REDUCTION IN RATES For Transatlantic Telephone Calls Made By Ohio Bell (Company) A reduction of $15 on all transatlantic telephone calls, effective, Sunday, May 11, has been announced by officials of The Ohio Bell Telephone Co. Cleveland patrons may call London for $33 under the new plan, whereas the former rate called for $48. Additional minute charges have been reduced $5 and report charges, $2. Rates to points on the same mount of Europe are reduced the same month, and last year's transatlantic telephone sages, the reduction will mean a saving to patrons using the service of approximately $450,000 a year. Transatlantic telephone conversations averaged about 50 per business day in 1929. Increased use of the service is the chief factor enabling the American Telephone and Telegraph Company to place the new reduction, the third since the service was introduced in 1928, the average calls per day increased 357 per cent over 1927. Last year, the increase was about 60 per cent over 1928. All points reached by transatlantic telephone service are affected by the reduction and it is available at any time, night or day. There are four radio channels linking nearly all of the countries of western Europe with all Bell telephones in the United States. More than 21,500,000 telephones in North America have direct connection with 8,000,000 in Europe. DR. E. J. GREEG AND "THE BLOBSOM TRIPLETS" Monterey, Mex., May 12, '30. Mr. H. C. Smith.

It pleased me very much, last fall, to see you fight that man Gregg Oldenbush, the old chiefs of Cleveland should get together run him and "The Blossom Triplets" back South where they belong, and let them start "jim crow" hospitals with color-line managers like Director Blossom of Cleveland.

Nothing is more eloquent to our mind than the fact that Negroes have taken full advantage of every opportunity ever offered to them in the way of education. And many of the race, both men and women, have traveled far. The Negro race has given us, and still gives to us, not only great citizens, able business men, professional men and women, but, better than all that, poets, artists and dreamers of beautiful dreams. It is an inspiring picture. We rejoice with our brothers and sisters whose souls and hearts have in them the ancient rhythm of Africa's olden glory—John S. McGroarty in Los Angeles (Calif.) Trees (daily). "SOBER-FACE BOB" Sure "Goin' Some"—Finishes "Central High" in Three Years and Writes Poems in Latin—Bright Lad. Fourteen-year-old Robert Coleman, 2314 E. 43d St. in knee pants, who writes original poems in Latin and who finished a four-year high school course in three years, will deliver the valedictory address of Central High, June 18. Robert, whose major subjects are Latin, mathematics and science, will graduate with a scholastic average of 942. a ROBERT COLEMAN higher average than that of any other student in many years at Central High school. Talking to strangers, Robert is shy and would rather speak of his studies than of himself. He was born in Dallas, Tex., and came to Cleveland with his parents. He was born near Man City, Mo., and entered Central High, His Latin teacher, Miss Helen Chesnut, daughter of Atty, Charles W. Chesnut, the author, says that his ability to grasp instantly the intricacies of Latin grammar is exceptional. Robert's ambition is to be a teacher of mathematics. He intends to enter University in 1931. After his graduation, June, hopes to work to earn part of his college expenses. He likes baseball and tennis in summer and sleigh-riding in winter. "Robert is one of our most popular students in this school. Honors bestowed upon him because of his exceptional achievements in several sports, earns him head." M. Foster Lewis, assistant principal of Central High, says. THE KING AND QUEEN of England Summon Maceo Thomas and Wife, Dancers de Laux, to Entertain Them, It Is Said. A 23-year-old young man of the race, of this city, who used to carry off prizes at local Charlestoning and fancy roller-skating contests, has received a royal summons to dance before the King and Queen of England in a special royalty variety performance in London, May 22. He is Maceo son of Dr. Joseph T. Heisler of Fort Joseph, six masters, he has been making a triumphant tour, with his wife, Carol Chilton, age 21, playing at leading vaudeville houses in London, Paris, Berlin, Monte Carlo and Cannes. Critics have waxed enthusiastic in English, French and German over their act, "Dancing Feet." Maceo was born in Birmingham, Ala., but has lived here from early youth. For many years he was a dancer, that he could dance especially well, although they did know that he was a skillful roller skater. The Charleston craze swept up from the south. Maceo took the phonograph up to the top-floor (in E. 40th St.) and the practice spare minute. "He nearly drove us crazy with his thumping," his father says. "We'd have to go out to the movies to get away from his noise. One day Maceo made a national television contest in Chicago. It would take during the spring vacation of his senior year at Central High school. He told his father he wanted to go. Dr. Thomas said Maceo was wasting his time. "If I earn the expense money, may I go?" asked Maceo. His father consented, and the boy set to work to organize a little troupe that gave performances, until the train arm was raised. He had two big silver cups, one for winning the U. S. Charleston contest, the other for the international contest. Maceo and his wife will leave London, May 28, for Cleveland. "Green Pastures" Given the Award SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS SOME JURORS KLUXERS! ALL OHIO COURTS AGAINST HIM, FLEMING MAKING HIS LAST "STAND." State Supreme Court Orders Him to Begin Serving Sentence at Once-Ignore Three Affidavits in His Favor-Tom "Not Home" When Officers Call! Atty. Alex. H. Martin's several efforts to date, to save former Councilman Thos. W. Fleming from being compelled to serve his sentence of thirty-three months in the state penitentiary at Columbus, have allailed it seems leaving him but one more to make and that is an appeal to the U. S. Supreme court which we understand, as we go to press (Thursday), he is in Washington, D.C. trying to make. Tuesday, the State Supreme court at Columbus decided Martin's motion, requesting the court to impose its jungle and to remand to the local court pleas court Fleming's conviction, diately following this, the court sent this city a mandate ordering Tom's arrest and the start of his serving the term provided for in his sentence. Tuesday night, when Deputies Sheriff went to the Fleming residence in E. 40th St. they could not learn of his whereabouts. Martin, who lives near the Fleming residence, when questioned, replied that he did not know where Tom was. He was undoubtedly absenting himself temporarily for the purpose only of giving his attorney time to make the Washington court, referred to in the foregoing. If the U. S. Supreme Court grants Martin's request, the execution of sentence, which the sheriff now seeks, will be automatically stayed until this last effort is made. The latest developments in the case, prior to Tuesday of this week, was an avidifav by a Mrs. Anna Shifrin of E. Cleveland, a neighbor of the Oehmes who made affidavit that she overheard Mrs. Oehme protest during the Fleming trial against "further lying on the stand", and Martin's charge that five members of the jury, which convicted Fleming, were members of the Ku Klux Klan, and as such were prejudiced. While the reference, Ku Klux Klan, is generally used, as a matter of fact the members of that vicious organization are Knights of the Invisi- Empire and not "Klansmen". This, under testified under oath in courts in various parts of the country. In our last issue we gave the substance of the affidavits of Mrs. Margaret L. Oehme (Walter Oehme's second wife) and her mother, Mrs. Anne Cathcart, and also a statement of Mr. Cathcart, Mrs. Oehme's father, confirming his wife's and daughter's statements in Fleming's favor in their affidavits. We herewith give Mrs. Shifrin's Agidayit. "Anna Shifrin, being sworn on oath, says that she lives at 1688 Carlyon rd., East Cleveland, O., and has lived at said address for upwards of six years; that she had a long acquaintance with Mrs. Margaret Oehme and her husband, Walter. We, we lived next door to her for about a year prior to the events herein referred to; that during the trial of Thomas W. Fleming for bribery, one morning about 8:30; she being unable to remember the exact date, she overheard the following conversation between Walter L. Oehme and his wife as they were about to take their automobile out, vtz; "Mrs. Oehme came out of the house and approached the automobile which was then in the backyard near the open window of affiant by which window affiant was seated. Mrs. Oehme was in tears and seemed almost hysterical. She stated to her husband, in the presence of her mother who had come out of the house, several times, I'm not going down there any more. I'm not going to take the stand and lie any more. The mother then interposed in a seeming effort to quiet and satisfy Mrs. Oehme. Mrs. Oehme went back into the house the rear. Mrs. Cathcart and Walter Oehme got into the car and drove away. "I did not see Mrs. Oehme leave the house, but in the evening of that day they all came back together. "I am making this statement voluntarily and because when I read Mrs. Oehme's statement in the paper I recognized it as being true by what I myself knew to be the fact and talked the matter over with my counsel, and he advised me that it was the proper thing for me to make the foregoing statement." Mrs. Shifrin said she had not acted until now because she had not wanted to get into the case. But had finally decided to tell her story after she had read Mrs. Oehme's and Mrs. 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 NEWBIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. THE COPY FIVE CENTS MING! ERS KLUXERS! AGAINST HIM, FLEMING LAST "STAND." orders Him to Begin Serving Ignore Three Affidavits in "Not Home" When ers Call! Cathart's recent affidavit. Atty. Lewis Drucker advised her to tell her story and arrange an interview with Atty. Martin. County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller and his attorneys discussed all three affidavits in the local daily press and undoubtedly largely destroyed their effectiveness and usefulness. The association with Martin, in the case, of some outstanding white attorney, preferably an ex-judge of our common pleas or higher courts, would have minimized Miller's efforts to ridicule and weaken their general effect and would have placed different light before the eyes of the community as well as in the courts. It is unfortunate to say the least that this was not done. A history of the case follows: Jan. 21, 1929—Oehme makes affidavit that, in September, 1927, he paid emining $200 to push legislation for payment of $354 medical expenses Jan. 22, 1929 - Fleming is indicted by the county grand jury on a charge of soliciting a bribe, is arraigned before Common Pleas Judge Samuel E. Kramer half an hour later, pleads not guilty and is released under $1,000 bond. Jan. 28, 1929 - Grand jury retires from the county charging Fleming with accepting a bribe. Arraigned before Judge Kramer, Fleming again pleads not guilty and is released under additional bond of $500. Feb. 4, 1929 - Fleming goes on trial before Common Pleas Judge N. Craig McBride, sitting here by assignment from Hillsboro. Feb. 8, 1929 - Fleming is found guilty on the second indictment after 22 hours of incarceration by jury of eight men and four women. Feb. 9, 1929 - Fleming resigns from the City Council. Wednesday, on her return to the city, Mrs. Fleming said that she and her husband had spent a week in Montreal, and were returning in his car by way of Buffalo. "The car broke down out of Buffalo," she said, "and I came on. Mr. Fleming will arrive in all probability tonight or Thursday. The car trouble originally developed on a trip to a hunting lodge in a small Canadian town out of Montreal where he and Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, attended a dinner party." As we go to press, Atty. Martin who is in Montreal in Washington, D.C. as previously stated, announced that he was undecided as his next move in the Fleming case, because the State Supreme Court's refusal to modify the mandate deprived him of a chance to take the case to the U. S. Supreme Court, Tom's $3,000 bond was signed by Howard S. Slaughter. DOINGS OF THE RACE. The total decrease in the population of the Virgin Islands since becoming a possession of the U.

Shepard, well-known North Carolina educator, endorses the Parker appointment. This should not be forgotten by our people. The Gazette is indebted to and thanks The Cleveland Daily Press for the portrait of Robert Coleman, to be found elsewhere in this paper. Technically there are no members of the Ku Klux Klan, they always insist when brot into court. They are "Knights of the Invisible Empire." This they have sworn to in court. It would be well, particularly for attorneys, to remember this. Former Councilman Thomas W. Fleming didn't "run away", as the daily newspapers of Wednesday would have the community to believe, but simply absented himself for the purpose of giving his attorney time to file an appeal with the U. S. Supreme court at Washington, D. C. --- All former Councilman Thomas W. Fleming's legal troubles of the past year are based upon the charge that he was "paid $200 (by Walter Oehme) to push legislation for payment of $354, medical expenses." That is, Oehme claimed to have paid Tom $200 to get him $554. This in itself is enough to make anyone question the charge upon which Tom was convicted. --- Mrs. M. D. Butler, vice chairman of the National Political Study club, of Washington, D. C., wired Senator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio anent the Parker confirmation as follows: "Thru our press and our National Association of Women's clubs, I am asking the colored women of Ohio to note your stand in the Parker case." This greatly peeved the Senator, causing him to refer to the telegram as "manufactured clamor." In reply, Mrs. Butler said: "The Senator seems to have forgotten the 'manufactured clamor', thru Miss Hallie Q. Brown, he got when he wanted Ohio colored women's votes." Fine! We need more Mrs. M. D. Butlers and need them greatly. More power to her and her kind! MEETING A "FROST" The "Blossom Triplets" much heralded and greatly advertised meeting for Sunday afternoon, May 11, '30, at Shiloh Baptist church, proved the expected "frost," only about seventy-five persons attending it. Councilman L. O. Payne, who was present, did not speak and left the meeting before adjournment, it is said. Councilman L. N. Bundy "ducked" it, going to Wilberforce to spend Sunday, knowing the meeting would not be well attended and that it would be an indication of what their outraged constituents in the third and fourth districts are going to do to them, next year, in the fall time. Dr. O. A. Childress presided and Atty. Benj. Sacharow made the opening speech. He was followed by Mrs. Mary B. Martin, our member of the school board, who to date has been unable to do any of the many things her constituents of color are expecting. All are patiently waiting. She devoted about all of her speech in an explanation of her efforts to date to learn the work of a member of the school board. Councilman George was the spokesman for "The Blossom Triplets" (Councilmen Payne, George and Bundy) whom he gave credit for the minor position in the city clerk's office, held by Harvey B. Atkins; the recent appointment of Seth Nickens as superintendent of the city garbage collection department; C. Bundy, a brother of Councilman Bundy, to a minor position in the county treasurer's office; three colored employees at the City hospital, and the appoint- ment of a young lady stenographer in the county commissioner's office. He apolorized for the small accomplishment and said he hoped "The Triplets" would be able to do better in the future. As a matter of fact, George claimed, in the foregoing, a good deal more than "The Blossom Triplets" are entitled to. Nickens' appointment was made in spite of them and their insistence upon the appointment of Ormond Forte who opposed the Republican organization, last fall, and supported Hopkins and the Progressive-Government-Charter side of that contest. The three jobs at the City hospital were undoubtedly given them in return for the "wailing" of their (not our) opposition to the Blossom appointment, and consequent "selling out" of their constituents of color in the third and fourth districts particularly, and the entire city, all of whom they promised so often and so vehemently, during last fall's campaign, to do all in their power to oust. The young lady stenographer in the county commissioner's office won her place, last fall, in a civil service examination and "The Blossom Triplets" are entitled to no credit in that case. We do not know just how much credit our people are disposed to give Councilman Bundy for securing his brother the small job in the county treasurer's office, with so many older and more deserving Republican organization workers out of employment and so greatly in need of it. The Atkins job was developed as a direct result of their most reprehensible "wailing", in the Blossom matter. Atty. Wm. R. Green and Rev. A. L. Boone, pastor of the church, made short speeches just before adjournment. PRIME SPORT NEWS Fans Boo As "Gorilla" Is Robbed! Holyoke, Mass.—Though Gorilla Jones, hard-hitting welter from Akron, floored Bucky Lawless of Syracuse twice here, Monday night, and was well ahead on points, at the end of their ten-round bout, the decision was arbitrarily given to Lawless. A capacity house greeted the verdict with feers and boos. Thompson Sought to Fight Here. The Cleveland Giants The Cleveland Giants are scheduled to open the season at Hoopen field, tomorrow. Home games are booked when the Cleveland Indians are out of the city. The following players had reported, the first of the week: Capt. Ray Moser, E. Anthony, J. Simmons, S. Hampton, J. Stinchcomb, C. Malls, F. Spencer, C. Franklin, E. Cross and T. Jefferson. Thompson Wins Title From Fields. Detroit, Mich.—There is a new welterweight champion of the world, Young Jack Thompson of Oakland. Cal. In one of the most startling upsets in years, Thompson, with the heart of a lion and the boxing skill of a Joe Gans, decisively defeated Jackie Fields, Jewish title holder, in a blistering fifteen-round battle in the Olympia Arena, first punch, McMahon, the referee, unhesitatingly raised Thompson's hand in victory. The crowd of 15,000 roared its approval. Fields "Cried Like a Baby." Fields, champion of less than a year, buried his head in his hands as he sat in his corner, crushed in defeat, and cried like a baby. It was the first time that he had defended the title since he won it, July 25 of last year, when he defeated the tottering Joe Dundee on a foul in two rounds. The champion is the first Arore-Arore-clean to win the world-weight-title in 29 years, since Joe Wollcott won the honor from Rube Ferns (white) by knocking him in five rounds in Fort Erie On, in 1901. Thompson won the fight decisively and cleanly. He won ten of the fifteen rounds with Fields taking three, and the ninth and twelfth—being even. Thompson, a master boxer, with the ring craftiness of the old master, Gans, fought a smart cagey battle. He had Fields so tired and leg-weary after the tenth round that the champion hardly had sufficient strength to fight back. **Fields "Ran Away" and Hung On.** Fields began to show signs of distress at the start of the eighth. The champion made only a feeble attempt to combat Thompson's two-fisted attack to the head and. Fields ran end of the round. Fields booled him into fields repeatedly saved himself by going into clinches and "hanging on for his life," to the accompaniment of jeers from the crowd. From the tenth round on the champion tired quickly, with Thompson cool and with plenty in reserve, forcing him all around the ring. The battle was fought at the welterweight championship of 147 pounds. Both Fields championed Thompson were under a figure when they weighed 22.0 o'clock in the afternoon. Fields tipped the beam at 145% while Thompson was down at 142%. Winner Gets Only $2,500. The new champion is 25 years old and has participated in more than 200 ring battles. Under the peculiarities of the financial arrangements for tonight's contest, he will get only $2,500, while Fields, the dethroned champion, was guaranteed $37,500; also will get a share of the purse that was to have gone to Thompson. This was the agreement, provided Fields lost.

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 has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been 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: 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. 193 v. 161 2. Section 6279.

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, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share.

A person may be 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 member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) YOU KNOW ME, AL Well, we are about ready to start for the south because the Mrs. just bought a new wardrobe trunk which we have to keep down in the cellar because we can't get it through the door of our apartment and who knows what she's going to put in it. You'd think she was going to Palm Beach or some place whereas in these training camps if a woman changes her dress more than once a week the hotel keeper puts it on your bill. A ball player would be lots better off if he didn't get married not to mention bank clerks whose wives buy wardrobe trunks, and they try to fill them with customers' money. very effective, Illinois, Pennsylvania al. New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other nor- thern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows: OBS. ed. representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lych another. costs in tax levy. inst member of mob. inst another county. 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 to disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11). 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: See. 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 succession of the estates 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 hundreds dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is 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. HERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY!

Hi-Ja Che ATLANTA, THE SOUTH'S SHAME. The rioting at Sherman, Tx., is an extravaganza of horror almost beyond the comprehension of northern readers. It reads like a chapter clipped from some barbarous record and reprinted on the front page of a modern newspaper. So long as the political, economic and social suppression of the "Negro" continues in the South, that long will lynchings continue. So long as these practices corrupt the white man's sense of justice, so long will he be capable of such acts of savagery. The nation as a whole can do no less in express freely and publish widely the universal condemnation of civilized citizens of a sectional culture which permits such outrages. — Cleveland Daily Press Our Senator Fess. Editor Press:—Believing the readers of your paper would be interested in an outside-of-Ohio opinion of Senator Fess, I send you the following, written by Frank Kent, the Washington, D. C., correspondent of the Baltimore Daily Sun, in a dispatch to his paper: "In the absence of any selected administration leader that job (defending the Parker appointment) was assumed by Senator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio. The result has been that the Parker case has been pitily presented in the Senate. It may be true the case itself is a weak one. It is also true it is easier to attack than defend. Nevertheless, there certainly could be found a man among the 25 regular Republicans counted for Parker better able to lead than the prim little history teacher from Antobich. The word to describe Senator Fessman is "long-winded," as a speaker he is tedious, long winded, repetitions and cloudy. He seems to have a talent for blunting his points. He gets all messed up in his own arguments. He is remarkable for the things he does not see and is not clear even to himself. Up to date he has made four speeches in the Parker fight progressively dull." E. C. POLICE GUARD WOMEN'S HOME. Commissioners Order Suburb to Act—Hoodlums Break Windows—Police On the Job. Two University Heights patrolmen were detailed, last week, to guard the home of the town, at 3494 Tullamore Rd, that village, at 3494 Tullamore Rd, that village. Mayor John J. Howard said, after about 100 citizens met at the village hall to make up a purse to induce the Misses Johnson to sell and leave the suburb. They collected $159 in cash, and more in pledges and received word that the county commissioners had directed the proper police protection and avoid liability to the county. The commissioners said they would call on Sheriff Edward J. Harnratty for protection for the Misses Johnson's home if Howard failed. He furnished the protection. The commissioners acted on a letter from Atty. Harry E. Davis, member of the OSU State Commission, telling of stones having been hurled from passing autos thru windows of the Johnson What's The Trunk For?

HEAR!! Three weeks ago, the Cleveland Press predicted the early removal of City Garbage Collection Superintendent Abe Crutch and the appointment of Seth Nickens, a foreman in the street department, as his successor. It also said that Nickens was sued for the failure of "The Blossom Triplets" clashed with Councilman Herman Finkle over Crutch's successor. Also, that Ormond Forte, Crutch's assistant at the garbage plant, was "The Triplets" candidate, which was true, and that Finkle's candidate was Sidney B. Thimpson. Right there is the Army drill down, and Alex Bernstein on the very first favored the appointment of any member of our race to the superintendency of the garbage plant, to succeed Crutch, that "The Blossom Triplets" would decide upon. Forte excepted. That was the line-up until "The Triplets" named Thompson as their first choice for the place to be the headquarters back about six weeks ago, only a second from this later. The matter stood that way until recently, "The Blossom Triplets" returning to the support of Forte from which they were compelled to back away when the agreement to appoint Nickens was reached, several weeks ago. Superintendent Crutch and his assistant, Forte, ended up, last fall, with the assistance of the executive. —charter side of the fight, opposing the Republican organization's candidates, in spite of the fact that both of them had secured their appointments from the latter. That is why Crutch has gone and Forte will go before many moons. Both of them were political traitors to the power that gave them the power to govern the nation. The Blossom Triplets" and their candidate, Ormond Forte, lost out. The foregoing is the truth and can be depended upon. Atty. Harold K. Gassaway was elected president of the Eighteenth Ward Republican club, last week Friday night, at Western Reserve Republican club headquarters in E. 55th St., and Norman L. Medhee was chosen secretary, in spite of the opposition of Councilman George and other "regulars" who sympathized with Ward-leader Skinkle (white) whom the former are trying to "unhose" and replace with a member of the race because our people are more immersed in that war. It is said that Gassaway plans to stand as a candidate for the Council in the fourth district, in opposition to Councilman George, next year. Alex. O. Taylor, elected president of the 19th Ward Republican club, recently, is proving "a live-wire" as the club's leader, and is providing it with entertainment, varied and above the ordinary. The club very properly protested the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina, now notorious because of his anti "Negro" and anti-organized-labor stand, the two forces that prevented his becoming an associate justice of the U. S. Supreme court. It is said that Marcus Mason is to be given Ormond Forte's job at the garbage plant. Some one of our Republican organization workers ought to get it if Mason does not. Get busy. L. L. Yancy who was weeks ago slated for a clerkship in the city treasurer's office, was to go to work, this week. Mr. Yancy was manager and publicity man for Councilman George in both of his campaigns. Rumor has it that there are several candidates for the city job being held by the son of Rev. A. L. Boone, pastor of Shiloh Baptist church. Both father and son supported the Hopkins and Progressive-Government-Chartter side, in last fall's campaign. Atty. Norman L. McGhee is to be given a position in the probation department of the divorce court, presided over by Judge A. J. Pearson, so the latter informed The Gazette Monday.

The new "Pullman of the Highways" will travel between St. Louis and Kansas City, and breakfast will be served en route at portable tables. The pullmans have two levels of chairs. These seats, 26 in all, are converted into 26 berths, the beds measuring 6 feet four inches long. BILL, THE BUS DRIVER SAYS "There's a difference between an excuse and a reason. You can find plenty excuses, but not one bloomin' reason for bein' carceless." (By MARCUS A. DOW.) If there's any one kind of a hick answerin' to the name of drivin' fool it's the bird who waves alibi at you whenever he gets in dutch and has an accident. A party of my more or less remote acquaintance parked his speed buggy at the curb and went into a house. While he was gone it rolled away and collided with a sedan. In the sedan was a lady about thirty years old. She was a good lookin' dame, fair complested, brown hair and a cheery smillin' sort of face that spread sunshine wherever she went. Her sedan got a nasty rap and a piece of jagged glass cut a deep ugly gash on her pretty cheek, disgirur her for life. I wonder how does that thoughtless lunette that left his car parked in an unsafe manner feel about it down in his heart? In his insurance report he wrote, "While I was in the house the brakes on my car let go, which was the cause of the accident." Don't his alibi give you a laugh? As if that tin can of him had some ghostly power enabling it to let go and start up of its own free will and ram another car. Now you know and I know his brakes didn't just let go. The fact is this guy parked on a grade, forgot to cut his wheels to the curb, and left his engine running! The vibration of the engine jarred the brakes loose and that old bus of his rolled down hill. A natural outcome of this guy's damn fool carelessness. I heard of a guy workin' on a railroad who turned in an accident report like this, "John Smith, brakeman, got bit on the end of the finger while trying to spit tobacco juice down a rattlesmake's threat." In answer to the question, "Who was to blame for the accident?" was written, "The rattlesmake." Drivin' a bus or auto careless like is the same as teasin' a rattlesnake. Don't blame the snake if it bites you. And believe me, I know a lot of folks this kick in the shins is meant for Occasional Change of Oil Saves Efficiency An engine, to operate efficiently, must have an occasional change of oil. If its lubricating value is diminished there is undue wear of all engine parts, which may lead to serious damage. Oil becomes practically worthless if an excessive amount of gasoline has become mixed with the lubricant, so as to make it very thin, or if water has gotten into it and caused it to emulsify or to contain free acid. Also, if dust, metal particles, pieces of carbon or other hard and abrasive material have polluted the oil in considerable quantities, its further use will cause very rapid wear of engine parts. AUTOMOBILE HINTS Valve cores in tires should be renewed about once each year. A little light oil will relieve the stubborn manipulation of the choke button. Over 58 per cent of the new cars bought last year were on the installation plan. The fouling of spark plugs or excessive oil consumption will cause the engine to smoke. A new car sometimes turns out to be a "lemon" simply because the owner has not given it the proper care. Cars are getting lower and lower and maybe the time will come when pedestrians can jump over them. A hit-and-run motor driver may be hard to catch. The penalty should be the more severe on that account. THE MOTOR QUIZ (How Mady Can You Answer?) Q. Why does an old car use more oil than a new one? Ans. Primarily because different joints in old cars are looser, permitting the oil to leak out. Also pistons and rings which have been worn will poss oil in to the combustion chamber where it is burned. Q. If after parking one finds oil has leaked from the engine of his car, what should he do? Ans. The car should be inspected and loose parts tightened in order to conserve oil. This will make a big difference in oil consumption. Q. What is the most important oil saving device on the automobile? Ans. The oil filter. It removes the foreign matter from the oil, thus making it possible to use the oil much longer. Every 10.000 miles the oil filter cartridge should be renewed as it becomes filled at this mileage. Q. If the oil filter is not renewed when it becomes filled with foreign matter, what happens? Ans. It will be necessary to change oil more frequently as the oil is not filtered. Attain High Speed With Self-Propelling Rockets The latest adaptation of rockets has been their use in propelling cyclists. The picture shown above is one taken on a Berlin track in which the riders German Cyclists Use Rockets. attained a high speed of 40 kilometers an hour. The exact results have been kept secret and will not be made public until the completion of the tests. Pointers on Proper Care of Expensive Automobile batteries, radiator and tires are the important things to consider for the efficient operation of a car. The engine, chassis and radiator should be attended to according to the particular needs of the car, but batteries should be watered at least once every two weeks, and tires gauged and checked at least once a week. Water and oil are two of the worst enemies of tire fabric, and, for this reason small stone cuts in the casing should be kept filled with some good tire filler₂. Oil will ruin an inner tube in a week. Never throw the extra inner tubes in promiscuously with the greasy rags and oil can. Wrap them carefully in cloth, or, better still, get a couple of good, strong cloth bags for them. Protecting Automobile Engine Against Wear The thin oil film between moving parts is really what protects the automobile engine against wear. This oil film is six times thinner than the page of this newspaper. It is kept clean by the oil filter—the device through which the oil passes and is filtered. After 10,000 miles of driving it is important to service the oil filter because after this mileage it becomes filled with as much as two pints of dirt, sludge and other foreign matter taken from the oil, and ceases to function at highest efficiency in keeping the oil film clean.

VEILING OF THE BRIDE IMPORTANT FROM A PICTORIAL STANDPOINT THE BRIDES ONE-PIECE TWEED DRESS QUALIFIES AS ULTRA-SMART "SPECTATOR FROCK" THE HOME OF THE WORLD'S FINEST FASHION STYLE BRIDE-time it is! Courter salons and dressmaster establishments, window displays and magazine pages all proclaim that now has the season of weddings arrived. In atelier and humble workroom alike, on tables, on shelves, in every nook, orange blossoms are blooming in pretty confusion while masses of billowy tulle rise like fleecy clouds along the horizon. Yards and yards of gleaming white satin, lustrous moire, snowy crepes and other materials of which bridal robes are evolved, also invite immediate action with the scissors, needle and chart. Oh, yes, indeed! 'Tis strenuous times in fashionland just now, for all the style world is working overtime to the end that the June bride-to-be may present a picture of loveliness. From a pictorial standpoint the headaddress and veiling of the bride present a theme which challenges the makers of modes to utmost aristry in the achieving of flattering effects. Becomingness is or should be the thought supreme in the mind of the designer. The full-length figure in the picture presents a veil and headaddress arrangement which should prove flattering to almost every type. Orange blossoms together with a band of lace charmingly frame the face. The ONE-PIECE TWEED AS ULTRA-SMART " THE program of dress for this spring and summer is that well-balanced, the fashionable wardrobe must include costumes of the most practical and wearable type as well as the pretty feminine sort which revels in lengthened hemlines, high waistlines, and all sorts of frills and furbelows. Each have their time and place in the mode. So, after all, women who do not care for the frilly picturesque styles which came so unexpectedly into our midst need not wear them—for there are plenty of trim, trig and infinitely chic tailleurs from which to make choice. The pretty tailored one-piece dress of featherweight tweed in the picture, is typical of the trend to practical styles tuned to town or travel wear. This swanky cloth model is quite suited to the youthful figure, that is why Joan Marsh, who posed for this photograph, selected it. Miss Marsh, as you may perhaps know, is a sixteen-year-old contract player out Hollywood way. Her dress is intricately seemed as most of the smartest tailored frocks are this season. Yet in appearance it is the very essence of simplicity. Note the inset vestee with its three rows of cuff-link buttons. The skirt, too, is chic to the last degree, having a yoke formed of triple tiers of the cloth flatty stitched, to which a wide circular flare is attached. Many of the little semi-sports frocks on this order have detachable matching capes, some long and some merely shoulder length. Covert cloth in every possible shade is very popular this y Your Copy or an Acqu veil of bemberg tulle is draped in a girlish unaffected manner. The gown of white bemberg satin is styled with classic simplicity. White kid slippers, white kid gloves and the white kid prayer book which the bride carries convey the message that ensembled accessories are as important for bridal array as for costumes in general. As will be seen by the thumb-nail sketches in this group, creators of bridal raiment are designing very beautiful headdresses of lace this season. A pretty idea recently advanced is a cap of real lace with a frill at the neckline like that of a baby's bonnet, from underneath which the trail of tulle takes its start. The unique part of this lace effect is that the generously large built-up bridal bouquet of white roses is bordered with a ruffle of lace matching that which fashions the cap. One reason these close-fitting lace caps are so well liked is that they give a definite pleasing line to the head. Not only are the bonnet-like effects inspired by picturesque peasant caps provoking popular, but nonliked draperies of tulle also hold their own in the scheme of things. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (© 1930 Western Newspaper Union.) DRESS QUALIFIES SPECTATOR FROCK" season, and it would lend itself admirably to a dress such as pictured. Engaged In active sports one more likely selects a skirt with a bouse or sweater, adding a jacket of the cloth to be worn only when really needed. As to the one-piece cloth dress as illustrated, fashion makes the careful distinction of calling it a "specator frock." For those who go to look on at the game, such a frock bespeaks utmost smartness. One can make no better color selection for the light wooden frock than navy blue. Even the shoes should be of may kid. The simple blue hat, if of straw, may be enveloped with perhaps a band and bow of belting ribbon in the new shade of nok which is so fashionable, or it may be just a sung folk. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

Must Rid the Race of "Leaders" Picked by Others Sits in the Senate to "Check Up"—Southern Disfranchisement and the Fourteenth and Eighteenth Amendments. Baltimore, Md. - Addressing 2,000 persons in Shiloh Baptist church here, last week Tuesday night, Con- firmation of the Dept. of Chicago (spoke in part as follows) "I have heard the gentleman representing the mayor speak about the great things Negroes are accomplishing in Baltimore. I hope they are substantial things and not flowery, shadowy. You will not get substantial things until you learn to organize and follow your leadership. You must learn to select your own leaders, and not allow white men to select bad men. They are doing just like I would do, if I had to select your 'leaders'. Just as they are doing, I would choose whom I could control. We must learn to depend on each other. I have always said it God would forgive me for being born in Alabama. I would never return there. Our people were taught that everything that is white is virtuous. That is also a mistake. There is some good in every race and some bad. The black race is no exception. The Negroes all over America must get together and quit adopting the attitude that if I can't do a certain thing another Negro must not. I would not be in a race with people of the same race had not placed me in charge. They did not send me because I was better than someone else. They sent me because only a person who has been 'jim-crowed', segregated and persecuted can represent them. Only a person who can understand our handcaps can be lead us. A man may have good intentions, but if he has not walked into a place of business and been denied service because of his race connection or color he cannot like John, or some other individual, does not make the latter leaders or will not help solve the problems in which the race is interested. The Parker Case. Woman Vote Important. "You must learn that whenever you try to hold another Negro down you will have to stay down to keep him down. Boost up somebody you can depend upon. There are enough wrong leaders, but all are not wrong. I feel sorry for the city of Baltimore if you cannot trust some. If you cannot find them among the men, I know you can find them among the women. Women cannot be bluffed or bulldozed. The salvation of the race lies with our women. I would not let it happen if it were not for women of Chicago. If it were the women to take hold, because I know they want to make conditions better for their boys and girls. Some people accuse me of being too out- spoken and driving our friends away. If that keeps persons away, I do not feel they are any good. Those are the ones that will pat you on the back. If you are not sure how to tell us we are great people but will not do anything for us. By doing as OSCAR DE I do, I am trying to make conditions better for my boy. When this is done, it will be better for the other boys. The vote on Parker's confirmation will be close. I was in the Senate three hours, Monday, and four hours, Tuesday. I am going to check the votes and let our people vote. By my congressional privilege, I voted. The only Negro of the 12,000,000 that can sit in the Senate chamber. I do not know whether they like it or not, but I like it, and I am going to sit there and check up. It is up to you to elect your friends and defeat your enemies. We must learn like the Irish, Swedes, Italians and other to support friends only. They are not in the place, and I do not mean purgatory, either. I appreciate the responsibility resting upon my shoulders. If I make a mistake every Negro in America is charged with it. In the case of other Congressmen, they just make a mistake, that's all. Twelve million persons will be charged up with my error. When I say to you how I should have measured every uttered plea to know how I stand on human rights and justice. I want them to know that we are not satisfied with existing conditions. If I do not tell them, how are they to know it? Certainly not by my keeping quiet. The average man in politics does not speak out because he is afraid. "I am proud of what Negro blood I may have in my body. You should be proud of that in your veins. We are too prone to want to get away from each other and speak little of each other when we get with white people. I would not criticise if I did not think well of you. No one will think more of you than you do yourself. The gentleman representing the mayor said that you were doing so well here. I wonder if you are getting recognition numerically according to your work. Do not think the Negro is getting the proper recognition anywhere in America. It is because we have not become perfect enough to work together. We do well, but not what we should do. Section 2 of the 14th Amendment says that states which abridge the rights of citizens to vote shall have their representation reduced. This amendment is not being lived up to. Congress has not passed an enforcing act. Congress has not passed an enforcing act. Volstead act as an enforcing measure. It is a great deal more important that citizens should have their rights protected than that they should be-prohibited from drinking. "In the last election, Maryland cast 528,348 voters. You have six congressional districts; in round numbers this is a representative to every 88,000 voters. Alabama, one to 24,000; Mississippi, one to 19,000; Arkansas, one to 18,000; South Carolina, one to 9,800. "Do you mean to tell me that a man's vote in South Carolina is worth 115,000 in Maryland?" "Illinois had a representative approximately to each 115,000; New York, 105,000; Ohio, 103,000; California, 163,000." "A man's vote, in South Carolina is worth 16 times more than in California and 13 times more than in New York. We can never have a true democracy until the votes are equalized. South Carolina elected seven Congressmen, but it did not cast as many votes as Maryland did in one district. It cast around 66,000 to your 528,000 and gets one more Congressman than Maryland. It might be possible that a Negro in his town will ask the white man to his own rights. I have asked Negroes to pray for me and I believe that the prayers of righteous availeth much. I ask that they pray again that right, not might, shall prevail."
