THE first multiple teletypewriter switchboard ever to be installed in Ohio, and in some respects the first of its kind in the world, is operating in The Ohio Bell Telephone Company building in Akron. The new board, which was cut into service recently, gives teletype subscribers in Akron and surrounding cities the same kind of connection service for typed messages that is furnished universally for local and long distance telephone calls. It is operated on the same principle as the multiple switchboard used for regular telephone calls.

Through the new board, teletype subscribers in Akron, Canton, Girard, Massillon, Salem and Youngstown, which are now served from the Akron teletype exchange, may be connected with any of more than 4,000 Bell System teletypewriters in the United States. Installation of the new equipment was made necessary by the rapid increase in teletype usage by business firms in the Akron area, particularly by rubber and steel concerns. The usage jumped over 400 per cent last year. In the entire Bell System, the Akron area is second only to Chicago in the amount of teletype revenue and the number of messages per customer. --- THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1934 FRESH OHIO NEWS SENT IN BY "THE OLD RELIABLE" GAZETTE'S CORRESPONDENTS.

HEAR!! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING Wonder how many remember that "Jud" Wilson of the Pittsburgh "Crawfords" has the honor of having made the longest hit in a ballgame in the local stadium? It was registered off Parmalee, a New York pitcher, in an exhibition game with Hack Wilson's All-Star National league team, in October, 1932. The City Council sure "bumped" Councilman Bundy again, Monday evening, at its regular meeting just before taking its month's vacation. By an overwhelming vote of 21 to 9 it defeated his ordinance authorizing the administration to receive bids for Cleveland street lighting system. The Council surely has convinced even Bundy that he is not "running the city." Complaints are still general, only greatly multiplied, because of the miserable condition of things at the Portland-Outwaithe center, particularly the pool. And it is high time the promised change in the center's management be made. Supt. Van Pelt and Assist. Supt Glover should be given places elsewhere (at once) they are capable of filling, accept responsibility for coordinating the intelligence of our people of this community for the shameful condition of affairs at the Center to remain a day longer. Councilman Herman Finkle is being held responsible for it and is making a great mistake by refusing to accede to the very general demand for the change. The reason there are none of our people in the fire department of this city is because none of our young men have qualified, and that if any will qualify by passing the civil service examination, Councilman Payne says he will push their cases and "make a test case of them." We hope some of our young men will pass the examinations so that all three of our councilmen can "get busy." Since that is the only way they will ever get into the fire department, The Rounder advises them to "step on it!" There will never be a "jim-crow" fire department in Cleveland. The pools at Central Ave. bathhouse and Portland-Outwaite center are the only ones, of the eight or ten other public pools in the city, that are open to our people and we have three members of the City Council—Payne, Hubbard and Bundy. Last week, with the assistance of a guard and a police officer, a number of our young folk were agile and able to navigate the Woodland Hills park pool. Councilman John E. Hubbard has carried the matter to the Mayor who has promised to interest himself in it. That public pool and all others (about ten) in the city belong to and are supported by the taxpayers of Cleveland, among whom are thousands of our people. Therefore, it is "high-time" step were being taken to open all pools and to reduce the lack of their color or their racial connection. The Mayor has only to station Patrolman Jones and another good officer of the race at the Woodland Hills park pool to settle the matter there and settle it right! The Rounder is informed that Miss Constance Fisher, possibly our most efficient social worker with the C. C. R. A. (Associated Charities), is soon to leave the city because she cannot get a much-deserved promotion. She should be given a promotion to give our three councilmen a chance to do their clear duty in the matter. ROOSEVELT SAYS MARINES TO LEAVE Promises Early Withdrawal of U. S. Troops as He Visits Haiti Cape Haitien, Haiti — After promising prompt withdrawal of American marines from the little black republic of Haiti, President Roosevelt joined the chief executive of Haiti last week Thursday, in a President Roosevelt. toast to the restoration of complete independent relations between the two republics. The president disembarked from the U. S. S. Houston, which is taking him to the Pacific Ocean on his vacation. He made a brief address—partly in French—at the Union Club, saying the marines will leave Haiti within a month or so. He expressed the hope that the marines would be remembered as friends who tried to help Haiti. Something that is impossible, since they killed too many (more than 2500) natives and lowered the moral status here too greatly since their arrival in this country. Later President Stenio Vincent called upon President Roosevelt on the cruiser. In his two-hour visit here President Vincent through the streets of this ancient town founded at the base of mountains by Christopher Columbus. At the club, President Vincent toasted the visitor and pledged friendship between the two countries. President Roosevelt then accepted a glass of wine and drank to the new friendship signified by the imminent removal of the marines was fired as the visiting president arrived, and crowds turned out in the flag-draped streets to cheer him. The Houston set out later in the day for Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. RECALL PEARSON Virgin Islanders Ask President Roosevelt to Do So—Governmental Officials Dined St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. President Roosevelt boarded the U.S. cruiser "Houston," Sunday noon, at St. Croix Island, after an inspection of governmental projects in the Islands. The landing on St. Croix was made Sunday morning. The President, accompanied by Gov. Pearson, motioned across the island from Fredericksted to Christiansted, where the "Houston" was awaiting him. Attack Governor With Banners. The chief executive was received enthusiastically. On St. Croix, the native staged a demonstration against Gov. Pearson. They displayed banners on which was "We want a democratic governor. Please recall Pearson." In a short address at Christiansted the president asked Virgin Islanders to think of themselves as an essential part of the United States. "I want you to remember, today more than ever, that the people of continental United States remember and realize that you are also a part of the American family," he said. Last Saturday night here in St. Thomas the president entertained Gov. Pearson, Judge Wilson and other governmental officials at a dinner aboard the "Houston." He recalled that the great statesman, Alexander Hamilton, was born near this port. It is said that a temporary appointment (white) has been made to the position she seeks and is entitled to in order to keep from promoting Miss Fisher to the position. A letter was written to Supt. Stockton Raymond relative to the matter by the N. A. A. C. P. local branch, but he failed to act, as requested, before resigning his position as superintendent of the Cuyahoga County Relief (A. C.) Association. The N. A. A. C. P. local branch should not stop. It's letter-pressure should be supplemented by personal effort so our girls and other representatives in the work may get the promotions due them. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS GROUPS! THE "NEW DEAL" OME TRADE UNION MEMBERS RED BY SOME UNIONS. enforcing Discriminations—Favors Owners of the Other Group— Future Persecutions. FORCED TO BECOME TRADE UNION MEMBERS THO BARRED BY SOME UNIONS. The Government Enforcing Discriminations—Favors Farm and Other Owners of the Other Group Fixing Future Persecutions. As these illustrations suggest, the tendencies in government are particularly acute. Law Director Ezra Shapiro. Glenn, with two others, Harry Karr, first assistant police presecutor, and David J. Stein, another assistant, were ousted recently by Shapiro. The law director said he may not fill the other two vacancies until the end of the summer. J. J. Corrigan was named to fill Karr's place as first assistant prosecutor. La Vergne, Tenn—One white and four "Negro" itinerants were dead here, Tuesday, crushed when a Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis railway freight train was derailed. A number of others were injured. --- The leading editorial in a recent issue of the Chicago Daily Tribune, relative to racial oppression under the NRA, is so excellent and so clear and clean cut an exposition of what is happening to our people, particularly in the South, that we believe it ought to be reproduced and The Gazette is reprinting the paragraphs most interesting to its readers. The entire article takes up a column and that column takes up the fore, too long to print in full. No comment is necessary; it speaks for itself. Here, it is: the new powers are being exerted also to oppress racial groups. The "Negroes" have been especially victimized. Under NRA many of them find themselves obliged to become trade union members if they are to obtain employment, but many of the trade unions exclude "Negroes" and there seems to be no means of complying with the trade union to accept classes of members it does not care to admit. Discrimination by the trade unions and employers against "Negroes" is nothing new, but the marshaling of the full power of the United States government to enforce such discriminations is new. The operations of the AAA in the cotton belt have produced a strikingly similar result. AAA has created, in violation of the constitution, a favored class of farm owners. The crop reduction schemes are all calculated to operate to the benefit of the owner and in many instances to the disadvantage of the renter and laborer. In vast sections of the South the renters and laborers are "Negroes." Under AAA and the beneficial Bankhead bill the U. S. government will drive thousands of these unfortunate off the land, the Negroes" is as plain and as remorseless, though unstated, as is the frank discrimination of the bolsheviks against the kulaks. SUCCEEDS SELMO As an Assistant Police Prosecutor— Former Member Ohio Legislature—Jackson Named. Appointment of Hon. Perry Jackson, former councilman and state legislator, as an assistant police prosecutor, seceeding Selmo C. Glenn "fired," was announced, Monday, by ©RSS PERRY B. JACKSON FIVE KILLED IN A WRECK THE GAZETTE is the oldest comic 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 compari- son with any will immediately be published in THE NEWEST AND BEST published in the section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. show how discriminations can be imposed by the government without their being explicitly stated in any law or regulation. When it is remembered that there are no sharp distinctions to be drawn between the enjoyment of property, the menace of the new theory becomes even plainer. These enjoyments merge into one another, because "Neo" tenants can readily testify. There is no reason to think that the men now in power in Washington have deliberately sought to persecute men because of their racial origins or that there is any purpose to lay the ground work for persecutions in the future. Nevertheless, the citizen would be shortsighted, indeed, who over-looked the fact that in spite of their presumed tolerance the men now in Washington have unwittingly engaged in racial persecution. Moreover, the men now in office have accessors who if were so accustomed to their powers with the deliberate purpose of venting their religious and racial prejudices. The consequences may not be pleasant to contemplate. Prejudice, as has been said before, is endemic. There can be no certainty that a man in office will be free of all prejudice; the probability, indeed is in the other direction. If prejudice is not to be converted into persecution the separation of the powers of government must be preserved and the power of government to interfere in the lives of men must be inflexibly restricted. It is said falsely and upon wholly inadequate evidence, as we believe, that there can be no recovery from the economic depression without an extraordinary concentration of extrajudicial punishment in Washington. Even if this were true, the American people are asked to pay a price which is out of all proportion to the value of the thing to be obtained. What price recovery if it invites a reversion to medieval persecutions of individuals, social classes, and religious fellowships! DOINGS OF THE RACE Wm. Butler of Georgia, age 121, visited the Chicago fair, recently. Miss Josephine Harreld, age 19, was graduated, last month, from the Institute of Musical Art of the Jullard School of Music, New York City. Frederick D. Sapp, age 37, of Newark, N. J., who lost a leg in an auto accident, May 10, '33, was given a verdict for $10,000 by a jury, week before last. Irmell Kittrells, who murdered a wealthy farmer of Hillsboro, O., and got only $2.60, was electrocuted in the Ohio penitentiary at Columbus, last week. Prof. Rayford W. Logan of Atlanta University has gone to Haiti to spend a month gathering material for a doctoral dissertation on "American Interests in Haiti". Convicted of receiving money under false pretense in connection with the burial of a World War veteran, Forest Whittaker, prominent undertaker of Columbus, O., was sentenced to 60 days in jail and his wife fined $214, last week. "I can see no harmful biological or even psychological effects coming as a result of race mixture," declares the eminent anthropologist, Dr. Otto Klineberg of Columbia University, who is one of the country's foremost authorities on certain phases of race relations. In the exhibition of mural paintings, placed on display, last week, in High Museum of Art, under the auspices of the Public Works of Art Administration, Atlanta, Ga., is the work of two Atlanta University artists, Wilmer A. Jennings, a Morehouse graduate, and Hale Woodruff, an instructor at Atlanta University, it. Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe Conklin Bruce on July 7 entertained the historian and business man, Comte d'Ornano of Paris, and his friends, M. and Mme. Emile Schreiber, all of Paris, France, at their home in the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, N. Y. City. The Comte was a friend of Mrs. Bruce's brother, the late Edmond A. Burill, formerly American vice-consul at St. Elenne, France.

The portion of the Chicago Daily Tribune editorial published on our first page is most illuminating. It shows clearly how oppressive the "New Deal" is particularly to our people in the South. Read it carefully. --- The appointment of the Hon. Perry B. Jackson as an assistant police prosecutor of this city is as we suggested, last week, a good one. He can be depended upon not to duplicate Selmo C. Glenn's course in that position. --- The most pleasing thing that President Roosevelt said during his two-hour visit in Haiti, last week Thursday, was the announcement that the U. S. marines stationed in that little black republic for the last ten or fifteen years were to be withdrawn "in a month or six weeks." They ought never to have been sent there. --- In spite of the fact that our people of Cleveland have had three members of the City Council for four or five years the treatment they have received at Woodland Hills park pool and others for years has been a shame and an outrage! Last week at the Woodland pool pool there was a recurrence of lawlessness almost before the very eyes of a policeman and a guard supposedly there to prevent just such occurrences. Councilman John E. Hubbard informs us that he has taken up the matter with the Mayor and others in responsible positions. What are our other two councilmen doing to help him? NOTHING, AS USUAL? Lord, have mercy! ITS GREAT OPPORTUNITY In servering all connections with the N. A. A. C. P. Dr. Wm. E. DuBois, the retiring editor of The Crisis, writes as follows: "Today the organization which has been great and effective for nearly a quarter of a century, finds itself in a time of crisis and change, without a program, without effective organization, without executive officers who have either the ability or disposition to guide the N. A. A. C. P. in the right direction." DuBois is absolutely correct in the foregoing statement. The present leadership of the N. A. A. C. P. has not the slightest conception of the historical processes taking place or of the dire economic changes involved. On the other hand the N. A. A. C. P. insists it will not accept a segregation policy. That is also correct. Unfortunately, in actual practice, as DuBois points out, it compromises too much. The only correct line for the N. A. A. C. P. is one of constant struggle, but it must put up a real fight, not a sham battle. It must use its branches for something more than collection agencies. And it must make the fight for race emancipation an international struggle. Let the entire world know about the Doris Weaver case. Let it get acquainted with the names of Florence Allen and Carl Wergandt, alleged friends of Afro-Americans who were tried and found wanting. Trot out a complete record of legal and illegal lynchings, of Mr. Roosevelt's unwillingness to push even the weak Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill. Let Asia and Africa know what happened to our minister of Selma, Alabama, who wanted the "New Deal" to apply to workers of both races and was chased out of the city in twenty-four hours by the Selma chief of police and the Selma chamber of commerce. The atrocious Hitler will appear almost virtuous when the record of American courts and American law-enforcing agencies is submitted to the world in plain black and white. The present mo- Costly Ice Plague Returns To Ohio's 'Sleet Storm Belt' ```markdown ``` Scenes of damage on rural telephone lines in the heart of the stricken area. HOWLING into the famous "sleet storm belt" of northwestern Ohio on the morning of February 27, a blizzard from the west coated the landscape with a thick sheet of ice, seriously impairing service of telephone and other wire-using utility concerns. The weight of the heavy jacket of ice snapped numerous wires and many poles went down under the load. The ice was general throughout northwestern Ohio, with the heaviest damage concentrated in the vicinity of Toledo, Findlay, Fostoria, Sandusky, Upper Sandusky, Fremont and Tiffin, an area noted for disastrous sleet storms, according to officials of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company. Its eastern edge included Medina and Cleveland. Havoc also resulted in Indiana and Michigan. communication to outside point Telephone repair crews swiftly to re-establish service within a week all temporary repairs were completed. Permanent reitation of the telephone plant was bled by the ice, however, wiring five to six months and cost approximately $100,000. It is estimated that 450 mile long distance pole line and 100 of exchange pole line must be built by the Ohio Bell company put its plant in the affected area in 100 per cent condition. About 1,000 feet of new wire will be required to complete the reconstruc work. In recent years, telephone office state, sleet storms have been mined in northwestern Ohio and many dollars have been spent by phone and other wire-using Service was cut off on nearly two-thirds of the Ohio Bell's long distance circuits in the ice-ridden area. In some instances, communities were entirely without telephone ment is ideal for striking a powerful blow in behalf of complete race emancipation. If the N. A. A. C. P. misses its opportunity, it is forever doomed. INSIST ON JOBS. Although the world unemployment problem is too serious to resolve itself by some job-seeking campaign, the growing insistence of men and women of the race upon spending their money where some of our numbers can find employment deserves to be pushed to the limit. Since 1929 buying-power has been decidedly curtailed. Consequently there is a heated battle among retailers as well as manufacturers and wholesalers to corral whatever business is in sight. In areas where our people live and do their shopping, a substantial proportion of our men and women must be given employment. Bear in mind that the purchaser is in an unusually strong position, today. The consumer can do considerable dictating, but the consumer has to be organized. Insist on racial representation in the stores we patronize. Do not permit any merchant to treat us as an inferior by pretending that no intelligent member of the race is qualified to deal directly with the public. A JOB FOR DARROW An unofficial investigating commission has been listening in New York to reports on Hitler atrocities. They have heard plenty of horrible tales. The commission includes Clarence Darrow, noted criminal lawyer and a member of the board of directors of the N. A. A. C. P. When Mr. Darrow is thrue with his present task, he or some other good strong attorney should be sent abroad by the N. A. A. C. P. to acquaint Europe with the Scottsboro affair, including the atrocity perpetrated by the supreme court of the state of Alabama in sentencing two innocent boy-defendants to death for the second time. Hitler will be a thing of the past long before lynchings are out of the way, because the enemies of Hitler are advertising his regime to the four corners of the earth. Let the enemies of lynching and "jim-crowism" do likewise. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1934 communication to outside points. Telephone repair crews worked swiftly to re-establish service, and within a week all temporary repairs were completed. Permanent rehabilitation of the telephone plant damaged by the ice, however, will require five to six months and will cost approximately $100,000. It is estimated that 450 miles of long distance pole line and 100 miles of exchange pole line must be rebuilt by the Ohio Bell company to put its plant in the affected area in 100 per cent condition. About 1,500-000 feet of new wire will be required to complete the reconstruction work. In recent years, telephone officials state, sleet storms have been common in northwestern Ohio and millions of dollars have been spent by telephone and other wire-using companies to repair their damage. The worst storm occurred in 1928, when pole lines throughout the area were flattened, resulting in $1,500,000 damage to Ohio Bell plant. BOYLE. FOR TREASURER Exceptionally Efficient and Friendly —Our Representation in His Office—Re-elect Him. In the August primary and November election, our present county treasurer, the Hon. John J. Boyle, is up for election. Mr. Boyle is an independent Democrat whose integrity and efficiency is unquestioned. A record was established when he gathered in the budgeted amount in the spring collection of taxes and there was only ten cents difference in his account and Auditor Zangerle's. Every group and nationality is represented on the staff at the treasurer's office. Alten H. Dorsey, of E. 81st St., is a regular deputy representing our group and several of our ladies have been called as extra workers on four occasions. The ladies who have capably served are: Mrs. J. W. Ribbins, 2334 E. 30th St., Lulu R. Reas, 2250 E. 89th St., and Julia Wise Springs. Should Mr. Boyle be again returned to office, it is expected he will be even more liberal and appoint another of our group to his regular staff. Let's learn to support those who will do for us, and forget party. JEWS FACE PERSECUTION. There are influences at work in America to do to the Jews what Hitler has done to them in Germany. Jews are more thoroughly hated in America than Negroes. It is not as open and flagrant but more deep-seated and sinister. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of N. Y. City warned the American Jews on Sunday night that unless they organize to prevent it they would suffer the same conditions here which their brothers endure in Germany.—Philadelphia Tribune. A RUNNER NAMED MERCURY MARATHON HATCH VERY CAREFULLY TRAINED FOR A CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH, LITTLE AMERICA AVIATION and EXPLORATION CLUB LITTLE AMERICA ★ ANTARCTICA With Byrd at the South Pole by C.A. Abel Jr. President U.S.N.R. A man pulling a sled with dogs in a snowy landscape. LITTLE AMERICA, ANTARQ TICA, TUNA, June 26 (via Mackay Radio). I have just come down from the astronomical tower after observing my trillonth meteor. May be it was my squallion! Anyhow, it is pitch dark and I'm cold and tired, but I must get this story off to you on time. I am now a regular member of what we call the "Meteor Party," helping Dr. Thomas C. Pottler, or M. Pleasant, ia, chief of our scientific group and second in command here while Admiral Byrd is off in his hut 123 miles away; James M. Sterrett, of Beaver Falls, Pa. Ralph W. Smith, aviator, of Fred ericktown, O.; and Earle B. Perkins, of New Brunswick, N. J. Every night now for several weeks we have sat in the observation tower about which I told you in a previous story, observing an area about 12 miles in diameter and to an atmospheric depth of about 100 miles. In Dr. Moulton's book, "An Introduction to Astronomy," which I am studying, he calculates that, if it were humanly possible, we could observe at any given time from ten to twenty million meteors daily. In other words, that number of meteors are in motion and beaded toward the earth every day within the canopy of atmosphere with which the world is surrounded. Luckily only comparatively tiny pieces of a few of them ever reach the earth, being burned by the friction caused by their rush through our atmosphere. Twenty million full sized meteors hitting the earth all at once! Well, we shouldn't last long! Dr. Poulter's calculations, however, differ from those of Dr. Moulton. Dr. Poulter says there are at least thirty million meteors flying around in space every day and that Models Fair Bu The new World's Fair is a "sweet" one, thinks Cyrielle Du Muth, pastry chef of The Stevens, the world's largest hotel, and proceeds to model A Century of Progress Exposition building out of sugar.

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, hotel, or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 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.

An Afghan Silversmith's Shop. Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C. WNIL Services Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. THE story of silver is a very old one. For ages it has been popular among coin and ornament makers; yet today its name flares in the news headlines to an even greater extent than that of its fellow precious metal, gold. Less costly than gold or platinum, almost plastic in the hands of clever silversmiths, silver's everyday uses are legion. Not every one is born with a silver spoon in his mouth; yet the spoon, in some form, is almost as old as man, or at least, as one witty Frenchman said, certainly as old as som. One Greek example in the British museum has a stem ending in a goat's hoof. Pliny speaks of spoons whose handles were shaped like spikes to perforate eggs. The famous Apostle spoons, usually in sets of 13 (the additional one with the figure of Christ), were once popular gifts to a new-born child. Made in 1640, its handle an image of St. Peter, one such spoon is on view now at Wanamaker's in New York. Knives and forks came much later. That the head of the family should carve at table may have come from the fact that in old days men carried knives for defense. Forks were not generally used till the early 16th century, when Italian nobility started the fashion. The practice, though some thought it effeminate, gradually spread to other countries. The English novelist James Payn wrote of "the culture of the silvery-fork school without their affection." The "Llytj Reporte of How Young People Should Behave" gives these guides to correct table manners: "Your knife is to be kept clean and sharp. ...Eat your broth with a spoon, not slip it. . . . You are not to leave your spoon in your dish nor dip your meat in the saliere (salt)." Old beliefs cling to some silver articles. Malays make a betrothal cup. It is filled with siret (bethel pepper) leaf, and sent by a man to the girl he wishes as a wife. If she is agreeable, she accepts the cup and eats some of the leaf. Malays also use a silver box, rounded like an apple, for ceremonies at the first shaving of little boys' heads and at ear piercings. Sometimes this box is brought to a wedding when a lock of the bride's hair is buried in it under a banana tree for good luck. Odd Uses of Silver Articles. In tsarist Russia the proposer of a toast stood in the center of the room, drained his silver bratina, or drinking cup, and then, to prove his sincerity, turned it upside down over his head! The sumptuousness of the tsars' plate was proverbial. In this collection was a famous English wine cistern weighing 8,000 ounces, with a bathtub capacity. How this vessel, raffled off in 1785, when funds were sought for a bridge over the Thames, finally came to the winter palace at Petrograd (now Leningrad) has long been a mystery. Barcelona, Spain, used to present each visiting member of royalty with a magnificent silver service, remindful of a similar courtesy sometimes extended by one of our own states when a new ship has been named in its honor. On dining tables of the rich from the Fifteenth to the Seventeenth centuries, silver ships, originally designed to hold the knives and napkins, and sometimes the wine, made striking center pieces. In Toledo, Spain, is one such vessel which belonged to the daughter of Isabella and Ferdinand. Nefs, these ships were called. As early as 1392 Italy records a silver nef on wheels, a foreshadow of the popular German and Dutch models of later years. After the conquest of Mexico and Peru, silver flooded the markets of Europe, especially Spain. One visitor to the Spanish capital in the Sixteenth century observed: "Utensils of common metal are not employed here, only those of silver or of ware." Upon the death of the Duke of Albauquerque, six weeks were needed to make inventory of his gold and silver services." Nearly a century before the Revolution, pioneer New England silversmiths were busy at their benches. Among this group was William Moulton, of Newburyport, Mass. Pieces designed by him are among silver treasures shown in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Once Newburyport rang with the sound of hammer and saw, and ships built there carried Colonial wares to the ends of the earth, bringing back coins which its silversmiths melted for use in their art. This was known as "colin silver." Itinerant artisans worked even into our Far West until well past the 1800s making knives, forks and spoons from silver dollars. Colonial Silversmiths. Newburyport, however, is unique for its continuity in silverwork since 1890. One family, the Moultons, made sterling through six generations, the fourth being competitors of Paul Revere. When the last of the Moultons ladd down his tools, some years before our Civil war, an apprentice, Anthony Towle, was among those who carried on the ancient traditions of the craft, and today the pioneer factory bears his name. Colonial silversmiths flourished in spite of such Puritan sentiments as John Adams expressed in a letter to his wife: "If I had power I would forever banish from America all gold, silver, silk, velvet and lace." In Boston, before 1800, more than 150 names of silversmiths are recorded, and its rich merchants bought much costly silverware. British officers stationed in New York before the Revolution were astonished at the wealth of silver used in fashionable homes there. Our own Navajo Indians are good silversmiths, Using merely a forge and hand bellows, with a small anvil and other simple tools, they make buttons, beads, bracelets, rings, crosses, bridle mountings and buckles, as native works; as a concession to American demand, they add miniature caneens, stickpins, hat-bands, knives, forks and spoons. In such studios as that of Gorham's in Providence, designers create an amazing variety of silver prize cups and trophies, often in the form of horses, sailing craft, or athletes in action. Tiffany, Wallace, International and others are also known for artistic creations in this field. Silver In Olden Times Silver jewelry was not new when wives of the Pharaohs "dressed up." Helen of Troy used a burnished silver mirror to admire the face that launched a thousand ships. When Cleopatra flirted with Mark Antony on the Nile, gleaming silver oars splashed softly in the moonlight. Silver jewelry is worn in the Orient to guard against evil. Charms made from coffin nails covered with silver are common in parts of China. In India a peasant father may mortgage his whole future to deck a marriageable daughter with silver. Wealthy Indian women carry many pounds of this jewelry at one time, and tinkle liked belied cows as they walk. In Visigothic Spain, gold and silver were reserved for the ruling class, whose passion for shew led to fabulous decoration. Then the Moors came with greedy hands for the treasure. After the battle of the Guadalete, 711, "Muslim victors, stripping the Visigothic dead, identified the nobles by golden rings upon their fingers, and those of less exalted rank by their silver rings." Serenely indifferent to the Koran's ban on gold and silver ornamentation, the Moors embellished everything from dress to furniture, and even trappings for horses and mules. Similarly, modern South American cattle barons use bits and bridles of pure silver, as well as cruel, sharp-edged stirrups. "He bids his horse to dig for him a grave," said one writer describing Turkish scenes, "with silver-plated hoofs." THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. O. SATURDAY. JULY 14. 1934. *SIMPLICITY TAKES PLACE OF FRILLS Fanciful Doodads Discarded in Latest Showings. Froth, frills, and fanciful doo-dads have been ripped from the clothes shown at the Paris midseason openings. The silm, undraped, unruffled, and unruched silhouette has come back with a bang. Even Augustabernard, a regular little glutton for drapery, has smoothed out her dresses into long, slithering lines. When she has a little fullness left over she arranges it in one narrow vertical fold down the center front of daytime dresses. In her evening gowns she bunches three or four infinitesimal folds in one place; sometimes on the side, sometimes in the back. Vionnet runs true to her old form. She still throws a blas cut or two into every garment, but always with the idea of taking out as much fulness as possible. Her evening gowns look as if they were glued to the body as far down as the knees. Even below the knees there is scant fullness. The bell silhouette—just a fancy way of referring to a curved hemline—is Schiaparelli's special pet. It also clings tightly to the hips. If this style becomes widespread, the army of women bicycle riders will gain a good many recruits. THE NEW YORKER Beach make-up kit in one hand and decked out in trim shorts of Irish linen, this young lady is all set for an athletic day. When these shorts show signs of soil and grimy dust, into the tub they will go and out they will come with all their pristine freshness and newness intact. The beach kit is an immeasurable aid to the feminine complexion touched by sun and salt water, for it contains the new sunplexion lotion, cleansing cream and tissues together with other conveniences—plenty of room for any number of extra little trinkets. It's waterproof and has a big mirror in the lid. Nautical Theme Is Most Outstanding of Season The navy seems to have a permanent shore leave, for the nautical theme is the outstanding one of the season. Jersey sailor suits, with long gob trousers and short little jackets, are worn with mildy blouses embroidered with stars. Linen shorts, with white anchors and white stripes, are topped by halters fastened with anchor hooks. Beach sandals are made of straps of kidskin twisted to resemble rope, and rope makes smart belts with life preserver fastenings. Broad Brimmed Millinery Enters Street Wear Class Broad-brimmed hats are not confined to cocktail or garden party wear alone; many are designed to step out with a wool street ensemble. Some of the brims are straight, while others curl softly upward at the edge. With them go crowns so shallow they cannot grip the head, and many a model must be anchored in place by a rubber band snapper above or below the cluster of curls at the nape of the neck. Return to Favor Evening dresses with equally high back and front are returning to favor in Paris. FLASHES FROM PARIS The beret remains first in favor. Interest is shown in shades of gray. COLOR GROUP PICKS SHADES FOR AUTUMN Rust Tones Expected to Repeat Winter Popularity. Eighteen color recommendations for millinery for the fall season were announced by Margaret Heyden Rorke, managing director of the Textile Color Card association, following a meeting of the official millinery color conference committee and the color organization. In selecting the new shades it was explained that the committee gave careful attention to the basic costume colors which are expected to prove outstanding in the fall mode. New renditions of brown are strongly emphasized in this millinery group. ly glimpsez it in this minibery group. Closely allied to the browns are new versions of rust, which is slated to repeat its popularity of the past winter. Greens, which are expected to wip increased fashion favor as the fall approaches, are represented by stroller green, a high style tone of blush east; scottie green, of yellow undertone, and cedargreen, a neutral greyed shade of dark value. Bordeaux wine and French claret are rich blush reds included in the fall millinery group. In the blue range for early fall wear are yachtsman, a clear nautical tone; nighthlu, a dark navy, and bleu militaire, a high fashon grayed blue. LATEST FASHION By CHERIE NICHOLAS Here is an ultra-smart midsummer gown. It is made of a handsome Irish linen which has a rough irregular weave which suggests a cheviot-like finish. You'll love, it—does not crush or wrinkle and it is not stiff and starchy looking. A high square neck in front and patch pockets are points of interest. This desirable linen comes in white and pastel shades, and is particularly attractive in orange with navy belt and navy buttons all the way from the low-cut decolletage at the back to the very hem of the gown. The navy jacket which this lady of high fashion throws so casually over her arm completes a stunning ensemble. Beret Still Popular as Nothing Takes Its Place Berets certainly were high-style at Belmont. Every time one saw a very smart woman, she seemed to be wearing a beret. The big hats are so flattering when worn with the proper air, for it takes real manner to pilot a large hat successfully, but comes the time when it's nice to be comfy and casual. Well, the beret is indispensable, because nothing takes its place. Speaking of berets, velvet is first choice. It is softer and more flattering, and lined with the new buckram as fine as organdie, it keeps its shape and has the crisp, tailored look so coveted without being heavy or warm. Costume Coat Is Made of Soft Basketweave Sheer A coat cool enough for summer afternoon town wear, yet warm enough to serve as a wrap over soft chiffons in the evening, is one of the season's most practical designs. It is called a costume coat, and is made this summer in soft basketweave sheer. It is a straight coat, seven- eighths length, with huge gathered three-quarter sleeves. STYLE NOTES MOTHER OF QUINTUP.
