Standing on a potato barrel, Councilman Herman H. Finkle, re- publican floor-leader of City Council, directed the distribution of $5,000 worth of food, last week Wednesday morning, at the fifth annual "Finkle-Bernstein Twelfth Ward Christmas party." Five thousand guests, mostly our people—old and young, men and women, some with threadbare clothes and some with a hungry look on their faces—jammed the yard of Case-Woodland school at E. 401st St. long before the designated hour, 10 a.m. It was the biggest Christmas party ever held in the twelfth ward or that section of the city. The demand was far above previous years, according to Finkle, who announced that 3,758 tickets were issued, compared with 2,200 last year. Barrels are Barricaded. The tickets entitled each of the lucy kings of one of the substantial baskets for 500 pounds up inside a temporary fortress of potato barrels. Atty. Bernstein, broad and smiling Republican leader of the twelfth ward, played Santa Claus, shouting, "Come along, hold your tickets; Merry Christmas!" The long line smiled back and echoed, "Merry Christmas to you. Finish the work of a charitable organization, Woodland Ave," behaved like a general—beckoning, pointing, shouting directions. Rationing an army was nothing compared with feeding of the throng in the school yard the morning before Christmas. The baskets were passed along to the front yard, filling up as they moved. First, in went the vegetables—potatoes, onions, cabbage and peas or beans. Then a double loaf of bread. Finally a big ham, and occasionally a chicken, intended to feed a family of five. A card was attached to each basket to collect the entire Christmas and Happy New Year; Herman H. Finkle, councilman; Alex Bernstein, ward leader; Finkle said he and Bernstein bought 3,600 hams, 3,600 double loaves of bread, a car load of potatoes and half a car load of onions. The distribution of tickets was in the hands of charitable organizations and volunteers. In addition, Finkle saw to it that every resident of the ward who registered for work at City Hall was given a ticket. WILKINSON-SHEFFIELD Nuptials a Gala Event—Newlyweds College Graduates and Professors. Orangeburg, S. C.—In an exquisite setting, with a color-scheme of pink and green augmented by Xmas decorations, Miss Helen Raven Wilkinson, eldest daughter of President and Mrs. R. S. Wilkinson of South Carolina State A. and M. College, was married to Prof. Frederick Marshall Sheffield, six o'clock Xmas evening, at the president's home. Rev. Edgar C. Burnz, rector of the church of the Redeemer, performed the ceremony in the presence of visiting relatives and a large number of prominent local and out-of-town Friends. Ms. Thelma-Si Bell, the piano, and Miss Beryl Winston, solist, performed the nuptial music. The walls of the spacious reception, living and dining rooms were artistically bordered with green southern silimac, potted flowering pink gloria begonias and ferns were set in every corner on small tables where three pink or white tapers glowed throughout the ceremony. In the living room where the ceremony was performed was a white altar in front of a seven branched candelabra with potted ferns and flowering pink begonias and flowering pink gladiolus by basin pink gladiolus and two other branched candelabra. The bride in traveling gown of green ensemble and matching accessories with her husband sprang a surprise on the family and friends by leaving for an unknown destination. She is a graduate of Atlanta University, and is also associated with the Department of Chemistry at State College. The groom is a graduate of Oberlin College and has been professor of French at the State College for seven years. AN OPPORTUNITY!

Cohen, age 70, of New Orleans, U. S. Comptroller of Customs, died. Monday morning, after one week's illness. Pneumonia. He was the Afro-American Republican leader of Louisiana for at least a decade. Frederick Douglass Stubbs, of Washington, D. C., is one of the ten men in the senior class of Harvard Medical school to be elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha honorary society, national organization to which only medical students are eligible. Six men in the country have been so honored. The U. S. Senate, before recessing for the Christmas holidays, confirmed the nomination of Jefferson S. Coage, of Wilmington, Del., as recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia. Mr. Coage succeeds Arthur G. Froe, of Welch, W. Va., who resigned, Oct. 1. He had been second deputy recorder under Mr. Froe. According to Rev. Simon P. W. Drew of N. Y. City, the two greatest events of 1330, from our (racial) viewpoint, were: "Crowning his excellency Ras Tafari of Abyssinia, Africa, as Emperor Haile Selassie I, of Ethiopia, 'King of Kings', and the election of two Afro-American Democrats as municipal court judges in New York City." THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWWIEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. FLEMING HEARING. The Former Councilman's Wife and the Widow of Officer Oehme Asked the Governor to Pardon Friend Officer in the State Capital. Columbus, O.—Mrs. Lethia Fleming, wife of the former councilman; Mrs. Margaret Oehme, widow of Detective Walter Oehme (deceased); "Col. Sidney B. Thompson, Atty. Alex. H. Martin and others of Cleveland appeared before Gov. Myers Y. Cooper at the state capitol, Monday, asking a pardon for former, Councilman Thos. W. Turning, who is siring a daughter and nine months in the Ohio pontentiary, as the result of Oehme's charge of accepting a $200 bribe from him for assistance rendered him in securing nearly $2100 for medical services, etc., from the city of Cleveland thru its City Council. The history of the Fleming case is so well and generally known that it is not necessary to recount it at the mother filed with the chief executive of the state, who is to be succeeded in office on the 10th of this month by Gov.-elect George White (Dem.), affidavits in which among other pertinent statements appear the following: "This is the first time," said her husband on her A. Mar. 7, 1930, a few days before his death in a Cleveland hospital, "in my life that I have ever feared anything. I have a feeling that I will never come home and I want you folks to straighten out the matter of the bribe-charge against Tom Fleming. It was not true that I gave the $200 check to him as a reward for his service as of 1927. The check was delivered to Mr. Fleming in payment of attorney's fees and not as a bribe. It was not accepted nor received by him as a bribe. He cashed said check for me, retained a portion thereof to apply on his fees and returned to me the balance." Mrs. Oehme also said that she was forced by her husband to testify against Fleming during the trial of the case. The court was made on April 25, 1930, and corroborated by that of her mother. Mrs. Fleming asked the pardon of her husband, first, because he is innocent of the charge upon which his conviction rests; called attention to his activity of four and two years ago in behalf of the candidacies of Gov. Myers Y. Cooper, and for all other Republican candidates, new state and local for many years; his assistance to many persons in and out of politics, and also called attention to the distressing fact that the loss of his accumulation of gears is seriously threatened unless his liberty can be secured immediately. Many other interesting facts were developed by Mrs. Oehme, Mrs. Fleming and others during the conference which ought to prove of material assistance in securing the clemency asked. The Governor did not announce what action he would take in the matter but he confidently expect that Fleming pardon of Mrs. Fleming just prior to the expiration of the Governor's term of office next week Saturday. The Hon. Harry C. Smith, for forty-eight years editor of The Gazette, and for six years a member of the General Assembly of Ohio, from Cuyahoga County thirty years ago, spoke. Thursday evening, at Second Street, the University of the Poindexter Brotherhood in observance of the one hundredth anniversary of the publication of the "Liberator" in Boston, by William Lloyd Garrison. The Gazette is one of the few oldest newspapers published in this country by our people. Proceeds of the meeting were given to the church committee to be presented to the plowed.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1931. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL Social activities seem to be at a low ebb this winter caused no doubt by the "Hoover Prosperity", or good times, which we didn't get. Well, the best thing that can be said of "hard times" is that it teaches some of our people at least that they can live without so much entertaining, picnics, parties and visits, even gooing "down home" to Pensacola, Fla., to attend the funeral of their 97th cousin. Now brother and sister, take this advice should times get better during the Hoover administration, be sure to save money and be prepared when adversity strikes again. It begins to look very much as if some of our people will have to eat their autos before spring, if they are able to retain them. CARRY THE CASE UP! Last week, Eugene F. Cheeks lost his case against the Mills Restaurant Co., Euclid Ave., between E. 6th St. and the Public Square, Cleveland, because of a prejudiced jury's verdict which was contrary to both our Ohio Civil Rights law and the evidence in the case. According to Atty, John E. Ballard the defendant and his witnesses all admitted the illegal discrimination—the refusal because of color or race, or both—which is all sufficient for victory, and Cheeks has only to carry his case to a higher court in order to win. If he continues to fight for his rights, that is, carries this case up, it will show that he is not a quitter, and properly values his citizen-rights in a public place. MARTIN TO BLAME. About ten days ago, Gov. Myers Y. Cooper told Atty. Alex. H. Martin that he would be glad to appoint him to one of the vacant local municipal court judgeships providing he could get the editor of The Gazette to withdraw the candidacy of Ex-State Senator John P. Green. Martin made no effort to do this. Realizing, as he must have, that he was definitely out of the contest for the position. Martin should have promptly withdrawn from it in favor of Senator Green's candidacy. This would have resulted in the latter's appointment and our people of this community would have gained that position. The Senator is also a member of the Cleveland Bar Association. Martin's principal backer for the place, and the endorsement, for the judgeship, of Appellate Judge Willis Vickery, Common Pleas Judge Pearson, Baer and Ewing, and that of Mr. Andrew Squire, the oldest, wealthiest and leading attorney of Cleveland; Mr. Harry McLaughlin, head of the state and local federation of labor, and scores of others of both races or classes in this community. It is unfortunate and deeply to be regretted that Atty. Martin was unable to rise to the occasion but persisted in showing selfishness and the lack of race-loyalty which caused The Gazette to oppose his most recent candidacy—for an appointment to the local municipal court bench. When he opposed the Emmett Mead resolution in a meeting of the East End Political club, some months ago, causing its defeat and thus aiding in the reappointment of Color-Line Dudley B. Blossom as welfare director of the City of Cleveland. The Gazette promptly notified him to the effect that he was "getting in his own way" by so doing; that our people of this community would not forget nor would they soon forgive his disloyal action in that matter and the long-drawn-out "jim-crow" hospital contest. He was defeated as a candidate for a Common Pleas judgeship at the recent November election and was put out of the contest, last week, for an appointment to the local municipal court bench, for lack of race loyalty. "Negroes" who pose as leaders in this community, to say the least, will please sit up, take notice and fix in their minds the fact that our people of Cleveland among other things demand loyalty to the race, first, last and all the time, and this includes the "Negro" member of the Cleveland school board, Mrs. Alex. H. Martin. For the recent loss of a local municipal court judgement, blame Alexander H. Martin! FINKLE AND BERNSTEIN. The distribution of nearly four thousand baskets of food to as many poor and needy people, mostly Afro-Americans, of the twelfth ward and the third councilmanic district, last week Wednesday morning, by Councilman Herman H. Finkle, Atty Alex. Bernstein and their assistants, was indeed a wonderful sight and act, as indicated in the portrait published elsewhere in this paper. No wonder the donors, Messrs. Finkle and Bernstein, have such a large and faithful following, particularly among our people of that section of the city, since this has been an annual event, for some years! More power to them! HEAR! HEAR!! METROPOLITAN The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! "Nero fiddled while Rome burned" but here in Cleveland "the zeros," otherwise and better known as "The Blossom Triplets," sleep on while the street railway company continues to cut the miscrable street-car service on our main thoroughfare. Central Ave., and give better fare, the street railway service the city and the suburbs. Probably think they will be able, next fall, to get some votes from Lakewood, E. Cleveland and Shaker Heights, and probably they do not know that these people cannot vote for third and fourth district councilmanic candidates. While they sleep, Councilman Wm. J. Lodrick continues to walk the street railway service the W. 25th St. and other lines in his ballwick. Other white councilman over the city are doing the same thing. While extra cars were put on many lines in the city during Christmas week, the poor old Central Ave. line, many years ago named the African branch" by Phil Hirst, an old alder at that time who was overlapped, "counsel Sleep on, "zeros" or "Blossom Triplets!" There sure will be an awakening and a reckoning, next year, in the fall time. That "Ohio Citizens Committee" that met in the Wills Bldg. in E. 55th St., the first of last week, and wired Gov. Myers Y. Cooper asking "just judicial representation," side stepped the Alex. H. Martin candidacy, at the local Hickory councilship, albeit the paper apparently sought to use it as a booster for the same. Martin was really out of the contest, during the last ten days, and could have secured the appointment for our folk of this community if he had been able to arise to the occasion and withdraw in favor of theinator Green. Is This True. Dear Old Rounder: "—Never count your chickens before they are hatched" is a very old but true saying. Yet one of our local attorneys, who is hungry for a judgeship, discharged (it is rumored) his competent stenogram to take the "muny" judgeship, he didn't get. Now he has neither her services nor the much-sought-for and coveted job causing many "haw haws." A Reader of The Gazette. In a letter to The Gazette, dated Monday, Dec. 29, '30, Rev. E. W. Moore, pastor of the Second Baptist church, Columbus, O., writes: "I am in full accord with The Gazette's editorial asking Acting-Secretary Walter W. Hale to consider his political activities during the recent campaign. I also feel that the campaign waged by the N. A. A. C. P. in our state had its effect in preventing the appointment of a "Negro" judge in your city (Cleveland). Also I fear they (P. H. P.) have caused instead of being hit. Will Senator Robt' J. Bulkley introduce and give support to an anti-lynchming bill, or any of the other Democrats whom they (N. A. A. C. P.) claim to have helped elect? (I should say not!-Editor.). FLEMING HEARING. (Continuen from Page 1) in co-operation with Henry Merz at the city hall, Dr. Moore was in charge of the T. Arnold Hill joint mass-meeting, Monday evening, at Second Baptist church. The subject of Mr. Hill's address was "Unoemployment and its Effects upon Afro-American Wage-Earners." He is director of the industrial relations department of the Nat'l. Urban league, N. Y. City, and a member of President Hoover's unemployment conference. New Year's morning Dr. Moore preached the 40th anniversary sermon at Bethany Baptist church for its pastor, Rev. George Washington. Other pastors and choirs assisted in the two-day celebration. A Pension Then Death. Columbus, O.—Death has cheated George Isaac Weaver, age 77, of a pension and retirement. He has been janitor of the city hall for 32 years. A few weeks ago the city pension bond approved him. The pension was to take effect, Jan. 1, 31. "Ike" died, Sunday. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1931 OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mo. violence or anti-lynch bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been 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. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a mob for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (629 v. 161 2.) such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came unless there was contributory negligence Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars, permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share, or the child surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate.

A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case.

Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of a court of law, than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6237.

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: OBJS. ed. representative of victim of lynching try by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. must member of mob must another county. such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence in part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (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: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, 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 the accommodation will enjoyment of the accommodation andages facilities or privileges therein, 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 person aggrieved thereby to be recovered 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 if they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. IS IT ANY USE TO CONTEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Boston (Mass.) Guardian. yas, Jack Keefe.

Dockett, E. 79th St., the inventor. The ozonizer can be placed in the auto, airplane, or on any internal combustion engine, also in heating by the ozonizing system, in a cold dry or cooking stoves. The gas is produced by the rapid evaporation of gasoline (not the vapor). The cold dry gas enters the combustion chamber, where heat from the engine causes it to expand, producing increased energy. The system was tested on the Dodge car, according to Mr. Dockett, and the 333 miles was made without sacrifice of power or performance of the engine. Among those present in the party that accompanied Mrs. Lethia C. Fleming and Atty. Alex H. Martin to Columbus, Monday, to ask a pardon for her husband who was Charles Smith, secretary to Safety Director Barry; Sidney B. Thompson, Howard Slaughter, Harold Gassaway and Joseph Hedges. Affidavits made some time ago by Mrs. Oehme; by Mrs. Anna Cathecart, her mother, and by Mrs. Assha Shiffa, a neighbor, together with the record of the case, were placed before the governor. Martin contended that the witnesses, of which has been made public, were obtained too late to be made a part of the court record and that the courts had held that they could not be considered. Fleming's only remedy, he argued, lies in an appeal to the governor for a pardon which, he declared, will correct the miscarriage of justice. According to Dr. Joe T. Thomas, E. 40th St., who quotes Superintendent McMillan of the City hospital, the following are our internes to make application for admission to that institution, the time-limit being, Dec. 26; '30; Drs. Nolan Owen of W. R. U.; W. A. Richardson and John Alexander of Mehary Medical college; A. H. French, Raymond Ballanger and L. C. Wormley of H. U. Medical department, Washington, D. C. With the admission of any or all of the foregoing six applicants, our people of this community will last have boys born to them for nursing and as internes at Cleveland City hospital.

(1921 Weetern Newspaper Union.) — sO i ee ee VOICES TO SPAN ANOTHER OCEAN The @merican Telephone and ‘scegraph Company has applied for a construction permit to erect & short wave radio station in Cali- fornia as the first step in its pro- gram of extending transoceanic telephone service into the Pacific region. The station is designed to con- nect the United States with vari- ous countries bordering the Pacific and its island groups as radio tele- Phone stations are equipped in the distant countries. As the demand for service devolops, Bell System telephones will be connected with one after another of the far east- ern nations through a combination of land wires and short wave radio transmission, When service is established, it will mean that patrons of The Ohio Beli Telephone Company will be able to span another ocean with their conversations. As now planned, the first reg- ular service will be provided to the island of Oahu in the Hawaiian group. By 1932, it is expected that all subscribers of the Mutual Tele- phone Company of Honolulu will be within the voice range of the United States telephones. Telephone administrations of other countries in the Pacific area have likewise expressed an inter- est in the proposed service. In time it is probable that direct tele- phone connections will be estab- lished with Australia, Japan and others of the more important far eastern nations. TELEPHONE CABLE WITH 3,600 WIRES PLACED IN OHIO The largest type of telephone cable in existence is being used in Ohio, according to officials of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company. It contains 1,800 pairs of wires. ‘The first cable of this type was placed recently at Coshocton and, a few days later, another was installed at Cleveland. For a number of years engineers ot The Bell Telephone Labora- tories in New York have sought means of conserving space in equip- ment. This is especially so in large cities, where space beneath the crowded pavement—that. invisible world of pipes and conduits for tel- ephone and telegraph wires, light, heat, power and water lines—has to bear so great a part of the es- sential services required by the public. Out of this movement, the 1,800- pair cable was evolved, grouping 1,800 pairs of wires together in an amazingly compact sheath having an extreme diameter of two and five-cighths inches. Through this tightly woven strand of wires, each of which is about half the diam- eter of a pin, it is possible for 1,800 conversations to be carried on sim- ultaneously. Congestion Problems While traffic congestion on street levels is an easily observed prob- lem, there are congestion problems beneath the oft-punctured pave- ments which are quite as puzzling and as hard to solve. Costly and troublesome street excavations have to be made constantly in order to repair and expand the various util- ities’ underground plants. Although the telephon company does only a relatively small part of the digging which is done in the course of the year by the various utilities, the new type of cable will probably obviate a number of ex- cavations which would be necessary otherwise in cable installation, and will thereby render some measure of aid in solving cities’ acute and vexing traffic problems. City Hazards Cables came into service a few years after the innovation of the telephone, because of the increas- ing hazards and interference ex- perienced with the overhead wires strung on poles and roof-tops. It was evident that greater effort would have to be made to assure dependable communication. Grad- ually cables took the place of the overhead wires. Primitive cables contained a few pairs of wire wrapped with cotton insulation. To prevent the least taint of moisture which meant sud- den death to the current, these cables were invariably soaked in oil. Paper insulation soon took the place of the cotton wrapping and 4 dry-core cable in the lead sheath, the type now in use, supplanted the oil-soaked insulation in iron pipe sheath. Three deep-sea telephone cables connecting Havana, Cuba, and Key West, Florida, were opened for service in 1921, ae 7 N S Beceri 2 INS.
