Clarence Cameron White, director of the Hampton, Va. School of Music, will be given the honorary degree, Doctor of Music, at Wilberforce University commencement, next week. Miss Carrie Graham, age 90, left her $6,000 estate to her employer, Ralph Jonas (white), wealthy banker and philanthropist, and to several children (whole family). She had worked for them the greater part of her life. Leah B. Wilson of Washington, D. C., a policyholder, has asked that a receiver be appointed for the two prizes awarded to the National Benefit Life Ins. Co., giving several very good reasons for her request. Dick S. Ramsey (white), wealthy, who died, June 27, 1931, and whose will was probated in Kings County, New York, May 11, 33, left $10,000 to our old folks' home, located at Kingston Ave. and St. Johns Place, N. Y. City. One of our largest and best known business enterprises of Pittsburgh is the big grocery, coffee, tea and spice house owned and operated by Neil Pierce for thirty-two years.

Maestro Achilles Anelli, president of the American Opera Co. of New York City, will on tomorrow evening in that city present his artist-students in scenes from the great opera, "Aida," with Charlotte A. Gillard, one of our girls, singing the title role. It will be recalled that our Jules Bledsoe, famous baritone, singing an "Aida" leading role,imonologue, that the opera in a given this city, last year, by a company (white) of artists of national reputation, was highly acclaimed by all the critics.

Buck's remarkable speech on the "Negro" at The Opportunity dinner, given in her honor, is the outstanding feature of Opportunity for June. It's prize story, "A Summer Tragedy" by Arna Bontemps, also appears in this issue of the magazine. Melville Herskovits, distinguished anthropologist of Northwestern University, contributes to the brilliant article, "A Bontemps to the History," by J. A. Rogers, is the story of a second Toussaint "Ouverture, who by his military skill and genius defeated the best armies of Holland in battles for power during the earliest history of Brazil. There is poetry by Jonathan Brooks and Langston Hughes, and the cover is by the well-known New York artist, Charles H. Alston. LYNCHING LAW HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING J. E. Hubbard, of the 18th Ward, and Dr. E. A. Bailey, councilman candidates in the fourth district, are working "like tigers," making a "house to house" canvass, and will have to be reckoned with, they say. Since there is such a large number of candidates in that district, it is "anybody's" fight, they insist. Rev. J. W. Ribbins is again the Afro-American Democratic candidate for the council in Ward 11, and has a mighty good chance to win, this time, with former Councilman E. J. Gregg, a former Largesse of Payne, candidates, dividing the Republican vote in the ward. Some of the latter are not just sure whether Gregg is a Republican or a Democrat, owing to his flirting with both parties when he was a member of the City Council. Mr. Maurice Maschke's resignation as leader of the local Republican organization was finally announced, last week, and is a great big mistake. It really is unfortunate, from a party viewpoint, that he did withhold it, at least, until after this fall's election. The party will sorely need his leadership in the campaign apportionment, two ways, to the public candidate for mayor, something the great mass of local Republicans are simply praying for. The Miller Democratic administration has not only been a joke, but a real "pain and headache." Thousands of Democrats so regard it, as well as about all the Republicans of the community. The next mayor will be a Republican and his candidacy will be announced at an early date now, since Harry L. Davis has been elected Mr. Maschke's successor as leader. --- The Jews and Irish have about stopped the ridiculing and reviling of their people, on the stage, in pictures and "talkies" and over the radio. Some "Negroes" are encouraging that very thing, as far as their people are concerned, to make a few dirty dimes and seem to feel that they are "smart" in so doing. Lord, the people who weaken there is so little respect in this country for "Negroes." "Porgy," "The Emperor Jones," "Weyland," "Rev. Leatherfoot" and like abortions, for instance. Carl D. Freibolin, U. S. referee in bankruptcy, has named five leading women and ten leading men, active in Cleveland's civic, professional and educational life, to serve as an executive board of the Cleveland Schools Emergency Committee of which he is chairman. This executive board met, this week, with the general committee which elected a nominating committee which will draw up a slate of candidates for election to the board of education, this fall, when the terms of President Alfred A. Benesch, E. M. Williams, Mrs. Clara T. Brewer and Mrs. Mary B. Martin expire. Mrs. Martin alone has declared her candidacy for re-election and is being actively opposed among our people particularly by Rev. David Ormonde Walker who announced his candidacy, last week. Brewer and Benesch will remain Williams has definitely announced that he will not stand for re-election. The Freibolin executive board and emergency committee include about two scores of Cleveland's leading citizens, male and female, and are backed by leading citizens and the women's political organizations of the city. They intend to place new candidates in the field, one of whom will be Mrs. Malcolm L. McBride. They intend to replace the four old members who are named in the foregoing, with new ones. This is a most praleeworthy movement and will undoubtedly be successful. WINS CIVIL RIGHTS CASE Detroit, Mich.—Dr. S. Byron Milton of River Rouge, this county, was awarded $50 damages by a jury of four women and two men in a common pleas court room here, last week Tuesday. He sued the owner of the Lincoln theater of W. Fort St. for trying to charge him 90 cents admission when the regular price was only 15 cents. Dr. Milton is also going to start criminal action against the theater owner. This will subject him to an additional fine of $100 or imprisonment for 30 days, or both. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS IS BASED ON OUR OHIO PIONEER MOB-VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW AND IS Largely the Result of the Activity of a Former Resident of Ohio—Passed Unanimously in Both Branches of the California Assembly. SOME CASES UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE LOCAL N. A. A. C. P. BRANCH. Sacramento, Calif.—Afro-Americans throut the state are very happy over the recent unanimous passage of an anti-lynching bill in both branches of the State Assembly, thereby giving California its first mob violence act. The bill was jointly introduced by Assemblyman Wm. F. Knowland of Alameda County, assistant publisher of the Oakland Tribune, and Assemblyman Frederick M. Roberts of Los Angeles County, editor and publisher of the New Age-Dispatch. All this was done at the request of Miss Deillah L. Beasley, a former Ohioan and a newspaper writer on the staff of the Oakland (California) State University, in catalyzing law is the basis of California's. Mr. Roberts is our first member of the California legislature who after ten years' membership in that august body is now recognized as its dean. He is well educated, public spirted and loyal. Miss Beasley is author of the well-known history, "The Negro Trail Blazers of California," which she published some years ago. She it was who secured the endorsement of such legislation from our California State Federation of Women's clubs (northern section), the Oakland Council of Church Women, and the Guild of Young Women (white) and many of the members of our Alamanda County League of Women Voters of which organization Miss Beasley is vice-president and chairman of legislation. She also had letters from many persons throut the coun- 1. Lakeside Hospital—A woman of the race, with a 24-hour-old babe, placed in an ambulance and sent to her home in the middle of the night because of a disagreement with the nurse. Ambulance driver found a cold house, no fire and took her to Women's Police Bureau at E 88 St. Wakefield and was made with Lakeside and they at first consented to take the baby back but refused the woman. After hours of telephoning by the Women's Bureau the woman and child were allowed to return to Lakeside. So poorly were they clad that clothing had to be brought to the Women's Bureau before they were returned to the hospital. A sign "For Colored" was placed on the table in the dining room where colored and white employees had been eating. There had been and is not yet any existing between workers. The order is said to come from a woman in charge who has brot from her home prejudiced ideas. Employees were informed they are to eat at that table only and when one employee refused she was further informed by the women in charge of the steam tables. 2. St. Luke's Hospital.—A woman of the race with her newly born child was transferred to a ward where St. Luke has segregated our patients although this is not new. We have other facility for patients and babies care. Suit pending in the courts now. Segregated ward and segregated dispensary for women. 3. Charity Hospital—(a) Segregated Ward. (b) A physician called and asked for a bed for a small boy who needed emergency hospitalization and was told he could have a bed. Ambulance was called and when the boy arrived the physician was called and asked: "Why didn't you say this boy was a 'Negro' boy: he have no bed for 'Negro' boy: the doctor reported 'I have no right to the race of my patient and you had better take care of this boy.' After threats the boy was permitted to remain. 4. City Hospital—Patients applying for admittance thru their physicians or agencies are often held out of the hospital when the officials ask their race and are told they are "Negroes." Our girls pursuing the nursing course at City Hospital have had to undergo many unpleasant experiences. If they were of independent guarding situation they have been suspended and threatened. Recently the Senior Prom was called off because they expected the attendance of our students. Two cases have been reported where our mothers, who have been at City Hospital in their maternity ward, have not received proper attention. 5. Cleveland Health Centers—A separate day for white and our mothers is now maintained at E. 55th St. and Woodland Ave., and at E. 35th dispensary. For these centers we please too. 6.

Our girls have always been instructed a 1:10 proportion each. The claim was made by those in charge that our girls may only have the proportion our population in the city entitles us to. White girls are never proportioned as to races. They fail to take into consideration the fact that many of the places for girls are closed to them, and that they cannot to consider proportion in this instance. Dr. Wembridge of the Juvenile Court and Judge Eastmann have often committed girls and they have remained at the Detention Home for three and four months, and then released because of this proportion system and not because there is no same place as carried on at Hudson Valley Farm Juvenile Court Records prove these facts to be true. 7. The Women's Protective Association, known now as Girls' Bureau, was a home for incorrigible girls where a girl is studied before being联 upon. They refuse to let our girls go to school, so the school or city agencies ask them to take charge of our girls, whose homes may not be proper, they have taken them, girls who must not be Juvenile Court girls, and placed them at the Mary B. Talbert Home with their parents. A definite segregation policy of the Women's Protective Association or Girls' Bureau. CELEBRATES CENTENNIAL Illumination of College Grounds and Town—Historical Parade, Band Concerts, Basket Picnic, Athletic Sports. Oberlin, O.—June 17 is "Community Day" here.

SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1933. The Gazette is indebted to the Cleveland Daily Press for the cut of Jesse Owens used in our last issue. The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of an invitation from the trustees, faculty and graduating classes of Howard University, Washington, D. C., to attend its events of commencement week, June 4 to 9, when degrees will be conferred. --- The Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. maintains separate or "jim-crow" offices for its "Negro" policy-holders in Chicago, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Cleveland and Jersey City, it is announced. Our people should get out of that company pronto and stay out of it, until it discontinues the insulting practice. Editor Smith has been a stalwart Republican for half a century, and he is so devoted to his party that Democrats have horns in his eyesight.—New York Age Southern Democracy, the controlling element in National Democracy, has "horns" in its "eye-sight" because it is responsible for distranchisement, lynching, "jim-crow" cars, etc., etc. The Gazette has tried from the very beginning to give the Communists full credit for all the good work they have done for the Scottsboro boy-victims and other members of the race in trouble of one kind and other. That does not mean, however, that it has made or is making the mistake that the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Jr., of New York City, and Howard University, Washington, D. President Mordecai W. Johnson of C., are making. LORD! HAVE MERCY! In the face of Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court Carl V. Weygandt's vote against us in the recent Ohio State University—Doris Weaver case, President R. R. Wright of Wilberforce University has announced him as the speaker for the University's annual commencement day exercises, June 8. Is it any wonder that the other races have so little respect for our people, their rights and privileges? Is it possible for our leaders, educators and others, to show proper resentment when they and the race have been insulted, mistreated and all but "hamstrung" by prominent and leading members of other classes or races, especially those who seek our votes from time to time, like Judges Weygandt, Florence Allen, and other members of the State Supreme court? NEEDS NEW PASTOR. If the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Jr., of Obsyssinian Baptist church, N. Y. City, wishes to be a Communist, that is his right. If his church does not endorse the "strong-arm methods" and anti-government tenet of Communism, it should be the organization's duty to "fire" the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Jr., who said recently to an audience that packed Park Palace, 3 W. 110th St., New York City, that he would "talk Communism, preach Communism and use everything he has to advance Communism"; that the doors of his church are open to them (Communists) and that they can come there and say anything they want to say. In the face of this statement, there is only one thing for Obsyssinian Baptist church to do, if they do not wish to endorse the Communist's strong-arm methods, or their anti-government tenet, and that is, as we have already said, "fire" the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Jr., who is so unlike his distinguished father, the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Sr., that the difference is undoubtedly a "pain and a headache" to about all of the members of the latter's old congregation which the son now "presides" over. Phone Call from St. Louis Saves Home in Cincinnati Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, Washington, D. C., is reported to have said, recently, at Mt. Olive Baptist church, New York City; "I don't mind being called a Communist. The day will come when being called a Communist will be the highest honor that can be paid to any individual; that day is soon coming." Dr. Johnson is sure looking for trouble of the kind which impends in the case of the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, Jr. Of course he, too, has a right to become a Communist but his two predictions in the second sentence of the foregoing are not to be seriously credited. That is the politest way we can put it. Wonder if President Johnson realizes the fact that he is heading toward an awful fall which is bound to harm, more or less, Howard University? Before this happens, it would be well for him to resign and leave our leading educational institution. This for the "good and welfare" of the school and our people. ANOTHER MOB VIOLENCE ACT. Some months ago, Miss Delilah L. Beasley of Oakland, California, a member of the reportorial staff of the Oakland Daily Tribune who years ago lived in Springfield and Cincinnati, wrote the editor of The Gazette for a copy of our Ohio pioneer Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law. This was sent to her, of course, and as a bill was jointly introduced in the California State Assembly on the request of Miss Beasley. And now comes another "seventh day wonder of the world." The Anti-Lynching bill was unanimously passed in both the Senate and House of Representatives of California, last week. All honor and credit to Miss Beasley for her splendid work. And it is not by any means the first in her case, either. It may be interesting to add that she was a resident of Ohio when the writer was fighting his Anti-Lynching bill thru the State Assembly in 1894, 5 and 6, the year in which we were successful in accomplishing our self-imposed task. TREATMENT SHAMEFUL Everywhere in America, Says the Council of Churches—The Scottsboro Case Typical of the South. New York City.—Declaring that "treatment of 'Negro' citizens almost everywhere in America brings us all to shame," the executive committee of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America said, Sunday, that "interracial understanding and good will have been further jeopardized" by the Scottsboro case. In a public statement, on that disgraceful affair, the executive committee of the Church Federation said: "We have viewed with growing concern the developments attendant upon the Scottsboro case recently brought again to public attention. Interracial understanding and good will have been further jeopardized, and hatred and misunderstanding have been increased. This situation is so crucial that the churches should express their convictions in no uncertain terms. The confidence of all in the soundness of our institutions is shaken when suspicion is raised that justice cannot be secured because of creed, race or color. The issues involved in the Scottsboro case are neither local nor sectional. The whole nation is concerned. Race prejudice is not limited to any section or state. The treatment of 'Negro' citizens almost everywhere in America brings all of us to shame "In view of Christianity's basic recognition of the sacredness of human personality and the spirit of the teachings of Jesus Christ affecting human relations, we urge our church to be more vigilant in their voice their convictions that justice for all, irrespective of creed, race or color, should be assured in America." ALONG distance telephone call, costing $1.60, probably saved hundreds of dollars for a Cincinnati woman. When she left for a recent visit in St. Louis she forgot to turn off the hot-water heater in her apartment. "Break into my apartment and turn off the hot-water heater," she telephoned frantically from St. Louis to the Cincinnati fire tower. Although the request was unusual, William Steinheim, chief operator at the tower, told the excited caller not to worry, and imme- AN OPPORTUNITY: "The Old Reliable" Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents.

GROUND KEEPER BIGG, BIGG, BIGG Prime Sport News Albritton Wins Three Events. With his eyes pointed toward the national interscholastic championships in Chicago, June 16 and 17, Jesse Owens, last week Thursday, decided he would merely romp thru his events in the dual meet between his East Tech, state monarchs, and Central High—a meet that was won by Tech, $6\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$. In cutting down his speed, Jesse ran the century in 9.8 seconds—with a second of the world scholastic record the 220 in 22.7 seconds and broad jumped 23 feet $11\frac{1}{2}$ inches. Dave Albritton, who will accompany Owens to the nationals, won the hurdle races, beating Sylvester Taylor both times, and captured the high jump from Burke, Central's young star. Teddy Yarosz, Pittsburgh's sensational middleweight who has been undefeated in 66 fights, has agree to fight Sammy Slaughter, of Terre Haute, Ind., in a ten-rounder on the John Carroll Alumni Association program at the stadium, June 15 Slaughter fought here, last winter losing on a knockout to "Gorilla" Jones of Akron. The Terre Haute A SAMMY SLAUGHTER youngster still is rated high in the 160-pound division, for he has been winning consistently since facing Jones. Yarosz, a Polish lad, whipped Tommy Freeman, former welterweight champion, in his last start. He boasts knockout triumphs over such outstanding performers, Ed McMahon, Lawyer, Pauli Walker, and Andy DiVodi, Pittsburgh critics think he is the brightest young prospect in the country. He will have to be "there or thereabout" to win from Sammy, June 15. 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; that it is company have the right under the law to force, thrue the courts, 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 area of the city," changed in the occupancy of the district (Ward 11) improved" with modern 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 to low a value of $100,000 per person and wishes to practically confiscate, in Ward 11 and the district, for its "modern housing" project, "with parks," etc. ditely dispatched a fireman to the address she had given him. The fireman, with the aid of a knife, succeeded in entering the apartment through a window. Reaching the basement he found the gas under the hot-water tank burning full blast. For almost half an hour after the gas was turned off, steam poured from both hot and cold faucets, which were opened by the fireman. A serious explosion would have occurred if the steam had not been released, according to the fire department report. OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years’ Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio’s lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: 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. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "sorious 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 if the man's 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 minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among such person so lynched according to the law of the distribution of the persons of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by a mob (93 v. 162 6. Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such 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 inquire with the county, if the next successor tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal jurisdiction. 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 disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11. Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) **OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW** Upon the request of many readers of the Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be 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 CON TEND 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 1900 and universal discrimination, 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 refuse self-respect and have no '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.) Guardian. Switch to Ever-Ready Blades.

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. CENSUS enumerators recently have completed counting 42, 931,042 people in Brazil. While the state spreads over an area greater than that of the United States, nearly every great population center lies on the Atlantic coast. There are ten Brazilian cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants. Of the first four, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Pernambuco (Recife), and Bahia (Sao Salvador), only São Paulo is inland. Rio de Janeiro, the capital, contributed nearly 1,500,000 people to the census enumerators' figures. Amid all Brazil's amazing coastal panorama of verdant forests, mysterious rivers, foaming cascades, untrud mountains and polygot, populous towns, Rio remains the very acme of human interest. As the traveler enters glittering Rio and beholds the alabaster-like city of palms, marble, mountains and color, he is astounded. Here is an illusion from an Arabian Nights dream, a magic supercity never built by man. Look at those amazing mountain peaks that rise from the sea. They cannot be of this world; they are unreal, like a landscape on the moon pictured through a telescope. To enter this great world port you walk down the ganglank and straight out into a formal garden with a big bronze fountain. This leads off into a Fifth avenue-like boulevard which in turn flows into a wide, world-famous beach drive, past embassies, clubs, and more palms and geometric gardens. Dingy docks, pawnshops, pool halls, quick-and-dirty cafes, cheap room houses, toouts and runners, dirt, smells—all the trash and claptrap of many other water fronts, are missing here. Rising fully 1,200 feet and almost straight out of the sea, Sugar Loaf, lofty sentinel of the Rio harbor, is easily the city's outstanding landmark. Incoming air pilots, if half lost in fog or rain, hall its familiar outlines with grunts of relief. In a queer aerial trolley—a dizzy trip which is a supreme triumph for the nervous—you can reach its top. Look at this spectacular city from Sugar Loaf or any high angle, and you see how smoothly in mass, form and color it harmonizes with the shape and shades of its terrestrial environment. You observe that it is cohesive, one work of art; yet it is not a solid city with a checker-board pattern of blocks and squares squeezed into rigid "city limits," like Leipzig or Indianapolis. Sao Paul, second largest of Brazilian cities, is capital and business metropolis of Sao Paulo state. It is one of the oldest cities in South America, but its age has not deprived it of modern commercial development. Fifty years before the Capt. John Smith-Pocontahontas episode at Jamesetown, Va., a Portuguese sailor founded Sao Paulo and married the daughter of a native Indian chief. Later Jesuit missionaries established a church at the settlement and held the first religious service on the feast day in celebration of the conversion of St. Paul. Sao Paulo's Swift Growth. For three centuries Sao Paulo enjoyed isolation, unfettered by colonial laws of Portugal. It was about 1,000 miles from the Portuguese government officials who were, at that time, at Bahia. In 1875 the ball of commercial progress started rolling among the inhabitants, and newcomers were instilled with a boom spirit. In slightly more than fifty years the city has increased in population from 26,000 to nearly 900,000. New streets that were built were made broad and straight and flanked with modern buildings. The railway depot, municipal and state government buildings, museums, libraries, schools, and some of its new business buildings would be flattering additions to many cities of the world of the same size. Three huge public gardens and more than fifty parks break the monotony of the miles of streets. Sao Paulo might properly be called the city that coffee built. Many of the palatial residences are those of coffee "barons." In Sao Paulo streets huge trucks, heavy carts, and perspiring men laden with sacks of coffee are always within eyeshot. Coffee was not introduced into Brazil until two centuries ago, but the price of coffee now largely governs the rise and fall of Sao Paulo's prosperity. While Ethiopia is the original home of coffee, Sao Paulo state has adopted the greater portion of the descendants of the original coffee berries. If all the coffee plantations in the state were in one plantation, it would cover an area as large as Delaware and Rhode Island combined. In a single year more than one and a quarter million pounds of coffee are produced in the state. There are more than seven coffee trees for every man, woman and child in the state. Pernambuco is a Gateway. More than 8,500 miles of railroads now use Sao Paulo as a hub. The railroad from Sao Paulo to Santos, the city's port on the Atlantic, has one of the world's most profitable steel highways, although its upkeep per mile is staggering. In the 87 miles of sinuous tracks between the cities, trata must climb from sea level at Santos to nearly 3,000 feet at Sao Paulo. In one seven-mile section the line rises more than 2,000 feet. Pernambuco, third largest city, the easternmost city of the western hemisphere and is called the gateway to South America for Europe-South America-bound aviators. Pernambuco state, of which the city is the capital, and two other states, make up the northeastern shoulder of their continent. To Brazilians, the city is known as Recife. If a line were drawn from Pernambuco due north, it would just miss the western extremity of the Azores and intersect the latitude of New York city nearer to Portugal than to New York. Dakar, westernmost city of Africa, is only half the distance from Pernambuco that Liverpool is from New York. Pernambuco noses into all direct transportation lanes from European and North Atlantic ports that do business with ports south of Pernambuco. Shipping from New York, Boston, or Baltimore, or Liverpool or Llona, reaches Rio de Janiero or Buenos Aires by passing Pernambuco's harbor. Many of its inhabitants are descendants of the Dutch and Portuguese, both of whom once claimed the city and surrounding country. Pernambuco owes much of its progress to the influence of these races, who fostered agriculture and commerce. The old section of Pernambuco shows its Portuguese origin in the varicolored plaster-faced buildings that line some of the narrow cobblestone-paved streets in the downtown section; while here and there steep gabled houses and business structures recall the quarter century of Dutch occupation that began ten years after the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock. Until a few years ago, large oceangoing boats had to anchor far out in the harbor. Up-to-date docks were constructed and railroads were built, reaching into the productive hinter- Moving Day in Brazil. land. As a result, Pernambuco has be come in a short time one of the import gateways to eastern Brazil. Sugar, tobacco, lumber, fruit, cotton, rubber and coffee that once graced the backs of mules, now flow into the city by rail in vast quantities. More than forty sugar mills in the capital city attest the state's sugar production. Textile mills, shoe, soap and lock factories are also there. Most of Pernambuco's business is carried on in the old section of the city. The city market perhaps strikes the fancy of Americans more than any other feature. An abundance of rich, luscious tropical fruit is everywhere to be seen. Bahia Has a Fine Harbor. Bahia, which contributes about 330,000 to the census figures, was the first Portuguese settlement founded in Brazil. To Brazilians it is Sao Salvador. According to the letters of Amerigo Vespercel, he and his followers spent several months in All Saints bay in the neighborhood of Bahia during the early years of the Sixteenth century. Bahia was not officially recognized by the Portuguese government, however, until 1549 when the first governor general of Brazil set up a colonial government there. Bahia was the capital of Brazil from that time until 1763 when the government was removed to Rio de Janeiro. The harbor Bahia faces is one of the finest on the east coast of South America. Vessels from many world ports are anchored offshore, while smaller boats with local cargoes come and go like "schools" of water beetles. The traveler's first impression of Bahia, as he sails up the harbor toward the city, is that there are really two separate towns. A congested settlement hugs the shore line, while on a cliff in the background, 200 feet above the roof tops, the fringe of another settlement is visible. In the narrow streets of the lower town and among the bordering warehouses half-naked porters, perspiring freely in the tropical heat, spend their days moving cargoes of cocoa, tobacco, cotton, sugar, rubber and fruits, all products of Bahia state, brought to the port by railroad trains and high-wheeled donkey carts. The customs house, depot and offices of foreign firms interested in Bahia commodities also are in the lower town. Most of Bahia's cocoa, the largest exportable product of Bahia state, is shipped to the United States. Upper Bahia is reached by elevators, steps and winding roads. Here and there in the narrow streets of this portion of the city, sky blue and delicate pink houses, some of whose plastered fronds are deeply pock-marked, take the traveler back a century or two in Bahia's history. Within a stone's throw of these districts there are wide modern thoroughfares, lined with fine shops, banks, theaters, office and government buildings. A park or a garden now and then breaks the monotony of the solid rows of masonry. Smart Brocks for MI Smart Frocks for Miss Six-Year-Old By CHERIE NICHOLAS MOTHER and big sister need not think they are the only ones who go stepping out in dramatically staged-style shows these days. There's a rival attraction on, which is MOTHER and big sister need not think they are the only ones who go stepping out in dramatically staged-style shows these days. There's a rival attraction on, which is about to snatch much of the glory from prideful grown-ups who go pireouetting down fashion's runway. It's the juvenile style parades which leading establishments through the country are presenting this season. These illiptian style shows carry a very special message to onlookers that designers are making it a point to inject "style" in the full sense of the word. They are not enough that youngsters' clothes be simply utilitarian and dainty and lovely but we are given to understand that the modern child's wardrobe must bespeak a sophisticated styling which registers genuine swank. This element of ultra-mode which is being so strongly advocated in the field of juvenile design flings quite a challenge to mothers who "do the family sewing." However, what with the helpful patterns with full sewing directions and the perfectly fascinating and inexpensive materials which are so easily available these days the task is made a joy rather than a burden. It adds greatly to fabric interest that so many handsome new weaves made of synthetic yarn have been launched during recent years, such as the new crepes and shears and lacy weaves as well as materials which look like tweeds and suitings of various description. The beauty of these made-of-bemberg and rayon fabrics is that they wash and iron as easily as a linen handkerchief. They are sun-fast, too, and resistant to perspiration. Another comforting thought is that white fabrics of bemberg always stay white. The trio of modish little-tot cos- STRING KNIT FOR SPORTS IS LATEST The fashion moguls are looking to their knitting this spring. Knitted costumes for sports and street are among the newest things shown in our move up and coming shops. And the big favorite now, the smart, "string knit," two and three piece sports outfits made out of knitted twine in natural color have a knowing air that has taken the town by storm. And it's really twine—the kind you use to tie up packages. Its neutral color and its smart dull surface makes it one of the most popular fabrics for current sports costumes. Usually there is a touch of color—a striped sweater with a solid color coat, or a checked blazer with a solid color dress. The new knitted suits and dresses are tailored and styled like cloth suits, and a trick of the season is the use of an elastic knit which snaps back into shape. New Fabric for Evening White cotton net is a new and smart material for summer evening gowns. Embroidered white organie is back, sometimes having big polka dots in color. The dark colors in tulle gowns are especially smart, and each of them has its jacket, in either a matching or contrasting shade. Little ruffled jackets of the same material are worn with the organdie, organza and starched chiffon gowns. Plaids Are Now Featured In New Evening Clothes Mainbinder uses plaid for evening gowns. One is of candy pink and white plaid taffeta, designed with a V decoletage, a closely fitting hipline and a skirt flaring into fullness below the kneelline. It is worn with an el bow-length cape of the same taffeta Red and green, and red and black taffeta frocks are designed along the same lines and worn with jackets or capes to match. Plaid silk dresses are smarter than printed ones this spring. Many of them have jackets of solid colors and it is very chic to have a jacket of the same colored plaid in larger squares Your Copy or an Acqua White Cotton Net Smart Plaids for Style Miss Six-Year-Old JULIE KROEM tunes in the picture tell a story of last word chieh when it comes to what the little miss of six or thereabouts will be wearing during the coming months. The first little girl has on a jacket-and-dress costume which will measure up in matter of "style" to mother's newest spring outfit. It is made of a two-tone red checked crepe of bemberg and rayon mixture. A perfectly stunning material this, which will endure any amount of hard wear. It's all "dolled up" with organdy fixings, too, as it should be to be stylish. The diminutive ocean pearl buttons on the collar and the pocket are just too cunning for words. The demure little lady, seated in the center of the picture, has on a frock which most any mother will be wanting to copy. The material for this darling dress is dotted chiffon of bemberg. This model features the new dropped shoulder. Tiny puffed sleeves, a round yoke and an inset band in the skirt all of finely plented net add to the exquisite daintness of the frock. The ribbon around the waist is may with red-red cherries to tell you that it's springtime. In every little girl's wardrobe there should be at least one party frock. The model pictured is in pastel pink chiffon of bemberg. The skirt is full as a dress to wear to dancing school should be. That's why this adorable young is carrying a muff of tulle to match her Pierrot ruff. She has no doubt been doing some fancy dancing. For ordinary party wear this dress is lovely without the muff and tulle ruff. © 1933, Western Newspaper Union. I We are going to wear lots of seersucker this summer. It is quite one of the smartest materials mentioned for sportswear. When the young lady in the picture goes sporty and has an urge to play tennis she will don this sylof roof of striped seersucker. It wraps around and ties in the front. It's the easiest thing in the world to slip into, having no troublesome buttons, and it allows the freedom which an active young woman demands. In repose it has a slim and youthful silhouette. Not only are the shops showing sylof frocks, but they are featuring sylo palazas of stunning plaids and stripes which have the same practical fastenings. Odd-Length Coats The newest ensembles feature coats in odd lengths just below the hip, knee length, three-quarter, five-eighths and seven-eighths lengths. Full-length coats are also shown.

Besides these excursions behind the everyday operation of the telephone, more unusual phases of the industry also will be demonstrated. One of these is the speech inverter which turns spoken words up-sidedown and produces an unintelligible scramble of speech. This device is used to insure privacy on overseas telephone calls. Another is the oscillograph which measures the complexity and range of sounds that must be accurately transmitted and reproduced in order to give high quality telephone service.
