ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1922. A Vain Effort—Our People Will Fight to the Bitter End Victory Now Assured—Curry's "Explanation" (Special to The Gazette.) Springfield, O.-In a long-winded letter to a local daily newspaper, last week, Rev. E. W. B. Curry, pastor of our Second Baptist church, tried hard, but in vain, to "straddle" the school question. Among other things, he said, "I have not and do not intend to take any part in this local school issue. It is a matter. I think, for the School Board and those interested to settle among themselves." Curry gets his bread and butter for himself and family from our people, particularly those who are members of the Second Baptist church, all of whom are "interested in this local school issue." And in the face of this fact, he has the nerve to say HE is not interested in it, in what so greatly interests and means so very much to the people who support him and his family. Well! Well! WELL!!! Lord have mercy! Curry should, go, and the members of the Second Baptist church, with our help, ought to see it that he goes, just as soon as possible. He is thru here. To retain him as pastor means loss of prestige as well as financial loss to the church. His kind, our people of this community, must get rid of or harbor unnecessary stumbling blocks within the race that will continue to threaten and impede their progress along lines of vital interest to the race. Make Curry and his kind leave Springfield, and Ohio if possible, should be our aim and slogan. The Police Get Busy. The "monkey-wrench that was thrown into the running gear" of the malcontents through the columns of "The Old Reliable" Gazette, last week; must have been a "hummer." There was "wailing and knashing of teeth." Nevertheless, we are still on the job and will be found on the fireing-line until victory has been achieved and our constitutional right as American citizens granted and assured. We have the enemy on the run. They are begging for mercy. If not, why are policemen going around begging the leaders to call off the pickets on Dibert Ave.? They called on Dr. Keller, Atty. Daniels and Pres. Johnson of the C. R. P. League, and said they were afraid "something would happen." Well, something is going to happen and that is the "jim crow" teachers and the "jim crow" school must go. If we are violating the law, its their duty to put us in jail; and if we are not violating the law, for God's sake do not ask us to give up our rights just to please a Negro-hating Sup't. of Schools and a few traitors of our race who are willing to enslave future generations for a few "tainted" dollars. Too much credit cannot be given our loyal women of the city for the most praiseworthy stand they have maintained. God bless them! Because, if the fight had have been left to the men only, I am afraid our "untuned harps" would now be "hanging on the weeping willows." Yet our men are doing fine and men of all pursuits are assisting in picketing the "jim crow" school. But we must take off our hats and put a higher estimate on our womanhood. The Copenhivers Greatly Concerned, Mr. Wm. Copenhaver, chairman of the Clark County Republican Campaign Committee, has shown that he does not have the love for "the colored voters" that Romeo had for Juliet. He demonstrated his feelings, last week, by saying to one of our leaders that he had lost all respect for all who were engaged in this fight against the "all colored school" on Dibert Ave. The trouble is, Mr. Copenhaver's son is a member of the school board and voted for the "jim crow" school and he is now trying to defend him by insulting our race. He said the white people were running this city, and it is no use for Negroes to buck against anything they do, and that we might as well take what they give us, go our way and be satisfied. Let it be remembered that the School Board is Republi- can and made so by the assistance of our votes. If that's what you call gratitude, please excuse me. It was said that we, as a race, have not the right to ask a white man his opinion, relative to our best inter- ests in the coming election; that they will do the thinking, and that Negroes must do the voting, as they tell us to. This rot is being handed out by shameless Republi- cans of Clark County. If our voters of this country will stand shoulder to shoulder in the coming election and let this be our motto—Experience in this "Jim crow" fight be our wise counselor—and exercise care in voting, we will be able to get even with the "Jim crow" members of the School Board at the ballot box on election day in November, next month. More Comment on the Curry "Explanation." Smarturing under the sting of public disapproval of their positions, the "jim crow" school propagandists are vainly seeking to escape the wrath of a betrayed people by various expedients. Some by donations of money and more or less sincere expressions of sympathy with the Civil Rights Protective League while privately expressing their preference for the separate school. It was left Nor Rev. E. W. B. Curry to use the columns of a local paper in an attempt to convince the people of his innocence, as an explainer he "rises and shines," especially when he makes up his own case and explanations. The Rev. (?) began by denying that he ever met the School Board or had even been requested to do so. Now, no one at all familiar with the history of this miserable business would accuse Rev. Curry or any one connected with it of any such open and above-board proceeding. Not since the incident, two years ago, when the petition of 300 names, secured by misrepresentation, was presented by the delegation headed by Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Speaks and Mrs. Lee has this "jim crow" crowd done anything openly. When confronted by an opposing delegation at that time, they could not conceal their discomfiture and surprise to find that their game had been discovered. Rev. Curry was not with the delegation at that time and at no other time since have they appeared before the School Board. It is well known, Rev. Curry did not appear there. However, the plot went forward and this same crowd was well informed as to what was to be done. In fact it was their glee, over what they had accomplished, that allowed the secret to become known in time to be opposed. There is no doubt but that Supit. McCord with his adrottment at scheming could have held up the announcement of his plan until time for school to open when it would have been too late to organize the opposition. But having been informed by his faithful tools that the plot had been discovered there was no longer any need of concealment and the program was announced along with the list of teachers submitted at the proper time. While Rev. Curry is emphatic in denying something of which he is not accused, he does not deny that he has been conducting a propaganda for separate schools from his pulpit ever since this movement has been on foot. In this same communication, in which he professes his faith in the ability of our men and women as teachers, he fails to tell the whole truth by adding, that he had used this as an argument for separate schools. Likewise, he fails to mention that the cause of Christ was prostituted to this same "jim crow" movement when he promoted a vacation bible school for our children at the Fulton School, summer before last. As an indication of the anterior purpose of this apparently worthy movement, a lady living nearly two miles from the Fulton school, had her children rejected at a white bible school, in the school building where they had attended day school about four blocks from their home, and directed to go to Fulton school. Strange to say, we heard nothing about a vacation bible school, last summer, after the farious plan for a "jim crow" school had been exposed, although the previous school had been declared "a great success." In spite of Curry's denial of taking any part in the school issue, there are men who are willing to declare under oath that he solicited them with a petition which he started for a separate school. "Bro." Curry, "tell it to the marines." Another Great Mass Meeting. As the campaign progresses there is an increased determination upon the part of our people that this obnoxious and insulting arrangement shall not be put upon our loyal and self respecting people of Springfield. How ever much others may pretend not to understand the position they take. It is well known among our people—the results, if not the motive, of the "jim crow" school propaganda. Nethwiths and ing the array of able speakers who have appeared during the campaign of education and inspiration, it is the intention of the Civil Rights Protective League not to relax its efforts in the least. Accordingly they were fortunate in escaping the Rev. H. C. Bailey of Cleveland, a former pastor of the Second Baptist church of this city, for their meeting, last Friday evening, at Wiley M. E. church. As usual the church was crowded to standing room only at an early hour by an audience eager to hear this eloquent champion of the right, especially as it applied, to his people. Beginning with the speaker's appearance at the church, the applause was repeated with increasing vigor until the completion of his splendid speech when it was prolonged as if the people were unwilling for him to quit. Rev. Bailey declared that "jim grow" schools in Springfield would be followed by "jim grow" schools in the whole North would be reduced to the condition of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, and that any Afro-American endorsing the idea of a separate school for our people should be banished. Referring to Roseoe Conkling Bruce, former head of the "Colored" public schools in the District of Columbia where there are the best separate schools in the U. S. and where the laws governing the schools are such that they should succeed there, if anywhere, quoted Bruce as saying in a speech at Cleveland, O. "From my experience, I advise our people here in the North never for heavens sake, to have separate schools for our children, because such schools will not have the same facilities as the other schools." Separate schools he said, favor the growth of prejudice and place the badge of inferiority upon the virtues of such an arrangement. Declaring that each race has something to contribute for the benefit of the other, Dr. Bailey said, only in mixed schools can these advantages be secured, as well as a better understanding and mutual respect. Commenting on the situation in Springfield, he declared that the principles for which we are contending are eternal and worth dying for. As to the employment of our teachers in the schools, he said the speaker schools "are the people of Springfield a better than those of Cleveland, Philadelphia, New York and Boston, all great rich, cultured and progressive cities that have our teachers in their mixed schools." "Jim Crow" Y. M. & Y. W. C. A. Declaring that the Y. M. C. A as a christian institution had broken down and the name citation in both the Y. M. & Y. W. C. A. was but a travesty upon the name of Christianity, the audience was told that our people of Cleveland, led by the editor of The Gnzette, would not have a "jim crow" Y. M. or Y. W. C. A branch This should be considered by our people of this city in their consideration of the institutions here which under the present arrangement have "jim crow" status. It should not be forgotten that it was the Rev. W. T. Smith of "Alabama," sec'y. of the Center St. Branch Y. M. C. A. who dis-guarded the request of the League for parents to keep their children from the Fulton School. In a bitter arrangement of preachers, business and professional men. Rev. Bailey declared they have no right to get their bread and butter and buy property from the sweat of our people and then stand by and see them "ground down to hell," without a protest. In commencing on the necessity of our men exercising their rights. Dr. Bailey paid a tribute to the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of "The Old Reliable" Gnzette, for the great work he has done for our race in Cleveland and Ohio, and for his courage and independence in being a candidate for the highest offices in the state. The collection of $134.30, taken at the conclusion of the address, showed that there is no slackening in the willingness of the people to sacrifice for their liberties.

The following were adopted September 22, 1895 by Henry A. Axline,校长 U. S. W. N. of this colony. Department of Ohio, United Spanish War Veterans, representing the Afro-American volunteers of Springfield and Clark county, was fought in the War with Spain, and the Philippine Insurrection to exploit the honor of our country and to bring freedom to oppressed peoples is devoted to the principle of freedom and equal opportunity for all loyal Americans, and sworn to "secure honor, and purity in public affairs." Therefore we are Resolved, to enter our vigorous protest against the continuance of this shameful attempt to humiliate and degrade Afro-American children by withholding the privilege of the public schools unless they submit to this illegal arrangement. Further be it Resolved, that we call upon our comrades of all wars to join with us in resisting, by all the means in our power, this attempt, by official lawlessness and abuse of power, to rob our children of the rights earned for them by our services and the blood of our comrades shed upon many bloody battle-fields.

Discussing the proposed settlement of the Near East situation by putting Constantinople under the control of the British, the London Express says, "The Mediterranean would, from the Atlantic to the Black Sea, become a British lake, commanded by the guns of Gibraltar on the west, and the fortifications of the straits on the east." That is a frank, but doubtless correct, statement of the British aspirations in the Mediterranean. But how about the sensibilities of France, Spain, Italy, Greece, and the other countries that border on that body of water? Also how about the authority of the league of nations that is supposed to take cognizance of situations likely to lead to a disturbance of the peace? --- TOM FLEMING AGAIN! Arrested on a warrant obtained by Councilman Thomas W. Fleming of the eleventh ward, Wayne J. Brown, 2061 E. 93d St., manager of Thompson's restaurant, 235 Euclid Ave., was charged yesterday with violation of the civil rights law. Councilman Fleming said Brown, a former him accommodations at the restaurant. Brown will be arraigned today.—Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer. Sept. 30. '22. "The Lord works in a mysterious way," etc. Fleming has sat in the City Council for about six years. Not a single thing of material benefit to our people of this city has he ever even attempted, as far as we have been able to see. Certainly he could have at least tried to get the Council to enact legislation against just such treatment as he was accorded in that restaurant. Havana, Cuba, has a "city law" that automatically cancels the license of any public place that is convicted of just such miserable action as he charges the Thompson restaurant management with being responsible for in his case. We repeat, Councilman Tom Fleming could have tried to do something material for his people while in the City Council, the past six years, but refused! Now he is insulted and humiliated (if this be possible) before the eyes of the entire community, the city of Cleveland, and he a member (the only one of color) of the City Council. We wonder if he will be allowed by his political boss (Maschke) to enter suit against that restaurant management for damages under our Ohio Civil Rights law? He has only had an employee arrested, according to the excerpt from the Plain Dealer, given above. This reminds us of what Lieut. Dwight R. Williams published in The Gazette, some weeks ago, when he was protesting to Tom against that color-line Luna park political meeting and was told (by Tom) that he (Dwight) was "too thin-skinned." Wonder who is "too thin-skinned" now? Lord, have mercy! ON THE HIGH SEAS Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Friend:—This is to let you know that the Bishop (E.

LOUS, Mo.-Emily Piper. age 28, (white) who gave her address as 2321 Chienheau Ave., was found lying on the floor in front of 2203 Olive St. Monday night, suffering from a deep knife wound in the right side of the neck and a laceration of the scalp. Police took her to City Hospital, in a serious condition. The woman refused to make a statement and was held on a charge of "suspected affray" pending further investigation. Tuesday, Audrey Wells, alias Brownskin., another white woman, arrested and charged with the theft. According to Brownskin's statement the Piper woman become unduly familiar with her (real brown skin) husband, Andrew Wells, who is lawfully married to the woman. They reside at 2203 Olive St. NEXT WEEK AT THE GLOBE THEATER. Those of our people in this community, who are failing to visit the Globe Theater, these days, are missing some of the finest treats ever provided for theater-goers in this city. The vaudeville acts and photo-plays are really first-class and will not only please but delight all who attend the theater. Manager Bob Davis has a clean and well-built body, both attentive and sees to it that the actunct all in the theater is such as to commend it to even the most exciting. Next week there will be five vaudeville acts and an intense heart-drama photo-play, "Spitfire", superly acted by an exceptionally fine cast of Afro-American artists. The mere mention of Edna Morton, G. Edward Brown, Lawrence Chenault and Mabel Young counts as the most skeptical love of first-class screen-plays as to the merits of "Spitfire". They were the leaders in the exceptional cast which produced "the photo-drama. For further information see advertisement on page 1. STATEMENT OF OWNERSHIP.

Thanksgiving day, November 30. Tex. Rickard, Madison Sanar Gar BATTLING SIKI 10 BATTLING SIKI den fight promoter, says he has received Siki's acceptance to meet any light heavyweight on that date who might be named by Rickard. Kid Norfolk, of New York, light heavyweight boxer, has deposited a forfeit of $2,500 binding a challenge to Battling Sikl, and will be entitled to first consideration as an opponent for the Senegalese in New York, according to announcements from the New York athletic commission. The challenge is for the world's light heavyweight championship, now held by Sikl. This decision of the N. Y. state athletic commission is only a silly effort to keep Siki from fighting a white "pug," but it won't work because Rickard will undoubtedly stage his contest in some other state if the commission does not recede from its foolish stand. Norfolk is not the champion light grey Greb (white) of Pittsburgh (of white) is. Therefore, the latter is Siki's logical opponent and Rickard will doubtless bring him forward and stage the bout in New Jersey. Siki's stinging defeat of George Carpenter seems to have left the usual bad taste in the mouths of some people. This, too, is silly, even in America. Skii "Crossed" Carpenter Lie! PARIS, Oct. 3—By inuendoes and thinly veiled accusations, all American lies, it is now being broadly intimated that Battleg Skii and Georges Carpentier had "an understanding" in their recent bout for the light weight championship and that the Senegalese doublecrossed Georges by hitting him a terrific blow in the third round.

In some parts of India, I discovered, clothes—or the lack of them—cause little concern; children up to six or eight years old wear absolutely nothing. All the barbering is done in the open street. For the most part, houses are simply built of clay, with brush thrown over the top. The better classes of natives pile into tenement houses as people do in the congested districts of New York City, and their ambition seems to be to crowd as many persons into a room as possible, and to have as many children as nature will permit—World Traveler. Love of Nature "What is your favorite flower?" "Well," replied Farmer Corntossel, "I guess an orchid is about as satisfactory as any." "Orchids are beautiful, but rare." "That's why I favor 'em. There's no chance of they're gettin' a start like daisies or dandelions an' havin' to be weeded out." -Washington Star. The Patriotic Spirit Animated by this spirit the partisan is enlarged into patriot. Before it the lines of party sink into hazy obscurity; and the horizon which bounds our view reaches on every side to the uttermost verge of the great Republic. It is a spirit that exalts humanity, and imbued with it the souls of men soar into the pure air of unselfish devotion to the public welfare. It lighted with a smile the cheek of Curtius as he rode into the gulf; it guided the hand of Aristides as he sadly wrote upon the shell the sentence of his own banishment; it dwelt in the frozen earthworks of Valley Forge; and from time to time it has been an inmate of the halls of legislation—Thomas I. Bayard. Darby and Joan. "Darby and Joan" was first applied to a very happily married couple who lived in the Eighteenth century and bore those names. They were John Darby, printer, of Bartholomew's Close, London, England, and his wife, Joan. The constancy and devotion to one another of this old-fashioned, simple, and virtuous couple so impressed Henry Woodfall, who had served his apprenticeship with the printer, that he wrote a poem, "Darby and Joan," in commemoration. This poem was printed in the London Gentleman's Magazine, and received a good deal of notice. The expression then passed into the English language as symbolizing the eventide of happy wedlock. F.M.

Philadelphia, Boston, and other northern cities, outside of Ohio, are also having trouble as a result of efforts to inaugurate the "jim crow" school system. Our people everywhere must be watchful and aggressively active if they would stamp out this latest attempt of prejudiced whites of the North to segregate our school children. In nearly every instance southernners, black and white, are the prime-movers. President Marcus Garvey (of Jamaica, British West Indies) says Prof. Wm. Pickens, a secretary of the N. A. N. A. C. P., begged him for a job in the U. N. I. A. The latter says he did nothing of the kind and adds that the publication of their correspondence, relative to the matter of the job, will tell "Who is the Liar." Possibly, Garvey has published some of Pickens' letters and the latter is publishing some or Garvey's. And still there is some doubt as to "who is the liar." We patiently await additional publications before reaching a conclusion. One hundred and five men charged with "crap shooting" on Woodland Ave. and Central Ave. sidewalks were discharged in police court. Monday, after being given a lecture and warned that second offenses would be more harshly dealt with. Police records, Saturday, showed the largest number of arrests in the week-end clean-up recorded this year. A total of 183 persons were picked up on charges of gambling, disorderly conduct, dope-selling and liquor law violation. Most of the arrests were made on Central, Scovill and Woodland Aves, in wards 11 and 12. And there were those, last fall, who affected to become indignant as a result of the statements the editor, The Gazette made during the campaign as to the height conditions exasimating ward 11 when they were completely worse than they are now. Not only gambling but immoral conditions that threatened the very life of that part of the community, causing the ruining of many young girls particularly, and boys, breaking up families, etc. etc. They are bad, very bad yet. We are hoping that Mayor Kohler will do as he promised—clean thorny wards 11 and 12. still among the very worst in the city. For the benefit of our confreres of the Norfolk (Va.) Journal & Guide and the N. Y. Age, we wish to say that the forty Negroes who were employed by two white gubernatorial candidates, during the recent state primary campaign in Ohio, to travel thru the state in the interest of their candidates and against that of our own candidate were not "poor as Job's turkey." They were undoubtedly both "mercenary and disloyal" but no one of them was "poor as Job's turkey" nor were the kind that need money as badly as that would indicate. Furthermore, "as a whole and as a group we are (NOT) just like the other races and groups." Members of no other race or group could have been "purchased" in such numbers to make any such miserable canvass and showing in a contest of that kind, and our confreres know it. No other race or group would have permitted it, either, and Ohio Afro-Americans will not, again. That was made clear before the recent primary campaign closed. To apparently condone such "mercenary and disloyal" action, even if political, with what seems to be a plea in extenuation is unfortunate and a mistake which neither of our esteemed contemporaries should be guilty of making. It is far from being a "philosophical view to take of the situation, politically or otherwise." J.

Saw 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 Tlst 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, eat- ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance 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 ac- commodations, advantages. facilitie: or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. See. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also 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- isdiction in the aay where such of- fense was committed. This law has spaniel been held constitutional and ood, 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. Misled by the foolishly manufae- ‘tured outery for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Ak- ron Beacon Journal published an edi- torial to which the editor of The Ga- zette 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 sacs of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, 0., April 26, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. | 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. 9, 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. If the Beacon- Journal kad known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OfIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very truly yours, C.R. Grant.
