We pray your answer; and To take cognizance of the segregating and herding together, apart from others, of Colored Americans in public conveyances, even in interstate commerce and transportation, a treatment normal in a republic only for defective, diseased, criminal humane and for the lower animals; and To take cognizance of the refusal by the federal government to permit colored men to enter West Point, or the federal military, citizens training camps except segregated, and when applicants are sufficiently numerous to make up a unit, or permit Colored military units to be incorporated in regiments with other American soldiers, or permit these or even whole Colored regiments to be part of that region's division. We pray you to remove, this color discrimination and ask your answer, and; To take cognizance of the failure to admit Colored youth to Annapolis or to enlist them, or permit them to become sailors, marines, seamen, or even petty officers, except in the mess or as coal passers and trimmers or as oilers, and to abolish this race discrimination.

To free by pardon or on parole the Colored soldiers of the gallant 24th in Fort Leavenworth federal prison already so long for retaliation, poorly proven or not proven at all, against goading insult and provocation and insult to women of their race.

The "Powder River" Jim-Crow Theater Attempt—Prompt and Proper Action"Did the Business"—Personal—Lodge—Political, Springfield, O.—"Powder River," a moving picture of the important battles of the World War, is being shown at a local theater, under the auspices of "disabled veterans" of the World War. It was announced that "the entire second balcony would be reserved for colored people." This was a rotten insult and was so regarded by the members of Antonio Bailey post, A. L. Consequently articles appeared in the local papers, asking our people to stay away from the theater, and they were prepared to "picket" it, if necessary. It was not necessary, however, as the objectifiable lines disappeared from the advertisements and the attempt at "jim-crowing" our people discontinued—Jesse A. Thomas of N. Y. City, N. U.

Nieding, age 41, was born at Vermilion, Ohio. He has practiced law in the City of Cleveland for the past twenty years. He is a graduate of Western Reserve University. His campaign for municipal judge consists solely in advertising and he has asked and will ask the support of no organization whatever. If elected, he desires to be under no obligation to any person and every man coming into his court may rest assured of a fair and impartial hearing irrespective of religion, race or creed. The Gazette urges its readers, voters, to support Mr. Nieding, because it is to our interest to do so. Remember John A. Nieding and help elect him a municipal judge. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS (Forwarded by the Universal Service Bureau. Article 3.) Baltimore, Md.—The two other boats, in addition to the Yarmouth, were the Kanawha and the Shudyside. The Kanawha was a yacht built by Seabury's Shipbuilding Company for some millionaire in 1907. During the war she was commandered by the U. S. government for use in the navy and war-time use had practically put her boilers and engine out of commission. She was a very valuable piece of property in her day, but at the time she was purchased by The Black Star Line Company she was worth but very little and to put her in shape again would cost thousands of dollars. However, the company had paid $65,000 for her which was $55,000 more than she was worth. The Kanawha was of no material value, was no good for commercial purpose, and could not even be used successfully in the West Indian intercolonial trades. She had been very speedy, and consumed more coal than would clear her expenses. She was equipped with Seabury water tube boilers and the most delicate and high powered piece of machinery any ship could have. At the time she was bought by The Black Star Line her boiler's tubes had been practically burnt out and her machinery, condensers and evaporators were all out of commission. I failed to see why such a ship was bought. She had no cargo space and could only accommodate thirty-five passengers. The Kanawha made several vain attempts to sail from New York for the West Indies. The first was made by a white captain (Captain Swift), the very man from whom they had bought the ship, and who recommended her as a first-class ship. This man could not take the ship any further than the Jersey coast and had to put in at Philadelphia. He left her there because the ship was not sea-worthy. She was towed back to New York and after lying there, a few months, Mr. Garvey decided to make his excursion tour of the West Indies and Central America in his yacht, the Kanawha. He thereupon contracted with the Morse dry dock in Staten Island to repair the ship for $25,000 and, after a wait of about two months, he had to leave for the West Indies without the Kanawha. Not knowing any better, O. M. Thompson, vice president and general manager of the Black Star Line, extended President Garvey's contract with the Morse Dry Dock Co. from $25,000 to $45,000 for the contemplated repairs on the Kanawha. When the Dry Dock Co. announced the completion of the repairs, I warned him that the ship was NOT completed and that she would never reach the West Indies adding: "If she happens to get there, she will never return." I knew the work on the water-tube boilers was not done as it should have been. However, my advice was ignored, as usual, and the ship sailed; this time under Captain Richardson, a member of the race. As soon as the ship got outside of New York-harbor, she broke down and had to return for repairs. After putting in some more tubes in her boilers, she sailed again. This time she reached Nqfork, Va. Then limped to Florida and Havana. It took the Kanawha 25 days to get to Cuba. A ship in good condition could make the run in three days, but as I said before she was lucky to get there at all. After some extensive repairs in Havana, she managed to get to Santiago, Cuba, and from there to Kingston, Jamaica, but crippled for fair. They tried to proceed to Colon, but could not make it. However, after Mr. Garvey IN VINION IS STRENGTH E COPY FIVE CENTS 0,000 NCE IN SHIPS e Chadwick" Kind ds Wasted Farmouth Only Worse—Why led Made Perfectly Clear stery Ship." spent $10,000 more on her in Jamaica she succeeded in reaching Antilla, Cuba where she is, still lying at anchor, if the Cuban government has not sold her for harbor dues. This was the end of $65,000 paid to Mose Dry Dock and other companies for repairs. In addition there were numerous other expenses incurred in the effort to run the ship. The Kanawha must have cost about $200,000, in all, of the Black Star Line Co.'s money and, in return, never turned in to it one cent. I have shown how very expensive and unseaworthy was the boat, Yarmouth; in article 1. In this article, I have covered the expensive and also unseaworthy Kanawha, the second of the Black Star Line's three boats. In my next and last article, I will cover the third boat's experiences, etc., and explain the "mystery ship," the Phyllis Weatley, and explain the status of the Orion deal which never went thru.

Five missionaries for Cleveland, have been appointed by Bishop Joshua H. Jones of the A. M. E. Church. Some other appointments made by him for the Cleveland district at the conclusion of the five- day conference meet in St. John's church follow: Presiding elder, P.W. Woodson; St. John's church, Cleveland, E. A. Clarke; Warren church, Toledo, T. A. Nicholg; Sanduszy, W. S. Alos; Fremont and Norwalk, J. Baker; Lima, to be supplied; Kenton, E. Bishop Joshua H. Jones. Artis; Lorain, G. R. Wingsfield; Marion, H. E. Lewis; Rossford, T. N. Sellers; Kinsman Rd. mission, Cleveland, John Johnson; Van Wert, to be supplied; Delphos, and Middle Creek, to be supplied. Missionaries for the Cleveland district are: Elisha W. Harper, H. E. Wallace, J. C. Calhoun, David Irvin and Elias King; Lima, George Soul; Toledo, Martha Lambert. The following evangelists also were appointed. Lima, Edward Glover; Cleveland, Frances H. Hampton; Lima, M. B. Powell; Rossford, Gertrude Tate. Rev. H. E. Beasley and Rev. C. M. Hogans were transferred from the North Ohio conference to the Ohio conference. The bishop also made appointments for the Youngstown district which will be published in our next issue. Bishop Jones announced that $9,000 had been turned over to the conference by its various churches. This money will be distributed for educational, missionary and church extension work. The following were elected delegates to the general conference: Rev's. Charles Bundy, J. M. Gilmore, W. T. Anderson and T. W. Woodson. Alternates are Rev's. Joseph Evans, T. A. Nichols, E. A. Allen and James A. Collins. The conference opened, last week Wednesday morning and closed Sunday night. There was a large attendance of pastors, laymen and friends. $350 were raised, last week, at St. John's church for Wilberforce University. $2650 had been raised prior to that time, making a total of $3000. St. John's church leads the country in the matter of raising funds for the school. Its annual report shows that St. John has raised, during the year, for all purposes a grand total of $28,147.74. Dr. E. A. Clarke, pastor of St. John's, is a splendid leader and a fine man.

SATURDAY, OCT. 20, 1923 Why should America try to help restore peace in Europe when it can't even restore peace in Oklahoma? Americans may not agree with Lloyd George, but they will accord him the courteous treatment we always extend to a visitor. Mr. Lloyd George may have the satisfaction of knowing that the hoodlums who threw eggs at him in New York City are not Americans. They may be citizens, technically, but their interests are still in Europe. It is too bad that they cannot be deported to the land where their hearts are. Business must be bad or at a standstill at the Empire Savings and Loan Co. Its president and secretary are both candidates for office. Wonder what its stockholders think. There isn't another Savings and Loan Co. in the city of Cleveland that would stand for such as that. Murrell and Chaucey are each paid a salary by the company to look after its business. They ought to resign or be forced to do so. And if the directors and stockholders are wise they will see that one of these two things take place immediately. It will not take much more to entirely destroy the limited confidence in the young race business enterprise, the Empire Savings & Loan Co. Two unidentified Italians were killed, and a policeman shot in a fight at Scovill Ave. and E. 25th St. Thursday night. Police of the third precinct and the first received a call at 8:30 p.m. M.飞翔 squadrons were rushed to the scene. They found the two Italians dead in a building. Patrolman Benj. Jenkins of the Third precinct was found with a bullet wound over the heart. He was rushed to Charlottesville hospital and was taken to county morgue. There was a fight between Jenkins and the Italians. Jenkins was unconscious and unable to make any statement. Thursday night's outbreak follows a series of murders and cutting affrays in the same district which began about midnight last Saturday and which already had resulted in the deaths of Howard Gause, age 27, of 2123 E. 53rd St.; James Gause, age 25, of 2205 E. 53rd St.; Neal Long, age 21, of 2207 E. 53rd St.; and Robert J. Schreiber, age 24, of 2621 Delora Ave. As a result of two of these crimes two women are being held for the grand jury on murder charges. They are Mrs. Bessie Ferguson of 2205 E. 14th St. and Genevieve Wallace, age 24, of 2534 E. 14th St. County Prosecution Stanton declared, after these killings, that "murders in the Central-Scovillian neighborhood have taken the intended to make every effort to send guilty parties to the electric chair. — Cleveland Dally Timestamp. Oct. 12. '23 Since this sort of thing has been going on for the past five or six years and is a very common thing in that district, it is about time for Prosecutor Stanton and others to wake up. The greatest crying need of the Central-Scovill-Woodland Ave. district is better police protection and has been for at least five years, and we cannot understand the mayor's continued refusal to give it. Maybe it is because our ministers and churches in the district refuse to demand it. Last Saturday, two drug addicts were sentenced to Warrensville by Judge Greene and a third man, arrested with them, was held by federal narcotic agents on a charge of selling to them. The trio had completed a deal at E. 33rd St. and Scovill Ave., in which a large quantity of morphine exchanged hands. Narcotic Agent Jos. Murphy charged. Wm. Adams, 2117 Central Ave., held in connection with the sale, previously had sold to government informers, it was alleged.

Next month, the people will have another chance to get rid of both Finkle and Fleming as councilmen and undoubtedly take advantage of it. It won't be so easy, this time, owing to the greatly increased size of the voting territory, to COUNT in one or both of them. Two years ago, the contests were waged in WARDS 11 and 12. This time, the third DISTRICT includes both of these wards and all the other territory between E. 79th St. and the river, on the east and west, respectively; and the Lake and Kingsbury run (in the valley), on the north and south, respectively. Since Dr. Joe T. Thomas, Herbert S. Chaucey and Howard Murrell were not allied with the good people of ward 11, two years ago, in their heroic effort to unload the "Star-Tom" incubus, it is only fair to presume that they were enlisted under the Starlight-Fleming banner, and "Starlight" Boyd, the most notorious Negro-gambler, etc. Cleveland has ever produced; one who prided himself on being known as "the boss of the underworld" in that section of the city. --- COOLIDGE KILLS CANCELLATION. The program of the American Bankers' Association for cancellation of part of the debts owing to the United States has struck a rock and before long all hands may be expected to desert the ship. While it is possible the Democrats will include cancellation in their presidential platform next year, it is certain that the Republicans will not. President Coolidge proceeds on the principle that it is the people's money which the A. B. A. would like to wipe off the books. In effect, his answer to the bankers' demands for cancellation is that since the United States is prepared to forgive in interest charges the equivalent of the debt, outright cancellation would mean writing off the obligations several times over. The unfunded British debt was bearing interest at the rate of 5 per cent, while the funding agreement calls for 3 per cent, the first ten years, and $3 1/2 per cent thereafter over a total period of 62 years on a principal of $4,600,000,000. The President feels that similar reductions will be granted to the other nations when they are prepared to fund their obligations to this country. People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Attee 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 riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, 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." Our advertisers want your trade. Those who do not ask for it in the columns of "The Old, Reliable" Gazette certainly care little, if at all, for it. Therefore, we urge our readers and all of our friends to patronize those who ask in this paper for your patronage.—Editor. TLIE GAZETTE, CLEVELA1.D. O. SATURDAY, OCT. 20, 1923. PRIME SPORT NEWS Wills Knocks Out Smith. New York City—Harry Willis, the de luxe heavyweight of New york, last week Thursday night, knocked out Homer Smith (winner of Kalamazoo, Mich., in the second round or a fifteen-round match in the Queensborough stadium, Long Island City. Smith is the "pug" that Firpo failed to "kayo" and yet harrie finished him quickly and easily. Jack Dempsey and his friends hawk in the side-step's all enterts to get him to fight Willis, all the time protesting his will- ing to meet him. Harry is Dempsey's master aid, down deep in their hearts, he and they know that that is the real reason. Public opinion will, however, sooner or after, force the match and then we are going to bet (lay) some money for the first time in our lives, and we will put it on "the black panther," too.

New York City.—Washington and Lee University displayed poor sportsmanship when it refused to allow its football team to play against Washington and Jefferson because one of the best players on the latter's team was an Afro-American. The Washington editorial on the refusal which praises the fine playing of the Afro-American football star, is as follows: "POOR SPORTMANSHIP" "Those who saw Washington and Jefferson play Lafayette at the Polo Grounds, last year, are likely to remember the game as a perfect exposition of all methods of football played in the past, and likely to forget the work of Charles West at fullback for W. and J., and how he led his team through a splendid rally in the last quarter. West seemed to inspire his flagging mates, passing and running with such skill as to change defeat into victory in the closing minutes of play. West and the more striking because West was a tall, powerful Negro. "Because of West's presence in the W. and J. line-up, Saturday, at the eleventh hour Washington and Lee declined to play the scheduled game at Washington, Pa. Suspended the men from Lexington and Washington, Pa. of West's prowess in the field. The coach from Virginia regretted calling in his men, but was acting on instructions from Lexington. The Virginians did not refuse to play until it was certain West would not be withdrawn from the line-up. Overtures to have him withdrawn "It is unfair to say that Washington and Lee was inspired by a desire to dispose of the enemy's champion without striking a single blow. It is not unfair to say, however, that they were not good enough sportsmen to risk defeat at the hands of one they regarded as a social injustice or that they were not just say that as Virginians they maintained a shabby tradition, and as sportsmen they deprived themselves of all claim to recognition among those who maintain the brighter traditions of sport." Our Athletes Stand for Fair-Play. Hampton, Va—Our Intercollegiate Athletic Association, which was organized twelve years ago at Hampton Institute by representatives of Howard, Lincoln, Union, Shaw, and Hampton, has just issued its "First Annual Bulletin." Through the influence of this association there has been a steady development of physical education and athletics in our schools and the improvement of the training of sportsmanship seen in intercollegiate contests. The C. I. A. A. is now a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the membership of which is composed of the most representative colleges and universities of America. The association has undertaken the work of encouraging baseball, basketball, and track athletics, as well as the selection and development of competent and impartial officials. The association has also endeavored to spread athletics in our sportsport, not only in universities, but in other schools. W. Rogers of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute at Petersburg, Va., who is the president of this association, has prepared "A review of the 1922 season in the C. I. A. A." "Let us hope," he says, "that the presidents and principals of institutions will constantly preach to their students the gospel of fair-play and true sportsmanship, and, whether we win or lose, let it be that way and that way is the honorable way." Gideon E. Smith, assistant director of athletics at Hampton Institute, outlines "What the Coach Can Do to Develop Clean Sport in Schools." He emphasizes the value of honest decisions, the spirit of fair-play, fairness in cheering, and the importance of eliminating the old spirit of "winning at any price." Louis L. Watson, director of physical education, Howard University, Washington, discusses the association's goal to Promote Track Athletics. The abstract of an address by Dr. J. L. Pescock, Raleigh, N. C., president of Shaw University, on "What the President Should Do to Develop Clean Sport" is included. The details of the constitution of the association are given in this new publication, which also includes the minutes of the twelfth annual meeting, as well as a special meeting which was recently held. Charles H. Williams, director of physical education for boys at Hampton Institute, who is secretary-treasurer of the association, presents a financial statement. This bulletin includes a list of the lettermen for 1922 in football, basketball and baseball at Howard, Lincoln, Union, Shaw, Virginia Theological Seminary and College, Hampton, and Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute. The names of football, baseball, and basketball officials, who have been approved by the association, are also given. The officers of our Intercollegiate Athletic Association, in addition to those officially mentioned in the Association of Virginia Union University, Richmond, Va, first vice president; F. J. Rogers of Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C., second vice president; W. R. Brown of Hampton Institute, third vice president; and Dean Geo. Johnson of Lincoln University, assistant secretary-treasurer. Wm. Anthony Aery. MRS. MARY B. TALBERT DEAD. Buffalo, N. Y.—Mrs. Mary B., wife of Mr. Wm. H. Talbert, died, Monday morning, at their residence here after several months' illness. Heart trouble. Mrs. Talbert is known best as a result of her activities in club and race work, having represented the former, several years ago, at an international women's organization in Europe. She was at one time president of our National Federation of Women's clubs. The outstanding feature of her work for the race was the raising of funds to save the Frederick Douglass home at Anacostia, D. C., to make of it a national headquarters for our N. Y. chapter. She and other relatives survive her and have the heartfelt sympathy of her many friends throughout this country and Europe. HOW THE MOVING PICTURE IS MADE There is a vast difference between even the writing of a clever play and the writing of a good, strong motion picture scenario. The very first things the newcomer must learn are the peculiar limitations and vast possibilities of the camera. A play is rehearsed and little changes made each day as the rehearsals continue. But each day one is looking at the thing in the form it is eventually to be seen. That is, the audience will hear the voices and actually see the person in the flesh as at the rehearsal of the play. How different in the motion picture studio! A five-reel scenario, with its three or four hundred scenes, is ready for production. Rehearsals are in order. The voice is used and speeches uttered as at the rehearsal of the spoken drama. But just here is where the director who is a raw recruit, especially from the theater, is apt to be misled as to values. He must never forget for a moment that that voice is a negligible quantity as far as the finished product is concerned, and that only a photographic representation of the actor is seen. Here is one place where long and conscientious study of that sensitive instrument, the motion picture camera, is necessary. With the proper understanding of the camera and a careful study of the star's head, profile, three-quarters or full face, the wise director need only let his star be seen at her best. It would take more space than I am allotted to point out the things peculiar to motion picture production that must first be learned if one would be a successful producer. From the inception of the story, the writing of the scenario, the selection of the cast, the selection of the star, photography, development of film, cutting of film, splicing and subtitling—it is some long job, all of which needs to be thoroughly understood. To do it well, it were wisest to take off one's coat, roll up one's shirt sleeves, and go to it! Be a super if necessary. The top of the motion picture ladder of success has a few men who so began in the movies. Many atrocities in motion picture production and some very fine things can be attributed to those who have entered the motion picture arena by way of the stage door. The atrocities result in a measure from a feeling of superiority and over-developed ego on the part of the playwright, directors and star from the spoken drama. They are always going to revolutionize the picture business and set heretofore unattained standards in motion picture production. It were better they attained the standards first, and then did their talking.—Film Fun. An Iowa barber has invented a pair of ball-bearing barber shears, which promise to revolutionize the scissors industry. The are said to be far superior to the old sort of shears, will work much easier, cut better and will never wear out. --- The PORO AGENCY a Most Splendid Business Opportunity PORO COLLEGE offers at small cost practical training through which it is an easy matter to have a nice, paying business right in your own home.

PROTEST AGAINST WRONG To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

Officers of the Company—What the Yarmouth Cost and Was Really Worth—Had a Million Dollar Cargo —Garvey a Great Organizer, Says Captain Hugh Mulzac Exceptionally Interesting The “Yarmouth” Purchased For $165,000, Sold For $6,000 Was Worth $25,000 When Purchased—Took on a Cargo for $12,000 That Should Have Netted $45,000— Used As Propaganda—Garvey’s Relatives Bureau) Baltimore, Md.—There have beer so many conflicting reports, giving various reasons for the failure of the Black Star Line that I have decided ‘48 one of the officers of the company to publish the truth. First: The management in the New ‘York office was incompetent. Second: The ships were worthless ‘Third: They were used mostly for propaganda. The office at 56 W. 135th St., New York City, consisted of the following officers fo manage the B.S. L Steamship Corporation: Mr. Marcus Garvey, pres.; M. Jer mia Certain, vice-pres.; Henrietta Vinton Davis, second _vice-pres.; George Tobias, treas.; Smith Green, gen. mer.; L. Johnson, traffic mgr. Not one of these persons knew the first thing about a ship or the man. agement of shipping business. Mr Garvey, a great organizer and the founder of the greatest Negro move- ment on earth, has no knowledge 0: ships or of the shipping business. ‘The frst vice president Is a cigar. maker. The second is a reader and elocttionist. Messrs. Green, Johnson ‘and the other officers were not at all familiar with the business. I had Just returned from Europe as chief officer of the Steamship “Pasadena” of the U. 8. Shipping Board when a letter came to my home from Mr. Garvey asking me to come to New York City to take charge of the “Yarmouth,” as chief officer. 1 heard of his great plans and I. was Yery much enthused. Therefore, 1 immediately resigned my. position with the U. 8. Shipping Board and went to New York City. On my ar- rival, I bought five shares of the Black Star Line stock and also be- came a member of U.N. I. A. From that time I was 4n ardent supporter of Mr. Garvey and believe in him, Dut I never believed in the business methods of the Black Star Line and my only reason for sticking was that J thought Mr. Garvey, recognizing his inability to handle the shipping busi- ness, would eventually turn it over into'the hands of experienced men before failure would come. I knew Uittle of him at that time and did not think that he would be the man he has proven to be. However, on Jan 23, 1820, Tf boarded the Yarmouth as’ chief officer as she was lying at anchor outside the statue of Liberty Jaden with whiskey. I did not like the condition of things, for the ship had just returned from distress off Cape May and was partly water-log- ged. The condition of the passen- (Forwarded by the Universal Serv- fee Bureau. Article 2) Baltimore, Md.—On the Yar- mouth’s arrival in Havans we were greeted by thousands of Negroes and Boats of all descriptions laden with spectators hovered around the ship. T had refused to allow anyone to come aboard until I had completed cleaning and painting. This took five days. However, after that, spec- tators crowded her from stern to stern. ‘The cargo was assigned to no one. Therefore, we had to lay out in the stream for two weeks before we could secure a dock in hope of goiting the cargo.ashore in bond. At that time there was a strike of long- shoremen; it took another two weeks before we finally dischurged the ¢argo. We were in Cuba thirty days. When the charter party for the whisky was drawn no demurrage Clause was entered, the Black Star Line’s manager knowing nothing of the shipping business. This caused the ship to lose the thirty days. The Yarmouth lost $500 a day for that period as a result of the delay. If 2 demurrage clause is entered in the gharter party. It povides that three days after the ship has arrived and is ready to discharge, it is entitled to claim as demurrage, the earning value of the ship, day by day, Sunday included. We had on board thirty- five passengers from New York bound for Jamaica and Colon, who had to be fed and-kept during this time. Foodstuff 1p Havana was extremely high and it cost thousands of dollars for the ship's up-keép with passen- gers on board. However, in spite of all the trouble of the Black Star Line, there was a future for it that no other steamship had had in Cuba. The wealthy Cubans were so enthused that they were willing to give con- cessions, they were willing to secure the trade, if the Black Star Line would secure proper ships. They did not think much of the Yarmouth, as a commercial prospect, but they were enthused over the intelligent body of officers who manned the ship, and Bers, numbering thirtyfive, was pitt. ful. They had to sleep in cold, wet filthy rooms and were“partly frozen I thought at that time that I was be tween the devil and the deep sea for Lhad just given up a decent positior for the sake of race pride. However I decided to fight it out afid make the ship as sea-worthy as possible. Cap. tain Cockburn was master in charg at that time and I questioned hin concerning the conditions, He tolc me that he did not intend to make the trip for Mr. Garvey and that Mr Smith Green had drawn up the mos ridiculous contract he had ever seen ‘Therefore, he had refused to take the ship out of New York. The carg« was worth one million dollars .an¢ the ship'was chartered the day befor: pfohibition went into effect and she had to be loaded away from the por before midnight or the cargo woulk be confiscated. Therefore, the freigh: was valued at $100,000 which the owners of the whisky would have been glad to pay in order to get i out of New York. The Black Star Line’s president ‘and the genera manager drew up a contract for 311,000 without consulting the cap tain, That amount would not ever be enough to pay the expenses of the ship to its destination. Then again. the éargo was not even assigned to anyone and had to be put in bond in Cuba. For these reasons, Captain Cockburn refused to sail. There- upon, the owners of the cargo ap: proached him and offered him $2,000 to take the ship out. He accepted and sailed but unfortunately the whisky was thrown into the ship's hold in such a hurry that the cargc shifted off Cape May as a result of bad weather, causing the ship. tc have a heavy list. She got water- logged and part of the cargo had to be thrown overboard, so the ship had to return to New York. The Yar- mouth was built in 1885 in Scotland and she was a very good ship in her day but her condition at the time she was purchased by the Black Star Line was very poor. Her boiler crowns were entirely gone and had to be patched up at every port. Her hull was practically worn out and her passenger accommodations were “fierce.” She was used for hauling coal during the war and was not In any shape for carrying passengers, Iyalued her, at the time I joined her, at about $25,000, but I learned later that they had paid $165,000 for her. We eventually sailed again for Cuba after I had succeeded in making her seaworthy and got to Cuba on March 3. 1920. thought of a greater future prospect tor the race.” After our cargo was out, we left Havana with passengers ‘only-and two days later were in Ja- maica. The ship's boilers were in very bad shape and had to be welded im every mort. Our chief engineer John O. Garreit, was one of our most Intelligent young engincers and. no one could have handled that ship with better skill. After our boilers had been repaired, the ship coaled and provisioned, we were ordered to Colon. There were only a few pas- sengers on board. On our arrival, we were again greeted by thousands of Negroes who had made elaborate preparations for us. We spent three days in Colon while the captain ar- ranged to take 500 immigrants to Cuba since the ship had no cargo. I had to build accommodations in the ship's hole for them. From Cuba, we were ordered to Bocas Del Foro, then to Admerantic (Republic of Panama), where we loaded 100 tons of cocoanuts. ‘Thence to Port Simon (Republic of Costa Rica). We bad been ordered to these ports as propa- ganda and the U. N. I. A. gained thousands of new members as a re- sult. The prospect of trade was very good. We then sailed to’ Santiago, Cuba, where we landed our immi- grante and sailed for Jamaica again. On our-arrival there, we arranged for a load of cocoanuts, coaled the ship, had the boilers repaired and started to load the cocoanuts when we received a telegram, signed by Mr. Garvey, ordering the ship to sail immediately for Boston, cargo or 20 cargo. However, we got seven hun dred tons of cocoanuts on board and sailed. We could not get enough provisions in Jamaica to take the ship to Boston as it was just after che war and the British government still had its ‘war restrictions in ef- fect. ‘Therefore the captain decided 0 call at Nassau where a Uttle more provisions were secured. We left Nassau and made for the gulf stream, pat when off Cape Hatteras, we found nals mst bao camcah coat Cor: THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0. SATURDAY, OCT. 20, 1923, ede en: Se: ae Tae ship was burning twenty-five tons of coal daily ‘on account of leaky boll ers, We then decided to call at Nor- folk, Va., to coal and provision. On our arrival, we had orders from Mr. Garvey to "proceed to Philadelphia. We had. 700 tons of cocoanuts on board, assigned to New York, and they were perishable, However, we ad to obey orders and proceed to Philadelphia. "After. carrying thru the regular program of the U. N. I A. there, We were again ordered to Boston." ‘After staying. there two days, we were ordered to New York where we discharged the cocoanuts, partly rotten. Finally, the owners of the cocoanuts filed suit against the Black Star Line for damages. At the end of this trip, Captain Cockburn was discharged by Mr. Garvey and a white man (Captain Diseon) was sent to take command of the ship. 0. M Thompson, graduate in commorciai law, was then employed as. gencral matiager. The Yarmouth was again chartered to load fertilizer for Cuba. I did not know what was patd for this charter but the freight’ rate at that time was $22 a ton from New York to Havana, for that kind of a cargo. We were loaded with 900 tons and sailed, After five days of pleasant weather, wo arrived in Cuba and landed our ‘cargo. in five days. We were then ordered to Port au Prince, Haiti. On our arrival, we found no cargo and were running out of coal and. provisions, neither. of ‘which could be had there at that time. ‘Therefore, after three days, and with our few passengers: from Now York to Jamaica on board, Tad- vised the captain to leave immo- diately. Scoing the danger of being stranded in Haiti, he cleared at once for'Jamaica. On'our arrival, we had to have our dollers repaired ‘again, At this time, a Japanese ship called the Kayo Maro was ashore on. the Saranna Banks, 300 miles south of Jamaica, and wanted @ ship to sal vage part of her cargo. Mr. Witson, 4 building contractor, was agent for the Black Star Line in Samatea and, like, the officers of the Line in New York, knew nothing of the shipping business. He, too, was disinclined to be advised’ ‘This was a. salvage cargo, freight valued from three to five times as much as an ordinary cargo. And yet Mr, Wilson drew up ‘a contract to take the cargo at the Same rate per ton and. per cubic measurements as an ordinary cargo. Tt consisted of cotton, iron, lass, Wire, ete., and after it was put into the ship's hole Mr, Wilson's charge was ofly about $12,000. when it should have been At least $40,000. The Kaya Maro had been lying on the rocks for two weeks trying to Ret some ship to'relleve her of part at her cargo 0 that the wrecking tugs would be able to pull her off, but mo ship would take the risk. After a conference between the cap: tain and myself, T advised Mr. Wilson to charter the ship's space (her hole) tor $45,000, which the owners of the cargo would have been glad to pay, but Mr. Wilson would have his own way and the Black Star Line lost the difference between twelve and $45,- 900. The captain (white) was not interested, as this was a Negro’s con- cern and he was only there for what he could-get out of it in the way of salary. However, we sailed for the Sarania Banks with Afty-two passen- gers on board. We succeeded in get- ting alongside the Japanese ship, loaded in two days, with the assist: ance of the Japanese crew, and then proceeded to New York. On our way, wwe had boiler troubles again and our coal was giving out. Therefore, we had to put in at Charleston, 8. C., 10 coal and provision again. ‘Then con: eluded our trip to New York. “On our arrival, I submitted a plan of the cargo to O. M. ‘Thompson, general manager. This plan also con‘ained its weight and cuble measurements, I drew it the two days and miguts we wore loading, I'did not get ten min- utes rest during that time so great wan my anviety to secure the Black Star Line proper pay for carrying the freight on board the ship. We had a super-eargo and a purser on board the ship (Mr, Garvey’s rolatives). However, when the cargo was to be checked off in Now York, The Black Star Line had no one In the office who could measure It so a8 to chesk up with the own rs, ‘Therefore, they had to accept the Mgures submitted to them by the owners of the cargo. This was the last trip of the Yar- mouth because she was un-seaworthy and the boilers were bad. Finally she was taken to Morse's dry dock in Staten Island where she lay until she was sold “at auction by "Mrs Morse for $6,000 for whartage.

DEFINES A TORNADO Causes ‘and Effects of Windstorms— Whgn They Occur—Precaue ee ‘The United States Weather Bureau has issued a series of warnings \and definitions of tornado conditions whieh are briefly summarized beiow. It says that tornadoes are usuail3 preceded by high temperatures and humidity—a weather condition gener aily said to be “sultry,” “stick,” or “op pressive.” Rain may come before With, o after a tornado, or, very rate ly, there may be no rain at all. ‘Tue barometer does not foreieli a tornado, though it indicates low pressuies; and tornadoes always occur in a “low” area, ‘The season in which tornadoes may be expected varies according to the vegion.

Generally they come between 4:20 and 5 p. m, but they may even come at night, Persons may somewhat avoid _tor- nado danger by watching the local signs and reading the weather maps, Witieh at levst show the conditious which favor tornado formation. ‘The luca signs are heavy, dark clouds, (rat im the southwest, almost imme- diately followed by clouds in the northwest aad north, A funnelzhaped cloud is a sure sign, though there may be a tornade when such @ cloud is not readily seen.

The dius der and the whirling motion have 5. en rise to two theories of the deriva tion of the word, ay to whetler it is derived from the Spanish “tronada,” a thunderstorm, or from the Latin “tor hare,” to turn, A cyclone, in the definition of the Weather Bureau, is not necessarily # windstorm of great velocity, but ratit er a widespread storm that mover wh no great speed. Its width may vover several States. This eyclone, 0: urea. of low pressure—indicated as "low" on the weather map—gives con ditions essential to tornadoes. Many cyclones never develop a tornado, but a tornado never develops without the cyclone, and almost invariably the tor- nedoes occur in the southeast quarter of the low area, About 120 cyclones pass across the United States each year, moving in a general way from west to east. ‘They are of great bene fit because they induce a movement of surface air from the south and southeast, and the rainfall that makes the great interior valleys a rich agri- cultural region is dependent upon these southerly, moisture-bearing winds, Practically all of the cyclones of the warm season give rise at some time or place to thunderstorms or hail or vio lent winds. These winds may be vio- Tent enough to cause destruction, but unless they have the whirling column of air they are not tornadoes. In the East it is uot always easy to distin- guish the funnel-shaped cloud, but the Jay of the debris after a storm will tell ‘whether there has been a twisting mo- tion. ‘Tornadoes almost invariably move in an easterly direction and generally from southwest to northeast. The average length of the path of destruc tion is about 25 miles, and this path may not be continuous, if the funnel cloud is not in contact with the earth during its whole course. Sometimes it rises and goes for a considerable distance before descending again. INTERESTING NEW INVENTIONS Smallest Steam Turbine Engine Is Built for a Tug.
