A Credit Service That Suits Your Convenience THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1926. OUR FLAG AND ITS SYMBOLISM. Hailing from the South-land, last Monday, Aug. 9, I was delighted to see and be in my adopted state, Ohio, again, where I can breathe its free air, where free speech is respected and where any man, be he black or white, yellow or what not, if he is an American citizen, may aspire to any office within the gift of the people. While in the South, in a certain city of Florida I noticed that the city was gaily decorated Dr. Horace C. Bailey. and white yanks—Negroes, Irish Jew, Italian, all. The one hundred percent K. K. K. American can not face the "Rising Tide of Colors". It is coming. The American tide of injustice is about fall. We are nearing the end of an age, a new era is about to be born. There will doubtless be a modification Congress elected, re the eighteenth amendment to our constitution. I am a prohibitionist, but there is too much darn hypocrisy in law enforcement. The fourteenth amendment with impunity while millions are spent to enforce and not enforce the eighteenth. The people of this country have lost respect for all law. We can't keep the eighteenth and break the fourteenth and fifteenth. For 250 years we made the flag lie and we are making its symbols lie to all civilizations now. To all intents and purposes, we are not free. Our group were denied all that it symbolizes and now in the southland, its symbols mean nothing with some of our intelligent manly and courageous citizens say, "All that my flag symbolizes, I am going to aspire to, from legislator up. It is our constellation of political hope and liberty." The first stripe was made crimson by Crispus Attucks. Another by our sires of 1812, and another by 2000 in 1860 during our civil strife, and still another by our San Juan Hill veterans, and another, at Carasal, Mexico, and last and nearest by four hundred thousand of France, freeing the world, and saving its civilization, even of poor old Belgium which so brutally treated and tortured our ancestors in Africa. A lot of fool, nonthinking Negroes still crise the Harry, Harry C. Smith for the unprecedented courage and manhood evidenced in aspiring to the gubernatorial seat of Ohio. Why shouldn't he? He is to the manor born and more 100% American than many holding office in our nation and state. Why should he not our youth's appetite to be? Why should he not E. Davis aspire? Why Alexander H. Martin aspire to be a judge? I left Florida, recently, a day or two ahead of my time so as to give Mr. Smith and our other local candidates a lift. I voted for all of them and will do it again, and have done it along with my other friends, Democrats and Republicans. I care very little about parties any more. The Republican party from President down doesn't see to the law being enforced when it comes to our people any more than northern Democrats. God that we would wake up his confounded stupidity and realize his confounded stupidity, especially in the north. It is his political and civil weapon to fight with. The Hon. Harry C. Smith has ever since I have known him, been an ardent fighter for our race-rights, to his political disadvantage "The Old Reliable" ever battles for our people and even against them, when necessary, in their lawlessness. We must see our people's faults and try and remedy them if we are have the respect of the people we live among. Mr. Smith could have had our people, along with his white friends, could have seen and seized the opportunity. Yes, as a citizen and a taxpayer, the flag says aspire. It is our star of hope. O! long may it wave or the land of the free and the home of the brave. It will yet make tyranny tremble in the South. We should, I shall, ever strive to keep it unsullied—by拼命 and truth from the misgardess of race, creed or color. Mr. Smith, two I am alive I shall cavass the state with you. I stopped off in Sidney O., on Aug. 8, 1926, and got two others to promise me their vote for you. (Rev.) HORACE C. BAILEY. NATIONAL PRESS ASSOCIATION MEETING Philadelphia, Pa.—After having deliberated for three days, our National Press Association adjourned in this city, Saturday noon. Chicago will entertain the association, Feb. 10, 11, 12, 1927. The annual address to the country denounces discrimination against our soldiers in certain reserve camps for the military training of American youth, the placing of our soldiers in such notoriously prejudiced communities as Fort Benning, Ga. also denounces unfair segregation and discrimination, mob and lynch law and unequal apportionment of school funds. It closes with an insistence upon "the enforcement of all the provisions of the U. S. Constitution" and a condemnation of disfranchisement. The following are the officers for the year: Benj. J. Davis of Atlanta press; Robt. J. Nelson of Washington, D. C., first vice pres; Jos. A. Bass, Los Angeles, second v. p.; Henry A. Boyd, Nashville, cor. sec.; I Willis Cole, Louisville, rec. sec.; Mrs. A. E. Tittle Nash, rec. sec.; Mrs. E. M. Eichum, Philadelphia; M. J. Chium, Chicago, field com.; J. E. Mitchell, St. Louis, chair ex. com.; Miss Jeanneette Carter Washington, D. C., auditor. Johnson Elected President New York City.—At the regular meeting, Aug. 11, of the American Fund for Public Service, known as the Garland Fund after the name of its donor, James Weldon Johnson, secretary of The N. A. A. C. P., was elected president. The Garland Fund made an initial gift of $5,000 to the Legal Defense Fund raised by the N. A. A. C. P. and further gifts of upward of $21,000 as the organization met its offers. Mr. Johnson has for several years been one of the board, administering the Garland Fund, other officers being: Clinton Golden, vice-president; Elizabeth Curley, Morris Ernst, treasurer; Lewis Gannett, assist; Robert W. Dunn, Ben Gitlow, Roger Baldwin, Norman Thomas, H. H. Broach, Frieda Kirchhew, Wm. Z. Foster and Prof. Scott Nearing, other members of the board. THANKFUL FOR GEIGER'S DEFEAT Some of Our People Supported Ku Klux Klan Candidates and Even Judge Geiger — Praise for "The Old Reliable" — Our Candidate for Governor. Springfield, O. — The recent primary election, though marked by a light vote in general and a failure of our voters in particular to appreciate their opportunity, yet has demonstrated its value as a medium through which the Afro-American voter can express his or her desire. As our candidate for the nomination for Governor, the Hon, Harry C. Smith said in the last week's issue of The Gazette, there were Negroes in Clark county, too, who worked for Ku Klux Klan candidates for office. However, there were 173 of the faithful who have not bowed the knee to Baal nor forgotten the invaluable service rendered in the fight against "jim crow" schools here by Candidate Smith and The Cleveland Gazette. The vote though small was sufficient to place Mr. Smith in the fifth place in the county, the same relative position as that in the vote of the state. C. M. Patterson, the local undertaker, running for member of the State Central Committee, received 861 votes. Atty. Sully Jaymes was named for state representative on the Democratic ticket. Thanks to the continued opposition of "The Old Reliable" Gazette, the Honorable (?) Frank W. Geiger (judge) was defeated for a nomination for judge of the Supreme Court of Ohio. It is a relief to have a judge of Geiger on the State Supreme Court, removed for a few years at least. The effort to make capital of the conduct of the successful candidates in the Race Track Case for the benefit of Geiger and Washburn evidently had little effect. While the conduct of these judges might be open to criticism, it was not any worse than that of Judge Geiger in the Fulton school-case, when he did a court case not deciding the case on its merits and thereby being responsible for all the hardships, disorder, etc., that followed. And yet, there were some Negroes in Springfield who worked for Geiger, who not openly. The result is seen in a considerable Geiger vote in our precincts. In addition to Geiger's unsavvy record as judge, his campaign manager, an attorney or former theatre house manager, pictures houses here that insult our people by maintaining "jim crow" galleries or refusing them admission altogether. Editor Smith's friends here are greatly pleased with his announcement that he will be a candidate again in 1928. A rather belated effort was made to work up interest in his candidacy in the recent primary. There is evidence that, two years from now, will find a far greater interest and a much larger vote for the Hon. Harry C. Smith owner and editor of "The Old Reliable" Cleveland Gazette, the constant defender of the rights of out people. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS For Governor of Ohio TWELVE SOUGHT THE REPUBLICAN NOMINA TION, LAST WEEK TUESDAY. The Ohio Ku Klux Klan "Rejoices"—The "Harding" and Afro-American Republicans Sharpening Their Battle-Axes—Our Candidate Fifth in Race of Twelve Candidates— The Lesson We All Must Learn— Make Sacrifices for the Race. (Special to Gazette). Columbus, O. — Although our voters of the state of Ohio, like the Republican voters of all other races or classes in the state, ought to feel heartily ashamed of the light vote cast at the primaries, last week Tuesday, we have every reason to feel proud of the standing of our candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor. There were twelve of these candidate, all white except the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, who ranked fifth in the totals, beating seven of the eleven white candidates. This is really WORLDALLY important, and we consider all of the elements entering into the contest and more particularly the "element" he continues to fight for, year after year. Each of his several candidates for state office, exclusive of that last week, cost him hundreds of dollars of his own hard-cared money. All of this for a race of our money. It is hard to believe, I know, but it is true just the same. For the fourth time in the history of our people of this state, Mr. Smith is giving our people a lesson in personal sacrifice as they the benefit of the race, indeed. I do not have never had before. Indeed, I do not recall of our people, since the history of the war of the rebellion. And it is high time Ohio Afro-Americans are showing greater appreciation by taking far more interest in his candidacy by registering and voting in much larger numbers for him. It is true—we have over 225,000 men and women in the state of Ohio who are eligible to register and vote. It is also true that Myers Y. Cooper (white), the gubernatorial nominee of the Republican party (at the primaries Aug. 19) was the vote of less than 170,000. This proves the editor's insistence and contention of the last six years, that our people here in Ohio HAVE the votes and therefore the power, "in their own hands", to nominate one of their number for a state office whenever they will register and vote in sufficiently large numbers to exercise that power. Two years hence, we should do so. Editor Smith, I am sure, will again stand for the Republican nomination for Governor at that time, "if the Lord lets him live" and we feel He will do so. From now on and until that time, our leading men and women More Than 1,300 Received College Degrees, Including Many of High Rank—Countee Cullen Graduates From Harvard. Washington, D. C.—We had more than 8,600 students enrolled, last year, in American colleges and universities, over 7,000 of this number being in our own colleges, and 1,600 in white institutions. The former conferred degrees on more than 1,000 students, 33 of whom received the degree of master of arts, 519 that of bachelor of arts, and 173 that of bachelor of science. There were 100 graduates in medicine, 72 in dentistry, 38 in pharmacy, 37 in law and 47 in theology. In addition, the big northern universities conferred degrees on about 10,000 students, 34 of whom received the degree of Ph. D., and a number were elected to membership in Phi Beta Kappa. The number graduating last year was about three times as great as that of five years ago. Among the M. A. graduates at Harvard was Countie Cullen, our young poet who last year won the Witter Bynner poetry prize in a national competition open to all college students. U. S. NEEDS THIS NOT SEGREGATION! Paris, France.—The Princess Alexanderine Cantacuzene, of Rumania, well known in America through her work in the International Council of Women, is the sponsor of a new project looking to the pacification of Europe through international diplomacy. The plan is to establish vacation colonies several places in Europe at which children from twelve to sixteen will go at vacation time to become better acquainted with children from other nations and to build up an adult society based on broad justice, comprehension and fraternity. The plan will be presented to League of Nations Genew in September by M. Palinleve, of France. IN-UNION IT IS STRONGER THE COPY FIVE CENTS ATES! nor of Ohio REPUBLICAN NOMINA- EEK TUESDAY. Rejoices"—The "Harding" republicans Sharpening Our Candidate Fifth olve Candidates— All Must Learn— s for the Race. should interest themselves in this matter with a view to crowning with success the editor's long-standing, self-sacrifice efforts for this race of ours, particularly those in the confines of the great commonwealth of Ohio. Right now, with all of our people in attendance, we very happy and very proud of his standing fifth in last week Tuesday's race, beating seven of the eleven white candidates, at least one of whom, Legislator Ross P. Buchanan of Carrollton, being one of the four Ku Klux Klan candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor. Until the official announcement, it would be impossible for the writer to inform the readers of The Gazette as to the total vote received by Editor Smith. However, at this writing, it seems that Hamilton (Cincinnati) County led in the support of our candidate, with Cuyahoga (Cleveland) County a close second, and Mahoning Youngstown, County, a close third. County, mit (Akron) County, Stark County and Montgomery (Dayton) County following, in the order named. The Ku Klux Klan members hereabouts are rejoicing over the success of their endorsed candidates for Governor, Lieutenant-Governor and several other positions named on the state Republican ticket. The party's success, this fall, is generally admitted to be very poor, with the exception of Senator Frank B. Willis who will undoubtedly be triumphantly returned to his seat in the U. S. senate. Ex-Mayor C. J. Nichols, of Marion, President Harding's home city, in his open letter of Aug. 2, 1926, to the Republican voters of Ohio, warning them not to nominate Myers Y. Cooper of Cincinnati because Harding in the memorable Republican national convention in Chicago, six years ago, and betrayed the trust that the people placed" in him, is sure to array a large number of "Harding" Republicans against the head of the ticket. The candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, James O. Mills of Columbus, is proprietor of a chain of restaurants in the state from most, if not all, of which "Negroes only" are armed, and against him thousands upon thousands of our voters! The K. K.endorsement of both candidates is of course a two-eided sword. J. FINLEY WILSON TO BE RE-ELECTED! Washington, D. C.—In a statement issued, Monday, by J. Finley Wilson, the Grand Exalted Ruler of the L. B. P. O. E. W., who is a candidate to succeed himself, Mr. Wilson had the following to say: "Yes, I am a candidate to succeed myself and my candidacy is based on my record. Never since the Elks have been organized have they been in as prosperous a condition as they are today. When I was elected in 1922 I was 16 years old and $39,165.88 of the treasury. Today we have more than 100,000 members with more than $100,000 in the treasury. In 1922 we had 225 lodges as against 708 today. That the fraternity appreciates this work is evidenced by the hearty support that has been extended to me from all parts of the world. Pledges of support have come to me from sources that have heretofore been opposed to me, and these pledges have come to me. I will be on part. My election will be on the first ballot as the personal pledges of more than 800 of the possible 1,000 delegates who will be at the convention, will indicate. As a matter of fact, at no previous Grand Lodge convention have I been in as fortunate a position. There has not been any bitterness or rancor in the present contest, and unless some develops at Cleveland, it will have the most favorable convention we have ever held. In a few days the convention will have done its work and immediately after election I shall get busy building up the order by the creation of new lodges, and rebuilding old ones. I hope within the next year to establish an Elk Shrine that will serve as a national headquarters; continue the drive against ignorance through our department of education. Failure to the creation of the Frelft will fund the creation of the order men meet with which to help the lodges buy their homes, and serve as a general financial help to our growing order. As in the past, no place will be too remote for me to go to build up Elkdom." --- The GAZETTE PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY SUBSCRIPTION RATES (in Advance) Ome Kear eee cece ene sae ae 62.00 Six Months .......0..2e.-+ 1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit ‘by postoftice money order or registered letter.

A Cincinnati friend, writing The Gazette, last week, said: "The Gar- vey people were for Sieber”, (white), a Ku Klux Klan candidate for the Republican nomination for Govern- or. And our people had a candidate in the fleld, too! “The Negro World” ot New York City, organ of The Unt- versal ‘Negro Improvement Associa- tion, supported Joseph B. Sieber of Akron with almost a page advertise- ment and, we understand, the Ohio branches of the organization took their “cue” from that. Up to this time, if there was one thing we gave that organization credit for, it was loyalty to the race, ‘This was sup- posed to be its cardinal tenet.

And moret From its efforts, many years ago, to wipe out “The Black Laws of Onto”; to enact a Civil Rights law and a Mob Violence Act or Anti- Lynching law for this state; to help defend and protect our people, not only of the state but of the entire country, and to blaze the way to wiser, better political and other ac- tion in order that something like reasonable recognition and better treatment might be secured, to its latest effort to teach our people of Ohio their great strength as a vot- ing factor of the Republican pany of this state. “The Old Reliable” Gazette has stood out in the open all ts forty-three years of life like & beacon light, fearless and un- afraid, never faltering and always determined, What it ‘has done in hundreds of other instances to help defend and encourage our people along all lines of endeavor that lead to greater and better progress is a matter of general knowledge. We refer particularly ‘to its efforts ‘against ‘inimical legislation and harmful discrimination, national, state and municipal, and in favor of all that was helpful to the race. Personal and business interests have always been subordinated by its editor to those of the race, and The Gazette's clarion call to Afro-Amer- icans, generally, in season and out, has been to accept nothing in the way of treatment that is less than that all citizens, without reference to class (race) or color, are entitled to. When it comes to our citizen- rights, here in the North, we have been and always will be, unaiter- ably opposed to any “doctrine of surrender”, or conciliatory policy, 80 insidiously preached, in this day and time, by °“jimerow Negroes” ‘and thelr fool-prejudiced white mas- ters. ‘The Gazette believes in de- manding for our people, in this sec- tion of the country at least, and in continuing to fight for, ALL that is due all American citizens, under the law.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1926 have Dwight R. Williams, who called at the office, tell him that he was fifth in the race for the Republican gubernatorial nomination. There were twelve candidates, all white but one. Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, president of Bethune-Cookman Institute, Daytona, Fla., was re-elected president of our National Association of Women's clubs, and Washington, D. C., chosen for the next biennial meet, of the Association, at its recent meeting in Oakland, Calif. Among those who will attend the Elks' national meeting in this city will be the Rev. J. Gordon McPherson of New Orleans, a well-known evangelist of the South. He will preach at Shiloh Baptist church, Sunday morning and evening, and may conduct a ten-day gospel meeting immediately following the Elks' meet. Mrs. J. E. Reed's funeral, last week, was largely attended. Mrs. Carrie Wasson of Muskogee, Okla., an anunt, was in attendance. The husband, several sisters and brothers, including Mr. Archie Cleage and Mrs. C.

Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Jones naturally are very happy, as it has been several years since Loula last visited them and his native city. Upon investigation I find that only about 3500 of our people voted at the primaries, two years ago, and less than 2,000 on Aug. 10. 26. This is alarming, when we realize that there are in the neighborhood of 15,000 potential Afro-American votes in this county. A campaign could be waged from now on, having for us the purpose of many more of our people register and vote. If everybody co-operates, I am confident this can be done.—Chester K. Gillepe, Atty.
