"Billie" Richardson, age 33, one of the city's so-called "Big Four" or "big shots" in the policy racket, may not have to serve a term in the Ohio Penitentiary for perjury before the grand jury, after all, it seemed Monday. The Court of Appeals having reversed the finding of the Common Pleas Court that Richardson lied when he told the grand jury that he did not know whether the gunman who fired on him some time ago was Charles Colletti, the case was called before Common Pleas Judge Alva R. Corlett for retrial, Monday. The state, through Assistant County Prosecutor Emerich B. Freed and Thomas A. Burke, Jr., submitted to the court the transcript of testimony as given at the previous trial and there was additional evidence. The Court of Appeals had held that the evidence in the trial in which Richardson was convicted was uncorroborated.

He was charged with "inciting to insurrection." His attorneys, retained by the International Labor Defense, have filed a notice of an appeal and a motion for a new trial. Afro-American exclusion from grand and petit juries in this state will be one of the main bases for the demand to have the verdict set aside, and the indictment quashed. WALTER WHITE CARTOONED His "Confidential" Letter Relative to the N. A. A. C. P. "Whitewash" of Harlem Hospital Doings New York City —An attempt of the N. A. A. C. P., to "whitewash" the charges of discrimination and segregation at Harlem hospital, was revealed with the recent publication of a confidential letter sent out by Secretary Walter White, and the appearance of an editorial in "The Crisis" defending the present regime at the hospital. As a result our people of Harlem are calling mass meetings in which the organization is bitterly denounced. The N. Y. Amsterdam News has printed on its front page a cartoon of Walter White, in overalls, generously applying whitewash to a building labeled "Harlem Hospital." WE WIN THE FIGHT! The Ohio Supreme Court Orders Ohio State University to Admit Our Co-eed to House. Columbus, O., Feb. 1.—The State Supreme Court today granted an alternative writ of mandamus directed against the board of trustees and President George W. Righlinative of Ohio State University, ordering them to admit Miss Doris Weaver of Cleveland to the home management at the university in connection with her work in home economics. The writ ordered university authorities to make all advantages, facilities and privileges of the house available to Miss Weaver. Miss Weaver, with the assistance of the Cleveland N. A.A. C. P. branch filed suit thru Atty. Chas. W. White of Cleveland, against the university, claiming she was barred from the house because of her race connection. PRESIDENT RIGHTMIRE'S Statement, Jan. 24, 1933, to The Ohio House of Representatives' Judiciary Committee Relative to the Doris Weaver Segregation Case. Columbus, O.—"I am glad to be here on this site. I notice there is a good representation of colored people present. There have been a good many things said I think I shall pass over. Quite a number of statements have been made and some questions asked or mentioned about my integrity and good faith. I shan't notice these. "It has been said that in conference with Mr. Gillespie I referred to Mr. Jones of Jackson in a way that made Mr. Gillespie believe that I would appeal to Mr. Jones for protection. 'Twas not an impression I intended to create. We talked over the whole situation. My father crossed the table and I told him I was very glad he was bringing this case to my attention as it was the first notice I had had of it; that I would get in touch with the department and see what it was. It took several days for me to get first-hand information. Mr. Gillespie left for Cleveland and let a friend call so I was afraid of saying that I was in him in Cleveland. I might say that previously I had addressed two letters to Mr. Gillespie suggesting that we talk the matter over. I also noticed that both letters got into a Cleveland paper and a part of a letter he addressed to me—not all of it. I didn't think I need enter into further correspondence. He came back the next week and the first thing I heard was of his duction of his result. There was a meeting of conference, and we have been going along thus since that time. "I would like to say to the committee and friends, colored and white, my knowledge of O. S. U. begins in 1894 when as a student I sat in class with colored boys. As a professor in the College of Law for 23 years I think not a year passed without colored boys in class, friends, personally, that is my relation to the colored people—very friendly—always friendly—there was no reason why I should have been otherwise. As far as the institution is concerned I have known the policies of the institution all of these years. I know that there is no policy of discriminating in any respect at the institution. I know that the colored student has been admired. They have been no questions and no reasons for questions. They have had the run of the laboratory, of the library, and when they made the Ohio Union for men, the colored men came in, along with the white. Colored women are admitted to Pomerene hall. They go and feel free, and to my knowledge nobody ever raises the question about the rights of the colored boy and girl on the ground. They have been the matriator for the girls. The colored girls were admitted with the classes and the same thing was in practice in the pool for men. Other cases of discrimination I know nothing about. I know there is no policy—no policy expressed, implied, or practice of discrimination in any way against the colored boy and girl. There have been some cases brought up that I know nothing about, the cases personally. They have never been such cases. There have been such cases I think I would have heard about them. I do not want it to appear that I question the information, but I myself know nothing about it. "We come to the matter of the Home Management House. Previous to the erection of this house, used for the first time last year, there were two places where practice work might be taken: one in Campbell hall, an apartment, and one adjoining the University grounds. Nothing SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS THE FIRST WORLD WAR THE TUSKEGEE CHOIR On Top of Al. Smith's Empire State Building, "The Tallest In the World," He Claims. New York City.—The portrait above shows the Tuskegee choir, directed by Wm. L. Dawson and recording for Pathe News on the terrace of the $6th floor of the Empire State Building here, last Friday week. Radio City and upper Manhattan can be seen in the background. The choir sang "Oh What a Beautiful City," arranged by Mr. Dawson and dedicated to "Roxy. Miss Thela Armstrong led the singing which was for former G. Alfred Smith, particularly the choir was rushed to Radio City Music hall for the show of the day. The climax of the choir's stay in this great city, after successfully completing its four-week engagement at Radio City, week before last, will be its concert in Carnegie hall, the evening of Feb. 8, under the auspices of the Artists Bureau of the Nation- came to my attention about these. In one case at least a colored student had used one of these Home Management houses for a period of time, but there had been no other. We have some alternative courses. We have had a number of cases where white girls (I do not like to use the terms "white" and "colored" do not deal with racial issues), didn't do the work in the Home Management House. Some have worked in the library. There are a number of equivalent courses that white girls have followed from time to time. They have graduated. They have received the same diploma. So that there is this practice of having some do this and some do that. Last spring we came to the residence of the Home Management House. It has two apartments, well fitted up. The apartments have accommodations for six girls in each and one room for the supervisor. The girls are assigned for periods of six weeks and generally six on each side, or twelve girls at one time. Twenty-four girls in a quarter or possibly one hundred in the year. But all the girls in the course cannot get in the House. The department of Home Economics they said to Miss Weaver in the autumn. "We can give you one side of the House," and Miss Weaver replied that she didn't want to go in there alone. This house is so managed that the six girls do the buying, cooking, dining, socializing, together—a common enterprise. If I remember there are about three rooms in which the six girls live together during the matter we came up as to whether the matter came up as to intimate way, if provision is made for easy, the colored people have a good deal of race pride and perhaps colored people will object living intimately in that way. Knowing the feeling in Ohio, can an administrator take the burden of establishing this relationship—colored and white girls living in this more or less family way? In my theory, both the colored and the non-colored my acquaintances I know of none who would advocate that kind of close relationship among the races. Always one group or the other will criticize the actions. Therefore there is some matter of procedure involved here by the University and there is no doubt it is very ready to do this: You MAY TAKE ONE SIDE OF THE HOUSE, WE WILL USE THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HOUSE. It isn't discriminating against you. There is the same identical treatment. I am not discriminating in if there is identical facilities and equipment. We are equal, yes, but when it comes to the matter of living together I think you people have a right to object to that and I rather think you would. We are very willing to operate on those conditions which to my mind is not discrimination. "I am sorry this case has come up, but when you are dealing with a number of people, they are inevitable. As an administrator at the University I think that if identical conditions of study are pursued in the two apartments there should be no such cases as this. In introducing these facts about the policy of the University I would say, there is no 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 compiled with any will imminent later establishment of the NEWWIEST AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans.

Our old friend, Bill Robinson, comes back to Loew's State today, Jan. 28). Bill, the originator of tap-dancing, has seen his style become a vogue around the world, and yet, he remains the best of them all. Still looks like a youngerster. But he is exactly a year younger than I am. So there, if you are good at mathematics, jigsaw puzzles and riddles. Bill continues to talk exactly as he did away back in Richmond, Va., where he was born. He is extremely neat in appearance, never drinks, never smokes, and he sports a 10-carat diamond ring and a 7-carat diamond stick pin. Has another extravagance: he's always giving away suits of clothes. He has 'em and knows how to dress him, and he gives away more suits than any other actor buys. In his pocket there is a diamond-studded case in which he carries credentials as an honorary member of the Grand Street Boys. He tells you "only Cardinal Hayes of New York and I have been honored in this way." Marty Forkins, husband of Rae Samuels, has been Bill manager for 30 years. When he was a child, he worked as a week. Now his income is reckoned at about $3,000 a week. With him travels Mrs. Robinson. No children. No automobiles. Bill says it cost him about $1,000 because of his winking and hanging around a drug store in Chicago, where his wife was a cashier—until she'd pay attention to him an finally consent to the ceremony at the altar. He bought a dress for $4,750 and likes to present to her diamonds the size of hazel nuts. She's very modest and never wears but one diamond at a time.—Cleveland Daily News. Bill Robinson is still dazzling New York's Harlem with his extravagant gestures. The champion tap dancer now at the State, bought his wife a $1,000 diamond bracelet for her recent birthday, then topped it off by buying her an expensive Italian limousine that can be seen two blocks away.

PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. $25,000 in Ohio. 75,000 in Cleveland. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1933. That is a very serious charge brot against Walter White, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., and Wm. E. Du- Bois, editor of the Crisis, which will be found in a New York City letter elsewhere in this paper. We sin- cerely trust that both will be able to disprove it and promptly too. --- Just how determined prejudiced southerners are to crush any effort upon the part of any of our people and others to secure certain rights as citizens, freely exercised by all Americans except Afro-Americans, is well illustrated in the treatment of Angelo Herndon referred to in the Atlanta, Ga., letter elsewhere in this paper. A GREAT VICTORY. The Ohio Supreme Court decision, Wednesday, in the Doris Weaver-Ohio State University case is a grand victory that should prove encouraging to our people not only in Ohio but throut the country. It shows very plainly what we can do if we will only get together and fight for our rights and privileges as we should. Representative Chester K. Gillespie of this city, who led the fight, our Ohio newspapers and the N. A. A. C. P., as well as all others who interested themselves properly in the matter, are entitled to great credit. WILL HE DO IT? President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt is being urged to appoint Prof. G. R. Bridgeforth of Tennessee A. & I. State College as an assistant Secretary of Agriculture. It is said that the Professor is the only Afro-American farmer in public life who possesses the necessary combination of adequate theoretical training, abundant practical experience, and a wise and sympathetic understanding of "the problems of our occupational group." He was born and reared on a farm in Limestone County, Ala. He completed his professional course in Massachusetts Agricultural College, Amherst, receiving a B.S. degree in 1901. Will Roosevelt dare appoint a member of the race to the position? Prof. Bridgeforth is exceptionally well qualified for the place. PRIZE FIGHTING BARBARIC The prize fighting of today is brutal, barbaric, almost as bad as professional wrestling. We can see two men fighting it out to a finish when good cause has been given by either or both, but when two men step into the prize ring, shake hands and start beating one another, seeking a "knock-out." for MONEY, it is a most brutal and barbaric exhibition that should not be tolerated in any community. That it is permitted and encouraged is only concrete evidence of a very thin civilization veneer. Monday night in Public Hall, this city, Willie Jones of Akron struck Sammy Slaughter of Terre Haute, Ind., an almost inexecutable second, successive blow to the jaw, knocking him out a second time, so completely, after he had been counted out by the referee, that it was an extremely difficult task, which took an unusual amount of time, to bring about his recovery. Even then the 21 year old lad stumbled and fell going down the stairs on leaving the place, it was reported by the local daily press. Braral, barbaric! THE PRESIDENT WRONG! President George W. Rightmire of Ohio State University, in speaking before the House of Representatives judiciary committee, last week Tuesday, said that the management of the university is "very ready" to say to its "colored" students "you may take one side of the (Home Management) House. We (meaning the university officials) will set aside the other side of the House" for whites. And followed this with the statement: "It isn't discriminating against you," having reference to our people. Right there is where he is wrong, for it IS discrimination which the laws of the state forbid, and is not "the same identical treatment" for colored and white because among the latter are representatives of a number of races while all of our students only are segregated in "one side of the House." The president is wrong again when he says any people, white or colored, "have a right to object to living together" in a public institution financed by the taxpayers of the state of Ohio. They have no more right, under the laws of this state, to "object" than President Rightmire and the board of trustees of the institution have to take the position they do. It is a very thin color or racial line he is drawing but still one forbidden by the laws of Ohio and if he persists in maintaining the stand, it will force the matter into the courts of the state for settlement, and he will learn that it is illegal and insulting discrimination, and the Ohio University cannot be operated under any such conditions. His untenable position in the matter makes it perfectly clear now that the controversy will have to be settled in the courts. As the administrator of the university, even at this late date, we advise him to call in the Miss Lindquist and Mrs. Correll of the Home Management House and the Dept. of Economics, respectively, and learn of the color-line they have been drawing against our students, namely the Miss Wilhelmina Styles, now a graduate of O. S. U. and Miss Doris Weaver, still a student of the institution. The insulting mistreatment does not only "look like discrimination" but is the real thing, whether he knows it or not. Any students of that public institution, who do not wish to "live together" in its Home Management House or any other department, where such is required by the rules of the university, do not have to remain as students. Furthermore, judging from the protest against such discrimination signed by ten student organizations of Ohio State University in behalf of Miss Weaver, we do not believe that there would be any objection such as the president refers to. NOTE: Since the foregoing was written, the state supreme court has rendered a decision which is a perfect endorsement of the above reader. See Columbus, O. letter else where in this paper. Editor.

Thus, and therefore—having looked over all of the high spots of mid-level weights in the last two or three years—I'm asserting that Gorilla Jones is far and away the "tops."

Another thing in connection with that affair that "grids" is the fact that Sammy Slaughter's manager (white) stacked him up against "Gorilla" Jones, champion of the middleweight class. Sammy, brilliant young fighter, one year of age, coming apparently too fast for the boxing team is sent to certain defeat because he had won two or three successive fights with second-rate pugs at best, anything but the equals or near equals of Jones. Now that the two things, treated in the preceding paragraphs, are out of my system, I feel better and yet regret greatly to say that altho Sammy made a good showing for seven rounds, it was clear from the very start that he was no master of the experienced fighter, "Gorilla" Jones of Akron, de luxe fighter of the middleweight class.

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 laws that are copies of our mob-violence or anti-lynching law, which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other 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.

Referee La-Branche's stepping aside, Monday night, led to a tough toum Sammy and permitting Jones to give Slaughter another "right" which was even worse than the first one, simply because Slaughter staggered to his feet, was another cause for invidious criticism and disgust.

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 dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be 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, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (33 v. 162 5.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C.

To take off fat—take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen Sats in a glass of hot water in the morning before breakfast—one bottle that lasts 4 weeks costs but a few cents at any drugstore in America.

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 assasin!

Last week, Mr. Maurice Maschke, head of the local Republican organization, gave it another and an even better one. Republican leaders will do well to examine the example thus set by Messrs. Morgan and Maschke. Nothing could be more helpful to the Republican cause just at this time. Senator John P. Green, early last week, received another very fine letter from his long-time friend, Mr. Robert F. Paine of California, editor-meritus of the Cleveland Daily Press and the San Francisco Daily News. It is one of the most pleasing and thoroughly satisfactory communications that he has read in many years, but so personal that the Senator will not permit its publication, I regret to say. Many of Senator Green's friends and admirers are urging him to be a candidate for a judgeship, this fall. The dean of the local bar would sure make a strong candidate. The Housewives Leagues in the vicinity of E. 79th and E. 85th Sts. could direct their attention, with much profit to our people in this community, to the chain-stores in that vicinity that refuse to give employment to any of our people regardless of the fact that from 50 to 70 women were furnished by Afro-Americans. This same suggestion is good for our Federation of Women's club and all our other male and mixed organizations in the East End. There are many of these stores located on Cedar, Central and Quincy Aves., where our people are most numerously populated. The fact that Dr. L. L. Rodgers, local Democratic "Negro" leader, had been given back his job as physician in health district No. 2 of the city at $220 a month, last October, was revealed. Monday, by a reporter for the Cleveland Daily News, The appointment had been kept secret. Rodgers was not suspended from the job last May because it was charged that prostitutes and bootleggers were promised "protection" if they paid fees as members of the Twelfth Ward Democratic club, of which Dr. Rodgers was president, as stated In The News, but because he threatened to expose the rotten political and immoral conditions existing in the city, something the state had the "nerve" to do because it sure would cost him his job. Another thing, Atty. Geo. C. Lacy, Democratic leader of Ward 17, who is on the city payroll as a bath-attendant at $80 a month, is only one of at least three who are enjoying such an experience. According to current political morals, the mayor should be about "Negro" Democratic leaders in that section of the city who are also enjoying sinecures. HEAR!

BEAUTIFUL GIFTS. Last week Friday afternoon, Supt. G. N. Curtice of the Woodland-E. 55th Market, called the editor on the 'phone and told him that Mr. Ludolf Mueller, proprietor of the deluxe restaurant-stand in the market, wanted to know if he, the editor, as usual, was coming to the market the following morning (Saturday, his birthday) for breakfast, and was answered in the affirmative. On his arrival about 9:15 a.m., last Saturday, Mr. Mueller presented the editor, for Mr. Curtice, a large, beautiful cake, lettered in two colors as follows: "Happy birthday, H. C. Smith with his age in figures underneath the name, and invited the lamb-chop breakfast which he had prepared for him on order of Mr. Curtice. To say that the editor was not only surprised but delighted by these two material evidences of good will and friendship is putting it entirely too mildly. Furthermore it was a perfect surprise, a most agreeable one indeed! To express full appreciation was a difficult task. Mr. and Mrs. Louia S. Jones of Drexel Ave., who were visiting realtives, Mr. and Mrs. Enos Streets, of Lancaster, did not forget that last Saturday was the editor's birthday, but sent him a beautiful and useful neck scarf from that city which was received Wednesday morning, the time of their return to Cleveland.

Compensation for Long Imprisonment in Death Cell at Ohio Penitentiary. Columbus, O. — The county affairs committee of the House of Representatives, on Wednesday, voted unanimously to recommend passage of Hon. Chester K. Gillespie's bill to pay Joseph Weaver of Cleveland $15,000 as compensation for having been imprisoned 25 months, 22 of which were in the death house at Ohio penitentiary. Weaver, charged with first degree murder in the death of a flat's watchman in Cleveland, several years ago, was released, April 5, 1929, when Alex Maynor confessed the crime and exonerated Weaver. Attys, Nathan E. Cook and Wm. F. Marsteller of Cleveland, who fought for two years for Weaver's freedom, argued for the compensation bill before the House committee, Wednesday.

Cleveland, Jan. 31, 1933. Don't Throw Away Your Copy of The GAZETTE After Reading It But Give it to a Friend or an Acquaintance who might Subscribe After Seeing It Styria Scene In Graz, Styria. Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. THE farm problem is not confined to America. Recently farmers of Styria, quiet, picturesque, Austrian valley, were unable to pay taxes and refused to allow auctioneers on their property. Tax collectors had hoped to satisfy the government's claims by selling farm stock and equipment. Styria is both the Shenandoah valley and the Birmingham of Austria. In an Alpine country whose borders touch no salt water, Austria's city dwellers take to the grassy slopes of her tall mountains, or to rural villages tucked away in smiling villages, when their annual playtime rolls around. Hiking along winding mountain paths; wearing deerskin or chamois shorts, bobbed animal boots, green-trimmed jackets, and hats plumed with a trophy of some other year's outing; hunting the cock-of-the-wood or other game; taking part in the rural festivals of the village, where young and old dome the costume of their home town and join in the folk songs and dances; and mountain-climbing to dizzy heights on Austria's Alpine sentinels, are some of the attractions which crowd the spotless Styrian hostelries with city families holiday bent. Hunting the chamois is the favorite sport for city dwelling Austrian and German visitors. Living in mountain fastnesses difficult of approach, the chamois are perhaps the most agile of all Europe's Alpine animals. Their pliant skin furnished the original leather of that name, and the stiff black hairs tipped with creamy yellow, which grow on the back of the animal's neck, are worn in the hat as a badge of hunting prowess. Quail, cock-of-the-wood, pheasant, partridge, and many other game birds are found in Styria and neighboring Tyrol. Tail feathers from the cock-of-the-wood also are valued as hat plumes to supplement Austrian costumes, and silver pins which hold the feathers in place are huntsmen's heirlooms, often handed down for generations. Steiermark, as the Austrians call this little province astride the Niederauern, straggling eastern outpost of Europe's mighty Alpine range, supplies 99 per cent of the Republic's iron needs; and, by harnessing the latent water power in its mountain streams, it provides a substitute for the missing link in Austria's chain of raw materials—coal deposits which the latter lost after the reorganization of the Austro-Hungarian empire. From the Vordernberg-Elsenerz range, in the north of Styria, comes the bulk of the raw material for the iron works of Graz, Leoben, and Donwitz. Since the outcropping ore is of such high iron content, it is mined from the surface, not through deep shafts and chambers as is the general practice in other parts of the world. While the mines have been worked for more than twelve centuries and were once considered as the largest known deposits, their total production for all time is less than a third of the world's annual output today. In the iron-mountain regions especially, where arsenic is a by-product of iron smelting, some peasants eat this violent poison. It is taken in small doses, which are gradually increased as the system becomes used to it, until it may be taken dally, without visible ill effect, in a quantity sufficient to kill an average person. The arsenic is supposed to clear the complexion, increase the appetite, and improve breathing, especially for mountain climbers. Horse handlers sometimes put small quantities in a horse's food or in his mouth to make his coat sleek and glossy and improve his wind on mountain slopes. Nat- Iron and Water Power. urally this practice is frowned upon and discouraged by physicians. The murmuring Mur winds across the length and breadth of Styria. Its upper reaches, especially near the neck of Austria's "panhandle," where it is fed by glacial brooks, look on a map or to the high-altitude airman like the backbone of some gigantic fish. Along its course and slender "fishbone" tributaries cluster the villages and principal cities, which seem to grow in size as the river wildens, as in the case of Murau and Teufenbach, the industrial city of Leoben, and farther south, just before the river leaves Austria, Graz, the nation's second largest city and Styria's official seat of government. Straddling the Mur, Graz seems a veritable combination of Venice and Athens in miniature. Its ancient houses rise abruptly from the river's edge, suggesting the Grand canal of the romantic Italian city; while its Schlossberg and square clock tower, perched high over the city's head, dominate the skyline as the Acropolis does at Athens. Yet, unlike either of these, Graz is primarily a manufacturing city. Here are made bicycles, wagons, machinery, Styrian champagne and beer, linen, leather goods, and iron and steel products; and here work and live many of those vacationers who frequent the country villages of the Mur valley in summer and take delight in "going native" by dousing rural costumes. In Graz there is a museum in which many a youngster would delight to linger on a rainy afternoon. Within the landeszenghaus, or arsenal, there is preserved in perfect condition enough medieval armor to outfit completely an army of 14,000 men. Spears, swords, helmets, chain mall, battle-axes, complete suits of armor—in fact, all of the equipment a well-appointed knight could desire—are kept ready to hand. But, strange as it may seem, not a single suit of armor in the museum would fit a six-footer of today, nor could an average modern man wield with ease the cumbersome weapons of that bygone age. Austrian mercenaries wore some of this armor, and much of it saw service against the Turk when Graz was one of Europe's bulwarks against Moslem invaders. The unchanging charm of Styria lies in her small rural villages, each with its steeled church or turrented castle perched high on some rocky crag. Nestling in the lonely valleys at the feet of giant sentinels of the eastern Alps, these little towns are a world to themselves. Dairying and Farming. While dairying has been the principal industry of rural Styria for many generations, farming has been encouraged, because Austria today has aImport large quantities of food. Agricultural schools are scattered throughout the province. Timber covers over half of Styria's area and gives work to many lumbermen, who make telegraph poles and railroad ties for export. Across the rich bottom lands stretch rows of strange haystacks with cross-arms which resemble grotesque scarecrows. As soon as the snow leaves, in early spring, the dairy herds are turned into these fields. Then, as the weather becomes warmer and the snow recedes, the cattle are driven to higher pastures. The meadows are then used to grow hay and farm crops. Boys and girls, usually children of the owners, tend the herds, milk the cows, make cheese, and in summer live in log cabins or ilmys chalets provided for them in mountain retreats. The milk, cheese, and butter are brought down daily, and in more favored villages are sent to the local dairy, a model of cleanliness and modern appliances. Towns Along the Mur Dairying and Farming. CHE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1933. RETURN TO CLASSIC STYLES FOR SPRING Beige Is Favorite With Important Designers. One of the surprises of the advance spring fashion collections just launched in Paris is the quantity of beige used by all important designers. Happily for the majority of women, it is an indication to the return of classic styles. The designers themselves, as well as the women they dress, are apparently fed up with the brilliant odd colors of the past few seasons and are returning to the old reliables—the colors which, after all, make them look their best. The new beige that Paris uses for 1933 is a handsome color. It has none of the weak-kneed listlessness of the beige which American women were formerly obliged to wear whenever they wanted some easy-to-wear light color. Probably its good looks may be largely credited to the fact that it is really not a true beige at all, but has plenty of gray and plenty of good, sturdy brown in its makeup. It is a tone that is becoming to even the sallowest skin. 1 A characteristic feature of the smartest suit is that so many of them are made of patterned clothes rather than plain. Some are interwoven with dots as is the case of the material which styles the suit pictured. Also checks, plaids and stripes were never smarter. The tie of ermelinelovevt which distinguishes the suit illustrated exploits the idea of having a conspicuously large and casual bow at the neckline. It is said that the bows which trim the latest costumes are assuming immense proportions. Old Dress Transformed by Simple Little Take four yards of pink satin, eight inches wide in the center and gradually tapering to four at each end, the edges hand-rolled and whipped. Now lay it aside a moment. Take out that black satin dinner gown you said was hopeless yesterday because the right shoulder was awful where so many corsages had been pinned to it, and there wasn't any use trying to do anything with it. Put it on and, with your own hands, work a simple little trick in "Magic." Take the pink satin now and measuring it in half, put it over your shoulders lightly, the widest part, which is the direct center, falling loosely to the depth of the back decolletage where you clip it with a strass pin; bring the ends across the front, fuch effect, cross them and—now you can do one of two things. Either the rest in a bow at the back, letting the ends fall to where they will, or bring them around to the right side and make a soft loop bow with the ends falling in unequal lengths. Now take a lock! FLASHES FROM PARIS Tiny fabric turbans with tulle brims are tres chic. Dresses that sparkle are in favor for evening. Flowers in a tailored way is promise for hats. Sharp contrast is cue to new color schemes. The prospect is for tip-tilted a la Watteau millinery. Newest bags are circular—about seven inches in diameter. Three-quarter utility capes of interesting woolens are in fashion. Brilliant clips remain an outstanding jewelry item. Leather Belts Appear on Many of the Fur Leather belts appear on many of the new fur coats this season. Some of them blend with the color of the coat while others offer a brilliant contrast. A brown shaved lamb sports mode is worn with a 3-inch wide brown leather belt, while a leopard coat designed on straight lines is accented by a belt of bright red patent leather. SHIRTWAIST GOWNS BACK IN FASHION Given Distinctly New Flavor in 1933 Models. Just by way of change, fashion has looked to England and found there several things it amuses her to take up—tailored things, of course, of the swanky, swagger type that English women love and wear so well. In the first glimpses obtained of southern collections, one is impressed by the number of so-called shirtwaist dresses shown. Here one gets another intimation that England has supped the theme. When these too severe English clothes have passed through the hands of American creators, they are pleasantly softened and give a distinctly new flavor to the 1933 sports models. Moreover, everything points to the avoidance of any radical changes being visited upon customers this season. The dress silhouette is still slender, even molding to the figure as far up as the bustline, sometimes without a belt in front. CAPE SILHOUETTE By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE FASHION WEEKLY The cape silhouette still holds good and what's more it bids fair to project its grace and charm into spring and summer styling. One of the outstanding features of the evening mode as is at this very moment, is the bordering of the cape with fur which is "worth a king's ransom." The magsnificent gown in the picture is of peach-colored crinkly-surfaced velvet with a bordering of precious blue fox on the cape. It is interesting to note that many of the new and lovely lace gowns designed for resort wear have matching capes. Costumes for Snow and BEACH ARE Flattering Winter sports generally bring to the imagination visions of snowdrifts with cold leccles dropping down the back, and when the Paris dressmakers show their winter sports collections they feature skiing trousers and layer after layer of woolens for outdoor wear. Schlaparelli, on the other hand, doesn't like snow sports personally, so her winter sports collection is framed for both snow and sand. She shows the ski trousers because there are many smart women who do ski, but she shows also the beach pajamas because there are perhaps more winter sportswomen who do their daily dozen on a warm beach and call that winter sport. Strange are the beach pajamas, originally suggested perhaps by some old-fashioned overalls, that have been transformed by madame's imagination into something quite different that is both gay and chic. Made of heavy cotton crepon, the trousers are only moderately wide and have a plain top in front with narrow straps descending under the waist in the back. STYLE NOTES The suit is back for spring, and no mistake. Gray or string color, your choice, says fashion. In latest terms it's "cruise" fashions for resort wear. Big bows, the bigger the better, adorn the mode. They call them "jungle prints," so exotic and colorful are certain of the new printed silks and chiffons. Return of taffeta is noted for frocks, wraps, sashes and bows. Watch for pleats and pleats. They are on the way. Unfurred swagger coats place the emphasis on the swanky woolens of which they are made. Spring Will Show Return to Cloches, Is Prophecy A return to cloches or to small-brimmed shapes, for early spring, is prophesied by Paris milliners. The tendency promises for these brims to be mounted high on the crown at front, but dipping over the eyes, and they will still be worn at a right dipping angle, showing more of the left side of the head, and turned up at back. Crowns will still be shallow. py of The uaintance w A STRONG PROTEST Relative to Privileges to be Accordeed Certain Students at Ohio State University.—The Inter- Racial Council. Columbus, O., Jan. 16, 1933. The Ohio State University Inter-Racial Council takes occasion to point at the following situation relative to the admittance of Miss Doris Weaver, a senior student in the College of Agriculture, to the Home Management House which the University maintains as a training center for the course in Household Management. Miss Weaver registered in the Laboratory for the winter quarter of the present school year. In this course, "students live for one half of a quarter in the Home Management House and carry the responsibility of home-making under conditions approximately those of a modern home." (Quotation from Catalogue of the College of Agriculture 1932-1933, pg. 60.) Reservations for residence are made in University requirements, Miss Weaver applied for admission last winter quarter. She received a letter of acceptance on Sept. 26, 1932. On Oct. 4, 1932, she was asked to return this communication to the office of the Department of Home Economics. These are the facts of the case. Evidently it was found out that Miss Weaver was of African descent, her acceptance to the Home Management House was therefore cancelled. Last year Miss Wilhelmina Styles was refused admittance for the same reason. No special requirements as to scholarship, or personality are known to exist as criteria of admittance; except certain prerequisite courses which Miss Weaver has taken. From the University of Michigan, Miss admittance of Miss Weaver into the Home Management House is a case of flagent race discrimination by whomever passes upon such applicants. In calling attention to this situation the purpose of the Inter-Racial Council is to PROTEST, that at a University supported by tax funds of the American citizens of Ohio pay their revenue, discrimination should be permitted to prevail. If anywhere, on the campus of this University race prejudice of any kind, whether under open or tacit sanction, ought not exist. Wherefore the undersigned student organizations, as members of the Inter-Racial Council, wish to approve and protest upon the action in the case of Miss Doris Weaver.

This startling fact, revealing many innocent purchasers to be innocent, unwitting dupes of keen criminal 34865 brains was graphically brought out here last week when Paul Rabkin, master mind of an international smuggling ring was again caught in the widespread net of justice by vigilant U.S. Customs men working under Customs Agent John W.

Once before, Rabkin has run afoul of the law. In 1929 cases of watches and watch movements seized on the dock by Customs men were estimated to be worth $138.1 million and authorized duty on these cases $2,804.65.

GAZETT ho might Su Absent-Minded Patrons Put Telephone to Sleep ABSENT mindedness, commonly considered a trait of professors and those who deal with infinity, the theory of relativity and other matters of higher calculation, has invaded the ranks of telephone subscribers. This habit of mental vacation has jumped the bounds of scholastic circles and is penetrating into the homes of every type of citizen, according to officials of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company. During the past few months, there has been a marked increase in the number of subscribers who forget to replace the receivers on the hook after completing a telephone conversation. A neighbor drops in or the kettle in the kitchen boils over and the receiver is left lying beside the telephone while callers vainly try to get an answer. If it is a party line, this forgetfulness not only prevents the guilty party from receiving incoming calls, but also it cuts off ton C.

In the meantime, according to movements into the United States, additional smuggling watches How the smuggling ring's activities were uncovered reads like a chapter from an imaginative detective best seller. Disguised as truck drivers, as stevedores, as smugglers themselves, secret agents of the U.S. government, asserted that the ring was importing cases of stationery from Switzerland, each case containing about 150 boxes. About 15 or 20 boxes of Swiss watch movements were concealed in the center of each case, the boxes containing the watch movements being identical in appearance to those containing stationery. In spite of the ingenuity of this case the U. S. Customs agents soon were hot on the trail and once again Rabkin was brought before justice. Prosecuted by Assistant U. E After R bscribe After service for all other subscribers on the line. When the receiver is left off the hook for any length of time, operators or attendants in dial exchanges judge that the line is out of order. They report it to the testman, who frequently must make a special trip to the home of the subscriber to replace the receiver. "Receiver forgetfulness" is particularly prevalent in residences equipped with extension telephones, Ohio Bell officials say. If the call is answered at the main telephone and the conversation carried on at the extension, the main telephone receiver is quite often left reposing where it was originally placed when another member of the family was called to the extension. Protruding books or other obstacles often prevent the receiver from resting on the hook, thus causing the line to become "out of order" without the subscriber knowing it.

Knox on January 25th and their removal from the scene of smuggling is now assured for some time. According to Assistant U. S. Attorney Sylvester, additional smuggling watch movements were discovered in bales of rabbit fur imported from abroad and many other ingenious plots for the smuggling of watch movements were unearthed. Purchasing a standard, well known brand of watch from a legitimate jeweler, according to authorities, is the one way to assure that the movements of that watch are authentic, and that the country, and that the purchaser has not been duped by the ring. The investigation of the Rabkin smuggling ring, according to the district attorneys, is by no means at an end, and the agents who are working on this matter will proceed against the different jewelers and watch importers who were getting watches into the United States illegally through Paul Rabkin.
