The ROUNDER
WHAT'S DOING!
The *latest* development in the third district seems to be an incipient effort to gain signatures to recall petitions in the case of Councilman Bundy. A number of his stoutest supporters, last fall, are so thorny disgusted with "The Blossom Triplet" that they are seriously considering his recall. This is interesting.
The daily newspapers, one day last week, announced that there were 600 or more people in attendance upon the Payee meeting, at 4177 Central Ave. the hall will barely add 200 people. This is how Bundy and Payee fool the political writers of the local daily papers. They are continually magnifying and amplifying far too generously for the truth. Oh you "Blossom Triplets", just wait until next year in the fall time!
After six months in office as a councilman from the third district, "Larry" Payne has succeeded in securing just one clerical appointment, and he went out of his district to get a person to fill it, Harvey Atkins, a deputy city clerk, who lives in the fourth councilman district, being the lucky person. It looks like Payne thinks there is no "Afro" intelligent enough in the whole third district to hold such a position. Can it be that he thinks the boys in his ward (the 11th) are "all igamus?"
Twenty-eight for Harris and sixteen for Day, now! What will it be in a week or two—four-four for Harris? Bundy's of out, of luck" again—as usual. He couldn't pick a winner with his eyes open. First, he announced Senator Geo. H. Bender for city manager. Nobody but him did that. Next, he announced Bender for manager of Public Hall. Then, he announced Bender for assistant manager of Public Hall. Still noth' doin', as usual. His latest—for the county president nation. Watch and see it end—as usual, as far as that "Blossom Triplet" is concerned. "Twas ever thus" Of course, you know what the result of the Paye-Bundy vs. Lethia and Tom Fleming fight in Ward 11 will be?
That erratic "Blossom Triplet",
Councilman Roy Bundy, said in speaking of the 17th ward club's endorsement of the candidacy of Attty Arthur H. Day, for county prosecutor: "I am endorsing him with all my body and soul." Rather a queer statement from an individual whose amounts to so little. 18is the usual exhibition, however. Bundy's endorsement of the Day candidacy, as a matter of fact, will hurt it a great deal more than it will help it. This same is true of his and Councilman George's "messing in" the Payne-Fleming fight in ward 11. It has been the choice of the attorney. His effort to become a ward leader addition to serving at councilman shows a disposition to grab too much, in this day and time of new ideas and different alignments. Someone other than Payne should and will be leader of ward 11. The Rounder was reminded the other day of the fact that about the only appointment that Payne has secured, he gave to a man, (Harvey Atkins), who does not have a job, even live in the third councilmanic district, but is a resident of Councilman Clayborne George's bailwick, the fourth district; and that Bundy has been unable to date to place either Dr. O. A. Childress or Clarence Shaw, managers of his campaign, but did get a little job in a county office for his brother. What's become of his Civil Service commission "The Blossom Triplet" claim they promised, many weeks ago, when they "waived" their opposition to the reappointment of Color-Line Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom?
O. That Cake!
"But, judge, I couldn't stop for that traffic light." Cleo Brown, 2179 E. 89th St., told Police Judge Kovachy, Monday. "There was a boy in the back holding a big wedding cake in his arms and the jolt might have ruined it." He would think you should have been more careful with such an important cargo," said the judge "Five dollars and costs."

The Federal Service Endorsing What Judge Parker Said-Tammany Hall—U. S. Senators and Governors Warned—Very Interesting.
(Special to The Gazette)
Jersey City, N. J.—The N. A. A. C. P. led in the fight to prevent the confirmation, as an associate justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina because he had expressed himself as opposed to the Negroes of North Carolina having anything to do with polygamy, but its work has just begun. If it would eliminate from responsible judicial and governmental positions white men who feel as did Judge Parker but are too cowardly to express it. There seems to be a nationwide attitude expressing itself by preventing our people from holding any appointive positions of trust and honor. The federal service has all but put into practice what Judge Parker said. Governors of states, Republican and Democratic, have refrained from appointing colored persons to state positions. The Negro vote that was disfranchised in the South, by keeping them from the ballot-box through intimidation and force, into the North and East but this same vote is disfranchised from holding office even though it votes regularly. This situation is up to our voters in states where they vote.
Tammy Hall is an exception to this rule of preventing Negroes from holding lucrative offices. It has taken the Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi vote that has migrated to New York and has in local and state matters made Democrats of them. The Reconstruction white man's party of the North. The Negro vote added to the northern Democratic vote of white men can make the North Democratic. Will the Negro do it? By political birth. Negroes are Republicans and it is with difficulty that he is prized loose from the party of his birth. The successor of him loses his gun. Republican S. senators should watch well their step, for they can keep the Negro Republican or make him Democratic. Every Republican senator should take into serious consideration the numerical strength of his colored constituency. In the division of patronage, among his constituency, he should give the vote to the Negro to His willingness to do this will force any President of his party to act upon his recommendation when this is a policy of the party.
OSCAR DE PRIEST SPEAKS
And Is Banqueted—Round Table
Discussion and Answer
Other Speakers
Youngstown, O.—A banquet in honor of Congressman Oscar DePriest was given at six P. M., last week Friday night, at Belmont Y. Rev J. H. Maxwell, H. G. Emerson, L. C. Underwood, Attys, W. R. Stewart, P. H. Hill and Councilman W. S. Vaughn were the speakers, while S. S. Booker acted as master of ceremonies. The invocation was pronounced by Rev. G. W. Tindall. Music was furnished by the Triangle Boys' band, the Tabernacle Baptist Church, at Huckley Treble Clet club. The meeting in the evening at Centenary M. E. church, of which Mr. DePriest was the speaker, was sponsored by our Progressive League of Mahoning County. "It is necessary that every Afro-American think well of himself and that he' use intelligently the power of franchise, which is his only weapon of defense," Mr. DePriest said among many other things.
A Bap in the Jaw.
Beaumont, Tex. — A hefty slap on the jaw, delivered by a robust and stout-hearted sheriff broke up an embryo lynching party here early. Sunday. The wallop was landed by Sheriff W. W. Covington on a sailor who had appointed himself leader of men, remnant of a mob of 200 which assaulted the Jefferson County jail early in the day to lynch Rainey Williams, charged with assaulting women of both races. The blow sent the sailor and his "mobrats" retreating in confusion, abandoning their attempt.
Candidate for Governor
Baltimore, Md.—The Maryland Communist party in convention, Saturday last, nominated for governor Samuel Parker of this city, age 26 an Afro-American waiter and longshoreman. The convention was attended by 34 delegates from Baltimore, Cumberland and Hagerstown. Three other Baltimoreans complete the ticket.
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.

Dorsing What Judge Parker

Republican governors of states, like Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia, Missouri and Massachusetts, should ponish themselves for voting in dispensing patronage. Back of the unwillingness, to give the col-
[Image of a man in a suit, resting his chin on his hand].
ored man important positions of trust, lies the smobbin racial policy that a colored man should hold no position which places a white person where he is to serve under him. This doctrine is as damnable as the Parker position. This position grows stronger in proportion as our vote becomes more intelligent. It is folly to expect many colored people to accept this policy.
The colored voter is in a strait betwixt two. Southern Democrats control the Democratic party and they are the arch enemies of the colored voter. On the other hand, the Democratic Negro policy and sentiment have invaded the Republican policy and has practically become its policy that the Negro go into the camp of his enemies to make new friends or shall he fight it out inside of his party and force recognition?
This congressional election will feel the Negro's reaction in one way or the other. At any rate colored brother, deliver yourself by using your head and vote."

Congressman Oscar DePriest has warned our government employees at Washington, D.C. to stop "laying off to attend funerals, picnics, etc." if they would continue to hold their jobs. Mr. DePriest was burned in effigy, last week Monday night, in Birmingham, Ala., by a mob of 2,500 Klansmen who fired pistols and machine guns in their work of intimidation. He says he will speak there, nevertheless, as advertised.
Honor John Brown
Hudson, O.—The memory of John Brown, who sought to free the slaves in his Harper's Ferry raid, was cherished Sunday, at a reunion of 56 of his lineal descendants, who met on the lawn of an old house, built by Brown himself, midway between Hudson and Twinsburg.

That Port Arthur, Texas, attorney who refused for a few days only to accept the assignment of the criminal court at Beaumont, Tex., to defend Rainey Williams, a member of the race charged with criminal assault, was fined $250 and remained to jail for contempt of court by the judge (R. L. Murry). Not, however, out of any consideration in any way for the accused (Williams).
OHIO'S PIONEER MOR VIOLENCE ACT.
To the Editor of The News, The Press and The Plain Dealer: Dear Sirs:—I notice in your paper of June 27, '30, that our County Prosecutor's office has "broken out" again in criticism of the most effective anti-mob violence legislation in this country and in a very weak effort to "play to the gallery" with its work against suits filed against this county as the result of injury sustained by persons at the hands of members of local mobs.
Just how "antiquated" the Ohio Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law is can best be understood when it is recalled that nearly every governor of a state in this union, who has recommended legislation against mob violence and lynching, has incorporated in his recommendation the principle upon which the Ohio Law is built, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Kentucky and several other northern states have laws that are duplicates of the Ohio Mob Violence Act. This same thing is true of every anti-lynching bill introduced in the U. S. Congress in the last fifteen years, and includes the Dyer bill, now pending.
If Christ Lexa will carry his case against this county to the Ohio Supreme court, the County Prosecutor's office will get a rude shock when it learns that the Common Pleas court judgment of $750 in his case is upheld.
Nearly all of the anti-mob or antlynching legislation in this country enacted by the various state assemblies, is based upon the pioneer Ohio Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law
DE PRIEST WRONG!
Congressman Oscar DePriest of Chicago, our only member of the U. S. House of Representatives, spoke in Youngstown, last week Friday night, and made his first major mistake that we have noticed in all the many speeches he has delivered since being elected a congressman. The foregoing, of course, providing he is correctly quoted in The Youngstown Daily Vindicator of June 28, '30. In opening his speech, which was delivered in our Centenary M. E. church, that city, Mr. DePriest is quoted as saying: "We do not want social equality. The Negro desires only that he be given the full rights of a citizen of the United States."
Our Congressman is wrong! We want and need, just as much as any other race, group or class of citizens in this country, social and every other kind of equality enjoyed by them. Indeed, if we are to compete successfully with them, we must enjoy all kinds of equality, too. And it is the merest nonsense for Mr. DePriest, or anybody else, to endearor to create an impression to the contrary. Then, too, it is a pitiful reflection upon him or any other member of the race who attempts to make so harmful a concession to the prejudice against our people in this country. He does not voice the sentiment of the intelligent of our people when he makes such unfortunate statements as the two quoted above. And, too, they are harmful, very harmful, indeed! Stop it, brother.
Mr. DePriest is also quoted as having "begged the audience not to
re-elect the two U. S. Senators from Ohio who voted against the Negro by supporting Parker." Mr. DePriest may or may not be right in the foregoing. Ten years ago, Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina, when the Republican candidate for governor of his state, said he did not believe in Afro-Americans of his state participating in politics, or something to that effect. Less than ten months ago, the Judge handed down a decision in the Richmond (Va.) segregation case which helps our people of the entire country far more than his unfortunate statement of ten years ago hurt us. Therefore, we fail to feel that U. S. Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch of Ohio, a candidate for re-election, this fall, committed "such a crime" against us when he voted for Judge John J. Parker, as Congressman DePriest, the socialistic leadership of the N. A. A. C. P. and others would have us believe.

Kid Chocolate Kayoes Petrone.
New York City.—Kid Chocolate, slugging Afro-Cuban bantamweight deux, de laxe, dominated Dominic Petrone of this city by a technical knockout in the sixth round of their scheduled ten-round bout at Ebbets Field, Wednesday night. Chocolate weighed 126; Petrone 125. At the start of the sixth round, Chocolate backed his opponent up against the ropes and then began the punishment which resulted in Referee Eddid Forbes stopping the fight.
Simms' to Battle Godfrey
George Godfrey, heavyweight, who "fought" Primo Carrina in Philadelphia last week, and Frankie Simms, (white), local slugger, will meet in the feature twelve-round brawl of Fat Eddie Mead's third Taylor Bow show, to take Tuesday, the day of fact, as plon heavyweight while Simms, a terrific puncher, is acquiring more of a reputation with each fight. He knocked out Ted Sandwina in the last Public Hall show.
Tolan Sets Another World Record
Vancouver, B. C.—Eddie Tolan, University of Michigan sprint star, won the invitational 100-meter race in the Dominion Day track and field meet here, Tuesday. George Simpson, Ohio State, and Percy Williams, Vancouver star, were second and third, respectively. Tolan's winning tenths of a second the world's record held jointly by himself and Charlie Paddock.

horse-race track, Tolan led all the way. Simpson passed Vancouver's hero in the last twenty yards to cross the finish line a foot in front of Williams. Tolan broks the tape about three feet ahead of Simpson who led the race for two seconds to win the 220-yard race from Eddie Tolan. The Ohio State runner led all the way but won by only a foot. Williams did not enter.
Gans Almost Kills Baker.
We hadn't heard (before going to press, Thursday morning), how George Godfrey came out with his bout in the East, but it is not difficult to forecast the result. Big George, as a rule, "brings home the bacon". With this in mind, it is difficult to regard Wednesday night of this week as anything else but Negro night in pugilism. The New York City and "Baby Joe" Gans of California all but killed Sergt. Sammy Baker (white) at Taylor bowl, this city, that night. Gans knocked him to the canvas eight times and was sent there twice himself. The former is lying critically ill at St. Alexis hospital, this city, as the result of the beating he received from the Josephine Heights boxing commission, pronounces Sammy's trouble as "a probable hemorrhage of the brain." Several doctors were in consultation on his case, early Thursday morning. Over 3,500 persons saw the minute and 35 seconds Gans-Baker contest. The latter was plucky and game to the last, and won the 3d, 4th, and 8th of the 12-round go. The wind-up was a horrible vomiting blood and "sobbing, again and again." "I am going to die," going to die," he was in a semi-conscious condition when helped to his dressing room and seemed in a natural sleep, early Thursday morning, at the hospital.

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, is the cause of death as manently 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 $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 is shared. 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 received may be distributed to the 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 must for in this chapter be equal in amount 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 next succeeding tax levy for such recovery, 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 may be held by 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:
BBS.
ed.
representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another.
costs in tax levy.
inst 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 or 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: Sec. 12540. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities and amenities not financed not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed.
This law was repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is not so great as it would be if they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under -it, in the courts.

PROTEST! PROTEST!!
To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who must speak speak again to right the wrongs of many. Elle Wheeler, Wilcox.

DIAL TELEPHONES INCREASE IN OHIO
4,000,000 Dials in National Bell System
The rapid growth in the use of dial telephones throughout the Bell System is reflected in the increased number of these instruments in operation in Ohio.
Ten years ago there were only 125,000 dial telephones in service in the entire Bell System. At the end of 1929 this number had increased to approximately 4,000,000, of which 186,480 were in Ohio. The 1929 gain in the number of dial telephones for the system was about 850,000.
Telephones in Ohio operated by The Ohio Bell Telephone Company are 26 per cent dial at the present time, and within two years, the total number will be increased considerably by the installation of about 98,000 additional dial telephones. The entire Akron area, involving more than 48,000 instruments, will be cut over to the dial system in August, 1930, and in October, 1931. Dayton, with about 50,000 telephones, will be given dial service.

AN APPRECIATION.
If there is any one thing all of our people of this community—not only Garret A. Morgan, his family and friends—thorouly appreciate, it is City Law Director Harold H. Burton's decision of Tuesday to not appeal to the Ohio Supreme court the granting Garret A. Morgan a mandamus directing the city finance-director to pay him the $2,000 voted him by the City Council and withheld for many months. Morgan, as the writer personally knows, was the hero of that 1916 crib-tunnel disaster and at the behest of city officials. For this, he has been inducted into the House. Still a year, almost beyond endurance as the result of the opposition led by Mayo Fessler, executive secretary of the Citizens' League. While we are thanking our very efficient Law Director for his sensible and correct decision we must not overlook the most commendable action of the Appellate Court of the State, Manuel Levine and Willis Vickery, and particularly the latter's comment in handing down the court's very proper decision to grant the mandamus.

Dear Mr. Smith: I have yours of the 17th and can only say in reply that I have already indicated my desire to see the colored citizens of Cleveland represented in the personnel of the Veterans Employment Bureau, if more appointments are made.
Just what the outcome will be I do not know, but I can appreciate your interest in seeing you of my desire to be entirely fair.
Very truly yours.

MUST DRIVE PSYCHOTECHNICAL MACHINE

A candidate for a motorist's license, intent upon driving the confusing new "psychotechnical machine," adopted by the police department at Vienna. He is shown at the miniature steering wheel which controls the pencil which he must direct through a map of congested traffic on streets, turning around on the cylinder by electricity—a task which demands complete attention and concentration.

BILL, THE BUS DRIVER SAYS
Killin' folks outright is bad enough but even scarin' 'em to death don't win you no applause."
(Pr. MARGUS A. DOWA)
(By MARCUS A. DOW.)
Did you ever try to lead a spirited hound dawg on a leash, or did one of them ever lead you? You know the kind I mean, one of them yankin' with bounds with forward march on the double quick as their main object in life.
I know a lot of bozos who make their automobiles act like one of those restless bounds strainin' on a leash while they're waitin' for the traflic light to change. They shoot forward like the leash had busted, and if they knock down a walker who nint'd had time to reach the curb, it's all in the day's fun, to them hables.
The red light was showin' on a crossin' in a little upstate burg and cross traffic was goin' by while the main stem drivers sat still. Among 'em was a drinin' fool at the wheel of a six-cylinder hound dawg. He had a sixth sense that could tell him just three seconds in advance of when the light would change. His engine let out a snort like the relp of a hound, and at the first ray of green he jumped his bus almost off the pavement in his anxiety to be off in a hurry. As the iron hound jumped, the dust on the fender just brushed the skirts of a motherly lookin' old lady who had got two-thirds or better across the cross walk and scared the daylights out of her. She gave a little squeak, jumped, stumbled over the curb, hit her knee on a piece of wood with a sharp edge, cut a bad gash which resulted in a stiff knee for the rest of her life.
The ornery bozo what done that trick never looked back. What the h—l would he care? He'd say he didn't bump her hurt and that would let him out. What a fine idea of fair play that is, I don't think!
That woman was crossin' accordin' to rules and regulations. She had a right to protection. And any guy that thinks a change to green gives him the right to turn his hound-dawg-on-four-wheels loose too quick and let it jump before a decent walker has a chance to reach the curb in safety is a low, mean, contemptible hawg. He 'ain't even a self-respect' hound.
Safety Director Offers
Some Worthy Suggestions
A code of practices affecting the car owner, designed to promote safety, was announced by H. O. Rounds, the safety and traffic division of the Detroit Automobile club. Mr. Rounds suggested that the motorists remember the following:
That if you give anyone a lift do not expect pay for it and don't be surprised if you lose your car or your valuables.
That whatever attracts, detracts, or allures, one should never lose control of his car.
That all roads are not smooth, but the same watchfulness is required on good roads as on bad ones.
That you will find people at cross purposes, but courteous treatment will decide the right of way.
That when you pause, do not block some one else. Give timely warning in anything you do that may affect others.
That proper care of your machine is necessary. Carelessness causes breakdowns.
That all-night driving is more difficult than driving in the light of day. That sometimes more power is required to drive. That it is necessary to apply the brakes. That it is necessary to apply the brakes.
Simple Test for Leaks
In Any Cooling System
Leaks in the cooling system are sometimes only apparent when the engine is operating, and the circulating water is hot. Such leaks are difficult to find and repair. The smallest leak, however, can be detected at once by applying air pressure to the cooling system. This may be done by using part of an old inner tube and a piece of cork. Use the cook to plug the overflow pipe and cut a circle of rubber from the inner tube with the valve at the center. Remove the filler cap

and bind the section of the inner tube over the opening as shown. Pressure is then applied with a tire pump, Only a few strokes are required. Be very careful not to apply too much pressure to avoid damaging the radiator. The radiator of an automobile is not designed to withstand pressure. Too much may open up a seam or bulge out the side of the upper or lower water tanks.-Popular Science Monthly.
Dirty Automobile Cause
OF Owner's Depression
A clean car, at whatever cost, is worth the trouble, for it helps prolong its life and good appearance, and it has a stimulating and pleasant influence on its occupants, yet many motorists permit an accumulation of mud and grime to collect on their cars no matter how eager they might be to clean them. It should be remembered dirt hastens the aging of the car by deteriorating the finish, and a loss in pride of ownership, in prestige and self-esteem. A poor looking car seems to have a depressing effect on the owner.
AUTOMOBILE NOTES
Mud allowed to remain on the artillery wheel does more than mar appearance. It is also destructive of the paint.
* * * *
The modern engine demands the highest type of plug performance and an intense spark is essential for its operating efficiency.
* * * *
Brake squeaks in older cars may be due to the unevenness in the brake band. A thin piece of metal run around the drum will reveal such uneven spots.
* * * *
Start your car in second gear if you want to, but remember that to do this strains the motor more than starting in first. And you can make quicker get-away in first speed, too.

S TO the right hat for the right occasion than a wide brimmed back Milan, none other comes nearer registering 100 per cent perfect.
RUFFLES, RUFFLES ALL THE WAY ON PARTY AND GRADUATE FROCKS
DONMEY PHOTO
AS TO the right hat for the right occasion than a wide brimmed black Milan, none other comes nearer to registering 100 per cent perfect. Wherefore the revival of broad-of-brim fine black Milans for summer will be hailed with delight by the majority of women.
The beauty about these flattering big brims of fine, finer, finest Milan straw is that they top fluttery, summery chiffons and other frocks as sheer and dressy, quilted as correctly and charmingly as they do neat tailored silks or light woolens.
Most of the Milans coming over from Paris seem to be going mushroom although predictions are rife that the pendulum is apt to swing back to the almost forgotten cart-wheel types.
That very handsome drooping brim, first in the picture with its modish shallow crown which has white roses posed at the back, combines the ultra new coarse straw with fine Milan in its making.
Another black Milan mushroom-brim
model is shown to the right. It is
RUFFLES, RUFFLES
ON PARTY AND
DONNEY
PHOTO
JUDGING from the founcing most sheer frocks are receiving this season, fashion is in a very ruffled state of mind.
Most every net, organdie or chiffon gown accents the ruffled theme for summer. It may be just a few dainty ruffles cunningly grouped or it may be whole flocks of them, extending from head to foot, as here pictured. Oh! there's no doubt about it, fashion is "saying it" with ruffles, and in more ways than one.
Very fashionable is the organdie frock the skirt of which is formed of three wide circular flounces, each of these bordered with several rows of tiniest ruffles. Lovely way, this, to make up organdie—try it! Be sure to finish the short sleeves with corresponding beruffled circular-cut flowing flares.
There's a flair for ruffled chiffon frocks, too. These prettily feminine and summery gowns may be either in print or in monotone pastel, if not
by Your Copy or an Acqu
trimmed with pink velvet ribbon. If any color is smarter combined with black than white, that color is pink turquoise or light blue following next in order.
The Milan down in the left-hand corner is made in sections which are fagoted together by hand. Quite a considerable fagoting is being employed by the milliner both in connection with straw and with fabric. The little bow at the side on the hat portrayed is of straw.
Lacy straws distinguish the two other models shown. The dressy chapeau in the center has a fancy straw crown, a network of black and white horsehair forming the brim. A band and underbrim bow of black velvet completes this model.
Natural colored crocheted Tuscan straw is mounted on a black horsehair cloak for the concluding hat.

ALL THE WAY
GRADUATE FROCKS
pure white. They are made up very simply, the ruffles variously placed in groups and otherwise. In applying the ruffles there is no attempt to achieve sophisticated effect, in fact, it is the very simplicity of these frocks together with their exquisite coloring which makes them so beguiling.
As a suggestion for a graduating frock the ever-so-ruffled net dress in the picture is ideal. The original is made up of myriads of ruffles of net footing sewed on a net foundation for cotton net in any form printed, or plain, has certainly come into its own for summer.
Made of organdie, each ruffle pictored, this dress would be adorable for party wear. But think of the hemsftching! Not so extravagant after all, for the organdie would cost a trifle, which should be an argument in favor of making an extra allowance for pictoring.

POLITICAL OUTLOOK IN OHIO
In reply to the letter sent him, several weeks ago, by our Laymen's League of Cuyahoga County, Roy S. Rector, pres. Gov. Moyers Y. Cooper has written Mr. Louis Williams, secretary of the league, that there are no openings at this time in the State Board of Clemency and the Industrial Commission which he could fill by the appointment of an Aro-American. He does not say that he would do this if he were an open position; that there is an open position in any other state board or commission; nor does he explain why no member of the race has been given an outstanding position in any department of his administration during the past year and a half. He does, however, refer to the placing of one Howard Greer of Cincinnati in a minor position "in connection with the Industrial Commission" and claims to "have appointed a parole officer to aid, in connection with the colored prisoners, Dr. E. W. Currer, of the insignificant jim-crow positions. The Governor might have added that his messenger also is a member of the race. What we have said on more than one occasion in the past we repeat, Gov. Myers Y. Cooper can write and say some very nice things to the thousands of Afro-American Republicans in the state of Ohio, but to date he has failed utterly to measure, to his nice talk to our people. We would suggest to the governor or less distinguishable office doing this, because the outlook for the Republican fortune, is anything but encouraging, especially since he and others on the ticket are on the benefit, this year, of the assistance the exceptionally large vote brot out by the Republican presidential candidate, Herbert Hoover, a year ago last fall, when the governor was swept into office by it after having been appointed to the position two years previous. The few insignificant jobs he has given to Afro-Americans will not arouse an enthusiasm in his behalf among our class of people, this fall, when he will need every vote in the Republican party of the state of Ohio, and then some, we fear. The Laymen's League of Cuyahoga County in its letter to the Governor, under date of May 22, 1930, but voiced the desire of the great mass of our voters in his state, to the appointments of a few Afro-Americans to "outstanding positions" in his administration of the state's affairs. His continued refusal to grant so reasonable a request and one, too, that he virtually promised in his many talks to our voters, last fall a year ago, will only serve to make his defeat certain in November next.
