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."

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.

[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."

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.

June 27, 1930.
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.

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

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 edi-
tor had enacced while a member of
the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
The General Code of Ohio:
See. 12240. 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. The trouble is
our people will not use it as often as
they should, but expect it to do for
them what they should and must do
for themselves, under -it, in the
courts,
HERE'S AN OPPOKTUNITY!

DIAL TELEPHONES
* INCREASE IN GHld
4,000,000 Dials in National
Bell System
The rapid growth in the use of
Gial telephones throughout the Bell
System is reflected in the increased
number of these instruments in op-
eration 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, _ 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.

He had been out on a $1,000 ball-bond furnished by Clyde Perry. The number of his case was 37427. When the forgery was committed, Cooper was employed by Samuel Ungerleider and Co., stock brokers of this city.
Secretary Chas. S. Smith of the Police Department informs The Gazette that "Prof. Tagour, the 7th and the famous Hindu mystic me, and the other man, the city on June 10 and 11, locating at U. N. I. A. hall, 2200 E. 40th St. for consultations, 'showed the night of June 10, was brought to Safety Director Edwin D* Barry's office the morning of June 11, and given two hours to leave the city with his partners. They were escorted, 6th dept. and placed on the train for parts unknown. They came here from Detroit," writes Secretary Smith.
Our Lady of the Blessed Carnival church will give a carnival, Sept. 5 and 6, at the parish, E. 79th St. The members and their friends say they are going to make this one of the greatest bazaars that has ever been given in this city. The pastor, Rev. Father Thos, McKinney, who is in Europe on a pilgrimage, will be returning about that time, and it is desired to show him the high esteem which he is having, which he is vacationing in making the bazaar a gloriously successful entertainment. Col. Sidney B. Thompson is sub-chairman of the committee of arrangements.
The City Manager Plan has been defeated twice in St. Paul, Minn., we are pleased to announce, once last November, and again June 16 of this year. The editor of The Gazzette derives considerable satisfaction from these St. Paul results because early last year he was asked by the executive secretary of the leading civic organization of the city, the Walmart chain from the City Manager Plan. The editor's article, fernistin the plan, was promptly relayed to City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins of this city, who as promptly wrote the editor expressing his great surprise and disappointment.
Mr. and Mrs. John H. Morton, E. 82nd St., delightfully entertained at luncheon, recently, in honor of Prof. and Mrs. J. J. Starks. Covers were laid for ten. Prof. Starks, a former president of Morris college, Sumter, U.S.A., served as president of Benedict college, Columbia, S.C. Others present were: Rev. P. H. Hill of New York, Dr. Carter of Los Angeles, Rev. Chas. Isom of Columbus, secretary of the state Baptist convention; Mrs. Chas. R. Lewis of Akron, president of state women's college; Rev. Chas. Isom of Columbus, head of Baptist children's work of the state, and Dr. Ernest Hall, pastor of E. Mt. Zion Baptist church.
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.
Chester C. Bolton.
