It is aimed at the Negro as a man, a gentleman and a scholar. The Negro in ignorance and rags, meets no resistance. He is rather liked. He is often the object of only when he acquires education, property and influence, only when he attempts to rise and be a man among men that he invites repression.

GREEN! Lester Walton Says He Is "Optimistic at Eighty-Six" and It Is True—A Tribute. A few weeks ago we had occasion to refer to an editorial tribute paid to the Hon. John P. Green, the dean of the Cleveland bar, by the Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer, together with an article taken from The Gazette, giving some details as to Mr. Green's legal labors and his literary relaxations. In commenting upon these matters, The Age innocently suggested that if Editor Harry C. Smith of The Gazette had supplied the name of Mr. Green's favorite French author, we would have a valuable tip as to the literary tastes of an octogenarian who retains his optimism after sixty years in the law courts. Mr. Smith obligingly sent the clipping from The Age to Mr. Green and the latter responded with the following corrections and addenda: My eighty-sixth birthday will be April 2, 1931, not September 30, 1930. Mr. Samuel Mather and I were classmates in old Central High School in 1866-69. Mr. John G. Rockefeller and I are correspondents, but we were never schoolmates. Labor Day was celebrated a year or two before I procured the legalization of it. I was called the "Daddy of the Day," however, and fested on one of the hills around Cincinnati, by the high officials of labor. I have tried fifty-five murder cases, had but one execution, 1874, hung. The title of the French book translated by me is Cleeron et ses Amies, Etude Sur la Societe Romaine du Temps de Caesar, par Gaston Boissier, Cicero and His Pursuit of Roman Society in the Times Julien. We must thank both Mr. Green and Editor Smith for yielding to a pardonable curiosity as to the literary pursuits that could furnish relaxation for a man who had lived beyond the limit of four score years and spent three score in the practice of losing his optimism. One would not task of undertaking the defense of more than fifty people accused of killing, would have a disturbing effect on one's faith in human nature and make the advocate an incurable pessimist. But we find Mr. Green rejoicing but that one of his clients accused of murder paid the cruel penalty, and that as far back as 1874, when hanging was in fashion. Perhaps the study of Cicero and his friends had the effect of providing a contrast, in the pictures given of Roman society in those early days, sufficient to assure the present reader that the present adjudged. This may have contributed to Mr. Green's optimism. However, considering that he survived a period as lawmaker in the Ohio Legislature, besides serving for some time in a Federal position at Washington, we must conclude that Mr. Green blessed with a philosophic Government with which he accepted the best and the worse from human nature with equanimity. Whether the study of Marcus Tullius Cicero, who was a Roman orator, statesman and man of letters, contributed to this state of mind is a matter for conjecture. The choice of such a work for translation is not without its significance. The lesson for the average man, however, is that outside of his daily vocation, he should have some hobby or recreation to preserve his optimism and faith in human nature, whether his work is mending shoes or saving souls. In the meantime we take off our hat, to Mr. Green, not merely for SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS having attained a ripe old age but for having preserved his optimism and having kept active and occupied Y. Age editorial. March 14, 1931. ADVISES CO-OPERATION Upon the part of All Our Organizations As Well As Individuals in the Fight for Jobs. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: — A number of our local citizens have taken upon themselves the task of soliciting jobs for members of our group in stores where our people's trade are harnessed year in and out without concession in the way of employment to even a delivery boy. The project has been launched by Rev. B. J. Prince, pastor of Messiah Baptist church. This is a fine spirit. But the committee should know that it takes co-operative power, and a lot of it, to make an impression upon business men, when it comes to jobs that they never had before, especially during these hard times! I am mindful of the fact that there are a number of organizations in this city doing the same kind of work, and have been for some time. Just how much good they have accomplished this writer is unable to state. But in my opinion and in the opinion of a number of leading men of our group whom I have conversed with, it would be wise for those who are heading the drive to call together leaders of all organizations who are doing such work and form a league or committee or whatsoever they may call it that voice of sentiment of as many chirped civil political organizations as they can get. A committee of men, with some practical knowledge of business and trained in the art and tact of approach, should be sent to all business places where our people spend their money without any reciprocity being shown in return. It should be remembered that business men weigh your strength before you approach them. They know who is behind you, and how many. They know when it is a matter of an organization thirsty for a little publicity or personal credits. And, as a matter of fact, all organizations soliciting in the same field, awake when one matches out. The result is that several business men within a week, all claiming to be representatives of the race, and the likelihood is that the man who operates a business will conclude that it is all "the bunk." Even if all business places and firms would open up their doors to us the battle will have just begun. We, as Afro-Americans, had betteromb the city first for men and women with intelligence whom we can recommend and depend upon to make good on the job.

LE COPY FIVE CENTS NE IN GRAND OPERA SEASON. The Eighth Annual Spring Festival in Cleveland of the Metropolitan Opera Company of N. Y. City to Be the Greatest Ever—Best Singers in the World to Render the Most Tuneful Operas. Never before in the history of the great opera houses of the world has there been such a galaxy of stars in so many wonderful operas and all within six days, as will be presented by the Metropolitan Opera Company of New York in Cleveland's big public hall the week of April 27 to May 2. That music lovers of Cleveland and of all Ohio realize this was shown by the huge advance mail-order demand for tickets and by the continued season sale this week. The single seat sale opens April 6, at Ion & Healy's 1228 Huron Road and today at agent's offices in more than 30 cites of the state. Beginning with the gala opening night, when the golden-voiced Rosa Ponselle sings a new role, that of "Violetta" in Verdi's great opera, "La Traviata," which she sang this year at England's "Convent Gardens," to the curtain with Lily Pons as the pathetic heroine of "Lucia di Lammermoor" on Saturday night, the season is full of great stars, great ones, and great stars, with Willy Ponselle in Traviata on Monday, April 27, will be the great-voiced Glacomo Lauril-Powell, Lawrence Tibbett and Minnie Egener. On Tuesday night Cleveland will have its first chance A ROSA PONSELE and MARION TELVA in "NORMA" to hear Maria Jeritza, great Viennese soprano, in her greatest role of "Tosca" in her singing Georges Thill and Lawrence Tews. She will sing again on Thursday night, in the title role of "Carmen." Lily Pons makes her local debut on Wednesday night with Lucrezia Bori in "Mignon," and the cast includes Gigli, Rothier, Bada and others of note. Miss Pons, newest star of the Metropolitan, is the sensation of the season and is a French soprano, she will be heard later in the week in two more operas. Miss Ponselle will be heard on Friday night in her greatest role, that of the priestess, "Norma." With her will be Marion Telva, Armand Tokatany and others. The Friday matinee is "Rigoletto." Lily Pons in the role which brought the certain calls at the Metropolitan in New York this spring, and with Gigli, Swarthout, Rothier and a host of others. Deems Taylor's newest American opera, sung in English by the original New York cast which created the opera this February, will be given on Saturday afternoon. This is "Pearl's Serenade" and the principal parts are sung by Bori, Edward Johnson, Lawrence Tibbett and Marion Telva, together with more than twenty other "speaking" parts. Saturday night, the great week closes with Lily Pons, in the name role, in "Lucia Lalmermoor," with Gigli, Danise, Nottemoor, which was the opera in which she sheared her sensational debut at the Metropolitan this year.

SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1931. SENATOR KING WELCOMED! According to a dispatch, Sunday, to the daily newspapers of the country from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, U. S. Senator and Mrs. Wm. H. King of Utah received a rousing welcome when they arrived there, Sunday, for a ten-day visit. It wasn't so, a year or two ago, when the Senator, a Democrat, was refused permission to even enter that country by the "American Occupation," U. S. Naval control of the country, because in speeches in the U. S. Senate he had helped to expose the outrageous mistreatment of natives of that country by U. S. marines and "American Occupation" officials. The change in the 'attitude of the government of Haiti, brought about by the recent election of a new president, is undoubtedly responsible for the proper treatment, Sunday, of a U. S. Senator accompanied by his wife. The officials of the "American Occupation" and a large number of U. S. marines in Haiti are "crackers" (from the southern half of this country). This explains very much indeed of the mistreatment the natives of that country have had to suffer during the past dozen or more years. President Herbert Hoover could order the immediate withdrawal of the U. S. Naval Control from Haiti with much credit to himself and this country. The "American Occupation" there cannot be justified from any legal (international or other) viewpoint but is simply a case (pure and simple) of the stronger dominating the weaker. "THE METROPOLITAN." We are featuring Cleveland's Grand Opera season, its eighth annual spring festival, because there are so many of our people in this community, and section of Ohio, who are musicians or love music even if they are not vocalists or instrumentalists. The output of the Metropolitan Opera Co. of N. Y. City, both from vocal and instrumental viewpoints, is the, very acme of all music the world over, and all of our people financially able to do so, especially those to whom we refer in the foregoing, ought not to miss hearing at least one of the operas to be rendered in this city in Public Auditorium during the week, beginning April 27 and ending May 2. You can't miss it if you hear any one of the eight exceptionally tuneful operas to be rendered. LET'S BE FAIR Louis A. Williams, secretary of the Citizens' Rights League of Cuyahoga County, in a communication published elsewhere in this paper, offers a very good suggestion or two to those in charge of the "Spend Your Money Where You Can Work" movement, headed by Rev. and Mrs. Boston J. Prince of this city. Mr. Williams might also have said, and truthfully too, that while this is not the best time to put forth such efforts, owing to the distressful condition of business generally, or the economic depression, more commonly referred to as "the unemployment situation," we see no reason why efforts should not be directed against the chain-stores in the city. Nearly all of the small business enterprises of Cleveland have for many months been put to it to remain in business. Hundreds, and possibly thousands, have been compelled to go out of business, in the last year or two, and many more will be forced to follow unless there is an early improvement in business conditions generally, locally. Their financial condition is such that it is unfair to press them to employ additional help or to replace the experienced help they have and need sorely, particularly at this time, with new help of any race or class. It would be wise, too, for those in charge of the "Spend Your Money Where You Can Work" movement to counsel with some of our experienced and successful business men. KILLED BY A PUNCH. Our readers will undoubtedly recall the fact that on many different occasions in the past The Gazette has characterized prize-fighting as brutal, barbary! We mean prize-fighting, and not boxing. The former is often incorrectly referred to as boxing. For men to walk into the ring, shake hands, and then start beating up one another, until one is knocked out or the other declared victor, for money or anything else is not boxing, but a kind of brutal barbarism that even the natives of Africa in the most remote sections never indulged in unless they had taken on some of the "culture" of the elite of today. We are moved to the foregoing comment by the fact that a young man of the race, a so-called "light-weight-boxer," was sent to his death, Monday night, by a punch over the heart in a bout at Johnstown, Pa. Lord, have mercy! "EMPEROR JONES." The Glipin Players of the Karamu Theater will present the eighteenth production in the Plain Dealer Theatre of the Nations, Sunday evening, at Public Hall's Little Theater. They have selected Eugene O'Neill's "Emperor Jones," the drama in which Charles Glipin starred and established a reputation exceptionally fine actor. When Glipin is in the local group, Encouraged by Glipin's advice and financial aid, they named their group for him and have grown to the point where they give six productions a year in their own theater under the dramatic direction of Rowena Woodham Jelliffe. Fitzhugh L. Woodford will play the role, Paul L. Banks, the part of Heather in the play, Frances Williams of Oberlin, the old native woman; Festus R. Fitzhugh, the Congo witch-doctor, and will do a native dance in a genuine African mask, loaned for the occasion. The beating of the tom-tom (drum) which so enhances the weird atmosphere of "Emperor Jones" will feature this performance. It comes from ancient Africa, and formerly belonged to King Palmdell. Ushers, in native African costume, Melvina Lomax and Naomi Smith. Tickets for "Emperor Jones," $1.50 and $1.00. On sale at Public Music Hall box office. AN APPRECIATION. United States Penitentiary.

Church, a former City of Chicago city, on charges of graft, was postponed for the eleventh time when it came up on call before Judge Joseph Sabath, last week. The bishop is said to be in a sanitarium at Battle Creek, Mich. He was indicted, Nov. 1, 1929. Since the return of the indictment, the state has been ready for trial and has agreed to only one continuance. U.S. S. Senator John McCain (Dem.) is the bishop's attorney. The Nashville "Allenite" official A. M. E. S. organ, declared in a recent issue that the bishop's conviction in a fair trial would "be a wonderful god-send to Methodism." FORCED MAHONEY'S RELEASE. E. Liverpool, O.—Roy Mahoney, bricklayer, who was jailed here, Feb. 25, for leading a demonstration of jobless workers, has been released from jail as a result of the mass pressure of workers. Ball was raised by the international labor organization also provided the legal defense. Mahoney was charged with criminal syndicalism, for having demanded unemployment insurance. The trial was scheduled for 2 p. m., Mar. 13, but long before that hour, workers of both races garreted front of the building, carrying banners and shouting "we demand the release of Roy Mahoney."

Have you secured one of the thousands of jobs to be given out? If not, see your councilman at once. He can, if he wants to, put you to work. Mr. Rounder, this is just a little food for thought: The Cleveland Ball club, operating, it is said, in violation of the decision handed down by Judge Dempsey in the electrical suit, wishes to lease the property (the stadium) of tax-payers, some of whom are not allowed to play on its ball-team because of their race or color. We help to furnish a ball-park (the stadium) to a club which will not sign any of our ball-players, to play on its team, but does have a Jewish short-stop. Is it moral or good policy for the city to conduct such an activity for the use or control of the stadium? Wouldn't such be taxation without representation in our case? We would be taxed to help furnish a park to those who will not allow us to participate in all the benefits accruing from such a lease. Is this not the policy of the southern states?

Micky Durlis (white), Johnstown struck Harris over the heart round. He came out for the 10th and final round. As he reached out to shake hands, he fell to the floor. IN SPITE OF DEATH Curses come in every sound, And wars spread gloom and woe around. The cannon belch forth death and woe. But still the waves wave and bloom. Man fills the earth with grief and wrong. But cannot hush the blue-bird's song. My stars are dancing on the sea, The waves fing kisses up at me. Each walt my gladstone moth doth rise; A rainbow spans my evening skies; The robin's song is full and fine; And roses lift their lips to mine. The joysque ope their petals sweet, The pores does dance my feet; In spite of winter and of death. The Spring is in the zephy's breath. Walter Everette Hawkins.

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, by a mob upon the body of any person to test a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) 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 6221. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the court in which such assault made a sum to receive 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 to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6232. 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 damnated, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars damnated, 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, and then be distributed to the surviving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor or children 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. 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 subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering 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: UBS. ed. a representative of victim of lynching by mob trying to lynch another. d costs in tax levy. e must member of mob f must another county. 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 so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel 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. A person present, with hostile intent, may be charged with the membership of the mob and be liable to 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 they have been convicted on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse 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 enacled while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, bar-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 or nationality, in any of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be finned 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 the penalty for the violation, 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 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.

Here is another “feath- er” for Representative Joseph H. Silbert's cap. The first one was when he introduced the pill. We hope that by the time (soon) his Dill triumphantly passes both State House and Senate that his cap will be full of “feathers” of credit which Joe Weaver's people particularly, will place there as reminders of thé fact that Atty.

The latest to do so is the state of Indiana, Quite a majority of porthern states now have such a law. This is really ithe only solution of the mob-vio- lence or Iynch-murder problem be- cause as long as the South has such commanding influence with the Re- Publican majorities in the U. S, House of Representatives and Sen- fate no anti-mob-violence or anti- lynch-murder law will ever be en- acted. ‘This, The Gazette made clear, years ago, when the N. A. A. C. P. secured the introduction of its first anti-lynching bill. For making this statement we were severely criticiz od at the time, but criticisms gradu: ally grew less in number until they were practically stopped, several years ago. Naturally we are yers proud of being the ‘daddy’ of Onto’s pioneer Mob-Violence or Anti-Lynch- ing law. ‘The only FRE# employment agen- cy in Cleveland is the State-City Em: ployment Agency at the City Hall, ‘maintained by the state of Ohio.

Two oil tanks and a water tank are insulated and heated by two and one-half kilowatt heaters, thermostatically controlled. This enables ships to take the air immediately without warming up process, as the oil and water delivered are kept heated to a degree of approximately 150 Fahrenheit. Five hundred gallons of gasoline, 100 of oil and 35 of water may be made in one delivery. CLEANING URGED PRECEDING TOUR Tuning Up for Long Trips Is Best Assurance of Proper Service. The advent of balmy weather is the signal for the great spring touring offensive and the vanguard of millions of cars freed of winter operating restrictions are beginning to be seen on highways and byways headed for "parts remote." The family car will behave with maximum satisfaction on these expeditions if treated to a bit of cleaning up and tuning up before the start of the season. This advice is applicable to cars of all makes. Probably the first feature of the car to be scrutinized is the cooling system. Radiator and jacket should be flushed thoroughly, and if there is any evidences of scale, fill with a solution composed of water and about one and one-half cupfuls of soda ash and run the motor for a few minutes. This solution, in turn, should be thoroughly flushed out. An inspection should be made of all connections of the system to make certain that they are tight and any evidence of looseness or poorly fitting connections corrected, especially in the fan and bracket. Carbon Should Be Removed. In order to remove all particles of carbon from the engine, it is good policy to remove the crankcase bottom cover and clean it thoroughly. Gasoline is the life stream of the motor, and care should be exercised that the various features of the fuel system function properly. The sediment bulb should be drained and cleaned and any slight obstructions in the feed line should be blown out. The need of a thorough oiling and greasing is particularly urgent in the spring because of the fact that during the winter months this attention is made unpleasant by cold weather. Prevent Punctures. Tires will also probably bear some attention before the long tours begin. Every small cut or break in the rubber may harbor some small stone or piece of glass which is steadily working its way in toward the tube. A few minutes of probing will prevent many a puncture. For motor adjustment, replacement or other vital service the owner is advised to place his car in the hands of the dealer from whom he purchased it and is best qualified to know its needs. "Road Hog" Responsible for Many Auto Accidents One of the outstanding causes of auto accidents is the refusal of slow-moving traffic to keep to the right. Not only does this apply to the lesser highways, but on many of the main thoroughfares this condition obtains. Experts declare that the police who patrol highways in the various districts should deal as rigorously with the "road hog" as with the speedster. Those who delay traffic by dilatory tactics often defeat the purposes for which the modern, wide highway is constructed. Although it is the aim at the present time to have major thoroughfares built from 40 to 60 feet wide, the engineers feel 'that traffic volume must obey the rule that slow moving vehicles keep to the right to bring about the desired results. Make Gear Shift Early When Going Up a Hill If it is suspected that water is in the gasoline tank, apply the test used by oil inspectors. Water, being heavier than gasoline, always sinks to the bottom. Purchase a small quantity of cheap molasses and coat a stick with it. Insert the stick into the tank. Gasoline will have no effect on the molasses, but the water will dissolve it, showing the exact depth of water in the tank. Hard Starting Remedy Hard starting is frequently due to the spark plug gap being too wide. It is advisable, especially at this time, to reset the gap according to recommendations in the car owner's instruction manual. With the plugs in proper condition starting is made easier and battery strength is conserved. Serious Threat Seen The tourist season has come to be recognized as the season of most numerous automobile accidents. In this connection grade crossings loom up as a serious threat to highway safety, and there will be the usual number of fatal accidents and untold suffering unless motorists exercise every precaution. For the benefit of motorists, the officials of a large automobile association issued the following suggestions on approaching railroad crossings: Don't trust to signals and signs at grade crossings unless there is a watchman present. Don't approach a railroad grade crossing at other than an extremely low rate of speed. Don't blow your horn or carry on a conversation that is liable to drown out the sound of an approaching train. Don't shift gears while on the tracks. If it is an upgrade, change before starting uphill and cross the tracks in low or intermediate. Don't take the chance of running out of gas on railroad tracks. Don't forget that a train travels on a fixed path and cannot swerve. Don't forget to always stop before crossing the tracks if the approach is around a curve that is liable to shut off the view of an approaching train. Don't forget that there may be a second section, or if double tracks, a train coming from the opposite direction of the one that has just passed. Car of the Future A striking view of the revolutionary stream-lined car, which Sir Denniston Burney, designer of the R. 100, had built to his own specifications. Ignition Trouble During Spring Rainy Weather One of the old-time rainy weather hints is to wrap the coil and distributor with rubber or oilled silk. Experience has shown this practice to be wrong. Ignition trouble in rainy weather is usually caused by moisture short circuiting the system at some point where the wires are not properly insulated. The only remedy is to remove the cause by drying the ignition units. If the distributor, which is the place most shorts occur, is wrapped with rubber, moisture will accumulate inside the wrapping and the drying process is retarded.

NEW MILLINERY SPEAKS FOR MOST PART IN TERMS OF STRAW THE HAT THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY IN DISCUSSING millinery as is and will be, for this spring and summer, one must speak, for the most part, in terms of straw, for the straw hat in its multiple interpretations is far out-selling any other type. No matter what sort of straw, just so it's straw is apparently the theory being put into practice. Fine milans are as important as rough novelty straws. Formal hats of sheer lacy bodies are likewise given promotion and as for the bakus and the tojo panamas, the panamalaques and such, they are as exotic and as plentiful as ever. Straws of glaring high luster contrast those with no luster at all. As for color, straws have gone riotous. Black and navy comes first generally relieved with white or light blue. Then there's brown which is the diernier for spring. Emphasis is also placed on striking contrast, such as white straw interwoven with black cellophane, or in tri-color effect as black, white and red, orange, brown and pale beige, navy, white and gray, the latter an especial favorite with smart Parisiennes at the present moment. Just as thrilling are the shapes of the new chapeaux. Crowns are different, being that shallow they set the hat way back on the head. And brims. Well, what's coming in the way of flattering and versatile brims words fail to describe. There is this much we know, the hat with a bandeau which tilts the brim in a Watteau leads in the race at the present moment. The little hat at the top to the right SHEER MOUSSELINE WITH VELVET IN THE new fashions, the contrast theme is as much a matter of materials as it is a matter of color. Designers, in their endeavar to feature contrast show no hesitancy in combining weaves which are entirely foreign to each other. In fact, the more out of the ordinary the alliance, the smarter the results, according to the modern way of thinking. Even the most conservative cannot but acquire a taste for these new effects as fashionists are presenting them this season. It is interesting, per example to see filmy white mousselline made up with black velvet, the flouces on the skirt alternating the two materials as shown to the right in the accompanying illustration. This charming evening dress is none other than a Worth creation. For the "formal dress" ensemble also shown in the picture, Vionnet touches a white mousselline frock with a little tuxedo jacket made of sheer velvet in a deep red tone. This feeling that two materials are better than one is in no wise confined to the formal evening mode, but the sentiment prevails throughout all fashiondom. Gingham partners with fine Buy Your Copied or an Acquired SATURDAY. MARCH 28. 1931 PEAKS FOR THE TERMS OF STRAW F STRAW INC IN HOSPITAL ASSOC Badly Equ Advocat is a Watteau. It lifts its brim enough to reveal a flower-trimmed bandeau. The cloche to the left is a bake in natural color. A cluster of green, red and blue soft quilts on the bandeau take the place of flowers. In order to place the accent on its facing of blue grosgrain ribbon, the brim of the hat centered to the right in the picture rolls back, revealing also its ribbon-trimmed bandeau. Qualit as a Dutch maiden's bonnet is the black lace straw dress hat which concludes this group of ultra modish headwear. CHERIE NICHOLAS. (© 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) ES PARTNER FOR FORMAL DRESS are of t organdie, chifton in the form of deep yokes tops the afternoon crepe frocks, and the unusual ways in which designers are trimming dark gowns with lace is a revelation. Vision, for instance, a black crepe two-piece dress, with little pleatings of white lace not only about the sleeves and the neckline, but edging the hemline of the overlouse as well, emphasizing the effect by introducing a few trills of the lace from underneath the hemline of the skirt, quite suggestive of a petticoat if the truth must be told. And there's this matter of tweed and novelty woolen coats, they are stressing the idea of contrast via plings and linings and scarfs and trimming in general of gay plaid or stripe taffeta. Most outstanding in this campaign for contrast which fashion is waging is the jacket costume which makes the skirt of one material and the little bolero or double-breasted packet of something entirely different—a velvet jacket with a plaid skirt for instance, and it is very new indeed to wear a light jacket with a dark skirt.

(Special to The Gazette) (Special to The Gazette) Jersey City, N. J. - Mr. Rosenwald has done much good for our people in the South where it is impossible for them to get a square deal. His value is the value. We believe Mr. Rosenwald's heart is right in his benefactions, but some one is leading him wrong in attempting to get him to build separate hospitals in cities like New York City. There is no place for racial (segregated) hospitals in New York, especially in the South, to cover the crime, race discrimination. Many of our physicians coming North from southern sections are active in trying to establish these Dr. William A. Byrd. separate hospitals. There is no need for them here and these physicians should know that they are just as unacceptable as their "race hospital ideas" are. In Jersey City, with more than 300,000 inhabitants, may be found some of the finest and best equipped hospitals in this country. In these hospitals no discrimination is shown. Dr. Euclid Ghee, son of the well-known physician, Dr. Peter F. Ghee, has been appointed on the staffs of Christ hospital and also General hospital. Young Dr. Ghee is a graduate of Harvard Medical school as a graduate of the College oflege department. By his ability, studiousness and good sense, he has worked himself up to the leading places in these hospitals. It is claimed that our physicians, with bad equipment and poor education, are leaders in trying to have established "Jim-crow" hospitals. Only physicians of known ability are allowed to work in these hospitals. Our people have been made the stalking way for our unprepared physicians to do their butchering. It may be concluded that, when one hears a loud noise about establishing some particular place for some colored professional man to ply his trade, there is in the community a competency, selfishness and graft. Our physicians can be as well equipped as any other physician, if they would only take time and money and prepare themselves. There are many of our men yelling for "race hospitals," "Jim-crow" "s" etc., because they are unprepared for their trade or enter "Ys" among men of standing and first-class qual- Billion Ch are credited every ye of that inimitable sty ings whose character fused with those of an RUBE GAZETTE who might Sub Billions of Chuckles are credited every year to the inventor of that inimitable style of comic drawings whose characters are never confused with those of any artist other than RUBE GOLDBERG MILK CO Watch For Them! ifications.

Then, too, a great number of persons, trying to skim along on their "race love," is nothing more than buncomb.

Too many colloquialized men have been educated, are following the same loud-mouthed practice of catering to the whims of ignorance and ancient habits of our people, simply to get I Offer You $10 Without experience, training or capital for yourself.

A very little conscientious effort is being made by our ministry to uplift and refine our churches. Men are preaching who cannot use correct English and many of them are not third grade pupils in grammar schools.

Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette. Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can ruthlessly say: It is worth its weight. I admire manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it, and if possible smite it. You and I have frequently, during the forty-two years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race into the spotlight, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class.
