Bundy were elected vice-presidents of the Western Reserve Republican Club, last week Thursday evening. What was the idea in ignoring Councilman Clayborne George? Humor has it that it is not harmonious with "The Plosion Tripole" is not a Plosion George vs. Bundy, and that the first named supports George's leadership of the trio. Stepin Fetchit, well-known slowspeaking "movies" comedian from Hollywood, Cal., was in the city the first of the week en route to Cincinnati. Current rumor has it that too generous an idea of the value of his services caused his downfall in the "movies", his success in "Hearts Diary" and his refusal. He refused $500 weekly from Fox which he now wishes he had accepted. Then Stepin had three big cars to ride in and was very prosperous otherwise. Now, he is riding the railroad looking for engagements in vaudeville and doing his own booking. This reminds us of Charles Glipur during his success started him drinking and this finished him, as far as the "movies" were concerned, and ruined his health, it is said. Smarting under an article in this department of The Gazette of Jan. 16, '32, in which reference was made to him as one of the "infravoled independent Democrats who ever pasted in Cleveland" and suggesting that he "had better resign," the Rev. James K. Nickens, sponsor of the quoted passages in this article, Pope's drug store, Cedar Ave. and E. $8d St., one evening last week, and said to him, so we are informed: "If it were not for your grey-hair, I would whip you!" To which Dr. Nickens replied, it is said that he would be pleased to accompany him outside, particularly before the store was no place for such talk. The author wrote the little colloquy. Fine (?) language for the pastor of a church to indulge in any where, especially in a public place. In 1930, Gov. Myers Y. Cooper polled 81,336 votes in the city of Cleveland. Governor White (Dem.) received 105,726 votes. There were 246,338 registered voters in this city in 1931. At the recent Republican DUKE'S GYMNASIUM THE MUSEUM pacity 60,000 gallons; lockers and dressing rooms for girls and boys, a playing floor 70 by 114 feet, and outside dimensions 87 by 116 feet. Wilkinson, who during his twenty years administration has added buildings primaries, 59,348 votes were cast for Daniel E. Morgan, Republican. He received 13,497 votes in wards 11, 12, 17 and 18. According to the U. S. census of 1930, 67 per cent of our Cleveland population were 21 years of age, making 47,953 Afro-Americans eligible to vote here, some of whom attended a course. The U. S. census does say that our vote of this city is eight and one-half per cent of the total voting strength of Cleveland. What per cent of the total Republican vote of Cleveland is its Afro-American vote? Two things must be taken into consideration in answering this question. One thing is the fact that the full Republican Council in 1930 did receive the full Republican vote of this city. The other is how many of the 47,953 Afro-American residents of the city are registered and are Republican voters? When this information is secured, one can easily figure out what per cent of the total Republican vote of Cleveland is the Afro-American Republican vote of this city. One thing is sure, and that is why the Council in 1930 indeed not the most important factor, of Cleveland's total Republican vote. SHOT TO DEATH! A Popular High School Student Murdered by a Coal-Miner—Jealousy the Cause—The Slayer in Stebenville Jail. Cadiz, O.—Rev. and Mrs. W. T. Biggers were at Wayman A. M. E. church, Martins Ferry, Sunday afternoon, assisting in the service.—An infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Karl Smith of Smithfield was buried here Wednesday.—The Eastern Star is holding a silver-tea at Miss Katherine Johnson's. Feb. 7 at 2:30 p.m.—Cadiz was shocked by the tragedy at Mt. Pleasant, last week Friday afternoon, when Wilfred Bradford, age 18, senior high school student, was shot and insulted for a bad period, for a rejected suitor. The girl was superintendent of the A. M. E. S. S., an excellent singer and very popular. Winfried and George were close friends until the first of the year when her relatives caused her to quit going with him. She and Leon Fields of Mt. Pleasant then became friends, and he walked to school with her Friday morning. At noon, Lindsey met her and tried to have her "make up" with him. Failing, he waited for his in car in front of a restaurant period, apparently in good humor. The girl started away. George pulled a revolver and fired. She fell with three bullet wounds in her back. He then bulleted over, lifted her head and kissed her. Placing the body beside the pavement, Lindsey warned persons nearby not to touch her, returned to his auto and drove away. John Williams, her stepfather, secured a shot gun and with other residents started out to locate the young miner. Meanwhile word came that he had surrendered at Emerson, near Mt. Pleasant. He had gone there to visit a victim hired with Mrs. Mary Bradford who had adopted her. Her stepfather and her mother, Pauletta Bradford Williams, residents of Chicago, were visiting in Mt. Pleasant when the murder occurred. Lindsey is in the Jefferson Co. jail. The funeral, Tuesday afternoon, was largely attended, a very sad one. Interment in Short Creek cemetery. Mrs. J. C. Embry is chairman of the school board in district 12, (Harlem) N. Y. City, with six public schools and one vocational school for boys under her jurisdiction. whose total cost, for erection and equipments, is more than one million dollars. Prof. Wilkinson is not only a graduate of Oberlin College but a member of the University of The Gazette, having been a member of its staff, many years ago. THE WAR IN CHINA The Japs Not Interested in the Ameri can Negro—Rate Him Lower With the Chinese. New York City.—All the elements for a new and bloody world-slaughter are today present in the Chinese situation. The Japanese seizure, last November, of Manchuria has been followed not only by a ruthless campaign of savage suppression against the masses in that section of China, but with an attempt by the Japanese to extend their conquest into inner Mangolia and central China. The latest development is the attempt to seize the important South China city of Shanghai, the gateway to the rich Yangtze valley. This has brot Japan into a sharp clash with the United States and other powers. The clash has been especially sharp between Japan and this country. This because the Japanese threat at Shanghai affects particularly the position of Washington government has interpreted the Japanese move as a direct menace to Wall Street's hegemony over that part of central China. The U.S. government has openly threatened naval and military action against Japan. Secretary of State Stimson is sounding out the British and Italian governments on the question of joint naval and military action against Japan. Japan is by no means a champion of the darker races. Only the putrid mind of a sick Negro bourgeois could imagine Japan in the role of champion of the oppressed colonial masses when Japan is herself openly pursuing a policy of robbery and oppression in the Pacific and Chinese masses. Within the past two months Japan has openly and repeatedly urged upon other nations a policy of joint-armed intervention against the Chinese masses. HAWAII (From the Anderson Indiana Herald) In Hawaii the white man is reaping what he sowed, and, as is so often the case, is unwilling to accept the harvest. When the white man found the Hawaiian islands they were, indeed, the paradise of the Pacific. The natives were happy, carefree and healthy, with a sex life that was pure and beautiful. Disease, immorality and crime were part of the "civilization" the white man introduced to the islands. Bravery against white women by natives half-breeds were inevitable, but while the white race is demanding protection for its women let it be consistent and demand respect from its own kind for the native women. Attacks upon a bore half-dezen white women aroused to fervor heat the passions of Christian whites who have never lifted a finger or uttered a word in protest against spoliation of Hawaiian womanhood by whites. Hawaii's population has been corrupted, not improved, by contact and interbreeding with other races. American women living on the islands probably have done nothing to earn the disrespect of the natives or to encourage their babies, but there is reason to suspect that they are living and (white men and women) visiting on the islands, have not set the best of examples. It has been the history of the white race that whatever it finds it either murders or despoils. Its treatment of the Indians from the time of the Spanish conquistadors up to the present has some exceptions, shameful and brutal. But it always demands good Christian treatment from heathen savages. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS FRESH OHIO NEWS FRESH OHIO NEWS WRITTEN BY "THE OLD RELIABLE" GAZETTE'S CORRESPONDENTS.

It is sim- ply a little “political play to the gal- lery” on the part of “The Blossom Triplet.” i ‘WALKER, WRONG AGAIN. “Byery time a minister enters pol- ities, he loses friends,” Rev. D. 0. Walker, pastor of St. James’ A. M. B, church, said, Sunday afternoon, at a meeting of the church’s forum in which “The Minister in Politics” was discussed. “The safest ground is for bim to stay out,” Rev, Mr Walker added, “put I'm not going to. It politics ‘are not clean, who will clean them up? Not the man with dirt in his heart, I think—it will take af man with God in his heart to do it.” Several members of the forum said they felt it was all right for a min- ister to participate in politics but not to the extent of taking the stump to campaign for a particutar candidate. The members of the forum could have gone further and still have teen right. As a matter of fact un- less there {s some moral issue, the minister who dabbles in politics 1s making'a big mistake. He not only “Yoses friends”, but injures his standing in the community as well as that of: his church. Both are ma- terially harmed dy his activity in politics, “stumping”, cam- paigning. One does not seo lead: ing ministers of any other group in this, or any other community, doing it, Rarely, indeed, does any of them make that mistake. It makes a min- ister entirely too common, endeavor ing to do the impossible, mix re- Higion and politics. This is what Walker has been trying to do ever since he arrived in the city. Then, too, he seems to have the “happy faculty” of habitually getting in wrong, even in politics. He says he is not going to stay out of it but is going to continue to try to’ “clean them up,” because “it takes a man with God in his heart to do it.” There are many good people in this com- munity who feel sure, for one rea- son and another, that the Rev. Dr. D. Ormonde Walker is not that man because of the very questionable course he has steadily pursued ever since he came to Cleveland, four or five years ago. It is now high time that his charge, St. James A. M. E. church, should take a hand in the matter, for its own “good and wel- fare,” and give its pastor to under- stand that he can either “stay out” of politics or the pastorate of that church. We doubt very much that the “man in polities with dirt in his heart” knows that the Rev. Mr. Wal- ker is a resident of the city, from anything that the latter has said or done in local, state or national poli- tics, The “brother” would have our people believe that he has taken seriously his own activity in local politics. It is to laugh! WHAT'S ROTTEN IN HAWAII. ‘The Cleveland Daily Press in an ‘editorial says there is: “something rotten in Hawall.” Absolutely no doubt of it! But the rottenness is to be placed at the door of the Amer- jean saflors and marines whose con- fect with the native women of the country bas been such, for years, as to get on the nerves of Hawaiian men who are undoubtedly retaliat- ing by having contact with Ameri- ‘ean women (white), especially those who spread themselves in abbrevi- ated bathing suits on the beach while the “beach boys" (Kanakas, native Hawatian men) rub their bodies with cocoanut oil so they can take on “a good tan”, according to Miss Dorothy Mackail, noted U. S. film star-actress, Out of this contact, according to Miss Mackail, have grown many “affairs” between wealthy American white Jwomen and native Hawaiians. So it fs not difficult, but.a very simple matter, to place the blame where it belongs and show that there is ab- solutely no justification for the high: handed and brutal murder, in true “southern” style, of a Hawaiian by three members of the U. S, navy with the assistance of the mother of the wife (ot one of the three, a leuten- ant) whom it is claimed was “at- acked” by the native killed. “The initial high-handed attitude of the navy toward the Hawaiian civil gov- ‘rnment and regular judicial pro- cesses’? was also very ‘southern’ snd charactcristic of the treatment ee officials abroad when having contact with ved, yellow, brown and black peo- ales. Even Admiral W. V. Pratt, chiet of naval operations, Washing- ton, D. C., in speaking of the “Ha- wailan affair”, showed this animus so plainly in an early newspaper in- terview that he was compelled later on to qualify and soften it even tho American newspapers still continue the effort to make people believe that there has been a “‘general break- down of justice” in the island and that the natives are all to blame which, of course is not true. The fact becomes clearer almost daily that there has béen gross “naval ursurpation of power" and American rottenness in Hawaii that “stinks to high Heaven” just as it did and still does in Haiti where the American ‘naval power dominates. MUSIC AS A MEANS TO EDUCATIONAL END. Thruout the country, a great deal of attention is being given by high schools, colleges and universities to music, and they are thaking use of the student who can perform on some instrument, providing facilities for those who must work their way thru high-school and college. Not only are youths finding skill on some instrument a decided help in finane- ing their college course, but also a social help as well. With an increas- ing number of schools, granting cre- dits on music as a curricular study toward a degree, and with musical meets, band and glee club contests gaining in popularity, opportunity is seeking the youth who is musically prepared, and at the same time is extending the field of endeavor to music teachers as well. There are universities that make surveys dur- ing the summer in an effort to de- termine the quality of musical talent that will seek enrollment on their opening dates. There is also a facul- ty committee conected with an east- ern school that supervises an em- ployment burean that places hundr-ds of student-musicians in paying jobs during each vacation period. This is indeed music's day. FIVE FOR ONE! Cummings, Bryant, Agazzie, Riley ‘and Dorsey Convicted as a Re- sult of “Policy Queen's Murder.> Five men and seven women, late last week Wednesday, convicted Thomas Dorsey, age 28. of first-der-ee murder in the slaying May 11 of Ger- aldine, wife of “Hot Stuff” Johncon and “policy queen”, and incidentally, set a record because five men have ween held accountable for her mur- der. Leonard Cummings and Wm. Bryant were convicted, several weeks ago, and sentenced to life. James Agazzie and Mancy Riley pled guilty to homicide and are awaiting sen- tence. The jury trying Dorsey final- ly agreed to recommend mercy. Un- fer the law he must serve a life term. Dorsey's attorneys, Perry A. Yrey and Perry B, Jackson, an- nounced that they would ask for a new trial. Court attaches said they ~sealled no case in which five defend- ants had been sentenced in Cuyahoga County for the murder of one person. NEGROES LED THE WORLD. Anthropologist Declares Race Domi- nated Africa and India. ‘The findings of eminent archeolo- ists and recent anthropological dis- coveries indicate that Negroes at one time dominated the clvilizations of Rgypt and India, as well as all of Africa, according to J. A. Rogers of New York City, a member of the In- stitute of Anthropology of Paris, who addressed Mt. Zion's Men's Civie club, Sunday afternoon. “They were a race of supermen who perished thousands of years ago,” Mr. Rogers said. He spoke on “The Black Man's Contribution to the World's Civilization.” ‘Mr, Rogers recently returned from Paris. He has spent seven years in Europe and Africa investigating the historical and anthropological back- ground of men and women of Afri- can descent. He is now writing a book, an advance edition of which has been published under the title, “World's Greatest Men of African De- scent.” Central Pupils. Star.

When the whole truth is given to the American people, instead of a small part of it with a lot of propa- ganda intended to justify particular- ly the acts of our representatives, diplomatic and naval, in China, the Japanese will be found to be not so much to blame. They have had much unfairness and mistreatment from the Chinese who have ignored treaty relations, and undoubtedly have been provoked to a large ex- tent into the course they are follow- ing. Japan has one of the best ar- mies and navies in the world, today, and was accumulating wealth dur- ing the world war while all the other countries engaged in it were getting head-over-heels in debt. And ever since Japan has been preparing tor war. It will be well to remem- ber this, especially when inclined to be influenced by misleading propa- ganda in the American daily news- papers. f “WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN eee Cleveland, O., Aug, 28th, 1925.

Relief is immediate! * There's scarcely ever an ache or pain that Bayer Aspirin won't relieve—and never a time when you can't take it. The tablets with the Bayer cross are always safe. They will not depress the heart, or otherwise harm you. Use them as often as they can spare you any pain or discomfort. Just be sure to buy the genuine. Examine the box. Beware of imitations.

Good old Castorial There's comfort in every drop of this pure vegetable preparation, but it's not the frequent use. As often as Baby has a fretful spell, is feverish, or cries and can't sleep, let Castoria soothe and quiet him. Sometimes it is a touch of the colic; or constipation. Or dreaded diarrhea—a condition that should be checked if it doesn't cause discomfort and give it promptly. Relief will follow very promptly; if it doesn't you should call a physician. Fletcher's CASTORIA AFTER 40 bowel trouble Constipation may very easily become chronic after forty. And any continued constipation at that time of life may bring attacks of piles and a host of other unpleasant disorders. Watch your bowels at any age. Guard them with particular care after forty. When you have any help, remember a doctor knows best. "Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin" is a doctor's prescription for the bowels. Tested by 47 years' practice, it has been found thoroughly effective in relieving constipation and its ills for men, women and children of all ages. It has proven perfectly safe even for babies. Made from wheat, soy and other harmless ingredients, it cannot gripe; not will sicken you or weaken you; can be used without harm as often as your breath is bad, or when your tongue is coated; whenever a headache, bilious, gassy condition warns you of constipation.

Dear Mr. Metzenbaum:—I am with you and the other members of the school board, respecting the public. More power to you! The old board has not recognized the moral and spiritual demand of 71,000 Colored citizens for the employment of thirty-five per cent of the teaching and clerical staff at Central High school, and that 71,000 personal constituents per ninety per cent of the students of Central High school. Many of our young men and women are graduating from Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Northwestern, Ohio State, Howard, Fisk, Western Reserve and many other universities and colleges of our country, and are trained to teach in high schools. But they are denied the opportunity to teach at Central High school on account of race. As an incentive to stimulate better deportation on the grounds at Central High school, and to greater educational strides and inter-racial respect.

(Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.)—WNU Service. THE world's largest market is planned for a five-block tract in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The market will have access to all railroads entering the city and also direct communication, by tunnel, with the city's port. No city in the United States is so important to us as Buenos Aires is to Argentina. It handles four-fifths of all Argentina's trade, and houses 20 per cent of all the nation's 10,000,000 inhabitants. All its 2,000,000 people are either Europeans or of European descent. This is true of only one other Latin American city—Montevideo. Three times as big as Spain's largest city, modern Buenos Aires—as expanded and rebuilt in the last 30 years—is conspicuous in all the world for its magic growth. The whole 25,000-mile railway system of Argentina has its focus here—the finest railroads in South America. No great motor highways radiate from the city, because the vast pampaff afford no road-making materials. But by rail and river Buenos Aires handles more than half as much freight as the port of New York, and the net tonnage of ships calling each year is equal to all that passes through the Panama canal. Not trade alone makes it great. Its social, artistic and political attractions rank it among the world's most dazzling capitales. To it flock the rich, the influential, the intelligencia of all Argentina. "Our country as a whole would develop faster," said one prominent banker, "if more of our best brains would stay in the provinces." Stock Farms Are Enormous. Yet, although so many land owners live in the city, the swift, prodigious growth of herds and farming on the vast campos is an economic phenomena in this comparatively new country. In Europe the Argentine visitor is noted among hotels, resorts and shopkeepers for the freedom with which he spends money. These immense incomes are mostly from the soil. One Estancia in Santa Fe province runs 50,000 cattle, and boasts of prize bulls costing $10,000 each and upwards. There are 25,000 hogs, 1,200 horses, a creamy making 4,000 pounds of butter daily for export to England; a private telephone system, a rambling chalet set in an artificial forest of imported trees, swimming pools, tennis courts—a princely estate that would make even a Texas cattle king dumb with astonishment. Similar ranches lie near Buenos Aires; others are far away, on the pampas. Their number, size, and money-making organization amazes the tourist—with school-book memories of wood-cuts showing a hard-riding gaucho swinging a three-balled lasso over his head and chasing a longhorn steer—or an ostrich. Nature is kind to Buenos Aires. Up the Parana are the majestic falls of Iguaqua, and Guayra, solemn and stupendous, ranking with Niagara and Victoria in Africa. Up the Andes and under the shadow of Aconcagua—highest mountain in the Western world—runs a cogwheel railway that lifts you in a few hours from green plains to Alpine heights and snowdrifts 20 feet deep, where Argentine soldiers train on skis. Winter hotels are here now—a new St. Moritz. And there is ancient Cordoba, historic Tucuman, the famous baths of Rosario. And as melons and oranges rush to our East from California and Florida, so Argentina's fruits flow into Buenos Aires. It lives well. Whole trainloads of fresh grapes come from the famed vineyards of Mendoza—and many reach our own markets. New York is at one end, Buenos Aires at the other, of a busy trade route. Now both sea and sky ships serve it. And ships are "ceaseless shuttles weaving the fabric of international commerce and good will." American Investments Heavy. Mutual trade has brought huge American investments to Buenos Aires, notably in packing houses, public utilities and banks. Two Yankee concerns alone control more than 100 light and power units in Argentina. Here, too, you see the new policy of great American corporations applied, by which now their Argentine employees are encouraged to become stockholders. Youth, vitality, sheer enjoyment of living, they are the attributes of Buenos Aires. Shiny new motor cars; fascinating, Paris-like shop windows; are lights glaring on well-dressed midnight crowds in brilliant Calle Florida; cafes, casinos, high-priced restaurants and hotels, all packed with chattering, laughing people. Endless places of amusement, including the great Grecian Colon theater; and, on billboards, many names familiar to Broadway: Titta Schipa, Chaliapin, Spellelli, Mistinguette, "Peliculas Parlantes," they call the "talkies." And still it grows. Here lands the immigrant stream. Bearded men in boots, carrying bundles; wondering boys and girls, chattering in strange Slav or Latin tongues; bewildered mothers, their heads wrapped in shawls, hard-handed women bent from work, carrying babies and still more bundles—you see them all come slowly down gangplains from European ships to stand a bit on the busy wharf and stare at Buenos Aires. Argentina needs these. She has one-third as much land as the United States; but only as many people as live in and about New York city. Or about one and one-third per square mile, as against 400 in the British Isles. Italians, English, Spanish, French, Germans, Swiss, American, all mingle, so cosmopolitan is the city that its great papers—La Nacion and La Prensa—must serve news from everywhere. Their circulation is enormous; their advertising huge. The quality, completeness and accuracy of what they print challenges the thought of every visiting journalist. Their absorbing Sunday rot gravures, their feature articles on sport, travel, international affairs, science, literature and art—many by world famous writers—astonish the newcomer, at first. Then he reflects; this is a great world city. It thinks like any other; and acts as Paris does, or Berlin, or New York. Modern but Exotic. Italian workmen with power drills tear up good pavements. New buildings rise higher and higher. Air students stunt at Palomar field, and Yankee free-lance flyers come peddling new planes. A man in fancy gaucho dress, as obsolete now as old time wild west cowboy gear, coils a live snake about his neck and hawks patent medicines. A communist tries to harangue a crowd, and police lead him amiably away. Children ride tame llamas in the parks. A weazened little man struggles through traffic with a huge basket of coconuts, and offers them to a world which seems to spurn coconuts. Around the great Diagonal of the financial center grim, towering banks suggest Wall Street. Subways, long suburban trains, screaming newsbys, 50,000 football fans jammed before a loudspeaker on Avenida de Mayo—you see this a city—greatest in South America. Its fog suggests San Francisco. Its flat expanse is like Chicago. The vast plains beyond, with endless leagues of corn, wheat and cattle, conjure up Kansas, or the Illinois prairies. And mules! Fat, with good harness, they compete with trucks. You see a team draw aside, to let a luxurious motor lorry pass hauling glistening race horses out to the track of the Tjaiuna-like Jockey club. An unusual organization this is. Its downtown club-house, gorgeous as a senate chamber, dominates all others. A member may ask you to hunt partridges at a great estancia on the pampas. For many interesting hours a train hauls you past queer big corncrishes shaped like tanks; wind mills; high-wheeled pampa wagons; endless riders in flat black hats, baggy breeches, short boots, flying ponchos, riding with short stirrups on clumsy saddles covered with sheep's wool. Leagues of wire fence stretch far as the eye can see, and artificial groves of imported trees dot the pamas. You stop at a lonely prairie station—for all the world like Kansas west of Dodge City—where you are to hunt. Partridge are plentiful; so are ostriches. Riding back to Buenos Aires you take the day coach, to hear cowmen talk. It is like riding, in old days, in the caboose of a cattle train from Texas up to Kansas City. Everybody talks herds, horses, fodder, calves, branding and market prices. Mention hunting. "Our boys never waste a cartridge on a partridge," says a cowman. "They use a horse-hair nose on the end of a pole—they just ride the bird down and loop that over his neck. And, anyway roasted armadillo is better than partridge—not so dry."

In the picture the sleeveless jacket so much appreciated by tennis enthusiasts is of cherry red velvetteen, tailored with perfect detail. The gored white skirt is of the new lightweight velvetteen which has become a sporting favorite. NEW STYLES WILL BE MORE AMERICAN Molded Silhouette of Past Winter to Carry Through. A distinct American influence will be seen in 1932 fashions and American designers are preparing for it. Prominent New York designers predict that the molded silhouette of the past winter will carry through the entire year with a number of changes. The waist must be "easy," says one designer, with just a suggestion of fullness, and the skirt will have all the fullness at the bottom, below the knees. There is a tendency to make all soft dresses for daytime wear longer, says another authority. Short sleeves, from one-quarter to three-quarter length, will be worn with a wide variety of trimming details. Printed crepes and chiffons are regarded as a necessity for our long, hot summers. Small and conventional patterns for day wear and larger and more elaborate patterns for evening will be the rule. Skirt lengths will be 12 or 13 inches from the ground. Evening things will be long. Sports clothes will be quite short, not more than 2 or 3 inches below the knee. Women Remain Constant Fashionable women always remain constant in their love of pearls. The fascination of these jewels has remained unchanged for many days of decaparas who paid around $400,000 for one of her famous earrings. One of the shahs of Persia actually gave $900,000 for a single pearl. Pearls today are as fashionable as they have ever been. Women who have not real pearls wear costume pearls which are considered a thing of beauty in themselves, and are no longer regarded as imitation jewelry. New prints exploit vivid coloring. Evening gowns with beaded details are featured. Smart simplicity is keynote for the new tailored suits. The diagonal closing of bodices is repeatedly employed. Pearl ornament is trimming of the moment on midseason millinery. Touches of Irish crochet lace abound on incoming spring frocks. Variation in Lines of Evening Dresses Noted An indication of a change in lines of evening dresses is found in the lessening fullness of skirts. Breadth at the hem is scatter. Though some dresses flare softly from the hips, flares are definitely modified. Then there are frilly notes. Large ties of self-material are used at the neck and waist for day and evening wear. Then there is the embroidered evening jacket. Augusta Bernard shows the standing velvet cheek and the self-twisted rope trim. Braided Wool Scarfs Smart for Sports Wear Scarfs made of three strands of wool or silk braided like an old-fashioned lassie's pigtail are a new novelty for sports wear. They are made of three harmonious colors and are worn tossed carefully about the shoulders. By CHERIE NICHOLAS Diagonal seaming is a distinguishing feature of the majority of frocks this season. The treatment applies to all sorts of materials and is especially effective in fashioning velvet. The charm of this diagonal sea seaming is that it molds the gown artfully to the figure, achieving an elasticity to the garment, no matter how tight-fitting, which allows freedom of movement of the body. A sapphire blue velvet evening gown, one of the most modish types of the dress, is draped with simple detail, the diagonal seaming being made a feature. BRUNETTES TO BE FASHION IN 1932 Baldness Threatened by Platinum Blond Craze. Nineteen-thirty-two will be a brunette year with black hair preferred, hairdressers predict. "The platinum blond crease, were it to continue for another year would create a race of bald women," one asserted. For those women who have dyed their chestnut or raven locks extremely blond there is only one sure way to avoid the telltale widening band of dark hair as the hair grows out. The hair must be bobbed quite short and a transformation of the desired color used until their own crowning glory, growing longer, edges out the last traces of its blond bleach. There is a decided swing backward to femininity in all the fashion forecasts for the new year and the hair styles must follow suit. The back hair will be longer, long enough to curl softly over the edge of the new hats. The new wave will have a continuity that makes the head attractive from any angle and may start at the side front and progress in a gently rising line around the head to the other side. FLASHES FROM PARIS Bi-color themes prevail throughout costume design. Detachable fur novelties are featured for spring. Openwork woolens resemble lace in their patterning. Glamorous fabrics distinguish evening frocks and wraps. Flattering brims is the message of advance mid-season hats. Silk jersey for the evening gown proves interesting, especially in white. ```markdown ``` Separate Fur Pieces Separate furs are back in fashion again and what a help they are in dressing up the plain suit or coat. One set consists of a little cap of leopard skin that ties at the throat and a tiny round muff. White Silk for Sports White silk sports dresses, of the type generally described as "tennis", promise to be highly successful in combination with bright-colored jackets or short coats of wool or silk. Brand New Note Enters You can now cut your cloth not only according to your coat, but according to your evening dress as well. Just when we are becoming jaded—sartorial speaking, of course—along comes something very new and different, evening frocks made of broadcloth. Of course the material used is very light weight and of a fine, smooth texture that drapes beautifully and has no bulk. The models are very interesting. The same designer responsible for this novelty gave us a forerunner of it earlier in the season in the form of pastel-colored broadcloth evening wraps. Well, fabrics for evening frocks have just about run the gamut now that cloth is included in the range. That Important "Young" Dress By EMMA LOU FETTA NEW YORK CITY—Are you graduating at the end of the fall semester or in June? Well, perhaps you are a mother and your daughter is. Or perhaps your younger sister is. Anyway, it doesn't matter, for sixteen to 36 year-olds can successfully wear this charming frock that I saw the moment it was finished at one of the big New York designer's. It is about the freshest and loveliest "young" dress I've seen in ages. The entire frock is made of durene embroidered bati tise, starched just the tiniest bit. That very new fashion of squaring off the shoulders is accomplished by The American W The American Woman Is Romantic I By EMMA LOU FETTA NEW YORK CITY—Here is an enchanting afternoon frock of durene embroidered batiste fashioned with great puffy sleeves and a very "young" neckline. It is slipper heel length and pure white with light green dots. If you live south of the Mason and Dixon line this dress will fit into your wardrobe rather soon now. Some of the rest of us will have to wait for garden party weather to overtake us. Incidentally, despite the growing urban character of the United States, interest in gardens and having parties in the popular every year. Every city dweller can afford a little spot in the country has a bit of garden. Those who are lucky enough to have flowers right at their year-round doorstep are more envious than you think by the "cliff dwellers" of our great cities.

The two main reasons why this frock is particularly shown next month in a big New York fashion exhibition is because it is made of an exceptionally beautiful durene embroidery, and because it achieves that most difficult fashion feat—unadorned simplicity. Cheap dress houses, you know, try to put on a pair of skirts and one should go. The skilled designers, like really great architects, know that beautiful, simple things are the hardest ones to achieve. oman Is Romantic laid to Americans by some of our foreign critics, but it should indeed seem to any unbiased observer that this country, too, has its intense love of the simplicity, of beauty, of natural things. We must possess, in times of depression talk, is a garden that will soon burst into blossom, a garden where one can ask good friends, and where they can come in clothes far more romantic than those that may be worn on the street. There should be no reason for a foreign critic to wonder what an American woman would do with the dress illustrated in the photograph. We may appear sleek, even a bit brittle-faced and energetic on the streets of this country, but give us women an opportunity to breathe real life on one right and left of us, and we can turn to romantic, thoroughly feminine clothes with speed born of innate love of this sort of thing.

Charmed With the Island's Eden- Like Fascination, Affairs With "Beach Boys" Have Been Many — Native White Hawaiian Student Also Writes. (Editor's Note: Dorothy Mackall. U. S. film star, who has been a frequent visitor in Hawaii, writing for the International News Service, con- tributed the startling story which follows, on the island of Hawaiian situation.) Hollywood, Cal., Jan. 21, '32.— K had to come! The "beach boys"—really full-grown Kanakas—that is to say, pure-blooded Hawaiians—have had many romances with rich American women who have gone to the Islands as tourists and have been enthralled with its Eden-like fascination. These "affairs" have been invited by this type of women. The "beach boys" have been spoiled by so many American women paying attention to the contrast, the extremely deferential when made to realize their inferiority. The killing of Kahawaih is deplorable. It is a tribute to the real Hawaiian people that none of the men accused of attacking Mrs. Massie was a Kanaka. The five men were mixed breed. And let me say right now that the mixed element now on the island of Oahu is living dynamic. It is a racial mixture of Japanese, bantu, Chinese, Polynesian, Whale. We are spect of these people when they see Kanakas openly receiving the attention of American women? Some American women behave in a manner little short of disgraceful on the beach at Walkikai, wearing abbreviated bathing suits and permitting the "beach boys" to apply coconut oil so they may get a good tan. It's a shame they shamelessly happen for the islands are so beautiful and the true Hawaiians and those who have intermarried with white people are such a happy lot. Dorothy Mackail. What a White Native Says Chicago, Ill.—A student at Northwestern university here, R. T. West, a native of Hawaii, last week challenged the Chicago Tribune, foremost in the "proposed expedition" against Hawaii, in these words: "I am a white boy, was born and reared in Hawaii, and am now attending the Northwestern university medical school. I know conditions in Hawaii and for this reason nothing has made me more disgusted than to read the erroneous statements concerning Hawaii which have been published in the Tribune during the last three or four weeks. "There isn't any race conflict in Hawaii; in fact, Hawaii prides itself on having no race conflicts, with a population of about 350,000 comprised of practically every race on the face of the earth. The source of all this trouble now brewing in Hawaii, which is not half as bad as it is painted, is the American sailor. The female population of Honolulu (white, oriental and Hawaiian) is more afraid of the uniform of an American sailor coming down a day before it is all of a whiteness. Why is it that only the wives of service men have been attacked, and not the thousands of white girls and women who live in Honolulu? It is because the service men refuse to leave the Honolulu girls alone." R. T. West. Spring's Almost Here By EMMA LOU FETTA NEW YORK CITY—Spring, they tell me, is just around the block, although in New York, for most of the past two months, we've had one March day after another. Unfortunately the weather bureau has not yet reached the point where the makers of fashions, who always have to work several months in advance to effect distribution to the far corners of the country in time for the beginning of each new calendar season. As a result, the calendar has to be their guide. Not the weather. So! Here we have one of the smartest new spring suits with novel features of fashion importance. It has that effective "honeycomb" look that is so good and the wool is so soft. The wool have when combined in a material. The flannel sweater blouse is long of sleeve—actually longer than the jacket sleeves. It is short, too, giving that new double-high waist of Empire influence. No, it's not that thick, still, and how the vests buttons up right under the chin—another top note in fashion.
