NAMED'FIELD OFFICERS
"To Work Among Their Own People" Only—More Segregation and "Jim Crow" From the Governor.
Columbus, O., Oct. 13. —The appointment of Emmett L. Phillips of this city, and Sam V. Perry of Cleveland as field officers in the "jim-crow" bureau of the division of probation and paroles, "to have charge of Negro prisoners in northeastern Ohio," were announced, last week Monday, by the State Board of Welfare. This is Gov. Myers Y. Cooper's way of giving recognition to our veterans our feud job-holders in this "jim-crow" bureau to "working among their own people" only. Never before in the history of Ohio has such a rank insult been given to Ohio Afro-Americans. And, too, by a so-called Republican Governor who is a candidate for re-election at this time. During the two years he has been Ohio's chief executive he has not appointed a single member of the race to a position worthy of mention. All he has given us has been the few in his specially organized "jim-crow" bureau or military cannons or day-laborers. And he terms this recognition for the nearly two-hundred thousand Afro-American Republicans of this state! LORD, HAVE MERCY!

Columbus, O.—At the recent state Republican convention here, Sherman Eagle of Gallipolis set off an oratorical Roman candle when he declared that the dedication of the Harding memorial, at Marion, had been unnecessarily delayed, that President Coolidge had declined to make the dedication speech and that so far all efforts to induce President Hoover to come to Marion had proved unavailing.

MISS MILDRED C. RIDLEY
Our Most Recent Appointment, Recognition Given By the Local Republican Organization.
Miss Ridley, E. 83rd St., was appointed, last week Saturday, information clerk in the office of the board of county commissioners, having passed a civil service examination months, standing second on the list. She has been employed as a stenographer since last March in the commissioner's office, on a temporary appointment. Credit for the appointment is due the Hon. Maurice Maschke, Atty. Alex Bernstein, Commissioners Cook, Harris and Zmunt and the editor of "The Old Reliable." Miss Ridley, secretary of our Business Girls' club and of the Young Women's Civic club, was for several years stenographer in The Gazette office, the first beginning prior to her graduation from Longwood high school. She has a pleasing personality, is thorily competent and has "made good" in the commissioners' office, say Messrs. Zmunt, Harris and Cook.

home at its close. Mr. Dray served as an assistant law director of Cleveland after his return, and was later elected to the Ohio Senate, being reelected in 1924, serving four years. His legal experience covers sixteen years of successful practice. He has a wife and two daughters. Mr. Day, a sterling friend of the race, has been active in Republican politics and has served for his excellent record and achievements in public life. The following is from an editorial in The Cleveland Daily News of Oct. 14, '39:
"Arthur H. Day presents the certain prospect of an absolute contrast to Ray T. Miller. As strikingly evidenced in the primary campaign, Mr. Day is independent of machine politics. He approaches the office obligated to the public alone. That cannot be said for Mr. Miller. Arthur H. Day is a trial lawyer of long experience and proven ability. Mr. Miller's prosecutorship has been notable for his deliberate absence from the courtroom. Arthur H. Day by his elections to and service in the state senate has demonstrated his fitness for the trust. He should by all means be chosen over Ray T. Miller."

New York City.—"One lynching in Mississippi stirs more unrest among Negroes than all the Communist propaganda which can be spread in a year," declared Walter White, acting secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., testifying recently before the Fish Congress committee investigating Communist activities in this country. "The greatest pro-Communist influence among Negroes in the United States is both blacker, the Ku Klux Klan, the Black Shirt, the Caucasian Crusader and others who indulge in lynching, disfranchisement, segregation and denial of economic and industrial opportunity.
Need Anti-Lynching Law.
"The thing that can best stop the spread of Communist propaganda among Negroes in this country, in my opinion, is drastic action by the U. S. government and its citizens, to put an end to lynching, segregation, distranchise, and other forms of brutal bigotry constantly inflicted upon African Americans loyal colored citizens. If the U. S. government would spend against lynching only as much as this congressional committee costs, that would be at least an earnest that the administration and the national government do have some concern for the lives and property of its eleven million Negro citizens.
Lynchers Not Punished.
"The way to open the minds of Afro-Americans to propaganda from abroad is to convince them that they have no stake in their own land, that they have no voice in the state Gov. Billo of Mississippi or Senator Cole Blease or Thomas Heilin are bound to respect, that the known and identified lynchers of two colored boys in Marion, Indiana, can and do laugh at prosecution and the machinery of the law. This association has supplied the Marion authorities the names of twenty-seven of the lynchers. Not one indictment has, after eight weeks, been handed down. The special representative of the Indiana attorney-general has expressed to us the hopelessness, despite the Russia, of any lynch being punished.
How Law Acts.

VOTE FOR
Atty. Frank G. Carpenter for Judge of Common Pleas Court.
Atty. Frank G. Carpenter was triumphantly nominated at the primaries, Aug. 12, for common pleas judge of Cuyahoga county for the term ending Dec. 31, 1936, by the large vote of 28,000.
The last Legislature provided for three additional common pleas judges for Cuyahoga County. The three new judges will be elected for six year terms ending December 31, 1936, together with four present judges, who are up for re-election, which means for that term, seven judges are to be elected in November. The judicial ballot at the November election will be non-partisan. None of the Judicial candidates will be under any party designation.
At the coming election, Atty. Carpenter will try to win one of the three new judgements, and the fact that he polled so many votes at the primaries, augurs well for a victory this fall, together with the fact that he will not have to defeat some one who is already occupying the common pleas bench.
Mr. Carpenter is a man of wide legal experience, having been in the general practice of law for nearly 29 years. He was elected on the Republican ticket and served two terms, four years, as county prosecuting attorney of his native county, and at the present time is law director of Garfield Heights. He has had a great deal of experience in the trial of cases and as counselor; his honesty and integrity unquestioned, and his background combined with his natural ability and splendid judicial temperament, gives him the proper viewpoint to make the right sort of a judge. The editor of The Gazette has known Atty.

How can Negroes in America, denied the equality guaranteed them by the Constitution, fall to think when they learn that the Soviet government officially protects their rights in Russia against prejudiced white Americans? "I S. Can't Go On Lynching. " "Our very freedom from any official or other relation with Communism, Russian or American, and from the Republican, Democratic or Socialist political affiliations, leaves us free to warn America that it must not expect to go on ill-treatment, lynching, disfranchising and discriminating against its colored citizens, without having those colored citizens do some thinking. And the Communists are ready to utilize that thinking to their own advantage. It would be appropriate to hope that whether or not they will drive loyal, law-abiding and patriotic colored citizens into the arms of Communism and toward left-wing political and social thinking."

Mr. White, for the N. A. A. C. P., presented to the Fish Committee a list of all contributors of $50 or more to the work of the Association during the years 1929 and 1930. He also laid before the committee extensive figures showing the discrimination practiced in southern states in the allocation of education funds. In addition, from an article by Fred S.

McCULLOCH-BULKLEY.
Robert J. Bulkley, Democratic nominee for U. S. senator, if elected this fall will align himself in the Senate with southern Democrats and inevitably will assist in the legislation detrimental to the race, Maurice Maschke, Republican county leader, said, last week, Thursday night, in opening the Republican campaign in defense of Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch in the third and fourth councilmanic districts. Maschke spoke at a small meeting of the U. N. I. A. at 5300 Woodland Ave. The speech of the local Republican leader indicated the nature of the campaign to be waged by the organization among Afro-American voters in an effort to hold them in line for McCulloch. The N. A. A. C. P. and several of our local leaders declared in support of McCulloch and for Bulkley. This action came as a result of Senator McCulloch's vote to seat Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina on the U. S. Supreme Court, on appointment of President Hoover. Maschke charged that Bulkley had been evasive in his reply to the questionnaire mailed him by the N. A. A. C. P. and said that while in the lower house of Congress Bulkley had voted for the Underwood Bulkley bill, "framed by Oscar Underwood, a southern Democrat." Due to a mixup in speaking arrangements, Maschke addressed only a small crowd. A few blocks down Woodland Ave. the 1,000 persons attended a meeting in Councilman Herman Finkle's headquarters over the Fountain Theater and heard Republican county and legislative candidates.

The statement, last week, in our local contemporary to the effect that the priest in charge of St. Edward's church and parish, in Woodland Ave. opposite Woodland cemetery, had made a statement showing prejudice against our people, or in any way reflecting upon them, is a mistake! He couldn't do such a thing, and wouldn't if he could. A man of his profession, intelligence and experience, in this section of the country, would not be guilty of making such a mistake, especially a priest of the great Catholic church.
J. W. Wills, Sr., president, and Wm. R. Conners, sec., Welfare league, E. 40th St., this city, a director, of the Empire Savings & Loan Co., called on The Gazette, Monday afternoon, and urged the editor to extend for one week the time limit (Tuesday), noted in the editorial, "Be Loyal and Sensible," published in The Gazette, last week, and republished in this paper. This we readily and willingly did with a sincere hope that our suggestion and earnest recommendation in the editorial be accepted by twenty-four (or more) of our leading, loyal business men so at least five thousand dollars would be raised immediately to be deposited in the company at once to help restore full confidence in that our leading local business enterprise, and the outlook is that this will be done. Stand by the Empire Savings & Loan Co., everybody. Let everyone who can possibly arrange to do so, go to Tried Stone Baptist church, Monday evening, and hear what President Wills, other officers and stockholders of the company have to say. There is no cause for alarm of any kind for the very good reason given in the editorial referred to. Among other speakers at the meeting, Monday evening, will be the editor of The Gazette.
Last Saturday, about 9 p. m., two of our young men went to a stand in the Woodland-E. 55th Market and after giving a small order one of them handed a five dollar bill and asked for as much small change in return as he could get. When he was given this, included in which were some pennies, his companion cursed the man waiting on them, using most abusive language, foul oaths. The result was a fight during which the foul-mouthed individual escaped and the one asking the change, innocent of any wrong-doing, was very badly beaten by the police. It is just such miserable experiences as this which hurt our people and make them unwelcome in many public places. Thus the great majority of us are made to suffer insults and mistreatment in public places because of the misconduct and worse of the few. There is no place in the city of Cleveland where our people are treated better than at the Woodland-E. 55th St. market, and there is no stand in that market at which we are treated better than at Mueller's restaurant. He and his assistants are always most courteous as all of our people who patronize his stand freely acknowledge. Therefore, it was little short of an outrage of decency and good treatment for the affair referred to in the foregoing to have been precipitated at the Mueller stand. It is to be sincerely hoped that the offending individual is apprehended by the police and severely punished.
BE LOYAL AND SENSIBLE.
The Empire Savings & Loan Co. held an openmeeting at St. Paul Zion A. M. E. church, Monday evening, with a view to increasing confidence in the stability of the organization. The company's recent cash
loss of $4180, because of the unfaithfulness of one of its employees, is fully covered by bond, its officials announce, and that ought to satisfy its stockholders, patrons and the general public, especially that part of it made up by our people. The surest way in the world to cripple, if not destroy, the company, is for those who have invested in it, or have funds on deposit with it, to sell their interest or withdraw their money now, because that would result in a "run" on that business enterprise that would break the average local bank, these days. Don't get scared! Don't get "cold feet!" There is no good reason for it, as the Empire Savings and Loan Co. will go right on living, and living well, unless our people rush in now and wreck it, and that would hurt all of us in this community by destroying the confidence of the other group, as well as many of our own, in our ability to successfully do business of almost any kind. Don't be foolish! Stand by the Empire Savings and Loan Co., now, if ever! There is only one thing to fear and that is the "brother" or "sister" with "cold feet."
To show everybody in the community our confidence in that business enterprise, let us do something material, at once—the thing that will restore confidence and help when it is most needed! What twenty-four persons will join the editor of The Gazette in depositing $100 or $200 cash, each, in the Empire Savings & Loan Co., Tuesday, as "an earnest of good will"? Come on now, you "leading local Negroes of Cleveland!" What say you?
ALL MUST VOTE FOR JERRY
Jerry R. Zmunt, the ablest County Commissioner Cuyahoga County has ever had, is seeking re-election on his record in public office, particularly his achievements in the office of County Commissioner where he has served so exceptionally well for nine years. He has full knowledge of the county's requirements, the complicated legislative procedure, financing and budget methods.
As an active representative of the people, Jerry Zmunt has been primarily responsible for developing progressive, efficient and impartial policies in the conduct of county affairs. The latter is proved by his stand, several months ago, against the annexation of a section of Miles
PETER H. HARRIS
Heights to the City of Cleveland which would have left our people out there alone.
His appreciation of human values and understanding of the county's health and welfare problems, together with his intimate knowledge of the laws, governing the operation and management of the many welfare activities under control of the County Commissioners, makes him an invaluable public servant, and this alone should be sufficient to guarantee his triumphant re-election, Nov. 4, '30.
In addition to this, Jerry Zmunt has always been a sterling friend of our people, and pledges himself to continue impartial, honest, fearless and efficient management of the business of Cuyahoga County, as a member of the Board of County Commissioners.
Vote for Jerry R. Zmunt, our friend!
SHERIFF IS ACCUSED
OF NEGLECT OF DUTY
IN INDIANA LYNCHING.
Marion, Ind., Oct. 15. — Jacob Campbell, sheriff of Grant County and also county Republican chairman, tonight was charged with neglect of official duty in connection with the lynching by a mob of two Afro-American youths in the Public Square here the night of Aug. 7. Seven other men were charged with participation in the lynching. Affidavits were filed here this afternoon by James M. Ogden, attorney general of Indiana, who explained that a seldom used law, authorized by a seldom used law, became Grant County grand jury, after an investigation, failed to indict anyone and instead officially exonerated Campbell. The two youths were alleged to have confessed they had murdered a Grant County young man and attacked his girl escort when they held them up Aug. 6. Sheriff Campbell has surrendered to Coroner O. L. Stout and says as soon as the amount of bond required of him is set, he will post it and be prepared to serve the warrants on the gave alleged inmate in the name of the inmate in the affidavit. If convicted, Campbell will be removed from office and fined. Ogden may ask for a change of venue from Grant County, a strong Klu Klux Klan area.

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:
the General Code of Ohio:
Sec. 1240. Whoever, being the proprietor or employee, keeper or manager of an animal or restaurant eating house, barber-shop, public enveveryance 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 nationality, will enjoyment of the accommodations, amenages, facilities or privileges they grant, notified 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 patenting section shall also pay not less than five dollars nor more than five hundred dollars for a person aggrieved thereby to be reposed 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.

After the game, it leaked out that the fair-skinned John Mayberry, who not only piloted his team as quarter-back but furnished many of the thrills of the game by his spectacular playing, was an "Afo." Mayberry spent the night previous to the game in the Knights of Columbus club here, from which Quallo was barred, and enjoyed a hearty meal at its restaurant.

The U. S. Supreme court did not, as announced last week in the local daily papers, take any action, Monday, on Thos. W.

Miller of the county's appeal, possibly because his motion was not filed until last week. The court may hand down, next week, its decision as to granting Fleming's appeal.

Last week Thursday, "Hoover day" in Cleveland, "a bunch of (Communist) paraders started to run up E. 12th St. and I sent some of my motorcycle men to order them to turn around." Capt. Savage said. "The next thing I knew I heard windows crashing and I saw a colored fellow with his mouth bleeding who had been arrested." Of all the scores of Communists who rise cain, the last week Thursday, the Colored (Communist) was the only one to get hurt (and he got it in the mouth.) As usual. Too bad!
Last week, Monday, in Judge Lee E. Skeel's municipal court, Albert J. Maxwell, 6504 Woodland Ave., was awarded judgment for $400 for injuries received at the hands of a mob while working, Feb. 19, 1930, in Hinsman Supply Co. in an apartment house located at E. 75th and Houghton Ave. Maxwell was represented by Atty. Chester K. Gillespie, and the case was prosecuted under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching law. Atty. Gillespie says: "Judge Skel deserves a great deal of respect and courage to enforce the law which was enacted many years ago as a result of your (the editor's) far-sightedness and industry."
In a letter to the editor of The Gazette, the Hon. Harry E. Davis, chairman of the executive committee of the Cleveland arrangements committee for the annual meeting of "The Association for the Study of Afro-American Life & History," which is to be held here from Oct. 26 to 30, writes that the local committee "has arranged a program of meetings and entertainment consistent with the dignity and importance of our organization to whom we host, hosts, of course, have involved a financial obligation which has been kept down to the minimum. We (the committee) are now urging that all contributions be sent in at once to enable us to take care of all commitments before the conference convenes."
One of our local professional men has sent The Gazette the following with the request that it be published: "Unions are an illegal combination in violation of the antitrust laws. They are organized to prevent competition. By force, threats and intimidation they often prevent citizens and workers from enjoying their rights as citizens. The employees of the local hotels should apply for an injunction against union injunction. To change workers' now would be an act of assault against law-abiding citizens for another group, mostly illegal, irresponsible, law-defying, many unnaturalized people. Should any of the hotel-workers lose their jobs now because of the unions, the worker could-sue the union for his wages for an average lifetime.—X. Y. Z."
Insist on your friends going to the Woodland-E. 55th St. market. It is convenient, has everything you want and at the most reasonable prices. Hundreds of our people patronize this market but many more should do so, because it is the best in the town. We welcome the restaurant-bank just inside of the Ave. entrance of the market, serves you the best food, gives you the best service and most courteous treatment to be found anywhere in this city. Try his boneless blue pike, his tender and toothsome roast-beef just one time and you will agree with us. Several weeks ago, we called attention to the fact that the chef was a man who joked, but meant just exactly what he said. Go in and see for yourself if what we have said, in the foregoing, is not "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."
If the daily newspaper announcement, reproduced elsewhere in this paper, of the appointment of Sam V. Perry by Gov. Myers Y. Cooper, of the state department of Hal H.

Green, was shot to the community, he was big and healthy, he had suffered from high blood-pressure and indigestion, for several years. He dropped dead in the morning as he was about to leave home at 10809 Earle Ave. Heart attack. Wm. R. Green was born in Cleveland, in 1872, and would have been 58 years of age had he lived until the tenth of next month. He was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, studied law in his father's office, being admitted to the bar, 36 years ago. He was a captain in the O. N. G. for twelve years before the World War and was in Virginia, on the coast enroute to France, when relieved of service and returned home because of physical disability. Atty. Green was a member of the Early Settlers Association of Catholic Association, N. A. A. C. P. and St. Aloyssius Catholic church where Tuesday morning, the priest in charge officiating. It was largely attended and in charge of Slaughter Bros., undertakers.

& UNDERWEAR
IN CITING the increasing importance of the felt hat, it is necessary to prefix the word felt with such explanatory adjective as "different," "novel," "unusual," or "out-of-the-ordinary." For that is exactly what the new felts are. The whole program of felts is one of refreshing novelty not only in the versatility of the felts themselves which include every type from bodies to felt ribbon, felt stripping or fine felt braid which is worked or woven like straw, but the originality with which these various felt media are manipulated creates an entirely new impression.
That the milliner has succeeded in incorporating that greatly coveted quality, "youth" in the new models adds greatly to the prestige of the 1930-31 felts.
The felts pictured are a representative group sponsored by American military fashioned authorities. The first
DRESS WITH A CON
PROVES A MO
ONE of the most alluring themes which has to do with costume design for the season 1930-1931 is that of the dress with a contrasting yoke. In the idea not only is unusual appeal made to creative genius to whom it opens an avenue of infinite possibilities, but of all types there is none more flattering to its wearer than the dress topped with a different yoke. Not only does this flair for contrast manifest itself in daytime frocks but its influence extends to most formal evening modes. Since the glittering note is so necessary this season to formality in dress, many a velvet, satin, crepe or chiffon dress glories in a flattering transparent yoke resplendently worked with sparkling beads or sequins. Perhaps the yoke is of exquisite lace. Indeed some of the lace yokes are that deep they extend almost to the waistline outlining as they

model shown is the very essence of youth. In Paris they are making much of this style which sets way back on the head, and which, incidentally, is increasing the hairdresser's income materially since a perfect coiffure is essential to complete the picture. It is made of an exquisite body of light-weight soilel with a two-tone chenille trim.
At the top to the right is one of those clever affairs conjured of wide felt ribbon, a medium widely employed this season.
An adorable little model is centered to the left. It is designed in supple marble green felt, achieving in its deft draping a qualitn bonet effect. A cluster of tiny ostrich tips are stationed at the back, which goes to show how cleverly milliners are positioning bright feather novelties this season.
It is a case of "love at first sight" for the stunning beret to the right whose intricate seaming and classic drape gives it distinction.
The group concludes with a Paton model. It is a small felt bleezer caught across the back with a tailored stitched band of self felt which is attached with bristles. (BUTTONLEY. ©1920 Western Newspaper Union.)

The smart black crepe chiffon afternoon dress in the picture is styled with a yoke and half sleeves of white crepe chiffon. The lower part of the skirt falls in graceful folds and is embroidered in silver. Too much emphasis cannot be placed on the importance of black-and-white both in day and night fashions.
A strictly up-to-the-mode dinner gown designed for the social season responds to the call for black-and-white at the same time that it high-spots a contrasting yoke, in that its lower portion of softly draped black transparent velvet is topped with an almost-to-the-waistline yoke of ivory white velvet. Elaborately designed black-and-white jewelry accents the ensemble theme for this costume.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC "LIFE SAVING FENDER"
MIDE WORLD PRESS
A pedestrian is shown a fraction of a second after he had been struck by an automobile traveling at the rate of 20 miles per hour. That he escaped injury is due to the semi-automatic "life-saving fender" with which the car is equipped. J. A. Schoutz demonstrated the device to a group of automotive engineers. The mechanism is released by the driver by means of a pedal projecting from the floor board.
OIL GAUGE WILL PREVENT INJURY
Only Indicator Driver Has to Tell if Something Is Wrong.
The oil gauge is one of the most important instruments on an automobile. The presence of the oil gauge on an instrument board, plus the driver's understanding of it, can prevent damage to the car. The oil gauge, an engineering bulletin says, is the only indicator the driver has to tell if something goes wrong with the oil supply. If the oil does not circulate, or if there is no oil, the gauge will register zero. Time to Drive Carefully. Starting with a cold engine the oil is heavy, and although the gauge indicates a high pressure, very little oil flows through the bearings to be sprayed on the cylinder walls. That is the time to drive carefully and at a moderate speed and not abuse the engine. As the engine warms up a reduction in oil pressure will be noticed as the oil flows freely through the bearings and the operating parts are properly lubricated.
Every type engine has its own average operating pressure, which the motorist should learn from his instruction manual. Any change from this pressure, except higher pressure when the engine is cold, should be investigated at once. Extreme low pressure reading might indicate loose bearings, loose connections in oil line, lack of oil, or oil thinned by dilution.
Function of Oil Gauge.
The function of the oil gauge is to tell if the engine's oiling system is working. It does not, of course, indicate the quantity of oil in the crankcase or condition of the oil filter, the latter a device through which the oil is filtered and kept clean and which should be periodically serviced.
Engineers Study Wind
Automotive engineers are now turning their attention to wind resistance as traffic is being speeded up throughout the country, according to the Hoosier Motor club.
The motoring body pointed out that improvement on highways has largely overcome the road and rolling resistance, and with liberalized speed laws, wind resistance has become a factor in maintaining the speed of the car.
"While perfect streamlining is the ideal method of overcoming this resistance," says the statement, "and has been used with telling effect on cars entered for speed records, such a step for passenger cars in impractical due to larger bodies and the acute traffic conditions. The tendency today is toward smaller bodies.
"As an alternative step, however, engineers are considering partial streamlining and modification of the present lines of the car with promise of a considerable reduction of wind resistance."
Check All Repair Jobs
Whenever the car has been to a repair shop, it is well to check it over carefully to make sure that no accidental damage has been done. In working on the motor one mechanic accidentally struck the radiator overflow pipe, pinching it, but forgot to straighten it out before delivering the car.
Carburetors that have been removed are apt to pick up dirt from the work bench. A little carbon clogged in one of the vents will cause some very perplexing trouble.
It is not uncommon for mechanics to leave tools around the engine. This may result in serious trouble. In one case a large wrench jammed in such a way that the accelerator could not be pressed all the way down when the driver needed power.
A small wrench left to rattle around the top of the battery may cause a short circuit accompanied by stalling at some moment when power may be badly needed.
Federal Road Aid Plan
Communication of the federal government's apportionment just made of the 1932 federal aid highway funds, totaling $121,000,000, was voiced at Los Angeles by officials of the Federal Motor club through Arthur Goulson, its general manager.
"Any move on the part of the federal or state governments to speed up highway construction will meet with the whole-hearted approval of the motorists of the country." Goulson said. "The apportionment at this time of the funds available July 1, 1931, makes it possible for the states to anticipate their resources, thus serving the two-fold purpose of speeding highway construction, which is greatly needed, and also relieving unemployment.
"As a result of increased federal aid, the years of 1930-31 will mark the peak of highway construction in the United States. The total to be spent by the federal, state and county highway departments in these two years will aggregate $3,500,000,000. Total appropriations for the current year are $1,726,167,000, or an average of $66.35 for each automobile registered in the United States."
Handy Arrangement of
Unmatched Garage Doors
It is customary to make the doors of equal width on the ordinary 12 by 18-foot home garage. With doors of this width it is necessary to open first one door and then go back and open the other one. If one door is made extra wide and the other narrow, as shown in the illustration, time is saved
With Garage Doors of Unequal Width, as Shown, the Opening and Closing of Them in High Wind by One Person Is Simple.
because the narrow door can be pushed all the way open even in a strong wind, while a hold is still retained on the other.
An equal amount of time can be saved in closing the doors. Simply walk in with the wide door till you reach a point where the edge of the short door may be grasped and then continue in with both doors—Popular Science Monthly.
AUTOMOBILE FACTS
Check air pressure in tires weekly.
If aviation keeps on it will be as dangerous as motoring.
Southeastern states are spending $170,000,000 this year for highway improvements and maintenance.
If the seat is adjustable as to back angle as well as in relation to the clutch and brake pedals, the car owner should be certain that the adjustment suits him.
When giving attention to the tires, do not forget the spare. Keep it inflated to the proper pressure, see that it also has a dust cap. A tire cover is to be recommended strongly.
Do not park on curves, crests of hills and road intersections. Always leave the maximum amount of space for other vehicles to pass when stopping temporarily or parking.
That wheel "wobble" inherit in the design of the car shows up mostly at higher speeds. If the wheels shake at lower rates it probably is due to looseness or wear rather than design.

WHAT'S DOING!
Councilman Clayborne George said in his speech, in a house-political meeting held at Mrs. Lilly Mason's, last week Thursday evening, that he was NOT going to vote for Senator Roscoe C: McCulloch, and then talked against scratching the Republican ticket. Inconsistent as usual! This is the third or fourth "break," in as many months, in The Blossom Triplets. The other changed their stand against the Senate during the weeks, decharing for him; rather family, it is true. Councilman Payne only murmured his, while Councilman Bundy seems to have lost his voice and activity in the last four or five weeks. Poor "Blossom Triplets!"
It is said that Allen H. Dorsey has established a "Bulkley" headquarters at S704 Cedar Ave., in which Rev. D. O. Walker is blowing Democratic "bubbles." "Politics make strange bed fellows," because up-to-date these two gentlemen have never agreed politically, it seems. Walker is quietly supporting John Sulzman, and other Democratic candidates, and said that number of our local citizens have as yet been able to have a conference with Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch and that the Hon. Harry E. Davis and Attty. Wm. R. Green sought one in vain, early last week. Many of St. James A. M. E. church's members are not impressed with Bulkley because he put on squarely the questions put to him about the rights of our people but evaded, dodged or gave ambiguous answers to most of them.
A COUNT LOVES HER:
Daughter of Mrs. Mollie Church Terrell—Met Her Abroad—The Count a Stowaway on a French Liner Arrives to See His "Flinacee."
Washington, D. C. — Count Rudolph de Kulapanek Klaudenstein arrived in N. Y. City, recently, as a stowaway on the "De Grass" to see his alleged "flancee," Phyllis Terrell Goines, adopted daughter of Judge Terrell's widow, and school teacher. While held at Ellis Island, the Count told of having met in Paris, this summer, the young lady who is the estranged wife of a Presidential hospital interne, when she visited Eleanor with her foster mother, and to have become mildly infatuated with her the he knew of her racial identity. Mrs. Terrell says: "I am well acquainted with the Count and his sister, Stephanie, who is a very pretty and charming woman and entertained daughter and myself in their beautiful home near Paris, this summer."
The Truth Abroad
Paris, France—Helen O. Crowne (white), writing in the Chicago Tribune (Paris edition) on the expulsion of two white Americans from Russia for their mistreatment of a black worker, there, feels that the two got their just deserts. She adds that the conduct of white people in Russia is extraordinary since white immigrants carry Negro blood in their veins, because of centuries of mixing. "Ignorance and insensitivity," she says, "is the cause of the extraordinary attitude of the majority of persons from Southern states, the more so because they are bloodless of the Negro population, whose color ranges from black to white."

SIMPLICITY is a blessed note in active sports clothes chosen by the woman of taste this season. While afternoon frocks for teas and bridge may be all frilly and fully as feminine as one desires, those for out-and-out sports occur more often and distinguished by quiet tailoring. Illustrated is a very lovely little golf frock, the salient decoration of which lies in the way the material is cut and fitted. If one wants to go back to possible Parisian origins for such things, there is doubtless a note from Madame Wimille. The material is knitted, although it looks woven, so closely and carefully do the stitches close in upon

WHAT to dress the baby in at
night is not, to be sure a tremendous problem, but it is something of a question when one is away at a summer resort where the early evening is apt to be warm, cooling off after midnight. Many wise mothers prefer a little "tuck-me-in" nightly which can be drawn together at the bottom around the little feet and which has long sleeves and a fairly high neck. The question then is that baby may not be too warm the early part of the evening. The secret is
one another. Various names have been given this type of knitted sports frock, but most of us just call them mesh knit durenes, thus referring to the type of knitting used in the quality of textile used. Cheaper knits, and less resilient yarns would naturally sag and shrink. This combination holds its shape and is capable of lasting the season through even with many launderings. The young lady with the beret strikes another fashion note in that this adjunct for sports headwear is made of the identical material used in the beret, which is worn. Both are a yellow green edge with green of a deeper, but also yellowish shade.
od Night's Sleep
to have a material so porous, absorbent, soft and closely knitted that it will be comfortable whether breezes are cool or warm. Given this in one of the new porous knits such as those made of soft, gentle durene yarns, one needs merely to leave the bottom of the skirt and write strings untied until the night breezes are up. Then mother or nurse goes in and tucks baby up for the remainder of the night. The young lady pictured seems to register an angelic goodnight look and wide-eyed contentment in her little durene mesh tuck-me-in.
