But to the housewife it means a lot more. Its presence in her home once again brings interesting chats, saves tiring trips, lightens housework, and summons help in an emergency. Housewives dislike the inconvenience and isolation of being without a phone. That's why many families who now are able to do so, are having phones put back in. If you'd like a phone again, let us know and we'll get it in promptly. THE OHIO BEL OHIO BELL TELEPHONE BELL SYSTEM THE OHIO BELL TELEPHONE CO.

Mrs. Lovelace taught for years in our Lockland school and at one time was connected with Smithfield, N. C. Institute. She was a graduate of Hampton, Va. N. & I.

Louisville, Ky.—Mrs. Edna Carr age 28, of 905 Jefferson St., this city, was arraigned in police court, today, for shooting Minnie Taylor, age 27 in the mouth with a 32-caliber pistol, last week Monday afternoon. Mrs. Carr put minnie, a roomer, out of her house, week before with a backpack, mask with a sheeppack, broke in and charged "Sister" Carr with the result noted above. The Taylor woman is in a serious condition. HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER Our voters in Ward 12 cannot understand why Payne and Bundy, and even Hubbard, have so many more good appointments of our people than Finkle has, especially inspectors down at the garbage plant. Some of them say that Finkle gives the good places to whites, nearly all of whom do not even live in the ward. How about it? President Roosevelt seems to have forgotten that there are, or rather were any "Negro" Democrats who supported his candidacy for election to the Presidency. Not one of them has been given a near first-class appointment and the outlook is not at all good. He simply ignores them and is worse in this respect than former President Hoover who was anything but good. Current rumor has it that Mrs. Lilly Mason, woman-leader in Ward 18, urged Councilman Hubbard to inaugurate the job车jobholder-dollar each-payday assessment in vogue in Wards 17 and 11 but he refused to do so, he it said (if true) to his credit. The less he has to do with those two "Blossom Triplets," Councilman Payne and Bundy, the better it is going to be for him, in the future. Most of the mistakes Hubbard has made has been in blindly following them. For nearly a year, The Rounder has been urging our people who owned property in that Cedar-Central so-called "slum area" to hang on to it, to go in U. S. court and fight for a reasonable sum for it and not present the government, to "skim" them of a goodly part of the real value today of their property. Fred Brown (white), an old "Cleveland boy" and former classmate of the editor of The Gazette, and George Jones, an old resident, are doing it. The real problem is, they will get more for their property than the real estate companies offered them for it. Don't be "easy." How many remember the "doublecrossing" the Hon. Clarence J. Brown's candidacy, for the Republican nomination for Governor, received, two years ago, from Bundy? Do you remember the name of Payne and George, "The Blossom Triplets," promoted in Wards 17, 11 and 18 the three large "Sweeney" Afro-American independent Democratic clubs, the only ones of any size among all our voters in this city? That is how loyal they were to the Republican candidate for mayor in L.A., L. L. the party. It is high time we were getting rid of that trio of political racketeers. Don't you think so? Rome, Italy.—Japanese penetration of Abyssinia, Africa, is causing considerable concern to Italy, after it became known that troops and munitions have been sent into Italian colonies in eastern Africa. This sense of uneasiness because of Japanese activity was increased because of growing militaristic manifestations in the empire of Abyssinia. Soldiers and supplies, consequently, were dispatched to Eritrea, Italy's colony on the Red sea, and to Somaliland. --- --- --- Italy Uneasy! WILLIAM J. RADDATZ Program Chairman, Sight Saving Council Less than a month old, the "Cleveland Plan" of the newly formed Sight Saving Council of Cleveland, organized to study recent advances in the care and treatment of the eyes and the proper use of light for sight and to spread this knowledge to everyone in Cuyahoga County so that all may see better, is being called for by other cities. From New York, New Orleans and the west coast have come official resuscitors for the organization chart of the Cleveland committee, the first to work together the group of cities neighboring on Cleveland into one great committee of men and women fighting to save the sight of boys and girls and of adults, too. William J. Raddatz, secretary of the Catholic Charities Corporation and program chairman of the Sight Saving Council, has outlined the plans for the campaign which will bring home to every citizen of the county the high toll that bad eyes take in health, happiness and even life itself. Twenty percent of the population have defective eyes, according to Judge Lee E. Skelce, president of the Safety Council. "It costs Ohio more than ten millions of dollars every year in industry alone because of poor eyes and poor lights." Raddatz pointed out. "From the minute a child starts to school to his last days on earth his eyes get progressively poorer and poorer. We must all remember that the older the eyes, the more light he sees, the more false teeth, but we can't see with a glass eye. Our eyes are the only pair we will ever have. Care for them." Clubs and organizations wishing to hear an illustrated talk on the science of seeing and the many wonderful aids to vision are invited to call the Sight Saving Council offices, 1826 Midland Bldg., Md. 7778. Doings of the Race Suits aggregating $100,000 have been instituted against the Baltimore Afro-American as a result of the publication of a news story concerning Austin Walden and Dr. Lorimer D. Milton, of Atlanta, Ga. Colored voters of Indiana will have to line up behind Hon. Sherman Minu-Dem) for the U. S. Senate resolution of all other issues. This situation is brought about by the fact that the iniquitous and despicable Klu Klux Klan is reorganizing to support Senator Arthur R. Robinson, Republican candidate. — Wm Warley in Louisville (Ky.) Leader. "The Orlanders" quartette is composed of Edward Jackson, Benj. Wailes, Ira Williams and G. H. Hall. For the past four years the boys attended Wilberforce University where they were members of the Wilberforce University football team, this past Spring. Stopping in Cleveland they auditioned at WTAM and were offered a contract. Preferring to finish college, they turned it down, but as soon as they graduated, last June, they returned to this city and were signed by WTAM. NBC officials heard them before they could broadcast for WTAM, an event they worked at. So we suggest that you have your dial tuned to one of the 65 NBC (WEAF) network stations every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 4:45 p. m., if you wish to spend one of the most enjoyable fifteen minute programs now afforded by radio. "I believe the main reason for the success of the boys," states Fred Wilson, NBC music instructor who was sent from New York to coach the boys at the city. And most of you will agree with Mr. Wilson after hearing the boys interpret "Moon Glow" in a mellow sweet rhythm and then skip right into "My Hat's on the Side of My Head"; then into a touching spiritual. ANNOUNCEMENT A substantial amount of money will be paid Ozella Allen if she will call on Atty, Alexander H. Martin at 122 Enginers' building—Adv. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS PAST! MAS H. R. CLARKE ABLE MISNOMER PERPETUATED FESSIONAL NEGROES”, Unsophisticated Men and Women of no Wilt Under the Miserable ignation “Negress.” SAYS THOMAS H. R. CLARKE THE OBJECTIONABLE MISNOMER PERPETUATED BY "PROFESSIONAL NEGROES", Hypnotized and Unsophisticated Men and Women of the Race Who Wilt Under the Miserable Designation "Negress." The word Negro is perpetuated by racial prejudice and ignorance on the part of many whites, and by a group of professional Negroes—that is to say colored men and women who make a profession of being Negroes; and by another group of hypnotized colored men and women, who believe that the Negro has some high and mighty mission to perform in this country. It is further perpetuated by an unsophisticated class of schooled women who are effectively willing to be known as Negroes, but wilt under the racial designation of Negroes applied to one of their women. One of the latest publications on Africa, places all the African tribes north of the Equator with the Caucasian group, and gives very intelligent reasons for this classification—stating that it is not a matter of color which determines the classification. All south of the Equator is placed in one general ethnic group—Bandi. We say that the Zulu is an ancient physician specimen of manhood in the world." Nowhere we are within the United States, mixed with European, American Indian and a slight strain of Asiatic blood, insisting that we be designated by a term, first employed by a Dear Friend:—When the copy of "The Old Reliable" Gazette, containing the announcement of the completion of its fifty-first year and the entering upon its fifty-second year of continuous publication (every week on time), arrived I was just leaving for a little trip and so did not get to send my congratulations at that time. Upon my return, I regret to say, I unintentionally neglected to carry out my purpose. I hope you will accept my belated congratulations as not in the least less hearty and sincere because of the lateness. It is rare indeed that any journal can boast of such a long and continuous ownership by one person, not to mention the record of uninterrupted publication during that time. Ohio's Mob Violence Act and Civil Rights Law are eventing monuments to your devotion and the consecration of The Gazette to the securing and safe-guarding the rights of our people of the State of Ohio and the country. With the resurgence of "jim-crowism" among our intelligentsia it is comforting to us, who are battling the tide, to know that there is at least one editor and one paper that is unswerving in opposition to such a suicidal policy. So with congratulations on your and The Gazette's past accomplishments and best wishes for a long and successful future The Pilgrim Baptist Ministers' Conference at their regular meeting, Monday evening, Sept. 3, at the Community Center, E. 28th St. and Scovill Ave., gave unanimous expression that the our people in Cleveland is being greatly lowered by the faithless and inactive attitude taken by our three --- A highly educated young man was complaining today that some of the Washington newspapers had dropped the capital "N" in Negro and was substituting the little "n" instead. Looking at the young man it was at once seen that he was about as far removed from the physical type which commonly passes in America for "Negro," as the so-called "white" man who happened to be present. He asked me what I that about it. I replied that I didn't care and handed what kind of an "N" was used since the word had no validity in the field of ethnology—that Africa had no Negro race or tribe, and that the word was improperly employed in the United States—that there was no Negro here now or at any time in the past. SINCERE THO BELATED Congratulations on "The Old Reliable" Gazette's Entrance Upon Its Fifty-Second Year of Continuous Publication, Every Week on Time. Springfield, O., Sept. 7, '34. Hon. Harry C. Smith, M.D. Yours truly, Charles W. Greene. SCORES OUR COUNCILMEN. The Pilgrim Baptist Ministers' Conference in Session, Recently, Severely Criticises Messrs, Payne, Bundy and Hubbard—Time for Action. 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 the best EST AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. ruthless band of Spanish and Portuguese pirates, which merely meant the skin color of the West African natives. Every colored man and woman within the United States white enough in color to be socially "white," should change their social habits, walk across to the other side of the line into the sun light of economic and political opportunity—into the land of freedom. There are at least two millions of who can do this. They have already hesitated too long and suffered too many deadly and weakening occasions. By every rule of the game they are Caucasians, and should seize Caucasian opportunities. Battling for the big "N" is nonsense and a waste of valuable time in the effort to perpetuate a word, which means remoteness from social and political influence, economic power and prestige. The orthodox Jew is in the same boat with our group fighting to indefinitely perpetuate a perfectly assinine folly. If the Jew had accepted the New Testament with all of the occidental races, he would not have been driven into Ghettoes, subjected to every species of physical mental torture, and in 1933 to be victimized by Hitler in Germany. Many印第安 of Jews however, supported the theological line, in every country of the world, and their progeny has met with contentment, prosperity and freedom from oppression, and will be "gathered unto the bosom of the fathers" along with their kinsmen who were tortured by thumbscrews and branding irons. The way of freedom and opportunity lies in sloughing off Negroism, and taking a lesson from forest and jungle, where bird and beast have developed protective coloring to a perfect art in the struggle for survival. Thos. H. R. Clarke, Washington, D. C. —in Boston Guardian. council members when any measure of importance to us comes before that body. The conference says: "It is indeed comical to see how these three councilmen are aroused to a frenzy during a political campaign and declare the unswerving devotion of the race to the Republican party, not only for the fraternity of freemen and policemen are placed on the payroll but only one member of the race. Winter is coming and the Central Ave. line will continue the poorest service in the city. Have those three men sought protection for our youth from the white thugs at Woodland Hills park? Did they do anything towards opening the hospitals for the training of our youth? We would believe it time to head the words of the Holy Prophet: 'Put out from among us those workers of iniquity.'" Signed, Rev. Tuft, pres., Rev. Howell, sec. LATEST GARVEY ECHO. Mrs. Marcus Garvey en route to Africa to Lecture—What She Has to Say of His Work in This Country. London, England.—Mrs. Amy Ashwood Garvey, wife of Marcus Garvey, who collected $1,000,000 from Afro - Americans to "to found an African empire" and was later prosecuted and incarcerated for alleged mail fraud, recently reached London. Mrs. Garvey, age 37, and handsome, is going to the Gold Coast, Africa, whose paramount chief, Sir Ofari Atta, has invited her to lecture. To a reporter Mrs. Garvey said: "Garvey had an idea, but it got too big for him. When I met him in the West Indies, I was just out of school. He didn't have a cent. All was a shiny old morning coat and trousers that didn't fit or match. "With the $1,000,000 he got out of the 'Negroes' in the United States he bought ships, founded banks, businesses, newspapers. His idea was to carry the whole of the 'Negro' population of the United States to Liberia, to be a free people. We were forced to sell the ships. They could not get sufficient cargoes. Garvey and I had no news now. He jamaica. He doesn't use his titles any more. I never called myself 'Empress.' I didn't believe in any of that title stuff. But 'Emperor' Marcus loved it."

The two national Baptist conventions are a standing advertisement of a great lack of harmony among our Baptists of the country. Both meet in Oklahoma, this year, and ought to unite, "for the good and welfare" of the great Baptist Church. Jeff Williams, age 40, an elevator operator in an apartment building at 160 Clairmont Ave., New York City, was arrested, last week, on a charge of violating the "Empire State" Civil Rights Law and locked up in a police station on the complaint of Thurston W. Lewis, another member of the race, who said that Williams had refused him service on the elevator, saying "this is an all white house. We do not allow Negroes here." That "brother" ought to be sent to Sing Sing (N. Y. state prison) and the key thrown away. ABYSSINIA. Led by King Menelik, many years ago, the Abyssinians beat back and all but annihilated the flower of the Italian army, sent into Africa to subjugate them. Then it was that that country laid the foundation for the world recognition it now enjoys. As a result, Abyssinia is better able, today, to defend itself than ever before in its history because its king (Menelik) and his successor or successors in power have been wise and drawn upon the best armies of the old world for instructors for its 10,000 or more warriors. So Italy don't need to worry and doubtless is not worrying for Abyssinia because of an alleged Jap invasion of Africa. That is undoubtedly a newspaper "story." If Italy is doing any worrying at all it is for its African colonies, and not Abyssinia. THE TERM, "NEGRO." The very objectionable misnomer "Negro" was officially saddled upon Afro-Americans by The Congress of the United States soon after the close of the war of the rebellion. Some day in the near future we hope there will be enough "Thos. H. R. Clarkes" among our people to inaugurate a movement to influence The Congress to give us a satisfactory designation, certainly one less meaningless and objectionable than the terms, "Negro" and "Negress." Every time we hear some "professional Negro" say he is proud of the term, we feel like suggesting that he have his head examined. As a rule, however, they are those who feel that they are currying favor with either prejudiced or ignorant whites, usually with the hope of financial gain for themselves or something they represent, like a church, school, college or some other organization. Read Mr. Clarke's article, elsewhere in this paper, carefully, thotfully. It will not only interest you but pay you to do so. SCHUYLER'S TREASON. George Schuyler of the Pittsburgh Courier, the columnist who imitates H. L. Mencken, is guilty of treason against humanity. Not satisfied with trying to wreck the defense forces in the Scottsboro case, Schuyler is now using his influence to see that Angelo Herndon, sentenced to twenty years in a Georgia chain gang for labor activities, is returned to that state, from which he has been released on $15,000 bail, raised chiefly by the poor black and white sympathizers of America. Five years ago Mr. Schuyler was a healthy critic of our peoples' fobles. But he has degenerated fast. Every decent human aspiration is derided by this cheap scribbler, but he reserves his choice pen-poison for the poorest and most defenseless elements of his own race. In a civilized society, George Schuyler would be in chains. He flourishes, today, only because a decadent ruling element can make use of a few specimens like him. Every intelligent member of the race should repudiate him without delay. IS THERE A PLOT? Is there a plot being engendered against our unemployed citizens of Cleveland, disguised as a housing program? Space is being made for the erection of new homes—for employed whites. The dispossessed poor black and white men, women and children of the Cedar-Central housing area are being driven into the gutter—mainly Jews, Italians and our people. Those who have some money are finding new quarters difficult to obtain, thanks to discrimination and exorbitant rents. Winter is coming on. Hundreds will be driven into shacks where pneumonia and tuberculosis will thrive. We would remind Councilman Ernest Bohn and his smug supporters that diseases spread to the better areas invariably. Influenza can not be limited to a single "area" or police precinct. Even the homes of swindling realtors and designing bankers are frequently invaded. The Gazette calls upon Councilman Finkle to investigate and seek the answer to the question: "What is to become of the dispossessed, this winter?" We call upon our three "Negro" councilmen, Payne, Bundy and Hubbard, to do one decent piece of work for their constituents, even if it hurts them to shake a leg and substitute a little action for noise and hot-air. We demand action from the N. A. A. C. P., the "Negro" Welfare Association, and our Ministerial Alliances. We would like to see the League of Struggle for Our Rights manifest a little interest in the housing problem, if its reputed organizer, Walter Dicks, is capable of doing anything. If housing is not adequate, people will soon be freezing. They will NOT move back south, despite the best efforts of the plotters. The elected councilmen (Finkle, Payne and Bundy) from the affected areas must quit bluffing the voters long enough to do one piece of constructive work. Otherwise, gentlemen, there will be a day of reckoning, and it will not be long delayed. Every man, woman and child in Greater Cleveland is entitled to adequate food, clothing and SHELTER, and THEY ARE GOING TO GET IT! COTTON CLUB OPENING! Don Redman, NBC Star — Five Other Big-Time Acts—Lattimore The new swanky Cotton Club sets a new standard in Cleveland night club entertainment, bringing to the city an array of high-class acts and national personalities.

WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD"! Cleveland, O., Aug. 25, 1932. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette. Dear Friend: I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can happily say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and, if possible, smite it. You and I have frequently, during the fifty years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNeils, but, when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, thru half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle. I take off my hat, and admire a true friend of our class. Long life to you and "The Old Reliable" Gazette. John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.) 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 unimproved education and are winning even 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; they are by nature without inferiority and are not '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 liberty of their people, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Wm. Monroe Trotter in The Boston (Mass.) Guardian. LITTLE AMERICA AVIATION and EXPLORATION CLUB LITTLE AMERICA ★ ANTARCTICA With Byrd at the South Pole by C.A. Abele Jr. President U.S.N.R. 40 SUNLIGHT! Loading wagonline on sledges for a tractor trip at Little America Loading gasoline on sledges for LITTLE AMERICA, ANTARCTIC CA, Aug 27 (via Mackay Ratio): My, my, what a lot of news this week! The blessed sun has returned. Admiral Byrd is recovering rapidly. I've had my first tractor rip in the Antarctic gloom and don't like it, gand I have developed a new game—parachute skiing. Some thrill, but only for those bent on suicide! More about that next time. Right on schedule, the sun returned to us on August 22 and we had a grand celebration over it with turkey and mince pie. Although the temperature was 60 below zero, a big group of us went out on skis to the top of a ridge on the Barrier, a mile from here, to give Old Soa a welcome. Gradually, just before noon, a pale grey light spread over everything, changing to a pink and yellow spot down by the horizon. And then, sure enough, up came a little corner of the sun itself—the first time we had gazed upon it for more than four months. Now, every day, the sun will pay us a longer and longer visit and finally remain with us 24 hours a day. What a difference that is going to make in our lives! Fifty-six men penned into a few little huts surrounded by dark snow, snow and howling winds can certainly get on each other's nerves I could write a book about that. When Dr. Poulter and his tractor party arrived at Admiral Bryd's last week one of their first messages to us said, "Please have trail clearly marked in crevasse area between Little America and Barrier and through Pressure Ridge." It was in this area that the tractor party became lost, narrowly escaped falling into a crevasse and the sledge with 1400 pounds of equipment was swallowed up so that it took the tractor crew five hours to get it out. Immediately upon receipt of the message Harold I. June of Darien, Conn., Bernard Skinner of Wintchrop, Me., Kenneth Rawson of Chicago, and I were ordered to get into trail clothes and take the reserve tractor out there for the purpose of marking the trail through this terrible area. We left at 11:30 a.m., following the faintly visible trail left by Dr. Poulter and his crew. Rawson had devised a new method of navigation of a tractor and we were all anxious to try out this idea because navigating from the driver's seat had proved too difficult and dangerous. If this new method proves as successful in future trines as it did on this one I shall have an interesting story to tell you and we shall have made a new contribution to the exploration science. We were towing Rawson on a sledge. He communicated with June in the driver's seat by means of two lights on the dash. Even for such a short trip we had to carry complete trail equipment of food, fuel, stoves, cookers, radio machines and so on because of the possibility of being caught in one of the blinding blizzards which descend without warning and make travel impossible After reaching the Pressure Ridge we disregarded any possible trail and navigated by compass We passed towering ridges of ice and detoured around impossible hummocks. It was weird and inspiring in the half light. The rough uneven surface looked gloomy and forbidding. We could gimpse the trail left by the other party, weaving in and out, retracing and sometimes even circling. It was evident they had been in difficulties several times and had wandered for miles trying to get through. We kept a sharp lookout for crevasses and narrowly avoided several. In the Pressure Ridge are areas of ice that have sunk to water level and other areas present ample, grotesque formations 50 and 60 feet high. By navigation we made 8 miles in one hour over the same terrain and under the same conditions that required 12 hours for the other tractor expedition. Our new method of navigating proved highly successful and I'll tell you all about it later. It was my first experience on the Antarctic trail in the darkness and it is something I shall remember all my life. Frankly, I don't like it. One has a constant feeling of danger and, again, it is not the soft, velvet darkness of more temperate climes but a heavy flat thick darkness that seems to bear you down oppressively. Now that the sun is here I am going to have wonderful things to tell the club members in these weekly stories. You know, there is no charge for membership in this club. All you have to do to get a membership card and a big free 20 x 27½ inch working map of Antarctica is to send me a clearly addressed, stamped envelope at the American headquarters.

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 G. 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 are among the states that have enacted 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 lynchings. 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. MOB8. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "personal injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall be defined as injury as perly or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such an assault occurred, five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v 162 8.) 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. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor or children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among such children in kinning to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action against such person, who is killed by such a mob (93 v. 162 6). Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to indemnify the person for the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a litching man may recover an amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. 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 disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11. Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1934. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 1294. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, house house-shop public conveyance by land or water, theater 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 twenty 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.

Bennett's early experience with Alexander Graham Bell's "toy" occurred while he was employed in the city's fire signal service before he became a telephone worker. It was a few years after Bell had presented his invention to the public for the first time at the Philadelphia Exposition of 1876, that a short telephone line was rigged up between two fire engine houses in Cleveland. "At best," Bennett says, "telephone communication then was a poor imitation of present-day service. "We could hear all right over the fire house line, but we had difficulty in getting the other party to answer. The hook-up was equipped only with receivers and when we wanted to use the line we signalled the other party with a telegraph key. There was no rinsing device in those days." Bennett's interest in the art of voice transmission led him to accept a job with the telephone company, which then was struggling to master what now are considered fundamental operating problems. He "shot trouble" on Cleveland's first long metallic circuit, which was strung from the downtown office of the tire hose terferer, trouble, still love" the idle few of comm eyes on SEE US FIRST FOR ALL GO JOHN S.

The new governor of the Philip- pines, Frank Murphy, decided not to appoint. the sultan to the Philippine senate. Although the sultan seldom took his seat, the honor had been ac- corded him since the time of Gov. Gen. Dwight F. Davis. “In real life the sultan of Sulu ts not the amusing semi-savage that George Ade put into comic opera three decades ago, but a decidedly modern ruler of the Sulu archipelago, which forms a series of oceanic stepping stones from the Philippine group to British North Borneo,” writes George M. Hanson, former United States con- sul at Sandakan, British North Bor- neo. “Although he partly acknowledged the temporal sovereignty of the Unit- ed States in 1899, and completely so in 1915, he retains some of the glam- or ascribed to him by the dramatist and remains locally a potentate to the native Sulus, or Moros. He formerly maintained ‘at Maimbung, on the southern coast of the island of Jolo, a two story frame ‘palace’ for himself and six smaller dwellings for his wives and retinue. In 1982 a storm wrecked most of the buildings. “Purely religious, his titlé connotes nothing more than leadership of the Mohammedan church within the lim- its of his sultanate, The sultan of Brunel, British Borneo, the recognized ‘royal highness’ in the greater part of the territory, is inclined to regard him as a poor relation who pays trib- ute to Brunet; but nevertheless he is a full-fledged sultan and has author- ity of a sort over perhaps 300 small islands and that part of British North Borneo with administrative headquar- ters at Sandakan. “In Borneo, as elsewhere, the Brit- fsh are good colonizers, They believe it 1s wiser to placate the Sulus on the Borneo side of the Sulu sultanate than to run risk of trouble; conse- quently they still pay tribute to the sultan and accord him military hon ‘ors on his visits to Sandakan. He 4s given a salute of guns when he comes to collect his annual tribute, ‘and is entertained for two weeks or more by British officials at Govern- ment house, Here he receives. local native chiefs and other notables. ‘Many Wives but No Children. “The sultan prides himselt on being an American, though his domestic ar- rangements have hardly been of a kind sanctioned in the United States. ‘Under the Koran he may have four wives at one time; and, since he has power to dismiss a wife or divorce her by waving his royal hand, the Umitation of number has not been irksome. It is sald that in his day he espoused many wives. He has no ehildren, however, and the Rajamuda, or heir’ apparent’ (muda is a Malay word meaning ‘unripe’), is his young- er brother. Although the 1915 treaty recognized him as the spiritual head of the Sula Mohammedans, its terms were such as will eventually cause Polygamy to be abandoned. “Matrimony 1s somewhat casual among the Sulus, and it Is not un- usual for girls of thirteen, twelve, or even eleven to be claimed as brides. When I was United States consul at Sandakan, I had an amusing experi- ence which impressed upon me the peculiarity of native marriage cus- toms. “Shortly before the sultan’s visit to Borneo that year, a German land- holder whom the British had ordered ‘out of the country for the duration of the World war requested me ‘o take charge of his rubber plantation near Sandakan, I agreed, since it was then my duty to take over representation ‘of German Interests, to go there on each pay day and check the accounts, Dut I declined to assume officin! con- trol of the plantation. Thus I became for a short time ‘master’ of the Malay ee eee neneent of a ets oa a my arrival on the first pay day, the accountant, x Singhalese from Ceylon, brought to my attention a plea from Alnus, the house boy, who needed an advance of $10, Singapore currency, for wedding expenses. Alus’ prospec- tive bride, the intermediary explained, was Canapa, daughter of Samat, the chief tnpper. ‘Canapa Was Too Young. “Canapa was rather a little girl, and, it seemed to me when her moth: er presented her for inspection, much too young to be thinking of ‘matri- mony. I decided a little delay would do no harm. Although the mother, herself only twenty-four, argued that Canapa was ‘Jong past eleven and ready to marry’, I announced kindly but firmly that no girl under twelve could be married without my special consent. “The mother asked if the wedding could take place when the girl was twelve, Not wishing to seem over- harsh, I assented, I even offered to take a photograph of the supplieants and to give them a print as balm for their disappointment. ‘They eagerly posed for the picture and went away Seemingly well pleased. “On my next visit to the planta- tion, I sent for Canapa and her moth- er and gave them a print of the pho- tograph I had taken of them two weeks earlier. They seemed very hap- Py, and the mother asked again if Capapa could be married when she was twelve. Again I sald yes, and told her to go ahead and prepare for the wedding, Alus also asked the same question, and I repeated my assur- ance to him. Canapa would be twelve at the full moon, which would occur, so he had learned from the account- ant, on Sunday of the next week. Entertaining the Sultan. “A week after this episode the sul- tan arrived and received official en- tertainment at government house. 1 could not let the British outdo me in showing him the courtesy due his posi- tion and Influence, and accordingly 1 invited him and his party to the con- sulate to tea. The guests Included the suitana, the rajamuda, the sultan's minister, and several datus, or chiefs. “L.offered them cigarettes and hand- ed the sultan « package labeled ‘Ezyp- tian Cigarettes, Turkish Tobacco.” He examined the package critically, and when he saw the hlerozlyphies he was delighted, Ezyptian cigarettes, he satd, were made by the ‘followers of the Faithful and not by Christian infidels. I did not disturb his sublime faith, though I could have told him that those elgarettes were machine made in North Carolina from tobacco grown in Asia Minor. ‘And So They Were Married. “while I was entertaining the. sul- tan at the consulate, It occurred to me that it would be a fine thing to have him perform the wedding cere- mony. ‘This would be an unexpected honor to Alus and Canapa and no doubt would prove highly gratifying to all concerned. The more I thought of the {dea the better I liked it. 1 ould have the yeung couple come ack with me to Sandakan on Satur- day, and invite the sultan to anoth- er tea, where he could smoke his fill of Turkish cigarettes made by the ‘Faithful’ in North Carolina, ‘The wed- ding of Alus the Bajao and the twelve- year-old Malay beauty, Canapa, would follow, The incident was all but closed. “When I went to the plantation the following Saturday, the full moon that regulated Malay birthdays for the month had waned perceptibly. The accountant met me as usual, but no smiling Alus stood in the doorway to greet me. “Where 1s Alus? I asked. * “He is here no more, He and Ca- napa live in the little house behind the rubber factory with Surinim, the Kaboon (gardener), and they went to Sandakan today in the hope of get- ting to see the sultan.’ “Living with Canapa? 1 muttered. ‘What do you mean? “«Phey were married at the full moon, a week azo, as the tuan had said, and he is at this house no more! “Married a week ago? Who married them? “shy you, Tuan; you married them.’ “{ married them! What are you driving at? “qt was the foll moon, Tuan, and Canapa was twelve. And so they were married, as the tuan had sald. They sleep in the house of the kaboon, who is Canapa's uncle, Is not the tuan pleased? “Then the whole thing suddenly dawned, The accountant was right, and all my paternalistic. plans for giving the house boy and his child- ish fiancee a wedding of regal pomp and circumstance had come to naught. “{ had married them, however, unin- tentionally, but none-the-less certain- ly. Because of my inexperience with native customs in affairs of the heart, I had spoken fateful words too casu ally. ‘The tuan had signified his con- sent and had fixed the time That was enough.” ‘THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0. SATURDAY, SEPT. 15, 1934 VELVET FOR FALL | | MORE RIBBONS a All the early fall Paris collections stress the importance of velvet. Spe cial emphasis is being placed on vel vet worn in a practical way. Young girls will wear about town swagger ¢onts of velvet with matching velvet berets. ‘There will also be many neat- ly tailored jacket suits of velvet, a fashion which will be sure to appeal to the college girl. An outstanding theme on the fall program is the sim- ple one-piece velvet dress of the type Mlustrated which will be found very useful the season through, since it can be worn quite informally during the day's activities. A rhinestone clip at the neckline with a wide matching bracelet provides the glittering note which characterizes most costumes in the new scheme of things. Blouses of Wool Net Will Be Seen in Fall Styles Biouses of wool net will be seen with some of our miost aristocratic sults this fall, and the new satiny woolen dinner gowns will employ wool net for sleeves and bodices, in elther matehing or contrasting colors. In a coarse mesh, the wool net will be used for sports blouses and such, and in a finer mesh, for formal clothes. It brings with it added favor for woo! lace, another innovation that will be seen around and about this coming season. ‘And for the height of elegance, you will see wool net evening gowns spangled with palllettes or glinting with highlights of metal threads. FLASHES FROM PARIS Dull amethyst 1s featured cotor. Velvet is outstanding in all col: lections. Elaborate algrette novelties trim the small hat. Much-to-be admired are the new changeable velvets. Cholr-boy robe Is inspiration for new formal coat lines. Evening dresses introduce neck- to-hem seam back and front. Many ornate crystal also gold buttons adorn the new modes. Paris Winter Styles Call for Feathers in Headgear Pocahontas had’ nothing on what fashionable ladies will wear during the coming winter season, according to previews of winter styles In Paris, Women will have feathers not in their hats, but literally in their heads. Snapped across the head on tortoise shell bands, some designers are fea- turing paradise feathers swirling across the cheek and under the chin, Other designers offer stiff ostrich pompoms or osprey feathers set, cor- fonet fashion, in hummingbird wings. SPLIT SKIRT SEEN IN FALL FASHIONS Seems Predominant Trend of Autumn Mode. ‘The split skirt seems to be one of the predominant trends of the ad- vance showings of fall fashions. ‘The split is used m both daytime and evening clothes, and is placed either at the side, the front or the back. Sometimes, as a matter of fact, it appears at both sides of the skirt. ‘There 1s a definite interest in back movement, many of the advance styles showing tunles that button up the back and skirts that are finished with either a cluster of pleats or a slit at the back. ‘Sometimes the slight skirt in evening fashions 1s accented by facing of a vivid contrasting color. ‘There's a tendency toward swish for evening skirts, as Inst season's trains have been pruned down to em- bryonle proportions, and now are rep- resented usually only by a back flare at the hemline, or by a sudden ripple of pleats, or by a slash. ‘Tunis are all over the place, both for daytime and evening, often flar- ing below the belt, and accenting thé straight slimness of the skirt. Some designers show a slightly longer skirt for daytime wear, and wothers leave the length unchanged, | MORE RIBBONS ages e 4 Nog . ™ ag | K eek whe Wieskeey Ban eo ee ea Wateh hair ribbons! Even the old- er girls are wearing them and with flattering results, It Is quite a fad to tie a wee ribbon about one’s muchly curled and waved tresses, as one lounges about the home in becoming negligee—also on the beach for con- venience. Growing girls, of the age of the little miss pictured or there- abouts are most prettily beribboned these days. ‘The dainty party frock of sprigged organdie which this charm- ing maiden is wearing, is set off to perfection with a girdle tie of pastel ribbon which Is generously bowed and streamered at the front. Little bows of ribbon on the puffed sleeves, too! ‘The styling of this party dress is so winsome, the thought occurs that it would be an excellent model to copy in wool challis for fall or in one of those very attractive washable rayon prints which are so practical for ehil- dren's wear. Attractive Beret to Be Made Welcome This Fall After the large hats worn this sum- mer, It will be nico to slip on an ate tractive little beret or a hat of the derby type with low round crown and barrow, curling brit. ‘Then, too, small hats of the tre corne type will no doubt be favored by the more mature woman, A nice tittle beret, on four-cornered lines, has a center of black satin and a deep border of tucked grosgrain rib- bon. ‘A delightful tricorne 1s in black felt with the cleverly stitched crown following the line of the brim, Across the crown is a trimming of chartreuse ‘and orange ribbon bands with pom- pons in these colors finished with Diack floss. FABRICS FOR FALL SUGGEST ELEGANCE Taffeta, Adorned With Metal Ste Pavcrels ‘The new silks for fall suggest the age of elegance, what with their lux: urlous surfaces, rich colors and un- usual weaves. Reflection of the new national op- timism may be seen In the clothes to be worn this fall—sumptuous, glitter: ing fabrics, gold and silver encrusted, cut on lines of simple swank. ‘Among the new silk fabrics to be used for street and formal dresses this fall, one of the most important fs the taffeta with a metal check oF stripe. A deep rust-colored taffeta, for instance, is cross-barred in gold, mak- Ing a stunning fabric for the dressy biouse or the dinner dress. ‘Then there is a new material called Taffacord, which looks like silk cor- duroy at ten paces, but which Is real- ly just a sleek ribbed crepe. It Is ef- fective In mocha brown. A slik that looks like sheer woolen, In a shell-like weave, is called shado- fleur, and is striking in bright green, either for sports frocks or for dinner gowns. It drapes beautifully, tailors swell, and has the dull surface that Jooxs like wool. STYLE NOTES And now comes noiseless taffeta. Blouses are in bright contrasting colors. Slits and slashes vary narrow straight skirts, Belted at front, loose at back, is new coat decree, Contrasting sleeves register in early fall frocks. Accent is on the fur-trimmed velvet suit with rich lame blouse. Velvet swagger coat with match- ing velvet beret 1s important for fall. Simplicity Smart clothes this fall will be gadgetless, Simplicity is the big noise, with clothes depending on fit and fab- rie for thelr distmetion. Lingerie touches at neck and cuff are out. Tailored Blouses Blouses are more important than ever this fall, both the tailored styles to wear with tweeds and the formal fashions for wear with dressmaker sults of velvet and broadcloth. -Qhio Exhibit Draws Praise From Fair-Goers L org : .

It is the cen- ter piece. The map Is divided inte 1002 squares about four inches on aside. At the side of the map Is an Index and a system of push: buttons. A persor can locate his or her home tovn, or any art, in dustrial or educational point in the state in the index, push the num- bered button, anu the square con: taining the point is Hluminated. Surrounding the map and high up on the walls are a series of oil paintings by William Mark Young. In ensemble they are titled, “The Dreams of Ohio Fioneers.” In the separate pictures they present a twofold view of the Ohio scene— the ambition of the pioneer and the realization of today. The pictures are: “The Pioneer's Dream,” “Ed- ucation,” “Farming,” “Grain,” "Cat- tle Ralsing,” “Manufacturing,” “Coal and Heat,” “Rall ‘Transpor- tation,” “Agriculture,” “Water ‘Lransportation,” “Electricity,” “ll,” “Pottery” and “Air ‘Trans- portation.” ‘The beauty of the paintings ean be contemplated in serene leisure from thirty-four settees built of native Ohio black walnut and cov- ered with hook rugs of distinctive design. Each of the settees car ries, in modest letter ng, a legend commemorative o: a historic Incl dent in the career of the state. The settees and the paintings are to have permanent home after the Century of Progress closes, in the public buildings of Ohio. Harking, back, and yet with a prophetic eye, the foreword to the Ohio exhibit reads: “Back of all progress in human affairs must lie semeone's dream— a constant and determined vision for the days and years ahead. “Without undue heroics as to her pioneers, Ohio takes pleasure in honoring the men and the women, who, through frugalities, hardships and frequent suffering, led early America onward, “May we of today face our prob- lems of the future with an equal fortitude.” ‘The Obio commission in addition to Governor White is Charles F.
