Hampton Inst., Va.—The success of the Hampton Institute chair, conducted by Prof. R. Nathaniel Dett, on their tour through England and on the continent has been marked. From the time they landed in Plymouth, England, where they were met by the Mayor in full regalia, their journey has been one of succeeding triumphs. The most notable occasion, perhaps, was that in Westminster Abbey when the choir was given honored positions adjoining the choir stalls at Evensong; following which they gathered about the tomb of David Livingstone to place a simple wreath of bays and palms with a few bits of heath, tied with blue and white ribbons, the school colors, and bearing the inscription "A tomb of David Livingstone, full remembrance of David Livingstone." Then they sang "Don't Be Weary, Traveler," one of Dr. Dett's anthems, while a great gathering of 3,000 people listened with sincere appreciation and reverence. Perhaps more than at the great assemblages which have greeted them at the concert halls, has been the effect of the incidental and impromptu stage. A Town of St. at 10 Downing St. and on various other occasions they have sung themselves into the hearts of the people. On the Continent they have also been greeted with much enthusiasm. In Berlin and Hamburg the chair received such an ovation that for an hour after the regular program the table was back again. In Dresden they noted that the lights of the hall had to be turned out before the enthusiastic audience would leave the building. On May 23, the Hampton Institute Quartette composed of Winfield E. Creekmur, James A. Bailley, Jeremiah Thomas and John H. Wainwright, sailed for England where a series of meetings has been held in England and Scotland in England and Scotland with a few on the continent. This quartette is famous throughout this country for its beautiful renditions of spirituals. The Ohio Pen Leads Washington, D. C. —Ohio, alto ranking sixth in population, has more prisoners in its four state prisons than any other state in the Union, Congressman Carl G. Bachman of W. Virginia, Republican, told the House of Representatives, today. The Buckeye State leads with 8,806 prisoners—a prison population greater than the combined prison populations of Kansas, Oregon, South Ridges Island, Delaware, Arizona, New Mexico, South Dakota, Maine, Idaho, Vermont, West Virginia, North Dakota, Utah, Nevada and New Hampshire. The influx of 1917 and later from the South, furnished a large number of the inmates. HON. CHESTER C. BOLTON. U. S. House of Representatives, Washington, D. C., June 3, '30. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Mr. Smith:—From the item, relative to the appointment of M. A. Campagna as superintendent of specialized employment service for veterans, recently established by the Governing page of your issue of May 31st, I can only assume that you are not aware of the facts in the case. Consequently, I am writing to advise you that Mr. Campagna is a World War Veteran who honorably and actively served his country during that struggle, and you may be in wonderment that you were concerned there was no thought of recommending other than a World War veteran. I am sure you would not intentionally give your readers the wrong impression and that is what prompts me to write you in this manner. If you desire a service record of Mr. Campagna I will be pleased to see that you receive it. Very truly yours, Chester C. Bolton. Congressman Bolton's Mistake. June 5, 1930 Hon. Chester C. Bolton, Washington, D. C. Dear Sir:—Your letter of June 3, '20, just received, making clear the fact that you have not read carefully the publication in my paper of May 31, '30, to which your letter refers. That you may do so I am enclosing the article referred to being careful to underscore the sentences you apparently have overlooked. In your letter you write. "You may be interested to know that so far as I was concerned there was no thought of recommending other than a World War veteran." There was positively nothing in the article in question that gave any other impression than is carried in the foregoing. Indeed, our publication but paralleled it; made the same impression and did not give our impression on your impression. It is difficult for me to imagine how you could possibly misunderstand our publication. In conclusion I wish to again suggest that you see to it that Superintendent M. A. Campagna gives one or more of the Afro-American World War veterans places in the clerical force of the World War Veterans local employment bureau. Very truly yours, Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette. The Article Referred To. The Article Referred to. M. A. Campagna, for several years connected with the city employment agency, has been recommended by Congressman Bolton as superintendent of the World War Veterans employment bureau, be opened here this month, a dispatch from Washington states. The bureau will be part of the U. S. department of labor employment service. Bolton recommended the appointment of Miss Millie Millman as secretary of the agency, which is to serve ex-service men under a $100,000 appropriation made by Congress, a few weeks ago. What's the matter with recommending some of our war veterans for appointment in the agency or bureau, Mr. Bolton? They, too, are entitled to such recognition. The Gazette of May 31, '30. Mr. Bolton's Reply. Washington, D. C., June 10, '30. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Dillon Carlette, Cleveland, Dear Mr. Smith:—Your letter of the 5th has arrived and in reply can only say that I thought you had in mind all World War. veterans and not one particular group. According to my information there is to be just a superintendent and one stenographer in the Veterans Employment office at Cleveland and of course those positions are already filled. Very truly yours, Chester C. Bolton. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS INTERESTING REMINISCENCE INTERESTING REMINISCENCE WRITTEN BY THE HON. JOSEPH COLUMBUS MANNING JUST BEFORE HIS DEATH, RECENTLY. Meets a Southern Friend of His Youth After Many Years in the "Empire City"—One of Many to Come North on Manning's Suggestion—How We Help One Another, Etc. New York City.—Marcellus Owens, just plain Cellus down there in a small town in Alabama, was earning and getting as much as four or five dollars a week driving a doctor around in those days of horses and buggies. Cellus was then sixteen and he was graduated as a doctor. He was soon graduated as a doctor's handy boy into a clothes pressing business. Then he and I got to know each other better. I found out that this young colored man had no future hanging around in a small town or wasting a life in Alabama. I began to tell him about the North and to unfold to him facts as to wider opportunity and broader expression for his manhood. I went away. Not many years ago an arm reached out and a hand was patting me on the back while I was greeted in the Pennsylvania station here. It was none other than Marcellus Owens. This friend had grown to be a large sized man. He was New York accustomed and attuned, but I knew it was Cellus the moment I saw him. "I just have to talk some with you," my old friend said to me, and we walked to where we could find a seat and be alone. "I owe my being up here and making good wages to you, Mr. Manning, for you put it into my mind to come North. I am going home to the old folk, and I feel like I am a man up here just like you used to tell me I would feel." 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.

We got out the door by the train load," and soon they A. B. were. Don't overlook the fact that nothing just happens. Behind all of that persistent and continuous writing of ours on the subject of "Negro Migration from the South" was the wish and the will to get the word to the oppressed people of the South in the way best that I knew of to get the word to them. Colored relatives are, as a rule, mighty fine in their own language in our opinion. Those doing pretty well in the North help those in the South to follow on up here. Those who come help others to come. It is now at work. There are thousands of colored folks in the North, who, like Owens, send money back to the old home folk. I really think that colored people make greater sacrifices for their own than do white people. I think that many of the instances of solicitude of colored children for the old folk back home, entitles them to first rank in world civilization. I say children in the sense of sons and daughters, of course. To the old father and mother back home "these are my children." DOINGS OF THE RACE. Rev. Emmet Jones, of Bogalusa, La., died in the pulpit on a recent Sunday. He had just said, "Follow the work of God." Rev. J. B. Hardesty, of Martinsburg, W. Va., stabbed Thos. E. Brown in the head with a pocket knife in a fight, last week. An old grudge caused the bout. Some "minister." Hon. Wm. H. Lewis, age 62, former Assistant U. S. Atty. General, won a prohibition test case in U. S. Supreme court, May 26. He is a leading Boston attorney. Atty. Lewis was a Harvard University football star. Mrs. Emily Scherzel (white), age 44, a California artist born in Missouri, and John T. Veasy of Brooklyn, N. Y., a gardener, were married in the chapel of the municipal building, Brooklyn, N. Y., last week Monday afternoon, and are on their honeymoon. Miss Curtis Miller, senior high student of Fort Valley, (Va.) Industrial school, won the Elks $1,000 college scholarship prize in a regional oratorical contest held at Allen University, Columbia, S. C., for Florida, North and South Carolina. On May 9, the eighth annual pilgrimage to the immortal John Brown's grave at Lake Placid, N. Y. was made by our John Brown Memorial Association, Dr. Max Barber of the pres. That date was the 130th anniversary of the martyr's birthday. White men and women, slaves of black Africans, have been found in the heart of Africa in a native village of the Kalahari desert. They descendants of early Dutch prisoners who trekked into that section and were captured by a wandering tribe, say government officials of South Africa. 1.

Scott, Hawkins, Overton, Abbott, Vann and Martin ought to hang "that Scroll of Distinction" given them by Wills' mythical "Citizens' committee of Ohio" in their closets or cellars. It surely must be a distressing joke for them. The best way "to curb mobs and lynchings" is for the state to enact a mob violence act or anti-lynching law like our Ohio law. There were more mob-violence attempts and lynchings in Ohio in the three or four years prior to 1896, when our law was enacted, than have occurred in all the thirty-four years since. For the information of the editor of The Chicago Defender, The Gazette desires to say that Joseph Columbus Mahning, recently deceased, was never a member of the U. S. Congress, but was a member of the Alabama State Assembly. Yes, Mr. Manning did die "in bed," but because he left his native state (Alabama) when he did, many years ago. It was his stand there in the interest of fairness and justice to all without reference to race or class or color, that caused his virtual exile from family, home and state. CENTRAL AVE. SERVICE. Editors, "The News," "The Press," and "The Plain Dealer." Dear Sirs: —The Central Ave. street-car line is a paying one but its earnings can be materially increased if its cars were run a little offender and routed up E. 9th St. to Prospect Ave., then west to E. Second St., south on E. Second St. and E. Fourth St. past the Market, back to Central Ave. This would attract hundreds of more people to Central market because of the convenience of loading their heavy baskets at the market-doors, and transferring at either E. 30th, E. 55th or E. 79th Sts. to any part of the city east. I verily believe that this would double the earnings of the Central Ave. line. It is much easier to walk to the market from E. 9th St. or from Prospect Ave. with an empty market basket than to walk that distance from the market with a full one, and especially so for many poor women. I wish very much that Tractioner Ballou and Council's transportation committee would give this suggestion the careful thought it surely is entitled to. The Central Ave. line runs thru the heart of the city and is certainly entitled to better service than a car every twelve or fifteen minutes during most of the day and evening. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette. CREDULOUS LEADERS! Lynchings are on the increase. Thus the South has started so soon to get ready for the next presidential campaign, both in this way and in punishing Hoovercrats like they have done in Virginia and North Carolina. The split in the solid South that featured the last presidential campaign will not repeat in the next. This is now perfectly clear we hope to President Hoover and the national leaders of the Republican party who have already sacrificed entirely too much in a vain effort to win the South or an appreciable portion of it. For many years the "illy-white" Republicans of that section of the country have managed to get control of more or less southern federal patronage by fooling the leaders of the party into believing that a permanent split in the solid South was possible. The injection of the religious issue in the last national campaign, and that alone, caused the split referred to and we doubt if even that could repeat in the face of the recent experience of Hoovercrats in Virginia and North Carolina. All of which ought to cure national leaders of the Repub- --- ilican party who have been so credulous as to become easy victims of the designing "illy-whitees" of the South who for years have promised electoral votes in return for the control of southern federal patronage, all of which they refuse our voters of that section of the country, the back-bone of Republicanism wherever it exists there. Hoovercrats, you know, are really "illy-white Republicans" and renegade Democrats WHAT'S DOING! A HEAR! HEAR!! When Alex. H. Martin killed Mr. Emmett Meade's motion (in an East End Republican club meeting, some weeks ago) to commit the organization as asking the ousting of Colorline Welfare Director Dudley Blossom, he simply and politically murdered any chance he may have had to be nominated or elected a Common Pleas judge of this county, this fall. It is strange, but nevertheless true—Alexander Martin as a candidate has always managed to get in his own way. There is no future for the W. F. N. in Cleveland, and all who are inclined to lean that way had better "sear" this fact "in the very marrow of their bones" as well as incasing it in "the innermost section of their hearts." This statement is "common meter," too. The League After Abc. The Citizens' League in its weekly bulletin, "Greater Cleveland," for June 5 says: "The Civil Service commission illegally authorized temporary appointment of Abe Crum, former superintendent of garbage collection, as chief street-permit inspector, salary, ($3,000), which should have filled by promotional examination. Crutch when superintendent fired Bernstein, Rosenblatt and Dana English, early, last fall (all members of the local Republican organization), to please the then City Manager, Wm. "City Hospital" Hopkins, English is an "Afro." Crutch did this in the face of the fact that he owed his appointment as superintendent to Messrs. Maschke, Councilman Finkle and Atty. Alex H. Bernstein, leader of Ward 12. He appointed Ormond Forte his assistant. That is why Forte, too, supported the government of Messrs. Maschke's side of last fall's political contest. In doing this, both Crutch and Forte opposed the election of "The Blossom Triplets" and all the other Republican organization candidates on the ticket. Forte should be replaced at once and Crutch "fired" again. This time for good. The Fight on Fleming and Finkle Two if not three of "The Blossom Triplets" are collaborating in the fight on former Councilman Thos. W. Fleming and his wife, Mrs. Letha C. Fleming, for the leadership of ward 11. Councilman "Larry Payne, who lives in the ward and covets the leadership, is being actively assisted in this fight by Councilman "Roy" Bundy of the 17th ward and possibly the other "triplet," Councilman Clayborne George of the fourth district. Last week Mr. Snowmong's daily Daily Plain Dealer arrived another several articles of a like nature given to it and other daily papers in recent months by Bundy principally, which made clear again the fact that what "The Triplets" are really after is to "unhorse" not only the Flemings but also Councilman Herman Finkle and Alex. H. Bernstein, leader of ward 12. And what a fine time they will have trying to do this! They will never succeed, as "Bernstein and Finkle" are "superleaders" among our people in ward 12 and in that section of the city, and will be long after "The Blossom Triplet" are filled from the logical map something that is now scheduled to something that is now placed next year, in the fall-time. The Dean Dealer's statement, that "a new leadership has arisen among the citizens" a triumvirate—composed of Councilmen LeRoy N. Bundy, Clayborne George and Payne ("The Blossom Triplets"), are the bunk. Individuals, who all three-named councilmen, who have the loyalty to the race and their pledges to their constituents can never lead our people of the third and lead our people of the third city of Cleveland. As long as "colored citizens of that section do their own thinking," "Negroes," as subservient and as plaint tools as the Blossom Triplets have themselves to be, will never constitute a "leadership" for our citizens of their districts, or others in that neck of the woods. There is much other "influence" in and out of wards 11 and 12, other than that of "Bernstein and Finkle" that is being "used to help Mrs. Fleming" and her husband against any and all of the Blossom Triplets. This too, regardless of the regard Fleming as the figure-head of a crumbling monarchy which has out-lived its predecessor. Fine language for Bundy to be using in his conversation with a political writer of The Plain Dealer, isn't it? If he and Payne were capable of realizing how thoroughly disgusted with them the great majority of our people of the third district alone are, they would have incipient heart failure.

NICK ON ANY FIFTY-DOLLAR OFFERS TONIGHT UNLESS WE HAVE THE OLD SLUG WORKING, THAT GUY KNOCKED ME FLAT LAST NIGHT WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THE SLUG? YOU KNOW THE GUY BEHIND THE CURTAIN WHO PUTS THE SLUG ON THE BOY WHEN I PUSH HIS HEAD INTO IT. ALL RIGHT GUY ITS DANGEROUS IF THEY CATCH US WHY DID YOU LET THAT BOOG PUSH YOU INTO THE CURTAIN AND HOW DID THE SOCKER KNOW IT WAS YOUR EGG? Our mor-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 uphold the constitutionality of the law and it has been Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence 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 2.7). The term "lynching injury" for the purpose of this chapter shall include such inquiry as per manually or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 2.9) 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 assaulted 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 not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in persecution by the hood 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, 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, share and share alike, the widow rejoices, and the child shares. 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 shall not be a part of the estate of the person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (83 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 be communicated within years from the date of such lynchings, 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 include it with the costs of action, in 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 donor for such recourse (93 v. 162 10). 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 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.) 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: IBS. od. representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. just member of mob just 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 encaused while a member of the 17th General Assembly, in 1894: The Code of Ohio: Sen. 12411 Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee 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 facilities or privileges which 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 fifty dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be re-arrested 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.

HOW TO PREPARE CAR FOR SUMMER Proper Attention Now Will Insure Freedom From Many Troubles. (By W. S. ISHERSOOD.) After short and slow running under winter conditions a thorough checkup of the car is advisable at this time in order to guarantee a spring and summer of carefree operation. Assuming that the car has come through a hard winter's service in fairly good mechanical shape the service operation should proceed in this order: First, clean the engine, chassis and body thoroughly. Check to see that spring clips are tight; take up any excess play of spring shackles. Clean Steering Gear. Clean and grease steering gear; check front wheel alignment, after adjusting the wheel bearing and filling the hub caps with fresh grease; see that the nuts holding rear wheels to the axle are tight and fastened with a cotter pin. Drain the old oil from the transmission and rear end, and put about a quart of kerosene or flushing oil in each. Put a couple of handfuls of sat soda in the radiator and run the car for a few miles until it is well warmed up. The soda cleans out the scales and rust in the radiator while the kerosene will loosen and wash out the old oil in the transmission and differential. Drain these as soon as you stop, then drain the water from the radiator and flush with fresh water. Remove the cylinder head and scrape out all the carbon and grind the valves. Now a new gasket when you put back the head—it makes a better job and no chance of leaks. New rubber hose on all the water connections is well worth while, too. Fill the radiator with fresh water and start the engine. Run slowly till warmed up. Valve tappings should be adjusted, motor being warm while this is being done. Follow the manufacturing recommendations for clearances. Oil the starting motor and generator, and check for proper summer charging rate, as covered by latest instructions by manufacturers of the ignition system; this may prevent a damaged battery due to overcharging on long fast summer trips. Overhead Spark Plugs. Clean the breaker points in the distributor and set them to their proper opening. Clean the spark plugs. To clean spark plugs simply fill the lower part of the plug with alcohol and allow to stand for a few seconds; take a piece of wire covered with one thickness of cloth and rub the carbon from the insulator then wipe clean and dry thoroughly before replacing in the engine. Clean spark points with emery cloth or a knife. If plugs are badly sooted or points worn to any degree, install a new set. Clean off all the ignition wires and see that the contacts are tight. Clean the storage battery with ammonia water, or ordinary baking soda (one teaspoonful to one cupful of water), tighten the terminals and coat them with vaseline or grease. Be sure that the battery is securely held in place. Check the liquid level and add distilled water if necessary. With these servicing items attended to you should have ahead of you a summer of carefree driving, free from all mechanical troubles and annoyances. THE MOTOR QUIZ (How Many Can You Answer?) Q. What is the effect on tires of a bent steering knuckle, broken spring, bent spindle, dragging brake, or loose wheel? Ans. Any of these will cause uneven wear. Q. What usually causes hard steering? Ans. As a rule lack of oil, misalignment of front wheels, or low pressure in front tires. Q. What is a good way to start a stubborn engine? Ans. First pull out the choke and press the starter for a brief period without turning on the ignition, this forces raw gas into the cylinders. Then turn on the switch, step on the starter, and push in the choke. If the battery, spark plugs, and breaker points are in proper shape this should make starting easy. Q. If placed end to end, how far would one days' average production of American automobiles extend? Ans. Approximately 45 miles. Novel Camping Trailer Made Quite Convenient A novel camping trailer has been produced in England which is hailed with delight by lovers of the outdoors. NW 2040 INTERNATIONAL Handy for Campers. The trailer, compact, when closed, is attached to the rear of the automobile. When opened, as shown above, it contains plenty of head-room for preparation of food, and for sleeping. AUTOMOBILE NOTES Negligence will shorten the life of the best tire. Eighty-five per cent of the rubber output of the United States goes into our automobiles. Famous last words: "There seem to be two lights ahead. I'll just steer between them." American motorists, it is estimated, used 14,000,000,000 gallons of gasoline in 1920—a lake five miles wide and four miles deep. A "celluloid sandwich." That's the new shatterproof glass that appears destined for general adoption by the automobile industry. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1930 INTERESTING TREND IS OBSERVED TOWARD EMBROIDERED FABRICS THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY MILLINERS CALL ATTENTION TO BANDEAU HATS AND UNDERTRIMS So it is that on many summer ha flowers or ribbon bows are decorati brims sort the FASHIONS at afternoon parties and other daytime social affairs are resplendent with the motifs, fabrics, colors and the general gaiety so characteristic of the 1930 modes. An interesting trend observed at these "dressy" afternoon occasions is the use of embroidered fabrics. It will be seen by the sketches herewith that we are slipping back gracefully to a designfulness, so far as materials are concerned, which for sometime past has been omitted from the style program. We refer to the application of embroidery floss in decorative motifs on plain backgrounds, also embroidered eyelet effects. For the costume to the left in the illustration the designer chooses one of the very new embroidered fabrics—crisp linen in this instance, the pattern worked in soft durene yarns of subtle luster and extremely clear and buoyant colors. The formal afternoon frock to the left seen at Alken, where the sun shines brightly and garden parties are consequently in order, illustrates MILLINERS CALL A BANDEAU HAT BANDEAU hat—it's the latest! Now that crowns have become so exceedingly shallow something had to be done to give the hat its proper lilt and tilt. Volla! le bandeau, tres chle!. One might even go so far as to say that the revival of the bandeau is proving the sensation of the season in millinery circles. Certain it is that the introduction of bandeau types is changing the whole aspect of things in the realm of vogish headwear. Wherefore it behooves the style-minded to become bandeau-conscious without delay, for leading modistes are working the idea for all it is worth in connection with their newest creations. Between bandeaux and bandeaux there is a difference, in that in ye olden days the bandeau posed at the back of the colfure. Whereas in the light of modern times it has moved to the front, lifting the brim gracefully from the forehead so as to more becomingly reveal the hair. This new contour has resulted in a revived inter-uterbrim trimming. the revival of sheer batiste with eyelets embroidered in softly sparkling durene, which by the way is a new nationally used term referring to an improved method of mercerizing cotton. Durened cotton is stronger, more sparkling and more porous than ordinary cotton. The use of the uneven peplum should be noted in the sketch at the right. It flares up in the front while the long skirt line remains even. The handkerchief cape is removable, leaving the frock with a definite sleeveevel dinner-gown character. These sketches point to more than one good fashion lesson—contrast in frocks and wraps for afternoon, both normal and high waistlines, hats, coats and shoes matching or their color harmonies contrasting the tone coloring of the costumes with which they are worn. Vogue for the handbag, which is of the same material as one's gown, is accented in the figure to the right. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (© 1930, Western Newspaper Union.) ATTENTION TO HATS AND UNDERTRIMS So it is that on many summer hats flowers or ribbon bows are decorating brims next the face. The sketches herewith suggest several new bandeau and under-trim trends. The first large black open-work straw hat is draped upon a bandeau of black velvet ribbon the sameying in a perl little bow at the back. Centered at the top is one of those dainty wispes of a hat, being of transparent hair braid, the ribbon and hat all in monote pale beige. A cluster of lilies of the valley is placed at the right next the face as a trimming for the shapely little draped panamalauque straw hat that is shown to the right. White or pink gardenias also are posed effectively on underbrims of navy or black hats. Brims lifted and tilted on their own crowns as pictured center to left present a new silhouette which appeals to the younger set. Both bandeau and an undertrim of flowers achieves the chic and the picturesque for the handsome jace straw hat in the center. The two hats below exploit attractive underbrim trims of wide taffeta ribbon, accenting the new underbrim effects. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (@, 1930, Western Newspaper Union.) Of the Cincinnati Division of The U. N. B. State- Statement of Facts. Cincinnati, O. — President Wm. Ware of the local division of the U. N. I. A. has issued the following interesting and timely statement: "The FACTS as to why I am taking out an INJUNCTION against the group of members who pulled out from Cincinnati Division, No. 146, of The Universal Negro Improvement Association, incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio, and who are functioning as an unincorporated body: I am doing this so that the public of Cincinnati and vicinity will not be misled by malicious and and is being propagated the has been and is being propagated by v's of the members of the group. Some of them are saying that I am against Mr. Garvey merely because I do not agree with some of his methods of doing things. But, one can be against the ideas and methods of an individual without being against the individual. I honestly believe that Mr. Garvey is a God-sent man, and I don't believe that anyone could convince me otherwise. I know that the principles of the University are sublime and in them lies the salvation of the Negro race. For eleven years I have been espousing and advocating the true and sacred principles of the Association and at that some of the short-sighted and underminding members who were once allied with the Association in Cincinnati Division. No. 146, have accused me of being disloyal and dishonest to the Hon. Marcus Garvey, and a traitor of the worst sorrow to the race that I have been allied with the money and purchased valuable properties for myself, and also sold out the Cincinnati Division to a certain white gentleman. Some of them have even gone to the courts here to see if the records would reveal properties in my name and not being able to find this to be true, they circulated the false propaganda to the effect that the same was in the name of one of my daughters and grandchildren although the records of the courts do not show where any properties were ever purchased in their names. Now, there are many virtues involved in the matter at issue. They are: The principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, my good name, character and worldwide reputation as a race man. Therefore, I do not intend to allow anyone to drag these virtues in the gutter, as it were; nor will I allow this stigma to be placed on my children and grandchildren, which might be a disadvantage to them all through life, without trying to offset same and an expectant my years of experience, loyal and miring service and sacrifice for this organization. I might state further, that after certain investigations shall have been made someone has got to account for the scandalous and sedious propaganda that has been and is being circulated against me in an attempt to injure my high-standing and world-wide reputation as an advocate of right and justice for my race. It is my honest belief that the Hon. Marcus Garvey is unaware of the treacherousness of certain individuals and groups who are thus trying to divide the organization for their own personal profit and benefit. I has never been his intention to have different groups split up in different little groups but it has always been his policy to organize the Negro and not have them divided into different factions, one fighting against the other. William Ware, President, Cin'ti Div. Incorporated, Universal Negro Improvement Association. OUR GOLD STAR MOTHERS. The protest of fifty-five of our Gold Star mothers, filed, last week, with President Hoover, against their "jim-crow" segregation on a pilgrimage to their sons' and husbands' graves in European cemeteries and battle fields, was followed promptly with an announcement from the War Department, issued thru Acting Secretary Davidson, to the effect that "the racial grouping decided upon after the most careful consideration of the interests of the pilgrims themselves would be observed." This was intended to forestall, if possible, any favorable consideration by President Hoover of our Gold Star mothers' protest. Davidson added that "there was no discrimination whatever between the various groups; each group to receive equal accommodations, care and consideration," and that, "separation into groups was necessary to provide suitable accommodations for all." All of which is nothing but hokum, pure and simple. It is true that the white Gold Star mothers who made and will make the pilgrimage to Europe were divided into groups, but not on racial grounds as in the case of our Davidson's hokum seeks. In wait to cover up. It surely ought not to fool President Hoover, as intended, who has only to speak the right word to convince Acting Secretary Davidson that his "racial grouping" will not be permitted. Will the Presidic t speak the words? We shall soon learn. When Undertaker Alvin C. Gibbs received a letter, late Wednesday, saying he would find the body of a woman at 5715 Central Ave., he went to the address and found Mrs. Mary Harris, age 50, hanging from a chandelier. Gibbs said the letter was from the dead woman. Police cut down the body and took it to Charity hospital, where it was said life had been extinct for hours. According to them, Mrs. Harris had been brooding over her continued ill health. THAT "SCROLL OF DISTINCTION Cleveland, June 3, 1930. Mr. Chas. W. Greene, 129 Southern Ave., Springfield, O. Dear Friend:— I have been unable to learn of any regularly constituted citizens' committee, local or otherwise, purported to have J. Walter Wills, Sr. as chairman and Norman L. McGhee as secretary, that is alleged to have issued the "Scroll of Distinction" to Dr. Emmett J. Scott and Dr. John R. Hawkins of Washington, D. C., Anthony Overton and Robert S. Abbott of Chicago, Robert L. Vann of Pittsburgh and Alex. H. Martin of this city. As a matter of fact, persons alleged to have been members of said committee, have very readily assured me that they had no knowledge whatever, previous to May 31, 1930, of Wills' alleged citizens' committee authorizing him, or anyone Dr. Emmett J. Scott. else, to issue anything of the kind, beyond a "large folder invitation" sent to them prior to May 31, 1930, by Wills. Therefore, the "Scroll of Distinction" given to the individuals named in the foregoing, is practically worthless because it represents the opinion, as far as Cleveland and Ohio are concerned, of but one or two persons. It certainly is a queer proceeding, to say the least, and takes what seems to me to be a very unfair advantage of Messrs. Hawkins, Scott, Abbott, Overton, Vann and possibly Martin. "The citizens of Ohio have" NOT "selected the persons named," or others, "from a growing line of leaders who have rendered and are rendering exceptional service in their respective fields, as worthy of marked commendation and honor." As an exhibition of "nerve," the issuance of those "Scrolls of Distinction" is about the most stupendous ever seen or heard of in the section of the country. Trusting you are in good health and with best wishes always, I am sincerely, Yours for the race. OFFERS HER $100,000.
