WHITE FAILS TO WELCOME DELEGATES AND VISITORS FROM MANY PARTS OF THE COUNTRY AND ABROAD. Bishop Parks Opens the Conference and Bishop Vernon Preaches—Mayor Ray T. Miller Delivers Welcomes Address—Two Sessions Daily With Public Meetings at Night. Late last week and Sunday, hundreds of delegates and thousands of visitors to the twenty-ninth quadrennial General Conference of the great A. M. E. Church arrived in large numbers for its two-week sessions in Woodland Center, E. 46th St. and Woodland Ave., totaling about 1,500 delegates and alternates, and 5,000 visitors. Many more have come to the city since. Bishop H. B. Parks president of the bishops' council, presided at the opening communion session, Monday morning, the sermon for which was preached by Bishop W. T. Vernon. Bishop Parks was also assisted by Bishop David Rardon, Fountain Brooks and James, Bishop Vernon based his opening sermon "Isaiah's Redeeming Vision," and compared the needs of the "drifting, helpless world of today" with those existing during the perilous times of Isaiah. "The Tom Paines, the Voltaites, the agnostics, the free thinkers and other kindred spirits, who have set the stage, have brewed the proper psychology for the ruin of the world. Not law, but the gangster rules, and God is our only way," Bishop Vernon said. He also said that wise men facing moral bankruptcy throughout the world have realized this and, as a result, the world is already changing for the better. In the afternoon, the conference was organized and Bishop W. Sampson Brooks made the quadrennial address. Mayor Ray T. Miller made a welcome address for the city, at the first public meeting, Monday night. In these distress and great need the churches play an important part in the stability of our cities, a condition of this kind is healthful for the healthful for your people. I hope all your deliberations are successful because they will be made for God and country," he said. Disappointment was clearly and generally evident when it was announced that Gov. Geo. White was not present to welcome the delegates, as advertised. Bishop John A. Gregg of Kansas City, who was scheduled to respond to the governor's address, said: "We naturally expected when we came to Ohio that the governor, who is governor of all the people, would be here to welcome us, even if he is a Democrat. It is probably true that some your votes helped to elect him. Newlyeless, we have reasons for a kindly disposition and this great state. Throughout history, our has been kindly disposed toward our people and their advance." Other speakers were Rev. H. H. Bumy of Pittsburgh, Rev. H. C. Thomas of Washington, D. C.; Judge Samuel H. Silbert and Rev. D. O. Walker. St. James' choir sang. Business sessions, Tuesday, centered around a resolution to admit laymen to membership in the episcopal committee. Bishop Parks, president board of missions, presided and ruled that the resolution was legislative and subject to the committee on revision. This compells its reading to the conference on three consoles before consideration. An episcopal committee, 9 of theisters, the most important one of the conference, was selected to consider the resolution. It also has the power of examining the bishops and assigning them to their districts. A group of Chicagouans, calling themselves the "common sense committee," issued printed dodgers that were passed among the delegates, urging the general conference to elect no more bishops at this time, and saying that "each A. M. E. chicagouans with churches with 41,935 members over which preside, while each M. E. bishop (white) 242 churches with 194,323 members." Other suggestions were that it be against church law for a bishop to receive a collection from a congregation or a purse from a minister, that salaries be reduced, that ministers be forced to resign church-offices on accepting outside offices, and that there be no campaigning for offices. All of which are excellent suggestions. Tuesday evening, the open-to-the-public or mass being was devoted to a discussion of the Chicago missionary work in Africa, South America and the West Indies, Rev. E. H. Cotton and the West Secretary,递交 of foreign missionaries one of the speakers, told of the work of the 400 native missionaries in Africa. He said: "All our missionary enterprises are carried on by na- tives. This does not mean, however, that the standard of work is below that of other missionary agencies. Of more than 400 missionaries and helpers in the field, many have been trained in America in our educational institutions. By this system, African Methodism has been spread more rapidly than would have been possible by sending missionaries from America. Wilberforce Institute in South Africa is missionary and has a native African principal. In Liberia we have one conference and one college at Monrovia. In Sierra Leone, West Africa, we have a girls' industrial school and a boys' seminary. In the last four years we raised for foreign work $274,000." Other speakers included Hastings Kamuza Banda of Nyasaland, central Africa; Prof. F. Herman Gow, principal of Wilberforce Institute, South Africa; Bishop G. B. Young, presiding bishop of South Africa; Jefferson S. Coague of Washington, D. C. recorder of deeds; and Rev. James Endioff, secretary of the board of the United Church of Canada, Dr. Endioff, who recently completed a 60,000-mile tour, discussed conditions in missionary fields around the world. Spirituals were sung during the evening by a group of students of the A. M. E. Girls' Industrial School of Sierra Leone, West Africa. At Wednesday morning's business session, the episcopal address, which comes from the Bishop W. Sampson Brooks of Texas. Reports of departments and bills followed. Since this is the first time Layman have been represented with clergy in the general conference, legislation is being hotly contested. See next week's issue of The Gazette for further report of the conference's doings. VOTE FOR JACK TOMSON For the Republican Nomination for Sheriff—April 14—was Christy Nernsons. One of the most interesting personalities in the primary contest, May 10, '32, is that of J. G. Tomson. Republican candidate for the nomination for sheriff. Mr. Tomson was a candidate for sheriff in 1928, and was a strong supporter of the newspapers, Citizens League, and like organizations, Mr. Tomson, through his many friends, his record as a public official and his pleasing personality, received 154, 977 votes. He believes he received those votes because the people have confidence in his honesty, integrity, loyalty to his aspirations, and a sincere loyalty that will be a credit to the sheriff's office. He stands for NOMINATE J. H. H. Jack Tomson. strict enforcement of the law, prompt and efficient service in all matters pertaining to the office, purchase of food and supplies to be made through a complement purchasing agent after competitive bidding, and believes by so doing, a sizable saving can be made to the taxpayers of the county. Mr. Tomson was born in Parma, 53 years ago, resides at 17204 Greenwood degree Ave. He is a thirty-second degree Mason, a member of the Elks, Odd Fellows, Past-Chancellor of the K. P.'s, past Dictator of the Loyal Order of Moose, and past President of the Western Reserve Republican club. He naturally has a wide acquaintance throughout the city and county. His nomination will assure the Republican party a strong and GILBERT BETTMAN. Ohio's Attorney General, a Candidate for the Republican Nomination for U. S. Senator—Wiped Out a Color-Line, Years Ago. Cincinnati, O., April 18, 1932. Mr. Robert B. Barcus, Attorney General's Office, Columbia, Mo. My Dear Barcus:—I thought, perhaps, that a letter from me might be of some assistance to Attorney General Bettman in his candidacy for U. S. Senator. I have known Gilbert Bettman for over twenty years as an outstanding lawyer in Hamilton County, as vice mayor, and as Attorney General of Ohio, to think he possessed the资质 of a senator. He would be a worthy successor to John Sherman, Joseph Benson Foraker and Mark Hanna. Aside from that I intend to support Mr. Bettman for one thing which he did GILBERT BETTMAN when he was dean of the Y. M. C. A. law school. Prior to his term as dean of the Cincinnati law school, colored students were not permitted to matriculate. I was refused admittance as a student in that school because I was a colored man. A young man by the name of Roberts applied for admission during Mr. Bettman's term and there was some objection, which Mr. Bettman only, when Mr. Bettman heard of it he immediately said that if that was the only objection, Mr. Roberts would be admitted to that school, and he was. Since then we have had four or five colored men to matriculate and only last year Atty. Harry S. Williams graduated from the school and is making good in Cincinnati at the present time. Mr. Bettman does skin, but measures him by his personal worth and honorable citizenship. I hope the members of our group can be made to see this and on May 10, '32, vote for Gilbert Bettman. Hoping that Mr. Bettman will be nominated and elected, I am, Very truly yours, (Hon.) A. Lee Beaty, Former Member, Ohio Legislature.—Adv.

Nixon, Republican candidate for nomination to the office of Secretary of State, after thirty-five years of active service in the cause of Republicanism has for the first time in his active career asked the voters of his party for their support. In direct contrast to this, it seems that other candidates are holding lucrative political positions with several years to run and have been office-candidates. In their present positions, Mr. Nixon has worked his way up the political ladder from County Committeeman to State Chairman, serving his party without asking reward. In other words, Mr. Nixon has never served his party for gain, but has always had the real party interest at heart. He DR. JOSEPH W.

Perry B. Jackson, former member of the Ohio Legislature from this county, in an address, Monday evening, Apr. 11, '32, voiced a timely warning to all of our people of the state of Ohio when he called attention to the Ku Klux Klan's announced program for State Assembly legislation, next winter, most of which is directed against the rights of our people of this state. For many years, all the representation in the State Assembly our people have had has come from this (Cuyahoga) and Hamilton (Cincinnati) counties. Our better and practically only chance for representation in the Ohio Legislature, next winter, rests in this county. Therefore, it is here that our voters must concentrate an effort above the ordinary to secure the nomination of at least one member of the race at the Republican primaries, next month, May 10, 1932. There are four local Afro-American candidates for nominations as state representative and at least one of them must be nominated, May 10. The Ku Klux Klan's proposed legislation, against the vital interests of our people of Ohio, includes bills for separate or "jimcrow" schools and against inter-marriage, both of which as laws would set us back at least a quarter of a century and be most harmful indeed. Particularly vicious would be the law against inter-marriage because, like all other state laws of the kind throughout the country (in border and southern states), it places our girls and women at the mercy of white brutes who take advantage of them in one way and another, and leaves them without any protection whatever under the law. Therefore, the need of Afro-American representatives in the next State Assembly is imperative. The present outlook is that if we fail to elect at least one here in Cuyahoga county, we will be without such representation in the legislature which convenes in January of next year. LEGISLATORS NEEDED. The complaints against the management of various state institutions, made by the Ohio N. A. A. C. P. conference, recently in session at the state capital, Columbus, are undoubtedly well founded and is an additional reason why our people of Ohio must be represented in The State Assembly which convenes in January next. Practically all of the discrimination in the various state institutions has grown up in the fifteen or twenty years, particularly during the greatest activity of the Ohio Ku Klux Klan, in the last ten years. We need an able, aggressive and fearless representative in the next legislature not only to combat the proposed program of the Ohio Ku Klux Klan but also to lead a well-organized effort to wipe from all state institutions the color-lines of various kinds complained of in the state N. A. A. C. P. statement, published elsewhere in this paper. Our people of Hamilton, Clarke, Greene, Franklin, Mahoning and Cuyahoga counties should each have at least one Afro-American member of the next State Assembly. In each one of these counties they are strong enough to secure what they need, along this line, if they will only work together as they should. SHOULD WATCH ITS STEP. The Republican party should "watch its step," for if it goes to the defense of such individuals as ex-U. S. Senator "Tom-Tom" Heflin of Alabama, or any of his southern Democratic kidney, it will be doing more than it does for us Republicans. The tragedy of the whole Heflin-Bankhead contest was that every Republican U. S. Senator should have voted to oust the Democrat, Bankhead, as well as deny Heflin the seat in the Senate Bankhead occupies. Also to order the state of Alabama to hold another election for U. S. Senator and permit EVERY citizen of the state to vote without fear or intimidation. Now is the time for the Republican party to begin to correct the wrongs done to disfranchise Republican voters (colored and white) of Alabama and other politically rotten southern states. The Senate should have denied both of these men a place in their midst until Alabama purges itself from its political thievery, brow-beating and ballot-box stuffing. Senators Vare of Pennsylvania and Smith of Illinois were denied seats because of illegal (monetary) practices but neither Vare nor Smith were guilty of as flagrant violation of the Constitutional rights of voters in their states as were Heflin and Bankhead of Alabama. Atty. Geo. C. Hansen of Lakewood is the only candidate for a Republican nomination for State Senator in the west end of the county and ought to be nominated for that reason and others, two of which are he has been an active Republican for many years and is thorny competent from every viewpoint as all who know him will readily testify. Then, too, that Republican section of the county ought to be represented in the upper branch of the State Assembly. Therefore, we ask our voters to support Mr. Hansen's candidacy when they go to the polls to vote on Tuesday next. His friendship for the race cannot be questioned. We need such men as Mr. Hansen in the State Assembly, this winter, to help combat the program of the malicious Ku Klux Klan and to assist in eradicating the color lines that have grown up in recent years in a number of the public institutions of this state. We want our voters throut the state to cast their ballots for Arthur A. Nixon of Dayton for secretary of state. We have known Mr. Nixon for many years as a sterling friend of the race. He has the ability and the experience in public matters to make Ohio one of the best officials it has ever had. Candidates who ask your support, thru the columns of The Gazette, should have it because we do not publish notices or advertisements of candidates who are unfriendly to our people. Please remember that! This has been our rule for many years and will not be deviated from. In One Family for More Than One-Hundred Years.

Here he obtained employment in a machine shop at $2 a day and attended night school. While finishing his trade, he passed an examination for city fireman, and had capacity for years. While this employed, he studied law at the fire-station under preceptors from Western Reserve University.

He is a member of the Masonic Order, Cleveland Bar Association, Tippecanee and Western Reserve Republican clubs. From the foregoing the reader will gain sufficient knowledge of Atty. Charles A. Spielman's early years and his experiences with the firemen to realize at once that he will make an ideal candidate for membership in the Ohio Legislature. All his life he has been close to the masses of the people and therefore is familiar with their needs and desires. Such a person makes the best kind of a representative in a legislative body of any kind. There are many people who commend him in the strongest possible manner to the favorable consideration of all.

Derbyshire Road, Cleveland Heights, is well and favorably known throughout the entire county, and has always taken a keen and active interest in civic and 2010 political affairs. He is one of the well-known lawyers of Cleveland, having practiced law for almost 18 years and has earned the respect and esteem of both the bench and the bar.

In the interests of good government, we can heartily recommend the candidacy of Mr. Copland and feel confident that his nomination at the primaries and election in the fall will lend strength to the Cuyahoga delegation in the state legislature and depend upon to help to the limit of his ability to beat down the State Ku Klux Klan's announced vicious, legislative program.

WHILE scientists are penetrating the black depths of caves in Texas to trace the lives of wing the black depts of caves in Texas to trace the lives of their early occupants—among America's oldest inhabitants—the Lone Star state swiftly marches in the opposite direction toward modern progress. Texas is so big! So big that some one said the people of El Paso jeer at those of Galveston as being effete easterners. In terms of people, area, animals, crops, and natural wealth she is so big and her regional interests are so diverse that she has outgrown her very constitution, as a boy outgrows his pants. Laws good for east Texas may be bad for west Texas. States policies agreeable to the natives on the lower Rio Grande may cause grief and pain to those hundreds of miles away in the vast Pan handle. Merely to confound the newcomer, the native himself takes delight in mentioning casually that his state could swallow up more than 213 Rhode Islands and have a large area left over and that it is farther from El Paso to Beaumont than it is from New York to Chicago. Her governor rules more territory than any king or premier of Europe has in the continental Limits of his country, Russia alone excepted. Were Texas as densely settled as Massachusetts, she'd have more than 131,000,000 people. In Texas more native Americans, starting only with hard hands, strong wills, and great energy, have built up a vast, rich and powerful commonwealth. The human tide to Texas, so far, has been steady, but never in any sense a great migration. When Stephen F. Austin founded his famous colony on the banks of the Brazos, a little more than 100 years ago, the Texas population, including Mexicans and Indians, was probably not more than 8,000 or 10,000. In the next quarter of a century the state had only 100,000 white inhabitants and 35,000 slaves. Not till railways began to spread, in the seventies, was its growth at all rapid. In the last 20 years it has gained more than 2,000,000. From the Middle Western states, since 1920, more than 100,000 people have come each year to settle in Texas. Of these immigrants, 86 per cent have settled in towns and cities. The remaining 14 per cent, going to the country, have put close to 2,000,000 acres of new land into crops. Since the end of the World war, it is estimated that propably 600,000 people have settled on new farms in the vast Panhandle region. Less Than Half Cultivated. The enormous agricultural potential of Texas is shown by the fact that, although less than half of her arable land has been put under cultivation, yet in a good year she produces a billion-dollar crop. More than a billion dollars' worth of oil has been produced in Texas in five years and the state probably has more lignite, or brown coal, than the whole famous Ruhr region of Germany. Her deposits run into billions of tons. No one knows how much. Her industrial population, though long of minor consequence, is now increasing fast. With her abundant oil, gas lignite, iron ore, and other minerals, the resulting gradual increase of trade and industry is bound to bring substantial growth to certain Texas cities. On the maps of the United States used by the general staff at Washing-on certain little flags are flying. They indicate the strategic cities of America, such as New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and San Antonio, Texas. Besides its place on the map, among the things which give a city strategic importance are safe and adequate food and fuel, in easy reach, and ample transport. In these respects San Antonio, as well as Houston and Dallas, is well supplied. To a singular degree, east Texas, with her oil, lignite, and other minerals, her lumber, her excellent means of transport, and her easy access to vast meat, grain and natural gas supplies, is a strategic may spot whereon it is easy to visualize a great southwestern city. Already Houston is conspicuous. It is the greatest spot-cotton market in the world. On its ship canal it has huge storage for export oil and grain—grain sent from Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska for Liverpool and Europe. Fed by 17 railways and served by numerous steamship and tanker lines, it trades with the world. Its destiny is one of large possibilities. Bigger and Better Cattle. In all the kaleidoscopic industrial transitions that are sweeping so much of our South and West, nothing has changed more completely than the Texas cattle ranches. Today the original high-speed Texas longhorn, that streak of hoofs, horns and yellow hide that used to run with the deer and wild mustangs, is practically extinct. Yet, in his time, he was the basis of vast fortunes. With the banished longhorn there also passed from this wild-cattle arena most of those rollicking, hard-riding, quick-shooting heroes whose names still live in the old cowboy ballads. When barbed wire was invented, romance and adventure died—on the Texas plains. Freedom was no more. As to Texas, the climatic, geographic, floral fact remains that she is still the biggest natural cow pasture in the United States. At this very minute millions of bulky bovines are quietly feeding and fattening inside the wire fences of Texas. Bigger and better meat-bearing animals—that is the modern Texas cowman's slogan. Gradually building up the herds—no yearly models but constantly improved. To get a husky, fever-resistant beast for the low coast lands, the canny Texans have crossed their native cattle with the great humpbacked Brahmans of India. In good years the Fort Worth market alone will receive more than 1,000,000 cattle, as well as, perhaps, 1,250,000 calves, sheep, and hogs. Measured in dollars and cents, Texas cotton is above cattle. Cotton, in Texas, is above everything. But nothing is above cattle in the sentiments and memories of Texas. To keep alive and spread the fame of Texas cow kingdoms, 32 historic cattle brands have been carved on the walls of Garrison hall. newest building on the campuses of the state university When Cabeza de Vaca crossed Texas in 1535 the Indians gave him garments of cotton. From the few plants of those early days there has developed a production of astounding magnitude. At times Texas' crop has amounted to more than 40 per cent of all cotton grown in the United States. In the record year, 1926, it reached the amazing total of 5,620,821 500-pound bales. Taking a leaf from the book of North Carolina, Texas is beginning to build up her most obvious industry, the cotton mill. She enjoys three of the most vital factors for their profitable operation: adequate labor, cotton "at the gate of the cotton patch," and fuel for power. Developing Its Resources. Like North Carolina, also, Texas is setting about methodically to make the most of all her natural gifts. The newly formed Society for the Scientific Development of Texas' Natural Resources is just what its name implies. Vast as many resources of Texas are known to be, further surveys must yet be made to determine the best local industrial use of the many mineral deposits which exist. Already the annual mineral production, exclusive of oil, is valued at $70,000,000. Take potash. A thorough survey of the Texas deposits may reveal enough of these salts to make the United States forever independent of the present French-German potash monopoly. Texas produces $50,000,000 of net surplus wealth each year. It is the aim of the Scientific society, by publishing freely the results of its surveys, to aid this home capital in the development of mining and industry. Texas, never a territory, entered the Union on her own terms. Shrewdly, she kept title to her own public lands. Half this vast domain she gave to her schools. Her university received more than two million acres. Oil found on these lands has made the University of Texas very rich. Hosts of Americans have seen Texas from the windows of transcontinental trains. To such train riders it seems largely a flat, dry, almost treeless country. That's the fault of men who located the railroads. Parts of Texas, like the great barrances of the Panhandle, or the Santa Helena gorge in Brewster county, are wild and picturesque. Cross-country train tripners killing time at bridge between Kansas City and Los Angeles, see nothing of these rougher, wild regions. Likewise, by hundreds of miles, they miss the verdant, fruitful, subtropic Gulf coast, with its palms and beaches, its pleasure resorts, and its busy, growing tourist traffic. From all over the Middle West increasing numbers of visitors go now each winter to Galveston, Corpus Christi, and other Gulf towns. Farther south and along the Rio Grande, between Laredo and Brownsville, has developed rapidly a vegetable and citrus-growing region of wealth and importance.

Our Boys Equal and Surpass World Records. Philadelphia, Pa.—A long-standing carnival record in the high jump was tied, last week Friday here at Franklin field stadium, when Howard Spencer, star of Geneva college, this state, leaped 6 feet 5½ inches. This equaled the standard set in 1917 by Larson of Brigham Young university. He beat John Barth of Case, Cleveland 5½ inches. George Williams from Hampton Institute, hurled the javelin 205 feet 2½ inches to better his own carnival mark of last year, 197 feet 1½ inches. The 400-meter hurdle record was topped by Eugene Beatty, star from Michigan Normal, after withstanding the attacks of timber-toppers for eight years. Beatty, last week Friday, leading all the way, skimmed the barriers in 53.3 seconds to surpass the American collegiate and carnival mark of 54.4 seconds made in 1929 by Ivan Riley of Kansas State. William Willett deCafre and Beatty are sure credited with the race and undoubtedly have a future in athletics that is most encouraging indeed to all concerned.

WONDERFUL CAREER Of David S. Ingalls, a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor David S. Ingalls, candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor of Ohio at the primaries, Tuesday, started his career by putting on the khaki shirt of the volunteers in the World War. He worked his way up, becoming the only American ace in the navy aviation corps. Following the war he graduated from the Harvard Law school, began at the bottom of law practise in Cleveland, with Squire, Sanders & Dempsey, and after six years there, was elected to the Ohio Legislature. A ceilent work in the Assembly brought him reelection. During his second term, his ability won him national recognition and he was appointed Assistant Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security he has held for three years. In that time he saved the government twenty-three million dollars by completing the five year naval aviation program in four years. Mr. Ingalls inherited his thrifty habits and keen business judgment from English ancestors. 2000 More SUITS AND TOPCOATS Save Fag Featuring These Colors: GRAYS! TANS! BLUES!

Brown, now running for the Republican nomination for Governor of Ohio, is a man who makes a strong appeal for the support of our voters. Like most of us, he has had to make his way by his own efforts, and his background gives him a sympathy for the struggles of others and a deep understanding of the problems of the common man. During his ten years' service in the State House, Mr. Brown has shown, more than any other state official, a fine appreciation for the work of his department. His department in Columbus employs eleven members of the race, among whom is a young lady who holds the distinction of being our only stenographer among the many girls doing stenographic work in the State House. Until he obtained his present responsible position in the state department at Wilberforce, Business Manager Jenkins, a man of unusual ability and talent, served in Mr. Brown's office as statistician, one of the most responsible jobs in the department. Mr. Brown's experience in the public service gives him the opportunity to act in the office he seeks. Not often do the people have the opportunity of electing a man with ten years' training in the very problems that will be his to solve as Governor.
