What would cause other people to gnash their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, 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.) Whip. It is with the keenest regret that the Gazette announces the most reprehensible course our three councilmen, George, Payne and Bundy, have pursued in the "Blossom" controversy which was apparently closed with City Manager Daniel E. Morgan's appointment, on Monday evening, Feb. 17, '30, of Dudley S. Blossom as associate director or fourth term of two years each. Thruout the campaign, last fall, our people smarting under his insulting and gross mistreatment demanded the ousting of Director Blossom who for more than five years had barred our boys and girls from training in the City Hospital and added to this flawrant and unwarranted denial of our rights and privileges under the law in a public institution, maintained by the taxpayers of the community, by coercement of the leading men in the race who called upon him relative to the matter: "No! I am not going to allow Negro boys and girls to train in the City Hospital while I am director." The mandate to oust Director Blossom was given George, Payne and Bundy, particularly, in unmistakable language by our people in their councilmanatee jobs. Just that Tuesday countermidnight after night and day after day, as they pleaded with the voters in that section of the city for support of their candidacies reiterated their promise to do all in their power to accede to the demand of our people whom I had so grossly mistreated. for the ousting of City kins was equalled and surpassed the demands of our own people for the Welfare Director Dudley Blossom. There can be no question as to this. Night after night and day after day in one political meeting after another, they promised the people, if elected, they would carry out this mandate to the letter. How have they done this? Soon after the election of City Manager Daniel E. Morgon, rumors were being circulated to the effect that our three councilmen, in their quest for political jobs for some of their supporters, were weakening in their opposition to the appointment of Blossom at the behest of the city manager who desired, with Blossom's appointment, to some appease the public by appeasing the local Proactive Government bloc with which Blossom was identified and to whose campaign funds he contributed liberally. Fearing this very thing and endeavoring to make the situation clear to the city manager, as far as the masses of our people in this community are concerned, we sent him the following special delivery letter: Cleveland, O., Jan. 29, '30. City Manager Daniel E. Morgan, City Hall, City. My Dear Mr. Morgan:—It may be that you have quite forgotten me, but will recall the writer when rem- inded of the assistance rendered you when a candidate for the coun- cil in our ward, many years ago. I am writing you at this time for the purpose of entering a vigorous protest against the reappointment of Dudley Blossom as director of welfare in your cabinet. Last year and the year previous, he so frequently and so grossly insulted members of my race who called upon him in connection with the City Hospital controversy, which was happily settled, Monday, Jan. 27, '30, that his reappointment would be positively the most aggravating insult you could give all of my people of this community, and for reasons stated and others. Also I wish to say to you that Councilmen Payne, Bundy, Bronstrup and Finkle were elected in the Third District upon the platform of ousting both Hopkins as city manager and Dudley Blossom as welfare director. With no desire to dictate, but only to state the real truth of the situation as far as my people of this community and Dudley Blossom are concerned, and with sincerest best wishes for your official success, I am Yours respectfully. P. S.—Councilman Clayborne C. George of the Fourth District was re-elected on the platform of ousting Hopkins and Blossom. H. C. S. On the morning of Jan. 30, '30, the following day, the city manager, thru his private secretary, requested a conference with us at the city hall THEY "WAIVED" THEIR OPPOSITION! E. L. H. which was held between 11 and 12 A. M., that Thursday morning. At this conference it early developed, much to my surprise, that the rumors were well founded. Mr. Morgan's fulsome praise of the three "Negro" councillmen, and other things he said in confidence, forced me to give enhancement to the rumors much as I disliked and didn't want to do so. After hearing my protest to the appointment of Blossom, which I made just as strong as possible and the real conditions warranted, I concluded by saying to him: "You can spit in my face now, Mr. Morgan, and you will not insult me and my people of this community one hour before as you will by appointing Dudley J. Blossom, welfare director". He stood a moment as if staggered and then for the third time during our conference asked me to confer with Blossom, adding that he would like very much if I would do so. For the third time, I refused to do so, saying that I did not know Mr. Blossom, had never met him, would not know him if I were to meet him face to face, and never wanted to know the man because for years, by his refusal to permit our boys and girls to train in the City hospital and make handling language in connection with this refusal, he had held my people up as pariahs, and open to the ridicule of thousands of persons of other groups in this community. While the conference was in progress, his secretary said to Mr. Morgan: "Mr. Blossom is outside". 1 mission of his granddaughter to the City hospital nurses' training school. Both Hopkins and Blossom turned him (Bailey) down flat, on more than one occasion. He was a remember that one of Dr. Bailey's treasuring visits to Blossom, he came IS IT ANY USE TO CON- TEND, FOR, RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination and are winning social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say. "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without subjective and have no 'guys.'" The world responds only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Boston (Mass.) Guardian. --- to The Gazette office and talked of his miserable experience—insults and coarse mistreatment. The recital was enough to bring tears to one's eyes. From Jan. 29, '30 until this week inclusive, scores of letters from individuals and resolutions from various local organizations of color have been sent by our people and others to City Manager Morgan, protesting as vigorously as possible the appointment of Blossom. The announcement in a number of our meetings last day, on a post mass meeting task to be held at Triedstone Baptist church, this coming Sunday, at 3 P. M., undoubtedly precipitated the appointment of Blossom which was hurriedly made, Monday evening, as stated in the foregoing. During the morning of that day, the city manager thru a city official who held a conference with George, Payne and Bundy, late Monday afternoon, "checked up" on our three members of the city council. The result was undoubtedly convinced from his viewpoint because the Blossom was soon after, that same event. After the "check up" meeting, Councilmen the "Gazette office. The former, as usual, be very reticent whenever the Blossom appointment was mentioned, which of course, convinces me now that he as well as his two colleagues are guilty, as a subsequent event has proven. Tuesday, just before noon, Councilman Bundy came to The Gazette office and after a few minutes' conversation, he said his two colleagues in his ears, that he was a one-term councilman; that the people of his district would see to this, next year, beyond a shadow of a doubt. It was suggested to Mr. George, the evening before, that in all probability he was serving his last term in the council for the very same reason. Our thinking, sensible, self-respecting voters of the third and fourth councilmanic districts will hardly continue, as members of the city council, men of our or any other class who will hold positions in the council, constituents to oust a public official whose City hospital Ku Klux Klan activities made him a "stench in their nostrils". City Manager Daniel E. Morgan claims that our three councilmen, George, Payne andundy, "waved" their opposition to SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS 468 123456789 the appointment of Dudley Blossom. The "waiving" decision undoubtedly was concluded at the "check-up" meeting, late Monday afternoon. What a "waiving" it will be, next year in the fall time, when these two men will all of them last that long! It sure will be an event worth going miles to see, and our city manager will not be forgotten, either, when the opportunity affords. Another thing Dudley Blossom said to a delegation of our people who called upon him, last year, and protested against the city departments, particularly the City hospital, is very true. It is this: "When you people can impress the people of this community that you are worthy of more consideration, you will get it, and not until then." This explains in a few words why we failed to secure the ousting of that individual (Blossom)—our people's representatives in the city council did not, as ordered by them, take action against Morgan with their unalterable opposition to the appointment of Dudley Blossom. Instead, they "waived" their opposition, not ours, and Manager Morgan knows this. His promises to them of three small jobs, one in the office of the city Civil Service commission, another in that of the city treasury, and the third in the city clerk's office, does not in the slightest atone for the miserable insult he has given us in re-appointment to Blossom as after director, in the face of all of our protests. Our self and race-respect means far more to us than jobs, large or small, few or many, Mr. Morgan! Harry C. Smith. The Tradesmen Club's Protest. The protest meeting held, Monday evening, by the Tradesmen's club, Mr. Emmett Meads, press., was a grand success—large attendance and unbounded enthusiasm in the movement to oust Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom, whose Ku Klux Klan activities for nearly six years, in barring our boys and girls from school, were known to our people throughout the city. The speaker of the evening was Mr. Roy S. Rector, vice-president and general manager of The Middle Western Mutual Insurance Association, and president of the Laymen's League. Mr. Rector took as his theme Blossom's notorious statement that: "No! Negro boys and girls will not be allowed to train in City Hospital as long as I am welfare director", and in discussing it explained fully, yet concisely, the strong resentment toward Blossom which exists among our people of this city. At the conclusion of Mr. Rector's address, the following resolutions were submitted to the league, unanimously adopted and sent to the same ordered sent to City Manager Daniel E. Morgan, the local daily and weekly newspapers. The Resolutions Whereas, Dudley S. Blossom, as Director of Welfare, not only led in the barring of our boys and girls from training in the City Hospital, but was so aggravatingly insulting in his personal contact with several individuals and delegations of our leading men who called upon him, to connect with this hospital controversy, very offensively saying to at least one of them: "No, I am not going to allow Negro boys and girls to train at City Hospital", therefore be it resolved, that since the Walz resolution adopted unanimously by the Cleveland City Council, several weeks ago, plainly stipulates that "such opportunity shall in no event be dented or abridged on account of the race or color of anyone seeking such training"; we call upon City Manager Daniel E. Morgan to replace Director of Welfare Dudley S. Blossom with more offensive manpower and more newspapers. Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be furnished City Manager Daniel E. Morgan and the local daily and weekly newspapers so that the 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 compari-son with any will immediately estab-lish its rank as one of the NEWBIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans.

S. Supreme Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes was confirmed, 2 to 1, by the U. S. Senate, last week Thursday night, as chief justice of the U. S.

Brookhart of Iowa, Republican progressive, who fought confirmation of Hughes, deplored the fact that "political machines, ruled by great corporations, are selecting the justices now", and declared he was ready to offer a constitutional amendment to take away from the Supreme Court the power to set aside legislative entitlements.

THE MORGANS DISAGREE. City Manager Daniel E. Morgan on Monday, disapproved the City Council legislation to pay Garrett A. Morgan $2,000 for his heroism in saving lives at the city water crib disaster in 1916. This he did on the recommendation of Asst. City Law Director Alfred Clum, who in turn was in all probability largely influenced in reaching his decision by Mayo Fessler, secretary of the Citizens' League, who has been an aggressive opponent of the city's doing its long belated and clear duty to G. A. Morgan ever since the movement to get such recognition for him was started. Several other persons, all white, who only assisted G. A. Morgan in the rescue, were given financial recognition and medals, etc. by the Carnegie Hero Commission, years ago, while he slept on his rights in the face of the writer's urging that he be active in an effort to get them. It's only fair to Garret A. Morgan to say that he was depending upon white friends to do this, which of course they did not, and now through City Manager Morgan the door to rightful recognition (even though a mere pittance of $2000) is slammed in G. A. Morgan's face by our new city manager who like Clum has undoubtedly been misled by Fessler and others who really do not know the facts, or ignore them. It was just two years ago that Councilman E. J. Gregg, who had been elected by our people as an Independent Republican, voted for a Democrat (white) in preference to one of his own people for member of the City Civil Service Commission. At the time The Gazette informed Dr. Gregg that he was a one-term councilman. He didn't believe it and endeavored to ridicule the statement. Late Monday afternoon, Councilman George, Bundy and Payne "waived" THEIR (but not our) opposition to the appointment of Director of Welfare Dudley S. Blossom, so City Manager Daniel E. Morgan has announced. Right there and then, George, Payne and Bundy pulled "a Gregg", because they had received a gregg from our people of the third and fourth councilman districts, who elected them, to do all in their power to bring about the ousting of Welfare Director Blossom whose Ku Klux Klan treatment of our people in the City Hospital controversy is too well-known among us to need comment at this time. What our people will do to our three councilmen, next year, should they have the temerity to again stand as candidates, it is not necessary to consult a prophet nor a son of a prophet to learn, in the light of Excouncilman Gregg's experience as a result of his turning his back on his people, especially his constituents. The only difference is, that what our three councilmen have just done is more flagrant! They forgot all about their promises, made the people during the campaign last fall, and "laid down" supinely at the feet of Dud Blossom, city welfare director, who said, last year: "No! I am not going to allow Negro boys and girls to train in the City Hospital". LORD. HAVE MERCY! PULLED "A GREGG". One Ralph J. Donaldson, a local political writer, had an "inspired" article in a local daily newspaper, Monday morning, which was simply a prelude to the most insulting appointment, that evening, of Dudley S. Blossom as welfare director of the City of Cleveland. Donaldson's article was intended to help pave the way for City Manager Daniel E. Morgan's appointment and was also intended to help to do the impossible "save the faces" of Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy who in their zeal for jobs for some of their constituents had decided to "ditch" the mandate of our voters of their districts who secured their triumphant election, last fall. The mandate of our people of the third and fourth districts, that they do everything in their power as councilmen to help bring about the ousting from office of City Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom, they had decided to ignore; in plain words, "ditch". Donaldson's article makes very clear the reasons for this. They sought the manager's favor for the appointment of three members of the race to minor positions in the office of the City Civil Service commission, the City Treasury and City Clerk, as well as minor appointments in the welfare department. For these reasons, according to Donaldson, they were willing to subordinate our self and race-respect and the mandate of their constituents by "walving" their (not our) opposition to the appointment of Director Blossom. Donaldson's statement in his article to the effect that "there has been considerable opposition from the colored group to the retention of Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom in City Manager Daniel E. Morgan's cabinet because of widely circulated reports that there have been fewer employees in the welfare department than in other departments", and that "the appointments of colored employees in the clerk's and treasurer's office are expected to allay much of the resentment", falls far short of the mark. In the first place, the strong and unalterable opposition to Blossom upon the part of our people of this community was not because of the lack of our employees in the welfare department or anywhere else, but for other and more important reasons; nor will this "resentment" be "allayed" in the least by the promises or giving of a few minor jobs in the departments named or others. The opposition to Blossom's appointment was based solely on his denial for years of citizen rights and privileges in the City hospital and the miserable treatment and insulting language visited upon those of the race who were so unfortunate as to have called upon him in connection with said denial of rights and privileges in a public institution "The three colored councilmen have had several conferences with Blossom", wrote Donaldson. No doubt of it! But the conferences were not only for the discussion of the appointment of "additional colored employees in the welfare department" and "whether colored nurses and doctors are to be appointed to the staff of City Hospital". As we said in the beginning, we say now, because it is true: City Manager Morgan and City Director of Welfare Blossom, have been in repeated conferences in recent weeks with our three councilmen with a view to inducing them to "ditch" the mandate they were given, last fall, by our voters of their districts, and that was to do everything in their power to assist in ousting Dudley S. Blossom from office. MRS. ALICE RHINELANDER Has Received An Offer From Kip and May Accept It—Divorced in Nevada But Still Married in New York State. New York City—Whether or not Alice Beatrice Jones Rhinelander will accept the latest ultimatum from her husband, Leonard Kip Rhinelander, is debatable, according to her attorney. Kip makes an offer, through her attorney, from Las Vegas, Nevada, at one-third of his income if Alice will drop his name. Mrs. Rhinelander's counsel says that this will be done only if the "one-third" amounts to a sufficient sum. The ultimatum from Nevada further states that unless Alice does drop the name Rhinelander, the monthly check of $22 will be stopped. This cannot be done because Kip has property in N. Y. State which his wife can attach. Recognize Our Doctors and Nurses. New York City—The most decisive step thus far taken in any city of the U. S. for the recognition and giving of opportunity to our doctors and nurses, is in Harlem Hospital here, where there has been a sweeping reorganization of the medical board and the ousting of twenty-three white and two colored physicians. The thirteen members of the surgical division of the new medical board of the hospital, ordered by Dr. J. O. Greeff, commissioner of hospitals, include seven of our surgeons and the secretary of the newly organized board of Harlem hospital, is New York's first Afro-American police department surgeon.

Godfrey Only Can Stop Him. New York City — A George Godfrey- frey-Priro Carnera battle here shortly is anticipated as a result of the application of Madison Square Garden for reinstatement of Godfrey by the Pennsylvania boxing commission. The real champion heavyweight is one of the few heavy- weights considered the best in the giant pugilist, by the state commission. Godfrey, who was suspended after a quarrel with the Pennsylvania com- 10 mission which has a working agreement with the New York athletic body, is some giant himself, the tallest, biggest and best American fighter. It is said the Garden management believes a Godfrey-Carnera bout would set a new record for indoor attendance. No doubt of it. Italian Sidesteps George. Because of Carnera's penchant for books a Philadelphia writer (white, 88yrs.) "As a matter of fact, there is just one man in the ring today physically equipped to contest with Carrera. We refer to George Godfrey, the gigantic Afro-American, who is managed by Jimmy Dougherty, Godfrey may be an inch or so shorter than the weight a few pounds lighter, would more than neutralize these physical handicaps by his superior boxing skill. Promoters, however, have not even made a gesture toward matching these two—not because they would not like to stage such a natural, but because they know that the wise men managing Carrera would not accept, such a match even though it were extended to them on a golden platter studded with diamonds. One can scarcely believe that Godfrey doesn't need to be the consensus that if the wraps were off Godfrey, Primo would probably not be among those present after a couple of rounds. Very well. If not Gonfrey, why not one of the other giants? Here in Philadelphia is one Ace Clark, another warrior of color who towers well over six feet and weighs about 230 to 235. Furthermore, he knows something about boxing. True, we have heard that he doesn't want to. Perhaps Carrera is another wily wilts under punishment. How in the world is anybody to know until the Latin is matched with somebody who will hit him?"

Says Dr. Wembridge of Juvenile Court—Also Our Local Federation of Women's Clubs. Friendiness in Court. "The colored cases handled in Juvenile Court are, almost without exception, Protestant. The foreignborn women come to Protestant Catholic countries or from Jewish communities and are invariably looked after by neighborhood organizations, but the colored girl is practically friendless when she comes to court. She is accompanied only by her mother, whose presence is required by law. The girl is never Jewish and hardly ever Catholic, so the Catholic and Jewish charity organizations are closed to her as sources of aid. I am not it. Protestant aid for such a girl.

For these one-piece utility and travel models the princess silhouette is playing up simplicity to a compelling degree of smartness. The "lines" of the dress pictured are ultra-modish. While the general impression of this frock is that of utmost simplicity, in final analysis of color, weave, contour and style details, its sophistication is very apparent. Beige printed crepe is the chosen fabric for this dress. This is one of the very new prints which gives such a conservative tweedlike and a street-like appearance rather than a boldly patterned effect. Note how the designer has contrived to subtly gain fullness for the skirt, maintaining a fitted princess effect for the top, Then, too, the way the hemline drops ever so gradually toward the back, also the fact of the hemline being longer but not too long, evidences the voguishness of this frock. Dark brown kid pumps and a dark brown hat contribute an effective note in the color scheme. An outstanding style detail in this costume is the scarf which is related in color and texture to the dress. It is not a separate scarf bought casually without reference to 'an ensemble NEW HATS CONVEY OF FLATTERING HEAR the glad tidings, who who have long suffered the unbecomingness of the brimless chapeau—brims are "in" again! To be sure, southern resort millinery has already conveved the message of brims to the world of fashion, but the news bears repeating—brims are "in" again! The illustration might well be captioned "a study in brims," for it presents diverse types which are significant of that which now is and is to be in way of brimmed chapeaux. A theme which will be played "with variations" by the milliner for spring and summer is the ever youthful and flattering cloche. An outstanding type is the cloche with the ripple brim, two versions of which are shown at the top of this group to the left. There is another little cloche in this collection to which we would like to call your attention. It is sketched to the left in the third row below. Note its plaited sides and observe also that it tits up just enough to reveal the forehead, which is a characteristic of the majority of 1930 cloques—to be brow revealing. A flower posed under the brim, next to the face (see the sketch to the right at the top), is one of the "sweetly feminine" touches in promise for the near future. The frilled brim, a suggestion of which is given by the hat to the left in the second row, is down on the list of the new silhouettes. Beiting rib Don't T But Give it theme. In reality, it is the latest thing in scarf treatments, in that it is made of the crepe of the dress, however in a darker brown. This scarf's special claim to swank is its gay colored striped bordering. The cuffs of the frock are made of the same bordering. Spring fabric showings place special emphasis on both bordered silks and bordered lightweight woolens. To the stylist these very colorful borderings are proving an incentive to create very interesting and very designful costumes. Not only daytime dresses exploit borders, but beach costumes and the costume blouse are made of fanciful bordered materials. An outcome of this flair for gally bordered effects, is the clever ensemble sets consisting of hat, scarf and handbag made of novelty woven worsteds which flaunt striking borders. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. @ 1330 Western Newpaper Union.) THE MESSAGE BRIMS TO MILADY bon, taffeta faille and handkerchief felt are worked in this way. Next to the frilled brim is a dashing off-the-face type, often reproduced in satin, and just as often in some one or other of the voguish linenlike straws. Brims of lace straw are a smart new item, the hat to the right of the off-the-face model just described, being a charming exponent. Semitransparent brims, worked with maline or sheer crin, together with felt, fabric, or straw as per the cunning poke bonnet centered below, offer new and novel treatments. Supple linelike straw bodies manipulated like felt are especially stressed in all millinery collections. The model to the right, next to the last sketch, illustrates the idea. The final brim displays a unique shirred effect, for both shirring and pinn tucks play an important part in fabric or felt manipulation.

Bernice Claire got the idea and had a radio equipped on her dashboard. The loudspeaker is overhead. The dials are arranged in harmony with the regular dashboard mechanism. AUTO OPERATION DURING WINTER AUTO OPERATION DURING WINTER Some Care on Part of Owner Will Help Starting and Car Itself. While an engine does not start as easily in low temperature as in the summer, a little care on the part of the owner will go a long way toward facilitating starting and improving the car's performance generally. The principal parts which have a direct bearing on the starting of an engine are: Battery, starting motor, carburetor, spark plugs, ignition system and valves. Battery Efficiency. As the efficiency of the battery is materially reduced in cold weather, it should be given great consideration. If the electrical system is weak, complete combustion cannot be obtained, therefore, it is good preventive insurance to have some reputable electrical service station check over these items. The starting motor seldom causes trouble. The carburetor must be correctly adjusted and choke and throttle controls connected properly. The spark plugs are equipped with two electrodes set in such a manner that the electric current must jump across a small gap from one to the other. In making this jump, a spark occurs. It is this spark that ignites the mixture of gasoline and air in the combustion chamber of the cylinder. The size of the gap between the electrodes affects the type of spark produced. It is, therefore, important that this gap should be inspected for proper adjustment, and all spark plugs examined. Check Ignition System. The ignition system, including all wiring and terminals should be checked, particular attention being paid to the distributor timing and to condition of the contact points. If the valves do not seat properly, a leakage of compression occurs resulting in incomplete combustion which hinders starting and also tends to foul the spark plugs. Grinding Car Valves Is Task for Garage Man In grinding automobile valves it is necessary to use both coarse and fine grinding compound. A grinding tool makes the job an easy one, but in many cases the job can be done by putting a fine spring under the valve and rotating with a screwdriver. The valves should be ground until it has a bright strip at least 1-16 of an inch all around the valve seat. The coarse compound should then be removed and the fine material used to smooth up the job. This should be carefully washed off with kerosene. Be sure that the valve stem works easily in the guide. After the valves of a car are ground and the car is put together again, the proper clearance or timing of the valves should be secured by adjusting valve tappets according to directions accompanying the motor. This is a job that can best be done by a garage man who has tools, etc., for this job. Ordinarily valves do not need grinding oftener than once a season. Balloon Tires Displace High-Pressure Variety From 1923 to 1929 is only six years, but in tires it is millions and millions different. In 1923, for instance, there were 14,455,174 high-pressure fabric tires manufactured. In 1929, only 20,674 such tires were produced. In 1923 there were no balloon tires made. Six months of 1929 found 25,054,579 manufactured. The presence of so many lower-priced cars which were fitted for that type of tire has kept the high-pressure cord production level fairly constant for six years. But this year, with all equipped with balloons, that type also is beginning to disappear. Q. How many truck drivers are there in the United States? Ans. 1,500,000. Q. Can an oil filter be installed on a car not originally equipped with it? Ans. As a rule, yes. Q. What are some causes of an engine overheating? Ans. Lack of water or poor circulation, late ignition timing and air leaks in the intake manifold. Q. How many persons are employed in the automotive industry in the United States? Ans. 4,341,000. Simple Hood Rest When Mechanical Work Needed The illustration shows an easy way to make a rest for the hood when it is opened.

At least two hood rests will be required, one on each side; some hoods will require four—Popular Science Monthly. Provide Warm Covering For Radiator in Winter Putting antifreeze in the engine's cooling system is absolutely imperative when the temperature drops. However, there is a way of carrying heat, hurricane that is almost as essential; namely, providing some covering for the radiator that will cut the blast of cold air thrown over the engine. Antifreeze will keep the cooling system from freezing, but it will not keep the engine from running too cool, one of the most prolific causes of serious engine maladies. AUTOMOBILE HINTS Worn-out spark plugs cause hard steering, excessive drain on the battery, increased gasoline consumption and generally poor engine performance. Is there anything more irritating to one's esthetic sensibilities than the traffic officer who makes out your ticket with a dull stump of a lead pencil? Cincinnati, Ohio, has a city ordinance which forbids speed of more than four miles an hour for motor vehicles entering or leaving garages and alleys. Suburbs in Paris, France, have road signs upon which pictures are displayed as well as printed warnings. The scenes are of special benefit to motorists who do not understand the French words. A PROTEST RESOLUTION. At a largely attended meeting, Sunday afternoon, the Laymen's League of Cuyahoga County, the following protest resolution was unanimously adopted and a copy of it for the public to see. Morgan, and the local daily and weekly newspapers: We, the Laymen's League of Cuyahoga County, representing a large portion of law-abiding and respectable citizens of this city and surrounding areas, have career while rendering service in A. DUDLEY S. BLOSSOM several capacities in this city, do not feel that you would retain any one in your cabinet who is unjust and unfair to any group of people. Some time ago a committee of colored citizens called on the Director of Public Welfare, Mr. Dudley S. Blossom, in regard to colored nurses and internes being trained in the City Hospital. We quote his statement to said committee: "As long as I am director of public welfare, no Negro boy or girl will be trained in the City Hospital. We will broadcast, and voiced his attitude toward our group during the years of his administration. Therefore, he it resolved: That the Laymen's League of Cuyahoga County voicing the sentiment of a number of civic, political and religious organizations of this city as well as its own, do protest and respectfully request that Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom be removed from your cabinet. Signed: R. S. Rector, Pres., Louie Williams, Sec., E. A. Bailey, M.D., H. L. Taylor, MERITED PRAISE Of Editor Wendell Phillips Dabney's Splendid Work, "Cincinnati's Colored Citizens"—Out of "Home, Sweet Home" means something to Wendell P. Dabney, veteran editor of the Cincinnati Union (412 McAllister St., Cincinnati, O.) and public-spirited citizen for many years of Cincinnati, chief metropolis of southern Ohio, Mr. Dabney has taken the time, the care, and the effort necessary to produce a book that will help explain and the achievements of "Cincinnati's Colored Citizens", because says Mr. Dabney, "such information, I felt, would go far to eradicate much of the prejudice against us that owes its origin to the ignorance or superficial knowledge of our white citizens". "Further on, in his book," the author says, "I have strained fay from the museum stereotyped historical volume in ef forts to show the soul as well as the body of a people who are so little known, so little understood and for so many years so much oppressed because of such misunderstanding" Thereafter follows more than four hundred pages of absorbing facts, opinions, and descriptions, historical and otherwise, of the development of the Colored wing of Cincinnati from "prehistoric-times" to date. The advancement of the Cincinnati Negro, as described by Dabbs, is indeed amazing; and it is only upon being amazed, and with proofs of the race's growth, not only in Cincinnati, but everywhere, that we can fully appreciate the silver lining of the cloud which has hovered over us for so long. From slavery to complete and composite representation in every activity of a great American city is the answer Cincinnati has made to the challenge of the "supremists". So has New York, Chicago, Kansas City, Atlanta and every other urban center. Given a full chance, the Negro has made full a chance, given half a chance, he has made half a chance, given no chance, he has made half advances. This is the answer to the serfdom of the South, and it will prove itself decade after decade, generation after generation. Wendell Phillips Dabney, has done his city, his state, his people, the nation and himself a signal honor by publishing his worthy volume, "Cincinnati's Colored Citizens", which may be profitably read, not only by Ohioans, but by the world.—Pittsburgh Courier.

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder-Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race-Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mo-violence or anti-lynching 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 was the first to establish the mutuality of the law, and it has been Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damage recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278.

An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 163 1.) Section 6289. This chapter shall 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. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights Law. Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed $10,000, for ages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall 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, and share alike, the widow receiving such share. If there be no widow or minor 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. Such sum so recoverable from such injury of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. 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 person. He or his legal representatives Section 6284. 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 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to inquire into the case of the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) 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 seriously injured by a mob from any other county, such as 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 from such county for safekeeping, from such county for contraband, or 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 in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 3) 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 northern 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: OBJS. read. representative of victim of lynching. try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. must member of mob. must another county. Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynchings from prosecution 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. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enforced 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, and amenities shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars imprisoned not less than thirty days nor 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 hundred 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 our people will not be often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. "The Old Reliable" Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents. Only a little time on Fridays or Saturdays is required to make some money. We are especially desirous of hearing from persons in the following named cities: Springfield, Columbus, Toledo, Steubenville, Zanzville, Wellington, Xenia, Washington C. H. Wellington, Piqua, Lima, O., and other places, particularly in Ohio, where we have none. Write to the editor of The Gazette, 226 West Superior Ave., Cleveland, O., and terms will be sent promptly. Our readers will oblige us greatly by sending the addresses of persons in the cities named, and others in the state to whom we can write relative to the matter. PROTEST! PROTEST!! To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet must serve the law, and guillotines decide the law, least disputes. The few must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Something Wrong! There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to help relieve their own burdens. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't gain anything by fooling ourselves into thinking that everything is all right. Everything, affecting the lives of African Americans, is all wrong. The monster we have these facts, the quicker we will begin to work for our own salvation, the sooner we will attain our rightful place as American citizens. — Philadelphia Tribune.
