Elden of this city, for many months a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor of Ohio, did during the recent campaigns, or at any other time, that caused former Leader Maurice Maschke, to back former City Manager Daniel E. Morgan for the nomination, formally announcing the latter's candidacy, a few weeks ago for the first time. Every experienced politician knows that with two candidates in this county for the nomination, Cuyahoga is thereby put out the running, the polling balance of success for either Elden or Morgan. No one knows this better than Mr. Maschke, nor is the Elden-Morgan conflict calculated to promote "party unity" in this political balkwick, something absolutely necessary if Republicans are to win, this fall, and "capture the county offices." The defeat of the regular candidate for president of the Cuyahoga County League of Republican clubs, the defeat of Herman Kohn for president of the City Council, the defeat of Martin A. McCormack for member of the board of elections and the smothering of the incipient candidacy of Mrs. Carl H. Hanna for the same position are hardly results that will promote "party unity" but are pretty generally regarded as stones in Mayor Harry L. Davis' path that are not calculated "to keep the party intact" and political results that are not calculated "to struggle" two years from now, which in all probability will start this fall. They are unquestionably sure "to create a schism" in the ranks of the Republican party of this county. HEAR! HEAR! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The Young People's Progressive League of the 12th Ward is not a Democratic club as announced in The Gazette, last week, but is non-political, says Dr. L. L. Rodgers, Democratic leader of that ward. The club was organized for the purpose of advancing the general welfare of our people, both economically and socially, and to open up avenues of employment, especially for our young people, Dr. Rodgers says. B. C. Colson of the 16th Ward says that there is no Afro-American Republican club in that ward and that the ward-organization has refused to admit our voters. He also says that "about six years ago, the Republican Bee club was organized in the Quincy E. 79th St. section. A few years ago, the Mutual Republican club was organized in the Kinsman section." Judging from the above, it looks as if the ward is for the 1500 Afro-American voters in the ward, if what Mr. Colson says is true. It is difficult to believe that there is a Republican organization in the city of Cleveland that refuses admission to Afro-American Republicans. Current rumor has it that Councilman Bundy has named the organization of councilmen from our four wards, 11 (Payne), 12 (Finkle), 17 (Bundy) and 18 (George-Hubbard). "The Syndicate." This combination was the one given over 200 jobs, some weeks ago, soon after the mayor or took office and announced that the ward leaders would not be permitted to distribute the jobs, the result being that in many outlying sections of the city, a great deal of industry is factified in the ranks of the party with the statement that only Jewish and colored Republicans were being given jobs. This charge had considerable foundation in fact and is still being made to the detriment of both races and the Republican party of the city of Cleveland and is to be deplored. The Rounder does not believe that Mayor Harry L. Davis is directly responsible for this condition. As The Rounder remarked, last week, the complaints are growing daily as a result of the lack of proper management at the Portland-Outhwaite Center. One good story is told indicating what all generally agree is that institution's greatest need just at this time, and this is the story: It seems that a hold-over institution called attention. Monday evening, to the fact that the pool had to be emptied, cleaned and refilled with clean water containing chloride. The "brother" in charge, to whom this was told by the hold-over, suggested that they wait until the next morning to do the job with the help of a couple of C. W. A. workers. Next morning, after the pool has been given its "bath," the "brother" in charge gravely and solemnly informed the hold-over that all the work had been done except putting the "chloroform" in the water in the pool. Last week Thursday, a local daily paper carried the following article: Heads City Department Samuel Terrell, an employee (assistant superintendent) of the city garbage department, today was elevated to superintendent of maintenance and garbage collection at an increase in salary of $3.20 a month, Service Director Eirick announced. Terrell was assistant superintendent of the garbage plant up to Thursday. Just how the "$3.20 a "THE NEXT EMANCIPATION" To Be Discussed at Moose Hall by a Socialist Leader From "The Empire City." Frank R. Crosswalth, an outstanding Socialist and labor organizer, will speak, Feb. 19, at Moose Hall. 1001 Walnut Ave., under the auspices of the Socialist party of Cuyahoga County. His subject will be, "The Next Emancipation." Mr. Crosswalth, a native of Frederick-stad, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, came to this country in his "teens" and Frank R. Crosswalt. started to work as an elevator operator.

He is the editor of The "Negro" Labor News Service, N.Y. City, and was a candidate for Congress. Socialist party ticket in 1932. Several years ago, he was one of a party that was mistreated in a local restaurant. The ensuing court fight resulted in a victory for civil rights. LIKE "THE OLD RELIABLE." Cleveland, O., Feb. 5, '34. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. Dear Mr. Smith:—The Gazette was on my desk when I returned to the office after a short absence on a lecture trip. I thorously enjoyed the paper. It is very interesting and cleverly gotten up. I was particularly interested in your courageous stand in your editorial columns for their editorial that you stand for. Best wishes Raymond J. Jeffreys Cleveland, O., Jan. 31, '34. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, City. My dear Mr. Smith:—I herein acknowledge the receipt of the extra numbers of The Gazette sent to me. I passed them on to other readers and told them that in the columns of our most valuable paper, The Gazette, are found important, worthwhile truths for all peoples, but especially for Afro-Americans, that are found in no other paper or periodical. The heroism with which you strike the baneful evil, lynching, is in my estimation great and worthy of commendation. Keep it up! "The pen is mightier than the sword." I liken Them to the sword. Very truly yours, (Mrs.) Sarah E. Cole. PRAISE OFFICER HIGGINS. Unafraid As a mother I hold much gratitude for Patrolman Higgins for his protection of those two school children, at the time his own Brave Officer. In The Cleveland News of Feb. 1 was a picture of Officer Lucius Higgins, who saved the lives of the two little colored girls when he leaped in front of a skidding truck. We, the colored women of the 1919 Research and Hiawata clubs, want to express our thanks to this police officer. MRS. LOUIS S. JONES. month increase in salary" and the superintendency of maintenance and garbage collections, a section or "department" of the plant, are an elevation for the assistant superintendent of the entire plant, is hard to see. As a matter of fact, it is NOT an elevation but just the opposite. When Sam's successor is appointed, he will find himself under that individual and amenable to his orders rather than above and independent of them. It looks very much to The Rounder, and many others, as if Councilman Payne is fooling Sam in order to get his place for someone else. Watch and see!

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS GUILTY! NTY PROSECUTOR AL TO TAKE THE THOMAS- SE INTO THE COURTS of the Civil Service Commission at Its Investigation, Last Monday Morning. NOW THE OFFICIAL TO TAKE THE THOMASPAYNE CASE INTO THE COURTS President Green of the Civil Service Commission Announced at Its Investigation, Last Monday Morning. fresh and Monday morning at 10 o'clock, the Civil Service Commission started its investigation of the Troy Thomas-sCouncilman Lawrence O. Payne affidavit, as announced at its session the Monday morning previous. President George Green, who presided, said that the commission had decided that it had no jurisdiction in the matter, because Thomas was a laborer and because Councilman Payne was an elected official, but emphatically stated that Payne was guilty of violating section 26 of the Constitution, and that the attorney should be investigated by the mayor, City Council or the county prosecutor. Since the mayor and the Council are both Republican, such action is hardly to be expected from them. But County Prosecutor Frank T. Cullitan is an aggressive and fearless Democrat who will undoubtedly take up the matter at an early date. It will be recalled that, in substance, Troy Thomas, white-wing and World War veteran, said in his attitudit "that he was given a job in the white wings department of the city's service by Councilman Lawrence O. Payne in November last; that soon after his first pay-day on or about Dec. 9, 1933. Payne met E. Payne and told him when jobs like the one he held were given "everyone agreed to give a dollar of each pay to a 11th Ward Republican club;" that he told Payne he didn't "know anything about it;" that later his precinct committeeman told him "Payne said come over or else send that dollar;" that he told the committeeman that "he wasn't going anywhere" and that he told him when jobs like the third day after he got paid, about Dec 12, 1933, his foreman came to him and told him he had better go and see Payne; that he asked the latter replied, "for that dollar you are supposed to pay" and that "I wouldn't work any longer if I didn't pay" that on or about Dec. 28, 1933, when he received his second pay, whom he received to his "foreman" home on Dec. 31, 1933 for a club meeting; that at that meeting the foreman again told him that Councilman Payne wanted to see him; that he said "for what" and again he was told "for that dollar. You haven't paid any;" that the foreman told him "you can't catch him when he now office now put sure to go to his home and see him" that after the meeting he went to Payne's home, 2222 E. 40th St., where he was asked by Payne if he was or was not going to pay the dollar; that he (Thomas) replied, "I didn't see that I should pay any dollar for my job;" and that he (Payne) told him he wouldn't have any job and it wasn't any use for me; that he (Toole) to hold the gate open for one house been there were paying it;" that he (Thomas) told Payne regardless of that he wouldn't pay it; and that Gray (foreman) "fired" him (Thomas) on Jan. 6, 1934. In an interview in the Plain Dealer of Jan. 14, 1934, Councilman Payne virtually admitted the truthfulness of salient parts of the Thomas as ifavidly which throw him automatically in direct contact with section 26 of the City Charter which reads as follows: No member of Council shall, except in so far as is necessary in the performance of the duties of his office, directly or indirectly interfere in the conduct of the administrative department, or directly or indirectly take any part in the appointment, promotion or dismissal of any officer, or employee in the service of the city other than the officers or employees of the Council. Accompanied by his legal representative, Atty. Max Manow, of 422 Schofield Bldg., the World War Veteran was promptly on time in the Civil Service Commission's rooms, City Hall, Monday morning at 10 o'clock, for the promised investigation. All three members of the commission, George Green, president; Judge dan B. Cull and former Councilman Clayborne George, were on hand. The investigation was made a brief one as a result of the president of President Green given above—the commission had no jurisdiction in the case that Payne was guilty of violating section 26 of the City Charter, and that the matter should be investigated by others than the Civil Service Commission. Atty. Manow secured a second statement of the foregoing fact from Mr. Green, an THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Oldo Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and compared with any work illumined with rank or importance in the NEWEST AND REST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. the investigation closed without the five city employees (two colored) present being given an opportunity to testify. The result of the hearing was a splendid victory for the World War Veteran, Troy Thomas, because President Green was most emphatic in the very pertinent, telling and far-reaching statement he made. The matter is now one for county governor to handle and entirely too important to the city of Cleveland to be overlooked or side-tracked and, too, by a Democratic county official. Either the mandates of the City Charter are to be obeyed, or ignored! If the latter is to be the rule, then the city of Cleveland is without a legal basis to stand on and members of the City Council free to do as they please in all matters of vital concern to the municipality. WHERE WAS JANE HUNTER? His Thousand Didn't Get Him Anywhere with the White Control of the Phillis Wheatley Association—Refused a $5,000 Contract. Cleveland, Feb. 5, '34. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. Dear Sir: The other day a fire occurred in the old Phillis Wheatley building cor. E. The St. and Central Ave., causing nearly $5,000 damage. This building is owned by the Phillis Wheatley Association. The tenants of the building are "Negroes." With all the unemployment "Negroes" especially have experienced lately, one would think that the management of the affairs of the Phillis Wheatley would have engaged some "Negro" contractor to make the damage. However, despite the fact that a "Negro" made a bid for the job, and it is said his bid was lower than any other, the job was turned over to a white contractor. I understand the letting of the contract for this repair was in the hands of what is called a fiscal board of trustees, all white, headed by a white attorney by the name of Mark L. Thomsen and another white attorney by the name of Arthur D. Baldwin. It is said that in the scramble to let this contract to a white man certain white members of the so-called fiscal board of trustees of the Phillis Wheatley Association of Oaks holds with each other—one trying to get the contract for a firm in which he was interested, while another (who finally succeeded) was seeking to get the contract for a firm for which he was serving as attorney. All of this going on while the poor "Negro" contractor, for the benefit of whose race the institution is supposed to exist, remains unemployed. And another strange thing is that this same "Negro" contractor who made the bid for the work, doing the campaign for the Phillis Wheeler building fund actually contributed $1,000 while the white contractor never even did the institution until he found out through his attorney that he could get some work out of it. Just such doings as this seem to indicate that "Negroes" should be aroused and awakened to the condition they are facing on every hand. Are they to be forever made mofos of by certain designing "Negroes" and whites who ingratiate themselves into the confidence of "Negroes" and have themselves elected to membership on boards of various institutions only to use official connections to manipulate the affairs of these institutions for their personal benefit? It's bad enough to lock the "Negro" contractor out of work on public and other buildings but to rob him of a chance to make a living by repairing (what is supposed to be) his own property is just about the limit. ("Negroes not own or control the Phillis Wheatley Association property." Editor). Yours in the interest of fair play, George Burdick.

Someone should tell Will Rogers that there is no difference between the mongrel terms used to designate any race or class of people. The insult is the same. Don’t spend your money with the Gulf Refining Company until the “funny man of the daily newspapers” apologizes for his insults of the last few Sundays. No one but Rogers himself could ‘have so thoroly convinced us that he was such a consummate “Jackass” as to persist in insulting any class of people in his work over the radio for the Gulf Refining Company. i RACE PREJUDICE. In a letter, under date Feb. 3, ‘34, to the Hon. Lockwood Thompson, chairman of the state board of liquor control, Columbus, 0., Representa- tive Chester K. Gillespie informed Mr. Thompson that he had received hundreds of protests against the State civil service commission's re- quiring applicants for positions in the state liquor stores to disclose their race. This same thing, in ad- @ition to sending a photograph, is fequired by officials administering @ new state law for barbers making application for a license to work at their trade. And just where was our good friend Representative Gillespie when this law was enacted? . ‘This sort of thing was inaugurat- ed; years ago, by the Thomas Wood- row Wilson southern Democratic ad- ministration and has been adopted here in Ohio under a Democratic ad- ministration, It is the work, pure and simple, of racial prejudice and ‘ought not to have any place in this state, and Gov. George White, who is to stand, this fall, as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for JU, S. Senator, has an opportunity to show the large Afyo-American vote of Ohio just where he stands in the matter of racial prejudice. It he grasps it and acts as he should, and also) refuses to appoint ‘Ohio Supreme Court Justice Florence Allen to the circuit court bench, it will almost insure his triumphant nomination and election. Judge Al: Jen, our readers will recall, was one Of the members of the state supreme court to sign the now notorious “so- olal-equality” decision of the Ohio Supreme Court in the Doris Weaver on. “TWAS EVER THUS! In spite of the insistence and good work of Assistant Attorney General ‘Sawyers of Missouri and instructions of the court, the cases resultant from ‘he lynch-murder of the 19-year-old youth, Lloya Warner, in St. Joseph, Mo., Nov. 28, "3, have been drop- ped, following the acquittal by a jury of a member of the mob who was charged with being 2 leader of {t, Six other alleged leaders of the mob of brutes that broke into the county jail, lynched Warner and burned his body, were under indict- ment for murder. Missouri is still a southern state as this proves. The unfortunate result was not unexpect- ed. The fact that » group of per- sons threw rotten eggs at the homes of members of the jury shows that there are at least a few residents of St, Joseph who still have some re- spect for the law ridiculed by the failure of the effort to punish mem- bers of that mob. — A REAL MAN. Patrolman Lucius Higgins, last week Thursday while on duty, saved the lives of two six-year-old chil- dren, girls of the race, when they were caught in the path of a skid- ding truck in front of Wooldridge school, corner of Grant Ave. .and Kinsman Rd., and thus showed be- yond all question or doubt that he was not only a brave officer but a REAL man. The children were Dor- othy Brooks, 2666 E. 67th St, and Nancy Weens of 5906 Griswold Ave. They were crossing Kinsman Rd. on their way to the side entrance of the school when Patrolman Higgins noticed the truck swerve toward them on the icy pavement. He dashed to the side of the frightened children and threw himself in front of them, taking the brunt of the truck’s force and sustaining a se- vere cut across the forehead. The little girls, clutching each others’ huand, were knocked down but es caped with minor bruises. For this unusual exhibition of bravery and real manhood, The Gazette thanks Officer Higgins for all the fair-mind- ed people of the city of Cleveland, particularly ours, and asks Director Lavelle, head of the police and fire departments of this city, to not for- get Patrolman Lucius Higgins when next he passes out recognition of ex- hibitions of real bravery and sterling manhood to members of his depart- ments. We agree thoroly with the Cleveland Daily News when it says: “A Carnegie medal, or similar re- yard, and promotion for Officer Hig- is would’ moot with the sincere tn dotsement of every parent in Cleve- land who has a child in school. Per- formance ot duty, which discounts personal safety is all in the day's work for the average policeman, but it looms as one of the finest expres- sions of nobility and courage in the Iminds of the public, nevertheless.” PROBATE PROBERS Show New Abuses in Quiz—J. W. Wills Co. Among the Undertakers ‘Mentioned—State Exam- jueves Bay. State examiners are making a thoro investigation of probate court, particularly, it is said, as to the flagrant cases of the court's mishan- dling of estates. ‘This on the sus- gestion of Judge Nelson J. Brewer, our new probate judge who says the administration of estates greatly needs reform. He is preparing plans for the improvement of the court. In it are files of 225,000 cases, many of which show gross dissipation of assets thru improper handling and the legal payment of fees. Writing on the above, I. A. Nedleman of The Cleveland Press says: Examination of estates from $1.- 000 to $1,000,000 resulted in the discovery that among others the un- dertaker-administrator settled —$1,~ 039 worth of claims against an es- tate of $813.54 by paying out $388, then paid his firm $254 for the fu- neral and allowed $50 as attorney's fees for the administrator. The un- dertaking firm is that of J. W. Wills o., 2340 E, 55th St. Of many un- deriaking firms frequently appoint- ed administrator by the court it ap- parently handles tho most cases. ‘Head of the firm is John Walter Wills Sr.; secretary-treasurer is John Walter Wills Jr. Names of the two appear on records of admin- istratorsand executors in several forms; J. W. Wills, John W. Wills, J. Walter Wills, John Walter Wills. ‘A number of cases were selected, by number and wholly at random, from the index records. They were look- ed up in order. ‘Here is what the itemized files show: CASE NO. 192695: John Boyd died Aug. 5, 1930. Application of John Waiter Wills Jr. to become ad- ministrator listed’ a Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. policy of $1010 ‘as the entire estate. On Oct. 31, 1930, Administrator Wills filed an inventory showing $1034.26 received from the insurance company. ‘On Sept. 7, 1932, the administra- tor listed expenses ‘of $707 against the estate.

Our mob-violence or antl-lynching bill was introduced im 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 constitu- tonality of the law and it has been very effective. IVinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other north- brn states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: MOBS. Section 6278. “Mob” and “lynching” defined. 6279. “Serious injury” defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lyfching. 5282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution.

(93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of Justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, mis- siles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a wum 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 as- sault ts made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the in- jury recelved therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dol- lars; or, if such injury result in per- manent disability, to earn a livell- hood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282. The legal represen- tative, of a person dying from injur- ies recelved from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exeeed five thousand dollars dam- ages for such unlawful killing.

Such sum so recov- ered 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.

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 edi- tor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894, ‘The General Code of Ohio: See. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommoda- tion and amusement, denies to a citi- zen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both, Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent juris- diction 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 Sata oS Oy: SHUMAN NATURE'S VOULEST BLOT.” @ re- chap- ae | two, My ear Is pained, ynch-| | My soul is sick with every ginal day's report dam-| | Or wrong and outrage, with 3 y. which the earth Is’ dled, There is no flesh in man's ob- durate heart. the] Ji does not teel for man; the ainst natural bond o in-) J or brotherhood Is severed as m, in| the tax such) | That falls asunder at the touch judg of fire. - 162) | He finds bis fellow guilty of a skin at so| | Not colored lke bis own; and reiv- having power ened | | To enforce the wrong, for auch guar a worthy cause ninis-| | Dooms and devotes him as his on of lawful prey.

Mr. Marley, chairman of the world committee to aid the victims of Ger- ‘man fascism, possesses an intimate knowledge of the Hitler terror-re- gime which has decreed that no German, in whoso veins “Negro” blood has entered since 1800, is en- titled to certain rights.

The city is of special tnterest to “Americans because Martin Waldseemuller, the geographer, who was the first to put the name “Amer- fea” on a map, was a Freiburger. ‘Two centuries before the Christian era, the Celts roamed over the site of Freiburg. ‘They were _gradually pushed out of the Upper Rhine val- ley, however, by German tribes. ‘Then came the Romans. In B. ©. 14 Tiberius crossed the Rhine, and shortly, what with the Roman legions on one side and the Germant on the other, the fertile plain known as Brels. au and the wild forest land called the Schwarswald became what they still are, frontier country. In A. D. 74 a military road was built from what 1s now Strasbourg to the Danube. ‘Those were boom days, for under the protection of the Romans trade flowed up and down the road that ran along the right bank of the Rhine trom Basel to Mainz, and in favorable pices forts and small settlements sprang up. It was then that Baden- weller, slightly to the south of the present Freiburg, and Baden, to the north, first achieved renown as fash- fonabie bathing resorts. ; In about two hundred years the Roman bubble burst. The German tribee pounced down, took the forts, and again became masters of the Rhine. By a curious turn of fortune in the Seventh century, the Celts again ap- peared on the scene, this time in the form of Celtle Irish missionaries. By the end of the Eighth century the: Germans were mostly Christian- zea. Founded by Duke Konrad. By the beginning of the Twelfth cen- tury the Breisgau, of which Freiburg was the ancient capital, was a thriv- ing district. Farmers tilled the heavy, fruitful soll of the floor plain, planted vineyards on the warm south slopes, and trafficked with wandering ped- diers from Strasbourg and Basel and ‘even from Italian cities and the Baltic. ‘Obviously the one thing needed to eomplete the picture was a center of trade, a elty. And In 1120 Duke Kon- md of Zahringen cast his eye about for « sultable site. Just where the river Dreisam ‘emerges from its valley and flows out into the Rhine plain, on-a well-inclined flat of outwash grayel, stood a small Aunting lodge. Here was the deal sity site. Before it spread the fertile Rhine plain; behind it ranged a semi-circle ef mountains split by the valley of ‘the Dreisam. Here was ample water ‘supply, sufficient slope to insure good drainage, and protection from incle- ‘ment weather and foes. Most Impor- tant of all, here was a Junction of roads, the north-south road leading from Italy to the Baltic, and the east- west rond leading from France to Swabia and the Danube country. The new town then, would be a crossroads affair, through which travelers com- ing from every direction would have topass ‘With the hunting’ lodge ag a central point, the duke carefully planned the city of Freiburg. Four principal gates gave entrance to the town. Two prin- cipal streets crossed the hut at right angles and formed four large blocks, which were cut up into smaller blocks by narrow alleys running parallel to the main streets, | Giving play to bis'tmagination, the Guke devised a scheme entirely new to medieval city planning, which caused a flutter among travelers of the day, whereby a series of swift flowing brooks, supplied with water trom the Dreisam, were directed down all the streets and alleys. ‘These brooks carried away the sew. age and insured a supply of fresh wa- ter, giving to Freiburg a reputation, which it has never lost, for cleanli- ness and healthfulness. They took the place of washtubs and they acted as first ald to the fire department. It was an Ingenious arrangement. Since a town ts not a town without inhabitants, the versatile duke worked ‘out a plan to boost population. He named his offspring Freiburg and promised freedom to any man who ‘would live within its walls for a year and a day. Such intoxicating liberty naturally drew people from far and near, and within a hundred years of its founding Freiburg was one of the most important cities of the upper Rhine. How It Was Peopled. It 1s astonishing how many of the ehnracteristics of that Freiburg of the ‘Twelfth century survive today. The walls are gone, save for scattered re mains here and there. Two of the gates liave vanished, leaving only the highly decorated and Impressive tower gates, Martinstor and Schwabentor; but the spot where the hunting lodge stood 1s still the center of the city. and the principal streets of 1120 which intersect this spot are still the prin. cipal streets In 1934. Frelburg streets have lost little of thelr medieval savor. Within the iim its of the original wall, the streets and alleys, some so narrow that only a German rarity, two thin people, can pass in them, twist and bulge and bend with startling abandon and a rakish disregard for right angles. Many of them, too, still bear their quaint old names. Oberlinden square, where a linden tree has stood, accord: Ing to definite official record, since the middle of the Twelfth century, has been known by the same name since the city was founded. ‘The brooks also remain. A few, es- pecially in the main streets, have been covered with gratings, and only the broken purl of water tells of their ex Istence. But in most of the lesser streets they® hurtle along, open and ‘lean and sparkling, exquisite expanses for small boys to sail boats, delicious places for youthful paddling when the hot days come, Ancient Houses Still Stand. Not a few of the houses that flank these narrow, twisting streets date back to the city’s Infancy. For Fret burg, unlike most of the towns of this frontier country, such as Heldelbers, ‘was never entirely razéd by enemy fre, although it has belonged In turn to the Zahringens, to Austria, Sweden, France, Italy, and Germany. It has withstood almost countless sieges and has had its suburbs burned to its very walls many times. It 1s not uncommon to see buildings with Thirteenth or Fourteenth century date plates. Some of them still bear the names which were in use long be- fore street numbers had been thought of. The Black Letter, the Golden Tankard and the White Goose are among these. ‘The odd thing about many of the old places 1s that you must really know Frelburg before you discover them. Stand at the fountain on the reputed site of the hunting lodge, for instance, and cast your eye up and down the intersecting streets on a level with the pavement. You see win- dows fall of furniture, or sausages, or hats, or flowers, or rows of those ex- traordinary wax figures whose marked family resemblance and abandoned poses are peculiar to Germany. But raise your eyes above the shop win- dows and you are back in the days of old when knights were bold. No two houses are the same height or width or color; no two roofs are the same shape or tilt. Step gables mount diz- ally, high-peaked roofs lurch skyward, dormer windows stand out lke star- Ing, inquisitive eyes. Frelburg’s cathedral was the first Gothie chureh of any size to be fully completed in Germany during the Mid- dle ages: It stands a little askew, like everything else in the town, in the wide Munsterplatz, or ‘Cathedral square. The enormous mass of na tive red sandstone surmounted by 2 single soaring spire of almost incred. fbly delicate filigree work, was start ed soon after the founding of the city and was more than 300 years in build- ing. “Architects, painters, woodlcarvers, sculptors, and masons came from every part of Burgpe to contribute to its beauty; and the tong. low-roofed. heay- Mg-beamed dwelling that housed the architects and master builders during {ts construction still remains. One of the altar pieces was painted by Hans Holbein the Younger. CHE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0.

The first thing that strikes you about the newer fashion is the conspicuous presence of wide brace- lets together with huge matching clips ‘or brooches, likewise earrings and other gadgets equally as decorative and chic, The fascinating thing about new Jewelry is that each type plays up perfectly to the individuality of the costume with which it is worn. So. characteristic 1s this modern Jewelry and so convincingly does It carry the message of having been de- signed to complement the right cos- tume af*the right time, one senses its mission at a glance. For instance, you do not have to be told that a massive bracelet of nuggety looking gold with @ huge matching clip will set your bright woolen daytime frock off to high point of distinction, You feel the same way in rezard to the swagger broad bracelets of green or some other color composition. In thelr modernistie angles and squares and sharp Unes they carry a sort of tallor-made look about them which makes you feel they will be in perfect complement with the sportsy crulse frocks, sweaters and suits which you are adding to your wardrobe. And when you are told that you can have these gomposition bracelets and pins monogrammed with monocratt’ Initials at the counter while you walt, your enthusiasm goes skyrocketing. You get a thrill, too, when your ad- miring gaze rests on displays of bracelets and companion pieces which have big oval-shaped colorful stones set in mountings of gold or silver. Im- mediately you begin to concoct in your mind a color scheme which will ‘work out stunningly with your latest FANCY MAY WANDER AMONG SOFT COLORS Coat woolens are mostly downy or hairy or satin finished or of very rough stuff. Dressy coats of velvet, stiff silk and quilted. taffeta and slipper satin, warmly Interlined and heavily trimmed with fur, are new in coat fashions, Velveteen coats are shown by Louiseboulanger and some of the others, ‘A coat by Augustabernard that has been imported to America is made of downy woolen. It is a straight coat with a turnover cloth collar and a Jacket body and puff sleeves of seal- skin, This Jacket body does not meet in front, but leaves a band of the cloth coat showing in the center. A cloth half belt ts placed at the waistline. “Stout Heart” Featured on Dresses for Spring A “stout heart” frock which one Paris designer evolved “to show the ‘owner Keeps her courage up in spite of hard times” is an outstanding -tea- ture of spring dresses.

It Is not only that women of grande dame mlen and dignity are enhancing their for- mal coiffures with coronets of gold and silver set with Jewels, for the fashion of topping one’s coiffed tresses with Jeweled headpleces prevails among the debutante set as well. ‘The youthful lady in the foreground of our ilustration Is wearing a tiara of rhinestones styled in the form of curled feathers, The rhinestone clips at the shoulders of her zinnia orange velvet dress are exactly alike, Her gorgeous glittering bracelets reiterate the Iden of duplicate or twin effects.
