IN UNION WE IS STRENGTH THIRTY-NINTH YEAR George Nurs “Tricked” Out of Preju Our Students Taking High of Detroit—"Jim Crow" THIRTY-NINTH YEAR—No. 30 Look Out, Cleveland! BY Francis H. Warren DETROIT. Mich. — Are southern methods of repression creeping into the north to prevent "negroes" in competition with white people from securing even handled justice? This question is thrust to the front by the experiences of George Nurse, admitted champion speller of the sixth grades in the Detroit Public Schools. The Detroit News recently staged a series of spelling bees in the Detroit Public Schools, of which there are one hundred and fifty-eight, and gave copies of Webster's new dictionary to each champion of their respective schools. Then these school champions competed to see who were the best grade spellers in the city from the fifth grade to the high schools of the city, leaving four grade champions from grades five to eight and one high school champion. George Nurse, the sixth grade champion of Barstow School, with the four other grade and high school champions were left to contest for the honor of being champion of the city of Detroit. Great Interest Shown in Contest. The Majestic theatre, one of Detroit's largest playhouses, was the venue of the final struggle between these five students to win the highest prize in the great contest, and one by one the five grade champions dropped out for misspelling until there were left on the stage little George, Nurse, age 9, champion of the sixth grade, and Justine Pearsall, (white), age 12, champion of the eighth grade. Word after word was given to these two children and each spelled them correctly until the word "peace" (the opposite of war) was given to Justine, which is a single sylable word. Justine spelled the word wrong twice and was given a third opportunity to spell it correctly, and while she was given words The Fortunate Tenth ONLY A TENTH of the people of the United States can have natural gas. Cleveland is one of the lucky communities. The supply is limited and it constantly grows less. FOR THESE REASONS it has been and is our aim to give you our knowledge of natural gas and ask your co-operation in using it. THE PLAN of a sliding scale of rates grew out of our experience. It was proposed by us to help service and conserve supply. THE PRESENT PRICES, which are temporary, do not yield us a fair return, but the sliding scale did bring about good service, as we knew it, would. IN THIS CONNECTION, we again call your attention to our Free Service Department, equipped with modern appliances, where expert demonstrators are always glad to show you how to combine economy with satisfaction. THE EAST OHIO GAS CO. from the grade speller, George was given high school words with several syllables, yet he continued to spell them correctly and the excitement became most intense, as it was feared that a "Negro" boy, with a big mouth, could call all the other students in the city schools of our great city. Discrimination Apparent. Finally George was given the word "Hawaii." He began, saying "capital H," then he stopped and started over and forgot to say capital "H" when he started the second time but spelled the word correctly. He was disqualified for this without being given three opportunities or even two to spell it correctly as had been done with Miss Pearsall. From all of which it appears that there was at least SOME discrimination in favor of little Miss Pearsall and against little George Nurse, for had he been given THREE opportunities to correctly spell "Hawaii" he probably would have been spelling with her until yet, as his principal, who was too ill to attend the final match, was confident that he was the best speller in the city of Detroit and could not be spelled down. Negro Students Stand High. It is for the above reason that we denominate George Nurse champion speller de facto of the City of Detroit while Miss Justine Pearlsall is champion speller dejure, shaving been granted the first prize as champion speller of the city for the reasons above stated. There is one thing, however, in this spelling contest and that is that our students take their place along with students of all other races and attain the highest character of mental development where educated along with other students in the THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1922 same schools, for in Detroit all children in a given district attend the same schools. There are no such things as "white schools" or "colored schools" in this city. Hence the children of the race secure the same benefits from the curriculum and the teaching staff as the children of all other races. There are, as previously stated, one hundred and fifteight champion spellers of their respective schools. Out of these one hundred and forty contested for the grade championships. Eight "Negro" students won their school championship prize, the names of the six as are follows: Geo. Nurse, Barstow School; Lucile Nutall, Duffield School; Claude Brown, Capron School; Wm. Robinson, George School; Robert Berry, Lyon School; Marjorie Pearce, Pilcher School, and two others whose names are not now available. The match was the greatest ever staged in this country. The interest was most intense and the main challenge with the audience of five thousand, mostly white people, with a little black boy on the stage with a white girl contesting for the highest honors, caused the most profound excitement ever seen at a public gathering, and when George was disqualified and the little white girl announced champion spell of Detroit the shout that want up from the great crowd could be heard almost a mile awfully. When asked by the writer if he was disappointed by not winning, he said, "Yes, it seemed to me that I should have been given as many chances to spell a word correctly as were given to the writer on the stage." Then he added: "The words that were given to her seemed much easier than the words that were given to me. I am not complaining though. I want to be a doctor and hope to stay in school until I acquire a medical education." Catholics Draw A Color Line. I said above there were no white or colored schools in Detroit. I wish to qualify that statement to this extent. The family of the champion speller, George Nurse, are Catholics. When they came to Detroit they wanted to have George entered in one of the Catholic parochial schools of this city, but the Bishop told them they "could not afford to attend." The parochial schools they now had but that they would soon have a colored parochial school where he could attend." It was announced five or six years ago that the Catholics (white) intended to have a colored Catholic school in connection with the St. Peter Claver (colored) Catholic church, but a campaign was immediately instituted to put all parochial schools out of business and compel all children of the city to attend the public schools between the ages of seven and sixteen years or until they passed the sixth grade, and a second campaign is now being waged to amend the constitution of Michigan to this effect and will be voted upon in November. Cleveland is "on its way." I understand, to a colored ("jim crow") Catholic school, too. Get ready to fight it! MARLIN. TEXAS NEWS. (Wednesday, Mar. 22, 1922). Fay, 13-year-old daughter of Prof. J.

Marines and Demands Abolition of Martial Law in Haiti. NEW YORK CITY—The Hon. Georges Sylvain, former Haitian Minister to France, officer of the Legion of Honor, officer of public instruction in France, who recently arrived in New York, announces that he has just received word from his country of the imprisonment at hard labor of the editor of a newspaper published in Port au Prince. Mr. Sylvain says: "Mr. Phiteas Lemaire, publisher of The Courier Haitian, was tried before a military court of the American Occupation in Haiti, Feb. 21, '22, and sentenced to six months at hard labor and a fine of $300 on March 4, for having received and published a news item telling of a brutal attack upon a citizen by a Haitian lieutenant of gendarmerie. The Courier Haitian, as its only comment on this story, said it was difficult to believe such acts could still be perpetrated in sight and knowledge of the entire population. Whining seems to me in the report of what occurred before the event court, indicates that Mr. Lemaire was convinced that a false rumor had been spread or that there had been any refusal on his part to retract in the event the rumor might prove to have been false. The worst feature of the imprisonments under martial law in Haiti is that the officers concerned are both judges and parties to the trial; and the hard labor invariably accompanying prison sentences has to be executed in company with the worst criminals. That is why we insist upon the immediate abolition of martial law in Haiti." Mrs. Sallie Morrison, of 3112 Newton court, has been ill for several weeks.

IN UNION IS STRENGTH FEDERATED COUNCIL Of Churches Draws Color-Line in the Haynes Appointment The South's "Race Relations—Propaganda" What Our People Here in the North Will Not Accept — Dr. Byrd's Plain Statement of Facts. (Special to The Gaazette.) JERSEY CITY, N. J.—The Federated Council of Churches has appointed two Colored secretaries and it is reported that their salaries depend upon our churches, and if they fail to raise them the two men will have to discontinue work. If this is true, both of these gentlemen should have refused the appointment in the beginning. If the Federated Council can raise the Dr. Wm. A. Byrd salaries of white secretaries, it should also raise the salaries of every other secretary. The race relations within the Council needs clarifying. There should be one purse for the Council and all hired servants paid from that purse. A levy of sufficient sums to support the entire work should be made upon colored and white denominations. Monies of all races should go toward all races all our churches in this country should present such appointments. Besides if our churches desired men to go what Mr. Haynes and his co-workers will do and these men are to be paid for by our churches, the Council had no need of appointing them but should have left it to our churches themselves. When will this unjust color-attitude cease? Is it possible that the Federated Churches are still working upon a segregation basis? It should also be remembered that 'The Race Rations-Propaganda' as run from Athens and will be held in the north. Race relations in the South has for its main object the getting of Negroes to accept peaceably the treatment of southern whites in every walk of life. The two races in the South know each other like a book. The white race makes it plain everywhere that a Negro is not to sit on equality with a white man anywhere, not even in church. No attempt is being made by these federated churches to get the white South to respect the constitution and uphold the law. It is the southern point of view that is supreme in the Council. That means that it will not be accepted in the north. It is unaccepted and unworthy of any people. Southern christians in our race have accepted this condition and are trying to get along under the prescription. Negroes north of "Mason and Dixon line" will NOT accept in church or state the attitude of the southern church. It is the attitude of the southern church in every denomination that keeps religious bodies of the same faith apart and this hostile attitude is toward rejection of our Christians as their equal. The movement is a farce of far as the race issue is concerned. Our men who accept that attitude are not wanted in the north as secretaries. The boys and girls of the north who are being educated side by side with all races, on equality, must not have the teachings of any set of men who are satisfied with race-discrimination and the cringing and syphonic spirit manifested by these two men of the race must not contaminate the manhood and manhood of the north. There is a range of race-relations activity everywhere. The coming to the north of southerners, white (Continued on page 2) DO YOU KNOW WHY --- An Actor Is Without Presige in the Theater!

A Soviet leader declares that the red flag of Russia still waves unconquered. The people are so nearly starved they haven't strength to haul it down. The socialists, who include a great many college professors, insist that enjoyment of liberty of speech entitles them to teach their doctrines in the public schools. But if they were supporting the schools instead of being supported by them, would they for one moment consent that anti-socialists use the schools for propaganda purposes? Not much. --- Senator Hitchcock, ranking Democrat on the Foreign Relations committee of the Senate, went into conference with the closest friends of Wilson and Cox and then made an extended attack on the treaties negotiated at the conference on limitation of armaments. Hitchcock would get along better if he would choose wiser advisers. A Democratic paper in the far West says that the Democrats in the Senate, in opposing the ratification of the armaments treaties, are "headed for a blunder." Well, did you ever know a time when the spokesmen of the Democratic party were not headed for a blunder? Three weeks ago Ward 11 Central Body appointed a special committee to confer with Tractioner Holcomb relative to again starting the work on the street and street-car tracks in Central Ave. The result of the conference is apparent and has been for two weeks. The Kohler administration, as is generally understood, has "hamstrung" (politically) Councilman Tom Fleming with the result that he has "gone out" with the rest of "Starlight's babies," and very properly, too. BALFOUR'S TRIUMPH There is talk in England of making Mr. Balfour prime minister in succession to Lloyd George. One London paper remarks that he has rendered his country "what will perhaps, be reckoned the greatest service in a career of public duty that has few equals for length or distinction." The British people are open to congratulations if they take the view of that editor as to Mr. Balfour's work in Washington. He did win a triumph, but hardly in the sense in which British statesmen have been seeking to win DO YOU KNOW WHY -- LOOK! THERE'S JOB'S LIONEL POOT, LIGHT'S THE AGENT DOCTOR! victories in the past and thereby earn the plaudits of their countrymen. Mr. Balfour threw his powerful influence in favor of the American proposals in every vital question coming before the conference, but in so doing he virtually abandoned British policies that have stood for years. In accepting the naval reduction program, Great Britain renounces her time-honored claim to superior strength on the seas; in signing the Four-power pact, the British-Japanese alliance was scrapped; in agreeing to the Shantung settlement, the British concession to Wei-hai-wei was returfed to China; and in assenting to the American open-door policy in China, Great Britain limited to that extent her traditional effort to extend British spheres of influence to all parts of the world. Heretofore British statesmen have been acclaimed in proportion to the material advantages they have won for the crown. Mr. Balfour's triumph involves the loss of naval supremacy, an international alliance and foreign concessions, but he has gained what is infinitely more valuable, the good will of the United States and of the world for his efforts in behalf of world peace and better understanding. The British people do right in honoring him for it. Largest A. M. E. College COLUMBIA, S. C.—J. A. Langford, architect and mechanical engineer, Washington, D.

Such was the prediction made by Howard Dean, professor of chemistry at Park College, Parkville, Mo., speaking before the Missouri Valley Hardware Society. Professor Dean said he already had succeeded in reducing the starch of a potato to sugar through chemical treatment. He asserted that by feeding certain plants on formaldehyde they can be made to develop sugar and starch. He said that investigations now being made by chemists show that plants manufacture compounds that are not normal to them. These investigations, he said, are being continued and chemists are diligently searching the leaves of plants in an attempt to find the agent which converts the carbon dioxide in the air and the moisture into plant products. When the secret is discovered—and of its early discovery he is confident—he said he would possess an unlimited source of energy. The point he brought out was that the possession of that secret would enable man to convert the sun's energy to his own use in any way he desires. Then it would be possible, he asserted to fill the Sahara Desert will plant life; to grow any plant so that Girls' Contest Fears' Infielders. a name, last year.

TREAT HEART NEW WAY Surgeons Have Daring Method for Valvular Disease Dr. Tussier, a collaborator of Dr. Correl, recently described a bold and original attempt to treat valvular disease of the heart by surgical method. While we admire the skill and daring manifested in this and similar surgical explots, it is well to remember that they have been made possible by the researches of the infamous viva sectionists who are held up to the public execution by certain supersensitive souls. These researches have enabled us not only to modify the natural conditions of the heart's action, but even to revive a heart that is apparently dead. This resurrection of the heart is shown in the following striking experiment: A frog's heart is excised and, after it has ceased to beat, an artificial circulation is established in it, either with defibrillated blood or with a wholly artificial serum. In a few seconds the heart begins to beat again, if the beats of this "isolated" heart are recorded on a rotating cylinder by appropriate mechanism the record shows that they exactly resemble the beats of a living frog's heart in rythmic frequency and amplitude. A highly refined and perfect apparatus of this kind devised by Pap George J. Tate (Continued from page 1) and black, has raised an issue. This issue must be settled, the northern attitude prevailing, and not the South's idea of "race superiority," for we do not believe in the superiority of any race, as to anchorage, as to the South in resenting wrong perpetrated upon them, is nil, and the Negroes of the North and elsewhere will not accept the attitude of their southern brother. We are willing to support Mr. Haynes and his associate if the northern idea is carried out here and northern men direct his activities. If we are to accept the say of any relictory body, that gets upon the attitude of the South, then we say, NONE OF IT! We believe in the equality of all men in religion, before the law and in the sight of God. can permit of the study of the effect of various solutions on the heart of warm blooded animal. The heart is electrically stimulated and performs its functions as though in the body. The solutions are passed through the heart as the blood when the heart is performing its offices in the living animal. In this apparatus the arrangement or the two pressure tanks is particularly inconvenient. The pumps permit them to be raised and lowered as necessary demands and the connection of an air pipe through which the solution flows insures a practically uniform pressure. Animal Cannot See Better at Night Than Days There are two false ideas regarding the cat which are held by many people—one that the feline can see better at night than in the daytime, and out it is able to see in perfect darkness, the other that a cat, if given the opportunity, will draw the breath from sleeping children. Though a cat cannot see at all in perfect darkness it is able to move about with some ability with the assistance of its whiskers, or feet, and its surefootedness. Because a cat's eyes are sensitive to the ultra violet of the spectrum, and the pupil is capable of great expansion it can see better in the dusk than a human beine. The cat uses its whiskers to feel out objects before and about it. Because of its remarkable足 footedness it is able to avoid striking objects when but a few inches away from them through the warning conveyed to its brain by the feelers. Thus a cat can outwit and avoid the most valuable trained dog in the darkness. Scientists say the idea that a cat will draw the breath from sleeping children is absurd. Likeing a warm clean place in which to sleep, a cat will often slip into a child's crib, and it the crib is narrow may happen to take up a position on top of the baby's weight of a good sized cat is ten pounds, while the weight of the average baby is eight pounds, and at four months only twelve and a half pounds. If we imagine a proportionate weight in warm flesh and soft fur on top of our own bodies we necessarily imag the serious consequences. AUTO HAZARDS REDUCED WASHINGTON.—The hazards of the automobile are being reduced. The motor vehicle has undergone many improvements in the last decade and more are coming. Official figures show a steady decline in the ratio of fatalities to the number of cars in operation. Automobile deaths per car were 0.025 in 1914, and have been reduced to 0.199 in Figures the year 1920 in Detroit and New York city show that the former registered one less fatality due to automobiles than in 1919, and New York's toll was twenty-one less than the 1919 mark. The reduction of .50 per cent in five years in the ratio of fatalities to the number of cars shows that the public is quickly adapting itself to the problems of congestion, and continued progress in motor safety is confidently looked for. Automobile manufacturers feel, however, that the car facilities nationally presents a situation which calls for further strenuous effort in the minimizing of hazard. Offer Yearly Prixe.

REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an expenditure is the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth— Stephen Glirard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising.—W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. DO YOU advertise? While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persi- ent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." 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."

Don't Throw Away Your Copy of THE GAZETTE After Reading it, but Give It to a Friend or an Acquaintance who Might Subscribe After Reading a Copy of It A Marvel in Languages and Learning, Says Miss Marie Jensen, 'Methodist Missionary Just Returned. NEW YORK CITY.—Negro intellectual possibilities has another example to add to its long list in the person of Mutumbu, a fourteen-year old boy of the Alunda tribe in "Darkest Africa," according to Miss Marie Jensen, missionary to the Congo under the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal church, just returned to this country. This boy is a native of one of the most isolated parts of the Dark Continent. His home is at Musumba-wa-Mwata Yamwo, (City of the Prince of Death), capital town of the Alunda tribe of the Congo Beige. It is situated more than 300 miles northeast of the northernmost end of the Cape-to-Cairo Railroad at Bukama on the Upper Congo River. And there is no way of travelling through this territory save by foot or bicycle through the jungle paths. It requires a month's steady trekking, by caravan of native carriers, march with packs of baggage upon their backs, to reach Musumba. At the age of five years Mutumbu was taken in by Dr. Arthur L Piper; the new medical missionary at Musumba. Being an orphan, Mutumbu has since resided in the Piper household and the daily contact with the missionaries at the Methodist station—which has since been founded there and is in operation—has developed the mind of Mutumbu far beyond the average child of his years. The little boy, did his best to be of service about the new missionaries, was never worked at all kinds of manual labor to establish some form of civilization in that wild land. He added in the kitchen and garden, ran errands for the workman building the houses and school-building of sun-dried brick. When the mission station began active work for the good of the people about, Mutumbu had made himself a part of the institution. He attended school and studied assiduously, and worked to learn to aid Nurse Jensen in the dispensary where his people came to have their wounds dressed and their ill healed. Speaks Seven Languages. several Languages. Mutumbu was picked up a variety of learning languages which he is cleaned from the white folk. He speaks five other native languages Mbundu, Chituba, Swahili, Blchokwe and Kanyok, in addition to his own own Alunda) and English. He writes in both—the latter language well. Whenever strange chiefs come to the mission from the far depths of the jungle speaking in a strange tongue which confuses the regular interpreters of the missionaries, someone always says: "Call Mutumbu; he knows." And Mutumbu was called the "pinch" interpreter. So well has Mutumbu learned the lore of the gospel as it is taught in the mission station that he is often called upon to lead the services at the little mis- BULLOCK FREED AGAIN. Matthew Bullock has been set free by Canada. North Carolina is deemed unfit to mete out justice toward Matthew Bullock. What a commentary upon the civilization of the South. The governor of North Carolina "believes" justice can be meted out in his state. The governor may be fair-minded but he has no power to direct the biased minds of judges and foreworn judges. The governor can not protect his own life when mob of his race gets its appetite sharpened for blood. Southern white men are not to be trusted with the just administration of law. Every governor of every state outside of the South should consider this slap of Canada at American race injustice. No colored man should be returned to a southern state for any crime because by so doing he is sent back to be murdered or to be given farcical trial. The South must change its course to be ostracized by all lovers of law. According to the Associated Press, Rev. "Billy" Sunday of acrobatic evangelistic fame, while orating in Spartinburgh, S. C., cried out in one of his frenzied utterances touching the race issue: "I believe in white supremacy." "Billy" Sunday stopped playing baseball, as a profession, to take up evangelism in order that he might "save souls." His doctrines and beliefs he has communicated to be preaching in, it seems. There is, apparently, nothing fixed about him and his beliefs but a big pocket when the show is over. "Billy" Sunday knows that "white supremacy" means a reign of terror by southern white brutes out of which comes lynching with all of its horrors. "White supremacy" means disregard of all law, proscription, ballet-box training, ballet training every crime known to a civilized world. "Billy" Sunday believes in THIS, according to the Associated Press. Yes, he believes in more—he believes in adapting his preaching to the itching ears of his hearers regardless of their mental attitude towards right, it is said. A sharp eye should be kept on this "commercial" evangelist while he is in the South for fear he might put his alleged belief into practice by helping to create an order to help satirize the threat of the bloody white supremacists. "BILLY" SUNDAY. sion church, and he does so with a simple dignity that is quite impressive. When Bishop Johnson of Africa visited Musumba he made Mutumba his protege and has done much for him in the gifts of books and other means of self-improvement. Mutumba is anxious to get a real education, believing that he can the better aid his people in this way. Working with Miss Jensen supervising, Mutumba translated fifty bible stories and more than a hundred hymns into the native language. He was of material aid to Rev. T. B. Brinton who translated the first three books he has written, and he has successfully translated the entire life of Christ. He learned to use a typewriter. When he was given a Bible of his very own, brought to him by Miss Jensen from Bukama, Mutumba, was overjoyed. He often reads it to groups of his people his own age and adults, for he is honored and listened to by all. Wants a Pair of Shoes. Since arriving in this country Miss Jensen has received a letter from Mutumubu. He wants her to bring him just one thing from civilization, since she can't bring him a modern education in a box. He wants a pair of shoes so that he can walk to the jungle to other villages and teach his people. He tells her that his people have been sick in large numbers and Dr. Plper treats more than thirteen hundred cases a month. Miss Jensen is trying to take back some other things to Africa. She is studying simple methods of spinning and weaving cotton into cloth. The situation at Musumba is pitable in the extreme. There is very little money and few things for barter in that wild country. The people only earn about a franc a day, or about twenty cents in normal times, and seven cents at the present rates of exchange, and cloth there, when it can be procured, is held by the Portuguese trader for something like two dollars a yard. It is only the filestimel kind of material, lasting but a short time. Miss Jensen believes that if she can procure a few hand looms and spinning wheels she can teach her young women converts to make cotton into cloth and unclothed people. In this way she hopes to start the industry of cloth-making, thus providing a means of raising the economic standard of Christian natives, providing them with a means of honest livelihood. Many of the Christians at Musumba station are ashamed to come to church because they have no clothes save a few skins of goats or wild animals. Miss Jensen has been studying the methods employed at Tuskegee Institute in expectation of adapting them to the mission school and industrial training center destined to grow up at Musumba about the mission station. OPPOSE TRADING BILL. Congress is * told That "Futures" Help Keep Prices Steady. WASHINGTON. — Enactment of the Tincher grain futures trading bill would act as a "deterrent" to the annual absorption of the country's grain production and would force a sluggish and low market at harvest time, Julius P. Barnes of New York, war-time head of the United States Grain Corporation, declared in discussing the measure before the Senate Agricultural committee "Countries producing in a three months' harvest all their supply of flour, with as much more to export," said Mr. Barnes, "need all of the absorbing power available to maintain a steady level of prices, instead of having prices lower at the end of the market-kilogram year, when the market immediately after the harvest as is the case in India and in Russia." Congress should direct its efforts at enlarging the warehousing facilities of the farmers, Mr. Barnes continued, and should attempt methods of marketing which would enlarge competition rather than restrict it. "In opinion" he added, "this bill is drawn with harm the farmer instead of help him." The witness said that the co-operative marketing movement among grain growers "should be welcomed by any reasonable man." While voicing doubt that the co-operative system would prove successful, Mr. Barnes said that "if the co-operative association can perform for society a marketing function at less cost, the established trade then should and will displace those trades." The induction into office of a president is always followed by many appointments to office of friends of the executive. President Harding has named George B. Christian, Jr., who was for years his next door neighbor at Marion, as his secretary. The fact that Mr. Christian formerly was a Democrat, did not deter the president. Mr. Christian used to serve as secretary of Democratic state conventions as well, and his for horn calls as it rolled out roll calls fourth exclamations of attenuation from delegates and feelings of jealousy from others in the conventions not so well blessed with vocal organs. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., MARCH 18, 1922. HEAD OF REPUBLIC GETS $10 YEARLY PRESIDENT OF ANDORRA, FARM ER, EARNS HIS LIVING BY TILLING SOIL Capital of Country Has 500 People Neutrality Stand Announced "The strangest Republic in the world," is what a writer in the New York Sun calls Andorra, which has 500 inhabitants, and which lies in the Pyrenees, between France and Spain. It is about eightteen miles wide and sixteen miles long, from north to south, and it is so difficult of access that no railroad runs near it. The early history of this small country is unknown. In 1805 Louis the Debonair laid siege to a city situated to the south of Andorra and the Andorrans, under Marc Almau gaver, aided the French. As a reward a charter was given them and they were allowed to work out their own destiny unmolested by their more powerful neighbors. The age of the country as a republic is thus fixed at 1,110 years. It is seldom visited by travelers, but those who have been there say that, as far as appearances are concerned, there is nothing to indicate that the customs of the people have ever changed. It is a republic which has never achieved anything in its long and vague history; a republic which has never produced a page of literature, nor a bar of music, nor a painting; a republic which has never had a place in the councils of Europe and has never asked for one; a nation which has never produced an ambitious man. The form of government is unique. There is no nobility, and there are no class distinctions, legal or other. The president of the country is a farmer who depends on his own labor for his living. Every four years the people elect twenty four representatives, whose business it is to govern the country whenever there is any governing to be done. These representatives choose one of their number for president. His salary is $0.50 per month, or about $10. Representatives get $2.50 a year. Although on a rule the people are named, and that is practically known, there is a conception on the part of the people paid government of officials to the advantage of the religious opportunities for craft, reed, a very miscellaneous reactive sometimes requires $2.50 through a single year's grafting, thus doubling his income. The school system is regulated by the French, and French is taught in the schools, but the people speak their own language, Andorran. The total cost of the national school system is $180 a year, which Andorra pays to the French government. The capital is Andorra la Vella, with a population of 500, a city in which is located the house of representatives, which is also used for school house, jail, town hall, court house and hotel. There are no police, every citizen having the right to arrest. Aside from farming the main occupation of the Andorranis is smuggling, which is not regarded as a crime, though the French and Spanish governments think differently. Owing to the mountainous nature of the country there are very few prosperous farms, but since the forests have been cut away there is much land suitable for grazing. The only roads are bridle paths. One main highway leads, from Andorra to the high road to Seo de Urgel. The main characteristic of the people, aside from their dense ignorance, is their lack of ambition. They refuse to use tools which were not used by their ancestors, and they have no idea of what is commonly called progress. A man who tries to get ahead is looked upon as mentally unbalanced. One native, who had traveled in France, undertook to attract visitors to Andorra by opening a hotel near a fine spring, but he could get no assistance for the people do not welcome visitors. A few weeks ago the little republic drew the attention of the world to itself when it announced a policy of neutrality, issuing a proclamation somewhat similar to President Wilson's. President Pedro Font of Andorra sent a letter to President Wilson, in which he praised his stand on the question of neutrality, and, then spoiled the effect by displaying his ignorance in the concluding passage, which is as follows: "Both of us are neutral. However, I know you have been generous and charitable to the Belgians and other victims of the war. Imitating your example, I have sent several cases of blankets and tobacco to the French soldiers." The Microbe Man. CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — It can scarcely have been without intention that Dr. Harlow Shapley, the new Harvard astronomer, waited until Dr. Einstein had embarked before telling us how much smaller we are than we have thought and how much further our earth is from being the centre of the universe. Actually, we are "one thousand times less important," than any one has hitherto supposed. Some of us have already adjudged this world as nothing. But when Professor Shapley informs us that we are "something like 360,000,000,000,000,000 miles," removed from the centre of the universe" our mathematics are not perturbed; we could go on writing three noughts and a comma with indefinite trust in the Harvard astronomer. Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder—The Work of a Member of The Race—Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law. Our mob-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 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 Section 6278.

(93 v. 161 2). lynching from prosecution 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 has enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1834: Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280.

A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 182 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a p.srson dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if such sum shall be applied to such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and 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 generation. If there be a 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. 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 8.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynchings, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v 162 8.) Section 6284. 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. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) 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 person becoming such a 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 mob came, 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 lynching from prosecution for homi- cide or assault for engaging therein. (98 v 163 12.) 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 dollars nor more than fifty dollars 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 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. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Mised 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: 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 occasions 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. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CONTEN D FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscription for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however much we continue to continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardi RACE PREJUDICE! —H. G. Wells. OUS! Appetizing T CHEESE INS IN LOAVES K YOUR GROCER. Delicious!
