C.—In the Nash County Superior court, Judge Calvert, recently, sentenced to twenty-five years in the penitentiary, W. L. Jones (white), for the murder of Ned Thomas, the colored jailer of the jail herg. Jones, an automobile thief, was the leader of a gang of prisoners who broke jail a few weeks ago. He murdered the jailer to effect his escape, but was soon captured and will now have to serve his term in the state prison. BY THEIR OWN PETARD. The "horror on the Rhine" is officially declared "off". The lies which were industriously discriminated regarding the conduct of French colored troops in the occupied region were not believed by many outside of Germany, but within Germany they gained considerable credence. The result is that the sanitariums and health resorts along the Rhine valley are doing very little business this summer. The rich Bavarians are going elsewhere to spend their vacations and their money: They have been shown faked films and fed with mendacious propaganda to such an extent that they do not care to run the risk of becoming a part of the "horror." So it results that the government of Baden through Dr. Reuter, state councilor of health, officially announces that there is no "horror." Dr. Reuter declares that "no one has been in any way molested." and that stories of colored soldiers annoying either men or women are "utterly false." "Utterly false" is strong language for a high German official to use in connection with propaganda, which has been zealously discriminated with the conviction if not with the active assistance of the German government.—Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer.

Mass.-Supporting on principle the protest of the Afro-American Republicans of North Carolina, the N. E. P. League has sent a telegram to President Harding on the Linney Federal Attorneyship. It read: "The National Equal Rights League notes the public charge that Frank Linney, North Carolina, appointed a U. S. Attorney, opposed Afro-American citizens voting. If this is his record, as it seems to be, the league, in behalf of Afro-American, petitions you to withdraw his appointment to Federal Department of Justice, which department enforces the Constitution and the 14th and 15th Amendments thereof, with which your acceptance speech accorded. WAITER WORTH NEARLY $50,000. NEW YORK CITY--The sudden death of Joseph Lee, 45 years old recently, revealed the fact that he was practically rolling in wealth, as $10,000 in cash and $20,000 in Liberty Bonds were found on his person in addition to two bank books. The police are making efforts to locate his relatives so that upon proper proof his worldly goods now be turned over to them. Lee was a writer by profession, going to Florida in the winter and the Thousand Islands in the summer. He was a bright matte, having red hair and a freckled face, and to those, who did not know him was taken for white. A HARVARD TEACHER SENTENCED Given a Three Months' Term in Jail for Assault on a Colored Policeman Boston, Mass.—James A. Duncan, a "cracker" from Columbia, S. C., and teaching fellow at Harvard university, was sentenced, May 18, to serve three months in jail for assault with a knife on a policeman. He appealed and was released on $1,000 bonds. Frances Shannon, who said her home was in Tennessee and that she was Duncan's hancee, testified regarding the incident that led to the assault. She had previously given her name as Alice Thomas. The officer found them in a door-way, late at night, and ordered them to "move on." For this, he was assaulted by the "cracker." Officer Blair when called said to the judge that he was trying doors on Camden St. and that when he came in front of a secondhand furniture store he noticed a couple in the doorway about 11:30 A.M. He asked them what they were doing and was told to mind his own business. When he commanded them to move on "Miss Thomas" (Shannon) insulted him and when he pulled Duncan out of the doorway, the latter \slashed, him across the front of his left hand with a knife. When Officer Blair was asked in cross examination by Capt. Gallivan what Duncan and "Miss Thomas" were doing in the doorway when he came along his reply was "When I come upon them they were embraced and they separated. The girl's dress, which was up, fell and when I had pulled Duncan out of the door way his pants was opened. The Shannon girl; age 18, who had previously given her name as "Julia Thomas," was found not guilty of any connection with the assault. She was discharged: SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS HAITI SPEAKS! Their Brutalities and Atrocities force the Natives to Rebell—They were not "Bandits" No greater indication of an American Administration has ever been more than is required in the temporarily written Liberty-throat-and-work session of the Delegates to the United States of the Haitian Patriotic Union, writing the history of the American Occupation in Haiti which was presented to the Department of State and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, last week. Despite its moderation, it more than confirms every day in the Nation an unfolded personal encounter with the Haitians as themself a military relationship sealed their lips for two years—it establishes that our quest of Haiti was neither instituted under any principle of international law nor sanctioned by any coercive necessity. It should finally put an end to all the exuses alleged in our defense—such as the exuses alleged in our defense of American interests, restoration of order, suppression of fraud, bad Haitian finances, etc. The report again makes plain that the local revolutionary disturbance of July 28, 1915, merely disturbed a long-awaited pretext for intervention, that our interests were in no wise imperiled, that far from their being disorder when the militaries landed it was their brutalities which created and then perpetuated the previously non-existent "Caqoim," a bannetry net of crime but of revolt against the alien invasion. The state of the Haitian finances is lucidly set forth—the they were by no means in a tangle; the external and internal debt of the country had always been fully paid until the American Occupation inaugurated an era of mismanagement, (to put it charitably) quite unprecedented under Haitian control. The appended list of atrocities it is difficult for an American to read without shame and horror. It does not purport to be a complete record. On the contrary, it is limited to the comparatively few cases called, in writing, to the attention of the Naval Court of Inquiry sent to Haiti last fall by Secretary Daniels to offset Senator Harding's campaign attack, and published, upon the refusal of the Court to consider them, in the newspapers of Port-au-Prince. "Murder of women and children, wholesale killing of prisoners, torture with red hot irons, the "water cure," arson, robbery, violence of every kind—the constitute an everlasting stain on American honor. If this report does not arouse the American people then its conscience is indeed dead. The Nation cannot believe that it is and that all our professions of good faith, decency fair play, all our great and honorable traditions upheld for nearly a century and a half, can be thus lightly cast on the scam-heep. Here is a small and inclusive country, next to our own the oldest in this hemisphere, self-governing for 111 years, a republic which achieved one sort of freedom fifty years before our own for it abolished slavery when it became independent, made the victim of wholly vampion, brutal, militaristic combat. The are facts that cannot be whitewashed, propagandized, or lied about. It matters little what President Herding said at the foot of the statue of Bolivar, or what fine phrases President Wilson uttered. What really counts—the acid test—is what we have done and what we shall do to little Haiti, the one country which, by a curious irony, made a really substantial contribution to the cause of Bolivar and South American freedom while we stood aloof. The American Occupation in Haiti forbade a public meeting of the Union Patriotique d'Haiti, scheduled for March 27, the day of Secretary of Navy Denby's visit. But they permitted a "vouloir dance" in the market place of Port-au-Prince, which was carefully filmed by a battery of American motion picture photographers. It is important to note that the coalition in which much has been made by our intelligence propaganda is institutionalized in Haiti, we may do so in Haiti but are enclosed by the American Occupation. Since the day of the American Occupation the Haitian government has legitimated the Haitian military in the practice of military training among the Haitian elite and the Haitian elite for military training in Haiti. For many Haitians the military has been a barrier to the American Occupation. The purpose of staging it at such a time is wholly clear. Incidentally, Mr. Denby landed on a Sunday morning and left Port-au-Prince early the next day. The Haitian newspapers report that he conversed for twenty minutes with Dartigueave, the President who was imposed on the country IN UNION IT IS STRENGTH E COPY FIVE CENTS NT! American Democrats Black Republic And Atrocities force the they were not "Bandits" by our Marine Corps, but that other- also he talked with no responsible Haitians with no member of the Union Patriotique, nor took the occa- sion to inform himself in any way of the Haitian grievance. But a Wash- ington dispatch printed in New York newspapers of April 5 reports that on his return "Mr. Denby said he made a careful study of the situation in Haiti and found the Marine posts well conducted and that a spirit of confidence exists between natives and the enemy." Secretary Denby's instantaneous characterization of the charges contained in the Haitian Memoir as "rot" refutes itself. Doubtless he had not even read the Memoir; otherwise he would have displayed more caution in the face of so-well documented, so factual an indictment. Moreover, the Secretary of the Navy directly, contravenes the position Aken by his chief, President Harding, during the recent campaign. Mr. Denby is a former marine. Apparently he considers that the honor of the Marine Corps must be vindicated by an absolute denial that any marines are in any way guilty of wrongdoing. This is a poor conception of his office. The men who commit atrocities are the ones who "besmirch the uniform"—not those who try for the sake of the good name of the entire organization and of the country to bring the offenders to book. According to the Haitian press Mr. Denby spent just twenty-four hours in Port-au-Prince and then left by automobile overland for Santo Domingo. He declares that in many of the villages visited he saw "arches and banners carrying the legend 'Vive La Occupation'" (sic). Possibly But if so they were written in Marine French. Of course everyone knows how happy the conquered always are under a foreign military occupation. Remember those happy Belgians! No impartial reader of the Haitian Memoir will doubt the truth of its charges, especially in the face of the obvious avoidance of them by the two whitewash inquiries instituted by Secretary Daniels. We need an honest, fearless, searching Congressional investigation to establish the character not only of the military but of the civil administration in Haiti for the last six years, and of the real causes which prompted the overthrow of Haitian sovereignty—an act fundamentally incompatible with every American tradition. Such an inquiry would furnish the basis for future American policy in the Caribbean. The Nation feels certain that it would establish that we have no right whatever in Haiti, that our argression was wholly unjustified, and that we owe the Haitian people as well as ourselves restoration of the elfice we have shattered besides retirement and reparation. Denials, whitewash, and propaganda cannot obscure the fundamental issue. Haiti must not become either America's Belgium or America's Ireland.—The Nation, New York City, Oswald Garrison Villard, editor. AMERICA, THE TESTING GROUND America will be the testing ground for the ethics of Jesus, the Declaration of Independence. Lincoln's Gettysburg address, and President Woodrow Wilson's brilliant generalizations regarding self-determination, democracy, justice and humanity. America will have a splendid opportunity to demonstrate to the world whether these are only ideals for poets to sing about. For Fourth of July orators to rave over, or whether they are ideals capable of concrete and definite embodiment, not in Heaven, but here and now on Mother Earth. America will have a glorious chance to determine whether these soaring ideals are only rhetorical effusions, magnificent pipe dreams or living actual realities. Meanwhile, it would pay the sons of Him to not merely wait on the Lord and wait on the Caucasian, but to develop intellectual, moral and industrial and commercial strength and to become a real factor in their own evolution.

SATURDAY, Jure 4, 1921. Now comes the rumor from a reliable source that some "cracker" (southern) woman at Cleveland's public school headquarters is announcing that no more of our women will be appointed school-teachers, etc., etc. Of course she is assuming authority (to speak) she does not possess and should be stopped. We understand that Councilman Thomas Fleming of Ward 11 has accepted our suggestion to call a meeting of the Central Ave. business men at an early date for the purpose of ascertaining their views on the immediate improvement of the street, car tracks and street-car service in that avenue. This should be done now while business is slow because it will not cause them to lose near so much business as it would were the street torn up when times are good, next year. Reliable report has it that the police prosecutor's office is refusing to issue warrants for the arrest of persons who violate our Civil Rights law and that W. R. Green, Esq., president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. has taken up the matter with Mayor FitzGerald and Law Director Woods. The latter promised the accustomed "investigation." We hope more will come of this "investigation" than resulted from the one the mayor promised The Gazette's editor in connection with our earnest protest against that vicious German propaganda literature which is still being circulated through the city. Miss Cleota Collins, well known lyric soprano appeared at St. John's A. M. E. church, June 1, under the auspices of the Rosebud Missionary Society of that church. Miss Collins is the daughter of the Rev. Ira A. Collins, deceased, who was pastor of St. John's church when the property on what is now E. 9th St., was sold and the present property (including the "St. John" building and property M. B. Rev. Ira A. Collins adjacent); and the church-building in E. 40th St., were purchased and built, respectively. He was one of the most popular Afro-American ministers that church and this city has ever had. To him more than to any other person is due the credit for the splendid church edifice and all the property now occupied and owned by the congregation of St. John's A. M. E. church. The church should have been packed to the doors on the night of June 1, 1921. The man who paid $5 for a $2 straw-hat will agree with President Harding's denunciation of certain retailers for refusal to cut prices. It is a pretty hard matter to get it whack at this class of retailers and President Harding is to be commended for his courage in speaking in the open. The crux of the whole question of exorbitant prices is to be found in the retail trade. Many of the retailers refuse to cut their prices, the consumers' strike is thereby continued, the water backs up and the mills are closed down. But if those retailers who persist in their recalcitrancy would only stop to think, they would be astonished at their own short-sightedness, for they are building up an opposition and encouraging an alliance between the manufacturers and the consumers which may in the not distant future result in direct sales and the obliterating of the retail trade, when the employees of that trade will be compelled to resort to productive work. HARD SLEDDING Ambassador Harvey advised Europe that the United States would co-operate, but not meddle. Following this the Congressional leader of internationalism in this country, Senator Gilbert Hitchcock, became bitter in his denunciation of Mr. Harvey for presuming to indicate what should be the foreign policy of President Harding. On the day Hitchcock was accusing Mr. Harvey of presumption Secretary of State Hughes wrote the Polish Minister relative to the Silesian Boundary dispute, in part as follows: "I have the honor to inform you that, in my opinion, the settlement of such boundary disputes as arise in the matter under consideration is a matter of European concern in which, in accord with the traditional policy of the United States, this Government should not become involved. The attitude of the Government in this matter is clearly understood by its representatives in Europe, who will, therefore, take no part in the discussions concerning Upper Silesia and will give no opinion as to the settlement." So it seems that the foreign policy of the Harding Administration is fairly well understood by our representatives in Europe, whatever view Senator Hitchcock may take of it. It is hard sledding for internationalism, these days. "Greater political and social stability cannot come in Europe unless the United States helps," declares Edward A. Filene, of Boston. For heaven's sake what are we supposed to do? Is the United States to take all Europe under wardship? For over two years now, we have been handing out money and food to Europe, and by reason of lax immigration laws we have provided a haven for several hundred thousand of the most explosive elements of European society. The nation which suffered perhaps the heaviest during the war was France. Immediately the war closed France accepted Clemenceau's advice and went to work. The consequence is that France has never thrust her tin cup under the nose of Uncle Sam, she has never sought to evade her financial obligations to us, her export trade has grown by leaps and bounds so that it is far in excess of pre-war days, and her people are getting back to normalcy with a speed and determination which might well be emulated by the rest of Europe. And Europe can do so if it will also follow the advice of Clemenceau—go to work. To hear men of Mr. Filene's stamp talk one would think we were responsible for the war. 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 companion no desire to disturb his imagination. Is a good time to "get awake."

Mrs. Beulah Smith was ejected from a street car and called "Nigger woman" by a conductor. She sued the traction company and was awarded $500 for damages. Her many friends are sending congratulations because of her courage and persistence in fighting the case.—Cincinnati (O.) Union Last year, there were 69 lynchings in the United States. Of these, 55 were Negroes and 14 were white people. This is 6 more Negroes and 11 more whites than were put to death by mobs in 1914. Included in the record are three women. In 1915, 18 Negroes were lynched in Georgia alone—one-fourth of the total number lynched for that year. In nearly every year for many years, that state has led all others of the United States in the number of Negroes lynched. According to advises received in New York City, recently, a native tribe in open rebellion in the Queenstown district (Johannesburg, South Africa) were considerable number of natives have lived large estates and are defending themselves against a strong force of police armed with machine guns. The natives, according to the advises, have been driven to desperation by a long series of injustices perpetrated against them by the government and the white population. All efforts put forward to save the six Afro-Americans charged with exciting a race riot at Elaine, Ark., have been of no avail and the Governor has set the date of their execution for June 10. Many of our people at Elaine were murdered and their property destroyed in a massacre which occurred in that place last October growing out of their resentment of unfair treatment at the hands of white farmers. The Arkansas courts did not think this punishment was sufficient and an "example" is to be made of these six colored men who "fought back."

Now Sir Albert Stern has lifted the veil and has told the story of how the tank was born and of the uphill fight with the "authorities which was in necessary to secure its adoption." In the course of a striking article in the Strand magazine, Sir Albert traces the history of the land ship. It was at a cupboard at Murray's in 1914 that the idea of a great land ship capable of crossing the Rhine was discussed. Then came plans for a super-armored car, and Mr. Churchill beaie interested. The result of his interest was the appointment of a land ship committee. No government department would consider a construction of a ship however, and so Sir Albert, then a leutant in the R. N. V. R., took offices himself and thereby made mortal enemies at the admiralty. Mr. Eustace D'Eyncourt was the chairman of the committee, and he had as his chief lieutenant Maj. Hetherington and Col. Crompton. Sir Albert Sieb was secretary. He was also the work that in August 1915, Mr. Tritton and Lieut. Wilson had ready a full-size model of a tank afterward known as "Little W. le." Then came a series of setbacks, manufacturers were no more favorably disposed to the new machine than the admiralty and war office had been, and there was great difficulty in seizing the necessary parts. Sir Albert tells the interesting story of the evolution of the name tank. In 1916 it was suggested that the name "hand ship" should be changed to "sail ship." Mr. McCourt suggested "water carrier." In government offices committees and departments are known by their initials. For this reason, I considered the proposed title wholly unsuitable, and in our search for a synonymous term we changed "water carrier" to "tank." The first tank, "Mother," was finished on January 26, 1916, and was tried in Hatfield park. "Col. Swinton, who was acting as assistant secretary to the committee of Imperial Defense was interested with the task of raising and training a corps to man the tanks. The first tanks were sent to France in September, 1916, and were in action for months after the order for them had been given." Sir Albert tells a good story of Tommy's impression of the tanks expressed in a letter to his family. Here it is: "They can do up prisoners in bundles like straw binders, and in addition, have an adaption of a printing machine, which enables them to catch the Huns, food, count, and deliver them in quilts, every thirteenth man being thrown out a little further than the others. "the tanks can trust refractory prisoners fowls for cooking, while their equipment renders it possible for them to charge into a crowd of Huns, and, by shooting out spokes like porcupine quills, carry off an opponent on each. Though 'stuck up,' the prisoners are, needless to say, by no means proud of their position. They can chew up barbed wire and turn it into munitions. They turn over on their backs and catch live shells in their caterpillar feet, and they can easily be adapted as submines." Even after the appearance of the war in action the war office was by no means favorably disposed toward the new-fangled weapon, and an order for a thousand tanks was countermanded. Then followed a dramatic incident. Sir Arthur went at once to Mr. Lloyd George, then Secretary of State for War. He declared that he had heard nothing of the instruction. "I told him," says Sir Arthur, "that he would be to the war. He could cancel my appointment, but he could not possibly get me to cancel the order." "Sir William Robertson, chief of staff, then appeared, and Mr. Lloyd George told him that he could not understand how the order could be cancelled without his knowledge. Next day the order was restored." Sir Arthur's troubles were not over, however. His fight with the war office was to go on to the ter that fight, and by the ter that fight, generals demanded his dismission for presuming to pre, for more and more talks. Sir Arthur and his colleagues won the day—and helped to win the war.

Councilman Fleming's resolution, resulting in the City Council's ordering the widening of E. 30th St. at the expense of propertyholders in that street, and the city, not assessing the Street-Car Co. anything when it is the latter that needs the improvement and will be most benefitted, has caused a tremendous feeling against him on the part of many of the property-holders in E. 30th St. What is the idea in leaving the Street-Car Co. out, Tom? Then, too, the Central Ave. street-car service is like the tracks in the avenue--MISERABLE! Three day-runs and four "rush-hour" runs have been taken off that line, in recent weeks, and now the word has gone out that there will be no improvement in the street, tracks and service until after Cedar Ave. is given the treatment of the streetcar. The Central Ave. must wait, it seems, until Cedar Ave. is torn up, new sewer put in, tracks and pavement reaid, etc., which means about two years more, at least, of that miserable service, tracks, etc. etc. The 11th ward councilman ought to afford immediate relief in all these things. Get busy, Tom. All the residents in the Central Ave. section of the city are entitled to it and are looking to you for it. It had better be done before election day, too. Getting or claiming to get jobs for individuals will NOT suffice. Residents of the ward want and are entitled to some concrete results as well as the few individuals who get jobs. KRUPPS TO MAKE LOCOMOTIVES Famous German Armament Works To Take Peace Contracts COLOGNE.—The great Krupp firm of armament manufacturers has begun to center its attention on preparations for government contracts for the construction of locomotives and railway cars, according to German trade journals. The firm has agreed to give the government part control of the superintending. Directors of the Krupp works also are endeavoring to obtain contracts in other branches of iron construction in order to bring all of its factories up to at least a part of its activities during the war.

NEW LANGUAGE MAKES STRIDES Esperanto Gets Renewal of Hope at the Thirteenth Annual Congress. TAUGHT IN MANY SCHOOLS New Language Has International Organization—Has Progressed Long Distance Since Its Origin Back in 1887—America Lagging Behind. NEW YORK—Esperanto has been taking a new grip on life in the past year, and after the thirteenth annual congress of the Esperanto Association of North America held in New York City, the faithful followers of universal language are feeling hopeful—despite any popular fallacies with regard to the number "13". It was certainly a living language, soft and harmonious and adequate to the exchange of courtesies between those who had not met in many months, which was spoken informally in the Bahai library, 15 Madison ave., before the meeting of the delegates. The members who have become interested in the language and write to headquarters for literature and information and advice are many times the number who are giving material support to keep things going, and there were times when the difference between a one-cent stamp and a two-cent stamp was a thing to be seriously considered. But friends of the movement were lenient with delays and errors, and now the financial situation is improving. Speaking of the general situation at the present time, officers of the association said that America is lagging very much behind the other nations in the adoption of Esperanto. "In the first place we don't really need it over here the way they do in Europe, and besides, with typical American spirit, we think our own language is better than any other ever invented and it is good enough to answer anywhere. That may be true, but it doesn't help matters, in an international conference. At the peace conference, for example, the President of the United States spoke in a language known to only a fraction of his audience—at least, in such a way that it could be fully appreciated." That the language is finding its way in even over here, however, is evident in the fact that when the chamber of commerce of the State of New York announced the dates of examination for those wishing to qualify as experts in commerce, Esperanto was named as one of the seven languages which would be officially accepted. It may not be long before Esperanto classes are introduced in the schools here along with the other modern languages. It is given either compulsory or optional in the schools of Hungary, Jugo-Slavia, Saxony, Serbia, the district of Muddersfield and other parts of England, certain districts of France, and in many cities where it is as yet a local and not a national movement. Barcelona, Amsterdam', Grenoble and Lille are included in these cities. The international organization maintains bureaus in many cities all over the world for the assistance of travelers, and members attending the last congress said they had traveled through Europe without difficulty, depending on Esperanto to help them out. A man from the South spoke of the number of French families with whom it was possible to be friendly because of a common knowledge of the language. Hundreds of papers are being printed in Esperanto, some of them rather imposing journals, although as far as could be learned no dailies have come into being as yet. Possibly the most interesting feature of these papers is that they run a quantity of advertising, all bought and paid for in the usual way. It is safe to suppose that business and professional houses are not advertising in any publication that has not a fair circulation. Esperanto is still far from being universally spoken, but it has progressed a long distance since it was created by the Russian linguist, Dr. L. L. Zamenhof, back in 1887. THE WAGES OF SIN. Girl on Her First "Party" Drinks of Cup of Blindness. NEW YORK—A young girl aged 19, went out with some young men and women on her first "party" one day last week. She was induced to take a drink of brandy—the first drink she had ever tasted. Three hours later she was taken to a hospital in convulsions. The next day, she was permanently blind. The brandy was made of wood alcohol. The other members of the party only suffered a slight illness. OLD COUPLE'S ROMANCE. Lawyers Take All the Money From Depreciation. Benedict. Aged 103. PROBATIVE BENEDICT, Age 100. SEWARD, Neb. The romance of Mrs. Tickle Convoy, 100宝娃 Omaha woman, and Daniel Kennedy, 103 years old, of Seward, received a bad jolt. Mrs. Convey wrote to Kennedy, sending her picture, and suggesting that he call on her. She hinted at matrimony. Kennedy said to day he was too busy to go to see Mrs. Convey. Besides, his attorneys have taken all his money away from him. Kennedy recently went to New York and other cities, carrying $10,000 cash. Lawyers said this was a too careless way of handling $10,000, and had a guardian appointed for him. So the old Lothario, keenly appreciative of Mrs. Convey's intentions, declared he was too busy. Friends said the truth is he is "broke." "But I would like to see Mrs. Convey," he said, pathetically. "I used to have a nice little home. I would like to have another, and a honeymoon to Ireland. But I guess the lawyers won't let me." There is still hope, however. Kennedy spry invaded a photographer's studio to day and had his picture taken. He said he wanted them right away to "send to a friend." .PRETTY WOMEN IN ADS. There Are No "Stout Ladies" Among Fair, Sax, Sav, Advertisers. CHICAGO, Ill.-Speaking to the Associated Advertising Clubs, Mrs. Christine Frederick criticized the showing of only pretty women in illustrations by advertisers as "wrong psychology." She further asserted that it was absurd to picture women attired in evening crowns painting pantry shelves or using a washing machine while in reception dress. While her contentions with respect to dress have been allowed, Mrs. Frederick's statement relative to psychology has been disputed. It has been pointed out that the attempt of the traders to cater to "stout ladies" has proved a failure. No woman, it is claimed, is willing to admit that she is as stout as the lady usually shown in the illustration, and the attractive features of the dress advertised are overlooked in criticism of the figure. The standard figure is no less conspicuous than the exception, it has been argued, and permits attention to be centered on the article advertised. HE EATS 'EM LIKE CANDY. Kentucklan Walks Streets Munching At Dozen Eggs. PITTSBURGH, Pa.—Quietly strolling along Wylie ave., at 1:00 A.M. eating raw eggs, a man who gave his name as Joseph Bernett, and who said he was from Kentucky, was arrested by a policeman who saw his pockets bulging with something and grew suspicious. "What in the world were you doing with a dozen eggs in your pockets?" Magistrate John Fugassi asked the prisoner. "Just having a little lunch, your honor." Bernett said. "I always eat raw eggs. Yesterday I bought four dozen and when this policeman arrested me I had a dozen left, but I was eating at them." "Rather unusual, but it's new and you're dismissed," the magistrate ordered. BOY SWALLOWS PIN. Prize in Confection Bag is the Cause of Misfortune For Purchaser. PITTSBURGH, Pa.—Swallowing the prize in a bag of confection, Louis Yunkora, 9 years old, of 818 Phineas st., was in a serious condition when his breath was shut off almost entirely. He was rushed to the hospital, where the object was moved in the lad's throat so as to permit breathing. The boy had purchased the prize bag in a nearby store and was eating the contents in his home, shortly after er noon. With some of the confection, he swallowed the prize, believed to have been a small pin. Hospital authorities state his condition is not considered serious. GHOSTLY WHITE FACES. Rouge Banned, New York Women's Fashion, Like, Chalk, Statue Faces Like Chalk Statues. NEW YORK.-The faces of women in New York these days are ghostly in their whiteness. It is startling—even eerie—to the visitor. They are remindful of statues in chalk. Coatings of white powder and liquid give the appearance of the mask of the mime. Only the women of Broadway spotch their white cheeks with red. Whiteness seems to be the fad along the avenue. Rouge is banned. But under the eyes are penciled black shadows. Only one description fits it. It is merely disgusting. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JUNE 4, 1921 Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law Section 26278. "Mob" and "lynching" defin ed. 26279.

Our moq-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of a murder.

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. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v 162 7) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched 'has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian.

Section 6287. 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 law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only one other state (Illinois) in this country has such a law and it is largely a copy of our Ohio law. Here it is—(in the statutes) under the heading be ed. representative of victim of lynching. ury by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. st member of mob. st another county. such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288.

(93 v 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall shall be prosecuted for violence on lynching from prosecutor for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.) 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, except for reasons applicable alike 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. 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 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, and they must do them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcyte for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal joined 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. 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. Very truly yours, C. R. Grant.
