VICIOUS KU KLUX KLAN SENTIMENT VICIOUS KU KLUX KLAN SENTIMENT BEING USED IN AN EFFORT TO DEFEAT A NATIVE BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN. A Great Mass Meeting Endorses His Candidacy for Mayor and the Outlook Is Joseph E. Julius Will Be Triumphantly Nominated—The Editor of "The Gazette" a Speaker. (Special to The Gazette.) Campbell, O.—There is a hot fight on here between two factions of the local Republican party to nominate its candidates for city offices. The present mayor, Roy Gordon, former postmaster, has served two terms and is seeking a third one, altho he promised not to ask for it he sought, he might be nominated. His opponent, City Solicitor Joseph E. Julius, who is closing his first term of office, managed both the mayor's former campaigns so successfully that he is now managing one for himself, with a most promising outlook, indeed. A nomination in this city, former East Youngstown, is equivalent to an election owing to the small number of the moral vineyard." Last Friday night, the campaign was opened with a bang with a great "Julius" massmeeting in Hamrock Hall which was packed to the doors and windowsills, many persons being unable to at all. Approximately one-fourth of the audience was Afro-American. The speakers were Mr. Julius, other candidates for city office, and City Solicitor Clay Smith, editor of The Gazette, who had been made short of the all of the candidates made short, snappy and very satisfactory talks, particularly Michael E. Danko, candidate for city solicitor, and City Solicitor Joseph E. Julius, candidate for mayor. Their telling arguments were greeted with wonderous applause and impressed witness. When the editor of The Gazette arose to speak, he was given an ovation, the large audience arising to its feet and cheering wildly. Mr. Smith has spoken here several times in the last three or four years and is very popular with the masses of the people without reference to race, class or color. His address, much of which is given herewith, was frequently punctuated with roaring, spontaneous laughter, and close in a demonstration such as is seldom witnessed in public meetings of any kind. Mr. Smith's address, in part: Ladies and Gentlemen: Your local candidates and other speakers have kept you here so late (it was nearly 10:30 p. m.), I hesitate to start to talk to you at this hour; so will not keep you long. This great mass meeting, crowded that has, as has always been the case and that here knows thorny what that purpose is. The meeting is an outpouring of citizens of Campbell who are determined to make City Solicitor Joseph E. Julius the next mayor of this thriving, little city. Judging from what preceding speakers have said, a dangerous effort is being made in this local campaign to array citizens against citizens simply because they are not truly a try of old American stock, others are naturalized citizens, termed "foreigners," and still others are the sons and daughters of naturalized citizens. Indeed, this pernicious effort has been carried to my people of this community, and an effort is Joseph E. Julius. being made to array them against Mr. Julius' candidacy and others on his ticket because he and they, the born in this country, are sons of foreign-born parents. The fight on "foreigners", citizens of foreign birth and their sons born in this country, is a Ku Klux Klan tenet. Opposition to "Negroes", Jews, Catholics and foreign-born citizens holding office in this country is the very foundation of the Ku Klux Klan. Therefore, for my purpose, I can mobilize to array themselves on the side of the supporters of a Ku Klux Klan tenet, assisting those opposed to "foreigners", as the enemy terms these citizens, holding the office of mayor of this city or any other office, is for them to give aid and assistance to the Ku Klux Klan not only of this community but of the entire country. A very large proportion of the citizen-population of this country is of foreign birth. Many of our leading and best statesmen of years gone by, and today, were born in the country (citizen) element in Cleveland, Campbell and throughout this country has been among the best friends of my people and we should ally ourselves with them at all times in preference to assisting those, whether they be members of the Ku Klux Klan or not, who seek to promote opposition to foreignborn citizens or their sons and daughters born in this country holding public office. Do not ally yourselves with any people who would seek to promote such unnecessities and promote the progress of citizens of Campbell, or anywhere else in this country. Do not help to promote Ku Klux Klanism, the greatest hindrance to the progress of my people everywhere in this country. Joseph E. Julius was born in this country; so was M. E. Danko, candidate for city solicitor. They are among the most prominent people in Campbell or anywhere else in this country, and with their colleagues on the same ticket should receive the unanimous support of my people of this community who are not only opposed to the Ku Klux Klan but also to those who invoke Klan tenets and methods. Ku Klux Klanism is an enemy to our government, if for no other reason than to promote friction among citizens of a common country. I want my people of Campbell to understand this thoroly and govern themselves accordingly. Do not be misled by men of our class or race who for profit have allied themselves with the enemy, for any man or woman who promote Ku Klux Klanism. We must promote our race and the government. Stand by the so-called "foreigners" of this community. They are your best friends and you know it. I spoke in Campbell several times at the request of your mayor thru Mr. Julius, manager of his campaigns. I sat on a platform here and heard your mayor ask for two terms and two terms only, saying that was all he wanted. He has had them and that is one reason why I am here light speaking in the interest of Mr. Julius' candidacy. He was loyal and faithful in his support of the mayor's candidacies and has "THE WALK-IN-THE-WATER" Interesting Reminiscence of the Great Northwest Visited by Tourists and Others, Every Summer. The season for holiday cruising on the Great Lakes is comparatively short, extending over a period of not much more than 70 days; beginning in earnest when the public schools close for the summer vacation and ending in mid-September, although the lake boasts continue to run until November, according to A. A. A. Schantz, president of the Detroit & Cleveland Navigation company, operating steamboat lines between Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo and Chicago. "The educational value of a summer outing in the Land O' Lakes attracts thousands of cultured tourists to a walk the coast of the romance of the early exploration of the great northwest centers in the vast basin of the Great Lakes, which constitute the largest body of fresh water in the world," said Mr. Schantz. "Such relics of the past as the old fort at Mackinac Island and the grave of Pere Marquette in the little church at St. Ignace are visited each summer by throngs who are interested in the story of the boid explorers like Nicolet, Joliet and La Vieille, the maritime museum of the west to civilization, and the labors of Marquette and others to convert the savage Indians. "La Salle, in 1682, built the 'Griffon', the first boat that ever explored the waters of the upper lakes. The first American built boat on Lake Erie was put into commission in 1795, and the first steamboat, the Black Rock N. Y., was built at Black Rock N. Y. in 1818. The Walk-In-The-Water and the steamboats that followed her did a thriving business transporting emigrants to the West. "The passenger steamers operating on the Great Lakes, today, are the largest and best equipped ships afloat on the inland waters of the world are patronized by tourists who seek adventure and recreation during the summer months in Michigan. The broad decks of the cruisers are turned into playgrounds for the passengers, and concerts, dancing and deck games help to make these lake and river tours very enjoyable." Japanese Marrying Our Women. Los Angeles, Cal.—Inter-marriages between Japanese men and our women in this state are increasing daily due to the fact that the stringent U. S. immigration laws and the stopping of "picture bride" importations to California have resulted in a surplus of 15,000 Japanese men over the total number of Women in this state. Homes are invariably sought in our cleaner, modern homes where the two races live in harmony and in many cases intelligent, beautiful children bless these unions. been a loyal and faithful city official, as you know. He has earned the position and I believe will be given it in spite of the very questionable methods resorted to by the opposition. A man's word should be his bond. Mayor Gordon asked for two terms and was given them. Since he will not step aside at this time, the voters of the city of Campbell, MN, and the City of Montana nominate at the primaries of Joseph E. Julius. The rule of the Republican party generally is two terms in an office and no more. When Mr. Julius has served a second term, nominate and elect some one else to the place and observe the party rule which should and undoubtedly will be observed at the forthcoming primary in the case of your mayor's candidacy for a third term. In the case of the rescue of the tax-payers of this community and in many cases secured a reduction of taxes for them, he helped every renter of a room, house, store, etc. in this community, because they pay taxes whether they know it or not and are helped by every reduction of taxes. The mayor failed you in that instance. He and not Mr. Julius should have led in that effect, as the speakers who have been nominated for the position of A man who will make sacrifices for his constituents such as City Solicitor Jos. E. Julius has made for many individuals of this community during his term of office, cannot fail of nomination and surely ought not to. In closing I wish to again warn my people of the city of Campbell that the individual, white or black, who will come to you talking against the so-called foreign element of this community, American citizens, is promoting Ku Klux Klanism which is more harmful to you than any other class in this community or the day of the primary so vote as to teach them a much-needed lesson. Help to make Joseph E. Julius mayor of Campbell and in so doing promote not only your own interests but those of all of the residents of this thriving, little, industrial city. Everyone of you take out your handkerchief! If you haven't one, use your hat or fan. Now wave them as high as you can in the air and let us give Mr. Julius the Chauquaita salute. FINE! Now go out and work like "tigers" in the interest of the Julius ticket, from top to bottom and for no reason and all outchuck the percussion Ku Klux Klan opposition to "foreigners" (American citizens), "Negroes", Jews and Catholics holding public office in Campbell or any other city or town in this country. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS "SIMPLYWON'T RESTRAIN HIMSELF" SAYS WHAT HE WANTS TO ANYWHERE, EVEN ABOUT OUR PEOPLE. Being on the Unpopular Side of Most Questions Gives Him No Concern, But Apparently a Great Deal Does Darrow. of Satisfaction—Speaks the Truth Fearlessly, That man, Clarence Darrow, simply won't restrain himself. He continues to go around saying the most outrageous things, shooting witticisms, barbed with truth, at the irrational and unjust behavior of his fellow men. They are his fellow men, he admits—the worst and the best of them—and while he says that he has never expected a great deal from them he is just naturally the kind of man who will speak his mind. As a philosophic and very human person, he finds himself on the unpopular side of most questions. On the Negro question, for example, he is scandalously at odds with the Nordic propaganda tribe. He is not impressed by high-flown talk about race, but says: "I know we are all men and one too good that." He says this to a sociocentric frankness, to an audience of Negroes in Cincinnati, as reported by "The Daily Commercial Tribune" of that city. And Darrow does not claim himself to be "pure white". He expresses himself humanly not racially, in this manner: "Speaking for myself, I am not white. I am an ashen gray. Color is a matter of taste. Some like green clothes. Some like white clothes. He likes a blonde his wife is apt to be a brunette." No respect there, you see, for the color superstition which is such an important article in the American credo. Darrow is not typically American in that he regards Negroes as human beings. He would like to see the color question disappear and be seen in another subject than man fully and "man's inhumanity to man." "I wish," he says, "I might live long enough to speak to an audience of colored people on some other subject than color—but I fear I never shall." At present, the color question is one of unescapable and grievous importance. Darrow is too bold and honest a man to ignore this question, to fail in plain speaking about it. Before an audience of colored men, he was a vivid colored "white" men he, as an "ashen gray" man, describes with fine sarcasm: "White men accuse Negroes of being shiftless and lazy and when they put in a hard day's work they boast of 'working like a n—'." "Negroes are dirty—but they are not too dirty to wash clothes for white people to wear; Negro women are untidy—but they may cook the meat at the white ladies eat. "The white man makes heaven as a place where white angels smore in bed till noon, white colored angels get up when the alarm clock rings to do the celestial chores. "You are Christians—some of you—and the white man sells you a Y. M. C. A., but it's a 'jim-crow' Y. M. C. A. It won't do to put white Christians and black Christians together, for that displease the white Christians' God, although that God is supposed to have given all men their common father—Adam. "The white Christians and the black Christians both are destined to go to the same heaven—wherever is. That is something I can't understand. The Christian does not associate with the black Christian here how can you expect he will associate with him up there? The best they can do for the black Christian is to build a 'jim-crow' department in heaven:" It is funny; and it strikes me that any Christian who ponders on the possible arrangements that may be made in heaven must wobble in his faith or be upheld in it by a total absence of humor. It is true, however, that Christians do not think very definitely what the political and social customs, the racial standards and the generalities of heaven may be. Ideas about heaven are as vague as the word "heaven" itself, as vague as the identical word, "Nowhere." It is certain that a plan of heaven, actually drawn and submitted to Christians, would add greatly to the dissension among the already sadly separated Christian folds. There would be partisanship and prejudice over heavenly issues as over human issues on earth. The race problem might be solved by having an entirely separate heaven for the Negroes, or by having more likely it to be as Darrow suggest, the white angels taking their ease and the black angels doing the "celestial chores." But see what an irrepressible critic Darrow is. He respects nothing— IN-UNION IS STRENGTH COPY FIVE CENTS ARROW ESTRAIN HIMSELF" TO ANYWHERE, EVEN FOR PEOPLE. side of Most Questions Gives apparently a Great Deal arrow. is the Truth Fearlessly, that seems to him foolish. Superstition, whether of the Christian or the Nordic persuasion, looks much alike to him. He links the dogmas Clarence Darrow. of religion and the prejudices of race, irreverently exposing the folly of both.

The "Negro" who says this is not so is only trying to please some prejudiced white person or persons. That is all. --- Some twenty-five or thirty appointments (for one year) to the staffs of five local hospitals were announced by Community Fund headquarters, Saturday. Of course, there will be more and our forty-five thousand Cleveland residents properly recognized if for no other reason than for their loyal support of the Community Fund, each year. We are greatly pleased to note that at last some of our newspapers are beginning to awaken to the fact that the great majority of the so-called "news releases" received by them, almost weekly, should be consigned to the waste-basket principally because many of them are simply efforts to secure some free advertising for some individual, organization or business concern. The Gazette is not one of "our newspapers that has been imposed upon by 'news releases' from our own business concerns", or others. --- ELKS MEET IN JERSEY CITY. The warring factions of the Elks have finally compromised their differences as to the place of their annual national meeting, this year, by agreeing to hold all of its social functions in New York City and the business sessions and parade in Jersey City, N. J. Much as we would have liked to have had the Elks with us again, this year, in Cleveland, much more pleased are we over this amicable settlement of a difference that was bidding fair to split the order into two or more factions. The leaders of the organization are to be highly complimented on this very satisfactory settlement of their difference as to the place of this year's annual meeting. As we read his letter, State Senator John F. Burke, president of the Elyria "Y", did say that our boys were swimming in the pool of the Elyria "Y" before and after the sad death at Oberlin of Ted Hansbary of this city. He wrote as follows: "Colored youths are swimming here, today. They were here, last week, and that condition is not unusual." If we are in error, in our understanding of the foregoing from the Senator's letter, we trust he will set us right. In the five years we have known him, we have always found Mr. Burke a broadminded, able and honorable man; far too high-minded to stoop to mislead anyone, especially in a matter of this kind. DISFRANCHISEMENT MOST IMPORTANT. Since the ballot is the very foundation of all our rights and privileges in this country, in common with many others we feel that the National Association for the Advancement of our People should have paid far more attention than it did to the matter of disfranchisement, in its "annual address to the American people" adopted at its recent meeting in Indianapolis. Disfranchisement is by far the most important problem confronting our people of the country. It is true there are other very serious and important problems—mob violence (lynching), "jim-crow" (interstate) cars, federal and residential segregation, the South's school "system" and peonage—but none of them equal disfranchisement in importance to the race. Indeed, all of them combined do not do so. With this exception, the N. A. A. C. P.'s latest annual address is a good one. "JIM CROW" HOSPITAL, AGAIN. Cleveland, Ohio, July 13, 1927. Editor The News, City, Dear Sir: That the great majority of the Colored people of this community, which includes a majority of their leading doctors, are decidedly opposed to the establishment of the so-called Mercy Hospital for Colored people of this city, which a very few colored doctors are still trying to promote them an appeal to the public for funds, was evidenced for the third or fourth time, recently, by the doctors' failure to hold a mass meeting at Mt. Zion Cong. temple and to have success with a free dinner in the Phillis Wheatley annex. The meeting and the dinner were intended to promote the doctors' campaign for funds. Benjamin T. Johnson, director of their campaign, is a recent comer to the city from Canton and in the employ of the aforementioned colored doctors. He is asking the friends of the colored people of this city for $220,000 which should NOT be contributed because there is no public need of a colored hospital in Cleveland. If the few colored doctors must finance it themselves, as others have done in other cities, and not ask the public for funds with which to do it. The total indebtedness of the local colored churches is between $600,000 and $1,000,000. Many of them have drives on now with a view to raising funds to wipe out their indebtedness. If the public, friends of the colored people in this community, have money to contribute to assist my people, let them give it to the colored churches that sorely need it and not make the mistake of helping to promote a colored hospital to satisfy the overweening desire of a few colored doctors for jobs and publicity. They can "make their contribution to medical science" thrue the medium of a private hospital established and maintained by themselves. The colored people of this community have a church indebtedness which they are wholly unable to liquidate. Then there is that $158,000 indebtedness on the new Phillis Wheatley building which they have not as yet paid, as promised. ORGANIZE! Missouri is the same old state, as far as our people are concerned, it seems. Recently, Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Walton, who were seated upon the front porch of their home, were arrested by a Kansas City policeman because he thought she was "too light to be colored". As a result, a thousand citizens signed a petition asking his dismissal from the force. He was not discharged but transferred to another district of the city. Soon after that, a white brute beat up Miss Lillian Scott of that city because she was one of a mixed gathering that succeeded in getting into a crowded street-car. A chivalrous (?) white Missourian struck and bruised her arm while the conductor held her. The latter then said to her "they may mob you" and proceeded to put her on the car. The police arrested her. None of her assailants were arrested, of course. Missouri is one of the states of the country that has possibly the most vicious anti-intermarriage law—one that leaves the victim and our people of the state helpless when any of our women or girls are criminally assaulted by white men. It seems almost incredible, to those who do not live in a border or southern state, that such conditions obtain among citizens of a common country, but they do, and show just how thin is the veneer of the so-called civilization of a large part of this country. It should open the eyes of the thoughtful of our people everywhere to the fact that in every community, south and north, where there are any considerable number of Afro-Americans, there should be effective organizations to work in the interest of our rights and privileges as citizens.

Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, July 12. -Displaying unexpected punching power, Paulino Uczedun, Spanish heavyweight, knocked out Harry Wills, tonight, in the fourth round of a fifteen-round match, putting an abrupt end to the veteran's attempted comeback. Three rounds of cumulative time left climax when Paulino suddenly lashed out with the right hand blow to the jaw that toppled Wills. Staggering up from a count of nine, Wills went down for the second and last time from another battery of right-handers to the head. It was the first time Wills had taken the full count of ten since he was stopped a dozen years ago by Sam Langford, the former world champion, who smelled experts it to mark a definite ending to Wills' seventeen-year ring career, whose decline began last October in the same ring when he lost on a foul to Jack Sharkey. Wills and his wife have saved their money and are wealthy. Red Cross Appoints Three. Washington, D.

HOW SEGREGATION IS USED AT THE NATION'S CAPITAL TO LOWER OUR STATUS AS CITIZENS. How Much Longer Will Our Self and Race Respecting Press, Pulpit and People Submit to This Rank Injustice? 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 Taft. It was greatly extended, under President Wilson. It still further, under President Harding; and reached its zonon under President Bridge. 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 citizens in this city in the restricting white people, the restricting 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 should not hold office where white people complained. Segregation, then, is a situation and not a Democratic one. It was opposed by Democratic one, and even opposed 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 the papers, is tenaciously told to by our Republican agent. Only last week, a woman of girl appeared after he passed the best examination, and after having been telegraphed for by the department. The photograph had failed to tell her true color, and they flatly refused to appoint her when she appeared, and they saw her complexion. Commissioner Blair of the internal revenue bureau with thousands of clerks will not appoint a Negro clerk, word is law there, as the special favorite of Secretary Mellon and President Hodge. He halls from other carolina, the home of the other favorite 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 democracy into operation here, where it would not even cost him a single vote and where he has full power and absolutely no opposition. They wonder if he is not a firm believer in segregation, especially since segregation is one of the chief tenets of the Ku Klux Klan which has found its "welcome home" in the Republican party, and receives no condemnation from the Republican President. (Special to The Gazette.) Washington, D. C.—In the postfive segregation is rampant. The faithful colored clerks work under constant humiliation and physical disadvantages. The department maintains a spacious cafeteria 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, disadvantage as it is, is far less galling to the colored clerks than is the thought of their government taking their taxes, as it takes the forms of the whites, for covering of the latter, and setting them off as though they were lepers. The injustice stings all the more when they reflect that they are far more capable than the whites, and render the government more intelligent and efficient service—the white man of their attainment being able to get far more lucrative employment. The department goes even farther in its solicitude for whites and neglect of colored. It maintains a well-appointed club room with pool tables and other games, a com for t able lounges and other equipment for rest, sociability, and recreation, and nothing for these same colored employees. This private club is in the magnificent postoffice building, built and maintained by ALL of the people. In the locker rooms there is segregation, and segregation is attempted in the toilets. And 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 attest to the health departments, including the postmaster general, in the postoffice building. It announced dancing and a pleasant social event 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 two women worked in the color-colored co-workers by giving the function at a local hotel. It is inevitable that the wicked spirit of segregation would express itself in appointments, assignments, and salaries. Colored applicants are often passed over though their examination was superior. No Negro, however efficient or old in the service, must ever dream of a promotion to a directive position. The hard, unyielding caste passes whites over him, one after another, though many of the colored employees have won contests in quickness and accuracy in the postmaster's office. 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 larger pool of this age group in all the employees may go, but there are a few tables in an out-of-the-way section reserved for our employees. I am glad to say that few, very few, 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 on the salary roll and in the hard caste bars in promiscuous Here, elsewhere, the inferior, who 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 soctability and dance. Last fall, a young Afro-American with a splendid record in his work, felt the injustice of this mission of vision of the company that secured the company of 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 believe in "social equality" and then dismissed him for 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 failing to secure any evidence searched him only to discover the pistol. They quickly dropped the arson charge and substituted one for carrying concealed weapons. The company 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 denial that the conditions complained of exist, and a request for the names of my informants. I knew 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 scheme of segregation is a difficult thing to fight, since the government is so well settled upon it, and the complainants cannot bear witness to it. (Special to The (jazette) 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 rebel during the Civil War, wife of Senator Robert La Follette. Shortly after the accession of Mr. Wilson to the White House, a mem ber or his family visited the bureau where she saw white and colored girls working together in perfect harmony, oblivious to any thought of race. Shortly thereafter came an order for segregation of the races, and a white lady who had been noted for her philanthropy among our people and who was upon intimate terms at the bureau appeared at the bureau to tell our girls to be contented with the new order as "a 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! abolition of the division altogether; so they remain in a dilemma, fearing to act. Our clerks must accept segregation or elimination, and being poor, with no other opportunities in this southern atmosphere, must take the former. They are depressed at the wrong, but nepal's 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. Washington, b. C. — We wish to call 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 discuraged, 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 White House and Cabinet and arouse our people, and the Nation Association secured publicity in over six hundred influential white papers in the country. The fight checked what was thought to be the intention of the 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 Abraham Lincoln, Charles Sumner and Frederick Douglass are helped to found. Our girls are employed there in far larger numbers than in any other branch of the public service. THEY ARE SEGREGATED in their rest rooms, toilets, bathrooms, and classrooms; none are over thought of for procedures to executive places. They are girls from our best nomes, most of them with high age normal school training, and fine culture. The white girls are of no such grade, as there is no segregation for them in the great world of things. They have unlimited fields at high wage for even mediocre talents. The best of our girls must take these inferior positions, the inevitable result of sequestration, and the best thing for the issuance of an order destroying this iniquitous practice in all of our government departments, for it not only humiliates the best of the government servants but impairs the government service. (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C.—The treasury department, according to the President's recent acceptance speech, is now under the ablest financial genius since the days of Alexander Hamilton. It is to be remembered that the president was a man of Indies, and in that long sweep of history that the President traversed are the mighty Salmon P. Chase, secretary of the treasury in Lincoln's cabinet, who, in a national extremity such as this country has never known, devised the national Constitution, financed the Civil War, and Ohio's governor, 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 is by far the largest department of the treasury, employing several thousand clerks. Yet Netanyahu's government can't be noticed. There is the same general complaint here among our clerks and other employees as there is in the other branches of the government—failure to recognize their efficiency when promotions are due; ability to go so far and far no further. The various forms of segregation exist here as well as elsewhere—the restaurants closed or divided along color lines, and special toilets, locker rooms, rest rooms, etc., set off for colored. The toilets for the colored are few in such a large structure. Hence, the segregated clerks are forced to endure physical inconvenience at times, and are forced to take care of the toilets to stire the use of them. The department maintains a huge, magnificent cafeteria, in the splendid sweep of woodland along our national driveway, where white people of every class can come to rest, dine, and socialize of afternoons and evenings at minimum costs. The white press of the city is constantly telling of the thousands who take advantage of this "delightful retreat." and the people who create it. It seats two thousand diners with space to spare; but not one Negro! His only share is in the taxes he is forced to pay for this luxury for another group! The 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 or elimination, and being poor, with no other opportunities in this southern atmosphere, must take the former. They are depressed at the wrong, but economists stress compels endurance of it. The 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. Washington, b. 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 departments here was on again at full speed. It had slowed up a little during the campaign. An investigation of Burcus An investigation of the executive departments and bureaus listed below shows that segregation prevails in them as follows: Office of the Register of the Treasury, there are two segregated sections—one with 30 Afro-American employees and the other with 14. Navy Department — one segregated section of 18 of our employees, as well as a segregated lunch room. Census Bureau — a segregated section of 60 Afro-American employ- Bonus Section Bonus section of the War Department—one segregated section of 180 of our employees. Veterans Bureau—a segregated section of 16 employees. Department of Justice—a segregated section of 10 employees in the file room. **Internal Revenue** Internal Revenue Bureau—a segregated section of 7 employees. regated 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. PREJUDICED PROPERTY-OWNERS. ORGANIZE. Atty. Chas. W. White, president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., informs us that prejudiced property-owners in the section of the city bounded by E. 102d St., Kempton Ave., Harriet Rd. and Yale Ave. adjacent to Rockefeller Park, have organized the Neighborhood Impact Committee, the press purpose, it is said, of keeping out of that section "objectionable residents", presumably "Negroes" Jews, et al. Membership cards are sold at one dollar each and a board has been selected with a representative from every street in the section. Every member agrees to first submit a proposal to the prospective purchaser in that section. There are four or five Afro-American property owners in the district. The N. I. Association was organized prior to Dr. J. D. Merida's purchase of his new home in Parmalee Ave. Mob. Wounds Innocent Youth. Mob Wounds Innocent Youth. Eldorado, Ark. - Fifteen men were in custody at Camden, near here, Saturday, facing charges of riotous activities as a result of the wounding of a 14-year-old Afro-American, who was setized by a mob of nearly 200. It was sequestering assets of a 19-year-old white girl. Thad Stevens, the boy, saw the crowd approaching and ran. When called to halt and he failed to obey; he was fired on. The youth dropped to the ground, wounded, and was selzed. It was proven later, when the girl failed to identify him, that he was innocent. Nine Lunchings This Year Nine Lynchings, This Year.

CROSSWORD 4 UNDERPASS 1920s "A PLACE for everything and everything in its place"--and that place, according to Dame Fashion is the sandy beach with its background of sky and sea, when it comes to a perfect setting for apparel which is startlingly bizarre, spectacular and boldly colorful. Wherefore stylists have taken their cue, playing up to their limit the charm of vivid printed silks, cretones, satins and figured crepes, as mediums for beach and swimming costumes. There is an interesting diversity to bathing and beach suits this season, so much so, they give the aspect of a style pageant staged to display a phase of the costume mode. In this gay panorama, one has the satisfaction of seeing humble gingham, yet not so humble according to the latest verdict of the mode, hobnobbing with satin and silk, with never an appearance of cheapening the scene. Indeed the gingham bathing suit has been taken up with alacrity by the elite. The qualtness and youthfulness of a checked gingham bathing suit is proving of widespread appeal. Beach beauties are destined to MATCHING CAPE A TO THE SU THE new wee-patterned silks, which are so gagly highlighting the fabric mode, seem to call for quaint and cunning fashioning. And they get it. One cannot imagine a styling better tuned to these naive silks than this illustration sets forth. It is one of fashion's latest. Cleverness and modishness underwrites this little frock, as viewed from every phase of the style question. The diagonal movement of the plaited rufflings, arranged as they are in tiers, is very new. The use of grosgrain ribbon for binding the edges of the cape bespeaks an outstanding trimming tendency. Of course the first thing one notices about this arresting frock is its cape of self material. Capes to match the summer-silk frock are one of the fore- e GAZETTE Subscribe a promenade In marvelous ensembles this summer, featuring printed silks of every description. A charming beach costume is shown in the picture, which goes to show to what extremes the mode is trending both as to color and design. Two outstanding items in beach attire are the square wrap of gay patterned fabric, also the tunic of vivid print topping baleen sateen pajamas. These short silks which look like an abbreviated day-time frock are also worn over black satin trunks. The "square wrap" above referred to is simply a large square developed of rubberized gay print banded with a plain material. It is fashioned exactly as are the lovely evening shawls made of metal cloth and georgette or brocade. What's more, the smartness of the beach square, as is also true of the evening square shawl, depends largely upon the manner of wearing it. It requires a cunning knack to wrap it around "just so," but the result is worth practicing before the mirror to attain. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (@ 1927, BY NEWSPaper Union.) ODS GRACE SUMMER SILK DRESS most features of the outer modes. Capes also distinguish many of the handsome silk coats which are at this moment so favorably accepted by women of fashion. Often a coat of black silk silk will have a cape attachment finely plaited. Then, too, a frock of good style carries a plaited skirt with a short plaited cape-wrap to match. Such an ensemble developed in black or navy blue is very distinguish. Speaking of capes, they are entering the costume mode from every angle, for evening as well as daytime. Just now it is the pleasure of the mode to add to the dainty pastel chiffon frock a cape of the same material. These transparent capes are indeed charming, especially worn with the sleeveless gown. Newest French fashions include long capes of allover lace. Of black chantilly the wrap serves with every evening frock. However often the lace cape is in matched coloring to the sheer frock. Leading shades for the lace cape include gray, beige and soft modulated green. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (© 1927, by Western Newspaper Union.) E After Re after Reading KLUNERS DAMAGE MERIDA HOME The kluxers in the East End of the city, several times some months ago, bombed Dr. and Mrs. Chas H. Garvin's residence, in Wade Park avenue, in a vain effort, which lasted off and on for about a year, to make them move. For some months now they have permitted the Garvins to live in peace, doubleshall FINALLY being convinced that they would be FORGED to leave even temporarily their newly-built home. Recently, Dr. and Mrs. James D. Merida, whose offices are located on the southeast corner of E. 30th street and Central avenue, purchased a new home at 9106 Parmalea avenue, also in the northeast section of the city. Monday of the week the lawyers again, broke windows and splashed paint on the walls of the new home. Knowing Dr. and Mrs. Merida as we do, we do not think that they (the kluxers) will have any more success in this latest effort than they had in the case of Dr. and Mrs. Garvin.
