Marcus Garvey, founder and president-general of the U. N. I. A., will move the headquarters of the organization to London, Eng., July 21, '31, from St. Andrew, Jamaica, B. W. I. An attempt was made, last week, Thursday, to lynch Rev. D, P. Brown (white), age 30, before the pulpit of North Dallas (Texas) Baptist church, of which he was relief pastor. Marion Freeman, age 23, of Detroit, has the honor of making the highest grading in a general test at Henry Ford's "Apprentice School of Electrical Engineering," drafting and designing. A bronze statue of Joe Gans of Baltimore, one of the greatest pugilists of all time, is in an obscure, almost hidden corner of the lobby of Madison Square Garden, N. Y. City. It shows Joe in a fighting pose. Dean Samuel H. Archer of Morehouse College, Atlanta, since 1920, and acting president during the past year, has been elected president of the college to succeed Dr. John Hope, president of Atlanta University. Fred C. ("Chick") Meade, former third baseman of the Blacksox of the Hillsdale and Harrisburg, Pa. baseball teams, passed for "colored" in order to play with our eastern league. A forged check for $705 is said to have gotten him eighteen months in the Maryland penitentiary, recently. Rt. Rev. W. J. Walls, presiding bishop of the New England conference of Zion A. M. E. Church, in his annual address to the conference, recently, characterized Clarence Wynn Pickens and Henry Mencken as "fools craving publicity" because of their attack on ministers. Hon. W. N. Doak, secretary U. S. department of labor and as such a member of President Hoover's cabinet, who has openly been charged with opposing the employment of our men and who belongs to the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen which does not admit Afro-American members, says in the July issue of The Crisis (magazine) that he is a friend of Afro-American labor and demonstrated it on several occasions. When Mrs. Lola Wimbs Ellis, E. 87th St., returned recently, from an extended visit on the Pacific coast, at Los Angeles and Pasadena, Cal., she brot the editor the address of Mr. James Miller, an old friend, and many years ago a resident of Cleveland. Very kind and thouful of Mrs. Ellis. The Wynnes have finally come to a parting of the ways after many weeks battling in the courts. Understaff Arthur E. was granted a divorce from his wife, Dale Victor, last week Monday. But the question of the custody of the child and division of property was to have been settled, this week, if Mrs. Wynne, who was ill, was able to appear in court. Minerva Dixon, who was named by Mrs. Wynne in her divorce proceedings, was in court, last week. The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! The other day, The Rounder had the nicest roast lamb (not mutton) dinner which included two vegetables, tea, coffee or postum, with cream (we took postum), plenty of nice fresh bread, butter and ice-cold warm sauce in a restaurant stand just inside (a little right) of the Woodland Ave. entrance to the Woodland-E. 55th market. And how much do you suppose it cost us. Just 35 cents, and not 50, 60 or 70 cents as is the case in too many other places in the country. You patronize. And his prices remain the same these economic depressor days. The effort, to open places for our young men and women in the public places of business in the third councilmanic district particularly, was inaugurated, some months ago, by Rev. and Mrs. Boston J. Prince of Messiah Baptist church. The present effort, of certain officials of the East End Political club and other individuals, to take from the Princes the favorable results of their continued effort is manifestly unfair and naturally is felt keenly your money where you can work" campaign has resulted in some good along the line pursued and is still doing so. So give them the credit they are surely entitled to. The Rounder has heard it said that Perry Jackson might be a candidate for the Council in the second district, this fall, but we don't believe he could be so foolish, and guilty of such ingratitude. The local Republican organization did everything possible to elect him, last fall. It played fair! Something he'd better do now. Had "The Blossom Triplets" used the least bit of political judgment, Perry would have succeeded Councilman Charles Sacks in the city law department. Then, too, he wouldn't have a chance as a candidate for the City Council in the second district which isn't the most American voters, some of whom refused to vote for him when a candidate for re-election to the Legislature, last fall. It behooves Perry to steer clear of the advice of "The Blossom Triplets" who are riding to a sure "fall," this fall. --- J. W. Raper, an excellent writer of the Cleveland Press, speaking of the O. S. U. trustees' dismissal of Dr. Herbert A. Miller, says: "Why all the pussy-footing on the part of President Rightmire, the trustees and the faculty of Ohio State University in the Miller case? Why can't some of the newspapers try to find a parent who objects, and having found the parent, ask him what part of Prof. Miller's teaching was objectionable?" "Because," he continues, "It would be interesting to know if any of these objecting parents (if there be any) are honest enough to admit the objection to Prof. Miller is that he has been brave enough to tell his students that the assumption by many, that the white race is superior to all other races found in connection by biological facts, and that not only has he eaten at a table at which 'Nerro' men and women were seated, but he actually has convinced most of his students that their souls, would not be stained, nor their honor tarnished, if they did the same." Mr. Raper also said, "Why not ask for the names of some of the parents who object to Dr. Miller's race ideas?" The Central Gospel hall will begin tent services, June 28, at E. 79th and Cedar Ave., for the months of July and August, with "Brother" T. B. Nottage of Grace Chapel Gospel hall, New York City, in July, and "Brother" B. M. Nottage, in August.-Adv. Miss Cynthia Moultrie, E. 87th St. was valedictorian of her class at Central High, this year, attaining a four-year average of 92.15. This, too, in spite of the faet that Nathan Grunstein had his picture in the local papers and announced that he was to be the probable valedictorian. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS SAYS COLUMBIA PROFESSOR ALSO, THE INTERMARRIAGE OF RACES MEANS BETTER STOCK! European History Proves This—Religion, Social Standing and Racial Differences Keep Races Apart—The Remedy Pasadena, Cal.—If race prejudice were innate there would be sexual aversion and little mixing of races, Prof. Franz Boas of Columbia University, president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, told the body at its annual session here, June 15. Religion and social standing, as well as racial prejudice, serve as groups apart, the child but all disappear where children grow up as one body. Intermarriage Intermarriage of races, he said, is not the evil it is asserted to be by politicians and propagandists. He pointed out how freely whites had children by female colored slaves and how Negroes and Indians mixed in this country and in South America. This shows clearly there is no biological foundation for race feeling, he said. Referring to Europe as a great melting pot in which Romans, Greeks, Germanic tribes, and Slavs intermarried to form a new race centuries ago. Too Boas and other African tribes in Africa also overran Spain and that country's ascendance followed the period of greatest race mixing. Its decline set in when the population GREAT BELASCO STAR On Her Honeymoon to Make Her Debut in Grand Opera in Cleveland's New Stadium. The famous stage actress, Helen Gahagan, last of the great Belasco stars, will desert the dramatic stage for her American debut in grand opera, during the Cleveland openair civic opera season, July 28 to A. HELEN GAHAGAN Aug. 2. Miss Gahagan, who will come to Cleveland following an eighteenth-month run of the show "Tonight or Never" in New York, will be among the twenty-five artists and conductors engaged for leading parts in the week's festival. Recently married her husband, the reading author, Douglas the reader, ready to sail on an extended honeymoon trip to Europe when Director Guy Golterman of the Cleveland Stadium Grand Opera Company offered her a contract. "I am happy to make my American opera debut in Ohio because my grandmother and her people came from the Buckeye state." Miss Gahagan said upon signing it. He the other big stars were enchanted in our last issue. Arrangements are being made thorough Ohio for special train excursions and special busses to bring opera-lovers to the Stadium Grand Opera, the musical event of significance to all Ohio. JULY OPPORTUNITY. E. Franklin Frazier, department of sociology, Fisk University, explodes some popular myths in July "Opportunity" with an arresting article, "Disorganization of Afro-American Family Life." The story of the organization of cooks and waiters on the Pacific coast is graphically depicted by Floyd Covington in "Union Styles: Black Labor in White Coats." "Opportunity" prize winner, John Matheus, writes a gripping short story of Herschel S. Palmachi, H.B. Elleger of the International Committee has a short article, "Poison in the Blood Stream," and Sterling A. Brown comments illuminatingly on Seabrook's "Jungle Ways." THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSLEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. EQUAL, BIA PROFESSOR MARRIAGE OF RACES MEANS ER STOCK! Loves This—Religion, Social Differences Keep Races The Remedy --- became stable and immigrations stopped. **Races Equal.** Prof. Boas contended that, regardless of race prejudices and antipathies, all races are practically equal in their biological attributes. “There is no reason to believe,” he said, “that one race is by nature so much more intelligent, endowed with greater will power, or emotionally more stable than others, that the difference would materially influence its culture. Nor is there any good reason to believe that the differences between races are so great that the descendants of mixed marriages would be inferior to their counterparts in society, thereby their good reason to object to family close inbreeding in healthy groups, nor to intermingling of the principal races. I believe that the present state of our knowledge justifies us to say, that while individuals differ, biological differences between races are small.” The problems due to the intermingling of racial types in our country have given rise to strong emotional reactions and have led to varied types of legislation, he remarked. GLENN FRANK RAPS LEADERSHIP OF U. S. Declares Nation Cannot "Muddle" Through Crisis; Hints at President Hoover. Madison, Wis.—America is crying for leadership that will take the people out of the muddle of depression and the hypocrisy that has come to surround prohibition, President Glenn Frank of the University of Wisconsin, said in his baccalaureate address here, Sunday afternoon. Taking a text from the Bible, "For the leaders of this people cause them to err, and they that are led by them are destroyed." President Frank fearlessly sailed into a discussion of economic and political issues. It is the boldest address ever written. Century Magazine always known has made since assuming the presidency of the institution in 1926, President Hoover's name was not mentioned, but few of the listeners did not believe Dr. Frank referred to him. The educator said we had muddled through other depressions but could not get through this one. "If we are in earnest about finding the cause of this depression, we must look elsewhere than in the reports of the certified accountants" declared President Frank. The aim of freeing the sufferers is a famine of leadership throughout the western world. We have muddled through before. We shall not muddle through this time. The processes and relationships of business and government have become too technical, too sensitive, too interdependent for management by muddlers. The simple society of workers is often forced or temporizing leadership. We need leaders blessed with an unprecedented clarity of insight and an uncompromising courage of action." HAITIAN MINISTER Orates in France — Distinguished Afré-French Hear Him. Paris, France.—In the presence of M. Doumergue, president of the republic, the members of the Senate, the French Academy and others, the centenary of the Abbe Gregoire was observed in the amphitheatre of the Sorbonne. The principal address in praise of the Abbe was made by M. Brunot, of the French Institute. The Abbe Gregoire was the most militant champion of the rights of man during the French revolution and is especially remembered for the part he played in the abolition of slavery in Haiti and in the other French colonies. Later he devoted himself to the cause of the slaves in British and American territory as well as to that of the oppressed Jews and Irish. Among the principal speakers at the annual symposium minister from Haiti. The Haitian national anthem and other Haitian songs were rendered by the choir. Among the many distinguished colored Frenchmen present were Senator Lemery, M. D. Diagne, Candace, and Delmont of the Chamber of Deputies, and Profs. Beton and Cenac-Thaly of the Sorbonne. --- PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY IN-UNION IS STRENGTH 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. 325,000 in Ohio. 75,000 in Cleveland. SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1931 President Herbert Hoover's suggestion, for one year's suspension of all war debts and reparations payments, is for the purpose of "saving Germany," it is said. If Germany were not "saved" what would become of our millions of private capital loaned that country thru the National City and the J. Pierpont Morgan banks of N. Y. City? Wonder if this last is not really the moving spirit in the President's suggestion, after all? Dr. Ernest A. Hooten, professor of anthropology at Harvard and curator of somatology at the Peabody Museum, ridicules the claim of "Nordics" that they were of a pure race, and superior to other peoples. He also says that there is a great deal of scientific evidence to show that intermarriage and mixture of races is a fine thing for the human race. Dr. Hooten's new book, "Up From The Ape," has just been published by the Macmillan Co. --- The Federal Bar Association is just at present leading in the discipable effort to separate Afro-American and Americans as far as possible. It notified its New York, New Jersey and Connecticut state branches to drop their Afro-American members, something they refuse to do, notifying the national headquarters, at Washington, D. C., that they will withdraw from the organization rather than comply with its order. This is as it should be. LAUGHING AT AMERICANS. Someone has suggested that the exhibit of the United States in the International Colonial Exposition in Paris, France, ought to include a "jim-crow" car. - Yes, and two American figures, one black and one white, the former being labelled, AMERICAN, and the latter, "Negro," which means, nothing, but does make it unnecessary for people, particularly prejudiced Americans, to refer to them as Americans. Our government has an Indian jazz band in its I. C. E. exhibit which has caused Parisiens to laugh and ask, "Why not a 'Negro' organization if it must have a jazz band?" Yes, why? Because the United States' International Colonial Exposition exhibit color-line would be broken, and that would be "just too bad!" Wouldn't it? WE MUST LEARN TO SAVE. Horn & Hardart Baking Co. of Philadelphia, which has employed around 1000 Afro-Americans, is replacing them with white laborers. Down in Atlanta, Ga., 500 Afro-American porters, employed by the Southern Railway Co., have been let out without a word of explanation. While the Pullman Co. with headquarters in Chicago long ago let out thousands and have not re-employed any of them. This is being done more or less throught the country and ought to if anything will, make our people realize that every year it gets harder and harder for them to make a living in this country; also that in times of prosperity it is best to save and purchase a home rather than an auto, radio, frigidaire, piano, organ, victrola, etc. If you own your own home and get out of work, or get sick and need money, you can always raise it with the property as security. Even in these strenuous days of economic depression, every Sunday afternoon, unless there is a continuous downpour of rain, here in Cleveland there are from one to three lodge parades headed by goodly sized bands, all of which is an unnecessary expense in these strenuous times of unemployment. This same thing characterizes every large city, in this section of the country at least, that has a large population of our people. Lord, have mercy! THE REAL CAUSE. The trustees of Ohio State University's only statement on their dropping of Prof. Herbert A. Miller as a member of the faculty of Ohio's leading educational institution, said that his removal resulted from the support he had given Mahatma Ghandi in the Indian campaign against British rule, and from the professor's views on race relations to which the board said parents of students had objected. As a matter of fact, Prof. Miller's race ideas were by far the more important (in their judgment) of the board's two reasons for his dismissal. These ideas are all set forth in the professor's book, "Races, Nations and Classes," recently published by Lippincott. In a plea for harmony among races delivered here in Cleveland, recently, Prof. Miller said among other things: "It is naively thought that there is an instinctive antipathy between races, but there is no biological foundation for that. It is true that race jump in social development has come from a place where races mix." Very true, very true and internationally known for a century or more. When a Democratic member of the Ohio Legislative committee, before which he appeared, questioned Dr. Miller, he replied that he had studied interracial relations for 30 years, that the problems raised by interracial relations were important "since less than one-third of the population of the world is white," and that "anyone with ordinary powers" could see that a mingling of the races was taking place. He said he had pointed out to his pupils the distinction between natural or biological reasons why races should not intermarry, which, he said, do not exist, and social reasons, which are deeply imbedded in some parts of the world and among some groups of people. He added, however, that he had never advocated inter-racial marriage, and that his teachings on inter-racial relations did not differ from the teachings of other sociologists, anthropologists and psychologists. Asked about taking his class to Wilberforce University, Dr. Miller said the class was studying the "Negro" and that some members had suggested the trip, which was entirely optional. Forty-two members went and the girls were adequately chaperoned, he said. He said that when the class went into a fraternity house he was surprised to see some of the girl visitors dance with Afro-American youths. "The girls told me they preferred to dance with the boys because they were better dancers than the white boys," Dr. Miller said. "I didn't approve of it, but they were approximately 10 years old, being in senior senior juniors, I didn't feel it was my business to tell them I didn't approve." From the foregoing one will readily see what the real cause of Dr. Miller's dismissal was. He says he has "never advocated inter-racial marriage," presumably the inter-marriage of white and black, but possibly the inter-marriage of all races. However, when Dr. Miller said he didn't approve of the O. S. U. girls dancing with our boys at Wilberforce, it surely could not have been that he based the same on race or color, but it must have been because he felt that such social inter-mingling would not meet the approval of the president or trustees of the university. We would like to know positively which, Prof. Miller, because we had that you broad and Democratic enough to stand for inter-marriage and such social mingling as well as for many other phases of the so-called racial question. We want to feel sure that you agree with Dr. Ernest A. Hooten, professor of anthropology at Harvard University, who says: "There are no pure races, 'Nordic' or other, and race mixture is beneficial." Prof. Hooten says plainly that the charges of inferiority against "Negro" races are "scientifically unfounded|and, that in many cases of racial inter-mixture, the children are taller and of bigger vitality than of either of the parent races." He also styles as "a ridiculous boast the claim of 'self-styled Nordics' that they are racially pure and superior to other racial stocks." AN OPPORTUNITY!

Journal, Chicago and San Francisco Examiner, in an article contributed to Wednesday's Daily Express history, announces President Hoover's proposal for a moratorium on war debts. “This plan for revision of war debts,” he writes, “is purely a plan of the international bankers who make their money out of commissions. I pledge unending opposition to this plan to plunder the American people in the interest of foreign nations for which most of these bankers are financial agents, the bankers and the unpatriotic politicians, propose this plan to despoil America and secure for themselves a share in the spoil are sure to learn in a way they will never forget that Americans are not the dupes they are supposed to be. American taxpayers have enough to pay on the obligations they already have incurred and they should not be asked to pay the price of European war frenzy. Any American politician is always to pay for past European wars or to take the feds for future European wars should be impeached by Congress and tried for treason. I subscribe wholeheartedly to denunciation of this scheme as an outrageous piece of robbery and snobbery.” YOU KNOW ME. AL THERE GOES ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE ATLANTIC FLYERS WHERE?

Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted moo violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law.

The Ohio law follows: BS. ed. representative of victim of lynching by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. inst member of mob. inst another county. Section 6283.

(93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: 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 accommodations, allows facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined 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 fine, and 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. E, AL WHERE?

GEORGIA FRENCH CHEER DIAGNE! Presents Medals to War Veterans— Makes a Great Speech, Too. Paris, Paris. — Presentation of medals to French war veterans at their reunion held recently at the Sorbonne was made by M. Diagne, member of the French cabinet. Following the playing of the Marsellfalse, M. Diagne made a speech, and the vast audience, all white, applauded him for several minutes, until he had got up again and bowed. Later he presented the medals to the veterans and the certificates to the orphans of soldiers, all seemed highly contented. The nearest American approach we have to Diagne is Congressman DePriest, who is in shimon-pure black and a man superior.

White and Freed (white) are American composers resident in Paris and this is the first time that an Afro-American composer has had a string quartet of his played in Paris since the days of George A. Bridgetower, who was the first person to play the Kreutzer Sonata of Beethoven's—conducted by himself. Mr. White is working on a opera, dueting Dessalines, Haitian emperor, and is studying with Raoul La Parra, the famous French composer. This foreign study was made possible by the Rosenwald Fellowship, which was awarded to Mr. White for a period of two years. Denounces U. S. Treaty. Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

BOYDSTON POST'S BANQUET Boydston post's banquet, Tuesday evening, in honor of the state commander and county chairman of the American legion, John A. Elden and Vernon Charlney respectively, in the *P* W. A., proved a very felicitous event. Jerry H. Walker chairman of the banquet committee introduced Mr. Elden. A number of city officials were in attendance City Law Director Harold H. Burton, in extending the greetings of the city in the absence of City Manager "Blossom" Morgan and gratified the post's own world of achievement and said the legion was not merely an offshoot of the A. E. F., but its soul. Also, that loyalty and Democracy should be its distinguishing feature as well as that of the post. Councilman L. O. Payne, a former commander of the post, in replying to Mr. Burton's speech said the legion had brot to America "a new kinship between colored and white soldiers." Garrett Morgan, Pete Hill and Sidney Golson, there were the post's guard of the post. Others were Judge John P. Dempsey, Councilman John L. Mileich, Atty, Selmo C. Glenn and Rev. W. H. McKinney. The other members of the banquet committee were Harry Gibson, Harry Williams, Wm. B. Saunders and Samuel V. Perry. "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 dollars 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 bugle it.—The Old Reliable Gazette, Cleveland, O. June 13, "31." (Special to The Gazette) Washington, D. C., June 15, "31. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. My Dear Editor;—Your appeal (given above) to "Save St. James" calls attention to the fact that many of our church organizations throut the country are experiencing great difficulty, during these days of depression, in holding or even properly maintaining large numbers of landmarks and buildings that are exceedingly costly edifices. To a great many people this condition suggests that as a group we have about reached the SATURATION point in the possession of church property. In this connection it is interesting to note that the value of church property (land, edifices and furniture) owned by whites in the United States represents less than SIX per cent of the value of the owned farms operated by them, whereas owning a group the value of church property is in excess of thirty-seven per cent of the value of our owned farms. In Ohio, for instance, our church property is valued at $9,113,989 (not including Wilberforce) while our owned farm-property has a value of only $4,173,124, or less than one-half the value of our edifices. Nearly ten million dollars are invested in what is frequently referred to as FROZEN ASSETS while there is probably not a business enterprise in the state, owned by members of our group, in which of young or old men and women ar employed. Church property is compared with farm property for the reason that everyone needs a drink or wear comes from the earth, a fact that is recognized by the whites who seem to think that they must eat with some degree of regularity even before they can finance and build church edifices. Agriculturally, Ohio is an important state, ranking in eighth place in the highest number of farms; in ninth place in the value of land and buildings, and occupies the tenth highest rank in the value of its crops; therefore, to establish an alibi that Ohio is not an agricultural state.

CAREFUL DRIVING IS BEST SAFETY One of Cardinal Principles Is Keeping Car Under Full Control. One of the nine cardinal principles of careful driving, points out the Silvertown Safety league, is to drive at speeds in keeping with the safety of others as well as one's self. This means keeping the speed of one's car under full control at all times, so that when unforeseen emergencies arise the car may be stopped instantly. Coasting Downhill. A warning against coasting downhill with the motor out of gear was recently issued by Owen B. Augsburger, president of the New York Automobile club. The Silvertown Safety league fully endorses this warning, and cautions all motorists who would avoid accidents to guard against the practice. The car coming downhill with its gear shift lever in neutral gainus momentum at an ever-increasing pace and its driver must rely solely upon his brakes, or accelerate his engine and "double-clutch" to get back in gear, Mr. Augspurger points out. This latter is dangerous and can be accomplished by only a skilled driver. The brakes may catch fire, an additional hazard. On the other hand, with the motor in gear, a retarding action occurs which tends to keep the car under control so that the brakes are not forced to bear all the strain. In coming down very steep grades shifting into second gear is recommended as in this position a more powerful braking effect is obtained. To Promote Safety. The Silvertown Safety league is studying the causes and effects of motor car accidents in its current national campaign to promote safety. Motorists are invited to enroll by signing a pledge to observe nine simple rules of safe driving. There is no charge for joining the league. Members receive an attractive radiator emblem. Rules for Pedestrians' Safety Are Suggested Nation-wide records received by the California State Automobile association show that pedestrians figured in 55 per cent of motor vehicle fatalities in the United States last year. The following rules for pedestrians' safety are suggested by the motorists' organization: 1. Never cross a street at a controlled crossing except on the green light or upon signal of the officer. 2. At uncontrolled crossings look first to the left before starting across the street and to the right upon reaching the center. 3. When the way is clear, proceed without hesitation. Never run. 4. If caught in a traffic tangle, stand still and allow the cars to proceed. Do not attempt to dodge back and forth. Agriculturists Living on Surfaced Highways Somewhere between one-fourth and one-half of the farmers in the United States are served by highways surfaced with sand clay, gravel or better materials, investigation shows, based on census and highway reports. At present the United States has approximately 700,000 miles of surfaced roads. The total number of farms is nearly 6,208,000 and the complete 1930 farm population is 27,222,000, an average of 4.3 persons per farm. If all the farm residents were spread evenly along the 3,000,000 miles of roads in this country, there would be an average of nine persons per mile. On that basis more than one-fourth of the farmers live along surfaced highways, Spring Leaf Breakage Spring leaves are not so likely to break as they once were. However, if clips and U-bolts are not kept tight they may. In event of breakage, the motorist need not be greatly concerned unless it is the master leaf that sucumbs. If it is one of the other leaves, one may be able to drive many thousands of miles without further trouble provided the clips and bolts are tightened regularly. Brake Inspection Plan Liked by Three States Three states are about to consider laws to eliminate faulty brakes. This has been brought to light by a survey in connection with the nation-wide movement to outlaw motorists who drive cars with worn or badly adjusted brakes. Automobile authorities state that bad brakes cause a large percentage of the accidents which are killing more than 30,000 people a year and sending 900,000 others to hospitals. "In New York," says a report on the survey, "bills have been introduced in the senate and assembly for the annual inspection of brakes by the motor vehicle department and the appointment of official brake inspection stations in all parts of the state. A penalty clause calls for a fine of $10 or ten days imprisonment, or both, for motorists who fail to comply. Similar bills are pending before the New Jersey and Minnesota legislatures. "So far as can be ascertained, there is no active opposition to the adoption of these bills and it is expected that they will be passed within the next few weeks. "In California, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and the District of Columbia, new legislation is in force to compel periodical brake inspection and to bring about safer driving conditions but in the remainder of the states there is little or no official regulation of brakes, which form one of the most conspicuous contributors to traffic fatalities."

AUTOMOBILE FACTS The automotive industry uses $2 per cent of all rubber consumed in the United States. Gasoline has a tendency to dull the finish of most cars and should never be applied in washing except to remove the grease. Tar can be removed from the finish of automobiles by applying a solution comprising equal parts of turpentine and wood alcohol. Many people are now living to a remarkably old age. Some of them would live even longer if it were not for the hit-and-run drivers. One automobile unit which service experts find universally escapes the attention of the owner is the rear wheel bearing. Remove these bearings and retainers twice yearly and give them a thorough bath in kerosene. Then repack in ge.d cup grease. More frequently used than any other keys, which which unlock various features of the automobile deserve the most prominent places on the motorist's keyring. An excellent practice used by many owners is to place ignition and transmission keys at the extreme ends of the keyholder. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 72, 1931 WITH THE WHITE SATIN EVENING GOWN A JACKET OF WHITE VELVET 1930 KNITTED AND CROCHET EFFECTS, NOVEL FABRICS FOR SUMMER HATS THE HAT. WHITE, the pet theme for spring and summer of 1931, is being played up with increasing enthusiasm. The vogue for white has particularly reacted to the glory of the little jacket. There is nothing more decidedly up-to-the-moment in the way of a summer outfit for daytime wear, than the dark skirt or one-piece frock which is topped with a jacket of either white satin, white crepe or white velvet. For these stunning jackets, the pure snowy white known as St. Moritz white is preferred to the creamy tones, and we see it in street, sports and afternoon costumes and it is particularly featured for formal evening costumes. Very lovely are the white evening ensembles which are in the majority at most smart gatherings. The model pictured tops a stately molded-to-the-figure white satin gown of intricate seaming (a type very fashionable this season) with a striking wrap of white Lyons velvet. The three-quarter sleeves are cut in one with the fronts of the jackets. The softly rolled collar and the one-button closing are features which give distinction to this adorable velvet fantasy. KNITTED AND CRO NOVEL FABRICS SO FAR as fashionable millinery is concerned, when it comes to the media employed the program is that widely diversified it includes types ranging from the thinnest hair braids and bodies, the finest milions and leghorns and the very sleek exotics to straws which pride themselves on being handsome "in the rough." The unusual registers even to a greater degree in the novel knitted effects and diverse fabrics which go to make up this season's smartest hats. Hats of knitted visco, of knitted wool and knitted synthetic yarns are the rage. Choice trends to the little "rag of a hat" which is nothing in the hand but upon the head it tells a story of millinery art. However, all is not slimpsy and supple that is knitted for some of the latest models from Paris pride themselves in having brims which are stiffened and wired into permanent shapeless. Just such is the brimmed shape shown in the lower left corner of the accompanying picture. It features the very new, crochet hat with a brim and feather in one of its smartest phases. Another type which smart Parisiennes are wearing is the hat which has a straw brim with a knit stock- y Your Copy or an Acqu It is interesting to note that the newest printed silks likewise reflect the importance of white. Frequently the entire design is silhouetted in white against a single-color background. Phosphorescent florals is a name given to a type of print in which the petals are outlined with such a clear white they seem to take on a phosphorescent glow. In buying material for yet another midsummer gown be guided with the fact that prints with lots of white in them are the latest call of the mode. To stress the importance of white wear a jacket of white velvet, for the little wrap of this sort is not restricted to evening wear but made simply is very smart during the daytime hours. Which reminds us, a sports frock of white flat crepe topped with a tailored white velvet coat interprets chic at its best. For that matter the velvet jacket in any color makes its appearance most any hour of the day, a favorite ensemble being the white dress worn with a red coatette for there is nothing smarter in the color range this season than red with white.

Looks impossible for the crown sinks to oblivion in the hand, but worn, the way that crown conforms to the curves of the head and looks stylish is marvelous. The hat pictured to the right at the top in the illustration is one of the exceedingly chic models whose soft knitted crown is brimmed with stiff straw. Midsummer hats are being made of all sorts of dress fabrics: Sheer cotton, especially organde, embroidered and eyedeted batiste and linens, printed fabrics, plaids and stripes, taffetas and crepes. Caps made of georgette similar to the one in white which is centered in this group are recent arrivals coming via Paris. Their simplicity is their fascination. The wide soft band is made of millinery folds braided together as the sketch shows. Allover embroidery is the material for the brimmed hat shown first in the group. The material is eyelined as openwork effects are highlighted throughout the mode. The brim is starched and wired at the edge. The concluding sketch shows one of the very smart starched linen models which is machine stitched in fancy design. CHERIE NICHOLAS. (© 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) oy of The aintance w COLOR-LINE SEGREGATION IN HOSPITALS AND, Y. M. C. A.'s HERE IN THE NORTH, DENOUNCED! Urge "Jim Crow Ys." (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 to accommodate the disabled. Many of our physicians in North from southern sections 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. Euclid Ghee, son of the well-known physician, 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, studiousness and good sense, he has been able to lead 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 practice and operate in first-class hospitals, and 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 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 velling for "race hospitals," "Jim-crow Y's," etc., because they are not prepared to prepare their trade or enter "Y's" among the drug companies. The day of race accommodations, to cover over 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 open-door for equipment and Crisp Plaid Net A By EMMA LOU FETTA ONCE in a while there appears a real fashion surprise that fulfills a number of important requirements and such a discovery is always thrilling to any woman of taste. The latest thing of that sort that I have come across is a new development in durene cotton net with at least five qualities to make it important in any wardrobe for the summer days that are approaching so rapidly. This net is cool, crisp, soft. It launder well and does not shrink. It is smooth, adaptable for sheer, smart dresses, for chic street and spectator sports wear, or even for swanky beach pajamas to be worn over bathing suits. The plaid suit above which could be used either for street or sports wear is of sheer quality and yet it actually stronger than a heavier, coarser cotton might be. It has that most valuable asset of dainti-ness. It will always look crisp and fine, but never take on that clingy, as slinky appearance which is so destructive of feminine charm when the thermometer rises and the town streets begin to radiate a dusty heat. qualification our men in every walk of life must take their places along side of prepared men and not only colored men. Perhaps the "Negro" ministry is a great slimmer in this particular. Too much loud-mouthed payout and mouthed colored men schlock today, having only a stentorian voice as their principle asset. Too many colored ministers, who 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 money out of them. A very little loud-mouthed practice is made by our ministry to uplift and reour churches. Men are preaching who cannot use correct English and many of them are not third grade pupils in grammar schools. These race-churches, like what physicians call "race hospitals," are doing more injury to religion than help. Negro ministers and physicians should be the equals in every way of the ministers and physicians of all other races. ROSENWALD SCORED! For Building a "Chinese Wall" of "Separation, Discrimination and Segregation" Nationally—Plain Unvarnished Truth. Madison, New Jersey. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, The Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Kind Sir:—I know you are a busy man; therefore, my remarks will be brief: (1) For many years I have concluded that the Julius Rosenwald system of "Christian Philanthropy" (I think that is the operating name) in erecting and maintaining schools in M.A. buildings, exclusively "Negro," was limited to the best interests of every community where recognized. (a) It creates, perpetuates and accentuates a class and caste spirit, un-American and directly opposed to principles of Christianity.—Matt. 7:12; John 1:13; 34; Matt. 20: 8-10; 12-14. (b) The cornerstone of the equal opportunity for all men in all fields of endeavor, without partiality, prejudice or hypocrisy!"—2 Cor. 8:14, 15. (c) The platform of the Christian religion—"God is our father; Christ our Redeemer; the Holy Ghost our comforter; and all, we are brethren!"—Gai. 3:26, 9; are bethren!]—Gai. 3:26, 9. By Julius Rosenwald's method of charity as announced "exclusively for Negroes." (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? Did the white population protest against their "colored brother" having the same disease, the same accidents and maladies they have, that "hospitals exclusively Negro" are statewide necessities? (3) Does he not see ultimately (if his system becomes a success) the created national, racial, religious and social "Chinese wall" of separation, discrimination and seduction that will be erected and enforced (in a spiteful spirit) by both peoples of our American civilization?—Gal. 6:7. Respectfully submitted, Rev. Geo. Wilson Brent. Madison, N. J. 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 most of the voters 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 state had enough votes in this state to nominate one of their number for a state office. We have received many others. Now comes "Ummo Same" 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 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 earlier, we are already within our rights to claim a total population in the state of Ohio of (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. 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. USE THE POOLS AND THE BEACHES! Competent Guards - Learned Instructional Girls and Adult Classes Use the city bathing and swimming pools and beaches. They are OURS, too. We pay taxes, all of us do—have to whether we want to or not. They are all open and in the best of condition and under the care of competent guards who have been provided with every possible means of safety for children. There is the same policy concerning free admission to the youngsters under fifteen years of age, from ten to twelve Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings. Learned instructors will supervise the special classes for beginners and advanced swimmers which will be in full force thrust the summer. The beginning class for boys will be held between ten and eleven and the one for the girls between eleven and twelve for morning; advanced swimmers will be in the afternoon. The pools will open from ten in the morning to ten at night, weather permitting, during which time events such as free style, backstroke, and novelty races will be run off in preparation for the grand meet on the fourth of July. The directors and guards are willingly waiting to aid the children in every way possible. The city playgrounds have started preparing for the July 4 parade, and the gala festival that will be held at the close of the season. RANSOM ON WILBERFORCE. Says It Is the Greatest Legacy Ever Bestowed Upon Afro-Americans, In His Commencement Address. Wilberforce, O.—"If the lotty ambitions of men and women are not to be realized, we might as well say 'To Hell with America,'" declared Bishop Reverdy C. Ransom, of the A. M. E. Church in his address to the graduates of the University here, recently. The tall, grey-haired churchman, a graduate of W. U., who came to the institution fifty years ago, issued a challenge to the church to come out into the world "to right wrongs and to make crooked things straight." "Wilberforce University," declared Bishop Ransom, "is the greatest legacy ever bestowed upon Americans of African descent. It was not really bestowed, but achieved—achieved out of the faith, the aspirations and the courage of valiant men such as Bishop Daniel Payne, A. Shorter and John G. Mitchell. "There are some who would say that Wilberforce is lacking when compared with Howard, Lincoln and Fisk universities. Here we have schools supported largely by white philanthropy and even from governmental funds. Wilberforce has carried on largely through the efforts of Negroes."
