Haynes Returns From South Africa and "Tells the Story." New York City—Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary commission on race relations, recently returned from a survey tour of South and Central Africa, including the Union of South Africa, southern and northern Rhodesia, Congo Belge and Portuguese Angola. Sent by the International Survey committee to their work in foreign fields, he made a study of the "Y work done during the past ten years" Yergan, among the native students of the Bantu people of South Africa. He traveled about 10,000 miles, visited and studied the work of missions of the A. M. S., giving special attention to the question of "Negro" missionaries and the possibility of their work in Central Africa. Commenting on the relations between Negro and white peoples in that part of the world, Dr. Haynes said: "There are many phases of the race problem in south and central Africa such as we know in America, and there are a number of things in the conditions there which are different from ours here. For example: There are many languages which make it difficult for different groups to communicate with each other in effort to work out their problems. Banks, universities, colleges, separated, and many questions of friction and prejudice, as well as those of co-operation and goodwill are pressing. One of the most striking things is the eagerness of both native and white people to hear about Afro-Americans and their progress and what we are doing to work out their relations. Our ex-convict brothers were known and considered out there. Two very deep impressions were borne upon me: First, that America has a very great responsibility to set examples. Africans know about our lynchings, and we must stop these outrages by all means. They know also about our interracial committees and efforts for interracial co-operation. In South Africa there are manySEC schools where munities working in some of the towns and cities. My second impression is the wonderful character and power of the native people. I touched several places from which it is very probable that natives were brought to America during the days of the slave trade. Everywhere the natives welcomed information about their kinsmen in America, and over again urged me to tell them, "we need help for all that is being done in Africa, and they can extend to us." The good responsibility and opportunity of Afro-Americans, to take the lead in race adjustment for darker people elsewhere, is made very clear when one faces conditions in those lands."

Prof Sims, Oberlin Sociologist, Says Segregation Posters Discontent, Says "The black and white races are farther apart today in the United States than ever before," said Prof. Newell L. Sims, head of the sociology department of Oberlin College, in a talk on "The Technique of Racial Adjustment" at Cleveland College and a meeting of the Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History. "Since emancipation the two races in this country have grown farther apart due to the theory of segregation," he stated. "As a result the whites look upon the 'Negro', intelligent as well as ignorant, as upstarts. Naturally, among them there has grown a great feeling of discontent." "Segregation Has Failed." "Segregation has been generally accepted as the means of adjusting the two races. Booker T. Washington accepted and promulgated the unAmerican doctrine in his notorious Atlanta speech of many years ago. However, 'Negroes' are beginning to realize that his very harmed speech was more of a compromise as the technique of segregation has failed." The Afro-American must amass social power to get anywhere, Prof Sims believes. Only after he has gathered weaned education and oration he will be able to throw off the snakes that threaten him upon him thru segregation, Prof Sims asserted. He urged complete co-operation between the two groups and called for complete equality in all matters. As this is a competitive society, where only force exerts its power, he asserted that the Afro-American must assert social pressure or force to find his place in the sun of American life. DOINGS OF THE RACE Municipal Judge Albert George of Chicago was defeated. Congressman DePriest's majority over his white opponent was over 6,000. On Nov. 1, '30, President Hoover wired length congratulations to Emperor Haile Sellasie I of Abyssinia, Africa. Attys. Charles E. Toney and James D. Watson, Democrats, were elected municipal judges in (Haram) New York City, Nov. 4. Tom Howell of Portland, Oregon, was informed, Monday, that his one-dollar ticket on the Melbourne cup race, Flemington, Australia, brot him $25,000. Acquitted. Of Course! Walhalla, S. C. — Ten whites charged with murder, conspiracy and assault in connection with the lynching, last spring, of Allen Green, age 52, were acquitted, early last week Friday. The jury deliberated on three bins of not guilty were ordered for seven others indicted on the same charges. DePRIEST A WINNER. Our U. S.

Chicago, Ill.—Our wards, the second, third, fourth and fifth, four of the 50 wards of this city, were the only ones in the city to give Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, defeated OJCAR DE candidate for U. S. Senator, the majority of their votes. It was also these wards that elected our members of the lower house of the legislature, Messrs. Blackwell, Gaines, King, Jenkins and Warfield; and also State Senator Adelbert Roberts. The first, second and third wards, and part of the 11th ward comprise the first district which re-elected Congressman Oscar DePriest. ABYSSINIANS BLACK! And Have No "Inferiority Complex" —Whites Take a "Back-Seat" —Surprised But Made to —"Like It." Addis, Ababa, Abyssinia, Africa — It was worth all the discomforts to get here however, to see the surprise of white Americans who had come expecting the Emperor Selsalie I to be a Jew and his subjects white. Instead they found the militias such colored folk as live all over the country, exception: Abyssinians have no inferiority complex so that “Mister Charley” (whites) always takes a back-seat here. For the Abyssinians know that whites have attempted to steal their country for centuries and have been defeated every time because the roads were bad and the mountains impassable. In the back of the heads of Abyssinians was the death of the militants come with one eye for the coronation and on concessions. Platium mines, gold mines and the country which has the only climate in North Africa that is healthful to the white man are here. It was also worth the trip over and the discomforts to see black kinky-haired thick-lipped Negroes walk proudly through palace and street, their patriotic and spirit an evidence of 15,000 years of independence. Proud women barefoot, carry burdens up on their heads. Others ride donkeys. A few of the rich have autos. —J. A. Rogers in Baltimore Afro-American. "BLACKBIRDS," BEST SHOW On Broadway, "Orange Juice Gulch"—"Brown Buddies" and "Sweet Chariot" Close Seconds. New York City, N. Y.—Now that the Broadway theatrical season is again well launched on its way, it is a good time to "take stock." We would like to exclaim "right off the bat" is a grand season. There are half a hundred legitimate tractions running just now along the elegant canyon (Broadway) and some 150 more scheduled for winter production. "Blackbirds" Score. A landmark of some sort has been set up by the 1830 edition of Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds," a hot chocolate revue distinguished by the native rhythm of the cast, and the particular talents of Miss Ethel Tucker, the teacher in demonstrating why the nuttiness with "Harlemania" by her rendition of the ballad, "My Handy Man Ain't Handy No More." There is plenty of music of a high caller in "Blackbirds," starting with the lusty spiritual "Roll, Jordan; at the beginning and going down thru" "Cabin Door." Another Successful Revue. Another "Negro" show, a new arrival on the seething shores of Orange Juice, the favorite Chariot" and is distinguished by the performance of Frank Wilson, the erstwhile star of "Porgy." As a SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS contrast to "Blackbirds" and "Brown Buddles," "Sweet Charlot" serious drama, fine and plenty of buddles. Bill Robinson and Adaldea Hall. MOB VIOLENCE BRANDED ANARCHY! By an Influential Group of Southern White Women Which Plans a Crusade for Its Eradication—All Good Citizens Called Colonel Atlanta, Ga.—Twenty-one women (white), prominent in the religious, educational and social life of the South, met in Atlanta, Nov. 1, broadcasted to the world a repudiation of lynching as "a defense of womanhood," and called upon America to make an end of this crime, "which is the greatest and most dangerous religion around the globe." Eight southern states were represented in the meeting, called by the Commission on Interracial Co-operation. It spent the day planning a sustained southwide crusade, through all available agencies, against mob violence. Efforts will be made to enlist the organized bodies of women, religious and civic, and a special appeal will be made to the public for various states, in the belief that their influence may be made an effective factor in the prevention of lynching, as has been demonstrated in Alabama, North Carolina, and other states. Most of the women are officially connected with large and influential bodies of women. Following is the statement which was unanimously adopted and given to the public. Oppose Lynch "Defense." Oppose Lynch Defense. "Distressed by the recent upsurge of lynchings, and noting that people simple to kill are not necessary to the ground that they are necessary to the protection of womanhood, we, a group of white women representing eight southern states, desire publicly to repudiate and condemn such defense of lynching, and to put ourselves definitely on record as opposed to this crime in every form and under all circumstances. We are profoundly convinced that lynching is not a defense of womanhood or of people who are innocent of man, but private and public safety, and deadly blow at our most sacred institutions. Instead of deterring irresponsible and criminal classes from further crime, as it is argued, lynching tends inevitably to destroy all respect for law and order. It represents the complete breakdown of government and the triumph of anarchy. It brutalizes the community where it lives, and the children who frequently witness its orgies, and particularly the youth who are usually conspicuous participants. In its indiscriminate haste for revenge, the mob sometimes takes the lives of innocent persons, and often inflicts death for minor offenses. It brings contempt upon America as the only country where the occurrences of disreputed our civilization, and around the Christian religion around the globe. We would call attention to the fact that lynching is not alone the crime of ignorant and irresponsible mobs, but that every citizen who condones it, even by his silence, must accept a share of its guilt. We, therefore, call upon all our public offices to use every power at their disposal to protect from mob anarchy the laws they are sworn to defend; to upon our rejection; to cry aloud against this crime till it is over; to parents and teachers to train up a generation incapable of such relapses into barbarism; upon all right-thinking men and women to do their utmost in every way for the complete eradication of this crime." JURY PROBE GANG KILLING. Report Blames Militia and Sheriff' Aids to Gang of Young George, Gran Atlanta, Ga.—The mysterious fatal shooting of George Grant in McIntosh county jail, recently, while he was under the protection of both civil and military authorities has been moving toward a grand jury investigation for some days. Grant was shot to death in Darin (Ga.) jail, Sept. 8, after he had been captured in a swamp for participation in a gun fight resisting in the death of deputy marshal State to prevent violence. Solicitor General Joseph T. Brice of the Atlanta circuit issued a report, last week, blaming "divided responsibility" between the militia and the sheriff's force in failure to protect the man. Never Drank, Gambled or Lied! Never Drank, Gambled or Lied! Maryville, Mo.—He never took a drink, he never gambled, he never contracted a debt he didn't pay, and he never told a lie. That is the record achieved by the late Charles Martin, bank porter, waiter and cook, whose monument done by a celebrated sculptor, will soon be erected in front of the courthouse he graced with.

EMPEROR RAS TAFARI To Have a Million-Dollar Palace—Foreign Diplomats and Madam Frieda Haetel, Lady-in-Waiting to the Empress. Addis Ababa, Abyssinia, Africa.—The coronation ceremonies ended, Emperor Haile Selassie I (Tafari) intends to build a million dollar palace on the site of the present wooden structure, believing the new building will be more in keeping with the King of Kings. Since he spent most of the personal fortune on the coronation, the funds for the new palace must PAS TAFARI RAS TAFART come from the granting of concessions to foreigners, the sale of some of the emperor's vast land holdings, and voluntary contributions from the people. The emperor receives no salary and therefore is largely dependent for income upon customs revenues and levies on tribal holdings, and American debtation to be coronation bebedt but exhilarated by the three weeks' festivities attending the splendid ceremonies which attended the great Abyssinian event. The chief delegates, H. Murray Jacoby, Gen. W. W. Harts and their wives said their stay in Abyssinia was the most wonderful experience of their lives. They were the recipients of nomination to be emperor, them to emperor, who received them in special farewell audiences. Another American, Burton Holmes, motion picture lecturer and travel-authority, received unusual honors. Emperor Halle Sasselie I presented him a magnificent national Ethiopian costume and also decorated him with the Order of Menelik II. The Turkish and French emperor, left with the American delegation but the Duke of伦敦's British party remained three weeks longer for a lion hunt, and the Italians left, Nov. 12. One silly feature of the coronation festivities was the situation brought about by the wife of a foreign diplomat, who questioned whether a fine German woman had had acceded to the position of the Ethiopian emperor, the Ethiopian empress had the right to sit at dinner with the foreign diplomatic corps. They held a special meeting and decided (for themselves only) that Madam Frieda Haetel, the lady in question, had a right to sit with the foreign diplomats when in the presence of the empress. The incident was solved before news of it reached the emperors' ears on the "dips" would have been officially "sat down" him and the empress. Mrs. Haetel came to Abyssinia, many years ago, and is considered the most powerful person in the entourage of the empress. NO DIFFERENCE! "Race is no indication of ability or character," Dr. Melville Herskovits, assistant professor of anthropology at Northwestern University, Chicago, said, Monday night, in one of a series of lectures at The Temple, E. 105th St. and Anselrd R. Clitung upper class Haitians, who are completely French except in color, and American-born Japanese children whose habits and reactions are exactly the same as those of descendants of Mayflower passengers, Dr. Herskovits said "even anthropologists do not now venture to form a definition of what constitutes a race." And yet that segregation pair, Alex H. and Mrs. Mary Martin are trying to prove to the world that there is a radical difference between "Negroes" and other races. Separate hospitals, separate teachers' organizations and other segregation seem to be their sole ambition and life-work (to please prejudiced whites). B. L.

(Bell 'Phone: CHerry 1259) Member Ohio Legislature: 1894 to 1896; 1896 to 1898; 1900 to 1902. IN UNION IS STRENGTH 10,000,000 Afro-Americans 350,000 in Ohio. 60,000 in Cleveland. Every so-called "Negro" ward in the state of Ohio cast its vote for U. S. Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch. The N. A. A. C. P. branch in Cleveland, like nearly all of the others throut the state of Ohio, did NOT "carry on anti-McCulloch activity with especial vigor", as claimed by Secretary Walter White. But for the baneful effect of unemployment, Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch and Gov. Myers Y. Cooper both would have been elected and reelected, respectively. The alleged opposition of organized labor would not have defeated either of them in normal political times. JACKSON NEARLY DEFEATED! Hamilton county (Cincinnati) elected six of its eight Republican candidates for State Representatives. One of the two defeated Republican candidates was Atty. Wm. Bush, a member of the race. So the Hon. Perry B. Jackson of Cleveland, who came so near being defeated Democrats are still "parking at him," will again be our only representative in the State Assembly, our only Ohio legislator. If the "Negro" Democrats of Hamilton county had been as wise and loyal as voters of other groups usually are, they would have voted for Mr. Bush and thus "put him over," elected him. And here in Cleveland the "Negro" Democrats came within an "ace" of encompassing the defeat of Mr. Jackson. "OUT OF LUCK." Now come the days of the alleged "Negro" Democrats' discontent and disappointment! As the result of the Democratic landslide, election day, many of them have had their ears to the ground listening in vain for the approach of white co-workers (political) bearing jobs which they will not get. In addition to the $30 each, a number of them received during the campaign for service alleged to have been rendered, some of them were promised jobs which of course will be given to white Democrats. The "colored brother" Democrat will be "out of luck," as usual. About the only local victory the Democrats gained, anyhow, was the election of a county commissioner whose two Republican colleagues will see that he gets little or nothing in the way of jobs. The re-election of County Prosecutor Ray T. Miller and the election of Johnnie Sulzmann, sheriff-elect, but fill jobs already held by Democrats. Practically all of Miller's assistants will remain. And there will not be too many changes in the sheriff's office. Therefore, the outlook for the appointment of even one or two "Negro" Democrats by Sulzmann (or the Democratic boss) is not at all good. And Congressman-robert J. Bulkley's political hands are tied because the Hoover administration, to which he would have to appeal for jobs, is Republican. After all, the recent Democratic landslide victory is not so much and does not mean anything to the "Negro Democrat for revenue only." THE MUNICIPAL JUDGESHIP. The Republican organization of this city had selected the late Atty. Wm. R. Green for an appointment to the Municipal Court bench in event of a vacancy being created at the recent election by the elevation of any one of its members to the common pleas bench. Several of our local attorneys have been mentioned as candidates for the place which ought to and we hope will be given to Ex-Senator John P. Green, Wm. R. Green's father, and the oldest practicing attorney (colored or white) at the local bar; because he is the most deserving and the best fitted by long years of experience, ability, and more than fifty years' activity in behalf of the Republican party of the city, state and nation. His appointment, too, would give the greatest satisfaction to the largest number of both groups or races in the community. And The Gazette urges Mr. Maurice Maschke, head of the local Republicaiz organization, to recommend Mr. Green, and Gov. Myers Y. Cooper to make the appointment. The elevation of City Civil Service Commissioner Harry E. Davis to the position would cause our people of this community the loss of a position almost as important. It would mean no progress for us. WALTER WHITE WRONG. The N. A. A. C. P.'s acting secretary, Mr. Walter White's statements that "The 'Negro' vote (of Ohio) played a dominant part in the defeat of the Republican Senator, Roscoe C. McCulloch," and "It may well be said that the 'Negro' vote in that state determined the issue," and "The mass of 'Negro' voters (in Ohio) broke away from their traditional Republican allegiance" are really ridiculous! Not five per cent of the total Afro-American vote, cast in this state on Nov. 4, 1930, did anything of the kind, and about everyone here in Ohio knows it. If Mr. White is not spoofing, his head should surely be examined. The poorly attended meetings that he, DuBois and other N. A. A. C. P. representatives addressed in this state during the recent campaign are proof of this fact. "DOUBLE CROSSED!" A current rumor persists in "The Roaring Third" and the East End of this city that "The Blossom Triplets" (Councilmen Payne, Bundy and George) "double crossed" Judge Virgil J. Terrell, one of the ablest, fairest and best judges on the municipal court bench. Our people haven't a trucer friend in the city of Cleveland than the Judge. The real fact is, Judge, the great mass of the Afro-Americans in that section of the city are NOT followers of Payne, George and Bundy because they, too, were "double-crossed" by them when "The Blossom Triplets" broke their solemn pledge to do everything in their power to help oust Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom and then supported him for appointment or re-appointment. PROF. SIMMS RIGHT! For many years, more than forty, The Gazette has insisted, in season and out, that our people in this country must have free exercise of ALL that other American groups enjoy of we are to make the progress we should and desire to, and is expected of us. When we say ALL, we mean just that; nothing less. This, of course, includes the so-called "social equality" myth—what is meant when that expression is used. Therefore, we are in perfect harmony with Prof. Newell L. Simms, head of the sociology department of Oberlin college, whose talk in this city recently on "The Technique of Racial Adjustment" surely "rattled the dry bones" of the prejudiced of all groups. Elsewhere in this paper, will be found a portion of the Professor's address, delivered in Cleveland college to the Association for the study of Afro-American Life and History which was in session there, week before last. We want to congratulate Prof. Simms because he is one of possibly three or four members of his group to speak so plainly, publicly, on this particular subject anywhere in this country in the last forty or fifty years, as far as we have been able to see and learn. It ought to be clear to everybody that our progress would always be impeded, and never be what it should be, with Afro-Americans being limited in the exercise of any of the essentials to the full and complete progress of any other American group or class, or race. --- Last of a Nuisance and a Bore. The people of Alabama, according to the election returns available as we go to press, have blotted out a disgrace to their state by repudiating Senator Heflin at the polls on Tuesday. He made his campaign on a plea that the opposition to him was a "Romish conspiracy," hereinafter called a "party disloyalty to its Presidential ticket in 1928. Anti-Catholic fanaticism in its worst form, from the Klu Klux Klan to the Fellowship Forum, was behind Heflin. But now the people of his own state have decided he has played the buffoon at Washington too long and that it is time Alabama had a representative in the Senate worthy of its dignity. It is a pity and another man who is abashing the "Roman conspiracies" Bishop Cannon, is not a candidate for public office, so that the people of his state might have a chance to express their opinion of him as Alabama folk have of Heflin—Catholic News, N.

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 applied the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows. Section 6278.

Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years, like Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Ohio law follows: OBS. ed. representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. most member of mob most another county. such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288.

(93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: Code of Ohio: Sec. 1294. Whoever, the proprietor or the keeper, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities defined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the persecuted thereby to be recovered in accordance with 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. The Hon. Perry B. Jackson should arrange an "Old Timers" evening in connection with St. John's 100th anniversary celebrations, if it is still in progress. MILLION DOLLAR ESTATE Willed to His Housskeeper, a Member of the Council of the Hughes Case, Similarity. Lexington, Ky.—Death unlocked the secret of another old romance of the South here, week before last, when the will of R. W. Woodruff (white), wealthy bachelor, revealed that he left his entire estate of more than a million dollars to his housekeeper, Mrs. Melinda Campbell. The document, dated May 17, 1930, directs that all the property, personal and real, shall go to Mrs. Campbell "to do with as she sees fit." The late Mr. Woodruff lived in one of those old southern mansions which have been the scenes of many a romance, and for the past thirty years Mrs. Campbell, who is now 58, presided over the household with real authority. In addition, she became general manager of the estate and directed many of the large gifts to charities which she the gentleman and did during his lifetime. The Woodruff case is not the first to come to surface in the wills of rich southern gentlemen since the war of the rebellion. In 1924, Col. John T.

The reason we continue to reiterate the statement that the Woodland-E. 55th market is the best one in the city to patronize, not only for the best of everything in the eating line but also because of the best produce of all kinds, and low prices for everything in the market. We want our people to take advantage of its many opportunities for food, saving in making their purchases. Then, too, Wagner Curice's food specials for Saturdays can't be beaten.

H. ed to place the East End Political club in harmony with the great mass of our people of this community in their opposition to the reappointment of Director of Welfare Dudley S. Blossom, that caused thousands of local Afro-Americans to refuse to vote for him on Tuesday last, resulting in his defeat. Mrs. Jeff. Stewart, E. 43d St., a long-time resident of Cleveland, died, last week Wednesday morning. The funeral, Monday afternoon from St. John's, M. E. church, the pastor ordering, was largely attended. Burial, in Highland Park cemetery. Two nieces, in Lorain and the other here, survive the deceased. Deputy County Clerk John H. Perry has been appointed executor of the estate. Her husband was well and favorably known here, years ago. The A. & P. Co. de luxe store, corner 49th St. and Central Ave., of which Geo. A. Sisco was manager until a few months ago, has dispensed with the services of all of its colored employees except one. The result is that nearly all our former patrons of the store are very properly patronizing the C. C. Simon Grocery store, diagonally across the street, of which Geo. A. Sisco is manager, with all American assistants. "Let George do it!" He is always agreeable, willing and anxious to please. The Connecticut branches of the N. A. A. C. P. refused to follow the national officers of the organization in their opposition to the Republican candidate for U. S. Senator in that state and to the Massachusetts A. A. C. P. protested the national officials as the result of their request that it oppose the Republican candidate for U. S. Senator in that state. Here in Ohio the great majority of members of the N. A. A. C. P. refused to follow the national officers in their opposition to the election of Senator Roscoe C. McCullough.

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—The rumor is that Mrs. Alex, Martin, our member of the school board's attempt to organize a segregated, "jim-crow" teachers' federation, is only running parallel with her husband, Alex, the several times and ever defeated candidate for judge who was president of the unsuccessful attempt to abolish Gregg - Dud Blossom - Jim - crow hospital. This couple are well-matched—a pair of self-appointed "leaders" who are ever ready to join the forces of narrow-minded, bigoted, selfish prejudiced "crackers" in piling on the race any and all kinds of discrimination and "jim-crow" Only week before last Prof. Newell Simms, head of the sociology department of Oberlin College, said in his address before the Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History that the two races were the only groups to have been daily because of that American curse, SEGREGATION. And yet this pair of disciples of "Tom-Tom" Hoflin, Cole Blease, Pat. Harrison, Joe Robinson and the K. K.

The outstanding feature of the new post is that when it comes into contact with a car it gives rather than offers resistance. HIGHER GRADE OF GAS FOR WINTER The Air With Which Fuel Is Mixed Is Colder in Severe Weather. Most cars require a different grade of gasoline in winter, as compared with the summer months, and also a lighter grade of oil and gear lubricant, says a bulletin issued by the mechanical first aid department of the Chicago Motor club. Reason for Better Gas. The reason why a better grade of gasoline, particularly one possessing easy starting qualities, is because the air with which the gasoline is mixed is colder in winter, and also the temperature of the intake manifold is usually lower. Virtually all filling stations sell a good winter gasoline. The agency of the moke of car is always in a position to advise owners as to the best oil. Some cars use the same consistency of oil the year around; most, however, are designed for thinner lubricant in winter. Honest and to the minute filling stations usually offer the right grade of oil for the car in question; the Chicago Motor club does not, however, advice motorists to trust all stations to recommend the correct oil. The reason that a comparatively thin oil is better in winter is because oil thickens in low temperatures; frequently the "drag" of the pistons against the cylinder walls and other sources of friction cause an excessive load on the starter if the oil is too thick or too cold. Use Choke Sparring. The choke should be used sparingly. Excessive use of this aid to starting will result in undue amounts of raw gasoline being drawn into the cylinders, and a certain amount, depending upon the efficiency of the piston rings, will leak past the pistons into the crank case, thereby diluting the crank case oil. Whenever the starter encounters difficulty in spinning the engine because of cold oil, the crank should be used to loosen the engine. This practice will save the battery from undue drain. Many car manufacturers advise a lighter lubricant in the gear case, and also in the differential housing. Ascertain from the agency handling the car what grade of oil or grease is best in those parts, and act accordingly. Speedometer Is Reliable Accessory for Any Car The speedometer is now one of the most reliable accessories on the car and most drivers never have any trouble from it during the life of the car. Much of this reliability and freedom from trouble has resulted from taking the drive off the front wheel hub and putting it on the drive shaft assembly. I can remember very distinctly how frequently my first speedometer required adjustment and how I have never touched my present one, says a writer. About the only trouble now encountered is breakage of the cable, which usually occurs only when the cable has been sharply twisted or bent through carelessness. Anti-Freeze Solutions Scores of motorists will be either killed or blinded this winter unless public health authorities stop the use of wood alcohol, known as methanol, in anti-freeze mixtures. This grim prediction was made by Dr. Courses B. Conklin, secretary of the Medical society of the District of Columbia. Although methanol is fatal if taken into the stomach or its fumes breathed into the lungs, there is no federal or state law governing its use except in medical or toilet preparations. Car Ownership in Italy Italy still lags behind in regard to motor car ownership. Though the number of cars in the country has grown from 116,761 in the period between 1920 and 1923, to 340,061 in January, 1930, this includes all kinds of vehicles, with busses, auto-cars for tourists, motor cycles and farming tractors, leaving only 260,000 private cars, including 80,622 motor cycles, or a motor car or motor bike at 155 population. Attention for Battery During Severe Weather Many automobile owners do not realize the importance and necessity of giving their starting and lighting batteries proper attention in the winter. The battery is a delicate piece of apparatus, and if mistreated, will very quickly deprecate. Two things are of prime importance; the battery should be kept fully charged, and it should not be allowed to freeze. A battery when standing idle for any length of time gradually loses its charge. Therefore if the car is not run regularly during the winter, in order to keep the battery fully charged, the engine should be run at regular periods to charge, or else the battery should be charged from an outside source of current. This should be done every two or three weeks. The state of charge can be easily read from a specific gravity hydrometer syringe, which can be purchased for about a dollar from an auto supply dealer. A reading of from 1.250 to 1.300 indicates full charge. The reading is indicated by the number on the hydrometer at the level of the liquid. If the battery is fully charged, it is not apt to freeze when the temperature is above zero, Fahrenheit. It is best, however, to take the battery from the car and into the house in extremely cold weather. Auto Tool Box Is Handy Getting at the tool box under the rear seat of a car is usually rather inconvenient in the case of two-door sedans, especially if the occupants must get out. As the driver is the one who must get out when repairs and adjustments are made, he can avoid unnecessary bother by having a tool box arranged under the floor. Handy Tool Box Under Driver's Seat Eliminates Inconvenience to Other Occupants. boards, directly under his seat, which swings forward as shown. A square hole is cut in the floor and a binged tradoor, fitting flush, is provided. A strong, wooden box, a trifle larger than the hole, is attached to the underside of the floor board by means of small angle brackets. Of course, the available space underneath the floor boards should be measured and a box of suitable size obtained, before the hole is cut.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. AUTOMOBILE HINTS A careful driver hardly ever runs over anybody's lawn or tears down a front porch. Motor vehicle accidents in the United States last year resulted in an economic loss of more than $850,000. The coach dog has disappeared, it is true, but it is thought the midget automobile can be trained in time to run along under the rear axle. More than 60 nations will be represented at the sixth international road congress in Washington from October 6 to 11, inclusive, according to the Chicago Motor club. Frequent mistaking of an automobile backfire for the report of a gangster's gun may have had something to do with the increase in diseases of the heart this past year. Have cuts on the tires attended to without delay. This is a practice which seems to have gone into the discard. It is as good a one to follow today as it was ten years ago. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1930 Hung At A Nursery Window By EMMA LOU FETTA HUNG up for Santa Claus? No, not at all. These cunning socks are merely being dried on a nursery hanger at an open window. Experts tell us that the little articles in the children's wardrobe which can be so easily hand laundered by mother or nurse are made that much the better and fresher. Of course fast colors should be chosen, and sturdy textiles are preferred by any wise mother. Few if any mothers with good taste put shiny, ornate hostery on their youngsters today. Nowhere in the fashion world is economy so locked with smartness as in the child's wardrobe. The fashion magazines call this "chic with practicality". One of the most durable and at the same time attractive hose we have in our wardrobe, on which have a soft, unobtrusive luster. They come in delightful Simplicity In C "I'm a Brother 'Cau Simplicity In Children's Wear A "I'm a Brother 'Cause I Have a Sister!"

Possibly this is as good a reason as any for having "brother-and-sister" ensembles. There's so apt to a brother where there's a sister. The brother-and-sister ensemble illustrated carries the most important fashion note of the season—charming simplicity. These school outfits are beautifully knitted in the strongest of wool and durene cotton yarns, the latter giving a very soft lustrous cast to the material; the first giving it its warmth. The color is the new blue—deeper than Copenhagen. Mothers will be Cleveland, O., Aug. 28th, 1925. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Dear Friend: I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who seeing injustice and oppression within the limits of the law, to expose it and, if possible smite it. You and I have frequently, during the forty-two years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.) Your Copy or an Acq colors and designs and are about 20 percent stronger and more absorptive than most children's hosery. This is a year of grace for young lank from thirteen to fifteen—those sometimes be awkward years of all. Longer shirts for parties, and the subtle influence of that element in the current mode called "romantic", give this growing young girl an opportunity to appear graceful and poised in a manner which short party frocks dangling above growing legs never completely disappear. Length of dresses in general for the youngsters is to be governed these days by the individual child. Good taste has made it absurd to put inordinately short frocks on a long lanky girl. But stylists agree that for daytime hours it is better to err on the side of shortness rather than length, and they look prematurely old and a little queer to too great length of skirt. Children's Wear use I Have a Sister!" interested in the fact that the mixture of textiles in the material adds to its wearability, and making the wool more practical to launder, since the durened cotton does not shrink at all and "holds out" the woolen content. The dyes are fast, too, and the deep blue and other autumn shades are extremely interesting for growing children. Authorities on children's wear seem agreed that the two-piece ensemble of skirt on thin cotton skirt and shorts on cotton is one of the most ideal for active little girls and school days. The little boy, of course, wears nearly cuffed "short" and pull-on sweater shirt. Our advertisers want your trade.

THE MAN WHO DARES "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. py of The uaintance The man whose brilliance of wit and compelling charm of anecdote, woven into stories on every current topic, turned baseball slang into classic Americanese. Lardner's genius was never better expressed than in the adventures of baseball's most celebrated "bonehead," Jack Keefe, in Prime Sport News Fritz Pollard to Lead. Columbus, O.—The outstanding Thanksgiving day celebration here will be a football game between a team of all ex-collegiate stars, headed by Fritz Pollard, one time all-American back at Brown university and a group of former Ohio State university luminaries, captained by Leo Raskowski, all-American tackle in 1928. Pollard will have Sol Butler, Wiliams and a number of others with him, while Raskowski has marshaled the services of Byron Eby, western conference all-star back in 1926; Allan Holman, Leo Urdill and other stars who have played in recent years. "Gorilla" Jones Wins. Rochester, N. Y.—Piling up a margin in the last three rounds "Gorilla" Jones, Akron, O., wetter-weight, won the judges' decision over Abie Lichenstein of this city in a 10-round bout, Monday night. The local pug, fought on fairly even terms until the seventh, but from then on tired rapidly and was "trimmed to a frazile" by "Gorilla." The opinion is general among the wise ones that Bat. will be knocked far better than the Chocolate-LaBarba contest by the "Keed" and then will come another Chocolate-LaBarba contest which the "Keed" will win, of course. LaBarba is to meet Eddie Shay, Chicago featherweight, in this city, Dec. 10, at the public hall. Chocolate to Battle Champion. New York City, N. Y.—Kid Chocolate, Afro-Cuban flash, will fight Battalino, world featherweight champion, in a fifteen-round bout in Madison Square Garden, Dec. 12. The championship contest will be the headline attraction of the annual show sponsored by the New York American. This title shot undoubtedly explains the recent Chocolate-LaBarba contest which allowed to win, atheo Chocolate, his own credit, 10-round bout with LaBarba, former flyweight champion, won about a year ago. Battalino's handlers saw the recent Chocolate-LaBarba 10-round bout and clearly was misled by the unfair decision or the Afro-Cuban flash who undoubtedly wanted a chance at the championship title. Battalino has not fought Andre Routis at Hartford, Conn. Sept. 1929, atheo he has defended his title several times since then, but has done most of his campaigning among second-raters. Bell Barred From the Game. Baltimore, Md.—Ohio State University's football team defeated the Navy 27 to 0 here at Municipal stadium, last Saturday, scoring in every quarter. However, the "poison fly in a pan of milk" was O. S. U.'s recognition of Baltimore's damphool race prejudice in withdrawing from its line-up Bill Bell, its veteran Buckeye tackle and thus going into the game with a weakened line. A. R. St. John, state's athletic director, denied that Navy had asked that Bell be taken out of the line-up as a favor to the prejudiced whites of Baltimore but the withdrawal of Bell, of O. S. U.'s best players, destroys the effect of the St. John denial. Annot the foregoing, one of our readers submits the following: "These parasite—ingrates, representing schools (Ohio State and Annapolis), supported by taxes from the American government, have ignored insulted and Ku Klux-ked a part of their financial supporters, turned their backs on those who make their schooling possible and bowed to prejudiced southern "crackers." Such ingratitude, only known in America, is another reason why civilized countries look upon the U. S. with amazement and contempt."

Canton, O., Oct. 1, '30. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gareth L. Lowndon. M My Dear Friend Smith:—It has been some few years since we have met. Many have been the changes. In reference to your request for information regarding Senator Mc- Culloch's attitude toward our people. I would say I have met him a number of times, personally, and did some work in his interest when he was a candidate for Congress on several occasions. I always found him fair in every particular. I especially recall a time when I was seeking assistance for Harry Micky, (a member of the race) of Washington, D. C., then a messenger to President Woodrow Wilson. Mr. Micky was with President Wm. McKinley when he was shot. He was seeking the same position under President Warren G. Harding. I sought Mr. McCullough's assistance to Senator McCullough's own indorsement, but also that of Senator Atee Pomerene. I feel that Senator McCullough's act at that time was magnanimous. I later received a letter from Mr. George Christian, secretary to President Harding, Among Those On By EMMA OUR title is really wrong. If we follow the example of our friends the society editors, the important people must always be named as "Those present", while the lesser lights follow as "Among those present." Beginning all over again, then, let us say that those present on the fashion stage include many smartly appealing mesh knits in a variety of characterizations such as novelty jerseys, lacy meshes, and soft tweed-like knits. No materials of the season are more coveted than these. Particularly attentive to them are the smart clothes of sports fashion, and clothes to be worn informally in town; at football games, races, and on ship-board.

Who would have thought that cotton would ever be used to give life, a silky glow and richness, to a fall dress and many cases, these new "mixtures" were supplied with a lively low juster through the use of durened cotton, which, as we have mentioned before in this column, gives precisely the right amount of sumptuousness for informal suits and frocks. A fashion report just received speaks of Senorita de Alvarez wearing a rose colored durene frock at a smart European resort.
