How to Learn It by Telephone in Cleveland—No Charge Except for the Phone Call—A Great Convenience.
Telephone users in the Cleveland exchange area receive the time of day by telephone now from a newly established time bureau at The Ohio Bank Telephone Colony, which not only ask the operator for the time, but should call GReenwich 1212 and listen for the time announcement, which is given by a special operator every quarter of a minute, according to E. H. Gustafson, general commercial manager of the telephone company.
"It is evident," Mr. Gustafson said, "that many persons want an arrangement that will enable them to obtain the time most quickly. We believe that by establishing a time bureau we can meet the wishes of the public without interfering with the regular service."
The only charge in connection with the new arrangement will be that for the telephone call, the same as for any other local call in the Cleveland exchange area. If a call is made from a wildside or office telephone, it will cost as one message, if from a public telephone, it will cost a nickel. The name "GReenwich" is merely that of a theoretical set up to furnish the time. When a subscriber calls GReenwich 1212, an operator in his central office routes the call over a special trunk line to the time bureau switchboard. His connection with the bureau along with those of other subscribers calling for the time remains established until the next quarter-minute time signal is given.
The bureau is located in a soundproof room in the telephone building 750 King Rd. where special equipment is installed to accommodate time calls.
the new arrangement will be that for

The ROUNDER
ON WHAT'S DOING
The Rounder's suggestions for Republican candidates for mayor, this fall, are Judge James B. Ruhl, Judge Thos. J. Kennedy, Major Berry, ex-manager of the airport; Mr. Geo. Moran, Hon. Harry L. Davis and Atty. Harold H. Burton.
As Councilmen Bundy and George how soon the Central Ave. car-riders are to be given the improvement in service promised them by the Cleveland Railway Co., five or six weeks ago. The new schedule was posted in the cars week before last and very promptly taken down, last week. This ought to be of equal concern to Councilman Lawrence O. Payne.
The Rounder, in last week's issue, overlooked the probable candidacy for municipal judge of one of our very capable and promising young attorneys in the county of Peter Built, who well known and well qualified, having had a number of years' experience as an assistant prosecuting attorney of the Indiana county in which Gary is located, as well as his years' experience in the practice of the law at the local bar.
The Rounder is informed that a separate table is provided for our employees at Lakeside Hospital. The sign, "for colored employees," that was placed over it was torn down the day it was put up. Also that separate days for "colored and white mothers" have been designated at the city's health center in the vicinity of E. 551th St. and Woodland Ave. Here are two jobs for our local Federation of Women's clubs and the local N. A. A. C. P. branch. Such segregation is increasing rapidly, these days, because our people of this community will not combat it as they should.
The following letter, in a local daily paper, recently, is so very good that The Rounder republishes it in this department with a great deal of satisfaction. We regret, more than we can express, to say that the street-car company STILL REFUSES to give the car-riders of the Central Ave. line the long promised "12 minute service." Atty. Ballard refers to in his excellent letter. A few weeks ago he posted a new schedule which provided for the service and the following week, even more promptly, took it down, and ever since have refused to move in the matter. Our councilmen, who ought to be of some service, seem perfectly helpless:
Forgotten Car-Riders.
Editor Plain Dealer—Sir: Much ado was made and heard during the recent campaign concerning the forgottoman. In that reference was contained the longing hope that one day he, too, would be remembered. In this great cosmopolitan city of ours boasting of its fine educational system, splendid churches, beautiful parks, its system of legal justice, its philanthropy, its excellent breadth of vision and fairness to all, we have in our midst the forgotten man, namely, the car-rider.
I have ridden on the Euclid, Wade Park, St. Clair, Superior cars and drivers, recently, with their passengers, comfortably in soft, cushioned-bottomed seats to the pleasant vibration of these cars and the tireless hum of their motors.
While on the other hand the car-riders on the Central and Scovil lines are rollicking along on cars with hard, unprotected seats, filthy floors, dirty window sills and windows for apparently have not seen water for weeks (And we have three councilmen.—Editor.)
A twelve-minute service is to replace the present sixteen-minute period wait between cars (on the Central Ave. line) which is fine. But how much better would this gesture have been appreciated during the winter months. Surely a little of the meager comforts of life ought not be denied the less fortunate people using both lines? A law that does not work uniformly is applicable to all citizens alike we say it is constitutional and therefore is unjust translating the above service into legal terms we cannot help but conclude that such difference of service is discriminatory and unfair. While there is a righteous anxiety

PROMISES ALL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Jersey City, N. N. J—President Franklin D. Roosevelt promised the American people "a new deal" if they would elect him President. This has been done. The deal is the next thing. Among the things that constitute this new deal, southern mobo-may, would be considered the revelation of the political corruption of the state of Louisiana, is not peculiar to it but to the "solid south." For fifty years the south has flagrantly denied our people their civil, political and human rights. It has become a habit to do so. This habit is so fixed until the south has turned upon the American people, and striving Negro rights are now having their rights denied. A just punishment.
to this breakdown of the American church.
In this "new deal," Negroes serve the right to have some kind of treaty. They no longer ask them to be treated, but demand it forms of persecution and unfair treatment. If these laws are to stop, Negroes like other people will seek a way to make them felt as well as free themselves the evil things complained of litically, this government cannot mandel the respect of the world it settles once for all that no citizens shall do another wrong to do so, will tempt to do so, will bring down the group denying the same, the tyranny of justice and the con
The U. S. Senate is investigating Louisiana's senatorial election and in this investigation a political stench has arisen that stinks to heaven, or some other place. The Senate is apparently deeply concerned because Anglo-Saxons (composite) have suffered. While other races suffered, it dismissed these sufferings without speaking of them. The fact is it condoned the disfranchisement of our voters all over the south. By its present attitude it seems to condemn the disfranchisement of white voters.
What we have said, applies to Senators of the north, east, west and south. In other words, the Senate feels that voting is "a 'white man's prerogative', but not a Negro's. Senators of the north, east, west and south are of "white" men to rule over Negroes and the unwillingness to interfere with them even though they lynch-murder and hold Negroes in peonage, expressly forbidden by the federal constitution, caused the U. S. Senate to cover its ears and eyes to the mob-law running the south. If Mr. Roosevelt attempts to give his new deal, he must tackle this un-American and uncivilized policy of the south which made America an assassine hypocrite in the eyes of nations of the world.
The American banking system broke down and the whole nation paused to repair it. The religion, government, fair-dealing and justice of America present as appalling a debacle as does the banking business. The American church is the tool of the political demagogues of the country. The American clergy, with few exceptions, does what is popular with the "powers that be in their churches and in the government." The rights of Negroes in this country do not concern many white clergymen nor their congregations. The southern white denominations feel that their heaven and church are not the heaven and church where Negroes should be considered brethren on ecclesiastical equality. President Roosevelt would be eloquent in his addresses if he should call attention
universally to remember the forgotten man, let us bring the urge to duty and fine service just a bit, nearer home and not forget these forgotten car-riders, who pay the same fare that the more favored car-riders do and should be and are entitled to the security of their city. John E. Ballard, Cleveland.

to this breakdown of the American church.
In this "new deal," Negroes reserve the right to have something to say. They no longer ask simply to be treated right, but demand that all forms of persecution and unfair dealing cease. If those in power refuse to stop, Negroes like other groups will seek a way to make themselves felt as well as free themselves from the evil things complained of. Politically, this government cannot command the respect of the world until it settles one for all that no group of citizens shall deny another group of international rights. An attempt to do so, will bring down upon the group denying the same, the heavy hand of justice and the condemnation of all right-thinking people. We are willing to aid Mr. Roosevelt in his "new deal" if he asks for me and mine what he takes for himself and his.

HITLER ANTI-JEWISH!
An Appointee Dismisses Them From Hospital; Noted Doctor Fires
Berlin, Germany. Doctor Fless. physicians and attendants in Berlin municipal hospitals were ordered discharged, last week Friday, by Federal Commissar Lippert, an appointee for Chancellor Adolf Hitler. Prof. Hermann Zondek, noted specialist on internal diseases, who treated Josef Stalin some time ago, was ousted as chief of the Urban hospital by an armed band of Nazi storm troopers. He fled from the city. The Nazi Law demonstration passed a resolution demanding that "members of foreign races" as judges, prosecutors and members of the bar. In America, this is a Ku Klux Klan slan.

Larry Gains, the Afro-Canadian heavyweight champion of the British Empire in an interview published in the London, Eng. Star, simply "skinned" W. L. (Young) Stribling, the Georgia "cracker" — pugilist whom Max Schelming whipped so thoroly here in this city, a year or so ago. The Georgia "pug" has carried his damphool southern prejudice abroad. We hope the English people will accept Gains' suggestions and act promptly. Be sure to read carefully his interview which will be found in our Prime Sport News department elsewhere in this paper.
HAROLD H. BURTON.
The election, Monday, of Attorney Harold H. Burton as president of the recently reorganized Garfield Trust Company of this city, and chairman of its committee of six which will direct the reorganization of the bank, is recognition of the outstanding ability of a young man whose rise in this community, in comparatively few years, has been so rapid as to almost be spectacular. A captain in the World War, then a member of the Ohio Legislature from this county, in rapid succession he has since functioned as law director, acting manager and acting mayor of Cleveland. Now he has been selected to lead the effort to put Cleveland's third largest bank back on its feet, in better condition than ever, and will do it! More power to you, Capt Harold H. Burton, for years a regular reader of "The Old Reliable" Gazette.
Adolf Hitler and his followers, now in control of Germany, are waging an anti-Jewish and anti-Communist campaign which is resulting in the injury of hundreds and the deaths of many of both groups. In addition, a faction of Socialists are being so mistreated. It looks very much as if that country is drifting very rapidly back to a monarchical form of government while the deposed Kaiser Wilhelm sits serenely by in his enforced haven of refuge in Doorn, Holland, more or less impatiently awaiting results. Poor bleeding Germany.
The great indignation and sympathy for the Jewish victims in Germany, being expressed in the American press, these days, by hypocritical gentle Americans who can see and hear of all kinds of outrages against Afro-Americans in the southern part of this country without shedding a tear or voicing a single protest, make a spectacle which many nations abroad will now understand better than ever before.
Monday, the daily press of the country announced that
"The state department moved, today, toward possible diplomatic exchanges with the German government over the anti-Jewish campaign of the Hitler regime. The American embassy at Berlin was instructed to make a complete report on the situation."
We do not rail against this, even the it does show an inconsistency which Hitler and his followers in Germany and other European nations will hardly fail to note and possibly refer to in their public press, because it would be the very proper thing for them to do under the circumstances. There have been too many lynchmurders of American citizens already this year, and every other year for many years, in the southern part of this country which the aforementioned hypocritical gentle Americans, including the state department,
could have voiced some protest against, and failed utterly to do so, we regret to say.
The Nazi cruelty against all peoples in Germany is an outrage that "stinks to high heaven." If the League of Nations was "worth a dime" it would put a stop to it, too.
THE WEAVER CASE.
What hurts far more than the mere loss of the Doris Weaver case is the fact that the Ohio Supreme Court's decision if the case will be cited as a precedent in all the courts of the country. The court decided two things which must be corrected in the U. S. Supreme Court, and they are: First, that Miss Weaver's separation from the white students in the Home Economics house of Ohio State University is not discrimination, because if it were not done, it would be necessary for her to have "purely social relations" with students of the various other races, and this "cannot be enforced by law," says the court. Second, that the O. S. U. officials "had full authority to prescribe the regulations" that resulted in the separation of Miss Weaver from the other students of various races in the Home Economics house.
In plain words they were within the law when they ordered the discrimination against Miss Weaver's race only. Just how Judge Florence Allen and Judge Carl V. Weygandt of Cleveland as well as the heretofore "old reliable" judges, Messrs. Jones and Mathias, could reach such a conclusion and sign such a decision is more than we can understand. The case should by all means be carried to the U. S. Supreme Court, just as soon as possible, by a jurist of U. S. Supreme Court status assisted by those of our attorneys who were interested in the case when it was before the Ohio Supreme Court, recently.

The East Tech tracksters, led by Jesse Wemes, took an overwhelming 63 to 24 victory from Elyria in a dual meet at the Tech gym, last week Friday. His leap of five feet four inches won the high jump while he won the 50-yard dash in 5.2 and won the 50-yard low hurdles in 6 seconds.
Metcalfe Equals His World Record
Hamilton, Ont.—Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette University's sprint flash, equaled the world's indoor record for the 60-yard dash, he set this winter, by running the distance in 6.1 seconds in the 91st Highlanders indoor meet, Wednesday. He posed out his season's rival, Emmett Toppino of New Orleans, in a close finish, with Pert Pearson of Hamilton, Canadian Olympic runner, third. It was Metcalfe's second victory over Toppino and Pearson in as many nights. The Marquette ace ran the 60 yards in 6.1 for the first time at South Bend, Ind., March 11.
Larry and Patsy Feature Show
Larry Johnson, veteran hefty-hitting Chicago puncher, was expected to give Patsy Perroni, Cleveland Italian heavyweight, his hardest battle when they clashed. Tuesday night at the Coliseum in the feature of an all-heavyweight show. Perroni, seeking his fourteenth consecutive victory, got it in 76 seconds of the first round before about 2,000 spectators. It looked like a "set-up," or something else, the end came so easily. He was not alone. He was the floor hardly before the echo of the first bell had faded. A terrific overhand right flopped him for five seconds. As he came up he ran into a smashing right under the heart and he went down for a count of eight. He barely managed to stagger to his pins, only to run into another beautiful right to the same spot and this time he was through. It is said a doctor's examination, made shortly after the fight, Johnson had suffered two cracked ribs on his left side from the battering he received.
Gaines "Burns" a Southern U. S. "Cracker."
London, England—Larry Gains, the colored Canadian heavyweight champion of the British Empire, has made a slamming reply to W. L. Young (the Stribling), the American boxer who adheres to his decision to draw the "color line."
"I object to an alien boxer coming to this country and dictating about whom he shall meet in the ring," said Gains to a reporter of the Star. In addition to being the holder of the Empire championship, I am a British subject; I live in Leicester, pay income tax and rates. My two uncles forgave with the Canadian forces during the war and I feel very keenly that anybody should refuse to fight me because of my color. regard Stribling's color; bar; not merely as an excuse, but as an insult to the British flag. Nobody in this country draws the color line against me.
Gains explained that his manager, Harry Levene, was carrying the matter further.
"At a time when money is tight," he observed, "it seems grossly unfair for a man who is not a Britisher to refuse to fight me the he is not averse to taking British money. Stribling is to meet Pierre Charles in Paris soon. I knocked out Charles in one round. Stribling, it is true, beat Donald McCorkindale in South Africa, but not once did he put McCorkindale on the floor and I did. We in this country have seen Stribling lose to Primo Carnara in four rounds after being down for a count of nine,

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT
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 Kentucky have also enacted 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
62728. "Mob" and "lynching" defined.
62729. "Serious injury" defined.
62730. Damages in case of assault.
62731. Damages in case of lynching.
62732. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching.
62733. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another.
62744. Limitations of action.
62824. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy.
62826. Guardian's custody, etc., fees.
62828. County's right of action against member of mob.
62829. County's right of action against another county.
62830. Non-relief from prosecution.

Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "secuous limitation" applies to this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.)
Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v 162 5.)
Section 6282. The legal representative, of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand 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 lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share, the child's share or 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 such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.)
Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such injunction, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) whereas seven months ago at the White City, I defeated Carnera decisively on points and not once was I knocked down. Stribling was knocked out by Max Shimeling in the fifteenth round in America. I beat Schimeling in two rounds. These facts prove, I think, that I am the better man. To prove my sincerity, I will fight Stribling in public or in private for 500 to 1,000 pounds a side."
Galns said that when British boxers go to the United States they have to abide by the rulings of the American authorities and adhere to the American ideas of boxing. "It is surely about time," he said, "that we in this country should tell American boxers that they cannot dictate to us how we should run our affairs. Boxing, surely, is a sport in which race, color or creed should not enter!"
Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such hurt. At such lynching the mob is deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.)
Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was constitutional negligence. The county is committed of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.)
Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.)
OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894.
The General Code of Ohio:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fines not less than fifty dollars or imprisonment not less than hundred dollars, or imprisonment 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 hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county- where such offense was committed.
This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

here and thought it was all over with me. Everybody was running for the stairs to get out. Then it was followed with a lot of other quakes, but not so serious as the first one. For two days, I was feeling shaky. We can still feel occasionally very slight shakes. Long Beach, a resort near Los Angeles, got the worst, and if it had happened earlier in the day, 1,000 school children would have been killed, for several school buildings collapsed.

THE MAN WHO DARES
"I honor the man who in the
conscientious discharge of his
duty dares to stand alone; the
world with ignorant, intoler-
ant judgment, may condemn,
the countenances of relatives
may be averted, and the hearts
of friends grow cold, but the
sense of duty done shall be
sweeter than the applause of
the world, the countenances
of relatives or the hearts of
friends."—Charles Sumner.
Cleveland, O., Aug. 25, 1932.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor, Gazette,
Dear Friend:—I have read
the latest copy of The Gazette
through and after reading it, I
can truthfully say: It is worth
its weight in gold!
I admire true manhood—a
man who, seeing injustice and
oppression, dares, within the
limits of the law, to expose it
and, if possible, smite it. You
and I have frequently, during
the fifty years since the birth
of The Gazette, been, as the
Scotch would say, like two McNells, but, when I find a man,
you, who mistrusts me,
and persistently, thru half a
century, puts his race foremost
in his life struggle, I take off
my hat to him, as being a true
friend of our class. Long life
to you and "The Old Reliable"
Gazette.
Yours for the right,
John P. Green.

Senate.)

Noted "English" Author Ridicules President Roosevelt's Greatest Hobby and Says He Will Do Nothing.
Honolulu, Hawaii—Arirving here, last week Thursday, from the Far East on his journey around the world, George Bernard Shaw, Irish philosopher, poet and author of Nations, "Roosevelt's" new deal and decreted democratic institutions generally. Sitting in the lounge of the steamship "Empress of Britain," he said Hawaiian surfboards held no attraction for him; he learned to ride them in South Africa. He laughed off "the new deal" in America, saying: "Everybody thinks President Roosevelt is going to do something. He is not going to do anything. He plausibly democratic institutions prevent it. What did Mr. Hoover do? Nothing! Yet he was a good man, with sound ideas.
"It it just happened that Mr. Roosevelt got photographed at the right moment with a baby. He got in on one of those silly landslides you are liable to get in elections. The idea of democracy is futile. Safeguards are nonsense. The function of government do not allow with liberty up to a certain point." What America needs, Shaw said, is a dictator.
