Grand Spring Vaudeville and Band Concert GIVEN BY The Ladies' Silver Seal Band at The Temple Theater E. 55th St. near Central Ave. MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 10, 1922 General Admission, 25 cents. Reserved Seats, 35 cents. LESS GAS MORE USERS THE NUMBER of natural gas consumers in Cleveland has INCREASED 22 per cent in the past six years. THE AVAILABLE SUPPLY of natural gas has DECREASED 39 per cent in that time. THE INCREASE IN CONSUMERS would have been much greater if service conditions had permitted us to make extensions. SERVICE HAS BEEN BETTERED by the upward scale of prices, but the upward scale of prices has not added and cannot add to the available supply of gas. THE UPWARD SCALE of prices simply spreads out the available supply, giving good service to all consumers. A PROPER sliding scale of prices is one which also assures the company a fair return on its investment. The present one, which is temporary, does not.

"ENSLAVED AND' FLEECED" By America, Says An Unbiased French Writer—The Situation In Huiti As It Exists Paris, France.—An admirable statement of the political situation in Haiti appeared in L'Illustration Paris, Feb. 4. It is encouched 1 few words, but with rare clearness and directness, and the last sentence suggests the lack of confidence on the part of French opinion in "the American spirit of fairness and justice." A full and literal translation is as follows: "It is necessary to go back to July, 1915, to explain the situation of the republic of Haiti, which the enthusiasm of Michelet called 'The Black France of the Antilles.' After a series of revolutions seven or eight presidents overthrown or assisted in a period of four years the dictator, Guillaume Sam, routed his turn, took refuge in the French legation, from which the populace snatched him to put him to death. France immediately took measures to avenge this outrage; but out of respect to the Monroe Doctrine it informed the United States, which gave its guardian for the establishment of order. By virtue of this agreement marines occupied the Haitian capital for some hours. After their departure the American squadron and important forces which took possession of Port-au-Prince and then of the principal cities. "Rear Admiral Caperton from that time assumed the functions of dictator, proclaimed martial law, called out the two chambers, had them elect a president (Aug. 12, 1915) who hastened to sign a treaty of friendship between the two republics. Haitian independence, for which the Negroes of Toussaint L'Ouverture and of desgaines had paid with their blood, was no longer more than a memory. "Revolts burst out, which American troops recruited from the Nero-hating regions of the United States, repressed cruelly. But the coming into power of President Harding reanimated the hopes of the proteges, for he had, in the course of the electoral campaign, severely criticized the actions of Mr. Wilson's cabinet toward the unhappy republic, and promised that a commission would investigate the abuses committed by the army of occupation. The day after his election, a Haitian literary man well known in France, M. Georges Sylvain, officer of the Legion of Honor, in spite of the pitiless censure of the press, and of public opinion, formed a patriotile union, which began an ardent campaign, not only in Port-au-Prince, but in the United States, with the assis- It Takes Time to Repair a Complete Wreck! 1913 to 1921 FER THE LOVE O'MIKE DANGER SCUND YOUR HONKER!

"True to his 'word,' President Harding appointed the promised commission whose landing at Port-au-Prince was greeted by an exhibition of plaques expressing the wishes of the population, and its ardent desire to become again free and independent.

COMMISSIONER TIGERT ON EDUCATION He says Economic Interests of the Country are Involved in the Education of our People --- Washington, D.C. That the material and moral interests of the whole country are involved in the question of our education is the substance of an interview given out by Dr. John L. Tigert, F. S. Commissioner of Education, on his return from a recent conference in Nashville with the heads of the twenty-eight Aro American state and federal land-grant colleges. The fact that Dr. Tigert is a native of Tennessee and has always lived in the South adds significance to his statement, which follows in tellt: "The neglect of 'Negro' education has resulted in an immensitableness to the country. It has affected not only the material prosperity, especially on the South, where the 'Negro' population is greatest, but has likewise affected the standard of living and the character of citizenship, and has injured the morale of our people. If we had long ago made provision for the technical education of our 'Negro' population, the increase in the value of our products, both 'agricultural and manufacturing, would have been incalculably great. The intangible and immaterial benefits which would have accrued can scarcely be estimated, nor can we form any estimate of what would have been the effect upon the 'Negro' himself by way of encouragement, arousing his ambition and increasing his value as a citizen."

J.-Negroes of America are dissatisfied. There may be a negligible few who are satisfied with the status quo of the race but the great majority is not. The dissatisfaction is due to the American attitude toward Negroes us such. America is acting, in its social, political and economical capacity, as the leader of the world. In all of these capacities she considers the colored race inferior. The laws of the land in the hands of men possessing this bias are not administered impartially. The composition of America that leads in its prescription of the Negro is the south. The policy there is to refuse to recognize the Negro as a man and treat him as a being that has no right to the respect that other persons enjoy. Not only in the south is this true of southerners but everywhere they go they take this masty bigotted spirit with them. Now let it be known that the Negro does not consider the white race superior to his because it is white. Colored men of character acknowledge no superiors anywhere! This fact must be recognized by America, and the sooner the better. The rights of colored men in America must be protected and respected. The unwarranted assumption of white persons that they are superior to colored people and must use the public for their satisfaction and deny the colored race the same right, will not be tolerated! There is in the minds of many colored people that many white southerners are much the inferiores of many fine colored people. The lack of respect which many southerners gloat, the hypothetical morality that they preach and yet live like beasts, have made colored people of worth look upon them as God's lowest creatures. Their white skins don't alter the situation but emphasizes their inborn inferiority in view of the superior advantages that have been their for centuries. Then, too, the lives of colored people have not and are not now held sacred nor protected in that section of the country. Any white person may kill a colored man in many parts of the south and he is protected by other whitemen who have the execution of the law in their hands. Justice for the colored man, in matters at law, is no longer thought of by courts or juries in the south. For this, we shall no longer stand. The attempt to stop lynching, particularly in the south, is the first legal stop taken to change the status of colored citizens there from that of serfs to that of men. The old story that colored men banker after white women is another falsehood simply used to solidify white men in their political compare to keep the Negro from enjoying full American citizenship. In fact the whole fight against the race is based on the "right of white men to protect their women," as they put it. If protection they mean the right to be lauched any white woman they may and to practice the same upon colored women with impunity to colored men to resent it but ready to join in mobs to destroy a colored man if he is suspicioned of doing the like to white women. For this we shall not stand. The banker after women, to destroy their prince, is the past history of south white men for the last four hundred years and the history of colored men toward white women has been one of marked respect and consideration. Where there have been instances to the contrary it was invariably mutual. Southerners have made laws in the southern states that forbid white and black marrying and yet these same montebanks have disdainfully lived in lust and adultery with women of every race that live in the south. This must stop. In the federal government, the same policy of excluding Negroes from the benefits of the government in the south has been carried and, unfortunately for certain spindles, this policy is being largely followed. The federal government must change its southern policy or there will be trouble. In Washington, every man should be the equal of every other man. The commissioners that rule Washington and allow the practices of the infamous south to prevail there should be removed and in their places a set of men elected or appointed who will be able to make the nation's capital the home of real liberty. This present Administration must take some steps to do this. Let the world know that we are dissatisfied with American hypocrisy and American disgrace for law. (Rey.) Wm. A. Byrd.

MARCH 25. 1922. GOOD ENOUGH FOR HENRY Some time ago Henry Ford said that the chief trouble with the railroads was their stocks and bonds and he advocated throwing them away. But he didn't throw away any of his own. He had just bought a controlling interest in a railroad but he did not get all the stock. He evidently wanted the minority stockholders to throw their stock away, or sell it to him, for he devised a scheme to lease the railroad to a company entirely owned by members of his own family. After an injunction suit had been brought by minority stockholders on the allegation that this was a scheme to squeeze them out, Ford abandoned the project. What a magnificent dictator Ford would be if he had the chance. And, by the way, it is well that we have a careful and courageous business man at the head of the War Department which receives and considers offers for the Muscle Shoals power plant. We don't want this squeezing out business to go too far. --- BEN FRANKLIN SAYS— Karl Radek, spokesman for the Russian soviet, commenting on the refusal of the United States to participate in the Genoa conference, declares that this action "has reduced the Genoa conference to little more than a chatterfest." Apparently, then, it was the intention of Europe, had we become a party to the conference, to do all the talking while Uncle Sam was to do all the work and shoulder all the responsibility. "Europe will continue to wallow in her own blood," continues Radek, "until America emerges from her period of aloofness and joins in the active work of reconstruction." This corroborates our view. Certain portions of Europe prefer to wallow and to have America do the active work. However, America still indorses the maxim of her foremost sage, Ben Franklin: "God helps them that help themselves," and if Europe would display more of a determination to help herself there would be more reason why we could aid her. As it is we have loaned her billions and fed her millions. --- TRAINS MEN FOR DOMINIONS It has long been apparent that one solution of British industrial troubles and an abater of the class clashes which seem to be perennial in the Tight Little Island is to be found in emigration to the dominions and the consequent easing up of the pressure of population. Exclusive of Ireland, the population of Great Britain is about 40,000,000 in an area of $8,000 square miles—a trifle larger than Minnesota, which has a population under 2,500,000. But, including the increments of the Great War, the British Empire possesses, roughly, 14,000,000 square miles of territory, much of its virgin soil, within the bosom of which is locked untold wealth, simply awaiting development. British emigrants at present and for some years past have been of two classes workingmen who want to better their position in life and the ne'er do well sons of the middle and upper classes. What the dominions want are trained brains, and a movement is now on foot and in operation to supply them through the medium of the British public schools, the leading exponent of the movement being the so-called Bluecoat school at Christ's Hospital near London. Since the days when free trade put an end to profitable farming in Great Britain, up to two years ago, agriculture was looked down upon in Great Britain. To suggest that a boy should emigrate to the dominions and take up farming would have been laughed at be- fore the war. Now, however, at the suggestion and under the advice of the agents general for Ontario and Western Australia, Christ's Hospital has started a farm school department for the express purpose of training boys for colonial life. With such a program in full swing, the colonies and dominions will each year receive men trained and educated for the development of the resources controlled by the Empire and the effect of this in removing England from the list of debtor nations can well be imagined. HOW NOW, LADIES! During the campaign, last October, three well-known women of ward 11, who ought to have known better, signed a small "Star". Tom circular, which was distributed throughout the ward, in which protest was made against the editor of The Gazette's exposing the vile immoral and miserable living conditions then existing, and still existing to an entirely too large degree, in that ward and vicinity — "the Central Avenue district." Although the new local (Kohler) administration has afforded the good residents of that and other sections of the city marked relief from the terrible conditions referred to, there is still "room" for much greater relief as the following attests: Gilas Gross. 24, 2365 E. 4th St., was fatally wounded, Monday night, Mar. 20, in a house at 2380 E. 33d St., following an argument arising from a card game in which he had been playing, according to police, who are searching for a man who fired the shot. Witnesses say the missing man charged Gross with cheating after Gross had won about $50. When Gross struck at him the man drew a revolver shot, according to the story. The palate just below the heart. Gross died at Charity hospital an hour later without regaining consciousness. Charged with gambling, intoxication or violation of the liquor law, 137 persons caught in the draget of precinct vice supervision over the week end were arraigned in police court. Monday morning, Mar. 20. Over half of them were taken in gambling raids when three precincts "cleaned house." In two gambling raids on an apartment at 2211 E. 30th St., police caught fifty-three, late Saturday night and Sunday night, Mar. 18 and 19. When the patrol wagon was hit, the doors and windows of the apartment fairly cut off with fleeing humanity. Cut off in a dash down the fire escape several men jumped to the ground. Others dropped from second story windows or sought the roof. For the next half hour police were busy hauling men out from under beds and out of closets in adjoining apartments! Although a few escaped Patrolmen Churchfield, Emil Koryta and F. F. Kowalskey, of the fourth precinct, who conducted the raid, were able to fill a patrol wagon sack. Five of the men caught, and who were released second raid there Sunday evening, Mar. 19. Two wagons were used and were packed to capacity. Patrolmen William Simader and C. H. Albert were in charge. Men booked as Allen Ponder, 2211 E. 30th St. and Joe Brown, 2358 Marion Ave. are charged with suffering gambling. The third precinct had nine charged with gambling to its credit after a raid at 810 Central Ave. last week, Friday evening, Mar. 17. All of this in ward 11, too, and it does not even begin to tell the true story of the dope business, bootlegging, gambling, bawdy-house business and a dozen other concomitant evils, complained of so bitterly by the good people during the campaign, last fall, that exist in ward 11 to a larger degree than in any other ward in the city. And in the face of conditions much worse than they are now, and God knows they are far too bad even yet, those three women signed that "Star" Tom "protest" circular. Lord, have mercy! We cannot for the life of us see how they could even make themselves do such a thing. Acmes and Cedars Win The local basketball season closed in a blaze of glory at Eagles hall, Monday night, a happy crowd of 700 enjoying the games. From the first, it was apparent that the All Stars were no match for the Acmes and they early rushed into a commanding lead. Final score, the losers, while Hampton and Reed led for the Acmes, the latter in particular featuring with several remarkable throws. The Tokalons and Cedar Y boys, a mixed team, put up a hard-fought contest of the court game, that was only decided in the last two minutes of play. The first half ended even at 8 al, but in the second half of the Y boys gradually into a lead. Pete Willett and Cilvette of the Cedars, kept the crowd in an uproar with their great playing, while Al Williams was the luminary of the Toks. Score, 19 to 14. Hubbard A. "Future Great" Hubbard A Future Girl Ann Arbor, Mich.-In De Hart Hubbard, age 19, U. of M. authorities believe they have an athlete who will be breaking inter-collegiate records before long. Fost, head coach, recently referred to Hubbard as a boy they were pleased to have at Michigan and stated he intended to see that he got a square deal. Hubbard is a graduate of Walnut Hills High School, Cincinnati. He plays basketball, baseball can hurdle and jump the javelin. He has done 100 yards in ten seconds and holds a local broad jump record with a leap of 23 feet, 6 inches. At the age of 16, he could jump 22 feet, 8 inches, without training. Under proper coaching here it is believed he can approach Gourdin's world record of 25 feet, 3 inches. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., MARCH 25, 1922.

CLAIMS MUSIC AFFECTS HAIR OF PLAYER Flowers of Horses Likely to Become Prematurely Bald—Action of Strings Less Severe If you want to escape badness don't play the cornet or trombone, but confine your musical efforts to the piano, violin, harp, violoncello or double bass. This advice sums up the creat ing and extremely important d scope of which science has made about the effect of different kinds of music on the hair. Prof. Heur. le Parvillic, the eminent french physicist, is the man responsible for these discoveries. He declares that the well known action of music on the nervous system affects the nutrition of the bodily tissues and thus has an influence on the hair; to support this novel theory he has a great array of facts collected from observations of the heads of a large number of musicians. The influence of music upon the hair is not always the same. The growth of the hair is stimulated or checked or stopped entirely according to the kind of musical vibrations to which it is exposed. Playing the piano or the violin, according to Professor de Perville, is especially beneficial to the hair. This he says accounts for the luxuriant passes of hair which almost invariably cover the heads of male pianists and violinists. The music of the violoncello, the harp and the double bass is also stimulating to the hair, but to a less degree. Players of the flute and clarinet get only a small amount of hair stimulation and consequently their locks are quite likely to show a very perceptible thinning by the age of tity. The harm done to the hair by music, according to Professor de Perville's views is among the players of brass instruments. Those who make much use of the cornet and horn advance rapidly to baldness. Players of the tombone—particularly those who play it for long periods at a time—usually lose at least a stout per cent of their hair with five years after their use of the instrument begins. GIVES FACTS ON EELS Writer Says Eggs won't develop In Fresh Water The egg of an eel will not develop in fresh water. It took the naturalists a long time to make the discovery. Centuries passed, indeed, before any of the wise men knew that eels produced eggs. The fish were well known in the days of Aristotle, and prized a food, but that astute scholar taught that they were without sex and produced spontaneously from the earth's entrails. Pliny agreed with him as to their sex, but affirmed that they rubbed themselves against the rocks, thereby scraping particles of slime from their skins which developed into eels. It was not until 1877 that a naturalist, an Italian, by the way, identified a female eel. He taught that the young were born alive from their mothers.

Again Introducing Mr. Wills Tom Gibbins of Minneapolis was carefully pointed for a number of months for a match with either Carpentier or Dempsey. Week after week he traveled through the sticks knocking out second raters in two and three rounds and being built up to a second round. He played for a grandid young man, but when he met the young halstorm, Mr. Greb, he needed an iron umbrella, and an iron raincoat and also something to rope Mr. Greb with long enough to hit him in the chin. The fight was a credit to both men, but it left Mr. Dempsey sitting in a box at the ringside more lonesome than he has been for a long time. His manager thinks he will have to take him to Europe to get him a fight, if only to see how he thinks of the Carpentier's record of 17 against Joe Beckett. It is conceded that abroad our Neanderthal would not need the bell merely a stop watch. We do not believe Mr. Dempsey ought to go abroad without a fight to take his mind off his trouble. He does not care whom he fights. Neither, fortunately, does Wills, colored boxer. We introduce Mr. Wills. In this corner, gentlemen. They are not both members of the same club, but Wills never has a chance to think of himself. If he should happen to step out of the ring as champion he has all the nice habits a champion ought to have and is merely a shade darker than it is thought one should be. — Chicago Daily Tribune editorial. everthrowing at last the teaching of Aristotle.

At the expiration of a specified period the meter automatically cuts off a conversation, making P necessary to again push the button, and thus reset the timer, if further use of the line is desired -Popular Mechanics. Repair Shops Portab'e The enormous use of aeroplanes during the European war has resulted in an extensive use of special motor aeroplanet repair shops. These portable aeroplanet factories were first used by the French, and are marvels of ingenuity, for, in addition to carrying propellers and wings of aeroplanes, they are fitted with lathes, drilling machines, fences and in fact, most of the apparatus necessary to completely rebuild an aeroplane, except, of course, the engine. Fitted with powerful engines these aeroplane motors can get up a tremendous speed despite their weight, and are quickly on the scene of any aeroplane smash. In the roots of many of these motors, by the way, are windows or openings through which an observer can watch the flight of the aeroplanes. The man who thinks he is the whole thing doesn't waste and time trying to conceal it from others. Nearly every pretty girl is a piano chimp, and nearly every hemmy girl is a good cook. Color Blindness. It is declared that people suffering from color-blindness often have better, clearer vision than people with normal sight. While 4 per cent of our male population suffer from color-blindness, only one-half of one per cent of the female population is affected. This imperfection of the sight is very pronounced among Jews and Quakers. The origin of color-blindness is as completely unknown to scientists as is the reason for thus attacking only certain sections of people, but women may be free from it, probably because their eyes have been trained to color for generations, while Quakers are peculiarly susceptible, owing to the monotonous color of their garments. Color-blindness runs in a family for generations, and, although it is always in the males, it descends through the females. The daughters of color-blind men invariably have color-blind sons.—The Sunday at Home. A man seldom realizes the worth lessness of his earthly possessions until he tries to pawn them.
