FRANK R. CROSSWAITH.
Frank Crosswalth has one of the most consistent records of service to the working people of this country of any person, white or colored. Born in Frederichstad, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, he came to this country in his 'teens; started to work as an elevator operator and attended several schools. He is a graduate of the Rand School of Social Science, New York City, and is teaching there. He is probably best known thru his work as special organizer for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in its fight to get better pay and working conditions for Pullman porters and maids. He has also organized for the elevator operators' union, the elevator constructors, the mechanics, barbers, laundry-workers, and motion picture operators. He founded the Trade Union Committee for organizing Afro-American workers in 1925 and has worked with most of the unions, that have our people in their industries, since that time. For the past two years he has edited the Negro Labor News Service. Frank Crosswalth is known as the Socialist party's foremost orator and has run numerous offices in the Socialist ticket. In 1924, he was on the executive committee of the American Labor party, and its candidate for governor of New York.

'OUR GREATEST NEED'
The Theme Discussed Thoroly at the Community - Forum's Fine Opening Meeting - Langston Hughes. Program Opens the Program.
Rev. C. Lee Jefferson, pastor of St. Mary's Presbyterian church, cor. Thackery Ave. and E. 55th St., opened the Community-Forum at the church, Sunday evening, most auspiciously indeed. His explanatory address was a gem for its thoriness and brevity. The church-auditorium was filled with an intelligent audience that was most enthusiastic and generous, and many guests, including Chruses, a "Cleveland boy" who has already won an outstanding place among our leading poets, gave a very interesting talk on his experiences in Mexico, Paris, down the west coast of Africa, from Sierra Leone to the South African "Free State," and then read very acceptably indeed a number of his excellent poems all of which are remarkable and amenable feature, brevity. The young man says so very much in a few lines, or sentences, in his poetic efforts that that fact alone will continue to distinguish him and popularize them among the thoughtful and intelligent. He was followed by Dr. James K. Nickens whom Dr. Jefferson had selected to introduce the host of the evening, the Hon. Harry C. Smith, the Hon. James C. Smith, and The Gazette, last week. "Our Greatest Need"—honest, aggressive and unselfish leadership, locally and nationally. For nearly an hour, the editor kept the large audience thorily aroused and enthusiased as he cited case after case (in the various city and county departments of Cleveland) of our young women, particularly, who passed high in civil service examinations only to be barred in positions they earned, what is in West Virginia, unusable racial and job-profidence. The failure of our representatives in the city council and school-board to concentrate in an effort to eradicate this prejudice and get our young ladies what they earned was denounced in tones that brot the strongest applause from the audience, and commendation from the pastor at the close of the editor's address. His concise exposition of the careers of and enthusiastic references to our leaders of prestigious colleges, West Virginia, Pineback, Dems, Cuney and others, contrasting that leadership with our miserably selfish and injurious local, state and national leadership of today, was at once ill-
WGAR IS O. K.!
Vice-President and Manager John F. Patt One Fine Man—!O! For More of His Kind in This Country.
Cleveland, Jan. 14, '31.
Mr. John F. Patt, Mgr. WGAR, Hotel Statler, Cleveland.
Dear Sir:—Your attention has doubtless been called to a program over your station, last week, which included an announcement by the pastor of the Community church, at 14000 Detroit Ave., city, in which he used the mongrel term, "darky," one the most miserably insulting one — "the noun telling a story about a "colored" man.
I know it is unnecessary to say more to you because a man of your intelligence cannot fail to sense the condition, as far as thousands of the WGAR radio audience are concerned. Your station started off with the "wishful" the fifty or more thousand of people in this community, to say nothing of the many thousands elsewhere in the country. I know you will not permit this grievous offense to all of them to be repeated and I am simply writing you this letter for fear others (Mr. Herbert L. Taylor excepted) may have failed to call your attention to Rev. Frank H. Nelson's miserable insult. He surely did not want to leave his face for he was in this section of the country where such things are not tolerated, and not "down home" (in the South). Trusting you will receive this letter in the kindly spirit it is sent and with best wishes, I am. Very truly yours, Editor Gazette and Member of the Ohio Legislature 1894-5-6-7, and 1900 and 1901.

Cleveland, Jan. 19, '31.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor Guzman, Cleveland.
Dear Mr. Smith: I am led by the article appearing in The Gazette of last week and your letter of January 14, to offer my most sincere May to this letter, terms employed by one of our speakers wish to assure you that it has always been our policy to withhold any terms which are offensive to any religious creed or race.
We surely realize it does not become a station to do otherwise than to spread goodwill among all classes of people to whom we appeal.
We solicit the good wishes of the colored people of Cleveland and vicinity and you have our assurance that we deeply regret the occurrence, that we have apologies on behalf of the station, and at the same time, my assurance that there will never be a re-occurrence.
Yours truly,
The WGAR Broadcasting Co., Inc.

have it its frankness, cordiality
and clearly evidenced good-will toward all people is most encouraging
indeed and stamps you as being one of the broadcast minded and fairest

in this country.
I am sure that when your letter
appears in the current issue of my
报纸 The Gazette, that it will give
the most encouragement to my people
throughout the country, not only here in Cleveland and vicinity.
Your apologies in behalf of the station, WGAR, and assurance that
there will never be a recurrence of the incident complained of are quite
enough. I assure you, and thank you for them on behalf of my people.
With sincerest best wishes for you and the splendid new broadcasting station over which you preside as vice-president and manager. I am
If I have lived this day aright
Or done my best to keep the light
That burns within my brain and
heart
A sacred thing, but not apart
From common tasks that make my
day,
Then in the evening I can say,
Let come whatever fate may be,
This life is beautiful to me.
But, if that leaping flame within
Is hid behind a veil of sin,
A fog of milice and untruth.
And wanton deeds too free from
ruth,
Then countless prayers to any god
Can make me nothing but a clod.

RATHER LATE LINING UP WITH JOHN BROWN, GARRISON, LOVEJOY, AND OTHERS.
Secretary of State Stimson's Letter on Slavery Sent the Liberian Government—The U. S. of A. Guilty, Too.
Students of morality and contemporary American history will find it no easy task to explain the righteous indignation which Secretary of State Stimson displayed in his recent letter to the Liberian government. In that letter, "Uncle Sam" poses as the outraged Christian crusader against slavery; against the very institution for opposing which, John Brown was hung. Elijah Lovejoy, unloved, unlamed, Steddaa, struck down on the floor of the U. S. senate and the abolitionists generally bounded, tormented and despised less than one hundred years ago.
Frederick Douglass, Wendell Phillips, Wm. Lloyd Garrison and the other abolitionists then felt, even as "Uncle Sam" pretends now to feel, that slavery was a thing and outrageous, and sought to destroy it. But at every turn they found that slavery enjoyed the advantages of the church the protection of the constitution of the United States. What would these abolitionists say it, from their enshrined sepulchre they could read and comment upon the letter a secretary of state of the United States sends to a far off Negro republic on the question of slavery? More than likely they would discern in his conduct the same economic forces at work in the United States and England states defend slavery and at a later period oppose it.
Here is a sample of the circle completed by the average New England business transaction in the days when slavery was respectable. Lumber and fish were sold in the West Indies in exchange for molasses; the cotton made into England; the rum exchanged with African tribes for slaves; the slaves sold to cotton-growers for cotton; the cotton made into clothes in the New England factories,—and a part of the product exchanged for more molasses, to make more rum; to get more slaves; to get more cotton; to get more molasses, etc. The balance of the products were used to invest in and to monopolize western land, to enlarge her own manufacturing interests, to support schools, colleges, and churches. The future might yet disclose that the Firestone Co. in Indiana was in "discovering" slavery in Liberia.
A century ago Liberia was established as a sanctuary for Negroes escaping from bondage in the United States. It was the fond hope of the friends of freedom that the freed black men transported to Liberia would contribute much toward the civilizing of Africa; today we find that the descendants of those transported freemen have been treating the native Africans in much the same manner as their ancestors were treated in the days of American slavery. The American Negro side in Morocco, have held themselves superior to the natives even as the average so-called intellectual Negro assumes an anstere and haughty attitude toward the Negro masses here and in the West Indies.
The situation is a serious one, and calls for "tall thinking" on the part of the thinking element among Negroes as well as among white workingmen. In the past many well meaning individuals have advanced the claim that the "Negro Problem" is one of color—a psychological problem —which can be solved through amalgamation or lightening up the race. A similarity both races on the other hand have steadfastly claimed that the "Negro Problem" is largely an economic one. The revolting disclosures about conditions in Liberia amply substantiate the claims of the latter group. In the clash of economic interest, race, color and religion play but a very minor role. The textile barons of the South exploit members of their own race with as little compunction as they do members of our race. The slave-holding elements in Liberia, if given the opportunity, would as readily enslave white workers as they now enslave men and women of their own race. In this respect it is interesting to do when the role of investigating slavery in Africa was being debated by the League of Nations' committee, a French-African Negro eloquently defended slavery while a white Socialist, member of the British Labor Party, vehemently denounced it.
Albeit, however, the moral lecture which Mr. Stimson delivered to Liberia would have had a greater effect than the one in slavery. It is common free from slavery.

knowledge that slavery in a modified form (peonage) exists in many southern states, and the victims are both black and white workingmen—mostly black. Through "grandfather" clauses, the state's laws limit civil slavery also claims a majority of the citizens in South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Virginia, Alabama, Oklahoma, Mississippi and other hot-beds of slavery in the United States, to say nothing of the wage-slave system which so effectivelyifies the "Constitutional freedom" of the working class North and South.

The
ROUNDER
WHAT'S DOING!
The boys in E. 55th St. have been having oodles of fun at the expense of Eugene Cheeks, for a trifle over two weeks now—ever since Rev. J. W. Yewell and other officers of Tried Stone Baptist church that threaten to sue him or his paper, for a false petition, anent the church. The boys ask Cheeks, it is said, if he has as yet been sued for "ilable."
Your Councilman, "The Blossom Triplets," will vote to create fat jobs and to increase salaries of city officials, but never have we heard of any of them demanding that Charles Smith, veteran secretary of the police department, one of the most efficient, best officials at city hall, be raised to the salary he deserves. Why?
When standing and waiting for a Central Ave. car, car, which soldom passes, and you see a number of West Side cars pass, just remember your councilmen alone are to blame. If you had one of those West Side councilmen to represent you, we would have good service. The kind of service you have on the Central Ave. line is the same kind of service your councilmen are giving you daily, Mr. Voter!
The Republicans of this city should wake up and learn a few political lessons from the Democrats who seem to be "riding" just now on the waves of success. As long as they, the "Dems," were trying to secure a foot-hold, they "fed up" on the news, and they were about nonpartisanism and criticism of the newspapers, etc., and the local G. O. P. seems to have "fallen" for this stuff. But how different the tune, when they get in power! For instance, recently John Sulzmann sat back in the sheriff's office chair and his official family was 100% Democratic as each one had recommended by his prefect committed toalty, and that he (Sulzmann) had looked over each one of them very carefully to see that no mistake had been made. The Rounder, and others, want to know why the Republicans don't wake up and make a few real political moves? Election isn't so far off, and yet there is still time to start building up a successful party, for this fall. They should be by now, and they clean out all who have not been 100% loyal to the Republican organization. There are a plenty of them down there, political Judas who were (and some still are) always ready to stab the present leaders of the party in the back. One sure thing, they have done it, in the too remote past. "Splitters" will be the jobs who are always waiting to strike? Reward the loyal workers with their jobs and throw the political parasites out!

SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 1931.
"The Providential Armistice, a Volunteer's Story," an interesting military sketch of Capt. Napoleon B. Marshall, of Washington, D. C., was issued, recently, by the Liberty League of that city. The editor of The Gazette gratefully acknowledges receipt of a copy.
Wonders never cease: The pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist church, Dr. Hayes, N. Y. City, refused a $400 raise in salary, Jan. 12, 1931, because of "the stringency of the times and the heavy indebtedness of the church." Would that there were more of his kind.
---
The Congress has at last passed a bill increasing the salary of the U. S. minister to Liberia from $5000 to $10,000, something that should have been done, years ago. The Hon. Charles E. Mitchell of Charleston, W. Virginia, this country's new minister to the little African republic, will be benefitted by the increase, as he is now en route to Liberia.
"Judge" Wm. H. Harrison of Chicago, member of the Illinois Board of Paroles and Pardons, has pled guilty to a charge of conspiracy as the result of accepting a bribe of $450 to free a convict, it is said. Thirteen hundred dollars was to have been paid for the prisoner's release, it seems. Grafting is a beaneal "disease" that too many of our So the arrest and conviction of a so-called leaders are unable to resist, few guilty ones will have a salutary effect.
Herbert L. Taylor of E. 90th St., this city, whose WGAR letter in our last issue, all of our readers noticed, is entitled to full credit for the receipt of the splendid letter from John F. Patt, vice-president of WGAR Broadcasting Co., Inc., published elsewhere in this paper. Ever since his advent in this city, many years ago, Mr. Taylor has been one of the most quietly aggressive, loyal and intelligent race-workers in this community. May his kind ever increase, for the Lord knows we need them in this race of ours.
Despite the fact that Councilman L. O. Payne sustained an operation and lay sick in the hospital, Councilman Clayborne George "carried on" successfully for himself and colleague in the effort to have the city council continue the operation of the Babies' & Childron's Dispensary, 2500 E. 35th St. This means that the city council finance committee, of which George is a member, on his and Payne's insistence, succeeded in revising the city's budget and securing outside assistance necessary to get the $27,500 needed for the dispensary's operation in 1931. Fine!
One of our local high school boys writes The Gazette complaining bitterly "of the gross humiliation that our people are forced to submit to at some of the stands at the food show in Public Auditorium." Some of it he characterizes as "contemptible and appalling." City Manager Daniel E. Morgan should notify Col. Twelvetree, manager of Public Auditorium, to stop the discrimination instanter, not only because it is wrong and insulting, but also because it is contrary to the Civil Rights Law of the state of Ohio. The Colonel should notify the operators of the various stands in Public Auditorium that they must either treat ALL citizens courteously and properly, or get out of the taxpayers' Public Auditorium.
Several months ago our girls entered the nurses' training school at City Hospital for the first time in its long history. Several weeks ago, also for the first time, our internes were admitted to the same public institution to train in common with representatives of other classes, groups or races in this community. The battle to secure their entrance,
led by The Gazette, with the aggressive assistance of the late George A. Myers, and others, was waged over a period of several years. Mr. Myers did not live to witness the full fruition of the long, drawn-out battle. How happy he would have been could he have done so, one can only imagine. We miss him, particularly at this time.
A CORRECT ESTIMATE.
New York City.—Having reference to the N. A. A. C. P., Editor Fred R. Moore of the New York Age had the following bit of truth in a recent issue of his paper that ought to be read generally throut the country by all persons of both races or groups interested:
It is hardly the supreme court of race appeal that some of its officers appear to think. The attempt of one or two of its acting officials to assume a dominating position of race leadership, with an effort to browbeat all other forces into a secondary or submissive attitude, has done little to diminish the importance of the National Association should possess. A broader and more liberal policy on the part of the executives, with ampler and readier recognition of such forces as the race churches and the press working for the same objectives, would redouble the influence of the organization among its own people. The attitude of self-glorification and selfish aims too often outweighs outgivings of the organization is not calculated to win respect of recruits to its membership. The bestowal of reward or recognition for meritorious service to a restricted inner circle of two or three executives, and the refusal to recognize the work of others beyond that barrier, is not the way to gain outside support. The growth of local organizations in fields adjacent to New York has been hampered by such shortsighted tactics. The diversified intention to the task of solution demand a broader and more liberal policy in dealing with the race at large.
"The National Association is a much needed and vigilant organization. Its field is broad and its objects definite. All that it needs is a little broader spirit of humanity in its dealing with other organizations and individuals, and less of the dictatorial and domineering tone of the master mind who cannot distinguish co-operation from rivalry."
The foregoing brings vividly to mind the most miserable treatment the national officials of the N. A. A. C. P. accorded its best and most successful working member, Prof. Neval H. Thomas (deceased), several years ago, in refusing not only to make him a speaker at its annual meeting but also denying him the Spingarn medal which hi soutstanding work, in the governmental departments at Washington, D. C., for our people clearly entitled him to. There is entirely too much cheap, petty jealousy possessed by certain national officials of the organization.
DOINGS OF THE RACE.
Feb. 14 is Frederick Douglas birthday. Celebrate it, Feb. 13, 14 or 15, says the Nat'l Equal Rights league, headquarters, Boston, Mass.
Richard B. Harrison, star of "Green Pastures," the play that has been running for many months in a New York theater, was given the Spingarn medal for 1930.
Georgia's loss in "Negro" population from 1920 to 1930 was 135,240, reducing that element from 41.7 per cent to 36.8 per cent of the total population. Our population of Alabama, which is given as 944,834 for 1930, shows an increase of 4.9 per cent.
The expulsion of undesirable aliens from this country at the rate of about 1400 per month indicates that Congressman Oscar DePriest's urge of last February, before the House immigration committee, will soon be felt by the present labor depression.
The late Hon. Albert E. Pillisbury, noted lawyer, of Newton, Mass., has willed $25,000 to Howard University, and other colleges or schools, as the trustees, Garnet C. Wilkinson of Washington, D. C., and Butler R. Wilson of Boston, may select.
Hon. Lucien Hibbert of Haith, chief of cabinet under the recent Roy administration, has been appointed to head the department of romance languages at Howard University, Washington, D. C., and has entered upon his duties. Prof. Hibbert is a licencie of the University of Paris and has taught at Port-au-Prince, Haith.
Edwin Gould, N. T. City, philanthropist, has given the Peabody home, the city to be used as a residence for the children of indigent Protestant Afro-Americans of that city. The home will be operated by the city department of public welfare as a part of the Gould Foundation for children which was given a residence in the Bronx, N. Y. City, by Mr. Gould, some time ago.
MY PEOPLE
My people are happy people.
No matter what goes wrong;
They wear chains and trust in fate.
And sing emotion's song.
My people are working people—
They labor all their lives
To take care of rich parasites
And clothe their lazy wives.
My people are fearless people—
They fight and bleed and die.
And do not want a single thing
But mansions in the sky.
My people are noisy people—
They give to every quack.
And cherish every ancient lie
With moss upon its back.
My people are handsome people—
You'll find them everywhere,
Putting cobwebs in their brains
And pressing down their hair.

6289. Non-relief from prosecution.
Our mor-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been
MOBS.
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 "injury" within the meaning of this chapter (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as per manently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars 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 such assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in 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. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, the widow shall be distributed more than the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.)
Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such 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. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent soynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. At such lynching, a mobile insurer at such lynching, shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to

Several other north orn 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 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 on the part of officials of such county, 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:
Code of Ohio:
Sec. 12340. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employer, owner or manager of an inn, restaurant, building 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 for full enjoyment of the accommodation, packages, facilities or privileges they grant, not defined 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. 12341. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than fifty dollars to the person aggrieved to be recovered in any court of acquittal 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.
OPPOSED TO LOCATION
Of the Latest Branch Public Library

Davis' Explanation.
Hon. Harry E. Davis,
Civil Service Commissioner,
Cleveland, O.
Dear Mr. Davis: I wish to call attention to your statement which appeared in the Lafayette 7, 31, issue of The Gazette that there would be a branch library located in the Cedar-E. 105th St. district
At E. 105th St. and Euclid Ave. there is a branch two hundred yards from the above-named location. In my opinion you should have informed the public previous to a final decision on the establishing of this branch by the library board. The East End live in the 18th ward in the East End live in the 18th ward in the population cannot increase in the Cedar Ave. and E. 105th St. district because of the railroad on Quincy Ave. which has destroyed many dwellings as far as homes are concerned. You did not say whether a modern building like other branch libraries in this city would be erected.
It is hoped, by many local citizens, that the sponsors of this project were not prompted to act to eliminate the of our people in a residence at the E. 105th St. and Euclid Ave. If you so desire, I will voluntarily drive you through the East End and show you that E. 105th St. and Cedar Ave. is not the proper location for a branch library at this time.
Walter E. Carey, Jr.
P. S. — It would be much more
placed if he had a better
opinion.

Mr. Walter E. Carey, Jr.
14611 Tacoma Ave. City.
Dear Sir: -Replying to your letter of the 17th, beg to state that I had nothing to do with selecting the location of the new Cedar-105th St. branch of the Public Library. I did request the opening of a branch in the 105th St. district, suggesting that it be located somewhere between E. 88th St. and E. 105th St. The determination of the site was made by the Library Board officers, whom I believe, are better qualified to decide this question than any of us. You should know that all the facilities of the Cleveland Public Library and its branches are open to all citizens of Cleveland, and that suggestion attained at in the last paragraph of your letter is entirely uncalled for. Yours truly, Harry E. Davis.

CHILDREN hate to take medicine as a rule, but every child loves the taste of Castoria. This pure vegetable preparation is just as good as it tastes; just as bland and just as harmless as the recipe reads.
When Baby's cry warns of colic, a few drops of Castoria has him soothed, asleep again in a jiffy. Nothing is more valuable in diarrhea. When coated tongue or bad breath tell of constipation, use its gentle aid to cleanse and regulate a child's bowels. In colds or children's diseases, you should use it to keep the system from clogging.
Castoria is sold in every drug store; the genuine always bears Chas, H. Fletcher's signature.

That distressing Marysville, Mo., lynching is a *true* indication of the real attitude of the white south toward lynch-murder. There is no gainstaking this, either.
Those prominent Washington, D. C. "Negroes" who have already effected an organization for the purpose of boosting the candidacy for re-naming of President Herbert Hoover, are the same "Negroes" who did the same thing for President Calvin Coolidge. The mistreatment their people have received from both Coolidge and Hoover does not mean a thing to them. Sometimes we feel that same thing is rue of the vital interest of their people, as far as they are concerned. Lord, have mercy!

KROGER COMPANY "STEPS OUT"
The Kroger Grocery & Baking Company in making Ernest Summerville manager of their store at 8702 Cedar Ave. has taken a most praiseworthy advance step that is bound to promote their business among our people, especially in that section of the city. Mr. Summerville, who has had twenty-five years' experience in the grocery and bakery business at Greensboro, Alabama, and who has in recent weeks been trained in a Kroger business, has earned well equipped and is bound to have the success his employers have a right to expect, providing our people in that section of the city will do their duty along the line of patronage. We must learn to spend our money where there are employees of color, if we ever hope to not only gain friends but to retain those we have, whether it be individual or a company. Mr. Summerville's daughter, Anna, is a clerk in the store. Mrs. Lillie Mason, a former employer, now offers new opportunities for our workers in that vicinity, is to be congratulated for her good work in this case. She is a Republican organization ward leader (for women voters), appointed by Councilman Clayborne George.

In later life, he commanded several French cruisers and was commander of the great naval fortifications at Brest. Leaving the sea, he became an expert in artillery and was made colonel of a regiment. All of the officers and men under him were white, of course. Col. Mortenol was in command of the aerial defense of this city during the World War, rendering such service as to secure for him the coveted honor of a Commander of the Army. Among those in attendance upon his funeral were Senator Lemery, Deputies Delmont and Candace, Chief Justice Attulty of the Cameroons, Dr. Vitalien, physician to the late Emperor of Menelik, and a number of other French citizens of color. Col. Mortenol was a black man.

Here's one place where you're got to “atep on It." The Newport News
James River bridge, world’s longest highway structure, leaping four and one
half miles across the James river to Norfolk, Va, has speeded up all Its
traffic. It is no place for slow traveling motorists. A new system to prevent
congestion is being tested. It is now unlawful to travel less than forty miles
tn Bour over this ribbon-like stretch, and high-speed cars can travel at eizhty
fnlles per hour, for there is a "no speed limit.” tere we see Officer E. Hogue

WORST MOTORING
VSIN ON STREETS
Most of the sins committed today
are by motorists. So the New York
Automobile club asked 21,000 car
owners, “What do yon consider the
worst motoring sin that drivers are
guilty of?” ‘The sinners responded
nobly although somewhat divided.
Each one neglected his own short-
comings.
But the sinner consigned to the
deepest pit is the road hog who drives
down the middle of the street. He is
charged with causing more trouble and
amaze than any other. He wears
‘out more good nature and fills the hos-
pitals and cemeteries with more Inhab-
tants.
Would Hang Him.
He fs the culprit that most of them
want to hang. He is the one most of
them would murder In cold blood by
slow torture. He Is the one the back
seat driver hears more lectures about,
He 1s the party who causes most
lapses in religion.
However, his side kick in meanness
4s the fellow who dodges in at the
head of the line. Twenty-five per cent
of the answers would boil him in off
"without benefit of clergy.
Another felon that received a large
ote Is the fellow who makes a prac-
tice of stopping, starting and turning
Without hand signals. ‘The demon
‘who rages into an intersection to beat
‘& signal did not recelve merely a com-
plimentary vote. The moron who
Fushes aliead of the red before the
(Been turns should hear what other
Ivers think of him. Some ears are
sensitive and resentful toward those
‘who eternally horn tn, or just horn in
general. ‘They have horns, according
to thelr critics, but they are not on
thelr cars alone.
Favor Education.
In this election a remedy was sug-
gested. A majority seemed to favor
the education of drivers. It would
appear that there is more highway
Mllteracy than any other kind. Cul-
ture in courtesy is recommended as
‘the best means of prevention. This
4s placed high above summons-serving.
‘While this may have its good points,
some drivers appear to be beyond It.
They need the vigorous application
of @ club. 3
Eliminate Possibility '
of Engine Oil Freezing
Cold weather brings changed auto-
mobile driving conditions. Even sub-
ero temperatures, however, are being
‘combated today by leading automotive
‘engineers. ' One of the latest improve-
ments, which banishes the bogey of
extreme cold, has just been announced
by automobile engineers. By means of
‘@ newly-designed oll pump they have
eliminated the possibility of engine
oll “freezing” and necessitating plac-
ing the car in a warm garage until it
4s thawed out. Engine oll does not ac-
tually freeze, the engineers explain.
‘What does occur Is the freezing of wa-
ter vapor contained inside the engine,
‘and this prevents the oil from flowing.
‘The possibility of this occuring in the
engine equipped with this new inven-
tion has now been obviated. ‘The new
‘ofl pump has been given very thorough
tests,
Oil Filter Tests Show
Much Abrasive Material
‘Three interesting oll filter tests by
©, W. McKinley, research engineer,
showed that the oll filter removed as
much as one teaspoonful of abrasive
‘material in every 1,500 miles of driv-
ing; that wear with unfiltered oil was
five times more than with filtered oil,
and that fn 10,000 miles driving, the
oll filter removed -more than two
pounds of dirt, sludge and abrasive
‘matter from the oil, thus making serv-
feing of the filter necessary at this
‘alleage.
Spark Phsg and Contact
Points Must Be Correct
In the modern automobile enzine of
today, the importance of having the
‘spark plugs in first-class condition can-
not be over-emphasized, Eificient en-
xine operation is dependent upon good
ignation,
The spark plugs are equipped with
two electrodes, or poles, set in sch
@ manner that the electric current
must jump’ across 4 small gap from
fone to the other. In making (his jump,
a spark occurs. It is this spark whieh
ignites the mixture of gasoline and
air in the combustion chamber of the
cylinder,
A difference in the size of the gap
between the two electrodes will affect
the type of spark produced. It ts,
therefore, Important that this gap
should be inspected at least twice a
year and kept adjusted according to
the car instruction book.
In addition to the spark plugs, the
entire ignition system should also be
checked, particular attention being
pald to the distributor timing and to
the | condition and spacing of the
breaker contact points.
“Proper attention to these simple but
Important adjustments will protect the
‘motorist from ignition trouble—the
source of most motoring Ills.

this object in vlew superiluous frills
and farbelows are conspicuous by their
absence. Most of the gowns of dis-
tinetion are classics in simplicity.
In order to impart Individuatity to
formal dress, fashionists have turned
to novel and striking decolletage as a
solution to the problem. ‘The newest
gesture in the way of iow-cut necklines
is the “harness” decolletage. See It

“WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN
GOLD"!
Cleveland, O., Aug, 28th, 1925.
Hon, Harry 6. 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, dares, within the
limits of the law, to expose it
and, it possible smite it. You
and’ have frequently, during
the forty-two years since the
birth of The Gazette, been, as
the Scotch would say, like two
MeNeils, but when I find a man,
such as you, who consistently,
and persistently, through near-
ly half a century, puts his race
foremost in hig‘ life struggle,
I take off my hat to him, as
being a true friend ot ‘our
class, Long life to you and
The Gazette,
Yours for the right,
John P. Green,
(Former Member, Ohio State
Senate.)
HUMAN NATURE'S
KOULEST BLOT."
My ear {s pained,
My soul is sick with every
day's report
Ot wrong and outrage, with
Which the earth is’ filled,
There is no flesh in man’s ob-
durate heart,
It does not feel for man; the
natural bond
Ot brotherhood is severed as
the flax
‘That falls agunder at the touch
of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of
a skin
Not colored like his own; and
having power
To enforce the wrong, for auch
a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his
lawful prey,
‘Thus man devotes his brother,
and destroys:
‘Tis human nature's broadest
foulest blot,

18 IT ANY USE TO CON-
TEND FOR RIGHTS?
Colored Americans are the
only race, responsible mem-
bers of which are in favor of
submitting to discrimination
on the claim that thelr race
“always, will be discriminated
against.” The Jews are still
contending, after, over 1900
years of Universal discrimina-
tion, and are winning even
social rights today, The Irish
at home have contended for
700 years and are winning
because they will die rather
than eubmit, 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 have 0
“guts'."" The world respects
only those who reseut and re-
"sist proseriptions 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 thelr race to equal
} liberty, and forever resist de-
nial of rights in our native
| land, however long race dis-
erimination may continue, To
