FREE SILK HOSIERY Planes, Wines, Paris Lingerie, Food stuffs, Even Autos, Musical Goods, Clothing, Etc. Washington, D. C.—After the natives (colored) of Watling Island, Bahamas, had aided in rescuing the 68 members of the crew of the British steamer "Port Kemble," which recently grounded and sank on a coral reef four miles off the island, they salvaged a large portion of the $1,500,000 cargo, consisting of clothing, automobiles, musical goods, food, and beverages, following which they held a "Thanksgiving" celebration. It is said by the survivors of the wreck, who owe their lives largely to the native rescuers, that a monkey was the only article which the natives could not seem to understand. Paris lingerie, silk hosiery, foodstuffs, wines, and even pianos were quickly seized by the natives and put into immediate use. An "ill wind" that blew some needy persons good! Mother of 25 Children Washington, D. C.-According to birth statistics for the year 1923 by the U. S. Census Bureau, there were 8,247 mothers who gave birth, exclusive of still births, to their twelfth child. But in Maryland, one Afro-American mother gave birth to her twelfth-child, while one in North Carolina and another in Virginia presented proud fathers with their twentieth-child. During the same year a foreign-born white woman in Pennsylvania gave birth to her twentieth-child and a native born white woman in Virginia gave birth to twenty-five. DR. M. W. JOHNSON HOWARD'S PRESIDENT! Full Board of Trustees Meets in Special Session—Action Unan- imous—The New President Has Exceptional Record of Preparation and Service. Washington D. C.—A special meeting of the board of trustees of Howard University was held in Carnegie library, on the campus of the university, June 30, to consider the situation created by the deciliation by Bishop John A. Gregg of the presidency of Howard, to which he was elected, June 8. A unanimous ballot was cast for Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson of Charleston, W. Va. The new president has an exceptional record of academic preparation and public service. He graduated in 1911 from Morehouse College, Atlanta, with the degree of bachelor of arts, and was retained for two years as professor of theology and history. He received the degree of bachelor of arts from the University of Chicago; graduated from the Rochester Theological Seminary in 1912; was student-secretary of the international committee of the Y. M. C. A.; became pastor of First Baptist church, Charleston. W. Va.; received the degree of bachelor of theology and history. He graduated and was its graduate scholar at Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass, where he graduated with the degree, master of the science of theology and had the graduate commencement part with the address: "The Faith of the Afro-American"; was awarded the honorary degree of doctor of divinity at a Howard University community college; and he accepted the position. The new president is married and has three children. He will be the first Afro-American to serve as president of Howard university. The Negro Schools Election of an outstanding Negro clergyman to the presidency of Howard university makes a significant break in the history of that Negro educational institution, which has been served by white presidents during the half-century of its work. He is the oldest of the Negro schools of the nation, has just elected another white leader, thus preserving the traditions of the school. Bishop John A. Gregg, with a past experience of leadership at Wilberforce university and with an immediate past of service in the then admiring Africa, the first choice of the trustees of Howard university; but as he found it necessary to decline election, the presidency was given into the hands of Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson of Charleston, W. Va., a Negro clergyman. He then Thomas Elsa Jones, just returned from seven years in educational work in Japan. This new leadership, according to an editorial in the New York Times, comes at a time when great importance is being placed upon the education of the Negro youth. The post-war period has been marked by the great migration of the Negro from the south to the north, changes which affect not only the Negro but those with whom he comes in contact. There is only the geographical change, but also the vocational shift from agriculture to industry and city life. The person who believes that the Negro is still entirely an agriculturalist and that he is fully taken care of by the institution which was established by the late Booker T. Washington, misses the significance of this move. The Negro is emerging. He needs leadership and he needs the help of the million-dollar endowment fund of Fisk university and the "many millions" which so good an authority as George Foster Peabody has prescribed for the Negro colleges of the south is reassuring the benefit that both races will have the knowledge of the leadership in these colleges which will mark the presidencies of Drs. Jones and Johnson—Earle E. Martin, editor and publisher of The Cleveland Daily Times. Belasco Says We Compel Recognition On Stage Belasco Says We Compel Recognition On Stage Great Showman's Ideas Are Changed by Invasion of Our Harlem Section and Watching Natural Reaction to Music. David Belasco, artist and showman, makes some comments in this week's Liberty magazine that many will hold are on the ragged edge of being radical in the extreme. He initiates his article with a lengthy outline of his new play, "Luba Belle." This play has a cast of 117 college persons and thirteen white players. The synopsis is too lengthy for reproduction in this column. It leads down to Belasco's personal comments, as follows: "The theater of tomorrow must reckon with a new force—the race of Ham. I say this in all sincerity out of my fifty years of labor for the American stage. The Negro, from today onward, will compete in recognition through the sheer force of his instinctive mime talent. I will go further and declare that no race, even the sorrow-swept Jew, can surpass the Negro for instinctive stage ability. I believe that another decade will see a Negro in which war was Caucasian race will witness a surprising development of this hitherto dormant nature gift." Six months ago Belasco says he thought of the Negro as "one not too well equipped for his fight for recognition. He got his insight when with Miss Lenore Ulrich and other actors he invaded the colored section of the Harlem district in New York City to watch the colony in their bedrooms of his various reactions are deeply interesting. He says that a jazzy, lively bit of music brought flashing smiles, shouts of mirth and foot pattings. A sentimental song caused an instant hush and an attitude of reverence. A waltz tune followed and before the third bar had been played, every form in the room was swaying rhythmically in time to the music. Immediately following the phenomenal and unprecedented success of "Able's Irish Rose" the query entered my mind as to how soon the white and black race would be coupled on the stage or screen, and understand I am not claiming prince of the world. Belasco, Caldwell and the producers made millions by hooking up the Gentile and Jew into a stage play and innumerable films—why should not a similar hook-up with the whites and blacks prove equally lucrative? This much we may depend upon—David Belasco has for the sake of profit never staged a trashy or mediocre play and I am sure he would not stop to tote to Lulu Belasco in order to perform a symphonic cross-section of modern conditions. There are major and minor motifs of the highbrow cabaret dancer's life—all in the center of the stage. Back of it, surrounding it, and mingling with it, are the colorful undertones of Negro community twenty-five years ago S. H. Dudley, with his trick mule, toured for many seasons with his variously-named musical comedies, all colored. One song that I recall was "Côme After Breakfast, Bring 'Long Your Lunch and Leave Bore, Supper Your Me" Cole and Johnson's hard-hit comedy with all-colored troupe, did likewise and Johnson's "Sue, Dear," one of the best popular songs ever written, was used in one of the vaudville acts at the Palace as late as last season—the name of the team escapes me. Williams and Walker toured for twenty years. a great many years. He presents a the High St. theater in Walkin' Cohen the night Williams had to go out on the stage and lead Walkin' away—they had been watching him closely as indications of paresis were manifest. The song he sang at the time was "Bon-Bon Buddle, the Chocolate Drop." He died some months later. Some of the best acts in vaudeville are the colored teams and when the finer dancer than Bill Robinson? All of the attractions I have named and many others were and still are successful because of the patronage of white people—and but a small sprinkling of their own race. After Walkin''s death, Bert Williams went into the Follies and would be there yet, probably, if he were alive—and were doing something like $5.50 to see him. The motion picture makers are a very astute lot, but in one count I think they have been fast asleep. They have not recruited a lot of good colored performers together and made pictures with them. Or if they have the films have been so good that Octavus Row Cohen and Hugh Wiley have given us some splendid stories in the magazines, built around the colored扮, and there is no rea- SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Harry Wills, Dempsey's Only Opponent, Given the Greatest Ovation Any Pugilist Has Ever Received in the Famous Old or New Madison Square Garden, New York City. Tiger Wins on Foul. Atlanta, Ga. — Tiger Flowers world's middleweight boxing champion, won the decision on a foul from Battling. McCreary of Boston on the second round of their scheduled ten-round match here Tuesday night. Flowers was fouled after a minute and a half of fighting. He was struck low and had to be carried to his corner. McCreary greatly outweighed Flowers, tipping the beam at 200 pounds. "Took $300,000 to Jack"! "Took $300,000 to Jack'": Chicago, Ill.-B. C. Clements, president of the Coliseum Athletic club and local promoter, last week Thursday posted the $250 Jack Dempsey奖金 to the terms of a contract awarded by the champion which calls for him to box Harry Wills, the only logical contender and challenger. The money was posted at the Equitable Trust & Savings bank. Clements has a signed contract with Harry and Jack for the fight which will take place about Sept. 16, next. No Dempsey-Tunney Fight. New York City.-The state athletic commission, at its meeting, Tuesday, refused to grant Jack Dempsey a license to box in New York state. Both Tunney and Dempsey appeared before the license committee of the athletic commission and approved Col John Tunney's was granted but Col John Tunney's was approved of the committee, announced that "Dempsey's application for a license was deferred pending his compliance with rules and regulations of the New York state athletic commission relative to the defense of championships." That means accept Harry Wills' challenge and fight him in the ring. Harry was called into the meeting to answer questions regarding the contract he signed, last year, to box Dempsey in the middle west under the direction of Floyd Fitzsimmons. This he did to the entire satisfactif of the committee. The Elites Finally Win Two. The Elites' huge "B" guns, Branigan and Branahan, silenced the Favorite Knit road club's bats in both games of a twin bill at Hooper field, Sunday afternoon, and when the evening shadows fell the Elites had two games in their statistics sack, 5 to 2 and 10 to 2. Branigan completely mystified the Knit batters with a tantalizing curve in the initial scramble, while Branahan served an assortment of curves, drapes floaters and speed belts in the light-cap tilt, which constantly eluded the bats of the Green aggregation, the knits of the Knits were retired via the breeze route, Branigan breezing seven and Branahan nine. Tyler, rf., got a two-baser and Milton, cf., two and a home-run in the first game, and Bonner, c., a double in the second. In this game, Zomphier, sec. b., Milton and Spearman, 1 b., got triples. The Bantamweight Premier Here! "Chick" Suggs, flashy Bedford (Mass.) bantamweight, appeared here again Thursday evening, at Taylor bowl. The premier battler, who last week Thursday night whipped one of the really great fighters of the day, Pete Sarmiento, was here under the promotion of Gingerlew (Billy Fergus whites). "Chick's" only local appearance was against Johnny Datto, whom he decisively defeated, some months ago, in eleven out of twelve rounds, only to be robbed of the decision by a rotten draw verdict. The fight, this Thursday night, was for twelve rounds to a decision, and Johnny Farr (white), was his opponent. Johnny, you know, is the prized champion, and he was awarded before the home folks when he defeated Pete Sarmiento. Suggs is one of the foremost contenders for title honors. He seeks not only the world's bantam crown but the featherweight championship as well, and he goes "mighty lak" he going to get them both, 'ere long. Datto and son in the world why the same could not be done on the screen. The colored people in the comedies are a happy, good-natured lot and burlesque themselves in their plays. Belasco or some other promoter will make the discovery in time that the Negro has talents that the requirements of burlesque And I believe and trust that the talent they will uncover will be of such grade and distinctiveness that the Negro will not feel it incumbent to simply copy the methods and mannerisms of boy's life; this is all they have to offer—Ed.

Sarmiento are Filipino fighters and good ones, too. The Wills Demonstration Twelve thousand men saw "Jack" Dempsey, champion prizefighter, come into Madison Square Garden, N. Y. City, to watch a series of glove contests, last week Thursday night. Many cheered him. Many it seems, booked into Madison Square Park, the big colored fighter, who has sought for years an opportunity to meet Dempsey in the ring, entered the huge building. The crowd went wild. He was cheered to the echo. No such demonstration was ever before seen in Madison Square Garden for any pugilist. The meaning of this bit of ring of roses evidenced by the crowd, who do like champions who dodge rivals. They have no use for a supposed world- beater that carefully avoids fighting a boxer who happens to be black. They rightly think that Dempsey would have met Wills in the ring long ago if he had not been afraid of losing his championship. Naturally a champion who is plainly in fear of any persistent challenge is an observer, in the estimation of multitudes of sport-lovers. His timidity makes his title a boke- Karr, editorial writer. The Cleveland Daily News. Dempsey Booed and Hissed! Dempsey Booed and Hissed! New York City — In Madison Square Garden, last week Thursday night, Chick Suggs, the dark flash from New Bedford, Mass., pounded an clean-cut decision over Pete Sarmento, of the game against the fighters were all part, the big kick of the night was afforded by two fighters, Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills. Dempsey came in during the fourth round of the Tremaine-Burrone bout and was greeted with about even portions of cheers and booing. He made his way to a seat in the front row. Just as Graham was being introduced for the next bout Wills, in company with his manager, Paddy Mullins, and Lew Raymond, walked through the main entrance. He was spied by some of the boys in the top tier and instantly the game epitomized poussée, a loud crowd of the summer season, some 12,000 persons, was blaze with a remarkable demonstration. Unquestionably it was the greatest creek ever received by a fighter in the new Garden or the old. Wills walked slowly toward the ring, shaking hands right and left. Finally he came to where Dempsey sat and gravely extended his hand. Dempsey rose and shook it and Wills passed on to a seat several rows back. Dempsey blushed through his coat of tan as he met his persistent enemy (and they looked uncomfortable) he sat down. Joe Humphreys was unable to quiet the fans and finally the Graham-Petrote fight was started without announcing the boxers or their weights. "It did not amount to anything," Dempsey said. "Harry merely asked me how I was and I asked him how he was. Some persons sitting back of me made some uncomplimentary remarks about me but I am used to that by now. It did not mean anything." (O. no, it didn't mean a thing.) Fearing another demonstration and a riot, Chairman of the boxing Wills or Dempsey to be introduced before the main event. Dempsey left late during the final bout and this time he was roundly booed, with no cheers to make his exit easier. — Wilbur Wood (white), in The Cleveland Daily News. WON A CORNELL SCHOLARSHIP!

Just as we predicted in The Gazette, almost weekly for the last several weeks. Tuesday's primary vote for candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor was very light. And twelve candidates in the field! It was the opportunity of a life-time for our people of Ohio to win the nomination but they failed to take advantage of it. They cast far less votes, thrust the state, proportionately than the white voters, and too many, who did work and vote, did so for men the daily papers repeatedly announced for weeks past as Ku Klux Klan endorsed candidates, because money was spent freely in behalf of those candidates. Especially is this true in the case of the candidacy of Myers Y. Cooper of Cincinnati who at this writing is announced as the successful candidate and nominee of the party for this fall. Backed by political organizations in various parts of the state which were most liberally indeed supplied with funds, for Cooper is said to be a very wealthy man backed by some of the largest corporations in the state that are seeking benefits at the hands of members of the State Utilities Commission, it is not at all surprising that he won, if the foregoing and various other rumors afloat are true even in part. Even with such support, Mr. Cooper's total vote could have been beaten by our people casting fifty thousand less than their total vote in Ohio. Three-fourths of their more than two hundred thousand votes would have nominated our candidate. Considering the large number of white votes he received and always receives, there is absolutely no question, as to the correctness of this statement. We are sorry for the loss of this exceptional opportunity. Not "sore" or discouraged "by a thousand years". Two years hence, if the Lord lets us live and the crooked political state leaders do not succeed in putting over a return to the old convention plan of nomination, which bars out all Afro-American candidates for offices of importance, we shall enter the field again as a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor of Ohio. We made this same promise to our people in 1922 and 1924. This is 1926, and we are repeating that promise in all earnestness and sincerity a third time. We do not want to close this leader without asking the few members of the race who refused to support our candidacy on the ground that they did not wish to throw away their vote, what became of the votes you cast for every other candidate except Cooper? And in November, we will ask those who voted for him what became of their votes, because the political handwriting is on the wall in letters as large as their bodies. We want to thank all in the state and out of it, of every race or class, who contributed in any way to the support of our candidacy, especially those loyal members of the race throut Ohio who worked so hard, the last few weeks, to help win a great victory for the race. There is no good reason why any one should feel discouraged. Let us start now for two years hence. The Gazette wept to press too early to be able to state our relative position in the race, because all of the reports were not in. According to the report, available at this writing, 7798 precincts of the 8634 precincts in the state place us fifth. There were twelve candidates. STARTING EARLY. Democrats in the state, in an effort to divide our support of Senator Frank B. Willis, triumphant Republican candidate for re-election to the United States senate, are already circulating a rumor among our people of the state to the effect that the Senator was not present to vote on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill when it was last up for passage. That is not true, as about everybody knows. In order to vote for that measure and the confirmation of James M. Cobb, a member of the race, who was appointed a municipal court judge of the District of Columbia by the President, Senator Willis broke engagements to speak which would have netted him hundreds of dollars. Any one still doubting the statement, to the effect that the Senator was present to vote for the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, the confirmation of Judge Cobb and on all other important measures affecting our people, can easily secure confirmation of our statement above by addressing a letter to C. A. Loeffler, an official of the U. S. senate, Washington, D. C. TREAT THEM "LIKE QUEENS"! "Negro" Seamen in England Marrying White Women and The Latter Like It—What the Wives Think and Say. New York City.—A clipping from the London, England, Spectator reports that "Negroes" employed in British merchant ships are marrying white women in British ports. The writer disclosed the fact that the women were "well satisfied with their lot". The Spectator's correspondent continues. "The writer once asked a gentle, refined woman with three children of various shades of color, all with woolly hair, how she could have brought herself to marry a black man, and what sort of future she expected for her children, and this was the answer: "They make good husbands, those men. They are so thankful to us women for marrying them that they treat us like queens. They give us plenty of money; they don't drink; they are good to the children; the pay is regular while they are away, and they always come back to us. There's many a woman with a white husband to possess off. The children? Well, there are such a lot of them now that nobody seems to think much about it; they don't mind them in the schools. They won't hurt." The writer further reports that "that, apparently, was the prevailing attitude in those South Welsh ports." $1,000 IN PRIZES!

He was arrested, that night, at Hampton, N. J., and charged with stealing an automobile. Rhinelander's Daddy Again Busy. New York City—The father of Leonard Kip Rhinelander, through his attorney, Leon R. J. Jacobs, filed Wednesday, in the Brooklyn part of the appellate division of the supreme court, an appeal from the decision to annulment of his sons' marriage to Alice Beatrice Jones Rhinelander. SEGREGATION! We are wondering if some people can NOW see why the Gazette has for many months kept standing on its fourth page its "SEGREGATION AN OUTRAGE" articles which were specially written for this paper by the most fearless, most many and loyal Afro-American nation's care in that matter and for many months was alone in its public protest to President Coolidge against the contemptable, insulting practice. Month after month it publically called upon the race press and our "national" organizations to take up the sign in front of the race paper and in many months before any of them made a move toward doing so. Now comes the National Equal Rights league and performs a duty that our people of the entire country should not be slow to recognize and give unstinted praise, particularly Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter, its secretary and president, and has been for a long time, for others of our "national" organizations and race publications to awaken to a full sense of their responsibility in the matter and give our people some aggressive action against federal segregation. We are not going to get anywhere in this country, as we are involved in privileges as concerned, until we are far more active in our own behalf. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, AUGUST 14, 1926 Additional Locals Right around the corner, south of Central Ave. and at 2308 E 55th St., Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Pool have opened a restaurant, new, neat, clean and most inviting indeed, such as Cleveland has not had for years and something our people of this community were in dire need of. They are the best of the best, Mr. Pool is muxelked as a chef, Mrs. Pool is a long-time Clevelandander, thorly efficient and a wonderful help-mate, in all branches of the business, of her husband. Their service is the very best. More, they do not over charge. Their rates are most reasonable indeed. Therefore The Gazette Pool restaurant and urge their friends and acquaintances to do likewise. This, for reasons obvious, in the light of the foregoing. The editor of The Gazette addressed a large and very enthusiastic mass meeting at Campbell (formerly East youngstown), Saturday evening. It was one of the biggest and best meetings of the campaign and our people were largely in evidence. He was given what amounted to an ovation and after the meeting was entertained with Chairman Parrish and several other friends (white), at a sumptuous dinner at the home of City Solicitor Joseph A. Julius and City Auditor John B. Rothter, City Auditor of Campbell, Campbell H. L. Parrish is a member of the race and presided over the large mass meeting most acceptably indeed. City Solicitor Julius came to Cleveland, Saturday afternoon, in his car and drove the editor to Campbell, bringing him back to Cleveland, early Sunday morning. A wonderful drive, at from 45 to 60 miles an hour. "Going some, eh?" IS IT ANY USE TO CONTEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 900 thousand attacks, discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature not white." We have no 'guts.' The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy or the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and empowerment of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve a contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian.

COOLIDGE PERMITS IT! 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? Washington, D. C., (Special). - 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 Tuft. 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. 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 census-takers in this city white people, and the district white people, and black to black, often duplicating work as most blocks had white and black residents. And, worst of all, an announced in his official capacity that Negroes shall not hold office where white people complained. Segregation, then, is a Republican institution and now a Democratic one, and carried on to its all-embracing extent by Republicans! 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 held by our Republican Presidency. Only last week, a colored girl appeared after having passed best examination, 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 Blair of the internal revenue bureau with thousands of clerks will not appoint a Negro clerk, and his word is law there, as he is the special favorite of Secretary Mellon and President Coolidge. North Carolina, the home of the secretary and leader of the segregation forces, Col. Sherrill, superintendent of buildings and grounds, 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 mere nod of his head, are at a loss to understand why he does not put his splendid declarations on his lips 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 Constitution and its "welcome home" in the Republican party, and receives no condemnation from the Republican President. (Special to The Gazette.) (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.—In the postoffive segregation is rampant. The faithful colored clerks work under constant humiliation and abuse in disaffective towns. To a department contains a spacious caferta 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 cooled 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 leopers. The injustice stamps all the taxes when they refuted that they are far 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 whives and neglect of colored. It maintains a well-appointed club room with pool tables and other games, comfortable lounge 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 is even attempted in the toilets. All of this is against 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 re- ception to the heads of departments, including the postmaster general, in the postoffice building. It announced dancing 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 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, 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. An unyielding caste passes whites over him, one after another, though many of the colored employees have won contests in quickness and accuracy in handling of mail. The colored clerks have dared to form a union 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 but the employees there are few tables in an out-of-the-way section reserved for our employees. I am glad to say that few, very few, of our people 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 in the salary roll and in the hard taste that bars promotions. Here, the law of segregation ensures that pass over our 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 his work, that he is the owner of this that he secured the company of a young lady of the race to take part in the dance. As 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 then dismiss a social attitude and then dismiss a laid-up charge. He was a night-employee, hence he carried a pistol. Right after the dance incident a fire broke out in the office. 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 to secure any evidence searched him only to discover the pistol. They quickly dropped the arson charge and contained one or carrying dead weapons in the building, immediately dismissed. By this severe punishment our employees are taught that there is 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 dental that the conditions complained of exist, and a request for care. I know the fate these informants would suffer so I have never given a single name!! The department then taking the position that it cannot take up the case. It is perfectly clear that this iniquitous THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, AUGUST 14, 1926. scheme of segregation is a difficult thing to fight, since the government is so well settled upon it, and the complainants cannot bear witness (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 heroic 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 her family who visited 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 bureau to tell our girls to be great. 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 discouraged, she came out one stormy afternoon to the Y. M. C. A. to urge them to continue the fight, for democracy was at the crises. Oswald Garrison Villard came to town to attack Whitley and 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 segregators, namely, the elimination of the colored employees from the bureau altogether. 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 'brahman Lincoln, Charles Summer and Frederick Douglass are helped to found. Our girls are employed there in far larger numbers than in any other branch of the public service. THEY ARE SEGREAT leaders that teach the children 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 and 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 mediocre talents. The best of our girls must take these inferior positions, the inevitable result of segregation. Our people are still better than we are in order destroying this inquisitive 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 War of Independence was fought in 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, deviced the nation's treasury. He was 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, this firm has largely employed the taxuary force several thousand clerks. Yet Negroes are so scarce 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 no farther. 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 toilers for the colored are few in such a large structure. Hence the segregated clerks are not permitted to enforceience 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 drive. way, 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 at the same time. Negret! His only share is in the taxes he is forced to pay for this luxury for another group! The registrieship 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 being 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 treasury and the 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 bureau was on again at full speed. It had slowed up a little during the campaign. Investigation of Burcans Internal Revenue Internal Revenue Bureau—a segregated section of 7 employees. Office of the Treasurer of the United States—a segregated section of 4 employees. War Department. Transportation Division—a segregated section of 5 employees. P. O. Separate Lunch Room Post Office Department—a segregated lunch room. 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 domination than any other sort of error in the world." —H. G. Wells "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 possibly punish You and I. Frequently, during the forty-two years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but when you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.)

Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows.

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 of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smitha Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public convenience by land or water, theater or amusement and amusement, denies to a citizen except for reasons applicable to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be denied not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than hundred dollars to the person aggrieved in such case, recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. 一 This law has repeatedly been been constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble to our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the treaty bill, a few years ago, the Akzai editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant former presiding judge When Life wo Our leave it is sorrow of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Oxford, O. Editor The Gazette, Cleveland, O. M. Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of the city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Reporter of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal, had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO PROACH, nor is it under in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very truly yours. R. C. Grant.
