Cleveland's De Lux Public Hall Where the Great Sunday School, Congress Will Hold Its Sunday Afternoon Mass Meeting, June 9. Dr. Henry Allen Boyd was a visitor in our city, Monday, making his final arrangements with Dr. Ernest Hall for the great Sunday School Congress, which meets in Cleveland, June 5-10. Drs. Boyd and Hall secured the city auditorium, better known as Public Hall, in which to hold the Sunday afternoon mass meeting on June 9th at which time 10,000 Sunday School workers will march in a parade to the place of meeting to listen to a great program which will be the climax of the great Congress gathering. Prof. H. B. P. Johnson of Chicago arrived in the city, this week, to re- Too Strong a Combination for Merit to Beat, So Mrs. Roberts, An Ohioan, Lost. Boston, Mass.—Battling courageously against an unbeatable combination of racial prejudice and sympathy for a blind contestant, Mrs. Nadyne Roberts Waters, dramatic soprano of Wyoming, Ohio, lost a cash prize here, recently, in a contest held by the National Federation of Music clubs in its second biennial contest at Steinert hall. All of the 15 contestants were white with the exception of Mrs. Waters, who were a well-known conductor and many of the audience that Mrs. Waters had won, congratulations were showered upon her immediately after she left the stage. Mrs. Waters wrote a music critic on one of the leading Boston daily newspapers, who was one of the judges and this was his reply: "In good faith I gave my vote for first prize to a young Colored girl (Mrs. Waters) and left the hall. There was no doubt but that she sang far better than any of the other contestants". JOE VISITED HIS MOTHER. Cleveland, O., May 22, '29. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, City. Dear Sir: I—received from Georgia, last week Thursday evening, at 6 o'clock. I received the package of Gazettes just before I left Midville, Ga. and distributed some, and had the others distributed among my friends whom I need to see. My visit with my mother and relatives was enjoyed in the highest degree. My mother had regained half of the weight she lost while I was in the death cell at Columbus, O. I will call again to see you. As I wrote you from Midville, recently, I called on Mr. Benj. Davis while stopping over in Atlanta, en route to Midville. Yours respectfully, Joseph Weaver. Wilberforce Wins! Washington, D. C.—The young women of the Mu Lambda Debating society of Howard University lost to Wilberforce, last week Friday evening, in a well conducted forensic contest. Howard had been successful at Wilberforce. The subject discussed was, "Resolved, That the Power of the Supreme Court to Declare Laws Unconstitutional Should Be Abolished". The negative won in both instances. Girls to Get Their Jobs. Spokane, Wash.—R. C. Taylor, assistant superintendent of dining-car service on the Northern Pacific, has announced that girls (white) are being trained to replace our waiters, chefs and assistant chefs on their trains running between Livingston and Gardiner, Mont. Taylor must sure be a southern "cracker". This is the kind of dirty work they do in the North whenever they get a chance. this chorus. Dr. Hall reports that all of the churches in the city, without regard to denomination, have opened their doors to receive delegates and most of them have pledged their support in every way needed. An invitation is hereby extended to every Sunday School in the city to participate in the parade. This parade will have children of all ages playing music for those who march. One of the bands, known as the Congress band, consisting of 23 persons, will come from Nashville, Tenn., on the Congress's special train. Let everyone get ready to enjoy a week of good things when the great Sunday School Congress meets, June 5 to 10. Florida has run true to form again by lynching a white man that was jailed after the chief of police had shot to death his wife. Florida that voted the Republican ticket at the last election and is now being considered a trophy and valuable recruit to the Republican party, not changed one whit. It is a lawless and lieing as it always has. The life of no one is safe in Florida, white or black, if that life seeks to protect itself from Florida injustice. It is now time for the Republican party to insist that Florida, as a Republican state, cease lynching and obey the law. The Republican party should look to the best citizens of Florida, who have the recommending of persons fit to hold federal positions, to put an end to choking and to commit themselves or any one else to be pound-keepers. How can the President expect the rest of the country to enforce the prohibition amendment and the Democratic party sit quietly by and see human life sacrificed by officers of the law? The coroner's jury, composed of the worst liars in the world, found that the dead man was killed by parties unknown to the jury; and it is barely possible that the mob helped to make up the jury. The sheriff reported that he did not know any of the mob. He shoed the hanged by the bank until he was found of what the law of justice demands of sheriffs. It added that two Negro prisoners were in jail but could not identify any of the mob. True they would not, for had they the rope and bullets that killed, the white man would have taken them away. Let us enforce the law that protects human life before we run mad about the law that prohibits a drink. Then, too, Florida is the play-ground of our elite millionaires of the North who go there and become involved with the Florida either of lynching or indifference toward it. Los Angeles, Calif.—Nate George, unheralded and unnoticed Afro-American spinner of Whittier college, pulled one of the most unexpected upsets in southern California track and field history at the Coliseum, Saturday afternoon, May 11, when he defeated Frank Wyckoff and Charley Borah, favorites in the 100-yard dash at the annual A. A. U. track meet. George ran a smooth race, winning time 9:4-5 seconds. Wyckoff is remembered as the 19-year-old youngster who defeated Charles Paddock last season. Another great upset of the afternoon was the spectacular running of Harry Chance, an Indian youth, who won the world championship in 1904, when he lapped his field and won the six-mile run in 29 minutes, 44 seconds. Winning the dash assures George a trip to the National A. A. U. meet to be held July 5 in New York City. arse the Congress chorus which ill consist of three hundred voices osen from the various churches of a city. An invitation is extended all the churches to send persons East Mt. Zion Baptist church, ner of Cedar Ave. and E. 103rd for rehearsal. Notices have been t to all the churches asking for volunteer singers from the age of 18 upward. This promises to be the most festive feast the citizens of Cleveland have had for period of one week. Prof. Johnson is nationally known as one of the best chorus-trainers in the country. Every one, who wants to learn more about singing, should extend himself of the opportunity to join Denounce Lynching and Characterize it as Barbarity and Are Right. Memphis, Tenn. — Denouncing lynching as "a badge of shame to our civilization", the Southern Baptist Convention (white) at its recent annual session in this city, urged that every effort be made to build up and maintain "a public sentiment that will establish justice and banish from our borders the appalling practice of mob violence". Continuing, the convention said: "Never should we be content until every vestige of this barbarity is eradicated and every individual has secured to him the right of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness". The significance of this statement is found in the fact that the convention represents the largest religious group in the South, with 20,000 churches and a membership of more than 3,800,000. Must Scent Another War! Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—For the first time since the close of the World War, our officers of the U. S. Reserve corps in the South will receive military instructions. An Officers' Training camp is to be stationed here, May 25. Col. Benj. O. Davis of Cleveland, O., our ranking officer in the U. S. Army, now attached to the O. N. G., will be the instructor. He will be assisted by Capt. Arthur P. Hayes, military instructor here, who will serve as adjutant. A. Naval Cadet? Annapolis, Md.-Charles E. Wier of Chicago nominated for the local U. S. Naval Academy by Congressmas Oscar DePriest of Chicago, has passed the mental examination. He was an alternate from his district. Lawrence A. Whitfield, nominated as principal, did not appear for examination. Claude Hanson Burns, the second boy named as principal, failed to pass the examination. Wier goes in with June class, if he is not "framed" in the physical examination, June 18. Of the 1000 who took the examination, 802 were successful. Parham a West Point Cadet Chicago, Ill.—Alonzo S. Parham is the cadet major in the R. O. T. C. now taking a post-graduate course in algebra at the Wendell Phillips high school, this city, from which he graduated in February. He is 18 years old, five feet nine inches tall and weighs 159 pounds. He will be the first of our race to enter West Point since 1889. The Editor Wins! Oklahoma City, Okla.—The suit for $50,000, brought against "The Black Dispatch" and Editor Roscoe Dungee of this city by Rev. E. J Cain, a local preacher, was thrown out of court, recently, after three years' litigation, by Judge Wiley Jones A WHITE RESIDENT! (Special to The Gazette) (Rev.) William A. Byrd. Shows His Heels to Veterans SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS MURDEROUS U. S. MARINES SLAUGHTER THREE THOUSAND HAITIANS, SAYS U. S. SENATOR WM. H. KING. Peasants Who Never Had Deeds to Farms, Being Ousted and Ownership by a Foreign Company Follows—Hoover Has Power to Withdraw the Marines—Outrage After Outrage! Port-au-Prince, Haiti—These advises predict an over-population at no distant day, of particularly the fertile rural districts of this island republic. The peasants are the owners of practically all of the agricultural country, there being no individually extensive land ownership. Therefore, no large agricultural exploitation is possible, unless the present small owners are dispossessed of their properties. How is this being accomplished? By the quite simple expedient of ordering these hard-working unschooled people of the hinterland to show their territorial claim to their property possibly a century or 50 years ago, has disappeared, the present occupant is charged with unlawful possession of territory belonging to the state and is driven by American officers, installed by puppet President Borno, off the premises. (Property of a parent is distributed among his children without resort to court procedure, a custom not readily understood by the controversial American heir or heirs.) Ownership by some foreign company rapidly follows. The Haitian Constitution provided specifically against ownership of any portion of its soil by foreigners. This situation is not the case with the American marine invaders (American Occupation) by forcing a revision of the century-old Constitution. Quoting from a former Charge d'Affaires of the Haitian Legation at Washington and the president of L'Union Patriotique d'Haiti, Monsieur Percival Thoby: No Room for Business "The area of the Republic of Haiti is 26,000 square kilometers. There is consequently no room for business on a large scale. Life has been inexpensive because everyone is the owner of a piece of land, or of a house, and each family obtained their food from their country land. With the persistent confiscation, under the American Occupation, of these small properties the commodities of life are rapidly disappearing and the cost of living mounting in proportion to the scarcity of native produce. Girls Must Work "Previous to 1915, when the U.S. landed bayonetted troops (marines), the young girl whose family had an income that permitted leisure was, as is customary in the United States, kept at home. The policy of land confiscation has deprived many of these families of their incomes and these girls are forced to look for work in the stores, government offices, etc. As a result, hundreds have been ruined! It is economic necessity, that they work, and not because of deprived American education. Haitians in general despise the Americans for the destruction of that custom which protected these girls from the immoral habits of the gynaees." 4000 Slaves The assertion recently attributed, in a New York daily, to Commander Cooke that, in the public works of Haiti there were employed only 33 Americans and 4,000 Haitians is, according to our correspondent, meticulously correct. The 4,000 Haitians, however, are 4,000 slaves with a daily wage of 30 cents, paid every 22 days (the average late), when there are no fines levied against their pay envelopes. The 32 Americans are 32 high officials with salaries aggregating thousands of dollars monthly. $40,000,000 Debt In reply to the statement of the author, H. P. Davis, relating to the reduction of the $40,000,000 internal debt, Monsieur Thorey says: "When Haitian territory was invaded by U. S. marines we had an internal debt of about $10,000; interested in some unsettled claims. The American Occupation forced upon Haiti an International Claim Commission. As soon as this Commission was created a mass of previously rejected claims were again presented amounting to $32,000,000, of which $9,000,000 were American. The fictitiousness of $8,000,000 of these American claims becomes at once apparent because the decision of this International Commission the $9,000,000 shrivelled to $400,000; the exact amount previously recognized by the Independent Haitian Government as valid." And the United States is maintaining marine bayonets in Haiti "to preserve order" where there is no disorder, pretending to be motives of the most disinterested benvolence—Baltimore Afro-American. THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. E COPY FIVE CENTS ANDS! U. S. MARINES HOUSAND HAITIANS, SAYS OR WM. H. KING. Mad Deeds to Farms, Being hip by a Foreign Company Has Power to Withdraw outrage After Outrage! Washington, D. C. — President Herbert Hoover has the power to withdraw American marines from Haiti without authorization from Congress, according to U. S. Senator Wm. H. King, of Utah. The U. S. military forces have been held in Haiti by executive authority since 1979, and if the executive department says so, and if no legislation would be required to compel the withdrawal of the American marines, "But the executive department," says Senator King, "has been deaf to the appeals of the Haitian people and to the liberal sentiment of this country and has pursued a reactionary and imperialistic policy". Senator King has sought to apply legislation upon the appropriation of his adopted, would compel the withdrawal of the American marines from Haiti. Each year when the Navy Department appropriation bill is under consideration in the Senate, he has offered an amendment which would prohibit the use of any part of the naval appropriation for the maintenance of any officer or enlisted man in the military or naval service in Haiti. His efforts have been in vain. 3,000 Haitians Slaughtered! 5,000 Haitian men murdered. Senator King does not blame the American people for their inference. "The people not the fathers," he declares, "that American battleships took possession of Haitian ports and American military forces waged warfare upon Haitian soil, killing more than 3,000 Haitian people. They do not know that since 1915 the Haitian people have been deprived of the right to govern themselves, and have been subjected to the will of the United States; nor do they know that the United States overthrew the government, abolished their constitutions, and legislated from their legislative chambers, and have prevented the Haitian people from having any voice in the control of their internal or foreign affairs". If American battleships and marines were withdrawn from Haiti, Senator King says there would be universal rejoicing among the Haitian people. But he entertains no illusions. "Military control of Haiti is still the same as the liberal forces of this country aroused. Thousands of Haitians have left their native land, and many others have been forced from, lands which they and their fathers occupied for many years". Extrayagance. Authentic information which he has received from Haiti, Senator King states, confirms the statements made by Atty. Napoleon B. Marshall, who was a clerk for six years in the U. S. consulate at Port au Prince. Capt. Marshall recently resigned his position and returned to this country. In a recent newspaper article the U.S. newspaper charged that a mysterious fire burned unaudited accounts and vouchers and that Haitian road-making has consulted American convenience rather than Haitian needs. He also charged extravagance on the part of some of the American officials in Haiti. "Poor "Bleeding Haiti" the little blue republic! The great librator, emancipator and martyr, Toussaint L'Ouverture, drove from its shores the flower of the great Napoleon Bonaparte's army, under his brother-in-law, Gen. Le Clerq, to achieve its independency. FIRST COMMUNITY CHURCH Rapidly Forging to the Front—Baptismal Services and Other Church Notes Jersey City, N. J.—The first baby baptized in the First Community church was Miss Gloria Louise Boulden, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Boulden of 312 Halliday St. Mrs. Louise Smith, secretary of the church and also grandmother of Miss Gloria, was God mother.

N. K. McGill, counselor of the same publication, made a visit to the grave of the late Theodore Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, L. I., recently. We could not do it because of too vivid a remembrance of what "Czar Theodore" did to the innocent members of "The Black Battalion". Members of the Congress and presidential electors are apportioned on the basis of population. In the southern states where our voters and thousands of white Republicans, regardless of educational qualifications, are deprived of their vote, Democratic voters get an unfair power in comparison with all northern voters. On the basis of the 1924 figures, one vote in Mississippi for the choice of presidential electors had a weight of a little over six votes in New York State, a disparity not, of course, wholly due to dis- Every Sunday School, Organized Class, B. Y. P. U., Boy Cadet and religious worker interested in Front Line Sunday Schools are urgently requested to meet me face to face in the Sunday School Congress in Cleveland, Ohio, June 5-10, 1929. Let us leave no stone unturned in our very definite program for the extension of His kingdom here upon earth. There is much work to be done. The harvest is truly great, but the laborers are few. I feel it encumbent upon me to urge upon the Sunday School Force to take advantage of this opportunity to do something in their day and generation to plant the banner of King Emanuel on high heights, to spread the gospel everywhere, to put a piece of Baptist literature in every home, to see that the Bible is no longer a secret Book, but make it accessible to all. Reduced round-trip rates on the identification certificate plan have been applied for. Cleveland is assuring us that she will receive us with open arms. Every Sunday School, every religious organization that feels able, may send a personal representative, a messenger from all of their classes, all of their auxiliaries to this gathering. There will be no strangers at the Congress; it will be a Summer Sunday School of Methods; it will be a workshop for Sunday School workers—five days of actual instructions, five days of institute work, five days of extension program, five days of real training. Those Sunday Schools who cannot come in person may be represented through their enrollment. If you are interested in the extension of the kingdom through our denominational work and activity, communicate with me. If you want a railroad identification certificate which will enable messengers and dependent members of their families to secure the rate, write to me for one, or for any other information in a denominational way, that you think I can give you. franchisement. Representation in Congress and the electoral college should be reduced proportionately in southern states which by force or fraud deny the vote to any of their citizens. This would not require a constitutional amendment, either. If they discriminate against low citizens of any race or class, why are the Northern and Universal Air Lines allowed to use these same citizens' Cleveland air port, as a basis of their operations? Ask City Manager Hopkins! And what are those three "Negro" councilmen thinking about that they sit and stand supinely by and permit such insult to their people without even a protest? Lord, have MERCY! Come! Brown, George and Gregg wake up and DO something. Talk is entirely too cheap. A REAL MAN! James Holmes, of Clarksdale, Miss., is charged with having killed V. A. Dickerman, white planter, who mistreated him. This happened, over a week ago. Mobs of heavily armed "men", with bloodhounds, searched thoroly the countryside but have not apprehended Holmes who went South about a year ago from Illinois. He changed his boots after leaving Clarksdale, it seems, so the two and four-legged hounds hunting him were helpless. Thank the Lord! Keep going "Brother" Holmes until you get back to the state of the immortal Lincoln and Lovejoy. Do not, however, "park" in Ohio which is so unfortunate, just at this time, as to have a color-line Governor. And more power to your kind of "Negroes!" May their tribe increase rapidly. COUNCILMEN GEORGE, BROWN. Councilman Clayborne George! Again we ask what has become of your resolution for improved service on the Scovill and Central Ave. street-car lines? Four runs and nine trailers were taken off the Scovill Ave. line, and two runs were taken off the Central Ave. line, several weeks ago. This is fine (?) recognition of your Council resolution, introduced, many months ago! The service on both lines was very bad before the latest "cut". Now, it is infinitely worse and your constituents demand action. Get busy! Also, what has become of Councilman Russell S. Brown's City hospital resolution? City Manager Hopkins has had plenty of time to reply to its inquiries. We expected action, last Monday night, at the City Council meeting, but in vain. Hopkins is "shifty", as we warned you several weeks ago, "Brother" Brown. Do not let him "string you along", any longer, but in open Council demand a reply to your resolution inquiry. Do not let him "play you" in any such fashion, in this matter. Get busy! Both your and George's constituents, particularly those of color, want ACTION.

Cincinnati, O. — The courts have had, for several weeks, varied pleasing sessions concerning the allmany and divorce suits of DeHart Hubbard and his charming wife. The couple have a pair of very handsome children, whose large innocent eyes and prattling lips portray their sinlessness. From the husband's standpoint the wife figures as the passenger of a vile temper, a tongue listed as a record-breaker, a nerve that enables her to draw a bead with a thirty-two calibre gun, the poise of "Calamity Jane", and a tone that would stop DeHart in a jump were in mid-air intent on a record-breaker. In her defense, Mrs. DeHart (Hubbard) claims extreme provocations and intimates that the world's great athlete has made a speciality of jumping from one to other fair, but hurts workers. That school-teachers and social workers seem to have him hoo-dooed. The fair but frail females claim that Madam Hubbard is insanely jealous of her record-breaking husband.

The downfall of Singer came with surprising suddenness to the crowd of 10,000. Fernandez, badly hurt by five low jumps, corner at the start of the third round and smashed Singer before him. He caught the New York boy at the ropes, sent him reeling with a left to the chin, and ended the engagement with a whistling right cross that stretched Singer senseless on the canvass.

Mr. Green also addressed a woman's meeting at the same church earlier that evening. The establishment of Provident, Pentecost and Wilson Hospitals and Dailley Sanitarium (for "Negroes") in Chicago has just about closed the doors of all the other hospitals in that city to "Negroes" with the result that the situation has become so serious that Chicago Catholics "have proposed a million dollar hospital for Negroes." This is the condition Jim-crow would have of Cleveland would (if they would) foist on our people of this city with their advocacy of a hospital "on the East side, officered by colored and white physicians and help", or an out-and-out "jim-crow" hospital.

CONGRESS To Convene in Cleveland, Next Month, Will Be An Extraordinary Event. Practically all of our local Baptist churches, under the direction of Rev. Ernest Hall, pastor of East Mt. Zion Baptist church and his ministerial, laymen and other associates in the management of the arrangements for the coming of the great Baptist Sunday-School Congress, June 5 to 10, are still working hard, preparing for it, and the anticipations of our people of Cleveland are running high because they realize that the Congress is really going to be something out of the ordinary in many respects, something never before witnessed in this city. Rev. Gary Allen Boyd of Nashville Tenn., secretary of the Congress and promoter of the great gathering, is full of enthusiasm, aggressive and exceptionally capable as a leader in church and Sunday School work. He knows how to get results, which accounts largely for his splendid success in the past, extending over many years. Mr. Boyd invites every Sunday-school, organized class, boy cadet, and religious worker to attend this great national Congress where no stone will be left unturned for the further expansion of Sunday-school work yet to be done. The delegates to the Congress from all sections of the country may rest assured of the generous hospitality of Anderson and very possible, and follow Seventh Council and the rest of the Congress' official staff, into this city, next month, with the utmost confidence of experiencing a wonderful time in the service of the Master.

CARE OF TIRES NOT EASY TASK Driver Wastes Much Money by Not Observing Simple Motor Rules. If American motorists gave their motor car tires as much care as they give their own shoes they would save hundreds of millions of dollars they now waste through carelessness. Experts say almost every driver wears out the equivalent of a tire a year because he does not observe simple rules which not only prolong the life of his casings but make for easier riding. The main causes of premature tire ruin are: driving with wheels out of alignment, needless high speed, faulty use of brakes and improper inflation. Brakea Wear Tires. Paradoxically, the more the automobile is improved the harder it becomes on tires. Four-wheel brakes will stop a car almost as short as a stone wall, but they wear down tires at an appalling rate if they are habitually slapped on at high speed. Unevenly adjusted brakes scuff out tires as a small boy scuffs out shoes. Increased speed also is hard on tires, yet the more cars in use the faster traffic must be kept moving, and the greater the wear on tires in slowing down and stopping. Recent tests have shown that a car driven at 35 miles an hour and stopped every quarter mile wore the tread design on a standard tire entirely away in a little more than 100 miles. Stopped only every mile, the tread lasted 3,000 miles. Inflation Is Important. The one important factor in tire wear that is completely under the control of the man at the wheel is inflation. Experiments made with identical tires on identical cars, one set properly inflated and the other only six pounds under-inflated, showed that firm tires lasted one-quarter longer. Kicking a tire to test its pressure is about as sensible as taking strychnine tonic by drinking it out of the bottle. There is only one way to test tire pressure, and that is with a gauge. Four minutes once a week, spent on testing tire pressure may save at least the price of one new casing a year. Find Misuse of Signals Growing in Many Cities The misuse of traffic signals is increasing disregard for their meaning, says a recent report of the American Engineering council, which has just concluded a traffic survey in 104 American cities. Two fundamental errors have been observed in a majority of the cities, the council finds. The most important is the placing of the signals without first having an adequate survey of conditions to be handled, or without a thought of what may result at other intersections. The other fault is the placing of signals at corners not justified under the circumstances. “The result of such error,” says the report, “is that the public will recognize their error and have a consequent disregard of all traffic signs and devices.” Grease Cups Left Grease cups have not entirely disappeared before the newer varieties of lubrication systems. On many cars, the rear wheel bearings and fan bearing, at least, still are lubricated by the rather primitive cup. These are very vital parts doing a great deal of hard work, but because they require more time for lubrication than those parts which may quickly be reached with the gun, they often are ignored. It is a case of grease or wear. MOTOR QUIZ (How Many Can You Answer?) (How was the first trans continent formed?) Aus.-In 1903 from the Pacific coast to Boston. Actual running time was 47½ days. Q.-What is the "breaking in" period for a new car? Ans.-Usually the first 500 miles. Q.-What care should be exercised with a new car? Ans.-The maximum speed should be 20 to 25 miles per hour. Up to 1,000 and 1,500 miles a new automobile should be driven at a reasonable rate of speed. After the first 500 miles when the engine is warm, accelerate up to 40 miles occasionally, but as soon as the speedometer registers 40 or 45 miles, slow down to 30 or 35. This will cause the oil to circulate freely among the working parts. It is advisable to have the dealer check up the car after the first 1,000 miles. Q.-Why are air cleaners used on so many cars? Ans-It removes dust and dirt from the carburetor intake air, thereby eliminating abnormal engine wear. Road dust, mixing with oil film on cylinder walls and other parts, would form a grinding compound and cause excessive wear.

AID OF RAIL MOTOR THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1929 SHOES ADD BOWS AND SUBTRACT SLEEVES IS FASHION'S ARITHMETIC PROBLEM UNDERWOOD UNDERWOOD FROM simplest dressmaker and milliner to most exalted contouriere and modiste, from bootmaker to handgap specialist, jeweler, glovenaker and scarf designer, the whole world of fashionists have gone matchmaking. This idea of matching this, that and the other of costume accessories has added a very zezful and exciting note to the apparel program. Not only are the stylists who set the mode challenged to play up their most intriguing creative talents, but the clientele which they serve are inspired to make of shopping an art. For with fashion's demand for a "perfect match" no longer can a woman who would dress successfully buy casually or impulsively this and that which happens to strike her fancy. Rather must she cultivate to a nicety the study of color values and related design, in order to exercise that fine discrimination in her selections such as will so correlate her attire that each costume will stand out unified and individualized. The matching vogue plays no favorites. Accessories are expected to ADD BOWS AND SU IS FASHION'S AR NOW that April has fulfilled the traditional promise to "bring forth May flowers" fancy lightly turns to thoughts of that which is soon to follow—vacation days. And thoughts of vacation are always largely attended with meditations on "what to wear." Which leads up to the whereof of the picturing herewith of this very dainty flowery Little frock. It is a typical summer-day dress. Just the thing to wear where skies are blues, and sunshine, green fields and flower-strewn paths say "Come!". It is interesting to note that in designing this dress the stylist brings into play certain rules of arithmetic in that sleeves are subtracted, and bowes are added. In this instance a large soft-tied bow at the neck does duty in lieu of many little bowes. For you must know that summer-frock trimmings are largely a matter of bows. Scarceily a dress for daytime wear appears without its quota of bows. When in doubt, tie it with a bow and this applies to neckline, waistline, wristline, shoulder line, in fact, even the slight est excuse is quite sufficient to warrant y Your Copy or an Acqu match whether the costume be the simplest sort for sportswear or for the street ensemble, or for resplendent evening attire. In the picture are shown several intriguing "sets." The felt hat banded with the identical silk print of the large kerchief scarf which is knotted nonchalantly about the shoulders presents an appealing idea—especially when the gay print is in vivid tone. The newest thing in scarsfis is the narrow long kind, such as the one sketched with the matching pocket book in this illustration. A combination such as this gives tone to any street costume. Shoes-to-match is the latest hobby of the mode—which means that fashionable shoes are this season made of anything from straw or designful cotton prints to the most exquisite silks and novelty fabrics. The pocketbook and shoes circled in the upper right corner of the picture are handsome embroidered crope de chine. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (C. 1929, Western Newspaper Union.) BTRACT SLEEVES ATHMETIC PROBLEM UNDERWOOD UNDERWOOD the use of numerous bows or a bows. Measuring up to the importance of the presence of bows is the absence of sleeves. With fashion, sleevelessness has become a hobby. If one insists on some sort of a covering for the arms then turn to a deep capetier or bertha collar, or streaming-from-the-shoulders panels—anything which will serve as a substitute for sleeves. Most of the summer dresses are made just that way. Another inspiration to the woman who makes her own clothes is the lovely materials which are, many of them, amazingly inexpensive, considering their beauty. Gay print vollees crepes, dimities and handkerchief linen make up a goodly part of modish washable fabrics which, being sheer, lend themselves admirably to the soft "dressmaker styling" now so much in vogue. Hood embroidery on thin materials finds favor with the mode this season, which to the woman skilled in needlecraft means "opportunity knocking at the door." JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

Gregg Opposed to Our Girls Entering City Hospital School for Nurses in Common With the Girls of All Other Classes or Races in This Community. When Councilman Russel S. Brown brot up his resolution, in the caucus of Republican members of the City Council, to open the local City Hospital to our girls, desiring to become trained nurses, and to our internes, Councilman Gregg objected to it saying that it was not time to expect our girls to train for nurses with white girls at that public institution. What do you think of that? Our boys and girls have been studying and training together in the public institutions of this city for more than fifty years. Brown is also alleged to have said that Gregg asked that what was said in that meeting would not be repeated on the outside and that he (Brown) refused to accede to Gregg's request. The following letters are pertinent and self-explanatory. Cleveland, Apr. 6th, '29. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gregg, Cleveland, O. Dear Sir;—I am somewhat surprised to read your editorial "Not Time" of April 6th publication, an absolutely false statement accredited to me and by Rev. Russell S. Brown. It will be hard for me to believe that Rev. Brown reported such a falsehood, for I have high regard for him. I believe that no man has labored harder for negro advancement in Cleveland than I, and yet I wish to add that. I have more confidence in moral saussion and diplomacy as methods of achievement than radio Very truly yours, E. J. Gregg, M. D. Councilman Gregg says he didn't say it, while Councilmen Brown and George say he did. The difference is only a question of veracity between the gentlemen named, with two against one. Therefore, the preponderance of evidence is against Gregg. If Gregg has ever "labored hard for 'Negro advancement in Cleveland" we have failed to learn of it, so we have watched his career ever since he landed, from "down home"—Editor. Brown Says Gregg Said It. Cleveland, O, April 9, '29. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Sir: I appreciate your calling me over the telephone and apprizing me of that part of Dr. Gregg's letter to you which refers to me. I did not give you the information which was the basis of your editorial but I presume you got it from some one who had talked with me and Hunter. First, let me give you the "heart" of the resolution referred to: "That a special committee of three members of this Council, to be appointed by the mayor, is hereby authorized and directed to investigate the operation of the City Hospital and any contracts of the city with any institutions or agencies with a view of ascertaining whether full and equal opportunities are accorded all citizens for training in medical and nursing professions". This was discussed in a meeting among a number of friends. It was at that meeting that Dr. E. J. Gregg opposed the resolution on the ground that it was untimely; that there existed an organization of white nurses which would not allow their memb- ers to work with colored nurses, and if we were to enter into the City Hospital it might disrupt the morale of the entire hospital. I maintained then, as I do now, that an official investigation and report on the matter will give us a basis on which to work. It is both timely and right to open the City Hospital to our boys and girls. This is the humanly possible to quote the facts. The doctor (Gregg) and I were not the only members of our race present. Atty. Clayborn George councillor, was also present. Please call him and ask him to relate what Gregg to say. Mr. George favored the resolution, as did most persons present. George Also Says Gregg Said It. Cleveland, April 9, '29. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gillette, Cleveland, O. Dear Mr. Smith.—In answer to my question, I have a telephone, today, with reference to statements made by Dr. E. J. Gregg, I wish to advise that I was present at a meeting where a proposed resolution of Rev. Russell Brown was being discussed. This resolution in substance asked for an investigation on the part of the City Council of the City Hospital with reference to equal opportunities being furnished to the nurses' nurses and interns. According to my best recollection, Dr. Gregg said that the American Association of Nurses of New York and Philadelphia objected to the training of white and colored nurses in the same hospital, and because of the attitude of the American Nurses' Association he thought the resolution was untimely. He further said that if colored nurses were employed by the Royal Hospital would destroy the morale of and affect seriously the services rendered there, and for that reason he was opposed to the placing of colored nurses in the City Hospital. Dr. Gregg further said that he did not believe that this would be true with reference to colored internes. He was also opposed to the resolution because he felt that more could be accomplished by working quietly than by giving publicity to it. Hoping this may give you the information desired, I remain, Gregg's reasons for opposing the admission of our girls in the nursing school at the City Hospital are simply ridiculous and a rank insult to all of our people of this community. —Editor GO BACK "HOME" GREGG! Councilman E. J. Gregg is opposed to our people exercising their citizen rights in a public institution supported by the taxpayers of the community, among whom we number thousands, because organized prejudiced white nurses "would not work with our nurses," he says, and because "forcing our girls into the City Hospital nurse-school might disrupt the morale of the entire hospital," he continues. Now, really can you believe that a sure member of the race, a doctor and a city councilman, too, could possibly deliver himself, in this day and time and in this city, of such rot, and, too, in the presence and hearing of white colleagues, members of the Cleveland City Council? O, Lord God of Hosts, have mercy! "We should worry" whether prejudiced white nurses worked with ours or not, and whether "the morale of the entire City Hospital" was "disrupted" or not! As far as the former are concerned, "we don't give a darn", and as for the latter, if any persons are to worry about that "morale" let the public's servants in charge of City Hospital, who are paid by the taxpayers thousands of whom are our people, do it. And we are not so sure there would be any, when those nurses or others at the hospital, who are prejudiced, were told they could stay or go, as they saw fit. Why is Gregg so anxious' to please prejudiced persons, even to the extent of denying his own people their citizen rights in that public institution? Is the man bereft or what in the world is the matter with him? One thing sure, he is in the wrong city and state with such "down home" stuff in his mind and should "up stakes" and hurry on back to "dear old Tennessee" or wherever in the South he came from. He is more than fifty years behind the times, for this section of the moral vineyard. Go back South, Gregg! And for God's sake and that of your own people of this city, at least, stay there until you can "take that red bandanna off your head". Here, you are in the way and trying to "block the runways". GREGG'S LATEST HOSPITAL IDEA! Addressing the Baptist Ministers' meeting, April 15, Councilman E. J. Gregg is said to have announced that he was not now advocating a "jim-crow" hospital for this city, but one on the East-side of the city, the majority of its official personnel (those in charge of it) to be "Negroes". Such an institution would do the same harm that a "jim-crow" hospital would, because ALL "Negro" patients that went to the other hospitals in the city, as they do now, would be sent to Gregg's "makeshift" institution, and that would rob our people of the right to enter the other hospitals as they do now. Then, too, there is no need of such a half or two-thirds "jim-crow" institution, since "Negro" patients in this community are being better cared for now than they could possibly ever hope to be in a "hospital" such as Gregg advocates for the selfish purpose of getting a few jobs for "jim-crow Negroes", physicians and others, who do not seem to be able to make a good living otherwise. Is this the thing that City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins and Councilman Gregg have been "rubbing noses or heads" over for the past year or so? We want to know! Cleveland will never start or maintain such an unnecessary thing. Let the "jim-crow Negroes", physicians and others, do it if they can. There will be no objection to their having such a private institution. Why don't they go in back "down home" and revel in "jim-crow" hospitals and about everything else. They are making nuisances of themselves here, trying to not only impede our peoples' progress in this community but positively trying to make them retrograde. Shame! BROWN AND GEORGE ARE NOT LIARS! Our local contemporary, quotes Councilman E. J. Gregg as saying, last week, in reference to what Councilmen Russell S. Brown and Clayborne George say he said at that caucus of Republican members of the Cleveland City Council, several weeks ago, referred to on page 4 of this paper: "Did you make such a statement? Gregg was asked", said our local contemporary, last week. "No, that's a damned lie", replied Gregg, according to said contemporary. Rev. Dr. R. S. Brown, pastor of Mt. Zion Congregational church, and Atty. Clayborne George, councilmanic colleagues of Gregg, say he did say it, that they distinctly heard him, and have sent letters to that effect to The Gazette which we published, last week, and give again, this week, for the express purpose of combating just such a statement as Gregg is credited with by our local contemporary. Now then what sort of man is this Dr. E. J. Gregg, councilman, that he uses such language in referring to the truthful statements of his colleagues of color, one of whom is a Christian minister? And we understand that Gregg is a member of Zion Hill Baptist church. What must its members and his constituents and the public think of him? To another question, Gregg is quoted as saying: "H—ll, not!" Well, well, WELL! Isn't that and his other reply (above) awful? What say you, Rev. Dr. C. C. Aller, pastor of Zion Hill Baptist church? Will the members of your congregation "church" Gregg? Brown and George sure have their colleague of color in a hole and a big one, too. But that is not a "marker" to what his constituents will do to him, if he has the temerity to be a candidate for re-election, this fall. Goodbye! Gregg. Harry C. Smith Attention! Readers! Our advertisers want your trade. Those who do not ask for it in the columns of "The Old Reliable" Gazette certainly care little, if at all, for it. Therefore, we urge our readers and all of our friends to patronize those who ask in this paper for your patronage. Editor. The Truth! What would cause other people to grish their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for them. Kick us, beowus, pile depredations upon us, revile us, abuse us, lie about us, malign us and even impugn our valor and we are not unanimously insulted. It seems impossible to establish unanimity of insult in the black race.—Chicago (Ill.) Whitp. GOLD Cleveland, Ohio Aug. 28th, 1925. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and if possible smite it. You and if possible smite it during the forty-two years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNeils, but when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.) 25¢ —is the right price to pay for a good tooth paste— LISTERINE TOOTH PASTE Large Tube 25¢
