URGES RELIGION IN RACIAL PROGRAM. Archbishop McNicholas Raps "Wasteful" Discussion and Lament—Bishop James A. McFadden and Mgr. Joseph F. Smith Also Speak. The sessions of the National Catholic Interracial Federation, last Saturday and Sunday, were well attended and very interesting. The high spot of the meeting was the address of Archbishop John T. McNicholas of Cincinnati, spiritualist adviser to the organization. Several hundred persons attended the meeting at Vila Alta, 17001 Lake Shore Blvd., N. E., Sunday afternoon. Among the things Archbishop McNicholas said were: "To no group in America will the beauty of the church's liturgy appeal more powerfully than to our colored people, once they understand its meaning. The processions of the church, congregational singing will be a major part of the members of the federation to start a crusade of prayer throut the country for our people, to obtain the cooperation of religious sisterhoods for the founding of schools and the aid of the religious orders of men to assist in the conversion of the deacre to the Catholic faith. He also said: Suggests Program. "Your federation should not wastefully spend its time at first in the discussion of racial problems, social inequalities and the injustices from which many of our minority, foreign and poor groups suffer. It should distinguish between the essential and the non-essential, see things in their true perspective. While a thousand abuses may call for correction, while many forms of injustice are to be combatted, while all of these undoubtedly are of grave import, the question of bringing our colored brethren to a knowledge and practice of the religion established by the Lord Christ is of supreme importance and must take precedence of every other. Your interracial federation should artificially action and not occupy itself merely with fussy activities which would give it much publicity but would accomplish little of lasting value." Auxiliary Bishop James A. McFadden of this city welcomed the delegates in the name of Bishop Joseph Schrembs. He told the story of our local parish of which the Rev. Thomas E. McKenney is pastor, Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament. It was founded, he said, eleven years ago with a handful of parishioners and now numbers nearly 1,400. Music was furnished by the church's musician, the boy's brother of the Church of the Holy Trinity in Cincinnati. Rev. Leo Walsh, pastor of the church, also spoke briefly. George W. Conrad, president of the federation, and Myles A. Paige, its executive secretary, also addressed the delegates. Other Convention Features. An entertainment and smoker for men delegates was held last Saturday night at the parish hall of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament church, while at the same time women delegates were guests at a tea at the P. W. A. The convention opened with mass in St. John's Cathedral, celebrated by Mgr. Joseph F. Smith. "The Catholic church welcomes the colored man to her fold as she welcomes the children of any and every race," Mgr. Smith said. "It is your duty to inform yourselves on Catholic principles, so that you may become misionaries to your own people." There was also a communion breakfast and roll call of delegates at Cathedral Hall following the mass. Monday's program opened with a memorial mass in St. John's Cathedral, celebrated by Bishop McFadden. There was a business session afterwards in Cathedral Hall for reports from committees and delegates and for the framing of resolutions. The officers, all re-elected, included George W. Conrad of Cincinnati, John E. Cunningham of Sec. and M. C. Whitlor of St. Louis, treas. Among the vice presidents is Oliver G. Waters, E. 95th St. The afternoon's session was addressed by John S. Leathy of St. Louis, and Jane E. Conner, secretary of the W. W. College, with a dance in Eagles Hall, 4705 Euclid Ave., in the evening.

Southerners Insisting on Lower Wage for Our Workers—It Would Be an Outrage—Same Old South. Washington, D. C.—Further reason why objections are rising all over the country to the naming of Clark Foreman, a public as "economic adviser on 'Negroes' in the interior department," was cited here this week. The Atlanta Constitution, owned by Clark Howell, uncle of Clark Foreman, has come out editorially for a lower wage for 'Negroes' under the NRA and as a general practice. A representative of the N.A. A.C. C.F., speaking of the association's protest on Mr. Foreman, said: "This is the best possible example of why we object to Mr. Foreman. He personally is rated as a fine young man, as fair on the race question as a southerner can be. But Mr. Foreman, no matter how fair he tries to be, cannot stand up for 'Negro' economic justice like a 'Negro' can. The race is too great. How can we expect in Athens paper and the most powerful daily paper, and Atlanta Chamber of Commerce have come out for a lower wage based on color only, to stand up and fight for equal wages for equal work? That is what 'Negroes' want. Southern 'Negro' leaders want it as well as northern 'Negro' leaders. The masses of the South want it. They held a mass meeting in Atlanta and said uncertain language. We do not believe Mr. Foreman can think and feel for us. We don't think he can function in the masses there will be plenty of pinchers. Only a 'Negro' can do this job right and by right we mean right according to 'Negroes' judgment." SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS QUIZ! BROWN'S ARREST IN EXHAUSTIVE INQUIRY INTO COUNTY APPOINTMENTS. aminer Says His Arrest on a Bribe 'A Campaign Gesture'— Williams' Statement. GEORGE BROWN'S ARREST BRINGS ABOUT AN EXHAUSTIVE INQUIRY INTO CITY AND COUNTY APPOINTMENTS. The Senior C. S. Examiner Says His Arrest on a Bribe Charge Is "A Campaign Gesture"— Williams' Statement. 1 The arrest of George W.W Brown, age 33, senior examiner for the City Civil Service Commission, on the charge of soliciting and accepting a bribe, cannot be brushed aside with the statement that it is "a campaign gesture" by the Democratic organization, controlling City Hall, Brown, who has been a Civil Service Examiner since Sept. 17, 1930, was released on $500 ball bond, Monday afternoon. The bond, secured by real estate, was furnished by his wife. And here is a tearful part of the unfortunate affair. He holds a behelor degree from Howard University, Washington, D.C., and a master's degree from Western University, Cleveland. Brown was arraigned in police court, Tuesday morning, on a charge of soliciting and accepting a $40 bribe from Fred Williams (white), age 50, holder of a temporary appointment as superintendent of reservoirs for the city's utilities department. Williams said Brown asked for the money in return for assurance that he (Williams) would pass the Civil Service examination and qualify for permanent appointment to the superintendency. The public is informed thru the medium of the local daily press, that statements made by Brown to Assistant Law Secretary, David Lieut, Edw. J. Flannagan be the basis for a sweeping investigation, of "the entire civil service set-up," by the county prosecutor. Brown's Alleged Promises. "Brown's Angled Promises." Brown told our men that if no charges were brought against him and he were given two weeks in which to answer the question, would uncover many irregularities in the civil service office," Safety Director E. E. Adams told local reporters. "He said every one up there (indicating the Civil Service Commission office) took orders and said positively that orders 'fixing' examinations came from the inside. He did not give any names nor did he implicate any members of the commission." Brown was arrested just outside the door of his office on the third floor of City Hall about 2 o'clock, last week Friday afternoon, by Lieutenant Flanagan, who said Brown had in his possession four marked $10 bills, the serial numbers of which the lieutenant had listed in the presence of city officials. Flanagan said he placed them under a moment after Williams, the reservoir superintendent, had conversed with Brown in a hallway in the Civil Service Commission office. Gives Conversation Williams, in a signed statement given to the police bureau of criminal investigation said: "On Aug. 24 I filed my application for superintendent of reservoirs and talked to Mr. Brown in his office. Mr. Brown asked me what the job was worth and I told him that it was worth $10. I told Mr. Brown told me that his work was to write the examinations and give them and that they had a girl there who rates the examination papers. Then he said, 'Mr. Williams, do you think that it's worth anything to give the girl, say, a box of candy, or, well, I won't set any figure, but we will set it anywhere between $10 and $15.' I told him that he did that: I told I wanted to do anything like that it would have to be on the installment plan and not at one time and he said, 'That can be arranged.'" Williams said Brown asked him to supply data concerning the duties of reservoir superintendent, and also said he sent the data to him by messenger. A few days later he was called to Brown's office in City Hall. "On Aug. 29 I saw him (Brown) in his office and he showed me some papers and told me, 'This is the examination with the exception that there will be a little chemistry added.' Then he said, 'I don't think you have anything to worry about.' Williams said he took the examination, last week Friday morning, finishing at 11:15. "I walked out of Brown's office where the examination was given and Mr. Brown followed me to the door and said, 'What about the thing we were talking about the other day?' Williams related in his statement to police. 'I said, 'I will see you this afternoon,' and he said, 'I will not turn out papers into the other you.'" Before taking the examination, Brown said, he conferred with Utilities Director Thomas M. Carey and THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and compari- with any will immediately estab- lish its rank as one of the NEST EST. BIBLIO published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. was instructed to carry out Brown's suggestion. **Bills Are Marked.** Friday afternoon Williams met with Carey, Dixon, Director Adams and Lieut. Flanagan and was given the marked bills, according to Adams and Carey. "About 2 p. m., last week Friday I went to his office and spoke to Mr. Brown and he came out of the office and then I handed him $40 in four ten-dollar bills (giving the serial number of each)" Williams "police, read." "Then Mr. Brown said, 'I don't think you will have anything to worry about, Mr. Williams, everything will be taken care of,' and then I walked away." Williams, a sharp-faced little Englishman, was a reservoir keeper from Feb. 21, 1925, to Sept. 30, 1930, when he was laid off with 30 other Democratic employees by E. H. Kruger, utilities director in the administration of Daniel E. Morgan. Williams was re-employed in June, 1932, by the Democratic administration as a reservoir keeper and last June was appointed superintendent of reservoirs. "Among the leads that Brown gave us following his arrest," said Dixon, "were several that may develop into something serious. He mentioned the last examination for fire department lieutenants and promised to 'uncover the whole setup of widespread bribes' if we refrained from charging him. "I am satisfied," Dixon continued, "that some of the above civil service commissioners (Davis, Green and Cull) is involved in any way with these proceedings." Brown, thru his attorney, denied he had asserted he was "framed politically" because of his Republican politics, and denied he had made a claim to the office per reporters. Both Brown and the Hon. Harry E. Davis, president of the Commission, are members of the race. Just before his attorney, Alex H. Martin, obtained a continuance to Brown pleaded not guilty to accepting an alleged bond. He continued at liberty under the bond of $500. DOINGS OF THE RACE. "Negroes" raise ninety per cent of the cotton in Mississippi and fifty per cent of all that is raised in the entire South. Collier's Magazine of Aug. 26, '33, carries an article in which the mongrel term "darky" is used twelve times. "Nuff sed!" Don't take Collier's Magazine. Gov. Glifford Pinchot has written A. D. DeCastrique, Beaver county attorney, demanding that he prosecute county officials on charges of kidnapping forty-six "Negroes," last January, and deporting them to West Virginia. Beyond shadow of a doubt, unless something is done to stem the tide, what we call religion will degenerate into a racket, contaminating the young, disgusting the old, and degrading the race with which we are identified—Cincinnati (O. J.) Union. In letters of fire should stand before every Negro when he enters the streets of public places these words: I am on trial. My race is judged by my conduct. I am "My Brother's Keeper." I must be quiet, clean, polite, genteel! — Cincinnati Union, W. P. Dabney, editor. The Cleveland Gazette, one of the most valuable and interesting exchanges, commenced the fifty-first year of its publication, last week, and we extend our most sincere congrulations, for during all these years it has been a welcome visitor to this office. No race journal has been more earnest and ardent in defending the rights of the race, giving giants the Hon. Harry C. Smith, deserve the support and encouragement of our people.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1933. Msgr. Jos. F. Smith, in his address to the National Catholic Interracial Federation which convened in this city, the first of the week, told the members of the organization in attendance upon the meeting: "It is your duty to inform yourself on Catholic principles so that you may become missionaries to your own people." And not to other peoples? "How come?" How "Big Business," meaning the large corporations of the country, especially those that manufacture automobiles, would just love to look into the books of the Ford Motor Company. Their overweening desire of years, to get a "cut" of the Ford Motor Company "melon," has been so great, so long, that it has been with great difficulty they have stood it in the last ten years. More power to Henry Ford and the Ford Motor Company. Paul Robeson, in a film translation of Eugene O'Neill's play, "Emperor Jones," is due at a local movie theater at an early date, it is announced. He is as great an actor as a baritone soloist, and that means something. It is a pity, however, that he is cast in a play which does our people harm every time it is presented, because it impresses the general public with the fool-idea that we are a race of cowards. One Dudley Digges, who plays the roll of "Smithers" in the play, is the only white person in the entire cast. --- The Davis-Sweeney-Miller local campaign for the mayorality was formally opened, this week. There is really no necessity for an election, this fall, since the Democrats have two candidates. Whichever one of the two Democratic candidates wins at the primary will be "killed" on election day by the loser and his friends. There is no earthly chance of either Miller or Sweeney beating Harry L. Davis at the primary, because he is backed by a united and not a divided party as in the case of the two Democratic candidates, Miller and Sweeney. --- The local Republican organization some weeks ago slated Perry Jackson to succeed Clayborne George (resigned) as a member of the City Council from the 18th Ward. Therefore, the efforts of persons, opposing Charles S. Smith's candidacy for the Council in that ward, to make it appear that Mr. Smith opposed the selection and election of Ferry, is amusing as well as malicious. There is absolutely no truth in the silly charge, as Mr. Smith announced, last week. The next councilman from the 18th Ward will be Charles S. Smith. Just remember this, please. --- One of the speakers at the Charles S. Smith-for-Council mass meeting in Temple Baptist church, last week Friday evening, was Rev. David O. Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. church, and a candidate (he thinks) for the school board. During the course of his address, he told a story which included a "cuss" word—it is said—which to say the least was in extreme bad taste in a church, even at a political meeting, and shocked many in the audience. Mrs. Mary B. Martin, also a candidate for the school-board (for re-election), who spoke later in the evening, politely and very properly took the minister to task for the language used in his story. It is high time that our ministers learn that everything doesn't "go" even in a political meeting, especially where the speaker is in a church and poses as a minister of the gospel. The other surprise of the evening was the parade of cockroaches up and down the steps to the platform and on the platform, during the speaking. A novel sight in a church. THE EDUCATED "NEGRO." What is the matter with the educated "Negro?" In the last ten or fifteen years, beginning with The Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, he has stolen to death several of our largest and apparently most successful insurance companies, a larger number of our banks and many other business enterprises. Here in the city of Cleveland in a number of instances, he has stolen his way into the state penitentiary and the local workhouse thru post office and city jobs of one kind and another. In every instance it was the educated "Negro," and it is a heart-rending burden he is leaving for all of our people of this community and the country to bear. What is it he lacks most? MISS HUNTER'S STATEMENTS. Five of our girls are serving in branches of the Public Library in this city. In referring to this fact, Miss Hunter, secretary of the P. W. A., in her address, Monday, to the delegates to the National Catholic Interracial Federation convention at Cathedral hall, doubtless unwittingly made the mistake of saying that these young ladies "served in 'Negro' districts." While this is undoubtedly true, it was not necessary for her to call attention to the fact in that way thru the columns of the daily newspapers, because it encourages our segregation among the other classes of residents in this community. Her statement, that the Board of Education has seen fit to segregate our teachers in what she terms the "Black Belt," comes as a great surprise. We did not know that our people of this community were "sleeping so soundly" as to permit such a thing as that to be done. --- WHO PUNCHED HUEY? It now develops that Dallas Turner is the name of the musician and teacher of color who gave the Louisiana "Kingfish." U. S. Senator Huey Long, a good "lacing," recently, at the Sands Point Bath club on Long Island, New York. Turner did such a good job—gave Huey a black eye and more—that it is a pity that the New York daily newspapers, and correspondents of other daily papers throut the country, absolutely refuse to tell the people of the South and the North who really did it. They will learn, however, sooner or later.

Lorain, O.-In compliance with the request of Miss Rosa M. Miller, an active member of our Seventh St. M. e. church, this city, Ex-State Senator John P. Green of Cleveland, author of Labor Day in Ohio, delivered before a large audience in the church, Sunday, an address which characterized the hed ever heard in the subject "Do or Die." Miss Miller desired that the "youth and middle-aged" be stimulated to be "closely acquainted JOHN P. GREEN Moral Holmes with God," and not think that "the most prosperous and desirable people are those who spend the least time with God." The Senator spent an hour and a quarter in strenuously giving the audience his views in that behalf. At the close of his address, the large audience gave Mr. Green a standing vote of thanks, and invited Mrs. Green and the speaker's eldest son, Peter Green, ex-congressman, and for many years a common pleas judge and an author, made some very interesting remarks relating to sad conditions in Ohio before the Civil War, and to the talents of the great Frederick Douglass, John M. Langston and Booker T. Washington. Judge Webber entered the church at the head of the court of lawyers the sheriff of whom County and his wife, all of whom manifested much interest in all the proceedings. In addition to Senator Green's exceptionally able speech, the vested choir sang several beautiful selections. At its conclusion, a young lady presented the Senator, who is 88 years of age, with a large and beautiful bouquet of flowers. His words were all clear and forceful, just as when he addresses juries in court. CHE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.

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, co ANCIENT RELICS IN MEXICAN PRESIDENTIAL TRAIN AT WORLD'S FAIR TELL STORY OF LOST RACE HICAGO, Aug. 00.— a year and a half ago a year and a half ago a small group of laborers who had been digging into the level mountain top, Monte Alban, a desolate spot in southwestern Mexico, unexpectedly penetrated the long-forgotten ruins of an ancient fortressed city whose culture was old when Columbus discovered America. In these ruins the workers came upon what was known as Tomb 7, in which they found fine gold, silver, jade, turquoise and pearl relics, almost incalculable in value, and even more important in the light they throw on early American history. These relics, the result of an expedition headed by Dr. Alfonso X. Caso, head of the department of archeology of the National Museum of Mexico, are being exhibited on the Mexican Presidential train at A Century of Progress—the Chicago World's Fair. Through a study of them, scientists are for the first time gaining definite knowledge of the early history of the Mixtecs, a race which makes its first appearance in history near the end of the tenth century and which reached its height about 1400. An the temporary absence of Dr. Caso, the exhibit is under the direction of Dr. D. Rubin de la Borbola, head of the department of anthropology of the National Museum of Mexico. Assisting him is Senorita Martinez del Rio, also of the National Museum. in number, variety and wealth of gainance, the treasures displayed in the collection fairly dazzle the onlooker and exceed description.

Personal and business interests have always been subordinated by its editor to those of the race, and The Gazette's clairon call to Afro-Americans, generally, in season, has been to accept the notion in the way that it is less than all citizens, without reference to class (race) or color, are entitled to.

AN PRESIDENTIAL TRAIN ALL STORY OF LOST RACE The most gruesome object of the collection is a human skull, incrusted with turquoise, with small discs in the eye sockets. It was used for ritual purposes, archeologists believe. There are countless jaguar bones, carved with a technique comparable to that of the best Chinese and Hindu ivory carvers. Their hieroglyphics tell the story of the Mixtec race, making them veritable leaves of history written on bones. There are dozens of gold breast plates and masks. Uncover Funeral Urns. One of the most beautiful pieces of this remarkable exhibit is a crystal cup, ground from a solid block by some painstaking Mixtec lapi-dary. There are earrings—large earrings, two inches in diameter, which the Mixtecs wore. Three funeral urns were found in the dirt, beneath other objects. Their art is definitely that of the Zapotecs, as is that of the stones with which the tomb was constructed. This leads archeologists to believe that the Zapotecs constructed the tomb, and that the Mixtecs later conquered them in one of their innumerable wars, and broke the Zapotec idols. The train in which this unusual collection is exhibited is located at the Travel and Transport Building of the World's Fair. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` HELLO, PHIL- YOU'RE JUST IAM TIME FOR A COCKTAIL WE'VE HAD TEN ALREADY A BIRD IN OMAHA JUST DIS- COVERED THAT PROHIBITION HAS ARRIVED AND GONE. I'M TIRED- THE GOTT. OUR FIFTY-FIRST YEAR. With our issue, Aug. 19, '33, The Gazette entered its fifty-first year of continuous publication, every week on time. This paper made its first appearance in August, 1883, with the writer at the helm as part owner, editor and manager. Many years ago, he purchased the interests of the other three members of the company and ever since the burden of and responsibility for the publication of The Gazette have rested upon his shoulders. How successful we have been is a matter of common knowledge the country over, and of personal pride on our part, for The Gazette's accomplishments were and are vitally important to the race, many and varied. They recommend it, too, in the strongest position of the race, wherever they may be. As a direct result of the efforts of The Gazette, many years ago, the notorious "Black Laws" of Ohio were wiped out, and an effective Civil Rights law, and Mob action act or Anti-Lynch law enacted by the Ohio General Assembly. This paper, as all know, has never failed to do all in its power to help, defend and protect our people, not only in Ohio but of the entire country. It has time and again blazed the way to wiser and better political and other action, and "turned back" the "jim crow Negro" who is a more treacherous and dangerous opponent of real racial progress than any other enemy of the race. Indeed, "The Old Reliable" Gazette has stood for life like a beacon light, fearless and unafraid, never faltering and always determined. What it has done in hundreds of other instances to help, defend and encourage our people along all lines of endeavor, that lead to greater and better progress, is a matter of general knowledge thrust through the country. We refer particularly to its 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 accommodations, adventures, 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. Who 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 court or upon such 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.

Jones put Victoria down for nine early in the seventh and, when the Mexican arose, he dropped him for the full count with a furry of short rights and lefts to the head.

Toronto, Canada. —Jesse Owens of Cleveland uncorked a dazzling turn of speed to win the invitation 100-yard dash at the Canadian National Exhibition track and field meet here last Saturday. Paired against the Canadian sprint champion, Harry Colman of Winnipeg, and Bill Christie of Toronto, Owens took command of the race in the first 25 yards despite a slow start and won easily, with Christie taking second place by inches from Colman. The Cleveland was clocked in 9.7 seconds. Earlier in the afternoon Owens had finished third to Ray Lauzon of Windson and W. Camlin of Toon in handicap 100-yard sprint. He started from scratch, while Lauzon was given five yards and Cummins eight. Although beaten by Bill White of Thorold, who was given 50 yards handicap, Phil Edwards, our Hamilton Olympic club ace, set up a new Canadian record of 2:10.6 for the 1,000 yards. Edwards held the old record of 2:13.2. He is a graduate of N. Y. University and was spinner ace while there. Mrs. Edwards is German. Cedar Branch YMCA Tennis Tournament a Big Success! Before a gathering of over 200 spectators the Cedar "Y" Tennis and Racket club brought to a close one of the most spectacular tennis tournaments in the history of Cleveland. Labor Day marked the finals for the following events: Women's singles and doubles. At 9 A. M., Miss Eugenia Murrell outshined her feminine competitor, Miss Doris Weaver, by a score of 6-2, 6-3. At 1:30 P. M., the Misses Eugenia and Alice Murrell won a well-contested match from the Misses Doris and Miss Eugenia, women's doubles championship of Cleveland for 1933. Score 6-3, 6-4. One of the most interesting of the afternoon matches was the clash between the men's doubles teams. On one side—Henry Graham and Dr. Quinn Montgomery; on the other—Oliver Dawson, John Carroll athlete, and Prof. B. T. Barrow. Dawson and Prof. Barrow played a wonderful game, but the odds were against them. Graham and Montgomery too many tricks in their bag. The final score, in favor of Graham-Montgomery, was 6-3, 6-3, 4-6, 6-1. The men's singles was an exhibition of superb stroking on their part, with the honors going to Graham—6-2, 6-3, 6-1. The tournament's outstanding success was due partly to the hard work of the committee in charge and partly to the splendid co-operation of the contestants. According to the officials at the YMCA and members of the Tennis and Racket club, this tournament will be an annual event. Let us hope the spirit that was manifest will act as a wind blown seed and penetrate everyone of our tennis courts in the community, thus giving rise not only to a new spirit, but also a larger and better crop of tennis players.

The Gazette hopes they "kiss and make up." Endorsement of the candidacies of former Mayor and Gov. Harry L. Davis for mayor; Councilman Charles Sacks; former Councilman Clayborne George and former State Representative Joseph H. Silbert for judge of the municipal court; and Mary B. Martin and Rev. David D.

Fleming Was Not Pardoned by Him Says Former Parole Officer, Samuel V. Perry—Daily Papers' Announcement Wrong. Cleveland, Aug. 31, '33. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. Dear Mr. Smith:—I note in The Gazette of Aug. 26, '33, the publication that appeared in the local daily papers concerning a pardon supposed to have been received by Former Councilman Thos. W. Fleming. The fact is, no pardon has been granted him by Gov. George White. Fleming served his period of parole, with good conduct. This fact under the have assured the pardon his rights of citizenship which was not the result of any act of the Governor. All former inmates are entitled under the law to their full citizenship after they have served their period of parole with good conduct, and their case is approved by the parole officer and the warden of the institution from which they were paroled. See section 2161-62 of the General Code. This is for the public—that it be not misinformed and think that the Governor has done us or Fleming a favor. Very truly yours, Samuel V. Perry, Parole Officer in 1930-31-32.

A The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING There is a scramble on among the few remaining Miller Democrats of color to get the position in the federal service held by Ralph W. Tyler, deputy U. S. marshal. The recent change in the postmastership seems to have given them great encouragement. Mrs. Hazel M. Walker, who as a Republican has been more or less of an "in and out" in the last two or three years, has announced her intention to support Congressman Martin L. Leveney of the Democrat nomination for mayor. This jump into the Democratic party is possibly Mrs. Walker's biggest and most harmful political move and mistake. Davis will be the next mayor. Several times in recent weeks, The Rounder has had his attention called to the fact that Associated Charities workers are not paying our people what they are paying members of other classes or races in this community. This is important and something that our local ministers' two organizations, the N. A. A. C. P. local branch and our local Federation of Women's clubs ought to look in carefully at once. THE GAZETTE'S GLORIOUS, CAREER On Aug. 19, 1933, The Cleveland Gazette entered upon its "51st Year of Continuous Publication, Every Week On Time." A most remarkable achievement in itself and yet, when we pause to realize that it has always been opposed to "jim crowism," always fought most strenuously for race rights and backed the effort of the editor, Harry O. Smith, in securing the enactment of Ohio's famous Civil Rights Law, and Mob Violence Act or Anti-Lynching Law, its progress is little short of marvelous. The Colored people of this country should feel more than proud to perpetuate its existence by giving it their financial support. Let us pray that God may give its editor the strength against the flood of segregation and "jim crowism" that threatens to destroy the spirit and ambition of our people.—Editor W. P. Dabney, Cincinnati (O.) Union AS TO THE TERM, "NEGRO!" Africa had no "Negro" race or tribe. The word was improperly employed within the United States—there was no "Negro" here, is now now nor at any time in the past. The word "Negro" is perpetrated by racial prejudice, and ignorance on the part of many men, and by a group of professional Negroes—that is to say Colored men and women who make a profession of being "Negroes," and by another group of hypnotized Colored men and women, who believe that the "Negro" has some high and mighty mission to perform in this country. It is further perpetrated by an unsophisticated class of schooled Colored men and women who are persecuted by the "Negroes," but wilt under the racial designation of "Negress" applied to one of their women.—Thos.
