PARKER BULKLEY McCULLOCH A PLAIN STATEMENT OF THE FACTS, ALL- IMPORTANT NOW. Absolutely Demand It. The American Federation of Labor will issue charters for the organization of "Negro" unions, but will not compel its local unions to accept "Negro" members. An illustration of the harm this does the "Negro" is illustrated at this time the cooks, waitresses, the cooks, waitresses and waitresses' union is struggling to out several hundred "Negro" hotel employees who are holding positions lost some months ago by members of the HARRIS JEWING union. The Cleveland cooks', watters' and waitresses' union refuse "Negroes" membership and have insulted them by asking that they only of the races or the members in the union members organize a separate or "jim-crow" union. This they have refused to do. The union has picketed about a half-dozen of the hotels in Cleveland in an effort to drive from them their several hundred "Negro" emblems all of whom it refuses membership. The officers of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, headquarters in New York City, are generally known to be Socialists, and not Republicans as many believe. The first assistant secretary (now acting as secretary of the organization in the absence, in Europe, of its executive secretary), and the several other assisting secretary, are members of the F. of its fight on President Hoover's nomination of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina for an Associate Justiceship of the United States Supreme Court. The labor organization opposed the confirmation of the appointment of Judge Parker because of a decision, based upon that of a higher court, which the Judge handed down, long ago. The N. A. A. C. P. opposed his confirmation because, ten years ago, when the Republican candidate for governor of North Carolina, the Judge said he was opposed to the "Jugges" exercise of the right of freedom, something akin to that. The A. F. of L. and N. A. A. C. P. thereupon combined and very materially assisted in the defeat of the confirmation of Judge Parker as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. It was ten years ago that Judge Parker made that unfortunate remark, and yet it was only ten months ago that he handed down the all-important decision. In the all-important decision, the Parker he could not have done it, as a member of the court, he had not vote for said decision. And he did not have to hand down the decision or vote for it, regardless of what higher courts had decided in the matter. All of which gives one a right to believe that the Judge Parker made that unfortunate decision. Parker of ten months ago and since are radically different persons, as far as "Negroes" are concerned, and that he is far from being the enemy of the race that our N. A. A. C. P. Socialist officials, the A. F. of L., and the Democrats would have us believe. U. S. Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch of Canton, who is the Ohio Republican state for the U. S. Senate, has a record, as a member of the Congress prior to his elevation to the Senate, for real friendship for our people which our oldest and best residents of Canton, like George P. Titus, one of the leading "Negroes" in the state of Ohio, willingly, freely and frankly attest. The Senator voted for the confirmation of Judge Robert D. McCulloch of the United States wanted him to do so. Postmaster General Walter Brown, the Hoover administration's Ohio leader, and Gov. Myers Y. Cooper, the state Republican leader who appointed the Senator to succeed U. S. Senator Theodore B. Burton (deceased), also urged Senator McCulloch to vote for the confirmation of Judge Robert D. McCulloch, who nothing else for him to do, if he desired election to the U. S. Senate. Nov. 4, 1930. Ex-Congressman Robert J. Bulkley, the Ohio Democratic candidate for U. S. Senator, if elected, would have to function with the other Democratic members of that august body (whether he wanted to do so or not) on all important matters. This has been the rule ever since the 1990s, when he and just who are the Democratic leaders of the U. S. Senate? The "Negroes" bitterest enmies—"Tom-Tom" Heflin of Alabama, Pat Harrison of Mississippi, Cole Blease of South Carolina, Joe Robinson of Arkansas and others of their vicious kidney, as far as the "Negro" is concerned. Southern Democracy controls matters in the Alabama state, it is the major factor of national Democracy, and controls all of the southern states. Every "Negro" in Ohio, and the country, knows what that means to the privileges, rights and all else of our people in that section of the country. Should any important measure arise in the U. S. Senate, especially one having to do with our rights, with the Republican, the Democratic, and the Democrats on the other, where would Mr. Bulkley, the Democrat, and where would Mr. McCullough, the Republican, be? Does this not show the importance of the re-election and the retention in that august body of Roscoe C. McCullock? If he is defeated, then the Senate lose a vote and "Negroes" lose that assistance to which we would look for assistance, if an occasion such as indicated should arise. In conclusion, the question naturally arises, did Senator McCullough, from a racial viewpoint, commit such a crime (7) when he voted for Judge Parker as the N. A. A. C. P.'s Socialist officials would have our people of Ohio turn away in protest in place of the jurors ago the Judge is alleged to have made a most unfortunate statement, as far as the "Negro" is concerned. Ten months ago he voluntarily voted for and handed down a decision, a very important decision, in the Richmond (Va.) segregation case, which must be taken into consideration in the discussion as to whether, or not, we Ohio members of the race should vote for Senator McCullough on Nov. 4, 1930. His defeat would mean the loss of one Republican vote in the U. S. Senate. The election of Bulkley would mean the gain TWO—GAZET for two votes to the Democratic nomination to that august body in that the Republicans of the Senate would lose one and the Democrats would gain one. In the light of the foregoing, we cannot for the life of us see the wisdom of any Ohio "Negro" casting a vote for Mr. Bulkley, the Democratic candidate for the U. S. Senate, and thus failing to vote for Roscoe C. McCulloch, the Ohio Republican candidate. Signed. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette. MYERS Y. COOPER AS GOVERNOR OF OHIO LEADS ALL IN AFRO- AMERICAN APPOINT- MENTS. In Less Than Two Years Seventy- Five Have Been Made—Guy- der and Gilbert, Members of the Race, Address Our People of Ohio. Columbus, O., Oct. 29, 1930. Editor Gazette, Dear Friend: The following is of interest in this campaign for the re-election of Hon. Myers Y. Cooper as Governor of Ohio, in proving his attitude of fair play toward our voters. I have re- ference to the published statement "To the Colored Voters of Ohio," signed by Major Gilbert and myself, which follows this letter. 46 LEE Gov. Myers Y. Cooper. Groups of our men are being used in Lucas, Madison, Miami, Lawrence, Scioto and Lawrence counties, and many other counties are arranging for similar action. In Jackson county, C. D. Gilmore, a contractor, a member of the race, has the largest and best contracts, and hires only our men. No other administration can show the interest in the welfare of Afro-American workmen. Education is a favorite subject with myers Y. Cooper, and Willberforce, the state's great educational institution for our boys and girls, is being advanced to the status of a fully accredited college. The increase in appropriations for teachers from $178,960 in 1923 to $280,020 in 1929, speaks for itself. Reelect Myers Y. Cooper as Governor and give our boys and girls increased opportunity for education. We Have 75 Appointments. Columbus, Sept. '30. To the Congress, Sept. '30. The undersigned wish to place before you reliable information in regard to the attitude of the administration of Governor Myers Y. Cooper toward the employment of members of the colored race. We find from the State payrolls of August, 1928, under the Democratic administration, that there were thirty-two colored employees work-ing in the 75 colored State employees. In addition there were two outstanding appointments made in the Welfare Department in recent weeks, Messrs. Emmett Phillips of Columbus and Sam V. Perry of Cleveland. This does not include the scores of colored employees of the state-maintained schools and colleges nor the various institutions under the care of the Welfare Department. The employees have been Dr E. W. B. Curry in the Welfare Department, a position never before held by a colored man and of Howard T. Greer of Cincinnati as special investigator in the Industrial Relations Department, another position never before filled by a colored man—Miss Hallie L. Brown, on the board of the Cimson Censor Special provision has made counties for colored men to work on the Highway. During the administration of Governor Cooper members of the colored race have been given more responsible positions than ever before and they have performed their duties in such a manner as to win public approval.

ROUNDTREE Appointed a Special U. S. Attorney on the Recommendation of Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch— A Cleveland Appointed a Deputy U. S. Marshal XII Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch of Ohio appoints Atty. John E. Roundtree of Cleveland, O., special U. S. attorney, Department of Justice, narcotic division, for the northern district of Ohio. Salary, $3,000, and six dollars a day and railroad expenses while on duty outside of the city. Attorney Roundtree has been engaged in the practice of law, sixteen years, and is one of our outstanding lawyers of Ohio, with a record in Cleveland second to none, and has been asked to enter the race for judge. He received his early education in Kansas, holds the degree of bachelor of laws from Howard University and the degree informed of your fine attitude toward my candidacy, this year which I assure you is very deeply appreciated. Since I came to the office of Governor, I have had the satisfaction of appointing many colored people to positions of responsibility. These appointments were in the Welfare Department, Industrial Relations Department, Department of Education, Military Department, and State Fire Michael's Office. While the number of appointments at the hands of the Governor are not great, since practically all appointments are dependent upon civil service examinations; nevertheless, at least 75 worthy colored people, have been directly recognized by me. This, I think you will agree, is a fair test of my appreciation of your group to aid me in the enterprise of State Government. I thought you would like this information and I am glad to send it to you. Again感谢 you for your interest, I beg to remain, Cordially yours, VOTE FOR JUDGE BELL. Judge Oscar C. Bell is well-known in Cleveland having served as coach of athletics and teacher of civics, mathematics and business law at East and West Tech High schools, as chief examiner of the Civil Service Commission, as chief police prosecutor and as assistant director of law of the city of Cleveland. Judge Bell is a candidate for Common Pleas Judge, for the term expiring Feb. 8. He is the only two candidates for this term, both booked. We strongly recommend Judge Oscar C. Bell for your support and urge you and your friends to vote for him on Tuesday, Nov. 4th. "Ye Shall Know the Truth." New Monthly Magazine. Subjects, Living Life. 10 cents per copy.

He has defended 46 first-degree murder cases, and has lost none to the chair. The appointment of Attorney Roundtree to such a high position bespeaks the power of Senator McCulloch towards our group, and is due larger to the unrevenues of the rev. Chas. C. A. Alter, the pastor of Zion Hill Baptist church who is constantly seeking representation for his people. Some months ago, on the recommendation of Senator McCulloch, a member of the race also a resident of the city, he deputy U. S. marshal for this, the Cleveland district, headquarters in the Post Office building, Cleveland. O. lor. In addition to the costly decorations, Mr. French went, recently, to Hagerstown, Maryland, and placed an order with the M. P. Moller Organ Company, the largest organ builders in the country, for an "Artiste." This instrument is the last word in organ-making. It plays the most complex succession of organist. The best records made by the world's famous artists are played on the "Artiste" and there is a selection of several hundred such rec- A. B. B. Iceland D. French. ords adapted for all occasions. The "Artiste" conveys more often the instrument of a symphony orchestra than that of a organ. It has been adopted lately by the high-class funeral parlor of the country. Those who realize the importance of good music during funeral services will congratulate Mr. French on his initiative in introducing such a valuable instrument in his chapel. Indeed, he is the first of our undertakers to install a pipe organ for funerals in his home. His chapel in his new place of business will seat 225, contains a reposing room for the deceased, etc. Mr. French is about the youngest 33-degree Mason on record. An announcement of the formal opening of his new and elaborate funeral parlor will be made at an early date. --- (In Advance) One Year . . . $2.00 Six Months . . . $1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter.

Pearson. No better judge sits on the common pleas bench of this county and state than our judge of the court of domestic relations, Judge Pearson. Local labor organizations, running true to form last week, refused to endorse the candidacy for re-election of the Hon. Perry B. Jackson, our only member of the Ohio Legislature. These are the people with whom the N. A. A. C. P. officials are linked in their fight on U. S. Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch. Thos. W. Fleming's motion for a new trial is to be heard in a few days by Judge Silbert, presiding in criminal court. The former councilman left for Columbus, Monday. Do not vote for County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller, who was not satisfied with prosecuting Fleming but persecuted him by bringing about his incarceration in the county jail, last week, before the receipt of the official mandate from the U. S. Supreme court. This was really an illegal action upon the part of Miller and absolutely unnecessary because Fleming was at liberty on bond. No one blamed Miller "for prosecuting Tom" because that was his duty as prosecutor, but we all do blame him for persecuting the former Councilman, last week, as evidenced in the undue haste he exhibited and exercised in bringing about Fleming's illegal incarceration in the county jail. RE-ELECT JACKSON Re-election of Representative Perry B. Jackson is urged upon our voters of Cuyahoga county by leaders of civic, political and religious life of the community. Jackson, who is finishing his first term in the lower house of the legislature, has received endorsements in addition to those of the Republican organization and ward leaders, by the Cuyahoga Citizens Committee, the Citizens League, Cleveland Press, "The Old Reliable" Gazette and the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Our voters, especially, are reminded that every vote counts and that Mr. Jackson is going to need every one he can get on Tuesday next. So speak to all your friends of both groups or races, you can, for him between now and Tuesday, election day. Racial interests demand his return, as a member of the lower house of the State Assembly. McCULLOCH-BULKLEY. The Hon. Robert J. Bulkley of this city, Democratic candidate for U. S. Senator, was in Congress for a number of years. We do not recall his ever securing any appointments for our people or doing anything of importance for them. When a list of questions of exceptional importance to the race were submitted to him for answers, several weeks ago, by Mr. Walter White, acting secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., he gave direct answers to but a few, ambiguous replies to several and "side-stepped" the others. Mr. Bulkley is a fine man personally, but a Democrat and not in a position, because of his party-connection, to do the things for our people most needed, while a member of the U. S. Congress, House or Senate. This our people all know and might just as well recognize and face squarely now as they would have to do, whether they wanted to or not, were he elected a member of the U. S. Senate. Just the opposite is true of Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch. In spite of all that has been said against him, by the Socialist officials of the N. A. A. C. P. and the prejudiced (as far as their local unions are concerned) A. F. of L., a careful reading of the editor's article, on page one of this paper, will convince any loyal member of the race of the truthfulness of this statement, after giving thought to all things to be considered in connection therewith. Therefore, we feel it our duty to call upon our voters of the state of Ohio to go to the polls on Tuesday next and do their clear and full duty to the race by casting their votes for Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch. Do not listen to those persons of any race or group who are striving to coerce you into voting for Mr. Bulkley and thus helping to increase by one vote the Democratic membership of the U. S. Senate which is led by the bitterest enemies of the race, namely: U. S. Senators Joe Robinson of Arkansas, Cole Blease of South Carolina, Tom Heflin of Alabama and Pat Harrison of Mississippi. Be loyal to our people! COPLAND FOR STATE SENATOR. Among the various candidates for state senator, we know of no one who is more able or capable than Atty. David Copland. One of our leading lawyers, he has earned the respect of the bench and bar of Cuyahoga County. He has always taken an active interest in the social, economic and political problems of our county and state and, if elected, will bring to that body an intelligent understanding of the many important matters that will come before the next session of the General Assembly. Mr. Copland will be a toer of strength to the Cuyahoga County delegation in the next legislature. The Gazette unhesitatingly endorses him for one of our state senators and asks its readers to remember to vote for him on Tuesday next. ALL MUST VOTE FOR JERRY! Jerry R. Zmunt, the ablest County Commissioner Cayanoga 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 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, make 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! THE DEMOCRATIC TAIL. Southern Democracy controls national Democracy, being "the head and body of the Democratic animal" while northern Democracy is but the tail. And every one knows that the tail never was the head and body. This explains why all northern Democrats elected to the Congress and the electoral college have to obey the Democratic control which is made up in its entirity by southeastern Democrats. Northern Democrats who have been sent to the Congress have always had to how to this control and will always have to do so. And this will include so fine an outstanding gentleman as Ex-Congressman Robert J. Bulkley of this city, the Ohio Democratic candidate for U. S. Senator. And it is this very thing that will prevent thousands of Afro-Americans throughout Cleveland and Cuyahoga county from casting their votes for him. If Mr. Bulkley were a member of the U. S. Senate, and any of our rights were at stake with the Democrats arrayed on one side and the Republicans on the other, Mr. Bulkley would be compelled to line up with the southern Democrats, leaders of his party. This has always been true in the past, and it is just as true today as it will surely be in the future regardless of his and all other protestations to the contrary. In all the history of the country since the close of the war of the rebellion, no one has ever seen or heard of "right northern Democrats elected and sent to Washington." and never will, as far as we are concerned, as long southern Democracy dominates the national Democratic party as it has done ever since the Civil War. From an Old Cleveland. Macon, Ga., Oct. 22, 1930 Hon, Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Mr. Smith:—With the times as hard as they are, the party, which has been in power so long, surely cannot mean to sell out to southern Democrats. (Mrs.) Aria Sellers. JUDGE DAVID C. MECK Seeks Election to Common Pleas Bench on His Excellent Record as a Judge of the Municipal Court. Judge David C. Meck seeks election, on Nov. 4th, to the common pleas bench on his record as a judge of the municipal court of Cleveland. His educational background is such that he is particularly well qualified to handle the varied types of important litigation pending before common pleas court. He was graduated ous, more fair-minded. The voters have confidence in Judge Phillips. They have always returned him to office with tremendous note. He has served you well. He deserves your hearty support now. Vote for him!

Meck with a bachelor of arts degree from Ohio Northern University in 1887, and with a like degree from Ohio Wesleyan University, as an instruc- years later, he received the master of arts degree from Ohio Northern University. From 1890 to 1893 he had a seat on the faculty of Ohio Wesleyan University, as an Instruc- tor in mathematics and as head of its school of business. In 1902, he was elected to the chair of pedagogy and mathematics in Ohio Northern University, as his position was called to the Cleveland public schools. In 1913, he was graduated from Baldwin-Wallace University with the degree of bathe尔 of laws, and was admitted to the Ohio bar, the same year. Three years later, he was the guiding spirit in the organization of The John Marshall School of Law, and has retained his fervor for legal education by acting as dean of the school to the present time. From the date of his admission to the bar, he has devoted a great deal of his time to teaching law, and some seven hundred students have been prepared for the legal profession under his supervision. In recognition of his able leadership in the law, Ohio Northern University has conferred upon him the honorary degree of doctor of laws. In further recognition of his judicial capacity, the Governor of Ohio appointed him to fill a vacancy in the municipal court of Cleveland in December of 1924; and after only eleven months of service he was elected to serve out the unexpired term. The following year with the support of The Cleveland Bar Association, the metropolitan newspapers, The Citizens League, and numerous other civic organizations, he was elected to a full six-year term in the municipal court. At the time of his election, he is expected to be elevated to the common pleas court of Cuyahoga county, in view of his clean record of fearlessness, independence, and judicial capacity. Judge Meck's friendship for the race is well-known throughout the city. Vote for him on Nov. 4th. MAKE NICOLA JUDGE! The Gazette wishes to particularly call attention to the candidacy of Attty. B. D. Nicola, candidate for judge of the court of common pleas, which it heartily endorses. We believe Mr. Nicola to be especially well-fitted for this office, having been a practicing attorney in all our courts for the past 26 years. After graduating from Ohio State University in 1800 he spent some time at his home in Scarawas County, Ohio, coming to Cleveland, where he attended this time, he has won the confidence in the respect of the bench and bar of Cuyahoga county alike as is evidenced in the report of The Cleveland Bar Association committee on judicial candidates, which says: "He has the training, ability, temperament, experience and professional standing to make a capable judge. "He Citizens League, a non-partisan organization in our city which makes a thorough investigation of candidates, also endorses Mr. Nicola in very high terms. "He is an attorney of excellent character, high ideals, and broad legal experience. In our opinion he is well qualified for judicial service and would make an especially able judge." Other endorsements already received by Mr. Nicola, include besides those of various clubs and organizations, those of The Cleveland Press and The Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Press concurs in its editorials with the finding of the Bar Association and says that he is fully qualified to serve, while The Plain Dealer says. "Voters will find Nicola worthy of support for judge." We feel that Mr. Nicola's practice among all the peoples of this cosmopolitan city particularly fits him for this high office. He has never held public office before and entered this campaign upon the request of his friends that he do so. He is a member of the City Club, the Chamber of Commerce, The Big Ten Club, The Ausonia Club, The Aurelius Club and other organizations. He is also a member of both Bar Associations and is serving as a member of the executive committee of The Cleveland Bar Association. The Gazette feels he is the type of man we need on our campus. We support his candidacy by you and your friends. The unanimous opinion of our citizens is that B. D. Nicola is worthy of our hearty support. RE-ELECT JUDGE PHILLIPS Judge Frank C. Phillips has served the people of Cuyahoga County faithfully and efficiently for many years. Fifteen years ago, he was elected to the municipal court bench. He revolutionized the police court. He allowed no one to talk to him. He also allowed his private office and threw away the key. His house 'phone was disconnected at night. He was the first judge to impose workhouse sentences for auto law violators. He made the police court a power for good. He has been on the common pleas bench for the last twelve years. In all these many years of service he has heard against him. No judge has been more fearless, more courage- ous, more fair-minded. The voters have confidence in Judge Phillips. They have always returned him to office with a tremendous vote. He served you well. He deserves your hearty support now. Vote for him! PRIME SPORT NEWS Another "Chocolate" Victory. Newark, N.

France sends an airplane, built with special care. No Afro-American is a full President of the "illy-white" Metropolitan Park board tax levy committee. Then we should all, vote against it. Here is one chance to make them take us into consideration in the future. ELECT James C. FOSTER State Representative Republican Ticket Tuesday, Nov. 4 VOTE X | Joseph STATE REPR Republic PETER H.

Mr. Bettman left a large and lucrative private law-practice to ever the greater of the state, he never bonors. Due to his keen legal talent, he has had tremendous success in winning cases for the state. His service has meant a savings of millions of dollars to the people of Ohio. Mr. Bettman is an idealist who makes a practical application of the duties and obligations of citizenship in this country. He firmly believes that the state he worked in business should offer the benefit of their wide knowledge and experience to the service of the state, and citizenship carries with it an obligation upon the part of both rich and poor to participate actively in the affairs of government. In the practical application of that creed, he has rendered the best service that any Attorney-General of Ohio has ever received.

Eight Common Pleas judges are to be elected on Nov. 4, 1980, five of these to succeed that’ number of judges now sitting on the bench and to fill the three new Judicial post- Hons created by the last Legislature. Among the season jurists now on the bench and seckiug re-election is Judge Harrison W. Ewing who orlg- inally was appointed to the position to fill an unexpired term of four years and three months, and who {n 1926 was elected to succeed himself by the tremendous majority of over 71,000 votes. He is now serving his sixth year as a judge of our Com- mon Pleas court. The judgeship, now occupied by Judge Ewing, dit fers from all the others because it does not expire until Feb. §, 1931, while theirs begin, Jan. 1, 1931, That will explain why the contest. for this Office will be found in a separate gikas gn-dhs futiciacy “allot cader the heading “For Judge of the Com- mon Pleas @ourt, Term Ending, Feb. 8, 1937, Vote for One.” Judge Ew- ing has but one opponent who is a fudge of the local municipal court with a term not yet expired.

Our readers should know that in 1928 the American Judicature Society, at the end of a survey by some of the most impor- tant leaders of legal thought in America, said: “The Common Pleas court of Cuyahoga county is the best trial court in the United States.”” In August of this year it said: “This court maintains its high standards of excellence. It is a model court for all citizens.” The official ree- ords show that during the past five years the Common Pleas court of this county, tested by the number of cases disposed of per judge, has in- creased nearly 25%. In this en- vironment of extraordinary effici- ency Judge Ewing has proved him- self to be an industrious, accurate, conscientious and effective judge. The same court records show that, during the past eighteen months in the civil trial division which is chiefly concerned with jury trials, the number of cases which he has disposed of has ‘been exceeded by only two members of the court ,and that ‘by an inconsiderable margin. In tho criminal division, where he presided for the four months of ‘the September term, 1929, the number of cases which he disposed of per- sonally as presiding judge, as well as the number of cases disposed of by the division during his term, are substantially in excess of the num- ber disposed of by any other judge in that division during the past five years. Judge Ewing has been recommended for re-election by the Cleveland Bar Association, the Cuy- ahoga County Bar Association, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the Cleve- land Press, “The Old Reliable” Ga- zette and the Citizens League. In its Judicial Bulletin just issued, the League says concerning him: “Por five years on the ‘bench, he has demonstrated that he is a pains- taking and impartial judge; in our opinion he should be re-elected. PREFERRED!” As indicated in the foregoing we are more than pleased to add our recommendation and endorsement of Judge Ewing for re-election, princi- pally because he has always indi- cated a real friendship for our peo- ple, always treating our attorneys with whom he came in contact prop- erly, just as he treats all others. The voters of this county cannot afford to lose the services of this outstand- ing Jefee who has so well demon- strated his usefulness in the office which he now occupies. ORES SARS SER AcReMeNt.

The judicial candidates recommended by The Association are men who have had many years experience on the bench and made splendid records as judges. On account of their out- standing ability, their fairness and impartiality the lawyers of The As- sociation, which numbers 1958 mem- bers, has placed its stamp of ap- proval on them. The lawyers who come in contact with these judges almost daily have said that they are the best-fitted to serve the people of this community, and these same lawyers have no selfish motive in their action. The lawyers as well as the voters want judges that are honest, able and impartial. The members of The Association who recommended these judges are the same lawyers who handle the legal business of the people, year in and year out. Surely if they are. cap- able of advising them in their legal and business affairs, they should also be capable of advising them as to the qualifications and ability of the candidates the voters are to elect judges.

Eirick in’ connection with con- tracts for public work has never been questioned. He was County Commissioner for seven years and his record is an open book. He is known as the “father of High Level Bridge” for after the City of Cleve- land had voted down three different bond issues for a high level bridge, Mr. Eirick established the legal right of the County to build bridges on State and County roads in the city, which made possible the con- struction of the Detroit-Superior High Level Bridge. He was a mem- ber of the commission supervising the construction of the New Court House and this is one of the finest structures of fts kind in the United States, He is also a member of the commission supervising the con- struction of the new Criminal Court and Jail Building being constructed on HB. 21st St. and will be ready be- fore the end of the year. Mr. Eirick says: “As Sheriff, I will conduct the office in the same careful and conscientious manner as I did the office of County Commis- sioner and place the county jail on a higher plane than it has ever been betore.” Vote for Wm. P. Eirick for Sher- it on Nov. 4th. BENDER STRONG CANDIDATE. State Senator George H. Bender, Republican candidate for Congress from the 21st district, was born in Cleveland, thirty-four years - ago.

And this means all classes or groups of citi- zens without respect to race or col or. The same good treatment was accorded all. In the case of our people, Mr. Day appointed three of i fo * tap ' ; ee his fifteen employees. This was one more Afro-American employee than that office had ever had before and one more than it has had since. This fall, more than ever before in years, the'state Republican ticket needs candidates strong with the people— the mass of yoters of Ohio—and it is a matter of considerable satistac- tion for Republicans generally of the state to know that in Harry 8. Day of Fremont they have a candi- date that will prove a tower of strength to the Republican ticket on election day in November. It-is not necessary, The Gazette feels sure, to remind our voters of the fact that they lave a special and particular interest. in Mr. Day’s success, ‘be- cause it is is purpose to see to it that we are given the same amount of representation in his office force at least, and better if possible. So tell all your friends and acquaint- ances to not forget that they have a special interest in his success on No- vember 4, 1930. Do your duty! Vote for Harry §. Day! Sawicki Tries Golden Rule, Municipal Judge Joseph F. Sawic- Ki is a candidate for the court of com- mon pleas of Cuyahoga county at next Tuesday's election. During his twelve years of service on the bench he has tried to temper justice with mnerey, believing most of the offend- ers thru sensible treatment can be ‘diverted from the path of hardened ‘criminals. He is well liked because his principle of the “Golden Rule” has brought good results in_ninety- five per cent'of the cases. Recently Judge Sawicki dealt anotier blow at salary-buying when he dismissed the suit brought against two working- men who had borrowed $10 each. He told the plaintif! the interest amounted to 240 per cent annually and called his subterfuge a public nuisance. Our citizens will make no ‘mistake in voting for Judge @awicki.
