untutored, humble and remote Negro cotton farmer in Mississippi who had the audacity and the faith to call him so persistently over the long distance telephone, our Chief Executive gave a dramatic and memorable illustration of the nearness of all the people of this far-flung nation to their representative in the White House. The significant aspect of this account is so the persistence of the anxious farmer the prompt understanding, sympathy and instantaneous action of the President.
In a great national emergency in which all the world is involved, the American people have endowed their chosen President with vast power. A dictator could hardly wish more. And this power he is using gallantly to the very best of his conscience, knowledge and wisdom for the capital purpose of safety and vital welfare of all humanity within the scope of federal authority. The candidate who was sharply criticized even by the leaders of his own political party for discussing "the forgotten man," is as President doing his level best to remember that very man. And our great President's best is incomparable. In this connection, we deem it by no means ill taste to remember these words, according to the Gospel that "I masmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

OSCAR DE PRIEST
SPANKS WARREN!
Because of His Restaurant Color Line in the U. S. House of Representatives. — Southern Whites" "Social Equality" with Members of the Race
Washington, D. C.—For about one-half hour, last week Wednesday, our only representative in the Congress, the Hon. Oscar De Priest of Chicago, talked very plainly to the members of the House about the disgraceful color-discrimination practiced in its restaurant and authorized by Representative Lindsey C. Warren (Dem) of North Carolina, chairman of the committee of the House. Members of the race have been barred from the dining
OSCAR OE
PRIEST
rooms by Warren's purely arbitrary ruling. Before intently-listening members, De Priest said: "I didn't instigate this fight, but so help me God I'm going to finish it." He recounted his efforts to obtain an investigation of Warren's authority to bar citizens from the restaurant, "has not even granted me the courtesy of a hearing" on my resolution for an investigation. De Priest had asked members to sign a petition to discharge the rules committee from further consideration of his resolution and thus bring it to a vote on the floor. He needed 145 signatures to insure this and received 147, among them being Congressman Chester C. Bolton, Martin L. Sweeney and Robert Crosser of Cleveland, Congressman-at-Large. Stephen M. Yoon, also of Cleveland, failed to sign. All of our voters in Ohio should know this. Pass the word along, as Young is a candidate for re-election this fall.
"If we allow segregation and the denial of constitutional rights under the very dome of the capitol," De Priest asked, "where, in God's name, shall we get them? If I allow this challenge to go, people will say Congress approves of denying one and equalification equal rights and opportunities."
Mr. De Priest read a letter which he had received from Representative George Terrell (Dem.), Texas, in which Mr. Terrell said he did not believe in "social equality" between the races. After the southern Democratic controlled house rang with applause the Chicagoan emphasized the fact that he was not arguing for social equality, but for "equally equal rights" of all citizens under the dome of capitol, where the laws of the nation are drawn," and closed with the following pertinent statement:
"When the 'Negroes' came to this country originally they were all black. They are not now, because some persons (both male and female) particularly in the south, have had a good deal of social equality—social equality not sought by 'Negroes' and not achieved by 'Negroes' forced upon them because of the adverse economic situation down there."
Defeat Metcalfe and Edwards.
Hamilton, Ont.—Glenn Cunningham, the Kansas distance runner, crashed the 1,000-yard record for Canadian runners when he defeated Phil Edwards, Afro-Canadian, in the Highlands' meet here, last week. Cunningham had a time of 2:12.2, which is only 1-5 of a second slower than the recognized record for the indoor mark set by Harold Cutbill. Bert Pearson, Hamilton schoolboy, defeated Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette U. speedster, twice, winning the 60-yard event in 6.5 and equaling the Canadian record for the 40-yard dash in 4.6.

DISCUSSED ABLY AND INTERESTINGLY BY DEAN KELLY MILLER OF HOWARD UNIVERSITY.
Wagner's Bill Leaves the "Negro" Out, He Says—The A. F. of L. Governed by Race Prejudice—How It Works.
Washington, D. C.—Senator Wagner is one of the best friends the Negro has in public life. His address in the Senate on the Parker nomination was by all odds the best forright defense which the Negro has received in public debate since Reconstruction. As further guarantee of the gentleness of the Wagner-Costigan law theuthority of the Wagner-Costigan Ant-Lynchning bill. In drafting his labor measure, Senator Wagner was chiefly concerned with the welfare of labor as a whole, without reference to any particular segment. The bill is indeed well calculated for the accomplishment of that purpose. It gives to organized labor the exclusive right of collective bargaining and control in all issues arising between labor and apportionment of the work hour and thought-out scheme if only all labor was white! But unfortunately, the Negro colors and complicates every equation into which he enters. He is a laboring man, par excellence. There should be no schism in the ranks of the labor world. Whatever militant labor is able to wrench from unwilling capital resources to the labor of the Negro in the black alike. This is the simple dictate of logic. But race prejudice does not follow the formulas of logic. Organized labor has been the persistent enemy of the Negro ever since the collapse of the Knights of Labor under T. V. Powderly. Its successor, the American Federation of Labor, operates on the exclusive principle. It is the aristocrat of the labor of the Negro. In the Negro except after a sinister fashion. Some twenty of the great unions do not admit Negroes at all. Some admit him to his own racial unions in which he is circumscribed to such fields and spheres of work as the race has already found to do, such as miners in the South and stevedores on the dock. Wherever he is admitted to mixed unions, it is mainly a gesture which opens the door of opportunity to his hopes, slams in his dreams and works his job. They do not allow him to work unless he is qualified according to the union test, and will not allow him to qualify under their code. He is thus left outside of the pale. The
Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart Visits Atlanta University to Study Its Library
Atlanta, Ga.,—Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart of Harvard University who, as chairman of the building committee of Howard University's board of trustees, is in charge of the university's new library development, visited Atlanta University, last week, to study the construction and organization of its library. During his day's visit here, he addressed the faculties of Atlanta University. Morehouse and Cornell colleges and associate students. He told of his lifelong interest in the problems of slavery and reconstruction. His first association with them was with the working of the "underground railway" in southern Ohio, where both his father and his aunt were actively engaged in the work of assisting escaped slaves to pass through Canada and to safety. Prof. Hart one of the most historic known of American historians, being the author or editor of more than forty volumes or series on U.S. history. He was a member of the faculty of Harvard University for 43 years and is now a professor emeritus of that institution. He has served as president of both the American Historical Association and the American Political Science Association. His most outstanding recent personal service was his work as his historian for the Commission on the Celebration of the 200th Anniversary of the Birth of George Washington. On July 1 of this year, Doctor Hart will celebrate his eighteenth birthday.
News Attacked Again.
Berlin, Germany.—A violent anti-Semitic demonstration by Nazi storm troops at Gunzenhausen, in Bavaria, was reported, Wednesday, to have resulted in dead Jews—one committing suicide by hanging and the other dying from four knife wounds. It was reported that villages of Upper Franconia, Bavaria, were stopping merchant carts at the entrances to the towns, determining whether the merchants are Jewish before permitting them to pass.

Negro workman has no chance in the textile industries above the level of a cleaner, watchman or janitor. In the transportation industry he is suppressed to the bottom ranks of a manual and menial toll. He is ineligible to membership in the several professional bodies. These are but typical of the spirit and purpose of trades unionism. As industry becomes regimented under the N. R. A., if the Wagner bill, unamended, its has its way, the Negro will be left out in the cold. The Negro has perhaps a better chance in the Ford factories than in any other large scale industry. Mr. Ford insists upon hiring his men on the basis of their merit without regard to the quality of the dedication of the unions. The day the N. R. A. assumes control of the labor side of the Ford factories, the Negro will be shown the door.
The places which the race now holds in the higher levels of skill in the industries throut the country have been accorded by capital against the persistent protest of office workers. These workers allow the Negro workers work times of peace and strenuously object to them supplanting themselves as strike-breakers. But capital has utilized the marginal Negro workers to resist the extravagant demands of white workmen. It is in this wise that the Negro has gained his foothold and is maintained in his place by the labor support of the tender mercile of labor unions the Negro would find himself in the other industries about where he is in the textile industry and in railroad field. In every issue between capital and labor, the Negro finds that his bread is buttered on the side of capital.
Violent issues are now raging in the N. R. A., especially in the railroad and the automotive fields. The Negro is not directly involved in the woodville.
In the meantime every effort should be made to amend the Wagner bill so as to safeguard the rights of the Negro in the premiere stage it is easy to foretell the doom of the Negro in American industry.

President Roosevelt sure has a wonderful wife, and in this day and time. Her recent trip thru the West Indies makes this perfectly clear. You simply have to take off your hat to her.

It is entirely too much for our people to expect a person to hold a political position and then function properly as a real leader (of the race) in local, state or national affairs. The political job is never given for the purpose of promoting such leadership.

A YEAR OF THE NEW DEAL
What has a year of The New Deal brought to the 13,000,00 Afro-Americans of the United States? Separate labor codes that give to workers of the race wages lower than those authorized for white workers. A sharp increase in lynchings and no federal action against the growing terror. The Scottsboro boys, as innocent of the crime charged against them as is the attorney-general who prosecutes and persecutes them, have spent their third year in prison. The New Deal has not yet reached them. In Washington, at the very seat of government, the U. S. House of Representatives restaurant is closed to men and women, Americans, whose skins are dark. Prostitutes and gunmen, if their skins are white, will be received with open arms in the future as in the past. In Ohio a reactionary decision by the supreme court in the Doris Weaver case, and one member of the court responsible for that decision is honored by President Roosevelt with a promotion to the federal bench. Such is The New Deal. Three more years of its wonderful gifts and 13,000,000 Afro-Americans will be reduced almost to slavery. Seven more years and they will be where? Intelligent organizing and intelligent fighting must be the order of the day, Du Bois to the contrary, notwithstanding.
"NEGRO" DEMOCRATS!
"Negro" Democrats here in Cleveland and elsewhere in the state of Ohio should not fail to notice the stand of the southern and northern Democrats in Congress just at this time on the matter of according our people the simplest of American rights in the U. S. Senate cafe and the U. S. House of Representatives restaurant. Southern Democracy is in control of the Congress and as Congressman Oscar De Priest well said, last week, are not only grossly insulting our people but denying them the free use of their citizen rights "under the very dome of the capitol." Lord, have mercy! It is bad enough in the southland, but when southern "crackers" carry it into the capital of the nation and right "under the very dome of the capitol," the Lord knows it is infinitely worse. Bad as the Republican party may be (from the "Negro" Democratic viewpoint or standpoint) it would never dare do such a thing. The chairman of the House committee in charge of its restaurant is a North Carolina "cracker" who openly boasted, several weeks ago, that no "Negro" would eat in that restaurant as long as he was in charge of it. Oscar De Priest is trying to move him, something that ought to be done pronto, of course. See that your member of Congress supports De Priest in this effort to lift the "cracker"*s* ban, and if he fails to do so, organize our people in your congressional district against him immediately, whether he is a Republican or a Democrat. We here now notify all of our people of the state
that Congressman-at-Large Stephen M. Young (Dem.), who resides here in Cleveland, is guilty of failing to align himself with Congressman Oscar De Priest in this effort to unhorse the North Carolina "cracker," while Congressmen Chester C. Bolton, Martin L. Sweeney and Robert Crosser, all of Cleveland, did so promptly, and Sweeney and Crosser are Democrats.

DU BOIS WEAKENS AND FALLS.
Editor Wm. Du Bois of the Crisis magazine should be deposed immediately by the N. A. A. C. P. His services as such are no longer wanted by loyal, sane and sensible members of the race. When he asked, in a recent speech in Chicago, "why fight segregation?" he voluntarily joined the ranks of the "jim-crow Negroes" and closed an exceptionally active career, as a leader, of years' standing. His recent trips thru the South undoubtedly thoroly discouraged him and caused him to make clear the fact that he was not so much MAN as people generally that him to be. We confess some surprise.
During the World War, when President Thomas Woodrow Wilson thru his special assistant secretary of war, Dr. Emmett J. Scott of Howard University, called a conference at Washington of leading members of the race, largely editors, Du Bois was among the number. He was secretary of its committee on resolutions. When these were read to the conference, they were found to contain a "joker," which Du Bois admitted the authorship of, that would have ruined if not eliminated them. This in the opinion of leading members of the conference. Of course, the "joker" was promptly voted out. No one seemed to understand why Editor Du Bois had inserted it until several weeks after the conference when it developed that he was a candidate for an appointment in the intelligence department of the U. S. Army, located in Washington. D. C., in which Major J. E. Springarm was an official. The joker," in our judgment, was simply an effort to curry favor with President Wilson and thus enhance his chances for the appointment referred to. It also developed that Du Bois, in case of his securing said appointment, was endeavoring to arrange to continue as editor of the Crisis and thus be in a position to draw two salaries—one from the magazine and one from the government. If memory serves us correctly, Rev. Dr. Grimke of Washington or his brother, the Hon. A. H. Grimke, as head of the N. A. A. C. P. of Washington, D. C., or the District of Columbia, was the leader of those who were opposed to Du Bois' drawing two salaries. He never received the appointment.
"Why fight segregation?" Because we still have some self and race respect and manhood. No one but a member of the race lacking these three essentials, and much more, could possibly do otherwise than "fight segregation." Whether there is any "relief in sight" or not has absolutely nothing to do with the matter. Only a cowardly and selfish "Negro" will ever quietly submit to the "jim-crow" system in this or any other country.
WILL ROGERS SORRY
That He Unfortunately Insulted Our People in His Radio Broadcast, Some Weeks Ago.
New York City—Will Rogers, humorist, in a letter to Chr. Channing H. Tobias, a national "Y" secretary, has asked the leader to get our newspapers to express his regret that he unfortunately insulted them, some weeks ago, and caused many of them to feel that he is unfriendly to the race. Following are excerpts from Rogers' letter to Mr. Tobias:
"I reverted to the word that I had used since childhood down home with never a thought of disrespect."
"I was wrong, but it is the intention and not the wording you must look for."
"I worked with Bert Williams. He was the greatest comedian the stage has had in my time."
A beloved pouncher taught me how toope.
"You must use tolerance toward millions of fine white people who use the word but who at heart are really friends."

Event at Netherland Plaza
Cincinnati, O.—For the first time in

event on the school's social calendar.
Four of six couples were present at

decision, however. One was Chester

President Roosevelt's effort to crush the depression will prove only "an heroic gesture" unless Henry George's single tax proposal is adopted, Peter Witt, ardent single taxer, predicted, Sunday afternoon, at St. James's forum. "Within the next 25 years we'll see the worst deprivation," he even more firmly entrenched, if the government hesitates to decree that taxes be placed only on the unearned increment of land." Witt said.
THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, MARCH 31, 1934.
The
ROUNDER
Several of our leading young attorneys are fathering a movement to circulate petitions for the signatures of all those who are desirous of a change in the control of the Portland-Outwaithe center. These petitions will be presented to the mayor just as soon as he succeeds in claring that the city's attorney has control of the city of Cleveland, which The Rounder thinks will be soon now. It is their purpose to secure 10,000 signatures.
In the face of the fact that doped meat was found in the A. & P. store, corner E. 85th St. and Quincy ave., by health inspectors who caused the manager's arrest and punishment in police court, last Friday week, just look in that store Saturday evening between 7 and 10 P. M. and see it crowded with "Negro" patrons. This fact can be more fully appreciated when it is recalled that the A. & P. chain grocery store company refused to employ "Negroes" in their stores, particularly the one at 8501 Quincy Ave. Yes, "Negroes" are a great (?) people.
Just as The Rounder has felt ever since the slum clearance project was announced, the real estate companies and others, who took options on property in the Cedar-Central section, are holding up representatives of the government for every dollar they can get. Of course, they will not pay the property-owners any more than the sum stipulated when the options were signed. We warned them to hang on, being peatedly since, long ago, to sign options and to hold on to their property until they are given a "fair and reasonable" sum for it by duly authorized representatives of the government.
Several (each) of our younger and older voters of Ward 12 are bent on the organization of a live, active Republican club. They have been discussing the matter for several weeks and are now about ready to proceed with the cherished dream—something long and greatly needed in that ballwick. The failure of our people of that ward to get more and decidedly better representation in the way of jobs and positions can be attained more to their lack of organization. Hence this one thing. Heretofore, practically all of the good jobs have gone to persons of other nationality groups or races in the face of the fact that Ward 12's Republican vote is about 90 per cent Afro-American. The organization of a good club will go a long way toward rectifying this incongruous political condition.
Nobody seemed to pay any attention to Councilman Bundy's proposal at Monday's Council meeting to give city employees half their pay in cash and scrip, and the other half "in moral obligation certificates," which would have no legal standing. However, the proposal gave Bundy a chance to talk. It wouldn't be a bad case if the Afro-American councilman colleague to do his talking to Director Wm. J. Rogers of the city's utilities department and get him to open the "illy-white" municipal light plant to some of our voters in dire need of employment. Our readers will recall that a few weeks ago Bundy was railing against the municipal light plant because no member of the race was given employment in it. And, too, he is chairman of the Council which has certain supervision over the municipal light plant.

Washington, D. C., March 24, 1934.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
My dear' Mr. Smith:—You can't remember me, but some years ago I was a cub correspondent for your paper from Chicago. Your letter of the 22nd to Congressman De Priest received in his absence. In answer to your query, please be advised that all the gentlemen except Stephen M. Young signed Mr. De Priest's petition. There were 147 signatures, or two more than the necessary 145, and these extra two were not listed. Conventional Record of yesterday. Thanking you for your interest, I am. Very truly yours, Morris Lewis, Secretary.

Exploring Little America!
LITTLE AMERICA,ANTARTICA
March 6: (via Mackay Radio)
Of course, we are all explorers on this Expedition. But I've done some personal exploring recently that gave me a big kick. I have explored Little America! Perhaps my bump of inquisitiveness is bigger than that of the other fellows because I am not yet over the thrill of studying the details of this thy village and a lot of huts under the snow and ice for four years, which was hastily abandoned in the rush to get aboard the home-going steamer on February 19, 1930
Admiral Byrd's previous Expedi
here in less than a day and everywhere there is evidence of their hasty departure. In the bats and mess hall we found articles of clothing thrown about. Many of the things in the William Bowin men's lockers had been emptied onto the floor. The little shelves all over the place still held razors and various other toilet articles in one but I found a half finished letter on a desk. Most miraculous of all, to me was the finding of the old food cache with a great supply of food stuffs, cooking utensils, sugar, salt, pepper and a thousand other things all in perfect condition so that they can be added to our present supplies
In Little America we have more than a mile of tunnels buried deep under snow and ice. In planning this strange village, Admiral Byrd placed the buildings 200 yards apart for two good reasons. For many days at a time during the terrific Antarctic winter, it is impossible for anybody to get outdoors at all Under such circumstances, without exercise, the muscles get flabby and the mind becomes dull and quarrelsome. Therefore in adopting these long tunnels Admiral Byrd was providing his men with vital fire protection and with much needed exercise it has worked out perfectly Up to now, however, on this Expedition, exercise has been our middle name We shall be working our heads off for a number of weeks yet.
We found some of the tunnels had caved in. We are gradually excavating these, repairing them and salvaging the material we find in them. It took us four days to locate the oil gasoline and oil tunnel which, lined with drums of gasoline and cans of oil, leads to the main supply of these materials. We found it finally with all its supplies and pumps in good condition and 38 big orange colored drums of gasoline, lubricating oil and kerosene.
"Bargain" Merchandise Doomed By Increasing Insistence on Quality
A new set of buying standards has been set up by the American public as a result of the last few years.
Today more time and thought are devoted to buying than ever before. Buyers ask themselves a totally new set of questions when contemplating a purchase. Instead of merely asking "Can I buy this article for less money elsewhere?" a whole flood of questions now enters the mind of the prospective purchaser. "Do I know that this article is of high quality? Will it give good service? What is it really worth to me? Would I rather have it than something else? Is the price fair for the quality I am getting?" There are numerous other questions, conscious or sub-conscious, that arise with each individual purchase.

You know, not only our fuel and oil containers are painted this peculiar reddish-orange color, but almost everything else we have, including our buildings, our tents, our trail flags and everything else. There is a scientific reason for this. In this South Polar region, the visibility is most deceiving. A small pile of snow looks like a mountain and depressions and mounds are not seen until you stumble over them. With the entire panorama one monotonous white scene, however, a brilliant color is visible a long way off. The finest signal experts in the country were consulted by the company which supplied the gasoline and oil for this and Admiral Byrd's previous expedition. Through a long series of tests, they found that a slightly red orange is the most visible color at a distance. In order to break this color into sharp relief special stencils were prepared which read "Byrd Antarctic Expedition."
When we first arrived here a few weeks ago we found the telephone system and the electric lights still working through the energy still remaining in the storage batteries, even after a four year rest. This was used up quickly however, and since then we have expended 500 gallons of gasoline and kerosene in our pressure lanters, torches and other lighting paraphernalia because our electric generator plant is not yet operating
I'll never forget my first visit to the mess shack and bunk house. On the table was a half-finished meal with a big roast beef frozen solid, with a fork sticking in. The cook said it was still good to eat. Maybe so, but I hope he doesn't try to prove it on me From the old food cache he dragged out some whale meat, bacon and seal meat and cooked up a stew which George Noville and some of the other fellows wrote on their word of honor was delicious I was sorry I could not agree with them Over almost every bunk was a 1929 calendar with all the days crossed out. I was with Finn Ronne, when he found the bunk of his father, Martin Ronne, who came here with Amundsen in 1911 and was with Byrd in 1929, when he was 68 years old. He died in 1933 Over the bunk the old Norwegian had printed in pencil the name of his son, Finn Ronne, who is now occupying it.

cheap and unsatisfactory merchandise, whose sole selling point was in price appeal. Forward-looking manufacturing concerns fully realize that to hold business, in such times as these, it is necessary not only to maintain quality but to bring prices within reach of present-day incomes. This realization has made possible real values—combinations of high quality and fair price—in practically every line of merchandise. This trend, in the field of household commodities is exemplary Ivory soap, which today is selling at the lowest price in seventeen years. While this is but one isolated example, it is typical of the real values obtainable in other fields.
Products of known quality are available today at the lowest prices in years due, largely, to public insistence on high quality and a fair price. The new trend to quality is a sound one and is believed by many to be a heartening sign for the future of American business.

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 and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies 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 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, barber-shop, public conveyance by land, 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, or 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 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 own. We will not use it as often as they should, he even says to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.
WEIGHT IN GOLD!"
Cleveland, O., Aug. 15, 1932.
Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor, Gazette.
Dear Friend: I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold!
I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and, if possible, smite it. You and I have frequently, during the fifty years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but, when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, thru half a century, has his race foremost in his life, struts, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and "The Old Reliable" Gazette.
Yours for the right,
John P. Green.
(Former Member, Ohio State
Senate.)

ASSASSIN
A Drinker of Hashish!
In eleventh-century Persia, a secret order was founded by Hassan ben Sabbah, indulging in the use of the Oriental drug hashish, and, when under its influence, in the practice of secret murder. The murderous drinker of hashish came to be called bashab in the Arabic and from that origin comes our English word assasin!

Indianapolis, Ind. — Butler University athletic authorities were notified, last week, that an injured tendon had forced Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette U.'s ace spinner, to withdraw from competition in the Butler indoor relays here, last Saturday.
Owens Will Be in the Relays.
Mansfield, O. — Jess Owens of Cleveland, dash and broad jump star, will be in a race at the eighth annual relays here, April 21. He will be in the specially-sanctioned 100-meter dash, the event for which he is the national outstanding candidate in the next Olympics.
Le Buns to Play Former Stars.
The Le Bun Imperialis, Class A champions of the Municipal league, started a big week, Monday night, by meeting a group of former South High star cagers in the feature game of a carnival at the Immaculate Heart gym, 6700 Lansing Ave. Monday night they are booked to play the Clifford All Stars in a program at the public hall.
Indianapolis, Ind—Willis Ward, our Michigan ace, nosed out Hall (white) of the University of Kansas in the 60-yard dash, equaling the accepted world's record of 6.2 seconds, in the featured event of the Butler University indoor relays, here last Saturday night. He got a doubled over in the high jump and setting a new relays record of 6 feet 5% inches.
Owens and Central High Win.
An heroic little band of our boys, wearing the faded colors of old Central High -red and blue -revived memories of the days when the ancient school ruled athletics in Cleveland, by winning the annual school track meet at Public Hall, at Saturday night. It was the greatest upset in the eleven-year history of the board carnival. Central ran up $27 \frac{1}{2}$ points in the Class A metropolitan division, ending East Tech's one-year reign. Another youth of the race, one who has made his name respected in sports nationally, Jesse Owens, provided the star individual event of the night. A perfect example of flawless speed, Owens ran the 50-yard dash in 5.2 seconds for a new A. A. U. record. That not only tied his own high school standard which he established only last year, but beat the old A. A. U. time by two-tenths of a second (Boman Lennard). Ohio Westen has nash and now racing for the hold of A. A. U. record, was second to Jesse. He never had a chance; neither did the others, Jesse, off like an electric flash, won going away. At that, he might have been credited with world-record speed had the officials been a little more careful. Only four timers clocked him, instead of the usual five. Two read their watches at 5.1 seconds, the others at 5.2, which was taken as official. Owens raced early and the balance of the show, viewed by some 4,500 spectators, was tame. Osborn Robinson, another youth of the race of Thomas Edison Junior High, won the 50-yard dash of the Class B division in a stirring finish, defeating Stoneman of Chagrin Falls, second, and Bardfield, Fairview, third, both white.

Cotton Facts
A 3-000-Bale Shipment of Alabama Cotton.
Prepared by National Geographic Society. Washington, D. C.-WND Services.
TO DATE the federal government has rented in Alabama alone, in the cotton reduction campaign, 1,138,457 acres, representing a portion of the holdings of 100,000 land owners who have signed contracts with the government to eliminate the acreage from cotton production.
Cotton prices, cotton surpluses, cotton production, consumption and export figures, and new uses of cotton keep America's best known fiber constantly in the public eye.
Why the great public interest in cotton?
Because about one-tenth of the population of the United States, and many more millions of people on every continent, depend upon cotton for a livelihood and, because it is indispensable to modern civilization.
players; at the movie pictures projected for films; tennis players shoes; on golf links every green; and at the cotton-covered bags of the diamond.
Cotton bagging for taking the place of a slight extent in some cotton belt; builders are covering "green" ton fabric instead of builders use cotton finers and chemists filter cloth; and cotton are popular in the binationery industry.
One who holds in of light, fuzzy cotton fecuit to realize that 1000 such handwls
Go where you will, by any means of transportation in the civilized world, and cotton will be your traveling companion. Step into an automobile and you are supported by tires containing cotton fabric. You sit on upright chairs, and you press the cotton thread, and are protected by a top to, which cotton, coated.
Or go yachting. Your ship, no doubt, will be equipped with cotton awnings, hatch covers and "linens." Or try to evade the fiber by climbing into an airplane. You will discover that cotton fabric covers the airplane wings and that cotton dissolved in chemicals is the "dope" that protects the wings from wind and weather. The engineers of our railroad trains wear cotton overalls, and the window shades and seat covers of modern passenger cars once were a part of the snow-white landscape of a cotton field. Even old Dobbin still wears a cotton-lined collar, and the buggy he occasionally draws may have a cotton top and bits of imitation leather here and there that cotton helped produce.
Cotton Used Everywhere.
Cotton Used Everywhere.
Stroll down "Main Street" of a modern town and cotton in many forms strolls with you. You pass men who wear cotton from their hatsbands to the linings of their shoes. In white, black and all the colors of the rainbow, you observe cotton ties, hose, shirts, suits, collars, uniforms, overcoats, and shoe laces. The feminine companions of the cotton-clad men wear hats and dresses, and carry umbrellas of cotton.
A glance at thousands of bolts of cloth on department store shelves reveals that between the time cotton leaves the plantation and reaches the retailer, it assumes many disguises. For instance, if you purchase calico, cretonne, corduroy, or chintz, you are buying cotton. And the same goes for a long list of textiles from apron cloth, batiste and cambric through the alphabet to velveteen and volle.
In a typical American home, cotton has earned the right to be called king of textiles. Step over the threshold and your foot may alight on a cotton rug; pictures hang on walls covered with cotton cloth; you relax in a chair upholstered with cotton and listen to a phonograph record which contains cotton, playing a recent "blues" song inspired by life in the Southern cotton belt. Within eye-shot are cotton draperies, window shades, sofa cushions, and chair and table covers.
In the dining room perhaps the table "linen" is cotton or part cotton; and cotton wicks protrude from artistically designed candles. In the kitchen one may discover a cotton bag for crushing ice, a cotton mop, cotton wiping clothes; and perhaps cotton had some part in the manufacture of the linoleum on the floor and the oilcloth on the table. Open the pantry door and again you find cotton. One of the newest methods of packing small quantities of oranges, potatoes, and onions is by the use of coarse mesh cotton bags. Of course the housewife long has bought sugar, salt and flour in cotton bags, as well as cheese with cotton covering.
Perhaps the bedrooms contain more cotton than any other room in the home. Cotton sheets, pillow cases, quilts, and blankets for beds are widely used, when in men's and women's wardrobes are handkerchiefs, underwear, night clothes, lounge and bath robes, and house slippers of cotton. In the bathroom hang cotton towels and wash cloths, and a cotton shower curtain, and in the medicine cabinet is fuzzy cotton itself as well as bandage gauze. On the bathing beach cotton bathing suits and shoes are seen; at boxing matches boxes swing cotton-padded gloves; at football games, cotton-lined shoulder pads protect the
players; at the movies spectators view pictures projected from cotton-made films; tennis players wear cotton shoes; on golf links cotton flags fly on every green; and at the baseball park, cotton-covered bags mark three bases of the diamond.
Cotton bagging for cotton bales is taking the place of jute bagging to a slight extent in some parts of the cotton belt; builders of cement roads are covering "green" cement with cotton fabric instead of burlap; engine builders use cotton packing; oil refiners and chemists employ cotton filter cloth; and cotton conveyor belts are popular in the baking and confectionery industry.
One who holds in his hand a pound of light, fluffy cotton, will find it difficult to realize that about 12,000,000 such handbells were produced on the world's cotton plantations last year. Pressed into so-called farmer's bales, these handbells would make about 24,000,000 bales. Lailed in contact on the ground like gigantic bricks, they would make a solid cotton "highway" two-and-one-fourth feet thick and nearly twenty-eight feet wide from Boston to Los Angeles. More than one-half of the highway would be built of American cotton, produced in our Southern states, and New Mexico, Arizona and California. Indian cotton would build about one-sixth of such a highway. China cotton about one-ninth, Russian cotton about one-twelfth, and farms of Egypt, Brazil, Uganda, and many minor producing regions of the world would furnish the remainder.
Used in Prehistoric Times.
Your guess as to where and when cotton originated is, perhaps, as good as that of anyone else. Museums display cotton fabrics used in prehistoric times. Long before the Christian era the cotton fiber was popular among weavers and wearers.
A book written about 800 B.C. referred to Romans made it popular in Europe. Columbus noted that cotton grew abundantly in the West Indies, and other famous Spanish and Portuguese explorers found it growing and in use in Mexico, Peru, Brazil and India. In Mexico it was the chief material used for making clothing when the Spaniards arrived.
More than forty million acres, or an area nearly as large as Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Connecticut, combined, produces American cotton. The seeds are planted in rows three to four feet apart. When the plants are several inches tall the rows are hoed by hand, and healthy plants 12 to 18 inches apart are left to develop. At maturity the plants are virtually sturdy trees three to four feet high. The cotton flower is snow-white when the bur bursts. Later it changes through pink to red. The red petals fall, leaving at their base a little green boll slightly larger than a pea. The boll slowly swells to nearly the size of a golf ball. Then it ripens, bursts open, and in a day or two becomes a mass of fluffy white cotton, ready to pick. Practically all cotton is picked by hand but experiments are constantly being carried out to develop machinery to perform this work.
Seed Now a Valuable Product.
About two-thirds of the weight of cotton direct from the fields is seed and the remainder lint or fiber. The latter adheres doggedly to the seed.
To separate them, the raw cotton must pass through a "gin" (derived from "engine"). The seeds drop into a chute which carries them to a seed room; the lint is taken by belt conveyers to presses where it is squeezed into bales weighing approximately 500 pounds. Covered with cotton or jute baggage, the bales then move to the cotton mills or into world commerce.
Cotton seed was waste of the industry until after the Civil war. It was burned, thrown aside to rot, or shoveled into rivers. This former waste material now is worth about $200,000,000 annually. The seeds are "ginned" again so that the tiny adhering bits of cotton or "linters" are removed. Cotton seed meal makes cattle food, fertilizer and flour, and meat substitutes for human consumption. Cotton seed oil is used in shortening and an ingredient of some soaps, cosmetics, artificial leathers, oilcloths, rooting, butter substitutes, candles and waxes. It also is burned in miners' lamps and used by packers of fruits, olives, sardines and vegetables.
From linters are made bakelite for radio panels, non-shatterable glass, rayon for dress goods, stockings and underwear, and a long list of other products that chemistry has given to world commerce in recent years.

RAYON SATIN LEADS IN HATS FOR SPRING
Other Favorites Are Jersey,
Cellophane and Straw.
Spring models in millinery feature rayon satin, Jersey, cellophane, rough straw and paper panama. Closely straw also is very much in evidence, as well as rayon straws and laizes, among which visca has first place. Exotic straws are in favor, as well as rayon grograin ribbon and heavy rayon ribbed Ottoman, which forms very smart models. Lewis sponsors rayon satin, very bright and heavy, with which he makes little toques enlivened and heightened on top of the crown by a touch of pink paradise plumes. He uses a special fabric made of cellophane with a jersey background in diagonal effect, which is extremely smart for little toques and berets for informal wear. Le Monnier has paper panamas in black and very rough straws made of cellophane. Rose Valois sponsors rayon Ottoman ribbons and fancy rayon straws.
Blanchot combines bright vivid red satin with lacquered surface and white felt, on which the turnup brim, slashed in front, shows the red underneath. Her evening hats are often in thick rayon satin twisted with lame, either in gold or silver, and often combined with a touch of colors to harmonize with the shade of the dress.
RUSSIAN INFLUENCE
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Fashions for spring and summer 1834 are going Russian. For that matter they are also going Mexican and Chinese, Persian, too, if you please. Which means what with gay Mexican stripes and gorgeous Chinese colorings and Persian prints of rich tone and Russian tiaras together with picturesque tunices done in vivid peasant stitchery we have ahead of us a very exciting and colorful season. A delightsome adaptation of the Russian to American fashions is the white cannon crepe tunic blouse in the picture. It is worn over a black drop skirt. The colorful embroidery is in festive accord with the spring. The black straw hat is also a la Russian. It is one of the smart coronet types, off-the-face effects being the newest thing.
FLASHES FROM PARIS
Chic Parisiennes are wearing cellophane belts.
Borea is using clips and buttons of real seashells.
Mid-calf length is advocated for daytime costumes.
Shisaparell designs frothy tulle capes for evening.
Nearly every costume has gloves related or matched.
Sports clothes adopt fastenings of wood, pewter or leather.
Worth employs pure silks of Persian and Egyptian patternings.
Latest in Headgear Is
Intriguing Domino Hat
Suzy White's "domino" hat gets a Nobel prize in the field of headgear science. It is made of inch-square checks of black gaillac and antelope and is trimmed with a tantalizing tall-feather perched squarely at the tip. Soft and plurable, the fur and antelope fit the form of the head at the back and the affair looks as if it might have been cut out of a checkerboard and in a triangular shape, the point of which touches the nape of the neck. There is a dole in the top like the crater of a volcano out of which the feather suddenly erupts.
New Hat Trimmings
Tiny fruit clusters are the latest in trimming for spring hats. These are frequently placed at the back, as are bows, flower clusters and other trimming.
NEW SPRING STYLES
STRESS CRISPNESS
Necklines Are Accentuated by Flower-Like Collars.
Spring is setting about in a pleasingly determined way to see that we have a crisp look during the season. Many of the new necklines are accentuated by flower-like collars; any winter dress or last year's spring number can be freshened up with one of the perky bows placed under the chin line.
For the most dressy, spring is sponsoring neckline and cuff touches of plain organdie, embroidered with embroidery and lace. Deep cuffs are a nice trimming detail.
A new plique which is often "worked" to give a real newness is one of the prime mediums for this spring idea of white accents.
Crepes with a dull finish, giving a look of a lightweight wool, are being heralded both for their interesting fabric tone and for their marvelous new colors, practically all pastels.
They are being shown in the new silhouette with slender lines stressed, a slightly flared line and pleated details being among the features.
!
There's movement in the new silhouettes. Which is what is meant by the "wind-blowen" and "wind-swept" fashions of which we are hearing so much this season. The idea was launched by Schiaparelli, but so widespread has become the appeal it is about all one hears these days in regard to what's what in styledom. The stiff breeze that whips all clothes into newest fashion this season, blows forward by day and eyes backward by night. Which being interpreted means that daytime clothes have their fullness blown toward the front, while evening gowns have their fullness swept toward the back. Schiaparelli who first released the winds in fashion's realm, tempers them somewhat in this evening gown of pale bluish gray smoke-colored satin via a jutting abbreviated panel at the back and a train which is artfully rounded and gored. The decolletage is conservative and the sleeves are of medieval inspiration.
STYLE NOTES
Buttoned-on trimmlings are smart.
Comes now crinkled washable velvet.
Daytime skirts are straight with kick pleats.
There's a large amount of summer fur being used.
Thin wool prints are a leading theme in the fabric realm. The fashion picture includes an endless array of sheer white neckwear. Newest in coats is the wrap-around sort minus buttons or buckle fastening.
Spangles and Beads Index
to Mood of New Fashions
Spangles and beads are an index to the mood of this season's fashions—dazzling and dramatic with a basic appreciation for simple lines. Whether it is paillettes, bugles or tiny beads, the special formula of this season—all-over surface covering without any design picked out—does the trick that makes them just right. Bodices or jackets or "solid" paillettes in black or brilliant, red, blue or green, are nothing short of stunning; entire dresses, especially with sleeves, of all over cut beads, are liked even by women who have never got over their prejudice against beaded clothes.
Rhinestone bandeaes are favored, long earrings of rhinestones or diamonds, the customary sets of bracelets in diamonds, possibly introducing a bit more color in cabochon "emerald" or "ruby" accents this year than last.
Slate Tones Effective
State tones will have an important place in the new collections, from the very subdued tones with a touch of deep gray to the soft, light varieties with a delicate tint of mauve.
THE Camirror
ICY MOUNTAINS, CORAL STRANDS—or words to that effect. Lois Bennett, in the snow suit, and Rosaline Greene, of Captain Henry's Maxwell House Show Boat, have their pictures taken on the same day. Miss Bennett lives on Cape Cod. Miss Greene was in Miami.

Ohio Employs Swift Communication To Block Escape of Highway Thugs
NETWORK EXTENDS TO EVERY COUNTY
NETWORK EXTENDS TO EVERY COUNTY
Citizens Urged to Telephone Nearest Police Outpost in Emergency
Ohio is meeting the challenge of highway bandits and motorized thugs who rely upon speed for their escape.
During the past few months law enforcement agencies have brought into use swift communication and transportation facilities in every county of the state to combat criminals with the same weapons of modern science that the underworld employs to defy the law.
The new State Highway Patrol placed 60 motorcycle-mounted patrolmen on the highways of the state in November of last year. On February 23, the Buckeye State Sheriffs' Association formally dedicated at Findlay its new radio transmitting station, WPGG, over which crime reports are broadcast to law officers in 26 northwestern Ohio counties.
Both of these new law enforcement agencies have the same purpose—to block escape of motorized bandits. Through the rapid exchange of crime information and swift dispatch of reports, blockades can be established around fleeing criminals a few minutes after crimes are committed.
Swift communication to headquarters of both systems is assured by plans worked out by police and officials of the Ohio Bell Telephone Company and other telephone companies. Full resources of the state's telephone system are brought into use to aid rapid reporting of crimes. The State Highway Patrol has established district and outpost stations in 24 cities scattered throughout the state, and each is equipped to receive reports of crimes and quickly send assistance.
Patrol officials urge citizens to telephone the nearest patrol station as quickly as possible in case of emergency. These stations are at Perrysburg, Defiance, Findlay, Bellevue, Ravenna, Medina, Salem, Geneva, Sidney, Middletown, Lima.

Calls to patrol stations bring service ranging from the supplying of pertinent information and acting as patrol escorts on special occasions to investigating accidents and crimes.
Calls Given Precedence
A similar arrangement is in operation for reports to offices included in the state sheriffs' radio hookup. In emergencies, especially in matters of a criminal nature, a call should be put in immediately to the office of the sheriff of the county in which it occurs, in addition to notifying the local police authorities, citizens are advised.
The operator should be told that
the call to the sheriff's office is an emergency so that she can complete it quickly ahead of routine calls that might be waiting. The sheriff office, in turn, will relay the information to station WPGG at Findlay, and within a few minutes a report of the crime will be broadcast throughout the territory served by the station.
Police and sheriffs' automobiles are equipped to receive such reports and will speed to the scene of the crime upon receipt of the information. Counties participating in the sheriffs' system are Williams, Deance, Paulding, Van Wert, Mercee Fulton, Henry, Putnam, Allen Auglaize, Lucas, Wood, Hancock Hardin, Ottawa, Sandusky, Senece Wyandot, Crawford, Erie, Huron Richland, Ashland, Marion, Morrow and Knox.
