Y., and have appointed a commission to "talk things over with President Hoover."

"Where," asked the pastor, "does it say in the Constitution that the white boys go to Plattsburg and the black boys to Virginia?" "It doesn't say," continued the speaker, "and there is the insult." A petition was considered until leaders of the movement reminded them that "a petition, like a prayer, isn't worth much without work going with it." A group was then appointed to write a letter to the president requesting an audience. --- Our Prices Saturdays Until 10 P. M. Open All Day Wednesday.

SCOTTSBORO CASES Today May Tell Whether the Nine Boys in Alabama, Condemned to Death, Are to Have a Real Trial. New York City—Gen. Geo. W. Chamlee of Tennessee and Jos. R. Brodsky of New York, defense attorneys, have argued motions for a new trial for the "Scottsboro" boys sentenced to die in the electric chair July 10. The hearing however, was continued by Judge Hawkins to June 13, to permit the filing of final affidavits and briefs. Chamlee and Brodsky filed affidavits proving that Ruby Bates and Victoria Price, the two girls (white) in the case, are notorious prostitutes, as well as affidavits from the brain crew, showing that they were taken by the same car as the girls the night of the arrests. The prosecution in the original trial made the claim that the sheriffs removed the boys and the two girls from the same car. They were not contradicted by the two state-appointed hawkins allowed the state ten days to file additional affidavits and for Brodsky and Chamlee to file briefs. All the jurymen in the trial (of five of the boys) appeared with witnesses, and under Chamlee's examination admitted that they were near the courthouse when a demonstration broke loose celebrating the death-verdict of Norris and Weems, the first cases tried. They also admitted hearing the brass band playing in celebration of the death-sentence. Chamlee then argued that these men were prejudiced and influenced and had accepted jury service atho disqualified. While in the court room (at Scottsboro, Ala.) arguing for the defense, Brodsky was surrounded by a mob and told to leave town. Brodsky the N. A. A. C. P.?

Barberton, O.—Procedure of a double-barreled investigation into the disappearance of C.

With one day's hearing of kidnapping charges against three Barberon policemen, charged with abducting Anilah, matter of history, Isham called Lancaster to mine whether the grand jury investigation would go ahead as promised or wait the outcome of the Barberon hearings which were continued after the session, Monday, to await the outcome of grand jury action. Additional charges were brot by Mrs. Yetta Land of Cleveland, Communist attorney, after Mrs. Hate Simpson of Barberon signed and Patrolmen James Head, Dean Shannon and Henry Robertson all white, under an Afro-American Communist, from her home the morning of Feb. 4 and did away with him.

Leading Porto Rican Party Kills Move for U. S. Statehood; Hits "Oppressive Rule." San Juan, Porto Rico.—like the Philippines, Porto Rico must become a republic, the former Unionist Party proclaimed, Tuesday. The party eliminated its platform plank asking statehood for the island and the unionist party preme ideal was that of all worthy peoples. American rule for a third of a century, according to the resolution, "against the will and without the participation of our people, has failed because it has had as its purpose the destroying of the Porto Rican personality and the subjecting of Porto Rico to an oppressive, degrading and colonial condition." The resolution added that the island feels grief and shame at being the only American community deprived of liberty and sovereignty. It appealed to the American people "and all peoples of our race" against such humiliation. TUCKER ON HOOVER. The Southern Clergyman and Attorney "Says a Mouthful and Then Some." Louisville, Ky.—C. Eubank Tucker, clergyman and attorney, has just issued the following statement: Annyone who has followed carefully the policy of the lily-wise and anti-'Negro' House, the traction as is evidenced by the attack on Perry Howard, the displacement of Ben 'Davis from the national committee, the appointment of a white man to Liberia, the snubbing of the Haitian colored commission, the segregation of the Gold Star Mothers, the insidious attempt to place Judge Parker on the U. S. Supreme Court bench, the refusal to reappoint Walter Cohen and, on his death, the filling of his vacant office before his funeral, with a white man, and the Hoover speech at Elizabeth, Tenn., to the assembled forces, the Ku Klux Klan, in the pledge he made to appoint no 'Negroes', Jews or Catholics to Federal office, cannot fall to the conclusion that there has never sat in the White House a President of either party who has been so hostile to the advancement of the 'Negro' as Herbert Hoover. The foregoing is enough to make ve., the President's "black-men Fridays." Hawkins, Scott, Howard and Davis, lay awake nights.

SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1931 The latest U. S. census (1930) gives Cuyahoga county (Cleveland) 20,000 more Afro-Americans than Hamilton county (Cincinnati). Well, well! "How times have changed" in the last twenty years --- Recently, the court of appeals reversed a municipal court judgment against the Empire Savings & Loan Co. The suit was brot by a depositor who demanded the immediate payment of his entire deposit. This serves legal notice on all that they cannot wreck the institution with a "run," something unwisely and unintentionally attempted at different times in recent months. While all of them may not appreciate the fact, this is good news to all of the depositors and stockholders of the company. SOME CENSUS FACTS. According to the latest U. S. census reports, there were 71,899 of our people in Cleveland, last year; 24,663 males of voting age, and 23,290 females of voting age, making our total voting strength in Cleveland, 47,953. The real truth is that there are really over fifty thousand Afro-American voters in Cleveland, for the very good reason that many are overlooked while others are of such light-complexion that they are registered as "white." The figures in the foregoing are official—come from "Uncle Sam," and are not merely the say-so of any brother of color, or otherwise. During our several candidacies for the Republican nomination for governor of Ohio in recent years, we frequently called attention to the fact that our people had enough votes in this state to nominate one of their number for a state office without the assistance of votes from others. Now comes "Uncle Sam" with his latest census reports and announces 105,736 male Afro-American voters and 93,555 female Afro-American voters, making a total of 199,291 in the state of Ohio. Had these votes, or a goodly majority of them, ever been cast for any of our candidacies for a state office we would have been triumphantly nominated because each candidacy was supported by thousands upon thousands of white voters throughout the state of Ohio. The total Afro-American population of the state of Ohio is 309,304, according to the latest census reports (1930), 159,128 of these being males and 150,176 females. As a matter of fact, for reasons stated in the foregoing, we would be clearly within our rights to claim a total population in the state of Ohio of three hundred and twenty-five thousand, for there are easily sixteen thousand light-complexioned (registered as white) and other Afro-Americans, overlooked by the census-takers. "SAVE ST. JAMES"! Members of St. James A. M. E. church, this city, say that their pastor's salary and his monthly expense account run considerably over $4000 a year, and that that is entirely too large an amount for that congregation to pay, especially in these "unemployment times." The church is struggling with might and main to "save St. James"—raise immediately fourteen thousand dollars to pay on the thirty-one thousand dollar deficiency (court) judgment given against the church on a mortgage against property formerly owned by the congregation. St. James is simply staggering in a financial battle that is almost enough to ingulf it, and greatly needs the financial relief such a reduction, in the pastor's salary, would give it. His activity in politics undoubtedly consumed time and effort that could better have been used for the benefit of the church. "Bobblegushing" for the church rather than for politics would have netted far better results to both pastor and congregation. St. James' financial condition is pitiful and is to be greatly regretted. Let us all take a hand and help it to weather the storm. Later on, Bishop W. H. Heard may be prevailed upon to give the church much-needed relief in the shape of a pastor who will pay more attention to its welfare than to a desire to bask in the political limelight. HEAR! HEAR!! NEW The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! The pastor of St. James A. M. E. church said, Sunday evening, after the sermon: "We have some pretty good insurance companies, but I don't think much of our banks." It would not be difficult to tell what a great many people in this community think of St. James" "bobbleush" pastor, either. Many Ought to Be Stopped! Hopeful: Rev. Frank M. Baker to a great deal of credit for calling attention to a long standing evil, the door-to-door solicitors of missions (?). He is chairman of the United Committee on Missions of the local Federated churches. Persons approached for money should communicate with the Better Business Bureau of Commerce, Federated Churches of the Welfare Federation for information on the soliciting organization. Central and Scovill Cars The City Council will soon have the Scovill Ave. cars running on Prospect Ave. west of E. 14th St. and turning where the Central Ave. cars do now. At the same time, Central Ave. cars will be moved from the avenue west of E. 14th St. They will turn onto Prospect Ave. at E. 14th St. and run along Prospect to E. Second St. where they will loop around High Ave. and back to Prospect Ave. at E. 4th St. When the Lorain-Central High level bridge is completed, the Central Ave. cars will be taken off entirely, as The Gazette for several years has repeatedly warned all the people of the third councilmanic district. The Payne Ave. line will run to the old depot from the Public Square. Arthur "Tired." Will Quit! Mayor A. R. Johnston of Miles Heights village has announced that he would not be a candidate for reelection. He is serving his second term and said he has had enough of politics. This announcement came, Monday night, after the village council had accepted petitions bearing 300 names asking for the annexation of Miles Heights to Cleveland. Previous petitions had been rejected by county commissioners on the basis of too few valid signatures. "I'm just tired," Johnston explained. "You don't want to run the second time, never saw the petition that nominated me then. I think I'll get a farm and a pair of horses and forget all this. I reckon I'm not enough of a politician." A "Lily-White" Democratic Club? W. H. Mueller, pres., Wm. Galatias, vice-pres.; Michael Troyan, sec., and Chas. Sukay, treas., are officers of the Two-Ward Democratic club of the 11th and 12th. Jos. B. Smolka, pres. of the Slovak Democratic league, addressed this organization's first meeting which was held, one night last week, in St. Joseph's hall, in Creighton Ave. and E. 230. Inking from the names of the officers and the fact that it looks like a "lily-white" club, the funny part about it all is that there are about as many white Democrats in the 11th and 12th wards as there are icebergs in the Gulf of Mexico. So that if Americans (white) with the foreign names, in these two wards, want to be lonesome and exclusive, all they have to do is to join this Two-Ward Democratic club. Their Salaries Too High Reading the paper the other day I noticed that several pastors of our churches had returned to their charges after several or more months "vacationing," in the South, and that another spends much of his time visiting far distant points in the west as well as the South. And naturally The Rounder wondered whether said traveling, visiting and "vacationing" pastors were thoufful enough to refuse pay from their congregations for the time they absent themselves from their mortgaged charges? So many of their members are finding it difficult and then to purchase food and clothing, to pay rent, grocery bills, etc., that The Rounder feels that this ought to be done in addition to the aforementioned pastors and others of their kind inviting substantial cuts in their salaries where they are in excess of $1500 or $2000 a year. Two Good Resolutions The following resolution (the first) unanimously adopted at St. James' forum, Sunday afternoon week, is a good one, and should be duplicated by everyone of our organizations in Cleveland and the state of Ohio: "We note with keen regret the dismissal of Prof. Herbert A. Miller of Ohio State university because of his liberal teaching with regard to the race question. This we consider a blot upon the good name of our tax-supported institution, and THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1931 I TELL YOU, DICK, I’ve GOT THE ONLY RADIO MADE-IT’S A NINE-BULB SUPER-TURPENTINE AND DOES EVERYTHING BUT JUMP UP AND KISS YOU MY LITTLE TWO-YEAR-OLD SON GOT HONOLULU LAST NIGHT- WE DON’T KNOW WHAT STATIC IS- IT MAKES ME LAUGH TO SEE PEOPLE FUSSING WITH THEIR RADIO SETS ALL THE TIME-MINE NEVER GETS OUT OF ORDER MARGARET, WHERE’S THE RADIO?

The second resolution charged that no Afro-Americans have been appointed to federal posts of large responsibility; that the administration is fostering segregation of the races, and that President Hoover places in important positions men antagonist to Afro-Americans such as the Secretary of Labor. Doak, Officers elected here: J. E. Hubbard, pres.; Atty. A. J. Cunningham, vice-pres.; Miss Emily Wright, sec., and Mrs. W. R. Hicks, treas. PRIME SPORT NEWS. Our Boy "Cleans Up!" East Tech's track team romped to an undisputed victory in the varsity division of the Senate league at John Adams field, last Saturday, led by the flying feet of Jesse Owens, who set one of six new records in capturing three first places and one second. The winners gathered 72½ points, completely outclassing the West Tech runners, defending champions, who were unable to obtain the points to take second honors in the annual meet. The other scores in this division were John Adams 16, Collinson 27, Central 16, Glennville 8, John Hay 5½, East High 5, South 5, Lincoln 4 and West 4. Baseball Fans Riot in Ohio Cleveland, June 2.—A riot was narrowly averted here, this afternoon, when the St. Louis Stars left the field in the last half of the fifth inning of their game with the Cleveland Cubs. The trouble started when Umpire Cummings ejected Young, catcher of the Stars, from the game for using profanity. Young refused to leave the game and when the umpires called time, until he left the field, the entire St. Louis team refused to resume play. Cleveland was leading, 4 to 3, at the time and, after a wait of five minutes, umpires forfeited the game to the Cubs. The fans then started a stampede on the box office, demanding their money back. Cleveland police were called to the game with serious trouble. Although having been played, the management of the Cleveland club redeemed rain checks with tickets good for any game played by the club.—Chicago Defender, June 6, 1931. Poor grounds and demonstrations like this will soon put the "binger" on "race" baseball in this city. As if the "economic depression" or unemployment situation was not enough. Eh? Indianapolis won a double-header from The Cubs, the first of this week. DIGESTING THE NEWS. By Cliffard C. Mitchell. Chief among our transitory organizations are the numerous political bodies. A few years ago I started to compile statistics on our political organizations, as they sprung up in different parts of the country. A card was made for each local organization. The officers were duly recorded. Their subsequent activities were closely watched and their accomplishments noted. After an election, city, state or national, little or nothing was heard of them until another election was in the offing and with but few exceptions the same organizers would again be in the forefront with an accompanying with them some of the supporters of their previous efforts while some of the remainder would be split up in new organizations of their own. Year after year, election after election, this procedure would be the same. As further proof that the old organizations were non-existent letters of inquiry were sent out which usually came back with the notation, "moved—left no address." My files are cluttered with such misses. Therefore, as the result of years of careful watching and studying, I refuse to become enthusiastic over each announcement of some new political organization or "jim-crow" affiliation with either of the two dominant major parties. However, our press recently carried the announcement of a new independent political body that our Congressman (from Illinois) was sponsoring (which would be sent to a former aide and executive meeting of interested parties on the 26th of this month. This writer is not fully informed on the details of this proposed organization but if the speeches that our Congressman has been making, all over the country, are indicative of what his idea of an independent political body should be, then, this writer feels that at last we are going to do a tremendous amount of good for our group and at a time when we can, just as well as not, hold the balance of power in the forthcoming elections. Certainly we need a national organization in the political field that will so organize our local groups as to enable us to tie up with the ruling classes. There is no sense or advantage in being all Republicans or all Democrats. We will watch this prove to be the political panacea that we are so much in need of. NEVER OUT OF ORDERS OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Action 6279. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6280. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6282. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6284. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. 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 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 body of any person shall constitute a "chaining" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include as a person momentarily or temporarily disabling 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 and the assault is made (93 v. 161 4). Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in perilhood or disability, to earn a livelihood by 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 from the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share, or 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 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 person (162. 7). 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 inquire into the costs of action, in the next successive 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 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 person in the person's possession. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) 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: OBIS. and representative of victim of lynching by mob trying to lynch another. and costs in tax levy. and member of mob and another county. MORS 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, and from which contributory negligence 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 enclosed while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be furnished by city dollars nor more than five hundred dollars or imprisoned not less than thirty dollars nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is that people will not use it as often as they should but will it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. AN OPPORTUNITY!

A steel tube operated by compressed air bodily lifts the car into the air while water is forced by the same means over every part of the vehicle, the mud being washed into a container sunk below the level of the concrete floor. An average of an hour and a half is saved by this method—the afterwork of greasing being so greatly facilitated by the position of the car. WORN-OUT CARS SEEN AS MENACE Many Now on Road Should Be Scrapped as Protection to Public Driving an automobile that is not in perfect mechanical condition, either through defect in its equipment or wear and tear in its parts, is a danger to life and limb, the Chicago safety council warns. Yet, thousands of cars are driven on the streets and highways daily with defective brakes, faulty steering mechanisms and other defects, while hundreds of others are in such a worn out and dilapidated condition that proper maintenance is impossible and should be eliminated from the highway and scrapped for the protection of the driver of such a vehicle and the general public. Many Improvements Made. The manufacturers of motor vehicles are giving more and more attention to the building into their products of the safety factor, and the best engineering thought and skill is being directed to the development and improvement of the mechanical features of the motor car. The development of the four wheel brake and other mechanical improvements, which have been made in recent years, has given the driver greater control over the movement of his vehicle, but proper maintenance is essential to keep the vehicle in safe operating condition. From surveys made in various parts of the country on the causes of accidents, it is generally agreed that vehicular defects are an important or contributing factor in at least fifteen per cent of all fatal motor vehicle accidents. In a report on this subject the Chicago safety council states: "Defective brakes are outstanding among the causes of fatal accidents resulting from faulty equipment. From 45 to 50 per cent of accidents resulting from faulty equipment are due to bad brakes. In a number of the eastern states where vehicle inspection campaigns have been conducted, from 25 to 28 per cent of the vehicles examined have been found to have faulty brakes." Present-Day Oil Has Been Acting for Many Years Did you ever stop to think that the motor oil you order so casually poured into the crankcase for lubricating the family car's engine may be derived from petroleum that was mellowing in the earth more than 100,000,000 years before present-day civilization found a way to utilize it? "Petroleum products are among the oldest natural commodities in the world that man uses today," says a bulletin issued by the American Research Foundation. "Crude oil was being stored away in the ground dim eons ago in the Paleozoic era, which scientists estimate began at least 150,000,000 years ago." Don't Hurry Repairing Any Leak in Inner Tube If you are patching an inner tube you will get best results if you do not hurry the application of the patch. Apply the cement to both the patch and to the tube to be mended, and before applying the patch to the tube, let the cement become dry enough so that it is in the "tacky," or very sticky stage. The patch can then be applied and it will be found that it will adhere readily, with little chance of blowing off or leaking when the tube is inulated. Car Care Fundamentals Fundamentals in anything are most important. As to car care, the fundamentals include proper chassis lubrication, regular changes in engine oil, periodic tire inflation, replenishment of the radiator water supply and attention to the battery. It is because they are so elementary that these forms of attention are so often overlooked. "Hitch-Hiking" Season With the open season for "hitch-hiking" again at hand, the legal department of the Chicago Motor club warned all car owners not to pick strangers who solicit rides from the roadside. "While this policy at first thought may seem selfish, it nevertheless is founded upon good judgment," the department declared in a statement. "There are many instances on record wherein the 'hitch-hiker' has turned upon his benefactor and robbed him of his car and money. Some motorists have even been murdered by those to whom they gave assistance. "Furthermore, in many states it is possible for a 'hitch-hiker' to recover damages from his benefactor is the event he is injured in an accident and can prove that his 'host' was negligent. "For these and other reasons, the practice of begging rides has become such a nuisance that five states and the District of Columbia have passed laws prohibiting it and providing penalties for violation. Those states are Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York and Wisconsin. The legislatures of several other states are considering such a statute."

AUTOMOBILE NOTES England plans the expenditure of $250,000,000 on its highways during the coming year. The term "horse power" was coined by James Watt in England in 1870, to describe the power of his steam engine. If you are inclined always to insist upon your right of way—remember that you are likely to have the right of way some day in an ambulance returning from an accident. A centenarian of Glasgow attributes his great age to the fact that for the first 70 years of his life there were no motor cars and for the last 30 years he has been confined to the house. In spite of the apparent popularity of open sport models, the percentage of closed cars manufactured is still increasing. Closed cars comprised 01 per cent of all cars manufactured in 1990, whereas in 1920 closed cars comprised 89.4 per cent. If your license plates are placed on the cross bar in front of the radiator be sure the holding clamps are tight. Many radiators are damaged each year by license plates rubbing against the core and causing leaks. Traffic in Paris is greatly hampered by motor vehicles which carry advertising displays. Antiques of the motor industry are put in charge of negro chauffeurs in bright red uniforms and sent through the streets with sandwich boards announcing the qualities of certain shoe polishes, radio sets, etc. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1931. EITHER WHITE OR BRIGHT JACKET CONTRASTS DARK FROCK OR SKIRT YOUNGSTERS' KNIT BATHING SUITS SUBSCRIBE TO THE JACKET VOGUE SUNSHINE JACKERWOOD & SIDERWOOD IN THE white jacket which tops the dark frock or skirt, a distinctly new trend of thought has been opened to the world of fashion. This movement reflects the influence of the vogue which calls for sharp contrast at the same time that it responds to the insistent demand of the mode for costume detail which is daringly white. Now that the white-jacket vogue has been set in motion, its popularity is increasing with leaps and bounds. In developing the theme, designers are employing materials of every description. Cottons, linens and such are as much in favor for these smart little immaculately white jackets as are the handsomest of silk crepes, satins and velvet. One notes in the style parade maybe a white velvet jacket here, a white crepe jacket there, with many a jacket of white all-over eyelet embroidery here, there and everywhere, each one of them posed over a skirt or dress of navy, black or brown as the case may be. The clever jacket to the left in the picture is of vogush eyelet encroidered batiste. It is smartly belted with black patent leather. Its shaped peplum and flowing elbow length sleeves are outstanding details. The YOUNGSTERS' KNIT B SUBSCRIBE TO THE THERE'S fun ahead! Vacation time is at hand and it's "Cmon in, the water's fine," which sea and lake, river and rivulet are beginning to shout at the top of their voice to carefree youngsters. But what's the use of such an enticing invitation unless one has a new "comfy" and gay bathing suit, many a child would like to know. Many a mother is answering the question by joining the mad rush which is stamped, or soon will be, the departments where beach, bathing and swimming accountment necessary to a tussle with the waves or a sun bath on sandy stretches is being sold to eager, joyous thongs. Like all other costumes, bathing suits have subscribed this season to the jacket vogue. Mothers who fear the chill which sometimes follows when the little folks emerge from their frolic with the waves will agree that it is a very sensible thing for a juvenile, bathing suit to take on an extra little jacket such as tops the cunning suit in the accompanying picture. Another interesting feature about this season's smartest bathing suits is their bright yellow, red, blue, green and orange stripes on white, black or Your Copy or an Acqua k of of dress is black flat crepe. When this young woman dons her chapeau, it very likely will be either white straw of some sort, for the latest fashion formula calls for white millinery to top the white jacket which is worn with a dark costume. Competing with the jacket, which is pure white is the jacket which contrasts the dark color of the dress with bright color. The arresting costume illustrated to the right is designed in black and yellow wool crepe. The close fitting jacket is worn over a blouse of yellow flat crepe that has sleeves half-in half black and yellow. The scarf tied at the neck is also in black and yellow. One after another these striking contrasts between jacket and skirt are to be seen wherever fashionables gather. Sometimes it is white, which enlivens black or navy. Then again comes along a jauity white summer fur coatte or bolo worn with gray, for gray with white is very smart. CHERIE NICHOLAS. © 1931, Western Newspaper Union. BATHING SUITS THE JACKET VOGUE navy backgrounds. The two piece woolen knit suit here shown is a type which is destined to become very popular. The increasing interest in yellow for children's apparel is reflected in the little sunsuit which has trunks of fine linen in a pale daffodil shade with a bib front and shoulder straps of coarse-mesh knitted cotton. Play clothes for the younger set include many attractive novelties such as pajama costumes with huge floppy shade hats which, if they are not made of self material, are apt to be straw, banded and bound in matching material. Printed rompers with little coats are among the attractions in childhood's realm, also long-trousered gob outfits. Shirt-and-short combinations are also shown in endless color effects. Most interest is shown in pajamas when the trousers are very full-fare, the jaunty jackets of which are usually cut in bolero style, their color emphasizing striking contrast. Many models for junior introduce the nautical theme. For these white is usually the basic note, with the trousers cut in gob lines, touches of red and blue appearing on sailor collars or in stripes down the side of the trousers. Appliqué anchors and wheels are also used. Sold separately but suitable to combine with the white trousers are double-breasted jackets and berets of navy blue broadcloth. CHERIE NICHOLAS. (©. 1931. Western Newspaper Union.) y of The C aintance wh COLOR-LINE SEGREGATION (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 hospitals and schools are of much 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 when they are built in the same way as their discrimination. Many of our physicians are active in trying to establish these 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. Ghee, son of the well-known physician Dr. 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 well as the Harvard University College department. By his ability, students and good sense, he has worked in 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 and experience are allowed to 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 trade, there is in the back-background, 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 Ys," etc., because they are not yet charmed by their trade or enter "Ys" among men of standing and first-class qualifications. The day of "race accommodations" to cover race unpreparedness to function as other men, HAS PASSED! Then, too, a great number of persons, trying to skim along on their "race love," is nothing more than buncomb. With the m-doo-door for equipment qualification, you may walk of life must take their places along of prepared men and not only colored men. Perhaps the "Negro" ministry is a great sinner in this particular. Too many ignorant, flamboyant and loud-mouthed colored men are preaching, today, having only a stentorian voice as their principle asset.

(2) Why should he endeavor to foist "exclusively Negro hospitals" in the North? Did the colored people "en masse" ask for this blot upon their American citizenship?
