BE SURE TO VOTE FOR Miss Hazel J. Funk, Candidate for the Council in Ward 19—A Friend of the Race. Active, capable and trustworthy, Miss Funk is the ideal candidate for mayor of the city. She is the 19th Ward.

If elected, she will have a meeting at her home once each month where representatives from each precinct in the ward will discuss their particular needs. Miss Funk is highly recommended by the Citizens League, and marked "preferred."—Adv. 1 GARDEN VISTA AT PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR APARTMENTS INC., NEW YORK CITY. The receipt, the first of the week, of the above portrait and the one of his wife, Mrs. Clara Burrill Bruce, assistant resident manager, from the Dunbar Apartments, manager of the Dunbar Apartments, caused the mind of the editor of The HEAR! HEAR!! THE TICKET MARKER ON WHAT'S DOING Somebody ought to tell Selmo Glenn, who made his headquarters in Councilman Bundy's office and may still be doing so as far as The Rounder knows, to stop shedding crocodile tears of sympathy for "The Blossom Triplets." George, Payne and Bundy earned the sobriquet. That is why the editor of The Gazette gave it to them. Two resolutions, urging the rereouting of Central Ave, and Scovill Ave, cars to Public Square, were introduced in City Council, Monday night, by Councilman Perry B. Jackson who says it is a great inconvenience, particularly for those who desire to transfer, to have to walk from E. 2nd St. and Prospect Ave. to Public Square in inclement weather. Perry is right! Funny "The Blossom Triplets" never that of it, isn't it? When have they ever that of anybody or anything else except themselves? The councilmanic candidates in the 18th Ward came very near having "rough-house" at the meeting in Cedar theater one evening last week. Candidate B. Charles S. Smith opened the chamber. Alderly S. Smith very nice talk and set a good precedent which the other candidates refused to follow. Their use of inuendoes were so close to personal attacks on one another that the audience was roused to an unusual pitch. All last week and this week, Smith's meetings have been most largely attended with the audience. The audience, Tuesday, is expected by a great majority of the voters of Ward 18. This is as it should be. The interests of all the people in the 30th Ward will be best served by the re-election of Councilman Charles Sacks. A verification of this fact, as far as our people are concerned, is seen in his endorsement by the Harry L. Davis club, Dwight Brooks, president; the South Slide Republican club, Wm. French, Sr. president; Mrs. Mary Holt, a leader in the E 142nd St. section. Rev. Wm. Todd, pastor of Quinn A. M. E. chapel; Rev. Wm. McMorries, pastor of M. Pleasant M. E. church; Rev. Wm. Cotton, pastor of First M. Olive Baptist church; the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, and others. A large crowd at St. James' Forum, Sunday afternoon, heard Wm. J. Kennedy, Mayor Miller's director of public service, speak on "The Achievements (?) of the Miller Administration." As a preface to his talk, Mr. Kennedy digressed from his subject to attack the records of Har- Gazette to hark back to the day, many years ago, when U. S. Senator Blanch K. Bruce of Mississippi came to Cleveland to wed Josephine Wilson, our first public-school teacher of this city. They were the parents of Mr. Browne, the Day Mr. Browne was sworn in as a member of the U. S. Senate, he was escorted down the isle to the presiding officer's desk, no less a person than the Vice-President of the United States, by Roscoe Conkling of New York State, one of the ablest and greatest statesmen to ever sit in the U. S. Senate. ry L. Davis and Congressman Martin L. Sweeney, mayoralty candidates, particularly the latter. In the question period that followed the speaker got a red-hot barrage from the audience, questions about high water-bills, infrequent garbage-collections, rackets and "muscle-men," failure of group decent institution to give our group decent institution to etc., left the speaker somewhat "limp against the ropes," as a result of the verbal onslaught. While Congressman Martin L. Sweeney was speaking at a Democracial meeting, Monday evening, a heckler asked him if it was true that he (Sweeney) favored intermarriage of colored and white peoples. "I never said that," Sweeney replied. "What I said was that I had voted against a bill to fabriqué marriages, just as I would vote against a bill to make Italian marry only Italians, or any other class legislation. Leiderscranz hall, out Kinsman Rd., is now located in Ward 17, it seems. At a Republican meeting there, Monday evening, Councilman Bundy finally publicly declared for Harry L. Davis for mayor. The way he and Payne urged the mythical candidate of David M. and George Bender up until a few days before the limit for filing candidates' petitions with signatures, and since even the they knew many weeks ago that Mr. Davis was to be the Republican leader and candidate for mayor, this fall, caused many people to marry the Brossox Triplets' with being for Millennium Sweeney, under cover. They were awfully slow warming up to our (Republican) candidate. Mayor Ray T. Miller's "Roaring Third," from the name of which he eliminated the word "Roaring," so he said, about ten days ago in a campaign speech, has ever since "roared" and then some, Miller's claim to be rightly credited that section of the city was silly, absoluteness. The first of the week they found a woman in the vicinity of E. 30th St. and Central Ave., who had been murdered. Her head had been opened with a cleaver, apparently. Two men were shot, Monday night, in E. 28th St. near Woodland Ave., while route home from a political meeting, was to all the crimes committed in the "Roaring Third" since Mayor Miller's speech by a good deal. FROM MEXICO. Monterrey, N. L., Mex., Sept. 23, '33. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. U. S. A. My dear Editor: It—it is a great pleasure for my wife and me to congratulate you on your 51st anniversary as editor of this famous paper.

Spare no one and place the blame at the door where it belongs. I hope that I may have the pleasure of congratulating you again, 51 years from today, on your success. I remain, Yours sincerely, (Mr. and Mrs.) W. M. Rhodes SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS YORK CITY.

C.; his mother, widow of Bishop John Hurst, Baltimore; Dr. Hurst's son and Dr. J. E. Taylor of Washington, D. C. were refused accommodation in Prince George Hotel here. Last week Friday, they were awarded $400 damages in municipal court for the insulting discrimination. They had reserved rooms by telegram. The editor of The Gazette spoke at the following Harry L. Davis-for-Mayor meetings, the past week: Sunday evening, at headquarters, 2719 Woodland Ave.; Monday evening, at 1612 Scovill Ave., and Friendship Baptist church; Tuesday evening, at 5006 Woodland Ave., and 8203 Quincy Ave.; Wednesday evening, Second Emanuel and Triedstone Baptist churches; Thursday evening, cor-Charity Ave, and E. and 84th St. Head-quarters, E. 81st St. and Cedar Ave., and theater. This evening he made at Finkle headquarters, 4737 Woodland Ave.; Sunday afternoon, at the same place, and Monday evening, at a great mass meeting in the Globe theater. --- The difference between the Paul Lawrence Dunbar Apartments and those to be erected in Wards 11 and 12, this city, by Cleveland Homes, Inc., and its subsidiaries, is that the New York City Dunbar apartments are inhabited by our people while those to be erected in this city will be inhabited by whites, the rent being too high and the prejudice against mixing colored and white tenants in the same apartment too strong. Indeed, those white tenants will have the lowest income groups (our people, Jews, Italians, ATTY, ARTHUR KRAUSE Enters Municipal Judge Race for Two-Year - a Strong Candidate 1927-04-17 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 comparison with any will immediately be made.

The whole housing scheme for Wards 11 and 12 here contemplates eliminating the lowest income groups of that section and their replacement with a higher (social) class (white) of residents with a view to "beautifying" the eastern approach to the County Courts building and Charity hospital west of E. 36th St., between Cochin Central Aves., and west of E. 30th St. between Central and Woodland Aves. BOYLE POINTS DORSEY The New County Treasurer a Democratic Friend of the Race—Gives Our People Recognition in His Office Force. About twelve or fourteen years ago John J. Boyle was treasurer of Cuyahoga County, and was considered one of the most capable and popular officials ever to hold public office in this county. So it was considered a practical certainty when he was a candidate last fall that he would be successful. In the present heated mayoralty campaign Mr. Boyle, a democrat, has seen fit to ally himself with the forces of Congressman Martin L. Sweeney, a liberal and progressive candidate. Last October in the campaign, he stated when he took office that our group would be represented in his force and making the pledge he had appointed Allen H. Dorsey, an old resident of Cleveland and a former employee of The Gazette, to a position in his office. Mr. Dorsey, active for years in civic and political affairs, had the endorsement of Congressman Sweeney, several of his clubs and the editor of The Gazette. FINKLE'S RECORD The Best of Any Councilman in the Re-Nomination and Re-Election For years, Councilman Herman H. Finkle has been a member of the City Council, making a record in that time that surpasses that of any other member of that "august" body. He is more than the political representative of the great majority of his constituents, because he has proven himself their true friend. This year, councilmen are to be elected from wards and not districts. That makes Mr. Finkle's bailwich the 12th mayor, one of the old homeplaces of the city. It was as a result of his long and continued effort that the Portland-Outshuffle center was constructed, one of the finest and best equipped of its kind in this section of the country. He has been a fearless and courageous leader, always very close to his constituents. Our people of his ward know him as their best friend. Last month, he filed one of the largest nominating petitions in the history of the city. During this primary campaign, he has maintained several headquarters in Woodland Ave. in which many large and exceptionally enthusiastic meetings were held, last and this week. It is his purpose to close his primary campus and exceptionally great mass meeting at the Globe later. Monday evening. This week, beginning Sunday evening, meetings were held at headquarters, 2719, 5006 and 4737 Woodland Ave.; 1612 Scovill Ave., Friendship and Stried Stone Baptist churches and the Erie theater. Max Yergan, for eleven years a Y. M. C. A. secretary in South Africa, was the guest of Executive Secretary Charles E. Frye of the Cedar "Y", the past week. Early Wednesday evening a delicious dinner was served in his honor which a large number of our local leaders attended. Mr. Yergan, who delivered several addresses while here, left the city Thursday. He was awarded the Spingarn Medal for this year.

As the day approaches for the Scottsboro boy-victims' trials at Decatur, Ala., lynch-murders in that immediate vicinity increase in number. There have been two in recent weeks. What a pity it is that Paul Roberson must exhibit his splendid ability as an actor in the film version of "The Emperor Jones." Every time this play is exhibited, either on the stage or in the film, it hurts our people because it stains them indelibly as cowards in the minds of all who witness it. AGAIN BOULDER DAM. The U. S. Department of the Interior, which has supervision of the construction of the 165-million-dollar Boulder dam at Las Vegas, Nev. "cannot intervene" with its contractors and see that more Afro-Americans are given employment, it announced this week. What surprises us is that anyone expected the present southern Democratic control of OUR government to take any other stand, in the matter. There are too many hungry Democrats, white, of course, out of employment in Nevada alone to even consider Afro-American Democrats or Republicans there or elsewhere for service on OUR 165-million-dollar Boulder dam. They even exclude Afro-Americans from residence in Boulder city, built by the government. Great is the influence and power of southern Democracy, these days. And "Negroes" here in the North, many of whom came from the South in 1917 and since because southern Democrats made it too "hot" for them to remain there, are calling themselves Democrats and affiliating with the Democratic party. Lord, have mercy! MARTIN OR WALKER? In Mrs. Mary B. Martin and Rev. David O. Walker, our people have two candidates for members of the Board of Education. Mrs. Martin is seeking re-election. We cannot hope for the election of both, and, as a matter of fact, we will be lucky to get one. Mrs. Martin has served only one term, and under ordinary circumstances is entitled to re-election to the Board, a second term. The Gazette's only criticism of her has been that her field of activity, as far as our people were concerned, was too small. This possibly because she had not had the experience in public office necessary to learn the real limits of this activity. Now that she has had nearly four years' experience, gained while serving her first term as a member of the Board of Education, she has undoubtedly broadened her field of activity among our people and will continue to do so. Rev. Walker, our other candidate for the Board of Education, ought never to have entered the race, because his candidacy endangers the re-election of Mrs. Martin who is entitled to a second term. It lessens our support of her candidacy. This is to be regretted, especially in view of the fact he hasn't a chance to be elected. Then, too, Rev. Walker in our judgment is in no wise fitted for the position he seeks because he is entirely too temperamental, unstable and verbose. It will require united support upon the part of our voters for Mrs. Mary B. Martin to build a foundation upon which, with the support she receives from the other classes of voters in the city, to make a successful bid for re-election. In view of this fact, and the all important one, that our people need more than any other class (race) of people in the community, a member of the local Board of Education, The Gazette urges our voters to forget the Walker candidacy and unitedly support the Martin candidacy. If we fail to do this, we will not have any representation in that important branch of the city government after the close of Mrs. Martin's term. VOTE FOR DAVIS. Every Afro-American voter in the city of Cleveland should make it his and her business to cast their ballot on Tuesday for Ex-Governor and Ex-Mayor Harry L. Davis, the Republican candidate for the mayorality nomination. It is not necessary to explain why they should do this, because nearly every man, woman and youth in the community understands it thorously. The Democrats are "in the saddle"—in power at Washington, at Columbus and here in Cleveland. This great loss was sustained in the last few years. It is time for the Republicicans to start back into power, beginning with the local election in November. All Republicans have to do is to so vote at Tuesday's primary as to triumphantly nominate the Hon. Harry L. Davis, and the "Kilkenny Cat" fight in the Democratic ranks between the Miller and Sweeney factions will do the rest—triumphantly elect Mr. Davis mayor of the city of Cleveland on Nov. 7, 1933. The Mayor Ray T. Miller administration has been a huge joke from many viewpoints. His unfitness for the position he holds is now apparent to all thouft persons without reference to party connection. The vital interests of the city, as well as the unfortunate conditions created by the economic depression, really demand a change and the installing of a man, as chief executive who has the experience, gained while serving three terms as mayor of this city, and that man is Harry L. Davis. So let every man and woman exercise his right of suffrage on Tuesday. Vote for Davis! CHARLES S. SMITH, THE BEST CANDIDATE. The abortive effort, to help the John E. Hubbard candidacy for the City Council in the 18th Ward by circulating false statements, is sure to act as a boomerang and defeat him. Last week, Councilman Perry B. Jackson was announced as having said that Mr. Hubbard "was the best qualified candidate (in Ward 18) and would unquestionably make the best representative." This of course is not true and Perry promptly denied ever having anything of the kind. This week, "The Hubbard-for-Council Committee" is circulating another campaign story to the effect that Charles S. Smith, the leading candidate* for the City Council in the 18th Ward, had used in a campaign speech Congressman Oscar De Priest's famous statement, "never elect a 'hungry' man to office," and that "the dart was aimed at John E. Hubbard." The admonishing statement is a good one, but why does the Hubbard committee tack it onto its candidate? Mr. Smith did not mention Hubbard's name or that of any other of the Ward 18 candidates, Dr. E. A. Bailey, E. F. Cheeks, or Dr. J. A. Owen. The Hubbard Committee in its circular on the matter says: "John E. Hubbard * * * * is a 'hungry' man in the sense that the Congressman De Priest statement intimates. If that is true, then the Republican voters of that ward not to even consider his candidacy, for the very good reason that it would be foolish to nominate or elect such a man to any public office, just as De Priest explained in a speech made here in Cleveland, m any months ago. The City Council is certainly no place for a 'hungry' man" and our wide-awake citizens of Cleveland have been impressed by a knurl of the last few years as never before. So again has Charles S. Smith performed a public duty, and well, as usual. He is unquestionably the best of the several candidates for the City Council in Ward 18. Therefore, The Gazette heartily endorses his candidacy and respectfully asks the support of it by all views of the classen resident in the ward who wish the best representation in the City Council possible at this time.

I scrawled that they started clapping their hands." Ralph Metcalfe said recently on his return to this country from abroad. He was explaining the very generous applause he received every time he appeared on the track with the American athletes who with him made the recent European tour. He won more medals than any other member team. When he browled at the winner, a race, he said: "You'd way the crowds applauded me." The other members (white) of the American team were just like brothers to me. Johnny Morris, the hurdler from Louisiana, was one of my pals on the trip. The other two were George Spitz, the high-jumper from New York, and Ivan Fuqua,ana's four-letter man. I would jokingly say to me, just about an hour before he met me was to start, to go out and take your applause while I take my nap."

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 in enacting anti-lynching laws, and at least one couple 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: 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.

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 representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came. The county must address the statutory 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 or other place of public accommodation s'd 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, nor imposed 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, not us, use it when it is our child, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

Worcester Ave., City. What Some Editors Say The editor of Telephony writes: It is significant that the Better Business Bureau, of Akron, $O_{x}$ has been running advertisements in local newspapers warning citizens not to contribute money to organizations promising to obtain reductions in utility rates without first investigating their real motive. This is the day of the business "racket" when the criminal, the grafter, and the loafer are preying on legitimate industry and honest workers. Even the farmer hauling his produce to market has been compelled to pay toll to the bandits that run the highways. The money collected from consumers of utility service by various leagues and associations for the alleged purpose of forcing a reduction in rates may easily finance a "racket" as repreensible as the hold-up schemes in other lines. Warns Subscribers The Akron Better Business Bureau, in effect, issues the warning: "Don't contribute to an organization that promises reductions in electric, gas and telephone rates until you are convinced the promoters are more interested in rates than in their personal profit." It is good advice for anybody to follow, and it indicates a belief on the part of the bureau that at least some of the solicitors of public donations are principally intent on accumulating an income for themselves. Many a reform organization has been born in the brain of a clever individual who hoped it would furnish him with a good job paying a comfortable salary; and as long as the contributions rolled in, the organization continued to exist, even if it produced any tangible results or not. So long as the collections were tangible enough to pay the official salaries, the result were satisfactory to the promoters. The reform "racket" has been not unprofitable in many cities in past years. Maybe these consumers' leagues and utility subscribers' relief associations that are shouting so loud about rates belong to the same class. At least, the Akron Better Business Bureau seems to suspect that some of them are not altogether civic-minded and unselfish.

A glamorous and glittering mode, the most elegant shown since the war, was displayed in Paris by Lucien Lelong among his 1834 winter style suggestions. Sparkling spangles, birds of paradise and luxurious furs combined to make the evening mode reminiscent of the elegance of pre-war days. Gowns were designed with slender lines and trailing trains, and gave an air of intriguing grace to mannequins as they swept through flower-decked salons. A black velvet princess evening gown had shimmering sequins on the lower part of the skirt and upper bodice. A black net splashed with iridescent spangles and a periwinkle crepe studded with metal moons were other outstanding designs. Feathers added an interesting touch to several models. One brown velvet gown was made with a cape shoulder line edged with yellow birds of paradise. A black crepe model was finished with a spray of pink asprey at the left shoulder. Evening wraps stressed capes, long and short, lavishly trimmed with fur. A long black velvet cape was faced with ermine, and had a collar of that fur. A full-length gray velvet cape was collared with lighter gray fox. A waist-length cape had an ermine yoke and a sable lower section. JEWEL BUTTON FAD By CHERIE NICHOLAS Things that were fashionable in 1900 among which are jewel buttons are to be in vogue again. A striking evidence of this is given in connection with the ultra black linen crash ensemble picture. Here the waist-depth jacket is fastened with two glistening rhlstone buttons. The double-pointed girdle which drops below the jacket is uniquely buttoned to the skirt. The sleeves have the "architectural" silhouette which characterizes the new season's styling. FLASHES FROM PARIS Copper is the big color for fall. The theater hat comes into its own. Black costume jewelry is the new idea. Capelets of feathers are matched with hats. Peplum effects accent the two-piece idea. Velvet blouses are worn with cloth suits. Tassels with jeweled tops are new trimming fancies. Hosiery With Buttonholes Is New and Practical Idea Women who like to spend as little time as possible in dressing will like a brand new idea to simplify the underwear problem. New hosiery is made with buttonholes in the hems, and is held up by buttons on elastic tapes attached to the inside of a pantie or an all-in-one type of undergarment eliminating the need for a garter belt. These new stockings may also be worn with your favorite corset or elastic girdle, too—the buttonholes are embroidered so that they prevent garter runs from starting, and they are so placed at the front and back of the stockings that they fasten at just the right points to keep the seam straight at the back of the leg. It is a simple matter to get the correct length of fastening—there are two rows of buttonholes in the stocking hem—one near the top and one near the lower edge—and the elastic tapes inside the panties are especially for these stockings are adjustable. Most smart Parisians who wear frocks which are too frail to support the weight of the regulation evening wrap wear little capes or scarfs of the same material. CHE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, SEPT. 30, 1933. FALL COSTUMES IN BLACK AND WHITE Velvet or Satin With Dash of Monkey Fur. Black and white looks like the first winner for fall, as it always is and apparently this year is not different from any other. Except that the black is black velvet or satin, and the white is likewise. Also there's a dash of monkey fur to garnish many of the new fall costumes. A striking black and white costume seen in one of the advance showings has a chalk white crepe frock, simply tailored, its only trimming being a bow of slithery black satin on one shoulder. It's worn with a black satin coat with lavish sleeve trimming of black monkey fur. Black satin gauntlet gloves and a little black velvet beret, pulled down over the eyes, complete the costume, and, if you like, black velvet numps. The black satin suit is about as impressive a costume as you can wear right now. Especially when it has a dash of white. A nice one seen about town has a peplum jacket, with the peplum flare in three tiers, a fitted belt, and a skirt that is straight and slim. It is worn with a white organdie blouse that has a Buster Brown collar and a big organdie tie. With this outfit is worn a white organdie hat. Black satin gloves with an organdie cuff, and black satin pumps add the final note. THE FASHION WEEK The leather jacket, sturdy standby of the practical sports wardrobe, appears this fall with new style interest to enhance its popularity. Adjustable slide fasteners are used at the side front closing of the model illustrated after the manner of a smart frog trimming which makes it both practical and decorative. Practical because these fasteners make it possible to fasten the jacket as snugly or loosely as you wish assuring a perfect fit to your particular figure. Decorative because the gleaming metal clips of the fasteners together with the metal buckle of the leather belt add a smart contrast note to the handsome dull surface of the monotone suede of the garment. The neck may be worn fastened high, with an inch-wide standup collar, or open as shown in the picture, with one lapel casually thrown back. The flannel skirt worn with the jacket has an adjustable slide fastening, making the waistband fit exactly and eliminating the belt. The flare gauntlet gloves are of fine chamoislets and are washable. A tomboy hat with brim turned down in front and up in the back completes this up-to-the-moment costume for campus or sports wear. STYLE NOTES Many fur trimmings are noted for fall. Street suits have very tight skirts. Daytime coats have mandarin necklines. Tyrolean felt hats like men's fedoras will be worn. The favorite suit is of black satin with a dash of white. Comes now the glove-fitting silhouette into favor. Many velvety woolens are shown for the new season. Paris Designers Revive Styles of 30 Years Ago The trend of Paris fashion designers toward a return to the styles of thirty years ago was emphasized in the interopening of Maggy Rouff, continuing the openings of the big houses now in progress. Maggy Rouff hints of the fashions of the "gay nineties" in featuring heavy rich silks, taffetas, failles, off-shoulder evening gowns, full swirling skirts, huge flowers and centering front decoletages. Boldini portraits are recalled in shoulder draping, tight waist, extravagant fur-trimmed capes and coats, and a new hip-line basque for day and evening. Colors are bronzes, burgundies, zinzolins—new bright red—black, blue and pastel-colored dresses under dark heavy coats. Velvet for Hats Velvet is to be the material for hats this autumn. Already smart women are wearing berets of velvet, black ones. Some of the new berets have little visor brims, and all are worn at an exaggerated angle. Gold In History Gold Diggers of South Africa in Playtime. Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.—WNU Service. GOLD standards, gold shipments, gold rushes, gold values, uses of gold, and myriad other ref- as monetary gold stock, only about $11,940,000,000. What, you ask, has become of the rest of it? Where are the missing te ferences to gold have kept the yellow metal before the public eye in recent months. Gold coins brought from the wreck by Robinson Crusoe were worthless to him. On his island, nobody was in sight from whom he might buy. But when Crusoe was rescued and could mingle again with other men, then his gold would buy anything he wanted. What a simple lesson in the power of gold! Lust for gold, and the power it wields, recast Old world geography in the plundering raids of Alexander the Great. It brought changes to Europe's map in the Punic wars, and in the campaigns of Marius, Pompey, Paulus Aemilius, and Julius Caesar. Leaping the Atlantic in the wake of Columbus, it was again the gold fever which led the conquering hordes on those long explorations which not only wrecked and robbed the Aztec and Inca empires and slew or enslaved whole tribes of Indians, but laid the first lines of what is now the map of the western hemisphere. Yet a third geographic chapter in man's world-wide gold quest dawned when the trail wove back and forth across the Pacific, from California to Australia, back to Alaska, then away off to South Africa. Always, on the cultural map, the goldseeker left his mark. Consider California. The Forty-niners' rush to its rich placers started that western migration which was to build railways and new cities, found industries, and cover the West with farms, sawmills, and schoolhouses. Gold strikes, in the same way, swelled the human tide to Australia and hastened its settlement and growth. When gold mines of fabulous wealth opened in South Africa, they put the Dark continent in the world's eye and led, indirectly, to the Boer war. Cripple Creek, the Klondike, northern Ontario, now the greatest gold area in the western world, all have had their profound effects on human progress. Gold Is Not Static. When gold was used merely as personal adornment, in plate, or in the decorative arts, it swayed the destiny only of those who possessed it, as in Peru and Mexico, or when Rome paid chariot loads of it to the barbarians to save herself from being sacked. But when gold came into wide use as money, to measure wages, prices, and the cost of living in all nations, then it began to influence the whole world. Tariffs, the gold standard, foreign exchange and debts, arbitrage—gold brings them all into the picture of international relations. You think of all this when you walk through the United States mint in Philadelphia and see the shiny new gold coins come tumbling out; or when you explore the vast, silent valuels of the Federal Reserve bank in lower New York city, sunk far below the Hudson river, with their stacks of gold bars and bags of coin worth billions. High above you, in the busy street, armored trucks and armed guards come and go with still more gold, the gold that is forever crossing and re-crossing the oceans, the gold of Paris and London, of Tokyo, and Buenos Ayres. For gold is never static; incessantly it changes form and place, and yet endures. Look at your own gold watch and think. Some of its gold particles might conceivably have come even from the gold of Solomon's temple; from an old treasure ship plundered by buccaneers of the Spanish Main; or, again, from new gold mined only last year in Arizona. Look at the motley heaps of secondhand gold jewelry in any pawnshop window. Visit one of the great factories in New England or around Manhattan, where costume and other jewelry is turned cut by the carload, and you see again why industry uses so much of all gold produced. Or consider the fortunes in gold leaf lal on the crosses and domes of churches, such as St. Paul's cathedral in London, the mosques of Meshed and An Najaf, such structures as the Woolworth and American Radiator buildings in New York, or the fortunes in gold worked up every year in the dental and sign-painted trades. Half Used In Industry. Only about half of the world's gold production since the discovery of America can now be definitely located, says the director of the United States mint. Since 1492 the world has mined more than $22,000,000,000, as officially reported. Of this, about 80 per cent was produced since 1860. But today, the world's nations hold. as monetary gold stock, only about $11,940,000,000. What, you ask, has become of the rest of it? Where are the missing ten billions or more? It went, much of it, just as in olden times, into ornaments. In 1331, for instance, of, roughly, $49,000,000 of gold mined in the United States alone, about $29,000,000 was consumed in industry. To understand gold's place in the world today and how it affects our well-being, one must first swiftly trace its use through other times. Europe's gold when Columbus first sailed westward amounted to less than some present-day family fortunes. Part of this Europe had mined, part she had plundered from other lands. Cadmus, a Phoenician, opened a gold mine in Thrase about 1554 B. C., and "carried thither the alphabet and other germs of civilization." Jason, on his piratical gold quest to Argos in 1263 B. C., gave the name Argonauts to gold-seekers. Croesus gained wealth from ancient placer mines of Smyrna; so did Midas of the legendary golden touch, who turned his own daughter into gold. Darius of Persia looted Asia Minor, Greece, and Egypt, and levied gold and silver tribute. Part of this Alexander retrieved when he in turn plundered Babylon and other lands of enormous sums. Holes dug by Harun-al-Rashid when he worked the gold veins of what now is Hejaz were recently seen. Diodorus tells in dramatic detail how naked slaves, with candies tied on top of their heads, worked the hot tunnels of Egyptian gold mines in the cruel days of the Pharaohs. Some of early Europe's gold came from Siberia. Gmelin, the German traveler, says the tunnels were so small that men had to crawl on their bellies to get at the quartz, from which they picked gold filaments with tools pointed with boars' fangs. Egyptian kings worked their gold mines with slaves, and Carthage not only enslaved people in what is now Spain, but also brought hordes of African slaves to help work these mines. From the Imperial Roman era to Columbus, Europe's limited gold production forced nations to war and plague. India Hoards Gold. India, in time, became the world's greatest gold hoarder. "The treasure sink of the world," she has been called. Just how much gold is still hidden in the secret vaults of her princes, nobody knows; from 1873 to 1930, however, the records show that India imported about $2,800,000,000 in gold. Even after America was discovered, Europe, though her own gold supply was increased, continued to obtain less by mining than by conquest and plunder. Cortez and Pizarro robbed in the New world as Scipio and Alexander had done in the Old. Few books record the fact, yet Japan in the Seventeenth century supplied Europe with an important stock of gold. The Portuguese and Dutch managed this, beginning generations before the American Commodore Perry opened Japan's ports to world trade. Fernao Mendes Plinto, a pirate from the Portuguese colony at Ningpo, China, was driven upon the Japanese coast during a storm in 1545. When he returned to Ningpo with tales of much gold in Japan, other Portuguese fitted out ships and began trading. Though Japan then coined no gold as money, her people amassed it as wealth and traded it freely for weapons, drugs, and dress stuffs brought by the Portuguese and later the Dutch. When the stock began to wane, the Portuguese hatched a plot to overthrow the Shogun, and to work the mines with enslaved natives; this project led finally to their expulsion. The Portuguese, however, had actually contrived to have the mines worked, and thus secured treasure which was shipped to Europe. Nothing stirs man's imagination more than tales of huge nuggets. Small ones have appeared in the craws of chickens and turkeys; children at play have found others. A fourteen-year-old California boy named Perkins, playing with a toy water wheel in a Calaveras county creek, picked up a nugget worth $1,800. Near Dear Flat, in the same state, an old miner, Dan Hill, stooped to wash his hands in a brook and saw in the water a chunk of gold as big as his head. He got $12,300 for it. North Carolina does not come to mind first as a gold state. Yet records in the United States mint show that it mined gold as early as 1793. From its old Reed mine, in Cabarron county, came a veritable stream of nuggets that ranged from bean-size up to gold chunks of 28 pounds.

Smith has been a property owner and therefore a tax-payer, resident of the 18th Ward. More than thirty-six years of that time, he served as secretary to five chiefs of police and three directors of public safety which included the duties of secretary of the police and fire departments, their pension-funds, city-buildings and smoke departments, and with the practical experience in municipal government very helpful to a councilman. A part of his duty was to prepare and supervise the passage of ordinances pertaining to the police and fire departments, and to prepare the annual budget of the same. He had direct contact and extensive dealings with every department of the government afforded him an unusual opportunity for the study of the affairs of the city.

Beasley in Oak E After R subscribe After HARRY L. DAVIS' STRONG PLATFORM. Administration of relief for the poor and work for the unemployed overshadows all problems confronting the next mayor. Politics has disgracefully distorted this humanitarian function during the past two years. It must and will be eliminated. Underworld forces have menaced the community because politics and internal strife have tended to undermine the morale of the police department. During the past two years an attempt has been made to make the police and fire departments an adjunct of a political machine. We shall rip out the political wires which connect the police department with machine politics. The women's police bureau has come to serve a special function in the community. I shall re-establish it, and provide it with quarters and put it in charge of one particular unit qualified for this position to be responsible solely to the chief of police. The municipal light plant was established to serve as a barometer for equitable light rates in the City of Cleveland. This test cannot be a fair one so long as the plant suffers waste, inefficiency, extravagance, and—worst of all the devastating sabotage of utter neglect. It is my purpose to rehabilitate the city last plant so that it may serve the purpose for which it was originally conceived. Such a policy enabled me, in my administration to establish cost of manufacture and save the public millions of dollars by compelling the Illuminating Co. to cut its rate to Clevelanders from ten cents to five cents. While Cleveland's population has increased only 13.5 per cent since our former mayoralty administrations, the cost of operating the city has risen 100 per cent. High taxes have crippled business and harassed small homeowners. Waste and extravagance in city expenditures must be controlled. Economy is the order of the day. We will slash the cost of city government. The street car is a vital concern of every citizen. Present street car fare is high. Negligence, inefficiency and incompetence have scrapped the Tayler grant since I left the mayor's office. To revive the spirit of the mayor, I will appoint a street railway commissioner, qualified, equipped and loyal solely to the car riders' interests. When I was mayor, Cleveland had a five cent fare. We will bend our energies towards a restoration of this fare. Our greatest weapon against high telephone gas and other utility rates is the force of public opinion. It is within the power of the mayor so to galvanize public opinion as to compel prompt determination of utility rates by the public utilities commission. Present state laws thwart the public's interest in rate cases. It shall be my concern to compel the public's laws in order to make impossible dilatory practices which now obtain All of the city's recreational facilities will be placed at the disposal of the people and utilized to the utmost. It is intended that these recreational facilities shall be used not only during the summer season, but throughout the entire year. Cleveland is an underground exhibition hall which while not in use for exhibitions can be used for other purposes. I propose to convert it into a greed community center and people's club where all of Cleveland's citizens and particularly the younger folk may have a central gathering place for clean, healthful sports, exercise and entertainment. Gordon Benton will out a bath-house. It will be our purpose to construct a suitable building to take care of the public at this beach. With the rapid progress of the St. Lawrence Lake to Ocean shipping project, it is important that Cleveland prepare its port and river facilities speedily to reap its full share of benefits from this improvement. Every resource possible must be thrown into proper and prompt lake front developments. The mayor of a city the size of Cleveland must take the initiative in promoting social legislation in the United States and Cleveland have passed the most economic nightmare. We have now again to experience anything like it. Permanent remedies for our economic disturbances must be found. As mayor, I shall use the influence of my position for social betterment of all classes by urging passage in the legislature of unemployment insurance and old age pension laws. Cleveland has always enjoyed the reputation of being among the foremost cities in the country in matters of civic enterprise and co-operation with programs of national import. During the last war, while I was mayor, this city mobilized all of its forces in support of the national need. This spirit of full cooperation with the national government in the direction of national recovery must and will continue.
