When local patrolmen announced in police court, recently, that Dr. L. Rodgers was "a pick-up man," they said what the have failed to prove, it seems. Why hasn't the doctor made them retract or correct the statement, if it was not true? The Rounder and others have been waiting to see this done and it ought to be, too. A London cable says that at a private dinner party, the other evening, Andy Mellon wore short silk pants out of respect to Queen Mary, who was present. Dyou suppose he wore a dress by John W. Raper in The Cleveland Press. The Rounder wonders what, if anything Queen Mary wore "out of respect" to Andy? Would Mellon tell—even if he knew? I wonder. The W. C. T. U. of New Orleans has written to President Hoover protesting that Andy Mellon drinks whisky and soda on public occasions (in London, England). Well, all we know is that if we had to wear silk panties on public occasions we'd feel that we had to have at least half a dozen good shots of Scotch first. (To heck with the soda.)—Raper in The Press. When the Forte case was pending in criminal court, last week Tuesday, Atty, Chester K, Gillespie, his counsel at that time, made this declaration in arguing a motion for a new trial: "I know, and it is common gossip that jobs are being sold by Democrats to people for financial consideration. Judge Walther and Assistant County Prosecutor Hart at a hearing of Gillespie, the judges' payments were made. The latter answered: "Democratic leaders." Thereupon, the judge ordered Mr. Hart to bring the jobs scandal charges before the grand jury on Monday of this week. The latter then asked that Gillespie be put under oath before making any further statements and Gillespie "ducked" pronto, saying: "I want to retract that statement. The judge, the deputy, denied he had any involvement anyhow and subpoenaes were served on Forte and Gillespie before they left the court house. "A MOUTHFUL." Atty. David Grant of St. Louis. Mo. in meeting with the team in that city, recently, and "I am not fooled by the Democratic party. It is the party of Ben. Tillman, Vardeman, Blease, Tom-Tom Helfin, S. U. Senator Huey Long. It is the party of disfranchisement, "jim-crow" cars, segregation, etc., in the South for you and me. Oh, no, I am not fooled by it. Neither am I fooled by the Republican party. What Democratic leaders have said against you, Republican leaders have done against you. Look at Hoover's deal with the South's refusal to appoint "Negroes" to public office; his nomination of "Yellowdog" Parker for the U. S. Supreme Court. Look at the War department's "jim-crowing" of colored Gold Star mothers; the Republican party's general ignoring issues like lynching, disfranchisement and the great suffering of "Negroes from unemployment and other ills of the depression. No, neither party has me fooled. Neither one of them loves me and I know it. Neither one of them loves you and it's high time you knew it. Oh, no, neither party has me fooled. Both of them want office but neither of them wants you. They are like everything else owned and controlled by white men. They want your money, but they don't want you." The ROUNDER PAIR CALLED IN BRIBERY PROBE Convicted Ex-City Employee Names Two "Democratic Friends" As Accomplices—Atty, Gillespie pic "Ducked!" A lawyer and an employee of the city garbage collection department, named, last week Tuesday, by Ormond Forte, convicted former city employee, as "Democratic friends" to whom he was planning to give the bribe money he received from David Thurman to save Thurman's job, were called in for questioning by assistant prosecutor James P. Forte, former chief officer in the garbage collection department, was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the Ohio penitentiary, last week Tuesday, by Common Pleas Judge F. P. Walther, who found him guilty of soliciting and accepting a $25 bribe from Thurman. Judge Walther said, as he left the court room, that one of the two men mentioned by Forte, as the friends to whom he had intended to give the bribe money, said, "I thought for Thurman," came up to him in the corridors and denounced Forte and his statement. "I've ordered Forte held here for a while until we get to the bottom of the thing." Hart said, last week Tuesday. "I took the matter up with the prosecutor (County Prosecutor P. L. Lieghley) and he has ordered a thorough investigation. I know he whelts these men, cused are Democrats or Republicans—that makes no difference," Hart added. Forte's motion for a new trial was over-rules, late last week, the defendant's new attorney, Selmo C. Glenn, excepting. His bail-bond was continued in effect until June 26, Glenn serving notice of his intention to file in the court of appeals. Monday morning, as announced, Judge Walther went before the grand jury to investigate the litigation, with return of an indictment, if the facts warrant, into charges of job-selling by Democratic leaders. And in event an indictment is not justified, the judge told the grand jury he would require a full and complete report of what it "had done and what its investigation disclosed." The charge, made in open court by Atty. Chester K. Gillespie and withdrawn in the next breath by him, as well as a statement made by him, was given privately by him to Judge Walther, naming "two Democratic friends" as the men to whom he was to pay the $25 (he accepted) to save a city truck-driver's job, were told the grand jury by Judge Walther. Monday morning. The jury's investigation was launched later with the testimony of the judge, that of Gillespie, his client (at the time) Forte, and the two Democratic judges, the two other a city garbage-plant employee to whom Forte said he was to have paid the $25. Assistant County Prosecutor Emerich B. Freed is handling this phase of the Forte case before the grand jury. DOINGS OF THE BACE.

Signs Contract; Outpoints Feldman. New York City.—Kid Chocolate junior lightweight champion, and his manager, Luis Guterrierz, also of Cuba, have signed a new contract to last five years. The present contract expires in less than two months. The Kid opened his campaign for a shot at Tony Canzoner's title, June 1, by easily outpointing Lew Feldman (white) of New York and putting him back at the Queensboro stadium.

Los Angeles, Calif.—Young Jack Thompson easily won the decision from Leonard Bennett (white), of Seattle, in their six-round main event here, last week. He immediately announced his retirement from the ring after 14 consecutive years of battling, during which he engaged in 327 fights. Jack won the welterweight crown from Jackie Fields, then lost it to Tommy Freeman of Cleveland. In a return bout Thompson regained his championship, but later lost it to Lou Brouillard. Fields then defeated Brouillard. Jack, who is thrifty, is well-fixed, and says the fight game holds nothing in the future for him, and announces that he will devote his time to his property affairs here in Los Angeles. Carnerra's Victor Defecated Schmeling. Recently when Champion Max Schmeling was asked about his defeat, seven years ago, by Larry Gains of Toronto, Afro-Canadian champion heavyweight of the British Empire, who decisively defeated, in a ten-man contest, the giant pugilist, in London, Eng, last week, the 60 pounds lighter than Primo, Max said: "I was just getting started as a boxer when I boxed Gains in Cologne. I was only a novice and Gains was not so hot then himself. I was sick that night, but my manager and I needed the money. The doctor consented to me box. In the third round I got a sick box. The man had hit even one hard punch, that he had to fight my corner. The referee stopped the fight, and it went to Gains as a technical knockout. But I was not once on the floor, nor was I cut up or hurt by any punch. After the fight I had a fever of 104 and I was in bed for some time. But Gains had nothing to do with it, and he'll tell you so himself if you ever see him and ask him about it. I'll box Gains in London, next September, and then we'll but which one of us is the better man. But I big shot over there now. If he and I draw 71,000 people and $150,000 he and I ought to mean a big gate." Manager Jacobs was asked if he would take Schmeling to London to box Gains, next September. "Why not?" said the manager. "If nothing happens to Gains (or Max) in the meantime it ought to be a big attraction. Apparently, Jacobs is not considering the possibility of a Sharkey victor, June 21. In fact, nobody at Max's camp, even when not speaking for publication, will admit Sharkey has a chance.

SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1932 Our college and high school athletes have been breaking so many records and winning so many championships, this spring, that they have undoubtedly established another and a new record, the best they have ever made in any one year. It is really remarkable. --- The National Equal Rights League, headquarters in Boston, Mass., calls for the annual observance, everywhere, of June 17 as "Peter Salem Day," and our people generally should respond. If there are any who do not know who Crispus Attucks, Peter Salem and Salem Poor were, go to your public library and get Geo. W. Williams" "History of the Negro Race" and read it carefully. This invaluable publication should be in every one of our homes, especially where there are young folk. WHERE THE I. L. D. IS WRONG In a "release," under date June 4, '32, from headquarters in New York City, the International Labor Defense braggs about "forcing" the U. S. supreme court to grant a review of the Scottsboro, Ala., boy-victims' case. This is not true and a very unwise statement, to say the least. Someone in authority at headquarters should put a muzzle on some member in its publicity department, and promptly, too. There is no earthly sense in erecting additional barriers, because there have been and will be a plenty of them before the end of the chapter (case). There is no power on earth that can force the U. S. supreme court to do anything. The I. L. D. has done some good work and is still doing some, for our workers and we appreciate it. Bragging, waving the "big stick" and attempting to wield "the bludgeon" are the greatest hindrances to the advancement of the I. L. D.'s progress in this country. PAROLE FORTE. TOO. --- An employee (white), convicted of a $200 bribery, recently, after many years in the service of the city, was paroled! Since, similar action was taken in another case of a like nature. In the face of the outcome of these two, why not parole Ormond Forte, too, if he is not successful in the court of appeals? There should not be one kind of "justice" in bribery cases of whites and another in the cases of (Fleming and Forte) Afro-Americans. Especially is this true in view of the fact that Forte has a large family, a wife, five children and an aged mother dependent upon him. WHITE WOMEN AND RACCOONS "Rocco" is a very pretty raccoon of the natural-science room at Moreland school, Shaker Heights, adjacent to this city, that built up such a fine reputation that ladies (white) would kiss him. A lady science-teacher there was perhaps fondest of "Rocco," who it seems was so often kissed by white ladies that he got use to it, and, we presume, rather liked it. Dorothy Mackail, the well-known film actress and star, who often visited in the Hawaiian Islands, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, southwest of Hollywood and San Francisco, some months ago said that society women of this country, white of course, "had many affairs with the Hawaiian beach boys," many of whom are fine-looking men. This undoubtedly resulted from too close contact, she said, the beach boys covering them with oil while they were stretched out on the beach in the sun, attired only in their very brief bathing suits, courting a rich tan all love to exhibit on their return home from their outing in the beautiful Hawaiian Islands. This oil-coating, extended to various parts of their anatomy, and was often done during "the twilight of eye," and possibly later. This sort of thing undoubtedly contributed largely to the now notorious Massie-Kahahawai manslaughter case, as that handsome native, it is now disclosed, was Mrs. Massie's swimming teacher if not her beach boy. The Hawaiians are as a rule fine looking brown-skins; not raccoons, of course. It would not be near as difficult for American society ladies in Hawaii, or even in this country, to kiss a Hawaiian or Afro-American brown-skin (or one with a lighter complexion; and we have all grades from white to black) as it would be to kiss "Rocco", the raccoon referred to earlier in this article, and not merely because "Rocco" represents the lower order of animals while the American society ladies (white), like the rest of us, represent the higher order of animals. This fact undoubtedly accounts for the large number of society ladies, and others (white), of the south and north of this country who are not only willing to do habitually kiss raccoons, pet monkeys and others of the lower order of animals as well as large numbers of brown-skins and others (of different shades of complexion) of the higher order of animals. There are thousands of cases of this kind in every large city of the country, particularly here in the North, and the large number steadily increases in spite of prejudice and all other barriers. The United States of America is surely a great melting pot as far as colors and races are concerned. VERY BAD ADVICE. In an editorial on the "Failures of Hoover," from a race standpoint, The Chicago Defender says: "It is up to the far-seeing and intelligent black man to go into other parties and fight against the influences which are prejudicial to his best interests." There is no other party, except the Democratic party, for him to go into that has any chance to gain governmental control of this country, and it is like jumping from "the frying pan into the fire" for the black man to go into that party. Indeed, it is akin to committing political suicide, because that organization, controlled by southern Democracy, is the bitterest enemy of the race. Whatever we do to help solve our vital political problems, while political parties remain as they are, as far as we are concerned, must be done as Republicans, and like the father who punishes the son for misconduct. He does not forsake his home, to do so. Dividing our strength and going into impotent party (other than the Democratic party) will weaken us, and going into that party is, as we have already said, political suicide, pure and simple. It is our bitterest enemy and everyone knows it. We can hope for nothing from it when in control of the government. That was our experience in the past. Sane Afro-Americans cannot vote for Democratic presidential electors and members of The Congress. We must fight some other way to force the Republican leadership to treat our people fairly because they are a very potent factor of the party. Counseling Afro-American voters to go into "other parties" is a very serious mistake, to say the least. REPLACE MRS. WALKER. During the meeting of the Board of Education, Monday, a letter from the civil service committee of the Citizen's League was received, in which it was demanded that the board halt the political activities of Mrs. Hazel M. Walker, E. 79th St., a teacher in Mayflower school, a member of the county Republican central committee and political manager for Councilman Roy Bundy. The letter called attention to the fact that such activity was not permissible under the administrative code of the city charter. The league, it seems, has been a long time waking up, for Mrs. Walker has been campaigning, Bundy's political manager and otherwise very active in politics for a year or two. All the time a teacher in Mayflower school. The fact that Mrs. Lethia Fleming, wife of former Councilman Thos. W. Fleming, held a civil service position under the County Child Welfare Bureau was what it necessary, recently, to terminate her membership in the same committee. While Mrs. Walker is not, technically, a civil service employee, yet the citizens of Cleveland and their school-board have always insisted that politics should not be dragged into any phase of the local public-school work. And Mrs. Walker should not be allowed to do this longer. If she must have her activity in politics, let her resign as a public-school teacher. "The Youngest."

An order to the commissioners of a county, against who such recovery is held, to include with the costs of action, the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal YOU KNOW ME KID DUGAN THINKS YOU OUGHT TO APOLOGIZE TO HIM DID J. HURT HIM MUCH O 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: representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) A selected mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner to disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or nationality, the payment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than fifty dollars, and a person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. JONES OUT, WESLEY IN!

ROBERT ABBOTT'S WIFE SUES HIM FOR A DIVORCE Only Three "Negroes" Reported to Be Employed in the Mechanical Department of "The Chicago Defender"—Has a $15- 000 "Rolls Royce" and a Chauffeur! Chicago, Ill.—Mrs. Helen Thornton Abbott, wife of the president of the Robert S. Abbott Pub. Co., which publishes The Defender and a monthly magazine, has filed suit for divorce and is asking separate maintenance. He owns a palatial home at 4742 South Parkway, has a Rolls Royce sedan which is said to have cost in the neighborhood of $15,000, and an expensive Cunningham car, and maintains a chauffeur and servants. Mrs. Abbott owns a Pierce-Arrow convertible roadster which was given her by him on their recollection. The stock of the Robert S. Abbott Pub. Co. is owned by Abbott, with exception of a few shares. N. K. McGill, who married Mrs. Abbott's sister, is vice president and secretary of the company, and Mrs. G. Wimp Ridley, whose mother helped Abbott in his struggling days, is treasurer, Capt. Beote Lee is one of the stockholders. McGill supplanted Phil Jones, former general manager. Mrs. Abbott is whiter than most "white" or rather "gray" people while Mr. Abbott is an unadulterated black. The company owns two large Goss presses, six lottype machines and the entire plant is out of debt. However, only three "Negroes" are said to be employed in the mechanical design which has 70 employees in the payroll. Prior to his trip to Europe, several years ago, Abbott's salary as president of the company was reported to be $1,500 a week. He is reported to be seriously ill.

New York City.—Clarence Darrow is no "race sentimentalist" and he doesn't care who knows it. "I am a criminal lawyer, not a sentimentalist," said Darrow in a recent interview with E. W. Wilkins of the Kansas City Call. Darrow was trying to explain away his defense of the four avowed lynchers in the town of Lovefield, Iowa living. My business is that of a criminal lawyer. In spite of my activity on behalf of Negroes, very little of that income has come from them. I have bestirred myself for colored people. What they think of me doesn't make a great deal of difference. I am not trying to excuse myself to colored people for having participated in this case." Comment on this statement is unnecessary. Meantime, at Frankfort, Ky. Gov.

The swimming teachers among the natives are very much sought after by the visitors. That is perhaps why they picked up Kahahaawai rather than on any one of the other four who were accused of rape; that boy perhaps knew too much—and it is my guess that his tell, not him killed when they were bullying him in the Massie home—or wherever it was they "manslaughtered" him—Wm.

(Prepared by National Geographic Society. Its own which is shared by its people Washington, D. C.)—WNU Service. AFTER more than four centuries of government by European nations, the Balearic islands, now Spanish-owned, are seeking autonomy under the provisions of the new Spanish constitution. It is doubtful if there is in the world's geographic photograph album a family group whose members show as little family resemblance as do those of the Balearics. Majorca, the big sister, so well known to the world, sits in the center, full-grown and radiantly beautiful. Minorca, slight and delicate, yet with a grace that suggests a certain knowledge of the world, sits at her side. While Majorca is manifestly a daughter of Spain, Minorca's features and person partake of the north—a strange mixture of English and possibly a little Dutch with the Spanish. On the big sister's other hand, Iviza, a charming peasant in bright apron, skirt and shawl, hung with barbary jewelry, pliques the interest of the genealogist, for in her a different strain, probably Arabic, seems to predominate. She gazes out of the picture with level, quiet eyes that are a bit mysterious and disconcerting. Her face is unsmiling, even slightly smudgy, but still peculiarly attractive. At her feet is Formentera island, one of the two babies, almost Iviza's counterpart in face and dress. It seems unkind to draw attention to Cabrera, the other baby, crouched at Majorca's feet, for she is a spare, pathetic little figure, maltreated since birth. In her plain face are to be read the signs of misery. Such are the sister islands, and their description fits their people. The islanders are the pleasantest of folk to visit — simple-hearted, even-tempered, sober-minded, honest, and kindly. The welcome accorded the traveler in the Balerics differs according to island. Majorca greets the stranger with easy familiarity, for she has known many many tourists in the last few years; Minorca with quiet grace; and Iviza shyly; and the warmth of welcome is never in doubt. Ask a passer-by to indicate the direction to a store or hotel; you will be escorted to the door and bowed in, and generally you must not offer anything more material than thanks in return. The ideal Balearic climate contributes enormously to the traveler's comfort, and, in contrast to what one often experiences on the continent, it is a gratifying surprise to find the fondas, or inns, invariably clean and their meals wholesome. Mahon Has a Fine Harbor. One of the outstanding features of the Balearic group is the abundance and excellence of its harbors. Mahon, the principal city of Minorca, is an example. One's ship picks its way down a water lane, through pink and gray shores capped with rolling green, into what the Spanish government plans to make one of the finest harbors in the Mediterranean. Ever since Mago, the brother of Hannibal, wintered in this harbor (which still bears his name, Portus Magonis, now corrupted to Mahon), it has been famed as a refuge for ships, and its usefulness will be greatly increased when the Island of the Rats, a small knob of rock in the center of the basin, is removed. The islanders tell proudly how in 1798 Lord Nelson, during the war with France, came into Mahon with his squadron, seized the mansion that overlooked the port where his ships rode, and installed the lovely Lady Hamilton. But the town's historians smile rather sadly and admit that, while history is replete with incidents of Nelson's visit, it does not bear out the story of Lady Hamilton. And then Mahon! That is the way it comes. Suddenly, as the vessel rounds a point, it bursts into view, a quick splash of pink and white on the hillside, tier after tier of quaint streets, sollend in the sunshine. Mahon sparkles, as does the whole island. It is a maze of spotless up-and-down-hill streets of shining dolls' houses. From the steamer's deck the town, terrace upon terrace of white houses, with the spires of the inevitable churches dominating the mass, appears pure Spanish; but that is just Mahon's little joke on the visitor, for many of the houses show English features peering from under their Spanish somberos. This mixture of the English and Spanish gives Mahon a character of its own, which is shared by its people. It is the women who refuses to conform. In continental Spain and in the other islands they take their places in the fields with the men and the beasts of burden. Not so with upstanding Miss Minorca! She believes that "woman's place is in the home" or possibly, as a concession to the march of the times, in the factory, but not in the field, and there she refuses to go. Minorca Spurns Alargatas. Quite as remarkable, the alargata, the rope-soled canvas sandal of Spain and the rest of the Balearles, is practically extinct here. Whether it is that Minorca, producing a large proportion of the fine shoes sold in Spain, excludes this humble footwear from a feeling of local pride, or whatever the reason, the fact remains that Minorca wears shoes. The Balerics are rich in relics, from the days of the prehistoric inhabitants of the Mediterranean countries on down to modern times. Castles, churches, palaces, forts, and watchtowers are seen so frequently that they become almost matters of course. In Minorca there are still standing more than 200 of the talayots, taulas and naus—stone structures generally supposed to have been used in connection with prehistoric religious ceremonials and the burial of the dead—and the cliffs and mountains are literally honeycombed with caves. "Within twenty minutes" walk of Mahon there is a fairly well-preserved talayot, a truncated cone of huge stones, probably 40 feet in diameter and 25 feet in height, with a large taula near by. Surrounding the talayot, and marking another age in Minorcan history, are the walls of a fort built probably of the stones of the talayot. The surrounding fields are strewn with fragments of pottery from prehistoric times on down through the Phoenician, Grecian, Roman and Arabic occupations, and the high stone walls over which one scrambles to reach the charmed hilltop are capped with other fragments laboriously picked from the fields by the island farmers. The deepest thrill for the visitor to Minorca is to be found in its prehistoric caves. A talayot, taula, or nau is an awe-inspiring sight when one realizes what it stands for, but it has not the instantaneous effect on the imagination made by one of those cave homes of no one knows how many years ago. The Cove Caves. The Calas Covas, or Cove Caves, comprise a group in one of the many coves that indent the Minorcan shore, and certainly a better location from a dramatic standpoint could not have been selected by the cavemen. The cove is a wild, winding gash in the shore, descending sharply from the interior tableland to the sea. The approach to the caves is along a narrow path hedged by a matted scrub growth and by fragments of the cove walls, which during the ages have become dislodged and have crashed to the valley. At the water level these walls are high, jagged, and precipitous; the sea beats and snaps at them and the place itself compels awe. Wild deeds are plainly indicated. Add, then, to all this the effect of some forty black apertures extending from the water line to the tops of the cliffs—all made by man when the human forehead was lower and human life more precarious than is now. It is a meager imagination, indeed, that does not immediately people the cove with small, active men, wide between the cheekbones and as agile as monkeys. We can conjure up the picture and see them leaping among the crags to their eerie homes, chattering and bickering and certainly ready to make it most unpleasant for foreign invaders such as ourselves. Palma, the principal city of Majorca, is snugly situated at the central point of a magnificent horseshoe bay. Like all other waters of these remarkable islands, the Bay of Palma could supply half the colors of an artist's palette. The left-hand prong of the horseshoe shore, as one steam toward the city, was the scene of the first fighting between Don Jaine I, the Conqueror, and the defending Moors in 1229 A. D., and it is on this prong that Palma's fashionable tourist section has sprung up, with stately Bellerv castle, built by Jaine II, overlooking it from the top of a handsome wooded bill. Palma itself is a country village of 100,000 people and of considerable commercial importance. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1932. FIGURED FROCKS TO BE HIGHLY POPULAR Must Be Included to Make Wardrobe Complete. If you want your wardrobe to be a representative one it must include a figured frock. If you aren't addicted to prints, then choose a frock with an embroidered motif. For general wear, patterned fabrics seem to be much liked, as they suggest something of the easy, casual look that such clothes should possess. The prints shown up to now seem very modest affairs. Lots of interest is shown in fabrics with very widely spaced small motifs, this scattered pattern being a good compromise between the monotoned frock and the print. As yet there are no very radical departures in the mode. Wearable clothes that fit unobtrusively into the sartorial scheme are in the majority, clothes that do not need living or dressing up to, clothes that are easy to wear and yet retain that exclusive air. Such frocks can be worn and worn without ever becoming stale or losing their appeal. Trimming is reduced to a minimum. Pieces and tucks give embellishment and at the same time determine the silhouette. WHITE VELVETEEN BY CHERIE NICHOLAS JOHN LEE This is a Clinderella year for fabrics of strictly utilitarian fame. Velvetteen is the latest to leap to the head of the style parade along with sheer wool and corduroy. But the velvetteen that the Paris couturiers are featuring for coats, suits, jackets and formal gowns in their collections have scarcely a speaking acquaintance with the stiff, heavy cotton fabrics of yesteryear. These new velvetteens are lightweight, easy-draping and are attractively lustrous. The smart collarless jacket pictured is white velvetteen. It is worn with a black corduroy skirt. --- FLASHES FROM PARIS Jewelled clips adorn the mode. Just under the bustline is latest silhouette trend. Perched at very top of crown is newest pose for a single gardenia. Breton sailors of stiffened irish crochet accent the lace vogue. Quantities of scarfs are being used in every conceivable arrangement. Three-quarter length is newly accepted for the jacket which tops chile suits. Evening decolletage which goes high at the back and low at front where it is filled in with lace is fashion's latest caprice. Intricate Piecings Is Intricate cutting and seaming are both tremendously important factors in creating the really good frocks that will mark the spring sartorial season. Mathematical precision is more and more apparent in the joining and placing of the meticulously cut out pieces. This treatment not only trims the frock in the best and most costly way possible but is the determining factor in the molding of the silhouette. It gives the simple line that is at its best only when achieved through intricate methods. Fabric Hats Easy for Dert Artistic Fingers Fabric hats are not new, but they are brilliant examples of what deftly artistic fingers can make out of a mere swatch of material. Desirable concoctions of some remaining pieces of a favorite dress or ensemble can be evolved just like a head dress and becoming frame at least one side of your new flat coif fure. WALKING WEAR IS CHIC THIS SPRING Maintains Definitely Slim and Slender Silhouette. Walking wear will be most wearable and winsome this spring, maintaining a definitely slim and slender silhouette, but with easy walking fullness contrived with extreme subtlety. Walking wear refers to many well-cut coat-dresses, both in silk and wool, able to appear at any smart function of the day which happens to fall between ten in the morning and six at night. A walking frock in the popular high-walsted version comes in blue wool with cleverly worked sleeve of the blue and white printed blouse. One Paris designer trims his coatress of black flamingo with white wool lace, the same coming in black for the removable cape. "You-you" is a warm-weather walking model of Rodler wool in yellow barred with black and used on the blas. Another designer lines a black crepe de chine for walking with white and the white coat turns open a black lace. Nothing much smarter could be found for a walk than the severe black redingote which reveals a plain white pique frock beneath and which is the darling of a number of the designers this year. SMART SIMPLICITY By CHERIE NICHOLAS 1 At all smart resorts the creed of simplicity was adopted this winter and now that wandering fashionables are returning to town the movement is giving impetus to as spring leads to summer. The sports suit pictured is eminently good style. It is a turquoise blue angora knit. It is just such style touches as its glittering white ocean pearl buckle in a triple leaf pattern and its matching珍珠 clip on the blouse which gives it distinction. The skirt has many gores with that slim fitted silhouette which counts so much in favor of that which is most fashionable. STYLE NOTES Monotone silks in chalky colors are taking the lead. Pompons made of yarn change from many a fancy-knitted blouse. Sweater-blouse topping a fitted slim skirt makes the ideal sports costume. Flouces drop to near the hemline on softly styled afternoon frocks. The importance of navy blue, with touches of bright color or white, is outstanding. Brief Brims Are Mark of Newest Spring Hats Brim full of charm are the new spring hats, each with a brim that is full of tricks and flattering lines. Although now and again one sees a hat devoid of any suggestion of a brim, the brimmed model seems to be everyone's favorite. Some hats have only a suggestion of a brim, but even the briefest outline manages to cast a flattering shadow over the wearer's face. Style Dictates Cotton for the Summer Frock Fashionable summer frocks will be of cotton, undoubtedly the smartest fabric for sports dresses, daytime dresses, beach clothes, for garden parties, and even evening wear. Rough weaves, lacy effects, nubby meshes, printed colorful volles, and cotton laces will be seen everywhere from dawn till dusk.

Golf for women is no new thing in this country, but as the years go by more and more women are entering into active sports—swimming, tennis, golf, riding and so on. Many of them are as good as golfing mothers at these energetic exercises. Moreover, a little private survey has brought to light that these "golfing mothers", as we might as well call them, are quite as much "up" on what to wear as their chic young daughters. We decided to get down to basic facts and found that the well groomed sports woman doesn't wear fussy and fragile undergarments for her sports. The sketch shows ideal vogettes for active as well as spectator sports. It's a very smart, but extremely economical and practical durene notebly meach.

By Emma Lou Fetta NEW York City.—With summer descending upon nearly the whole country we looked around to that old time cynosure of fashions—the theater—for ideas of what to wear in the country. We found a man who had been in successful mystery play called "The Man Who Changed His Name" and we found Bainter wearing a perfectly simple but extremely effective, knitted dress. As you see, we induced Bainter to wear a dress that was not a charmingly casual portrait which showed the simplicity and the fab- Gingko Tree In Gingko Tree In a New Role By EMMA LOU FETTA IN order to maintain a thoroughly non-partisan and unembellished national attitude the designers of a new and lovely durene bedspread have chosen the gingko tree for their motif. The gingko tree is indigenous to both China and Japan. If you don't want to think about either China or Japan, and you do want to rush right out and buy one of these beautiful and extremely utilitarian spreads, you can associate the gingko design with Marco Polo and his voyages, or with trees in general—since all the world loves trees. The design on these new, softly lustrous and extremely washable Patronize Our Patronize Our Advertisers ric interest of the dress. It is cut on surplice lines with very short sleeves and its whole charm lies in the soft durene luster and the gay, brown and cream diamond pattern. Brown, you know, is a good summer shade if it's a cool brown. And this one is one of those almost-good-enough-to-eat browns. Miss Bailor suggested that this is the kind of dress any smart woman would wear when she is at home in a country house and wants to be cool, simply attired and vet ready for visitors. n a New Role spreads is especially effective. It might be used in almost any type of bedroom—in one of those with an early American four poster; or on a fussy French bed; or a rich Italian one; in fact, on almost any bed save a Chinese or Japanese one! The spread has the sheen of old and exquisite silk or linen. It has body but looks delicate. The gingko motif is woven in a contrasting shade and enlarges charmingly on the fan shaped leaf of the ancient oriental tree. All the lovely pastel shades and stronger paint box tones are available, so the designers tell me.
