime and lay him on the cloth, about in the middle. Wrap him up in it like a loaf of bread. When all the cloth has been used up and the ends tucked in for the safety pins. You will see them on the table across the room. Insert them at random, pinning the child to the bedspread. This will hold him until you can get his mother. Drugs Take The Place Formerly Held By Alcohol. — Opium Traffic Increases It is no doubt rather disconcerting to many people to learn that the commission of crimes may take the place of indulgence in alcoholic beverages by persons addicted to the immoderate use of such stimulants. Yet such is the contention of no less eminent a psychologist and nerve specialist than Doctor A. A. Brill, of New York., Doctor Brill cites cases from his large experience, which tend to prove his theory. He gives as an instance the case of a man cured of alcoholism who shortly thereafter sought the doctor in an endeavor to enlist the latter's aid to extricate him from the difficulties naturally following a crime he had committed. First assuring the physician that he had not drunk a drop, he then proceeded to take the doctor to have his check, and to plead that Doctor Brill intercede with the criminal's father to make good the amount illegally obtained. The money was paid by the father, and the young man did not go to prison, but within a short time he again appeared before the doctor, asserting his abstinence from drink, but admitting that he had embezzled from the funds of the company by which he was employed at the time. Another time the doctor Brill's patients — someone — gave up alcohol, but soon afterward contracted the heroin habit instead. That drugs take the place formerly held by alcohol is not only the opinion of Dr. Brill. Revenue Commissioner Roper is quoted as saying that illicit traffic in drugs is carried on to a notable extent in places where prohibition is in force, and that more opium per capita is consumed in the United States than in any other country in the world. Statistics, however, show that that class is less in prohibition communities than there was in the same localities before such laws went into effect. The man who is not a confirmed drunkard does not turn to crime as an outlet for his emotions, when deprived of his occasional glass of alcoholic stimulant. Dana Pond, American Artist, Presents Work To War Department. PARIS.—An important collection of portraits of allied war leaders has just been completed here by Dana Pond, the American artist, and will be sent shortly to Washington for presentation to the war department as the American War Memorial. The American Red Cross. The collection includes individual portraits of Gen. Pershing, Gen. Bliss, Col. House, Admiral Benson and Marshal Petain, together with a group painting of the supreme war council, showing Gen. Bliss, Gen. Di Robilant, Gen. Belin and Gen. Sackville-West. The big group painting represents the allied military chiefs in the conference room at Versailles, analyzing the time the Germans were driven back at all points along the western front just before the armistice. HOW GOLD LEAF IS MADE. Cast In Ingots and Flattened, Cut In Pieces and Beaten. Gold leaf, of which such large quantities are used by picture-frame makers as well as by other trades, is made as follows: An alloy of the desired color having been formed, the gold is melted in a crucible at a temperature well above the fusion point. It is then cast into an ingot and flattened by rolling between a pair of powerful steel rollers into a ribbon one and one-half inches wide and ten feet in length to the ounce. After being flattened it is an unealed and cut into pieces of about six and one-half grains each, and placed between the leaves of a "cutch", which is about half an inch thick and three and a half inches square, containing about 180 leaves of tough paper manufactured for the purpose. This is beaten on for about twenty minutes with a seventeen pound hammer by which the gold is spread to the size of the "cutch." Each leaf is then taken out and cut in four pieces. These are put between the leaves of a "shoder" four and a half inches square and three-quarters of an inch thick, containing about 720 skins which have been worn out in the "mold" or finishing process. The "shoder" requires about two hours beating with a nine-pound hammer. Each leaf is again cut in four pieces and placed between the leaves of a mold, composed of about 850 of the finest gold-beater's skins, five inches square and three-quarters of an inch thick, the contents of one "shoder" filling three molds. The material has now reached the last and most difficult stage of the process. During the first hour the hammer is allowed to fall principally on the center of the mold. This cause --- OUR LESSON We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that we will be benefited by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours—George W.

People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake." A PRIVILEGE It is a privilege to fearlessly stand for the right— Not a sacrifice, even though you go down. They count not the cost, who fight the good fight, And unflinchingly face the sneer or the frown. Joseph C. Manning.

Gillespie as an assistant police prosecutor. No member of the race has been appointed an assistant county prosecutor, or to places in several other counties, as promised at that meeting in the Central-Marion Bathhouse during last fall's campaign.

It obtained a man from a downtown hotel, stamped the title of assistant general manager on him and informed the waiters he would control their future destinies. They objected and just before noon Saturday went on a strike. The house committee went into session to seek a solution of the difficulty and was still meeting late in the afternoon. Strange sights were witnessed in the dining hall at noon. Important, dignified members were bustling trays in from the kitchen in the most approved form while the regular waiters were nowhere to be seen. "Yes, its settled—the strike; was settled, last Saturday," so a girl at the club 'phoned, Wednesday. "The Grande Ball Militaire" in honor of Cleveland's returned soldiers at Pythian Castle, E. 55th Street, between Superior and Payne Avenues, Feb. 21st. Boydston Post, No. 89, American Legion—Adv. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, FEBRUARY 5, 1921. PRIME SPORT NEWS PRIME SPORT NEWS A. H. DORSEY. Inspired by an earnest desire that the new Cleveland entry in our baseball league should start off with the "best foot forward," President Geo. Tate has entered into negotiations looking to securing the services of Jim Taylor as manager of the local club. Taylor, while a veteran of the ball field, is still full of the "spark of youth," and his work at third base, the past two seasons for the Dayton Marcos, both at bat and afield, has been the sensation of the western circuit. "Jim," as field captain of the Daytons, has been particularly successful in developing young players and is very popular with his teammates, who are always willing to "work their heads off" for him. Speaking to the writer the other day, Mr. Tate said: "If I secure the services of this 'wise old owl,' as I expect to, I consider the success of our team assures, for in my opinion neither of our two greatest managers (his brother, pepper C. I. Taylor or 'the old master,' Rube Foster) have anything on Jim in knowing the finer points of the game or ability to get the best out of his men." The fast Pioneer five got off to a flying start in the local basketball league, last week, easily winning two games through superior team play. Last Thursday, an interested crowd at the Hiram House, saw them defeat the speedy Lone Stars, 47 to 17, Capt Miser and Witsh features with sensational work. Last Saturday, they won the Edwards and Reed showing a game that brought the spectators to their feet. 6. "Fitz" Pollard's Work Stars Los Angeles, Cal.-A crowd of five thousand, last week, saw the Akron O., eleven beat the Conn All-Stars, 12 to 7, in a game full of spectacular features. "Fitz" Pollard was the pivot man in a sensational Akron forward pass in the first half, the ball traveling fifty-five yards from the point where first thrown. The second Akron touchdown was just as brilliant. From the 25-yard line on one side of the field, "Rip" King sent a forward pass to Pollard on the extreme other side. The latter, rushing at break- neck speed, went high in the air as he neared the goal, with a Conn man on his back. In the last half the coast men stopped the Ohioans dead in their tracks. Seeks Chicago Colored Team Chicago, Ill.—The new Continental baseball league contemplates invading Chicago, it was learned, when a letter was received from Secretary Geo. M. Riley, inviting the American Giants, a colored professional team, to join the circuit. The letter stated that two strong colored teams had joined, the Boston Tigers and the Knoxville Giants, and two more colored teams. The letter also noted that the Giants are owned by George Scholving and own the grounds at 39th St., which were the old home of the White Sox. Los Angeles, Cal.—A sensational ninth inning rally by our fast Lincoln Giants caused them to nose out the All-Stars, the other day, in a thrilling game, 2 to 1. "Slim" Love, hurling for the Stars, had the Giants eating out of his hand until the ninth, when the Colored lads refused to be denied and, with the aid of three slashing drives, put the game on ice. The next day, "Mountain" Hubbard of the Giants applied a whitewash brush to the star-leaguers and beat Bryon Houck, 6 to 0. Centerfielder Thomas of our Giants pulled a "Tris Speaker" by making five wonderful catches. Pioneers Win "Slim" Love Beaten Ralph Moore, who made a wonderful impression pitching for the Tate Stars, several years ago, blew into town the other day looking hard as nails and declaring he was all ready to start. "Gabbie" Milliner, said to be the fastest man, who ever wore ballshoes among our players, died of the great white plague in Denver, last week. The St. Louis Giants will start their southern training trip, March 14, playing twenty exhibition games in the South, opening at home April 24. They have signed Hewitt and Charleston, called "our Ty Cobb." A local colored lad, Williams, was captain of the Addison Junior High team, which won the scholastic soccer championship, last season. A fast game is promised, this Friday night, when the speedy Acmes meet the Akron five at Longwood Community Center, E. 35th St., preliminary to a dance. The Pioneers promise to "bump off" the Argentines again, this Friday night, at Longwood school. "Kid" Norfolk will meet "Pinky" Lewis at Madison Square Garden, Feb. 18, as a semi-final to the Bill Brennan-Bob Martin scrap. J. R. Vee, last year's manager of the Tate Stars, who has been very efficiently acting as representative of the Tate Baseball Co., has been named as its business manager for the coming season. Cleveland's Afro-American population has increased 308.1 per cent. in the last ten years, while the corresponding increase in the "white" population has been but 38.1, according to figures made public by the census bureau at Washington, D. C., Wednesday. The "white" population of this city, as compiled in the last census, is 762,005 and our population 344,743, of all other races, including men, women, and children, as numbered at 362. The "white" population in 1910 was 551,925 and the number of Afro-Americans, 8448. Figures show the "white" population now constitutes 95.6 per cent. of the total, as compared with 98.4 per cent. in 1910. Our population makes up 4.3 per cent. of the total at present, as against 1.5 in 1910. The census figures show there are 413,253 males in the city and 383,588 females. The total Afro-American population of Cleveland, as announced by the U. S. census in 1910 and 1920, should have been from four to six thousand in excess of the figures announced. Hundreds, yes thousands of our people, for example, and others "overlooked," by the census enumerators. It is also true that between five and ten thousand have returned South, since the middle of November last, owing principally to lack of employment and reduced wages. It is interesting to note the fact that Cleveland, last year, had over two thousand more Afro-American residents than Charleston, S. C., that city being credited with only 32,292. There is something of value at The Gazette office for Mrs. Lydia McKenney, former Mrs. Lydia Willis. This lady has lived at various points in Ohio—Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus and Cincinnati—or has visited them for short or long periods. Mrs. Willis-McKenney had relatives in Indianapolis. Any person having knowledge of her greatly by writing the editor of this paper immediately. (Race newspapers, please copy.) GOD BLESS MEDIOCRITY. its Importance Often Overlooked By Efficiency Enthusiasts. Of all Mother Nature's gifts to man, mediocrity is the least appreciated and the oftesten rejected by those to whom it is bequathed. Yet what a blessing it is—the real savior of the world! For can you conjure up a picture of what this world would be like if people only by geniuses? No haircuts, no shoe-shines, no good-grooming-in-general, with all men pro-whiskered and all women anti-fashion. And no loose change for the "movies" and the roof-gardens—if such things existed. And there would be no critics, for only the mediocre mind can demolish the masterpieces of the genius. And there would be no children—only infant prodigies who at birth could pass an examination in eugenics. No toy factories would flourish; no juvenile games be played, for the young would devote their time to the fine arts. And there wouldn't be garrets and basements enough to go around, and no people commonplace enough to build more. Which brings to mind the ordinary word of the world, and the question, "Who would do it?" For the genius couldn't stop his "creating" to measure off ribbon, sell pants, or cut steak. Neither would he know how to raise the corn to feed the steer for beef, nor how to grow the wheat for bread. And there would be nothing for the heavy-headed philosopher to philosophize about if there were not mediocre folk to keep things from going to the— So, after all, this merry old world owes her prosperity—and other conditions—to Medicority.

Colored voters are much concerned now because our women have the franchise and they are not afraid of law. They are not afraid of the rights. The colored men of the south have accepted disfranchisement as their portion and it will be [Name] Dr. William A. Byrd. sometime before enough manhood gets into their spines to cause them to fight for their rights. Colored voters of the North and middle West have the power to bring about reforms through their votes. Under normal conditions, our voters can swing the vote in our states in the East, North and middle states. These states are the most powerful states in the Union. Republicans of color have the right to demand that their brethren of the south be given their rights. The Republican party is the "ship" and we demand that our race be taken on this ship in the south as well as in all other portions of the country. Have we manhood and vision enough to stand together and bring this about? Self-appointed delegations were going to Marion and are even yet reaching President-elect Harding, imploring him to refuse to appoint colored men to office anywhere in the south where southern Democrats may object. Chief among these assaultors of the liberties of our people of that section, is Ex-President William Howard Taft. Southern colored people helped to nominate Mr. Taft when he was running for the presidency the first time. It was the turning away of our people of that section from Mr. Roosevelt in 1912 to Mr. Taft that gave him the opportunity to spite of the loyalty or southern colored people to Mr. Taft, during his political career, he now becomes the chief advocate of depriving them of their just rights at home in order that he might curry favor with southern Democrats that did all in their power to defeat him and every other man that has run for the presidency on a Republican ticket. Base ingratiate on the part of William Howard Taft and his betrayal of the confidence of our people is in keeping with his betrayal of the Republican party that refused to re-elect him in 1912. Others beside Mr. Taft have joined him. It is a crush to keep our men out of office. Their argument is ignominiously fallacious. Southern whites are no better than the whites of the rest of the country. In fact they have been the cause of this error of our men if our men may hold office north of Mason and Dixon's line, they are also entitled to hold office in "Dixie" and this irrespective of what any other person may say. If the colored man is an offence to white men of the south why should he not also be to white people in the south? Does the constitution of the nation limit our men in holding office to certain sections of the country? We think not. The south is Democratic for the most part and those states that have gone into the Republican columns in the south did so because our vote placed them there. Fair-minded white men voted with our men to make Maryland, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Tennessee Republican. Our vote was doubtless the larger factor in that vote. Where is the sense of justice or right which is lacking in these men who advocate this exclusion program? Why should Mr. Harding as president do violence to the rights of our men in order that he might satisfy the unjust and undemocratic position of a portion of this country which is known for its brutality toward our people? There should be as just a distribution of offices in the south in all other parts of the country. Southern Democratic whites do not deserve any consideration in these matters, and if southern white Republicans become so unjust to seek to deprive the colored voter of the fruits of his victory they should taught a lesson now they will never leave them in office where they will never found competent colored men and women to fill offices they should re-earn their appointment upon the same grounds as other appointees receive theirs Efficiency should be the test for all. The National Committees from each state, with the Re- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, FEBRUARY 5, 1921. publican Senators and Congressmen, should decide this matter of appointments with Mr. Harding. An efficient man or woman of our race is just as worthy and fit to hold office in the south as is a white man or woman. Both are on the same level in the government and its offices. The time has come when our people of America will not sit idly by and see their people mistreated in the south and keep their peace. We are going to fight for the unbridged rights of the race everywhere. As American citizens we recognize no superiors. No race or people are better than we in matters of government. When it comes to fighting for this country no race's will not sit idly by and see their people and we may add more willingly. In times of peace we are determined that no race shall receive more of the benefits of this government than we. And we only want our share. We are not hogs to the extent that we desire to root out other peoples and deprive them of their rights and privileges. We are also determined that the south shall be again a place where life is safe, property secure and the rights of this government to establish law and order in the south but so long as men like William Howard Taft and his ilk go around advocating the traitorous policy that he is now fathering, the south has hopes of continuing the race and we are not counted as much as cattle. We resent interference in our states by any one who does not vote in the states. What we need in the north we ask for our brethren in the South. We have confidence in Warren G. Harding. We do not believe he will smite the hands that fought for him in the November election and reward the base cowards who attempted to defeat him by raising the race issue. It has become an obsession on the part of certain cowards to advocate that any damnable thing be given or done to our people. The "justification" of their vicious policy is, white people may object to our people holding office. White people who object to an election, colored men hold an office that is his by merit and because of his party relations, don't deserve the consideration of fair-minded people. Only the dastardly coward will try to inaugurate such a policy at this time. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. THE SOLID SOUTH STILL HOLDS THE NEIGHBOR'S DUSSIL UNDER FOOT It is a sad commentary of the times that a former President of the United States can publicly give sanction to southern chicerian and injustice, as Mr. Taft does in a recent article on "The Negro in Politics." Mr. Taft still labors under that old delusion that the solid South can be broken up by catering to "illy-whiteism." Hayes tried it and failed. McKinley tried it and failed. Mr. Taft himself tried it and failed. The opportunist always will fall in the end. Mr. Taft once said that the new state constitutions in the South indicated a turn for the better. Those constitutions are all violatons of the spirit of the constitution of the United States. Nobody denies that the intent of the framers of the new constitution guarantees the Negro. Will Mr. Taft argue that to make stealing legal means to make it moral? We live under a government which stand supposedly for fair play, for equality of opportunity, for a man's chance for a man. There are some good white men in the South, but they are like trees on a Sahara, and they cannot modify the severe general judgment of the section. And some day men like Mr. Taft will learn that temporizing wins nothing. We must take a stand for right, for justice, for fair play, for the constitution, and stand by it. The ideal must not be lowered, but rather the people raised. If we would spend a little money trying to enforce the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, our moral sense would be better satisfied. Mr. Harding will make a grave mistake, a mistake which will most assuredly be resented by the Negro. He pays to Mr. Taft's advice on the race question. It ill becomes a former President of the nation to apologize for past injustice and pave the way for future injustice to 12,000,000 of his fellow citizens—Xenia (O.)

Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of of legal age, and then be distributed among the children, where share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6). Section 6283.

The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the lynching occurred unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.)

Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen exceeding the minimum requirements, all reasons are granted without race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay no money, dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or a son aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it in the courts.
