Thousands of Dollars Lost in the Newspaper Business the Main Cause of Their Trouble—Distressing Charges and Counter-Charges. Dr. and Mrs. O. A. Taylor's divorce and alimony suit, last week Tuesday and Wednesday, before Judge A. J. Pearson in Common Pleas Court, drew quite a crowd, Mrs. Cresta Taylor had the alimony suit, and Dr. Oliver Taylor countered with a petition for divorce. The former was the plaintiff and the latter defendant. Attys. Harry E. Davis and Selmo C. Glen represented Dr. Oliver Taylor, while Atty. Alex. H. Martin and John E. Rountree represented Mrs. Cresta Taylor. While on the witness stand, Dr. Taylor stated that their Crawford Rd. home, valued at $10,000, had mortgages on it aggregating between $6000 and $7000; that he owned five lots in Idlewild, Mich., had an annual income of between $4500 and $5000, and that he left Mrs. Taylor in 1929 without telling her of his intention because he did not want to "create any excitement or disturbance." Mrs. Taylor on the witness stand said that she paid $500 on the property in installments of $25 each, with money she made from the dispensary conducted in Dr. Taylor's office, having received all profits from same. When Dr. Taylor went West, last year, he left $75 with his lawyer to give to his wife, Mrs. Taylor wiring and telephoning various parts of the country and going to Chicago in search of him. Mrs. Taylor reading from figura had examined of her husband's office-record after he left her, stated that his income from January to early in July, 1929, was $4,332.05. It developed during cross examination that Mrs. Taylor's acquisition of control of The Cleveland Call was what not only broke the doctor financially, but really broke up their family relations. It was brought out that a note for $372.40 of the Press and Plate Co. against The Call, made while she was its manager and signed by her personally, had to be paid as the claim for his total losses as the result of his wife's newspaper experiences with The Call aggregated more than $8000. Dr. Taylor charged his wife with being vicious, extravagant, and said she would get mad and throw dishes on the floor; would not tell the truth, and was indiscreet. Mrs. Taylor countered while on the witness stand with the statement that the doctor had accused her of relations with other men, mentions local residents, more than a fourth person she refused to give, saying it might hurt his career because he was a young man trying to make a reputation. Dr. Taylor took the witness stand and denied having so charged Mrs. Taylor but added that she was indiscreet, referring to the fact that a prominent lawyer who had been his friend for thirty years was accustomed to call a lawyer's place where he would meet at least once, except holidays and Sundays, and remained with Mrs. Taylor until from four to five o'clock in the afternoon. He added that he did not think a small newspaper (The Call) would need the services of a lawyer that much; also that the lawyer was not receiving compensation for being there; that a check given the lawyer by Mrs. Taylor for 25 was not received; and that the lawyer assisted that the lawyer collect the amount, which he did not do. He also denied the charge of "consorting with certain women." Judge Pearson has not as yet announced his decision. King Tutt Lodge initiated thirty-one new members. March 22.

C. — President Hoover, last week teaching, adopted as his administrative policy the gradual withdrawal of the U. S. Marines from Haiti and the substitution of diplomatic relations for the present miserable military commission. The recommendations of the Forbes commission to this effect, the president of the provisional government, were accepted by the chief executive only two months after the appointment of the group to study U. S. policy in the island republic. With immediate withdrawal of the marines found inadvisable, the commission recommended gradual withdrawal in accordance with arrangements to be made before the advice of the president of the Haitian Garde. A minister would be assigned to Haiti to succeed Maj. Gen. John H. Russell, American high commissioner, "the Dictator," at the expiration of his tour of duty Russell's term is limited by the pleasure of the president, or by the treaty authorizing marine action which lapses in 1936. Also, under the advice of the minister would be charged with negotiating agreements "providing for less intervention in Haitian domestic affairs." The commission recommended that the detail of naval and marine officers for all Haitian services be made for a minimum of four years. Further, it recommended that "an effort be made to secure Americans who will agree to continue the war," so that upon the expiration of the treaty a force of American doctors, engineers, and police officers will be available for continued assistance to the Haitian government, should it then desire it."

APRIL 5, 1930. That portion of the City Charter which provides that councilmen must not interfere with city appointments is violated so often that it is a joke as a matter of fact, as Ralph J. Donaldson of The Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer well knows. When "The Blossom Triplets" named Col. Sidney B. Thompson as their first choice for appointment as superintendent of the garbage plant, week before last, they named Seth Nickens as their second choice, abandoning the Ormond Forte candidacy for the place. When the Republican leaders notified them of their acquiescence in the choice of Thompson, "The Blossom Triplets" backed down and again went to the support of the Forte candidacy. Forte hasn't a chance for the job, having nothing of a political nature to recommend him and entirely too much in condemnation of his candidacy. Wallace A. Stokes, a veteran of the World war and adjutant of Lemuel T. Boydston Post, American Legion, is the logical Afro-American for the place, because he has in his favor fourteen years' experience as an employee of the garbage plant, a number of these years, acting superintendent. "THE BLOSSOM TRIPLETS." The following is from Sunday's Cleveland and Daily Plain Dealer and is self-explanatory: "Harry C. Smith, veteran colored publisher, is conducting a relentless campaign against the three colored councilmen, Leroy N. Bundy, Clayborne George and Lawrence O. Payne. Every issue of Smith's paper, The Gazette, contains denunciation of the councilmen because they did not force city Manager Gwen McGregor to direct Director Dudley S. Blossom. Smith has been campaigning against Blossom because colored doctors and nurses were not permitted in City Hospital." "In every issue of the paper Smith refers to the councilmen as 'the Blossom triplets,' and accuses them of betraying their race for the sake of a few jobs. The last three bequeathed employees in the colored employees in the Civil Service Commission and the treasurer's office and also accuses them of holding up the appointment of a colored superintendent of the garbage plant by continuing to support Ormond Forte, now assistant superintendent, after Republican leaders, accuse Smith and that Accord will not appointed because he was allied with the Progressive Government Committee. "The city charter still contains a provision that councilmen shall not interfere in appointments, and Service Director Rees H. Davis said, yesterday, that he had no intention of removing A. M. Crutch as superintendent of the garbage plant." Ralph J. Donaldson, political writer for the Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer, very kindly calls the editor of The Gazette's attention to the fact that there is a provision in the City Charter which says that "councilmen shall not interfere in appointments," and yet "The Blossom Tripleta" (Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy) claim credit for securing the appointment of Harvey Atkins to a clerkship in the city clerk's office, L. L. Yancy (to be appointed) to a clerkship in the city treasurer's office, the appointment of a colored nurse in the City hospital, and have openly announced their endorsement of one Ormond Forte ("Negro") for superintendent of the garbage plant and have been working "over-time" for weeks in a vain effort to secure his appointment. "The Blossom Triplets" pledged voters of their districts, during the campaign last fall, to do all in their power to secure the ousting of City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins and City Welfare Director Dudley Blossom. They acknowledged the "mandate" from their constituents to do these very things, and yet, on the earnest solicitation of City Manager Daniel E. Morgan and Director Dudley S. Blossom "warned" their opposition to the latter's re-appointment by Morgan and broke faith with their constituents and the rest of the colored people of this community. If this is not the rankest of betrayals of their race in this community "for the sake of a few jobs," Mr. Donaldson will please tell us what is. "The Blossom Triplets" claimed to have been promised the Atkins clerkship in the city clerk's office, one in the city treasurer's office, and one in the office of the City Civil Service commission, as well as other jobs, and their endorsement of Forte for the superintendency of the garbage plant HAS held up for many weeks the appointment of Superintendent A. M. Crutch's successor. --- "The First Great American Actor!" Berlin, Germany,—Paul Robeson, taking the title role in Eugene O'Neill's "The Emperor Jones," is being hailed by German critics as "the first great American actor seen in Germany." The performance of the actor carried Berlin by storm, and an audience that included many famous German theatrical celebrities gave extravagant applause to Robeson. Sentenced to Chain Gang Winter Salem, N.C. — M. H. Powers, district attorney of the Communist party, has been sentenced to three months in the chain gang on a framed-up charge of "carrying concealed weapons." The real reason back of this charge is the militant fight put up by the Communist party for the unemployed. The southern bosses particularly resent the Communist demand for social equality for our people. "In Clover" Abroad Paris, France.—Joe Caulk and Kill Cole of Baltimore and George Archer of Chicago, who played many years at the Palmero, are at Cannes. Noble Sissle and his band are at Monte Carlo. "The Blackbird's" Orchestra, which played last year at the Moulin Rouge, is at Hotel Negresco. Nice. Albert Smith, painter and banjo artist, is playig at Cannes. Henry Crowder, formerly of "The Plantation," is playing in a cabaret near the Odeon, here. Cobb Decided a Case Against Blease. Washington, D. C.—Just ten days prior to the recent futile attempt of U. S. Senator Cole Blease of South Carolina to prevent the confirmation of Judge James A. Cobb as a judge of the municipal court of the District of Columbia. Cobb indluded a decision against the flery Senator, ordering him to pay on Mar. 21, '30, to the Industrial Loan Bank of South Carolina $186, with interest from March 4, 1925, and to pay the court costs. Racial Superiority a Myth. Memphis, Tenn.—That racial superiority is a myth was the opinion expressed by Rabbi Ferdinand Isserman of St. Louis in an address here, recently, before the Men's Club at Poplar Ave. Temple. "No race is superior to another," declared the speaker. "The difference between the barbaric races and the civilized races is not one of quality but of time. A race is not inferior, only backward, and the backward races of today may be the custodians of the culture and learning of the world tomorrow." In the recent trial of an action (to quiet the title to some valuable real estate) before Judge Fred H. Wolf of Napoleon who was sitting in our common pleas court on order of the state supreme court, Ex-State Senator John B.ohn and acquiring himself ready and trying and gaining his case, alone—without his client or any witness, Under Senator Green's objections the opposing party, with his attorney was in court, failed to answer any questions, was beaten and the judgment rendered for Mr. Green's client. In my sixty years' practice at the bar, I have never had such a unique, successful result, under similar circumstances," says the Senator. THREE BOYS NEED HOMES As a result of unemployment the Cleveland Humane Society has the largest number of children on its boarding list in its fifty-seven years of service, and unless it can move the children from boarding homes into permanent homes and make place for children from other areas, the organization is created for all the children's agencies. The Society is making a special effort to place a large number of boys and girls from 14 to 16 years old in normal, free and wage, family homes where they can earn a part or all of their board, and assist in their personal expenses. Among them are three promising boys of our race who need good homes where they may have opportunities for development. Edward, ambitious and dependable, shows marked mechanical ability, has managed a grocery store and is a good salesman. The lad is thrifty and is trying to save some money. Edward should be placed in the home of a mechanic or an in-home care provider when he himself in the boy's mechanical development. James, also age 16, is an ideal boy for a truck farm. At present he too is in Bedford in the first good home he has had. James needs a good, free or wage home in the first good home he can work under the supervision of an older man who will teach him. Harry, age 11, is a regular boy, affectionate, easy to manage, nice looking, strong and well. He is a favorite among his playmates and very dependable. Harry would adjust well in a small town or in a suburban locality where he can complete his education and assist himself. The Humane Society believes that there are intelligent, socially-minded people of our race who could open their homes to these boys to their own advantage as well as to the advantage of the boys, and by so doing give them a good home and an opportunity to help themselves.

A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. 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. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "serious imminent" for the purpose of the 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 and the assault or in any other manner, 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 not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood; or, in 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 five thousand dollars damage, may recover of the 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 then be distributed to the deceiving an amount equal to a child's 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 recovered 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 a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) 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 indemnify the county for 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. (983 162 9.9) Section 6287. The county, in which 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 of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a 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: BBS. and representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. must member of mob must another county. member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 y., 182 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, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 149) 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 which the editor had enforced while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Section 8240. However, being the proprietor of his house, the officer or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, 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 occupancy of the houses, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or 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 persecuted in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. --- This law was repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

BLOSSOM GOT BUSY! THE HOME OF THE WOMAN TOLL FRANCE PHOTO LITTLE folks coats "say it" with color this season. Whether the juvenile coat be of lacy tweed, of basket cloth or of flannel or a similarly smooth surface weave, color is the first consideration. Emphasis is placed first of all on lovely springlike green tones. Smart indeed is the coat of soft green cloth which is neatly tailored in the regulation style, with double-breast fastening, notched collar and self-fabric belt. Pastel tweed mixtures also are, favored media for these simply tailored coat models. These include yellow, rose, and blue effects, some of the weaves being lacy and light in weight. The coat in the picture departs ARTISTRY IN LAVIS DISTINGUISHED LACE, lace, lace and then some—speaking in regard to those exquisite intimate garments of the boudier, the lure of which no normal-minded woman can or even cares to resist. With all the lavishment of lace which goes to enhance lingerie and negligence types of the present mode, the fact is outstanding that quality is not sacrificed to quantity. For ordinary laces there seems no place in the scheme of boudir fashions. Even the laces on the less expensive garments are amazingly fine and lovely, while the higher priced garments are garnished with laces the beauty and finesse of which cannot be told in words. Not only does the loveliness of the laces employed call for admiration, but one is impressed with the artistry displayed in lace work as it enters into the creation of boudofr ensembles, of nightrobes and daytime negligues, of the new costume slips which after so long a time without lace are again lavishly lace-trimmed, and especially the cunning little ingenu dance sets which youth so adores. A fascinating story of lace is told in the picture berewth of a boudoir ensemble made of shell pink satin. The from the strictly tailored type in that it indulges in a collar whose widened tapels are bordered in two color effect. The body of this coat is of a navy and white tweed mixture, the channel bordering repeating these colors. A note of particular interest is the broad-brimmed hat which foretells a millinery trend which will be observed increasingly with the arrival of mild spring and summer days. This vogue for wide brims has revived interest in large picturesque leghorns for children, as well as shades of finest Milan straw. In regard to children's coats the mode is expressing itself in two directions; one which features, as already mentioned, the strictly tailored type usually double-breasted and with notched lapels. Every whit as important, however, are the new caped versions. Indeed, in discussing spring fashions for the younger generation, too much cannot be said on the subject of the coat with a cape. The princess silhouette offers still another angle in regard to stylish coats for young fashionables. Shallow capes which fill just over the shoulders vie with capes of waist-line depth. In fact, all sorts of cape variations enter into the junior coat mode. @ 1836, Western Newsagery Union. SH LACE WORK AS BOUDOIR MODES mellow-toned antique alencon lace which so generously borders its hemlines, is adroitly worked in, until it becomes a very part of its background. This method of cutting around the lace design, then inserting it into the silk or satin of the garment is a favorite treatment this season, and as the picture shows it is wonderfully effective. The long-coat pajama ensemble as here shown bepeaks that which is most chic and charming in lingerie modes. In fact the coat or jacket set is highly important in its varying moods and combinations such as the costume slip with its matching jacket or the sleeveless nightgown complemented with a bed jacket of self materials. The vogue for deeply toned laces in the lingerie realm is on the wane, according to latest word from Parisian style headquarters. Not that white laces have returned, but fancy is turning to laces of creamy and light belge tints. Pale rose belge and very light castor shades continue in vogue. There is also a growing tendency to tint the lace to match the fabric it trims. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (© 1930, Western Newspaper Union.)

When two motorists, driving at right angles to each other, meet at an intersection, some skillful blinding sometimes takes place. Frequently, the bolder of the two secures the right of way. Right-of-Way Law. Should a collision occur, however, courts in those states where the right-of-way law prevails will rule in favor of the vehicle approaching from the right, and against the car owner on the left, according to the law department of the Chicago Motor club, which declared that the courts hold the right right-of-way rule in high regard. Many states have incorporated this right-of-way regulation in their motor vehicle laws. The regulation provides, in substance, that motor vehicles traveling upon public highways shall give the right-of-way to vehicles approaching along intersecting highways from the right and shall have the right-of-way over those approaching from the left. This regulation does not apply, however, where main highways and secondary highways intersect, nor at the intersections of through streets and ordinary thoroughfares. The stop sign or other regulations in force at those points shall indicate the right-of-way. Excerpts From Decision. As an example of the manner in which courts decide right-of-way cases, the motor club law department cited excerpts from the decision of the Illinois Appellate court in the case of Johnson vs. Duke. A large touring car being driven east, according to the evidence, came to an intersection and collided with the left side of a truck being driven north. Part of the decision follows: "Under the circumstances appellee (the truck owner) had the right-of-way. While this right would not relieve him from the duty of exercising due care, he was entitled to assume that persons approaching on his left would observe the law and respect his right." Motor Bus Now Fixture On Streets of Warsaw Five years ago motor buses were a failure in Warsaw, Poland. During 1925 only 740,000 passengers were carried on all the lines, which had gradually dwindled in number since the establishment in 1920. Today Warsaw's new bus system, inaugurated in June, 1928, carries more passengers in month than it did during all of 1925. Bad equipment and bad streets were responsible for the failure of the original lines. It was quite natural that the people preferred the smooth riding tranways, even though they were and still are crowded with straphings like the New York subways at rush hours. Night Driving Assisted by Efficient Headlights Motorists who use radiator glycerin antifreeze in their cooling systems find that it is often helpful to have a small bottle of the solution handy in the pocket of the car. Among the many uses found for the substance is that of making headlights more efficient during rainy weather. Each drop of water or particle of ice forming on the glass acts like a tiny lens, and the light rays are reflected in all directions. A few drops of glycerin applied to the headlight lens will help to keep the glass free from collected moisture and result in better light and a clearer view of the road. THE MOTOR QUIZ How Many Can You Answer? Q. How many automobiles entered the national parks in 1928? Ans. According to government reports, 555,000. Q. What countries bar the use of certain automobile body colors and why? Ans. China bars red on account of its religious significance, while Spain prohibits the use of blue because it is the color of the royal family. Q. Why should spark plugs be securely screwed into the cylinder after installing new ones or cleaning? Ans. This prevents hot gases from escaping between the plug and cylinder threads, which would cause the plug to run too hot, resulting in loss of power. Q. How many automobiles were linked in 1928? Ans. More than 2,213,000. Indication of Speed Is Obtained by a Pointer A new "pointer" type speedometer was introduced at the recent New York and Chicago automobile shows. Indication of speed is obtained by means of the pointer, which moves "Pointer" Speedometer. around a full circle scale, similar to that of a clock. At 60 miles an hour, for instance the pointer would be in the twelve o'clock position of hands on a clock. Thus speed may also be known simply by the position of the pointer, Be sure that the way is clear before entering a line of traffic from a parking place. Other things being equal the better the gas used in winter the less crank case dilution there will be. Motor busses are now operated over 95 regular established routes in Germany, a total length of 1,500 miles. "Look, mamma!" cried Willy, on being shown through the Egyptian room of the museum. "See the stuffed pedestrian!" The hit-and-run driver continues building up a public resentment against his unholy works that should react dangerously when we catch him. Because cold engines do not run smoothly there is a greater temptation to slip the dutch, and damage it than during any other kind of driving. Motor fatalities in 1929 showed an increase of more than 5 per cent. If this keeps up the growth in population will have to jump, as well as the pedestrian. In addition to keeping the car looking its best relatively frequent washing will provide the artillery wheels with the degree of moisture that will give them strength and silence. HOW THEY DID IT! "I Want to Commend Your Steadfast Refusal (the Editor's) to Confer With Blossom. That Is Where "The White Man" Gets the Negro—in Private Conference Two to One—Two White Men—One "Negro", and He Is Hobbled to Fit the White Man's Program!!!"—Rev. Geo. Wilson Brent (white), DUDLEY S.BLOSSOM "THE BLOSSOM TRIPLETS" It does not seem possible that three persons, candidates for office in quest of votes, could possibly go thru several weeks of campaigning, day and night pledging the voters that, if elected, they would do all in their power to oust a man from office who had denied them and their people, of all the population of a great city like Cleveland, rights and privileges (in a public institution) in a most insulting manner, and The Truth: What would cause other people to gnash their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, pile depreductions 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. then fail to do so, with victory in their hands—only dependent upon their keeping their pledge to the people who elected them. And yet that is exactly what Councilmen Clayborne George, Leroy Bundy and Lawrence Payne did in the case of City Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom, when on Monday, Feb. 17, "30, they 'waived their opposition',—not ours—and City Manager Daniel E. Morgan, knowing the condition of affairs thoroly, so flagrantly insulted all of our loyal, self and race respecting people in this city by appointing Blossom, city welfare director. All three councilmen, in a conference with the editor of The Gazette about ten days previous to Feb. 17, "30, freely admitted they had a "mandate" from our people of the city to oust Blossom from office for his most miserable treatment of them. The statement that "Manager Morgan would have appointed him, anyhow" is not true. That fact he made clear in a conference with the editor of this paper. And even if it were true, which was not the case, even that would not excuse them for breaking their pledge to our people of the districts and to all the rest of the city, because when they "waived" their opposition to Blossom, they were not keeping but breaking their pledge and ignoring the people and the pledge they so often and so loudly proclaimed, day and night, in public testimony, during last fall's campaign. It is an unpardonable act for which Bundy, Payne and George will be made to atone, if they dare to face the electorate of their districts again, next year, seeking re-election. Our people of this community had a somewhat similar experience in the case of Councilman E. J. Gregg upon whom they visited a stinging defeat at the polls, last fall, because of his sad exhibition of disloyalty when he voted for a white Democrat in preference to one of his own people. Our people, especially the intelligent ones, will not condone such flagrant disloyalty, to the race, in their public servants, especially those of color. They have to work too hard to elect them to office to quietly submit to such shameless mistreatment, and Councilmen Payne, Bundy and George will be made to recognize this fact, next year in the fall, should they stand again as candidates. Nor will our city manager be forgotten when the opportunity affords. How One Woman Lost 20 Pounds of Fat Lost Her Double Chin—Lost Her Prominent Hips— Lost Her Sluggishness Gained Physical Vigor — Vivaciousness — a Shapely Figure PETER H. BURGESS "The Blossom Triplets," Counselmen George, Payne and Bundy, endorsed Ormond Forte for the superintendency of the garbage plant, Being told by the leaders of the local Republican organization that Forte would not be appointed because he not only failed to support the organization side of the controversy, last fall, but aided the Progressive Government Committee in its campaign and for other good and sufferings of the people to the support of Sydney B. Thompson for the job. When the local Republican leaders informed "The Triplets" that they would O. K. Thompson's appointment, "The Blossom Trio" withdrew their support of Thompson and announced the renewal of their support of the "Forte lost cause." All of which is very amusing. Other names mentioned in connection with the appointment of the Abu Sayed successor are Seth Nickens and Walt L. veteran of the World War, adjutant of Lemuel T. Boydston post and for fourteen years in charge of the garbage plant, some years ago, as act- 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 even 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 self-respect and have no 'guts.' The world respects only those who resent and resist prescriptions 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. ing superintendent of the same. As we said in our last issue, "The Blossom Trio or Triplets", who still do not seem "to know what it is all about," will continue their foolish course in this matter of the appointment of a superintendent of the garbage plant until the local Republican organization leaders, as a result of disgust, will give that $3500 to the Republican, and that will settle it. The pointment of Stokes to the position seems to us to be the logical one, and if "The Triplets" are wise they will urge the World War Veteran for the place, at once. THEY BLAME DAVIS "The Blossom Triplets" blame the Hon. Harry E. Davis, a member of the Civil Service commission, for the loss of the clerkship in that department of the city service, promised them for "waiving" their opposition.

MORGAN to the reappointment of City Welfare Director Dudley Blossom, and vainly trying to waive ours, too. There are three members of the commission and Davis is only one of them. It does not seem hardly fair for Councilmen George, Payne and to place nil of the fact of the failure of the Blossom Triplets* to be blame, just as they are to blame for holding up the appointment of a member of the race as superintendent of the garbage plant, a $2500 a year job, and for their failure to get the other "promised" job, the clerkship in the city treasurer's department. When they permitted City Manager Daniel E Morgan and City Welfare Director Dudley Blossom, nursing their "mandate" to out Blossom from office, given them by their constituents, last fall during the campaign, "The Blossom Triplets" lost the standing with Morgan and the local Republican leaders they should hold, today. As it is, they are but putty in the hands of these local Republican leaders who treat their pleas and requests as they should be treated in view their support of the Blossom appointment contrary to the demand of our people, the great mass of their constituents.
