An "Unprecedented Opportunity" Labor by Government, Says Bishop Thirkield. To the Editor:—Let me thank you for your pertinent and strong utterance on the segregation of the Gold Star mothers and forms of discrimination imposed on them in their sacred journey to the graves of our American heroes. Deeper than any deprivation or discomfort on the part of those noble women who gave their sons for the cause of higher democracy, is the lost opportunity on the part of the officials of the Government on a high, self-respecting level. The lack of this is one of the serious situations in our modern American life. Instead of consolidating the entire number of colored women in one group, rendering it difficult to secure transportation on one of our regular liners, they could have sent them over in small groups, along with groups of white women, and thus have brought the two races into helpful and sympathetic contact. Their mutual semen of common sacrifice would lose the mutual sympathy and regard and would have drawn them into relations helpful to both race groups. It was an unprecedented opportunity through such contacts to greatly further race understanding, co-operation, and good will. It seems to me a case where the yielding to the spirit of caste and race prejudice on the part of certain officials, has retarded rather than helped, race adjustment mutual good will in our American life.

County Prosecutor. ARTHUR H. DAY FRANK MOORE PHOTO PETER H. Prime Sport News "Chocolate" Robbed of the Decision. New York City—The Kid Chocolate-Berg ten-round bout, last week Thursday night, has caused no end of discussion, ever since. That Berg, Jewish fighter from the Whitechapel District of London, Eng., was given the suspects of opinion. Chocolate, a little fellow, out-boxed and out-fought Berg, the larger man. The decision of two of the three fight-offs, awarding the bout to Berg, failed to convince a majority of the 25,000 spectators who gathered in the polo grounds to see the fight. They roared their disapproval of the decision. Yet, the judge, nouncer, considered the Kid the winner, because at the final bell he grabbed the slips of Referee Patsy Haley and the two judges, took a quick look and headed for Chocolate's corner. He took another look, stopped, turned and lifted Berg's hand. His own indecision was an almost the whole of the variegated opinions of the gambler down in front of the ring." This was Chocolate's 168th engagement, in none of which has he been defeated. Berg, a full-fledged lightweight and junior champion, weighs LYNCHINGS POLITICS IN THEM Southern Democratic Policy and Lily-White Republicans', Too—Political Brigands—America's Problem—Lynching Must Go! (Special to The Gazette) The lynching of two colored youths of Marion, Indiana, was as barbed an act as might be read of or seen in the words of the late Jesse is evident from the report of the daily press that politics had its part in this lynching. Some high official, whose name was not given (the alibi of a coward), stated that citizens were incensed because of "lenency being shown colored accused," and that they were being urged to take prominent part in politics. Any investigation that does not show that the sheriff was a part to this lynching shoot was the signal to the mob to get their men and nothing would be done about it. Any sheriff that refuses to uphold the law and gives way to a mob should be removed and forever disqualified from holding office. The oft-repeated lie that colored men make attacks upon white women has been exploded. The attempt on the part of low-bred white men to murder colored men, and hide behind the skirts of white women, cannot be the life of whites as known and seen. If these colored youths committed a crime they should have been given a fair and impartial trial. Men who would lynch boys are not to be believed or trusted with government. Lynching is the "white" man's subterfuge, to discredit his own ability to govern. The prevention of colored men taking a part in politics is southern Democratic and K. K. K. policy. Colored citizens have the right to take part in politics, and profit thereby, as much as any other citizens. Any group that denies colored men this right is a set of political brigands. White men that join themselves together in mobs to take the law into their own hands must die. If white men have lost faith in each other, so much till they are unwilling to abide by the law, the man they must take the law in hand who will enforce it impartially and justify and make white criminals know that they are not bigger than the law. A most reprehensible thing, done by the authorities of Marion, was the rushing of white policemen, secret detectives and plain clothesmen into the colored district of Marion to keep the colored men unarmed while the white hoodlums were free to arm themselves, go where they pleased and shoot down any Negro they felt like shooting. The author-ly himself is abcknowled blased. When he himself is abcknowled group of citizens should be prevented from protecting themselves. In almost all of the cases of outbreaks between races, the officers of the law are there to keep unarmed the Negroes while white men break down jails, run out the judges and ed ten pounds heavier than the Kid, champion feather-weight. No one can read an account of the fight by rounds but what will be impressed with the fact that Chocolate won at least six rounds and Berg four as indicated on The Associated Press score sheet. Chocolate had a clear margin in the first three rounds and the 6th, 7th and 8th. Berg weighed 133½ pounds and the Kid 124 pounds. The gate receipts were $160,000. Baby Joe Gans, de luxe welterweight from San Diego, Cal., had the better of Eddie Murdock (white) slightly bald batter from Tulsa, in a hard-bound final knock after the main bout. Gans easily won the decision after cutting Murdock about the eyes in the late rounds. Murdock was floored for a count of two by a right to the chin in the final round. Gans weighed 142 pounds. Murdock 143½%. "Kid Chocolate" Won. Dy Damon Runyon. New York, Aug. 8.—I shall always believe to my dying day that Kid Chocolate was entitled to that decision over Jack Berg (Jew) last night. I believe that the slender Afro-Cuban in this battle, spotting the Englishman all of ten or twelve pounds, demonstrated that he is the greatest little ringman of these times. This was Chocolate's first real thorough test on his bid to fistle greatness, and while he isn't yet a George Dixon at the featherweight limit, he isn't far off that classification. Defence Hale and his supporter jumbo man have had credit merely for rushing. He certainly didn't land a third as many clean punches as Chocolate. At a distance it may have looked as if Berg's body mauling was having a damaging effect on Chocolate. As a matter of downright fact, Chocolate blocked eight out of ten of Berg's body blows with his elbows.

The problem of America is to make the white men who make the law, interpret the law, enforce or charged with enforcing the law, have respect for that which they are responsible. This gathering together of Negroes in Marion for self-pro- tection is but the beginning of an organized effort on the part of Negroes to protect themselves from Rev. Wm. A. Byrd. mob violence. That these Negro mobs will give the white mobs as good as they send no one need fear. We dread the thought of this but if this is the method to stop lynching the mobs, it will at least center the punishment upon the destroyers of the law. Lynching must go! Negroes are going to participate in politics everywhere they are. Those attempting to prevent them will be met with firmness and whatever else necessary to maintain the rights of citizens. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. OLDEST HAITIAN EX- PRESIDENT FAVORS NEGRO U. S. MINISTER M. Legitimate, Now 85. Also Wants U. S. to take over the administration of Treaty in 1876. Port au Prince, Haiti—Although Haiti's 27th president now holds the reins of office, F. Deus Legitime, Haiti's 14th president, lives in retirement in a quiet villa here with his children and grandchildren at the age 85. Of the thirteen presidents who have held office since President Legitime was forced out of office Aug. 22, 1889, and compelled to exile himself for six years Jamaica, laos, and France, all exiled, now 28. In Borno, now exiled in France, are dead. Strangely enough, ex-President Legitime owes his sudden retirement from office and flight to Jamaica 41 years ago to the United States, which through its minister here, the late Dr. John Thompson, fomented a revolution led by General F. M. Florvil Hippolyte. In rebellion against Hippolyte promised to help Haitian troops the north, Mole St. Nicholas, to the United States as a naval base. Hippolyte was unable to carry out his part of the agreement because of the strenuous objection of the people of Haiti; and Frederick Douglass, who succeeded Dr. Thompson as American minister three months after the revolution, resigned his part of the agreement rather than carry through the Pioneer war which had the approval of the U. S. State Department. Two things M. Legitime says he the would request if he were the head of the government today; one of them is that the United States would send colored ministers to Haiti instead of white, and the other that the American marines and officials clear out when the treaty expires in 1936 and leave Haitians to run their own country. Haitians to run their own country, M. Legitime says he to be an president. M. Legitime is "fine. He pointed out that he is in good interest in politics, and has every expectation of living to be 115 as his grandfather did. When the revolution began, he declared, the people were loyal to him; only the military backed by the United States, opposed. As he took船 to Jamaica, he said crowds lined the streets and saw him, for he had no police only eight months and seven days. Hippolyte died after six years in office. M. Legitime immediately returned and was royally welcomed by the populae—Baltimore Afro-American. --- PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY (In Advance) One Year . . . $2.00 Six Months . . . 1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1930. The Cleveland City Council has been asked to approve bonds totaling $36,200,000 before the issues can go on the ballot in November, following the addition of a bond issue of $1,200,000 to be used for a downtown ("jim-crow") emergency hospital within the next five years. Thus does Welfare Director Dudley Blossom, he of "Color-line" City hospital notoriety, get into the bond issue business. Just think of it—thirty-six million dollars! Maybe that wouldn't raise your rent, taxes etc. THINK! Our South End political club, of which the Hon. Perry B. Jackson is president, had a picnic at Woodland Hill's park, last week Thursday. About two weeks ago, Mr. Jackson announced that all of the facilities of the park, including the pool, would be at the disposal of the picnickers. When they arrived on the scene, Thursday, they found the pool had been drained and the swings and other playthings for children taken down. A strange proceeding for a city that boasts of "three colored councilmen," a member of the Ohio legislature, a member of the city civil service commission, and a member of the school board. Instead of progressing, it looks very much as if we were retrograding, as far as our rights and privileges in public places, particularly those of this city, are concerned. INDIANA'S LYNCHING. The Marion, Indiana, lynching on last week Thursday night, proves one thing beyond all question of doubt, and that is that the Ku Klux Klan is far and away from being dead in that state. From all we can learn, Jack Edwards, the boy mayor of the town, conveniently left on the afternoon of the night the lynching occurred only to return the following morning in time to issue a statement which announced that our leaders of Marion had asked him for troops because they expected "violence shortly in revenge for the lynching of the Two Negroes the night before." Of course the mayor purposely used the words "in revenge" in order to mislead everyone who read his misstatement. Our leaders of that city as a matter of fact, asked him to send for troops to guard lives and property because they feared more mob violence like that which resulted in the lynchings of Thomas Sipp and Abe Smith on the lawn of the Grant county court house in that city, Thursday night, Aug. 7, 1930. Dispatches from Marion informed the public that "Edwards, known as the boy mayor, was elected on a Democratic ticket with strong support from the Ku Klux Klan and Republicans opposing the shaking off of the Klan yoke by the Republican party;" also that "Edwards was formerly a prize fighter. Other Marion officials of recent years also have been Klan supported and the outburst of racial violence was blamed tonight on persistent embers of the Klan movement whose hooded members not so long ago roamed the Indiana countryside without any official interference." With the Kluxers dominating in Indiana for so many years, the only wonder is that a lynching has been delayed as long as it has. TUESDAY'S PRIMARY. With the Ohio Republican candidates for U. S. Senator and for governor, and several on the local county ticket on the defensive, and the state and local Democratic tickets the strongest in many years, the prospect for Republican success, this fall, is anything but encouraging, to say the least. As we have taken occasion to say in the past, the economic situation, coupled with President Hoover's and the Congress courses in the Parker and soldier's bonus, and tariff and other matters of general interest, respectively, and the opposition of organized labor and other elements to state and local candidates, are all contributory to the uncertainty of Republican success in November. Then, too, this is an off year, the one in which it is customary for Republican defeat to come, if it comes at all. Therefore, it behooves our people of this county to be up and doing, from now until election day in November, in the interest of our only candidate on the ticket, the Hon. Perry B. Jackson, who is seeking a second term in the Ohio Legislature. We are free to confess that his triumphant nomination, Tuesday, was a most agreeable surprise. It looked very much, during the closing days of the primary, that he was not going to be nominated, largely because of the muddying of the political waters hereabout by those "Blossom Triplets". Councilmen Payne and Bundy, who are serving their first and last term in the Cleveland city council. OUR FORTY-EIGHT YEAR: With this issue, "The Old Reliable" Gazette enters upon its forty-eighth year of continuous publication, every week on time. Forty-seven years ago, this paper made its first appearance, with the writer at the helm as part-owner, editor and manager. Many years ago, he purchased the interests of the other three members of the company and ever since the burden of and responsibility for the publication of The Gazette has rested upon his shoulders. How successful we have been is a matter of common knowledge the country over, and of personal pride on our part, for The Gazette's accomplishments were and are vitally important, many and varied. They recommend it, too, in the strongest possible manner especially to the loyal of the race when ever they may be. As a direct result of the efforts of The Gazette many years ago, the notorious "Black Laws" of Ohio were wiped out, and an effective Civil Rights law, and Mob Violence act or Anti-Lynch law enacted by the Ohio General Assembly. This paper, as all know has never failed to do all in its power to help, defend and protect our people, not only of Ohio but of the entire country. It has time and again blazed the way to wiser and better political and other action, and "turned back" the "jim-crow Negro" who is a more treacherous and dangerous opponent of real racial progress than any other enemy of the race. Indeed, "The Old Reliable" Gazette has stood out in the open all of its forty-seven years of life like a beacon light, fearless and unafraid, never faltering and always determined. What it has done in hundreds of other instances to help, defend and encourage our people along all lines of endeavor that lead to greater and better progress is a matter of general knowledge throughout the country. We refer particularly to its efforts against discrimination, national, state and municipal, and in favor of all that was helpful to the race. Personal and business interests have always been subordinated by its editor to those of the race, and The Gazette's clarion call to Afro-Americans, generally, in season and out, has been to accept nothing in the way of treatment that is less than that all citizens, without reference to class (race) or color, are entitled to. When it comes to our citizen-rights, here in the North, we have been and always will be, unalterably opposed to any "doctrine of surrender," or conciliatory policy, so insidiously preached, in this day and time, by "jim-crow Negroes" and their foolproof white masters. The Gazette believes in demanding for our people, in this section of the country at least, and in continuing to fight for, ALL that is due all American citizens, under the law. THIS IS OUR SLOGAN! Its firm adherence to principle, thrue all these years, together with its known accomplishments, are its best recommendations for continued and greater support, and we respectfully ask it. To our faithful following of the past forty-seven years — thousands of readers in all parts of the country, from ocean to ocean and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf — we have only expressions of sincerest appreciation. There is, however, one thing we would ask of all our readers, at this time, and that is that they urge their friends and acquaintances to become subscribers of "The Old Reliable" Gazette and in this way assist it to materially increase its circulation and power for good. For all you have done in the past, we thank you, and again assure you of our sincere appreciation. Harry C. Smith, Thompson-Freeman According to word from Chicago, Tuesday night, young Jack Thompson, world champion welter-weight, (white) will stage a 15-round bout here in Cleveland at League park, Sept. 4 or 5. Ray Alvis, Thompson's manager, says he has accepted a guarantee of $37,500 for the champion's service against Freeman. Tommy is said to hold one "verdict" over Thompson, gained in Detroit, last winter, before the latter won the title from Jackie Fields of Chicago. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1930 OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years’ Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-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 very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio’s lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. Like Pennsylvania and New Jersey the Ohio law follows: MO Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" define 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal 6283. Person suffering death or injury 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and Guardian's custody, etc., fees 6287. County's right of action again 6288. County's right of action again 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Mob includes recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. 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 character. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (63 v. 161 2.) 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 Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as permanently 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 is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receives, and the child of the share.

A person present, with hostile intent, I have been reading your nut letters long enough and am tired of listening to you crab about your wife so I'm writing you one which will give the public a chance to get an idea of what kind of a chump has been getting all this mail from you for several years. You keep telling me you ain't afraid of your wife but why don't you TELL HER. I may be in a bush town but I know enough to run my house which is more than you do. And listen don't send me no more postal cards with secrets on them because the whole neighborhood knows about it and they think around here that Grant and Lee was more friendly than your wife and you which may be right. Your friend very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey The Ohio law follows: IBS. ed. representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. inst member of mob inst another county. at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action.

(93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enforced while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. 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, will enjoy of the accommodations and privileges 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. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law 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. HERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY!

It was too bad that one of our bands was not hired to play instead of the one used, because Spitalty's has had several such engagements already this season. Frequently the splendid chorus' singing was roundly enced. It was organized by a committee, at the head of which was Mrs. Grace Willis Thompson, and directed by her husband, Harry E. Thompson, leader of St. John's, and Scott, leader of St. John's A. M. E. choir.

It was the Southwestern Civic Republican club that held the picnic. Newman said Vogt had been ordered to drain the pool at night and that it was the regular policy of his department not to drain pools until after darkness lest swimmers be inconvenienced.

Others in the order of their finish were Cy Leland, Texas Christian; Claude Bracey, Rice institute; Crosby Pendleton, University of Washington, and Don Bennett, also of Ohio State. The two were second in Time, 20.9. Simpson also trailed behind Tolan in this event. Champion Eddie! HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! Bundy says: "I asked my colleagues (George and Payne) to stand by me in support of one candidate (Day) and I was led to believe that of us were for Arthur-Day. It was my impression that we had agreed. Then one day a conference was called. Some agreed to go one way, but I stood where I was." "There are women in this audience who have passed civil service examinations and were eligible for appointment, but they were not appalled because they are black."—Bundy. For which blame our three councilmen, member of the Board of Education and Civil Service Commission. "The acid test of my Republicanism came last winter when all asked the removal of Mr. Hopkins and blossom to save the party."—Bundy. And "The Blossom Triplets" failed to keep their pledge to the people to help out Blossom. John W. Love, Cleveland Plain Dealer columnist, said "a mouthful" in that paper, Wednesday, when he wrote the following: There is one service which the County Council might now do for the colorado workers to work thru its alliances with organized labor to prevalon on all unions to admit COLORED MEMBERSHIP." Organized labor will never gain the success and its ultimatum, or goal, it has worked so long and hard for in this country until they do that very thing. Mr. Love has given his opinion on the problem. It can never fully succeed until it learns the lesson which Mr. Love preaches—all unions must be open for "colored membership" just as they are to all other kinds of people. Full and complete success can never be attained in any other way, careers or segregated unions, forced on any of the workers will not be tolerated, particularly by Afro-American workers. The twelfth ward gave Harris 1,956 to 255 for Day, a majority of 1,701. The eleventh ward, where Councilman Lawrence O. Payne and former Councilman Thomas W. Fleming both supported Harris, also gave Day carried the comfortable majority. Day carried the comfortable majority eighteenth (Councilman George's ward), and the nineteenth ward. The majorities were not large and as lopsided, however, as the Harris majorities in the twelfth and eleventh. So the "Roaring Third" after all was loyal to the Republican oracle of Mr. Maurice Maschke, even if Councilman George and his ward were not, OF course. Bundy is thru when his first term in the city council expires with next year. His "noise" at the St. James A. M. E. church meeting, last week, threatening the "bosses", was only a windy day as everyone was done to the church the last week to do him, next year in the fall, will be a plenty. He will be " thrown out of the council" just as it was threatened, the first of last week, to throw Mr. Maschke out of the 17th ward if he came there speaking for Geo. B. Harris. This did not scare any as hooded, for Mr. Maschke was the day evening, at Mt. Zion Cong, church, the biggest and finest meeting held in ward 17 during the campaign. Bundy is thru! The local daily newspapers give the credit for Arthur H. Day's success to organized labor. Apparently they are not familiar with the very important part in it played by the "numbers" racketeers who from all reports put up the cash to nominate Day. They worked hard, with their money and with hundreds of individuals with whom they come in personal contact and who "play the numbers", to put Day over in the lorebed. The 19th, 18th and 19th. They were, however, beaten in wards 18 and 12 and would have been beaten in wards 18 and 19 if Councilman Clayborne George had worked as hard for George B. Harris as he did to remain passive, as between Harris and his competitor (Day) who won the Republican nomination for county prosecutor. Like Councilman Larry Payne, he, too, was supposed to have been active for the Republican organization's candidate (Harris). Neither of these "Bloomberg" workers working for Harris, Payne's bounty at the splendid meeting in Mt. Zion Cong, church, Monday evening, that he would have three hundred and eight workers in ward 11, Tuesday, contained a large element of truth. It would be interesting indeed to know where the money came from to pay all of these workers. As a 10 Here's the way to keep comfortable when hot summer days come.

Day's success is real- lized by the "number" rackets labeled and the "number" rackets If J. W. Willis, Sr. had listened to "The Old Reliable" Gazette rather than to the councilmanic "bobblegush" (Bundy), he would have saved a good deal of money, wasted in his alleged candidacy for state senator, "bucking the local Republican organization" as counselled by the effervescent one (Bundy). Atty. Mose Dixon made a very good showing as a candidate for state representative without the organization's "masters" money, most Bibernally spent, was too much for the Flemings in ward 11. It is not at all surprising that they lost out in their contest with "The Boosom Triplet" (Payne). Wonder if the three dollars, "Billy" Williams said Bundy told him he had received from Mr. Hanna, really came in full or part from that source or from the "numbers" racketeers. No wonder Mrs. Fleming said in explaining her role in the three Counties with people around here, meaning in the 11th ward. Continuing, she said, "We (meaning herself and husband) can't afford to do that any more." It surely looks like the "numbers" racketeers were financially interested in the defeat of the Flemings as well as George B. Harris, candidate for county prosecutor against the nominee, Arthur H. Day. They were getting back at the Republican organization for the activity of the Flemings in the three District which the two "Blossom Triplets" (Payne and Bundy) help to micropresent in the Cleveland city council. During the closing days of the campaign, particularly Monday and Tuesday of this week, there were persistent rumors that the Arthur H. Day candidacy for the Republican nomination for County Prosecutor and Councilman Larry Payne's candidacy for leader of ward 11 were being backed by the promoters of the numbers" racket in this city, free use of money, Councilman Bundy going so far as to say, early last week, to "Billy" (W. W. Williams, according to the latter, that he (Bundy) had received $1000 from Mr. Hanna. Of course hardly anyone believed the story, but the fact still remains that some person or persons financed the Bender-Bundy "Day" candidacy activity, and Fleming's former Councilman Thomas W. and his wife, Mrs. Lethia C. The large number of Payne workers at the various booths in the ward, far out-numbering all others, made one believe the claim, made last week by some of Payne's workers, to the effect that he had been given $2,000 to help him in his ward fight. The story goes that the police raids the "numbers" racketeers caused them to raise a fund four thousand dollars which was used to promote the candidacies referred to in the foregoing. This money was effective because of the fact that so 4415 So. Porkway Chicago, Ill.

Godfrey Sues for the $5,000. Philadelphia, Pa. — George Godfrey, Leiperville, Pa. heavyweight, through his attorney Ray P. Alexander, has filed suit in the common pleas here against Herman Taylor and Robert Gunnis, individually and trading as the firm of Taylor & Gunnis, claiming the sum of $5,000 and interest is due him on the contract under which he fought Primo Cararner, Italy's giant heavyweight, here the night of June 23. In Godfrey's statement of claim he avers that on March 6, last, the two defendants entered into a contract him to box Cararner for the sum of $15,000, with the bout and "did perform, in all respects, all conditions, covenants, duties and requirements which he agreed to perform in said contract," Godfrey states he was paid only $5,000. Now he seeks recovery of the other half of his stipulated purse plus interest. The night of the bout Referee Tommy Reilly ruled Godfrey struck Cararner a foul blow and stopped the bout in the fifth round of the bout. As a result of Reilly's decision the state athletic commission ordered Godfrey paid only for five of the ten rounds for which the bout was booked. The other $5,000 was taken by the state as a fine and Godfrey's boxing license was revoked. Walter b.

They should not cease their efforts with the recent mass meeting, hold in Zion Cong. church, where a strong set of resolutions 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.

Now that the use of two or more colors together fs an outstanding trend of the mode, the idea 1s being put into effect with gratifying results, in the styling of frocks for little girls. For the attractive dress in the picture, the Parls designer very successfully works shantung in contrast, using ciel blue for the yoke and the wide bor der at the hemline, with natural toned for the body of the dress.

A little more than three years ago the first commercial radio tele. phone channel between Great Bri tain and North America was open: ed, There are now four such chan- nels and the demand for facilities is steadily inereasing. Last April, telephon< service was inanguraied between North and South America, thus linking the 20,000 telephones in the United States, as well as those in 3alboa, Mexico and Canada, with several of the principal countries of the South.
