WHAT'S DOING!
The
ROUNDER
HEAR! HEAR!!
The Seventeenth Ward Republican club (Bundy, leader), announced, Wednesday, that it would support Arthur H. Day for the Republican nomination for county prosecutor, despite the fact that Maurice Maschke, Republican leader, was opposed to Day's candidacy. Mr. Maschke, who supported Day in 1928, is now the vice president of the Creeksland Bar association, George B. Harris, whom Day defeated in 1928. The local Republican organization is also supporting Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch whom "The Blossom Triplets" have declared themselves as being opposed to.
The political writers of the local daily newspapers and The Chicago Defender are surely being furnished a lot of political "hokum" by "The Blossom Triplets," particularly by Bundy, whom no one can take seriously without danger of loss of some kind. Someone ought to "put them wise" as "The Triplets"—the "trumvirate" composed of Councilmen Bundy, George and Payne have furnished fiddles to now be new political ants in and out of the City Council are sure amusing. It is positively a shame for either of them or "The Colored Republican League of Cuyahofa County," an organization largely on paper, to push Atty Louise J. Pridgeon into the race as a candidate for the state legislature. We know she would not knowingly thus harm Representative Perry B. Jackson's effort to be re-nominated for a second term to which he is entitled.
Sunday's Plain Dealer announced that Councilman "Larry" Payne gave Mr. Maurice Maschke, head of the local Republican organization, "four days in which to have Mrs. Fleming withdraw her candidates
11. This ultimatum (a joke) "The Triplet" referred to as "his little red wagon," in a later newspaper interview. At a conference, Sunday morning, in which "The Blossom Triplets" participated, it developed that they were not unanimous in their alleged "demand" of the day previous that in return for their votes for the election of Hermann E. Kohen to be counselor, M. Marrice Maschke promise to appoint a member of the race to the Municipal Court bench, this fall, when vacancies occur, because at least one of the three refused to become a party to the demand. Furthermore, Gov. Myers Y. Cooper would make the appointment and not Mr. Maschke. The governor has yet to appoint a member of our race to a position of governor, and that Bundy and Payne, particularly, are in so bad with the leaders of the local Republican organization and are unable to take care of their friends as they should have done long ago. When they laid down in the Blossom matter, they "threw a shoe" that has sure crippled them from a political viewpoint and will continue to do so until the are forced to admit that they "mess up" about everything they attempt and seem to revel in foolish and senseless "moves." "Arousmit 'em!"
That silly "gesture" of "the Blossom Triplets," given so much newspaper notoriety, Saturday and Sunday, by the local daily newspapers, relative to holding up the election of Atty. Herman E. Kohen (Repub.) as the successor of Councilman John M. Sulzmann (Dem.), proved the veriest of boomerangs — absolutely nothing to it except the newspaper noise made as a result of silly talk about the aforementioned daily newspapers imagined there was going to be "somethin' doin'." Their foolish talk about forcing Mr. Maurice Maschke, head of the Republician organization, to secure the appointment of Willie Green, or anyone else, as judge of the Municipal court, this fall, when vacancies occur, was also promptly taken back and swallowed by The Triplets. (Councilman Paul Pace, for fine chance they had of doing anything of the kind. Really, those individuals are amusing, and do not yet know "what it is all about." One thing, however, are surely doing, and that is daily losing scores
SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS
CLOSES "OPEN (?) FORUM"
AND EMBARRASSES A HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL PROF. GEORGE A. JOHNSON.
A District of Columbia Attorney and Realtor Who "Calls a Spade a Spade"—The Fourteenth Amendment Quoted!
Wilmington, Del.—Reference to the President and the Congress as "official law breakers" threw a bombshell into the "Open-Door Forum" at Howard High School, on a recent Sunday. Atty. Thos. H. a Republican, D.C. C. realtor and a war veteran, was the speaker. As he specified the lawless activities of the President and Congress, Prof. George A. Johnson, principal of the school, interrupted, saying that while he agreed in part with what Mr. Clarke had said, in general his remarks were too political and embarrassing to the administration of the school. He asked Mr. Clarke to explain the political. Mr. Clarke expressed his regrets that his remarks were proving embarrassing to the school administration but added: "I challenge anybody in the state of Delaware to disprove the statements I have made here, this afternoon; but rather than further embarrass the school administration as them to have done, I will stop now."
the meeting terminated abruptly with the announcement by Chairman Johnson that Editor W. E. B. DuBois, of New York City, a Socialist, would be the next speaker of the "open" forum.
Mr. Clarke is a former lieutenant in the American army having served in the Spanish American war. In his address he referred to the President and the Congress as official law-breakers, adding that the President sent troops to Haiti and ousted the government in that country and that there never had been an enforcement of the 17th and 15th Amendments which give the Afro-American the right to vote and finally, that in spite of its Constitutional guarantee for freedom of speech, police had broken up 536 peaceful gatherings in this country in recent weeks.
"What do you think of a President who has sworn to defend the Constitution against all enemies and then proceeds to announce 'I'll appoint no colored men to office in communities where such appointments are objectionable to white people'?" The Constitution. Why they were even so ashamed of the institution of slavery that in the days of drafting
LAKE ERIE STEAMERS
ATTRACT MOTORISTS!
Auto tourists will be interested in the announcement that on and after June 20, C. & B. Line Steamer "City of Erie" will be in daily service between Cleveland and Port Stanley, Ontario, Canada. "The Cleveland-Port Stanley Canadian Division of the C. & B. Line has proven especially popular with autoists," says P. J. Swartz, general manager of the line. "And since early in the spring our office has been flooded with inquiries as to when daily steamer service to Port Stanley would start." The city has already opened a Route to Canada" from northern Ohio, as it is only 87 miles across Lake Erie between these two ports. Whether the vacation is to be over the week-end or for a longer period, you can drive your car on board a luxurious C. & B. Line steamer at Cleveland and save many miles of hard-driving over crowded highways. "Steamer "City of Erie" sails each midnight at 12 o'clock. Staterooms are available at 10 p. m. And after a night's rest, one arrives at Port Stanley. You can see the picturesque Ontario Provinces where fishing, canoeing, golf and all outdoor sports hold sway. Scenic auto trails lead in every direction from Port Stanley into the heart of this land of lakes, rivers, forests, summer resorts and camps. If time

PEGGY KISSES PAUL
PREJUDICES FOOLISH.
London, Eng.—Miss Peggy Ashcroft, England's most brilliant young actress who is playing "Desdemona" to Paul Robeson's "Othello" in London, these days, and packing the theatre daily and nightly says: "Racial prejudices are foolish at the best of times, but I think it is positively absurd that they should ever come into consideration where acting is concerned." Peggy kisses Paul in several love scenes of the play. Continuing she says: "I see no difference in being kissed by Paul Robeson than being kissed by any other man. It is just necessary to the play. I look on it as a real privilege to act with a great artist like Paul Robeson. I have known him and his wife for a time, and I like and admire them immensely." The London Daily Sketch, which published the foregoing quoted paragraphs, also contained the following:

While Councilman Clayborne George was getting several traffic lights for his district, he might have done something better by securing improved service for his constituents on both the Central and Scovill Ave. lines. He started to do this, about two years ago, but didn't "get any-where" for some reason or other.
---
Judge Mary B. Grossman, who does not seem to "love" our people, judging from various reports we have had during the last few years, sought to give Assistant Police Prosecutor Roger Dillard, "a ride" in open court, one day last week, saying that a case he was handling showed "a lack of able prosecution". Roger insisted and still insists that the "lack" was one "of proper evidence" and not one that could be "tacked up" to him as Miss Grossman apparently sought to do. Chief Police Prosecutor Schultz says Dillard "is competent" and that he had been "appointed after six years" experience as an attorney. In the face of the facts set forth herewith, Schultz's statement, coupled with Roger's, ought to be more convincing than the statement of Judge Mary B. Grossman, and we have an idea that it will be, too.
NO "JIM CROW Y".
No; Cleveland should not have a "jim-crow Y," and more than that is not going to have one, either. This answers a question. Any of our young men, "those living in the city and those coming to the city," who wish "a place with wholesome environment (in which) to stay" and cannot be satisfied with one other than in a "jim-crow Y," can pass on to "Columbus and even smaller cities" burdened with such a pest. That kind of a "jim-crow Negro" is not needed or wanted in Cleveland. "Pittsburgh has no colored teachers in its public schools. Yet Pittsburgh has a colored Y. M. C. A." That explains why Pittsburgh has no colored teachers in its public schools. "Cleveland has many colored teachers (over one hundred) in its public schools" because it has steadily refused to permit the establishment of a "jim-crow Y," the entering wedge to separate schools and much other vitally harmful segregation in every community where one is tolerated. The Cedar Boys' "Y" was not "established as a substitute" for a "jim-crow Y," but was started to accommodate both boys and adults of all classes and races eligible to admission. Those persons who are "bleeding at the heart" for a "jim-crow Y" should get together and direct their efforts toward seeing "that proper admission is made to the E. 22d branch" (Cleveland Y. M. C. A. headquarters), or go on back "down home" where they are surfeited with segregation and color lines of all kinds.
Speaking of the government's "jim-crowing" of our Gold-Star mothers enroute to Europe to visit the graves of their sons killed during the World war, our highly esteemed contemporary, The East Tennessee News (Knoxville), says: "It would be far better for these mothers of the Negro racial group to select their traveling companions from the ranks of the race and thereby have mutual consolation as they visit the graves of their sons." This, they would have done even if they had not been "jim-crowed." Continuing The News says: "It is utterly impossible for the government authorities to select associates for these pilgrims, either inter-racial or intra-racial."
But this is exactly what the government has done in "jim-crowning" our Gold-Star mothers. The mistake Editor Webster L. Porter has made is the result of his paying entirely too much attention to the so-
cial phase of the trip. That is a matter that regulates and settles itself. The fact is the U. S. war department, representing the government, has violated a vital principle (in "jim-crowning" our Gold-Star mothers) in giving in to the segregation preachment of the prejudiced white South and prejudiced northerners. It is this very harmful violation, striking at the very heart of our progression as a race, that "very much of the agitation being fomented" is directed against and very properly, too. It was with the keenest regret that we read our esteemed confere's editorial on "Separate Trips for Gold-Star Mothers." We feel sure that it is not his desire to encourage segregation so harmful to our rights, especially when such discrimination is not directed toward any other group or class of American citizens. Surely he would not willingly and knowingly condone segregation that is only calculated to give his own people a lower status, from a citizenship viewpoint, than that enjoyed by every other group or class of citizens in this country.
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 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 this section of the country.
Trusting you are in good health and with best wishes always, I am sincerely
CENTRAL AVE. SERVICE.
Editors. "The News."
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 oftener and routed up E. 9th St. to Prospect Ave., then west to E. Second St., south on E. Second St. and E. Fourth Sts. 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.

To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

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 upheld 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.)
Section 6279. The term "serious 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 3.)
Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.)
Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault occurred, 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 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 five thousand dollars damages 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 allike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor surviving, 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 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 include it with the costs of action, in the case of making that evyer such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and the amount of a legal representative 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:
BIS.
ed.
representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch 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 or disperse such mob. (93 v. 12.11). 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 enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
The Code of Ohio
Senate 1241 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 accommodated advantages, facilities or privileges, and is defined 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 hundreds dollars to the person aggrieved for infringement 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.

"Keeps your complexion youthful"
CHILDREN will fret, and often for no apparent reason. But there's always Castoria! As harmless as the recipe on the wrapper; mild and bland as it tastes. Yet its gentle action will soothe a younger more surely than a more powerful medicine.
That's the beauty of this special children's remedy! It may be given the infant, as often as there is need. In cases of cold diarrhea or similar disturbance, it is invaluable. A coated tongue calls for just a few drops to ward off constipation; so does any suggestion of bad breath. Whenever children don't eat well, don't rest well, or have any little upset—this pure vegetable preparation is usually all that's needed.

Seats for the annual event call for prices once the theater running as high as $500 for a box. Many of the nobility in London were present, and every member of the royal family except the Prince of Wales.

CHARACTER.
Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a riper growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For forty-eight years The Gazette, under its present management, has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser.
EDITOR.
IS IT ANY USE TO CON- TEND, FOR URIGHT?
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 one of the universes 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-reflect and have the world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race.
Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Boston (Mass.) Guardian.

It's annoying to powder up for the day and then find that in a few hours the shine is back again. When you use Poro Peroxide Vanishing Cream first you avoid this trouble because this cream gives smoothness to the skin and prepares it so that powder adheres much longer. Also contains pure medicinal hydrogen peroxide — an efficient and absolutely harmless bleaching agent. ▲

Capt. Franczanci Schleifle, one-armed former ace of the German air force, pointing out his invention, a crash absorber, after a demonstration. In one test he sped into a pillar of the Riverside Drive viaduct. Twelfth avenue and One Hundred Thirty-fourth street, New York, at a speed of over thirty miles an hour. The absorber consists of a 30-inch bar of solid rubber attached to the chassis by steel claws or scissors, its lateral extension and recoil spending the impact to right and left before it reaches the chassis. The absorber may then be restored to its proper shape. This was the first United States demonstration of the device which is being used in Europe.

Many Towns a.1 Villages Have Pavements Designed for Horse.
(By E. E. DUFFY.)
Street and road progress has been rapid within the last few years, so rapid that numberless communities are still building pavements that are not at all suited for the heavy influx of automobiles.
Towns and cities the country over are largely equipped with pavements that were designed for the leisurely horse, who reigned when loads and vehicles were light and when bumps and rough spots didn't matter.
Modernize Designs.
Highway authorities are in accord on the thought that every community should modernize street designs and have a rehabilitation program underway with the purposeful replacement of antique highway surfaces by pavements that are both smooth and long wearing.
Aside from the wear and tear that poor pavements inflict on the motorist's car and pocketbook, they also account in a large measure for traffic congestion. Even small towns find that the bulk of the traffic is confined to a few through streets which have been well paved and that countless other streets carry little traffic because of holey, jagged bumpy surfaces.
Spring is in the offing and the havoc of winter is becoming more and more apparent. Chuck holes in inferior street surfaces are as much harbingers of spring as a game of marbles on the corner lot.
Coming of Repair Gang.
Year in and year out the coming of spring means the coming of the street repair gang and the going of tax-payers' money. Most street repairs come out of a community's general funds, and the tax-payer doesn't worry much because the taxpayer isn't levied directly for this repair. But he foots the bill just the same. If street repairs were paid for by direct levies, tax-payers would insist on better pavements.
Modern traffic demands smooth hard surfaces, and where they are not supplied automobile operating costs are high, pavement upkeep is out of line, and satisfaction is conspicuous by its non-presence. In the words of one prominent city official, "Keep repair gangs off the streets by building the repairs into the pavement when the pavement is laid."
Solve Parking Problem by Use of Machin
by Use of Machinery
An automobile parking machine has been developed by engineers in East Pittsburgh, Pa. All that is necessary for a motorist to do is to drive his car onto a platform, pull a lever, obtain a check, and his car is automatically whisked upward out of sight. The device immediately places another empty platform at ground level, ready for another car. When ready to leave, the motorist can push a button corresponding to his check, and his car is delivered to him at ground level almost immediately. The machine consists of two endless chains passing over wheels at the top and bottom. Platforms are suspended be tween these chalks. Each platform provides space for one automobile.
Cars Financed in 1929
Four hundred and eleven automobile financing organizations have reported to the Department of Commerce that 3,441,629 cars were financed during 1920, with an advance of $1,586,819,550. Comparisons for 1928 were not furnished by these firms, in a statement made public by the department, but 325 identical financing concerns reported statistics for 1928 and 1920.

Weather Given as One
Reason for Tire Wear
The prime causes of tire tread wear are high speed, temperature and weather, starting and stopping, and improper inflation.
Speeds can be reduced, tire pressure can be kept at the proper mark, and quick starts and stops can be reduced, it was pointed out.
The weather, naturally, cannot be controlled, and the tire owner who lives in a hot, dry climate must expect to get less mileage than the motorist who lives in a locality where cool and wet weather prevails.
AUTOMOBILE FACT
A rim will cut through the best rubber if the tire is too soft. Maintain the proper pressure and you won't be troubled with rim cuts.
America has an automobile for every seven persons and only one bathtub for every twenty. Which shows our preference for outdoor sports.
"A Texas goat makes a specialty of eating motor tires." We have several unusually tender tires around the garage which are of no further use to us.
It has been predicted that the price of tires is going up. That means that the destruction of tires through underinflation will be more expensive than ever. And you can't maintain the right inflation unless you check your tires with a gauge regularly.

ORGANDIE IS SMART AND MADE UP OVER LACE IT IS EVEN SMARTER
H. signs point to a season
THE FASHION WEEKLY
ALL signs point to a season of triumph for organdie. Evening gowns, as created by leading French couturiers, are the sensation of the present season. Which is interesting, because of the fact that its employment for formal wear lifts organdie out of the simple fabric-for-simple-frocks class to a position of flattering prestige. So it is that organdie in white or colors is exceedingly smart just now for garden party, dine and dance frocks. Worked with lace it is even smarter. The latest whim of fashion is to mount the organdie frock on a lace foundation. The glimmer here and there of lace as revealed through the sheer organdie weave is fascinating.
In creating the gown in the picture the designer poses tiers of circular-cut organdle flouches in minaret fashion over an all-lace foundation slip. When it comes to the quaint fitted bodice, for one brief moment the organdle is omitted in favor of the lace, emphasizing its presence, however, in the fashioning of the little puff sleeves. The huge hair hat also takes up the refrain of organdle in the way of a facing.
Attention is called to the belted-at-the-waltseil ribbon with an old-fashioned round lace-bordered bouquet set primly a bit to one side from whence falls the long streamers. Which goes to show that it is chic these days to dress as they did in the 1830s and thereabout. These naive little clusters of posies are also smart posi-
VOGUE FOR LINEN
THE TAILLEU
THE vogue for linen has now extended to the ensemble costume for town wear. The costume pictured is of brown linen linen. It has a jacket nipped in at the waist and a skirt with pleated side panels, thus achieving the fashionable wide hemline. The blouse also is of linen—a very light handkerchief weight. Petaled tabs extend from the V-neck to the waistline. The hat likewise is of linen. It is all over stitched and has a facing in contrasting color.
The fact that the jacket suit illustrated is of brown linen is very significant from a color as well as a fabric standpoint, for late reports from Paris stress the present and forthcoming vogue for brown, especially exceedingly dark tones.
Than the tailored suit of dark washable material there is nothing smarter this season, with emphasis placed on linen weaves. Jacket and skirt outfits of black linen are especially good-looking. The blouses worn with these sturdy linen two-pieces are of sheerest pastel linens and they are made very frilly and feminine.
In more senses than one this might very properly be referred to as a linen season, for everything is being made of pastel or the dark colored

Organdine for the bridesmaid's frock is the "last word," either posed over lace or made up in most complicated ways, often with a view to achieving a slender silhouette, moving the figure, becoming bouffant below the knees so that the hemline at every move reveals its lace foundation. All the lovely "baby colors" are featured in these organdine frocks.
The color is usually carried into the large picturequees transparent hats via sashes of wide soft satin or velvet ribbon.

EXTENDS TO
R FOR TOWN WEAR
linens from suits, frocks, ensembles and the blouse to hats, handbands and even shoes, for linen pumps matching the sports costume have become a smart item for summer.
Enthusiasm for linen is that keen, women who know how to sew are buying patterns, which are easily available, for the big new floppy linen hats, making up a chapeau to match each of their sports linens. Directions for stitching the crowns and brims in novelty ways lead to very handsome effects for these hats, which add to their charm the practical quality of laundering to perfection.
Not only solid colored linens are sponsored but printed, also embroidered linens flourish in the mode. A black linen embroidered in little all-over motifs makes a stunning jacket suit or pirate blue with white, if color is desired.
The handkerchief linen blouse is a theme of wide interest, inviting a lavishment of fine fagoting or hem-stitching or drawn work, or it may be made up strictly tailored. The most popular sheer linen blouses are in pastels and have huge ruffled or petaled collars designed to wear over the jackets.

Dear Mr. Smith:—From the item,
relative to the appointment of M. A.
Campagna as superintendent of specialized employment service for veterans, recently established in Cleveland, which appeared on the front
page of your issue of May 31st.
I can only assume that you are not
aware of the facts in the case. Con-
tinue to am writing to advise
you that Mr. Campagna will
War Veteran who honorably and
actively served his country during
that struggle, and you may be
interested to know that so far as I
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
the service record of Mr. Campagna
I will be pleased to see that you
receive it.
Very truly yours,

Congressman Bolton's Mistake.

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
underscore the sentences you appear
in your letter. In your letter to me, 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
readers the wrong impression. "It
could be so to imagine how you could possibly so 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.
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 to 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-servicemen under the supervision appointed under 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.

Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O.
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.

The Hon. Chester C. Bolton,
Member of Congress,
Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Bolton:
Your letter of June 10, just re-
ceived (re-printed above) contains
the following:
"I think you had in mind all
World war veterans and not one
particular group."
That is exactly what made me suggest recognition for both groups, since you recommended M. A. Campagna for superintendent of the local World War Veteran Employment Bureau. I do not quite understand how you failed to recommend for secretary or stenographer of the Army, but I did not Afro-American World war veteran rather than giving both appointments to "one particular group." And is Miss Millie Millie the

that can be done at this time for the recognition of Afro-American World war veterans. But when there is a vacancy in either position or the number of employees of the agency is increased, I sincerely trust that you will see that the recognition referred to is given. Very truly yours, Harry C. Smith.
The Truth!
What would cause other people to gnush their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, pile depredations upon us, revile us, abuse us, lie about us, malign us and even impugn our valor and we are not unanimously insulted. It seems impossible to establish unanimity of insult in the black race.—Chicago (Ill.) Whip.
"NOT THE LARGEST, BUT THE BEST!"

Dear Friend:—Long live the Gazette! a welcome friend to the Ricks-Demby family for forty-three years. We boast of being among the oldest continuous subscribers of the Gazette—not the largest but the best in essentials, and the most dependable of race journals.
Wishing you continued good health and success, we are as ever,

Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor, Gazette,
Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it,
I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold!
I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the right of the law to expose it and, if possible, kill you.
I and I have frequently, during the forty-two years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNeils, but when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle,
I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Gazette.
Yours for the right,
John P. Green.
