Frank H. Nelson Lived Only Three Years in the South— Friendly Toward Our People We Made Mistake. Lakewood, O., Jan. 29, '31. Mr. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Mr. Smith:—I am in receipt of your unexpected attack in reference to certain errors of lexicography used in my book. While such advertised mistakes are beyond retrieve, I feel it my duty to write you personally as I did Mr. Herbert L. Taylor in reference to his similar objection. As I said to Mr. Taylor, I am sure he would not have made such violent statements had he been familiar with the type of work I have always done. In the Negro race, even to such an extent as insisting that the colored man be called by his last name which you realize in the South is never done. I am sorry that you have jumped to conclusions in your letter to Mr. Patt by intimating that I am a southerner. Such is far from the case. Such is how I do now only three years and do not share in the southern attitude toward the Negro in the slightest degree. Furthermore, I call your attention to the fact that I did not use the term "n—r" except as a quotation by one of your own race. Consequently your charge is unwarranted. I wish, however, to call your attention to the fact that both the term "darky" (which even the colored prefer) and "n—r" are both found in the dictionary, and I feel that if you would take up this matter with anyone, it should be with the proper source. In the second place, the term "colored" is a misnomer because it is unscientific. There is no color to black. Consequently, Mr. Smith what he posed to call your race? There be no disagreement among yourselves as to the proper names and titles, I hardly feel that there is a timely criticism that you have made, and I would suggest that more major issues be presented before you take an occasion to publish any attack upon a minister who is trying to render a service to all people, regardless of race or color. I am afraid that your methods are only injuring your best friends, and had you written to me personally about this matter, it would have been settled with much better feeling. I should be glad to confer with you further, but I must ask that you print this letter in your next issue. With brotherly love, FRANK H. NELSON, Minister. 1392 Warren Rd., Lakewood, O. Dear Reverend: Your letter just received and I am very glad indeed to have it. Of course you realize that the use of the mongrel term, "n—n" or even in a quotation, is a grievous insult to all of my people regardless of the person guilty of the lapse. Indeed, it was only a few days ago that I found it necessary to call the editor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer's attention to a similar offense which seldom occurs. My experience in the South has been practically limited to my first two years, I am pleased to say, but information from those residing there or ever been, however, that the best white people of that section have been using the last name of Afro-Americans in an ever increasing degree for many years. The impression that you were a "southerner" was gained from an announcement in a local daily paper to the effect that you "came here lately from Delroy Beach, Fla." I am very pleased indeed to learn that you are not a "southerner" and that your three years' residence in that section of the country has not changed in attitude toward my people "in the slightest degree." However, you are in error when you say that my people "prefer" the other mongrel term, "darky." As you know, the common and general use of slang and mongrel terms over a term of years are what secures their presence in the dictionary, an error of lexicography, doubtless, but that fact does not justify their use by intelligent people, at least. While I do not urge the use of the term, I do not urge the use of the word "whatever" unscintile or philological. My impression has always been that white was the absence of color, and that there was an abundance of color in black. In answer to your question, "What are we supposed to call your race," permit me to suggest the hyphenated word, Africo-American, or better still, its contraction, Afro-American. The latter I prefer and use just as often as possible in preference to the term, "colored." or that other objectionable word, "Negro." The official designation added upon my people by a pro-southern U. S. Congress, many years ago. There is really only one difference among my people as to the proper "name and title," and that is as to the use of the objectionable designation, "Negro." My dear sir, the unfortunate use of the mongrel term, "n — r," by your use in quotation while broadcasting is a "major issue" in its general effect upon all of my people, and a "timely criticism" of the same was absolutely necessary in order to prevent a recurrence. There is a similarity in that mistake and your reference to an "attack upon a minister," or anyone else making it, that I am sure you cannot fail to see. However, my people are anxious to increase the number of friends of the other group or class who are "trying to render a service to all people, regardless of race or color," and greatly regret any occurrence which compels a criticism of a minister or anyone else included in the number. An experience of fifty years in the newspaper business has long since convinced me that my friend is not the miracle our best friends," because the kindly and understandingly, an explanation such as I am herewith sending just as I feel sure you will after a careful and thoufful reading. The first information as to your address came with the receipt of your letter, this morning; so it was impossible to write you personally relative to the matter under discussion. The copy of my paper you finally received was sent twice in an effort to reach you. That it was needed in doing so with its incorrect wording and satisfaction I am sure to both of us. I shall be glad to have you call any week on Friday or Saturday afternoons, the period set aside for callers and conferences. Regretting exceedingly that it was necessary to disturb your feelings in the slightest and with very care for you and your church work. I am THAT BRANCH LIBRARY. THE CITIZEN'S RIGHTS LEAGUE Cleveland, Jan. 28, '31. The Public Library Board, Cleveland, O. Dear Members:—The attention of the Citizens' Rights league has been called to the fact that a branch library is about to be opened at 10112 Cedar Ave. After a careful survey by members of this organization, we are at a loss as to why this branch is being placed there, in view of the fact that an excellent branch library is just around the corner on Euclid Ave., within long distance. This latest branch has been located in an old store room and is by no means modern or a suitable place for any one to spend an afternoon or evening. The location is amid junk stores, repair shops and within stone-throwing-distance of a chicken house. We feel that it is an unnecessary expense to the tax-payers of Cleveland, as well as undesirable to the people of that neighborhood. A far more suitable place for a branch library would be at the corner of E. 86th St. and Cedar Ave., a central location. Signed, Louis Williams, Sec'y. Cleveland. O. Jan. 28. '31. Editors, The Press, The News and The Plain Dealer, Cleveland. O. Dear Sirs:—Preparations are being made in an old store room at 10112 Cedar Ave. to establish a branch library. This location is near the branch brand at 9999 Euclid Ave. and ought not to have been so placed. Why waste tax-payers' money in this fashion? If the library board wishes to establish a branch that will cater to the largest number of persons in that section why not place 1 at the corner of E. 868 St. and Cedar Ave., a much better location. There is no need of a branch library so close to the 9999 Euclid Ave. Walter E. Carey, Jr., 10611 Tacoma Ave., City. 'THE OLD RELIABLE' PLEASES! Crosswalth's Article on Liberian Slavery Praised—"Ghosts of the Past." Revere, Mass., Jan. 30, '31. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Friend: — I have just completed a careful reading of the Jan. 24th issue of The Gazette and find myself so pleased with the paper that mere words could not possibly think of the thoughts in my mind concerning it. It is my belief that the day is not far off when racial prejudice, inane bigotry, and primitive intolerance will be ghosts of the past. Frank R. Crosswalth's article on Liberian slavery stresses an important point and quite clearly expresses a popular sentiment on the topic of American slavery and the distressing economic and social conditions that are now passing for "good" political (mis) handling. Trusting that this will find a place in your valuable columns, I seal it with best wishes for The Gazette. THE INSIDE STORY Of the Threatened Mob Demonstra tion at Crestline and Bucyrus, Recently—The Resolutions —Local Notes. Crestline, O.—On Thursday night, Jan. 22, Walter and Blanton Rails stole fifteen chickens from a farmer near here. The next morning this was reported to the city officials by the man to whom Walter Rails had sold the fowls. Officers went immediately to Walter Ralls' home, on E. Bucyrus St., to place him under arrest. While they were at the back of the house he left thrush the front door. Three shots were fired at him by Marshall Johnson who was later called to the McCumber warehouse another lot of chickens. In the meantime Fred Voegelman, in a mile southeast of Crestline, had phoned the sheriff's office at Bucyrus, concerning the loss of his chickens, and Deputy Sheriff Otto Stiger was sent to Crestline from Bucyrus to help round up the thief. All morning and afternoon, Deputy Stiger and Marshall Johnson worked on the case with Walter Rails evading arrest on a comparatively trifling charge. He seemed determined not to submit to the he had previously been told that Walter had been killed on Marshall Johnson on a similar basis. She shot George Davenport was killed. This aroused a very hostile feeling toward our people of this, Crawford county, and mob violence was imminent. All of our people of Crestline were fearful. Some left and spent the night in Mansfield. There upon the mayor issued orders that every one of our homes in this city be searched for fire-arms. This caused the situation to become more serious. But our pastor, Rev. N. H. Hardrick, sensed the situation and resolution which resulted in a much bettering immediately among members of both groups or races. The resolution: To the relatives of George Davenport, deceased: "Turner Chapel A. M. E. church and the First Baptist church of Crestline and the Progressive League of Crawford county wish to express to you their deepest sympathy in these hours of sorrow. We regret greatly the tragic and untimely death of the courageous and conscientious officer who gave his life in the performance of duty. But he who made the sea and established the waters and caused men to become the sons of God, is able to take care of you in these hours of sorrow. "Resolved, that a copy of this resolution be sent to the relatives of the deceased to press and to the Cleveland Gazette "Signed, Turner Chapel A. M. E. Church, by N. H. Hardrick; The First Baptist Church, by C. Wood; The Progressive League of Crawford County, by Ben Wilkerson." This resolution was immediately followed by one from the other group, with thanks to Rev. Hardrick for his timely action: "We, the members of the Crawford County Ministerial Union, regret exceedingly the death of our sheriff, Mr. George Davenport, and realizing the presence in our community of a hostile feeling toward the Negro, wish to express to our Christian brethren of that race our sympathy because of the occurrence of an act which is deplored alike by all Christian people regardless of race; and we wish to express our confidence in local Negro leadership in guiding the people in the observance of the law; and we commit ourselves to the principle that a race should not be held accountable for the vicious deeds of unrepresentative individuals.

JOHN HAWKINS' LEAGUE STARTS AT THE TOP AND IS WORKING TOWARD THE BOTTOM. A New Way to Organize a Negro Republican National League—Both Major Political Parties Adopted Southern Policy in Its Treatment of of Our People—Lincoln and the Republican Party. (Special to The Gazette) Jersey City, N. J.—The National Negro Republican League through its president, Dr. John R. Hawkins, is sending out blanks seeking membership. It is striving to secure one hundred thousand members so as to be a force in bringing to pass things political and civil for Negroes. It seems to us that when this league was in process of formation there should have been a national women and women from all sections of the country to discuss and settle upon certain principles before any organization was formed and officers elected. This nowever may have been an oversight on the part of those founding this league. The personnel is not set forth, neither the complete roster of officers. Even the treasurer is unknown. These people are of some effective organization, which produce results, other than a portion of the "slush fund" of national campaigns, is very necessary. At present the two major political parties have no outstanding departures that make them political enemies. In and out of Congress Republicans and Democrats exist only in name. Both parties seem to have the purpose to give our citizens as the purpose to approve Both parties seem to have adopted the southern policy towards our citizens. The present administration is eloquent in its failures to recognize, to an appreciable extent, the Negro. Since this league has been formed, and is not dependent upon members of them, they are sending membership blankets to the organization, it would seem to us that "the cart has been put before the horse." First, the Republican party to which this league pledges allegiance may satisfy the people of the District of Columbia but it does not satisfy our voters of the states. For any party to retain or acquire the rule over this nation, it must win the majority of states through their electoral votes. To do this the states must be able to win the majority of its voting districts our voters of the states get any recognition they must get it through the party organizations of their respective states. It is their business to see to it that their state organizations give them representation in the councils of the party and these representatives must get for their group what other representatives get for theirs. If the Senators and Congressmen from states where our votes count, did their duty to Negroes as they do to other groups, does it share of federal and state patronage. Even the President of the U. S. must recognize the wishes of Senators and Congressmen. If the President is hostile toward any group of citizens and wishes not to recognize them, Senators and Congressmen can bring him around. To do this, strong state organizations are necessary. When the voting states have these organizations, then the way is clear for the various state organizations for that purpose, representative chosen for that purpose, formulate a national organization whose membership is made up of these members of these voting states. At present our voters of the North, East and West are confronted with a very grave problem. This world-wide depression has struck them in New York as hard as it has struck those in Arkansas. In this country where machines are supplanting men in the industries, this has caused them himself on the outside. This laborer has laborer on the "unskilled common laborer." He is wholly dependent upon others to care for him. Political parties that can use his vote to an advantage will vie in helping him now so as to get his help when they call. For Negroes of these sections mentioned, to tie themselves hand and foot to any political party is unwise and shortsighted. The exigencies of the hour must determine how and when the man should vote. The Republican party that would help elect a Democrat to the U. S. Senate is nothing like the Republican party of Mark Hanna and McKinley. Let us not foreswear ourselves, but by political bargain- 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 compari-son with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEW-IESST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans.

The influence of the South is too strong in the present Republican line-up, as a party, for the Negro to swear allegiance to the door. The trouble lies neither at the door of the President of the U. S. nor at those of our Senatorial and Congressional representatives but at the door of the Negro who hasn't [Name] (Rev.) William A. Byrd. sense enough to minimize his differences and come together to secure his best interests both in state and national affairs. The National Republican League sponsored by Mr. Hawkins may do some good but we are afraid that when it sells out to the Republican party now it handicaps itself and our people. White groups are not selling to any party but are usurping both names because of the race. Out of the Republican party, as now managed, Negroes get southern exclusion from office, elimination from party councils and the lynchers' rope without any real effort to stop it, a little "slush" money during elections and a "leadership" that preaches acquiescence in present conditions. If, Abraham Lincoln came to Washington and beheld his party, he would not know it. Those of us who have acquired of the Lincoln spirit are unwilling to swear allegiance to the Blease spirit of South Carolina. Then, too, one or two offices, such as a minister plenipotentiary to Africa, and possibly record of deeds of the planet of Columbia, "buy not mill of colored voters." If Mr. Hawkins is ready to modernize his league and eliminate the unwise part of it, he no doubt will have many to join him. (Rev.) W. A. Byrd. RAP ROSENWALD FUND. Our N. Y.

See Crestline Jetter elsewhere in this paper. i Cecil L. Rowelette of Detroit, our candidate for the Michigan Senate, was defeated by 31 votes because our people there failed to support his candidacy as they should have. “Twas ever thus! =i ‘A few of our students of Creigh- ton university, Omaha, Neb., sitnply had to have a “jim-crow” club to remind them of “down home,” so effected the organization of “The Creighton Colored Cooperative club,” the first.in the history of Creighton aniversity, Lord, have mercy. So Congressman and Mrs. Oscar DePriest of Chicago have been prac- ticing social equelity in the White House with President and Mrs. Her- bert Hoover and their most distin- guished guests, local and foreign, and, too, right under the noses of those southern “crackers,” U. 5. Senators Robinson and Caraway of Arkansas, Heflin of Alabama, Blease ‘of South Carolina, Pat Harrison of Mississippi and others. Really, this 4s too bad, Isn't it? Let us have prayers for them. The “crackers,” we mean. Te oss EO ‘What a pity it was that Gov. My- ers Y. Cooper didn’t appoint Ex- State Senator John P. Green, our leading local attorney, judge of the ‘Municipal court? It would have topped off beautifully his more than 50 years’ practice at the local bar. Backed by “The Old Reliable” Ga- ote, the Senator was endorsed for the position by Mr. Andrew Squire, wealthiest and leading attorney of the city for many years, Judge Willis Vickery of the Court of Ap- peals, Judges Pearson, Baer, Ew- ing and others of the local Common Pleas court. Nearly 50 years ago, ‘Atty. Green was elected a Justice of the Peace, serving for nine years. —iti—— “THE MAN BIT THE DOG.” The great Horace Greeley once said that “if a dog bit a man, it wasn’t news; but if a man bit a dog, it was news.” Lynching “Negroes,” long years ‘ago, got so common that the publi- cation of such an occurrence in the @aily newspapers of today is like publishing the fact that “‘a dog bit & man.” But the lynching of a white man in the northwest, a few days ago, or indeed anywhere else fn the North, is like “a man biting dog.” It is out of the ordinary and mows that (to be consistant) should at least be featured with big display page-headlines on the first page instead of on an inside page of the daily newspapers of the coun- try, especially since it is common practice to so feature the lynchings of “Negroes.” —i-— ‘TIME TO STOP IT. Be sure to read carefully our Dr. Wm. A. Byrd’s very interesting and iuminating article in this paper. ‘That John R. Hawkins, Emmett J. Scott and other Washington, D. C., “Negroes” have the nerve at ‘this time to start organizing to boost President Hoover's candidacy for re- nomination and re-election, in’ the face of his notorlus mistreatment of the race, is really astounding. Then too, Hawkins, Scott and their Wash- ington, D. ©. co-workers are Afro- ‘Americans without votes who led the same sort of movement to boost the nomination ‘and election of President Calvin Coolidge, another Chief Executive who proved any- thing but friendly to our people thruout his near two administra- tions. As Dr. Byrd well suggests, indirectly st is true, it is high time that those Washington, D. C. Afro- ‘Americans who are again “putting the cart before the horse” were stopped by our active state leaders {hruout the country, members of the race who vote. It seems that they are willing to do almost any- thing political and at almost any sacrifice to the race in order to keep themselves in the political Nmelight and pose as “national” leaders of our people. It is high time to stop it. it THOSE INSULTING TERMS. The Rey. Frank H. Nelson's “lapse” was undoubtedly due to his brief residence in the South, where the use of the mongrel and very ob- Jectionable terms, referred to in our letter to him, is so very common. And yet that fact does not justity the use of them, by any intelligent person, in broadcasting, or in any such public way, even when quot- ing. The minister undoubtedly knows this mow. -We would re- spectfully call his attention to the letter of the “Question Editor” of thé Plain Dealer, anent this very thing, published elsewhere in this paper. Will Roger's “lapse” in his talk over the radio, Saturday evening, for the drought sufferers is open to the same criticism, and more, be- cause he was not quoting. That he recognized the mistake he had made was evidenced in the fact that he did not use the very insulting mon- grel term a second time but used the term, “colored,” thereafter in referring to our peopte.

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 Clvil Rights law which the edi tor had enacved 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, eat: ing house, barber-shop, public con- veyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicabie alike to ail eltizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facill- ties or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days for more thau ‘Winety days, or both, Sec, 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay ‘not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundreds dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov. ered in any court of competent jur- isdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law nas repeatedty 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, AN APOLOGY ACCEPTED! Cleveland, Jan, 31, '31. Mr. Walton Banks, 226 W. Superior Ave., City. Dear Sir:—Your letter to the edi- tor has been turned over to this de- partment. I am very sorry indeed that we used a word that offended our Negro readers, for really no offense was in- tended.’ The way the word was used in our answer to the question about the Underground Railroad was mere- ly quoting what some one said, back in the '50’s, about the way the term “underground railroad” came into use, T agree with you that in——x" tg an ugly word, and we shall never use it again, even to quote what some one else said. It isn't the Plain Dealer's poliey to offend any of its readers, and I hope you will accept the question editor's apology for hurting a good Plain Dealer reader.

The ROUNDER The county commissioners have authorized Anton B. Sprosty, custodian of county buildings, to hire eighteen persons to take care of the new jail and criminal court building. Six of these, including three elevator operators, and one telephone operator, and two watchmen have already been employed, and the other twelve will be, in a day or two. How many of these eighteen appointments are and will be members of the race? We feel sure that Republican County Commissioners Jack Harris and Walter Cook will see that we get what we are entitled to. Read carefully the following: Dr. Joe T. Thomas informed The Rounder, Tuesday, that Councilman Herman Finkle told him in Council Chamber, Monday night, in the hearing of Councilman Clayborne George, that Councilman Payne, Bundy and George selected our boy from the Army, and he became an interne at City hospital in July; that he (Thomas) immediately asked George if they did, and he said, "yes," and that he did so because he didn't know that any Cleveland boys were applying for entrance. He also said that the first he knew of any Cleveland boy's application was when Dr. Thomas jumped on him" about it. That was last George said he didn't know of our local boys' applications, and yet he had to pass on all the boys before the selection was made. Dr. Thomas also informs The Rounder that five of our girls were in the class at the Nurse Training School, beginning last September. They were Miss Cora McDonald, who was dropped because she failed in four subjects; and the four girls who are now there—Dorothy Davis, Mary Collins, Edna Wooley and Grace Rice. We also have two graduate nurses employed at City hospital now. Dr. Thomas says that Anna Larne, 2188 E. 39th St., and Othella Shaw, 2941 E. 72d St., were to have been admitted, to the City hospital nurse training school, Jan. 26, '31; that Willa Beybe, 2761 Eclibid blvd., Cleveland Heights, made application but was not admitted for physical Carroll Ave, St. Paul, Minn., was not accepted, her educational standing being too low, Georgia Loving, 623 S. Evans Ave., Evansville, Ind., will be accepted if she sends in her credentials; Laura Cordell, 2190 E. 49th St., made application, and Grace Olden, 2293 E. 89th St., accepted, but have not sent in their credentials. Both should do so at once. Miss Olden should answer the superintendent's letter, at once. She should send her letter, a year, on account of not being old enough. But now all that is necessary for her to do is to send in her credentials. Josephine Cherry, 211 Sherman St, Lisbon, was turned down. Hazel Clark, Phillis Wheatley Association, 4300 Cedar Ave. City, and Benna B.

A large vintage car is parked in the background. The floor is covered with toy cars of various sizes and colors. At first glance one would take this to be an exhibit of Christmas toys, but instead they are models of standard size automobiles which help to facilitate matters for the salesmen of an automobile salon on the Unter den Linden, Berlin. PROPHETS SCORE WITH COLOR ERA Coming of Vividly Painted Cars Presaged Time of Pretty Automobiles. Prophets who declared that the coming of the vividly-colored car pressaged an era of well-kent automobiles that would be without a parallel are beginning to sit back with an "I told you so" smile. For a glance at the traffic stream in almost any city will reveal that the prophets were just about as nearly right as they could be. And the laugh is very much upon those who maintained that black was the only practical car finish and that the light and fragile tints would age quickly and become eye-sores within a few months. Car of Today The car that is well groomed today is the one with the flashy, attractive lacquer finish. The run-down automobile is the one with the dull drab enamel finish of an earlier era. The difference, as many see it, is not so much in the body finish as in its effect upon the motorist. The stimulus to keep the vividly-colored car vivid is not to be questioned. In the case of the darker hues, this impulse on the owner's part often is lacking. The defenders of the dull shades reckoned without the ease with which the lacquer finishes lent themselves to cleaning. With the modern car, cleaning largely is a matter of keeping the body free from dust, and giving it an occasional polish which lasts for weeks and, sometimes, months. Furthermore, such a polish may be applied in a few minutes and with a small expenditure of energy in contrast to the hours of time and physical effort involved in the same task a few years ago. Black Is Gaining. Incidentally, black is returning into popularity, merely because it is "different." This shade, in lacquer, used most frequently with a striping of red, attracts as much attention as a vivid green dld in 1923. Give Rim Bolts Grease to Prevent All Binding When you have the urge to do a little work about the car that will be well worth while and which you will appreciate when the time comes to make a tire change, take off the rim bolt nuts, apply a little heavy grease to the threads and replace them. Graphite grease is very good for the purpose. When the time comes to change the tire you will be very thankful that you are not confronted with rusty bolts on which the nuts are so tightly frozen that they cannot be removed except by extreme and inconvenient measures. Castor Oil Gains Favor as Automobile Lubricant Castor oil, largely through the effort of a woman chemist, is replacing-mineral oil as a lubricant for automobile and airplane motors throughout France, according to the Paris correspondent of the American Chemical society. "The cultivation of castor oil plants has increased in Morocco and Algeria in the last three or four years," the correspondent says. "The results obtained have been very satisfactory and castor oil is used to an ever-increasing extent. It is hoped that mineral oils will be practically discarded for lubricating purposes as time goes on. Down Hill in Second In descending a long steep hill, it is advisable to shift into second or low speed and descend with the clutch engaged, and with the throttle closed, thus avoiding the necessity of depending on the brakes alone. The motor serves as a brake under these conditions. This is especially effective if the spark is cut out. An experienced driver will avoid using the brake more than necessary. Common Motor Troubles Are Caused by Carbon Automotive engineers state that 81 per cent of common motor troubles are directly caused by the formation of carbon in the combustion chamber of automobile engines. Carbon is introduced into a major largely by the burning of excess lubricating oil. Too much oil is almost as bad as not enough because of this. When the oil is burned the residue, mixed with dust and dirt from the air forms a hard finity mass that is gradually fused onto the cylinder head and the piston head, under the valves and ultimately between the piston rings. Once a deposit is formed, more carbon accumulates and aggravates the condition. The more it is subjected to heat, the harder and more brittle it becomes. Pieces break off and often grind away the cylinder walls, allowing more oil to be sucked into the combustion chamber, and more oil means more carbon. It is important to use the proper motor oil and not too much of it. It is necessary to see that the motor doesn't pump oil. If there is carbon in a motor it should be removed, and then the motor kent clean. Purchase Afforded for Removal of High Valves The chief difficulty in removing valves of the overhead type by the aid of a conventional lifter is the absence of anything against which to rest the tool.

J. Once every one laughed at the idea of driving thirty miles an hour; now every one abhors the idea of having to do it. After the car has been washed, test the brakes before driving any distance, otherwise a serious accident may occur. Both the choke and throttle should be opened wider when the temperature is low and engine starting conditions more difficult. A noisy fan is due to worn bearings, loose rivets on the blades, or fan out of running balance. The latter is caused by bent blades. The hold-down bolts which fasten the body to the chassis should always be kept tight. Loose hold-down bolts cause distortion of door openings and squeaks. If fuel in the gas tank gets too low the sediment which collects in the bottom of the tank may be pumped into the mechanism and damage it seriously. Eighteen states now have statutes making it unlawful to deface highway signs or directional markers, according to the American Automobile association. Setting breaker points properly should always be left to the skilled mechanic. The average motorist who tries to make this adjustment usually does more harm than good.

L TO WEAR WHITE HAT AND GLOVES WIDE WORLD PHOTO BLACK-and-white, which has been so outstanding this many a day, yea, this many a season, has a rival—navy with an accent of white, if you please. Emphasis is placed on this new color alliance throughout fashion displays both of resort wear and for spring. The importance of navy-and-white is sensed in the fabric sections, in the realm of things knitted, likewise the new spring coats; also frocks and the blouse together with millinery and all the charming accessories so necessary to chic are singing a "spring song" of navy-and-white. Those clever little flat fur neckpieces which have been adding such a fetching "touch of white" to winter suits, coats and ensembles are going to repeat their triumphs on the new style program. The expected prominence of the collarless coat has spurred designers on to create fashions in fur neckwear for spring of intriguing design. Bright navy blue is the color of the coat pictured. With it milady wears a white galyak stole or scarf if you prefer to design this chic little neckpiece. As a matter of fact, however, the word "stole" has come into usage again—revived from the fashion lore of days of yore. The color scheme for this modish spring costume is completed with a darker blue felt hat and dark blue kid shoes. By the way, if you are choosing for your next frock one of the many navy-and-white silk prints which are being so widely heralded for immediate wear and for spring, be sure to invest in a pair of navy kid shoes to wear with it. Matching footwear is a de- IT'S FASHIONABLE TO WEAR WHIT TO FAIL to respond to the call of the mode which bids one wear white accessories with one's winter costume, is to "pass up" one of the most flattering fashions of the moment. As to the custom of wearing white hat, gloves and purse with the summer costume, there is nothing unusual in that—it is to be expected. However, for white millinery and other details to accent the midwinter daytime costume, this is a matter of real news. The vogue had its beginning in the early part of the season and has been gaining in popularity right along, until at this moment the smartest dressed women are expressing no end of enthusiasm for white chapeaux (usually simple little white felts) which are often supplemented with cunning white fur neckpieces plus in some instances a tiny white muff, not forgetting a white gardenia boutonniere, for it is part of the play. In the picture the white-with-color scheme is carried out down to the slightest detail, even to the green woolen of the frock being flecked with white. A particular feature is the broad white suede belt which matches Buy Your Copier or an Acqu tail which must not be overlooked in assembling one's new spring wardrobe. In regard to the novel fur neckpieces whose mission is to enhance the new coats and jackets and such, the range of spring fur shades in such petries as galyak, sheared lapin and sheared lamb, is sufficiently diversified so as to either match exactly, blend or sharply contrast with the costume coloring. Pastels which show new versions of cream, beige and gray, are important in addition to black and white. In order to achieve a perfectly harmonized unit, fashion demands that the handbag, gloves, millinery, footwear and such accessories as the now-so-fashionable belt be meticulously related in color to the fur neckpiece.

Notice the width of this belt, for the wider belts are newest. Even when the tweed street suit or ensemble is strictly tailored, and without white fur, a chic white felt is worn together with white goat-skin gloves. White headwear worn with the black coat or suit which is collared with white is proving an intriguing theme especially at this time of the year when one's winter costume seems to demand a freshening accent. Quite frequently there is a touch of black on the hat so as to successfully unify the costume. Perhaps it is a wee feather which sounds the black note on white, or a bow of velvet or belting ribbon or a bit of fur. The white felt hat which is trimmed in black galayal or black caracul or similar thin flat belts is outstanding. White fur sets consisting of beret, muff and neckpiece, enhance not only stunning afternoon costumes made of black velvet, but they are sponsored with cloth suits, either black or of any of the many novelty woolen which are so popular this season.

Beauty, Brains, Business Sense Are Sometimes Found Together McCormack to Return to Radio With Songs New to America Tom Thumb Golfers Ask Jones For Advice on Pigmy Courses Send In Your Subscriptions Barbara Gould Invades Paris to Establish American Methods of Beauty Culture BEAUTY, brains and business sense sometimes go hand in hand—but not often. One of the rare people to possess these three qualities is Barbara Gould, a young American business-woman, who is seemingly belying business acumen by invading Europe to teach continental women how to achieve loveliness of their American sisters that freshness of complexion that is so much admired by European men. Miss Gould is not being altruistic. On the contrary, she contends that there is a real field for the expert who can teach, and prove, that the care of the face and figure need not be a complicated ritual but merely a short daily treatment that soon becomes a habit. She is doing what so many industrial concerns have done, finding a new market to sell her wares. And, though Europe is generally considered the cradle of beauty and art from thinking that her invasion might be termed "carrying coals to Newcastle." "In Berlin you will find that good old English dish, ham and eggs," Barbara Gould said. "Spanish olives and American cocktails go together at the Ritz bar in Paris, so why not an American beauty salon? In my travels abroad I spent European women will painstakingly assemble the most entrenching ensemble that would make any woman green with envy, but—and what a big but—the they will probably have forgotten to 'groom' their faces!" European women, Miss Gould points out, have a real admiration for the skins of American women, and seem to think that they possess the ability to enable them to be so overestimating. JOHN McCORMACK, who takes his radio seriously and is only infrequently heard over the air, discloses that he will sing two unusual irish melodies that have won great favor abroad but which he never before has sung before a radio audience, when he gives his first 1931 radio concert as one of the Maxwell House-General Foods company, he be broadcast at 9:30 P. M. (EST) Thursday, February 5, over the NBC-WJZ network-wide chain. Mr. McCormack will start the second half of this all-English program with a still-unpublished song entitled "What An Irishman Means By Machree." The music for this song was composed by the versatile Ernest Torrence, who before he became a noted motion picture director, was known as a singer of prominence as well as a musician. The words were written by Professor Francis P. Donnelly of Fordham University. Perhaps no word in all Irish folk lore has been used with greater frequency or said with warmer affection than the word "machree." Great songs have been written around it and Ireland's great tenors, from McCormack down, have popularized it throughout Europe and America. In this number Mr. McCormack will try to make clear just "What an Irishman means by Machree." He tried out the new song on his trombone in the British roles during his recent visit there and the number was invariably greeted with loud applause. He feels certain it will succeed over the radio as well. BOBBY JONES, world's greatest golfer, since the inauguration of his series of weekly broadcasts for the Lambert Company, has been inundated by demands from midget golf addicts for advice on how to putt through barrels, chip over golf holes, and approach through crooked hollow logs. "It's all very well." writes an admirer from the west coast, "to tell about 300 yard drives and iron shots over tall and stately elms. I'm thrilled by these intimate stories of the greatest plays of all time. But I'd also like to know the proper method of play on the pigmy courses, which require a technique all their own. There are million and million of obstacles they all would be thrilled by some suggestions from the greatest golfer of all on how to improve their games." Whether Bobby has ever played over Liliputian links is not known, and some of those who have written to him indicate their belief that perhaps the pint-size courses would prove his undoing more than the four mile championship affairs to which he is accustomed. Bobby broadcasts over the NBC red network every Wednesday evening from 8:00 to 8:15 (EST). He has completely overcome the nervousness that marked his first appearance before the microphone. M. BARBARA GOULD Carries Coals to Newcastle? fresh and lovely. The beauty of American complexions is no myth, she continues, and there is only one secret, that any woman can learn in a minute. "It is a simple thing to learn." Miss Gould said, "but it takes real courage to follow it out. The secret can be summed up in two words—constant care. A little treatment every day, varying the method with passing years, is all that is needed." Miss Gould's arrival in Paris was the occasion of the first international sponsored broadcast to be heard in America. She was officially welcomed by Cecile Sorel, France's greatest actress, and her most beautiful women, and Andre de Fouquieres, the Grover Whalen of Paris. Return to Radio New to America JOHN McCORMACK Another song will be "The Garden Where the Praties Grow," an old Irish air newly arranged by Samuel Little. This song is full of Irish wit and humor and is one which Mr. McCormack loves to sing. In connection with this song it is worthy of note that Mr. Little accompanied John McCormack at his first notable concert in London in March, 1907, which started the Irish tenor on his road to success. At the concert on February 5, Mr. McCormack will be accompanied by Mr. Edwin Schneider. A.

Subscriptions After Receive after 1930 THIS good looking chap was kind enough to help us show that lounging pajamas for men need not look effeminate. We've been contending for a long time that there's no reason why the huskest of males shouldn't be comfortable in those all too few hours available for lounging around the house. The trouble has seemed to be that so many men's shops show just a bit too nice-nice looking lounging pajamas. Now there are available a very masculine looking assortment of "loafing pajamas". They aren't silk either—for that seems, to be effeminate in the eyes of many men. They are made of a soft, strong ducked cotton, which has a perceptible, but not startling, luster, and which, remarkably, can be washed. Outfits like this should be a great saving to the family pressing bills for the material only wrinkles under the most insistent and prolonged lounging. They're easy to get into. Here's another tip—you needn't wear a tie. They're good taste without it. J ONE of the gamenst, but most exclusive Fifth Avenue houses told us the other day that their cotton underwear department sales had increased three quarters during the last year. "Everybody who knows the difference between good taste and bad and wants to spend all her time in evening gowns, negliges, wears cotton," they said. Our wise informant went on to explain that with the growing fashion importance of cotton clothes the need of wearing appropriate underwear has naturally resulted. The old one is fine fashioned, clumsy cotton underwear is not be had in these exclusive shops for street, sports and spectator sports wear. Here one discovers—and most inexpensively, too—newer, softer, finer cottons, particularly the new durered cottons which are now slightly next the skin. With their introduction, woman's lingerie drawer, a novel underwear term has come to life. It is called "feather weight"—words, it is true, once applied to the pugilistic ring, but now much more appropriately used to describe the way the knitters are handling soft, lustrous durered cotton of the finer knitting it in soft flat or novelty mesh knits. Pastel colors as well as white prevail. "Negro wit and humor as set forth in the writings of Octavus Roy Cohen, Hugh Wiley, Irvin S. Cobb and others, together with the interpretation of Negro characteristics in the famous broadcastings by Amos 'n Andy, are only a portrayal of certain phases of Negro life, so overdrawn that they do the colored population as a whole an almost irreparable injustice," says Dr. John Louis Hill, N.
