The ROUNDER
WHAT'S DOING!
WHAT'S DOING!
Republicans of the 17th ward are organizing a Republican club that is to function fully with the Republicans of the 17th Ward Republican club is not satisfactory, it seems. The same goes for the councilman.
"The Blossom Triplets" (Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy) have been having a series of parties in recent weeks all of which were failures or near-failures. Instead of "socializing," it seems to "the rounder" that they had better be trying to set employment for some of their members, so they are so sorely in need of work in order to provide food and pay house-rent for themselves and their families.
The editor of The Gazette suggests that the Rounder announce that Eugene Cheeks requests "The Old Reliable" (Gazette) to say, this week, that he has not been succeeded as manager of The Call-Post byermond Forster, the head of the paper and manager of the paper. It is said that Forte, who is employed at the city garbage plant, and Bob Reynolds of the street-departement are to be replaced by organization Republicans, soon after election day in November because both of them opposed the organization, in last month. The organization has been done, the first of the year, many of the unemployed regular Republicans are looking forward with the hope that these and other like openings will pave the way to good jobs for them. Let us hope so.
There is a real amusing story going the rounds relative to one of our councilmen, whose "head is swelled" to double its normal size. It seems he went down to the court house recently, and down to the second court of one of four Republican county officials. His talk and manner were both unnecessarily offensive, and his attention was called to the fact by said official. Of course, he didn't get what he "demanded," and that isn't the worst of it—he isn't going to? Yes, he is one of the Blossom "plebs" in all of their constituents in the third and fourth councilman districts will

FOR SIXTY YEARS
A GOOD LAWYER
To practice law for 60 years and remain an optimist is an achievement. That's what John P. Green has done. Beginning his career at the bar in 1870 this young Cleveland attorney still likes to talk matters over with juries. And a surprising proportion of these juries over the years have agreed with what Green told them.
P. B.
The Cleveland of Mr. Green's legal debut had fewer than 100,000 people, and no one dared even dream that the city would some day overtake Cincinnati and become the city with the most pretty closely about the Square and a few miles took one into the country. Without ever becoming a boom town the city Green first knew as a lawyer has multiplied itself by more than nine and finds the youngster still laboring in his chosen field.
A successful attorney and a good citizen. John P. Green may not have another 60 years of service at the Cleveland bar, but it won't be his spirit or his industry that keeps him from it.—Editorial in The Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer, Sept. 20, '30.
The dean of the Cleveland Bar was 86 years old, Sept. 20, '30, and the oldest attorney in the city trying cases before juries. Mr. Sammons, a graduate of English known as "the first citizen of Cleveland," and John D. Rockefeller, Sr., were classmates in Mr. Green's early youth. The ex-state senator is the father of Ohio's "Labor Day," the first Monday in September, each year, and the first such holiday, in any state of this country. He has tried fifty-five murder cases and lost but one, and has been abroad four times, being presented to Pope Plus X, on one of these trips; has written several books and recently finished a 59-book French translation of his favorite French books. Mr. Green has attended church, every Sunday morning, without being late for almost thirty years, and is senior warden of St. Andrew's P. E. church.

Four of Our Girls Enter the Nurse's
Training Hospital

Our student nurses were finally admitted to the Nurses' Training school at City Hospital, and for the first time, last week when a class of forty-one girls began a three-year training period. They are Coral McDonald, 2314 E. 101st St.; Edna K. Woolley, 4915 Portland Ave.; Mary Collins, 8834 Quincy Ave., and Grace Hie, 26 Leroy Ave. was nearly 16 years old, but a bit over several years, which "The Old Reliable" Gazette led, that the City Council passed Dr. Walz's resolution ordering equal opportunities for our people, at City Hospital, as nurses, internes, or student nurses. These four student nurses are our first to take advantage of the opportunity offered. All passed the regular health examination, and presented high school records showing grades averaging 80 per cent or better, according to Mrs. Estella Koch, supervisee of the Student-nurses during their three years' course receive no pay, but each will be given a "pin-money" allowance of $10 a month. The training is free.
BANKER BINGA MISSING!
The Failure of The Binga State Bank Recalls That of The Standard Life Insurance Co. of Atlanta.
Chicago, Ill.—A warrant for the arrest of Jesse Binga, president of the Binga State Bank, which was closed by the state auditor in August, was sworn out here, recently, by Walter Kelly, well-known policy king. The warrant charged larceny by bailee. The swearing out of the
SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS
warrant is due to the uncertain knowledge of Binga's affairs which has prevailed since the closing of the bank. Kelly is reported to have purchased $12,500 worth of stock in a proposed national bank which Binga was organizing last year. This bank has so far failed to materialize. Since the closing of the state bank, some of the purchasers of stock in the national bank have become apprehensive about the money Binga acquired in its stock. Binga's suit was started to find out where his money is and to seek its return, if possible. Officers intrusted with the Binga warrant have so far been forced to list him among the "missing bankers."
STRODE, BLACK AND WHITE ARE ARRESTED!
J. Wilbur Strode, 2187 E. 85th St., assistant secretary and teller of the Empire Savings & Loan Co., E. 55th St. and Central Ave. late Monday, told police that he had embzzed $4,180, since last April, by cashing bad checks for a well-known lottery promoter, according to Deputy Inspector Sweeney. Strode conspired to embzzel him, arrested, police said. It is alleged the teller was paid $25 a week by the lottery promoter under an agreement that he would cash checks until the lottery began making money. Strode received only a small part of the money he is alleged to have embzzel, police said. Rueben Black Bond, of the central Bnd & Mortgage Co. were arrested. Tuesday, in connection with the foregoing, and Wednesday night were trying to arrange for bail in order to regain their liberty. Thursday morning, J. Walter Wills, Sr., who as vice-president succeeded to the presidency of the Empire Savings & Loan Co. on the death, reeled in the bond, Chauney said. Tuesday night, that the $4180 loss was amply covered by bond and that the E. S. & L. Co.'s operation was not affected.

Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor Gazelle, Cleveland O.
Dear Mr. Smith, Certain condition
in the State City Employment
Service at City Hall disturb my
peace of mind, from which I would
not infer justice was being practiced.
Several times when I had ocasion
to go there, we were told to
sit in the rear of the room, whereas
the white persons seeking employment
there had the privilege of sitting toward the front. Councilmen should look into this condition and the aid of the press should be solicited in the riddance of this unfairness in this branch of our city's service. As it is, much prejudice and malice is shown. Our people are offered jobs with weekly pay of only five dollars. One hears this over the phone.
"I cannot get you a white girl for five dollars but I can send you a colored girl."
Yet when $18 a week is offered to either white or colored by the employer, a white girl is sent.
Will you please look into this
book, Mr. Smith? (You bet!
Editor.)
Americans Abroad:
U. S. Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch in his speech, Monday to local Republican prescinct workers, said American capital invested in foreign countries increased from $15,000,000 in 1928 and $26,000,000,000 in 1930 and that American factories in foreign countries increased from 200 in 1928 to 1,200 in 1930. He declared Henry Ford was manufacturing all his tractors in Cork, Ireland, where he employed 30,000 men at a maximum wage of $1 a day, and that tractors thus made in Ireland were being shipped into the United States duty free as agricultural implements. He also cited a large number of plants in foreign countries established by General Motors.

"PAUL ROBESON, THE SOCIAL LION"!
Ellen von Volkenberg Tells of Our Leading Actor and Singer's Wonderful Success on the Stage in London, England.
"Paul Robeson, Afro-American actor and singer, is the social lion of London."
Volkenberg, the Battle Creek girl who made good in the big city of London, sat on the skyscraper-top of the Tavern Club, looking down at the Chicago, where she struggled so long for recognition, and as she looked she talked.
Robinson Social Lion.
"Last spring I produced in London, England—Othoile with Paul Roberson, the Afro-American singer, in the title role, and with Peggy Ashcroft, one of the rarest of British beauties, as Desdemona. Paul captured London—particularly its society. Only last week I had a letter from our (London) office saying that the dean of Canterbury had entertained Paul and his wife—she is an expert chemist, and his business manager—over the week-end and that the dean had almost wept listening to Roberson sing 'Negro' spirituals without accompaniment in the twilight. Paul lives in the suburbs of London. He lives in Wells—all of them entertain Roberson and receive him as a brother artist.
"London's critics praise Robeson highly. His speaking voice is almost as beautiful as his singing. Once I asked him 'Did you always sing?' and he answered, 'No, when I was 12 years old my brothers and sisters told me to keep quiet because you when I sang. My voice was always so loud that you were singing until I learned to hold it in."
Holds Scholastic Honor.
"Robeson had trouble with the whoe third act of 'Otello.' Being very gentle and scholarly—he's a Phi Beta Kappa—he could not at first strike the note of jealous rage that is necessary in this act. Finally I sent the rest of the cast away from the rehearsal room and told him to 'go the limit.' He was superb, such a master of the vocalic volcanic anger. During the run this act was his best—the applause terrific.
"I am returning to London this fall, where I will have charge of the Subscript theater—another 'little theater'—for our corporation. I will produce live plays, and Mr. Ransom will be present at least that many in the Globe theater."—Lloyd Lewis (white) in The Chicago Daily News

ALLIED CLUBS' MEET.
Officers Elected—Resolutions Adopted—To Meet in Akron, Next Year—Another "Jim-Crow" School.
Columbus, O.—The State Allied Afro-American Republican clubs' representatives met here, Sunday, in the "Y," and elected the following officers: Mrs. Lethia C. Fleming of Cleveland (re-elected) pres.; Dr. C. E. Lewis of Akron and Capt. Leroy H. Godman, vice-pres.; Mr. Harry Alexander, sec., and Mrs. F. H. Butler, treas. Nearly forty delegates were in attendance and adopted a strong set of resolutions endorsing state and local Republican tickets, defenses, by military and segregation, and advocating equal opportunities and privileges. Next annual meeting, at Akron, June 3, 21—The local school board gave our people a disagreeable surprise when schools re-opened, last month, by adding a second "jim-crow" school. The first one was the Champion Ave. school. The latest one, the Mt. Vernon Ave. (23d St.) school, is the second insult. The board at a recent secret meeting made a shoe-string district for this school includes, much of ouridential schools, and most of our people have organized to fight the disgraceful segregation, with Rev. J. S. Jackson, former Cleveland and Cincinnati A. M. E. pastor, as their leader.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1930.
Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee (Ala.) Normal and Industrial institute, said recently in an address at Waveland, Miss., that the future outlook of the race is good. When one considers the way our people are going, in about everything, and at what rate they are speeding on their way, he cannot help feeling that the doctor is wearing some mighty strong optimistic glasses, these days, when he looks into the future of his race.
George Davis (white), dramatic critic of The Cleveland Daily Press, in his review of "Scarlet Sister Mary" at a local theater, this week, and starring Ethel Barrymore, possibly the leading American actress, a play about "Gullah" Negroes of South Carolina, among other things says:
"A company of blacked up Caucasians appearing as Negroes can't stand comparison with a company of well-directed Negro actors such as those in 'Porgy' or in 'Hallelu-jah'."
---
The failure of Jesse Binga's State bank in Chicago, some weeks ago, and the subsequent events in connection therewith remind one greatly of the failure, several years ago, of the Standard Life Insurance Co. of Atlanta. Both the bank and the insurance company were looked upon as possibly our leading successes of their time and were pointed to as such frequently by many of our people. Their distressing failures are all but heart-rending from a racial business-viewpoint. It seems that too many of our so-called leading men will not permit their successful business enterprises to exist for very long.
Ella von Volkenberg, (white), the Michigan girl who has had such wonderful stage success in London, tells us that:
"Paul Robeson lives in the suburbs of London, England, close beside John Galsworthy, Shaw and Wells, (great English writers who are known throutout the world), all of whom entertain Robeson and his wife, and receive him as a brother artist."
What a sermon in a sentence to the great American people many of whom are warped and narrowed to an extraordinary degree by an absolutely inexecutable racial prejudice which all but surpasses that of any other country on the face of the globe. Every American home ought to have in it the portion of Lloyd Lewis' interview with Miss, von Volkenberg, published elsewhere in this paper. It ought to prove a most effective leven.
Charles W. Mitchell, for many years business manager of W. Va. State College at Institute, was app pointed minister to Liberia, Africa last week, by President Herbert Hoover. "Brother" Mitchell sure has his courage with him, since so many U. S. ministers to that country have died of African fever. His immediate predecessor, Atty. Wm. T. Francis of St. Paul, Minn., "passed away" that way, early this year. President Hoover will have to do something in the way of recognition, better than this, for our people. The pay of the U. S. minister to Liberia is only $5000 a year, the lowest salary of any diplomatic representative in the service of this country. The President and Secretary-of-State Henry L. Stimson are urging the passage of a bill by the Congress to increase the pay to $10,000 a year.
In a recent release of "The Negro Labor-News Service," N. Y. City, Frank R. Crosswaith, usually a very interesting and fairly reliable writer, makes the following most unfortunate statement:
"A northern Negro looks down with scorn and contempt upon a southern Negro, and both the northern and southern Negro look with
when eyes tall of hate and suspicion upon a brother from the West Indies or other part of the world."
The foregoing may be true in New York City, but it is not generally true, and this fact is generally known and recognized. We are greatly surprised, that even if he that what he has written, that he would undertake to give general circulation to a statement that would have a tendency to make bad matters worse, if they were as he claims in his misstatement. Stop it, Mr. Crosswaith!
WHICH IS THE PREVARICATOR?
At a meeting of the East End Republican club, last week Tuesday evening, Charles White in addressing the organization made the misstatement that The Gazette's recent article on Alex. H. Martin's disloyal course (to the race) in a meeting of that organization, some months ago, when Mr. Emmett Meade introduced a resolution placing it squarely in favor of the ousting of the then Color-line Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom, was not true. The morning after the meeting Mr. Meade told the editor of The Gazette, in its office, that Martin's talk had caused the defeat of his resolution and that he (Martin) had "talked it to death." Now comes Charles White, many months afterward, to flatly contradict Mr. Meade. Since only one of them can be correct, the question is, which one is telling the truth? We believe Mr. Meade, an old resident of Cleveland, successful business man and an aggressively loyal member of the race whose reputation for truthfulness has never been questioned. Mr. White, a young man, practically a newcomer to Cleveland, should be more careful in contradicting a person of Mr. Meade's standing in this community. In our judgment Martin was and is guilty, and as we have said several times in recent months, has forfeited any right to the support of our loyal people of this community by the disloyal act in question. The result of his candidacy, this fall, for a position on the common pleas bench will prove this, too.
GETTING IRRITATING.
Col. Leonard P. Ayers, a vice-president of the Cleveland Trust Co. and nationally known business statistician, had another of his many predictions in Thursday morning's local daily papers. There is one thing we have to give the Colonel credit for, and that is, he has been consistent in these predictions of an early revival of business for nearly five years. Now, he tells us that "1931 will be a year of progressive business recovering." Heretofore, the revival of business, all sought and still seek, was either "just around the corner" or very near, the Colonel would say, among many other things of an encouraging nature. The trouble is that during this period, the past five years, we have looked and waited more or less patiently for said revival of business, but in vain. Neither the "Coolidge Good Times" nor the "Hoover Prosperity" have materialized as yet, and the outlook is anything but encouraging, to say the least. We are not finding fault with the Colonel for saying encouraging things, even if they didn't come true, but just the same the continued reiteration of his prediction of an early revival of business is becoming just a little irritating.

UNFAIR AND UNJUST.
Editor, Cleveland Daily News:—A person reading the report of the committee of the Cleveland Bar association on judicial candidates cannot but be impressed that so far as Judge John A. Cline is concerned that the report is most unfair and unjust. I happened to be in public office when Judge Cline was prosecuting attorney of the county and never said that of course he conducted a greater ability and wisdom. When he took up private practice he soon made his mark as one of the leading lawyers at the bar. His election as president of the State Bar association was a public recognition of his eminent standing in his profession. His honesty, ability, his courage have never been questioned. It does not lie in the province of any set of people to try to proforce the public against a man of his character and fitness.

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 laws. 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.

Bayonets Halt Lynching Mob.
Huntsville, Ala.-National guardsmen attacked a crowd around the Madison County jail here, Monday night, with tear gas bombs, dispersing it. The guardsmen advanced against the crowd with drawn bayonets when the group attempted to advance on the jail where G. E. Henderson is being held in connection with the slaying, Saturday night, of H. E. Ross, Huntsville's business man. Some 500 persons remained at the jail but no violence was anticipated.

Our mo-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 "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "secessary injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as per manently 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 from the county, which the assault is made (93 v. 161).
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 exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in persecution, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars (93 v. 12 5.)
Section 6282.

If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovering of such person so lynched, or 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 a mob (93 v. 162 6.)
Section 6284. Action for the recoveries 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 the costs of action, in such success, upon the county, shall be a part of the judgment in such such case. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer the probate judge, following the judgment than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9. 1)
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 killed or of the person composing the mob from any of the persons composing the 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 captures a prisoner into another county, or commits an other county to commit violence on a prisoner 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 dispurse such mob. (93 v. 162 10.)
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 enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
Code of Ohio:
Sec. 1294. Whoever, being the proprietor or his executor, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant or eating house, barber-shop, public vengeance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities, beified not less than fifty dollars more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 1294. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per-gerated thereby to be recovered a duty of impetent 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.

Paris, France.—The Jewish Telegraphic Agency reports the center of the Paris Jewish quarter, the Carreau du Temple, was the scene, Tuesday, of an anti-Semitic incident. Six members of the royalist league "Camelots du Roy" ran through the streets shouting "down with the Jews." During the fastcuff that followed one of the Royalists was knocked down and the others fled.

YOU KNOW ME, AL
Dear Kid,
Lsce an article in the papers where
you are cleaning them up in the sticks but
1 guess I would go big in those bush leagues
too because maybe you read where when
they get a run off me now somebody thinks
it's Christmas. Bush started me against
'Broolilyn the other day and when they
looked at my fact one, I thought several of
fhe including this here Statz was going
to take sick. If they didn’t have their
hats on tight my fast one blew them
off, and I was talking to Donie about get-
ting some catcher who ean hold me s0 1
won't have to ease up. Most of these
Robins should ought to wear a rubber on
their left foot when batting against me
because my fast one makes them step back
and keep one foot in the water pail most|
of the time.
