Merry Christmas to All! Atty. Harold Gassaway surprised his parents and friends, recently, by returning from Columbus with a bride, formerly Miss Susie Stokes, a teacher in the C. N. & I. (State) Department of Village Oxford University. Mrs. Gassaway is one of the most young ladies to locate in Cleveland in recent years. Our Federation of Women's clubs and Women's council ought to do something to help place our young men and women in many of the stores of the 11th and 22nd ward, making one in their employ in spite of the fact that from ninety to one hundred per cent of their patronage is furnished by our people. The Wilberforce college cage quintet demonstrated their basket-looping abilities, Monday evening, against our local Elks pro basketball team at the Elks' hall. An undefeated record received their own ownership by the Elks, was menaced by the fast stepping college team which lost the contest by the score of 48 to 41. It was one/ of the best games, thus far this season. The following are the officers of Cuyahoga Lodge, Elks, recently elected; Chas S. Smith, exalted ruler; Wm R. Green, E. L. K.; James Rodgers, E. L. K.; Steve Jackson, E. L. K.; John Green, sec.; Marcellous Early, asst.; Raymond Carr, Esquire; W. E. Wellers, Inner Guard; Frank Jackson, Tyler. Trustees, Steve Ball, Jake Reed, John Madison, A. E. Wynne and Wm. Gray. King Tut lodge, Elks, is in excellent condition from every viewpoint. its members say. Its recent election of officers resulted as follows; James F. Greene, exalted ruler; Wm B. Saunders, E. L. K.; A. L. Bernard, sec.; R. H. McKee, treas. New officers; Gus Maxon, E. L. K.; Wm A. French, Jr. E. L. K.; J. Crawley, Esq. Wm; Smith, inner guard; J. Royal, tyler; M. Yarbrough, E. J.; Bassel Pelham, and Charles Gordon, trustees. Additional Christmas and New Year's greetings have been received by the editor of The Gazzette from The Riehl Briggs Co. city, which has a very serviceable desk calendar; Miss Helen Walker of Cincinnati; Mr. and Mrs. Paul Apple and son, Arnold; Mme A'Lella Walker, president of The Mme C.

Some years ago she and her family moved to Cleveland. The remains were brought here. Funeral, Tuesday afternoon at the A. M. E. church.—Miss Virginaine Paxton of Detroit is here to spend the holidays with her father.—Oliver Young and Andrew Johnson are still quite ill. WILDERFORCE—The flurry over the recent threatened "Chicago" investigation has subsided. The attack was clearly directed at Bishop Joshua H. Jones, who is ill with pneumonia, and his son, President Gilbert Jones' management of the university. Supt. R. C. Bundy of the C. N. & I. (sta.) department of the university, who was struck at by the same belligerents from the "Windy City", does no care for worry as a result of their extravagant and unsupported statements.—The university grid team had a very successful season, this year, coming thru second best, the Howard university (Washington, D. C.) team being first. Out of eight games played, three of which were major games; one major and one minor game were lost. The latter, lost to Lincoln University, of ferson City, Mo., was played at St. Louis Oct. 2, and it could not have been because of lack of practice. It is not regarded as a regular contest. Howard won the major game by a score of 7 to 0. Any team that could hold the 1926 Howard team to seven points is a team worth while. Wilberforce and Atlanta University teams are the only ones that did this, the past season. Dr. Hamilton F. Biggar, personal physician and close friend of John D. Rockefeller, Sr., who died, recently, left Mrs. Marie Taylor Brown, E. 80th St., $5,000 and $50 a month for the remainder of her life, it is said. She was in his employ for more than thirty years. To our Old Folk's home, he gave the net income from $10,000 which is to go to Wilberforce University in case the home goes out of existence. Mrs. Leland D. French entertained the Inner Circle club, last week Tuesday afternoon. Officers elected were: Mrs. Zoe Hunt, pres.; Mrs. Agnes French, vice-pres.; Mrs. Alma Stewart, sec.; Mrs. Daisy Marshall, treas.; Mrs. Irene Dillard, reporter. Mrs. French proved a splended hostess, serving an elaborate luncheon. The first club prize was won by Mrs. Margaret Johnson the second; Mrs. Alma Stewart. Mrs. Pearl Hines won the guest prize. The table was beautifully decorated with flowers. The Christmas party was held at Mrs. Zoe Hunt's. Miss Louise, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Cook of Washington, D. C., will wed, Monday evening, a member of the faculty of Dunbar High school, that city. She is also a teacher in our schools of the nation's capital. Her father, when a lad, was a resident of this city for years. He is a nephew of Miss "Mickie" Cook, head of the normal (state) department of Wibermore force University, and a brother of Will Marion Cook, the musician. Miss Louise is a graduate of Radcliffe College, Massachusetts, and a fine young lady. The Delicatte Co. was saved from a judgment in municipal court, last week, in a case, under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio civil rights law, Gillespie's being refused service, the restaurant, on the square, it had been transferred to the name of the manager, Isadore B. Cohen wife. The manager was found guilty and sentenced, in police court, prior to the above-mentioned suit. Gillespie announced that he would immediately file another civil action against the Cohen who is revealed as the real owner. Gillespie was assisted by Atty. Wm. R. Green. Mary B. Talbert temple erected the following officers, recently: Mrs. Lena G. Brown, Dt. Ruler; Mrs. Nettie Bernard, vice; Mrs. Flavia Allabury, assist; Mrs. Luhu Brown, chaplain; escort.

Mrs. Katherine Duflap; OUR SHOW-PEOPLE ABROAD London, Paris and Berlin Theatres Feature Afro-American Acts— French Stars Presented In Mixed Cast Revue at Champs-Elysées Music Hall. Paris, France. — Afro-American artists are receiving an extremely cordial welcome in the foreign amusement centers of London, Paris and Berlin where they are to be found as the featured attractions in many of the largest theatres. In London Florence Mills' "Black- birds" Revue continues to draw at the London Pavilion where the Prince of Wales recently witnessed his fourth performance of this fast stepping attraction. In Paris, at the Champs-Elysées Music Hall, the featured number is a tabloid rave by Henri Falk and Jean Wiener, entitled "Olive at the Home of the Negroes." Besides several noted French stars, the cast contains Jesse Crawford, Allegretti Anderson, Joe Alex, the colored dancer and a race troupe with Vance Lowry and his Jazz Kings. In musical circles Leslie Hutchinson, the Afro-American pianist who has play- ed in practiced in every capital of Europe during the past two years, recently gave a recital that attrac- ted favorable attention. In Berlin, Louis Douglass is at the Grosse Schaupielhaus; the team of Mutt and Jeff are at the Barberina, while at the Wintergarden, Greenlee and Drayton who came over with the "Chocolate Kiddies" under the management of Dr. Leonidoff (Russian), are domiciled for the month as the feature attraction. In German Films. Josephine Baker, who was with the "Revue Negro" is now engaged in motion picture work in Berlin. At The Theatre Des Westens in Berlin, Ruth Bayton, formerly of the Polish bergers in Paris, serving a three months contract as the only colored performer in the cast. "THE FOREMOST AUTHORITY" Is William Stanley Braithwaite, a Member of the Face—Two Thems Columbus, O.—In poetry circles the annual publication of William Stanley Braithwaite's Anthology of magazine verse takes on a decidedly portentous hue, since his selection of a new poet usually foretells fame and fortune for the poet so favored, Mr. Braithwaite is recognized as one of the most American verse, and he has established his ability for selecting talent along this line. Thus, it is a signal event for him to have chosen Miss Dorothy E. Reid, (white), of this city to include in the 1926 Anthology which has just been published. He has been extremely generous in his hard work, too. One of Columbus's book, too, included the Anthology, *Marjorie Meeker*, (white), daughter of Claude Meeker, the well known marjorie. Another Bank Failure. Greenville, S. C.—The Bank of Commerce recently closed its doors here and quite a number of our depositors lost their life-savings. It is hoped that the bank will again open its doors and the many depositors be reimbursed. gate-keeper, Mrs. Julia Watson; trustee, 3 years, Mrs. Katie Lazleur. The other two, Mrs. Cornelia Davis and Mrs. Mary McKee, Mrs. Nellie Green, Mrs. Carrie Lowry and Mrs. Mary Jordon were recommended for P. D. R. degrees. It has been many years since an "Uncle Tom's Cabin" show played in Cleveland. However, beginning, Sunday, a company that has been trouping this show for thirty years will be engaged at the Metropolitan theater, Euclid Ave. at E. 55th St. This ever popular show is to be presented by the original Mason Brothers' production, with twenty-two people and a band, three bloodhounds and a carload of scenery. Among the many very pretty Christmas and new years cards received by the editor of The Gazette, this week, are those from Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Jelliffe, Mrs. Lenora Craig, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Taylor of this city; Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Grant of Pleasantville, N. J. former residents of Cleveland; The Supreme Life & Casualty Co. Columbus; Mrs. Warren E. Warrant, Detroit, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence J. Brown of Blanchester and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Brooks of Fowler, Colo. Thanks, friends, for the very kind remembrances. According to an article in the Victory Magazine, J. E. Hubbard, manager of the Cleveland district, has made an excellent start in this section, securing $20,000 worth of business during his first month's operation. The Cleveland district ranks third now in business. The Victory Life Insurance Co., 300 South State St., Chicago, adorned in "The Old Reliable" Gazette. This undoubtedly accounts in a large measure for the plenied showing Hubbard has made here. It is a race enterprise that is entitled to our patronage from every window. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS TO HOLD A RACE IN SERVITUDE An Appeal for Justice and Right That the U. S. Congress Should Heed—Miserable Inequality in the Director of the Budget's School Estimates. Washington, D. C.—The following, from our "Little Napoleon" (Naval H. Thomas), in this "neck of the woods", is self-explanatory: Hon. Martin B. Madden, House of Representatives, Washington, D. C. My dear Mr. Madden: The estimates of the director of the budget now before your honorable body contain such pronounced discrimination against our colored schools that the N. A. A. C. P. is forced to ask relief from Congress. In the allotments for new buildings and grounds my people are given but $525,000 out of a total of $3,750,000. In addition we are to get two small parcels of play space for graded schools for which no sums are named. In the aggregate the colored schools, already far behind the white in physical equipment due to accumulated shortages in appropriations, will receive but 15 per cent for next year when we are nearly one-third of the school population and attendance. The long-neglected "Negro" system stands to lose some four hundred thousands of dollars for next year if these estimates are allowed to stand. committed; namely the insightly huts around our Armstrong Technical High school which give it no play-space at all, and the purchase of additional land for Dunbar High school and the erection of a stadium thereon. All of our white high schools begin with facilities in every detail which our colored schools have not acquired through years of appeal and proof of their need. All of them have stadiums, tennis courts, running tracks and placement within reach of their constituencies without the added educational cost of car-fare. While the colored high schools have none of these tremendous advantages. There are many projects needed in the graded schools and in our colored normal school with an enrollment larger than that of the white, which could more than absorb the $400,000 which the estimates deny us. Modern education, though it increasingly stresses the need of physical education, yet we are denied the equipment of such training. You have come to our aid on many other occasions, and we are sure of your prompt response to the are numberless needs in colored system, many of them to the system. THAT AIKEN S. C. MOB CONDEMNED! Editor The Cleveland News:—Your correspondent who signs herself "A Daughter of South Carolina", and urges that the south be left to itself in handling lynchings, with particular regard to the mob murder of a colored woman and two men in Alken, S. C., is apparently not in full possession of the facts. The facts are that John G. Richards, governor-elect of South Carolina, has publicly commended the newspapers and the outside agencies working for conviction of the Alken mob murderers. Furthermore, a majority of the best citizens in the Alken region needs every bit of moral encouragement and publicity possible to strengthen their hands against the contempt for law and the sanctity of human life displayed by the local thugs and bullies. The N. A. A. C. P., through its assistant secretary, Walter White, was first to investigate the Aiken outrage. Mr. White's findings have been abundantly and conclusively corroborated in the series of articles published in the New York World. Both investigations indicate that officers of the law conspired to deliver to the mob one colored man who had been declared innocent by the court, and one colored woman and one man for whom new trials had been ordered by the highest court of the state. These prisoners were brutally murdered, despite the plain pronouncement of the Carolina courts of law. There was no violation of crimes "cowardly, beauty, and indefensible", since one of the mob victims had been declared innocent, and the probability is that the other two, one of them a woman, would also have been declared innocent. Under the circumstances the more publicity and editorial pressure brought to bear on this and similar outrages, the more strength and encouragement will be given to those citizens north and south who are fighting not only for the sanctity of the law, but for its equal administration regardless of the race or color of people charged with offence. These can be no question here either of "race war" or "race equality". What is at stake is human decency, respect for the law itself, and in the final analysis, orderly government as against mob anarchy. JAMES WELDON JOHNSON. Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. THE ROLAND HAYES CONCERT The Local Manager, Miss Kathryn Pickard, Make a timely and True Statement. To the many admirers of Roland Hayes, I want to say we are very fortunate in being able to hear him in Cleveland, this season, as almost every small city near Cleveland has asked his manager for a concert and been refused as Mr. Hayes is booked for every possible date for the entire season. Also, several local organizations have requested a Hayes concert, with the possibility come. As a result, we will have a full house, from where all the surroundings cities and towns and I advise early selection of seats. Signed, Kathryn Pickard. Local Manager to Mr. Hayes.

Rubber Growing Prospects in Africa Discussed By Harvey S. Riverwood London, England.—The American rubber empire in Liberia, in which Harvey S. Firestone of Akron, Ohio, U. S. A., president of the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., will figure in Central Africa, promises to be a great power in the rubber industry of the world. After leasing for nine years the tract, comprising a twentieth of the entire area of Liberia, Harvey S. Firestone, Jr., returned to London, last week, from Monrovia, where he spent three months. Mr. Firestone hopes to eventually break the British rubber monopoly, and declares the successful demonstration of the Liberian scheme will draw enough capital from other tire manufacturers to grow sufficient rubber under American control to ere long-term profits. The British East Indian production. "Already we have 20 per cent of the output," he said. "If we can develop 15 to 20 per cent more, we will be in a position to stabilize prices in the operational government regulations. Our operations in Liberia are progressing satisfactorily, with the work of opening up the jungle advancing, and planting has been started in several areas. We are confident in ensuring sufficient labor. My observations during my three months' stay point conclusively to the successful outcome of the rubber development in Liberia." "ABRAHAM'S BOSOM". A Play Written by a Prize-Winning Author Author of N. Y. City by Our Actors. New York City—The Provincetown Playhouse, 133 McDougal St., will have as its next production, "Abraham's Bosom," a play by Paul Green, with a cast of our actors, including the well-known singer, Julius Bledsoe; Rose McClendon who played successfully in the jazz opera, "Deep River"; Bill Well, who has been featured frequently on the Broadway; Frank Wilson, who played in Eugenel O'Neill's "Al God's Chillun Got Winge"; and a supporting cast which includes H. Ben James, Smith Dummore, Thomas Mosher, Melvin and Stanley Greene, Armithine Lattimer and R. S. Huey. The play is directed by Jasper Deer, with settings by the well-known stage designer, Cleon Throckmorton. The play opens, Dec. 28, and it will be the second in the Provincetown theater season.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1926 The honor paid Ex-U. S. Senator Theodore E. Burton, now a member of the U. S. House of Representatives, last and this week, by that body and leading citizens of Cleveland, on the occasion of his seventy-fifth birthday, is thoroly deserved. Mr. Burton has had nearly a half-century of public service and "made good beyond the shadow of a doubt". He has really been a telling asset in the progress of this city and country through the more than forty years of his service to the American people and has a record of being as clean "as a hound's tooth". Congratulations! "Senator". --- The 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the U. S. Constitution are far more important to the future life and well-being of this country than the prohibition amendment to the fundamental law of the land. Their gross violation for many years by nearly one-half of the country, the South, apparently does not interest President Calvin Coolidge near as much as the violation of the prohibition amendment. His recent message to Congress practically proves this. If he again stands as a candidate for the Presidency, the sensible members of the race should remember this and his steadfast refusal to put an end to racial segregation in the departments at Washington, D. C. and elsewhere in the government service and institutions. THE LATEST BASE-BALL SCANDAL. Tris Speaker, manager of the Cleveland American League baseball team in 1919, is a Texan. Ty Cobb, manager of the Detroit team in the same league the same year, is a Georgian. Speaker's team was in second place in the League's standing, that year, and Cobb's team lacked one game of being in the third place. The two teams were playing in Detroit. If the Cleveland team won the game, the New York "Yankees", a NORTHERN team, would land in third place and get the world-series money for that position which the Detroit team coveted. Remembering that Speaker and Cobb are both SOUTHERNERS, draw your own conclusions. One thing more, Judge Kenesaw Landis of Chicago is an eminent jurist, noted particularly also for his honesty and stiffness of backbone, a man who would never have given to the public the facts in the base-ball scandal, that is now agitating the country, unless he was fully and completely justified in so doing by the evidence in the cases of Cobb, Speaker, Wood and Leonard. So do not absorb readily the great amount of froth sport-writers of Cleveland, Detroit and many other newspapers of the country are flooding their publications with, these days. REPRESENTATION WE NEED. Last week Principal Frank P. Whitney of Collinwood school had to apologize to the board of education for making the following statement: "That if other races attempted to make racial issues of everything affecting one of their members, the Klan was an inevitable phenomenon." Prof. Whitney also said to the board, "I abhor the Klan and all its works, and I abhor clanish race consciousness, which was in the police prosecutor's office surrounded by men and women who wanted to the padding of Aldino Frattiano, age 13, by one of our teachers, a racial issue. My statement was rather illadvised, I must confess. The provocation, however, was great. There is no discrimination at Collinwood school against the children of any race or creed. Our most honored students include chil- dren of many races." All of the foregoing was the result of the activity of Alfred A Benesch, a member of the board, who previous to its meeting (referred to above) had conferred with Principal Whitney in his (Benesch's) office relative to the objectionable statement. As all now know the special objects of K. K. K. attacks are the Jewish, Catholic, Afro-American and foreign-born citizens. Mr. Benesch is identified with the Jewish race, we are told, and certainly (whether he is or is not) should be complimented for the results of his activity in the Whitney matter. The lesson our people should learn from this incident, however, is the importance of being represented directly in the membership of the board of education of this city. We are forty thousand in number here in Cleveland and thousands of our children are students of the local "mixed" schools which have about seventy-five Afro-American teachers, all women. They need such representation, particularly, and it is high time we were showing far more interest in the matter of securing it. MRS. LETHIA FLEMING BEING INVESTIGATED! Counter charges of disorderly behavior against Democrats will probably be made in defense of Mrs. Lethia C. Fleming, wife of Councilman Tom Fleming, when the election board calls in witnesses, this week, in the investigation of impaired voting in the 2012 halloting. This word drifted out from Republican leaders, Tuesday. It was indicated that Republican precinct officials would state that Democrats violated election laws. Mrs. Fleming sat through the opening hearing, Tuesday morning, but made little comment, except to offer aid in locating eleventh ward registrants who could not be found. A. J. Hirstin, clerk, and chairman of the Republican county executive committee in the seat of the Democratic "vigilance committee", headed by Carl D. Frielobin, in which Mrs. Fleming is credited with saying, "Any colored voter who would vote the Democratic ticket is a dog", as she sat at the table. the meeting. "I meant as a race." The report also told of voters in the eleventh ward turning to election officers and asking, "Who's our boy for governor?" "Who does Tom want for these judges?" "What did downtown say about these bonds?" Another passage was that in which Mrs. Fleming is alleged to have said, "So you're one of those who think they can get liquor by voting for Donahey and Pomerene?" and "We can't kick if he votes for some Democrat like Zangerle." PURCHASES A $30,000 HOME. Los Angeles, Calif.—A. L. Andrews, age 62, and wife, of Houston, Texas, who arrived, recently, has purchased a $30,000 home (paying cash) in this city's most exclusive residential section. Mr. Andrews is a McAdoo, secretary of the treasury under President Wilson, whose daughter he married. The house has 10 rooms and the lot is 138 by 150 ft., containing spacious lawns, fine shrubbery and flowers, many of which were planted by Mr. Andrews at an additional cost of $10,000. He will certainly be joined by their son and family of seven children. As yet, no objections have been raised to the new residents of the exclusive West Adams district. Onest Conley in The Cast. Los Angeles, Calif.—Siggard Russell, director general of the Los Angeles Pot Boiler Art Theatre, is again using Onest Conely, 20 year old son of Madame Sulie-Te-Wan, motion-picture actress, in one of his big productions. "Processional" is the play and talented Conley has a part that runs thru the entire production. He is well-known for his dancing as the "witch doctor" "The Emperor Jones" and his excellent work in motion pictures at the Hollywood studios. One of Lincoln's "Right Bowers". New York City.—The oldest of Wall Street's financiers, John Aikman Stewart, age 104, friend of presidents and assistant secretary of the treasury when Lincoln was president, died at his New York home, last week. During the War of the Rebellion, Mr. Stewart was one of Lincoln's most trusted financial advisers. Pershing's Orderly Gets Life. Birmingham, Ala.—The state board of pardons on Tuesday unanimously recommended that the death sentence given to John Umbles, Afro-American, former personal orderly to Gen. Pershing, be commuted to life imprisonment. Umbles killed his wife and sister-in-law. THE GEEVUM GIRLS TWO BIG SHOWS IS COOPER'S REVUE THE DANCE OF THE DAY Ever since Jimmie Cooper made his first appearance as a producer in Columbia burlesque, success has crowned his efforts to give a good show; to equip his stage with expensive scenery and to elaborately costume his principal girls and chorus ensembles.
