Judge Callahan, notorious member of the Ku Klux Klan, has been thrashed by State Attorney-Gen. Thad E. Knight to preside at the hearings. T ON WHAT'S DOING Is it a fact, as persistently rumored, that when Councilman Roy Bundy made a speech in Ward 18, during the primary campaign, for Charles S. Smith, a candidate for a councilmanic nomination, he was "double-crossing" Smith? That rumor was pretty general at the time and has been repeated frequently since the primary. One of our local churches had a special meeting, Sunday evening, for the purpose of "giving all 'Negro' business in Cleveland a real boost," the principal speaker being Clayborne George. Our local businessmen, or representative of their business, were invited to attend. Just what a lawyer, with no practical experience in business, was expected to tell them is a question. The principal speaker of the meeting should have been one of our successful business men, it seems to The Rounder. Sunday afternoon, Maurice Maschke made a very acceptable speech, as usual, at the great mass meeting in Mr. Zlion Cong, church. You know the church is in the 17th Ward from which that day he came. "I can" Cong, he many months ago threatened to "run" Mr. Maschke if he came there to make a speech. Well, Bundy was at the meeting, Sunday afternoon, sitting on the stage with Mr. Maschke just as "mute as a mouse." Another amusing incident of the meeting was when Congressman Priest was sitting in the Hawkins' house. "Do Priest characterized him as "a Clevelandander who had come out for Martin Sweeney for mayor," and invited him to "come to the platform." The Rounder, like many others in the meeting, is still wondering whom the congressman was "referring to" and whose reference to Frank Hawkins who was billed during the primary campaign as the local Afro-American Swineen leader. DAVIS MASS MEETING And Musicale the Most Extraordi nary in Several Respects Ever Held in the Glenville District. The largest political meeting ever sponsored by our group in that vicinity of the city (the Glennville district) was held, Sunday afternoon, at Persky hall. E. 105th St. and Gooding Ave. The large auditorium was packed with representatives of both races, all of whom listened to a splendid performance in淋浴. Myrtle Wiggins Maryet Biggs, Mesdames Kathleen Forbes, Ruth Taylor, and a quartette, directed by Mr. Jay Noble, participated. The speakers were Ex-Gov. Harry L. Davis, Republican candidate for mayor; Dr.' Ben T. Persky, candidate for council, and others. The members of the committee of arrangements were Chas. W. Brown, chair.; Mrs. Walter Ison, Seth Nickens, S. C. Glenn, and others. The members who worked sufficiently to make the meeting such a splendid success were Dr. J. D. Merida, Messrs. Buckingham, Mason and Gaines; Mesdames Smith, M. Lee, K. Wilson, Wm. Gaines and Clay Biggs. Refreshments were served. IT'S 22ND ANNIVERSARY The November issue of The Critics will mark its twenty-second anniversary. In it, Hazel W. Harrison writes on "Our Status in the New Deal." In his contribution, George W. Streator attributes the breakdown of the educational system in North Carolina to the lack of foblobbies maintained by the big interests. Ivan E. Taylor, a young college student, raises a pertinent question about the "arrival" of the Afro-American in art, literature and the drama. Other contributions are by Percy L. Julian, Loise C. Bishop, W. Joseph Cossette, C. Bigham, Henegan, John Douglass and John S. Brown, Jr. JOE WEAVER VOTED $12,000 But the Lord Only Knows When He Will Get It—the County Hasn't the Money—a Trust Fund to be Arranged. Joseph Weaver gave two years of his life to the county when a jury convicted him of murder in 1927 and a judge sent him to the death house in Columbus. Tuesday, county commissioners gave him an hour of their time and voted him $12,000 to help (when he gets it) in eradicating the thoughts he had in the house. He was engaged as a longshoreman, pulled up his chair to the commissioner's table and listened while his attorneys, Nathan E. Cook and Wm. F. Marsteller, told the story; Joe didn't say much. The award the commissioners voted Tuesday was made possible when the Legislature at its last session authorized them to pay Weaver not more than $15,000. Weaver was sentenced to die, April 16, 1927, after he had been convicted of killing a west side night watchman (white). Insisting that he was innocent, he went to Columbus and was put in the row of cells provided for condemned prisoners. He came within 48 hours of dying in the electric chair. Five times the governor granted reprieves. Cook and Marsteller, convinced of their client's innocence, at their own expense, kept up the fight outside, and finally in 1929, almost two years after he was convicted, he was granted a new trial. He was freed by a directed verdict. A man serving a life term in the penitentiary, whose testimony had convicted Weaver, finally, changed his story and absolved himself. Cook said that a trust fund would be arranged for Weaver's money when he got it. First, the county must find the money. When he gets a little of it, Joe intends to visit his mother again in Georgia and show her what a great, big, husky, good-hearted son he is. SILBERT FOR IUDGE A Former Member of the Ohio Leg lature—His Candidacy Well Re- ceived in All Circles—A Real Friend of the Race. J. H. Silbert for judge is now the talk of Cleveland citizenry. It may be said that no other candidate received such a favorable reaction as Silbert. "Silbert for Judge" is now the slogan of every voter, without distinction of language, creed, or race. J. H. Silbert is well known. Whoever knows him trusts his platform and knows that he can vote for no better man. As a jurist Silbert has a reputable standing in the profession. He needs no recommendation, be it from whatever side, for no one can deny that he is best qualified for the position as lawmaker. Silbert has served his community and state to the best of his ability and respect for his respect and recognition of his colleagues, and especially of the entire press. Silbert, while a member of the Ohio State Legislature, was the first one to sponsor, and became the author of the bill to compensate one of our own, Joseph Weaver, in the sum of $15,000 for damages which he received in being imprisoned in the state jail for two years for failing to two years awaiting execution. Silbert has also sent a great many of our boys and girls to Wilberforce, where because of his good work they are now receiving a college education. Silbert is honest, diligent, and devoted, and has always been a friend of our race and our people. For J. H. Silbert for Municipal Judges and for a vote for the right man. Give that to Silbert and elect him to the office and position for which he is best fitted and the best man. DOINGS OF THE RACE. The Wilberforce-Tuskegee football classic in Soldiers' Field, Chicago, last week, resulted in a tie. "Negroes" are too acquiescent. Bishop F. J. McConnell (white) of the N. Y. area of the M. E. Church. Tammy Hall (Dem.), N. Y. City, still leads in the number and importance of local political positions given Afro-Americans. Dr. Mark E. Rivers has succeeded Col. Chas, W. Fillmore, former Ohioan, as leader of the 19th Assembly District of N. Y. City. Wri. M. Kelly, former editor of The N. Y. Amsterdam News, is editing and managing The Daily Citizen of that city, which made its appearance, Monday, in Harlem. Tennessee's effort to secure the extradition of Billie Smith, age 45, alias Hobart Bonard, met with defeat, last week, in Detroit. Bonard was charged with being a parole violator. NRA Unconstitutional New York City—"The National Recovery Act offends both the letter and the spirit of the entire U. S. Constitution," says U. S. Representative James M. Beck, solicitor-general P. M. Harding, in a signed article, under that heading, in the November issue of Fortune Magazine, out today. --- SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS N. HARRY L. DAVIS Even a Wonderful Reception, Sunday Afternoon, Mt. Zion Cong. Church. P. A. Cleveland's Next Mayor Given a Wonderful Reception, Sunday Afternoon, at Mt. Zion Cong. Church. --- Possibly the poorest account of one of the biggest and best political meetings held in the city of Cleveland, in recent years, appeared in Monday's Plain Dealer, Cleveland's only morning paper. It showed thotful Republicans of the city for the purpose of showing the solute need of a morning Republican newspaper in this city. The effort to minimize the local political effect of Sunday afternoon's Davis-for-Mayor meeting at Mt. Zion Cong. Church, which was attended by fully 5,000 persons, was so glaring that about everybody the writer came in to see. The writer who saw Monday's Plain Dealer, expressed themselves frankly and fully. That sort of thing certainly does not make readers of the Plain Dealer or increase its business in any way. The great attraction, of course, was the Hon. Oscar De Priest of Chicago, our only member of the lower house of The Congress who still continues to be a big drawing-card in Cleveland at election time. The crowd packed the large church-auditorium, the steps and sidewalk in front of it, and was enthusiasm itself in its espousal of the candidacy of the Democratic candidate for mayor of the city of Cleveland as Priest was advertised as the principal speaker, but in effect, on the large audience, was replaced by Ex-Mayor Davis, whose reception on his entrance, and at the close of his speech, was indeed exceptional, remarkable, amounting to an ovation! The great gathering was a real mass-meeting sponsored by the organizations of the 11th, 12th, 17th, 18th and 19th Wards, strongholds of Republicanism. Maurice Maschke, until recently county Republican Executive committee-chairman; Councilman Herman H. Finkle, "the little Napoleon of Ward 12"; Atty. Alex. Bernstein, leader of the ward; Mrs. Mary L. Forrest, Republican women's county leader; George H. Bender and others spoke very interestingly in behalf of Republicanism, particularly the candidacy for mayor of the Hon. Harry L. Davis. An Appreciation. Mr. Maschke said the Eleventh, Twelfth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth and Nineteenth Wards had been so good to the Republican party that the party owed a debt that time could not repay. He asked that the wards get behind Davis in this mayoralty campaign as they had behind the Republican cause in the past. Mr. Davis told the large audience that if his campaign in the primary election had not been successful he would at this time be raising his voice for Martin L. Sweeney, who was eliminated in the primary election. It was no more than reasonable to expect, he said, that Sweeney supporters did not show up because he did. Davis said that City Hall might be swept clean of Miller Democrats. Mr. Davis' talk was brief "I do not only want to be your housekeeper," he said. "I also want to clean your house (City Hall) of all Miller Democrats." Fiery Congressman De Priest began by asking if there was one "black Democrat" in his audience. No one raised a hand. Then he said that he could conceive that there were "Negro" Democrats—those who were guided by their own selfish interests and not by the best interests of their race. "If you make the mistake and vote for a ticket," he said, "it will be a mistake of the heart and the mind, both. Just at this time, the eyes of the nation are on Cleveland. I came here because I wanted to do what I could for the Republican party. The nation is THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, dotNe that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWWSI who are finished in the section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. watching this election in Cleveland because what you do here—while this is only a mayoralty election—will be an index of what Republicans can look forward to in the national election." He then condemned Democrats in Cleveland to the state and at the national capital. "They have made a botch out of every job in government that they OJCAR OE PRIEST have undertaken. Before this winter is over," he told the audience, "it is going to be the worst winter you have ever experienced!" **Eager to Help Our People.** Being a congressman always on the front line, opportunity for service to the race, work, even in a position to know whether the Republicans or the Democrats were earnestly interested in the welfare of the Afro-American. He knew that only the Republican party offered us justice, he said, and that he made over curtailments in expenditures by the present administration, he said. Continuing: "But how were expenses cut? They were cut by slashing the pay of federal employees, by reducing the pensions of Civil War veterans—not many are and those who are who are not food skidding on a human peel; by reducing pensions of Spanish-American War veterans, and World War veterans, and by even reducing hospitalization of World War veterans. That's the Democrats in office. When you come to mark your X of the month, Nov. 7, next month, mark it straight." Mrs. Forrest told of the tenseness at headquarters on election nights. "We know that if returns from the Eleventh, Twelfth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth and Nineteenth Wards have come in and been counted, and we are still behind," she said. "We know that we have been beaten." We know that we have been approximately one-third of the Republican vote of the city of Cleveland At the Davis-for-Mayor and Finkle-for-Council mass meeting held, Tuesday evening, in a Finkle headache land Ave, among the many good things Mr. Davis said during he (Continued on Page 2) The GAZETTE PUBLISHER EVERY SATURDAY One Year ..... $2.00 Six Months ..... 1.00 Subscribers are requested to remit by postoffice money order or registered letter.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1933. Hon. Edw. T. McGrady of Washington, D. C., assistant secretary of labor and assistant administrator of NRA, urges the Afro-American to join "with his fellow-men in a trade union in order to receive his portion of the benefits, along with other groups." Good advice. Our old friend, Major R. R. Wright, of Philadelphia, has our heartfelt sympathy in the recent loss of his good wife who had been more than a helpmate to him for so many years. The Major, who was a paymaster in the U. S. Army, during the World War, has been on the retired list since soon after its close. The U. S. Public Works Administration is planning the construction of low-rent slum clearance apartments in large cities at Federal expense, to be built without the assistance of the municipalities. They are to be rented or sold directly by a government corporation to be formed for that purpose.—Pittsburgh Courier. We sincerely hope that the foregoing is true. It is not, however here in Cleveland which has been allotted twelve million dollars by the government, the city to raise two million more, making fourteen in all. The local housing plans bar, from participation, the lowest income groups which include our people. This is done by too high rent. MRS. ANNIE E. MALONE. Mrs. Rosamond Stewart of Newark, N. Y., president of our National Beauty Culturists League, wrote Mrs. Annie E. Malone, president of Poro College, Chicago, that she was sorry that Mrs. Malone did not agree with her relative to the acceptance of a separate (lower) code for our beauty culturists than that given to those of the other class or race, saying that our beauty culturists' work is entirely different from theirs. We fail to see what that has to do with it or how it would justify the drawing of a color-line in the code which would provide for lower pay for our beauty culturists. The decision of NRA that there would be no separate or color-line code is of course very gratifying and a splendid rebuke for Mrs. Stewart. Score another one for Mrs. Annie E. Malone. SETS A GOOD EXAMPLE. Mrs. Myrtle Douglass of New York City has filed a suit for $25,000 (damages), under the Illinois Civil Rights Law, against R. W. Snedeker (white), owner of a restaurant at 122 Main St., Aurora, Ill. She charges she was abused, manhandled and finally thrown out of Snedeker's place of business, July 19, '33, because she refused to leave the place thru the rear door. Mrs. Douglass was permitted to use the cafe restroom and when about to leave the place was told to use the back door. As a result of her damage suit, she will undoubtedly teach Snedeker a much-needed lesson. Many more of our people in Illinois and Ohio, as well as other states in the North, ought to follow Mrs. Douglass' example when insulted and mistreated in public places of amusement, entertainment, etc. More power to her kind! SEGREGATION URGED Clark Howell Foreman (white) of Atlanta, Ga., says: "The only way the 'Negro' can develop is thru group-effort. I propose that the U. S. Public Works Administration help him get started in building his own self-sufficient community." This is the theory advanced over twenty-five years ago in Booker T. Washington's famous Atlanta speech in which he said that the two races (colored and white) could live in this country "separate as the fingers of the hand." That was the day U. S. segregation was born. Clark Howell Foreman is but re-echoing that "Booker T." fallacy, one that is daily becoming increasingly more harm- ful because of prejudiced Americans' efforts to practice it. Such a thing is impossible for the very good reason that, even if it were attempted, there is no power save divine power that would keep the other class of people from mingling and living with our people in their "own self-sufficient community." Then such a thing is impossible under the federal laws of the land, if not local laws. It is about time for all of our so-called leaders to awaken to the fact that Clark Howell Foreman is but giving utterance to the desire of a great number of the leaders of the other race, throut the length and breadth of this land. HON. HARRY L. DAVIS. (Continued from Page 1) course of his very effective address was the following: "I have always been of liberal tendencies. I advise my friends now to vote for me, and elect me. Any question raised as to my having been a liberal is done to mislead the voters. One story is being circulated by the Democratic opposition for the purpose of creating race prejudice and hatred. Mayor Ray T. Miller spent thousands of dollars out here trying to buy you, and when he found that couldn't be done he went into certain other districts of the city and said that I imported colored labor (people) to Cleveland when mayor, many years ago. I said then and I say now, that is not true! The Almighty put us all wrong, and you want to be treated fairly and justly, and that's what you're going to get when I am again mayor, after Nov. 13. '33. Last winter when men were cold and shivering in the Public Square, footsore and weary from looking for work, Miller sat in his warm office in the City Hall, with millions of dollars in the city treasury for public works, and refused to spend any of it. Now he's telling us how many men he's going to employ. Ask him to tell you why he didn't want to work. "Miller Hobbsy: With the Rich." "He hobnobs with the pretty rich. He has no sympathy with the common people. I want to be mayor to bring joy and happiness to you all. No one in Cleveland will go hungry while I'm mayor. He put men to work, yes, for two or three days before election, and had letters of dismissal on the day after election. That's the truth. I can prove every statement I make. Six days after election I'm going to start to surround myself with my friends, and people in sympathy with my policies. We'll clean house from top to bottom. I'm serving notice now to all those in office who are in administration they'd better pack up and leave six days after election." Under the leadership of Mrs. Lula Byrd, Mrs. Ophelia Steed and Mrs. Pauline Porter, a great Davis-for-Mayor mass meeting was held, Tuesday evening, in Temple Baptist church, E. 84th St. and Cedar Ave. Members of the 18th Ward met the school's senior officers. Another Davis-for-Mayor mass meeting was held in Teutonia Hall, cor. E. 31st St. and Scoville Ave. Wednesday evening, which was attended by Mr. Maurice Maschke, Mrs. Lucinda K. Baker and other speakers. Liquid refreshments were served. Many Davis-for-Mayor mass meetings were held nightly in different sections of the city, the past week and will be, each evening next week. In answer to a charge made by Mayor Ray T. Miller, ex-Gov. Harry L. Davis offered "$1,000 to Miller or anyone who can prove I brought any racial group to Cleveland," in reference to charges that he had imported many "Negroes" to provide cheap labor and that the laborers are positively sily as all of our people know. They show how unfriendly to the race the Mayor is. AN OPEN LETTER! Cleveland, O., Oct. 20, '33 To The Hon. Lexp. E. Carter. To The Hon Lonnie E. Carter, Dear Sir:—The members of the Baptist Ministers Progressive Union are much pleased to know that you have been appointed president of The New Housing, Inc., a project, the object, we understand, to eliminate the slum district; namely "The Roaring Third," and better living conditions there, an effort commendable and an ideal hearty support. The sad feature is that in naming of that large number of advisors, none of them were colored altho more than seventy per cent of the habities of this district are colored, all of them poor, many of them of high ideals, pure and upright, all of them of a representation on this board, not-withstanding these millions of dollars indirectly came from them. You no doubt are aware that the post war hospital councils held in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, Europe, where they have done more in two years than we in America have done in twelve, had their people at heart and were very diligent in finding out the customs, habits and needs of our city. We note there was no show of arbitrary bossism. We note also as one of your chief advisors is one Dudley Blossom who as city welfare director openly said he would not allow colored youth to train in our City Hospital (cultural institution). Do you think it right for one holding such damnable views as this to sit in judgment on projects like this? We therefore pray that you will consider, add or substitute at least one of our group. Such men as Ex-Senator John P. Green, the Hon. Harry C. Smith of the T. Brownette; Rev. Russell S. Brown, red alteristic in heart. We remain yours in this great cause. Rev. E. D. Copeland, Pres. Rev. H. D. Ammons, Sec. Rev. E. W. Mitchell, Com. Food for Thought! Philadelphia, Pa. — The Curtis Publishing Co. one of the largest in the country, for nine months, ended Sept. 30, had a net profit of $1,306,372, or $1.45 a share, on preferred stock, compared with $5,129,288, or 22 cents a common share, in the same 1932 period. The company ended Sept. 30, the company had a profit of $194,354 against a profit of $442,286 in the preceding quarter, and a profit of $150,557 in the September quarter of last year. CHE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1933. OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws. 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 mob by lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 162 1.) 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 Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceed one thousand dollars if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars.

If there be no widow or niece, such sum shall be distributed, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283.

MISSUS MEYERS 869 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 proper quarters and put it in charge of one particularly qualified for this position and 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 light 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 waste and waste and extravagance in city expenditures must stop. The spending era is over. 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 city, I shall 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. The 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 ensure that public 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 has an annual golf club which not in use in for exhibitions can be used for other purposes. I propose to convert it into a great 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 Park for some years has been without 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 Ohio. The United States and Cleveland have passed thru years of economic nightmare. We hope never experience anything like it. Permanent remedies for our economic disarray will 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. The Word, "Negro." We colored Americans' worst present blunder is use of the word, Negro, as a race name. It is useful in imbuing the minds of white people with the fool idea that we are not Americans, and not fully human beings. — Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter in the Boston Guardian. His Ohio Civil Rights Law. YA DIDN'T HIT THE BALL RIGHT AT ALL THAT TIME. MRS. MEYER? 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 in which the mob or unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 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. 12340. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12341. Whoever violates the prior 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. AN APPRECIATION.

OPPOSED TO GEORGE. | There were five Afro-American candidates for the Council in the 18th Ward prior to the recent pri- mary. Clayborne George opposed all four of them in the interest of John B. Hubbard, thereby arraigning against his candidacy all the friends of the four candidates, many of whom are bitter, active’ opponents. The Ingalls-Boiton-Norton club of the third councilmanie district, with headquarters in the 11th Ward, warned George not to oppose the candidacy of Dr, E. J. Gregg, their candidate for the Council in’ Ward 11. In spite of this warning, George did that very thing, with the result that he has the largest Republican club of men and women voters in the third district actively opposing his candidacy for a *Muny” judge- ship. Th addition to this, as was made very plain by every, candidate during the recent primary campaign, Ward 18 has no bathhouse, swimming pool, playground or anything clse that Clayborne George secured dur- ing the past six years while a mem- ber of the City Council, “In the face of the foregoing and his notorious refusal to keep his pledge of four years ago, “to do all In his power to oust Color-line Wel- fare Director Dudley S. Blossom,” George now has the effrontery to ask the loyal, self and race respecting of our people of the city of Cleve- land to support his candidacy for a municipal judgeship, Other can- didates (white) for Judgeships, who have been making a plea for support ‘of George's candidacy, with the idea that they were coddling our voters to the extent of commending their own candidactes, had better heed the foregoing, because for every vote they gain by so doing, they are sure to lose a dozen at least. When the Cleveland Bar Associa- tion labeled George's candidacy “Not Recommended,” it was clearly within its rights, Its action was mot the result of color or race prejudice but because George doos not possess the necessary fitnest or qualifications re- quired of all candidates, without ret- rence to color or race, by the Clove. land Dar Association.

The Cleveland Metropolitan Hous: ing Authority, first in the United States formed’ to receive a 30 per cent federal grant to build housing for the lowest income groups, Tues- day chose Councilman Ernest J.

Smith of Cleve- land, Ohio, who is entering his fifty- first year as editor, owner and pub- lisher of The Cleveland Gazette, a race weekly which has the rec- ord of not being late any week or missing an edition during the past 51 years. Editor Smith served three terms in the Ohio legislature dur- ing which time he sponsored many pills of value to his race, among them being Ohio's Civil Rights law, and Mob Violence act or anti-lynch- ing law, of which California's new law is a copy, the most effective ever passed in any state. He is fearless, tojand devoted to bettering the condi- e-| tion of his race. We wish him many ¥-|years of continued good health that * |e may be enabled to continue thé c-| good work of writing strong edi- or |torials for his race's best interest. st|—Miss Delilah L, Beasley in Oak- ee |Jand (Calif.)

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D.C. ORE than 3,000 years ago Rameses II, who is credited with making the first maps, outlined estates along the Nile river. What would he think today if he walked into an automobile service station, railway station, tourists' bureau, or airplane office and could take his pick of maps that would show him the best route to almost anywhere in the world? Probably the greatest spurt in the map-making industry has been made in the last few centuries, but in the great museums of the world there are many maps and charts that were crude but helpful forerunners of the efficient work of cartographers today. Most famous of all early maps are those in the atlas or "Geography" of Claudius Ptolemy, an eight-volume work dating from about 150 A.D. Though lost to the world of learning through the Dark ages, Ptolemy's books were later rediscovered. One of the oldest manuscript copies was found at Mount Athos, and a reproduction made in 1867 is on display in the Library of Congress at Washington, D. C. Six of his eight books consist of tables of latitude and longitude for about 8,000 places. In his remaining books Ptolemy discusses the stars, mathematical problems of geography, the length of days, the sun's course, and differences in time at different places. With his books are maps of 26 countries and one map of the world. In his colossal task Ptolemy used all geographic lore that had accumulated to his time. Though crude and full of mistakes, it was the greatest step ever made in presenting world geography in scientific form. His maps show how traders and adventurers had pushed the rim of the known world as far north as the Shetlands and given size and shape to the British Isles. More of the Nile was shown and part of Africa below the equator. The Indian ocean got a new and more accurate mapping, based, no doubt, on notes brought by silk traders from the Far East. Road Maps for Crusaders. To meet the needs of the Crusaders, flocking down the highways of Europe and into Asia Minor, there developed a sort of pictorial road map. A good example in the British museum is a copy of a drawing by a St. Albans monk, Matthew Paris. Its crude pictures show the towns along the route from London to Jerusalem. The "map" of Palestine also shows the sea, with ships carrying crowds of people. China, Persia, Egypt, all had their part in early map science; and the Arabs undoubtedly borrowed from Ptolemy. Yet it was the Arabs who, when Christian learning lagged in the Eighth and Ninth centuries, made the most important geographic advances. Printing, which, like the compass, probably came to Europe from the East, had the same galvanic effect on map making as on some other arts. Ptolemy's "Geography," now translated, became so popular that it was to go through more than fifty editions. Columbus used it; despite its errors, or thanks to them, he accidentally found the New world, which discovery ultimately set all civilization to revising its maps. For decades after the voyages of Columbus, Europe seethed with excitement and new ideas. When Charles V received letters from Cortez describing the splendors of Montezuma's court, with its golden dishes as big as carriage wheels, all Spain was agitated. When news broke that Pizarro had caught an Inca king and held him for ransom of a roomful of gold, equal to $15,000,000, excitement was almost unendurable. All nations that could build or borrow boats put to sea, and map making flourished. As the world's true pattern took form, medieval maps with unexplored areas decorated by sea serpents, mermaids, wrecked galleons, and chubby angel faces blowing the winds, began to fade from use. Mercator's Great Work. Gerhard Kremer, known by his Latinized name of Mercator, was among the first to break with these old traditions. Famous methematician and cartographer of Flanders, he drew a world chart in 1560 on the "Mercator Projection," which gave navigators a new and safer system for plotting their courses. By this projection lines of latitude and longitude are mathematically spaced and drawn at right angles to each other. On this grid sailors have merely to rule a straight line as their course and sail to port. Because the earth is round, this does not give the shortest route between two points, but it does show the right "bearing." In his time, Mercator helped to change map making from an art into a science. New and accurate instruments for measuring the ground were coming into use, and slowly they led the way to topographic surveys. Mercator's son, Rumold, carried on his father's map trade. When Rumold died his brother-in-law, Judocus Hondius, took it over. The Hondius earth map of 1595, now in the British museum, traces Sir Francis Drake's course around the world. Dutch map publishers led the world in the Seventeenth century and the French in the Eighteenth. A French scientist rolled a carriage wheel across the northern French plains to measure a degree arc of the meridian. In time came D'Anville, issuing a new map of China drawn by the Jesuits in 1718. Other good map makers arose in Germany, England, Austria and Switzerland. No country is so well surveyed Great Britain; no maps anywhere are comparable, for information and range of scale, with those of its ordinance survey. Early American Maps. Before the Revolution such maps of our country as existed were drawn mostly by those European powers who had colonies here. Among such were the early Spanish maps of Florida, the Southwest, and California; also Lewis Evans' map of the "Middle British Colonies in America," published in Philadelphia in 1753. What has been called the most important map in United States history is that drawn by Dr. John Mitchell, showing the French and British dominions in North America. After Cornwallis yielded at Yorktown and British diplomats met the Americans at Paris to frame the treaties of 1782-83, this map was used. Of it John Adams wrote: "We had before us . . . a variety of maps; but it was the Mitchell map upon which was marked out the whole boundary lines of the United States." During the first half of the Sixteenth century such Spanish explorers as Cabezba de Vaca, Coronado, Deto, and others had made crude maps of their routes; so had the French, voyaging the Great Lakes and canoeing down the Mississippi. William Clark, of the Lewis and Clark expedition, in 1804-6, made a map showing their route to Oregon and the north boundary of Louisiana, then in the upper Missouri basin. Later came Zebulon Pike, the Santa Fe traders and the beaver trappers from St. Louis—Bonneville, Walker, Fremont, and others—all shown on Frank Bond's "Routes of the Principal Explorers," published by the United States land office in 1907. No ship can enter port safely without a chart that shows buoys, lights, shoals, channel depths, and prominent objects ashore to steer by. The United States coast and geodetic survey has been making such charts for 116 years. After the Civil war, mapping of the United States, particularly of the great West, began in earnest, directed by the newly created United States geological survey. Long before that, to aid settlers, the government land office had done much mapping, often under contract and not always accurate. Because the United States is so vast, no private firm or person could afford to survey and map its whole area. For more than 50 years the geological survey has been working to complete the topographic mapping of the Union. Of its total area of more than 3,000,000 square miles, about one-half is now surveyed and the results published in nearly 3,800 topographic maps. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1933. Attractive Schoolgirl Fashions By CHERIE NICHOLAS SCHOOL days are here! Now, just what do you suppose is the thought uppermost in the minds of these little school-faring daughters, as they wend their way back to classrooms after a carefree vacation—books and studies or the problem of "what to wear?" We think we know but are not going to tell. Anyway, it does seem as if the subject of big-sister college and campus apparel has had its share of front-page publicity, for the departments which specialize in going away outfits have exceeded all previous records in making a display of complete wardrobes which included everything needed from a sports fur coat to the most "scrumptious" formal. We think little sister should share some of the honors and attention in this matter of stylish and practical clothes, and so what we are going to talk about at this moment is the apparel needs of the younger girls who like to be well dressed in their classrooms at grammar and high school every whit as much as do their elders who go away to college and fashionable centers of learning. Here's something we believe will be interesting to most every school girl, it's that shirtwaist dresses are "all the style." Mother and big sister are having their dresses with waistbands buttoned up the front, tailored of broadcloth and "tweedy" silks and the new ribbed crepes. Procks of this type are always neat and trim looking, which is exactly what makes them so practical and good looking for school wear, and so designers of junior styles have adopted this fashion for girls of school age. The little girl standing to the left in the picture has on one of the new shirtwaist types. This particular model happens to be made of a ring-dotted wash silk with white plique trimming and large white pearl buttons. The TWEED WITH KNIT By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE FASHION WEEK Many of the most outstanding fall costumes interwork two and even three materials. For instance, a handsome outfit will use, perhaps, brown tweed for the coat, rust colored camel's hair for the skirt and for the blouse plaid velvet combining rust, brown and beige. The ensemble pictured carries out the idea of working contrasting materials together. The dress, which is a two-piece (hat to match) is a chenille knit in the new grayhaze color. The stunning coat with gloves to match is of sturdy brown tweed. dress could be effectively copied in some one or other of the pretty rayon mixtures which are so inexpensive and which give such good service. The front plants in the skirt give necessary fulness. The what-shall-I-wear question is never without an answer for the schoolgirl who includes a knitted outfit in her wardrobe. The knitted costume worn by the little miss seated is a "perfect dear." It is one of those very new and very stylish twin sweater outfits about which there has been so much talk this season. This one has the cleverest neckline—bout shaped, if you please, and outlined in a bi-color bordering done in soft, fluffy angora wool. The rest of the knitted blouse and skirt is in a boucle finish which is nonstretching and nonsug-ging. There is a cardigan jacket (on the seat beside her) which belongs to this ensemble, which is why this is called a twin-sweater costume. In all school days there comes a time when "we're going to have a party" is the good tidings which one little girl whispers to another—and then what? Well, why not ask mother. She knows. And this is what she knows—that it is up to her to help little daughter choose the prettiest party frock brought out this season—and here it is. It's one of the prettiest of the type which is not too formal for afternoon wear yet is dressy enough for informal evening affairs. The little daughter, standing to the right in the picture, is wearing it, and as you see it is made of velvet because they are saying in Paris that velvet is very smart for children's wear. This charming frock is dark wine in color and it is enlivened with a cunning girdle of plaid taffetta with sheer silk moussie seline fittings in the very chic high neck and about the sleeves. © 1922, Western Newspaper Union. FUR COATS SHOWN IN VARIED LENGTHS Furs for fall seem to be divided into three big classes. First, the long classical coat in black broadtail, semi-fitted with just a little ease following the figure. One model, cut in this form, in black broadtail, has a squirrel shawl collar edged in silver fox which builds out the shoulders and also gives them the new smart height. There also are some models in new shades of gray broadtail. Second, the three-quarter style, but not with that bulky look of some of the now popular swagger coat. This isn't particularly practical in fur as it gives too much thickness to the figure. Third, fur scarves and capes, or very short boleros. Items of fur which already are being sold in great numbers are silver fox capes, the black broadtail type of coat trimmed with silver fox, and a new beige ermine trimmed with blue fox. One Dress Can Be Made to Do Work of Three or Four It's pretty nice to be able to make one dress do the work of three or four, but it isn't fair to overtax it with as sorted trimming. Three different kinds of collars for a simple black silk dress will give you three different kinds of charm, and if you are careful in their selection you will have a good sports frock, a good luncheon-in-town dress and cocktail costume all in one. Chiffon a Favorite Despite all the new and lovely materials that have swept over the fashion world recently, chiffon continues to hold its own. The World Moves On!
