More Good Work by the County Commissioners Led by Jerry Zmunt—Additional Representation Given Our People of This Community. Lawrence J. Powell, 8925 Cedar Ave., was on Tuesday appointed to the visiting agents' staff of the County Child Welfare Board. Mr. Powell is a graduate of Morehouse College, class of '27. In announce the an- PETER J. Lawrence J. Powell, pointment J. T. Sweeney, president of the Child Welfare Broad, paid a high compliment to Mr. Powell on account of his splendid standing and qualifications. Only persons of the highest caliber were involved in educational and character standpoint, are eligible for this type of work which has to do with the care of dependent and neglected children, legal residents of Cuyahoga County. The County Child Welfare Board was organized on Dec. 31, 1929 by the present Board of County Commissioners, J. R. Zmunt, Walter E. Cook and J. H. Harris. This move on the part of the County Commissioners is considered by the foremost welfare authorities as one of if not the greatest forward movement ever initiated by County Officials in the history of Cuyahoga County. The Child Welfare Board is caring over 900 children and it is expected that in 1931 the load will be increased to approximately 1200, at a total cost of over $400,000. The service rendered dependent and neglected children is complete in every detail including food, clothing, medical attention, education and recreation. Children are housed in foster homes carefully selected and regularly supervised by the County Commissioners, who are known as visiting agents. The County Commissioners are entitled to great credit for their favorable attitude in promoting welfare activities and especially so when such activity has to do with the child who may find himself dependent, sick, neglected and in numerous cases totally abandoned. Commissioners Cook and Harris were led in their support of Lawrences Jerry R. Zmunt whose candidacy for re-election in November, should and will be supported en mass by our people of this community.

Good Personal Conduct and Intelligent Use of the Ballot Will Establish Our Prestige and Secure Proper Representation in the Government—West Point and Annapolis Cadets. "Communism is trying to inculcate in the Afro-American worker the idea that in Communism lies the solution of all his problems," said Congressman Oscar DePriest of Chicago, last week Thursday night, at the thirteenth national biennial convention of Southern Congregational Workers Among Colored People held at Mt. Zion church. "If Communism gets its hold on our people it will mean that they will be marked, they will be unable to find employment. They will starve. Through our press and pulpit of the country faith in the existing government must be spread and a healthy, manly sentiment created in the Afro-American." The two weapons with which the race might fight for its rightful position, DePriest believes, are its own personal conduct which it must use to gain respect and intelligent use of resources. It may establish its prestige, and secure the representation it should have in the government. Outlines His Policy. "I'm not in Congress to suit the president," the old said. "I'm down there to sit the American people, my people. If a man can not serve the group he's identified with, he'd better stay at home. I DOINGS OF THE RACE. The veteran editor and proprietor of The Gazette, the Hon. Harry C. Smith, is to be congratulated upon his consistent and aggressive record during all these years.—N. Y. Age. James Carter of Chicago, recently appointed, is our first guard at the Illinois state penitentiary at Joliet Ohio has had Afro-Americans as state penitentiary guards for at least half a century. One of our two "National Baptist conventions" met in Chicago, last week, while the other will convene in N. Y. City, next week. A regimental band of Congo, Africa, natives drew a large crowd to its public concerts in the great palace at Brussels, Belgium, last Saturday. On Sept. 20, 1870, Hon. John P. Green, of Cleveland, O., was admitted to practice law at Bennetsville, S. C. On the 20th of this month, he will have been in practice 60 hours. He now has eleven cases on his docker. He pleas and the municipal court, one a manslaughter case. Ex-State Sen- P. B. ator Green is the oldest practicing attorney of the race in this country, according to the president of our National Bar association, and one of, if not the oldest attorney (without reference to race or group) practicing at the local bar in Cleveland. Fifty or more years ago William Williams, brother-in-law of Anderson H. Bowman of Maud Ave, an old resident of Cleveland. O., was sent to Rome, Italy, by Bishop Raphael M. Cohen, diocese, study for the priesthood, return to this country, he was stationed in Platts' library at Baltimore, a Catholic institution. THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWBIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans.

If I don't send them, who else will?" He commended the church on the interest it is taking in civic affairs. OJCAR D.C. He believes that through the Christi- hion influence the church can exert the decent part of the population may be made to take an interest in the enforcement of law. DePriest indicated that he resents the attitude taken toward his place in Congress. "I didn't go down there as a 'Negro' Congressman," he said. "I went there as a 'Negro' in Congress." What Faces the Church Three major problems, economic, fraternal and political, face the church of today, according to Rev. George J. Thomas of Winston-Salem, N. C., president of the Southern Congregational Workers, who addressed the opening session of the convention, last week Wednesday night. "The church must teach that while man must have bread on which to subsist, bread is not the whole of life" he said. "There are things man must have more than money. And they who have money must not hesitate to spend it for the social uplift of mankind." The present problem of unemployment must be met by those manufacturers and employers who are in a financial condition that permits them to aid the jobless, he said. Urges Race Loyalty. "The Negro' must make more noise about race loyalty, business integrity, helpful and peaceful organization, cooperation and substantial contribution to the upward trend of civilization." Rev. Mr. Thomas said. "We should feel that we have a place in American life as well as the white man he needs us as well as we need him. Mr. Keyy is our loyalty. We should keep some good member of the race in the legislative halls of the nation." SOVIET DEPORTS TWO "CRACKERS" Stalingrad, Russia.—The prejudiced American mechanics, Lewis and Brown, employed at the soviet tractor plant here, last Saturday plant here, deportation for ten years on charges, an Afro-American worker, named Robinson. They threw him out of a public restaurant. The court at first gave the "crackers" a verdict of two years imprisonment but the sentence was made more severe on demand of the prosecutor and the press. This is the kind of action needed in Haifa and America. The Kinsman Heights Men's club clam-bake and picnic, Labor day, at Vass park, Stop 24% Kinsman Rd., drew a goodly attendance, all of whom enjoyed themselves greatly in spite of the shower in the middle of the afternoon. Bowling and dancing to the music of King Tung orchestra were thoroly enjoyed, whilte the children used the playground, swings, and the manner in charge of Mr. and Mrs. Evanne, the speakers were Dr. Edward A. Bailey and the editor of The Gazette. --- PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY SUBSCRIPTION KATES (in, Advance) One Year ..ec.eeec cee ee es 582.00 Bix Months -.....0. 02.2.5, 1.00 Sudseribers are requested to remit by postoftice money ordor or registered letter.

Thanks, good friend. —l!i—— We had hoped that by this time Congressman Oscar DePriest would realize that there is something else for him to do in addition to appoint- ing our boys to West Point and An- napolls, and that is, he must at least try to bring to bear Influence from the proper source that will put a stop to the officials of the U.S. Mil- itary and Naval academies “flunk- ing” our candidates for cadetships he appoints and thus keeping the doors of those institutions closed to itanicaaibhn: sont: Congressman Oscar DePriest said in his speech at Mt. Zion Congrega- tlonal church, inst week Thursday night, “if a man or woman in a po- litical position, cannot serve the group they are identified with, they had better stay at home. ‘The TRUTH! Wo commend this stronsly to the earuest consideration of Mrs. Mary B: Martin, ‘our member of the Cleveland Schoo! board, and ‘The Blossom Triplets,” Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy, all of whom in a greater or less degree apparently have failed to sense and Tecognize this fact, one many of their constithents of color are busily discussing, these days. till WORK FOR JERRY R. ZMUNT. Prior to the recent primaries, which were held on Aug. 12, 1930, we urged the renomination of Jerry GL R. Zmunt, because he was our old- est and most experienced county commissioner and one of the best Cuyahoga county has ever had. Also ‘because, as in that Miles Heights village controversy when he refused to become a party to an effort which prejudiced residents of the village were making to place at a disadvan- tage our people out-there, just so it has been all thru Jerry Zmunt’s carcer—absolutely fair to all classes or groups of people, and especially so to ours. If any of our people in this Community, or in this county, need additional proof of this fact, they can find it in the appointment, on Tuesday of this week, of Lawr- ence J. Powell to a very responsible position under the County Child ‘Welfare board. For it was Jefry R. Zmunt who induced his colleagues, Walter Cook and Jack Harris, to help him put it over, thus adding to our Fepresentation among the em- ployees of this city and county. ‘Just at this time, some organized labor-leaders are making a strenu- ‘ouw eltort 16 datect Jerry 0. Zmunt, on election day in November, and are endeavoring to enlist the assist- ance of members of our group in common with others. We have only to remember that Afro-Americans only are barred from membership in thefr unions and grossly insulted by being asked to organize separate or “jim-crow” unions in the face of the Tact that about every other race on the face of the globe, many of them Rot even citizens, are represented in the membership of the various unfons. So it is not for us to join with them in their fight on Jerry R. Zmunt, but it is our “bounden” duty to do everything In our power to hélp elect Mr. Zmunt who shows his triendship for the race in practical ways that are both helpful and en- souraging. Help those who help us! Sea HARMPUL STATEMENTS. pamdressing .the convention of Southern Congregational workers among our people held in Mt. Zion Congregationa! church, last week, Rey. George J. Thomas of Winston- Salem, North Carolina, among other things (some very good) said on Wednesday evening: “The Negro must make less noise about social recognition on the part of the whites". Also, “The white man can no more represent the ‘Negro’ in the political aretia of life than the ‘Nexro’ can represent the white man” Both of these are “stock in trade” statements. that “Negroes” in. the South are in the habit of making in that section, and unfortunately oc- casionally when in this section, in an effort to toady to the prejudiced whites of both sections of the coun- try, particularly those in the South. Both are unfortunate and especially harmful statements when made in this section of the country, because they are wrong and misleading. In the first place neither the “Negro” in the South nor in the North is making “noige about social recogni tion. In the second place, he ts entitled to it just as much as any other group or race in this country. Social recognition is regulated by its participants, all of whom are entitled to it, without reference to class or color, in an equal dezree and with- out any reference to group or class. So when the Rev. Mr. Thomas, or any other person, in making refer- ‘ence to the matter of social recogni- tion would give out the impression that the foregoing is not true, he is making a statement that is wrong and harmful, as we have already stated, and should do his toadying to the prejudiced in the South while there and not in the North where he only helps to retard the progress Jot those of the race in this section. His other statement is equally per- fnicious and untrue, because just what he says cannot be done is be- ing done daily in this section of the country—"Negroes” represent their own and the other group “in the po- litical arena of life” just as whites also successfully represent their own and our people, each knowing the in- side of the other group’s life well enough to do so. The effort to give ‘out the impression generally that the “Negro” must have only “business Gooperation with the whites” should never be made in this section of the country to say the least. Prime Sport News sue cee ae It is told, and correctly, too, that neither Young Jack Thompson, the welterweight champion, vor Tommy Freeman, the contender, has ever Won or lost a fight ona foul, or ‘ever been counted out. That's con- siderable to say of two boxers whose combined years in the game total fourteen, Freeman having started nine years ago, while Thompson made his “debi” in 1925. Tolan Runnerup, This Time. ‘Toronto, Ont., Ca.—George Simp- son, Ohio State flash, scored two vie- tories over Eddie Tolan, sprint ace of the University of Michigan, in an International track meet held here last Saturday, in connection with the Canadian national exhibition. Simp- son won both the 100 and 220-yard events with Tolan runner-up, each time. The Ohio State star ran the 100 in 9 7-10 seconds and then set @ new Canadian record of 20 9-10 in the 220, but failed to equal the time made in the previous two 100-yard international track meets which were won from him by Tolan, one in Can- ada and the other in this country, at Pittsburgh, in Tecent months Simpson was runnerup, each time, ann: A Fine Reception for the Champion. Jack Thompson, welterweight champioft of the world, was met by a local committee of fight-fans, headed by Fred Irvin, local fight-promoter and “Billy” Williams of the Williams Recreation parlors in E. 55th St Clarence B, Shaw and others. Young Jack and his father were met at Roeky River at 1 P. M., last week Wednesday, by a large delegation in fine autos and escorted thru the busi- ness section of the city amid a blast of horns. He was acclaimed on all sides, as he passed thru, by the by- standers. On arriving at the recrea- tion pariors, he was met by a great crowd. After the reception. Young Jack and his father were quartered in the comfortabie home of Officer John Jones, B, 63d St:, where there ‘will be no “raiding” until after Jack feaves the ‘ity, Monday night. He refereed several amateur bouts at the Elks’ boxing show, and was re- ceived with tremendous applause. His championship bout, last night, with Tommy Freeman (white) will be “covered” in our next issue. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1930. ’ ] Cot.

The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! A squad of detectives found a letter, last week, in a trunk of a man arrested, several days previous, at the Hotel Majestic which was addressed to "Marie." The man arrested signed a waiver on a suspicious person charge and was released a few minutes later. He went to Central Police station. Then a great deal of speculation as to the author of the letter, presumably a man. Police know who "Marie" is but are endeavoring to learn the source of the statement in the letter to the effect that vice lords in one of the city's wards were hoping for "protection" (from the police) as a result of the recent change in its political leadership. Among other things, the letter said: I had expected to take you to the conviction but I don't think I will go. Things are looking pretty good now. I have a good ward leader and it looks as though we would get some protection." The initial "J" was signed to the letter. Chief Matowitz refused to disclose the name of the man mentioned in the letter as the new ward leader, or the ward referred to. Several of the "boys" about the Hotel Majestic claim to know the author of the letter and "ward leader" referred to. It would be real interesting to know which of the two is referred to. The public, especially that part of it located in that section of the city, ought to know, and we trust that Chief Matowitz will not be slow in disclosing this information because it "was reported that the man named in the letter stood high in the city's political circles." Five Afro-American candidates, of 35 examined in the last few weeks, for posts as student nurses at City hospital have qualified in the entrance examinations and are eligible for admittance in the class starting Sept. 15. Those qualified may not be admitted as there is still some question about the number of vacancies "Color-Line" Welfare Director Blossom said, Monday. The examinations had to be opened to our students by city council after a lengthy motion of the subject because of City Mayor Michael Director Blossom's opposition. They had kept our boys and girls only from training at the City hospital for about five years. Blossom added, according to Monday's Plain Dealer, that only three of the five successful competitors probably would report for training. Two, he said, had found it advisable not to join the class "because of personal reasons." Asked what the personal reasons were, Blossom said he didn't know. Funny, isn't it, Blossom didn't know "what he doesn't know" mayaph "The Blossom School" (he callen George, Payne and Buny) think they ought to, don't you think? Especially since they "wakeup" their opposition to the reappointment of Blossom, breaking all their many promises and pledges to their constituents to do to that very thing, but to do everything in their power to assist in ousting him. Ofter an announcement to start with the class of Dealer 15, Blossom said to the Plain Dealer reporter that "the first chance 'Negro' interests will have to enter training at City hospital will come in January, when thirty-five vacancies are available," he said after saying that our girls would be "eligible for admittance in the class starting Sept. 15" (this month). He added, according to the same reporter, that he "was not certain (Monday) that places would be found for the three 'Negroes' who passed the competitive examination", and that "that will depend upon how many vacancies there actually are. Sept 15—whether there are 50 or not". All of which is characteristically "Blossom"—still apparently trying to keep our girls and boys from training in City, where they are growing and promises (ih order to be reappointed) made Rev. H. C. Bailey and "The Blossom Triplets". This ought to, if anything can (and we have our doubts), make George, Payne and Bundy hang their heads in shame. It looks so much as if their ally, Dud Blossom, is double-crossing them in this hospital matter. LORD HAVE MERCY! A local correspondent in explaining Councilman George's election to the leadership of ward 18, on the suggestion of George Skinkle (white), the retiring ward leader who refused re-election, said this action was the result of "George's loyalty to the Hon.

George's alleged loyalty is open to serious question because of his following the erratic Bundy in a number of matters when the latter was opposing the leader of the local Republican organization. This was especially true in the early stages of the Harris-Day contest and remained so until Councilman Payne and George pulled out of the race from Bundy (but Bundy), left the Day camp and "hurdled" into the Harris camp not many weeks ago. The same influence that caused Louis Vinocur, ward 17 leader, to acquiesce in the election of the "bobblegush" (Bundy) to that position, was what secured the leadership in the 18th ward for George. Neither George nor Bundy would have been elected a ward leader but for this same Republican organization influence. Both Skinka in the 18th ward and votes enough in the recent convention to elect them ward leaders but "waived" on the suggestion of the local Republican organization, it is said. By the same token, it was this same influence that kept the erratic Bundy from being elected a member of the County Republican Executive committee. This is the real "low-down" on all of the foregoing. Visit Unknown Soldier.

ANOTHER “BUNDY” FIASCO. From all accounts “the Council- man Bundy victory dinner-dance” so noisily proclaimed in the vicinity of Central Ave. and H. 55th St., for Monday evening, in Elks’ hall, at one dollar per, ‘was a flat failure. Dollars are not numerous, these days, among the boys in the vicinity of the Hotel Majestic and the 17th ward, as well as thruout the city. Along about midnight when it was perfectly clear that the affair was to be a flat failure in point of attend- ance, the doors were thrown wide open and everybody invited to come in gratis, it is said. Still the at- tendance’ was pitifully small. Even his few friends are. beginning to sense the fact that the erratic “bob- blegush” and “Blossom Triplet” Bundy has sure pulled a “bis boner” in opposing the Republican organi- zation which did so much, last fall, to help elect him a member of the city council. ‘A gréat many people do not yet know that Atty. George B. Harris’ majority over Atty. Arthur H. Day in the “colored” wards was 948 in ward 12; 1661 in ward 12, and 152 in ward 19. While Day's’ majority over Harris in ward 17 was only 325, This (ward 17) is the erratic “bobbiegush”, Bundy's habitat, too. ‘And only 346 in ward 18, Council- man Clayborne George's ward.

Blossom, which Alexander H. Mar- tin opposed and “talked to death,” showing such interest in Blossom’s candidacy at that time, for reap- pointment to the office of welfare director, as to amount to disloyalty to at least those of the race in this community. Martin's most _repre- hensible course in that matter so shocked other loyal members of the race in attendance upon the mect- ing, and Mr. Meade, as to cause him to ‘withhold another resolution he had, providing for the endorsement of the Martin candidacy. All of our many readers will read- fly recall the fact, stated so often in these columns since the first of the year, that it was this same man Blossom, who for quite five years denied our boys and girls only the right to train in the City hospital, and is still doing so, contrary to cns- tom, law and about everything else fair and just. For quite five years, Welfare Director Blossom has thus held up our people to ridicule be- fore the eyes of the entire commun- ity, Alexander Martin knew and knows this, and still has the temer- ity to ask our people for their votes to help him be elected a judge of our Common Pleas court!
