Segregation — "S t a g e Lizards"— Branches That Fall to Function Properly. Worcester, Mass. — Following is the speech of Neval H. Thomas, president of The N. A. A. C. P. of Washington, D. C. and member of its national board of directors, before the local Association's branch: Neval H. Thomas. "My Comrades, I have long fought the deadly demon of segregation, for it is the most savage assault that tyranny has ever devised against a struggling people. It destroys the soul of man, it cuts the avenues of growth, it fosters the insane conceit in the dominant group, and leaves you with the 'short end' of every activity or institution that it touches. Its great purpose is to rob the segregated group, and perpetuate a servile class in a nation that politicians call a democracy. I saw in the great commonwealth a community; Charles Summer and Henry Wilson, Benjamin Butler, Wendell Phillips and Garrison, all of whom gave their divine genius to the cause of human brotherhood which means nothing, if not equality; yet today, with Massachusetts in the saddle in Washington there is more segregation there than there ever has been since the Civil War. Their successors have destroyed every stone of the Holy Temple they built, and Republican Supreme Courts have lent their powerful aid and unimaginable this chapter to the law. This chapter, I sat in the Supreme Court and heard Chief Justice Taft read the unanimous decision legalizing the 'jim-crow' school, one of the most injurious forms of segregation." "You must work and sacrifice and give to the people a vigorous fight for their liberty. Some of our cities have only N. A. A. C. P. branches in name, because their leaders want to 'get along' with political machines. I was afflicted in Washington with that type of 'comrade' who dodge your fights, yet occupies seats on your stage. They are getting political swag from your enemies, and using your organization for racial respectability. Do not 'high-hat' the people, but be of them, for them, with them,—love and serve them, and when you speak they will understand, that they were only underly aware of its own language. I know of some communities who can't even organize a branch. The people won't trust them, because they know that money, a sinecure, a 'stand in' with white bosses, is all they want." WHERE'S MARY WALKER? Information is desired by the U. S. Veterans' Bureau as to the present whereabouts of Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Walker, formerly living at 2424 E. 61st St., this city, Cleveland. A relative of Mrs. Walker, living with her at that address was Howard Dyall, who is now deceased. Dyall was a soldier in the World War.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS SAYS WEAVER'S INNOCENT! CHAPLAIN REED OF STATE PENITENTIARY CERTAIN HE IS GUILTLESS. Praises His Attorneys—“A Crime for Him to Die; I’ll Fight for Him,” Says the Chaplain. Columbus, O. —“Joseph Weaver will never go to the electric chair. You may depend upon that. If it has to be done, I myself will lead a movement to prevent it, for I am thoroughly convinced that he had no hand in the killing of Jasper Russell.” Chaplain T. O. Reed of Ohio state penitentiary, in making this pronouncement, banged his fist on the desk as he sat in his office at the big prison. Weaver, confined in the “death cell row” at the prison, was convicted of first degree murder in the killing of Jasper Russell, night watchman of the Parrish-Bingham branch of the Midland Steel Products Co., Madison Ave. and W. 106th St. Cleveland. The crime transpired in March, 1927. On five occasions reprieves have prevented the carrying out of the death sentence pronounced upon him by Common Pleas Judge Carpenter of Norwalk, O., who presided at his trial, conducted in the common pleas court of Cuyahoga county at Cleveland. “Maynor told us: ‘Before my Maker, I swear that this man (pointing to Weaver) is entirely innocent. He didn’t have anything to do with the safe-breaking or murder. Don’t let him go to the chair. He didn’t do it, didn’t know a blessed thing about it. I hung it on him to escape going to the chair myself.’” — Dan W. Gallagher in Cleveland Daily News. “A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE NEGRO” Atlanta, Ga.—In the preparation of this monumental volume, Prof. Monroe N. Work, head of the department of records of Tuskegee, Ala. Institute has produced for the first time an comprehensive bibliography of literature relating to Negroes. When one contemplates the 698 crowded pages of this volume, averaging twenty-five entries to the page, it is difficult to credit the statement in the introduction, which is by Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, that “the author has not tried to include all known printed works on the subjects named; but, indeed, has eliminated the title that he has enacted.” One could really believe that the 17,000 ref- In discussing Weaver's case Chapman Laed paid a high tribute to Nathan E. Cook and Wm. F. Marsteller, Cleveland attorneys, who have filed appeal after appeal in Weaver's behalf, foregoing any remuneration in their efforts to save him from the electric chair. Here are Reed's views: "Weaver is over there in the death cell. And the gallant fight these Cleveland attorneys have made to save his life is deserving of the commendation of the people of this state. They have worked long and hard. And they have done it with out pay. Why? Because the knight would be a prince to permit this man to go to the city. I’m proud to face that Ohio has such attorneys. I have got myself in trouble because of my championship of the cause of this condemned man. But, though additional trouble may come, I will not sit silent and let an innocent man go to his death. As you are fully aware, we have a lifer here named Alex Maynor. He was the state’s ace witness at the trial of Weaver. He turned state’s evidence, maintaining that Weaver had shot and killed Russell when the latter came upon them as they were making their getaway after trying to break into the safe of that plant. Judge Made Inquiries. 'Maynor, for his part in convicting Weaver, got off with life imprisonment. In this case was raised months ago when he guarded, who seemed to have had his doubts about the verdict being justified, appeared at this prison and made some inquiries. Following that, I was the guest of Warden Preston E. Thomas at dinner. And I told the warden: 'I want to get your permission to bring Maynor and Weaver together.' The warden gave me that permission. While I was taking Maynor to Weaver's cell in the condemned section I said to him: 'If Weaver is innocent, for God's sake say so.' That is all I said to him. What followed? Why, Maynor declared that he had lied at the trial; that Weaver had no hand in that murder. He expressed remorse for having sworn falsely on the witness stand. He named another slave. He later he repudiated that confession. Why, I know that Weaver is innocent. And because of his innocence I have told Warden Thomas: 'If the time ever comes that Weaver starts a march to the electric chair you will have to get some other chaplain to accompany him. For I will not be a party to such a miscarriage of justice.' Will Start Fight. "I tell you I am going to launch a tremendous fight to save Weaver. As I understand it, his case is before the supreme court. If it is ordered that the death penalty be carried out I will take his case to the people of Ohio. I'll head the movement to have justice accorded him. Mark my words: He's not going to die in the electric chair. Claims have been made that I used 'unfair tactics' in connection with this matter. I deny that this is so. My sole aim has been to bring out the truth. And the truth has been forthcoming. At the time that Maynor admitted Weaver had taken no part in the murder, Warden Thomas told of further admissions Maynor had made to him. The warden said: THE GAZETTE is the oldest and has the largest bona fide circulation in Ohio, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans published in this or any other country. We have already immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. THE COPY FIVE CENTS AVER! ER'S INNOCENT! STATE PENITENTIARY E IS GUILTLESS.

Gallagher in Cleveland Daily News. "A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE NEGRO" Atlanta, Ga.—In the preparation of this monumental volume, Prof. Monroe N. Work, head of the department of records of Tuskegee, Ala. Institute, has produced for the first time an accurate and comprehensive bibliography of literature relating to Negroes. When one contemplates the 698 crowded pages of this volume, averaging twenty-even credits to the record, a difficult credit statement in the introduction, which is by Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, that "the author has not tried to include all known printed works on the subjects named; but, indeed, has eliminated more titles than he has included." One could readily believe that the 17,000 references contained in the volume would be quite exhaustive. Certainly they are sufficient for all practical purposes. The author has been busy preparing a book of 123 its preparation has visited not only the great libraries of America, but also those of England and the European continent. The project was sponsored by the Carnegie Corporation and the Phelps Stokes Fund, and in carrying it out the author had the advice of many eminent authorities in America, Europe and Africa. The book has three sections, dealing respectively with the Negroes of the United States, and in the West Indies and Latin America. An indication of its completeness is seen in the fact that section two deals with no less than forty-eight distinct topics, requiring 400 pages for the mere listing of titles. A well, arranged table of contents and an index of authors makes it easy to find ones' way about. A bibliography is not to be a popular volume; the importance of the balance of interest in the interracial situation in America, this particular volume should find a place in every well appointed library. DOINGS OF THE RACE. The Canadian government ordered Marcus Garvey to leave that country, Nov. 7, 1928. Of President Coolidge's 75,000 appointments, only 12 minor places were given to Afro-Americans. Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tenn., lost his mother, Oct. 30. He was en route from Washington, D.C. to Chicago. After a triumphant tour abroad and many months of study, Roland Hayes, noted tenor, has returned to begin a concert tour through the country. The South gave the Republicans no more votes than they ever did. Only is this the only time (since Reconstruction days) they have ever counted 'em.—Will Rogers. It cannot be too often repeated that bank-directors should be business men of long experience and demonstrated efficiency and not merely a well-meaning congeries of preachers, dentists, lawyers, undertaken, doctors, politicians—Roscoe Conkling Bruce, N. Y. City. Mrs. Rose Ward Hunt, who died in Washington, D.C., recently, was "Pinkie" Ward, 9-year-old slave girl sold in 1860 from the pulpit of the Brooklyn, N. Y. Congregational church, by the pastor, Henry Ward Beecher, to picture to the congregation the horrors of slavery. The auctioning of the child did much to start anti-slavery agitation in the North. Remembers Our Schools Boston, Mass.—Bequests of $50,000 each given to Tuskegee, Ala., Institute, Hampton, Va., Institute and the Calhoun, Ala., school were announced here, recently, with the filing of the will of Mrs. Ida Means Mason, who left $368,000 of an estate valued at more than $1,000,000 to public institutions. Various Boston institutions were given $115,000.

Hoover sure saved Cooper's political "hide". One of our Richmond, Va. pastors advised his people to "let autos go, and pay for homes". One wise minister! We expect Gov. A. V. Donahey to pardon Joseph Weaver because he is innocent! The Governor is just the man to do it, too. The surprise of surprises was the loss of New York State by its "very popular Governor", the most recent Democratic candidate for President. The success of Judges Florence E. Allen and Robert H. Day in being re-elected to the state supreme bench gives general satisfaction, especially to our people. The Republican National Committee had plenty of funds right up to election day for all of its divisions except the "jim-crow" bureau. How come? Prof. Neval H. Thomas" "sermon" to N. A. A. C. P. local branches, found elsewhere in this paper, ought to be read carefully and thotfully by all members of those organizations. It will be wise for the "Colored brother" to hold his enthusiasm, over the results of Tuesday's election, just a little in check until a few months after the fourth of next March. More Afro-Americans voted for the Democratic candidate for President, Tuesday, than have voted for all the Democratic candidates for President (combined) since the war of the rebellion. The election, Tuesday, of Atty Perry B. Jackson, of this city, our only candidate in the state for membership in the House of Representatives is most fortunate indeed and will give Ohio Afro-Americans their only direct representation in the next State Assembly. The Baltimore (Md.) Afro-American, founded by our long-time and very good friend, J. H. Murphy (deceased), recently issued an exceptionally fine paper in honor of its 37th anniversary. Mr. Murphy's sons own and conduct the publication, possibly our best weekly. Local "Negroes" who supported Myers Y. Cooper, and this includes a number of our local ministers, endorsed the "color-line" that the Republican Governor-elect has drawn in his real estate business in Cincinnati against our people of that city for nearly 25 years. Shame, Oh SHAME! Mrs. Blanche Brookins recently recovered, thru the courts, $2,750 from the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad following her expulsion in July of last year from a Pullman car at Palatak, Fla. She was an interstate passenger. This shows that southern "jim-crow" car-laws are not effective in the case of interstate passengers but are in the case of intrastate passengers. Mrs. Brookins promptly refunded $100 to the N. A. A. C. P. which contributed to aid her legal fund. Hopkins Raising Taxes and Rent: Facing an actual deficit of $481,000 if the city's expenditures are continued for the rest of the year at the present rate, City Manager Will R. Hopkins recently summoned all directors and department heads to his office and instructed them to make reductions wherever possible. The shortage is due to a decrease in the city's income and to a decrease in tax payments. Our color-line city manager must be getting ready to ALFRED E SMITH FOR PRESIDENT STAY OFF THE SOUTH AL! WHAT ABOUT THAT GANG BEHIND THE CURTAIN? IM FOR YOU HARLEM AND GIN! BUT WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF THE COUNTRY? HOLLOWAY 140 HEY. TUBBY, I CAN PLAY WITH YOU TODAY, I DON'T HAFTA STAY AT HOME AN PLAY WITH MY COUSIN, JOEY ask for the issuance of some more bonds. He increased the bonded indebtedness of this city thirty million dollars during his first four years in office and just see what he did to add to this in one day, this week Tuesday, election day: 20 million dollars more. Taxes will soon be so high many poor people will be unable to own homes and others to rent decent places in which to live. TUESDAY'S ELECTION. Myers Y. Cooper of Cheinnati, Republican color-line candidate for Governor, rode into office, Tuesday, on the Ohio Hoover Republican landslide of about a half million votes. This same landslide also carried into office all of the local legislative ticket and other local Republican candidates in this (Cuyah-ga) county and other counties of the state. The triumphant election of Herbert L. Hoover to the presidency does not surprise us. We predicted it, in our last issue. But the break in the solid Democratic South does. We did not expect that. The re-election of Simeon D. Fess, of Yellow Springs, O., and Theodore E. Burton, of Cleveland, O., to the U. S. Senate and the triumphant election of Chester C. Bolton to the U. S. House of Representatives, from the 22d Ohio District, to succeed the Hon. Theodore E. Burton, is especially pleasing. Likewise, the re-election of State Supreme Court Justices Robert H. Day of Massillon and Florence E. Allen of Cleveland. The county Republican ticket won with the exception of Senator Arthur H. Day, who was a candidate for county prosecutor; John G. Tomson, candidate for sheriff. Their defeat is pretty generally attributed to the ousting of the election board so near election day, the major portion of the blame for the irregularities disclosed by State Attorney General Turner being placed on the Republican organization. Attys. Gillespie and Dillard filed suit in Municipal court, Oct. 31, '28, against the proprietor of the Baumster restaurant, $307 Klausman Rd., for refusing service to Verger Turner, E. 75th St., on Oct. 25, '28. They ask $500 damages for Turner, under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law.

MODERN CARS ARE MUCH IMPROVED Many Little Details of 20 Years Ago Have Been Done Away With. Interesting reminiscences of automobiles and automobility 20 years ago are narrated by B. W. de Gulchard, a pioneer in the automobile industry, and head of the AC Spark Plug company, which rounds out its twentieth anniversary this month. "Today the motorist steps into his car, turns on the ignition and is comfortably and confidently away on his journey," Mr. de Gulchard said. "Twenty years ago this same motorist, perhaps, used a tea kettle full of hot water to prime us machine, radiating some of the hot water into the radiator and some of it over the carburetor. Then he would bend over and crank the car; it adroit at this operation, he would escape a broken arm. Care of Headlights. "There were the headlights that had to be filled with oil in the real early days; a little later, carbide lights were introduced. With this method the motorist found it necessary to see that the tank was supplied with water and carbide. "Riding over a rough road, and there certainly were plenty of them, the carbide lights would suddenly flare up like Vesuvius and then as quickly fade away. Following the carbides came the acetylene pressure tank, which was quite an improvement. It will be remembered that all of these lamps had to be lighted with a match. "There were no garages along the roadways 20 years ago and few passersby to render help, so in case of a punctured tire the motorist would begin work on changing the offending bolted on, lug of clincher type fabric tire. Inflating the tire was done by hand pump. There was no such thing as carry an inflated spare tire in the early days. And changing a flat tire then often meant half a day's work, a pair of badly skinned hands and anything but a sweet disposition. Introduce Shock Absorbers. "Shock absorbers were unheard of in the early days. This didn't make motoring over the bumpy roads any better. Windsheild wipers were another unknown appliance, but they weren't needed anyway because everybody jacked their cars up in the garages and kept them there because road conditions made it impossible to use them. "While there was no such thing as a spark plug 30 odd years ago, in the days of sprockets and skepticism the accept means of firing the fuel mixture was a fearful contrivance known as a 'hot tube.' "Equipped with a blow torch the motorist would proceed to heat up the tube. If he couldn't get the tube hot enough, the engine remained dead. If the tube became overheated—bam, backfire, bandages. "Whe. It looked as though that hardy band of pioneer motorists was destined for extinction, the flendifish 'hot tube' was discarded in favor of spark plugs. Spark Plugs Improved. "The first spark plugs were nothing to enthuse about. They were bought by the peck and thrown away by the bushel. But in the intervening years of automobile progress, spark plugs like other component parts of the automobile have been gradually developed and improved until they are as nearly perfect as it is possible to make them. "Today improved engine design eliminates necessity of the tea kettle full of hot water; better tires have reduced greatly necessity for changing. Improved roads and cars make winter driving as popular as at any season, and certainly more appreciated. On any well traveled road the motorist is able as a rule to get service when necessary. "Cars are being driven longer today because of engineering development, and better driving conditions and because of the protective devices on the car such as oil filters, air cleaners, crankcase ventilation, gasoline straainers, balloon tires, shock absorbers, lacquers and paints, instrument board indicators, etc. Again, another factor in the long life and economic operation of today's automobile is the owner's knowledge of the importance of keeping the car serviced regularly." Real Cooling Agent Is Most car owners who know anything at all about the mysteries under the hood appreciate that if the supply of water in the radiator isn't adequate the engine will tend to overheat, but how many know that a reduction in the volume of water reduces the efficiency of the air cooling system? "What has air cooling to do with a water cooled engine?" the average motorist asks. The answer is that the engine is only indirectly cooled by water and that the real cooling agent is the flow of air through the radiator core. The more water there is in this core the more heat is exposed to the air flow. Thus if the water supply is allowed to become too low the air cooling becomes inefficient at the same time. This explains why a motor will run cool up to a certain point and then suddenly overheat when the water level gets too low.

The unit is of special service when driving with small children.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. Know Your Car Is Good It has been said repeatedly that it is important to know wherein your new car differs from its predecessor. But car owners are just commencing to take the idea seriously. This is particularly true of owners of cars with more modern lubricating systems. The man whose former engine had no pressure lubrication to the valve tappets is quite apt to get into trouble. He may remove the covers, drive the car between adjustments of the tappets, and lift the hood again to find oil splattered all over the works. In one of the new models of a low-priced car oil stands in the valve compartment all the time. Thus if the uninitiated owner removes the valve cover plates without placing a bucket under the engine pan he is certain to make a mess of his garage floor. AUTOMOBILE HINTS Today's greatest uplift movement is jacking up autos. Brakes should be inspected every 500 miles or 30 days, depending on the use to which the car is put. It appears that some of the Jay walkers are motorists hurrying back to the safety of their parked cars. England has a rubber business which is liable to fret the American motorist almost as much as that ancient and highly significant tea tax. With two-car families on the increase, it is of some comfort to know that the reckless driver, unlike the two-gun man, can use only one weapon at a time. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1928 Reville FUR FASHIONS STRESS COATS UNDERWEAR & NUDE WEAR THERE is no doubt about the tremendous part color is playing in the evening program, but not to the extent that it has or will dethrone the gown of exquisite black velvet from its position of eminence. On the contrary, the vogue for the formal black velvet dress is more pronounced than ever. What's more, style creators are competing with each other in lavishing extra beauty touches upon the exquisitely sheer black velvet frock, in the way of lovely lace details, glittering embroideries, hand made flower garments and other equally as intriguing fantasies. In the instance of the stately gown pictured, the designer contrasts gleaming black velvet with dull white, in that the crepe which lines the scarf-train and forms the decollette veste is lusterless. The motif of pearl passementerie is a pleasing diversion from the ordinary shoulder bouquet and bespeaks one of fashion's latest touches. The cascade drape of velvet on the skirt is confined at the left hip with a charming garniture of white ostrich and pearls. Perhaps the most striking feature FUR FASHIONS STR STYLED OF C ACCORDING to the idea of the modern furrier two furs worked together are handsome than one. Proceeding along this theory, stylists are creating coats of fur which invite the admiration of all fashionland. The new two-fur coats which register captivating chic come under the following classifications; those which trim flat pelts with luxurious long-haired furs and those which combine flat furs each of which are to supple they yield to graceful fabriclike treatment. Perhaps there is no subject of greater interest relating to fur than that which is the final word in coat styling this season, namely, the manipulation of thin pelts just as if they were fabric. So far is the thought carried that suits (skirt-and-jacket) are made of thinnest broadtail and the like. In this vein of combining flat furs in the making of coats one sees hand some seal models enhanced with beige or white ermine, the same tied in cumbing effects as launily as if fab y Your Co or an Acqu of this queenly model is its court train. At least the scarf-drape thrown so gracefully over the arm may serve either as train or evening scarf. These effective arrangements have found their way on many a classic gown this season—of course on only the most formal types. Often in place of white such a scarf-drape is lined with delicate flesh pink or palest green, in which case the other trimming details of the gown are brought to a nicety of color blend. With the scarf-train made detachable, the gown can be attuned to the dress demands of more or less formal occasions. Black velvet is finding a very sophisticated expression through semifitted princess lines. The severity of the princess silhouette, which, by the way, is the mode's latest accepted styling, is counter-balanced by introductions of face panels, and decolletie yokes whose shoulder straps also are of lace or net, perhaps, which is delicately embroidered in pearls or snarkling palettes. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (© 1988 WESTERN Newspaper Union.) ESS COATS CONTRASTING PELTS ric were employed instead of fur. Perhaps a black broadtail coat will be finished with a triangular neckerchief of some contrasting pelt in light color for the new ideas exploited embrace most unusual and intriguing effects. The picture shows a stunning coat which combines belge shaved-lamb and nutria. Note how deflyt insets of narrow stripes of the nutria are interworked with the shaved-lamb. The new fur vogue accents most intricate handling on this order, some insets being worked into actual designs more or less modernistic in character. Other style features of the coat illustrated are the slightly circular flare given to the hemline, also the new cuff and collar design. A fur very popular with the youthful set is natural gray Persian lamb. Coats of fur of this character are often accompanied with tiny muffs. In fact the vogue for fur ensembles is adding zest to the mode. Often snug bats, muzzle the wee muffs.

Finley was battered throughout the tussle, exposing a badly tattered back. The battle was slow. Flowers-Wallace Bout. Bruce Flowers, our premier New Rochelle, N. Y., lightweight, who boxed Billy Wallace (white), leading local fighter, at Public Hall, Wednesday, is a master boxer who has come to the fore during the last couple, of years. A virtual unknown, he vaulted into the front ranks of challengers for the 135-pound toga by a whirlwind campaign that can reach 1,500 pounds, leading lightweights in competition. A fine boxer and a hard puncher, his furious body-punching attack enabled him to whip many of the contenders for Sammy Mandell's title. Bruce has defeated Lew Paluso, was victor over Wallace here two summers ago; Billy Petrolle, Honeyboy Finnegan, Sammy Ogel, Jack Bennion, Billy Wallace, Wallace and others. Among his knockout victims is Stanislaus Lozay. Wallace won their 12-round bout, Wednesday night, at Public hall. So now Bruce and Billy are even. Atlanta. Defeats Morehouse. Atlanta, Ga.—Morehouse College and Atlanta University, traditional rivals, met here, Saturday. The game ended 12-7 with the Maroon team making a desperate effort to make another touchdown. Kid Chocolate Wins Another Kayo Kid Chocolate Wins Another Kayo New York City.—Just twelve seconds before the end of the first round of the main event at St. Nick's arena, last week Monday night, Kid Chocolate, speedy bantam from Cuba, caught Joey Ross, (white), with a long left swing to the jaw, causing Ross to execute a backhand. New York sport-writers, Damon Runyon, had the following to say about the Kid recently: "The Cuban seems to have everything. But most of anything he has showmanship. He is a shiny black, a patent-leather black. His black skin fairly shines in its blackness, as if polished. He has long inky black hair, and he came into the ring Monday night with it plastered tightly to his little round skull, and then he came to small, small luminous black face, a wide mouth with very red lips, and between the red lips a double row of big shining white teeth that seemed to spankle under the lights as he showed them in a broad groin, bowing to all sides of him. He wore black fighting shoes, with white stockings rolled down over the tops, and white anklets. His trunks were of black satin with red walband, the official trunks of the New York state boxing commission, and new. He came in draped in a well brown cape. You could see the fellow has a lot of natural actor in him from the way he took his bows. His body looks as if it were carved by a master hand out of polished ebony. He seems to be perfectly proportioned. He closed his red lips over the white teeth as the bell rang, the smile faded and he swing leisurely out of his corner to meet the oncoming, bobbing little Ross with a long, snapping left hand. He poked and poked an arm and then Kid Chocolat unlessailed a short right hand to the heart that showed his real power. He ducked. He sidestepped. He stabbed, and he hooked with his left, crossed and uppercut with his right. He seemed to have everything, I repeat." Wilberforce Held to a Tie. Wilberforce, O.—Knoxville, Tenn., college team held Wilberforce to a 6 to 6 tie here. Saturday afternoon, although the latter held the upper-hand most of the way. Both teams scored a quarter, Ward, right halfback, scoring for Wilberforce through the line after a series of line thrusts placed the ball in scoring position. Attention! Readers!

This chapter shall Our mob-violence or anti-lyaching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence shall without a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter.

Section 6280.

Sum sum may be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equivalent to a christian child, widow of a child or children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate.

A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob (93 v. 162 6). Section 6234. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7). Section 6235.

Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or injured by a person killed or injured by the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought into the county, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county, willing to protect such prisoner or carrying such mob. (63 v. 163 11.) very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other nor- thern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows: UBS. ud. representative of victim of lynching. ry by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. inst member of mob st another county. not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Hon. Harry C. Smith's Editor, who has written the editor's book had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof shall be furnished not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days or more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundreds dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is that people will pay more often if they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor The Gazette, Cleveland, O. My Dear Sir; Observing your letter to the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I急急 to send you, under a separate cover, a poster, of the porter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism editorially. THE LAW PROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained, My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled, There is no flesh in man's ob- durate heart. It does not feel for man; the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own; and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot: —Cowper. Reading It Reading It
