Hold Woman and Hunt Man Ac- cused—Alleged Victim, Arthur Wynne.
Detectives, late Monday, were seeking a real estate salesman alleged to have plotted the death of Arthur Wynne, age 35, of Haworthorne Ave. A woman, who, police say, has admitted her part in the plot, is being held. Wynne, according to his story to police, made a deal with the salesman to purchase property in Cleveland Heights. After the sale was made Wynne and the real estate salesman were to resell the property at a higher price and split the profit. Wynne made a down payment of $1,000 on the purchase but later canceled the check. The poison attempt, he said, was made then by the woman to whom the salesman had offered $200 to "put Wynne out of the way." The poison in the form of three tablets had been placed, Sergent Hogan said the woman has confessed, in when he arrived at her home, "last week Wednesday. But he detected the poison when he tasted it. A warrant charging the woman, Mrs. Lillian J. Downey, age 38, of 12003 Ashbury Ave., with administering poison was sworn to, late Monday, by Detective Sergeant Patrick Ryan, attache of the county prosecutor's office.
White Methodist Group Seek to Arouse Public Opinion Against It.
Fayetteville, Ark.—Forty women from five states, attending a training school of the M. E. Church, South on Mt. Sequoyah, have signed a paper, pledging themselves to seek to arouse public opinion in their communities against lynching. The document says: "We recognize all lynching will be defended so long as the public generally accepts the assumption that it is for protection of white women. We are not only to our own times but to posterity to repudiate acts of mobs and lynchers and declare that if our constitution, our laws, our courts cannot protect women, then our civilization is a travesty and our religion a mockery."
"Put Cleveland to Work."
You remember, of course, the city's slogan in last fall's political campaign (during the "bonds" campaign of the fall of 1929):
"Put Cleveland to Work."
Everywhere were banners and posters. "Put Cleveland to Work." The newspapers printed the slogan in big type and little, and orators shrieked. "Put Cleveland to Work!"
But, of course, nobody thought at that time the work was to be ushering at a prize fight.—John W. Raper in The Cleveland Press.

Mrs. Prioleau Wins Anther Segregation Case in California—The Judge's Sweeping Decision.
Los Angeles, Cal.—The case of Mrs. Ethel Stafford, widow of U. S. Chaplain Geo. W. Prioleau, against the Los Angeles playground commission to restrain the commission from segregating certain citizens and taxpayers has resulted in a complete victory for Mrs. Prioleau. It had been attempted to limit members of our community, but Mrs. Prioleau took up the cudgel in the interest of an outraged citizenry and her efforts were rewarded, last week, when Judge Gates of the Los Angeles superior court issued a sweeping order prohibiting the playground commission from designating certain days for different races to use the municipal swimming pools and ordered the public pools thrown wide open to all races, irrespective of color.
GERMAN REPARATIONS
Small Incomes of More Than Ninety
Percent of working Germans—
1980-1990
Berlin, Germany. —The reparations which Germany pays are $412,000,000 a year, or about $5.90 a year for every German man, woman and child. But $5.90 per capita is far more important to a German than to an American. Ninety-two per cent of workmen have incomes of less than $600 a year. Worse than that—85 per cent have only $450 a year. To these people reparations loom as important figures. Even these low wages are subject to income tax. The basis exemption for a single man is $300 a year, with a 10 per cent tax on wages from there. The tax is worth only $30 by way of additional exemption and the first child a like amount. From 1924 to 1930 German floated $1,816,000,000 worth of long time foreign bonds. Who bought them? American investors bought $1,097,000,000 worth, or more than 60 per cent. So the United States would be the big loser if Germany collapsed.

Braxton, Miles M. Dawson, Miles M. Dawson & Son, Inc., and Clara Christopher, Alfred B. Dawson, son of Miles Dawson, who committed suicide, June 21, in his New York mansion, where he charged in the bill of complaint, for all officers and directors of the N. B. L. I. Co. over a period of years. The partnership of Miles Dawson & Son was charged with actively adding and abetting a syndicate, known as Rutherford-Smith-and Rutherford, in illegal schemes, instead of preserving and protecting the interests of the company as actuaries. The former directors are said to have caused to be paid to Miles Dawson & Son more than $300,000 in three years. Rutherford, Smith and Rutherford were charged with making improper contributions of funds of the insurance company, etc. It is also alleged that in taking over the Standard Life Insurance Co. of Atlanta, in 1927, they deceived the Superior court of Georgia by filing a statement that the assets of the N. B. L. I. Co. exceeded its liabilities. Numerous charges are brought against others named in the foregoing. It is a mess. The syndicate is said to have effected a loan of $279,000 with the Central Navl Bank of Cleveland, cancelling it and are alleged to have pretended to have obtained a Guarantee of $250,000 from Guarantee Trust Co. of Cleveland, which is alleged to still hold the personal note of the syndicate as security for the loan which is now alleged to be in default.
OUO VADIS?
Editor The News:—For two or more weeks previous to last Friday night Cleveland and its suburban towns were in a state of frenzy over two men who were relics of the Dark Ages when men were rated great because of their brute power and endurance. I have been astounded at the interest manifested by so-called intelligent civilized men and women in this fistful of the Dark Ages. I am wondering whither we as a nation are tending. These exhibitions excite only the brutal nature of our youth and when once this is developed we shoot down and send to prison and the electric chair the poor wretches for something we have made and developed. Is it not time that our churches we awakened? Are we not following in the wake of nations that once thrived on such vices?

SENDING OUR SOLDIERS TO "JIM-CROW TRAIN- ING CAMPS IN VIRGINIA AND ELSEWHERE.
National Bar Association's Silly Order Repudiated by Northern Branches—Superior to Many Southern Whites — Federal Government's "Southern Virus."
(Special to The Gazette)
Jersey City, N. J. — The order issued by The War Department, refusing to allow a soldier of color, in New York, to go with his company, because he is colored, but separates him and sends him to the training camp in Virginia, is unfair, wicked and unjustified. The war department is issuing discrimination, based on color, creed or race. The War Department is bound hand and foot by the "southern virus," racial segregation. If white men of the north, east and west serve with our men as equals why should not the south be made to do so also when anything touching the government is concerned? We protest against this species of oppression, not because we feel the camp at Virginia is inferior in training or that the persons there are inferior to those who serve with our men as equals is done with the view of making our soldier feel he is not worthy of associating with white soldiers when in camp and that if he is admitted it smacks of race equality.
Senators, representatives and national committee must wake up and see to it that this evil ceases. The President of the U. S. A. is head of the army. It is his duty to see to it that every soldier, commissioned or in the making, receives fair play and nothing be done to reflect upon any, the decrees of War. Difficult knows that this order is destructive of discipline and goodwill. The time has come that our soldiers will refuse to fight or become a soldier, when it is impossible for them to receive what other soldiers get. Why single out this colored boy when there are Italian boys, Irish boys, Polish boys and every imaginable race of boys in training at Plattsburgh, N. Y.? The War Department may think the colored boy is inferior socially to white boys, but the boy does not think so and neither do the citizens think so. If inferiority is apparent, it is found in the ones responsible for the issuing of this vicious order.
To all concerned: Change the order and discipline those issuing it. If not, this thing will disrupt the War Department and drive colored men away from it, as a thing to be scorned.
The National Bar Association, headquarters at Washington, D. C., insists that only white lawyers of good reputation can belong to it. New Jersey, New York and Connecticut branches of the association have entered a protest against this colorline decision and voted to withdraw from the association. The order. The educated and intelligent colored man is as much discriminated against by the south as the uneducated one. The branches of the National Bar Association have the power to change this situation. If the other branches would do as the ones mentioned, the association would change, or go out of business.
It is a healthy sign to find in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut able lawyers who refuse to belong to a lawyers' association that refuses to admit colored lawyers. One of the evidences of the south's deterioration is its tenacious grasp at superiority where it sees it has none. The moral twist in southern people that turn up their noses at colored people, who are really better educated than southern whites, have a finer sense of moral values than most whites, south or north, and refuse to violate the ethics of fair play as do the whites, is deplorable.
Unfortunate for Washington, D.C., it is the citadel of racial oppression and discrimination, based upon nothing but the imaginary superiority of the "political south." It is time now that the capital of the nation reflect the real spirit of America. Color-line and refusal to grant colored people the courtesies that be expected from wives and spouses in Washington. Foreign nations laugh at our sense of fairplay when they see and witness the vicious and humiliating discrimination put upon Colored-Americans. All of the self-respecting colored people, together with the same kind of whites, must insist that Washington, D.C., at least take its place in the ranks of civilized and humane cities. The federal government is tainted with racism and sentimentally is in the saddle at Washington. Southern traditions rule there. Southern injustice stinks to high heaven there. Colored voters

One of the difficulties in the way of changing it, is the willingness of educated Negroes of the south, who may be reluctant to accept it and smile, calling the discriminators "our best friends."
PETER H.
The desire of colored men to be in bar associations, civic organizations, etc., is not born of any desire to have social relations with the idea that by having it they are elevated to the highest part of everything that makes for the highest good to all. The day, that pigment of skin determines the in-
A. E. H.
feriority or superiority of individuals, is passed. The real colored man of worth goes into these associations feeling that he is neither exaltred nor humiliated but he is just a human being of parts like others. The present old constitution of the National Bar Association is a contradiction of the traditional law and lawyers. Change it or otherwise (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd
WHAT BECAME
OF ALEXANDER?
More than 2,000 Protest His Disp
perance—Was He Lynch.
AUTHOR: JOHN R. BURKE
Barberton, O.—More than 2,000 northern Ohio Communists held their "protest meeting" in Edgewood Park here, last week Thursday evening. There was no disorder. They gathered to protest the disappearance, last February, of C. Louis Alexander, Afro-American Communist organizer. Three Barberton police were "cleared" in court of charges of having abducted Alexander. Two previously attempted meetings to discuss the case were broken up by police, regular and "special," with tear gas and clubs. The last one, which ended in a riot at Lake Anna Park, June 26, resulted in the clubbing of Akron newspaper men and is being investigated. And Summit County grand jury, Lake Week Thursday's meeting was held with the written permission of Mayor S. A. Decker, who is bitter against the Communists. To make way for it, the Barberton West Side Civic Association postponed a band concert and ice cream festival, scheduled to have been held in Edgewood Park that evening.

IN-UNION
IN STRENGTH
10,000,000 Afro-Americans.
325,000 in Ohio.
75,000 in Cleveland.
For the benefit of all of our contemporaries we desire to say that the Cleveland City hospital was opened to our internes and its nurse-training school opened to our girls to train, by the Walz resolution which passed the City council of Cleveland the first of last year. This was the culmination of a three-year fight waged by The Gazette, ably assisted by the late Geo. A. Myers.
We have watched carefully the progress of the official investigation of Barberton, O., officials, inaugurated recently, by Gov. George White at the request of a number of leading citizens of the little "match" city and have failed to notice hardly any reference to the disappearance of the Afro-American Communist, C. Louis Alexander, that to have been lynchmurdered by Barberton police. Surely the Communists of Akron (very near Barberton), who have been so active in the little town in recent months, are not going to fail to have Alexander's mysterious disappearance "aired" thoroly during the official investigation now on and probed thereafter? That matter is far more important than the subsequent demonstrations and the riot complained of.
President Hoover is becoming very angry over what the newspapers say about him.
How'd he feel if he knew what the voters say about him?—John W. Raper in The Cleveland Press.
He would feel like "side-stepping" the Republican renomination, next year. And if the industrial plants of the country do not begin opening up, this fall, and giving employment to the hundreds of thousands of voters out of work, it will be "just too bad" for the President, and the rest of the Republican ticket, in the fall of 1932. The "economic depression" of 1895 ruined President Grover Cleveland's chances for re-election, and the "economic depression" of 1931 will do the same thing for our present Chief Executive, if a start at putting the unemployed men and women of the country to work is not made, early this fall.
POOL AND BEACH COLOR-LINE.
The widow of U. S. Chaplain Geo. W. Prioleau, who resides in Los Angeles, Cal., has just about stopped bath-house, swimming pool, beach segregation and color-line drawing which grew up under that city's playground commission. She has taken the matter into the courts several times, the latest being in recent weeks', and won every time.
Here in Cleveland, with three members of the city council, a member of the civil service commission and school-board, it is difficult to believe that our people are being so miserably mistreated at Gordon Park beach, Woodland Hills swimming pool and other beaches and pools of the city. And yet, this is the case, we regret to say.
We have not heard that Los Angeles has even one councilman, to say nothing of three; a civil service commissioner or a member of the schoolboard, and yet, please note carefully what has been accomplished there under the leadership of one lone woman, and she a widow. There is a simple solution of the local segregation and color-line problem referred to, which it seems, "The Blossom Triplets", Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy, ought long ago to have invoked, and that is to have Director of Public Service Edwin D. Barry place a couple of Afro-American policemen at the swimming pool, or on the beach, wherever there is an inclination to unjustly and illegally discriminate against our people. That will settle the matter and settle it right. If "The Blossom Triplets" with the aid of our civil service commissioner and our school-board member do not do this soon, the season for such activities, this year, will be at an end.
A
The ROUNDER
WHAT'S DOING!
Local Afro-Americans are complaining of discrimination at the public bath houses, pools and beaches. Is there anything that will make "The Blossom Triplets" wake up and do their duty to their constituents of color. It really is a shame that amounts to an outrage—their neglect of them.
The Rounder was sauntering up the avenue (Central), the other day, when a "brother" approached him and said:
"When Tom Flemins was in the Council, all by his self, we had twice as many men working for the city as we were working for three (The Blossom Triplets') in the council."
You know that rather startled The Rounder, for a moment, because of the large element of truth in what the "brother" had remarked. As a matter of fact, he had said a "mouthful."
A sure solution of our people's trouble at the Woodland Hills and other public bath-houses, pools and beaches would be the placing of Afro-American policemen wherever the kuklux and other prejudiced elements of the community show a disposition to make trouble for our people. This is another thing that would have been done long ago if "The Blossom Triplets" were "worth a dime to their people."
Our candidates for the City council in the third and fourth districts are beginning to "perk up." Rev. J. W. Ribbins Dr. "Jimmie" Owens, and Mrs. J. L. Rogers, all Democrats, are the latest entries in the third district to oppose Undertaker Jes Rogers, Dr. E. J. Gregg, Alfred C Perry, Councilmen Payne and Bundy, Republicans.
In the fourth district Councilman George will have Atty. Louise Pridgeon, and possibly one other Afro-American candidate, as running mate Atty. Pridgeon is as popular as George is unpopular with the masses of our residents in that district.
No one expects former State Representative Perry B. Jackson to remain in the fight in the second district where the number of our voters is small as compared with the total of his ward and the district "The Blossom Triplets" are thru Perry!
Some "Hot Ones."
The boys around E. 55th and Central say that all of the boys who could not pass (for white) were not allowed to act as ushers at the Schmeling-Stribling fight because they didn't want to offend the many "crackers" present. Better start using a "bleach" for the next fight, they say. The fight should have been called the heavy-weight championship battle of the world's (prejudiced) cowards. If given a chance, Geo. Godfrey could whip both of them in the same evening.
When the World's Y. M. C. A. meets here on Aug. 4, ask the French delegates to explain the meaning of "Christian" as used in the Young Men's Christian Association. Again prejudice!
It is rumored that some of our outstanding professional men acted as ushers at the fight. We don't believe any of them could have done such a thing—or rather we won't believe it until someone produces the proof.
A Gold Star mother who had returned from France said they met with absolutely no prejudice in going over, in France or in returning home. How could they see any prejudice or segregation when they were "jim-crowed"—blacks brown and "high yallers"—on a freight boat.
PORKER SAVES
FARMER'S 'PHONE
Business is business and Miller got the hog. But the farmer kept the telephone and retained his status as a telephone subscriber. Perhaps this is one of the most unique methods of keeping business that an employee of any company has adopted, but it produced results when E. G. Miller, a Wellsville employee of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company, called at a farm home to take the telephone.
He found the farmer butchering a hog. Making a few quick calculations, he asked the farmer if the telephone were not needed to secure orders for the meat. It was, but the crux of the matter was a bill of long standing.
Said Miller: "Sell me the pork. Part of the money you receive will pay your telephone bill, and you'll still have the telephone."
Said the Farmer: "O. K." And everyone was satisfied, except, perhaps, the hog, whose opinion was not consulted.
Of the world's telephones, 67.8 per cent are in privately owned and operated systems.

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:

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 representation, having a like right of action as one purpose, be killed or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynchings, 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, with the costs of action, in each such exceeding 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 fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. At such lynching a pellettie at such lynching shall be deemed member of the mob and be liable to such action. (493 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 there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.)
Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.)
OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: 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 color, the full enjoyment of the accommodation, the fees 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 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 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 court.

Again the question was asked at a public mass meeting in Barberton: What happened to the colored Communist agitator, C. Louis Alexander, who disappeared mysteriously after falling into the hands of the police? Again, June 27, the question was answered by savage brutality on the part of the police, with black jackets, billy-clubs, and tear-gas bombs, and a mob of citizens led by "special deputies." Besides a score of Communist sympathizers who were injured, other citizens suffered. Houses of people near the square, people who had no interest in the dispute, were flooded with gas and rendered unlivable for the night. Barberton official, John Stench, gas masked and stench in the nostrils of the whole state. They do not help to make Ohio a pleasant place to live for people who believe in orderly government. The violence with which the Barberton police react to every pub lie inquiry into the fate of the missing Negro Communist does not tenn to lessen public curiosity as to what actually did happen to him.

ABILITY MEASURES PERSON'S SUCCESS
"Success in life is relative," says Walter S. Gifford, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company in a recent issue of Forbes Magazine.
"In my judgment, success means making the most of such ability, personality and physique as you have. Don't measure your success against others, but against your own potentialities. Never fret because someone else has done better.
"If you become imbued with this philosophy of life and sincerely try to do the best you can, and achieve the sincere feeling that you are doing the best that you are capable of, you have attained as much success as any man can attain. More than that, you will, on that basis, go just as far as you can go."
In communities of less than 50,000 population, the United States ranks highest among the countries of the world in telephone development. Here, there are 12 telephones per 100 population in these communities. Canada ranks second with 10.

She said her son is only 14. The court determined she been indefinitely postponed pending the U. S. Supreme Court. Traffic at St. Clair Ave, and Addison Rd. was held up as the Communists headed for the mass meeting, crashed the traffic light at the intersections.

"Eugene heard of a job he was in Memphis and started out on a train earlier. On the way he and the other colored boys had a fight with some white boys and girls and they were arrested.

For more than three long years The Gazette fought desperately to open Cleveland's City hospital to the training of our boys and girls, and it is with no small degree of pleasure and satisfaction we publish the letter, elsewhere in this paper, addressed to Dr. Joe T. Thomas of this city, who continues an activity in connection with the training of our boys and girls at City hospital, that is most creditable indeed. Our students entered last fall, and our interest in the work of Dr. On. On the whole, the former have made, since September 29, 1930, a very creditable showing, which augurs well for the future in each case. Now that the Cleveland City hospital school of nursing is also open to our girls, as Dr. Thomas well suggests it is the duty of our local ministers, and others, to broadcast the necessity of supplying new care to enter it, September next. There are many Cleveland girls who are attending schools of nursing in New York City, Washington, D. C., and other far distant points, whose parents and relatives would much prefer to have them here at home while studying for their chosen profession. There are, too, still many who do not know that one of the finest schools of nursing in this country is open to at Cleveland's city hospital. Therefore, we suggest that this splendid opportunity be broadcast and our girls seeking to become trained-nurses, encouraged to make application promptly for admission to it.
VERY HIGH TRIBUTE
PAID COLLEGE HEADS
Chattanooga Daily Commends Fine Work of President W. J. Hale—"82,000,000 Plant a Monument to His Ability."
Chattanooga, Tenn., July 11.—The Chattanooga Times, one of the South leading daily papers, this week published a letter to the and work of President W. J. Hale of Tennessee A. & I. College, whose two million dollar plant, according to the Times, is a monument to President Hale's tact, ability and tireless efforts. Following an excellent story about the college in Sunday Times, the following fine Salute on President Hale's work was given conspicuous place on Monday:
"All who read in 'The Chattanooga Sunday Times of yesterday' the article on Dr. W. J. Hale and the Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial State College must have been agreeably impressed. There is cause for pride in the fact that Tennessee has produced such a noted Negro educator and provided such a magnificent institution for the advancement of the Negroes of the State.
"Due to his self-effacing disposition, Dr. Hale, although he has been awardly honored with the Harmon award for distinguished service and in other ways, has never received the degree of public notice that has gone to some public notice preserving members of his race. His rise from the position of a poor Negro boy on an East Tennessee farm to the presidency of one of the country's outstanding educational institutions for Negroes has been due to devotion to duty and hard work and has been unaccompanied by blare of trumpets.
"And-Dr. Hale is not an educator only. He is also a builder and a highly capable executive. The Tennessee Agricultural and Industrial University was founded in 1912 with one building and which has grown until it is valued at $2,000,000, is in a large measure a monument to the tac, ability, ideals and indeftagible effort of Dr. Hale, its first and only president. Edward A. Bailey, a leading physician and surgeon of Cleveland, O., is a brother-in-law of President W. J. Hale.
USE THE POOLS AND THE BEACHES!
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 through the summer. The beginning class for boys will be held between ten and eleven and the one for the girls between eleven and ten during the morning; advanced swimmers will be taken the afternoon. The pools will be 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.

June 30, '31.
My dear Dr. Thomas:—it is too early to give an idea of how many colored girls will enter our fall class. Applications will not be in before several weeks. I do not doubt but that there will be colored students. I am very glad to send you the following report concerning the students (of your group) who are registered in our school at pressert.
Mary Collins — admitted September 29th, 1933. First semester—satisfactory work. Second semester just completed satisfactorily—having attained the standard we require in both theory and practice.
Dorothea Davis — admitted September 29th, 1930. Satisfactory records in both theory and practice.
Gracie Rice — admitted September 30th, 1930. Passed all grades; is only an average student in both theory and practice, but is acceptable.
Edna Woolley — admitted September 29th, 1930 — made a failure in theory this last semester. Her practical work was very good; hence she will be given the opportunity to respond to questions about her semester. has signified her intention of returning registration day, September 28th, 1931.
Anna Laine — admitted January 26th, 1931. First semester satisfactory — enters her second semester.
Othello Shaw — admitted January 26th, 1931. Record satisfactory — enters her second semester.

Restless CHILDREN
CHILDREN will fret, and often for no apparent reason. But there's always Castoria! As harmless as the recipe on the wrapper; mild and bland as it tastes. Yet its gentle action will soothe a youngster more surely than a more powerful medicine.
That's the beauty of this special children's remedy! It may be given the timest infant—as often as there is need. in cases of colic, diarrhea or similar disturbance. It is invaluable. A coated tongue calls for just a few drops to ward off constipation; so does any suggestion of bad breath. Whenever children don't eat well, don't rest well, or have any little upset—this pure vegetable preparation is usually all that's needed.

HEALTHFUL WAY OF SPENDING VACATION
THE CAMP
A Group of Motor Campers on Beaver Lake in the White Mountains.
DEVELOPMENT OF ROADS BIG HELP
Tourist Business Is One of This Country's Major Industries.
The importance of motor transportation to the social, industrial and economic development of the country was described by Ernest N. Smith, president of the American Automobile association, in a recent address at New York.
"The new mobility derived from the road and from motor transport is perhaps the outstanding factor in our modern life," he said.
More Enlightenment.
More Engagement.
"It means the elimination of boundaries of parochialism and isolation—a wider distribution of wealth—larger opportunities for healthful recreation, and it also means more enlightenment and more toleration.
"Highways have revolutionized our educational scheme. The day of the one-room school is gone. Now, each morning of the school year, 45,000 school buses pick up more than a million and a quarter children children and transport them over 400,000 miles of road to 17,000 consolidated schools.
"At the present moment, however, our tremendous investment in highways, amounting to something like $25,000,000,000, is seriously endangered.
"Despite the benefits accruing to the entire community from roads, there is a growing disposition to load the costs on one class of users, namely, the car owners.
"At the present moment the railroads of the country are conducting an aggressive campaign, the purpose of which is to curb highway transport by securing heavier taxes and other forms of restrictions on motor vehicles."
HEALTHFUL WAY OF
A Group of Motor Campers on B
Motor camping is as healthful a way of spending a vacation as one can find. Motor camping is not a softening pastime; it is just as valuable as a reconditioner and bodybuilder as any of the supposedly more strenuous ways of fooling around in the open, writes Edgar F. Wolfe in Physical Culture Magazine.
Many Good Expeditions.
It's one thing for a man who has burned himself out indoors working at a sedentary occupation so that his family can put on the nose bag with reasonable regularity to pluck up enough courage and ambition to embark on a hiking tour, canoe trip, or other expedition into the outdoors which calls for considerable hard manual labor, and something else again to step on the gas and start out on a comfortable and enjoyable motor camping tour—yet so far as the reconstruction of the abused body is concerned, the results are apt to be identical.
In order to get the fullest benefit from a motor camp trip one should have the proper equipment. There is only one wholly satisfactory cooking outfit for motor camping, and that is one of these "nested" aluminum outfits in which all the pots and pans "nest" together and take up just the room of one. To this should be added a refrigerator basket holding five pounds of ice and a substantial quan-

A. First inspect the spark plugs. By replacing worn plugs new life is given an engine and often expensive repairs are avoided.
Q. What is the most important oil saving device on the automobile?
A. The oil filter. It removes the foreign matter from the oil, thus making it possible to use the oil much longer. Every 10,000 miles the oil filter cartridge should be renewed as it becomes filled at this mileage.
Q. If the oil filter is not renewed when it becomes filled with foreign matter, what happens?
A. It will be necessary to change oil more frequently as the oil is not filtered.
Q. Name two ways to save a battery, other than by regular inspection of the battery.
A. By seeing that breaker points and spark plug gaps are properly adjusted. They should be inspected at least twice a year.

AUTOMOBILE FACTS
Taut, not tight, is the condition in which the fan belt adjustment should be kept.
An old saying that sort of passed on with the advent of the motor and heavy traffic age: "As sure as you live."
The flyer who has to dodge, has one big advantage over the motorist in a similar fix. He has four choices against the motorist's two.
Drivers should be careful in pulling in to the curb. Many allow the front right wheel to scrape against the curb. This may throw the wheel out of line.
It's quite a trick to play a harmonica with the left hand, while steering, shifting gears, etc., with the other, but one young man in the block has seemingly mastered it.
A motorist charged with reckless driving so as to endanger life and property is entitled to trial by jury, according to a recent decision of the United States Supreme court.
There is one automobile for every 4.23 persons in the United States, according to the American Motorists' association. The figure for 1929 was one car to every 5.3 persons.

tity of food and a thermo jug of one-gallon capacity.
**Necessary Camping Outfit.**
An outfit for four campers should consist of the following pieces: Three cooking pots with tight fitting lids, seven and five-quart capacity respectively, a coffee pot with hinged lid and folding handles and large enough to brew two quarts of cocoa or beverage, and two frying pans measuring nine and ten and one-half inches across complete with cool detachable handles. There is only one kind of a stove to be bothered with—a two to four-burner gasoline stove with a windshield to keep the wind from blowing the heat out from under your utensils.
There are numerous types of motor camping tents and beds, and much depends upon personal preference. The trailer which opens up into a neat and comfortable house is the best of all if one has a heavy car and cares to spend around $400 on his motor camping home.
Safety Device
Rear-view mirrors came into being because they were found to represent a definite contribution to safety. The car owner who fails to replace the worn-out or cracked mirror is ignoring a safety feature of sufficient value that all manufacturers have adopted it as standard.

INTERNATIONAL
JERSEY is playing an outstanding role in the realm of sports fashions this season. Designers are in a mood to feature it not only as a medium-ideal for beach and bathing apparels, but they are doing charming things with jersey when it comes to chic costumes for informal wear. For instance, arresting full-length coats, which are said to be among the most successful summer types, are being made of jersey. These are given individuality with hand embroidery done in multicolor wool or monotone angora yarns. Smart ensembles include crepe silk frocks which are applied with motifs of the same jersey which fashions their complementary coats. For bathing and beach suits there is nothing more practical than jersey, and this summer it has a special significance because of the style prestige it enjoys. The costumes pictured are of jersey. The ensemble to the left makes appeal in that it includes

OR JACKET, OR
ABOUT the happiest of happy "hap- penstances" which has happened for many a day, is the cunning little velvet wrap, either shoulder-cape or hiplength jacket, which we simply must wear over our lingerie frocks this summer if we would be "in style." Just which to choose, a capet or a little jacket, aye, that is the question. The really logical solution to the problem is to indulge in both. The we capes are altogether too new and novel and flattering to lightly "pass up." Anyway where is the wisdom in denying oneself the joy and satisfaction of possessing so comely a summer wrap, seeing that it takes so little a length of velvet to fashion it, and so easy to make—simply a matter of having a good pattern and sewing a few seams.
Buy these cunning cape fantasies ready made if you will, for all the best shops and departments are showing them in the loveliest colors imaginable, which is the fascinating thing about them—the striking note of color

Clever as can be is the two-piece costume to the right, for its little pleated skirt is detachable. Frequently these wrap-around skirts are designed so that they can be worn as capes when desired. The color scheme for the suit pictured is ciel blue with white for the modish square revers which trim the snug-fitting bodice. In styling the now-so-voguish Jersey swimming suit, a special feature is made of contrast color effects. Vivid color touches on white are particularly stressed. A white jersey piped with red with red peel buttons and a nautical design embroidered in red is cited as being ultra chic.
Other contrasts for the smart 1931 bathing suit which is made of jersey accent striking effects such as dark green piped with light green, white combined half-and-half with skimmer blue and among the newest is the swim suit with a light top.

which they lend to the frock of white organdie or flowered chiffon or eyeleted batiste.
The little cape in the picture is a very pretty model. Its narrow circular ruffie achieves a graceful and animated silhouette.
Likewise the jacket illustrated is charmingly fashioned. It is made to look youthful with its wide cap collar which ties in the front with long scarf ends. The softly flared three-quarter sleeves are up-to-the-moment when it comes to smart styling. Transparent velvet in black is used for this wrap and in this instance it is posed over a white satin frock thus accenting the vogue which still persists for black-and-white.
If you like this little jacket in black you should see it copied in a beguiling color—charming beyond words. A favorite is bright green, either grass green or parrakeet, the latter a very new hue on the color card.

COLOR-LINE SEGREGATION
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 a lawyer to argue against York, especially when they are built to cover the crime, race discrimination. Many of our physicians coming 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. He is a well-known physician, Dr. Peter F. Gwynne 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 one of 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 can be hired 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 place of 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 Y's," etc., because they are not prepared to play their trade or enter "Y's" among men of standing and first-class qualifications. The day of "race accommodations," to cover over race unpreparedness to function as other men, HAS PASSED! Then, too, a great number of people, trying to understand their "race love," is nothing more than buncomb. With the open-door for equipment and 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 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. Too many colored ministers, who have been educated, are following the same loud-mouthed practice of catering to the whims of ignorance and ancient beliefs of people simply to get money out of them. 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. These race-churches, like what physicians call "race hospitals," are doing more injury to religion and help, physicians should be the equals in every way of the ministers and physicians of other races. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.
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:
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 and Y. M. C. A. buildings, exclusively "Negro," was inimical 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. John 13: 24; Matt 20: 6-8-10-12, (b) The cornerstone of American democracy is "an 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 comforting presence; John 3:26, 28, absolutely denied in toto 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" or separation, discrimination and segregation that will be erected and enforced (in a spiteful spirit) by both peoples American civilization? Gal. 6:7. Respectfully submitted, Rev. Goo, Wilson Brent, Madison, N. J.

AN entirely new expression of the trend for harmony in table decoration is found in the new china and silver in matching designs which have just appeared in jewelry stores. Since the average hostess cannot afford a different set of china and silver for each occasion, the Community sets have been designed to harmonize with many types of decoration. The Noblesse pattern has a dignified simplicity which makes a charming background for the formal dinner or luncheon.

IS IT ANY USE TO CON-
TEND FOR RIGHTS?
Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universalism and a winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's cf no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say. "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and are not worthy of equal rights. The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race.
Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race his criminality may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Boston (Mass.) Guardian.
