ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1922 The Ohio Supreme Court "Set The Pace" Many Years Ago Which All the Courts of "The Buckeye State" Must Follow—Our Greatest Victory Since the War of the Rebellion! "Counsel for the defendant have raised some other questions which can be quickly disposed of," said the court. "One is that segregated schools are not illegal of \themselves. This is true. When a district is populated solely by one race, the school is necessarily a. school for children of that race. But this is a natural result not brought about by manipulation. Another contention is that no compulsion is used with respect to colored children in the Fulton district. That the permission extended to some does not amount to compulsion as to others to whom such permission is denied. That is pure sophistry." The decision then went on with the statement that "when children are required to attend school and all schools but one are closed to certain of them, it is idle to say that there is no compulsory discrimination with respect to such children. "The situation is not saved by the fact that white children may attend the Fulton school. The fact is that none do, and none are reasonably expected to do so. Much is made of the fact that three white children of one family attended there one day. It is claimed that they would attend now if not prevented by threats. But there is noth- ing but heresay evidence to support this claim. Neither the children nor their parents were called to give their testimony. Even if true, one sporadic incident of this character would not alter the substantial facts of the situation. It is only by severe straining and twisting of both the law and the evidence that the claim of the board through its superintendent and others could be held legal. However unpopular this decision may be to many, this court cannot do other than render judgment with the law and the evidence as it sees them." After reviewing the facts in the case relating to enrollment of colored and white pupils, the employment of Negro teachers, the decision called attention to the fact that while no formal action was taken to make it a "film-crow" school, two of the five members of the board of education "frankly admitted that it was to be in fact an all-colored school." "It was recognized that a separate school could not be established lawfully by resolution of the board, but the same thing was to be accomplished by creating a state of conditions and a general situation which would necessarily result in an all-colored school. In bringing about this condition, the board was actuated by a sincere motive in behalf of the schools and the public, and especially in affording an opportunity to colored persons to become teachers in the public schools." At a later point the decision says: "The design of the board was to adhere closely to the letter of the law while violating the spirit. What could not be done directly was to be accomplished by indirect methods. A striking illustration of the design is furnished by Central Junior High school. Both white and colored children from Fulton school enrolled in this school, but all the colored were sent away and all the white retained. It was contended that this was due to the crowded condition of the schools and that many white children were sent away. The evidence shows that all children without regard to color, attending Central Junior High school from other districts, were returned to the district in which they resided with the single exception of white children residents of Fulton district." Ways and means of opening the Fulton school, so as to conform to the decision of Judge Krapp, worried the members of the board at a special meeting, last Saturday. H. C. Copenhaver and R. S. Hutchings seemed in a trance. -Mrs. Helen B. Garver said she thought the board should formulate a plan for opening the school and submit it to the court for approval. She suggested that the board employ white teachers for the school, and said she thought with this arrangement all pupils would return to school. She added the Negro teachers now employed would, have to be paid, but would not need to teach. Copenhaver finally, "came to" and proposed opening the school the same as it was before being closed a month ago, keeping the Negro teachers for the remainder of the year and sending all children in the district to attend it. Supt. McCord told the board he would open the school with the teachers already there if the court would permit him to do so. He said he did not believe he could get white teachers for the school, which is "bunk", pure and simple. Both Copenhaver and Hutchings also said they had received telephone calls, Saturday, from a man refusing to give his name (maybe it was Curry) who said a large number of children in the district would attend the school if it were opened again with the Negro teachers, and the pickets removed so they could not "intimidate" the children and their parents. This is amusing! The board members said they thought the court's order to close the school still stood. Of course it does. No legal representative of the city was present at the meeting to confer with the board on the problem. It was not necessary. She! Arthur J. Riggs. Flipper Will Follow His "Chief" Washington, D.

Flipper, who holds a clerical position in the Department of the Interior given by Mr. Fall, made the following statement: "As my appointment was personal and not political, and as I am on the personal staff of the secretary, I naturally expect to go out when he goes. It is not possible; however, to give a more definite answer at this time." Asked as to his plans for the future, Mr. Flipper said he hopes to get a bill through Congress reinstating him as a lieutenant in the army, -- Baltimore, (Md.) Afro-American. Detroit, Mich.—Charles.

Hunley, ago 53. 1442 E. 85th St., died Feb. 3, at the State Hospital, of cerebral hemorrhage, where he had been about nine weeks for treatment. "Prince," as he was familiarly known by hundreds of friends and admirers of both races, came to Cleveland, many years ago, from Columbus, where he was employed as head-waiter of the Chittenden hotel. His fine service, as head-waiter of the Arcade hotel in his own home time, Springfield, secured him the Columbus position. For ten years he was head-waiter of the Hollenden Hotel, being advanced to superintendent of service, which position he held until three years ago when illness over-took him. From that time, until the day of his death, he fought hard to regain his health. While at the Hollenden he picked up Billy Whitla, the abducted boy of that famous case, receiving for this one-half of the $5,000 reward. A favorite guest of the hotel left him $3,000. The will of his employer, W. H. Holden, provided a pension for his 27 years' service at the Hollenden. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at Mt. Zlon Cong, church, the pastor officiating. The remains were taken to Springfield for service and interment on Wednesday afternoon. The deceased was a membre of the Elks, Masons, K. of P. and Caterers' club. The feature of the services here, Tuesday afternoon, was the beautiful solo sung by Warren J. Cossey. The floral tributes were exceptionally profuse and beautiful. The church was crowded. Undertaker Howard Slaughter was in charge of the funeral and accompanied the remains to Springfield. "Prince" is survived by his widow, Mrs. Lulu Cowan Hunley; his mother, two brothers and four sisters. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Won After Many Weeks' and Months' Hard Battling President Johnson and the Civil Rights Protective League The Women Pickets-Judge Summers, Attorney James and Daniels-All Do Grand Work for the Race. Springfield, O.—Law and decency still prevail in the good old "Buckeye State" and "Jim crow" schools in Ohio have received their death-blow from the courts. Frank M. Krapp, Common Pleas judge of Clark county, in a lengthy decision, handed down, Jan. 31, 23, in the suit of James W. Leigh and Chas L. Johnson, representing the Civil Rights Protective League to restrain the Board of Education from making a separate or "jim-crow" school in the Fulton district, the temporary injunction granted by former Judge Frank, W. Geiger, some weeks ago, was made permanent. In a review of the evidence submitted, all the sophistries and baseless contentions, by which Supt. McCord and his servile male members of the Board of Education had endeavored to fool the public, were swept aside by Judge Krapp in clear and logical conclusions of the C. R. P. League, that have appeared from time to time in the columns of "The Old Reliable" Gazette, were admitted as proven. The digest of the decision, which will be found elsewhere in this issue, will show that the court only reaffirmed what has already been stated by the Supreme Court of the State—that, separate schools for established in Ohio by any kind of manipulation. This fact should be kept in mind by our people, everywhere in the State where, the same thing is being or may be tried. Another important matter not mentioned in the decision but which was the subject of a ruling from the bench, concurred the legal value of petitions of our parents for a separate school. An attempt to have such a petition, as well as a counter petition of protest, admitted as evidence was overruled by the court as not being necessary as the case had to be decided according to the law governing the conduct of the public schools of the state. The same position was taken by the court in Cincinnati where our people are engaged in a similar struggle. There such a petition was thrown out for the same reason. Petitions purporting to come from our parents, requesting separate schools, is a favorite device employed by those who try to inaugurate "jim-crow" schools where they are not allowed by law. These petitions are circulated by selfish and stupid Negroes and signatures more often secured by misrepresentation, as was done in this city. The disclosures of Mrs. Rayner, which were reported in a previous issue of The Gazette, are what led the court to say that there was a "careful and methodical plan to make a separate school" etc. As reprehensible and contemptible as has been the School Board, Supt. McCord and those white persons who have aided in this, the boldest and most determined attempt to "Dixieize" our citizens of this city, it is as nothing the negroes who have given their assistance to this vicious K. K. K. scheme to reduce our people to an everlasting condition of inferiority and servility. The offense the people came to realize the enormity of these Negroes offense, the more determined they are, that such Negroes be made to know that they are not welcome in Springfield. At the present writing, the School Board has given no intimation as to what course it intends to pursue in regard to the alternatives submitted by the court. In keeping with their previous record of evasion, the male members of the Board are envoicing to shift on the court the responsibility that properly belongs on them. McCord's contention that the school with the teachers there, if the court provides a way to do so, is another of his sophistries as the injunction only definitely decided that the school could not be conducted as a separate school for our children.碳Copenhagens' and Hutchins' reports of telephone calls from a man refusing to give his name, who said that a large number of children in IN UNION IS STRENGTH COPY FIVE CENTS nted! Good! Ful Victory! Weeks' and Months' Battling Civil Rights Protective League Judge Summers, Attorney All Do Grand Work Race. the district would attend the school if it were opened again with the colored teachers and the pickets removed so they could not "intimidate" children, show that they have not yet given up their hope of having a "jim-crow" school in the Fulton district if only till the end of the year. As to the anonymous man who called by telephone, if there was any such incident, it is not hard to guess the name of the man. The more practical solution is that offered by Mrs. Helen B. Garyer, who suggested that the Board employ, white teachers for the school and then all pupils, (in the district) would return to school. The colored teachers would have to be paid, but would not need to teach. As would be expected, there was much rejoicing among our people over the magnificent victory won. And the officers of the C. R. P. League and attorneys have received much well M. Judge Frank M. Krupp deserved praise for the result of their efforts. President Johnson is especially to be commended for the masterly way in which he conducted the campaign and the faithfulness with which he has served our people under circumstances that were most trying. In addition to the pickets whose work was most important, there are hundreds of others who have contributed whatever and wherever they could to help in the fight for the freedom and self respect of their children. While all have not given to the same degree, there are many who have made greater sacrifices to give what they did than others who gave more. It was a people's fight, pure and simple, and a people's victory. Nor must we fall to mention the hearty support received from those who have recently arrived from "jim-crowm" sections of these U. S. "the enthusiasm and ardor of these people certainly gave the lie to those who claim that all southern Negroes prefer such conditions. To its loyal and progressive ones should be a hearty welcome, asking them only to help maintain the liberties and privileges they find here. To those, who would prefer "jim crowism", be they native born or immigrants, let them go or stay where "jim crowism" is an established institution. While it has been agreed that the C. R. P. League is to continue, there is general satisfaction that President Chas. L. Johnson has consented to remain at its head. C. R. P. League, people of Springfield and the State of Ohio, be vigilant. In the language of the father of our country, "Eternal vigilance, is the price of Liberty." TELEGRAMS! Springfield, O., Feb. 1, '23. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O.

The industrial school for girls of questionable character which Supt. Jones is advocating would be for all wayward school-girls, without reference to race or color, and be operated on the order of the (bad) boys' school.

These girls are to be lower organized, they are behind their regular grades in school—as well as lacking in moral character." Mr. Jones says.

But somehow, I feel that the Negro, like the rest of mankind, must learn to work out more of his problems along business lines than he has in the past; he must learn as others have learned, that a great deal of the so-called race problems can and must be worked out at six per cent.

WAR SAVINGS STAMPS TO BE REDEEMED (Special to The Gazette.) Springfield, O. — Sup't. McCord and the Board of Education received a knock-out jolt, recently when Judge Frank W. Geiger of the Court of Common Pleas overruled the demurrier of the board to the petition of Chas. L. Johnson and J. W. Leigh for a permanent injunction. The decision, which was rather lengthy, required a full half hour for the judge to read. The demurrier admitted the truth of the allegations of the petition, to the effect that the board of education is, by transfer of pupils, seeking to establish at the Fulton building, a school exclusively for our children. The court's ruling referred to a precedent set by the Ohio supreme court in a similar case and indicated that he would call in the case now pending Judge Judge Gee, if that inasmuch as the legislature had, in 1887, repealed the specific statute which permitted the establishment of an exclusively colored school, that separate schools for colored children in Ohio have been Cost $16,3 Cuyahoga County Q County Auditor Zangerle $4,700 for a Casket and Shown by A The high cost of living, be it ever so lofty, is as nothing in comparison with the high cost of being dead and buried. So excessive are the expenses incident to dying, as reported to County Auditor John A. Zangerle, that Zangerle ordered an investigation by the county prosecutor's office yesterday. The specific purpose of the estate is to determine how the estate of Edward B. Brun, who died little more than a year ago, has dwindled in that time from $16,648.19 in cash and bonds to $286.05. Schools Lose Funds. Inasmuch as Brandon left no known heirs, Zangerle sail., the entire residue of the estate, after funeral and other attendant expenses had been paid, should revert under the law to the state to be credited. That fact is now indicated in now listed as the $286.03. Funeral expenses of $8.147, medical attention costs of $$22, legal service expenses of $4.450 were included in the report filed in probate court by T. W. Walker, 2845 Pine Ave., administrator of the estate. A detailed expenses were listed as follows: as follows: One bronze casket..... $4,700.00 Funeral..... 465.00 Cemetery lot..... 782.00 Monument..... 2,200.00 Nursing..... 320.00 Physician..... 2.00 Legal expenses..... 4,450.00 Debt to administrator..... 2,229.00 Administrator's expenses..... 751.00 Fool This Fellow Savings C abolished, and that no regulation can be made under any now existing statute which does not apply to all children, irrespective of race or color. Continuing, the court said that "in the Fulton school district there are about three hundred colored and two hounded white pupils who were said to school in 1920-21, and that the enrollment for the ent school year would be about the same, but for the fact that the board of education is attempting unlawfully, to establish and maintain said school as a school exclusively for colored children; that the board has not declared to do so indirectly, and that it has transferred all white children to other districts from the Fulton school district, refusing them admittance in their own district; that such acts have been done solely because of race or color of said children; that they unlawful and an abuse of the corporate powers of defendant, and a waiver of money of the taxpayers, and an irreparable injury to plaintiffs." 62 To Die!

Rogers, named as the undertaker, declined to describe the $4,700 casket for the benefit of an awe-striken News reporter. Officials of the View Cemetery association said the $782 casket was a very choice one, both as to shape a location. It is a "monument lot" large enough for five or six graves, they said. Zangerle Asks Quiz. The debt to the administrator, according to his report, was for board and lodging from Nov. 15, 1915, to Dec. 19, 1921—$2,229. The bill of 320 for nursing was paid to Rebecca Walker and the amount for legal expenses to Attorney Joseph Dembe, the lawyer. Dembe said a large port of expenses has been for traveling about in search of sible heirs. The report also shows that only two automobiles were used in the funeral. Zangerle, who discovered the shrinkage after the administrator applied for an estimate of the inheritance tax due, requested Assistant County Prosecutor Thobaben to investigate. The accounts must be approved eventually by Protote Judge Alexander Hadden. But Zangerle took other action.

MOLASSES SENDS AUTOS, SPINNING May Supplant Gasoline and Hit High Cost of Motoring a Car Running automobiles by molasses! That's what you may be doing before long, for experiments looking to the production of an inflammable distillate from that product having reached a climax, a company has been organized in Natal, South Africa, with a capital of $275,000 to build a plant for the manufacture of the fluid, with a capacity of 6,000 gallons daily. The recently rising prices of gasoline are doubtless what have led to these efforts to make a distillate at a sufficiently low cost to become a direct competitor of gasoline. The men back of this new fuel go so far as to say the new fuel may supply gasoline. It will knock the "high" out of the cost of motoring at any rate, they declare. Demonstrations have been made with a twenty-two horse power car weighing some 3,600 pounds. The car was tested on several routes, the total distance covered being slightly more than 500 miles. The roads were laid to have been heavy during two days and fine during the rest of the time. In this case the amount of new motor fluid or spirit used was 30.59 gallons, or an average of 16.4 miles per gallon, or 26.2 ton-miles per gallon. The engine on all occasions started easily, whether cold or warm. The valve caps and valve heads were found to be very clean after the trial. Alcohol has been experimented with for a long time, and in direct competition with gasoline, but the United States gasoline has been thought to be the cheaper of the two products, all things considered. In the present instance, however, better results have been obtained than elsewhere. A large percentage of the alcohol is said to be converted into either, thereby reducing the density and increasing the volatility. The largest railway scale in the world has recently been completed at West Albany, N. Y. It is capable of accommodating a load of 1,650,000 pounds. It consists of six weighing instruments, each having a capacity of 275,000 pounds. It is designed for weighing locomotives and other heavy rolling stock. The railroads connecting Chill and Belivia, which crosses the Andes 14,105 feet above sea level, provides oxygen chambers in which passengers can get relief from the rarefied air of the high altitudes.

Misled 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: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. My Dear Sir: Obey the letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. I PRAVIEW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPRODUCTION for our courts and duties, in administration. No word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very truly yours.
