ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1921 The Editor's Journey to and Visit in Washington—"Wife of His Youth"—Gov. P. B.S. Pinchback -Mu-So-Lit Club-Personal Mention, etc. (Editorial Correspondence.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Mar. 7, 212—Last Friday, after the Gazette had been mailed to its thousands of readers, I took my "grip," which had been packed earlier in the day, and started to the depot. Cleveland's "union shanty"—now only temporary quarters, at last) to catch the 6:05 p.m. (fast) train over the Pennsylvania Railroad for the capital of the nation. In the sleeping car there was quite a collection of Clevelanders, all en route to the same destination, and for the same purpose—to attend the inauguration of President Warren G. Harding and Vice-President Calvin Coolidge. One of the number was the Hon. James W. Stewart, a former Ohio state senator, who proved the most interesting gentleman in the party, which gathered in the "smoker" of the car. We landed in this city at 8:05, Friday morning, the writer going immediately to the home of old friends, Mr. and Mrs. John H. Cook, 2224 6th St., N. W. Mr. Cook, when a young man, lived for years in Cleveland and was connected with the force of "The Old Reliable" Gazette. At noon, he and his most promising young son, Lenoir, escorted the editor down to the capitol of the nation, in the case of the writer, attended several inaugurals in years, gone by. It's simplicity made it unique—so different from the others. The beautiful decorations and buildings, including of course the capitol, and other surroundings, all helped to make it such. At the conclusion of the ceremonies, the editor, in the case of the writer, attended the beautiful new $50,000 building of the Murray Bros., at 920 U. St., N. W. the ground floor of which is occupied by a pharmacy and their fine job printing plant and offices; the second floor, a large hall which will accommodate between 700 and 1,000 persons. The Murray brothers' father was born in Cleveland and his father, a tailor, worked in Freeman H. Morris' tailor-shop which our oldest residents will remember was located on the south side of Prospect Ave., about 75 feet east of E. 4th St. Part of the large brick block, now on that corner, rests on the Morris ground, leased for 99 years at a rental said to be $35,000 a year. Miss Mary Morris, daughter of Miss Mary Morris, one of members of the family will allure the City. Years ago, Miss Mary was the president and leading spirit of the "Social Circle" of Cleveland which was nicknamed "The Blue-vein Society" by Wm. T. Boyd, the well-known Mason who died, several years ago, in Cleveland. Later on, Boyd was admitted to membership in the society, which was the "basis" of Charles W. Chessnut's book, "Wife of His Boyd's Youth," the names of Oberlin streets, etc., were used in the book. For the first ten years of its existence, the Gazette "hammed," the silyl color-line organization and succeeded in "putting it on the toogban" which eventually carried it into "improved" ownership of its Bros. block we went to call on my long-time friends, Gov. and Mrs. P. B. S. Pinchback, 1841 U. St., N. W, this and found him a little feelable but still wonderfully preserved for a man of the older readers will recall that the Governor was elected Lieutenant-Governor of Louisiana during the period of reconstruction, which followed the close of the War of the Rebellion, and served as governor of the state for a brief period during the absence from the state of Gov. W. P. Kellogg. They will also remember that he (Pinchback) was the first Afro-American to be elected a member of the U. S. Senate, and was refused his seat in that body for the term of six years he was elected to, but was given the pay. Mrs. Pinchback is in a little house on the corner of one of her years. Our visit to their home was especially pleasing and satisfactory. Our next visit was to the office of the Washington Eagle, in "You" St., to see our friend, Editor J. Finley Wilson, who was not in. In the evening I attended the "National Negro Press Association Reception and Jubilee Inauguration Ball at Convention Hall," where I met several Clevelanders. Saturday, among the so-called "interest" new home at 1327 R St., N. W. Mr. Robert Pelham, former resident of Detroit and former president of the club, was my escort en route to and from, showing me many other properties acquired recently by members and organizations of the race. Accompanied by my host, Mr. Cook, I called on Prof. Edward Williams, librarian of Howard University; an old Cleveland boy and a native of the city, and was shown thru that splendid, practically new building with its fine collection of books, pamphlets, etc.; then called at Prof. Geo W. Cook's and Secretary Emmett J. Scott's offices on the University campus only to find them out. The institution's fine new brick buildings and other very noticeable evidences of advancement in recent years, have wonderfully improved the appearance of the grounds. Easy in appearance, but hard to find. Prof. Geo W. Cook of Howard University, came with his fine auto and took Mrs. Cook, her son and the writer for a long tour of the city that proved most interesting and delightful, indeed the friends who called. In the evening, Mr. Cook and I attended the Mu-So-Lit's reception. It was one of many, just as numerous as were the "Negro Inaugural Balls" on Friday evening. Monday was devoted to several important conferences and calling on a few old friends. Early in the evening (at 7:05 p. m.) I will leave over the Pennsylvania Ry. for Cleveland. Our host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. John H. Cook, and their talented young son, Lenoir, have given me the opportunity to find a finding if difficult to show proper appreciation. When their daughter, Miss Louise, who is a student of Radcliffe College, near Boston, is home this family is certainly one of most interesting, and satisfactory in its home life, I have ever known. The thing most noticeable, since Friday noon, is the oft-expressed feeling of relief and satisfaction as a result of the change in the administration. The advent of President Warren G. Harding and the exit of Ex-President Thomas Woodrow Wilson was likened to the weather of Friday, a clear, cool, sunshiny and beautiful day, while Wednesday and Thursday were cold, rainy and most disagreeable the southern Democratic Wilson administration and our people are concerned, the last eight years have indeed been "cold, rainy and most disagreeable ones" for us. Among the Clevelanders here are Atty, and Mrs. Alex. H. Martin, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McNaughton, Atty, and Mrs. T. W. Fleming, Garrett A. Morgan and Sidney B. Thompson. Other Ohioans here are Hon. A. Lee Beaty and Jos. L. Jones of Cincinnati; Hon. and Mrs. Charles Cottrill of Toledo. The first annual national meeting of our directors and state leaders of the Republican National Committee in last fall's campaign, held in John Wesley A. M. E. church, 13th and R Strs., Mar. 3, was a success. Mesdames Letha C. Fleming of Cleveland, nat'l director; Victoria Clay Haley St. Louis, director of the division and Mrs. Mary Church Torrell of this city, director of the eastern division. Rogan Uses Whitewash Los Angeles, Cal.-Our White Sox were on a butting rampage, last week, against the All-Stars, "Bullet" Rogan applying a whitewash brush on the Stars with Crandall of the N. Y. Giants hurling, the score being 8 to 0. Bobby Meusel, of the Yankees, alone was able to solve Rogan's delivery. The latter starred with a homer and double. Over 105 Years Old QUINCY, ILL. "Auntie" Jennie Daniels on Mar. 1 celebrated her 105th birthday. Her husband, who served through the Civil war, died five years ago. She has one daughter eighty years old.

BROOKLYN It has been pointed out by various writers that Warren G. Harding is the first Baptist to become President, the first newspaper editor and publisher, the first son of a physician to be sent to the White House. He is the first man to be elected by 7,000,000 plurality and about 6,000,000 majority, in the popular vote. He will be the first President since recruitment day who can attend the states added Maryland and Tennessee. He is the first man to be elected President in three-quarter of a century who was serving a term in the United States Senate when chosen for the greater office. Harding is the first President who was. a member of the typographical union. He is the first President known to have played in a band. And he is the first president elected to the votes of women and men alike, throughout the country: That last point is the biggest "first" of all. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men: The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least displeasure, the feces to dare, not be sent to prison to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

So many responded to the dinner invitation that twenty additional tables were laid in the spacious ballroom to accommodate those who arrived at the last moment. More than 600 members and their friends appeared and Mr. Gilpin himself ended all speculation as to whether or not he would come by being on hand before 7 o'clock. He was greeted most cordially and was seated between Mr. Lee Simonson, who was honored as a scenic artist for his work in "Heartbreak House," and Miss Gilda Veraj, honored for her work as an actress and co-author of "Enter Madame." Other guests included Dudley Diggs, who directed the production of "Burberry House," and Eugene O'Neill. The "The Emperor Jones"; David Belasco, for the production of "Deburau"; Jacob Ben-Ami, for his acting in "Sampson and Delahil"; Lionel Atwell, star of "Deburau"; Margaret Severan, who introduced the Benda masks in "The Greenwich Village Follies," and Fred Stone, voted to be the "greatest all around comedians on the American stage, except Bert Williams. Women at Every Table. Every branch of the theatrical and art world was represented at the dinner, and women were in evidence at every table. There was no ovation when Mr. Gilpin entered the room, but both men and women grasped him by the hand and many congratulated him on his success as a Broadway actor and "tartar". He had previously said he would only "drop in" on the dinner, but it was said earlier in the evening that he would be called upon to make OHIO NEWS e' Gazette's Correspondents at the State ing Each Week—Church, Age, Literary and Musi-ies, Deaths, Etc.

Miss Varesi was one of Gilpin's early champions. When there was some doubt as to whether the league would honor him she wired to its secretary: "If you invite Gilpin I will be proud to sit best him." "If there is any place on earth where, race should not be permitted," she said afterward, "it is in the church and in art. God is God and genius is genius, and race ought not to make a distinction." Appeals for Understanding. Early yesterday afternoon Mr. Gilpin addressed members of the Glivc Club at No. 14 W. 12th St. the "Negro and the Stage." He gave charitable interpretation of the racial attitude toward the Negro in America, and made an appeal for a better understanding of him so that he could be of the greatest service to the country, and the country could avail itself of his natural talents. The greatest handicap of the Negro in America, he said, is the ignorance on the part of the remainder of the people of the great possibilities of the colored race. He spoke briefly of Negroes who had acquired distinction, not only in musculature, but in the stage, in other walks of life. The Negro is not a sporadic growth in the Americas. "He is not even a hyphenated American. He is native born. I am not a sporadic growth from the Negro as an actor, for there have been others." He spoke of Aria Aldridge, who had to go to England to receive recognition, and, after making a success upon the stage, was honored by crowned heads throughout Europe. He was once a call boy at Wallack's Theater in New York. Mr. Gilpin told of his own early struggles for recognition, how the municipal agencies had turned him away, in vain again and he had worked, as Pullman porter between his attempts to get a stage. Asked if he was in sympathy with Marus: Garvey "Back to Africa" movement of some of the Negro leaders, Mr. Gilpin said he was not. "How can you go back to a place where you have never been," he said. THE WEST INDIES AND THE NEGRO QUESTION When the senate begins talking about getting the British and French West Indies, in return for the debts owed by those countries to the United States, someone should rise in the chamber and read the following item of news from the Associated Press: Athens, Ga., Feb. 17.—A mob of 5,000 persons stormed the Clarke county jail, and after forcibly taking, John Lee Eberhardt, a Negro, charged with the murder of Mrs. Walter Lee of Oconee county, from the jail, burned him at the stake. That item has more to do with the subject of debate than any piece or senatorial eloquence yet noted. It may be taken for granted that neither Britain nor France will hand over its colonies to America without the consent of the people in those colonies. Those people are chiefly Negroes. The population of Jamaica at the last census was 831,383. Of these 15,605 were white, 163,201 were classed as colored and 630,181 black; the rest were Chinese or East Indians. In Bermuda, two-thirds of the population is black, and this proportion, at least, holds through most of the other islands, save Trinidad. There, about one-third of the inhabitants are East Indians, but the Negroes are a heavy majority of the rest. In the French islands the colored population is about the same in proportionate numbers, though with a larger admixture of the original Indian back. In the British and French islands, Negroes are not burned at the stake by mobs, for there are no mobs. The black man has his day to court, like the white man; and while it could not be true to say that there is no political and social discrimination, there is vastly less than in (southern) America. Are these colored islanders likely to give up their present dignity and security for union with our country, where we think we are making progress if only fifty or sixty black men are lynched in the course of a year? The senate discussion dimly reflects the growing sentiment of the American people that the international debts, especially that owed by France to this country, ought not to be collected in full. Doubtless the senatorial debate will help to crystallize that sentiment, and to that extent, it is valuable. But what chance is there that any black population will vote to put itself under our charge until we make more progress in dealing with the colored people here at home?—Chicago Daily Journal.

SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1921. The Harding cabinet is impressive. Its members are all men of proved executive ability, some in the public service, the others in successful private enterprise. They have been carefully chosen, solely with the view of making the coming administration the most effective force for the public welfare. Good men and true! --- Two years after the event, President Wilson disclosed the fact that he made an agreement with Lloyd George and Clemenceau to accept German bonds in lieu of the debt owed by Belgium to the United States. He confided the information to Congress "in view of the approaching termination of my administration." This is but one of the many secrets concerning his transactions in Paris that Mr. Wilson has heretofore failed to reveal. Now that his administration has come to an end why not lay bare the whole history of those international bickerings so that future administrations may profit by his mistakes. What next? A new and hitherto unknown organization has issued a manifest from its "Headquarters by the Cook Stove and the Cradle" declaring, among other things: "We believe Congress should realize that the eight-hour work day and the forty-four hour week of industrial workers do not consistently jibe with the 16-hour work day and the hundred and twelve hour week of the average housewife." But this new organization doesn't say just what it wants done in the premises. There is no declaration disclosing whether the new lobbyists want the 8-hour day increased for the industrial workers or the 16-hour day cut down for the housewife. Neither does the organization say what it proposes to advise as a remedy in case Congress fails to institute desired reforms. Judging by past events, the proper procedure would be for the ladies in possession of the "Headquarters by the Cook Stove," etc., to threaten to strike and starve the American people to death. That was the plan pursued by the Four Brotherhoods, and, under the recent administration, they got what they wanted. We recollect the story of a young wife who asked her mother how to treat her husband in order best to get along with him and was advised to "Feed the brute." But that sort of policy isn't likely to produce desired results for the members of the organization that protests against a 16-hour day, seven days in the week. So long as the 8-hour-per-day male worker gets his three squares a day, what cares he if some more patient toiler occupies 16 hours a day cooking, washing dishes, sweeping, mending, cleaning the kids, making beds and going to market? Our advice in the matter has not been asked, but if any one should ask it, we would respectfully suggest that the officers of organization with "Headquarters by the cook stove and the cradle" insist upon being placed upon the same basis as the most favored union, including time-and-a-half for overtime. Certainly no union made up of gentlemen will refuse support to such a demand. Simplicity, sincerity and efficiency were the dominant notes of the inauguration of Warren G. Harding as our twenty-eighth President, last Friday. While Washington, which has in times past been smothered in an avalanche of visitors and military contingents upon the occasion of the installation of a new chief executive, was not free from sightseers, there was a very noticeable absence of the usual throng of visitors. Especially distinctive, as compared with past inaugurals, was the almost total lack of military display and the blare of vociferous military bands. It seemed particularly fitting that President Harding's inauguration, with its simple, sincere, American tone, should fall upon the one hundredth anniversary of that other simple ceremony which marked the second inauguration of President Monroe. In fact, there is a distinct parallel between these two ceremonies separated by the span of a century. Mr. Monroe's second inauguration, which fell on March 5th, 1821 (Sunday being the 4th) was, perhaps, the first inauguration held in the open on the east front of the capitol. Monroe was called the "good era President" and this was recalled, March 4th, 1921, by thousands in Washington who hailed Mr. Harding as the prophet of another "good era" which will follow on the heels of a return to the tenets of the Constitution and American "normalcy." President Harding's inaugural address was as simple and straightforward and American as were the ceremonies marking his induction into office. He recognized that the people are restive under their present burdens and desire them lightened. While not posing as a miracle man, President Harding pledged himself to devote all of his powers and the powers of his administration to the great task before him. In order to assist in the reconstruction of the country he asked that the people not manifest a spirit of impatience or expect the impossible. No man ever entered the White House with a wider knowledge of the task before him than does President Harding. He has, from the day of his election, given intensive study to the problems confronting the country. He has consulted with men of all factions and all parties and all sections. No man ever took infinite pains before assuming office to sound public sentiment about the issues with which he will have to deal and we are confident that he will handle them to the entire satisfaction of the great mass of the American people, our group included, of course. Sinceest and best wishes, Mr. President! Yank Restored To Parent By Red Cross READING. Pa.—Twenty years of separation—years of sorrow and longing—were ended when Private Joseph F. Amen, marine veteran of Chateau-Thierry, was reunited with his mother, Mrs. Francis Amoroso, at her home in this city. The reunion of mother and son and the long separation was made possible through the Red Cross while Amen was with the army of occupation in Germany. Stolen from his home by his father in a fit of anger when only three years old, Amen was hidden among strangers in the south. He grew to boyhood among these men, no longer wanting whether his mother was alive or dead. His father had disappeared. The lad later learned that his grandparents lived in Italy. While serving with the marines in France he wrote to them. They informed him that his mother was still alive and was living "somewhere in America," and that he was rewarded shortly before he left France when he was informed that his mother resided in Reading. After reaching New York, Amen was sent to Camp Mills. He received a twenty-four-hour leave and immediately paid his mother the first visit in twenty years. He received reocclusions of his mother and she had to be pointed out to him before he recognized her. A touching scene followed when the mother and son embraced. Since Amen was spirited away by his father, his mother was re-married and on his return Amen met for the first time a half-sister, who is 18. The best news I ever received," said Amen. "was a letter from my mother, while I was stationed at Melsbach, Germany, with the army of occupation." Until the Red Cross authorities communicated with Mrs. Amoroso she believed her son dead. "I did not know he lived," said the mother when sobs of joy, "until I received the letter from the Red Cross." Amen is a veteran of the Fifth regular army division. He saw service in practically every campaign and battle in which the American troops participated in France and the occupation in Germany. Despite his extensive service, Amen came through without a wound. New Teeth For Dog KANSAS CITY.—In answer to an advertisement requesting a loan of a toothless dog, inserted by Ralph Hardin, a veterinary surgeon, Jack Gallagher, a member of the Kansas City, Kennel Club, delivered to Dr. Hardin a Scotch colli which possessed but two teeth, one on each side. Hardin, with the assistance of a dentist, made a set of teeth for the dog. According to observers the new teeth are a success. SOME "DONTS".

Blount. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. 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 dark 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 be like a winner. Competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."

FUNERALS, $100 Upon the gas company, under the new gas ordinance, is imposed the duty of seeing that all consumers keep their appliances in a state of efficiency and use only approved devices and appliances. This would necessitate the installation and maintenance of an entirely new department requiring a large number of employees making continuous inspection of consumers' appliances. It leaves to the East Ohio Gas Company, presumably, the dictation of the particular appliances to be used and likewise leaves it open to constant charges of having a financial interest in the supplying of such devices. It leaves it for the company to devise the means of enforcing this provision; of compelling the consumer to junk his old appliances and install what the company directs. It leaves the company to defend any and all actions in court that might follow the aggressive course that would be necessary on its part to live up to this provision and compel the consumers to comply with it. In short it is such a provision as the company cannot possibly consider accepting.

It is said that Mayor FitzGerald recently stopped the distribution in this city of Henry Ford's paper, the Dearborn Independent, because of its anti-Jewish articles. How about it? Mrs. women's organization of Boydston post was organized, Monday night, at central bath house. Mrs. Wm. Bailey was elected pres., Mrs. Lauy Boydston, sec., and Mrs. Bertha Gales, treas. There is considerable "growling" on the part of stockholders in the Turner Automatic Fan Co., who it is said were expecting to get their money back, as promised, at the meeting held Tuesday evening. There was a nice crowd, Monday night, at Pythian Castle at the dance given by the Acme Association, who gave their usual first-class affair. The capable committee in charge were: A. F. Yancy, chairman, assisted by E. M. Helvey, C. Johns and E. M. Mackey. Through a mistake, last week, the Boxarth corporation manager was made as T. Willis an advertisement, when the local agent is known to be J. H. Thomas, who has made quite a record here selling Egg Harbor lots. Lemuel T. Boydston Post, No. 89, this city, voted in favor of the formation of a rifle regiment at its meeting, Monday night, in Central Marine auditorium. The aid of Gov. Harry L. Davis and Senator Willis has been enlisted and the Post members are declaring that they do not want a "ditch digging" but a fighting regiment. The Naco Giants, who made a fine baseball record last season are preparing for a busy season and have added some clever young players to their team. The Fears Giants will be under the direction of Phil Fears, who has disclosed a great penchant for digging up promising new material. He has opened a clean, modern clubhouse on Central Ave. The famous Forty club of the Chicago Wabash "Y" fresh from a series of triumphs in the East, dropped into the city last Friday and easily downed our local cracks in several games. The Forty boys have the smoothest running basketball machine ever seen in these regions and the work of Capt Blutt and Sol Butler was matchless. Friday night they bested the Pioneers, local champs, 22 to 9; Saturday Akron bowed to them, 45 to 10; Monday night they played the Swastikas to a standstill, winning 48 to 10.

The Wisteria club met at Mrs. John Wilson's, E. 97th St., Mar. 5, and made a cash donation to the found to provide meals for under-nursed children of Mayflower school. Good for the Wisteria! At its regular meeting, Feb. 19, at the P. W. A. curtains were made, as usual during the lenten season, for the P. W. home, Luncheon was served. Mrs. Wm. H. Gray, E. 103d St., is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Josie Cooper in Washington, D. C. Atty, and Mrs. Alex. H. Martin, Sidney B. Thompson and the editor of The Good Return returned from that city, Tuesday afternoon, after a four days visit, Garret A. Morgan, Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Fleming, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McNaughton and other Clevelanders were also at the nation's capital to witness the inauguration of President Harding. "Negroes" from the South have been encouraged by prejudiced whites to start a "jim crow" school in the Columbus Hill district, N. Y. City. This was done in the same way they encourage our people to do something of the sort in other cities—always with a view of promoting the segregation of the race. It has been so in N. Y. City, Philadelphia, Chicago, Columbus, and many other places we could mention, but not gin by getting ignorant, creolous, selfish or just naturally "jim crow" Negroes to urge a "jim crow" hospital, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., or something of the kind, and the rest of the way to "jim crow" schools is comparatively easy because "jim crow" feeds upon itself and grows O, so rapidly in almost any community in the North, these days. The opening of a "jim crow" hospital in Cleveland, or any other place, will practically close every other hospital in that community to our people, just as it was for every other community and our population, each year, it is a question if one hospital would accommodate our sick who need such service. We are again sounding this warning because many of our professional men and school teachers seem sound asleep. Better "wake up!"

"Jim Crow" hospitals, Y. M. C. A.'s and Y. W. C. A.'s always mean separate or "jim-crow public" schools. That has been the rule, not the exception. Remember this, please.

A., and they got them. But they are not asking for a "jim crow" school, but it looks as though they are going to get it, regardless of the fact that they are fighting against it with all their might. The fact that they have the two "jim crow Ys", by their own request, is evidence that the whites have the best of the argument. Colored people in Cleveland and in other parts of the country should profit by the experience of the people in Omaha. For Council in Ward Eleven BACKED BY WELL-KNOWN RESIDENTS OF THE WARD. Councilman Thos. W. Fleming Booked For Another Hot Fight, WHEREAS, we as citizens of the Eleventh Ward are cognizant of the fact that at the fall election a representative is to be elected from each ward in the city of Cleveland, to sit in a legislative body, known as the City Council, and WHEREAS, In the last six years the thirty-four thousand Negroes that live within the boundries of said city, have been represented by the person or persons representing the Eleventh Ward, and WHEREAS, It is the purpose of this organization to promote civic betterment, social uplift and political emancipation. Then, Therefore Be It Resolved That in order to carry out the principles herein contained we demand that candidates for the office of Councilman in the Eleventh Ward "come out" upon a concrete platform and many principles and not merely party promises that are not worth repeating. That we in selecting a man to present to the public, after having considered, character, morality and integrity, take this opportunity to ask MR. GEORGE E. RANDOL, of 2158 E. 46th St., Cleveland, Ohio, to become a candidate. E. R. Brown, President, M. H. Dixon, Vice-President, F. Clark, Secretary, Peter D. Ross. Brief Sketch of George E. Randol. Born, Beauna Vista, Virginia, Nov. 19, 1895. Moved to Pennsylvania and then to Cleveland, arriving here July 3, 1903. Received education in Cleveland Public Schools and Cleveland School of Music. Worked as fireman for Cleveland Salt Company, moulder for Interstate Foundry Company, service department in several hotels and clubs throughout the country, traveled with the Swanee River Male Quartette and Thomas Male Quartette, doing lyework during the years of 1915, 1916, and the early part of 1917.

March 1, 1921. —Adv Pending further investigation by the Cleveland Hospital Council, the Welfare Federation is withholding indemnity of the plans for a Lincoln Memorial hospital for colored people as put forward by the Cleveland Hospital Association, an organization of colored physicians. In a preliminary report the hospital council quotes from the Cleveland hospital and health survey to show there is practically no discrimination against colored people in any of the hospitals. The council says most of the colored patients in hospitals are charity patients and voices the fear that a hospital for exclusive use of that race would not be self-supporting. Dr. Joe T. Thomas, 2406 E. 40th St., president of the Cleveland Hospital Association, admitted, yesterday, that many colored patients in the hospitals are charity cases, but said that situation is due to the fact that most of the people now have medical attendance in their home in preference to entering the hospitals. He said these would patronize and support the proposed hospital "We would gladly consent to the appointment of a white superintendent of nurses and white physicians to form a visiting and consulting staff to help direct the hospital. At present there is no opportunity for the colored practitioners of the city to do hospital work which would help them keep abreast of their profession, nor could girls to become trained nurses. There are colored hospitals in Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Indianapolis and other large cities."—Monday's Plain Dealer. Dr. Joe Thomas, a comparative newcomer to Cleveland, does not represent our people of this city in the matter of a "colored hospital" or Cleveland any more, he represents them not many months ago, when he was agitating his "back to By Allen Harrison Dorsey. A regular "busy izzy" is the best way to describe Jim Taylor, the former leader of the Dayton Marcos, who comes to Cleveland this season to direct the destinies of the Tate Stars. Not a boaster, he already has the nucleus of a club, which he claims will show worthy opposition to the hardest members of our baseball league. Among the promising talent he has lined up are Herman Roth, a young catcher, who was a shining light on the New Orleans University nine; McNeal, a classy receiver, out of the game last year with a bad arm; Brown and Coleman, two speedy outfielders who shone for the Dayton Marcos, last season; Brannan, a 21 year old throwing marvel, with a fine physique, weighing 175 lbs, whose pitching was a sensation for the Marcos and Cooper, now a Cleveland player, a first base player in Missouri State College and the only colored boy to make the all-Navy team of the U. S. Jim Taylor, who is to lead our diamond hopes on the ball field, the coming season, dropped into the city, early Tuesday morning, for a conference with President Geo. J. Tate. He came to discuss contracts, go over the names of the players he has lined up and to look over the proposed playing field at Sykora Ave. and Beyerle Rd.

Rochester has caught the "ball fever" and led by Jos. C. Moore, our leading business man there, they have organized the Rochester Giants, who will use the International league park. Jno. W.

CHIEF SMITH SHOULD STOP IT The sc-called "Women's Committee of Protest, temporary headquarters, 1570 W. 3rd St." this city, is circulating some mighty "raw" literature (German propaganda against France, primarily, and against our people), throughout the city. We presume the same policy is being followed throughout the country. It is the same "stuff" that Secretary of State Colby denounced in the daily press of the country, the first of the week, as being untrue and "German propaganda against France because that country is trying to force the Allies to make a move in the Peace Treaty. We have called Police Chief Smith's attention to the fact that the distribution of that "inflammable" literature has already aroused many of our people to the degree that will eventually cause the formation of a mob and the storming of those "temporary headquarters" for the purpose of destroying that mob-mimicking literature and putting the "headquarters out of commission." Avoid all this, Chief, by doing your clear duty in the matter. We here and now call upon Mayor FitzGerald, too, to do his duty promptly in the manner of the organization of that informal lying "literature" an outrage on the entire community. Why are not our Women's clubs, the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and our Cleveland Association of Business Men active in this matter? Department of Public Safety, Office of the Chief of Police. Cleveland, Feb. 26, 1921. H. C. Smith, Esq. Editor Gazette, City. Dear Sir: I—am in receipt of a clipping from The Gazette referring to literature being distributed in the city by the Women's Committee of Protest, 1570 W. 3rd St., regarding the alleged conduct of colored French soldiers on the Rhine (in Germany). Permit me to advise you that some weeks ago my attention was called to the same and I immediately ordered that the matter be taken up with the United States authorities with a view to ascertaining what steps could be taken to compel them to discontinue. The investigating officer called up M. M. Benton, of the U. S. Department of Justice, who exhibited several copies of the same pamphlets and stated that to send out the same was no violation of law. Consequently there appears to be nothing we can do in the matter. Thanking you for calling my attention to the same, I am. Respectfully yours, Frank Smith, Chief of Police. Cleveland, Feb. 28, '21. Mr. Frank Smith, Chief of Police, City. Dear Sir:—Your letter just received and I am glad to know that you have taken some action in the matter as I felt sure you had or would. It seems to me, in view of the fact that the offensive literature to which reference is made is a batch of lies at least so far as it relates to "colored troops in Germany" and is in a fair way to create mob disturbance in this country. If the distribution is very soon that you might invoke the aid of the law that enabled the police to stop the showing of the Johnson-Jeffries fight motion-pictures, several years ago, on the ground that their showing might have a tendency to promote mob violence. This is a local matter for the handling of which local tax-payers, who have "to foot the bill" in case of death or destruction of property, etc., by the mob, look to the police and the Department of Public Safety and very properly, too. The power of the U. S. Department of Justice is possibly limited, as Mr. Bliss Morton indicated, but there is no such limitation on our local police, for reasons intimated if not plainly stated in the foregoing. The Johnson-Jeffries fight motion-pictures were stopped and so can the distribution of the malicious mob inciting literature referred to, and I sincerely trust that you will act and promptly, to this end. Respectfully yours, Harry C. Smith In addition to the foregoing, a copy of which was sent to Mayor FitzGerald and Director of Public Safety Sprosty, we desire to call the mayor's attention to the fact that our people of this community are not going to forget before next fall's election any failure on his part to do his clear duty in this matter. It rests with him, as well as with Director Sprosty and Chief Smith, as to whether or not the distribution of that slanderous and mob inciting literature is to be promptly stopped. THEY HAVE THE POWER TO DO IT—if they want to invoke it, AND THEY KNOW IT. There have been no "colored troops in Germany" for more than seven months. This fact has been published broadcast throut this country for many weeks and still that insulting vicious and outrageous German propaganda literature is permitted to be distributed in various parts of the country. Why? Have Americans grown to great a love for that country and its people all, when But a few months ago, they were insulting, abusing and cursing Germans indiscriminately. Now in many cities, etc, they are permitting German-Americans, at the behest of Germans in "the old country," to do much the same thing for Afro-Americans, thousands upon thousands of whom were in France, members of the A. E. F., and thousands are still there "sleeping where poppies grow." Lord, have there poppies grown, were on the Rhine, early last year, when the Colored French troops were quartered there deny, and most emphatically, too, the lying reports, being circulated now, that any of their women were assaulted or outraged in any way by those troops.

My Dear Editor:—The'attention of the people of the city of Cleveland has been called through the columns of The Gazette to a proposed plan for a "colored" hospital. This plan, as published, has apparently received the endorsement of the majority of Cleveland colored physicians. We do not stand in the position to condemn one for his individual idea on matters of public moment as concerning the race, for environment has created for many of us our thinking and ideas on matters of race import. But as a part and parcel of the citizens of the city of Cleveland, we must stand firmly by and guard those rights and privileges which have been ours for the time past. The Gazette has stood stolidly and unequivocally opposed to any movement which seeks to foster race separation. A hospital for "Negroes" in the city of Cleveland is a further step to other institutions of a separate nature and a warning further of "crackerdom" in Cleveland from which thousands sought the northern clime as a haven. Geo. C. Sutton, M. D., 10566 Cedar Ave. To the Public Dear Sir;—With reference to the proposed Lincoln Hospital, I wish it distinctly understood that I am not in favor of the establishment of a Colored Hospital, by physicians. I signed the petition as presented to me by Dr. Joe T. Thomas because I was of the opinion that public sentiment was in favor of the plan, and not desiring to stand in the way of the majority. I acquiesced. Now, however, since the publication of the plan the scheme has been labeled as an effort of "Negro physicians" and not "a public movement." I desire to withdraw my support from the venture. (Signed) Oliver A. Taylor, M. D. Central Ave, and East 49th St. "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it." -Abraham Lincoln.

Ban On Fire Whistles TOPEKA, Kan.—Fire whistles are almost a thing of the past in Kansas. The reason is because the fire insurance companies charge higher rates in towns where there are fire whistles. The companies declare that a whistle is an added risk, because telephone patrons will call up to learn the location of the fire when the near the whistle, and the work of calling the firemen—volunteers—is greatly delayed, often resulting in heavy losses.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. 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, to all citizens and regardless of 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 not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved to be recovered in county court upon 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, and they must do them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. My Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
