The Electric Roaster is a spacious portable oven. It is thoroughly insulated, so it holds the heat inside, and applies it to cooking the food...it does not cook the cook. Connect the Electric Roaster to any electric convenience outlet, and it bakes bread, biscuits, pie or cake...roasts any meat...has capacity for a 6-pound fowl or a 10-pound ham...and cooks a complete oven dinner, including meat, vegetables, even a pudding, at the same time for a few cents. The Electric Roaster brings you many advantages of Electric Cooking...always cool, quick, clean, safe, superior, economical. ELECTRIC ROASTER DEMONSTRATIONS The Electric Roaster is being demonstrated every weekday, from 9 till 5, at The Electrical League Exhibit. Here you can see it baking, roasting, producing complete oven dinners—better food, with less work. Admission free. Nothing for sale.

The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING Any candidate who will pay our money for votes in Wards 11 and 17 ought to have his head examined Pass this word along to all candid dates and their close friends you meet. The Rounder is informed that Councilman Bundy and Payne's new club-rooms in Thackery Ave., are right next door and almost in the entrance of St. Mark's Presbyterian church of which Dr. C. Lee Jefferson is pastor. If true, this is an outrage that every one of our ministers in the city should resent in no unmistakable manner. Wonder what Wm. R. Conners, an active worker in St. Mark's church, has to say of the church. Payne and the church to get their club membership cards (50 cents each) from the superintendent of the plant. This was optional in the case of those living in ward 12—Councilman Finkle's city garbage plant appointees. The club, it is said, is primarily for the purpose of having a place where the boy can pay their dollar, each day, to the Councilman Payne and the church to get their job-holders "for the ward club." This is what Troy Thomas, a World War veteran and a city worker in the street department from ward 11, very wisely rebelled against and refused to do. Result: He lost his job. There are about 400 city job-holders in wards 11 and 17, it is said. That means $800, every month, of these hard-working men's money "for the ward club" in 11 and 17. Bundy and Payne's club has a restaurant which charges $3 for a meal ticket, it is said. This is hard fairy to Skurdy's restaurant business, is it? The latest information, from an official source, has as many as 180 city job-holders in ward 17, and 255 in ward 11. Total, 435. In ward 12 (Finkle), 200 and in ward 18, 230. In addition to the number in ward 17, Bundy has possibly 50 more at least in other wards than the 17th. What a harvest, WHAT A HARVEST! When former Sheriff Edwin D. Barry was director of public safety of this city, a year or two ago, a mother brot her daughter, who weighed about 110 pounds, to him at City Hall with a complaint against the Apex club, which if memory serves The Rounder correctly, was located in the vicinity of E. 40th and Central Ave. The young girl of the race had been badly beaten because she refused to dance at the club with a white brute who apparently was under the influence of liquor. After a careful investigation of the complaint, Director Barry very promptly and properly ordered the club closed. It was not an order that JULY 28, 1934 AN IDEAL CANDIDATE. Atty, Charles A. Spicman for State Representative on the Republican Ticket — Primary, Next Month, Aug. 14. Atty. Charles A. Spielman, Republican candidate for state representative, was born in Niles, O., near President Wm. Wickmeylin's birthplace; attended country schools worked as a day-laborer on a farm, as a molder in a foundry and as a machinist. Refused a raise in pay, from fifty cents a day, by the manager of a machine shop in Niles, he worked as a day-laborer on a farm, and came to Cleveland paying for his transportation by removing a cinder from the eye of a brakeman. Here he obtained employment in a machine shop at $2 a day and attended night-school. While finishing his trade, he passed an examination for city fireman, serving in that capacity for sixteen years. While thus employed, he studied law at the fire-station under preceptors from Western Reserve University, and in 1912 to attend college, he was presented with a gold watch by associate members of the department which he carries and cherishes to this year. Mr. Spielman entered Ohio Northern University, Cleveland and Cincinnati law schools; enjoyed a summer term at Wisconsin University for one year at Columbia University under the Hon. John Bassett Moore. For twenty years, he has practiced law, and has worked times with the late Judge John J. Sullivan. Mr. Spielman has always cared for his parents and has also helped to support and educate two needy children. He is a member of the Cleveland Bar Association, Tippecanoe and Western Reserve Republican clubs. From the foregoing the reader will gain sufficient knowledge of Atty. Charles A. Spielman's early life and his career as a youth and man, and once that he will make an ideal candidate for membership in the Ohio Legislature. All his life he has been close to the masses of the people and therefore is familiar with their needs and desires. Such a person makes the best kind of a representative in a legislative body of any kind. Therefore the Gazette does not hesitate to mason in the possible manner in the favorable orientation of all. Do not fail to vote for Atty. Charles A. Spielman for state representative at the Republican primary, Aug. 14, '34—Adv. Klan Leader Sent to the Pen. Jacksonville, Fla.—Edward Young Clarke, former high official of the Klux Klux, was sentenced in federal prosecution to five years in the Atlanta penitentiary on six counts of using the mails to defraud in connection with the organization of Esskay, a K. K. K. fraternal order. His wife was sentenced to two years in the Wom- man's Industrial Institute at Alderson, W. Va., on each of the six counts. Granted Only $10,000 Washington, D. C.—The Federal Emergency Relief Administration announced, this week, a grant of only $10,000 to the Virgin Islands while Puerta Rico received $500,000. President Roosevelt did not appoint an Afro-American Democrat to succeed the Hon. Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue for the third district of N. Y. City. A stay of execution of the death sentences of Haywood Patterson and Clarence Norris, Scotsborth boy-victims, which had been set for Aug. 31, was forced from the Alabama state supreme court, recently, by the I. L. D. affected other clubs in the district. About a month or so later, the director permitted the Apex to reopen. This he frankly admits was a mistake which he still regrets and says it should have been kept closed. This Apex club incident is the basis of the opposition, of many of the sporting element of the district, to his candidacy for the Republican nomination for sheriff and ought NOT to have any such influence upon the masses of our voters of that district, the city of Baltimore, the Rounder's personal knowledge. Mr. Barry has shown marked friendship for our people of this community. His private secretary and the secretary of the police and fire departments, all during his term in office, was Mr. Charles Smith, a member of the race who was placed on pension by the Democrats soon after Mr. Barry retired as director of public safety. His experience as sheriff of this (Cuyahoga) county and his experience as director of public safety especially fit him for the position he seeks. Capable, aggressive, frank, outspoken and thorny honest, he is better prepared than any of the other candidates for the position and if the Republicans are to succeed at the polls in November, it behooves them to make him their candidate for sheriff. He will add more strength to the ticket than any other person we can nominate for the position. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS ACCORDED A MEMBER OF THE RACE STABBED ALMOST TO DEATH. Bleeding Profusely From a Knife Wound in the Stomach, Charles Brown, Jr., Is Refused Service in a Police Squad Car. The following is from the Cleveland Daily Press of July 18, '34: ously injured. No one made any effort to get the druggist to at least put iodine on the wound. No one Charles Brown Jr., of 2527 Woodland Ave., was in a cell at Central Station today, charged with assault, apparently none the worse for being forced to wait 25 minutes for an ambulance yesterday, with a bleeding knife wound in his stomach, while a police squad car stood by, motor running, and refused to take him to a hospital "because he might get the seat bloody." Brown had been stabbed by Lenwood Odin, age 24, of 2315 E. 29th St., who was stabbed by Brown in an altercation over a car in the parking lot where they work. "Mess It All Up." The cruiser's crew told Sergt. McCarthy: "Don't put him in there, for goodness' sake, he'll mess it all up." Brown said: "I am cut bad. I wish you all would take me to a hospital." He fumbled with his shirt, exposing an undershift with a foot-square splot of blood upon it at the waistline, and this held it up aash, bleeding pustules, which one of the officers glanced at perfunctory. "Take him over to the curb," said Sergt. Simmons, and sent one of his men to call an ambulance. Brown sat on the curb clutching his abdomen while the minutes passed and a crowd gathered. The officers and clutchers and jokeers Brown's protestations of being mortally wounded. Seen "Lots Worse." "You aren't cut bad," Patrolman Yeager told Brown. "I've seen lots of them worse than that. I've seen them with their guts hanging out." More minutes passed. In front of Brown stood the cruiser, empty but for the driver, motor running. Ten feet behind him was a pharmacy, with a registered druggist sworn to give first aid to the injured. A short building, full of doctors and first aid equipment. No one made any move to get a competent examination of Brown to see if he were really seri- ATTY. JOHN A. ELDEN.

Don't you think he ought to be taken to a hostel? "There's one coming," said Sergt. Simmons. He walked out into the street and looked up and down for the ambulance but failed to see it. The empty cruiser purred away at the curb. It had arrived at 5:02 p. m. At 5:26 the ambulance arrived and Brown was taken away. SOUND ADVICE Given by Dr. Dwelle—Religious Extremists and Jazz Methods Scored —Baptist S. S. and B. Y. P. U. Convention. Newspapers were urged to give greater attention to the constructive achievements of the race and less to weaknesses displayed by some of its members by Dr. J. H. Dwelle, president of the State Baptist convention of Pennsylvania, in a post-convention address in Tried-Stone Baptist church, Sunday afternoon, on meeting day. The choir, a collection of more than 1,500, followed a four-day session of Sunday school workers and B. Y. P. U. leaders affiliated with the General Baptist Association of Ohio, which closed, last week Friday evening. Dr. Dwelle decried religious extremists who depend upon noise-making and jazz methods to express their zeal, asking that members of the church confine themselves to sane methods and use their minds to understand spiritual phenomena. Music was provided by members of the General Association of choir members from Baptist churches of the city, directed by Isaac Chapman, Rev. Charles H. Crable, pastor of Mt. Haven church and president of the General Association, presided. HON. GEORGE MYERS. The Democratic machine in Cuyahoga county has given the most glaring instance of machine politics exhibited in Ohio politics in many years. Secretary of State George Myers refused to reappoint Maurice Bernon as a Democratic member of the election board of this county, and every person familiar with politics knows this refusal was in the public interest. So the Democratic organization has endorsed Martin (white, a Democrat) for the place, and will endeavor to beat Myers out of a second term. Every Democrat in the state who believes in good government and conscientious officiating should make a note of this. Myers in a resident of Cleveland had made a good official, and is being punished for his lack of subservience to one of the most corrupt political machines existing in the United States.—Raymond J.

The Gazette would frankly like to know what plans the CCRA has formulated for winter relief. Are our people to be treated as half-human, confined to overcrowded, condemned shacks, slugged and murdered whenever the bolder ones ask decent treatment for themselves and their children. Already, our children are being barred from the better parks and playgrounds and threatened with death if they make use of certain municipal (public) pools. --- Do the local politicians of both races, imagine they can substitute "soft-soap" for the granting of human rights? If they believe so they have road little history and have digested nothing they have read. Few intelligent citizens are being fooled by the type of daily newspaper publicity appearing, recently, which paints every struggle for human rights as a war against the "public" or against "civilization." That kind of buncombe may serve to frighten babies, but it will not be swallowed by intelligent adults. --- Who, actually killed Mrs. Vinie Williams, the mother of several small children, last week, at the CCRA office in E. 40th St.? The account in the daily papers leaves much to be explained. Was Salvatore Arzenti, also shot to death, the man who used the gun, or was it a member of the Cleveland police force? Only recently two Cleveland police were found guilty of beating an innocent man (white) to death. At no time have they been in the least particular when our men or women stepped in their way. It has always been open season for black victims. WHAT NEXT? Ever since the days of A. Granville Dill, the N. A. A. C. P. has found it difficult to obtain and then retain the services of a business manager. One reason, of course, is the depression, and, too, it is easier to find fault when times are hard. Another reason is the complete muddle in which the leadership of the N. A. A. C. P. mends itself. It simply does not know in what direction to maneuver. Any criticism, whether honest or specious, is immediately hailed as evidence of "disloyalty." George Streater sympathizes with DuBois and apparently indoles the latter's segregation policy. Therefore, he deserved to be ousted, but the charge of "disloyalty" is a little too strong. The N. A. A. C. P. leadership, today, attacks as "disloyal," members who oppose every brand of segregation. Other things that render one "disloyal" to the N. A. A. C. P., today, is failure to see in its secretaries two perfect deities, and the refusal to view its board of directors, which ran away from the Doris Weaver case, as a body of supreme intelligence. WAS 13 A VICTORY? While it is pleasing to record that the Cleveland Board of education has gone on record not to permit student groups to have outings at Euclid Beach park so long as any of the schoolchildren must suffer discrimination, we do not believe that the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P. can halt the resolution as a full or satisfactory victory, and this opinion is shared by many influential members of that organization. If our children remain away from the park, naturally there will be no "problem." But this method of solving an issue is utterly stupid. The N.A.A.C.P. would have been on firmer ground had it insisted that the board of education make a bona fide effort to force equal treatment at Euclid Beach. In the absence of such a program, we suggest that our citizens and their white friends force the issue at Euclid Beach. Go there in good faith and insist upon absolute equality. Your rights are guaranteed by our Ohio Civil Rights law. We recommend such a plan to Mr. Frank Bell, director of the Junior N. A. A. C. P., and Mr. Walter Dicks who is heading the League of Struggle for "Negro" Rights. Do not remain satisfied with paper resolutions of the kind mentioned in the fore going. AN IDEAL CANDIDATE. We desire to call the attention of our voters in this city and county, particularly to the candidacy of Atty. Chas. A. Spielman, extended notice of which will be found elsewhere in this paper. Mr. Spielman is a selfmade man of such wide experience as would keep any person close to the masses of the people. He knows what it is to work hard with his hands as well as otherwise. A molder in a foundry, a machinist, a fireman in the city of Cleveland, an active attorney, the product of Ohio Northern University, Cleveland and Cincinnati Law schools, with a term at Wisconsin University, studying international law, and a year at Columbia University under the Hon. John Bassett Moore, one of the greatest international jurists this country has ever produced. For more than twenty years he has practiced law in this city, at one time being associated with the late Judge John J. Sullivan who served a number of years before his death as president of the Cleveland Bar Association. Mr. Spielman has always cared for his parents and helped to support his needy children. His membership in the Cleveland Bar Association, Tippecanoe and Western Reserve Republican clubs indicate his status as a first-class member of his profession and sterling Republican. Thruout his professional career, he has been broad-minded, free of prejudices of all kinds and always friendly to the race. His candidacy for the legislature is therefore ideal and should be taken advantage of by all people who desire to have a member of that august body upon whom they can depend absolutely. Therefore, The Gazette argues our voters, particularly, to support Mr. Spielman's candidacy. This will be easy to do because there are fifteen or sixteen candidates, for membership in the lower house of the State Assembly, to be nominated at the primaries, Tuesday, Aug. 14, 1934. HOW LONG, O HOW LONG! The Gazette calls the attention of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch to the outrageous treatment accorded Chas. Brown, Jr., by a police squad-car crew on July 18, 194, an account of which will be found on the first page of this paper. Stabbed almost to death and bleeding profusely, Brown was refused a ride to a hospital in a squad car and left sitting on a curb for nearly twenty-five minutes. This because of a fear that he would "mess up" the car with blood. Whether he was dying or not, did not seem to interest the members of the car-crew. The near a building in which there were a score or more doctors and very near a drug store where "first aid" could have been secured, "the officers and crowd laughed and joked at Brown's protestations of being mortally wounded." This is the kind of treatment usually accorded our people. And we have three members of the City Council who seem so busy arranging to collect $2 a month, as well as 50c for membership in the Payne and Bundy club in Thackeray Ave. (almost in the entrance to St. Marks Presbychurch), from their job-holders, all hard working men and women, that they seem not to have the disposition or the time to look after their constituents in anything like a proper way. LORD, HAVE MERCY! Just how long are our people of this community going to continue to tolerate such neglect and mistreatment from their councilmen? A week or ten days ago, a number of our young folk were driven out of the Woodland Hills Park pool, and Councilman John E. Hubbard was the only one of the three who seemed at all interested in the matter. Our people only, of all the various classes or races in the community, are barred from all of the eight or ten public pools except those at the Portland-Outwatewa center and the Central Ave. bathhouse. Our councilmen know this and yet do nothing to stop the illegal and outrageous mistreatment accorded our people only. How much longer. O how much longer is this condition of affairs to remain. There are all kinds of color-lines and unfair discrimination against our people in nearly every city department. Our councilmen know this, too, and yet do absolutely nothing to correct such a miserably insulting condition of civic and political affairs. The Lord knows it is high time that something was being done by the same and sensible members of the race in this community to bring about a change in our representation in the City Council of Cleveland. A. M. E. Bishops David H. Hims and Roverdy C. Ransom have been ordered to appear before the bench of bishops of that Church for trial as a result of charges preferred against them by the former's wife and the Detroit A. M. E. Laymen's movement, respectively. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JULY 28. 1934.

BREVITY Public Phone Booths in China Have Elongated Markers, Ex-Cleveland Says Complexities of the ancient Chinese language in its application to twentieth century commercial use are readily noticeable to Americans who follow business careers in China, according to Mrs. Florence Curtis Smith, a former Cleveland girl now employed at the telephone exchange in Shanghai. The Chinese equivalent to the English sign "Public Telephone" is "Public Using Electric Speech," Mrs. Smith says. Signs with this elongated name in Chinese characters appear over all telephone booths in Shanghai and other Chinese cities. In Chinese, the name looks like this: (PUBLIC) (USING) (ELECTRIC) (SPEECH) Mrs. Smith worked for The Ohio Bell Telephone Company at Cleveland before going to China.

And did we have a time! Everybody swore off work for the day except Clay Bailley, of Brawley, Caitr, our radio man; Al Carbon, our Cambridge, Mass., cook; and the dog men. They work all the time because the dogs don't recognize holidays and they have to be fed and have their quarters cleaned regardless of dates and celebrations. For three days Al Carbone has been the busiest human within a thousand miles of the South Pole. And he did noble work: Here is the meal we out away to celebrate the Declaration of Independence—vegetable soup, roast frosted turkey, with dressing and cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, gravy, creamed peas, hot apple pie, cocoa, coffee and some of our few remaining cigars. Some repast! Carbone almost had to protect his kitchen with a machine gun. Everybody volunteers to help the cook on holidays. Deceitful creatures, most of them. Their only object is to devour delicacies when his back is turned. in the afternoon, after the banquet, we enjoyed the Paramount sound picture, "The Smiling Lieutenant," and had a noisy song test which was enjoyed by Admiral Byrd, off in his buried hut, Halley brought in scores of messages from the outside world. Lieut-Commander Isaac Schlossbach, of Bradley Beach, N. J., of our aviation group, was so enthusiastic about Carbone's prowess with the skillets that he appointed himself his manager and offered to match him against any antagonist in a skil race, boxing.

Yesterday Bill Bowin, Navy pilot, and I got our hands in very painful condition working on the big Curtus-Condor plane in its undersnow hangar. I am now working with the aviation gang—instructive but darned uncomfortable. It is too cold—about 36-40 below—to take off our big glooves to work on the machines. We had to, to fix the pistons, and every time our fingers came in contact with the metal they froze to it and tore off a lot of skin. Lots of fun, eh! One of our cows is stick! This morning I visited the cow barn and helped Edgar Cox, of Arcade, N. Y., doctor her. He had spent a whole day and night nursing her and she seems a lot better.

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder-Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race-Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob-violence or anti-lynching laws in recent years. The law (which other north or south states 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.

(93 v. Section 6282 The legal representative, of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing.

If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the widow, in lieu of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate.

If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 12.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not receive 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. 1294. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, seeing house barber-shop, public swimming by inn, laundry 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. 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. Oer.

The Gazzette does not care to assess praise or blame. We must bear in mind, however, that members of our race, like those of other races, thru no fault of their own, are heavy recipients of the city and the army and entitled to adequately care of times. It is not too soon for church leaders in Cleveland, especially our ministers, to begin making careful surveys of the needs of their communicants in order that adequate re- IS IT ANY USE TO CON- TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination against them in social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; by mandate by and without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue.

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, DC, USA. EL SALVADOR, whose capital city, San Salvador, is rising out of the wreckage of the recent devastating hurricane which swept the Central American republics, is the only country between Canada and Colombia without an Atlantic as well as a Pacific seaboard. Though no larger than the state of New Jersey, El Salvador has been strangely deprived of its rightful place in at least one respect. As the average layman fails to consider Ecuador as the chief manufacturing place of "Panama" hats, so he also fails to appreciate El Salvador as the chief producing region of balsam of "Pern." times is spied a brown mating by his tail. Most of the people live in uplands, the volcanic Miguel, one of the high volcanoes, has an altitude feet. Nearly the entire suitable for cultivation, tisting mainly of deocr being exceedingly fertile the fact that the majority ple are landholders, acco teeming population, the contentment to be noted. Lava Soil Is Fear One of the oldest of all the chief export of is indigo. This native pla In colonial days cargoes from the Spanish Pacific seaboard settlements, destined for Europe, were unloaded at Panama City and transported overland across the isthmus because of the perilous passage around Cape Horn. Peru then was the best known of the New world regions and, in the European mind, Central American balsam which quickly came into favor for healing wounds, somehow became confused with Peruvian bark, the source of another newly discovered remedy. The balsam tree, one of the most beautiful of the tropical forest, is cousin to the acacia. It grows rather isolated from its neighbors, even from its kind, its graceful branches high above the ground. Native to the west coast of Central America, it has been exploited only in Salvador, where it grows in a limited area of 750 square miles. It has of late years been introduced into Ceylon. Watch the balsam trappers at work. Their method is primitive. Although the tree holds sap all year round, the tapping takes place only in the dry season. The outer bark is first cut with a blunt instrument, leaving the inner bark exposed, the flow of sap being stimulated by the application of a burning torch. After several days the sap exudes slowly, but steadily. Cloths attached to the wounds, having become impregnated with the balm, are collected, thrown into boiling water, and subjected to heavy pressure. The crude balsam settles at the bottom and the water is then poured off. The balsam, later clarified through evaporation, is packed in metal cases for shipment to Europe and America, where it is used for medicinal purpose and as a basis for perfume. Coffee the Best Product. In the coffee tree, however, with its creamy flower and ruddy berry, rather than the rare balsam, lies the wealth of most Salvador planters. A Brazilian school teacher in 1840 brought the coffee tree to El Salvador from his own country. The day he planted that first coffee tree in his garden he laid the corner stone of the republic's national prosperity. The Salvadorian aristocracy is of Spanish and other European blood, many Britishers, Frenchmen, Belgians, Italians and Germans having married into the old Spanish-colonial families; but the masses are of Americ stock, with a Spanish admixture—that stock that is loosely called Indian. Salvador boasts of having very little African blood. Often on the highways one meets a bronzed man or woman with those pronounced features and unique profile typical of the ancient Maya people, whose temples, in jungle-clad ruin, are strewn from Honduras to Yucatan. Such place names as Chalatenango, Cuscatan, Usulutan and their like bark back to the shadowy past. In the evening one sits in the courtyard under a brilliant canopy of stars, listening to alluring Spanish songs with guitar accompaniment and sometimes a serenade by the marimba players. The marimba, a musical instrument in use among the natives before the arrival of the Spaniards, is still popular in southern Mexico and northern Central America. In structure it resembles an enormous xylophone, but in tone it is more like the harp. It is played by four or eight men, who strike the keys with little rubber-tipped hardwood sticks. Charming is the scenery throughout Salvador. Lowland forests alternate with highland plateau; pleasant pasture lands with rugged valleys. Instead of fences, bordering the highway are giant cacti and flowering hedges. The scarlet poinsettia flares from its emerald setting. The air is laden with the perfume of jasmine, camellias, and tuberoses, here the favorite flowers. Giant ceiba trees, shading the road, harbor merry crews of chattering parakeets. High in the branches some times is spied a brown monkey swinging by his tail. Most of the people live in the heathful uplands, the volcanic region. San Mizuel, one of the highest of these volcanoes, has an altitude of 7,000 feet. Nearly the entire country is suitable for cultivation, the soil, consisting mainly of decomposed lava, being exceedingly fertile. This, and the fact that the majority of the people are landholders, accounts for the teeming population, the industry and contentment to be noted everywhere. Lava Soil Is Fertile One of the oldest of the products, long the chief export of the country, is indigo. This native plant (Jujulite) supplied the blue dye of the ancient inhabitants. Sugar now ranks as an important export. In the days of the Forty-niners, the greater part of the rum consumed by the California miners came from Salvador. Rice, like sugar, was brought from the Old world; but cacao, corn and tobacco are indigenous. Turkeys are kept in flocks in the tobacco fields to devour the worms and insects on the tender leaves of the plants. Corn and beans are the staple articles of diet among the poorer classes. Corn cakes (tortillas), sturdy cousins of our hot cakes, form the plate on which the friezes are heaped. Coffee is prepared in the form of a strong extract, a teaspoonful or two being added to a cup of hot milk. Among tropical fruits there is the delicious nispero, the fruit of the tree Achras sapota which supplies the sap known commercially as chicle, the basis of chewing gum. A picturesque touch on the highways of Salvador is the archaic oxcart. Like the head-dress of the Andean Highlander, the Salvadorian oxcart changes with the locality. Those with solid wheels hail from beyond the Lempa river, which flows in from Honduras. Bamboo slides on the cart indicate that the owner lives in a lowland region; cane sides, the sugar district; hide lining, the cattle country. Gold and silver rank high among Salvador's products. Up-to-date methods in gold mining were introduced 30 years ago, when an energetic American engineer obtained a property of high-grade ore and installed, with British capital, a most complete equipment. Later, acquiring a large tract of low-grade ore, he agreed to permit government students to complete their studies in mining and metallurgy at his properties. Thus Salvador secured without expense, a modern mining school. Capital Is Attractive City. San Salvador, the capital, with 75,000 inhabitants lies 65 miles inland and a little over 2,000 feet above the sea. Although founded in 1525, the capital has quite a modern air. While one-story structures predominate, there are a number of splendid government and municipal buildings of reinforced concrete and several fine parks. The capital's name, San Salvador, was chosen by Alvarado, its plous founder, in commemoration of his final decisive victory over the Indians of Cuscatlan, on the eve of the festival of San Salvador. The planters spend part of each year in their town houses. To those who picture the Life of all Latin American women as secluded and overchaperoned, it may come as a surprise that the *Salvadorian women of the educated class live much as women of the United States do. In the capital's two leading social clubs, wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters of members enjoy full privileges with the men. Many of these women have been educated abroad, are accomplished linguists, go in for athletic sports, and share with the men the responsibility of large country estates. The upper classes are most progressive, a large proportion having traveled extensively and adopted foreign ways of living. Their adaptability, energy, and patriotism promise much for the future of a country so richly endowed by Nature, one which could easily support double the population. Lake Ipango, a favorite society resort, ten miles by motor highway from the capital, is a scenic gem. The surrounding verdure-clad mountains dip steeply into the sapphire lake. Hotels and bath houses dot the shore and launches slim merrily over the water. While the elite buy in Europe and the United States, the masses content themselves with native manufactures, wearing home-made clothes, hats, and shoes. Many cling to the primitive type of dwelling, dirt-floored and thatch-roofed, so well suited to the climate. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. JULY 28, 1934 Dark Sheer Prints for Midseason By CHERIE NICHOLAS WITH the waning of the good old summertime when the clothes you have on hand begin to take on that sort of a "has-been" look which happens in even the best of regulated wardrobes and when it is too early to do new autumn regalia, what then? Every woman who inspires to an up-to-moment appearance knows' the baffled feeling which comes when this nagging, disturbing-of-the-pace question comes up. But why worry, for here's encouraging news in regard to this very problem. Briefly told, it's the good looking jacket suits of dark triple sheer print which are now showing in leading style shops and departments wherever one may turn. You can rest assured that an ensemble such as any one of the stunning models here pictured, will pilot you victoriously through that dreaded stretch of time which spans from the burning, scorching days of, summer to weather bearing cool breezes which hint that autumn is on its way hitherward. The beauty of these triple sheer costumes which are now playing so conspicuous a role on fashion's stage is that they are being given a styling so absolutely up to the instant in chic, the moment you don one you are apt to experience thrills as exultant as a mannikin at a style show as she pirouettes back and forth before the eager and admiring eyes of her audience. Then, too, these sheers are cool when you want them to be and with their jackets they provide just the degree of comfort and protection necessary for the erratic changes of a fickle thermometer. By the way had you noticed that scarcely a one-piece dress is to be seen this season, be it USE SAILOR COLLAR NOW EVEN ON SHOES And now they're wearing sailor collar on shoes. Already they've put sailor collars on everything from bathing suits to nightgowns. So now you may literally be nautical from head to foot. Your gob hat and your middy shirt-walst dress will find their reflection on the toe of your novel sports sandal, which may combine red patent leather and white linen, and uncomfortably will sport a little sailor collar design on the toe. Shoes must match your costume nowadays not only in fabric and color, but in atmosphere. The dress trimmed with rows of stitching demands a stitched pump to set it off. The suit with pearl buttons has its matching pump, with a button instead of a buckle. New Fabrics and Colors Shown in Summer Gloves Chanut has used both new fabrics and colors to make some of the smartest of summer gloves. Most of them are designed to match a jabot or eravat such as the old-time dandies used to wear, intended to be worn with the same frock. Necktie silk—navy dotted with white and brown splashed with green—fashions jaunty gaudet gloves worn with ascot eravats. Black and white and red and white checked taffeta gloves have matching scarfs finished with a great bow worn on one side of the throat. Cellophane Embroidery Black cellophane embroidery is a favorite trim for white organdle dresses of romantic design. Huge Red Dots Red pistilles of enormous size, printed on white chiffon, are replacing dot designs in importance. day or night, without a matching or related jacket? Everything with a jacket, is the new slogan and just because the idea is so thoroughly practical the vogue is moving on of its own momentum. Turning to our illustration we know that you will agree that the jacket dress on the standing figure is of unerring style appeal. It is fashioned of triple sheer of bemberg in the new Vionnet bowknot print. The crisp organdie jabot is worked in the two colors of the print. The slim little jacket with its voluminous and graceful cap sleeves conveys a message of high-style distinction. Cool and comfortable for the young girl is the little jacket-frock to the left. The bright monotone print in triple sheer of bernberg employed for this winsome outfit carries an animated patterning of wee gay monotone posies—a perfect complement to youth. The link-button fastening at the waistline accents the modish slimness of this young modern. The pleated frill which collars the jacket also bespests a youthful note. The insistent call of the mode for white accents on dark prints is answered in the swagger jacketed dress to the right. This model is a bit more grown-up than the one just described which should make it of special interest to the matron. As a matter of fact it is a type which tunes to most any age from teens on. This distinguished ensemble like its companion models in the picture is also made of bernberg triple sheer. It again reminds that the polka dot vogue is still going strong. The huge wide collar and flaring cuffs are of white taffeta. @ by Western Newspaper Union IT'S ORGANDIE By CHERIE NICHOLAS By CHERIE NICHOLAS According to the latest dictates of fashion sheer prints are smartest when they have dark backgrounds. Here is one of the prettiest organdie frocks brought out this season. It is black and white, which gives it a Paris look, for smart-dressed French women continue steadfast in their favor for black-and-white. Flame red shoulder flowers supply the dash of color which glorifies the whole scheme of things.
