Editor Gazette —The following will help to explain why the commodities of life and rents are always at a maximum price and wages at a minimum, and why it's so hard to get a home of your own. The writer, a builder, makes it a practice to buy a lot and build a house on it to sell. Two years ago, he paid $1.125 for a lot on Bunts Road. The person he bought from paid $700 for it, four months before that time. After building a house on it and when he sold the property, one year ago, lots there were selling for $2.500. In many other parts of Cleveland and suburbs, land values have increased from one hundred to five hundred per cent, the biggest increase being on business property which benefits Very few at the expense of the many. All of the people, collectively, of their mere presence in Greater Cleveland, are the ones who make all land here more or less valuable. As the population increases so will the value of land continue to increase. Every child born here and every person who comes to make their home in Greater Cleveland, adds $1,000 to the value of land, as the total increase in value every year is fifty million dollars. Readers of The Gazette can learn of a very simple plan, that if made effective law, would enable all of the people of Greater Cleveland to continually share equally in the benefits of the more than one billion dollars of land value that all have created. They can do it by getting their names on the mailing list of the Singletax Party of Ohio and also will save the price of a ticket and an occasional trip to the theatre, as they will learn many of the jokes, that were told in Ireland and Georgia more than a hundred years ago.

VIRGIN ISLANDS FRICTION The Governor and Legislature Clash Over Greatly Needed Reforms—Police Chief Nolan, an American "Cracker". New York City.—Tension between Gov. Philip Williams of the Virgin Islands and the Colonial Council of St. Thomas has developed over the council's resolution calling for an investigation of the police force, a new form of government to replace the naval administration, and a new franchise law. The governor refused to act on the resolutions, and also failed to give the Council "sufficient satisfaction" as requested by the resolution, for the statement recently made by Police Chief Nolan that "the niggers down here don't want law and order". In response to the three resolutions calling for "the appointment of a committee to investigate the Police Department", a committee "to investigate the matter of a new organic act", and a committee "to inquire into the matter of the franchise". Gov. Williams wrote that he proposed "to take no action on them". The Colonial Council has challenged the Governor's attempt "to putter its legitimate political activities". J. E. Kuntz, chairman of the Council, replied to the Governor declaring that "the political affairs of the municipality are by nature the domain of the Colonial Council" and that the three committees formed to investigate the police department, a new organic act and the franchise, "will in due time report to the Council". Further difficulties are expected as a result of the Council's getting together on a program in opposition to the American naval officers who now control the islands. "TWO BURLY WHITE BRUTES" Outrage, Torture and Mortally Injure a Girl of the Race—Two U. S. Marines Charged With The Crimes—Dasturally Deed Committed on Government Land. Pensacola, Fla.—A brutal assault and torture was recently committed upon a girl of the race, now dying in a hospital, and two U. S. marines (white), charged with the atrocities crime, have been arrested. The Durham, N. C. Sun, of March S. reports that the young woman was discovered tied to a tree in the woods along a lonely country road, her clothing stripped off her body slashed and with marks on her skin where burning matches had been applied. The two marines, James Kirk, and L. L. Saxton, are stated by the Durham Sun to have been arrested and failed after positive identification by their dying victim. In the pockets of one of them, police officers said, they found a piece of a garment resembling the coat of the injured girl. The crime is reported to have been committed on the local U. S. naval reservation, placing the case in the hands of federal authorities. The accused men are reported to have refused to discuss the charge against them. Of course! SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS PROF. J. W. GREGORY SAYS NEGROES, LATINS, WILL RULE IN THIS COUNTRY FRESH OHIO NEWS (From The World's Bureau.) London, England.—That the white races will be unable in the long run to hold their own against the increasing numbers of Negroes and Latins of mixed blood on the American Continent is the view of Prof. J. W. Gregory, expressed in his latest publication, entitled "The Menace of Color" just issued here. The dark races of the world outnumber the white by two to one, he says, and if the high Negro birth rate is maintained the black population of the United States will be 46,000,000 by the year 2000. Dealing with the problem of finding room for the whites to spread and compete with the colored races, Prof. Gregory says: "Extensive areas for the occupation of the white man are few. Asia has vast empty tracts of good land in Southern Siberia climatically suitable for him. A great increase of the white population along the line of the Siberian Railroad is probable, but the European colonies may be at any time swamped by the cheap labor of Mongolians from the south. "The opportunity for white settlement in South Africa," he continues, "is even more unfavorable, owing to the hopelessness of aristans of the more cultured races competing successfully with the Negroes. North America is no doubt a white man's land, except for the share held YOUNGSTOWN. — Mrs. Bessie Saunders entertained 55 guests, recently, in honor of her father's 55th birthday.

Australia is the one continent which offers a possibility of a twenty-fold increase of its present white inhabitants." Prof. Gregory handles the subject with commendable impartiality and contends that he has no ax to grind and is not advocating the supremacy or extra development of any particular nation or race. He examines the problems of intermarriage between various races' and the antagonism which causes most of the world's persecutions and wars, and comes to the conclusion that "each of the races of mankind has its special merits and has made its own contribution to the progress of the world." He says that "the ethical basis of civilization has been supplied by the Asiatic, to whom are due all the chief religions. For the material basis of civilization, iron, the world is probably indebted to the Negro. The scientific and administrative genius of the European race has discovered how the forces and materials of nature can be made most fully available for the service of man." HIO NEWS gressing.—Atty.

RACE MIXTURE A BENEFIT That Multitots Produce Superior Race in Five Generations Proven In South Sea Island. Washington, D. C.—That mulattoes, the off-spring of white fathers and colored mothers after five generations constitute a superior race, was the message of H. L. Shapiro, white, of Peabody Museum, Cambridge University, in a lecture before the American Association for the Advancement of Science, recently. Back in 1887, according to Shapiro, 12 white mutineers kidnapped 12 black Tahitian girls from the Island of Tahita; near Australia and set up a colony first at Pitcarr Island nearby and later at Norfolk Island. After 100 years, mentally and physically, the present Norfolk Island people are unbelievably superior to their ancestors. "Both in stature and in weight," reads Shapiro's report, "these hybrids are superior to either parent stock; and they illustrate again the hybrid vigor which often attends race mixture." The original mutineers, for instance, averaged 5 feet 7 1-4 inches in height, the Tahitian mothers 5 feet 7 3-4 inches. The present islanders average 5 feet 8 1-2 inches. Their heads are also larger and better proportioned. It suggests that the best treatment for our own unregenerate criminals might possibly be to throw them together with native women, on some savage island, to leave them alone—and then to wait for the miraculous new race which may result in 100 years' time. --- SUBSCRIPTION RATES One Year ..... $2.00 six Months ..... 1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter.

We have no patience at all with the "Negro" newspaper that has the brazen effrontery to try to sing praises of President Calvin Coolidge to its unfortunate readers. --- After reading what Prof. J. W. Gregory of London, England, has to say about Negroes and Latins eventually ruling this country, and what H. L. Shapiro of Peabody Museum, Cambridge University, says about race mixture improving races, prejudiced Americans, especially those in the South, will find it difficult to sleep nights. These two eminent men are surely shooting their pet hobbies full of holes. Too bad, isn't FISK UNIVERSITY TROUBLES. President McKenzie sent The Gazette, recently, a small booklet containing a number of letters from the parents of students which endorsed directly or indirectly his mal-administration of affairs at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn. It was clear to be seen on reading the letters that Mr. McKenzie, or some one under him, had furnished the parents with "information" favorable to his side of the controversy and that upon this they had based their letters to him. Now comes the rebellious students with a lengthy printed statement of their side of the controversy which endorses and explains much that has come to the surface (from other sources) in that University's troubles. The statement makes a wonderfully strong case against President McKenzie and places him in a position that will justify the University trustees in dropping him and securing another president. Indeed, it seems to us that the students' efforts ought to compel them to do so, if they really have the vital interests of the institution at heart. In common with hundreds of other friends of Fisk University, including the great majority of its alumni, we feel sure that an unbiased and fair investigation of both sides of the controversy, and a proper consideration for the most unfortunate condition at the school resultant from it, will make their duty to the University clear to the trustees, and that is to relieve Prof. McKenzie of the presidency just as soon as possible and replace him with an abler and broader-minded man. In his determination to cater to southern prejudices of various kinds, he is not only a detriment to the University but a positive hindrance to the proper schooling and advancement of the students. No man who will permit such a condition to arise and continue for so long a time is fit to preside over one of our oldest and best schools. That is also perfectly clear. Replace President McKenzie! JOHN MITCHELL WINS AGAIN! Our long-time confreer and friend, Editor John Mitchell of the Richmond (Va.) Planet, president of the Mechanics Savings bank of that city that failed, many months ago, has won a long drawn-out fight in the courts of that state to get a new trial, and we are glad. As a result of the bank failure, he was accused and convicted in a lower court of "false and fraudulent entries with intent to defraud the Mechanics Savings bank". The Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia found that no fraud on his part was shown in the lower court and orders a new trial which we feel sure will result in the complete vindication of our long-time friend. John Mitchell has been too long on the "firing-line" for our people and has done far too much good, unselfish work for the race for any of us who know him to be able to believe that he would defraud the Mechanics Savings bank or anything else, especially a business proposition which he headed that meant so very much to the race not only in Richmond but to those throut the country. BUSINESS' INFLUENCE ON NEWS-PAPERS. In an address at the Mu-So-Lit club, Washington, D. C., recently, Mr. Avery C. Marks, Jr., managing editor of the Washington Daily Times, a Hearst publication, said, with reference to "Newspapers and Their Relation to the Public and the Community": "A newspaper is and must be, before anything else, a business institution. If you will keep that thought in mind, when you attempt to analyze the attitude of newspapers toward certain problems you may find the answers to many seemingly mysterious puzzles. It must follow along lines of other successful commercial companies, and form to the laws of merchandising, just the same as do the manufacturers of other products. "To be financially solvent a newspaper must be honest, unbiased, independent, and must reflect and promote the best interests of its community. It must work for the good or the people of the city in order to have sufficient prestige to maintain itself. And so the very necessity for making a publication self supporting or profit making produces a situation that gives the public, honestly conducted, constructive or organs working for the good of the community." It is simply impossible, we believe, to underestimate the baneful influence of "business" on the newspapers of today. A case in point is the fear to properly criticise the photoplay business because of the large sums of money spent with the newspapers by that business. Scores of other cases could be cited, but it is unnecessary. The commercialized press of the country includes nearly all of the newspapers, especially daily publications, and magazines. The press of this country is not "independent" and has not been for years. It is and has been controlled by "business" and is not free to be "honest, unbiased, independent", and to "reflect and promote the best interests of the community" unless it is to the best interests of "business" that it do so. This same is true true when it comes to "working for the good of the people", anywhere. "The very necessity for making a publication self-supporting or profit-making" is what produces the very unfortunate condition, just the opposite of the one Editor Marks outlines. No publication that bows to the will of "business" can possibly "work for the good of the community", at all times. It is not free to do so, because of the baneful influence of "business". The days when newspapers stood for the people as against all else are gone, we tear, forever. There is today not one prominent publication of the kind in the country, and about every one knows it. The cause is the baneful influence of "business". There are a few weekly and monthly class or special publications, like some few of our papers, that are not "endowed" but are "operated at a loss", that are free of the baneful influence of "business" and are "honest, unbiased and independent" and that really try constantly to "reflect and promote the best interests" of their people or class of workmen, etc. As to our publications, Edit Marks said: "You have papers published for the consumption primarily of colored people. You read them, and you should. They are an integral part of your life. They set forth the news of people of your race in greater detail than can be done by other papers, which print a great deal of additional news. These publications are valuable. I urge you to read them. Asking them remain honest and unbiased in their news columns, they contribute in no small degree to your information and therefore, to your betterment." There are a number of our papers that are not entitled to be included in the foregoing because of the benevolent influence of "business", political business. For instance, it is that and that alone that causes some of them to continue to keep from their readers the truth as to the miserable mistreatment of our men and women clerks and other employees in the departments at Washington, D. C., and elsewhere in the government service. These race newspapers are continually trying to find an excuse for the President and in other ways trying to relieve him of his responsibility in the matter. In this, at least, they are NOT "honest and unbiased", either in their news or editorial columns. RACE WEALTH, TWO BILLION. Tuskegee, Ala.—The estimated wealth of Afro-Americans is $2,000,000,000, according to a recent survey made for the Research Section of the American Sociological Society by Prof. Monroe N.

Gibbons Wants $200,000 Chicago, Ill.—Eddie Kane, manager of Tom Gibbons, has demanded a guarantee of $200,000 for a Gibbons-Harry Wills contest for the Italian hospital fund in New York, June 13. Gibbons' terms were made clear, a telegram replying to an offer from Herbert J. Fugacy, of New York. Hubbard Equals 1924 Record Evanston, Ill.—De Hart Hubbard of Michigan University, Olympics broad jump champion, in winning first place in the 50-yard dash in a crack meet at Northwestern University, recently, not only enabled his school to capture the Western Conference indoor track championship but also forced him to equal the Conference record of 52-9, which was made by murray of Illinois, in 1914, in the held with ribbard were some on the nearest dash men in the country. Michigan beat Wisconsin for the first time, with points being scored by the versatile champion broad jump star. Hubbard was at Carpenters hall, E. 50 St., Cleveland, and last week Thursday evening, when the Dunbar Centers basketball team (students) of Ann Arbor (Mich.) with which he is connected, beat the Cleveland Acmes Our National Baseball League. Chicago, Ill.—The releasing of Grant, veteran first baseman; Dixon, veteran catcher; Whitworth and Tom Williams, two former mainstays on the pitching staff; Jimmy Lyons, outfielder; Wolfolks, the tall rang pitcher from Kentucky, and the going of Pitcher Rile to Indianapolis and the sending of Roth to Birmingham by Andrew "kube" Foster, is the first big move on the part of the owner of the American Giants to rebuild his team with an eye on the coming championship fight. With this move comes the announcement from Wilkerson, owner of the world champion Kansas City Monarchs, that Wide Johnson of Baltimore goes back to Kansas City Heavy Johnson, the home run king. The Indianapolis club is very busy scouting for new players. The signing of William Dismukes by Bubbles Lewis, owner of the Memphis Red Sox, is another big move in our National League, as Memphis has bolstered up its weakest spot. Dismukes, an experienced pitcher, schooled under the late C. I. Taylor, is sure to make good. At Detroit, Buddy Petway retains the management of the new club, although Blount's action has forced a change in the ownership. The Detroit roster of players remains the same. The Monarchs, with the exception of the Johnson trade, will present the same lineup as in 1924 when the National League championship but copied our world series money and title from the crack Hildale club of the Eastern League. Joe Rush has signed W. B. Patterson of Houston, Texas, the lote manager of the Houston Buffaloes, to pilot his 1925 outfit. The Birmingham Black Barons expect to fin- A REAL WOMAN! Sold Her Home to Fight In The Courts For Justice—Her Brother, innocent of Crime, Was Lynch—Hourry an Insulli Malvern, Ark. — Damage suites have been brought by Mrs. Callie Henry, of this place, against four men whom she and other witnesses saw among a mob which lynched her brother, John Harrison, in 1922, for a crime of which he was afterward found to be innocent. Mrs. Henry brought another suit, for nonfiance, against the sheriff and his deputies, which was disallowed. The damage suit is soon to be heard. Mrs. Henry, an invalid, and the two children of John Harrison, whose mother is dead, whom her brother had supported, sold her home for $400 to pay her lawyer. Through Atty, Scipio A. Jones, the N. A. A. C. P. is contributing $250 toward the expenses of the case. CHARACTER. Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a ripier growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For forty-two years The Gazette has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser. EDITOR. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. ish well up in the first division. The Cubans will bring a much stronger club this season. Foster' has not signed Ware, the young first-sacker from Wiley, this year. On the initial sack may be found John Donaldson, late of the Kansas City Monarchs, and if matters cannot be straightened out with the player or the former owners of his services, Foster will have to use Jim Brown or Torriellan at first. The addition to his staff of Frank Stevens, outfielder and pitcher; Taylor, outfielder, and McCall, pitcher, leaves the Giants in pretty good nighting shape. Bubbles Anderson, crack second sacker, has also been added to the list of the American Giants. Jack Dempsey Blacklisted New York City.—Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion, was declared ineligible to engage in any boxing bouts in this state by the New York state athletic commission at its meeting, Tuesday. This action was taken because of the failure of Dempsey to accept the challenge of Harry Wills. The suspension, the commission said, was until such time as Dempsey agreed to meet Wills. Tommy Gibbons, St. Paul heavyweight, has also filed a challenge to Dempsey with the commission, but the deft of Wills was given precedence because it was filed a week before the AAA championship of the N. Y. boxing commission, issued two statements following the meeting. One said: "Dempsey is placed upon the ineligible list for his failure to comply with the law governing boxing champions in the state of New York." The other follows; "The New York state athletic commission forbids any licensed club, matchmaker or any official connected with a licensed club in this state from entering into a contract or having any negotiations for a match with a licensed club on this ineligible list of the New York State Athletic commission." Afraid to Fight Harry Wills. Ray Campbell (white), a well-known sport writer for the daily newspapers, said the first of the week: "I believe Dempsey wants to quit because he no longer has confidence in his ability to fight. His sorry showing in his bout with Gibbons and his narrow escape from defeat at the hands of that big clown, Firpo, probably robbed" him of his former "i'm cock of the roost and nobody can run me off" attitude. I have reason to believe he thinks any man of some ability may whip him up because the reason why he should take that whipping when Jack Kearns will receive half his purse and the government will gobble up another sizable part of what he has "Still, Jack Dempsey, as heavyweight champion, will be a better drawing card in pictures in which he will be co-starred with his wife, Estelle Taylor, than he will as the man who retired because, as it will be hinted, he was 'afraid to fight Wills'. So Jack will probably continue to expostulate that he is 'ready to meet Wills at any time' while he is going ahead with his movie work. The people will be locked at any rate, he always believed Dempsey could make Wills without experiencing much trouble doing it. But if Jack thinks otherwise—well, it will be his opinion and not yours or mine that will keep him out of a bout with Wills." RACE PREJUDICE! "I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than race prejudice; none at all" "I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world." —H. G. Wells. Tell It, Brother, Tell It! Teil 1, Brother, Teil 1. There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to believe they can help others. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't gain anything by fooling ourselves into thinking that everything is all right. Everything, affecting the lives of Afro-Americans, is all wrong. The sooner we face these facts, the quicker we will begin to work for others to avail the sooner we will attain our rightful place as American citizens. — Philadelphia Tribune. ```markdown ``` 'HUMAN NATURE'S THE NAME TRADE PORO MARK A SYMBOL OF QUALITY Your name defines your character and personality and is a symbol of what you are.
