THE GAZETTE 10 Hair & Wash PRO-KIT Hair Wash Hair Wash ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since PLEASES GREATLY! A REMARKABLE STATEMENT THAT ALL OHIO ELECTORS SHOULD READ CAREFULLY. School-Aid—The Re-Organization of State Departments—The State Liquor Monopoly—Davey's Wierd Proposal. Hon. Clarence J. Brown, Republican candidate for governor, came to Cleveland, last Saturday, to address the City Club, largely an organization of "political technicians" who made it almost as interesting for him as he did for them when replying to their several questions. One of their first queries had relation to its outing of the local Board of Elections when Secretary of State, something demanded by the great majority of elections of this city and county, some years ago. In reply, Mr. Brown said: "I would rather open the school doors," he said, "than furnish thousands of needless political jobs in Columbus." Davey's Wierd Proposal. Mr. Brown characterized as "weird and amazing" the proposal of Martin L. Davey, Democratic candidate for governor, for a two-year moratorium on principal payments on the bonded indebtedness of municipalities and school districts. If the moratorium plan were adopted, the Legislature would continue to dodge the task of enacting a permanent finan- "My record speaks for itself. When many were deploring the situation in Cuyahoga County but doing nothing about it, I came here and cleaned out your Board of Elections. At that time I called for volunteers to assist in the work. Eleven of your public-spirited citizens responded to that call. Of the eleven seven asked for compensation and four worked for nothing. As I recalled, the genius of Mr. Vaughan made the inquiry not one of the four." **Asks About School Aid.** Another member of the audience asked Mr. Brown about his attitude on the question of granting state aid to parochial schools. "Here comes the bombshell," remarked Marcellus DeVaughan, president of the club. "I exploded that bombshell long ago." Mr. Brown said. "I have said that while I have the greatest respect for individuals or organizations endeavoring to advance education thru private or other institutions, I feel their efforts are private rather than public. Therefore I am opposed to the use of any public money or state funds for the benefit or aid of any private or parochial schools. I stand firmly on that statement. There has been no attempt by me to straddle this question or be on both sides." Mr. Brown also indicated opposition to the state liquor monopoly in sponse to another question, urging that a public to the state had enough money to go into the liquor business when private capital was able and willing to enter that business. The state had enough money for that and credit to purchase the stock, but no money for education. For "Reorganization." "It's a question how quickly a change could be made. The present administration has become so embroiled it would be difficult to do anything until there is some kind of a reorganization. It is peculiar to me that the state will not ask us most likely to sell liquor by the drink but no business man can be trusted to sell it in sealed containers." Asked what sort of a change he would propose, Mr. Brown said he would favor any change that would be for the public good. He was also asked where he would get the money with which to create a state school fund which should be established to guarantee every child in the state a minimum education, and replied that it would be impossible at this time to say what detailed plan of action would raise the money. "It might take an income, sales or gross receipts tax or a combination of all three. Undoubtedly new replacement revenue will be needed. The Legislature meets Nov. 19 to pass on this very question. It is impossible to suggest a program at this time because nobody knows just how much money would have to be raised. But there shall be no new form of taxation adopted with my consent, unless it is accompanied by drastic economies," he said. In his main address, Mr. Brown said that more than 30 new divisions of government had been created in the last four years of Democratic rule and that the number of persons on the state pay roll had increased from 10,200 to more than 20,000. He declared one of the principal issues in the campaign was to make the governor aware that to make an honest, conscientious effort to live within our income and eliminate waste and extravagance or whether to continue the building of this gigantic political organization." The government should be simplified and some of the new functions should be abolished in times of stress, Mr. Brown said. He also asserted the state "had thousands and millions of dollars for the every sort of government department but has been able to find the money to educate boys and girls and pay teachers." Would Open School Doors. "I would rather open the school house doors," he said, "than furnish thousands of needless political jobs in Columbia." DAVEN's Wierd Proposal. Davey's Wird Proposal. Mr. Davney characterized as "weird and amazing" the proposal of Martin L. Davney. Democratic candidate for governor on principal payments on the bonded indebtedness of municipalities and school districts. If the moratorium plan were adopted, the Legislature would continue to dodge the task of enacting a permanent financial program. He also said Davney's moratorium proposal was "a cowardly plan of repudiation to dodge responsibility." Referring to Davney's plan to submit to the people a bond issue of $100,000,000 for public works, Mr. Brown said: "I wonder where my distinguished opinion is to well $100,000,000 in bonds if the old bonds have been repudiated. I refuse to believe that there is a single problem facing the state of Ohio which could not be solved by application of the old-fashioned virtues of common honesty, common decency and common sense." THE AGEDS' NEEDS Being "Capitalized" by Ohio Democrats—Dirty Politics—Brown Uncovers It. Alliance, O.—"Building a gigantic political machine with public tax money is bad enough, but when the needs of aged men and women are capitalized for political purpose the name of selfish interest has been reached." Clarence J. Brown declared here today in an attack on Democratic administration of the state's Old Age Pension Law. "Why should an aged Ohio eligible for a pension be required to list political affiliation?" Mr. Brown asked. "Why is he required to name his religion and his color and race? I charge that the Democratic administration in Ohio is using the Division of Aid for the Aged to support the Democratic party. I denounce such tactics and declare for a clean sweep of politics from this department and the exercise of justice and common sense in the administration, I charge that the administrators of this law to cite a single reason as to why party affiliation fits or unfits an applicant for a pension. The mere fact that application blanks included the political, religious and racial questions proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that discrimination is being practiced. Sponsors of the old age pension law never intended the injection of politics or prejudice into its administration. They intended the pension law to be of benefit to all in need and not just to Democrats or Republicans, Protestants or Catholics, which must be recognized in this department. Not only must policies be eliminated, but the department must show more speed in deciding on applications for pensions. Ifficiency must give way to efficiency and this humanitarian division of government must serve the purpose for which it is intended. This is only one form of relief with justice. Ohio is entitled to more money than it has been getting from Washington and I intend demanding the state's full share of the benefits it demands by the political expediency of greater provision for solid Democratic states. I pledge that when I am governor Ohio will receive its full share of relief funds and that there will be proper and economical distribution. Relief funds are available to assist the needy and I intend that the needy receive this money. I do not include in the needy class the hundreds of unnecessary political employees that at the present time are boosting the administration payroll into millions of dollars a year. I believe that relief funds should be used to aid suffering mankind and not to forlorn the dead. A gigantic political machine has reached into almost every department of state and has been built at public cost. This machine will not be destroyed, nor economy in government practiced, until the builders and directors are commanded to step aside. That command will be given at the election November 6 and immediately after the first of the year the decentralization of this sinister device will get under way." ATTY. DAVID COPLAND! A Real Friend of the Race—Exceptionally Well Qualified for Service in the State Senate—Strongly Recommended. Now, perhaps, as before, the people of Ohio are legislatively conscious. Whether it is because of the deficiencies, delinquencies and cowardice displayed by the Democratic State Assembly or whether it is because of the serious dangers confronting the school-system and the failure of Ohio's Democratic state government to put into effect a permanent taxation program, matters little. The fact remains that now as never before the Legislature of Ohio added significant and importance to throughput of this reason, the electorate is interested, more than ever, in the caliber of men seeking seats in that august body. Cuyahoga County will elect six State Senators this year. No candidate stands out in bolder relief than Atty. David Copland. Exceptionally well qualified by training 307 1081 DAVID COPLAND and experience for legislative duties, and with the mature judgment necessary to help solve the vexing problems which will confront the State Assembly, this winter, Mr. Copland will be a tower of strength in the next State Senate, if elected as every indication now assures. He is well known for the many philanthropic and civic movements in which he has interested himself, and he has taken an active and enthusiastic part in the political welfare of Cleveland and Cuyahoga County for many years. Mr. Copland deserves the support of every voter who desires to see men of ability and integrity interest themselves in the affairs of our government. He is well and most favorably known as our people of his city for his keen insight and interest in our varied problems. Mr. Copland led the ticket, two years ago, with a substantial majority in all of our wards, will do so again, next month, and he elected The Gazette commends Mr. Copland's candidacy to all voters of this city and county in the strongest position. The Gazette only to vote for him on election day but to do all they can between now and that day to promote his success. WILBERFORCE.—The Federated Cosmopolitan Clubs of Ohio, an organization formed among college students to foster closer relationship between students of all nationalities, held a 2-day session in Wilberforce University, recently. Colleges in Ohio represented were Oberlin, Wittenberg, Akron, Dennison, Ohio State and Wilberforce. A fellowship dinner was given, Saturday evening, and a round table discussion with cers present, Bustamante, Ohio College; Virginia Hawley, see Ohio State College; Helen Chappell, southern district director, Wilberforce University. The spring convention will be held at Oberlin.—A beautiful wedding ceremony, Saturday evening, when Miss Julia Thomas and Mr. Ralph Turner of Cleveland were quietly married at her mother, Mrs. Julia Thomas' residence. Dr. H. H. Summers of Payne Theological Seminary officiated. The bride is a native of Tuskegee, Ala., where her father, the late Mr. Harry Thomas, was for thirty years head of the Mechanical and Engineering Department of Tuskegee Institute. The bride wore a beauless dress, trimmed in rope with shoes, match, and carried a bouquet of white roses. Mrs. Mara Owens of Cleveland (her sister) served as matron of honor, and Miss Martha Turner, sister of the groom, served as bride's maid. The groom is in the employ of the Triple Service Marketing Co., Cleveland. After congratulations, the newlyweds left for that city, to reside. DRESS The only Afro-American stenographer employed in Ohio's capitol when the Hon. Clarence J. Brown was Secretary of State (for six years) worked in Mr. Brown's office. Carl Jenkins, now of Wilberforce, was statistician in Mr. Brown's office. Six or seven other Afro-Americans (clerks) were also employed by him. A number of others were employed by Mr. Bown as automobile inspectors, etc. One of his pressmen in his newspaper plant at Blanchester is a member of the race. Harry C. Smith. CLARENCE J. BROWN Ohio—"The Ohio Examiner" and Its "Tissue of shoots"—Vote For Brown. The Next Governor of Ohio—"The Ohio Examiner" and Its "Tissue of Falsehoods"—Vote For Brown. FLEMING'S OHIO EXAMINER. One of the surest indications that a political party is in desperate straits is when it stoops in the gutter to gather its own mud and filth to cast it upon some opposing candidate in an effort to defeat him. Remember how the southern Democratic kluxers tried in vain to so plaster Senator Warren G. Harding in the closing weeks of the campaign which netted him, and the Republican party of the country the Presidency? Surely you have not forgotten that. Now comes "Fleming's Ohio Examiner," under date Oct. 13, 1934, published at Belle Center, O., a Ku Klux Klan publication, which announces it is issued in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, with a full page of K. K. K. mud and filth, which "outherds herod," in another contemptible effort to defeat the Hon. Clarence J. Brown, Republican candidate for governor of Ohio, at the election, Nov. 6, '34. It is absolutely the most miserably vicious "out-put" of the kind we have ever read. When Mr. Brown was in Cleveland, Saturday, Oct. 20, '34, while in conversation with the writer, he characterized Fleming's Ohio Ex- BROWN A SURE WINNER! Columbus, O.-As precinct polls and newspaper straw votes continued to show Clarence J. Brown, Republican nominee, in the lead in the contest for Ohio's governorship this week, political observers studying other statistics discerned additional indications that the Blanchester publisher will win the election. They pointed out that Brown carried 85 of the state's 88 counties in the Republican primary last August. His opponent carried only 57 of the 88 counties in the Democratic primary. A total of 624,124 votes were cast in the Republican primary and of these the Brown received 348,055. Thus Brown was the choice of more than 55 per cent of his party's voters casting votes in 608,283 votes were cast in the Democratic primary and of these the Democratic nominee received only 215,227. The Democratic candidate was a minority choice by reason of the fact that only 35 per cent of his party's voters favored him. Brown received 132,828 more primary votes than were cast for his Democratic rival. In the 1928 election when the president was defeated in the first bid for the governorship, he received 1,355,526 votes. Brown, running that year for secretary of state, was the choice of 73,010 more electors and won the election with a total of 1,428,536 votes. The only state-wide newspaper poll being conducted this year is that of the Columbus Dispatch. Brown has maintained a lead over the Democratic candidate every day of the several weeks during the primary vote have been published. The Cincinnati Times-Star is conducting a poll of Hamilton county in which Brown has been leading by 2 to 1. In 1930 and 1932 Hamilton county was carried by Gov. George White, Democrat. No Democratic candidate ever has been elected to the governorship without carrying Hamilton county. In addition to receiving the pulling strength of Brown in certain centers, the pre-election canvasses show that a large percentage of voters in rural sections prefer him over his opponent. --- 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 other state, ordinarily obtains its as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. PETER H. aminer Ku Klux Klan diatribe as "a tissue of malicious falsehoods." This is easily apparent to any intelligent reader who sees the sheet. Fleming, it seems, is a character fairly well known in central Ohio, and we are assured that one has only to look up his record to thoroly understand his paper's absolutely inexusable and unwarranted attack upon the Republican candidate for governor. In some respects, it is even worse than the one made upon Mr. Harding, years ago, and just as that attack netted the latter the Presidency, just so will the Examiner's, insure the triumphant election of Mr. Brown. In conclusion, it is only necessary to add, as far as our people are concerned, the truthful statement that Clarence J. Brown, when Secretary of State for three terms (six years), gave more clerkships in his office and positions elsewhere in that department, to Ohio Afro Americans than any other Secretary of State in the history of the state of Ohio. Therefore, none of our electors should fail to vote for Mr. Brown, Republican candidate for Governor, on election day, Nov. 6, 1934. LOWEST INCOME GROUP. Editor The News—Sir: Mr. Leyton E. Carter and his associates of Cleveland Housing, Inc., were consistent from the beginning to the end in telling the people of this community that provision for the lowest income group, meaning the residents (Italians, Jews and Colored people) of the Cedar-Central and other so-called slum areas, would not be made, but the lower income group (white) would be cared for. They claimed that it was impossible to provide the houses, as they had planned, at a rental low enough for the lowest income group. Henry Harap of Western Reserve university is quite right when he says "the re-housing in the Cedar-Central area will only create a new apartment housing section in a city which lives and wishes to live mostly in single and two-family houses." The Atlanta, Ga. university housing or re-housing project is providing for the lowest income group (Colored) meaning the residents of the so-called slum clearance area being improved. Harry C. Smith. COLUMBUS. — Fleming's, Ohio Examiner of Oct. 13, '14, 34 devoted its first page to a serious and contemptible attack on the Hon. Clarence J. Brown, Republican candidate for governor, that was clearly Democratic Ku Klux Klan propaganda. It is so clearly vicious, and for political purposes solely, that it is bound to prove a boomerang to the Democratic gubernatorial candidate. BLANCHAL home town, is a typical small Ohio city with a population of only 1,800, which like many others throut the state has no Afro-American residents. This writer has found no undue race prejudice there during his visits, and our people who live in Lebanon and Wilmington, near Blanchester, have no criticisms of the citizens of that little town, and only the highest praise for the Hon. Clarence J. Brown, its first citizen. Those of us who know him can assure all of us that he is a liberal position, as he has proven with deeds rather than words.—John H.

When the Hon. Charence J. Brown was Secretary of State he gave employment to more members of the race than are now employed in the entire Democratic state administration of Ohio. BROWN A WINNER Contrary to general opinion, the Republican electors of Ohio cast 676,699 votes at the recent primary to the Democrats' 657,920. So you see, instead of the Democrats casting between forty and fifty thousand more votes than the Republicans at the recent primary, as the daily papers stated at the time, the Republican majority is 18,779. In Cuyahoga county, the Democrats cast 111,019 votes to the Republicans 102,019. Their majority, therefore, in the county was 7,850. This is about a thousand less than the Democrats claimed immediately following the primary. So the outlook for the triumphant election of the Hon. Clarence J. Brown to the gubernatorial chair of Ohio is much better than immediately following the primaries. And his election will help the local ticket in this and many other counties of the state. DEMOCRATS VS. DEMOCRATS. Democrats whose advice has been rejected by those in charge of Democratic state headquarters openly are voicing condemnation of the refusal of Martin L. Davey, candidate for the governorship, to defend the record of Gov. George White's administration. Davey's attitude, they assert, is a confession that four year's of Democratic leadership in the statehouse is so lacking in merit that he fears to submit it to the voters for judgment. Having denounced the record of his party's two-term governor in his primary speeches, Davey now studiously refrains from mentioning what he described as its failures or crediting it with achievements claimed for it by followers of the governor. Seeking continuance of Democratic policies in the state government, Davey is failing to produce any reasons justifying further confidence in his party, his Democratic critics point out. Speakers assigned by Democratic headquarters to support the Davey candidacy have been instructed to "forget the record of the White administration." DAVEY WRONG AGAIN. Protests of the Ohio Welfare Conference against the promise of Martin L. Davey, Democratic candidate for governor, to take the state relief administration out of the hands of trained workers, are upheld by newspaper commentators. Typical of editorial observations rejecting Davey's proposal is that of The Youngstown Vindicator which remarked: "Martin Davey ought to realize that his campaign speeches advocating the abolition of scientific relief must be objectionable to thoughtful persons. They mean that he is for giving relief without investigation, relief administered by politicians instead of by traned social workers. Let this system be adopted and no one can tell how high the relief in Ohio will be. It will merely give strength to the movement now to other states, to deprive people on relief of the vote. This will be the country's only protection against politicians who are too liberal with other people's money." In addition to the moratorium on municipal and school bonds Davey the Democratic candidate proposes, if elected Governor, he will issue 50 to 100 million dollars worth of state bonds, the money to be spent on "public works" in Ohio. The two propositions don't hitch. If a moratorium on bonds is declared, who would buy the Davey public works bonds? A moratorium on bonds would destroy the credit of the state and make it impossible to sell bonds. With all of the "easy" government money, furnished by the taxpayers, floating around over Ohio and other states, we do not believe that the taxpayers will relish Davey's 10 million dollar additional burden. What the taxpayers need and must have, if they are to survive is a reduction in taxes, not more tax-load. BROWN AT THE CITY CLUB. The Hon. Clarace J. Brown, Republican nominee for governor, carried his program for the state of Ohio to the critical forum of the City Club of this city, last Saturday noon, and won a splendid victory. He reviewed the administrative and legislative steps which he considered necessary to "return the government of Ohio to an administration of common sense, common honesty and common decency." Pointing to the ever mounting cost of government and to the steadily increasing personnel in the state government, the Republican candidate declared that one of the first steps of bringing the government back to the people was to dispense with thousands of unnecessary jobs in useless bureaus and commissions. Since the turn of the century the cost of government in Ohio has increased approximately 1200 per cent, according to Mr. Brown who added that "neither the population of this state, the wealth of our people, nor their ability to pay, has increased in like proportions." "Ohio's government and many of the political sub-divisions thereunder are in a chaotic condition," the Republican candidate for governor continued. "There has been a total and utter disregard of the desires of the public in the operation of state government. "The insistent demand of the taxpayers for the practice of hard-headed economy in the operation of governmental affairs has fallen upon deaf ears and the cost of government has steadily increased over a period of years. "Tax burden has been added to tax burden!" The issues of this campaign, Mr. Brown said, are far more important than are personalities. He declared that there comes a time in the history of every government when the people of that government must choose for themselves the course which they will follow. Also that, this year it will be up to the voters to establish the governmental policy of the state—to decide whether they will proceed with an expensive and ever-growing government or whether they will reduce it to the essentials and eliminate the frills and fancies. "Today, situations confront our commonwealth that demand the attention of all thoughtful citizens," Mr. Brown said. "As we solve the problems of today or fail to solve them—as we meet the issues that confront us or fail to meet them—so shall we mark not only our own lives and times, but the future of a great American state as well." Prime Sport News Satchel Paige Steals the Show. Sunday afternoon, at League park, the Pittsburgh Crawfords, this year's champions of our National Baseball league, played the Rosenblums, amateur national champions, aided by Dizzy and Daffy Dean, Dolljack and Mihiel, national baseball league players. The score, 4 to 1 in favor of the Crawfords. Satchel Paige, ace pitcher (a right-hander) of the "City Kit" team, out the outstanding star of the game the tow the big drawing card. Twelve thousand people were in attendance, netting Dizzy and Daffy $3,000. Paige pitched six scoreless innings, striking out thirteen. His fast ball was too much even for the American League players as well as the amateurs that composed most of the Rosenblum outfit. The five "Rosie" batters, who managed to connect with the ball, were easy outs. Paige struck with the first six men to face him, nine of the first fifteen. The Crawfords got two runs off Lefty Hvisod in the first inning, another in the second, and added one to the fifth who pitched also the sixth and seventh. The Rosies scored in the eighth by bunching three of the four hits they got off Strong who pitched the last three innings for the Crawfords. The crowd cheered Paige lustily as being something of a superman, and he was surrounded by scores of autograph seekers on his way to the club-house after leaving the box. The Dean brothers put on clowning acts during their time on the field. Dizzy worked in right field until he took up pitching duties. Paige, the first batter to face him, doubled to center, and Charleson, the veteran player, drilled a single to left which scored Paige. When Dizzy went in to pitch (Paul) went to right first. His single to center seventh was the first hit off a Pittsburgh pitcher. When Paige came to bat the second time, imitating his laborious windup, Dizzy drilled a third strike down the middle to strike him out. There was a drizzle of rain most of the time. Bad as the Republican party may be, from a critical race viewpoint, the Democratic party is infinitely worse. The former's acts which are severely criticised mainly by the young and unsophisticated of the race are those of omission while the Democratic party's acts are those of commission. For instance, Dishra chiselment, nunching, wholesale segregation and denial of citizen-rights in the South. Subscribe Now THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.

BY DOC SCHNURMACHER HOLLYWOOD CAL. Gone forever are the days when a star court delay production and arrive on the set several hours late while cameras, players and camera crew trained impatiently as studio costs mounted, right production schedules exacting supervisors and studio efficiency have at last put an end to the prodigal spending so often associated with studios here. Whatever it does, hollywood never does anything by naives and the tense slogan 'keep the cameras grinding' is obeyed alike by great and near great, by star and by humble "grups." Today when the cameras grind, all concerned seem impervious to heat and inconvenience, even to pain, when accidents happen. "It is often a source of wonder to the 'layman how all concerned seem to ignore pain when mishap occur" states Dr E. A. Lindsay, prominent professional man here who has treated many in the movie colony Players seem so intent on their parts that when minor accidents do occur while the cameras are grinding, pain if any seems to be totally excluded from the minds of those involved, due perhaps to their mental concentration." It is on location, rather than in the studios that most of the minor unexpected mishaps occur and no matter where the production unit goes, a first aid kit goes along Frank Murphy, for example, vet eran property man of Flippy stuff studios has a first aid kit that has tra veled many thousands of miles. When the cameras grind on location in rough and tumble sequences the percentage of cuts, bruises and minor abrasions is apt to run high and the latest offerings of science to modern first aid, such as red nail polish, adhesive plasters, drybask adhesive plasters and bigdaid sand suede bands brought Some of the quaint charm of an eient Mexico is brought to visitors at the new World's Fair in the Mex ican village, which is strikingly pleasant in architectural design.

COOLIDGE WISDOM THE late Caivin Coolidge said "There is scarcely an economic ill array in our industry that cannot be traced to property or indirectly to high taxes. To increase that burden is to disregard the general welfare. Through constructive economy, to decrease taxes is to enlarge the reward or everyone who toils." This is just as true today as it was when he said it. PROFESSIONS OVERCROWDED MR. Clifford Fisk, president of the Lewis Hotel Training Schools, Washington, D.C., informs me that more and more are young men and women being trained for the hotel and institutional field, for this work offers opportunities unexcelled by those of any profession. Specialized training, both resumes and in this field where incomes range from $1800 to $5000 and upwards has become a preliminary to actual careers in much the same way that a young man or woman studies for dentistry, law or medicine. in proof of this Mr. Lewis points to United States Dept. of Labor statistics which show a gain in hotel employment of 5% in January, a gain in hotel employment of 10.4% for January, 1934 over January, 1933 among the hotels in the country. This places the hotel industry second in employment gain among non-manufacturing industries being exceeded only by coal mining which, of course, represents seasonal employment.

Home James and don't spare the gas. RAPIDLY KILLING THE GOOSE ALTHOUGH gasoline taxes are levied for the specific purpose of financing the construction, improvement and maintenance of high ways, many states have adopted the federal government's policy that must be followed for general purposes. Millions of dollars in gas line taxes, paid for roads, thus unjustly are diverted to miscellaneous projects unrelated to nighways. The aggregate gasoline tax in 1933 approximated Seven Hundred Million Dollars which represents an increase for this particular form of taxation of 7000 percent. This is in effect, a sales tax of more than 100 percent upon the wholesale and of roundly 40 percent upon the retail price of a necessary commodity. The political groups responsible for this enormous increase in gasoline taxes should bear in mind that a dead goose simply won't tay any more golden eggs. EXPENSIVE BOARDERS MORE than 150 years ago the Deci- paration of independence indicted George Ill because "he has erected a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat of our substance."

Assertions that the "New Deal" is not just a party issue, that certain phases of it threaten democracy in the United States and that business has no confidence in the present federal administration and is stagnated by a fear of inflation were made by State Senator L.

"If the New Deal were a party issue," Marshall said, "you wouldn't find so many prominent Democrats opposing many of its parts.

Prepared by National Geographic Society. Washington, D.C. WNW Services. Washington, D. C.-WSU Service. KOBABLY no people of Asia fought harder against the invaders in eastern customs than the Afghans. But many years ago few were the foreigners who crossed their borders and lived to tell the tale. In recent years, however, many visitors have given in print first-hand descriptions of the kingdom that reposes among the mountains northwest of India. In Asia, where headgear is a sign of rank or race, the Afghan has refused to "go high hat." To the Durani leaders and Shinwari tribesmen, the threat of parliamentary procedure was bad enough, for Afghanistan was more a mountain-sandwiched mass of aggressively independent tribes than a united nation. But edicts prescribing shorn beards, corock coats, and top hats were last straws on their tolerance of hasty centralization. They felt that a high-speed dawn from the west was a false dawn. And so they proved it. Amanullah—the Peace of God—fied after six years the turban remains, a sign that, even in Asia, haste makes waste. To induce European thoughts in Turkish heads, Mustapha Kemal Pasha tucked the Latin alphabet in below European hats. Anamullah hoped to accomplish even more radical changes. But the patient Afghan mountainer, a swaggering "he-man" if there ever was one, persisted in sticking to his broad turban or dressy astrakhan cap. And thereby hangs a tale. Afghanistan was long isolated by popo- political jealousy as Mecca and Lhasa are by prayer niche and prayer wheel. The Afghans cherished isolation as had their predecessors, the Parthians, who "held it as a maxim to accord no passage over their country to any stranger." In 1917 when a traveler rode south- ward from Merv, Kushka was the end of a blind alley. In 1921 when he went northwestward through the Khyber pass and faced that famous sign read- ing: "It Is Absolutely Forbidden to Cross This Border into Afghan Territory." there was a Gurkha guard to emphasize the "absolutely." Couldn't Hustle the East. By 1917 not only was Afghanistan open to visitors but current events speeded up. Before the end of that medieval year King Amanullah and Queen Souriya, monogamist rulers of a polygamous land, had boarded their first steamship and were at the threshold of western culture, its permanent values then reinforced by industrial activity and bull markets. The next six months were amazing. The vacationing rulers rode from triumph to trumph, enjoying such European thrills as few Europeans know because westerners have had decades to become accustomed to what the Afghan rulers personally encountered during a few weeks of western hospitality. Rome, Monte Carlo, Paris, Belgium, Switzerland, Berlin, Leipzig, London, Warsaw, Moscow, Ankara, Istanbul, Teheran—theirs was no commonplace trip. Nations hoping for commercial or political advantage outid one another in honoring these rulers of a newly opened buffer state between the native republics of Soviet Turkestan and that "No-man's Land," bristling with manhood, along which runs the long, strategic land frontier of the British empire. Across the northwest frontier, India's Chinese wall, many a conqueror entered Hindustan, treasure house of gold and jewels. The presence of poverty-striken and nomadic tribesmen so close to ill-guarded riches often proved disastrous to India. It is no wonder that the British ruler invited the Afghan king to be the first royal visitor ever to fly over London, and staged a mock battle for his benefit. A few months later this honored guest of modern Europe was driven from his palace in Kabul. Kipling wrote the epitaph of such. Ammanlah, like other enthusiasts, "tried to hustle the East." Of course, it is fantastic to suggest that the Afghanans overthrew their energetic king simply over a question of dress; because village girls were forced to attend school without the consent of their parents; or even because the consent of the bride was made obligatory for marriage. Economic and religious problems were involved, and the Afghan reformer perhaps lacked a knowledge of popular psychology. In emulating Mustapha Kemah Pasha, Amanullah failed to realize that the Turkish leader, by saving his country from division between foreign powers, developed a new-born nationalism, whereas Afghanistan was still divided against itself by snow-clad mountains and feudal customs under which tribal loyalty was more potent than patriotism. His Deceptive Welcome Home. Flattering contacts with western civilization had weakened Amanullah's judgment and the cordiality with which he was welcomed home was deceiving. Kabul was in festal array. Gendarmes in new red uniforms stood in rigid lines between bright triumphal arches. Afghan carpets by day and colored lanterns by night brightened the mud walls of the mountain-girl capital, which, like Bukhara, made an earthen flowerpot for colorful crowds. Tribesmen from the hills added their cocky costumes and loop-the-loop foot gear to the best dress of the citizens. In a carnival atmosphere, horse-racing and a theater with feminine roles were introduced to strait-laced keepers of the Faith. Microphones and loud-speakers were employed in addressing distinguished guests and foreign diplomats in a gay marquee, from which government students were sent merrily away for studies in Turkey. On a large wall map the itinerary of King Amanullah and Queen Souriya was traced. On each seat was a printed text of the foreign contracts and agreements which the leader of the new Afghanistan had signed—a striking case of political cards on the table, of open covenants in every chair. Films picturing the flattering European receptions for the Afghan royalty were shown. Evidently there were older bits, for the French professor who described this amazing period in Kabul life in 1923 complained that Parisian women were pictured in too large hats and too long skirts. Soon after the triumphal return of the prodigal king, opposition appeared. Conservatives resented the higher taxes which widespread reforms would entail. Mullahs and mosque attendants objected to having their government allowances stopped. The rapid tempo of modernization brought confusion and resentment, as did the change of religious holiday from Friday to Thursday. The fact that a foreign-style coat was made of honest Afghan cloth did not mollify the self-conscious tribal delegates, who retaliated by accusing Anamullah of being negligent about his prayers. When royal reforms threatened the tribal order, the Shiwaris rose in revolt. Scenes In Kabul. Present-day Kabul is as interesting for its scenes of native life as for its new political policies. In Kabul, hatters stuff cotton or paper into top and side welts of gaudy skullcaps, while tailors fashion equally flasy vests. Menders of chinaware or even of lemonade glasses bore tiny holes in the pieces and fasten them together with soft copper brads, hammered in. Shopkeepers sit amid their stock and scoop away a few dried peas or a bit of sugar or flour from neat cones of foodstuffs. Jewelers set large stones like rubles into wide silver bracelets with projecting points like those on dog collars. Caged birds hang at many a shop door and the proprietors play with their beady-eyed sons while awaiting customers. From one end of the town to the other there are the makers of Afghan sundaes. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1934. By CHERIE NICHOLAS THAT which intrigues most about the new coats is that the styling given them is so refreshingly versatile and unusual, so entirely departing from the rank-and-file. For the tail, the short, the slender and the stout, there is a coat stuited to every silhouette. Loose hanging-from-the-shoulder lines are as favored as are the svetle form-clinging effects. As to sports coats, generally speaking, they are divided into two types, the swagger sort, many belts across the front with loose flowing back, and the ulster. In regard to the swagger coat the newer versions are often seven-eighths long, whereas last season the three-quarter length prevailed. As to the new ulsters (mostly of strikingly handsome tweed or herring bone woolens) a distinguishing note is the big directorere which carries a most convincing style message. It is as smart for your cloth ulster to be unfurred as furred and vice versa. Big fur revers are very good style, as also are the new fur bib effects. Then, too, the separate fur caplet which is such a popular idea looks well with the cloth ulster. The newest separate fur neckpieces can be worn as a scarf or the ends brought around to the back and fastened, thus affording, to all appearance, an elaborate trim to the coat. Big news in regard to fur-trimmed coats is "the coat with a muff." All the leading coat departments are making a feature of this very practical and attractive idea. To strike the new note in coats, your fur collar must bend or flare well away from the throat. Which is a very practical comfortable thing for it to do, FORMAL NIGHTGOWNS MADE WITH TRAINS For several months Paris has been cabling news about the new formal nightgowns, but no one seems to have taken them seriously in America until very recently. Now it's gotten to the point where young things announce that their splendid new evening dresses are really nightgowns and were bought as such. There are some of these, however, which are unmistakably nightgowns and can't possibly be worn to the theater, but are still so formally lovely they will take your breath away. Many of them with trains and still more with jackets or long coats of their own. Lace is being used on them in profusion. Knitted Evening Mittens Will Keep Hands Warm Mittens for evening wear with formal gowns are predicted for this winter, especially if the thermometer drops zeroward. The mittens are designed to go over fine suede or glace gloves and may be either hand-knitted or of simulated hand-knitted wool. They may be richly colored like Czech peasant gloves or cream or yellow mercerized string. Knitted silk or cotton velvet in bright colors may be used for these mittens. A Red Outfit Red inserts at the waistline and a red yoke give character to a simple white crepe dress worn for daytime engagements. A large hat of navy blue linen completes the outfit. Aquarium Bracelets Aquarium bracelets are being worn by fashionable London women. They are made of thick glass with what appear to be tiny fish "swimming" in them. especially when one happens to be in a warm room. Another outstanding trend is the fur collar which ripples about the neckline. Summing up the situation fur collars are inclined to be rather fanciful and ornate on the new coats. A leading fashion is the gilet front which is fashioned of fur. You see the idea illustrated in the coat to the left in the picture. It is possible to buy these detachable fur gilets or vests separately. However, in this instance, the fur front is made part of the coat. The model pictured is especially noteworthy in that the astrakhan which forms the gilet and the cuffs is dyeed green to match the cloth it trims. Dyed fur is a favorite theme among those who are seeking, as most of us are, for new thrills. Quilted effects are also creating quite a little excitement, the idea being played up in all sorts of interesting ways. Looking at the coat centered in the group, one visions refreshingly new happenings in the way of cloth treatments. This handsome model is a French import, a Bruyere creation. Here the designer gives us a detachable shoulder cape made of the same gray cloth as the coat. The handsome wool coating has been quilted in a most decorative manner. In the model to the right of heavy black woolen we see something new for afternoon coats as launched by Schiaparelli. This noted French designer calls this triple-tier arrangement the parachute cape. It flares out very much in the back. The coachman-cape idea similar to this is frequently exploited on the new coat program. 20. Western Newspaper Union. A JACKET-BLOUSE By CHERIE NICHOLAS The newest, in the way of a blouse is a jacket-blouse. Every sort of material fashions the jacket blouse from silver and gold metal cloth to gingham. The jacket-blouse of bright velvetel is especially smart. So also are those fashioned of plaid woolen or taffeta. A new note in a plaid taffeta blouse and beret ensemble is struck in the model pictured. The vogue for metal-shot fabrics is emphasized in the gold and green printed taffeta which fashions this smartly up-to-date blouse and beret two-some. The wide attached scarf and gauntlet effect at the wrist are quite new. A parting word—be sure your blouse is of the modish jacket sort, whatever the material which fashions it may be—that point is up to you. Fair Sizes THE FIREMAN Smallest man in the world, guarded by tallest man in the world, visits smallest distillery bottling line in the world, a replica of the largest bottling line in the world. The first is Capt. Werner Ritter, 21 years old, 18 inches tall, weighing 19.4% pounds. His towering bodyguard is Capt. Gilbert Reichert, 19 years old, more than eight feet tall, weighing 265 pounds. The locale is the miniature bottling line in the Hiram Walker Exhibit at A Century of Progress. The midgut had difficulty in holding the miniature souvenir bottle aloft long enough for the camera man to catch the picture. Then he took it home to his pint-size sweetheart in the Midget Village.

C., and shows the Phoenician alphabet in the form it was borrowed by the Greeks, and we in turn received it from the Romans. 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. The constitution and New Jersey have forged a connection between enacted mob violence of anti-lynching laws 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. 6278. "Serious injury" defined. 6290. Damages in case of assault. 6291. Damages in case of lynching. 6292. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6293. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6294. Limitations of action. 6295. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6296. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6297. County's right of action against member of mob. 6298. County's right of action against another county. 6299. Non-relief from prosecution. 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 "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor.

A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars, 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 5.) Section 6282.

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, there be received from the children receiving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next, of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate.

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 as one purposely injured or 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 include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such New Fair Midway Thrill 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 the fund, in 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.)

(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 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper of house, or an in- restaurant eating house, barber-shop, 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 fines not less than fifty dollars nor more than fifty 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 bylaw is our people will not use it as offence they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.
