Editor Harry C. Smith of The Cleveland Gazette agrees with Don C. Seltz, former editor of the latter is right in his charge that it is now a commercialized press in this country. Editor Smith added: "There are very few papers that are not being published with a view to making money and that above everything else. Even the race press has reached the point where nearly all of them are afraid to tell our stories, but at all times for fear of offending some politician (white or black), some church, lodge or something else. The honest, loyal, untrammeled press, black and white, is gone forever, it seems. What a pity! The masses of people everywhere are the greatest sufferers, as a result of the Cleveland Gazette, with Editor Smith at the helm, is proof that exceptions are to be found to this sweeping indictment. —New York Age.

Mr. Kellogg was ambassador to English, and was the queen when Hayes sang before the queen by command. At the conclusion of his recital the queen shook hands with Mr. Hayes, and, as is the English custom, every person in the room followed suit except the logg, and Hayes sang became the stocking stock of the Britshers. "Is that the way Americans treat each other?" was their comment. Obituary. Johnstown, Pa.—S. B. Handy, one of our best known residents, died suddenly.

Mencken, in which he inquires pointedly if any group of white southerners can be imagined making such a contribution as the eschewing within the covers of that book, "As one who knows the South better than most," declares Mr. Mencken, "and has had contact with most of its intellectuals, real and Confederate, I must say frankly that I can deed, the 'Negro' challenges the white southerner on a common ground, and beats him, hands down. I call to mind some of the leading Sub-Potomac master-minds of the orthodox faculty: Henderson of North Carolina, Gonzales of South Carolina, old Williams of Mississippi, old Hunt of Alabama, the Richmond News-Leader, the Jackson Daily News, the Nashville Banner—and I range them beside Locke, James Weldon Johnson, Walter F. White, Rudolph Fisher, Kelly Miller and half a dozen other contributors contrast is pathetic. The Africans are men of sense, learning and good bearing; the Caucasians are simply romantic wind-jammers, full of sound and furry, signifying nothing." Inez Richardson Married.

Phillips, commissioner of the Department of labor announces that Mrs. Garvey, self-styled provisional president of Africa, and president-general of the U. N. I. A., now serving a 5-year term in the federal prison at Atlanta, Ga., will probably have his sentence commuted by President Coolidge when he shall have finished (in a few days) the first year of his prison. Then the U. S. department of labor will deport him, Mr. Phillips says. Bishop Ransom's Wife Honored. New York City.—"The Emma Ransom House", the new lodging home for our working girls, will be opened, under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A., at an early date.

Warrenton, Va. — While making his daily rounds with his newspapers, George Freeman picked up what he thought was an ordinary string of beads, carried them home and thought no more about them until he saw advertisements of Mrs. Mitchell and adolphia for a lost string of pearls, valued at $100,000. He returned them and was given a thousand dollars reward. Another Credit to the Race, Texarkana, Ark. — Joe Dedding, (white), a farmer living between Saratoga and Mineral Springs, was brought here, last week Monday morning, placed in hospital for treatment. He suffered knife wounds in the abdomen and side said to have been inflicted by the wife of a tenant on his farm. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS BOMB EXPLODES IN DR. GARVIN'S HOUSE SHATTERS A WINDOW AS MRS. GARVIN ENTERTAINS A DOZEN WOMEN FRIENDS Six Men Seen Fleeing After the Blast—The Garvin Home Must Be Properly Guarded Cannot Depend on Police—Hands Off, Chamber! A home-made bomb was exploded, last Saturday night, at Dr. C. H. Garvin's, 11114 Wade Park Ave. The only damage was the breaking of a kitchen window in the house and five windows in a vacant house, next door, formerly occupied by W. E. MacEwen, vice president of the National Refining Co., a leading member of the gang of residents who opposed Dr. and Mrs. Garvin's occupying the building until the murders were seen feeling after the explosion. Three weeks ago, last Saturday night, Dr. and Mrs. Garvin returned home to find the letters "K. K. K." painted on the side of their house. When the house was under construction, last September, organized efforts were made by a gang of property owners in the Wade allotment to prevent Dr. Garvin from occupying the house. Two mass meetings were held and an organization formed to negotiate with him and to prevent others of our people and Jews from acquiring property or moving into the allotment. About the same time the case, Dr. E. B. Garvin, a property owner in one section of Shaker Heights and the combined agitation resulted in the appointment of a committee of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce to study the situation. The committee's report announced that the Chamber would not interfere with the legal rights of people to OUR EXCHANGES Among the many duties in connection with editing a newspaper, which come before us each week, not a single one affords more pleasure than when we get the large number of excellent publications well edited by those of our group in every section of the country, place them near and carefully peruse their columns. To note the fine evidences of progress and the modern type of journals sent out each week causes such a feeling of elation as to suggest our turning immediately to the typewriter to forward a letter to those untiring champions of the cause of the racial group, and complimenting each on the excellent showing made through their publications in the face of such great odds. From the small four page, four column publication which cannot measure up in mechanical form to some of the publications located in the country were well educated to be employed for such work, to the largest and best edited papers sent out, we glance over each as thoroughly as is possible in the time allotted for such and conclude that each one is due great credit for rendering of wonderful service to humanity. The thought is ever in our mind of the great service that the pioneers of the race's Fourth Estate rendered and further, a realization of just what little would have been accomplished had it not been for those far-sighted and earnest journalists the like of William H. Steward, of The Louisville, Ky., American Baptist; T. Thomas Fortune, now of The New York Negro World; Harry T. Thomas, of the Old Gazzette, who are yet active and greatly admired because of the great service they are rendering as journalists, and the great work accomplished during his lifetime by the inimitable John H. Murphy, founder of the Baltimore Afro-American. The efforts of these are considered with a deep sense of appreciation. It is the hope of the writer that such great benefactors as Stewart, Fortune and Smith will soon come in for some great and elaborate recognition on the part of, not only the publishers of our group, but the entire race, for the service they have rendered. Whatever success has been accomplished by the race publishers, the same can be attributed to the untiring efforts of the men who paved the way—Knoxville E. Tenn. News, Webster L. Porter, editor. A Missouri K. K. K. Law. Kansas City, Mo., and Mrs. Edward Hayter, 1517 E. 10th St., married six years ago, were fined $500 each for violating this state's fool anti-inter-marriage law. te.

GARVIN OZEN WOMEN FRIENDS Over the Blast—The Garvin erly Guarded — Cannot Hands Off, Chamber! live where they please in this city. Capt. J. F. Blitzl, Lieut. Daniel O'Brien and Detective William Peters investigated the explosion. Peters found a piece of tin which indicated, he said, that some explosive had been placed in it and a fuse attached. Several bricks were found at the foundation of the garage. Garvin was attending a meeting downtown at the time of the explosion. Mrs. Garvin was entertaining a dozen women friends at a card party. She ran out and saw the men running away. Four ran west on Wade Park and two east, she said. A police guard was stationed at the house for the rest of the night. Since the local area of the N.A.A. Q.P. and Dr. Garvin and a K.K.K. warning a month ago, they should have been prepared for just such an emergency, should have kept a properly armed guard on duty, day and night. They and every one else knows that the police cannot be depended upon. The Detroit Sweets and other like cases, and that of Dr. E. A. Bailey in this city, prove that he yond all question. It is hoped the well-will act and be prepared for the future. Dr. Garvin is a veteran of the World War and no coward. He is going to live in that house and it is our people's DUTY to see that he has all the protection he may need to do so without any more such miserable experiences. EMULATING THE "SOCIAL EQUALITY" Practiced Most Largely in the South By White Men and Our Women. This Brother Gets Into Deep Trouble. New York City—Lieut. Mooney looked up in surprise as the detectives in the bureau, next door, at the 16th precinct (Harlem), last week Monday night, toppled all over themselves and all other obstacles when Edna Wallace Harper (not Hopper), a young woman, (white), rushed in, yelling murder with blood flowing from wounds in her head and face. At the same time there came a terribly violent bureaual door. Nobody seemed to know just which way to go first. Mrs. Estell Baughman failed to tell her husband, Alfonse, that she had changed jobs and secured a half time position. When she returned home unexpectedly, too early Monday of last week, and found Mrs. Edna Wallace Harper shrouded in her bed linens, a man hung over a lightly smoking, a few inches away, the bureaual began. Mrs. Baughman got both kitchen knife and a razor as she vaulted to the bath-room in her hurry. After she put the woman to flight, Baughman "joined the birds," instantly. When he "bucked" the detectives door he was being closely pushed by his wife, razor in hand. When he was running back himself in the detective bureau. They thought he was diving in somewhere, next door. Police investigated the mystery, held the Baughman family for court action, and sent Mrs. Edna Wallace Harper to the hospital. RIOT VICTIM GIVEN $100. Girard Man Agrees to Settlement. Warren, O.—Raymond Baker (white) of Girard will receive $100 for personal injuries sustained when he was attacked by rioters during the klan and anti-klan riot, Nov. 1, 1924. An agreed verdict was entered here. Tuesday, as settlement of Baker's $500 suit for damages filed against the commissioners of Trumbull county, under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Anti-Lynching law or Mob Violence act. Baker was "easy" as the law gives $500 for injury at the hands of a mob. "The Newspaper Business". New York City.—The Chicago Defender has closed its New York office for the first time in 10 years. All of the employees including Jas. L. Chestnut, have been given their releases.

Thanks! Editors Fred R. Moore of the N. Y. Age and Webster L. Porter of the Knoxville E. Tenn. News. We fear that we are hardly deserving, however. Editor Geo. W. Harris of the N. Y. News some years ago certainly set Dr. Wiley Wilson an excellent example which the latter has recently followed, securing "a Cleveland beauty", too. The Gazette sincerely regrets the passing of its long-time contemporary, The Indianapolis Freeman, which discontinued publication, last week. It's local representative, Dr. James K. Nickens, certainly rendered it valuable assistance during the past two or three years. In a communication far too long for publication, Mr. David Hawkins flays Ormond A. Forte and George A. Myers of this city for their efforts to place the blame on him for the segregation attempted in the recent "Charleston contest" which the local authorities stopped. He says he had no part in that phase of the affair, nor would he do such a thing under any circumstances. Good, Mr. Hawkins. The Gazette hopes the local ministers, who called on Director Barry relative to the recent looting of five of our churches by thieves, were thoughtful enough to take up with him the need of more and better police protection for the Cedar-Central-Scovill-Woodland Ave. district because of the miserably immoral conditions existing there. That phase is infinitely more important to our people of this community than pecuniary or other losses of churches, other organizations or individuals. --- It does not seem to make any difference how able the average southerner is his prejudice against our people can make the biggest kind of an ass of him. A case in point is presented in U. S. Senator Caraway's (Arkansas) introduction of an anti-intermarriage bill for the District of Columbia. Our people in all parts of the country should get in touch with their U. S. Senators where-ever they can and urge them to do all they can to have the malicious bill killed so dead in the committee that Gabriel's horn will not awaken it. We are heartily with our local federation of women's clubs, in their very praiseworthy effort to secure a commutation or mitigation of the death sentence meted out to that youth of seventeen years, Emanuel Ross, who (with Youngs) was recently convicted of killing Isadore Steeck, a Central Ave, Jewish store-keeper. The position in opposition of President Clayborne George of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch and the president of the local Ministerial Alliance is not tenable when Ross' tender age is taken into consideration. Fight on ladies! May success crown your efforts. Dr. Charles H. Garvin has been notified that, upon recommendation of the faculty of the school of medicine and the board of trustees of Western Reserve university, he has been appointed an assistant surgeon in the department of genito-urinary surgery of the dispensary of the school of medicine of Western Reserve university and of Lakeside hospital, for the year 1926. Yes, this is the same Dr. Garvin under whose home kluxers put a "home-made" bomb, last Saturday night, blowing out a kitchen window and four or five windows in the house, next door. President Coolidge has been appealed to by his friend, Indiana's kluxer governor, Ed. Jackson, to appoint a "Negro" follower by the name of Tidrington, register of the U.S. treasury at Washington, D. THE GEEVUM GIRLS C., to succeed one Harvey N. Speelman of Ohio who became a violent segregationist just as soon as he landed, in that prejudice-ridden capital of the nation, as an officeholder. When we knew Speelman, years ago, in this state he was anything but the kind he seems to be now, from a race-point. If Tidrington was anything else but a "Negro", Coolidge would undoubtedly oblige his kluxer friend, Gov. Ed. Jackson. The recent thirteenth annual meeting of the P. W. A. was largely attended. The principal address was made by Dr. Robert Vinson, president of Western Reserve university, who came to Cleveland, last year, from Texas. Dr. Vinson stressed the necessity of justice prevailing with individuals, nations or races, if success is sought. He also pointed out the need of civilized minds which are the guardian gems of democracy when guided by virtue. His address certainly gave the audience as genuine a surprise as it was pleasing. They, those present, hoped for but did not expect it. Dr. Vinson is apparently a bigger and broader man, intellectually, than many thought him to be. GARVIN'S HOUSE BOMBED. Thousands of dollars have been collected from our people of this community by the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., since its organization, and Afro-Americans of Cleveland have long felt that it is high time that some of this money should be used for their benefit here at home! The impression prevails that most (if not nearly all) of this money has been sent to the N. A. A. C. P. headquarters in New York City, and that "charity begins (or ought to) at home", especially when it is so sadly needed. As one of our leading professional men said to the writer, about ten days ago, this feeling is the reason why only eleven hundred dollars in cash and subscriptions, instead of $11,000 as suggested by The Gazette, were given, the Sunday of the "Sweets" meeting in this city. He also said there was a very general feeling that the officers of the national organization (in N. Y. City) were paying themselves entirely too large salaries. Be this as it may, the fact "stands out in bold relief" that little or none of the thousands of dollars our people of Cleveland have contributed to the N. A. A. C. P. local branch seems to have been used for their benefit here in Cleveland. When Dr. E. A. Bailey was so harassed by the K. K. K., the police and mayor of Shaker Heights that he was finally compelled to vacate his beautiful new home in that section of the city, he complained bitterly to the writer of the failure of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch particularly and others of our local organizations as well as individuals to give him the support he had a perfect right to expect. Blowing and bragging of intention to do, and of what has been done elsewhere, won't do in such cases as Garvin's and Bailey"'s. In case of the former three weeks' warning, at least, was given by the K. K. K. that trouble just like that of last Saturday night might be expected, and yet, Mrs. Garvin with women guests only were left in the Garvin home at night, too, to experience the shock and the scare the explosion that homemade bomb gave. There should be a guard in the Garvin home, day and night, who knows how to use a good shot-gun, and is not afraid to use it intelligently when called upon to do so in protection of that home and its inmates, and some of those thousands of dollars contributed to the local N. A. A. C. P. branch should be used to pay those guards. When the K. K. K. scoundrels know that this precaution has been taken there will be no more outrages such as that of Saturday night last at Garvin's, or any other Afro-American's home in this vicinity so protected. Your home is your castle which the law of the land upholds you in protecting in that or any other way when it is done intelligently and within the law. Come, let us have some real action from the local N. A. A. C. P. branch and not so much talk of little things done or to be done, especially those that cost nothing or next to nothing in dollars and cents as well as effort. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1926 THE USUAL RESULT! Common Pleas Judge Walter McMahon, last Friday, instructed a jury to return a verdict of not guilty in the cases of four young Jewish men charged with manslaughter in connection with the killing of Albert Morrison, (Mossey), Kent, O., in a restaurant, Nov. 13, at E 55th St. and Woodland Ave. The men set free are: Aaron Goldstein, 5811 Griswold Ave.; Larry Rubin, 3414 E. 119th St.; Sam Mobile, 6110 Woodland Ave.; and Morris Fisher, 3448 E. 123d St. These are the cases The Gazette has been warning our people of this community, for several weeks, to watch and care for properly. Instead of doing so, the N. A. A. C. P. local branch and our local federation of women's clubs "slept on their rights" with the above result. The only one who seemed to be alive and active in the effort to have Justice meted out was Atty. Louise Pridgene and she alone could not do all that was necessary to be done. When any of our people kill a Jew they are very properly made to pay the penalty because the Jewish people are "up on their toes" every minute of the time until conviction is secured, as in the cases of Ross and Young, week before last. How different when one of our people is killed by a Jew or Jews is to be seen in the finale of the Morrison (Mossey) case. The most unfortunate thing about it all is that we always faft to do our clear DUTY in such cases. Shame, O, SHAME! Blowing and bragging about what you are going to do should be stopped and a little constructive work DONE. Homo-Sexualist Slayer. Logan, W. Va.—Miss Maria Parker, 30, a teacher in the public schools, was sentenced to the penitentiary in circuit court, when she pleaded to a judge to be released. E. D.

The case against Mrs. Patti Howard, widow of the minister who was indicted for alleged conspiracy in connection with the slaying, was nolle prossed because she helped secure the confession of Miss Parker.

'SONG OF WINDS' REVEALS HIS PAST AWAY FROM HOME SIX MONTHS Victim of Lost Memory Restored to Normal State by Devoted Spouse's Piano Music. Worcester, Mass.—Music wafted tack to the empty halls of the lost memory of Charles Futzhugh McReigh, a Boston composer, the love of a devoted wife, a deserted home and anxious friends the other night. Memoryless McReigh had been wandering about the country for months. McReigh mysteriously disappeared from his home over six months ago. He returned the night of his disappearance from a musical gathering with his wife and a party of friends, shortly after midnight. The following morning he failed to come down to breakfast. For several weeks the family had no word of his whereabouts. After a while Mrs. McReigh heard that a man answering to her husband's description had come under the observation of the police of several New England cities. Detectives were appealed to and in the course of a month traced the missing man to Norwalk, Conn., and discovered that while he appeared to be in perfect health, his mind was blank as to his whole previous existence. Nothing could be done to arouse him to his past personality. The wife and family physicians were summoned, but McReigh could not be made to recollect himself. Specialists were consulted at the time and it was their judgment that he would never recover his mental balance. They suggested only one chance. If an idea, something that had been absorbing part of his life, could be brought suddenly to his mind, the reaction might accomplish that for which they hoped. McReigh came to Worcester three weeks ago and registered at the largest hotel. Each night he would sit in the mezzanine balcony intently watching the piano player, who was a fair young woman with beautiful blonde hair. He sat there continuously and silently, always with a set look of wonderment as the music was unfolded under the deft touch of the little player. The night McReigh recovered his reason was witnessed by several others who were sitting by him listening to the music. The little pianist was playing as usual mostly soft, low music that was soothing and restful, until she came to the last selection, "The Song of the Winds." As she came to the final measure, with the crash of falling trees and overturned homes, McReigh arose from his chair and staggered toward the piano, and in an instant the little player and McReigh were locked in arms' tight embrace. There were just two words spoken — "Tom" and Frances. Then the woman collapsed and McReigh had to be carried away, his face an ashy color. Both were cared for by the house doctor. It afterward developed that the little pianist was Mrs. McReigh. Acting on the advice of specialists, she had followed her memoryless husband from city to city. Being people of wealth she was able to go at any length to accomplish her purpose. McReigh was supplied with funds through the management of the different hotels at which he registered, without his knowledge, and the wife consented to pose as a musician in need of employment in order that she could be able to play in the presence of her husband. "The Song of the Winds" was McReigh's best known and favorite composition. McReigh was under the watchful eye of his wife from the time of his discovery in Norwalk. McReigh's memory was perfectly normal the following day and man and wife returned to their home in Boston with plans for a second honeymoon through the west to celebrate the glad occasion.

Rules of the order prohibit the establishment of two lodges in the same city. About two years ago, however, King Tut lodge was set up in East Cleveland. To this Cuyahoga lodge did not object. Subsequently the new lodge received several meetings in Cleveland because of the fact that its entire membership resided in this city. Cuyahoga ruled in Cleveland—and King Tut was apparently content to let the older lodge rule, but reached out and corralled men of energy and vision. Soon it had 500 members and more than $2,000 in its treasury. At the last convention of the order in Richmond, Va., King Tut lodge sent delegates with those of Cuyahoga lodge and the convention decided to have the Grand Lodge feels that the Grand Lodge comes as its guest. King Tut believes differently—and, so far, the grand exalted ruler seems to agree—that it comes as the guest of the two lodges of this district, and accordingly claims a share of the honors in preparing for the convention.

How Our Men And Women Are Insulted And Humiliated In the Government's Departments—Will the Self and Race-Respecting Negro Press of This Country Continue to Stand for This Sort of Thing? (Special to The Gazette.) Washington, D. C., Oct. 4, 1924.—There is more segregation in Washington today under President Coolidge than there has ever been since the Civil War. The beginnings of segregation were under President Park. It was greatly extended, under President Wilson; increased, still further, under President Harding; and reached its zenith under President Coolidge. For instance, the largest of our parks President Wilson never troubled, but the present administration has found time and desire to introduce it even there. Including the postmaster general, in the postoffice building. It announced dancing and a pleasant social evening with the officials for "the post office employees," yet not one was delivered to the colored clerks. I hurried a protest to the postmaster general the day before it was to come off, and he ordered the postmaster to invite the colored as well as the white. These clerks get around their colored co-workers by giving the function at a local hotel. It is inevitable that the wicked spirit of segregation would express itself in appointments assignments To many people, segregation is a Democratic scheme of insult, but such is not the case. Mr. Taft introduced it in the bureau of engraving. He segregated the canvases in this city into white restricting white people, white people, and black to black, often duplicating work as most blocks had white and black residents. And, worst of all, announced in his official capacity that Negroes should not hold office where white people complained. Segregation, then, is a Republican institution and a Democratic one. It was begun by Republicans, and to its all-embracing extent by Republican! There is far more of it in the departments, today, than at any time since the Negro first appeared, close upon the close of the Civil War. The picture requirement in the civil service, which makes it next to impossible for a colored lady or gentleman to enter the civil service, since their color is disclosed in their photograph which must accompany their papers, is tenaciously on to by our Republican President. Only last week, a color girl appeared after having received the best examination, after having been telegraphed for by the department. The photograph had failed to tell her true color, and they flatly refused to appoint her when she appeared, and they saw her complexion. Commissioner Baird of the internal revenue bureau with thousands of clerks will not appoint a Negro clerk, and his word is law there, as he has the lal favorite of Secretary Mellon and President Coolidge. He hails from North Carolina, the home of the other favorite and leader of the segregation forces, Col. Sherrill, superintendent of buildings and grounds. it is no use to complain of either of these southern gentlemen. The colored people here who know the President could destroy segregation in the departments of the government, and the photograph requirements in the civil service by the mercy nod of his head, are at a loss to understand why he does not put his splendid declarations on democracy into operation here, where it would not even cost him a single vote and where he has full power and absolutely no opposition. They wonder if he is not a firm believer in segregation, especially since segregation is one of the chief tenets of the Ku Klux Klan which has found its "welcome home" in the Republican party, and receives no condemnation from the Republican President. (Special to The Gazette.) Washington, D. C.—In the postoffice segregation is rampant. The faithful colored clerks work under constant humiliation and physical disadvantages. The department maintains a spacious cateria for whites only, where these inferior white clerks can buy appetizing luncheons and chat in comfort while eating, while the colored clerks must bring cold luncheons from home and eat them any place they can. The physical discomfort, disadvantageous as it is, is far less galling to the coured clerks than is the thought of their government taking their taxes, as it takes those of the whites, for the comfort of the latter, and setting them off as though they were the injustice. The injustice, all the more they protected that they are far more capable than the whites, and render the government more intelligent and efficient service—the white man of their attainment being able to get far more lucrative employment. The department goes even farther in its solicitude for whites and neglect of colored. It maintains a well-appointed club room with pool tables and other games, com m or t a b l e lounges and other equipment for rest, sociability, and recreation, and nothing for these same colored employees. This private club is in the magnificent postoffice building, built and maintained by ALL of the people. In the locker rooms there is segregation, and segregation attempted in the office, and all of the employees must the most dependable and faithful employees. Last year the white employees passed around invitations to the white employees, in the very presence of the colored, to attend a reception to the heads of departments. including the postmaster general, in the postoffice building. It announced dances and a pleasant social evening with the officials for "the postoffice employees," yet not one was delivered to the colored clerks. I hurried a protest to the postmaster general, the day before the commute, and invited the postmaster to invite the colored as well as the white. These clerks get around their colored co-workers by giving the function at a local hotel. It is inevitable that the wicked spirit of segregation would express itself in appointments, assignments, and salaries. Colored applicants are often passed over though their examination was superior. No Negro, however efficient or old in the service, must ever dream of a promotion to a directive position. The hard, unyielding caste passes writes over him, one after another, in which the colored employees have won contests in quickness and accuracy in the mailing mail. The colorists have dared to form a opinion which meets regularly and often sends manly and intelligent protests to the postmaster, and often appeals from his decisions to the postmaster-general. It has secured some improvement in their working conditions, but they are still bitter over the huge injustice done to them for nothing else than the color of their skin. (Special to The Gazette.) Washington, D. C.—The government printing office keeps faith with the government's universal scheme of segregation. Some of the best and brightest of our girls are forced to accept inferior positions there on account of the better and more lucrative avenues of employment being closed to them because of their color. The whites are generally of a very mediocre group, far from equaling our girls in educational equipment, culture, and working efficiency. Yet these superior girls are set off from the whites with the latter, of course, having the better working conditions, salaries and recreational facilities. There is a large cafeteria in this huge structure where all of the employees may go, but there are a few tables in an out-of-the-way section reserved for our employees. I am glad to say that few, very few, preferring a patronize the place, preferring a little physical inconvenience to the open, semi-public humiliation of segregation. In toilet facilities, dressing-rooms, and work assignments, wherever possible, the law of segregation is in full force, and, of course, this same undemocratic practice reveals itself on the salary roll and in the hard caste that bars promotion. Here, as elsewhere, the position is based on superior employees to directive positions, and higher salaries. The whites have a large recreational center in this public building with many fine appointments for rest and amusements. During lunch and dinner hours they repair to this restful retreat for sociability and dance. Last fall, a young Afro-American with a splendid record in his work, felt the injustice of this exclusion of our employees so keenly that he secured the company of a young ladie of the theater. A soon as this couple started to dance the music was abruptly stopped, and the young man reported for attempting to take part in an entertainment provided for employees. He was called to the office, lectured for being "one of those smart Negroes" who believe in "social equality," and then dismissed on a trumped-up charge. He was a night-employee, hence he carried a pistol. Right after the dance indented his hand, he was quickly accused of setting the building afire in revenge for his exclusion from the dance floor. Detectives came to the building to arrest him, and failing to secure any evidence searched him only to discover the pistol. They quickly dropped the arson charge and substituted one for carrying concealed weapons for which he was immediately dismissed. By this severe punishment the police were no way of escape for one who dares to resent the daily insults that their government (under President Coolidge) gives them. Many of the employees have expressed their deeply-wounded feelings to me at being considered a pariah by the government whose institutions they are serving so faithfully, and I have taken up a number of cases only to be met by a denial that the conditions complained of exist, and a request for the names of my informants. I knew the fate these informants would suffer. I have always been in the parishartment then taking the position that it cannot take up the case. It is perfectly clear that this iniquitous scheme of segregation is a difficult thing to fight, since the government THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. O.SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 6, 1926. is so well settled upon it, and the complainants cannot bear witness to it. (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.-Segregation in the bureau of engraving and printing has an interesting history involving President Thomas Woodrow Wilson and members of his family, three herocly young colored women who lost their positions as a result of their protest, and the noble wife of Senator Robert La Follette. Shortly after the accession of Mr. Wilson to the White House, a member of his family visited the bureau where she saw white and colored girls working together in perfect harmony, oblivious to any thought of race. Shortly thereafter came an order for segregation of the races, and a white lady who had been noted for her philanthropy among our people and who was upon intimate terms at the White House appeared at the town hall to tell our girls to be contented with the work she had great Negro leader had taught colored people to stay in their places." Three of the young ladies resisted the order to the last ditch and were summarily dismissed! Senator La Follette lodged a protest with Secretary McAdoo to no avail, and his noble wife began a crusade against the undemocratic innovation. She took the platform here in Washington and Boston before the famous Twentieth Century club. She used the columns of the Senator's magazine, sparing neither space nor vigor of utterance. She thundered against it in our local white press, and addressed the national gathering of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in New York. When our people here were so profoundly discuaged, she came out one stormy afternoon to the Y. M. C. A. to urge them to continue the fight, or to oppose what the crises, Beswald Gerris-Willard, allowed to attack White House and Cabinet and arouse our people, and the Nation Association secured publicity in over six hundred influential white papers in the country. The fight checked what was thought to be the intention of the segregates, namely, the elimination of the colored employees from the bureau ait toogether. The same segregation which some of our people think is the cherished institution of the Democratic party is still there, in all of its fullness, under the administration of the party that Abraham Lincoln, Charles Sumner and Frederick Douglass are helped to found. Our girls are employed there in far larger numbers than in any other branch of the public. They are GATED in their rest rooms, toilets, and working stations, and of course none are ever thought of for promotions to executive places. They are girls from our best nomes, most of them with high age, normal school training, and fine culture. The white girls are of no such grade, as there is no segregation for them in the great world of things. They have unlimited fields at high wage for even the youngest. The white girls must take these inferior positions, the inevitable result of segregation. Our people are still hoping for the issuance of an order destroying this iniquitous practice in all of our government departments, for it not only humiliates the best of the government servants but impairs the government service. (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.—The treasury department, according to the President's recent acceptance speech, is now under the ablest financial genius since the days of Alexander Hamilton. It is to be remembered that the great Hamilton came from the West Indies, and in that long sweep of history that the President traversed are the mighty Salmon P. Chase, secretary of the treasury in Lincoln's cabinet, who, in a national extremity such as this country has never known, devised the national banking system which financed the Civil War; and Ohio's master financier, John Sherman. These men never knew what segregation was! The present head of the department of internal revenue, Mr. Blair from North Carolina, has not appointed a colored clerk since his incumbency. While his predecessor, Mr. Daniel Roper, a Democrat from Texas, appointed and promoted several of them. Since the income tax legislation and the numberless new taxes that the recent war necessitated, he is the only member of the department of the treasury, employing several thousand clerks. Net Negroes are so scarse there that they can't be noticed. There is the same general complaint here among our clerks and other employees as there is in the other branches of the government—failure to recognize their efficiency when promotions are due; ability to go so far and far no further. The various forms of segregation exist here as well as elsewhere—the restaurants closed or divided along color lines, and special toilets, locker rooms, rest rooms, etc., set off for colored. The toilets for the colored are few in such a large structure. Hence, the segregated clerks are forced to endure physical inconvenience at times, and are forced to travel long distances when they desire the use of them. The department maintains a huge, magnificent cafeteria, in the splendid sweep of woodland along our national driveway, where white people of every class can come to rest, dine, and socialize of afternoons and evenings at minimum costs. The white press of the city is constantly telling of the thousands who take advantage of this "delightful retreat," and the festive scene that their presence creates. It seats two thousand diners with space to spare; but not one Negro! His only share is in the taxes he is forced to pay for this luxury for another group! The registship of the treasury, which Republican Presidents have given the Negro since Garfield appointed Blanch K. Bruce, is now filled by a white man, and the colored people are congregated in a separate room which is publicly proclaimed as "a colored division." When it is discovered that Negro clerks are "working as white" in other divisions, they are promptly transferred to this "colored division." Our people fear that protest against this segregation would result in the abolition of the division altogether; so they remain in a dilemma, fearing to act. Our clerks must accept segregation and be poor, with no other opportunities in this southern atmosphere, must take the former. They are depressed at the wrong, but economic stress compels endurance of it. By a single stroke of his pen, President Calvin Coolidge can stop every bit of this damnable segregation, just as he can condemn that lawless organization the Ku Klux Klan. COOLIDGE'S SEGREGATION Washington, D.C.—We wish to call attention to the fact that in the fight against the segregation of our government employees, the Treasury Department will most likely be the center of attack, for segregation in several of its bureaus has been most pronounced. This is particularly true of the office of the register of the county and internal revenue bureau. In the former, beaver board walls were maintained until recently. In the latter there have been two cases of discrimination on account of color brought to public view. The words, announcing the election of President Coolidge, were hardly cold before the effort to increase segregation in the county again at full speed. It had slowed up a little during the campaign.

"WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD"! Cleveland, O., Aug. 28th, 1925. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and, if possible smite it.

Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1834 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and with authority of law shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily incurred it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which such assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent or earl's ears from assault by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (§3 v. 162 5.) Section 1882. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched. If any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedency, then the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured, or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob.

Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lyning laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lyning laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows: USS. ed. r. representative of victim of lynching. bury by mob trying to lynch another. and costs in tax levy. a. last member of mob. nast another county. mit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came gence on the part of officials of such county, imprisoned not less than thirty days county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob (93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request or many readers of the Gazette we print below the court of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio City High School law which the editor had enclosed while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Coe of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, bar-sharer, public conveyance 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 accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the manners or manners shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good 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.

Reading Reading BOTH ARE MOST NECESSARY OF KITCHEN CABINET SUPPLIES — ONE DEPENDS ON OTHER. BRINE IS PUMPED TWENTY MILES National Museum Showe New York Soda Plant and Salt Wells in Operation. Washington, D. C.-It is a curious fact that two of the most common household essentials, salt and baking powder, are very closely related; the latter depending upon the former for it existence. In other words, without salt, or sodium chloride, as it is technically termed, we could not manufacture baking powder, sodium bicarbonate and would be sans biscuit, bread, cakes, etc. There are many and diverse uses, however, for sodium compounds other than the common use in baking; some of them being soda water, soap and soap powders, quinine, oxalic acid, starch, paint, glass, alum and in silk bleaching, cleaning and treating skins and wool, in dynamite and textiles, as well as in many chemical compounds. An especially constructed model in the older building for the National Museum at Washington, with brooks of running water, wooded hills and a well-built town, shows graphically the soda plant, the salt wells in operation, and the surrounding country of a well known soda manufacturing establishment in New York state. This interesting model in the division of mineral technology shows in reduced scale the method of obtaining salt for use in making soda from beds deep within the earth without mining, and Illustrates the conveyance of the same in the form of brine to the soda plant over 20 miles away. A narrow strip of land is shown in plan and profile, from the billy region of the Tully Lakes, south of Solvay, N. Y., to the flat country near Solvay including the outlying portions of Syracuse, N. Y. The model is unique in that it is not only topographically correct, with the elevations and depressions carefully worked out, but has the manufacturing plant, the salt wells, tanks, etc., and roads, houses and trees together with brooks and lakes of real water. The salt wells lying at a depth of 1,200 feet below the surface of the hills are shown, with the pipes which feed the tanks and reservoirs below in the town of Solvay. Sections of Lake Onondaga, and the Erie canal are also to be seen. Bearing in mind the fact that salt is soluble in water, the engineers of the concern at Solvay evolved the scheme of using the abundant supply of pure water furnished by the numerous lakes in the region of Tully, N. Y., by forcing it into the deep lying salt beds and drawing it off in the form of salt water. This was accomplished by sinking two pipes, one within the other, sending the fresh water from the lakes down the larger pipe and sucking up the salt water through the inner pipe. The salt water or brine is stored in concrete reservoirs, constructed near at hand, from where it is connected to the plant at Solvay, 21 miles away, by a pipe line, and may be drawn off as desired. This method of securing the salt is one of the modern devices employed by man to overcome the great defenses of nature against his attack, and saves much labor and expense, for the salt is obtained directly in the form required for the process. The process used here for making baking soda with ammonia is known as the Solvay process, invented in 1863 by Ernest Solvay of Brussels. The many complicated chemical operations necessary in this system of man.ufacturer will be but briefly mentioned. Three principal ingredients are used—salt, which is obtained in solution from the salt beds; ammonia, which is secured as a byproduct from the coke ovens operated both for the coke and gases, among which is the ammonia, and lime, which is obtained by burning limestone secured from Jamesville, a near-by town. In simplest terms, this process consists of treating the brine solution with ammonia obtained from the coke ovens. When thoroughly saturated with ammonia gas, the brine is forced under pressure into tanks containing carbon dioxide, which in turn is obtained when limestone is converted into lime. The resultant products obtained from these reactions are bicarbonate of soda, and ammonia chloride. By a further treatment the carbon dioxide is liberated and used over again, while any ammonia given off is condensed and returned to the tanks. The sodium bicarbonate thus formed is heated in rotary dryers and thus converted into sodium carbonate which is the soda ash of trade.
