The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The Miller city administration has segregated our bathers at Gordon Park bathing bath, restricting them and the whites to two adjoining sections, it is said. And we have three members of the City Council! Lord, have mercy! on "The Blossom Triplets." A lady in Pittsburgh complains that the librarian in one of its schools insists upon reading to the children "a great deal of literature containing such phrases and terms as 'nigger,' 'Blackie,' 'Little Black Samba,' etc." The Rounder would suggest to Prof. Carter G. Woodson, who published the book that he got inouch Atty A. J. Cunningham of the city so that he and the Pittsburgh lady can learn how Mr. Cunningham recently secured the elimination, from the libraries used by the schools, of just that sort of thing here in this city and county. Following an argument as a result of overcharge food bills, two men returned to the Rose Lunch, 4901 Central Ave. Tuesdays about midnight, with friends, and threw rocks thru the lunchroom windows; Mike Gonclase, a Greek, proprietor. Six windows and a showcase were broken and one of the attacks taken to Charity for treatment for burns and bruises. Gonclase man over the head with a stick. Police arrived, as usual, after the fight and accepted Gonclase's statement. The big pool of blood on the floor seemed to make no difference as far as they were concerned. Here is some more work for the local N. A. A. C. P. branch, President Pierce --- The story being retold by a few foolish political henchmen of Councilman Roy Bundy, to the effect that Mr. Ed. Schorr of Cincinnati, chairman of the State Republican committee, promised "The Blossom Triplet," at Columbus, last week, the disposition of the state patronage to go to "Afros" of Ohio, or even of this section of the state, is positively so silly that even the retailers of the fib ought to see it and themselves as others see them. The head of the local Republican ticket, Mr. Maurice Maschke, whom Bundy double-crossed during the rebellion, against Bundy threatened, some months ago, to run out of the 17th ward if he went there to make a political speech and then begged forgiveness for the "wet" threat, will have much to say about that. Some people are so politically dumb and unsophisticated, they are a "pain" and a "headache." A Bandit Blackened His Face. Corpus Christi, Texas.—Asa U.

Convention a Success—Its "High Point" for the Future—One of its Best Results. Dayton, O.—The Tri-District Sunday School institute and Christian Endeavor convention of the Third Episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church closed its annual meeting, last Friday night, here at Wayman chapel. The sessions opened, July 13, with President R. F. Ballard of Cadiz presiding. A very interesting program was carried out. The first day and a half was devoted to the work of the S. S. while that of the C. E. occupied the remaining day and half. The high points of the convention were the "Jesus Christ" and "Our Youth" by Mr. Omar Ward. The "Interpretation of Hymns" by Mrs. A. E.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS BRANDS SUPT. ROSE BEATY A STATE INSTITUTION HEAD REPORTED TO DIRECTOR McSWEENEY, AS AN INTOLERANT SEGREGATIONIST. His Reply—She Should Be Removed Promptly—Two State Institutions for Girls Investigated by N. A. A. C. P. State Committee. (Special to The Gazette) (Special to The Gazette) O. H.—How a committee representing the Cleveland N. A. A. C. P. branch was insulted by Rose Beatty, recently appointed state superintendent of the Girls' Industrial School at Delaware, is told in a communication presented to the Hon. John McSweeney, state director of public welfare in a two-hour conference in Columbus, last week Monday. The committee, composed of David H. Pierse, pres.; Miss Pearl Mitchell, vice-pres.; and Gordon H. Simpson, sec., of the Cleveland branch, recently visited the Delaware institution, and the Women's reformatory at Marysville, following a disturbance in which authorities transferred fourteen of our girls to the later institution, and sent one girl (white) to Columbus for mental observation. Information was sought as the basis for a report to a meeting of the Ohio Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branches in Columbus, last week Monday. Extracts from the communication, authorized by the Ohio Conference, and Director McSweeney's reply, follow: Report to State Director McSweeney. "Mrs. Beatty apparently was under the impression that the committee had come to visit the institution for the purpose of learning her views on the race question, whereas the committee had been recent disturbance there. She was positively insulting to the members of the committee who were unable to impart to her several of their suggestions because of her intolerant and viciously prejudiced attitude. Much of the time of the conference in her office was taken up by Mrs. Beatty recounting her experiences in the South and her definite conviction that a policy of segregation was in the best interest of the institution. It appeared that the biggest problem confronting Mrs. Beatty was sending back to their southern homes colored girls whom she claimed were not resisting his policy. The committee found that there were only four such girls in the institutions. Mrs. Beatty stated that she had written a letter to Mr. T. L. Lewis, chief juvenile probation officer, Cleveland, in which she had demanded that Cuyahoga county furnish charity rate transportation to Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama for three of these girls. Perhaps the greatest affront to the committee was the effort of Mrs. Beatty to corrupt one of its members by suggesting to him in private conversation that because he was a white man she would have been colored members of the committee could not understand her point of view. After careful consideration the committee is strongly of the following opinion: Unfit for the Position "That Mrs. Beatty, because of her intolerant, unscissible, and vicious prejudiced attitude toward Negroes, is definitely unfit to successfully administer the institution. Mrs. Beatty is impervious to suggestion. She is one of those with a southern background who feel positively that she 'knows' the Negro and therefore nothing else is to be learned. That because of the following, we confidently predict that further administration will depend on her white and colored inmates, will arise and that Mrs. Beatty will cause further embarrassment to the present state administration. Cottage 8 is not a fire-proof building. The present practice of using individual locks, on the cell-doors would be a menace to the safety of the inmates, in the event of fire and should be corrected. As a public servant, Mrs. Beatty should realize that the citizens of Ohio who support by their taxes the institution over which she is at present presiding, have a right at all time to remain in residence and least to have their suggestions, based on long experience, received in an equally courteous manner. Offer to Help "The over-crowded condition of Cottage 8, according to Mrs. Beatty's statement, is due to the fact that several girls, who are eligible for parole, cannot leave because acceptable homes are not available for them. In this problem, our Ohio Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branches will be happy to co-operate in recommending to parole officers suitable homes for placement. The Columbus Sunday Star of July 10th carries a story with the THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as the most NEWEST ABTET published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans.

After visiting the institution and studying both Mrs. Beatty and Mrs. Day, we are of the opinion that the article is merely a reflection of Mrs. Beatty's personal views, as expressed to our committee, and that in the article they are ascribed for the day. For the unavailability, Members of the Ohio Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branches who are familiar with the work of Mrs. Day, over a number of years, find it difficult to believe that on her own volition she would issue such a statement. The Marysville Visit. "The committee also visited Marysville Reformatory and had a brief conference with Mrs. Mittenford, superintendent, and her husband. Mrs. Mittenford would not permit the committee to talk with any of the girls recently temporarily transferred from Delaware. The contrast between the general penal policies and practices of the Marysville and Delaware institutions are marked by obvious differences that Mrs. Bostey could take some profitable lessons from the Marysville institution." This letter-report was presented to State Welfare Director McSweeney by a committee authorized by the Ohio Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branches, consisting of David H. Pierce, Miss Pearl Mitchell, Gordon H. Simpson and J. Slaughter of Canton, and was signed by the three island representatives and C. Dickinson, Miss Geraldyne Freeland, sec., of the Ohio Conference. In his reply to President Dickinson, Director McSweeney said in part: Director McSweeney's Reply Director McWeeney's Reply. "I am certainly very glad to have the suggestions that you make. I am also glad to have criticisms made of our officers; but on the other hand, I want you to understand and I am sure you will agree with me, that I am to be the mediator between these officers and the public that I must stand by them to correct them if they make errors and if they prove themselves totally unfitted for their task to discharge them. But on the other hand, until all these things have been proved I must stand back of these officers and help them to efficiently perform their duties. I will be glad to meet with you at any time and discuss this matter further. I am glad you came to the office when you did to have the meeting relative to this matter." Gordon H. Simpson. DOINGS OF THE RACE. As a rule the comedian parts in the movies played by Clarence Muse are so very unnatural that they are proving harmful to Afro-Americans. The "jim-crow" annex to the Republican National Committee, during several presidential campaigns, is to be discontinued, this year, it is reported. The Biennial Movable Conference of our Odd Fellows has postponed its annual national meeting to Aug. 15, 1934. It was to convene at Washington, D. C., Aug. 8-12, "32. The N. A. C. A.

SATURDAY, JULY 23, 1932. GEORGE DIDN'T KNOW OF IT. The father of Rudolph Burns, the lad drowned several weeks ago at Gordon park beach, informs The Gazette that when he went to see his councilman, Atty. Clayborne George, relative to the neglect of the city guards to go to the lad's assistance in response to the cries of Milton Toy who had dived six times to bring up the Burns lad, the councilman didn't even know of the heart-rending incident though the daily papers had been full of it for several days. And if Mr. George has taken any interest in the efforts of David H. Plerce, president of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch, to secure an official investigation of the most distressful affair, we have not been able, to date, to learn of it. That "Blossom Triplet" is sure running true to form in this as in many other matters of like concern to our people, his constituents, since he has been a member of the City Council. Lord, have mercy! BEATTY OR WHITE MUST GO. Mrs. Rose Beatty, state superintendent of the Girls' Industrial school at Delaware, apparently needs to be told and convinced that a policy of any kind, carried out in that institution which is not in the best interest of all the people of the state of Ohio, is not one that should have a place "in her definite conviction" or that of any other servant of all the people of this state. Mrs. Beatty either should rid herself of her prejudice convictions or take them with her back South, proton! Ohio institutions are no place for southern intolerance of the kind she apparently possesses, or any other kind, and this state will not have, as public servants, individuals of her calibre. Change her prejudice convictions State Welfare Director McSweeney, or "fire" her, at once! If this is not done promptly, there will be nothing left for Ohio Afro-American voters to do, this fall, but to unitedly oppose the re-election of Gov. George White. Rev. Russell S. Brown, pastor of Mt. Zion Congregational church, this city, and former city councilman, looked down on the intersection of Central Ave. and E. 55th St. from the dome of the church, Monday, which was a pleasant green. He had painted it, thereby saving the church more than $600. A contractor had asked $700 to paint the church. The dome had not been painted for 30 years and the cupola is 300 feet up. Saturday, a man was walking along Central Ave. when a paint-bucket rolled from the roof of the church and landed near him. Some one ran out from the church and told him the pastor was on the roof and offered apologies. Something had slipped. In this way it became generally known in the neighborhood that Rev. Brown was painting the church. While the pastor was working, about 200 feet above Central Ave., his only thing he had to hang on to in addition to a life-line which he had arranged. He managed to pull himself up to a ledge, with the assistance of the rope where he rested awhile. Before climbing back, with the aid of the life-line, he found a place for the bucket where it would not roll down and cause another scene. The roof of the church is steep and slippery. Preparing for possible future eventualities, he also fastened ladders to the eaves troughs at points where he might roll off if he slipped. Rev. Brown said, Monday, that his expense to that date was only $12 for paint and that it would probably cost him less than $25 to finish the job. Well, The Gazette takes its hat off to Pastor Brom, and has made a firm resolution to attend Mt. Zion Cong. church a little oftener in the future and drop something in the collection basket, each time. We are satisfied that there are others who feel as we do about it. As Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter of the Boston Guardian would say, Rev. Russell S. Brown sure has some "guts." Prime Sport News Our Olympic Games' Representatives. Palco Alto, Calif.—As anticipated by about everybody, Ralph Metalea of Marquette U. and Eddie Tolan of Michigan U. were one-two in both the 100 and 200 meters try-out final races, last Saturday, for places on the one-tournament team. Try won over such teams as Frank Wykoff of Southern California U., Ernest Toppino of New Orleans U. and Geo. Simpson of Ohio State U. Johnson of Illinois Normal made a splendid showing in the 400-meter try-out but failed to win place. Decision Booed by 20,000. Decision Booed by 20,000. New York City.—The Kid Chocolate-Kid Berg (white) fight here, Monday night, was another of the many flascos the ring has furnished in this country and France in the last few weeks. A crowd of more than 20,000 booed the decision in the two contestants. Berg's bright weight champion weighed 137 lbs, while Chocolate claunched at 130%. The latter scored the heavier punches and had Berg in distress in the early rounds and again in the 13th. Chocolate did the cleaner hitting and sharper punching and met Berg's charges with two-fisted thrusts that thrilled the great crowd. He whaled Berg's head with rights, cutting both his eye-brows and leathered his body with terrific two-fisted volleys that left Berg gasping for breath and badly hurt. Time and again Chocolate handed Berg a blistering head attack and rocked the Englishman with fist and body blows. In the 13th round, with a withering fire he rocked Berg's head and sent him staggering from one side of the court to the other, throwing the large out of fans, Johnnie McAvey, referee, and Harold Barnes, judge, gave the decision to Berg while Charlie Lynch judge, voted for Chocolate. The Associated Press gave the latter a margin of one round, seven for the Afro-Cuban, six for Berg and two rounds even. The crowd booed the decision heartily because Chocolate undoubtedly had won the contest. WROTE OUR FIRST OPERA. "Tom-Tom" is not the first "all Negro opera" to be produced in this city, or the country. The Rounder Harry L. Freeman. remembers well when Harry L. Freeman, a native of this city, now a resident of New York City, provides care and support and in that city, as well as a second one there, by the name of "Voodoo," several years ago. MR. LAWRENCE HIGGINS PROMPTLY ELIMINATED The Objectionable Term in "Tom Tom", When Requested to Do So — Shirley Graham Greatly Peeved as a Result. Cleveland, June 27, 1932. Mr. Lawrence Higgins, The Laurence Studios, 3433 Carnegie Ave., Cleveland, O. Dear Sir: — Westerday, I learned that the maliciously insulting term, "nigger", is in the third act of "Tom Tom". It is much more objectionable to my people than some of the vicious terms directed against other people. For instance, "boch", for the German; "sheeny", for the Jew; "mick", for the Irish; "dago", for the Italian; etc. All synonymous and very insulting terms. The use of that most objectionable term in "Tom-Tom" will cause the loss of thousands of dollars in the matter of attendance. No decent, self-respecting colored person attends an entertainment of any kind to be grossly insulted and ridiculed, especially within the sight and hearing of thousands of members of other groups, to say nothing of their own. Using my paper, I have done about all in my power, in recent weeks, to encourage a large attendance upon Stadium opera, especially the evenings that "Tom-Tom" is presented, and am very anxious to see your efforts a financial success. Do not artificially press thorns. Do not allow anything like the one to which I have called your attention, to so militate against the financial success of your splendid undertaking either here or in New York City where such a great insult will also be resented promptly.

Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: MOBS. Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282.

Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278.

An act of violence by a person of the body of any person shall constitute a purpose within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279.

Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a sum not exceeding five thousand dollars (93 v. 12 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand, and such successful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow, the child, the child to the child, the share, if there no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of the person so lynched, or subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recourse provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is bad, to indemnify the commissioners of 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 representatives of a person killed or murdered by the persons composing such mob.

Section 6288. If a 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: 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 for the purpose of the accommodation or color, the full enjoyment 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, if the son 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 if, in the courts. PROTEST! PROTEST!! To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and just the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

S. Cable Network Supplies Many Roads For Voices Detouts without delay or inconvenience. Unbelievable as this may seem, that is what the Traffic Control Bureau of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company accomplishes in its Cleveland office. The bureau's work is not apparent to telephone users. When a subscriber calls a distant ely, he is conscious only of almost instantaneous communication. As far as he knows, his voice wires itself directly to its destination. Little does he realize that the voice highways have detours just as the highways over which he drives his car. Serves 2,500 Circuits The Cleveland Traffic Control Bureau establishes pathways over about 2,500 long distance telephone circuits in the nation's central section to insure swift telephone service to all points 24 hours a day. Cleveland has one of three such traffic bureaus covering the United States, the others being in Chicago and New York. Although the Ohio bureau is primarily concerned with traffic conditions in Ohio, Michigan and western Pennsylvania and the New York, it co-operates with the other bureaus in keeping telephone lines open to all points in the country. An auxiliary traffic bureau at Columbus, O., operated by The Ohio Bell Telephone Company, performs similarly for calls within Ohio. Maintains Uniform Service A cable breaks and the bureau swings into action. Teletypewriters flash the news to the Cleveland bureau and a rapid survey of the situation is made.
