Crack high school bands from Cleveland, Lakewood, East Cleveland and Cleveland Heights will participate in the two gala inaugural concert concerts, Sunday, Sept. 27th, when the famous U. S. Marine band will play in the city's new lake-front stadium, as arrangements are being made with Russell V. Morgan, directing supervisor of music of the local schools. It is planned to have the SIR JOHN HENRY WILBUR D. KIEFFER bands march around the big bowl, each playing its own selection as it enters the stadium, and later to combine under the leadership of Capt. Taylor Branson, Marine band leader, to play a patrolic air. Seldom in the history of the great band, which was founded in 1775, has it had such a galaxy of individual artists to offer the public in concert. One of the most prominent is Wilbur D. Kieffer, xylophone soloist of note. Winfred Kemp and John P. White are two of the best known cornetists in the band-world. Robert E. Clark, trombone, and Kenneth Douse, saxophone soloists, are also well-known artists. With tickets being sold for both concerts at popular prices, as low as twenty-five cents, a ticket-selling campaign will open shortly and an automobile will be given to the ner- HILLSBORO.—Mr. and Mrs. Howard Robinson, Mrs. Sadie King and Mrs. Lillie Robinson of Cincinnati visited here, Sunday and Monday.—Mr. and Mrs. C.

What has become of Norman Selby Minor—whom we were told, last year, was appointed an assistant county prosecutor by Mr. Miller and who served as prosecutor. — Saturday. Has Minor been "fired?" Ask our local Democrats. It certainly looks like it. FINKLE'S PLAYSPOT! The Portland-Outhwaite Recreation Center to Be Ready for Use. More than $250,000 worth of improvements for the Portland-Outhwaite recreation center, sponsored by Councilman Finkle, were authorized, Wednesday, in contracts let by the board of control, besides approximately $20,000 in other city contracts. The Aronberg-Fried Co., a closed shop concern, was awarded the two general contracts for the recreation center, for $10,000 and $6,700. Others were as follows: Plumbing, Gorman-Lavelle Co. $49,800; electrical, Hattfield Electric Co. $7,380. The recreation center, which will include both indoor and outdoor swimming pools and a large playground, will be constructed under the sponsorship of both city and school board. It is expected to be opened by the mayor. Just what "The Blossom Triplets" accomplish ed for their constituents, especially those of color? NOTHING worthwhile. Do not vote for any one of them in November! Just how many candidates of color there will be for the council in the third and fourth districts cannot be determined until their petitions have been accepted by the board of elections. About a score have announced their intention of winning candidates and course no one has heard of will cover the contest, or even be able to do so after filing their petitions. CHARGES LOSS OF CITY JOBS TO BUNDY, PAYNE, GEORGE! Ten-Year Employee and Others Blame Ousters to Their Failure to Pay Into Campaign Funds. (I. L. Kenen, in Cleveland Daily News.) After ten years of employment as auto driver and helper in the municipal garbage department, George Graham, 6521 Scovill Ave, has been dismissed, he charged, because he failed to contribute to campaign funds of the Seventeenth Ward Republican club. Graham named Councilman LeRoy N. Bundy as the man who re- PETER M. Councilman Bundy, minded him of his failure to dig into his pockets for a political contribution. After he was fired, he arranged to have $13 paid over to Councilman Bundy, he said. But he is still looking for his old job. Graham is under civil service and, through Atty. James M. Williams, expects to appeal to the civil service commission for restatement. Claims 45 Dismissed. Claims 45 Dismissed. At the same time Thomas W. Bird, secretary of the Third District Political civic league, charged that the garbage about 45 men during the past month without any apparent reason. All 45 had been replaced by others, he said. He claimed that the upheaval was due to the desire of (two or three colored) councilmen to put on the payroll men whose political inclinations were more satisfactory. As an example Bird cited the case of Warren Fields, 7319 Central Ave., who says that he worked in the garbage department was dismissed by Supt. Seth Nickens on June 1 of this year without any reason. "Nickens told these men that he had orders from 'higher-ups' to let them go. Fields is not a civil service employee, but we are going to ask Service Director Rees H. Davis who these 'higher-ups' are," said Bird. Graham said he was dismissed on July 27. Six days before there had been a meeting of the Seventeenth Ward Republican club, an organization dominated by Councilman Bundy. Hyman Mayerson, precinct committeeman, and a Bundy political aide, approached him and told him he "wasn't doing right by the party," he said. "He told me that they had asked me to contribute $2 for Christmas funds for 1930 and that I had not done so. So he asked me for $10 for the campaign this year. I told him that I did not have any money now, and that I was broke. He asked me that I did not have any cash pay. I said I would do that. But I was fired nine days before pay day." "Gives Money to Bundy." "On Tuesday, Aug. 11, a friend and I went to Dr. Bundy's office to find out why I was laid off, and to have me put back to work." "Bundy said I did not pay my dues to the 17th Ward club—$1 to join and 25 cents a month. Bundy said I owed $3 for eight months, and that I owed $10 for the campaign. My friend paid the $13 to Dr. Bundy and Bundy told me he was going to put me to the following week. I am not on the job yet." Takes Many Tests. Graham said that Supt. Nickens told him that he was a satisfactory employee and that he wanted to keep him on the job but that "high authorities" had ordered the discharge. Graham told of a peculiar system which forced him to try a civil service examination every two years. He said that he always passed the examination and went to work as auto mechanist. Then, suddenly, he would find himself acceded to help. Meanwhile, the civil service list would expire, so, in order to obtain his civil service standing, he would have to try another examination. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS OF HIS "FAITHFULNESS, LOYALTY AND LONG SERVICE" TO THE MME. C. J. WALKER MFG. CO. Very Valuable Real Estate in Several of Our Largest Cities and the "Thousands" of Walker Jewelry Disposed of—Mae Walker Perry, Daughter, the Greatest Beneficiary. Indianapolis, Ind.—Recognition of the service Atty. F. B. Ransom has for many years rendered the Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Co. as its manager, was contained in the will of the late president and owner of the corporation. Madam A'Lelia Walker, which was filed for probate here, reiterated bequeathed one-half of her interest in the company to her daughter, Mae Walker Perry, and the other half to Mr. Ransom. She stated that her reason for thus remembering him was because of his long connection with the company, faithfulness, loyalty, her great esteem for him and the service that he had rendered her mother in the development of the company. The will also required that Mrs. Perry shall succeed Mme. A'Lelia Walker dent of the company. Some of the interesting features of the will follow: The property, known as 108-110 W. 136th St., New York City, left to her daughter, and estimated to be worth $100,000, is leased to and occupied by the city of New York as a health center, and is one of the show places of Harlem. The will also provides that F. B. Ransom be continued as manager and that upon retiring, he be privileged to choose his states. In this connection, she states, "I make his provision for any lack of respect for the daughter but because of my implicit confidence in Mr. Ransom, his knowledge of the business and his great love for my mother." All of the jewelry owned by the late Mme. C. J. Walker, which at the death of Mme. A'Lelia Walker was valued at $11,000, was willed to her husband, her diamonds, household goods, furnishings, New York premises and the Villa Lewaro were left absolutely to the daughter with the exception of the gift to A'Lelia Emma Ransom, her godchild, of one set of diamond earrings and a solitaire diamond ring owned by the late Mme. C. J. Walker provides that her daughter, Maeja, inherit all of her jewelry and that upon her death she shall go to her daughter, A'Lelia Perry, Mme. Sociologist Says Future Will Approve the Intermingling Which Grows Steadily, Each Year. Lakeside, O., Sept. 4.—Inter-marriage between the races will be regarded in the future as marriage between blond and brunet Prof. Herbert A. Miller, recently ousted from Ohio State university DR HERBERT A MILLER stated in an interview here, today. Intermarriage is biologically sound but falls from a cultural standpoint at present, the world-renowned so-called other words, the only objections articulated from color distinctions. Prof. Miller, in THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and compari- with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. LE COPY FIVE CENTS FG. CO. L RECOGNITION ESS, LOYALTY AND LONG E MME. C. J. WALKER FG. CO. ate in Several of Our Largest sands" of Walker Jewelry Walker Perry, Daughter, A'Lella Walker had a life interest in the considerable real estate owned by the Walker estate located in New York, Indianapolis, Illinois, Michigan and California. This real estate is valued at more than one-half million dollars, exclusive of the site now occupied and owned by the Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Co. on which was recently erected the million dollar Mrs. A'Lelia Walker. Walker building. Upon her death, however, all of this property reverts to the Walker estate. Among other interesting things in Mrs. Walker's will is that she makes provision that Miss Alice P. Kelly should succeed her as trustee under the will of her wife as trustee. Miss Kelly was foredale of the Mme. C. J. Walker Mtg. "passed out" in this year. The will provides that a sum shall be set aside for the education of her grandson, Walker Gordon Jackson. At the time of Mme. A'Lelia Walker's death she was sole owner of the Mme. C. J. Walker Mtg. Co. as was her mother, Mme. C. J. Walker, M娘, Marian R. Perry of this city, will act as attorney for the executors an address before members of the International Lyceum Chautauqua Association, here, sounded a warning to the white race to cease domination of the colored races and begin co-operation. A new era of cosmopolitanism is dawning, he stated. The colored races are beginning to awake unless different tactics are used, the whites, who for so long have them as slaves. Three-fourths of the world's population are colored—red, yellow, brown and black! Prof. Miller termed Lenin, Dr. Sun Yat Sen and Ghandi as the three greatest leaders of modern times. Ghandi he especially praised for Christian actions in Indian's crisis, and stated that his "civil disobedience" campaign was the first real example of putting the white race in practice to accomplish such results—Cleveland Daily Press. News A. 71. DOINGS OF THE RACE. Dr. Daniel Williams of Chicago, for years our leading physician and surgeon, who died, recently, left $50,000 to the N. A. A. C. P. Fred Goldstaudt (white), a prejured, heavy-faced native of Oklahoma, didn't like the sight of a Senegalese girl sitting with a beautiful blonde French girl last week, but was made "to like it" and jeered and laughed out of one of the most popular night-clubs, Le Trian Bleu, in Paris, France. Mrs. Mae Robinson Perry, heir to the bulk of the Mme. C. J. Walker estate, was the adopted daughter of the late Mme. A'Lieira Walker. Only the furnishings of Villa Lewaro, valued at more than $350,000, were added, recently, and for but $50,000. The licenses of the National Benefit Life Ins. Co. to do business in North Carolina and Georgia, have been revoked. J. Finley Wilson was re-elected G. E. R. of Elks at its meeting in Philadelphia, last week. --- --- *UBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY* IN UNION IN STRONG 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. 325,000 in Ohio. 75,000 in Cleveland. MORE N. A. A. C. P. WASTE. We do not desire to minimize the importance of the N. A. A. C. P.'s long, drawn-out suit to test the Texas Enabling Act of 1927 which bars Afro-Americans from voting in Democratic primaries, but we do wish to say that the large amount of money spent and still being spent in that effort could have been used to far better purpose in endeavoring to knock out the unconstitutional disfranchement "laws" of at least several southern states and their "jim-crow" transportation "laws". The fact that the suit is now being financed by the American Fund for Public Service does not alter our opinion in the slightest. Our voting rights on election days and those on the railroads in the South are vastly more important than our rights in the Democratic primaries of Texas or any other state. This latter is a minor matter while the former are major matters and of vastly more importance to the masses of our people of this country. MILLER'S "BODY-BLOW". We certainly admire Prof. A. Miller's courage as well as his steling ability, acknowledged generally by the leading educators of this country, as well as many abroad. What a pity it is that the Ohio General Assembly, at its last session, did not force the trustees and president of Ohio State university to rescind their action in deposing him and thus save, to the leading educational institution of the state, the services of "the world-renowned sociologist." That it failed to do so is but another indication of the influence and power of damphool American racial prejudice, particularly that against the so-called "Negro" or Afro-American. There is nothing that can stop the merging of all races, now taking place throughout the world, except devine power and it is undoubtedly being used to promote this intermingling, or miscegation. Herein lies the real solution of the biggest problem of the races. OUR FORTY-NINTH YEAR! OUR FORTY-NINTH YEAR! In our last issue, we should have called attention to the fact on Aug. 22, 1931, that with that issue "The Old Reliable" Gazette entered upon its forty-ninth year of continuous publication, every week on time. Forty-eight years ago, this paper made its first appearance, with the writer at the helm as part-owner, editor and manager. Many years ago, he purchased the interests of the other three members of the company and ever since the burden of and responsibility for the publication of The Gazette has rested upon his shoulders. How successful we have been is a matter of common knowledge the country over, and of personal pride on our part, for The Gazette's accomplishments were and are vitally important, many and varied. They recommend it, too, in the strongest possible manner especially to the loyal of the race wherever they may be. As a direct result of the efforts of The Gazette, many years ago, the notorious "Black Laws" of Ohio were wiped out, and an effective Civil Rights law, and Mob Violence act or Anti-Lynching law enacted by the Ohio General Assembly. This paper, as all know, has never failed to do all in its power to help, defend and protect our people, not only in Ohio but of the entire country. It has time and again blazed the way to wiser and better political and other action, and "turned back" the "jim-crow Negro" who is a more treacherous and dangerous opponent of real racial progress than any other enemy of the race. Indeed, "The Old Reliable" Gazette has stood out in the open all of its forty-eight years of life like a beacon light, fearless and unafraid, never falling and always determined. What it has done in hundreds of other instances to help, de fend and encourage our people along all lines of endeavor that lead to greater and better progress is a matter of general knowledge through the country. We refer particularly to its efforts against discrimination, national, state and municipal, and in favor of all that was helpful to the race. Personal and business interests have always been subordinated by its editor to those of the race, and The Gazette's clarion call to Afro-Americans, generally, in season and out, has been to accept nothing in the way of treatment that is less than all citizens, without reference to class (race) or color, are entitled to. When it comes to our citizen-rights, here in the North, we have been and always will be, unalterably opposed to any "doctrine of surrender," or conciliatory policy, so insidiously preached, in this day and time, by "jim-crow Negroes" and their fool-prejudiced masters. The Gazette believes in demanding for our country at least, and in continuing to fight for, ALL that is due all American citizens, under the law. THIS IS OUR SLOGAN! Its firm adherence to principle, thru all these years, together with its known accomplishments, are its best recommendations for continued and greater support, and we respectfully ask it. To our faithful following of the past forty-eight years—thousands of readers in all parts of the country, from ocean to ocean and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf—we have only expressions of sincerest appreciation. There is, however, one thing we would ask of all our readers, at this time, and that is that they urge their friends and acquaintances to become subscribers of "The Old Reliable" Gazette and in this way assist it to materially increase its circulation and power for good. For all you have done in the past, we thank you, and again assure you of our sincerest appreciation. Harry C. Smith, Editor and Owner. HEAR! HEAR!! JACKSON The ROUNDER WHAT'S DOING! Dr. Edward J. Gregg, former councilman and a candidate for reelection, says he secured legislation in the city council, authorizing the placing of large, bright electric lights in Quincy Ave., making it a virtual white-way. This has stood all last year and thus far, this year, without anything ever being done to put in the lights. What a wonderful trio Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy, "The Blossom Triplets," are. The total votes, cast for Clayborne George and Chester Gillespie, candidates for the council in the 4th district, two years ago, was 3.647. The quota to elect a candidate was 4.837. With the almost unanimous support of our people in the district, George failed to get the quota and came very near being defeated. This time, with his following "all split up the back and down the front", some even joining the Democratic party, it will not take a prophet, or a son of a prophet, to foretell what's going to happen to him in November. This latter is equally true of the other two "Blossom Triplets", Bundy and Payne. A few weeks ago. The Rounder called our many readers' attention to the fact that Mueller's restaurant stand, just inside (to the right) of the Woodland Ave. entrance to the Woodland-E. 55th market, gives its patrons the very best meals and at the lowest charge. Attention was called to the fact that a fine beef or lamb-stew, roast lamb or beef (and I mean lamb, not mutton; and I don't mean tough beef, either) costs 30c or 35c, or less, and NOT 50c, 60c or 70c as charged in the restaurants elsewhere in that section of the city. Moreover, you can find it in fit eat. for five cents up. Mr. Mueller's brother-in-law is the chef, and there is no better in the city. This is true, too, of the service rendered by his assistants at the stand. Go in and see for yourself. The Rounder stands ready to back everything said in the foregoing. The Rounder fully agrees with the following: An indication of the way in which Ex-City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins will be attacked by the local Republican organization and its forces, says Gus Hirstius, chairman of the executive committee, is seen in the following: "I am glad," he says "to see Hopkins a candidate. As such he finally will be afforded the opportunity of explaining his purchase of Gordon Gardens, his approval of the purchase of the Coit-St. Clair playground at an exhorbitant price, his permitting his utilities director to partially wreck the municipal light plant, and the municipal securities which occurred in his administration in the city purchasing department, and his willingness to accept the so-called boss' support when he was elected city manager." Yes, and explain why he barred our boys and girls from training in THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPT. 12. 1931 OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mo. violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been 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 laws. 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 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. THIS IS A TERRIBLE NOISY SHIP I CAN'T SLEEP WHY IS THAT?

A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a mob for the purpose of this chapter, the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2). Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such inquiry as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3). Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob and assaulted with white, male, slaves or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor, such children may such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the law of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) the City Hospital, throut his administration as city manager, saying it was in compliance with an agreement made with the Western Reserve Medical Unit when such was not the case, according to his own statement just before he was bounced out of the city managership by Dr. F. W. Walz (councilman) and the local Republican organization, lead by Mr. Maurice Maschke. Didn't City Manager Hopkins lie when he made his original statement, referred to in the foregoing? He sure did! There was not a single member of the race among the fifty new policemen appointed, several months ago, Councilman Payne, George and Bundy are responsible for that. When the Supreme Liberty Life Ins. Co.'s outing was being held at Garfield park, a number of their party were chased out of the pool! What did "The Blossom triplets" (George, Payne and Bundy) do about it? Now comes Roy Bundy with a council-resolution trying to help the Cleveland Baseball Co. which steadfastly refused to hire one of Bundy's race as a baseball player, and they had a Jewish member of last year's team. Then, busy, these days, Payne are mighty candidates, in and out of the 12th game, so run against Councilman Herman Finkle, Republican floor-leader of Cleveland's legislative body. They feel sure of their own defeat and are attempting the impossible—the defeat of Finkle. "The Triplets" are nothing, if not amusing. MOBS. Section 6283.

(63 v. 162 7.) Section 6285.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enclosed while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities, services of the shall be defined 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 courts.

"THE WHITE RENEGADE" A Most Insulting "Talkie"—Should Be Barred From the State— Protest to Gov. Geo. White. Cleveland, Sept. 1, 1931. Gov. George White, Capitol, Columbus, O. My dear Governor:—Last evening I witnessed the film, "The White Renegade," which I am sure never passed the Ohio State Board of Film Censors because on several occasions during the progress of the shower of the picture in a local theater, the miserably insulting statement from the company "n—," were used, much to the discomfort of a goodly portion of the audience. I know that you will not permit the showing, throuout Ohio of so insulting a picture (talkie) and, therefore, am writing you promptly that you may notify the State Department of Commerce which I trust you will do immediately. There are more than three hundred thousand Afro-American residents THE GREAT GREAT GREAT Babies, bottle-fed or breast-fed, with any tendency to be constipated, would thrive if they received daily half a teaspoonful of this old family doctor's prescription for the bowels. That is one sure way to train tiny bowels to healthy regularity. To avoid the fretfulness, vomiting, crying, failure to gain, and other ills of constipated babies. Forty-seven years of practice taught Dr. Caldwell just what babies need to keep their little bowels active; regular; keep little bodies plump and healthy. For Dr. Caldwell specialized in the treatment of women and little ones. He attended over 3500 births without loss of one mother or baby. in Ohio, many of them old residents and splendid citizens, as you well know. I am sure that your consideration of them could cause immeasurable action to give this film "White Renegade," either properly censored or barred from the state of Ohio.

May I ask you to let me know, as as soon as possible, what action is taken by Dr. B. O. Skinner, state director of education, or by the State Board of Censors? The matter is of such great importance to so many residents of the state of Ohio that it is of a great deal more consequence than one might think on first thot.

By RUBE GOLDBERG Don't Throw Away Your Copy of The GAZETTE After Reading It But Give it to a Friend or an Acquaintance who might Subscribe after Reading It How Norway Lives Inflated Moby Dicks in Tow. (Prepared by the National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.) WHY do Norway make a counter claim with Denmark over a segment of the east coast of Greenland, a land once inhabited by Eskimos but now barren and ice choked most of the year? Perhaps the Norwegians seek to extend their fisheries, for a large part of Norway's population lives on the generosity of King Neptune. Only a little more than 3 per cent of Norway is under cultivation. The country lacks the chief prerequisite of modern industrialism—the juxtaposition of iron and coal. The Norwegians, striving to the utmost, cannot ekke out a living from the soil. They import much food. Nor can they depend, as does England, upon the exchange of the products of their factories for the products of other people's farms. Even the skies frown often upon Norway. The west coast for a good part of the year is shrouded by a pall of mist, fog and drizzle, with 200 days of rain out of the year. The annual rainfall at Bergen is more than six feet. The country is traversed by a great dorsal plateau standing stark and high above sea level. In these rocky, sterile soils, useful plant life will not take root. A great wall of mountains known as the Keel defines the Swedish frontier. Southernmost Norway is in the same latitude as northern Labrador, with northernmost Norway lying far within the Arctic circle. Norway is hardly more than a fringe, or shelf, washed by the Arctic and the North Atlantic oceans and deeply indented by salt water inland canals, known as fjords. For the most part, agriculture is limited to nooks and corners. Little farms cling to the base of mountains like shipwrecked sailors to a life raft. Sixty per cent of Norway's farms are less than five acres; 98 per cent are less than 25 acres. Norway seems to be one of nature's climatic mistakes. Too much daylight in summer, too little in winter; too much worthless water here, too much sterile mountain there. But what the country may lack in quality is more than offset by the quality of the people who inhabit it. Norwegians are haplier than the common run of mortals. They are essentially open-air country people, knowing nothing of the misery and abject poverty of city slums and tenements. They have learned to live comfortably with themselves, having a wealth of inner resources on which to draw. They go down to the sea in ships and see the earth and the fullness thereof. Before them lies the panorama of mountains, glaciers, cloud racks floating through the lofty defiles of their flords. They know the world, too, from the inside of books. They are a bookish people, prizing education. Illiterates are about as plentiful in Norway as horned toads on Boston common. When it comes to exchange of intelligence, Norway has more telephones than Spain or Poland, with populations from seven to ten times as great. Each country, like each human being on this planet, has a face and character of its own. Chile, another elongated mountainous coast country fronting the western sea, in a considerable area of its homeland is parched and rainless, while Norway is drenched with moisture. Greece and Italy suffer from too much sun, while Norway hasn't enough to go around. Greece, Albania, Portugal, Estonia, and Norway are the only European countries which grow no sugar beets—too much sun in the Mediterranean countries, too little in Norway. Contrast the loiterers basking in the winter's sunshine on the steps of the Piazza di Spagna, Rome, with the Norwegians clad in furs and oilskins adventuring over cold, gray, fog-covered waters. Italy and Norway from early antiquity bred a race of sea-rovers, adventurers, discoverers. Norway and Greece, looking seaward, present the appearance of once compact lands that have been shot to pieces by titanic subterranean explosions. Their deeply indented coasts are fringed and tasseled with island groups. The sea is sown thick with fragments like celestial star dust in the Milky Way. The islands of Greece furnish goats, currants, and material for poetic rhapsodizing. The Norwegian coast is an exaggerated southern Alaskan coast. Skippers navigate big ships through Norwegian fjords just as they do through the deep-cut Alaskan inner casals. The fjords, whether the result of glacial erosion or faulting of the earth's crust, are of awsome beauty and of considerable human utility. Saved by Gulf Stream. The warm Atlantic drift from the Gulf stream supplies Norway with both climate and fish. But for its beneficence of nature, Norway would be a bleak and inhospitable waste and most of the Norwegians would be compelled to emigrate or starve. Fish, following family tradition, crowd into the shoal waters of the North sea to feed and breed. They've been doing it for thousands of years, and they'll probably keep on just so long as this poor earth's pale history runs. They return like the swallows in the spring. Roughly speaking Norway has three strings to its fishing bow: cod, whale and herring; but the herring is king. Herring, because of their abundance, give rise to the greatest of the world's fisheries. They are as gregarious as the starlings which cluster by night in the tops of trees on Pennsylvania avenue, Washington. They run in immense schools, with some of their life cycle still shrouded in obscurity, although it is probably as well known as that of any other important fish. Norwegian herring fisheries were famous before William the Conqueror. The Norwegian fish catch runs to about one and three-quarter billion pounds, of which approximately one billion pounds are contributed by the herring tribe. The live herring is something of a traveler, but the dead herring goes farther. What one may call a "pickled-herring-raw-cucumber-sour-cream-belt" includes a better part of eastern Germany, Poland, the three Baltic states, Finland and Russia. The Norwegian cod, unlike the herring, travels southward rather than eastward. Cured codfish enjoys the entree to all classes of society in southern Europe, particularly in the Catholic countries where meatless days are prescribed. Some years ago, when Norway was trying out prohibition, a serious effort was made to exclude the importation of the more heady Spanish and Portuguese wines. The Iberians naturally resented the affront to their delicious wines and threatened reprisals upon the Norwegian codfish. The anti-codfish campaign was too much for the Norwegians. They capitulated by throwing open their doors to Mediterranean wines. Development of Fisheries. Norwegian fisheries have developed from small beginnings, when little wooden boats put out a mile or two from the shore scrabbling for a meager catch of herring. Now great steel power boats make matches of 10,000 barrels of fish in a day. Once estimated by the pound, the catch is now estimated by the ton. Norway has come largely to control the world's whaling industry, once a great American business, with Yankee ships sailing from New England ports. About the turn of the century it looked as if the whaling business the world over was doomed to early extinction. Defenseless monsters, the poor whales do not get an even break! Nature ironically dooms them by causing them to signal their own destruction. If whales were equipped to remain beneath the surface even as long as the modern submarine, they would be more than a match for the energetic Norwegians, with their big steel ships and long-range harpoon guns. Norway's annual production · of whale oil rose from 19,000,000 pounds in 1906 to 311,000,000 pounds in 1927. The Norwegian annual herring catch would load a solid train of steel gondola cars reaching from New York to Philadelphia, in or, if converted to Norwegian cars, a solid train 300 miles long. It would require at least double these train lengths to handle the annual catch of whales. The Norwegians are the northernmost and the southernmost workers of the world. Their operations cover a wider range than the flight of the Arctic tern. Annually 10,000 Norwegians work in Antarctic seas close up to the great ice barrier. Just as many work in the Arctic seas on the outskirts of the polar cap. Norway's climatic eccentricities bear an intimate relation to Norwegian agriculture. In Norway farming within the Arctic circle is by no means a desperate enterprise. As the snows retire, vegetation is quickened by long days of sunlight. Even dairy farming prosperms within the Arctic circle, despite the accepted notion that only reindeer thrive in these latitudes. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, SEPT. 12. 1931 MATCHING SWEATER AND BERET LATEST American Women Enthusiastic Over Fad From Paris. BY CHERIE NICHOLAS The matching sweater and beet are quite the latest word in fashion. The fad started in Paris, where it is quite the thing to crochet your own, and now women in America are cutting down the summer porch bridge parties to give more time to their crocheting parties. Not for twenty years have crochet hooks been so busy. Not only sweaters and beets, but dress rokes, scarfs and even shoulder flowers are all being fashioned from pearly crochet cotton, and fashionists tell us the rage is going right through fall and winter. Already fine mending wool has been introduced for sweaters, beetens and scarfs for colder days. The hand crocheted beret with scarf to match, introduced in Paris, is going right through fall and winter, fashionists tell us. Naturally for colder days these sets will be crocheted from wool, and for this purpose the fine mending wool that comes thirty yards to the card, is the best bet, as the yarn must not be the least bit heavy. The set here shown, done in two colors, white and ensign blue, requires twenty-three cards of the fine im- Hat the Doctor ported mending wool, and costs just one dollar and fifteen cents complete to make. Here is an idea for a very acceptable Christmas gift for those who plan to make their Christmas gifts early, as well as for the girl who is going away to school or college in the fall. It is interesting to note that the two sweater and beret sets as shown here are crocheted of pearl crochet cotton. They launder perfectly. They are ideal for wear all through the fall season. The stitch is the fishnet, or french net mesh pattern. It goes very easily and quickly. SEEN IN PARIS SALONS Notes gathered at random at recent contourer showings declare skirt lengths, and the placement of the waistline at normal to be unchanged for the daytime dress silhouette. Ankle length is advocated for afternoon costumes and full length skirts for evening with trains for ultra formal. Necklines are inclined to be higher. Straighter lines are adopted for daytime skirts—many wrap-around types. Sleeves offer novelty with a tendency to show increased fullness. Importance of diagonal woolens for chic tallerues is emphasized. Flat crepe is sponsored as a staple fabric. Satin and velvet are outstanding in the evening mode. One is impressed with the variety of velvet weaves. Stately formal gowns are fashioned of stiffer velvets and the newer finish trends to dull rather than high luster. --- Feminine Poise Ousting Boyishness From Styles Femininity rules women's fashions, say those who have checked on what American women are wearing. But it is not a fussy femininity that has displaced boyish and mannish fashions from the 1931 picture. It is a neater kind, expressing the pulse of the woman rather than the flightiness sometimes attributed to her younger sister. Coats in favor display the figure and have feminine details of revers, scars and capes. Hats are soft-draped turbans, brimmed hats worn at a tilt or Watteau hats with flowers or ribbons under the brim. Accessories Make or Accessories make or ruin the smartness of black and white costumes. Black slippers, guantlet gloves, hat bag are generally worn with white frocks, while white leather belts, boutonnieres and hats accompany black frocks or tailleurs. Black accessories are more often chosen for cool informal days in town, while the white gadgets are used for warm playtime days in the country or formal town affairs. BENT FOR COTTON LIGHT ON PURSE Can Look Like Million at Very Little Expense. The vogue for cotton fabrics make it possible to dress on "next to nothing" and look like a million. Never have such cottones been seen in the shops. Some of them are mistaken by many women for new light wools—they are brushed cotton meshes much finer, softer and more flattering than those of last year. Then there are cotton tweeds and hopsacking cotton crepes in the smartest color combinations. It's hard to believe they wash well, but they do. A lot more of the new cottones are so silky that it is easy to think that somebody's fooling about their texture—facone, broadcloths, cotton shantungs, cotton volles in fascinating new designs. There are a whole flock that imitate linens, as described by Betty Thornley in the Country Home; lovely printed things in the new Algerian reds and navies and bright blues, all of them combined with white. Blue or green for the fair girl, if she plans to travel, for cotton voile won't crush. And the latest of all is cotton lace for the evening—a real rage, as witnessed by the number of white cotton lace frocks for the evening—a real rage, as witnessed by the number of white cotton lace frocks in the smarter stores. Of course some of the best on the market are cotton cottons—everything one ever heard of in the old days, but very popular in the new shades. Dotted dimities and printed dotted swisses, printed plques, a new thing they call lenolaw with a hemstitched effect, stripes and plaids of all sorts, sheer chambrays with eyelets—and marquisettes, of all things, back again for afternoon dresses. Accessories for Fall By CHERIE NICHOLAS By CHEUR NICHOLAS An attractive ensemble for fall wear. A brown kid turban trimmed with ribbed jersey with pocket book to match, brown kid pumps and gloves and brown scarf set off the polo coat with wide revers. FLASHES FROM PARIS According to the recent Paris openings, the remarkable change in military which has to do with romantic little hats worn tilted over one eye and which declare a revival of picturesque plumage, is not having so great an influence on the rest of the costume as to make it impractical for women who live in this busy day and age. At least, so far as informal daytime and sports fashions are concerned, designers have maintained a reasonable style balance, since most of the collections favor discreet and wearable types. As to the new evening types they definitely reflect period influence, in so far that many silhouettes suggest a return to bustle effects, together with trimmings of quaint little puffs and ruchings and all sorts of feminine frills and furbelows such as had to do with fashions which flourished from the 1890s to the 1930s. Flower Chin Straps New Flower chin straps are a new idea for holding extremely tilted hats in place. To the flat pancake hats worn over the right ear, several modistes have added chin straps of roses or gardenias to anchor the chapeau at the correct angle on the colfure. The departure adds to the air of last century charm surrounding the hats which follow the returning Princess Eugenie mode. "THE BLOSSOM TRIPLETS" BROKE THEIR PLEDGE TO THEIR CONSTITUTIONS AND NOW MUST PAY! Cleveland, O., Aug. 19, '31. Wendell Phillips Dabney, Editor, "The Union," Cincinnati, O. Dear Conferece: "Your request for a short article on "The Blossom Triplets." Cleveland's Afro-American councilmen, Atty. Clayborne George, Atty. Lawrence O. Payne and Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, is here-with compiled with: Dudley S. Blossom (white), director of safety of Cleveland for about six years past, with his then superior officer, City Manager Wm. R. Hopkins, arbitrarily refused our internes practice in the Cleveland City hospital and our girls entrance to the school for nursing at the hospital, or race of people in this city was accorded the rights or privileges mentioned in the foregoing sentence. JOHN H. HARRIS 468 Lawrence O. Payne. When Rev. Horace C. Bailey, for more than twenty years one of our leading ministers in this community, took his motherless granddaughter, a graduate of our local public schools, to said Blossom in an effort to secure her admission to the nurse's training school at the City hospital, he was curtly and coarsely told by Director Blossom that "No Negro boy or girl would be allowed to train in the City hospital as long as he was director of public safety." Two years ago this fall when we were struggling to elect Messrs. George, Payne and Bundy, Dr. Bailey, night after night from the public rostrums of the third and fourth districts, openly repeated the insulting Blossom statement and demanded the director's ousting as well as that of the then City Manager Wm. Hopkins. The writer "The Blossom Triplets" and all other speakers in the third and fourth councilmatic districts made the same demand. Payne and Bundy reside in the third district and George in the fourth district. They pledged their constituents, night after night during the campaign, to "do all in their power to help oust both Hopkins and Blossom." They were elected on that pledge and early in last year, soon after the ousting of Hopkins, broke their pledge and acquiesced in the reappointment of Wm. Hopkins to both the ousting, amazing, astonishing and disgusting every loyal member of the race in this community as well as others. As members of Cleveland's City Council, they have failed absolutely to cause the removal of the unfair prejudices, against our people only, in the various city departments. In spite of the fact that their three votes have been the balance of our city and for more than a year and a half, scores of our young men and women who have won positions in civil service examinations have failed to secure them as a direct result of this failure upon the part of "The Blossom Triplets." Apparently, they have been too intent upon looking for the right to do their full duty to their constituents of color and the rest of the people of this community. This letter is already too long and, if not, would surely be so if my time permitted me to enumerate the other score or more failures of The Blossom Triplets" which have the same score and aggressive members of the race in this community. Payne, George and Bundy will be defeated in November. Two or more Afro-American candidates are opposing each of them. And in January next it will be riddance to "The Blossom Triplets." The editor of "The Union" will recall that it took more than three years to get our internes and student-nurses into the Cleveland City hospital. This was accomplished the first of last year and was the first time the Grazette" with the assistance of the late Gao. A. Myers of this city and Councilman F. W. Walz (dem.) who introduced the resolution in the Cleveland City Council the first of last year, fully opening that institution to our students with all others of this community. Yours for the race. Harry C. Smith. Editor, "The Grazette." Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a riper growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For forty-eight years The Gazette, under its present management, has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser. "WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD"! Cleveland, O., Aug. 28th, 1925. Hen, Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it. I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and if possible smite it. You and I acquaint yourself during the forty-two years since birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, through nearly half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Heirlooms of Heirlooms of Linen Chest S This 150-year-old cloth is in use today.

Fine damas BY LINDA BROWNE Twelve dozen of everything—that was the quantity which the proper Continental bride of a century ago received in her trousseau. It sounds lavish, but it was actually common sense, because our great-grand parents had a grand laundering only once every three months. A rule of these brave days appears on special occasions now, in a smart New York home. The linen damask cloth shown above was woven by hand in the days when George Washinton had a memory, and hand woven so finely that linen experts of today marvel at it. Narrow looms compelled the weavers to make this cloth in two strips, which are sewn together down the middle of the table. An interesting feature of this setting is that the ancient damask creates a background of harmony for the latest silver, whose design identifies matches the china. So, when the damask is well to remember that one is adding a permanent member to the household. Fine damask becomes an heirloom which acquires dignity with the years. CHARACTER. Something Wrong! There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to help relieve their own burdens. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't gain anything by fooling ourselves into thinking that everything is all right. Everything, affecting the lives of Afro-Americans, is all wrong. The sooner we face these facts, the quicker we will begin to work for our own salvation, the sooner we will attain our rightful place as American citizens. — Philadelphia Tribune. Improving Style Taste 1 By EMMA LOU FETTA IT should be interesting to women from coast to coast that Ameri-can-made fashions are being better styled each year. Of particular and special interest at this time is the newly formed and temporarily named "Fashion Group" made up of women who are working toward the improvement of good fashion techniques. These women include those who are fashion advisors to industries and retailers, women who are recognized fashion designers, and women who are fashion editors, lecturers and educators. Miss Marion Taylor of New York is president of this group and before long there will be regional leaders throughout the country. It will be of interest to hear from the women of this association and its success in promoting better taste in fashions. Illustrating today's article is a very well styled spring suit indicative of the new uses of fine cottonas. The peplum bouse is made of cotton, and it originally strong material called francois durene. The very fine mercerized cottonas, as you know, are now called by the general, quality identifying name of durene. This little suit with its smart gay dress was created by Birkle and Birkle one of the new American houses. Linen Chest BROWNE that was the quantity which the argy ago received in her trousseau, usually common sense, because our daunering only once every three years on special occasions now, in a damask cloth shown above was George Washington was more than likely that linen experts of today spelled the weavers to make this together down the middle of the setting is that the ancient damask for the latest silver, whose design well to remember that one is adding hold.
