P. to the member of the race who has done most, the preceding year, for our people, thru activities of the association, was presented, Monday, to Atty. T. Willis Nutter of Charleston, W. Va. Two Sets of Twins in Year. English, Ind.—The second pair of twins in a year were born to Mrs. Dana Riley (white), age 24, here. Monday. She is the mother of nine children, seven living. The first twins arrived, June 23, 1929, and died shortly afterward. The mother and the newest twins were reported to be progressing satisfactorily. The Junior Federation's recent formal at The Cleveland News auditorium was an exceptional affair. An ten-piece orchestra furnished the music and Naomi Morris, fancy dancer, and Al Roberts, entertainer, were featured. Eighteen members of the federation, all graduates, were awarded gifts. More than two hundred were in attendance. Mrs. Lethia Fleming, Mrs. J. C. Crawford, chaperons; and Mrs. Gertrude Fisher, sponsor; Alice Green, press, led the march. There were a number of out-of-town guests from surrounding cities and towns, southern Ohio, and W. Va., Jim Barnes, an Oberlin graduate this year and its star athlete, being among the number. 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." SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS TURNED DOWN FLAT BY REPUBLICANS, NORTH AND SOUTH, IN PATRONAGE AND LEGISLATION. 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. THE COPY FIVE CENTS FALL? DOWN FLAT NORTH AND SOUTH, IN AND LEGISLATION. Dorsing What Judge Parker All—U. S. Senators and Used—Very Interesting. 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." (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. DOINGS OF THE RACE. The A. M. E. Church General Conference will hold its quadrennial session in Cleveland, in 1932. Dr. R. R. Moton's Haitian Educational Commission will sail for or fly to this country on Monday, July 7. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has given $71,785 to enlarge the Harlem playground for our boys and girls in W. 134th St., N. Y. City. Col. Benj. O. Davis and five of our nurses will accompany those of our "Gold Star" mothers who make the "jim-crow" trip to Europe which starts July 12. The great Poro College of St. Louis is making extensive improvements in its Chicago branch beauty school, establishing a new dormitory on South Parkway. Mrs. Annie E. Malone says the Chicago branch "has developed amazingly and beyond our expectations." 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. The Rev. Clarence Gee of Delaware, spoke on material he is gathering for a biography of the noted abolitionist, Salmon Brown of Lakewood, president of the group, presided.

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 Pro- secutor’s office has “broken out” again in criticism of the most effec- tive anti-mob violence legislation in this country and in a very weak ef- fort 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 gov- ernor of a state in this union, who has recommended legislation against mob violence and lynching, has in- corporated in his recommendation the principle upon which the Ohio Law Is built, Mlinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Kentucky and several other northern states have Iaws that are duplicates of the Ohio Mob Vio- Tence Act. This same thing is true of every anti-lynching bill introduced in the U. S. Congress in the last fif- teen years, and includes the Dyer Dill, now pending. If Christ Lexa will carry his case against this county to the Ohio Su- preme ceourt, the County Prosecu- tor’s offico 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 anti- lynching legislation in this country enacted by the various state assem- blies, is based upon the pfoneer Ohio Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law. Harry C. Smith, ‘CHerry—1259. 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 mis- take 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 Vindieator of June 28, '30. In ‘opening his speech, which was de- livered 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 citi- zens in this country, social and every ‘other kind of equality enjoyed by ‘them. Indeed, if we are to compete successfully with them, we must en- foy all kinds of equality, too. And it is the merest nonsense for Mr. DePriest, or anybody else, to endeav- or 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 unfortun- ate statements as the two quoted above. And, too, they are harmfal, very harmful, indeed! Stop it, brother. Mr. DePriest is also quoted as paving “begged the audience not to re-elect the two U. S. Senators from. Ohio who voted against the Negro by supporting Parker.” Mr. DePriest Be Rerav ooh erie el ore going.

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 Eddie Forbes stopping the fight. Simms’ to Battle Godfrey George Godfrey, heavyweight, who “fought” Primo Carnera in Phila- delphia last week, and Frankie Simms, (white), local slugger, will meet in the feature twelve-round brawl of Fat Eddie Mead’s third Taylor Bowl show, next Tuesday. Godfrey, as a matter of fact, is cham- pion heavyweight while Simms, a ter- rific 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 Simp- son, Ohio State, and Perey Williams, Vancouver star, were second and third, respectively. Tolan’s winning time, 10.2 seconds, battering by two- tenths of a second the world’s record held jointly by himself and Charlie Paddock.

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”, for “Kid” Chocolate won in 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 hos- pital, this city, as the result of the beating he received from Joe. Dr. Joseph Kocar, representing the New- burg 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 sa¥ the minute and 35 seconds Gans-Baker contest. The latter was plucky and game to the very last, and jvon the 3d, 4th, and Sth of the 12-round go. The wind-up was pitiful.

Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or matager of an inn, restaurant, eat- ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance 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, facili- ties or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred do'lars, or imprisoned not less than thirty day nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shal: also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundreds dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent jur- isdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law nas repeatediy been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court.

At the end of 1929 this number had increased to approximately 4,000,000, _ af which 186,480 were in Ohio. The 1929 gain in the number of dial telephones for the system was about $50,000. & 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 con- siderably by the installation of about 98,000 additional dial tele- phones. The entire Akron area, in- volving more than 48,000 instru- ments, will be cut over to the dial system in August, 1930, and in October, 1931. Dayton, with about 50,000 telephones, will be sigen dial service. «t's: Basy : OH, 1 DON'T KNOWe a [THEY GOT To CLavins’ ¥ sac, Ll haat ASK ME ANoTHED) im GAME ON THE Trea 7 PROU Ge | THE OTHER DAY.

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.
