The ROUNDER
ON WHAT'S DOING
Our people should continue to remind our members of the City Council that the Cleveland Railway Co. is still refusing the Central Ave. carline the improvement, from a 16 minute to a 12-minute line, promised many weeks ago as the result of a resolution introduced by Councilman Clayborne George.
Mayor Ray T. Miller's city government economies talk, Sunday afternoon week, at St. James' Forum stirred up a MESS at last Sunday afternoon's meeting of the Forum, the outstanding features of which were the rough treatment the pastor received from the large audience and the "panicking" the Mayor received for this "panicking" is not a "worker" to what the chief executive of the city of Cleveland is scheduled to receive, at this fall's election, from Congressman Martin L. Sweeney (Dem.), the Republican organization, both Republicans and Democrats.
As a matter of factness, The Rounder wishes to say that Arthur Johnston, ex-mayor of Miles Heights village, in an interview with a representative of The Gazette, the first of the week, vehemently denied that he was or is "one of Councilman Leroy Bundy's lieutenants." He also said that his trip to Columbus with Bundy, last year, during the state primary campaign, was in no way connected with a "deal." Brother Johnston might also explain to the local Republican organization his presence as a speaker at the recent meeting, of the Independent Voters' league, in the interest of Arthur C. Clark's independent candidacy for the City Council against Councilman Herman Finkle of the 12th ward.
The Republican party of the city of Cleveland and county of Cuyahoga, in defeat, "is crossing a stream." Therefore, it would be positively silly for it to "swap horses" at such a time. The charge that its leader, Mr. Maurice Maschke, is responsible for its recent defeat in both city and county is ridiculous and one that has been urged, particularly in recent months, by "sore" Republicans and the Democrats, both individuals and newspapers, for the sole purpose of deposing the leader of the party in this city and county. For further disorganizing it, Skilled leadership superseded the result of his twenty-five years' experience at the head of the local organization is needed more for this fall's campaign than in many years past. If we are going to win in the city election at that time, the party must have the benefit of his experience and direction. The Democrats know that to depose him at this time would create a condition in the Republican party of this city that would positively insure the re-election of Mayor Ray T. Miller and that is why all this noise about new leadership in the Democratic candidacies of Mayor Miller and Congressman Martin Sweeney, bitter political enemies, all the Republicans of the community have to do is to present a solid front, with one candidate, to regain control of
MARTIN LOST AGAIN!
This Time His Wife's $25,000 Damage Suit Against The Gazette and The Riehl Printing Co.-Suit Pending for Over Two Years.
After a three-day trial, last week Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in Judge John P. Dempsey's common pleas court, Mary Riehl (alleged suit for $25,000 damages against the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, and John J. Riehl, proprietor of the Riehl Printing Co., which does the mechanical work of The Gazette. This case, like the one her husband, Atty Alex. H. Martin lost, several weeks ago, in Judge Geo. P. Baer's common pleas court, was also instituted by Martin in 1930, nearly three years ago. The editor was represented by Senator John P. Grassi and Atty Frank G. Carpenter of 1806 Standard Bank Bldg., as in the Alex. H. Martin case, several weeks ago. Mr. Riehl was represented by Atty Morton Brook-

A highlight of the three-day trial was the wordy Wednesday afternoon, beaten by Mr. for sometime, which lasted for sometime and was won by a large margin by Mr. Carey, one of our local progressive young law students. He sure made a splendid witness as did Mr. Cox also. The attorneys in the case, with the exception of Mr. Brockman who yielded his time to Messrs. Green and Carpenter, were given twenty minutes each in which to make their closing appeals to the jury. Former State Senator Green was as usual at his

Always a fine talker and a splendid speaker, the dean of the local bar was really most eloquent. At its close a number in the court-rour congratulated him warmly on his exceptionally fine effort. Atty. Frank G. Carpenter followed the Senator with a clear legal discussion of the defendant's side of the case that grew into impassioned eloquence with perforations that were undoubtedly most telling indeed. Mr. Carpenter is a fine lawyer. The jury, which included eight women, reported its unanimous decision in less than twenty-five minutes. Judge John P. Dempsey was always fairness itself to both sides. He is a fine jurist.

AS THE ALABAMA JUDGE UPHOLDS THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY'S CLAIM OF WHOLESALE JURY DISCRIMINATION!
Ruby Bates (White), Important Witness, Spirited Away—Defense Attorney Leibowitz Making a Game Fight for the Boy-Victims —Jury White.
(Special to The Gazette)
Decatur, Ala.—Circuit Judge Horton held that the defense in the "Scottboro" trial had made out a prima facie case in racial discrimination in the operation of the Alabama jury system in this, Morgan county. He laid upon the state the burden of proof that Negroes were not excluded from juries because of their color. Attorney General Knight introduced evidence in an effort to show that the color-line was not drawn when jury rolls were made up. A joke! Haywood Patterson was the first, of the seven Scottboro boy-victims, to be called, since the U. S. supreme court ruled that the jury was not for Ruby Bates (white), missing witness, was on when the trial started, last week. The boys were charged with attacking Victoria Price and the Bates girl, both of Huntsville, aboard a freight train in Jackson County on March 25, 1931. Patterson entered a plea of not guilty. If Ruby Bates cannot be found, the state will offer her testimony from the previous trial. The defense has a letter from her, secured a few months ago, repudiating that testimony and clearing the boy-victims of Victoria Price who brot here, last week, from her home in Huntsville.
Samuel C. Liebowitz of New York, chief of defense counsel, retained by the International Labor Defense, had 200 Morgan County Negroes, among them doctors, lawyers and a college professor, to sustain his motion to quash the jury jury because no Negroes were on the list from which the 150 names were drawn. The big red book, in which names of prospective jurymen are kept, was brought into court as defense counsel fought to quash the venire drawn for the trial of Patterson, whose home is in Chattanooga, Penn. Attorneys said it probably was the first time that a jury roll, a secret record under Alabama statutes, had been brot into court as evidence. Atty. Liebowitz asked for it to prove that it contained no names of Negroes, which violated Constitutional right of the defendant, by the fourteenth amendment to the federal Constitution. J. A. Tidwell, president of the jury board, testified he could not say whether the names were those of "white, black or yellow." Another joke!
MAYOR MILLER PANNED
At St. James' Forum, Sunday After noon, Because of His Low Light Rate Claim—A Real Hot Time
Last Sunday afternoon's meeting of St. James' Forum was a hot one. Former City Manager Daniel E. Morgan, who was scheduled as the speaker of the day, came very near not being heard as a result of a rumpus over statements made to the Forum by Mayor Ray T. Miller, the Sunday previous. John Cobbs, Frank Hawkins and others sure "threw a monkey wrench into the (Forum) machinery" by showing that the Mayor was not correct in his main electric-light-rate statements to the effect that Cleveland had seconded votes in the country. They showed that just the opposite was true, that Cleveland really was paying the second highest rate in the country. The pastor tried hard to successfully dispute the Cobbs-Hawkins statements but only succeeded in stirring up a real demonstration upon the part of the audience which was in sympathy with the Cobbs-Hawkins' statements. At one time, Rev. D. O. Walker's voice was drowned out by the objectors in the audience, and the chairman, who had no gavel, was helpless. Meantime, Mr. Morgan and his talk on "This Depression was made in the 1920s by a bob. But in finally did he get doing, he commended President Roosevelt upon his banking program, after tracing the course of the depression from the time of the stock crash in 1922. Morgan looked with some distrust, however, on the President's farm relief program, as a way out of the depression, and said Congress had looked askance at a sales tax in the last session, and the farm relief program was an out-and-out attempt to control prices. The pastor announced his Sunday afternoon city manager and present councilman, Wm. R. Hopkins, would be the speaker and discuss "Utilities."

JUDGE UPHOLDS THE DE-
Y'S CLAIM OF WHOLE-
DISCRIMINATION!
Important Witness, Spirited
Corney Leibowitz Making
for the Boy-Victims
ry White.
The new trials, of the boys, ordered by the U. S. Supreme Court, were transferred here from Jackson County, Ala., after the court had set aside their death sentences, last year, After 12 Negroes had testified that they never had heard of members of the race serving on juries in Alabama, Judge James E. Horton, presiding, told the defense he had heard of of "that line of testimony." Last Friday night, twelve Morgan County men (white) were impaneled as the jury and were placed in charge of bailiffs for the week-end, as taking of testimony was not to begin until the jurymen are from Decatur and three are farmers. Qualifying of the jury started immediately after Judge Horton had denied a motion to quash the venire because no Negroes appeared on it or on the jury roll from which the venire was drawn. Testimony opened, Monday morning.
Rumors of possible mob action, for which officers said they found no basis, Wednesday, led Judge Horton to issue a stern warning against attempts at violence. He said the National Guardsmen would be ordered to shoot to kill should a mob form and threaten Patterson or any of the boy-victims. The warning was followed by a second attack on a New York, signed by the secretary of the I. L. D. protesting an "attempted lynching." Judge Horton raised his normally quiet voice to a pitch, that carried all thru the court room, to warn the "crackers" "you've got to kill these guards before you'll get the prisoners." The jury was out of the court room at the time. The address was the only interruption in the rapid progress of the defense in seeking to establish the innocence of Heytter, a Patterson who took the stand Wednesday, and he attacked Mrs. Price, and to declare that he had not even seen any of the white girls who were also "dead-heading" on the freight train. Patterson, Eugene Williams and Andy Wright, also under indictment, all described the fight in a car in which five white "bums" were forced from the train near Stevenson, Ala. It was the complaint of these boys that the attack took place at Paint Rock and halt the train. The girls were then found on the train with two white boys and forced by police to accuse the boy-victims.

Judging from the reports sent out from Decatur, Ala., last and this week, it begins to look very much as if the cases of the Scottsboro boy-victims will go to the U. S. Supreme Court a second time, because the presiding judge of the Decatur court apparently is ignoring their constitutional right to have the race represented on the jury in the pending case.

The legal committee of the N. A. A. C. P., N. Y. City, is studying the Ohio Supreme court decision in the Doris Weaver-Ohib State University case to see if a successful appeal for another hearing is possible, and if not, it is considering the advisability of starting new action. The committee appreciates the fact that the decision is and will always be most harmful to our people unless wiped out and therefore it must not under any circumstances be allowed to stand.
"POOR WHITE CHILDREN."
State Senator D. H. DeArmond's bill, No. 213, which was passed by the Senate on March 20 by a vote of 32 to 0, makes provision for "poor white children." Lord, have mercy! And this is in Ohio. Whither are we drifting?
There are but thirty-two members of the Ohio State Senate, sixteen Republicans and sixteen Democrats, every one of whom must have voted for the DeArmond bill. The county of Cuyahoga in which is located this city, Cleveland, has the largest delegation in the State Senate, the members of which are Jos N. Ackerman, L. L. Marshall, W. H. Annat, Marvin C. Harrison, Harold G. Mosier and John F. Smolka. Ackerman and Marshall are Republicans, the other four are Democrats, and DeArmond of Hamilton is president pro tem of the Senate. Those of our people in this community who helped to elect Senators Ackerman and Marshall and any of the four Democratic senators from this county ought to get in touch with them just as soon as possible and find out why they voted for this "poor white children" bill.
In closing a letter, under date March 29, 1933, the Hon. Chester K. Gillespie, our member of the State Assembly, called the attention of the editor of The Gazette to the DeArmond bill, No. 213, and also wrote: "I think we will have little difficulty in the House of Representatives in striking out the objectionable part of the bill."
Let us hope so! Meantime let every loyal member of the race in the state of Ohio get in touch with their member or members of the lower house of the State Assembly and insist that that tool expression, "poor white children," be eliminated promptly, from Senate bill, No. 213. Wonder where Senator DeArmond came from and how long he has been in the state of Ohio?
GEORGE AND MARSHALL
Councilman Clayborne George introduced an ordinance at Monday's meeting of City Council calling for an amendment to the city charter abolishing the run-off primary in the mayorality and council elections saying "that primary elections are costly and additional tax burden on the people, and no benefit to candidates." Also that "candidates have the expense of a double campaign." Regardless of the foregoing, primary elections are too important to the people for George's ordinance ever to get very far. If a majority of the council approves George's ordinance it will have to be submitted to a popular vote before becoming effective. And right there is where it would meet its Waterloo—be killed.
In line with the foregoing is Council President John D. Marshall's pro-
posal to amend the city charter so as to provide for eleven members of the City Council, all elected at large and none from wards. This is the scheme that was resorted to in Cincinnati under its charter with the vain hope that it would keep the various classes or races in the community from being directly represented by one of their own in City Council. It worked "well" for a few years but fell down, last year, when our people of that city, after repeated attempts, succeeded in electing a member of the race. Councilman Frank Hall. Like "The Blossom Triplets," he doesn't measure up fully but may be better than no representation at all.
NO LIBEL; NO SLANDER;
Now that the two "Martin" suits against The Gazette and others have been tried in the common pleas court of this city and county and lost. The Gazette feels free to say that their charges of libel or slander were without foundation in fact for the very good reason that The Gazette has never made any such attack upon either Alex. H. Martin or his wife, Mrs. Mary B. Martin. Furthermore, never was any cause for the creation or harboring of malice upon the part of this publication (or any one connected with it in any way) against Mr. and Mrs. Martin as far as The Gazette and its editor are concerned. Both of the publications to which they objected were purely political and not personal in any sense, nor were they intended to be. Mr. Martin, as a candidate repeatedly for judge, and Mrs. Martin, a member of the local school board, were active and still are in the politics of this community and therefore were open to political criticism such as appeared in the two articles in The Gazette they objected to but never asked any correction of. The long drawn out effort in both cases to make the opposite appear true was climaxed in each case by the prompt action of the juries, one of which took less than an hour to reach a conclusion in our favor and the other, that of last week, less than a half hour. For all of which we are very grateful, of course. For more than fifty years we have published "The Old Reliable" Gazette every week on time, and never in all of that long period of time has this paper or its editor been convicted of libeling or slandering anybody, in spite of the repeated efforts, of members of the race only, to do so. This in the face of the fact, as every will admit who is in a position to know, that we, The Gazette and its editor, have in season and out been aggressively loyal and always faithful, and shall ever continue so.

With the phenomenal Jesse Owens competing in but one event, the applause of the exceptionally large crowd went in the main, to Jesse's teammate, Dave Albrighton. Albrighton, state scholar, jumped into the air in every branch of athletics from football to boxing, worked under wraps in the high jump but easily won by clearing the bar at 5 feet 10 inches. He defeated Kenneth Seitz, state hurdle champion, in the 120-yard hurdles but finished second to the West Tech ace in the low hurdles. Then Dave finished second in the broad jump, which gave him individual scoring honors. Owens' lone appearance was in the 100-yard dash and he walked away from his field to win off by himself in 10.3 seconds. Jess and Dave are credits to the race.
The Truth!
What would cause other people to gnash 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.
CHARACTER!
Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a ripier growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For fifty years The Gazette, under its present management, has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser. TOP

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT
OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION
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 uphold the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have for decades used the violence or violence of mob-violence as are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching bills, 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. County's right of action against member of mob.
6288. County's right of action against another county.
6289. Non-relief from prosecution.

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, execute, for惩罚, applicable to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than 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 what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.
The General Code of Ohio:

THE MAN WHO DARES
“I honor the man who In the
conscientious discharge of his
duty dares to stand alone; the
world with tgnorant, intoler-
ant jJadgment, may condema,
the countenances of relatives
may be averted, and the hearts
of friends grow cold, but the
sense of duty done shall be
aweeter than the applause of
the world, the coumtenances
of relatives er the hearts of
friends.”—Charles Sumner.
“WORTH ITS
WEIGHT IN GOLD"!
; 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, T
ean truthfully say: It is worth
its weight in gold!
1 admire true manhood—a
/ man who, seeing injustice and
‘oppression, dares, within the
Iimits 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 Mc-
Neils, but, when I find a man,
auch ‘as you, who consistently,
and persistently, thra half a
century, puts his race foremost
in his life struggle, I take off
my hat to bim, as being a true
friend of our class. Long life
to you and “The Old Reliable”
Gazette.
Yours for-the right.

Making Fish Tasty
«eFPROM the way our family en-
joys fish and sea food dishes
of all kinds one would think we
lived on the very shores of New
England instead of 1. iles from even
a lake or brook,” laughed Mother
Briggs as she passed a plate for ar
other serving of shrimp and
spinach.
“[ have a faint suspicion,” her son
spoke up, “that the reason we are
all such fish fans is simply because
Mother has so many good ideas
about cooking it.”
Try this recipe of Mother Briggs’
and you'll probably agree.

1 Tsp. butter
1 tsp. salt
1/6tsp. black pepper

2 eggs
3 cups cream sauce

1'to 2 cups whole canned shrimps
Chop spinach fine and add grated
onion which has been browned in
butter. Season with salt, black
pepper. paprika and add the well-
beaten egg yolks. Mix the spinach
with one and one-half cups of
¢ream sauce and fold in the well-
beaten egg whites, Place in a but-
tered ring mold and dust with bread
crumbs. Place in a pan of hot water
and Lake in a moderate oven (350°
F.) for twenty minutes. Loosen the
spinech by pressing from the side
of the platter and fill the center
with shrimps after placing on a hot
platter, Heat the shrimps with the
Fest of the white sauce, Garnish
with strips of pimento or slices of

‘The first requisite, of course, is a
good cup of coffee. Good coffee is not a
matter of chance and those who believe
that a mediocre coffee, even though
well made, can give the maximum
amount of flavor are mistaken. All
the better coffees are made up of differ-
ent types of coffees, often from several
different countries. When you drink a
Tichly flavored cup of coffee the chances
are that it contains a liberal amount of

Peru’s Capital
Gets New Dress
Lima, Ancient City of the
* Pizarros, Is Transformed
Into Modern Metropolis.
(Prepared by National Geographic Society.
‘Washington, D. C.)--WNU Bervice.
EMOLISHING here, building
there; installing modern water
: and sewerage systems; tearing
up rough, ageworn cobble
stones, putting down smooth modern
eonerete and asphalt in their stead;
‘opening up new highways both to the
‘mountains and the sea; and develop-
Ing motor routes to the outlying re-
gions of the plain: thus the makers of
‘New Lima are transforming the Per-
‘avian capital, city of the Pizarros.
‘The older’ portion of the city, as
well as the newer region which cir-
cumseribes It, ts shuring In the mod-
ernization, ‘True the older section 1s
and must remain an area of one-way
streets, for its thoroughfares are so
narrow that even street cars must
observe the one-way law. Likewise, the
sidewalks are so lacking in elbow
oom that only two people can pass
‘one another at a time, and the one
on the outside must keep a close
watch lest he be struck by a passing
trolley.
Old and new fight for supremacy.
The blueneeked turkey buzzards have
lost their role as the oficix! seaven-
gers; the oxart has given place
Jargely to the motor truck; the old
barouche has abandoned the streets
to the modern automobile; and. the
patient, panniered donkey is making
his last stand.
Even Pizarro's stern old palace ts
feeling the urge toward moderniza-
tion, In days gone by, there was no
street in Lima that had a single name
throughout its length. Bach block had
{ts own particular designation, The
two streets that lend from the Plaza
San Martin to the National Palsce
fare six blocks long. Each possessed
six different names, one for each
block.
‘The municipal authorities wanted to
ehange all this and gave each street
@ single designation for its entire
Tength. ‘The one they called the Giron
de Ia Union and the other the Giron
Carabaya.
But the populace would have none
of it. The man who did business on
the northwest side of the Plaza de
Armas still wanted to have his store

‘on Escribanos, and the one who held
forth of the next block still insisted
hhe was doing business on Mereaderes,
and they continue to do so, Conse-
quently the Giron de 1a Union Is swal-
Towed up by the several calles whieh
‘compose It.
‘These may be named without mod-
en-lay rhyme or reason, and they
certainly are without alphabetical or
other indication of their sequences;
but the people cling to them, despite
whatever confusion It costs the post
office, however much it may perplex
the visitor, and whatever harvest it
may bring the taxi drivers.
How the System Works.
Many interesting stories are told
Mustrating how this mysterious sys-
tem works, One concerns a stranger
‘who hailed @ taxi in Calle La Merced
‘and asked the chauffeur to drive him
to “Baquijano veinte cinco.” ‘The
driver did not bat an eye, but drove
Uke Jehu up Jesus Nazareno, skidded
‘on two wheels into Gfron Carabaya,
raced around Plaza San Martin, and
whirled up through Boza, landing his
shaken passenger at the address giv-
n—on the same street, but simply
in the next block from where he
started!
* The name Mercaderas tells us of
the day when that block was the Wall
Street of Lima and Eseribanos or
the public letter writers who were
sheltered under the portals on the
‘west side of the Plaza, Calle Mantas
proclaims the square where the ladies
‘of Peru's golden past “spent their hus-
bands’ substance in riotous purchase
of shawis, homespuns, Indian textiles,
‘and lingerie.”
‘The history of Lima’s past is writ-
ten in her streets, in names that the
municipality long has wanted to wipe
out in favor of through designations
and numbered biocks. But the people
of the city cling to their streets with
‘a devotion that will not permit con-
yenience to triumph over romantle
“tes with the past.
In wandering about the old city, one

Island of Sark
Is Feudal State
Once Haunt of Pirates, Now
a Peaceful Place With
Ancient Customs.

‘Washington, D.C.) —WNU service.
HEN the Dame of Sark re-
cently went shopping in Lon-
don, the event was news in
at least two continents; for
La Dame De Sark is the first lady of
the only purely feudal state remaining
in the world, the island of Sark in the
English channel,
‘Sark ts the fourth largest of the
Channel islands. It lies 70 miles
south of England and 22 miles from
the coast of France, It is three and
half miles long and one and a halt
miles wide; and yet, because of its
numerous bays and coves, it has 35
miles of coast. It Is the highest land
in the Channel islands.
‘The cliffs, rising on all sides almost
perpendicularly, are covered with {0-
humerable varieties of rock plants and
flowers, while below are sandy bays
and wonderful caves, whose sea-tewn
walls are covered with seaweeds and
sea anemones of every color of the
rainbow. On the beaches may be found
semiprecious stones, such as ame:
thysts, cats-eyes, and moonstones. The
island is not without minerals; at one
time mines were worked which pro-
duced copper, silver, antimony, and
galena.
‘The Interior of the island ts undu-
lating, with valleys full of wild tlow-
ees, and in the spring the whole is
covered with a blaze of golden gorse,
blue bells, and primroses. No veno-
mous beasts live in Sark, not even
a tond! .
On landing at the Sark harbor,
which is one of the smallest in the
world, the visitor finds himself en-
tirely' surrounded by steep cliffs, and
the only means of access to the island
from there is by a road passing
through a tunnel 200 feet long, pierced
In the cli, and thence by a steep,
winding road which leads to the cen-
ter of the island, where there are a
few small shops and four hotels.
‘The highway continues to La Cou-
pee, where the island is divided into
two parts, Great Sark and Little Sark,
foined by a huge natural causeway of
rock nearly 300 feet high and 415 feet
Jong, across which runs a road just
wide enough for one cart and horse

to cross at a time. On one side of
this causeway is a sheer cliff; on the
other a sloping way down to beautiful
sands. In spite of its minute size,
Sark has a history of no little inter-
est, as its written records begin in A.
D. 565, and there is ample evidence
‘of occupation in the Stone age. In
the Sixth century Saint Magioire,
bishop of Dol, in Brittany, established
‘a monastery here, the ruins of which,
ineluding an old wall and two chapels,
stand just beside the Dame's house,
Here an order of 62 monks flourished
until 1412, when they were withdrawn
to the Abbey of Montebourg, in
France,
‘Once Pirate Haunt.
Years rolled on and Sark became
the haunt of pirates, sald to be from
Scotland, who were a constant menace
to shipping in the channel and against
whom expeditions from England were
sent out, ‘The island was cleared of
their presence, but ruin was left in
thelr wake. It was occupied by the
French some time early in the Six-
teenth century, and it was wrested from
them by a ruse, the details of which
were recorded by Sir Walter Ralelgh
himself, who was governor of Jersey
some fifty years later, as follows:
‘A Flemish vessel arrived off the
coast, and the sailors pretended that
thelr captain was dead and asked
leave to bring his body ashore for
burial. On permission being granted,
they carried the coffin up the hill to
the little church of Saint Magioire,
and there, closing the door, they opened
the coffin, which was full of arms,
turned on the French garrison and
surprised them, killing some and tak-
ing the rest prisoners.
Soon after this the island was again
deserted, until from the island of Jer-
: sey arose a man who was finally to
establish the future constitution of
‘Sark. This was Sir Heller de Car-
teret, the fifty-eighth seigneur of Saint-
Quen, in Jersey, to whom, in 1565,
Queen Flizabeth granted the island

This dainty little frock is an un-
usually pretty style for the flower girl
who expects to play an important role
in a spring wedding. It can easily be
made at home at little expense of or-
gandie, silk monsseline, chiffon or flat
crepe. The arrangement of the pleat
ing Is very effective and quite along
entirely new lines. In Paris every-
thing that can be finely knife-pleated
is pleated, in the styling of fashions
for grown-ups as well as for children.

with the white blood of his grand-
father and father.
‘This same leader, living as he does
in the deep South, attends interracial
meetings, rides to these meetings in
“Jim-crow” elevators in the South,
sits in “Jim-crow” sections of the
rooms, eats at ‘‘jim-crow” tables in
“jim-crow” restaurants, rides “Jim-
crow” trains and street-cars, and
does not dare enter a first class hotel
for a night’s lodging. He has done
this for years, and will continue to
do this because to him the fight for
‘4 complete abolishment of these evils
is beneath his dignity. He is inter-
ested in the greater issues of inter-
marriage and of lynchings. He goes
hig way serenely happy and content,
asking nothing but that he be given
a national ovation as a hero and a
leader. He speaks to white audi-
ences in the North and tells them
how we “are conquering” the demon
of race hate in the South. In the
North he talks of great issues of “hu-
man brotherhood” and of the general
welfare of man. But he never speaks
lof the murder and the pillage and the
strife and confusion going on about
him, He never tells his hearers of
the North that he wants his people
set free from proseription and from
slavery. He says nothing of his wo-
men serving as concubines for white
masters who prate daily of “the sanc-
tity of womanhood.” He says noth-
ing of the debauchery of his young
girls by white men and the state of
moral depravity into which this de-
bauchery has thrown them. He says
nothing of the mental anguish and
physical slavery imposed upon his
men and women thruout the South.
|He says nothing of the segregated
|school—the money taken from black
toil-worn hands to pay for institu-
tions of learning from which he and
ep children are barred.
Oh, there are hundreds of things
he coltld mention to prove that he is
sincerely interested in the welfare of
his people and, thra them, the gen-
eral welfare of the world. But he
doesn’t speak of these things. He
speaks in platitudes and in aphor-
isms, He talks of world peace and
of international problems. He talks
xt freedom in the midst of slavery.
He speaks of justice to the peasant,
the serf and the coolie in China, but
forgets that injustice surrounds him
In his native state, He is a mission-
ary to the world for world peace
when he knows that there is no peace

‘The black race in America, in spite
‘of all protestations to the contrary,
is still a leaderless race. In spite of
all the talk about leadership—all the
jockeying for positions at the top of
the ladder—in spite of all the shout-
ing and all the tumult, the sad truth
remains that 12,000,000 Americans,
cast by arbitrary laws and social tra-
ditions into the same valley of racial
hatreds and animosities, are without
a Moses to lead them to the top of
the hill and to safety.
We sadly come to this conclusion
after reading a speech by a national
“leader” of the race in which he
made the statement that “We Ne-
groes do not want to marry white
people, We are content. to live
among ourselves and lead our own
lives nour own way.” This leader
said a great many more things along
the same line, but why go into them?
All of us have heard that kind of
chatter before and we know what it
means. We know that it means that
the person speaking is saying to
white people what he thinks they
want him to say. He is following the
same line followed by so many other
leaders for so many years. We know
that he is involved in one way or an-
other with some social movement
that depends upon the support of
white people fdr its existence, We
know, finally, that he is not nearly
as interested in the welfare of the
race as he Is In the welfare of that
particular movement in which he is
interested. How can this individual
speak for the race? How ean he lead
any group from darkness of poverty,
superstition and ignorance to a post-
tion of self-respect, self-reliance, an
independence of spirit and of mind
when he is so far out of tune with the
things which make forgthe progress
of any people?
After all, of what importance is it
to the great movement for real citi-
zonship whether we are interested in
‘Intermarriage or not? Men and wo-
men mate and marry for individual
reasons. ‘They have done this since
men and women have been together.
Neither race, religion nor creed has
ever proved a definite barrier to this
natural law of mating where two in-
dividuals meet and decide to mate,
Knowing this, and knowing that the
state of our minds as a xroup will
have nothing to do with the ultimate
question of marriage, we see such
statements as the above one, coming
from a national figure, as silly and
vidicnious: feeed an this’ Seater’

sentiments would be unimportant if
they were alone. But they are not
cnthey are legion. Everywhere we
turn we run into them—petty, self-
inflated children with their childish
prattle! They live within their hor-
izons of pettiness and strive to fill
the boots of greatness. They know
nothing of the world because they
have not bothered to travel and
learn. ‘They know not what real
freedom means because they have
never experienced it. They have
drawn their conclusions of the world
and world affairs from within the
narrow confines of their “jim-crow”
lives. ‘They have never seen such
countries as France, Brazil, Argenti-
na, therefore they have no concep-
tion as to how free men and women
of all races live and act together.
They speak of manhood—but the
word means nothing to them!
‘Yet they pose as our leaders. They
presume to speak for us. They get
the ear of the world and fill it with
their ideas of what we do or do not
want. Is there any wonder that we
flounder about in our efforts to get
in step with the forward march of
the world? We need men—real men
—courageous men—honest men—
men of vision. We need men who
havo traveled, and who can tell us
from experience and contrast the vi-
clousness of segregation and preju-
dice, We need Ieaders and we need
them badly.—Chicago Defender.
