Current rumor has it that $700 was allotted by the head of the local Republican organization to pay off the workers in Ward 17 for their labor on the recent primary election day. Their failure to receive it caused a delegation of them to investigate the delay in the payment for their services. It seems the women-workers were to receive $5 a piece but subsequently were paid only $2 which naturally has caused something unproper. The men-workers it seems up to date received only promises. This has caused another uproar. The question is what became of the balance of the $700 left after the women were paid only $3 each instead of $5 each. This The Rounder is investigating. The dollar each paid by our roadworkers, for tickets of admission to the dance of county employees at the Crystal Slipper, last month, who were refused entrance to the affair, has been returned to them, it is said. The refusal was a distressing and uncalled for insult to all of our people of this community that ought never to be repeated by persons who hold jobs largely thru the assistance of the 60,000 Afro-American voters in this (Cuyahoga) county. It is mighty poor politics, to say the least, and a matter our counselmen should not to carefully with a veto of fixing the responsibility for the same and taking such action against the person or persons responsible for it as the distressing experience warrants. --- According to a daily paper, last week, Rev. D. O. Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. church, contributed $10 to the Peter Witt primary campaign fund. That amount of money would have helped the church considerably just at this time because it has had a serious financial problem on its hands for many months that has worried greatly the good members and many friends of St. James. The Peter Witt candidacy didn't mean a thing to our people of this community. So "Brother" Walker's support of it was another one of the many political candidates he made during his short sojourn in our midst. Relative to his speeches for Witt, during the primary campaign, Carlton K. Matson, columnist of the Cleveland Daily Press, said Jan. 7: "His (Walker's) remark about "The policy games cleaning the 'Roaring Third' like Continental Shares cleaned Shaker Heights" was a smart phrase, the best of the current weeks. But when the Rev. Mr. Walker says, as he is quoted as saying, "They do not want honest men in the machine here," and that Morgan "sold out body and soul to the machine," he charges that the Republican candidate is a dishonest man and for that can not go with it. For Dale Danie, he remarkably honest man, and I think I know him. Morgan is an intelligent man, who surely feels in his heart that his course with Maurice Maschke can be followed without betrayal of the people." Oswald Garrison Villard. Oswald Garrison Villard.

New York City.—Two of our track stars retained their national titles during 1931: Eddie Tolan, former track star of Michigan University, A. K. national senior outdoor champion and intercollegiate champion in the 220-yard dash; and Phil. Edwards, lite Afro-Canadian runner, national indoor champion in the 600-yard run.

Washington, D. C.—The Jackson Day feast arranged by the Democrats of this city for Friday night, Jan. 8, was a gathering of Democratic chieftains that, according to many who "listened in," "broke out in sectionalism upon the first course and ran thrust out the hours of the feast." Dublin, the guest Dinar in honor and principal speakers were all leaders of a "lost cause" in reverse order—Smith in 1928, Davis in 1924, and Cox in 1920. Former Governor James M. Cox, of Dayton, Ohio, in his comment on prohibition, characterized "Thaddeus Stevens as a 'fanatic' and lauded Wade Hampton, Ben Hill, Lamar and other traitors, when he reminded his hearers of the attaining of Democrats of the north in the "Reconstruction Period." In his fervent appeal to the gratitude of the sons and daughters of the south to stand with the north, Cox said: "We forced the 'bloody shirt' leaders in the north aside and let the truth go to our people. May we not, now, respectfully ask that you call political ecclesiastics back to their pulpits that truth may go to your people." Negro Democrats, who tun in to catch notes of harmony, got instead an "earful" of "most discordant strains; and all 'leaners' of the race, who are now preparing to drink from the Democratic cup of 1932 must seriously ponder over the blasts emitted at this Democratic love-feast. To all Negro Americans, who take an ounce of pride in their present political and civic condition an analysis of the oratory and misuse of the Jackson Day dinner will insistently disclose a basis for the saddest reflections. The state mentions of Gov. Cox are sufficient to convince any thinking person that the Democratic party is as bitter to ward them now as it was in the balmy days of Jefferson Davis and Rob GREATEST BARRIER TO RACE PROGRESS The Editor Lashes the "Jim-Crow Negro" and Calls on Our Ministers to Lead in Third and Fourth District Efforts to Better Conditions. In spite of the very inclement weather, the Men's Civic club of Mt Zion Congregational church held a well-attended and very interesting meeting, late Sunday afternoon, Atty, Francis E. Young, secretary of the club, presented President Andrew Harris who presided and introduced the forum speaker for that day—Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette—whose topic, as advertised, was "The Greatest Barrier to Race Progress" (the "jim-crow Negro"). For approximately an hour, he discussed the subject so intently that audience attentiveness a standing vote of thanks, on motion of Mr. Young, and an invitation from President Harris to return as speaker for the forum at an early date. Editor Smith called the immoral conditions of the third and much of the fourth districts "unpardonable" and said there was no hope for betterment from political leaders who "seemed only interested in getting jobs for a few of their constituents, and were uninterested in ideals." He called on our ministers of the two districts to take the leadership in cleaning up "immorality so flagger that it is a menace to the younger generation." He said he was amazed that the men he was not more stirred over the very issue. Mr. Smith said he believed our race was not so strong in its fight for right as it was thirty years ago, deploring a tendency to compromise rights and privileges. He declared that if the people would stand up and fight for the right they would gain support from unexpected quarters. People of the district may have the right to point their fingers at other districts, but they should not consider conditions elsewhere an apology for their own district, he said. Again and again, the speaker had to stop because of an aplause he heard but did not deeply he is in the hearts of our people of Cleveland. A number of our oldest residents of the city were present. Editor Smith was at his best, speaking in glowing terms of Frederick Douglass, John M. Langston and John R. Price, as the great THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSTEST AND BEST published in the interest of Afro-Americans. DE COPY FIVE CENTS FIEND! ENS A 'FANATIC' ONE OF THE GRANDEST AMERICAN HISTORY friends—Appeals to the Home Political Support, at Demo- ert E. Lee. Gov. Cox, in his appeal to the southland, which is the bosom (and body) of the Democratic party, could have retained some respect for himself, and those to whose leadership he aspires, had he added an appeal to that same Democratic section to renounce lynchings, do away with mob violence, and give to citizens within their confines the equal protection of the laws. But the Governor, in his "wet heat," gave not a thought to the thousands of Negroes in the area to which he directed his supplications, who are even yet living in terror and fear of mob violence and other forms of illegal extermination, and peonage. The Gov. executive for such speciales as Scottsboro now presents, and along with his Democratic colleague Joy, Ritchie, of Maryland, has a blind eye and a deaf ear for such "trivials" none of which is as important as a glass of beer. As to Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania, now long since deceased, whose citizen-fellows so highly regarded him that they have erected a monument to his memory along with those to Grant, Lincoln and other heroes of our country, if there ver was a man whom Negroes should revere and honor, it is he. To Negroes, the life of Stevens approached that of a savior, a justice, a humanitarian. His zeal for right and justice remained firm through a long life of usefulness and left a memory of gratitude which Negroes of America can never forget. Negro Democrats and sympathizers should took deeply into the past—even at the life of Jackson himself, who so warmly praised and appreciared the life of Negroes under him at New Orleans—and trust the same with that of the present array of Democratic zealots such as Gov. Cox whose reflections would remove all doubt as to the party which should receive the benefit of Negro ballots in the coming presidential election. est leaders our people of this country have ever known. They were MEN who led and not men who followed with a hook in their noses. They got results! He contrasted those leaders with our present-day so-called leaders—from Washington, D. C., to Washington, Ohio, and said because of the lack of proper leadership we have lost ground, and segregation and "jim-crowism" were flourishing. Not until we get back to the principles of Douglass, Langton and Price and get rid of our "jim-crow leaders" will we make the greatly needed and desired progress. The speaker flayed the conditions in the "roaring third" which said he really extended to E. 9th St. for E. 10th St. to KKK Rd. to Cedar Ave. He literally "took the hide off" our three councillmen, terming them "spineless" when it comes to standing up for all the rights and privileges of our people in this community, as they should do. He also blamed our people of Cleveland, especially those in the third and fourth councillman districts, for sitting idly by and allowing such men to misrepresent them. The pastor of Mt. Zion, Rev. Russell S. Brown, and Mr. Emmett Meade of E. 130th St., followed with brief but very interesting talks, both praising the speaker's unusual and effective address. In closing the meeting Atty Young said: "Good. Honest. Hardy. courageous. The community needs men of your type. You are a leader in the two sense. We need you in Congress. We need you as a delegate to the next Republican National Convention at Chicago. You have won the sobriquet, 'the grand old man.'"

SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1932. Next Thursday, Jan. 28, is the editor's birthday, and Aug. 25, The Gazette's natal day. Yes, we will be "twenty-one years of age" again; and then some! That the Russian Soviet Union is making a world-wide effort to interest "Negro workers" in that organization is proven by the efforts of the Communists in this country and those abroad. Last week, we received a booklet from "The International Trade Union Committee of Negro Workers, 8, Rotherooodstrase, Hamburg, Germany — 1931", headed "Workers of the World Unite!" Their "strong arm" efforts, directed against government, in spite of the good they do make it impossible for the masses of our people to ever become affiliated with the organization. At City Council meeting, Monday, Ex-Mayor John D. Marshall, president of the council, appointed Councilman L. O. Payne chairman of its welfare committee; Councilman Leroy N. Bundy, chairman of the public service committee; and Councilman Clayborne George, head of the safety committee. Each committee is composed of nine members instead of seven, as was the case, the last two years. These appointments show that the local Republican organization is willing to place our councilmen in positions to do much of material consequence for our people of this community, if they would only try. MORE REPRESENTATION. The most refreshing piece of information that has been given to our voters of this community lately is the recent statement of Mr. Maurice Maschke, leader of the local Republican organization, to the effect that in event of the election of Daniel E. Morgan as mayor of Cleveland on Feb. 16, 1922, our people were to be given "more and better representation" in the city government. Since he is well-known to be a man who keeps his promises, there is in his statement the very best encouragement for our people to rally en masse to the support of the Republican candidate for mayor, especially since there is every probability of Welfare Director Dudley S. Blossom being dropped from the mayor's cabinet in compliance with the desire of the great majority of our more than 47,000 voters in this city. DePRIEST AND HAYNES. If Congressman Oscar DePriest and Dr. Geo. E. Haynes of the Federal Council of Churches would work half as hard to get their sponsors, the wealthy people and others in the East, to become active in an effort to help our people get their rights and privileges and better treatment South and North, as they are working for these same people against the Communists whose "strong arm" methods The Gazette does not endorse even if it does appreciate the help they are giving us, all concerned would be decidedly better off. DePriest and Haynes ought to have the same regard for the vital interests of their people as they seem to have for the interests of our government and wealthy whites in the East. It would be ever so much better for all concerned. It seems strange that it is so easy for influential and wealthy whites to get men like Haynes and DePriest to battle with Afro-Americans for whatever they want, even to the neglect of our people, to a greater or less extent. There are things of far more importance to Afro-Americans than the harm the Communists may be doing to either the wealthy of the country or the government. The latter is abundantly able to take care of itself and, too, without the assistance of Haynes and DePriest. As we said in the beginning, we do not approve of the "strong arm" methods of the Communists. At the same time it is well to recognize the fact that our people are not in a position in this country to refuse needed assistance from any source. We can depend upon the government protecting itself from the "strong arm" methods of the Communists, the Ku Klux Klan and kindred organizations. As a race or class of Americans, we are weak. The government is strong and all powerful, when it comes to protecting itself. We are in dire need of assistance of the right kind from every source, especially since the wealth of the country and the government fails us when it comes to the exercising of our rights and enjoying our privileges and getting proper treatment freely accorded all other races or classes of American citizens.

Chaffin, age 68, died, Sunday, at City hospital following a 12-year siege of illness. He was placed on the police pension-list, nine years ago, after serving 25 years mostly in the old Central station and second precincts. He suffered from heart-trouble and other ailments during that period of time and engaged in the real-estate business when able to do so.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1932 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 mor-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been 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 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.

(93 v. 149.) 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 1/2.) 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 1894-1896 General Assembly. The General Kode of Ohio. Sec. 12.240 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 facilities or privileges thereof shall be fined not less than fifty dollars more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12.241 Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundreds dollars to the persecutor 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. AN OPPORTUNITY!

ALEXANDER MORRIS What should women do to keep their bowels moving freely? A doctor should know the answer. That is why pure Syrup Pepsin is so good for women. It just suits their delicate organism. It is the prescription of an old family doctor who has treated thousands of women patients. It is fine for children, too. They love it too. Let them have it every time their tongues are coated and their skin is sallow. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is made from fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin and other harmless ingredients. When you've a sick headache, can't eat, are bilious or sluggish; and at the times when you are most apt to be constipated, take a little of this famous prescription (all drug stores keep it ready in big bottles), and you'll know why Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the favorite laxative of over a million women.

TWO French cities, Bordeaux and Carcassonne, the former a great port and the latter a sleepy ancient inland town, are literally in the way of the canal which France is planning to dig from the Atlantic ocean to the Mediterranean sea, thus affording a new waterway to the Mediterranean from the west. Bordeaux will be the Atlantic terminus of the canal, which will include portions of the Garonne river and the Canal du Midi which was built in 1681. The canal will be about 280 miles long and will cost approximately $160,000,000. circle. Low white house place of the tenements of other French city public buildings are greater center of the city along per line the imposing quay terrestre. The whole city ed by a circle of boulevard. The Cathedral of St. A in the Eleventh century, one of the best propant churches in southern Pont de Bordeaux, one of connecting the city with the of the Garonne, was long among the finest in the of the magnificent priva Bordeaux is seldom in the headlines in peace times, but let Paris be threatened from the north or the east, and Bordeaux would doubtless resume its old place in the spotlight. During the Franco-Prussian war, when the enemy occupied Paris, and again during the early days of the World war, before the Germans had been stopped in their initial rush on the French capital, the machinery of government was hastily transferred to the great commercial city on the left bank of the Garonne. At the time of the French revolution, too, the Girondists used Bordeaux as their chief headquarters. Geography is Bordeaux' trump card, not only in time of war but in time of peace as well. Although a seaport, the city is 60 miles from open sea on a river that provides, adequate docking facilities but is still not deep enough for warships of heavy draft. A few barges, judiciously sunk across the channel, would block everything else at any time desired. Far down in the southwestern part of France, the city has prospered almost undisturbed since it first came into prominence as the capital of Aquitania Secunda of the Romans. Bordeaux, however, should not be regarded only as a governmental pinchhitter. It is a thriving commercial city, the fourth in population in France, and has a foreign trade exceed, among French ports, only by Marseilles and Havre. With the province of Burgundy, in the eastern part of France, the district around Bordeaux shares the wine-producing honors of the country. Bordeaux is largely terra incognita to the average tourist. None of the large transatlantic lines from North America terminates here, although there are many smaller companies, especially those connecting France with South America. Nor is it on any heavily traveled route to other parts of Europe. Bordeaux cannot benefit by way-traffic, as can Marseilles, Nice or Lyons. Travelers to Spain and to the shore resorts on Biarritz generally pass through the city without stopping. The American doughboy, however, knows Bordeaux. When the United States went into the World war the railroads in the northern part of France were greatly overworked and choked with traffic. The northern ports, too, were menaced by the submarine. The Brest southward conditions were better. Brest, St. Nazaire, Nantes, Bordeaux and Bayonne thus spring suddenly into front-page headlines of American newspapers. Docking facilities, even at Bordeaux, were rather poor at that time. It was necessary for American engineers virtually to reconstruct some of the ports. In the spring of 1917 only two large ships could berth for uploading at the same time in Bordeaux, but a year later there were places for fifteen vessels. Bassen, a small village six miles down the Garonne from Bordeaux, was given fine docks and warehouses. A great deal of the supplies and ammunition of the A. E. F. were landed here. Bordeaux was one of the few cities to benefit by the war. Commercial but Attractive Despite the fact that it is largely a commercial city, Bordeaux is, in many respects, very attractive. The main part of the city curves around the left bank of the Garonne river, which at this point describes a wide semi- circle. Low white houses take the place of the tenements so characteristic of other French cities, while the public buildings are grouped in the center of the city along public gardens or line the imposing quays of the waterfront. The whole city is surrounded by a circle of boulevards. The Cathedral of St. Andre, started in the Eleventh century, is considered one of the best proportioned Gothic churches in southern France. The Pont de Bordeaux, one of the bridges connecting the city with the right bank of the Garonne, was long considered among the finest in the world. Many of the magnificent private homes of the city were built when the great merchants of Bordeaux were at the height of their wealth and power, and are comparatively modern. Around Bordeaux are smiling hills and fresh valleys, covered with vineyards. The vines they produce have made the district famous and have sent the names of Medoc, Graves, Sauternes, St. Emilion, etc., around the world. Nearby also is the little town of Cognac, which has lent its name to the most potent of French liquids. It is the center of the brandy trade of the district. South of Bordeaux stretch great pine forests and regions of waving grass, like those of our southern Atlantic states. Carcassonne Is Two Towns. Carcassonne straddles the River Aude about 56 miles southeast of Toulouse. Travelers arriving at the railway station in the so-called new town on the west bank of the Aude scan the panorama for a city of antiques, but it is not found on that side of the river. The new town is only about three hundred years older than early American towns. Some of the inhabitants of the old town across the river revolted against the king of France and were driven out of the old town walls. They were allowed to settle on the site of the new town. That was in 1247. A beautiful, shaded parkway near the railroad station introduces Carcassonne, but a few steps beyond the traveler is hemmed in between walls of stone and brick buildings rising sheer from the sidewalks. The streets run at right angles, forming solid blocks, the monotony of which is relieved only by a few squares and small parks and a wide, shaded boulevard. The Place Carnot is a combined market place, loafing place, and meet- ing place. Famous Walls of the Old City. Cross the River Aude, enter the gates of the old town, and you are on a site which was occupied by a settlement somewhere back in the mists of history. You may cross the Aude by a modern bridge or, with the ancient rampants ahead of you, you might prefer the old Thirteenth century span. The frowning gray walls of the old town were impregnable when battering rams were the "high explosives" of attackers. There are two walls with about 28 feet between them. One glance at these rampants convinces the traveler that one historian was right when he said that only famine or treason within the walls could cause the capture of the town. The walls form an irregular oval about the old town and have only four openings. One opening in each wall is large enough to admit horses and wheeled vehicles, and each is guarded by a series of turrets and towers. The other openings are mere holes in the walls, wide enough for only one man to squeeze through. Inside, narrow, cobbled streets breathe an atmosphere of many centuries ago. There is the venerable St. Nazaire Cathedral with stained-glass windows depleting Bible scenes, and the Chateau, where high walls once echoed with the gay revelry of Carcassonne feudal lords. These old structures look down upon streets almost deserted, for the life of Carcassonne today is in the new town where the wine trade, one of the old trades of the city, still flourishes. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1932 ACCESSORIES MAKE BIG RUN ON METAL Winter accessories are making a big run on metal. Handbags are using wide bands of shining silver to finish off the flap of an envelope, or to construct the top. Imposing monograms, in gold or in silver, are featured impressively on street handbags. The ever-present belt fastens more often with an important-looking metal buckle than with any other kind. Aluminum is making bracelets of assorted widths to wear with winter woolen outfits. Metal buttons and Schlardpell's metal clips are proving both useful and ornamental in dress and coat fashions. Tiny metal kid pipings are featuring upon formal afternoon and evening slippers—metal kid heels on the latter. Maggy Rouff sponsors the return of old-fashioned colonial buckles for shoes, made of silver, or of cut steel. as Magnificent Furs Nothing is more luxurious or flatteringly becoming than magnificent fur, or fur-trimmed coats and the rich velvets and lames that glorify our afternoon frocks. Any woman becomes a figure of delight and romance when she wears, say a velvet coat with rich fur providing a soft frame for her face, a slim velvet frock and perhaps a cluster of snowy gardenias to set off the deep black of the velvet. And if she seeks color, surely the lame frocks and the lovely coats in brown, red or green offer ample opportunity for colorful attire. Winter Sports Trouers Asa Margo Volkmi to Be More Voluminous Troussers for winter sports costumes will be more voluminous this season, but will keep a very neat waistline at the same time. Many of the smart skiing suits just appearing at the big sport designers have the blouse buttoning on to the inside of the trousers, with a slimming belt outside. Others have a belt attached to the bottom of the blouse and still others join the two garments with a zip fastener which keeps the waist terribly trim and trig. Lace Frock Repeats Its Triumphs By CHERIE NICHOLAS BY CHELLE NICHOLNS by C. W. ALL through the winter style program the lace frock for afternoon and evening wear proved a favorite and now at the threshold of a new season the world of fashion is yielding to the lure of lace with renewed enthusiasm. With milder weather coming on and with the opportunity to wear light garb which sunny winter resort environment presents, the flair for lace is taking on an outstanding significance. It makes it the more interesting that the midseason and resort fashions reveal the use of so many kinds of lace. Furthermore, when one considers that not only party and afternoon frocks are scheduled to be of lace, but that jacket suits tailored all of lace are foretold in advance Paris collections, one realizes that lovely and flattering lace is destined to play a very important role during the coming months. Generally speaking, the new lace are divided into three classes, namely, cotton, wool and silk with some very attractive linen types also being shown. Alencons and valenciennes are dividing honors in the cotton range, and they are as a rule of the most exquisite sort. A most beguiling effect and one which promises a program of lovely debutante gowns is valenciennes lace in dress width. It comes in white or in pastel shades. Many of the alencon laces employed are also dyed, and if the dress is not entirely of lace, then this colorful and designful fine mesh is worked in for yokes or for the popular contrasting bodge top. Some designers are showing black frocks topped with this sort of lace dyed perhaps a vivid green or red or deep pink or a delectable old blue. The revival of Irish crochet lace is also a matter of comment. At a recent style display, a dress entirely of this type lace was greatly admired. It is said that for lingerie touches on the spring crochet, Irish crochet will be very smart. There is also a new variety called Your Copy or an Acqu Nothing So Flattering CHIC CAPE WRAP By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Cape wraps are the last word in Paris. This one is typical of those favored by the haunted mound. While the original model was in bright blue the same style would be equally as effective in black or any color which would relate it to the dress with which it is worn. The inevitable trimming of white fur is accented on this beautiful evening wrap. Paris says that even in town on wintry days, the white hat will be chic. Chenille, felt knitted wool, suede and velvet is used. One adorable hat of white is made entirely of closely matted feathers. A double row of net ruching is the unusual finish to the shirt of a recent velvet gown. 1920 angel skin lace. A suit fashioned of pink angel skin lace comes from the atelier of a French style creator. The jacket and skirt are somewhat tailored, a distinguishing feature being a spiral banding of dainty gray fur on each sleeve. Favor for wool lace continues especially in growing red tones. The lovely gown with the bertha collar developing into a cape effect at the back as shown to the right at the top of this picture is of ruby red wool lace. The soft undulating movement of the flare of the skirt accents a graceful silhouette. Chantilly is in delicate shadowy patterning in a foremost favorite when it comes to handsome silken meshes. Dresses of these filmy laces are often enhanced with charming scarf arrangements or by clever drop-shoulder treatments. The exquisite dress to the right below in the picture is just such as women of discriminating taste recognize at a glance as being exclusive. This charming model has a fachu-like cape of the lace which ties in a generous soft bow at the front, at the same time that it achieves a quant and lovely neckline. Taffeta cordings stiffen the tiers of the full skirt and the peplum. Speaking of colorful effects, the handsome costume to the left is fashioned of almond green lace. The pictureque cape of lace is fur collared. It is designed to serve also as a dainty wrap with other dresses as it is detachable. © 1922, Western Newspaper Union. y of The aintance w White Winter Hats SOME OF THE MANY Letters Relative to the Editor's Probable Candidacy for Congress-man-at-Large—Do Our People Really Want It? Columbus, O., Dec. 26, '31. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Sir: I—have been told you were thinking of running for Congressman at-Large, next year. If you do, I am with you and will try and get you some help. We need a man of your type—who is not afraid to fight. Would be glad to hear from you. Yours truly, John Fossett. Columbus, O. Dec. 6th, 1931 Bon Harry C. Smith Bronx, N.Y. Died on O. My Dear Harry:—I am sending the enclosed clipping from the "Sunday Dispatch" and hope that the candidacy statement it contains is also "Since Ohio is to elect two Congressmen-at-Large, this fall, the very large population of colored people in this state, which numbers, according to the U. S. census of 1930, more than three hundred thousand, feel that at least one of the two should be a member of their race or group. The Hon. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, their outstanding state figure in Ohio politics, for six years a member of the Ohio State Assembly, and their candidate on several occasions, in recent years, the Governor, is being imported from various states to become a candidate for Congressman-at-Large. It will be recalled that about ten years ago Mr. Smith, when a candidate for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State, his first effort to be elected to a state office, polled in excess of sixty thousand votes. Mr. Smith has edited and published The Cleveland Gazette for nearly fifty years and is the father of Ohio's Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law, and Ohio's Civil Rights Law, two measures of the greatest importance to his people in him. The letter requests, writing him to the letter request, to be a congressional at-Large, are being seriously considered by Editor Smith who expects to announce his decision in the matter soon after the first of the year." To my mind it is the most important racial step that has been taken in years. It is highly opportune as it is taken immediately after one of those abnormal political upheavals in which my people played no small part and received scant recognition thereafter. Gov. Geo White has made one Negro appointment since he came to the capitol—Roy White, messenger in his office. For a few weeks after his seating, the halls and corridors leading to his office were thronged with the "promised and expectant" of my folk, but as time waned the got scarcer and rarier. They are reeling the difference. He is seldom in his office and I have observed that of them seem to get farther than the messenger's desk. The Wil-berforce contingent has not paid one visit. Compared to this was the almost daily visit of some Negro of worth, and his admission to the privacy of Gov. Cooper's inner sanctum. He made more outstanding Negro appointments than any other Governor in my "short" political life and any that have been politically removed have been repaired. I should be for pages in this letter, should be for pages in this letter, the differences, but such is not my aim. I want to write about you. I have thot about the congressional chance for days and scanned mentally the men we could present and how we could win. Strangely my thoughts were of you and "mirabile dictu" out comes The Dispatch's anecdote. Your probable entry. Well, you are the man to present and you are the man that has the ability to represent our race, and if you can't win, no other one can. I have been pondering over the style and manner of a winner's campaign and find the lessons I learned in fifteen years at Republican state headquarters are worthwhile. Every church, lodge, society organization, in fact every Negro in the 4,000 precincts in the state should be informed of your candidacy. It is possible to do this. I will not write further other than to say I am enthusiastic and think you can win. Sincerely your friend, Bart J. Guyder. A CONGRESSMAN-AT-LARGE The 1930 U. S. census gives the Afro-American population of Ohio as 369,304 and the number of Afro-Americans of voting age as 199,291, which really means that our state population is at least 325,000 and that our real number of voting age in Ohio is more than 200,000. Figuring from almost any angle our Ohio population and voting strength, this latter especially as a potent factor of the Republican party of the state, proves beyond the shadow of a doubt the fact that we are entitled to one of the two Congressmen-at-Large to be elected in November next. If our men and women voters of this state would only register and vote as they should, they could easily bring about the nomination of one of their number, this fall, and elect him a member of the Congress to help represent the great state of Ohio and at the same time give them much-needed direct representation in that law-making body of the land.

Miss Wilhemina Gray, whose portrait appears above, is one of a score of "Creole" fascinators who dance in For Chubby Legs SPEAKING of chubby legs that are playing go, reminds us inevitably of the kind of hosiery that wears best. No human being is capable of putting greater strain on its sox than the young of a nation. In looking over the hosiery market, we discovered that wool mixtures, so called, are very popular for winter. The word "mixture" means two good textiles knitted together. The durable wool and durene combination is in great vogue with cautious mothers right now. Buyers in several stores explained that this is because woollen gloves grow fast enough without having sox shrink "to boot". When mixed with durene, wool is very unlikely to shrink. The youngster shown on the tricycle is wearing all-durene sox, plenty warm enough for any but the most severe weather. An added feature is soft elastic placed in the "cuff" of the sock to help keep it warm. The shirt should be pearl, of course be so tight as to bind the little leg and step free circulation.
