The seven Democratic councilwoman Dr. E. E. E. of the four candidates for the Council in the 18th Ward) to succeed George. This job will not net about $675 since the councilman's pay is $150 a month. Not so bad, these days, is it One "Blossom Triplet" (George) gone; two (Payne and Bundy) remain, with Dr. E. E. George and Dr. A. E. opposing them in the present campaign for election to the Council from the 11th and 17th Wards, respectively. George and Bannick aspire to be municipal judges.
The Democratic precinct committee of the 17th Ward are urging Atty. Clyde C. Perry. E. 55th St., to stand as a candidate for the Council in that strongly Republican ward where O. A. Childress and Councilman Bundy are candidates. Dr. Childress was the latter's campaign manager, two years ago.
Councilman Herman H. Finkle last week filed what Clerk Louis Simon of the Board of Elections said was the largest petition ever submitted up to that particular time by Councilman candidateanning from a ward. Finkle, who has served eight terms, had 5,353 names on his petition from the Twelfth Ward. Don't tell Finkle's alleged opponents as it might give them heart failure.
Mrs. Malcolm L. McBride, Laurence Norton, Alfred A. Benedes and Mrs. Mary B. Martin have been selected by a nominating sub-committee of the Cleveland Schools Emergency Committee as that group's choice of candidates for the School Board election, this fall. This automatically just about puts the Rev. David Ormoneider Walker out of the contest. Without this support, his candidacy is thru now! Remember this prediction. Then, too, the daily newspapers' announcement, last week, of Atty. Alex H. Martin's candidacy for a four-year term on the Municipal court bench came somewhat as a surprise especially on whose candidacy it has the same effect that Mrs. Martin's has on Walker's candidacy for the School Board.

A discussion of the NRA and its relationship to the Afro-American, and the encyclicals dealing with the reformation of the social order which were issued by Pope Leo XIII and Pope Plus XI, will open the ninth annual convention of the Catholic Inter-Racial Federation here, Sept. 2.

LYNCH-MURDER MUST GO, TOO!
While he is organizing the nation's forces for an anti-crime drive, Dr. Moley may well turn his attention to a crime peculiarly American. It is the crime of lynching, more prevalent in the south, but one which has cast its bloody blot on the page of many a state's history.
The outrageous killing of two young Negroes, Dan Pippen and A. T. Harden, age 18 and 16 respectively, by an Alabama mob furnishes sufficient incentive for vigorous action in the lynching situation. It is clearly apparent that something more than local initiative is needed in running murderous mobs to earth, in vigorously prosecuting the members of these mobs. The elements of race and local instincts felling into "to outside meddling" and other forces inimical to the effective administration of justice too often enter in. It was that way in the Alabama case, altho the nation must accord Judge Henry B. Foster its sheer respect for the vigorous manner in which he charged the grand jury investigating the affair, branding lynching as murder. "Mob violence," he said, "is the greatest enemy to the orderly processes of law." That is true of any form of modern mass crime, and the greatest enemy to uphold "race superiority in flaunting their subsectional prejudices are no better than the gangsters who murder in the streets.
There was grave doubt about the guilt of any of the five Negroes imprisoned in connection with the death of Vaudine Maddox, a white girl; the "evidence" consisted largely of rumor and gossip. But had the case been complete, the duty of the citizens of a sovereign state was to concede the accused the right to be heard in court, to a trial by jury. This the mob which killed Pipen and Harden and left Elmore Clark for dead seemed determined to prevent. Boasts were made that there would be no incarceration of the Scottsboro case." After the incarceration of the shifft of Tuscaloosa county, who meekly rendered his captives to the mob, attempted to blame the incident on eastern attorneys who had interested themselves in the Negroes' case, saying they were "directly responsible for the lynching."
Executions in the underworld are due to be investigated and stamped out in the government's anti-crime drive. The killing of unfortunate against whom the finger of suspicion points, in communities easily inflamed by race prejudice or other, must and also. The government's crime bureau ascertain without delay the reason for the breakdown of law enforcement in the "lynching belt" and recommend the correction of this condition by whatever means feasible.—The Cleveland News, Aug. 21, '33.

Thos. W. Fleming by Gov. George
White (Dem.)—To Practice
Law Again.
Thos. W. Fleming, E. 40th St., was
notified, Wednesday, by Gov. Geo.
White that his citizenship had been
restored. Tom was released from
the Ohio Penitentiary, several months
ago, after serving part of a long sen-
JOHN R.
tence. Last week, he received his "Final Release From Parole" given him, several months ago. Fleming said, Wednesday: "I'm not going to go back into politics. I have had enough. That's what got me into all that trouble. I hope soon to resume the practice of law." Fleming also said that he had been a member of the Bai'ah assembly, a Persian unit with approximately 75 Bai'ahians in Cleveland, since 1913. "The whole world will have to come to it if religion is going to survive. The religion of Bai'ah is just concentrated religion," he said.

FAVORS LIMITED U. S.
CONTROL OF SCHOOLING.
Limited federal control over education was advocated in a recent address by Prof. R. G. Jones, former superintendent of schools in Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church. He said that in his judgment the federal government should:
PLAN and estimate the cost of a faculty of education.
SET the standard for scholarship and preparation of instructors.
DETERMINE overhead based on units—city and rural.
SET up flexible standards for the cost of operation and standard costs of building construction through district units.
These cost estimates, Jones said, could be available to the public as a basis of judgment on the decisions of local school boards.
Jones said, "determines what its children shall study. No one would dare set up a course in toe dancing if there were not a demand for such a course.
"Education should be stabilized, and there should be no tearing of limb from limb in our educational system even in such times of depression as we have experienced in the last few years." Jones defended the cost of education. He said that for a time a check had to be placed on costs, but that it was not fair to pay to go back to the "three Rs." He said it was no cheaper. He went over the cost of various courses and said the cost per pupil per subject was from $9 to $12 in the last school year.
BISHOP HEARD
FOUND GUILTY
Of Misappropriating About $18,000
of A. M. E. Church Funds—Wilberforce University Struck.
Bishop W. H. Heard of Philadelphia, who was in charge of this, the Third Episcopal District in which Wilberforce University is located, was found guilty, by a committee which met here, last week Wednesday, of misappropriating something in the neighborhood of $18,000 collected in the Third Episcopal District as Educational Money raised for Wilberforce University during the previous quarter.
At the meeting of the trustees of the university, last June, a special committee consisting of Prof. W. G. Pearson of Durham, N. C.; Rev. J. A. Charleston, Detroit; Rev. H. Y. Arnett, Philadelphia; Prof. Ira T. Bryant, Nashville; Rev. R. B. M. Smith, New York; Rev. J. F. M. Smith, Louisville, and Rev. J. F. Williams of Columbus was appointed to investigate the charge.
Prof. Bryant read extracts of laws of Ohio stating it was a statutory criminal offense for any officer of a religious organization to misappropriate funds. He stated the committee had made its findings and now it was the duty of the trustee board to take criminal action against Bishop Heard for the funds misappropriated during his administration as bishop of the Third Episcopal District.

Cutting the pay of our industrial workers below that of other workers is robbing the business firms (they patronize) of the country of thousands of dollars daily, particularly in the South.
The editorial, "Lynching Must Go, Too," from the Cleveland Daily News of Monday, republished elsewhere in this paper, is one of the best and most timely publications of the kind to appear in any of the newspapers of the country in recent months. We are certainly greatly indebted to Editor Earle Martin of The News, for it.

It seems that unjust, unfair and illegal discrimination against our inmates has crept into the Soldiers and Sailors Home at Xenia, a state institution, with the very natural result of a protest from the Hon. Chester K. Gillespie, our only representative in the State Assembly. Here is another opportunity for the state organization of the N. A. A. C. P.
---
That the South is "in the saddle" at Washington there can be no doubt. The NRA quotations for the industrial workers of the South show this beyond all question or doubt. The latest, however, comes from Baltimore where our people refused to participate in an NRA demonstration, Wednesday night, because Lieutenant Colonel William Sharpe of the regular army insisted that they march at the end of the procession.
The appraisal for the U. S. Home Owners Loan corporation at Memphis has announced in the Memphis Daily Commercial-Appeal that properties owned by our people were not eligible for federal aid because they owed too much on the principal. Too many of our people in the past have started in to purchase property with too small down payments, leaving the interest on the balance of the principal too large for them to carry, in many instances even when times were good. While we do not endorse in toto the position taken in the Memphis Appeal, yet there is a lesson in it for our people generally.
The least that can be said is that Gov. George White's pardon of former Councilman Thos. W. Fleming was a very gracious act that will be fully appreciated by many of our people, principally because it restores Tom's citizenship. It was unexpected because the Governor is an "organization" Democrat and Tom was an "organization" Republican through his political career. Now, if the local courts will permit him to resume the practice of the law, it will afford Tom an opportunity to start all over again, something he, his wife and friends will thoroly appreciate.
A dispatch from Columbus, Wednesday, announced that Jesse Owens, "the dash and broad jump sensation" of the season "was there preparing to register at Ohio State University." Education, it seems, does not always engender self and race respect. What the president and board of trustees of Ohio State University did to two of our girl graduates of that institution and to all of our people of the state of Ohio, as a result of its state supreme court decision in the Doris Weaver case, does not mean a thing to Jesse Owens who is certainly old enough to thoroly understand the situation, at least after it has been carefully explained to him many times. Too bad! "Twas ever thus.
FEARS WELL GROUNDED.
Before he stepped out of City Council, Monday evening, Councilman George asked for action on his proposed amendment to the city charter to abolish the run-off primary, but later agreed to a postponement of a vote until Sept. 6 after Councilman
Wm. R. Hopkins asserted that the abolition of the primary would, in a large field of candidates, permit the election of officials who did not receive a majority vote. He pointed out that it would be possible for a candidate receiving only a small percentage of the total vote to go into office if the rest of the vote were scattered among a number of other candidates. Easily, one-third of the total Republican vote of the city of Cleveland is Afro-American. So Councilman Hopkins' fear of an Afro-American mayor for the metropolis of Ohio, in case George's amendment to the city charter is accepted by the voters and the run-off primary thus abolished, is not without some foundation.

Columbus, O., Aug. 22—Jesse Owens, the dash and broad jump sensation from Cleveland East Tech, is here today, preparing to register at Ohio State University. The track and field star said he expected to register within the next two days. During his first day on the campus, Owens, who holds the world's interstolastic broad jump record and who has equaled the world's record for jumping, will have had long talk with two former Buckeye track stars—Jack Keller, star hurdler, and George Simpson, the runner. Jess is to be appointed a messenger by Gov. Geo. White.
"Kid Chocolate" Prefers Spain.
Madrid, Spain.—"Kid Chocolate" thinks this country is a mighty fine place in which to live. "Spain is okay with me," said "The Keed" when asked what he thought of it as compared with America. "Over here," Chocolate said, "you do not find people who do not like you simply because you are a different color, or for one reason and another, as is true in America." Chocolate has two or three rights for the near future. He is matched for one here, another in London and still another in Australia, returning here for a second contest. When Chocolate came to Europe he announced his intentions to remain, and so far that plan has not been altered. Chocolate, you know, holds a pair of titles, the junior lightweight and the featherweight crown, and he is expected to defend both during the present season.

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 York have also enacted anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other state and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows:
Section
6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined.
6279. "Serious injury" defined.
6280. Damages in case of assault.
6281. Damages in case of lynching.
6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching.
6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another.
6284. Limitations of action.
6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy.
6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees.
6287. County's right of action against member of mob.
6288. County's right of action against another county.
6289. Non-relief from prosecution.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater, motion 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 dollars 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.
COLOR-LINES IN CODES
Protests Filed With the President Against Them—How the NRA Is Affecting Our Workers in Many Parts of the South.
New York City.—The growing alarm of our people over the injection of the color-line into the codes being adopted for the basic industries and into the voluntary NRA agreements being signed by all businesses was communicated directly to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Aug. 15, in a telegram sent by the president. The NRA clared there is increasing evidence that our people "are being singled out, in one manner or another, largely because of their color, to receive less than the minimum benefits of the National Industrial Recovery Act." Approximately 12,000 were exempted from the minimum wage and maximum hours provisions of the cotton textile code and despite the assurance that this code was not to be regarded as a standard for all workers, the NRA posed have all made a difference between colored and white workers.
Merchants and manufacturers who
draw on the power of
our people, especially
the poor.
where they are from fifteen to fifty per cent of the population, will receive little benefit from the NRA unless they are paid at least the minimum wages. The telegram urges the appointment of Afro-Americans to the NRA to search staff of the advisory board and to the post of deputy administrator and concludes:
"We bring this petition in all earnestness because we believe that the fortunes of the great laboring and middle classes as well as those of the farmers and industrialists cannot be improved permanently if the fortunes of our citizens are ignored or impaired by legislative and administrative policies recognizing and codifying the color-line."
Our Women at $4.50 a Week
Replaced by Whites, at $12,
Memphis, Tenn.—One of the many
instances of how the NRA is affecting
the "Negro" in the South was
reported here from the Tri-State man-
ufacturing company of this city which
discharged fourteen colored workers
on July 31, the day before the
war, hired white, hired whites.
One of the women discharged had
worked there for nine years and
another for seven years, with no
complaints against their efficiency. They
worked eight hours and forty-five
minutes a day for $4.50 a week. The
whites are working eight hours a day
for $12 a week.

homes, schools, churches, and public buildings are now being made daily is known as a "Garctector"—a word that is a synonym for fire prevention. It automatically detects a possible fire while it is yet small and harmless, making the possibility of a fire more direct to the municipal fire department without human aid or delay.
One of the most interesting features of the "Garctector" is that the fire detecting wire is installed in a most inconspicuous manner, thereby making fire detection available in the finest of finished rooms where, from an artistic and decorative point of view (sprinkler heads and thermostats would not be tolerated.)
Besides automatically calling the firemen, it directs them by means of a series of red lights to the actual part of the building where the fire is starting. In large institutions, schools and theatres, the "Characteur" is being installed with sound reproducing and loud speaker equipment which informs the assembly that there is a fire emergency, counsels them to keep cool-headed and expedites their exit by playing a spirited military march punctuated with advice as to the best and quickest way of leaving the building.

New York City.—With the perfection of the new "garterctor" by engineers of Garrison Fire Detecting System, Inc., the largest single contribution factor to the nation's annual fire toll of 10,000 lives and as many more seriously malmed—the lack of a dependable means to avoid delayed alarms—is now being removed by nation-wide installations of the system, it was revealed here recently.
A recent survey by New York fire authorities also disclosed that a number of disastrous fires, including the one of the Cunard Pier, resulted in major conflagrations due to the errors of human judgment as to the necessity of calling the fire department.
"Tell me of a fire anywhere in New York City five minutes after it starts and in five minutes there will be no fire. Minutes of delay, after the first five minutes in advising us add hours to the job of extinguishing fires, and the probability of property and life loss," stated Fire Commissioner John J. Dorman.
The Garrison Fire Detecting System which was first introduced last year and which, during the past few years, has been installed in tent where many installations in

Where There’s A Will There’s A Way
Walter R. McCornack, local archi-
tect, head of “a slum clearance” re-
housing 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
under the Iaw to foree, thru the
courts, the sale of any land in these
areas they desire. This will practical-
ly be confiseation 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, recent-
ly “chartered for slum clearance in
the city,” intends to bring about “a
change in the occupancy of the dis-
trict (Ward 11) improved” with mod-
ern housing for lower (poorer) in-
come 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
rental basis the value of the land it
wishes to practically confiseate, in
Ward 11 and the district for its
“modern housing” project, “with

Chic Hairdress a Necessary Luxury
THE HAIR CUT
AS YOUNG-LOOKING, as smart-looking, as good-looking as your "permanent" is a beauty secret which is no longer a beauty secret, for we are all discovering for ourselves how greatly are our charms enhanced via a perfect hairdress.
You are expected to put yourself in the hands of beauty specialistists these days who study your features with a view to giving you a hairdress which will make you good-looking even if you are homely. They can do it, too! Perhaps you have heard about the new machineless permanent wave. It is proving nothing less than a sensation in the realm of beauty culture. It is so simply and comfortably, done as to be almost unbelievable. A clean odorless vapor takes the place of electric current. The entire procedure is that simple one can actually walk around or play the piano while getting one's permanent wave.
As to this matter of playing up to individual type in dressing the hair we feel that the illustrations herewith are particularly well-chosen to demonstrate that point. What a difference! These lovely, flattering, delightsomely comfortable coiffures as compared to the burdensome hairpin-laden long tresses of yore. Nowadays instead of scraggy necklines and unsightly "scolding locks," law and order and beauty prevail. Then, too, if your particular type of beauty calls, perhaps, for a little soft curl here and there to lessen the suggestion of overhigh cheekbones or, mayhap, a clever exposure of a well-shaped earlobe might "turn the trick"—whatever the accent required the trained hair dresser is alert to the face. It is happily assuring as to the matter of playing up one's individuality.
If you are very,very young and
NEW-LENGTH CAPE
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
This lovely simple ensemble, which might well be called a Paris classic, comes from the ateller of Lanvin. Its simplicity is its charm. There is a note of embellishment in the soft bow of wide metal ribbon which ties on one shoulder. A handsome dark velvet cape contrasts the exquisite pastel tone of the frost. Velvet capes of this new length are in high favor with the smart Parisienne. Discriminating women take particular delight in choosing them with a view to providing a perfect color accent to their costumes.
without a furrow on you brow the brushed-back-from-the-forhead hairdress and "bob" shown in two views at the top of this group is for you. Note the fetching softly curled lock over the temple.
Just to convince you that older women are in on all the beauty secrets and that they are not forgotten in the scheme of things, we have included in this galaxy of attractive femininity a charming haired lady. Hers is a most gracious and inspiring example of the artistry with which one's hairdress may be suited to type. Can't you just fancy to yourself what a lot of compliments she will be receiving as to her lovely wave, when she presides at the next meeting of the woman's club?
We would especially call your attention to the lovely feather-blown wave which is pictured to the right center. Do not get feather-blown confused with windblown, for they are different. The type shown glories in soft wisp of hair which flutter caressingly yet orderly about the features in a manner flattering to most women.
The call of the hour is for masses of ringlets at the nape of the neck. This reigning vogue is aptly illustrated (two views) in the model below.
And now just a word or two more of this beauty discourse—some one has said of the French woman that when she leaves her boudouir she is "finished." So sure is she of herself and her appearance that she finds no need to resort to a lipstick or powder puff in public. We thought that possibly there might be somewhat of a moral to be gleaned from this message for some few of us.

NEWEST NECKLINE
DIAMOND SHAPED
If you don't want to appear dead on the vine—the fashion vine, that is—you'd better start making your neckline go diamond shaped. We all can wear diamonds of this kind even if we can't claim any set in platinum, and the trick is very simple, after you know how. Schiaparelli's most potent example of this mode is done with curled cire feathers set in a row, pointing down the back, points over the shoulders and pointed in the front where it meets.
Another way of convincing the public that you are "on the team"—fashionably speaking—is not to forget to attach "Angel Wings" to your best coat or jacket. Sometimes the wings are set in from the back of the shoulder and fly forward rather than the reverse.
Down in Front and High
in Back, Fall Hat Mode
Down in front and up in back is the rule for fall hats. The high crowns of this summer have compromised with the general masculine protest, and have come half way down to normal—that is, they have come down in front.
High-backed turbans appear to be the order of the day, some of them built up in points and angles, others achieving the high-back effect by means of quills and drapes.
The beret in satin or velvet continues to be the big news of the early fall showings, however, pulled down over the eyes, with slightly more height in back.
Machine Stitching
Never "help" an article through the sewing machine. Let the feeder do its own work. If pulled through, the stitches will be irregular and it usually means broken or bent needles.

In Holland? No, in Washington State.
Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.—WNU Service.
WITH large groups of men returning to lumber mills and camps weekly, one of Washington's leading industries is showing signs of new life after thirty months' virtual shutdown.
Washington, with only brief moments of economic setback, has been forging ahead agriculturally since November 1851, when 24 white pioneers—12 adults and 12 children—disembarked from a schooner in Elliott bay, an arm of Puget sound.
Cheerleast the land looked to these pioneers as they set about making their new homesite habitable. The women and children, disconsolate, huddled under trees near the water's edge while the men scrambled to rescue their belongings from the fast incoming tide.

agitation for a v self in the Nether.
Dutch farmers, children, working wooden shoes.
One of the women, clasping her two-months-old child, sat on a log and wept. To her the primeval evergreen forest, sweeping up from the gray waste of the sound to misted heights of snow-capped mountains, suggested only nostalgic longing to go back to the Illinois prairies.
Had the young mother been able to envisage what the son she held in her arms was destined to look upon, her tears would have been forgotten in a dream of wonder and delight; for that son has lived to see the settlement of 24 grow to a city of nearly 400,000–Seattle.
He can say truthfully that from the very beginning he lived off the country. Because the colonists had brought no cattle with them, there was no milk to give the baby that winter of 1851, and he was fed the broth of clams dug from the beach. The diet must have been nourishing; for today, a hacle octogenarian, he still takes active part in the affairs of the city that he has watched spring from nothing to magnificence in the span of his years.
The story of Seattle mirrors that of the whole commonwealth of Washington. In less than a hundred years the Evergreen state has emerged from wilderness to modern civilization, crowding three centuries of history into one. Spokane, largest city of eastern Washington, with a population of more than 115,000, celebrated in September, 1931, its fifteenth anniversary. The United States census of 1800 found in Washington territory fewer than 12,000 persons; that of 1930 recorded more than a million and a half in the state.
Frontier Life Still There
The Evergreen state is so close to its beginnings that in parts of it frontier life, far from being a half-forgotten memory, is a thing of the living present. Within 50 miles of Seattle skyscrapers, hardy pioneers are wrestling their living from the wilds of the Olympic peninsula, just as did their fathers of the Oregon trail. Many of them must back-pack supplies to their homes up mountain trails that wind through well-nigh impenetrable fastnesses of untouched forest. A state senator from Jefferson county, the son of one of the earliest peninsula settlers, bought an automobile only a few years ago and built for it as convenient a garage as possible—35 miles from his house!
To see Washington for the first time is to experience the thrill of discovering a new country. To live within its borders, then to go away from it and return after a few years' absence is to know that thrill again.
From islands to mountain heights is only a step in Washington. The amazing contrasts of scenery are keynotes of the state's perpetual charm.
Shukans, 9,083 feet high, geologically one of the oldest mountains in North America, thrusts its rugged pinnacles against a sky of perfect blue, vertical ridges and rugged crags of bare rock showing black among tatters of ice gorges and foaming cuttacles. From the serrated peaks banners of snow wave in a high, clean wind, while mists rise like smoke from the forests below the ice line, now wrapping a bold promontory in downy whiteness, now breaking free to fly away in clouds.
"Holland of America."
One of the last of five Washington volcanoes to fling its fires, Mount Baker still occasionally breathes smokily from several craters near its summit; but its head, rising to an altitude of 10,750 feet, is turbidized with eter-
nal snow, and vast fields of ice send 12 major glaciers coursing down its sides.
From the sublime heights the road flows down to pastoral lowlands and fertile fields. Whatcom county is known as "the Holland of America," for it is the home of Dutch bulb culture in the Northwest. For more than 20 years commercial bulb growing, which now is spreading throughout the entire Puget Sound area, has been an important industry there. The little town of Lynden shipped 14 carloads of bulbs in 1931. When the tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, and narcissi are in springtime bloom, it takes little imagination for a visitor to fancy himself in the Netherlands.
Dutch farmers and their wives and children, working the gardens, wear wooden shoes.
Many quiet old customs of the Netherlands are followed in the countryside about Lynden, where hundreds of bulb growers from the mother country make their homes. A jolly old Geldierer fashions the shoes of alder wood, working with knives and chisels. He can make six pairs a day to his customers' measures. The wooden shoes are worn only in the fields. At night they are set in orderly rows on the back porches—father's, mother's, and the children's in graduated sizes like Goldillocks' bears.
Bellingham, the Tulip city, fourth in size in Washington and seat of the largest of the three state normal schools, presents a kaleidoscope. Its Chuckanut Marine drive, a splendid paved highway hewed from the high shoulder of mountainous hills overlooking Bellingham bay and the lovely San Juan islands, is one of the wonder roads of the state. Everywhere throughout the city are green lawns and flowers. They even display their restful charm along the water front, among industrial plants, and about the entrance of the coal mine that supplies hundreds of industries up and down the Pacific coast. Bellingham has one salmon cannery where, in the fishing season, more than a half million pound cans are prepared for the market each day.
Lumber and Agriculture
Fishing is an important source of income to many towns and cities about the sound, but lumbering and agriculture hold the major positions. Near Bellingham is the government experimental farm, where Dutch bulbs are cultivated and scientifically improved, and not far away is a large co-operative poultry hatchery devoted to building up superior chicken breeds.
The poultry station boasts the champion laying hen of the United States, whose record of 350 eggs in 365 days is surpassed only by that of a Canadian hen. Ten years ago Whatcom county imported most of its supply of eggs. Today eggs are among its principal exports.
Dairying is no whit behind poultry raising, and sugar-beet culture is growing by leaps and bounds. The striking thing is that such diversified resources have been developed in a country whose greatest wealth has been and still is in its forests.
Tacoma is "the lumber capital of America," a charming, Old-world-seeing city on Commencement bay, the famous deep-water harbor surveyed in 1841 by Charles Wilkes, the discoverer of the Antarctic continent. Ships from many distant ports come to the docks for cargoes, not only of lumber and all sorts of lumber and timber products, but of flour, refined ores, and the abundant produce of the Puyaup valley.
Yakima is famous for its apples; but to visit the "Apple Capital of the World," one goes north, "over the hump," to Wenatchee, the town of 12,000 population that has shipped 24,386 carloads of apples in a single year. Together, Wenatchee and Yakima shipped 45,231 carloads of apples in 1930, more than 40 per cent of the country's commercial apple crop, and, despite the lowest prices in history, realized a profit.
Spokane is in the center of a great playground. Within 50 miles of it are 56 lakes. The citizen who emulates Izaak Walton can fish in a different lake every week-end of the year and have some likely angler's Edens left for holidays; or, if he prefers fishing in running water, he can flick a fly in any one of a hundred trout streams.

FINANCE — Bonds repudiated? Gov. Fultrell of Arkansas, who sponsored legislation cutting down interest rates on $91,000,000 highway bonds, and removing their prior lien on motor vehicle fees. Bondholders say this is repudiation of state's contract.
BUSINESS — Horace Bowker, president of the American Agricultural Chemical Co., finds farmers no harder hit by depression than industry has been.
HEALTH — Take a refreshing salt bath after exercising to keep fit, advises Emily Banks of the Worcester Salt Institute. Isis Lancaster, featured in Educational "Torchy" Comedies is one budding star who gets plenty of exercise.
SAFETY — A disk that means a car is ready to render first aid. Miss Margaret Johnson of the Red Cross Division of Johnson & Johnson points out the medallion which signifies that the car owner is ready to patch your cuts and bruises if you hall him in emergency.
FASHION — Get mannish young woman! Peggy Hopkins Joyce, appearing in Paramount's "International House" selects light gray flannel slacks and double breasted jacket for beach and sports wear.
From Robot Pilot to First Aid Kit Modern Plane Is Equipped For Every Emergency
By DOC SCHNURMACHER
ROARING Westward over the Rockies on the Laramie-Los Angeles run, at an attitude of 9,000 feet, Air Mail plane C 288, carrying a ton of mail, waggies its wings in salute to a fleeing passenger air iner purring Eastward towards Newark Airport.
A thousand feet beneath those planes in the clear, keen air, the white covered peaks of the Rockies with their fringe of timberline seem desolate and solitary . . . an age-old world that has never advanced beyond primeval times.
In the planes themselves, in marked contrast to the terrain beneath the latest devices of science are everywhere in evidence. Radios keep the pilots constantly in touch with weather conditions along the line of flight, robot pilots automatically relieve the human pilot from time to time, "de-terors" remove dangerous ice should it form on the wings, blind flying equipment assures safety in fog and clouds.
Even the compact little first aid kits carried by the pilots for emergency use represent a triumph of science, ever on the alert to serve its favorite child—the airplane. Devised by scientists and skilled workers of the Red Cross Products Division of Johnson and Johnson, great American drug supply house, the items in the kit in general use on the ground, take on an added value in the air, in case of emergency. In the kit there are to be found

"Zo" and drybak adhesive plasters that are quick sticking and long lived; there is Red Cross cotton of 30 power absorbency, waterproof and mercurochromed speed band- ages- band aids, and many other scientifically designed first aid products available for quick and efficient use.
The use of these products themselves constitute many thrilling, little-known epics of the air, which it aviators talked, would furnish true stories more graphic by far than fiction.
There is, for example, the story of Captain George Daufrich, one of the oldest flying boatmen in America with 17 years experience in flying fast mail, freight, passengers . . . every type of plane that bears wings.
Taking off from Glenn Curtiss Airport one night in a fast Lockheed plane, bound for the Coast with a cargo of important freight, Captain Daufrich started Westward at 175 miles an hour.
Five hours out, however, head winds began to retard his speed. Climbing, ever climbing into the thin cold air, with his hands numb, the Captain sought an altitude at which the wind would not so great

ly retard his progress. That freight had to be in San Francisco the following day to be loaded on board a boat for the Orient.
After battling terrific winds and gaining a tremendous height in the bitterly cold air, the fast Lockheed made up for lost time. The Captain was on schedule!
But now a new danger beset him, weariness and thin air and cold joined in a conspiracy to produce sleep. His eyes began to close.
Realizing his danger, Captain Daufkirch removed a small, slim packet of ammonia inhalants from the pocket of his flying coat. From the packet he extracted a tube of cotton which he crushed between his fingers. In doing so he broke a tiny glass tube. Immediately, powerful ammonia was released, saturating the cotton.
Holding this to his nostrils, the clean, strong odor cleared his senses and revived him. And the five other little tubes in the packet used at intervals kept him mentally awake and alert until he arrived at the Frisco Airport . . . on scheduled time!
