At the right is shown the entire group of pickets a sentled near the school. (Special to The Guzette.) Springfield, O. — One thousand people crowded Wiley M. E. church last week Friday evening, and overflowed into the street in an effort to hear the Hon. Harry C. Smith editor of The Cleveland Gazette and a candidate at the recent primaries for the Republican nomination for Governor of Ohio. Mr Smith was brought here by the Civil Rights Protective League as a part of its campaign against the attempt of the superintendent of the local public schools, and his subservient male members of the Board of Education, to jam down the throats of the protesting Afro-American citizens, of Springfield the infamous, illegal and un-American "jim crow" school-system. As an indication of the intensity of the feeling of the people over this "jim crow" effort to pollute this well-spring of our democracy, the public school system, the church was filled by 7:30 p.m. by a crowd that remained until 10:30 p.m., notwithstanding the evening was very warm! Hot. Hearty applause greeted the preliminary talks of Chas. L. Johnson, president of the League, and Atty. Geo. W. Daniels, as they explained the objects of the League and the progress being made in its light for justice and right. As stated by Mr. Johnson the League not only proposes to prevent the establishment of an "all-colored" or "jim crow" school, but it will demand that the Afro-American teachers employed shall not be segregated in one school-building but be de-stributed among the different buildings in the city. Atty. Daniels' denunciation of two local Afro-Americans in particular, and others, who have given their assistance to this nefarious scheme, brought out the first hint of the enthusiasm that later on during Mr. Smith's address grew into a whirlwind. Particularly generous was the applause and laughter that greeted Atty. Daniels' sallies at the two "reverend" gentlemen who have spread "jim crow" school propaganda. When it was decided to have an out-of-town speaker, the Hon. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, suggested by Mr. David Wilborn, was immediately and unanimously decided upon as being the only man in Ohio qualified by long service and ripe experience to fearlessly, frankly and fully discuss and advise in matters affecting the civil rights of our people, and who could be depended upon to do so. It is needless to say that those who have known Mr. Smith for years and his fearless and aggressive attitude in all matters affecting his people wer not disappointed. It matters not whether it was a passionate appeal for the people to stand, together and sacrifice their time and money for the protection of their rights, or whether it was a bitter exorcitation and denunciation of the black traitor who would sell the birthright of children for a few paltry dollars to the people an- covered edilier Smith, with thunderous applause, the womn wavin' their handkerchiefs and men throwing their hats in the air. No soul enthusiasm and demonstration have ever been missed in this city. Mr. Smith was introduced by Artur J. Riggs, a tour-trip friend. The speaker of the evening was emphatic in denouncing the "fall-colored school plan." "We have been held back in our progress because we have not learned the lesson of personal and financial sacrifice to our people." Mr. Smith said. "Until we hope that lesson we will continue to go back. Be willing to give your time and money. Don't get discouraged. Stand together when the principle is right, until the heaven fall don't tire out." Talking directly about the school problem here Mr. Smith said: "It is vastly more important that your boys and girls be educated with the white children than it is to have a million colored teachers in the schools." This brought a whirlwind of applause. Pointed remarks were directed as just citizens of color who have apparently approved the Fulton school shame. "For every mother's son of col- who gets in your way," Mr. Smith said, "have this slogan, 'out of office' or out of town." The law in Ohio is with you in this fight. In each and every case where there is a jim crow' school in this town it has been established with the consent of our people. In towns with jim crow' schools the prejudice is the time stronger. Your light is for your children." As Editor Smith proceeded with his speech of one hour and a half the enthusiasm of the large audience grew and the demonstration multiplied until, as we have already said, no such right was ever before witnessed in Springfield. It was indeed a wonderful meeting. As its conclusion every one who could get to him, grasped Mr. Smith hand and thanked him for coming so far and so promptly to their assistance and support. It will not soon be forgotten. Then followed the call for financial assistance for the League and the fight, and $247.60 was quickly contributed to add to the funds already in hand. On his arrival in the city, late last Friday afternoon, Mr. Smith was met at the depot by a committee which included Messrs. Chas, L. Johnson, president of the League; Chas, W. Greene, Wm. Henry Young, David Wilborn, old friend of the editor, and Atty. Daniels. He dined at Mr. Wilborn's residence, stopped over night at the Montgomery hotel, and breakfasted with Mr. Young, Mr. Johnson's fine Hudson car was much in evidence. He is the manager of the Champion Chemical Co. which employs about 125 Afro-Americans and 50 whites and nearly one million dollars worth of business each year. Few man of the race in this country hold such a responsible position. Mr. Johnson is an aggressively loyal member of the race. This can be said, also, of all the actors of the League. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS A part of our campaign of opposition has been a boycott of the school by keeping our children out of normal conditions are restored—the 172 white pupils, transferred to other schools, are returned to Fulton school. This boycott is being conducted by a corps of about 75 enthusiastic and earnest workers who have been on the job every time the school has been opened and who patrol the streets and alley surrounding the school with banners containing slogans and remarks concerning the "jim crow" school and asking parents not to send their children if they do not want such a school. So effective has this been that from a normal enrollment of about 400 pupils the attendance has dropped to 40 with a good prospect of closing the school. On account of the arrogant and unsympathetic attitude of the principal and teachers most of whom were imported from the South, some of the banners have remarks directed at the teachers and the position they occupy iniding in the school.

At the present time nearly 4400 have been collected. More concerning our fight will appear in the next issue of The Gazette, copies of which can be secured by notifying Arthur J. Riggs, David Wilborn. Chas. W. Green or Chas. L. Johnson. PROTESTS "ALL-COLORED" SCHOOL. Editor, Springfield (O) Sun: Mr. McCord's bluff has been called. He is quoted as saying that the truant officer has been instructed to file no charges against parents at present for keeping their children out of school. What a change from his first threat and scare that the truant officer had been instructed to do his duty! What are the duties of the truant officer? Many citizens and taxpayers are anxiously waiting to find out. Sup't McCord knows as well as every other way taking pains, though he be a fool, that there is no law to compel attendance at this illegal, segregated "jim crow" institution which he calls the Fulton school. In keeping with his usual "rule or ruin" policy, Mr. McCord now rises to threaten to do another impossible, as well as illegal act, namely, to leave the colored children who have thus been insulted, familiarized and "jim-crowd" without schools at all inhils they grin and bear this outrage, yield, surrogate and turn the other check His hirlings' and benchmen whose brave is furnished by colored people, and battered by them, too, are now busy spreading this propaganda among the "jim crowed" in the hope that they may all bow and surrender to the dictates of Stuart McCord. THE CIVIL RIGHTS Protective League proposes not only to keep an arm-picking, but to inaugurate other methods of proving to Mr. McCord that there are those here who will not sell their birthright for a guess of potage or 30 pieces of silver and who will fight this attempt to re-ensalve us as long as there are letters enough left in the alphabet to spell the word FIGHT. There are scores in the league who know what "jim crow" schools mean. Mr. McCord does, not know, for he has never been forced to attend one. This "watchful wailing" must end eventually; why not now? Or is Mr. McCord thinking up other empty threats to 'make, only to back down, when the time comes for doing things? Now, if Supr McCord really has the interest of the youth at heart, he will see to it that they attend school; but, on the other hand, if it is his purpose to humiliate and cower the parents, into submission, then he will continue to threaten to do what he knows in advance that he has neither authority nor courage to do. The Civil Rights Protective League believes in "a school system for all of the children of all the people" and not in a "jim crow system" for the children of colored people. The Civil Rights Protective League will meet as usual, every Friday night, at Mt. Zlon Baptist church. Yellow Springs and State streets. (Signed) CHAS. L. JOHNSON, Chairman GEO. W. DANIELS. MRS. A.

SEPTEMBER, 16, 1922 COX STILL FOR ENTANGLEMENTS Ex-Gov. Jas. M. Cox says that American participation in affairs of Europe is essential to the best interests of both Europe and America. It doubtless would be in the best interests of Europe, but there never has been a time since the war when it would be greater folly for America to be entangled with Europe than the present. Mr. Cox himself says that Austria can not last much longer, and that both France and Germany are in desperate straits. Apparently a European disaster is imminent, and Americans may thank the good judgment of Republican legislators that the United States is not so tied up as to be dragged down with it. --- REAPING THE WHIRLWIND. Those Democrats who would criticize the course of the administration in the strike emergency should pause and ponder the policies of Mr. Wilson in a somewhat similar situation. The threatened rail strike was avoided—by agreeing to every one of the employees' demands, and asking Congress to enact legislation written by them in their own interest. Principle was discarded and everything gave way to expediency. The Republicans are now reaping the harvest of trouble that the Democrats sowed. Both the coal and the rail strikes were brought on because operators of the mines and the roads refused to continue in effect agreements that had been made by the Wilson administration as temporary expedients. FIGHT FOR RIGHTS! Negroes from the South and a Negro "grafter" or two who want to teach or make a little "tainted" money are trying to help prejudiced white people of Springfield to "put over" a "jim crow" public school. That this would be contrary to Ohio law does not seem to estop them any more than it did the same miserable black and white element in Columbus and other southern Ohio cities and towns. There are some Negroes, like the Color-Line Luna Park Negroes in Cleveland, who seem to prefer to be "jim crowed," insulted, discriminated against, etc., etc., because as some of them say "we are used to it down home" (in the South). Well, those of our people in Ohio who do not approve of any such backward movements, including the Luna Park discrimination here in Cleveland have the law in their favor (and we helped to make it) and can stop it all if they wish to do so. Springfield Afro-Americans are determined to do it and success will surely crown their efforts. The League of Nations, "League of Notions." "Plague of Nations," or whatever you may prefer to term the organization, has begun to disintegrate or crumble. Peru and Bolivia have withdrawn from it in a fit of pique as did Argentina early in its career and now Nicaragua threatens to do likewise. This is not very encouraging to Ex-Gov. James M. Cox and Associate U. S. Justice John H. Clarke, leading Democrats, who would tole this country into the spineless League. England's premier, Lloyd George, has dominated the organization ever since its inception and would be greatly pleased to see the United States a member so he could "lord it" over this country, too. The Republican policy of remaining out of the League to which the Harding administration has clung to date as instructed by the people of this country on election day, two years ago in November, is the wisest and best and should be retained. We cannot help feeling that Cox and Clarke's activity in behalf of the League and their strenuous efforts to make the people of this country change their minds and insist upon this country's entering the "Plague of Nations" is being prompted by the English and their American "allies." New York bankers and others. --- MAYOR FRED KOHLER Tuesday's morning Plain Dealer quotes Mayor Fred Kohler as saying, Monday morning, in his address of welcome at the opening session of the B. M. C. in Haltnorth's theater, E. 55th St. and Woodland Ave.: "No mayor of Cleveland has been more fair to your race than I. When I was chief of police I appointed Charles S. Smith, my secretary. I was the first chief of police, so far as I know, to do this. And when I became mayor that man became the secretary of Safety Director T. C. Martinec." Mayor Kohler is in error when he says he was the first chief to appoint Charles S. Smith his secretary. Chief Corner was the first to do this. Mayor Robert E. McKisson appointed Charlie a patrolman (so he could Robert E. McKisson become secretary) at the request of the editor of The Gazette and in the fulfillment of a promise he had made the writer fully a year before. This was about twenty-five years ago. What the mayor (Kohler) is entitled to credit for is the re-appointment as secretary of Mr. Smith and for the latter's advancement to the three positions he now holds—secretary to the chief and secretary of the Police and Fire Departments of the city and Director Martinec's sectary. Whether at any advance in salary, we are unable to say at this time. But we think not. Chief Frank W. Smith, who preceded Chief Graul under Director Martinec, did get Charlie an increase, practically the first he had received since he was appointed a member of the local police force and immediately became secretary, more than twenty-five years ago. Just what Mayor Kohler had reference to when he said no mayor of Cleveland has been fairer to our people than he, is a question because there are several of them in the last decade or so who Charles S. Smith Charles S. Smith have, appointed more Afro-Americans to good positions than he has and in other ways have surpassed him in being "fair." But none of them ever did so outstanding and welcome an act as he did when soon after taking office in January he "chased to the showers" that Maschke-"Starlight" Boyd-Tom Fleming crowd of city job-holders who were so active in the campaign in ward 11, last fall, in thwarting the will of the good people there when they were struggling with might and main to throw off the galling yoke they had for nearly six years been staggering under (thruout Mayors Davis' and FitzGerald's administrations). That, Mr. Mayor, according to the best judgment of the great mass of decent Afro-Americans of this city, was your master-stroke as far as they are concerned. When you have given them at least a few good appointments (not jobs) along with the good work you regard as being "fair" all will be in a position to better appreciate you and whatever you have done for them. --- The Gazette is indebted to the enterprising Springfield (O.) Daily Sun for hte large portrait on page 1 of this paper. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SEPTEMBER 16, 1922 A GOOD WHITE FRIEND (Continued From Page 1) It would have been a calamity for you and yours (especially in Ohio) to have won the primary nomination in the first instance. As you said, "our people must first learn how to stand together, then walk and work in co-operation as a race unit, and then we may successfully run as candidates for any office in the gift of the state." I admire your spirit, your intelligence, your courage, and particularly your exposition of American manhood: Remember, Moses (who was chosen of God for that work) had nine notable and complete failures before accomplishing the task of freeing Israel from Egyptian bondage, and Christ died before His work of spiritual redemption and moral renovation was recognized and approved. You have taken the first and second step. You have done well. Now for the well known overburden. If first you don't succeed, try, try again. Don't be discouraged. I am still praying for you. Trust in God, keep clean and sweet and strong, and all will yet be well. Fairly yours, (Rey.) Geo. Wilson Brent. OUR ACTORS ABROAD Are Popular and Winners — Our Stage Folk in This Country. New York City—An earnest statistician calculates that there are 14,000 Afro-American actors and musicians performing in this city. Vaudeville has about 600 gets and there are twenty-two minstrel shows touring the south. We have 22 picture companies producing films for our fans. The Colored actor in Europe has a wonderful standing. Jazz bands are the last word in the fashionable cafes of London, Paris and Berlin and his dancing and singing acts are popular in all of the European capitals. The Negro abroad is not affected by the silly American prejudice or racial feeling, Charles Gilpin's little incident with the New York Drama League could not have happened in a European city where the white playgoer scrambles to shake the hand of a popular Colored performer and where the Colored actor has an equal chance with his light-skinned rival for the favors and perquisites of the matinee idol. The B. M. C. Welcome by the Mayor—Large Attendance—A Great Meeting— Wonderful Showing. The B. M. C. opening session at Haltnorth's hall. Monday morning, proved a most auspicious event. The mayor's address of welcome to the 1700 delegates was responded to by Col. J. E. Reed, chairman of the local committee on arrangements, who introduced him: by Chas. E. Armstrong of Wyoming, D. G. M. of Ohio, and by Dr. J. P. Haynes of Toledo, temporary chairman of the B. M. C. Mrs. Florence D. Cochrane, M. N. G. of H. R., welcomed the women delegates and Mrs. Mary E. Parker of Washington, D. C., W. G. S., responded. Other speakers were: Hon. Edward H. Morris of Chicago, G. M.; Jas F. Needham of Virginia, G. S., and Major W. T. Anderson. Our G. U. O. of F. H has more than 700,000 members in its 14,560 lodges and holds property worth $5,223,920. Nearly a million dollars was paid, last year, in sick and death benefits to widows and orphans. The woman's auxiliary has 11,283 households, four of which are here in Cleveland, with a total membership of more than 580,000. After the joint session, Monday was given over to committee and interment among the blemish will elect committee, the grand master's council and numerous grand master's drill teams arrived, Monday afternoon, and all day Tuesday. The reception for delegates was held at E. Technical High school from 6 to 8 p. m., Monday, after which a concert was given at the St. John's A. M. E. church. The final joint conference was held at Haltnorth theater. Tuesday morning, Daily business sessions were held there. The auxiliary met at Triple Stone Baptist church in Birmingham will elect committee (this week) Friday. A joint entertainment and dance and moonlight boat-ride, Tuesday night. The military ball, Wednesday night, at Public hall was a magnificent affair. An automobile parade. Thursday morning, and competitive drills for prizes in the afternoon. At night a dance closed the B. M. C. week. A wonderful gathering from all parts of the country. On the program. Friday, was an automobile tour to points of interest in and near the city ride at night. The local committee of arrangements worked hard and planned well, with the result that the great gathering was well cared for and entertained. It is entitled to unstinted praise.

The Tate Stars handed the Templar Motors (white) a 12 to 1 lacing, Sunday, making it two in a row and giving the Tates the series. Branahan hurled for the winners, held the Templars hitless for the first four innings, got two hits and two runs. The Tates was the fact that Johnson and Johnston, of the Tates, each got a triple, Miller hurled for the Templars and R Pitcher Branaham was nicked for sixteen hits. Eight errors by his teammates helped in his downfall. The game might have resulted in a shutout for the Tates and Bonner relayed the ball to Murry in the ninth instead of holding it after he had retired Kluusas. Bonner got two doubles and Williams, Tavlor, Murray and Branahan one each. As indicated the Tates won Saturday's game from the Templars. Score, 5 to 4. BOSTON, Mass.—Kid Norfolk defeated Lee Anderson in ten fast rounds, retaining our light heavyweight championship. FACTS People who Advertise Can self Goods. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. 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 richea 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, persistent 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." "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's ob- durate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That his asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. Patronize Gazette Advertisers --- HOW TO START A MOTORBOAT EXPERT TELLS HOW TO ENJOY CLIDING OVER WATER IN POWERFUL CRAFT Says Helping Hand is Always Handed to Distressed Boaters. When starting the motor close any auxiliary air valves and hold the hand over the air inlet of the carburetor so to draw in a richer mixture, otherwise the mixture may be too weak to start the motor. If the mixture seems to be rich enough, the engine may start off if a little lubricating oil is let into the cylinder which will make the compression better. Irregular firing usually comes from carburator and spark troubles. Drill the carbinator and if this does not seem to remedy the trouble investigate the electrical apparatus. Clean the spark plug and see that the gap is right; the thickness of the tumb nail is a good gauge. Too large a spark is apt to be wired and quickly exhausts the battery. The vibrators of the coils should not be set too loose in the hopes of saving current, but should be set to produce a sharp clear spark. They do not need to be too tight. When a two cycle motor four-cycle coat is, fires on every other revolution, the gas is too rich and should be cut down at the needle valve until an even cycle takes hold. Weak explosions and backfires through the carbators indicate that the mixture is too weak and should be increased. If an engine runs steadily but seems weak the trouble may be in loss of compresion, poor lubrication, poor design or parts out of alignment, carbon or coagged outlets and gas passages. Sudden stopping is usually due to a broken electrical connection; white clowing up and stopping is caused by lack of gasoline or clogged feed line; engine too hot or poor lubrication. Overbathing of the engine is usually caused by a lack of lubrication or poor circulation of cooling water. The pump should be examined and if working badly should be repacked and oiled. Boating is about the only sport or business in which there is so much courtesy. A helping hand is always given and you always seem to be expected to salute any passing boat. When steering in a fog without a compass it is nearly impossible to maintain a straight course. Take a long line with a flotied tide to one end and let it drag over the stern. The line will drag directly behind you when you are steering a straight course and will swing sideways when the boat swings away. PLENTY OF RIGHT FOOD NEEDED Do not be afraid of feeding laying, 'tens too much of the right kind of food. Take notice that "laying hens" is in distinction from those that are not laying. A hen that is laying needs more food than an unproductive one, and may possibly get too fat to eat. But after the hen once gets started to laying she must have feed enough to meet the demands for her body and a surplus for egg production. A great many people feed just about enough to keep the hen alive, with nothing over toward the making of the egg. It does not pay to do this, for the little extra food will be just what is required to make the egg and the egg is what you are after. Please also note "the right kind of food," and you couldn't feed too much to the laying hen. You can corn or other kind of grain to laying hen. She needs a variety of food grains that are smaller than corn, so that she can scratch for them and get needed exercise. She can fill her crop with corn in a few minutes, and then stand around all day accu- mulati, fat. Feed a laying the right kind of food and she cannot eat more than is good for her. KHAKI NO LATE DAY PRODUCT Was Known in India as Far Back as the COs. The majority of people, if they think about the matter at all, imagine that "khaki" is a product of recent years. This is not so. "Khakl" was used in India as far back as the late '60s or early '70s for soldiers' uniforms in the hot weather, the material used being a kind of cotton drill. A similar material has been in use in Arabia and by the Firewheel shippers of Persia from time immemorial, and is in use today in Persia for making their outer robes, the material being made from a natural self-drab colored cotton which is still cultivated in small quantities in some parts of Persia—notably Kashan and Yazd; the stuff, of course, being entirely home made—I, e.g., grown, spun, woven and made into garments, which by the way, are very durable. To keep telephones clean, a San Francisco inventor has patented a machine that automatically covers the transmitter with paper after it, it has been used, which papyrus must be removed before the instrument is used again. A recently invented telephone receiver is so small that it can be inserted into the car instead of being戴ed against it.

For six or more years Councilman Thomas Fleming has sat in the Cloveland city council, the only Afro-American representative-in that body and about jas useless a political appendage as the residents of the eleventh ward or any other ward of the elty could possibly have. Quite a year has passed since Central Ave, was torn up for the purpose of installing new sewer, a new pavement and aew street car tracks, so the city authori- ties said at the time, and they were Maschke Republican organization men, too. Plenty of time has elapsed for the ground in Central Ave, to settle (since the sewer was built in that street): so the improvements mentioned could be started at any time now. And Tom Fleming does not seem to know this. By the same token, for more than six years he has not seemed to know that Cleve- land needs a city ordinance that would automatically revoke the - conse of any publie place convieted Jot unjustly diseriminating against any citizen on the score of race or color, etc., ete.; that it should have another which would practically put the Klu Klux Klan out of business and that there should be still anoth- ler ordinance, prohibiting the exhibi- tion of racially insulting photo-plays, sub-titles, ete, All these things and more, Councilman Fleming should have at least ATTEMPTED during his tenure of office, He has not even (ried to do any of these things, all of which and more Alderman Counell- man) Bob Jackson of Chicago did in a few months, last fall and this spring.

IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON- TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of sub- mitting to discrimination on the claim that their race “al- ways will be diseriminated against.” The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal diserimina- tion, and are winning even so- cial’rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than sub- mit. 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 na- ture without self-respect and have no ‘guts.’” ‘The world re- spects only those who resent and resist proseriptions for race. _ Let us be worthy of the abo- Vtionists, worthy cf our own fathers who have d'ed in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimization may continue.

Lucas county, including Toledo, where there are more than 5,000 male Afro-American voters, gave Hon, Harry Clay Smith, our candidate for the Republican yomt- nation for Governor, 382 votes on Aug. 8, ‘22; Summit county, in which 4s the clty of Akron, and which has about 4,000 male Afro-American voters, gave him 654; Hamilton county (Cincinnatt), where there are at least 22,000 male Afro-American voters, 724; Clark county (Spring- field) ‘where there are 7,000 male Afro-American voters, 900; Cuya- hoga county (Cleveland) where there ‘are at least 10,000 male Afro-Amer- fean voters, but 1681, a little more than half as many votes as he ro- celved in the 11th ward of this city ‘on election day, last fall, and there are 32 wards in Cleveland; Mahon- ing county (Youngstown), where our male vote numbers about 5,000, gave him 1,258. Mahoning and Clark counties with their small male Afro- American. vote, as compared with either Hamilton or Cuyahoga coun- ty’s vote, gave our candidate MORE VOTES PROPORTIONATELY THAN RITHER of the two last-named counties in which are the largest cities of the state. In Clark county our candidate received nearly 300 more votes than were given (in that county) to Secretary of State Harvey C.

Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper oF manager of an inn, restaurant, eat- ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance by Iand or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to n citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the ac- commodations, advantages. facilitie or privileges thereof, shall be fined nat Jess than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not ess than, thirty days nor more than ninety days. oF bo Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall aleo pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent jur- iediction in the county ‘where rach of- fense was commit This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and. good. law by the ‘Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is ‘our people will not use itas 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. Misled by the foolishly manufae- tured outcry for the passage of the Beaty Dil, a few years ago, the Ak- ron Beacon Journal published an edi- torial to which the editor of The Ga- Jette replied, calling its attention to ithe fact that the Ohio Civil Rights ‘Yaw 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, ., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette Cleveland, 0. My Dear Sir: Observing your let~ ter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, 4 venture to send you, under a sep. arate 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, de- cided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for '($500) five hundred dollars was sustained.
