The Harris meeting in Zion Hill Baptist church, Monday evening, presided over by Atty. John Roundtie, netted Mrs. Hazel M. Walker, "Blossom Triplet" Bundy and his latest satellite, Rev. D. O. Walker, the severest panning any three of our local political speakers ever received in so public a manner. The chairman of the meeting branded the speeches of Bundy and the扎基斯 sisters of the School room of Mt. Zion Cong, church, Tuesday evening of last week) as "the expressions of a few wild jack asses." Their demand for "a new leadership," which they were to furnish, was ridiculed to the echo because three more erratic politically inclined individuals could hardly be found in any community north of the Mason and Dixon line. The overflow crowd outside. Rev. Aller not only thoroly denounced the Walkers and Bundy for their support of Day, but also lashed County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller, whom he said had been thirteen months giving our people representation (Asst. Co. Pros. Norman Selby Minor) promised before he was elected. Gov. Al. Smith is all right, but away with these little ones (Democrats) in this town." Mr. Maurice Mashke, the principal speaker, said in speaking of the candidacy of George B. Harris for County Prosecutor, that he that our people could afford to take the counsel of Attys. George, Payne and Martin, professional associates of Atty, George B. Harris, of the man who, before he was a councillman, was a dentist (Bundy); or a preacher who is partly a Democrat (Walker). He also said: "It will take a voice far mighter than Dr. Walker's to prevent the establishment of the recreation center in your section. You have Councilmen Finkle, Payne and George to protect your interests, and in justice I must say I do not believe Dr. Bundy would countenance any change in those plans." "It will be to Bundy's statement that he had not been intimidated by raids on the Majestic Hotel, Rev B. G. Glover said, "If he keeps up what is going on there now we're going to raid that place, every week." Rev. Aller denounced Rev. Walker for saying that the playground location is not in a desirable section. "Everybody knows," Aller said, "that the biggest dives anywhere in the city are between 79th and 105th Sts. Right near Walker's church is gone. The city is in the city, and I can go into his church and point out members of his congregation who run these dives." "Lord! have mercy!" When ministers fall out then there is some chance of the people getting the truth, don't you think? SEND MRS. N. M. CLAPP TO THE STATE SENATE Mrs. Nettie M. Clapp, a member of the Ohio General Assembly, deserves a nomination to the State Senate on her sane and constructive record. Elected to the legislature in 1922, she soon showed she had an unusual grasp of legislative matters. Her work in the interests of the feeble-minded institution for northwest Ohio and devotion to the needs of the Cleveland State Hospital cannot be too highly commended. In her work she has helped her efforts a large appropriation for the Newburgh State Hospital for much-needed land was secured. Mrs. Clapp was author of the bill which separated the London prison farm from the Ohio "pen." She had enacted legislation for "constitution day" observance in our schools. As a member of the finance committee, she has been very helpful in securing larger appropriations for the State Department at Willberforce. Poor Joe Feaver, unjustly confined to the Joe Feaver prison, wrote to her and she was the first woman to visit and offer assistance in his terrible trouble. The Gazette asks its readers to vote for justice-loving Nettie M. Clapp. How the People Are Fooled Washington, D. C.—Approval of the London naval treaty by the British Parliament was described as the "first exposure of part of the bunk used to obtain ratification" by the U. S. Senate, in a statement, last week Wednesday, by Senator Hiram W. Johnson (Repub.), California, leader of the treaty opponents in the U. S. Senate. "Only a short time ago," he said, "the State Department and every little man echoing what he was told to say, were harping upon the British and Japan's opposition to the treaty." Dr. Bundy, urged on, no doubt, by his good friend, George H. Bender, has thrown off all pretensions to Maseru kashima, an outright mutiny, with Arthur H. Day for prosecutor as his rallying cry.

DEANNA DAVIS (In this precinct, the name of DeAnna Davis was left off the ballot through trickery. Voters must write her name on the ballot and put an X mark in front of it, as follows: REGULAR REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATION CANDIDATE. TO THE VOTERS OF WARD 11. Lawrence O. Payne, the ingrate! Lawrence O. Payne, the man whose word cannot be depended upon! Lawrence O. Payne, the man who makes a bargain until he gains his desire and then proceeds to stage a fight for something that he agreed to let another have. As the public will remember, I was a candidate for Council in the fall of 1929 with a committee of 132 women, each pladged to raise ten dollars for my campaign, and to cover every inch of the ground in the 11th Ward from the time the campaign opened until it closed. This committee was going at high speed when lo! in the midst of our preparations, Mr. Payne agreed that it was bad policy for two candidates in the 11th Ward to run for the same office. While I do not question the election of Mr. Payne had I remained in the race, I am sure that he wished to poll every vote in the entire district for himself. And wishing to cause no friction in the rank and file of the Republican organization, I agreed to withdraw from the race on the following conditions: That Mr. Payne would have a free, open race with no competition from me, and in return for fame, I was to be the ward leader for the next two years, beginning in August, 1920. Mr. Payne agreed that I would disburse jobs and he recognized as ward leader for the two years mentioned. He cited the fact that his election under the Charter would prohibit him from having anything to do with the securing of jobs and he did not care to do anything that was against the Charter form of government. Did he keep faith? NO! Immediately after he was elected, he began to hold on a hostile attitude. I made on an average of four speeches a night for him from the time of our agreement until the campaign closed. I took over his headquarters, both in the eastern and western parts of the ward; placed women in charge who worked absolutely for nothing; gave their services ten hours a day; staged meetings and teas with no expense to Mr. Payne whatsoever. None of these women received as much as a letter of thanks from Mr. Payne for their contribution of services. I can find no reason for Mr. Payne's actions as to being a man of his word, other than the desire of one of his co-workers to have him destroy himself politically. It was on my recommendation that Mr. Fleming made the fight for Mr. Payne's position as an assistant police prosecutor. Through Mr. Fleming's influence he receives a contact that should be made him a leader, picketed the companies'公益性, popularity, character and religious faith, and above all, dependability. Has Lawrence O. Payne measured up to these qualifications for leadership, or does he interpret leadership to mean disloyalty to those who have made it possible for his present political standing? Does it mean gossiping, bragging, going from one precinct worker to another "bull-dozing" them, trying to make them do what he wishes done? Does his idea of leadership mean placing opponents in the field against the organization that elected him without even consulting them to see if they would be for him for ward leader? To my mind, these are not evidences of good leadership. For 18 years, I have been a resident of this city and there has not been one civic movement in the city that I have not been a part of. I served as a charter member of the Phillis Wheatley Association; chairman of the committee that built the new home for our aged people; served as chairman of the trustee board of my church; chairman of the committee that TO defend Leroy Bundy when he was incarcerated in incite race riots in East St. Louis; chairman of more money than any other committee in the bill in the Congress that was promoted by rights of the race, I have been a champion; for he has been out of employment, I have tried in the help for them. I have especially tried to help here from the South, because being a southern son they have to meet in coming to a large city to leadership, I do not have to take my hat off the leader in the district.

I have especially tried to help those who have migrated here from the South, because being a southerner myself, I know the conditions they have to meet in coming to a large city. I believe that when it comes to leadership, I do not have to take my hat off to any applicant or would-be leader in the district. I have always believed that I could meet with any group of citizens and discuss anything pertaining to the advancement of my group without any racial antagonism. I have always been able to reason out and show my side and have received considerations that few other people of my group have received. I take no neutral ground when it comes to recognition of my people. I have always fought for everything I thought we could get and rightly justify us. I will not take time to review them. I am asking the racial group to which I belong, not to follow any radical to hold a race riot or start a feeling in this city that would take thousands of years to live down, simply because some one feels that he is destined to be the heroic leader of our group. THE FIGHT IS ON! BROUGHT ON BY MR. PAYNE AND HIS ADVISORS! Whatever the result may be, I shall abide by it. I am asking the sane and thoughtful people of the eleventh ward to go to the polls, Tuesday, August 12th, and vote for those candidates supported by the regular Republican Organization of Cuyahoga County. Vote for the candidates for MEMBERS COUNTY CENTRAL COMMITTEE who are recommended to you by The Republican Organization of Ward 11. The selection of a ward leader for ward eleven will be made at the convention by the duly elected precinct committeemen and women of ward eleven. If, at that time, the precinct committeemen and women desire a Fleming to serve in that capacity, we will feel highly honored for that vote of confidence. Yours for the Race. LETHIA C. FLEMING. MASCHKE PANS WALKERS-BUNDY! Decries Their Drawing "White Line" and Flays Demand for New Leaders (Themselves)— "Cheered to the Echo" —Other Speakers. The 12th Ward Republican clubs' mass meeting, last week at 4737 Woodland Ave., was sure a hummer —packed to the doors with almost as many people on the outside trying to get in as there were inside. Of course, Mr. Maurice Maschke, head of the local Republican organization, also wanted the national committeeman, was the big drawing card. It was expected that he would reply to the Walkers and Bundy political vaporings of a few evenings previous, upstairs in the Sunday School room of Mt. Zion Cong. church, and the expectations were fully realized and thorny satisfied. The meeting was opened and the committeeman, Alex Bernstein, 12th Ward leader and president of the club. He was followed by a large number of speakers, among them being Rev. L. J. Van Pelt, who said: "Don't tie the hands of your district director, Alex Bernstein. Don't tie the hands of your councilman, Herman Finkle." Benjamin Sacharow, candidate for the press, warned that "someone is trying to inject poison into your hearts" and pledged his loyalty to Bernstein and Finkle. Rev. Anderson Hawkins said he was perfectly willing to trust Bernstein and Finkle as are about all others, the erratic Walkers and Bundy excepted. Former Councilman E. J. Gregs said he had the "been hearing with keen regret the sentiment, 'we want to run things ourselves and to hell with anybody else'," I am frank to say that the man who puts out such stuff as that is not only ridiculous but harmful and dangerous. How can we progress espousing such fooltalk and sentiment?" Rev. E. G. Glover charged that Bundy had betrayed his trust, declaring the organization had helped him and that now he was turning against him. Dr. Edw. A. Bailey and Atty. Wm. R. Green followed with additional strong condemnation of the Walkers' and Bundy's political vaporisms. Atty. George B. Harris also spoke, referring pointedly to the indorsement of his opponent, Atty. A. H. Day, by the 17th Ward organization. He mentioned his own candidacy, being sponsored by the Cleveland Bar Association and the men and women ward leaders of the Republican organization, and then asked: "Who presents the candidacy of my opponent? The only sponsor I have heard mentioned publicly is the Randy Hall." Given a wonderful ovation by the packed hall, Mr. Maschke started his strong speech by referring to the Rundy meeting of Tuesday night. "It appears that after I left the 17th Ward club meeting, Tuesday night," he said, "two members of your group, one a councilman and one a divine, called for a new alignment in political affairs, one, to my mind, astounding. It appears that both drew the "white line, but I expect that both would have been tremendously infuriated had any white man draw to color shirt. But you must count them in the element of loyalty to those you knew had been your friends. The eminent divine went a little further in his political doctrine. Some time ago he came out against the Ohio Republican candidate for the U. S. Senate. That evening (Tuesday) he made complimentary remarks about the Democratic candidate for sheriff. It might be wise to follow him in spiritual affairs, but I doubt the wisdom of following in political affairs anyone who espouses the cause of Democracy. The cause of Alex of Bernstein and Herman Finkle ever to think of discarding them on the advice of either Bundy or Walker." Mr. Maschke chided the audience --- 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 NEWSIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. for not devoting sufficient effort to the nomination of State Representative Perry B. Jackson. "Some people," he said, "had better quit quarrelling about something that doesn't strictly concern their group and help one of their own." Maschke made his usual arguments in favor of the nomination of Geo. B. Harris, saying that the organization should profit by the experience of two years ago. "Already the Democratic newspapers have come out with the same propaganda that was used two years ago," he said. "The Citizens League has said that Day should be defeated by all means. And this morning there was an editorial in the Plain Dealer which I commend you to read, that tells the story. It hits all the headlines the head. Them who are advocating the nomination of Mr. Day, it seems to me, are not specially concerned with what happens in November, but only what takes place in August. They are not far-sighted enough to be political advisers of anyone." Mr. Maschke was loudly applauded all thru his speech, but particularly when he scored the rebellious Walkers and Bundy who on last week Tuesday night publically repudiated the leadership of Maschke, Bernstein and Finkle. Bundy was given a lashing throut the entire meeting. Speaker after speaker denounced him, accused him of betraying him, and endorsed him for demanding a leadership (himself and Walker) which our people of this community do not want and will not have. EXCEPTIONALLY QUALIFIED! Mrs. May D. Lang, Veteran, Suffragetist Campaigner, a Candidate For State Representative. One of Cleveland's pioneer advocates of woman suffrage is making her first campaign for office. Years ago, when women fought for the right to vote, Mrs. May D. Lang talked on street corners. Now she is campaigning for herself. She is Mrs. May D. Lang. a candidate for the Republican nomination for state representative and ought to be successful. Mrs. Lang is chiefly interested in child welfare legislation. She reorganized the Child Conservation league, six years ago, and was its state president. She is needed in the Legislature. Mrs. Lang formerly lived in Clifton park, Lakewood, but now lives in North Royalon, where she once helped her father, Mr. Harry Dixon, one of the best friends our people have had in Cuyahoga county for a quarter of a century, win an election as mayor. Both the Citizens' league and the Citizens' league have her. She is the wife of Elmer L. King, president of the Lang Body Co. Do not lift to vote for Mrs. Lang, Tuesday! The Gazette's editor commends her to our people in the strongest possible manner.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1930. One of seven white brutes, charged with the murder of a young Afro-American college student in Atlanta, some months ago, has been found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to from 12 to 15 years in the state penitentiary. The others await trial. This is a little good news like that quoting six or seven southern state governors as being against lynching. "Two rays of sunshine." A FORESAKEN CLINIC HERO. Walter B. Jackson, age 26, 2229 E. 82d St., was one of the three leading heroes of that terrible clinic disaster of many months ago. He has never recovered his health, ruined at that time, most of the time since being unable to work, and his wife seriously ill at the City hospital. If the other group of people won't do their duty toward Jackson, the matter is up to our people who should see to it that he and his wife are properly cared for until self-sustaining. They should not cease their efforts with the recent mass meeting, held in Mt. Zion Cong, church, where a strong set of resolutions were adopted and published in the daily press asking: "The clinic sponsors and the local public in general to give suitable reward in some way commensurate with his deeds of valor in behalf of his fellow men in what was regarded as one of Cleveland's worst disasters." Beautifully said, but resolutions don't buy food or clothing, pay house-rent, grocery, heat or light bills, etc. It is primarily up to our people to see that Walter Jackson and his wife do not suffer for the want of any of the foregoing, and of course our local ministers and churches should lead in this. ZMUNT AND HARRIS. Zmunt, Not Ely. If the Republicans of Cuyahoga are as wise this month, as we believe them, Jerry R. Zmunt will be renominate an impressive majority. The candidate against him is Charles R. Ely, mayor of Euclid. There are several reasons why in our opinion Ely should be defacted. His record as chief executive of Cleveland's lively eastern suburb argues against his selection to what is probably the most important county office to be filled the Mayor. He is a political machine builder and a machine-made politician. His identity with the gas franchise flasco four years ago is remembered. His devotion to a fee policy in auto cases wherein Ely, sitting as judge, profited if he found a motorist guilty but got nothing if he found, him guiltless, has not been forgotten. The gas grab was halted by a reefcund petition. the governor, which abolished the whole fee system. When his fees were cut off, Ely turned to the Council and received a salary increase to $6,000, though he gave part time to the office and was employed by one of the railroads. Euclid was then a village; the salary was the same as the mayor of Cleveland received until recently. If Euclid like the R. Ely gives that's Euclid's business. It is the business of Cuyahoga County to keep that kind of administration out of the Court House. — Cleveland Plain Dealer. Harris, Not Day The Cleveland Bar Association sets a high standard of conduct for candidates whom it supports for office this year. Members of the bar —we think properly—assume that a public responsibility rests on them to see that, so far as their influence goes, unfit men shall not be selected to such important post as that of judge of Common Pleas or county prosecutor. In this the Bar Association performs a task which no other group in the community could perform. One may differ with the organization as to some of its recommendations, but the obvious fact remains that the Bar Association is not trying to serve an ulterior purpose, but has the welfare of the county, state and nation in mind as the nomination of George B. Harris for the Republican nomination for prosecutor. We are distin­tered observers of the fight in the Republican ranks between Harris and Arthur H. Day. In a broader sense, however, we are not without interest in the Harris-Day contest. We believe, with the Bar Association, that in order to be assured of an honest, vigorous enforcement of law in this county, it is of the utmost importance that each party shall nominate for the office one fully qualified to fulfill its duties. Between Harris and Day the Plain Dealer is convinced that every test of comparison favors Harris. We think the Republicans of Cuyahoga County would make a serious misstep if the party did not Day was defeated two years ago in the face of a tremendous Republican landslide. The party cannot afford now to wager its good money on a candidate apparently doomed in advance to lose in November, but who, if elected, would not in our opinion make a satisfactory prosecutor.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. The foregoing is a real and perfect "low-down" on the candidacies of the four persons named—Zmunt, Ely, Harris and Day. It is none the less true because it appeared in the editorial columns of the leading local Democratic daily newspaper. No one, without bias, will question the foregoing, or dispute it, because it is "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth," regardless of who gave it or where it came from. Personally we have known well Jerry Zmunt, Republican organization candidate for county commissioner, ever since our school-days, and have watched his course in office from the very beginning, with the result that we have nothing but endorsement, in toto, for all the editor of The Plain Dealer has said about him, and his candidacy for reelection, in the foregoing. Jerry, as a county commissioner, has done his duty, fearlessly and well, always with an eye single to the best interests of the people of this county and always in accordance with the law governing the action of our county commissioners. His friendship for our people, shown on many occasions in years gone by, started with his youth and has steadily grown until now all of us know we can depend absolutely upon Jerry Zmunt to do the right thing wherever and whenever our interests are involved. He will be nominated, Tuesday, beyond all question or doubt, but our people cannot afford to play anything but an important part in this most satisfactory result. No one can question the legal or other ability of Atty. George B. Harris, candidate for the Republican nomination for county prosecutor. As indicated in the foregoing Plain Dealer editorial in reference to his and Atty. Arthur H. Day's candidates, he is not only competent but especially fitted for the position which needs, at this time particularly, just such a man. County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller, the Democratic incumbent, has failed to "make good" and this is no local secret. Without a word in criticism of Atty. Arthur H. Day, whose unfortunate political experience of two years age when he was the nominee and defeated, one cannot close his eyes to the wisdom of the local Republican organization's indorsement at this time of the candidacy of Atty. Geo. B. Harris. It recognizes the importance of the election of a Republican as county prosecutor to succeed Ray T. Miller, and it does not wish to take the chance which it would have to take in case of the nomination of Mr. Day. This is good politics if not wholly fair to the latter who under ordinary circumstances would be entitled to a second candidacy for the office at this time. The present political condition is such as to be not ordinary but extraordinary! Therefore, the insistence upon the nomination of Atty. George B. Harris whose friendship for our people began when he was an inmate of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' Home near Xenia, Green county, Ohio. The editor of The Gazette has known Mr. Harris for a quarter of a century and therefore is in a position to and does vouch for him. When you go to the polls on Tuesday to vote, and all should do so, do not fail to vote for Jerry R. Zmunt for the Republican nomination for county commissioner, and George B. Harris, for the Republican nomination for county prosecutor. Do not allow any misguided individual or individuals to even try to induce you to do otherwise. PAYNE "WAIVED" AGAIN! Tuesday evening, July 22, a the "Club Alaham," E. 49th St. near Central Ave., this city, a meeting for Ward 11 precinct committeemen and their wives was held. In his address to those present, County Commissioner Jack Harris made the statement that he was present, last fall, and heard the agreement entered into whereby Atty. Lawrence O. Payne, then a third district candidate for the City Council, promised to support Lethia C. Fleming for leader of Ward 11 in return for her withdrawing her candidacy for membership in the Cleveland City Council from the third district. Payne and the Flemings are both residents of ward 11. Mr. Harris' statement clearly places the burden of the proof in favor of Mrs. Fleming who claims that Councilman "Larry" Payne is "double-crossing" her and her husband, former Councilman Thomas W. Fleming, Republican leader of Ward 11, in presenting a list of candidates for precinct THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1930 committeemen to oppose those of the regular Republican organization whose names are printed on the first page of this paper. While the editor of The Gazette, a resident of Ward 11 for more than a quarter of a century, has not in years taken an active part in that ward's politics, he is free to say, and indeed frankly says that an agreement of the kind, mentioned in the foregoing, ought to be kept! The Flemings did their part by not only withdrawing the candidacy referred to but also by giving the very best and most loyal support possible to the Payne candidacy for the City Council, last fall. Exceptionally active in the campaign for all of our candidates, busy night after night and day after day for weeks, the editor of The Gazette is in a position to bear personal testimony to the fact stated in the preceding sentence. Councilman Payne, according to the Flemings and County Commissioner Jack Harris, is violating a pledge, an agreement, and therefore should be refused the support he seeks for his candidates for precinct committeemen in Ward 11.

Mizenko, rising young attorney, is an American born citizen, a graduate of Central High school, class '21, and of Ohio State University. He is interested in several business enterprises. His platform: Repeal dry laws of Ohio, approve Bender reapportionment amendment, pass old age insurance taxes. He is Republican candidate for state representative at Aug. 12 primary. Remember him, Tuesday. Tuesday night, Temple Baptist church, Cedar Ave. and E. 84th St., was packed to the doors—a mass meeting held by the East End Political club. It was one of the most enthusiastic of the campers, the community heard from the other group of the high type of voters present. Among the principal speakers were Hon. Maurice Maschke, Hon. Perry B. Jackson, our candidate for state representative; Atty. Moses H. Dixon, Atty. Geo. B. Harris, Mrs. Nettle M. Clapp, Jos. G. Ehrlich, J. Walter Wills, Jos. Price, Jr., and Homer Marshman. Councilman Clayborne George presided. The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! The statement being made by J. Walter Wills, Sr., and some of his friends that his candidacy for state senator has the endorsement of the local Republican organization is NOT true, and they know it! But they are simply trying to mislead our people. When Wills has served a couple of terms in the Representatives at Columbus, there might be some justification for his standing as a candidate for the state senate. According to Atty, Francis Young who says he was present in the meeting, last week Tuesday night in the Sunday school room upstairs, at M. Zion Cong, church, Rev. D. E. Walker mentioned Atty, Wm. R. Green as being among those he termed "the cheap one-horse politicians" who were "misleading" our people in this community, Green, in this situation, was still under Walker's left hand, arose immediately to protest when the effervescent pastor of St. James A. M. E. church "beat him to it" by apologizing for the offensive remark, Francis says. The Walkers and Bundy are sure "bobblegushes," as the Germans would say. In his speech at Monday night's meeting at Zion Hill Baptist church, the pastor, Rev. C. C. Aller, turning to Mr. Maurice Maschke, said: "You ought not to blame us for Councilman L. N. Bundy's opposing you and the local Republican organization now. You sold him to us, last fall, and turned down Councilman E. J. Gregg in doing so. Therefore, we are not to blame, but you are." What Rev. Aler failed to do was to bring out the fact that as between Bundy and Gregg, it is "six one and a half dozen the other." Gregg, when a member of the City Council, allied himself with the Democrats and, worst of all, voted for a white Democrat Orilkowski) for member of the House. When he wnd a candidate, in the person of the Hon. Harry E. Davis, who was finally elected to the position in spite of Gregg's vote in opposition to him. For the further information of "Brother" Aler, "The Rounder" desires to say that the editor of The Gazette, to whom Bundy appealed, took the latter to Mr. Maschke, early last fall, and induced him to place him (Bundy) on the Republican organization slate. Rev. H. C. Bailey was present at the session with Mr. Maschke when he agreed to place Bundy on the slate. So now "Brother" Aler you know who is guilty of having made such a grievous mistake. Am "sho" sorry! No one takes seriously Rev. D. O. Walker, the "windy" political pastor of St. James A. M. E. church. Last fall, he was just as noisily proclaiming his support of the Progressive Government committee and in opposition to "The Blossom Triplets" (George, Payne and Bundy) with whom he has now linked up in an effort to get a little cheap local political publicity. The members of St. James church are doubtless very proud (?) of his latest silly exhibition at Mt. Zion church, tuesday evening. The very idea of such men as Walker and Bundy, both thoroly politically discredited and most unreliable, blowing about affording our people of this community "new leadership!" It is enough to make a wooden Indian laugh. Just how could our people just politically, or them? "W, W, better known as 'Billy' Williams, told The Rounder," Wednesday morning, that Bundy had told him that Mr. Hanna had given him $1000. Wonder if that has anything to do with Bundy's "Day" activity and whether this gift is any indication of the reason why The Cleveland Daily News is pursuing a political course diametrically opposite to the Republican organization and its leader, Mr. Maurice Maschke? Does Hanna want to be the Republican "boss?" "The Rounder" has heard so and in recent weeks, too. Current rumor has it that "The Blossom Triplets," particularly Bundy and Payne, encouraged Rev. D. O. Walker to write his letter of alleged "protest" against the location in the 12th ward of the new swimming pool and recreational center which Councilman Herman Finkle has worked so long and hard for. The letter mentions Morgan, the City Council, Finkle and "The Blossom Triplets" (Councilman George, Payne and Bundy). Walker has been in Cleveland only a few years, comparatively speaking, and like Bundy, is what the Germans call "a bobblegush." The only difference between the two is that Walker is a native West Indian. Little attention should be paid to moss than anything to write. For several years, Councilman Finkle has been struggling to get a playground for his bailwick, the 12th ward. Now that he has succeeded, and it has been so placed as to make it convenient for residents of the 11th and 17th wards to use it as well as the 12th ward. "The Blossom Triplets" are trying to turn up more people in the third councilman district against Finkle, instead of getting busy in an effort to get a playground for their own wards, especially Payne and Bundy of the 11th and 17th wards, respectively. It is what some people refer to as "dog in the manger" business—their Walker "protest" and foolish comment. City Manager Morgan took the right stand when he turned down the Walker-George Payne and Bundy agreement to the fact that Parks Director Sam Newman selected the $50,000.00 THE MAY COMPANY DEFIANCE TIRES UNDER in Price—OVER in Mileage Defiance Tires Installed FREE at Our Patrons' Garage.

Three chess for Councilman Herman Finkle!!! FRANCIS J. COOK A Leading Candidate for the State Senate—His Platform Excellent —Favors Resubmission of the 18th Amendment. Among the leading candidates for state senator in the Republican primaries, Tuesday, is Francis J. Cook, well-known in Republican circles and in the legal profession. Mr. Cook is advocating legislation that will accomplish reform in our prison methods. He stands for an equal distribution of the tax burden with dual taxes eliminated. On the 18th Amendment, he feels that after a twelve-year trial, it should be resubmitted to the people to determine whether or not they prefer continuation of the present law, or revert to state control. He promises, if nominated and elected, to give thorny consideration to all legislative problems with a view of enacting a new law that would reference to racial or religious groups. Mr. Cook has a public grade and high school education with degrees of LL.B. and LL.M. from Ohio Northern University. He received the "Qualified" endorsement of the Citizens League and has been endorsed by a large number of ward clubs and civic organizations. ELECT SOTAK Atty. Frank W. Sotak was born and reared at Scovill Ave. and E. 25th St. where he lived for twenty-two years and had many of our group as friends and neighbors who knew and liked him. Mr. Sotak is a graduate of Cleveland's public schools, and John Marshall Law, an received degree of doctor of civil law from Lake Erie Law school. He has been engaged in the practice of the law here for four years and has been active in a number of movements beneficial to the citizens of Cuyahoga county. His parents were early settlers in Cleveland and the family has been prominent, having engaged in the banking business here for twenty-five years. He is fair-minded, capable and is endorsed by the Republican organization. Atty. Sotak is a member of the committee, a leader of his group and is exchanging votes with the Hon. Perry B. Jackson and others of our candidates. The Gazette recommends him. --- PORO Moves to Chicago MARKING another step in the growth, development and forward march of PORO COLLEGE, I wish to announce the removal of our headquarters from St. Louis to Chicago.

Chicago, Il. — The Binga State Bank, one of our oldest and largest banks, with deposits of $1,200,000, was closed, last week Thursday, by the state auditor at the request of its directors, because of frozen assets and a shortage of cash. The bank was one of the largest state banks in the city. Jesse Binga, who started it, was its president.

The 17th Ward Club Revolts Under the Mismatched Leadership of Its President—It Will Be "Just Too Bad for Them" After the Primaries. (Reprinted from last week's Gazette) The Sunday-school room of Mt. Zion Cong. church was filled, Tuesday evening, when the 17th ward club met because it had announced Maurice Maschke as a speaker. The club had endorsed Atty. Arthur Day as its candidate for the Republican pastor, who was a member while Mr. Maschke, the local Republican leader, as every one knew was there supporting the candidacy of Atty. George B. Harris for the same nomination. Two years ago their positions as candidates were reversed. There were about 500 persons in the room. Councilman L. N. Bundy presided and the speaker was Mrs. Hazel Wrinkle, Rev. D. O. Walker, State Senator George Bender and Atty. Ben Levin in the order named, President Bundy opening the meeting. Councilmen George and Payne whose clubs endorsed the Harris candidacy, in recent weeks, got to the meeting just before it closed, doubtless for obvious reasons. The less said about the speeches of the two Walkers, Bundy and Bender, they was bunk, pure and simple. As an illustration, Rev. Walker said among other things: "Let me tell you whippersnapper politicians I'm tired of letting you fool the people just to keep your little petty jobs. A new day is coming for the Negroes. We can no longer be deluded by puppets tied to city jobs." He subtly was referring to members of the race holding city jobs which of course includes "The Blossom Triplets" (Councilmen Payne, George and Bundy), City Civil Service Commissioner Harry E. Davis and others in the employ of the city. Mr. Maschke's calm, passionate yet forceful talk had preceded that of Walker. He reiterated that he was the man his portrait of Harris was not a matter of likes or dislikes, and said his only concern was in seeing a man nominated who could be elected in November. "I want you to think seriously on this matter," said Maschke. "I want you to think about November when you can not afford to have a candidate who will be shot full of blood by the Democratic newsmen." He repeated the assertion he has frequently made that there is grave doubt that Day could beat County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller (Dem.) in the election. "I love the grand old Republican party," he continued, "and I want to see a Republican down in the Court House. Don't be moved by your sympathies or feelings in figuring out this matter. To have anybody on the ticket who will be pilloried by the Democratic newspapers will weaken the whole Republican ticket." "Mr. in his address, referred to the rumors that Dr. Bundy's people were not with him. "That's a life. Look at them," he cried. "They want to create the impression that Dr. Bundy is living in a den of thieves. My friends, the Majestic Hotel is just as clean as any big hotel in the city." Q. no it isn't a lie, Senator. Somebody has fooled you and fooled you COMPLETELY! "Bundy's people," meaning of course local Afro-Americans, KNOW Bundy; you don't! The great majority of the people at the meeting were, as we have already said, drawn to it by the announcements of its speakers and not because they were or are "with" Bundy, "The Blossom Triplet." Bender does not know the Majestic hotel, either, or he would not think of drawing any such notoriously ridiculous comparison. Bender also referred to "some people who have had the audacity to suggest I should not be so friendly with Mr. Bundy." "But I admire a man who has guts," he said. "I'll trust you" if you want to. Senator, but there are many other persons, far better acquainted with Bundy than you are, that have another and better name for IT. The Cleveland Daily Press is quite right when it says: "Observers saw in the Bundy organization's detection little to justify the belief that Day's cause was materially aided, the sniff out that the attack on Maschke more than likely would solidify groups which have been wavering behind the Republican chieftain." One outcome of the meeting already is the opening of The Third District George B. Harris for County Prosecutor headquarters, the finest in that section of the many, many cases. W. W. Williamson charge, assisted by Clarence B. Shaw. Several meetings are being arranged for next week, they announce. RE-NOMINATE ACKERMAN For the State Senate—A Conscientious Representative With a Splendid Record—Our Friend. State Senator Jos. N. Ackerman is seeking renomination on his excellent record for two terms. It speaks for itself. Mr. Ackerman works for the interests of all, particularly those of this, Cuyahoga county which includes of course all of our people living in this senatorial district. It was Mr. Ackerman who, as vice-chairman of the appropriation for the State Department of Wilberforce University $178,000 larger than any appropriation ever given it. This shows he has the interests of "Wilberforce" at heart. He has sent eighteen of our young men and women of Cleveland to study there, free of tuition and other expenses. Mr. Ackerman has fought fearlessly all Ku Klux Klan legislation, including the bible bill. "An inspection of Mr. Ackerman's excellent record, during the past two terms in office, forces one conclusion: namely, that in view of the good work already done by the senator, and other work now in progress, his re-election to office is a public necessity at this time."—Garfield Heights Record. The Gazette urges our voters to be sure to remember Senator Ackerman when they go to the polls, Tuesday, Aug. 12. WILLIAM T. SPENCE A Strong Candidate for a Republican Nomination as State Representative His Platform—Broadband and Voice for Him—All Vote for Him. Standing squerely upon this motto, "Actions speak louder than words." Wm. T. Spence of the W. T. Spence Realty Co., headquarters, 11502 St. Clair Ave., City, seeks a nomination for State Representative on the Republican ticket, at the primary election, Aug. 12, 1930. For sixteen years, Mr. Spence has been a real-estate broker in Cleveland. Mr. William T. Spence. During this time, he has earned an enviable reputation for honesty and square-dealing, which, together with his wide experience in business, fits him admirably for the position he is seeking. If there is one thing more than another that is needed in both branches of Ohio State Assembly, it is a membership composed largely of business men. Mr. Spence was born in England, Nov 6, 1875, and educated in public schools. He was a professional cricketer and coach for fourteen years in army, colleges, etc., and naturally is exceptionally fit, physically. In his platform, he announces that he stands for the old-age pension with the stigma of charity removed; for modification of the 18th Amendment under government control, and for the stoppage of the wicked wasting of the people's money and people's lives, under the false guise of prohibition. He urges penal reform and a lowering of taxes in Cuyahoga county and the state of Ohio; believes in legalizing horse racing and in placing it under state control, and in encouraging industries to locate in Ohio rather than to leave the state because of excess taxes. Broadminded and progressive, Mr Spence harbors no prejudices, but believes in trying to help all deserving fellow-men without reference to class, race or color. Therefore, no mistake will be made by nominating him as a candidate for State Representative on the Republican ticket. As a matter of fact, a vote for Mr Spence means a vote for progress. So remember him when you go to the polls, Tuesday, Aug. 12, 1930. JACKSON SEEKS RE-NOMINATION ON HIS RECORD! Hon. Perry B. Jackson, our member of the state legislature from this county and the only Afro-American in the Ohio Assembly, formally nounces his candidacy for re-nomination, subject to the Republican primaries, Tuesday, Aug. 12. In a statement, Tuesday, to a representative of "The Old Reliable" Gazette Jackson said: "I am going to ago the people had to take me on faith. They elected me and I realized that a tremendous responsibility to "make good" rested upon my shoulders. I believe that I have done so. I read every bill presented for consideration. As a result I was able to block several efforts to enact and repeal legislation which would have resulted in discrimination against our people." Among Jackson's accomplishments are: 1. Blocking the effort to repeal the statute making "fnetting to riot and mob violence", criminal offenses. This statute is a protection to minority groups. 2. Blocking the attempt to require fraternal organizations to register their name and insignia which would have injured our Masons, Elks, K. of P. and Odd Fellows because they would have been barred, in this state, if white Masons, and others, registered first. 3. Striking out the words "race or color" from the new election code. 4. Fought discrimination at Ohio University, Athens, O. In addition to the foregoing Mr. Jackson introduced several bills which were enacted into law and supported all measures of interest to and for the advancement of all the people of this county and state. *We must all vote for Perry!* Mrs. J. A. Chandler, accompanied by Mrs. Inez Cyrus, sister, and brother, Donald Campbell, who were en route here to Philadelphia, motored to her home in W. Virginia, last week Wednesday, to spend several weeks. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 9, 1930. OPPOSED PARKER! The Closing Days of the Primary Campaign Finds Copland Strongest Contender for State Senator — Was "Runner-up," Two Years Ago. As the primary election comes closer and closer and as a better prospective candidate stands ahead for the Legislature is obtained, there is one candidate for state senator who stands out in bold relief, and that is 307 1051 DAVID COPLAND Many of the manifestations of present-day interest in our people by candidates in their effort to get votes is really laughable. But one can safely gauge a person's future actions by how he has acted toward us in the past. If this is a criterion, and it surely is, at this time no candidate has been titled to the solid support of our voters of this county than David Copland. Always a strong contender for the rights of the minority, and minority groups, he has many times in the past shown himself a friend of our people. This reminds us of a debate, Mr. Copland got into Prof. Powell of Harvard University and in the early part of April Prof. Powell was stumping the country in behalf of Judge John J. Parker of South Carolina, giving his reasons why Parker was a fit nominee to the U. S. supreme bench. After his address, Copland took exception to his statements, saying among other things, and quoting from the Cleveland law, "That any person, or judge, who refuses to abide by the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the U. S. constitution and who completely ignores the rights of people under these amendments, has no right to be a justice of the U. S. supreme court. I most emphatically and unqualifiedly say that any man who disregards that, or any other part of the law, shall be bound, SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED to the supreme court bench." This was the proper stand, taken on behalf of the people by Mr. Copland, and thru it he has earned our respect and confidence. Knowing also that he is a man who is honest and fearless, with the courage of his convictions, we feel that every voter of our group should see to it. We are proud that he has voted her vote for state senator at the primaries, Tuesday. By doing this, we will be serving best our own vital interests. VOTE FOR JERRY ZMUNT. No county commissioner in any county has functioned more ably than Jerry R. Zmunt, who first won the confidence and vote of the people of this county for that office in 1921. Three times, they have returned him to office and each time he has kept faith with the people by standing firm as a rock for the things that are right. Last week, when "whites" of Miles Heights village were attempting to annex their section of Commissioner Zmunt. the village to the city, leaving out the "black" section, Mr. Zmunt saw what the proposed annexation of a part of Miles Heights village would do to our people, got busy and secured the vote of his colleague, Walter E. Cook, to put an end to Mr. Zmunt's plan. We will talk about the annexation of any village, except when it was on the level and wanted to come in as a whole. The office of county commissioner requires a man who is fair, square and just, one who will stand eternally for right. We firmly believe that Jerry Zmunt records show and proves. Therefore, the Gazette earnestly asks the vote of every Afro-American in Cuyahoga County for Jerry. OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280.

Our most-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 "junching" 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 injury, including 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 6228. 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 child, such children 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 recovery 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 next succeeding year, the judgment, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case.

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 costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person from any seriously injured person from any 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.) 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 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 'aw. 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: MOBS such lynching on 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: Sec. 12340. 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 facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12341. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than the hundreds dollars to the persecutors 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. GEORGE B. HARRIS FOR PROSECUTOR The Cleveland Bar Association by recent vote of its members has endorsed the office of Prosecuting Attorney of Cuvahoga County; 2 GEORGE B. HARRIS The duties of the Prosecuting Attorney cover not only the entire field of the administration of the criminal laws within the county but embrace also all matters of a civil nature in which the county and its officials are involved. These duties are often intricate and complex and require legal ability of a high order. The degree of involvement involved and the office should be as well organized as that of any large law firm in the city. The Cleveland Bar Association again asked George B. Harris, Republican, one of the outstanding lawyers of Cleveland to be a candidate. He has opposition for the nomination at the Primary, August 27. The referendum vote of the members of the Cleveland Bar Association was conducted and Mr. Harris was endorsed for the office of Prosecuting Attorney. This program was carried on for the purpose of endeavoring to make certain that the Republican party ticket and the party election ballot would bear the name of a candidate for Prosecuting Attorney who would be a lawyer of marked ability and integrity. Mr. Harris is such a man. Geo. Gur, one of our oldest Pullman porters, died, Sunday, and was buried, Wednesday. He was well-known. Many friends and acquaintances mourn his demise.
