One plan calls for execution of a housing project to take care of practically twice the number of occupants of the present area, the buildings to occupy only 18 per cent. of the ground space and the rest to be used for park space. Three bedrooms, living room, kit.hemet, bath, porch and roof garden space are provided for each family. A central tower arrangement would take care of individuals desiring single rooms. This plan would eliminate the roomer problem in small families of the lower economic levels. An alternative plan calls for a more modest plan of construction in which five rooms would rent for $10 a month. This plan was being considered for a location in the central part of the city. ```markdown ``` THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1932.

C., and a grandson of Mrs. Julia Anderson Burdine, former resident of this city. HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The Democratic Miller administration even had the "brass" to hire a WHITE band to play at the Portland-Outwaithe center, one evening, this week. What was the matter with the "Negro" Democratic bands? Some of them were coming the next time. "O boy! What Ray Miller has "coming" from both Democrats and Republicans, next year in the fall time! The Rounder learns that several meetings have been held by persons employed in the presentation of "Tom-Tom" at the stadium, several weeks ago. The purpose of the meetings was to decide what to do to get the money due each individual for services rendered. There is but one thing to do under the circumstances and that is to sign and return to Lawrence A. Higgins the "agreement" he has sent to each one of them. To enter suit, in any case, would be foolish and an inexcusable waste of money for attorney's fees, etc., that would not accomplish any good results for those who have money due them. While no runs have been taken off the Scovill Ave. lines, the recent routing of the cars thru E. 2d Strobs the residents of the third and fourth councilmanic districts of the privilege of riding to the stadium or the old depot without the payment of additional car or bus fare and compels them to walk practically three ordinary blocks to get to the public square, the center of the city. This is how "The Blossom Triplets," Councilmen George, Payne and Bundy, look after the interests of their constituents. The service patrons get on both the Scovill and Central Ave. car-lines is possibly the worst in the city. And the bulk of the so-called "Negro" population is resident in the third and fourth districts! Sure several "Negroes" have been killed in the Greek and Bulgarian restaurants in the third councilmanic district. The riot of last week, in which windows were broken in the Nicholas Christopher eating houses at E. 49th and Central Ave, and E. 46th and Scovill Ave., are but two of several to occur in recent years. The Rounder well remembers when one or two "Negroes" were killed in a Woodland Ave. foreigner's restaurant. But little things like that do not seem to estop some "Negroes" from patronizing the restaurants in question. It looks like the worse some of them are mistreated the better they seem to like the place, whether a restaurant, roller-skating rink or other such public places. Just how many "Negro" Democrats are in the third and fourth councilmanic districts is best indicated by the vote cast for G. C. Lacy, Mrs. L. L. Rogers, Rev J. W. Ribbins and Walter Brown, candidates for the Council, last year, and not the alleged vote they claim was cast by Afro-American voters for other candidates on the Democratic ticket. That fact doubtless entered into the appointment (an outrage) of Ferd Jirsa as superintendent of the Portland-Outside recreational center which opened its outdoor activities, Monday. What would have happened if Mayor Miller's park director, Martia, had appointed a "Negro" Democrat or one of some other race or group other than that resident in the locality, superintendent of a center, bathhouse, or anything else, in the Judges Award Verdict to Victor After Long Debate, So Close Was Metcalfe. Los Angeles, Calif.—Two Afro-American flashes of lightning, restored world-sprint supremacy to the United States, Monday, at the same time winning the spotlight of the Olympic track and field championships for the day. Inches apart in a whirlwind, Tolan and Ralph Metcalfe finished one-two for CITY OF NEW YORK EDDIE TOLAN this country in the final of the classic 100-meter dash. It was so close that several of the judges, as well as many of the 60,000 spectators, disputed the result, but the judges finally declared Eddie the victor by a hand's breadth and credited him with 10.3 seconds, equaling the world record and shattering the Olympic mark. Tolan, who had lowered the Olympic record the day before to 10.4 seconds, got off to a better start than Metcaffe, but the rangy Marquette U. ace was coming like a thunder bolt at the close. As both few past the judges it seemed to many that Metcaffe had shoved his chest in front, though there were plenty, too, who thought Tolan was ahead. It looked like Metcaffe to the American headcoach, Lawson Robertson, by a close margin, and Tolan himself apparently thought he had lost as he ran over to congratulate Metcaffe. Both fine boys! Meanwhile, the official announcer cast his voice in Metcaffe favor and the biased silence was maintained when Tolan was finally proclaimed the winner by the officials. The electro-photographic "camera-clock" showed that Tolan beat Metcaffe by two inches, Gustavus T Kirby, American member of the board of judges, told the Associated Press: All the judges agreed their official decision was sustained by the motion pictures, Kirby said. The "camera clock," Kirby added, registered Tolan's time as 10.28 seconds, as compared with the official "hand time" of 10.3 seconds, which equaled the world record. It is now World Champion Eddie Tolan. Good! Los Angeles, Calif.—Eddie Tolan of Detroit “world's fastest human.” Wednesday was crowned the double Olympic sprint champion by racing to decisive victory in the 200-meter final in 21.2 seconds, a new Olympic record, slicing two-tenths of a second off the best mark made in the record-breaking trials, Tuesday. George Simpson finished second and to everyone's surprise, Ralph Metcalfe was third. Arthur Jonath of Germany was fourth, Carlos Lutti of Argentina, fifth and Bill Walters of South Africa, sixth and last. Tolan won going away. He came with a terrific rush down the straightaway after the sweep around the turn, finishing two yards in front of Simpson. Metcalfe was off poorly and never able to make up lost ground in the final drive, despite a powerful effort. Italian, Polish, Irish or any other neighborhood in this community, except ours? The Jirsa appointment settles it! Local Democrats will not "get round-shouldered," this fall, carrying its "Negro" vote. The appointment of eight members of the race as life-guards and attendants, the police officer, the Portland-Outlawwaite center doesn't and won't mean a thing, but the sight of Supt. Ferd Jirsa at the center will. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS FORMER U. S. SENATOR, AND THE ORATOR OF THE INFAMOUS KU KLUX KLAN. His Five-Hour-Long "Swan Song"—Got a Dose of His Own Political Medicine "Down Home" in "Alabam"—Shouse's Democratic Appeal. (Special to The Gazette) In his more than five hours' speech to the members of the United States Senate, some months ago, former Senator "Tom-Tom" Heflin of Alabama, said, "voters were intimidated, ballots stolen and every illegal method" was used to defraud him of his re-election in Alabama. This is no new charge against the political machine that has been running Alabama for many years. By this same machine, Heflin had an office with greece. It uttered not a law, but a law. In making his plea, he appealed almost wholly to the Republican side of the Senate. Against this side of the Senate, Heflin had used his machine in past years with brazen cfrontery and braggadocio. The people, whose votes had been stolen, liberties denied, rights disregarded and elective franchise destroyed, were Negroes. Heflin used to grow indignant, and reply with heat and fire when Alabama was accused of "intimidating Negroes." But he became independent of the Alabama Democratic machine and what he could to defeat Alabama's choice for President in 1928. For this he was driven out. and he formed Democratization. He turned to Republicanism. He turned to Republicans to save his political skin. For five long hours, he pled to be seated in place of Senator Bankhead who had profited by the machine as did Heflin formerly. This same Heflin crucified the Republican party in Alabama, rode rough-shod over Negroes and on the floor of the U. S. Senate berated them whenever he saw fit. Heflin also robbed the Republican Senator and by the nefarious method of COUNTING saw to it that no Republican could be elected even though the whole state voted for him. This is the man that turned to the party he helped it to elect. He helped it to aid him to get back into the U. S. Senate to continue his former doings. "Chickens came home to roost" in his case. We agree with Heflin that Senator Bankhead has no right to a seat, for he not only, according to Heflin, is there because of illegal practices against Heflin but he is also there because he denied citizens of this nation the right to cast their vote and have them counted as cast. These were largely Alabama Negroes. Democratic Appeal to Our Voters. Mr. Jouett Shouse, national chairman of the executive committee of the Democratic party at the time met a group of our voters and made a stirring plea to them to divide their votes. He desired some of these voters for the Democratic party. Mr. Shouse should be conscience-smitten, if he has any in politics, when he thinks of what the Democratic party Tolan's time was the fastest ever made around a turn for the 200, the world record of 20.6 having been registered on a straightaway. Gordon Wins Broad Jump. The U. S. won its third men's championship, Tuesday, when our Edward Gordon of Iowa, came through with the best leap in the broad jump, 25 feet % inch. The big surprise was the defeat of the two men who have held world records and cleared 26 feet. The present world record-holder, Chuhei Nambu of Japan, was third, Sylvia Cator of Haiti did not qualify among the six finalists. DOINGS OF THE RACE. Leon D. Paris, Haitian aviator, recently flew from New York to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The N. A. A. C. P. has contributed $1,000 to the I. L. D.'s legal defense-fund for the Scottsboro, Ala., boy-victims. Editor R. R. Wright, of the Philadelphia Christian Recorder, assumes the presidency of Wilberforce University, Aug. 12. Aubrey Lyles, age 49, comedian, died, last week Friday, in N. Y. City. He was the junior member of the team, Miller & Lyles. "Negro" bureaus of the Republican National Committee may be established in connection with its Chicago and New York headquarters or both, according to the committee's publicity department.

It's policies, towards any matter or principle, are the policies of the Democratic party Rev. William A. Byrd. everywhere. Negroes in Texas have foolishly been fighting to get an opportunity to vote in Democratic primaries. The South tells the world it does not want the Negro as a voter or as a participant in the government of the South, or the Nation. Mr. Shouse is either kidding in order to get votes of our people in northern and eastern states, or else he looks upon them as dumb animals who lick the hands of masters that kick them around. Negroes have often issued the Democratic party, until the South agrees to respect the laws of the Constitution respecting the franchise and civil rights of EVERY American citizen, until the South scans its policy of Negro oppression, the entire Democratic party need not expect real Negro men and women to vote for it or with it. A vote for the Democratic party in the North in federal elections is strengthening the hands of the Democratic south that the Negroes have often been deceived into voting for well-meaning individuals of the Democratic party but they should remember that it is not the individual that shapes the policies of that party or of this nation, but political parties. Outstanding individuals are an asset to any party for the easy putting over of its program, but every head must listen to the needs and wants of the body which is the PARTY. Mr. Shouse should first change the political attitude of his supporters to our own people and seek to sell it to us or even some of us. (Rev.) William A. Byrd. Several Family Reunions—Personal and Church News of Interest—Miller City Prison Physician. Zanesville, O.—Dr. James H. Miller, age 50, a resident here for 16 years, prominent Mason and Elk, dived into the Licking river, last week Wednesday, and failed to reappear. The body was recovered by police about a half hour after. Robert Russell went with him to the river.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1932. An exchange announced, last week, that "Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., accepts big post at Ohio school." It is a "big post," alright—with a debt of over a quarter of a million dollars. A Newark, New Jersey, official is trying to induce our unemployed of his city and county to return South, offering them free railroad transportation. Nearly one thousand of our families in Newark are dependent on the city for support. Nevertheless, said official will not be called upon to furnish much free transportation—very few of them want to return to the section controlled by southern Democracy—where they have no rights that even a "cracker" need respect. THEY KNOW!—even if some so-called northern "Negro" Democrats, for selfish personal reasons, affect not to know. THE K. K. K. BACK HOME Texas Democrats revived the despicable Ku Klux Klan to help them keep our people from voting in their primary election, July 23. And that state is the home of Garner, vice-presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket. This ought to mean something to the so-called northern "Negro" Democrats, but will it? The more some individuals of both races are kicked, good and hard, the better they seem to like it, even in politics. Southern Democracy, the head and body of national Democracy, has no use for even so-called "Negro" Democrats, and is not at all backward in saying so. It is not near so bad in the case of Republican leadership and the Republican party. Nevertheless, "Negro" Democrats (so-called) persist in their stand in favor of southern "cracker"-Democratic control of this country. Lord, have mercy! Some people convinced against their will are of the same opinion still. "SLAPPED IN THE MOUTH"! As indicated in last week's Gazette, Mayor Ray Miller of this city, thru his director of parks, Saturday announced the appointment of Atty. Eerd Jirsa as superintendent of the Portland-Outhwaite recreation center. At the same time, he announced that an Afro-American would be appointed assistant superintendent. This will give all of our people in the third councilmanic district not only a headache but a stomachache, and if the so-called "Negro" Democrats swallow it, they will have to have stomachs like a "hippo" or a crocodile. The appointment of Jirsa to head the official force of the center, located as it is in the very heart of the section of the city most thickly populated by our people, is sure, a most aggravating insult. Imagine, if you can, Mayor Miller and Parks' Director Matia appointing a "Negro" or any one else except one of the majority race or group resident there, superintendent of a center, or even a bathhouse, in a Polish, Italian or any other settlement in this community! The Jirsa appointment shows ALL of our people in this community just what Mayor Miller thinks of them, particularly "Negro" Democrats. He wouldn't dare do that to any other group or class in this city. Not a single one of the fairly good positions held under Republican rule has been given to a "Negro" Democrat by Mayor Miller. Everyone of them was filled by the appointment of a Democratic member of some other group in the community. And now comes the Jirsa appointment. As indicated in the foregoing, it is too much and ought to and doubtless will be "the straw that broke the camel's back" for local "Negro" Democrats. Bad as the Republicans have treated our people at times, and are still doing, never have they given us such miserable mistreatment as we have received from local, state and na- tional Democracy not only in the way of appointments but in every other way. So-called "Negro" Democrats can "put this in their pipe and smoke it" because it is the truth! JUSTICE OUTRAGED The freeing of those six law-breakers (white) at Ironton, last Friday, is an outrage of justice seldom heard of in the state of Ohio. They were tried on a charge of second degree murder and admitted that they forebly removed Chaufeur Luke Murray of Atlanta, Ga., from the South Point, Ohio, jail (near Ironton), but denied having "lynched" him. The jury was out eight hours, returning to the court room for additional instructions before returning the verdict. Murray's body, badly bruised, was found floating in the Ohio river not long after he was taken from the jail. This court-verdict is an outrage of justice which Chief Justice John Marshall of the state supreme court, who is the head of the courts of the state of Ohio, cannot afford to let stand. It is a blot on the eschutcheon of this state which all law-abiding citizens of Ohio will resent at the first opportunity, if it is permitted to stand. The circumstances leading up to the lynching of Luke Murray are really ridiculous. The charge that he threatened some resident (a man) of the town with a knife supplemented by the announcement that citizens of the place resented Luke's taking his employee's wife and daughter for rides in their automobile, something he was accustomed to do on the order of his employer, makes the whole affair perfectly clear. The six law-breakers are: Taylor Napier, Theo Johnson, Clyde Elkins, Milford, Garland and Lawrence Massie. We respectively request Judge Marshall to look into this action of that Ironton court and to inaugurate such action as his position at the head of the courts of Ohio makes possible. Prime Sport News Johnson Wins. Larry Johnson, Chicago light-heavy, batted out a decision victory over George Pavilk, Johnny Riske's stablemate, in the eight-round battle which followed the main clash at the stadium, this city, Monday night. Jones vs. December. "Gorilla" Jones of Akron, who still claims to be world middleweight champion, will battle Jack December GORILLA JONES six rounds here at Public Hall, Tuesday night. He was robbed of his world title in his bout with Marcel Thiel in Paris, France, last month. He is still recognized officially, however, as the American champion. Echoes of The "Kids'" Fight. Here is how the sport-writers of the Metropolitan daily-newspapers regarded the decision "in the recent "Kid Chocolate"-"Kid" Berg fight-fiasco in N. Y. City at Madison Square Garden. It will readily be recalled how the verdict was "awarded" Berg, over. Chocolate. "I was so stunned and shocked with the decision that I don't even want to write about it, it was just plain awful," declared Bill Corum of the New York Evening Journal, who continued: "Now if the boys who yelled robbery after the Shark-key-Schmeling fight in the job of second-story work they should have been in the Madison Square Garden Bowl in Queens, last night. This one I shall always treasure in my memory book as the sweetheart of them all. The little black boy (Chocolate) a truly great fighter, did everything to Berg but dissect him with a surgeon's knife. It was the second time Chocolate had been robbed by Berg, but the other fight was comparatively close. It was a joke. That is it was if there is any humour in highway robbery." If Berg won, so did Gen. Lee at Richmond, observes Hype Igo of the same publication, who wrote: "Kid Chocolate absolutely defeated Berg in every department save unbridled courage. Berg hasn't taken such a shellacking since the night he met Tony Canzoneri in their return bout. The decision, exquisite in its rankness, left the crowd speechless. Mayor Walker arose after the verdict had been rendered and rubbing his chin remarked with a drawl: 'Never bet on anything!'" Murray Lewin of the Daily Mirror, proclaiming that the decision smelled to high heaven, and that Chocolate outboxed and punched Berg two-thirds of the way, wrote: "Louis Gutierrez, Chocolate's manager, assists spoken in his criticism of those who voted against his battle that Gen. John T. Phelan of the Boxing Commission who overheard him, threatened to have him put before the swat solons. The General should concentrate upon some of his officials and leave Louis alone."

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287.

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 (for reasons and regardless of race or color, the amount of 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 five hundreds dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in court or to justification in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. AN OPPORTUNITY!

In eleventh-century Persia, a secret order was founded by Hassan ben Sabbah, indulging in the use of the Oriental drug hashish, and, when under its influence, in the practice of secret murder. The murderous drinker of hashish came to be called hashab in the Arabic and from that origin comes our English word assassin!

Johnston of Miles Heights village, now a part of Cleveland, was named defendant, Tuesday, in a $935 lawsuit involving a reckless driving charge in his mayor's court, fifteen months ago. Harry L. Davidson, Akron real estate man, filed the suit in the Common Pleas Court of Summit County, alleging he spent $335 in getting an appeal on which he finally was accused of driving without valid charges, made ten efforts to get a bill of exceptions from Johnston's court on which to carry up the case. Johnston served two terms as our only mayor in the county, but refused to stand as a candidate for a second re-election, last fall. Transfer or removal of Elbert C.

If Your constant, persistent, ever-fighting to get a square deal for the race places The Gazzette, in my estimation, as America's great race defender. I shall never forget how The Gazzette in its untiring efforts saw city officials and demanded that I be placed as an asphalt construction foreman at the city asphalt plant, in accordance with my civil service status. I also say, as the Hon. John P. Green so well says, The Gazzette is more than "worth its weight in gold." Thanking you kindly for your many great favors. I am Jesse Henderson.

C.)-WNU Service. ENGAL province, India, fearing extinction of its rhinoceroses, due to wholesale shooting, has made killing or injuring of these animals illegal except in cases of self-defense. Bengal, straddling the northern-most point of the Bay of Bengal, and stretching northward to the foothills of the Himalayas, owes much of its fame to an animal—the Bengal tiger which inhabits most large zoos. The province is one of the most thickly inhabited areas of the world. It is nearly equal in area to the state of Kansas and as many people live within its borders as in inhabit New York state, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Texas and Michigan. More than eighty different languages are spoken, not to mention the many dialects. The narrow northern extremity of Bengal resembles that of Idaho. Like Idaho, the province spreads out as it stretches southward. But after leaving that extremity, no one could charge Idaho with having such deformity of shape, for the border line of Bengal zigzags in all directions. Bengal's gateway is its most homely feature. The water that surrounds the coast is laden with silt, brought down from the north by the Ganges and a labyrinth of rivers and creeks that pierce the coast line. Waterlogged jungles, infested with tigers and other wild animals, lie between these channels. These wilds and the swamp lowlands immediately north of them are called the Sundarbans. When the Ganges goes on its annual rampage and overflows its banks for 200 miles from its mouth, the Sundarbans are submerged. The less flooded area is planted in rice and it is an interesting sight to see "row boat farmers" tending their submarine crops. When the water subsides, it leaves a fertile layer of earth that causes jute, rice and wheat, and many other products to thrive in this reef. Nearly all Bengal is a flat, fertile plain from the Sundarbans to the foot of the Himalayas which is reached after a day and night of rough train riding. A narrow gauge railroad is then taken to reach Bengal's roof, Darjeeling. The snake-like course of the railroad passes thousands of acres of tea plants that, from a distance, resemble fields of boxwood hedge. Some of the plants grow six feet tall in Bengal, and are stripped of their leaves five times a year. Calcutta, the capital of the province, is one of the most progressive cities of the East, with all the modern devices to handle its tremendous commerce and entertain its native and foreign population. In less than 250 years it has become the largest city in India and second only to London in the British empire. To the traveler who approaches Calcutta by water, its growth is a mystery. At the mouth of the Hooghly, the indigo blue water of the Bay of Bengal turns to a dirty brown. For much of the $8-mile trip mud flats and water-logged forests form the river-side scenery with no evidence of civilization save for the commercial craftlying the river. Only the most skilled pilot can steer a vessel up the shifty channel. When almost within sight of Calcutta, the smoke stack of a jute mill and here and there groups of native thatched huts break the monotony of the journey and then, rounding a bend, the great Indian port appears. Hindus at the Bath. Bathing ghats on both banks now are filled with Hindus. One of the popular ghats is at the botanical gardens, where grows the famous Calcutta banyan tree. It covers nearly two acres and has about 250 trunks. A short distance beyond, perspiring natives loading and unloading ocean-giving vessels solve the secret of Calcutta's development—commerce. Small boats resembling the Chinese sampans clustered about the wharves or floating leisurely to and from Howrah. Calcutta's manufacturing district on the other side of the Hooghly, handle much of the local small freight. Like most large cities, Calcutta has its slums with squalid houses of mud and thatch, and sometimes brick, bordering narrow, dirty streets and in- habited by half-starved, unkempt natives. Dahloushe square, a few blocks from the Hooghly is an attractive parkway. The post office, which faces its lake bears a tablet designating the vicinity of the famous Calcutta Black Hole episode. The Maidan, Calcutta's "Mall," with its race track, cricket fields and gardens, is the rendezvous for sport lovers and promoters. In the evening the "who's who" of Calcutta are there. Colorful Indian rajahs with their servants in native costume, wealthy natives and government officials, both British and Indian, rub elbows on the walks or swiftly pass in their foreign cars with chauffees whose costumes and uniforms represent myriad styles and colors of the East and West. Fort William occupies much of the river side of the Maidan. Nearby are the Eden gardens. In the southeast corner Queen Victoria has been memorialized by a magnificent building in Italian Renaissance. Its central dome of pure white marble came from the same quarries from which the marble for the Taj Mahal was hewn. The white marble palace of the governor of Bengal, overlooking the Maidan from the north, was the residence of the Viceroy before the capital was removed to Delhi in 1912. This and the palatial residences, clubs and public buildings along the Maidan's eastern side, gave to Calcutta the name "The City of Palaces." Durjeeling, nestling among the foothills of the Himalayas, is Bengal's summer resort. Like Simla, 700 miles farther west, and Srinagar in Kashmir, Durjeeling is a godsend to perspiring Europeans who must spend the hot period in India. But it is more than a cool retreat: it is a matchless observation post, when the clouds permit, for the mightiest mountain scenery that the world affords. Forty-five miles to the northward, across deep chasms and beyond tier after tier of foothills, rises Kinchinjunga, 28,156 feet high, buttressed by a half dozen peaks from 20,000 to 24,000 feet in altitude. Perched on a Ridge. Darjeeling stands on a sort of stage before and above which sweep the amphitheater slopes of Himalayan heights. The town is perched on and astride a steep ridge that rises about 7,000 feet from the Bengal plains. On the side toward the mountains the ridge drops away for approximately 6,000 feet, forming what might, in American terminology, be called "the Grand Canyon of the Ranjit"; but whose heavily forested slopes and tropically luxuriant floor earns in India the more poetic name of "Yale of Banjit." Darjeeling has characteristics unlike those of most towns. It can hardly be said to have streets. Most of the buildings face on paths or walks which run along the main ridge and out on to its minor spurs, or work their way by serpentine routes to other paths that cling to the steep sides of the slopes. Steps, too, serve in place of roads, connecting terraces that rise one above the other. One of the few carriage roads is a driveway that skirts the lower end of the main ridge and leads below to the suburb Lebong and its barracks for British soldiers. The villas, bungalows, shops, government buildings, hospitals, churches, schools, barracks and native huts that make up Darjeeling and its suburb form pendant communities, like giant saddle-bags thrown over the ridge. Dwellings are scattered down the slopes for a thousand feet, the ground floors of one tier, with the roofs of the next tier below. If one man ever much space in Darjeeling the rides on pony back or is carried in a litter by four servants. The center of Darjeeling is Observatory Hill, a knoll on the crest of the ridge. Topping the knoll is a Buddhist monument and surrounding it is a small forest of staffs from which prayer flags flutter their supplications. From the benches near the monument one may sit, when mist and clouds do not interfere, and take advantage of Darjeeling's best view of mighty Kinchinjunga and its fellows. But often the vigil is fruitless. It is only for relatively brief periods during the spring and early winter that one may be sure of long, uninterrupted views of the towering granite and ice walls and snowy slopes to the north.

Crisp, Sheer Frocks and Wide Brims THE FASHION WEEKLY INTERPRETING formality through means of sheerest lovely cottonis in fashion's way of doing it this summer, Designers are sparing no effort to impress upon their clientele that cottonis have gone formal. The handsomest "dress-up" gowns which will apparel society's elite this summer as shown in recent courterie collections, are being made of such naive and prettily feminine cottonis as crisp and sheer organdie, especially the embroidered types, dotted nets and volles and similar waves. Going to wear big picture brims, too! Milliners say so. Top these winsome sheer cotton frocks with fatter wide picture brims and what have you—enchanting costumes such as inspire artists to get out canvas and brush, and poets to put fashions into verse. It makes it the more interesting in that while these beguiling fashions are tuning to festive nights and formal afternoons when it comes to sports clothes and dress for the informal hours of the day, the mood of the mode changes completely in that the rule of smart tailored simplicity is being rigidly enforced. All of which goes to show that milady's wardrobe must be extremely versatile to meet the dress requirements of the 1932 summer season. A dress that bespeaks summer evenings, garden parties, moonlight dances, graduations, weddings and summer festivities in general, is shown in the foreground of the accompanying illustration. It is seductively made, in the simplest possible lines, of a MODISH CAPE-WRAP By CHEBIE NICHOLAS The new short cape wraps are fascinating. This one is of医胶 transparent velvet in bright madcap blue. The white evening dress which it contrasts so effectively is made of demi-clair crepe, which is one of the very new, very heavy semiheer weaves which lead in fashion this season. It is smooth and dull and drapes graciously in both daytime and evening modes. lovely durene-embroidered organde, with an open-work effect between, slightly starched and infinitely feminine. Here we see the squarish wide shoulder line which is characteristic of the newer models broadened by means of coy little three-inch sleeves. The camellia patterning of the organde is beautifully delineated and accomplishes a decidedly hand-embroidered look. If hand-embroidered, however, it would cost a fortune. As it is it may be bought, without bankruptcy, by the yard, while comparatively inexpensive and charming frocks made of it may be purchased where pretty ready-mades are available. Dotted organdie, red embroidered on a white background, is chosen for the other dress. By the way, you might like to know about the new organdies which are embroidered after the manner of dotted swiss. They are showing them in the newer fabric displays. It is not needed to call attention to the butterfly sleeves which give such sprightly lines to this chic model, for they are so out-of-the-ordinary they are sure to be noted at first glance. The butterfly silhouette, as it is referred to in the parlance of fashion, is very new and designers are playing it up in various ways. The wide sash of red taffeta is crossed at the back and the streamers are brought around to the front where they are tied in a big bow as you see. This model would also be effective in organdie dotted with black as the last Paris news is to the effect that black-and-white is gaining in favor for formal modes. © 1932, Western Newpaper Union. THRIFTY FASHIONS ARE NOW SMARTEST Thrifty fashions are often the smartest ones—at least that is the contention of a good many of the most important French dressmakers. Current French fashions, as illustrated by the style shows now going on in Paris, show a marked tendency toward more simple clothes and toward a general practicality. One of the fayorite examples of these new thrifty fashions is the suit whose jacket portion is a three-quarter coat. A coat of this type is considered neither an out-and-out jacket nor is it listed among the topcoats—so it results in sharing the advantages of each. STYLE NOTES STYLE NOTES High-colored buttons enliven white coats and dresses. It's the two-piece sports suit which is ultra smart. Wide wale pique is a beachwear favorite. Brown and white, also navy and white prints lead. Striped seersucker is newest material for the two-piece sports suits. Guimpe frocks are in fashion for town wear. Prints and embroideries favor the daisy motif. Belt Fastener One of the nearest tricks of the season is a belt which closes with a sliding fastener made of silver. When closed the fastener resembles an arrow as straight as Cupid's. Shirred Chiffon Shirred chiffon is back again. Jackets and bodices of the new semi-formal gowns are made entirely of shirring. BLACK VIRGIN AND CHRIST STATUES NUMEROUS IN EUROPE, ROGERS SAYS. Barcelona, Spain.—After a most interesting trip through the length and breadth of Spain and Portugal, I have arrived in this largest, busiest, and finest city in the Peninsula. What I have seen and discovered in Negro history that I had not known before, and that I believe is generally unknown in America, is even of greater importance than I had imagined. One of the important things that I had set myself to find was a statue of the Madonna and the infant Christ that would have not only the color of the African Negro but the features of one. Into Negro Origins. Most of the black Virgins and Christians which are to be found in considerable numbers in France, Spain, Italy and other European countries, have so-called Caucasian features. In one town in the Pyrenees, however, I discovered and have secured the picture of a very old statue of the Madonna and Child which I believe fully confirms my theory that the founder of Christianity was originally worshipped in Europe as what is known as a Negro today. This Madonna, of which I shall say more later, is of great importance and is called "The Queen of the Pyrenees." Among the principal cities I visited were San Sebastian, Salamanca, Burgos, Madrid, Toledo, Lisbon, Seville, Cordova, Malaga, Granada and Saragossa. I went into scores of old libraries, and I learned the grandeur that was Spain and the glory that was Portugal—these two nations, strongly mixed with Negro, that carried the torch of civilization around the globe, and were the founders of the New World. To visit Los Archivos de Indias, the Archives of the Indies, the Archives of the Indian Ocean, the documents of the founding of the colonies and towns of the two Americas is indeed a thrilling adventure. Greatest Scientist a Negro. Greatest science: Negro. Among those that I discovered were William Negro's greatest man of science was a dark Negro with wooly hair, and I saw his statue, thirty to forty feet high, standing before a university; that the private physician of a recent king of Portugal was a full-blooded African black, and learnt that his presence at a dinner, given in honor of a recent king of England, in Lisbon caused considerable embarrassment to certain of the English courtiers who did not relish his presence; that one of the leading Portuguese scholars of the Portuguese is an East African Negro and I had the pleasure of meeting him. In one Spanish city I saw white people, descendants of Negroes who pride themselves on their Negro ancestry, and maintain their traditions. At the great feast of Corpus Christi they wear, like their ancestors, a disguise that makes them look like ku klux klan, and had been doing so hundreds of years before the klan. (Happily for the matter of credulity I have secured pictures of same). In Cordova, Malaga, Granada, and other towns I saw relics of the marvelous civilization of the Moors; I heard of one American Negro, who is a mult亿 millionaire and a marquis; I saw negro bulk-fighting in action; the picture of Spain's greatest painters, a Negro, in cathedrals, churches, and museums. Mixed Love Affairs. In southern Portugal I went to the spot where modern Negro slavery began in 1442, and noticed all over Portugal and southern and eastern Spain, the Negro ancestry in the faces of a large number of the population; I heard of and had confirmation of astonishing love-affairs between wealthy white women and Negroes, and picked up a book relating the love affair of Napoleon's sister, Pauline and an African black, that is a corker. I also observed the economic and social life of the people; went into the underworlds; heard the various stories of views on the newly-founded republic; met many cane Negroes who are doing well in Spain, and others who are not; saw three comic bull-fights in Spain, and three real ones, the most dangerous game in the world; and a Portuguese bull-fight, the most thrilling and graceful form I have ever seen. These and many other things I have seen will form the subject of a series of articles that is to follow. So far as the Negro is concerned I am more convinced that history as written is a west form, and to prove that. To students in public high schools and universities I will try to give living history and geography, and to every reader not only information but entertainment as well. J. A. Rogers.

Pittsburgh Girl Pilots to Enter In Derby of National Air Races Pittsburgh Girl Pilots to Enter In Derby of National Air Races AIRCRAFT Smart and Cool For Summer THE LOVE OF THE WEEK THERE have been such charming fashion photographs coming over our desk the last few weeks. We have been able to addition to discrimination to cast aside those not to be shown. In deciding upon this apple blossom-liked frock of cool durene cotton mesh, the freshness and charm of the young woman and the decided appropriateness of the costume for her coloring is a good grooming mustache and ponies these other aspects of smartness. We went to talk to Margaret Brainard, who many of you will remember as a famous comedienne she was William Collier's leading lady in "Nothing But The Truth." since her retirement from the stage. Brainard was a great time to cosmetics and her rules for summer care of the skin are: The Truth! What would cause other people to grish their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, pile depredations upon us, revile us, abuse us, lie about us, malign us and even impugn our valor and we are not unanimously insulted. It seems impossible to establish unanimity of insult in the black race.—Chicago (Ill.) Whip. Attention! Readers! Our advertisers want your trade.

Two Pittsburgh girl airplane pilots, Helen Richey (left) and Helen MacCloskey (inset) have announced they will enter the Cord Cup race, the national transcontinental sweepstakes handicap airplane competition held in 1932 National Air Races at Cleveland, O., Aug. 27 to Sept. 5. They know a large number of other men and women pilots will be entered but they expect to land in the money. The Cord race starts Sunday, Aug. 27, a division from Los Angeles and another from Washington, D. C. The Pittsburgh girls have not announced which division they will enter. The race ends at the Cleveland airport Aug. 27, the opening day of the ten day air race program. It is expected nearly 100 pilots will enter the race. The two Pittsburgh Helens also are considering entering some of the closed course races during that period. Pool For Summer A LOU FETTA ing, drink plenty of water—if possi sible twelve glasses daily. (2) Avoid heavy makeup. "(3) Clean the face daily with a cream and during the day freshen it with a tonic or astringent which is essential and which, in addition to cleaning, take away from the pores particles of dirt which cling to them. "(4) Do not expose your face too much to the sun. It is a marvelous health-builder but too much of it does irreparable harm to the skin. "(5) Give the face a daily treatment. Don't neglect yourself in the summer. The treatment need only touch through cleaning, a quick application of skin food—left on while one is bathing—and a tonic to stimulate circulation. The whole thing need take no longer than 15 minutes." OUR LESSON We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that we will be governed by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.—George W.
