TWO MORE SUCCESSSES For State Representative Chester K Gillen he won Wins Third Annual Relays Wilberforce, Q. — Last week Thursday afternoon, the State Senate passed the Wilberforce (State Department) teachers' retirement bill (mentioned in a recent issue of The Gazette) by a vote of 22 to 0. This bill received the unanimous vote of both branches of the State Assembly, and it was not only member of that august body, Representative Chester K. Gillespie of Cleveland who, as a member of the state's legislative body, seems to know "what it is all about." Mr. Gillespie also saw it, to the same day, that a bill passed in the State Senate, several weeks ago, in which he signed a bill that seriously (discriminating) was so amended by the House of Representatives as to eliminate the word. This was the result of a unanimous vote, too. Representative Gillespie's activity and success as a legislator is sure making Cleveland's inactive colored councilmen, Messrs. Payne Bundy and George the Blossom of the State Senate (daily) appo Wilberforce University athletes won the third annual collegiate relays held here, last Saturday, and sponsored by the Midwestern Athletic Association with which five of our schools are affiliated.

A ON WHAT'S DOING Things political are sure hot in wards 11 and 18, made so by our candidates for the City Council. The Civil Service Commission has fixed its junior examiner, Geo. W. Brown's salary at $2,145.12, the same as that of Jas. J. Brown (white), its senior examiner. The latter has served the commission nine years and the former three years. This is a decided reduction in both cases, possibly really more than 25 per cent. Walter R. McCornack, local architect, head of a "slum clearance" rehousing project known as Cleveland Homes, Inc., has announced that the land in the area bounded by Cedar and Central Aves, extending from E. 22d to E. 36th St, is what they have their eyes on now; that it is only one of several areas they have in mind; also that his company has the right to court, the sale of any land in these areas they desire. This will practically be confiscation of privately owned property which the people who own land in the so-called slum areas should begin to pay attention to at once. McCornack's company, recently "chartered for slum clearance in the city," intends to bring about "auring in the occupancy of the district (Washington) for the vernern housing for lower (poorer) income groups of people. It freely and publically admits that the lowest (poorest) income groups can only be provided such housing with the aid of philanthropy. This would necessarily remove our people as residents of that ward and elsewhere in the third district. The fatal mistake of the company is its figuring on too low a price for the housing and wishes to practically confiscate, in Ward 11 and the district, for its "modern housing" project, "with parks," etc. The silly claim of a shortage in housing, shown in the Real Property Inventory, issued Thursday, is made perfectly clear by the thousands of empty houses and rooms for rent throughout the city, a very natural result of the economic depression. We meet our councillor, The Blossom Triple, in New York, and Bundy), when the Cleveland City Council adopted that resolution requesting the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to use all reasonable haste in approving applications for loans made for the purpose of embarking upon projects for slum clearance and the providing of housing for the low income-groups? The council has issued a list which includes many of our people who are renters, are not provided for in the racketeering scheme of private individuals to use public money to promote and "put it over." And yet, "The Triplets" never uttered one word in protest when this resolution was adopted by City Council, a few weeks ago. Lord, have mercy! What the schemers are after is to chase our people out of the city, and on the West and E. 36th St. on the East; on the North by Cedar Ave. and on the South by Scovill Ave. Pay some attention to this matter, look into it carefully and see if The Rounder is not right. They want to force us out of the East approach to the new Juvenile Court building and St. Vincent's ("Charity") hospital. The schemers secured the enactment, this winter, by the State Assembly of a new county, and the emergency relief and construction act" under which they can practically confiscate (in the courts) property they want. Councilman George was the speaker at St. James Forum, Sunday afternoon. His subject was "The Value of Law Observance." Safety Director E. E. Adams found the officer guilty who recently shot Eddie Appling, age 14; suspended him from duty in the detective bureau, put him back on the street as patrolman and took his days-off away from him for six months, but restored the officer's pay for the time he had previously been suspended. May 15, Councilman George, as attorney at law, entered suit against the officer, Edmund L. Allen, for $2,500 damages. The Empire Savings & Loan Co has announced that it "will pay such interest on savings deposits, as is earned, up to three per cent." SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS SHATTERS WORLD RECORD IN THE TWO HUNDRED TWENTY-YARD DASH AND TIES THE "100" IN OHIO STADIUM AT COLUMBUS. The East Tech Wonder Hurtles Furlong in 20.8 and the Century in 9.6—Also Breaks the Record in the Broad Jump. Columbus, O.—In the preliminary events of the annual state interscholastic meet, last week Friday, Jesse Owens of Cleveland East Tech tied the world interscholastic record of 9.6 in his heat of the 100-yard dash. Two watches caught him at 9.5 but three others clocked him at a tenth of a second slower. Jesse was faster than he ever had been before and won the admiration of the more than 1,000 spectators. He had equalled the world's scholastic 100-yard dash record. Jess also created a new world 220-yard dash record of 20.8 seconds. He was no less than 20 yards ahead of his closest opponent at the finish. Thus did Jess crack the international and state scholastic record of 21.1 seconds established by Don Bennett (white) on this same course as a member of the Toledo Libbey team in 1928. Both of Jess' performances will be recognized as official state records, because conditions were almost perfect. They make one of the finest qualifying showings ever made in the state event by representatives of northeastern Ohio. In the 100-yard dash, Jesse owens shattered the mark held jointly by himself and George Simpson and of the second time in a month equalled the national record held by a California youth named Draper in the Bay League games at Los Angeles, last spring. Last Saturday with the greatest display of individual brilliance in the 30-year history of the event, Jesse broke the world's scholastic broad-jump record, tied the world 220 and 100-yard dash records and brot his 880-yard relay team a new state mark. In all this the indefcribable marvel contributed 19% points as East Tech High scored 31 points to win for the second straight year the state Class A team champion, the spectators scarefully realized that anyone else was on the field. In one event, the 220, Owens did not hit his peak of last week Friday, when he dashed the furlong in the preliminaries in 20.8 seconds for a world mark. He atoned for this by running what undoubtedly is the greatest race of his incredulous career in the 100, then sent the fans jabbering to themselves about his feats in the other two events. Owens had to run his greatest race, in the 100, and Sam Stoller (white) of Cincinnati Hughes, who has threatened him in the last two years during which time he has brot East Tech nine individual state titles. Stoller is the boy who last summer beat Don Bennett of Ohio State in an open race at Cincinnati. In breaking the national interscholastic record in the broad-jump, Jess leaped 24 feet 3% inches. Besides breaking the national record, he shattered his own previous record of 23 feet 11% inches which he set, last year. The national record of 24 feet 1½ inches of jump by L. Schirmerl (white) of San Antonio at Austin, Texas, in June, 1931. In his third attempt at the jump, last Saturday, Jess leaped 24 feet 9 inches, but the mark was not allowed because he fouled on the take-off. Owens Going to Chicago. Owens Going to Chicago. Jesse Owens and Dave Albottton, East Tech High school, obtained permission to compete in the national interscholastic meet at Chicago, June 16 and 17. High school principals in session Wednesday night, voted unanimously to suspend the rule against Cleveland senate school athletes competing outside the state. Coach Ed Well of East Tech immediately announced that Owens would be entered in the 100 and 220-yard dashes and running broad jump, while britton and high jump and high hurdles. Owens is invited to win first in all three events and, if weather conditions are favorable, he will have a good chance of cracking his own world's scholastic records, inasmuch as competition will be much keener than he experienced at Columbus last week.

Tommy Hudson, local Golden Gloves featherweight champion, made his professional debut when he faced Mike Tucker in a six-round preliminary to the Jimmy-Vaughn-Eddie Hornsby Central Airlines, Wednesday night. Ward Wins the Century; Evanston, Ill. — Jack Keller (white), brilliant hurdler from Ohio State U., flashed over the 120-yard high hurdles in 14.1 seconds to better the official world record by 1.1-0 of a second in the Western Conference championships at Dyche Stadium here last Saturday, Michigan, with the 196-pound R Jesse Owens. Afro-American giant, Willis Ward, leading the attack with an indivi- dual 19-pointer in 19 of 19, amassed 60% markers to retain its title as 10,000 spectators looked on. This was the Wolverines' thirteenth Big Ten championship. Ward, Michigan's all-around star, interrupted his high jump to win the 100-yard dash in 9.6 seconds, a tenth of a second slower than the conference record held by another Wolverine At- lanta-Denver. Eddie Tolan, the doublе sprint winner in the 1932 Olympics. Ward started slowly but workеd up a great rush to beat Hellmich (white), of Illinois, by a step and a half. Ward won the high jump and the 100-yard dash and placed second in the 120-yard high hurdles and the broad jump, turning in the fine dual record since the late Johnson in 1928. Michigan in 1928. Keller's record- smashing run was inspired by Ward, who pressed him all the way. "Chocolate" Wins, as Usual. Before a yelling crowd of 12,000 fight-fans, "Kid" Chocolate, the Afro-Cuban featherweight champion of the world, after a poor start, carried the unanimous decision in his 15-4 victory. The son of England, last week Thursday night. The "Kid" won eight rounds decisively. Watson was credited with five, while two were even. Most of the drama of the fight, hard and somewhat bitterly fought most of the way, was packed into the tenth round when Chocolate, at the peak of his decisive rally, floored Watson with a looping left hand to the jaw. Seaman Tom almost turned the complete second assault from the combined few brutal efforts to escape Chocolate's furious, two-fisted rush, but he refused to take advantage of a long count and bobbed up after two strokes of the timekeeper's mallet. With characteristic frenzy, Chocolate ripped and slashed into his rallying rival, forcing Tom to cover his face and thin thatch of hair with gloved hands as he sought an escape. Weathering this gale, Watson, also still pale and shaky, fought back courageously and then wobbled to his corner at the end of the round. Chocolate sustained the tilt of the seventh and twelfth rounds, piling up a commanding margin on points. The gate was $30,000. Seaman Tom, weighing 125½ to Chocolate's 123½, lacked Chocolate's reach, speed and skill. --- PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY One Year ..... $2.00 Six Months ..... 1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter.

Good' --- It has been announced that Paul Robeson, actor and singer, who recently returned to this country from England "plans to perpetuate 'Negro plays in Europe by forming the Robeson Playhouse in London." It is sincerely hoped that Mr. Robeson will not put on exhibition plays that are so harmful to our people as "The Emperor Jones," in a motion picture version of which he is soon to appear, we regret to say. AN APPEAL TO OUR PRESS. One of the greatest agencies in the development of the race, is our press. Its leadership is unquestioned when competent, and unselfish editors blaze the way. In the present struggle, it is very important that a well-balanced press speak out and stand for the things that will inure to racial uplift. In this connection we venture to make several suggestions: (a) Our press should unite and adopt a policy of racial uplift. Each newspaper going it alone on vital matters will not make our press leadership effective. To have this unity of action, it is imperative that a real Press Association be maintained. To do this, individual leanings will have to be sacrificed for the good of the mass. When any condition arises that effects the growth, rights and privileges of the race, all of our papers should strike in unison to remedy it. (b) When any paper has built itself up to a point of influence and power, it should not turn public patronage into personal use for the paper, its editor or their personal friends. Nothing detracts from the usefulness of our press like using itself for the boosting or glorification of its staff. The real newspaper is a public asset and as such, should see to it that public good is paramount in all things. (c) The weakness of the race or its leadership, should not be headlined. When it becomes necessary to publicly expose any wrong for the good of the public, the press should be fearless. But to headline the common frailties of mankind, thereby lowering the standard of racial fitness for service, is a dis-service. The garbage pail of ordinary life, divorces, thefts, infidelities, etc., should not receive any prominent place in our press. If it is necessary to speak of them, it should be in a manner such as to keep the viciousness of the affair from the minds of youthful readers. Also there are times when men of prominence blunder morally or otherwise and the press is compelled to notice their failures but in doing so, the good of the cause these men represent should not be destroyed by destroying the men at the head. (d) All groups in America are struggling to gain their proper place in the body politic. If our group is to get its, a united press must fight unfinchingly for it. Personal hatreds and jealousies must not so divide our press, that the opposition can refuse the group what is its, by reason of internal feuds. In order to carry out the suggestions herein made, and many others possibly of greater importance, would it not be a fine thing to have representatives of our press meet in Chicago, this year, and work a modus operandi, thereby preparing the way for Afro-Americans to help themselves to receive equal and fair treatment in all things? Let us hear; let others speak! W. A. B. DR. MILLER "PLACED", AT LAST. We were sure pleased to learn this, last Saturday. Dr. Herbert A. Miller, former Ohio State University instructor in sociology, has been appointed a lecturer at Bryn Mawr, Pa. college and will report there, next fall. The board of trustees, of O. S. U., refused to renew Dr. Miller's contract, two years ago, because of his broad racial views and his exemplification of them at Wilberforce University upon the occasion of his last "sociological" study-visit there accompanied by a class of students (white) of O. S. U. Some of these students (girls) danced with students of color while at Wilberforce. This fact reached some of their parents, who happened to be narrow and prejudiced. They complained to the president, and board of trustees of O. S. U., with the result noted in the foregoing—Dr. Miller was "let out." Encouraged by the lack of protest on the part of the State Assembly of Ohio, and other state officers, against the Ku Klux Klan treatment of him, President Rightmire and the Board of Trustees instituted other color-lines in the institution, one of which resulted in discrimination against Miss Wilhelminia Styles and Miss Doris Weaver, who are now graduates of that institution but who were robbed of the practice-part of their study of Home Economics as a result of the color-line the president and other university officials drew, backed by its Board of Trustees. Since, with the assistance of the Ohio Supreme Court, they are trying with a decision of that court, to read social matters into laws, safeguarding our citizen rights and privileges, in such a way as to practically ruin the laws. It is this fact that makes it imperative that the Ohio Supreme Court decision in question be carried to the U. S. Supreme Court for the purpose of having it wiped out, something that will undoubtedly be done if the decision ever reaches there. Ohio taxpayers, who maintain Ohio State University, do not support it for the purpose of promoting in any way social matters or ideas of its officials relative to the myth, "social equality." Neither must have any place in the conduct of Ohio State University. --- WATCH JESSE'S DUST! When an athlete seasoned by many years' training clips a tenth of a second from a dash record it is no mean achievement. These figures sometimes stand for a decade, altho every year 100,000 or so limber-legged youths are earnestly striving to better them. When a schoolboy like Jesse Owens tears down the huge chunks it is an athletic miracle. This Cleveland youngster in his current performances at the Columbus interscholastic meet has run away from all the adjectives in the sport writers' vocabulary. And little wonder, for such achievements by a high school lad are almost without precedent. Jesse's solid legs are bringing immediate credit to himself by bringing no less glory to the city and his race. Like Metcalfe and Tolan, he is demonstrating the ability of the Afro-American to excel in one of the most highly competitive fields of sport. And his track career has hardly begun. So far most of his competition has scarcely to hit the ground. When Jesse really gets a move on, just watch his dust!—Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer Editorial. The foregoing is good, very good and true! But even better is the unqualified praise of the lad by the white-haired veteran, Charles Riley, who has been coaching track-teams to championships at Fairmont Junior High school, this city, ever since 1918. Mr. Riley has developed many track stars, but the one lad who is "the apple of his eye" is Jesse Owens whom he characterizes as "a marvelous boy," and of him says, "Nothing goes to his head. He's just as modest, today, as the day I first picked him out of a physical-education class and marked him as a future champion." No wonder Jesse, who is a senior, is the hero at East Tech High school, this city, and elsewhere in Cleveland. Not only Ed Well, coach at East Tech, wants to see Jesse Owens go to Chicago, June 16 and 17, for the national interscholastic meet. All Cleveland without regard to race or color, wants this and it is sincerely hoped that the local School-Board regulations against the trip will be suspended. It is due not only the lad but to all Cleveland and the state of Ohio. MADAM HERMAN! Gifted spiritualist and horoscope writer. Gives advice on affairs of life.

Macon, left a trail of twinkling lights on telephone switchboards as it soared over northern Ohio on its trial flights. When the gigantic dirigible loomed into sight over towns and cities, telephone operators were swamped with calls as citizens excitedly passed around news of its approach. At Conneaut, O., the number of calls jumped from 264 to 2,201 an hour. One man was kept busy replacing fuses blown out by the enormous load.

Subscribe Now OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law 'allows: 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. MORS. 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 is a statute of the meaning of this chapter (93 v. 161 2). Section 6279. The term "serious injury" for the purpose of 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. If there be no widow 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 such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 yr. 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 recourses provided for in this chapter shall be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7). Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is 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 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 damages 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 mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be 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 contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 162 10.) 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 mana r of an inn, restaurant, eating house, bar-bar 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 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 them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. IS IT ANY USE TO CONTEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal education and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say. "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without f-rerecruit and have "guts." The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Boston (Mass.)

Stewart of Youngtown was unable to fill the engagement to speak for the Harlan club at Antioch Baptist church, Sunday, because of an accident which prevented his travelling. The Lincoln Embroidery club was entertained, recently, by Mrs. Cornelia F. Nickens, E. Scald, Mrs. C. Huntcutt, from California, and Mrs. Nickens' son and daughter-in-law, Dr. and Mrs. Armen C. Evens, were guests. Sunday evening, Senator John P. Green spoke most interestingly to a crowded house at Quinn A. M. E. church's forum on "The Aristocracy of Literature." Mr. Green received great applause and many congratulations. Senator is still one of our most pleasing and satisfactory public-speakers. Kitchen-Cu by Della T Mrs. Madeline Early, president of our City Federation, was elected president of our Northeastern Ohio branch of the State Federation of Women's clubs at a one-day convention held at the P.

Lafayette center went over big, Friday evening, with its "Big Broadcast" program in the P. W. A. auditorium. Harry J. Walker, sponsor and chief announcer, "Hot Foot" Spencer, the four-First Sisters, Bernice Crowler, Gladys Higgins, Johnny Meyers' Jug Band, the three Redd sisters and their two brothers were among those on the program. The subject of Tom Ireland's talk, Sunday evening, over WGAR will be "Cleveland a Seaport by the Development of Cleveland's Port in Relation to the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Waterway to the Sea"—an answer to the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. The Seaway will reduce freights, increase profits and will make a greater Cleveland with more business for all, according to Mr. Ireland. Rev. David Ormonez Walker, pastor of St. James' A. M. E. church, Monday announced his candidacy for election to the Cleveland Board of Education. He declared himself in favor of the extension of school economies, a moratorium on school construction, retention of married teachers on a strict efficiency basis, continuation of the kindergarten, and for free text books throughout the school system. Councilman Charles Sacks delivered a very interesting talk at the 30th Ward Republican club meeting, last week Tuesday evening. The club in a resolution took a firm stand against Republican candidates, for anything, who are directly or indirectly connected with the Ku Klux Klan, and instructed its delegates to the Cuyahoga County League of Republican clubs to govern themselves accordingly. The premiere of a series of radio plays based on "Weary Land," a book by Dr. Wm. P. Saunders and Miss Blanche E. Johnson, public-school teacher, took place, Sunday, at 2:30 p.m. m., over WHK. Members of the Gilpin Players are among the performers who are Ella Atwater Apple, Dr. Saunders, Hazel M. Walker, Thos. L. Christopher and Harry E. Thompson. Many of our people object to "Weary Land" because such plays are not as a rule helpful as far as the race is concerned.

Mrs. Gregory and family have the earnest sympathy of scores of friends here and at the nation's capital. Mrs. Isabelle Dorsey Coleman, age 73, died, May 18, at her daughter, Mrs. Alfred Hardiman's, in Detroit, Mrs. Coleman was a wonderful Christian character and active for years. Mrs. Coleman was the widow of Rev. Chas. W. Dorsey, Ohio A. M. E. minister for many years. The funeral services, Saturday, in Detroit at St. Luke's A. M. E. church were largely attended. Surviving are Mrs. Viola Hardiman and Mrs. Dorsey Coleman of Detroit, Aileen H. Dorsey of Cleveland Go. Dorsey of Chicago and Chad H. Dorsey of Pittsburgh. Among the outstanding features of the recent Lafayette center program at the P. W. A. was the work of the "Four Red Hot Reds"—Frances, Virginia, Vivian and James Redd, children of Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Redd, E. 123 St., and grandchildren of John W. Redd, for many years, until the Miller Democratic city administration night-watchman of the city, who certainly pleased greatly the large audience which enclosed them repeatedly. But the little fellow of the family, Frank Redd, age 10, stole the show with his wonderful voice, singing, "The Old Rocking Chair" and "Darkness Spring-cleaning makes an awful muss, it also makes most husbands fuss; When home and wife are such a sight They dread to come back home at night. Cleanliness, aside from being "next to Goddiness" is almost a fetish with modern civilization. This is as it should be and I am among those who worship at its shrine. However, like all good things, it can be carried to an extreme. The husband of a friend of mine once told me that his wife has a Spring-cleaning complex. In a pathetic voice he added, "It is just as if two weeks are taken out of my life each year—two weeks which are a nightmare and a complete loss." Many men feel this way, I am afraid. They would, of course, be the first to be resentfully unhappy if their homes were messy. On the other hand, much that is done in the way of extra-special cleaning seems unnecessary to them. Most men would prefer to come home when they are doing their own that was neat and tidy but not, perhaps, spotless under the picture moldings), than to a cross one (and breathes there a woman who can do strenuous house cleaning and not be tired and cross?) who has worked like a hired woman all day. The trouble with most women is that they try to do too much at one time. It is far better to do one of the disagreeable tasks each week than to do house cleaning on a wholesale basis once Attention! Readers! Our advertisers want your trade. Those who do not ask for it in the columns of "The Old Reliable" Gazette certainly care little, if at all, for it.

"The Pour Pestersisters"—Eleanor Williams, Mary Ellen Freeman, Evelyn Johnson and Ernestine Brooks—girls from 14 to 16 years of age, were equally popular, being enforced again and again. They are steppers and tap dancers. It was a mistake to announce the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, as a member of the publicity committee of the membership campaign of the P. W. A. Friday night is "jim-crow" night at Luna Park rocker-skating rink, this city. Tell your friends and acquaintances of color to have too much self and race respect to be so "jim-crowed" and to stay away from Luna park roller-skating rink until they are treated there just like members of ALL other races or classes in this community. It now develops that the company, just "chartered for slum clearance in the city," intends to bring about "a change in the occupancy of the district (Ward 11) improved" with modern housing for lower income groups of people. The lowest income groups can only be provided such housing with the aid of philanthropy. This would necessarily remove our people as residents of the ward and elsewhere in the third district, the fatal mistake of the company is its figuring on too low a rental basis the value of the land it wishes to practically confiscate, in Ward 11 and the district for its "modern housing" project, "with parks," etc. PASTOR PRAISES ALERT OPERATOR Alertness in calling aid for one of his parishioners brought praise to Miss Ruth Asmus, a Cincinnati telephone operator, from Reverend C. A. Cossaboon, pastor of Mt. Healthy Christian Church. Miss Cora Diserens, for many years organist at the church, suddenly was stricken by partial paralysis while alone in her home. In an attempt to summon assistance she succeeded in lifting the receiver from her telephone, but was unable to speak. Hearing low moaning sounds coming over the line, Miss Asmus, the operator, called a neighbor and asked him to investigate. He found the organist lying helplessly upon the floor near the telephone and called a doctor. The patient now is reported to be improving. In a letter to the chief operator of Miss Asmus' exchange, Reverend Cossaboon commended the operator for her quick and resourceful action in the emergency. or twice a year. Why don't you try doing a little budgeting of your time and work this year, and plan it so that you do it gradually? The following are a few suggestions which may help you. To clean glass on pictures use wet chamois. Hold a piece of blotting paper at the edge of the frame to prevent water from getting under the glass. Cleaning upholstery has always been the nightmare of every housekeeper. Did you know that you can shampoo it yourself in your own home? To begin, I suggest you try to underneath one of the cushions to make sure that the dye in the fabric does not run. Go over the whole surface with a vacuum cleaner. Then dissolve about two cups of pure soap flakes in two quarters of water. Let this cool and then beat with an egg beater, until foamy. Apply this solution, using a small brush, to a small portion of the surface. Assemble a circulation Scape over the lather with a spatula and then use your vacuum cleaner again to remove all the remains of soap and dirt. Pittsburgh is not, by any means, the only dirty city. Any large city is full of dirt and soot. Sometimes, it seems that a goodly portion of that self-same soot either finds its way through our windows or that it doesn't — Wake your windows on the inside once or twice a week and you will find that they have to be washed much less often. When the windows have to be really washed, use a sponge dipped in a mixture of warm water and ammonia (one tablespoon of ammonia to one quart of water) to clean the chafings which has been wring almost dry. Do not use soap as this will streak. WHILE HERE IS A PEN THAT'S A TERRIBLE SIGHT, AND THE POOREST OF BUMS WOULDN'T USE IT TO WRITE: American News Features, Inc. THE GLORY OF WOMAN LIES IN HER HAIR..

Prepared by National Geographic Society. Washington, D. C.-WNU Service AS WARM weather approaches, the Vale of Kashmir, one of the famous garden spots of the world, beckons to the vacationists of India. Its wooded hillsides don a new green which is reflected in the clear, blue, placid streams of the valley; and houseboats are put in order for a busy season. The Vale of Kashmir lies among the lower Himalayas, north of the Indian Punjab. One reaches Srinagar, the summer capital of the native state known as the domain of the Mahranja of Jammu and Kashmir, over a long route by rail and motor. From Bombay one travels northward by train via Delhi and Lahore, to Kawalpindi, one of the chief army posts of British India. There the way to beauty opens. Almost at once on leaving Rawalpindi the motor road belongs to climb. Up and up through the deodar-clad slopes of the lower mountain the road twists and turns, the heated air of the plains grows cool and invigorating, until, when travelers make their first overnight stop at Tret, they feel captivated by a joyous holiday spirit. Everything seems amusing and interesting. Ruffled punkas swing from the ceiling, though you may have no need of them. Your deft and turbaned servants patter barefooted about the rooms, unrolling your bedding on the stringed charpools, the fairly comfortable beds of India. Even the not-too-bad food served by the bungalow cook is a matter for hungry jest. Lovely, lovely world, with a summer of Kashmir ahead. Native Chauffeurs Are Speedy. The road from Rawalpindi to Srinagar is a well-built motor road, some 200 miles long, and it lies through the mountains north of the Pir Panjal pass. Snowy peaks rise high above you. The rushing waters of icy streams chatter noisily below. Hairpin turns in the road make you catch your breath and curl your toes, for the ways of the native driver are his own and without fear, and, alas, you have not the knowledge of his language wherewith to express your feelings. Soon, from the first traveling sahil, you may learn to say, "Ahista, ahista!" But you never succeed in making an Indian chauffeur drive slowly, slowly. It is possible to make the trip to Srinagar in a day, but not ahista! Quite the contrary. You spend two night in dak bungalows (resthouses) along the way, the second at Baramula, which lies at the edge of the great depression known as the Vale of Kashmir. From Baramula one can go the rest of the way by boat, up the Jelum river; but you may prefer to drive. The last 35 miles lie across a level stretch, the road bordered on either side by slender poplars. The people passed along the way are quite different from those one sees in India. Ekkas and tongas, the two-wheeled horse-drawn vehicles of the country, draw aside to let you pass. The Vale of Kashmir is a level valley about 80 miles long and averaging about 20 miles in width. It lies, a great oval, surrounded by mountains green with deodar and spruce on the lower reaches and white with snow until well into the early summer. Skies of an incredible blue complete a color scheme of fairy loveliness. Throughout the valley winds the curving line of the River Jelum, along the banks of which straggle the streets and bazaars which form the ancient city of Srinagar. Quaint Scenes in Srinagar. Seven curious bridges span the river, and along the shore quaint old wooden houses lean sometimes at a rakish angle. Many of the city streets end in wide stone steps leading down to the river's edge. These stairways are usually animated scenes of native life. Here the laundry men wash the clothes; here the women come to fill their water jars. Children tumble and play about, and goats and cows ramble freely among them. From the overhanging balconies lengths of dyed pashmina hang out to dry. All is colorful and gay. Also there is the interesting river life. A large part of the population of Srinagar lives aloft. Odd, long, pointed boats, called dungas, with superstructures hung with mats of woven reeds, are the only homes which thousands of Kashmiris ever know. Sleeping quarters within, a kitchen of sorts open to the eyes of all, a few pots of brass or copper, and a poor Kashmiri's household is complete. The native of more ample means has a better boat. Walls of wood replace the woven mass, and as better and better financial status is indicated, so the boats improve. The best are comfortable and well-furnished house boats, such as one might see upon the River Thames. The English have made their contribution in the development of the house boat in Srinagar; for the Vale of Kashmir has become not only a favorite vacation land for the English army in India, but the permanent home of many retired officers and their families. Servants All Are Men. One lives easily in Kashmir. A host of servants cost about as much as one good cook in the West, and they feed themselves. Each one has his appointed duties and does them fairly well. All your servants in Kashmir are men. The women seldom work out Even the little children of Westerner frequently have men servants to care for them. Your list may include a mangi, or head boatman; a khitmatgar (girl house servant), assistant khitmatgar, a bhisti (water carrier, sweeper of lowest caste and doer of mental jobs), a khansaman (cook), a dhobi (washerman), a dhurzi (sewing man), a mall (gardener), and three little chokers, the small boys who paddle the shikara, a small gondola- like boat in which you go everywhere you desire. It seems an ample list! If you take guests for tea to Shallmar gardens, the houseman goes along and serves a perfect meal under the spreading chenar trees. When you plan a morning in the bazaars, the houseman follows respectfully behind, your guide. Your days are carpeted with ease and your home is a joy, thanks to the willing service of an able houseman. Where but in Kashmir could one call back to a houseman as one is leaving home for all day, "we will have guests for dinner tonight at nine o'clock" and return to find everything in perfect order, fresh flowers everywhere, the table set in holiday attire, and a course dinner perfectly planned? Many of the Kashmiris are fine looking, the women especially having beautiful eyes and quite regular features. Like other native states of the Indian empire, Kashmir Las an English resident, or advisory official, and through him more sanitary ways of living are gradually being introduced into the country. There is an excellent mission hospital and a zenana hospital, as the name implies, for women, and a school conducted by an English clergyman is doing wonders among the youth of the country. Foreigners Like Kashmir The foreign element in Srinagar increases yearly. From the terrible heat of the Punjab come English army peo- Men Needleworkers of Kashmir. ple, seeking the cool air and health of the hills, and these bring with them the influence of English manners and customs, and, better still, of English fair play. There is not in all Srinagar a merchant who does not rely whole-heartedly on the honor of the English Sahib. Shopping is a quaint pastime in this City of the Sun. As one strolls along the Bund, eager merchants press their wares. Mohamad Jamar assures you that not in all Srinagar—no, not even at All Jhan's, his rival—can you procure such embroideries, such fine pashmina, such beautiful designs. Will not the Lady Sahib but see? Or, as the small shikara of a merchant is rowed alongside your boat, deftly timed to find you at home, he eagerly spreads his wares. He is insistent that you see his treasures. "Only looking, Lady Sahib. Not buying, only looking." The foxy merchant well knows his goods are tempting. He is sure that some time you will buy. The native industries of Kashmir, alas, have cheapened and some have almost died out entirely. No longer, for instance, can one procure the very finest shawls, such as made the name of Kashmir famed throughout the world. One can get good shawls, soft and fine, but the exquisite, old-time shawls are hardly to be found outside of museums. Pashmina is one of the loveliest products of the land. It is a soft cream-colored woolen cloth, made from the fine under-hair of the Tibetan goat. The finer weaves are incredibly soft and the shawlmaker, hopeful for your order, will show you how a length of it can be drawn through a finger ring. A much heavier woolen cloth, something akin to Scottish homespun, is called puttoo, and the better weaves make splendid outing clothes. Queen and Parliament in Ancient St. Kilda's Two strange things about St. Kilda, which has been abandoned by its inhabitants, were that it had a queen and a parliament of its own. The first "queen of St. Kilda" was a woman from the mainland who went there as a domestic servant to the minister many years ago. She was the only person on the island, except the minister, who could speak English, and being a well-educated and intelligent woman, the St. Kildans thought a great deal of her. Partly in jest they gave her a royal title; and when she died tragically in a boating accident, the title passed to her daughter, and then to the prettiest girl or woman on the island. The parliament, as it was called, met every day in the open air to decide the work that was to be done, whether fowling or work on the land. Sometimes disputes were settled by drawing lots, but the business of the "house" was conducted in a friendly spirit. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, MAY 27. 1933. Ever in the Style Picture Is Velvet Ever in the Style Picture Is Velvet By CHERIE NICHOLAS WITH a growing appreciation of what the art of good dressing really means, will consider none other than the hat, the gown, the accessories which "do something for you" more than serving merely as wearing apparel. When it comes to a fabric which performs miracles in the way of doing something flattering for you, such as softening harsh lines, accenting charms, while it minimizes defects until it takes years from one's appearance, it is generally conceded that velvet has no compeer. Which readily explains why designers of this day and age are seeing to it that velvet be kept in the style picture the whole year round. Paris adores velvet as a summer item. In creating the newer costumes the best contouriers seldom lose an opportunity to complement sheer and summery frocks with the most ravishing and colorful little velvet jackets or capes one may ever hope to see. If not a cunning wrap, then bows, girdles and furbelows of velvet play an effective contrast to the dainty organies, cliffions and such which fashions milady's wardrobe for the coming months. The lovely models in the illustration convey some little idea of the perfectly charming things leading French designers are doing with velvet. The three wraps are Paton creations. The dotted frock is a Maggie Rouff model. Note the new short front of its skirt. 10 CREME NUCHOLS The casual tailored suit, shown to the right, with its swagger topcoat, chic-tied shoes and cavalier bag, is characteristic of the latest mode for about-town and travel wear. The hat is of straw with an organdie bow and band, and the blouse is of striped shirting silk. Remove the topcoat of this handsome tailored three-piece and there is disclosed a clever jacket and skirt suit. The suit, above to the left, of men's cloth is in correct tailored form from shoe to hat. Note the series of bracelets and the tailored bag. The little sailor has one of the very new high-back crowns. Gun Metal Leather Used in This Season's Shoes Gun metal leather is one of this season's contributions to new and different footwear—and shoes of it solve the problem of one pair for gray, blue and black outfits. Because of the nature of gun metal, shoes styled in it are generally without much decoration. In some models it is combined with suede. The material for this dress is a white crepon with blue dots. The decollete trim is of blue velvet, the same also used for the belt which does not show in the picture. The cape dress, pictured above to the left in this group, is made of pearl blue broadcloth. The girdle, big and shoes, likewise the enormous bow, all in matching gentian blue place unmistakable emphasis on the velvet vogue as it is interpreted among haute mode fashions. The youthful velvet evening jacket, shown below to the left, is in ruby red. It tops a mousselline frock which conveys the message of floral prints in gorgeous colorings. The intricate seaming of this charming velvet wrap, as well as the high ruff about the throat, are points of high style distinction. The other velvet jacket, which is worn over a light blue evening dress, abounds in ingenious details which set it apart from the ordinary. A wrap of this type is a much-to-be-coveted possession, in whatsoever color one may choose, or in black, since it can be worn smartly in the afternoon as well as for formalms. A very pretty effect is being achieved in afternoon frocks of dainty crepe done in pastels such as pale green or light blue or some such, the idea being to trim with a velvet in darker shade. @. 1933. Western Newspaper Union. SPRING LINGERIE IS MOST ALLURING It is to sigh with rapture, as one catches a glimpse of the latest detectable trifles which Paris has designed in the way of spring and summer lingerie. No signs of hard times here. Exquisite filmy fabrics, cobwebly laces, plenty of handwork seem to be the rule for the latest underthings. Gowns are more elaborate than ever, borrowing their design from formal evening fashions. One adorable nightdress of palest pink chiffon is pleated from yoke to hem in clusters, emphasizing long slender lines, with fullness released below the knees. There's a deep yoke of the finest of silk lace which is tinted the same delicate pink as the gown. Double puff sleeves of the lace are held with narrow bands of the chiffon, and a narrow sash belt ties at the back. The separate jacket scheme turns the night dress into a tea gown, and is proving very popular. Sleeve Lengths Vary in New Jackets for Spring The box type jacket shows interesting new shoulder treatments, such as Lanvin's sleeves with padded or stuffed pleats from shoulder to elbow, and Schiaparelli's cartridge pleats on shoulders or sleeve top. Other jacket or coat sleeves appear in every length, elbow, three-quarter, seven-eighths and full length. And new style sleeves for ensembles are sleeves bagged from elbow to wrist, or from elbow to any chosen sleeve length; wide cuffs to finish elbow or three-quarter length sleeves; slashed sleeves, with the dress showing through the slashes, and the usual plain, raglan, and set-in sleeve types. Skirts Generally Longer Than Worn Last Season Skirts generally are accepted to be longer than last season—considerably longer. Some houses show only a few sport things on the ankle, all the other daytime skirts touching the ankle bone, and evening ones sweeping the floor. Waistlines are normal to low except in the mind and models of Mime. Elsa Schlaparell, who continues to place them high, wide and handsome, in an eccentric way. Fairyland Flares in Light Chicago World's Fair Fantasy THE Camirror 27 Jack Maypole, 16 yr. old amateur, won six outboard racing trophies May 14, when he drove "Miss Waukegan A" across the finish line of Albany, New York City Marathon.

How would you like the job of washing and polishing 30,000 crystal prisms and pendant? That's what workman is doing, so that the famous crystal chandeliers at The Blackstone, Chicago's Queen of Hotels will sparkle and glisten like diamond. The room has a large glass room on the street level. The Blackstone has been renovated and reappointed in every detail for the benefit of World's Fair guests. MAGIC city of dazzling light, with fantastically-shaped buildings silhouetted against the night sky by beams from myriad sources—searchlights, scintillators, floodlights, sparkling colored fountains, glowing neon tubes, with brilliant fans and plumes of light overhead. This is the fairyland that will blaze like a jewel with a million facets every night at Chicago's 1933 World's Fair—A Century of Progress, which opens on May 27. Just as the architecture of the Exposition has transcended all previous attempts in the creation of new and startling effects, the night illumination will surpass anything ever before attempted. Foremost electrical engineers and illuminating experts of the nation have combined to produce the most spectacular of all night pagcents of color and light. The Fair will dramatically demonstrate to the millions of visitors that illumination this past century has made startling advancement. Well known century being celebrated, oil and gas were the sources of light on which night-time activity depended. Expositions in the early days closed their gates at sundown. The first attempt to provide night entertainment for Fair visitors was at Philadelphia in 1876, and then the official closing was at dusk. The merchants of the city banded together, however, and made an effort to carry the carnival spirit into the night by installing thousands of gas jets and by sponsoring firework displays. Use 15,000 Lamps Two great electrical manufacturers, General Electric and Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing, have pooled their forces under the direction of Walter D'Arcy Ryan, for years director of G-E's illuminating engineering laboratory, to produce lighting effects heretofore unseen. Elaborate mushroom-like reflectors which will light the paths at A Century of Progress. "Uncle!" Few Hours Older Than "Niece."—Mrs. Henry G. Hintmore, right, of Newburyport, Mass., gave birth to a son recently and a few hours later she became a grandmother when her daughter, left, gave birth to a daughter in the same hospital. This daughter was born in a hospital in a few hours. Her son is an uncle and just a few hours older than his niece. The other woman gave birth to her daughter and also acquired a brother. Lighting plans for A Century of Progress call for the use of more than 15,000 incandescent lamps, ranging in size from 10 to 2,000 watts, for exterior illumination alone. It is possible only to guess the number that will be used within the great exposition buildings and by concessions. A single battery of twenty-four are searchlights will have a total light power of 1,500,000,000 candlepower for one spectacular effect. Thousands of feet of mercury and mercury vapor tubes will add their soft glow to building exterior. It is estimated that 2,100 kilowatts of electrical energy will be required for the outdoor lighting effects. Three electric fountains are being installed in the lagoon, just off the east shore and north of the Twenty-third Street bridge. With 507 water jets, sprays and nozzles in each, it will take 3,600 gallons of water per minute to produce the eight distinct water displays of which each fountain is capable of 75-watt power for each water effect, and a complete cycle that includes the many combinations will take ten minutes. At the climax of the dem- onstruction cycle, water will be spilled eighty feet in the air. In the center fountain, harmonious gradations of colored light, including soft pastel shades, will be provided by seventy special floodlighting projectors equipped with red, green, blue and amber lights. The center fountain will employ thirty-six floodlights with clear lenses. Scintillator Display The seintillator will be located on the shore of Lake Michigan south of the Travel and Transport Building. With a railroad track located nearby, two gigantic locomotives can be run in to generate steam and shoot clouds of it high in the air. The brilliant colored lights, operated by a squad of specially trained men, will be played on the steam and on clouds of smoke exploded high in the air by smoke bombs. Brilliantly colored fans and plumes of light will be thrown hundreds of feet into the sky, and a fiery battle of serpents will be symbolized in the nightly displays. In their initial position, the searchlights will form an intensely bright aurora over the entire area. rs which will light the paths at of Progress. 27
