Branch Double-Crossed by Its N ational Headquarters in Its Opposition to the Confirmation of Judge Florence Allen? Who wrecked the N. A. A. C. P. fight against the nomination and appointment of Judge Florence Allen to the federal bench at Cincinnati? Ohio members of that organization now show the whole story, and the national office must furnish the information. What did the national office mean by telegraphing to Miss Pearl Mitchell, president of the Cleveland branch, that there would be a protest made against the confirmation of Miss Allen but that there were "complications"? What political tricks were employed by Miss Susan Rebhan, local manager and friend of Miss Allen, to wreck the N. A. A. C. P. fight? Why did not Senators Wagner and Capper, the latter a vice president of the N. A. A. C. P., and the former an alleged friend of the race, voice any objection to the confirmation of Miss Allen? Is it the intention of President Roosevelt, in his subsequent recommendations to the Senate, when filling a delegation of federal benches, to go out of his way to insult Afro-Americans as he has in the Allen appointment? Perhaps Mr. Walter White, national secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., can forget his proposed Virgin Islands trip long enough to make some important investigations closer to home. Somebody sent a telegram to the Rev. John Haynes Holmes, member of the national board of directors of the N. A. A. C. P. It bore the name a Clarence judge, although with incorrect initials, and it spoke in fulsome praise of Judge Allen's qualifications as a liberal. It was not sent by the judge in question, nor did it in any way represent his sentiments. Did Miss Susan Rebhan deliberately employ that judge's name? She has not denied sending the telegram. And why did the national office so mistrust the intelligence of the officers of its Cleveland branch that it permitted a single opposition message to be accepted without questioning its source or the motive behind its sending. At no time in the past twenty-five years, that is, since its inception, has the prestige of the N. A. A. C. P. sunk lower in Ohio. Its honest supporters are deeply chagrined. Their efforts have been set at naught by as cheap a piece of political trickery as Cleveland's history can boast. Can the N. A. A. C. P. rebuild in Ohio? Can it replace its dummy state organization with a real fighting body or is it destined very soon to be replaced by a more vigorous and more aggressive society? Political double-crossing within the N. A. A. C. P. nearly ruined the fight against former Senator McCulloch. It has wrecked the struggle against Judge Florence Allen. The N. A. A. C. P. must do more in Ohio than send its officers here to collect the dollars. It must, if there is a spark of executive ability left in it, fight the Florence Allens and the Carl Weygandts. If it cannot, let the organization pass into history without further loss of time. Member N. A. A. C. P. HE WON AND LOST At the Same Time—From "Down Home"—Loves "the Ponies," Too. Tuggle McCall, age 38, of 10615 Englewood Ave., collected $20, Tuesday, on a horse race, but his winships had to be taken to him in a cell at county jail.

Hon, Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Sir: Very pleased to enclose herewith copy of opinion, just rendered by our Ohio Attorney General, John W. Bricker, which is self-explanatory. I have already been in touch with the Civil Service Commission and it looks as though they will not hesitate to conform forthwith with this opinion. Very truly yours, Chester K. Gillespie. The Opinion. No person can be denied the right to take a civil service examination by reason of his failure to set forth in his application his race or to attach thereto his photograph. Attorney General John W. Bricker ruled today in an opinion to Frank Cave, Speaker. House of Representatives said the applicant was given in response to a resolution adopted by the House of Representatives requesting an opinion as to the policy of the Civil Service Commission in requiring applicants to disclose the identity of their race and to submit their photographs. The committee that under the statutes the Civil Service Commission shall require an applicant to set forth in his application his name, residence, nationality, age and place of birth, health and physical capacity for the public service sought, business and employments and residences for five previous years, and the requirements reasonably required touching the applicant's merit and fitness for the public service sought. In interpreting the statutes Bricker stated that in his opinion the Civil Service Commission may require persons applying for admission to an institution to apply for admission, in addition to the matters specifically designated by statute, only such other information as may be reasonably required touching the applicant's merit and fitness for the public service sought, for the purpose of obtaining what such applicants should be admitted to such examination. U. S. CENSUS REPORT Of Cleveland Retail Stores Operated by Afro-American Proprietors Cleveland reported 215 retail stores operated by our people, according to a recent tabulation made by the Bureau of the Census of data obtained at the first Census of Retail Distribution taken in 1930 and covering business operations for the preceding year. Among the cities having 50,000 or more retail businesses, Cleveland ranked ninth in population, number of stores and number of full and part-time employees; eleventh in size of payroll; seventh in value of stocks on hand; tenth in amount of sales, and sixth in average value of sales per store, following New York, Detroit, Washington, Chicago and Pittsburgh, in the order named. This city had a ratio of 334 persons per store, a ratio greater than that of means, Atlanta, Richmond, Memphis, Chicago, Richmond, Philadelphia or St. Louis. The 215 stores reported sales for the year amounting to $1,156,859 which exceeded that reported for Atlanta, Baltimore or Birmingham, although each of these cities had a total number of persons employed, including proprietors and firm members not on payroll, was 435, and $108,666 was paid in wages to the 195 full and part-time employees. Stocks on hand at end of the year had an average of $1,156,859 sales for the year amounted to $1,156,859, or an average of $5,381 per store.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS ORSHIP CRISIS MAGAZINE! THAT IS GENERAL THRUOUT ENTRY AMONG OUR PEOPLE. Hey Excoriates Du Bois for Back- accepting Segregation and "Jim-Crow Negroes." OF THE CRISIS MAGAZINE! IS THE DEMAND THAT IS GENERAL THRUOUT THE COUNTRY AMONG OUR PEOPLE. A Chicago Attorney Excoriates Du Bois for Back-Sliding, Accepting Segregation and Joining "Jim-Crow Negroes." Chicago, Ill.—Atty. Irvin C. Mollison, president of the Illinois state conference of the N. A. A. C. P., when interviewed by a Chicago Defender reporter, vigorously denounced the policy and program of segregation enunciated by Dr. Wm. E. Burghardt DuBois in his lecture before the National Student club of Chicago, Sunday week. nomic world, and particularly he decries the exclusion of the so-called cultured Negro from the social, economic, literary, financial and political advantages of the general white world and their separation from personal association with so-called cultured whites. "DuBois was never concerned with the masses of the Negroes and their Mr. Mollison stated emphatically that the official policy and program of the Illinois state conference and its branches were diametrically opposed to the defeatist philosophy of segregation expounded by the editor of the Crisis, and that the Illinois state conference unequivocably stands for full social, political and economic rights and is squarely against any sympathetic color caste oppression and injustices which may be practiced in Illinois or anywhere in the United States. Mr. Mollison continued: "DuBois surrendered his principles several years ago and compromised the Colored groups' fight for equality when he accepted a $3,300 fellowship from the Rosenwald foundation and interests. After the acceptance of such a share of the organization and from interests which practice and promote segregation and discrimination, he could not thereafter fight segregation, discrimination and injustices meted out to the Colored race; and especially he could not fight projects advanced by these same interests, which carry with them not only the principles but the practice of segregation and tacit acceptance of racial inferiority. Again, his acceptance of a professor at a university which is dependent upon foundations and rich donors is not consistent with a fearless challenge and unequivocable demand for complete equality and civil rights for the Colored race. "The position of DuBois, however, is not surprising to one who has closely analyzed his intellectual position in the past, although the deterioration of his moral fabric is more rapid than anticipated by his critics, of which I have always been one of the most severe. Several weeks ago in a controversy with certain elements of the managing control of the N. A. A. C. P., he stated that he was not for compulsory segregation, but inferred that he was for voluntary segregation by the race itself, that he was not itself that he is for compulsory segregation, without embarrassing the conscience of those who employ the pressure to segregate. "DuBois never did, even in his early years, enunciate a theory of racial equality for the masses of Negroes. He advanced a philosophy of the talented tenth which, contrasted with the biracialism and accepted theory of inferiority advocated by Booker T. Washington in the famous controversies, seemed to be an acceptable radical theory of race. But the booker was wrong. However, 25 years ago the masses of our people did not themselves believe in their own essential equality, and very few, if any at that time saw implied and inherent in DuBois' philosophy of the talented tenth an imputation and admission of the inferiority (by DuBois) or the other nine-tenths of our population. "In all of his books, "Dark Water," "Souls of Black Folk" and the Quest of the Silver Fleece," DuBois proposed an explanation at the horrors and cruel injustices of a color caste system which excludes exceptionally talented Negroes (one out of 10) from opportunities and personal association in the general white social and eco- DOINGS OF THE RACE The Scottsboro boy-victims have been in prison for three years. An investigation of the color-line drawn in its public restaurant was ordered, last week Tuesday, by the U. S. House of Representatives rules committee. Within the race appears another inconsistency. The largest propaganda organization is making a nationwide appeal for funds for the purpose of fighting all forms of "jim-crowism" and segregation, while its leader and heretofore most militant --- Not Surprising --- THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the New Yorkers.

"DuBois was never concerned with the masses of the Negroes and their welfare. He was only concerned with the success with which this tal- Prof. Wm. DuBois, ented tenth Negro could lift himself into the high regions of the white social, economic and political system, and especially into literary and artistic circles. Never Stood Firm. "When DuBois was instrumental in 1909 in the promotion of the Niagara movement and the subsequent formation of the N. A. A. C. P., he did not insist upon the formation of an organization and the enunciation of that organization's fundamental principles and philosophy, which would demand unequivocable full and complete social, economic and political equality, but accepted the compromising principles of an organization which stands only for advancement. DuBois did not stand and did not then demand the pronouncement of a principle of absolute social, economic and political He only demanded that our organization be based on from its then position or condition of inferiority, and that advancement could always fall far short of full equality, and is always consistent with various programs of segregation and proscription and denial of social justice, which are carefully and subtly pushed forward by such organizations as the Rosenwald foundation and interests. "Colored people have greatly mistaken in recent years the worth of DuBois as a leader, and they have themselves to blame if they have not realized that Dr. DuBois always stood for a compromise and never for full equality for the masses of our people. He believed only in full equality for the talented who he estimated to number, one out of every 10. "The present philosophy of Dr. DuBois is a 'subsistence philosophy', the subsistence being purely personal. The best that he could have done in the later years of his moral deterioration and surrender of complete principles was to remain present. The fact that he has accepted lecture fees for his education is a demonstration of his philosophy of segregation and lack of hope for our youth, does not at all add anything to his stature. Certainly, the board of directors of N. A. A. C. P. will be derelict in their duty and in their principles if they do not immediately remove him as editor of the Crisis." fighter is tacitly advising us to cease our fights on things that "this generation cannot change," so he says. —Clifford C.

In the newspaper, "Il Popolo d'Italia," Benito Mussolini, Italian premier and fascist dictator, insults our people, to whom he refers as "the fertile grandons of Uncle Tom," and appeals to the southern lynch-murders with the bogey of "Negro" domination of this country, asking, "Are we to see within a century a 'Negro' in the White House?" Somebody should tell him that that has already been seen and in this century. Wonder if what the Abyssinian army, many years ago, under King or Emperor Menelik, did to the Italian army, sent to subjugate the Abyssinians, has anything to do with Mussolini's latest outburst? SCOTTSBORO BOYS For three years the innocent Scottsboro defendants have been suffering in Alabama jails. Now come reports that they have been placed in solitary confinement "for engaging in fights" with the jail guards, "crackers." Evidently the southern ruling class plans either to exterminate the boys by torture or to suffer them to die of old age behind the bars, trial or no trial. The International Labor Defense continues in charge of the case. The N. A. A. C. P. remains largely aloof. It cannot afford, in view of Dr. Du Bois' statement that it "has accomplished little in the past twenty-five years," to watch the case from the outside. What prevents the N. A. A. C. P. from demanding an investigation of southern justice, through one of its friends in the House or Senate? Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts would be an ideal man to raise the issue, if the senator from Kansas, Arthur Capper, vice president of the N. A. A. C. P., is as lacking in courage here as he revealed himself in approving the Florence Allen appointment? What about Congressman Sweeney or Robert Crosser of this city, each of whom poses as a liberal? Is it necessary to arouse the whole world in order that victims of race prejudices may get a measure of justice within these United States? The I. L. D. seems to think so, and thus far its contention has not been disapproved. If the N. A. A. C. P. has any hopes of regaining even a portion of its rapidly disappearing prestige, let it employ its energies in behalf of the Scottsboro defendants. All those concerned over the Scottsboro affair can perform two useful acts. Financial support can be given to the International Labor Defense, Room 430, 80 E. 11th St., New York City, and a letter, urging vigorous action, should be mailed to the N. A. A. C. P., 69 Fifth Ave., New York City. --- WHO IS MARTHA GRUENING? Who is Martha Gruening and why does the Crisis, official organ of the N. A. A. C. P., grant her almost a page in its April issue, to stab the Weaver case in the back? Fearful of the growing furors over the Ohio Supreme Court decision, somebody or some organization is reaching into the confines of the Crisis organization in order to offset hostile sentiment against the Democratic party in Ohio. If Martha Gruening, or the national office of the N. A. A. C. P. were sincerely anxious to understand the Weaver case in detail, more would have appeared in the April Crisis. Why is there no mention of the dismissal of Prof. Herbert A. Miller from Ohio State University because of his friendship for the race? Why is there no mention of the Willhelmina Styles affair, the forerunner of the Doris Weaver case? Why is there no inquiry into the statement alleged to have been made by Miss Lundquist of the home economics building management department of Ohio State University that as long as she was connected with the university no colored girl student would be permitted to train to the home management house? And why has not the Hon. Newton D. Baker, a trustee of the university and an alleged liberal, taken the trouble to make a few inquiries? These are pertinent questions which are going to demand an answer. We would suggest to N. A. A. C. P. officials in New York that they get out of the habit of accepting without question statements which are rushed to them by some individual of prominence. Both Martha Gruening and Susan Rebhan of this city have obviously succeeded in taking Walter White's little crowd "for a ride." It is time they ceased being "Uncle Tom's" and listened with greater respect to N. A. A. C. P. members who are sincerely interested in the race's advancement. The White-Pickens-Wilkins outfit should stop the practice of bowing low before "prominent names." NO MORE CITY MANAGER PLAN. Former City Manager Daniel E. Morgan, a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor of Ohio, in a speech at Antioch College, recently predicted that Cleveland would return to the manager plan of government. Not a chance, Mr. Morgan. In event of such a catastrophe, Mr. Morgan favors a "small council of nine members elected at large," which would prompt eliminate our representation in that august body. Down in Cincinnati where they have had the city manager plan with the small council, of nine members elected at large, for ten or fifteen years, just once were our people able to secure representation in it, and after serving two terms, their "jim-crow" representative, Frank A. Hall, who died a few weeks ago in the South while on a vacation trip, was defeated, last fall. Republicans joining with Democrats who style themselves "charterites" to bring about his political downfall and thus make Cincinnati's council "illy-white" again. Cleveland has had quite enough of the city manager plan and its tremendous increase of its bonded indebtedness. Then, too, political bosses dominate so much easier under the city manager plan than under a mayor, as all know. The following is by John W. Raper, a columnist of the Cleveland Daily Press: "You haven't it in the newspapers so we'll put it in the record: “Kansas City, where the city government is so crooked it is called “Little Tammany,” has the manager plan. “Next time former City Manager Morgan makes a speech at Antioch or any other college, telling of the beauties of the manager plan, he might add interest to his address by telling about the murders and kidnapping in the Kansas City election Tuesday, March 29, 1934.” ABYSSINIA'S NEW PLANE. Addis Ababa—The emperor on Abysenia has received for his personal use a tri-motored airplane. It was flown to this country by a Swiss pilot.

Here Is a "Hot One" Found the Other Day in a Letter to One of the Local Daily Papers. It Is Rich. Just what have been the Democratic policies which the electorate have justly turned thumbs down on? Wrong in their advocacy of "free trade," wrong in their advocacy of "free coinage of silver," wrong in their advocacy of "tariff for revenue only," wrong in their advocacy of "government ownership of railroads," wrong in their slogan, "He kept us out of war. The writer should have added the following, even tho the electorate have not turned thumbs down on the Lynch-murder, disfranchise, "jim-crow" cars and the Du Bois specialty, now generally known as segregation.

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 has rejected the Executive, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey laws have followed Ohio's lead 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 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or entertainment, 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 disfounded nor less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people 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.

The ROUNDER Since our people furnish one-third of the Republican vote of the city of Cleveland, it will be necessary for them to furnish at least one-third of the votes cast for the bond issue when the special election is held, and if we are as loyal to the mayor, as we claim to be, this will be done. As a matter of fact, we can "put the matter over," if we will, and The Rounder feels sure that our voters will do so. The circulars petitioning Mayor Harry L. Davis to order a change in the control of the Portland-Outwaite center will be circulated next week starting Monday, so The Rounder is informed by the two young attorneys heading the movement. All of our people should sign the petitions, Councilman Jeremiah H. Finnegan told me not about the change long ere this. Members of the race, fully competent to properly function in the superintendency and assistant superintendency of the center, can easily be found in Ward 12. John Hawkins, son of Rev. Hawkins (deceased), a graduate of Lincoln university, and for several seasons an instructor in local playgrounds, is also for the superintendency and the assistant superintendency many weeks prior to the appointment of the present incumbents.

EXTRA TELEPHONE FOILS KIDNAPERS Wheeling Man Calls Ohio Police While Gangster Stays on Line An alert telephone operator and an extra telephone line frustrated attempts of extortionists to force Robert Rubin, of Wheeling, W. Va., to pay them $5,000. When Rubin recently received telephone calls from the racketeers threatening kidnapping if he didn't hand over the money, he had an additional private telephone line installed to his Wheeling store. The would-be kidnappers placed a call for Rubin's number from a pay telephone in Bellaire, O. An operator of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company, who had been told to watch for such a call, delayed its connection long enough to warn Rubin. As soon as he had identified the calling party as a member of the kidnaping gang, Rubin called the Belleaire operator on his second telephone line, telling her to notify the Belleaire police and give them the pay telephone's location. The extortionist was caught redhanded while he was still talking with Rubin. His confession implicated other members of the gang and all were captured. A. E.

Speaking of blouses re- minds us of a fad which Is going the rounds. It Is the blouse made of vivid bandana kerchiefs, ‘The girlish suit of quality-kind grayish green flannel in the picture is fone of those refined types which are making widespread appeal this sea- son. Its outstanding claim to high fashion 1s the fact that it is a raglan type and utmost emphasis ts being placed on these loose unbelted ef- fects. As to coats there is a lot being said ‘and done in regard to furless types for spring. ‘These gain distinction through artful fabric manipulation which achieves shapely lines through ingenfous seamings and queer little turns and quirks of the cloth which result in unusual necklines, likewise clever shoulder and sleeve silhouettes. While the two coats {ilustrated give the impression of extreme sim- plicity, in the final analysis they are ever so revealing as to actual style trends, The thing to observe about the coat to the left Is its clever collar and scarf combination. This 1s in keeping with the idea prevailing among designers that if a coat be fur- less there really ought to be some sort of scarf treatment in evidence. PLASTRON VOGUE . & a! Fancy turns to piustron and bib ef- fects. It will be worth your while to make a tour of investigation along these lines when next you saunter through realms of new neckwear. The plastron pictured is a very practical sort. It is made of beige linen and fs detachable, since it tles and but- tons as you see. Of course the cuffs are of matching linen. You will at once agree that this strikingly new ac cessory set of plastron and cuffs lifts this chartreuse mossy crepe frock into the ranks of high fashion. It’s a grand idea if you want to freshen up your midseason dress so that it will carry over modifily into spring. The new bib effects are lovely, especially those which are literally covered with row ‘upon row of either sheer pleating or marsew 1ace, There is another message conveyed in this model, namely the vogue for trim- ming touches of velvet on the spring cloth coat. In the coat pictured vel- vet goes fity-fifty with cloth for the wide single scarf end. There are also velvet cordings at the waistline and on the sleeves. ‘The notable thing about the other coat in the picture 1s that {t carries rather a boyish alr. It seems the younger clientele are hav Ing thelr coats fashioned somewhat after the lines of their brothers and what's more they nre topping their, boyish coats with felt hats which sug- gest masculine derby and fedora tn- fluence. The picture gives the idea. Note the self-fabric scart. The sleeves are interesting In that they gain thelr shapely mid-arm fullness through a perfectly tallored seaming at the el- bow. In a general survey one s brought to realize that coats for girls in thelr teens divide into two distinct classes, On the one hand there are the very sporty models and in contrast there are the Indylike dressier types which are eminently refined and genteel looking. For the former, ravishing tweeds are cited in colors which gladden the heart in thelr youthful galety. When it comes to monotone tweeds there Is a grayed green which Js the hit of the season. Soldier blue, which 1 lighter than navy, ts also proving a great favorlate. And if you are wanting to look every Inch voguish you will choose a plaid wool for your early spring coat.

Tf the hips are large but the shoul- ders inclined to be narrow, the block- ing begins at the shoulders and tapers off at the hips. ‘Wherever the most conspleuous part of the body, place there the least amount of emphasis. Color is another thing to remember to avoid for nature’s overgrown parts. Large people, as a rule, do better in somber colors and very fine stripes, which tend to slenderize the figure. Clothes for Spring Are te AA ihn cotn In general, spring clothes are con servative and wearable, ‘The two- plece dress, for example, an ultra-pracy tieal frock, is back after an absence of several years. ‘There are no extravagant changes. Radical sleeves have gone. Every: thing has a°normal shoulder line, or, tn sults, a simple raglan shoulder. The silhouette fs still slender, with curves, but the waistline is a little slimmer ‘and more fitted than before. Lengths have not changed. Spring Shoe Styles ‘Two new heels are slated for a spring premiere in the shoe fashion world. Strictly speaking, one of these isn't new, but a return of the very tall venetian heel—taller than Amer- fean women have worn for sixteen years.
