The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The mistake one of its photographers led it into when that puppet-show was put on recently at St. Clair school has been thorny atoned for in the last ten days by The Cleveland News whose group publications show that that paper does not indorse the fool-action of that photographer who may and may not still be in its employ. Councilman Finkle and Ward Leader Alex. Bernstein held open house at their 12th Ward headquarters in Woodland Ave., Monday. They had secured a day or two days' work, last week, for about 200 of their ward workers at $4.40 a day as a Xmas gift. This was certainly greatly appreciated. Two or three weeks ago, Payne's 12th Ward job-holders were ordered to give a day's labor or $2 (cash) to the P. W. A. His Ward 11 headquarters are in the P. W. A. annex. Quite a (ward) contrast, isn't it? If Director Bernie Bernstein's terms are agreeable, both Ethel Waters and Jimmy Lunceford's band will be at the Cotton Club, Jan. 15. Etta Moten and the Three Brown Spots from Sissel's band are to be there, New Year's eve. Those who have not visited the Cotton Club have made a great mistake. It is a beautiful place, with the best of music, floor-shows, dance-floors, food, wet goods and everything. Its management could not be improved upon. Director Bernie Bernstein and Manager Footes Mitchell see to that. They are thorny experienced. "MINISTERS AND POLITICS." Ministers Used by Cheap Politicians Says the Pastor of One of Our Local Churches. In his address to St. James forum, last last Sunday afternoon, Rev. Horace White of Mt. Zion Cong, church, said speaking on "Negro Ministers and Politics." "For years the Negro minister has allowed himself to hew by cheap politicians, both white and colored, for the exploitation of his people," Rev. White said. "The Negro" vote has been delivered as the politician wants it delivered and not only have Negro interests been ignored—they have been conspicuously miss-served. "The Negro minister, because he has the largest organized group of his people in his care, has great potential power to serve the real interests of his people. I believe he has not used his potential power but has permitted its use by others for sale. I believe it is time that Negro ministers realize their powers and their duties." The forum voted to send telegrams of praise to the governor of Tennessee, the sheriff at Shelbyville, Tenn., and the commanding officer of the militia who averted a lynching at Shelbyville by *Sring* on a mob. A Xmas musicale was given by Antioch's senior choir at the church, Sunday evening. Among the participants as soloists are the Misses Myrtle Wiggins, Irma Riggs, Hattie Lee and *Dorothy Smith*.

Tylan, Stuart and Co. City. Dear Mr. Strong:—Your letter of Dec. 15, '34, received promptly. I am moved to write you at this time particularly because we have received from the Hon. Chester K. Gillespie, attorney, and member of the Ohio Legislature, a copy of a petition he has filed in Municipal Court, asking $500 damages from the Wm. Taylor, Son and Company, for a Mrs. Cleota Collins Lacy of 8116 Cedar Ave, head of the Lacy School of Music. E. 40th Street, an exceptionally talented vocalist and a very fine woman. The petition alleges that Mrs. Laey, daughter of Rev. Dr. Ira A. Collins (deceased), was refused service in your company's restaurant "on or about Dec. 12, '34" in the after-noon. This unfortunate incident causes me to recall an experience Atty. Wm. R. Green, since deceased, had in the Taylor Company store, some years ago. If memory serves me correctly, you were absent from the store, as the result of illness or on a vacation, in the South. I learned this from an employee who came to my office at the time to bring me a fur overcoat. I was told that the store and had in storage there. Mr. Green went into the store to purchase a hat. Whoever waited on him was willing to sell him the hat but refused to permit him to try it on. On several different occasions, immediately after the untoward incident referred to, I urged Mr. Green to see Mrs. Taylor (in your absence), telling him that I felt sure that she would not tolerate anything of that kind. It seems to me that the manager, in your absence, was from the company, with the employees of the store, according to the young man who delivered my coat. I have heard other complaints of mistreatment in the Taylor store. You have many employees. My experience is that off-times they work in things which the management would not permit. This I believe is most often the case, and may have been true in instances at the Taylor store. Cleveland, Dec. 22, '34. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, City. My dear Mr. Smith:—Your letter of Dec. 19 was anticipated by me, since I was informed about the circumstances regarding the legal action sought by Lacy. Another gentleman of your group had previously come for an explanation of the matter, and in his conversation he pointed out that there is a general impression that the Taylor Store has gone "high hat," to use a popular expression, since our recent extensive remodelling program was completed. Nothing is farther from the truth. The policies and principles upon which this store was founded have and shall prevail as long as this institution bears the Taylor name. In this connection a quotation from our established policies, printed in orders to executives may serve since you can our attitude matters such as referred to in your letter: "Prejudice or favoritism of religion, race or politics will not be tolerated in the Taylor Store." This is our official policy—we administer it, as well as the numerous others that govern the conduct of our business, to the best of our ability. General Manager, The Wm. Taylor, Son & Co.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS UDICE! S EDUCATIONAL STEADILY LOSING GROUND INTER-RACIAL LINES. oldred Years Ago on the Basis of the on of the Races and Sexes. INSTITUTION STEADILY LOSING GROUND ALONG INTER-RACIAL LINES. Founded One Hundred Years Ago on the Basis of the Co-Education of the Races and Sexes. --- In the December issue of the Crisis Magazine Caroline W. Thomason writes engagingly upon "Prejudice Invades Oberlin". She recounts the golden age when Oberlin was founded one hundred years ago on the basis of the co-education of the races and sexes with no discrimination against either. For fully a half century she recounts the development (deal of its founders). But since that time it has been veering towards the modern tendency to handle our people with the back part of the left hand. She recites numerous instances to show that this great human rights college is bowing to the Baal of modern day narrowness and bigotry. Let us keep always in mind that Oberlin was founded on the crest of the wave of missionary enthusiasm for the forgotten and neglected man. We look back over a hundred years and won the battle of the university which was then sweeping certain elements of the nation as a wild fire. In the wake of this movement Berea College was founded in the mountains of Kentucky and dedicated to the co-education of the races. Emerson says our virtues come in moments; our vices are habitual. Those who were caught up for the moment on the Mount of Transiguration could not build there a permanent Tarnabach, but must anon descend and mingle with the grosser affairs of life. The zeal and enthusiasm of the hundred years ago did well to survive for a half generation. Oberlin has gravitated to the lower level of her sister colleges on the race question, while local prejudice has wiped out Berea College as an institution for the co-education of the races. We may deplore retrograde tendency in these degenerate days but we do well to understand, while we deplore. The example of Oberlin and Berea will illustrate the retrograde tendency of the age in which we are living. The Age has given way to the age of gold. Some years ago I was invited by President King to be the guest of Ob FRONTIER DISPUTE GROWING SERIOUS. Ethiopia (Abyssinia), in Note to League, Renews Charge of Italian Aggression. Geneva, Switzerland. The dispute between Italy and Ethiopia (Abyssinia) over responsibility for clashes between their garrisons on the frontier between Ethiopia and Italian Somaliland has assumed increasingly warring proportions. Imperator Halle the League of Nations has mounted the League of Nations a second communication, reiterating charges of "Italian aggression" and accusing Italy of illegal occupation of Ethiopian territory. The protest charged that Italian troops stationed at Ualual, near the border, opened fire on an Ethiopian detachment without provocation. The attack, it said, menaced members of an international boundary commission and brot forth a protest from the British commission, Ethiopian reports said 15 Ethiopians and 11 Ethiopians were killed or injured in the encounter. Rome, of course, blamed the Ethiopians for inciting the attack. The protest to the League accused an Italian army officer of giving the signal for an attack by a blast of his whistle. "Suddenly," it said, "airplanes dropped bombs and a tank fired machine guns. The Ethiopian machine guns were still under cover and not under attack, the officers soldiers with the exception of sentries were in their tents." Two clashes between Italian and Ethiopian border forces along the undefined frontier between Ethiopia and Italian Somalia and have been the subject of controversy during the past two months. The first encounter, which the Italian commal guard was killed and two injured brot representations from Rome and a demand for indemnities and apologies. The government of Emperor Haile Selassie complied. II Duce Answers Ethiopian Protest! Rome, Italy.—Benito Mussolini, acting as foreign minister, charges that the Ethiopian government has "violated treaties between Ethiopia, Italy and the covenant of the League of Nations." He addressed this allegation in a communique to the leaders in living with Ethiopia, protest also addressed to Geneva. Il duce insists on reparation for the battle early this month at Ualual, Ethiopian - Italian Somaliland, and 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 compiled with any written history, thereby one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. 1 erlin College and to be the guest-speaker at their chapel assemblage. I was entertained at a luncheon given by the faculty at which there were several toasts upon the spirit of the old Oberlin and the new. Faculty members pointed out that the institution was endeavoring as best it could under distracting influences to maintain the spirit of the founders but found it practically impossible to do so in face of present day conditions with which they had to deal. Students were coming to them from all parts of the country bringing their local attitudes and prejudices. They were trying to baptize them as best they could in spirit and tradition of the old Oberlin. But in spite of themselves the college was moving迅速 from the old landmark toward present day ways. The dean of women told me that she could place only two of our girls in each dormitory, and was able to do this only because of immemorial traditions of the institution that effect. They were then deleting the question of establishing a separate dormitory for our girls as being the only feasible plan by which they could handle any considerable number of them. In my response I stated that we at Howard University were very anxious to have Oberlin stand by the ancient landmarks; for Howard was largely an off-spring of Oberlin and sought closely to imitate the parent in all right directions. I cited the instance of the farmer who wishing to make a straight furrow across his field, fixed his sight on a cow on the other side, not being moving. On reaching the other side of the field and looking back upon his furrow he found that he had made a parabola instead of a straight line. This I feared would be the fate of Howard unless our prototype stood by the ancient foundation. Kelly Miller. says his government would not discuss the question of the demarkation of the frontier until satisfaction had been given for "the flagrant aggressions of the Ethiopian-government." THE "EMPIRE" CLOSED! The Savings and Loan Company, Like All the Others, Has Struggled Along Thru the Economic Depression. Last week seven Cleveland savings and loan associations were closed and placed in direct state liquidation by the state superintendent of the building and loan devision of the Ohio Department of Commerce who insisted that the companies were in such "unsound financial shape as to prohibit further business." The Empire Savings and Loan Co. was among the number. It is charged that no cash relief has been afforded depositors of the closed institutions for some time. No criminality is involved. Empire Savings & Loan (total assets and liabilities $301,191): "No interest or payments, being made to depositors. Appraisal losses on real, $33,000. Taxes due and payable on office building and other real estate average 31 months delinquent in interest. Diminishing income insufficient to meet interest on borrowed money and other current expenses." Woollen Plant Beset by Strikes. Boston, Mass.-Directors of Hamilton Woollen Co. of Southbridge, last week Wednesday, voted to recommend liquidation of the $1,500,000 company in consequence of labor troubles. The decision means 1,000 workers, or a fifth of the working population of Southbridge and neighboring towns, must seek employment elsewhere. The mill recently was declared "permanently closed, owing to labor troubles." There have been three strikes at the mill since last summer.

SATURDAY, DEC. 29, 1934. Happy New Year, To All! FATHER COUGHLIN. Father Coughlin of Detroit, “the radio priest,” is again delivering some very interesting talks over the radio which are concerned with eco- nomic issues. We suggest that our readers “listen in," occasionally at least, but caution them against join- ing his new movement or any other led by him. We are not concerned in the least with the fact that Father Coughlin happens to be Catholic. Our advice would be the same if a popu- lar Protestant minister or rabbi should take to the air. Experience has shown that a churchman in poli- ties is invariably a danger. His ap- proach to economic issues is apt to be emotional rather than scientific. The followers of such a political leader, looking for another Messianic age, will inevitably find themselves sus- pended in mid-air. That is exactly where we believe Rev. Coughlin’s supporters will ultimately discover themselves to be. —illi—— COMMON PROBLEMS. — - Speaking before a Sunday School class at the Temple-on-the Heights, Dec. 23, Assistaut City Law Director Charles W. White delivered an inter- esting address on the subject of dis- crimination as both Afro-Americans and Jews must meet it in this coun- try. It is interesting to record on this subject that Jewish medical stu- dents are now attending our Howard University in considerable numbers, and the relations there between the students are entirely friendly. How- ever, both our people and the Jews must look with misgiving at a grow. ing proscription that increases the tendency of educational authorities in high places to build up new ghet- tos rather than to destroy those al- ready erected. Many northern col- leges and universities limit to six or seven the number of Jewish stu- dents in their medical departments. ‘The way to meet the growing race proscription is not to accept with equanimity the pressure being exert- ed, but to strike out in opposition. ‘This means—and we cannot repeat it too ‘often—that Afro-Americans, Jews, foreigners of every description, organized labor, and honest liberal and radical intellectuals must get to- gether, It is neither our people nor the Jews who are destined to lead the battle, Labor, benighted and prejudiced as it is today, possesses the numbers and the potential power to give battle to the enemies of civ- ilization, It is labor which must point out that race proscription throws workers of all classes or races into slavery, Afro-Americans and Jews, however, getting acquainted with their common difficulties, can throw approximately thirteen million people into the struggle against a tiny minority of designing, power- ful and determined enemies of Amer- ican civilization, The Gazette sug- gests that more of our leading men and women take advantage of every opportunity to acquaint citizens of other classes or races with our peo- ple’s specific problems, The returns will be greatest where young people especially are reached and aroused. OUR OWN HOME. Refusing to recognize the fact that the World War is over and that a naturally resultant economic de- pression is on, worse than at any time during its five or six years’ ex- fstence, large office-bullding owners ‘and managers in the businoss section of the city, following the lead of the jarge apartment-house owners and managers In the resident sections of Cleveland, have raised rents twenty per cent of more in recent weeks. ‘That explains wy The Gazette, for the first-time in more than fifty ‘years, will office, Deginning next week, in what ts generally referred te as the “uptown” section of Cleve- jand, something it should have done ight or ten years ago and as & re uit waved between $2,500 and $3,000 rent paid in that period of time. “The Old Reliable” will move into its own home and stop paying rent, something more than an asset in these economic depression days. We absolutely refuse to be “held up and sand-bagged” out of higher office- rent, simply because the building gwners’ and managers’ association of the city of Cleveland decided re- cently that their tenants able, should do so. Nearly all of their buildings are from one-half to two-thirds emp- ty, and with tenants that are paying anything but regularly, and yet in the face of this, and the economic depression, they have the nerve to increase rents. Passing strange, that the daily newspapers of Cleve- land have had little or nothing to say of this. Hereafter, the address of “The Old Reliable” Gazette will be 2322 E. 30th St, Cleveland, 0., not far uptown; reached by three thru street-car lines and within a stone's throw of the stop at Central Ave., on the E, 30th St. cross-town line; less than three minutes’ walk from the same car-line stop at Sco- vill Ave. Come in and seo us, This is a special invitation to those who are indebted to The Gazette. oe Gadi GGT BUR eon ‘The two lawsuits filed against Eu- elid Beach Park officials who were charged with discriminating against our children have been won by Attys. Chester K. Gillespie and Clayborne George, in behalf of Elmer Brannan and Val King, local public-school stu- dents. On June 4, 1934, they se- cured park tickets from their prin- cipals which entitled them, among other things, to enter the dance-hall at the beach, When these two high- school boys attempted to enter the dance-hall, the gatekeeper curtly told them that they could not enter because it was the policy of the park “not to permit colored children to dance”, and that this had been the policy for many years, The lads’ suits Were instituted in the Munici- pal Court of this city, asking for damages in the sum of five hundred dollars, as provided in the law. It was claimed and proved that the beach wilfully violated Hon. Harry €. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law, Section 12940 of the General Gode of Ohio, which prohibits discrimina- tion on the basis of race or color in all public places of entertainment, accommodation,. ete. On Dec. 7,, both of these cases were settled out of court for a substantial amount, which was a MISTAKE, to say the least. The eases should have been prosecuted in court to the bitter end. Then the result thoroly advertised in our local daily newspapers, thus ben- efitting ALL of our people in this community to the fullest extent. This publicity is always absolutely neces- sary. The rotten policy of refusing our children and adults the use of that dance-hall and skating rink has been permitted by our people of this community to stand entirely too long and is well-known generally thruout the city. Rumor has it that the park authorities are refusing to abolish its discriminatory policy. If true, our three councilmen, “The Twelvetree Trio,” Messrs. Payne, Bundy and Hubbard, should take up the matter with Mayor Harry L. Davis, at once, and have it settled right immediate- ly, An order from the mayor will make Park Director Kurzdiel and his department “see the light”, pronto. An inter-racial group should visit Euclid Beach Park dance-hall and skating rink at an early date and thug ascertain how much truth there is in the rumor referred to.

We are pri- marily concerned with fur- nishing the best possible tele- phone service at the lowest possible cost. We believe there is no conflict hetween our aim and the aim of the... . Com- mission.” Mr. Gifford deserves praise. In passing, it may be said his statement is typical of public utterances of A. T. & T. exe- cutives. It is largely because of this enlightened viewpoint that the Bell System enjoys an enviable good will. Less adroit executives of the many less popular utilities might well emulate this attitude. . memben Rheumatic Cure Bobby Di ib ion ing iscovered by tng Government pe Physician Se ae ee cr siclan ‘ot the Old Soldiers’ Home at .

However, it was agreed by the bike rider that children should be taught how to ride and should be familiar with traffic rules, They praised the Three-In-One Safety League for the work it has done in promoting safety for bicycle rid- ers through its membership in all parts of the United States. The lea- gue now has more than 100,000 members. Bobby Walthour, one of the in- ternational riding stars, in accept- ing honorary membership in the Safety Leugue, said he believed that Gasehsl cbeerenice wt the CIENCE has given man a voice mightier than the stentorian roar of Thor, ancient God of ‘Thunder. A new loudspeaker, recently ide- veloped by the Bell Telephone Lab- oratories, research unit of the Bell System, is capable of magnifying the human voice a million times, and is 500 times more powerful than the ordinary loudspeaker now being used in public address systems. ‘Over flat terrain, in still air, it can project intelligible speech a distance ‘of several miles, The voice can be made louder than a clap of thunder. Measured at the loudspeaker's mouth, sound is about 1,000 times louder than the roar at the foot of Niagara Falis. Winners of Walter Camp Gold Footballs Historic All-America Team Appears Again Outdoes Roar of Thunder CED eee ee in ee YS ee rules of the road by bicycle riders eliminated practically all hazards in this sport. “{ am heartily in favor of the ‘Three-In-One Safety League's cam- paign to promote safety for chil- dren who ride bicycles. Although there is a constant hazard in my branch of bicycling—racing—even in this sport we must follow the rules of the road and respect the rights of other riders. I believe children should be encouraged to consider bicycling an art and to ride properly.” ‘The Three-In-One Safety League gets its name from the three C's which stand for Caution, Courtesy and Cooperation. Its membership is open to all children in America be tween the ages of 6 and 16, who may enroll through ther local ha piwane. we mnertinn pearle deuler: The new speaker not only carries over distance beyond the.reach of existing loudspeakers but will pene- trate a din which would drown out the most powerful equipment here- tofore available. Use is foreseen for the new speaker in directing throngs of people either too vast or in presence of too much noise for the ordinary loudspeaker to be heard. Fire fighters within burning buildings, deafened by the crackle of flames, could be directed by the giant voice. A rescuing vessel at sea could bellow instructions to distressed crew or to persons in life- boats. In place of the fog horn’s sim- ple warning the loudspeaker could give spoken directions. Worth ‘irying ror OHIO’S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANV'I-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY . IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION SS eee 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 Onio ogisiature in 1894 and re-iftroduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Sinith, editor of The Gazette, Just three years to secure its enactment into ‘aw. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitu- ‘tionality of the law and it has been very effective. IVinols, Pennsylvania ind New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or inti-lynehing laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other north- trn states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted intt-lynehing laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: Moss. ° Section 6278, “Mob” and “lynching” defined 6279. “Serious injury” defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 5282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 8285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, ete., tees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. Ree ee ee ee a nae Section 6278. A collection of peo ple assembled for an unlawful pur- pose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over oth- er persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a “mob” for the purpose of this chap- ter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall conati- tute a “lynching” within the mean- ing of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term “serious injury,” for the purpose of this chap- ter, shall Include such injury as per- manently 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, mis- siles 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 as- sault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars: or, if the in- jury recetved therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dol- lars; or, if such injury result in per- manent’ disability, to earn a livell- hood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars, (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282. The legal represen- tative, of a person dying from injur- ies received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars dam- ages for such unlawful Killing. Such sum shall be applied to the mainten- ance 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, sare and share alike, the widow re- ceiving an amount equal to a child’s share. If there be no widow or min- or children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distritnted among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recov- ered 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 attempt- ing to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representa- tives shall have a like rigit of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 y. 162 6.) Seetion 6284. Action for the re- coveries provided for in this chap- ter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynch- ing, in any court having original Jurisdiction of an action for dam- ages for malicious assault. (93 ¥. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to in- clude it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judg- ment in every such ease, (92 v. 162 Section 6286. If the decedent 90 lynched has minor children surviv- ing him, the fund shall be turned over to @ regularly appointed guar- dian. Such guardian shall adminis- ter such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for coun- sel fees in the action for such recov- ery. (98 v, 162 9.) Section 6287.° The county, in which a lynching oceurs, may recov- er the 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 « member of the mob and be liable to such action, (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries « prisoner into another county, oF Rr. comes from another county to com- mit 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 negli- gence on the part of officials of euch county in failing to protect such pris- ouer or dispurse such mob. (93 ¥. 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 edi- tor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894, ‘The General Code of Obio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, betng the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barbershop, publi conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public aceommoda- tion and amusement, denies to a citi- zen, except for reasons applicable alike to all eftizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not lees than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941.

Don't Throw Away Your Copy of The GAZETTE After Reading It But Give it to a Friend or an Acquaintance who might Subscribe After Seeing It Tangier and Gibraltar The Grape Market of Tangier. Premier, National Glyphic Society, Waltham, MA FEW cases of bubonic phage, which has soidum appeared in late years west of Suez, recently were found in Tangier, the international settlement on the south side of the Strait of Gibraltar in Africa. Modern medicine has stepped in to thwart this once dread disease, and the entire population must be vaccinated. Although Tangier has nurtured its old traditions for centuries, modern resort builders have, from time to time, during recent years, brought it forward as a prospective playground for European vacationists. In the shadow of venerable mosques and minarets and keyhole-like Moorish archways, they would build modern hotels, bath houses and casino that would rival the Riviera and vie with Monte Carlo. Tangier is but a few hours' ferry ride from the Rock of Gibraltar. For many centuries it has occupied a reserved seat on the Strait of Gibraltar, in full view of the parade of commerce to and from Mediterranean ports, but today its unimproved harbor does not permit docking of the larger ocean-going vessels. From the anchorage, Tangier resembles a white sheet spread from the seashore up the African slopes. The spotless white walls, glistening in the sunlight, suggest that "clean-up, paint-up week" is perpetually observed there and that the city fathers will allow nothing but white paint or whitewash to be used. As one nears the shore, however, dashes of yellow, green and red mark the encroachment of modern builders. Once inside the city walls the traveler is bewildered by the maze of lanes which the Tangierians call their streets. So narrow are they that wheeled vehicles have never rumbled over the cobbles and pedestrians are compelled to jump into doorways to avoid being side-swiped or trampled upon by huge, moth-eaten camels and donkeys, whose bulging loads spread nearly from wall to wall. Coffee Houses and Beggars. In the business section coffee houses offer the principal Tangier recreation. Patrons sit in groups on the floor, playing with odd-marked cards, or lean against the walls sipping a beverage, smoking their pipes, and sometimes singing to the tune of a native orchestra. Next door an unkempt shopkeeper, seemingly more interested in keeping his long-stemmed pipe lighted than in making a sale, presides over a cupboard-like shop displaying pottery, brassware and frinkets. Beggars are more importunate. They beg for alms and often follow a "prospect" until he yields a coin. Shouts of camel men and street vendors and clatter of pedestrians make a monotonous din, broken occasionally by the weird strains of a "holy" orchestra composed of dervies who parade about the streets with Moslem banners, begging contributions for the mosque. An American's description of a Tangier residential district would be "more narrow winding lanes hemmed in by high white walls." The walls are blank except for doorways leading into courts. Most travelers agree that a visit to the large market, lying just outside of the city wall, is well worth a trip to Tangier. There city folk mingle with the rural folk from the fertile regions in the vicinity. Men, women and children, cannels, horses, donkeys, dogs and fowl, all are huddled together in the dust anid piles of oranges, baskets of eggs, casks of olives and improvised stands for nuts, dates, candles, kitchen utensils and homemade shoes. The country women wear broad-brimmed straw hats. The Moslems wear kerchiefs, half covering their faces. Around the edge of the market place letter writers and fortune tellers ply their professions; black, portly Sudanese negres in tatters dance to the tune of metal cymbals and discs dangling about their bodies, and the fireater and snake-charmer amuse throngs with their clever tricks. Of all the side shows the snake charmer, perhaps, is strangest. As his assistant beats a doleful tom-tom, he draws a blissing reptile from a sack, allows it to bite his tongue and wipes away the blood with a handful of shavings. After convincing his audience that he is really wounded, he rolls the wet shavings into a pellet which he places in dry shavings. Then he blows on the mass until it smokes and later bursts into flames. Your native guide will say "he is a very holy man." "Dog of a Town," Say Arabs.. Once a powerful Phoenician city and later a Carthaginian stronghold, Tangier has been despoiled by many an invading army or bombarding fleet. The Romans, Vandals, Arabs, Portu guise, Spaniards and English each have played a dramatic part in the life of this city. Tangier is situated not only at the crossroads of the sea, but of the air and land as well. Swift bus lines radiate from it in a network which covers Morocco. There is daily air service to Casablanca and Spain. A railroad runs to Inland Fez and Atlantic ports. While Tangier has a distinct oriental atmosphere, European contact is bringing it up-to-date. Maybe that is why the Arabs call the city a "dog of a town." Telephones are everywhere; the French have built a modern hospital; the Pasture institute is the finest in Africa, and there is a European residential district. Tangier's country club has a nine-hole golf course, but rugged little Arab boys, descendants of the corsairs of old, are caddies. Nevertheless, Tangier has not outgrown the East's special taxi—the single passenger donkey—and perhaps never will, for automobiles and busses cannot navigate its narrow streets. Across the Strait looms the lofty Rock of Gibraltar, the northern pillar of the famed Pillars of Hercules that guarded the western entrance to the Mediterranean. The rock's highest point is more than twice the height of the Washington monument or about 100 feet higher than the world's tallest building. Since the Moors first occupied Gibraltar centuries ago, its face has frequently undergone "treatment." A fortified castle dating back to Moorish occupation still stands in one of its recesses, sharply contrasting with the more modern British ramparts. Tunnels have been bored, paths dynamical and in places its rough "countenance" has been given an application of cement upon which rain water is caught and drained into reservoirs. In natural caves in the rock live the famous Gibraltar monkeys, probably the only monkeys in Europe that were not brought there by men in modern times. The animals are protected by law and are fed by the British army. Gibraltar City Very British. Gibraltar, the rock, is known to every school child. Gibraltar, the city at its feet, is known to but few. Gibraltar city is extremely British if the traveler confines his observations to British soldiers who are everywhere, British "bobbles" who appear as if they had just emerged from a London police station, British flags that top the masts of municipal and government buildings, and British warships and commercial vessels that outnumber all others anchored in the harbor. But a glance at its street crowds and its buildings reveals a strange mixture. Most Glibrattr buildings are Spanish in design. Its narrow streets are crowded with busy throngs from many parts of the world. Scotchmen in kilt brush past turbaned Moors from the other side of the Strait; Spanlands from Madrid, Malaga and Cadiz, mingle with sturdy Greeks; ruddy-skinned Hindus and Egyptians Jostle Levantine Jews in gaberdians; and swarthy Senegal negroes rub elbows with Chinese from Canton. And weaving in and out of the human mass are hundreds of foreign seamen from bonts that come to Glibrattr for fuel, trade and repairs. The mixture of races has become even more noticeable in recent years since Glibrattr has increased in popularity as a pleasure resort for European and American vacationists. The town begins at the shore of the broad bay and rises 250 feet up the north side of the rock. Long flights of steps lead to the upper portion of the town, making wheeled traffic impossible on many streets. The Mediterranean, or south side of the rock, is almost a sheer cliff. Fishermen have built, however, small villages in the few recesses which are reached by narrow paths. Between Spain and the British territory is a narrow strip of land called the neutral zone where travelers get the best land view of the rock. The city took its name from the rock which was called Mount Abyla or Apes hill in ancient times. It was once owned by the Phoenicians and fell, in turn, to the Carthaginians, Romans and Visigoths. In the Eighth century the Moorish chief, Tarik-Ibn-Zeyad, landed on the rock and called it Gibel-Tarik or Mountain of Tarik of which "Gibraltar" is a corruption. The Moors had held Gibraltar for six centuries when in 1300 the Spanish seized it, but twenty-four years later the Moslems regained possession. It became Spanish territory again in 1462. The British have held the rock since 1704 when they defeated a combined Spanish and French fleet. Since the British have had frequent wars over Gibraltar's possession. One Spanish siege lasted four years (1779-1783). THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. DEC. 29. 1934. BUTCHER BOY FAD INVADES BOUDOIR Nightgown Latest to Take on Peasant Style. The butcher boy nightgown now makes its bow. They've initiated the popular butcher boy silhouette into every thing else already, and the only thing left was the nightgown. People have been applauding the workman's smock idea in frocks and coats for lo, these many months, and now it looks as if the boudour were going peasant too. No longer must you float about in a simple pink crepe de chine nightgown. The butcher boy or peasant night gown isn't really so hard to take, once you grow accustomed to it. It's pretty fetching, in fact, when made in heavy white crepe, with gay embroidery of bright red and blue, full bloused long sleeves, a belted front and a loose back. You may want to call it a negligee instead, but the shops are presenting it under the label nightgown. You may have it with short puffed sleeves and a low round neck. If you prefer, and you may buy it in tea-rose or yellow as well as white. FUR-TRIMMED GOWN By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE FASHION WEEK Pastel gowns trimmed in dark fur is a favorite theme with designers who are interested in creating evening modes. Here is a very charming illustration of the fur with-pastel vogue. This gown, recently noted at a preview style display given by the Chicago Wholesale Market council is fashioned of pale rose and silver crepe trimmed in borderings of mole. It is of that ingenege type which so appeals to the debanute the success of whose "coming out" party depends so large on the prettiness of the frock she wears. The graceful flare of the slender skirt, the slit hemline of which is outlined with fur, the peplum and the wide collar are all important style details. Parisiennes Are Getting American Shoe Conscious Parisiennes are getting American shoe conscious. They never realized be- fore how comfortable a foot could be, given the proper space for toes to live and breathe and have their being. One of the smartest of the season's shoes being worn in Paris is a pierced suede shoe in dark green—also comes in dark brown and black—trimmed respectively with green patent leather, brown patent and black kid—worn with the new "relief knits" in the same colors. The young Parisiennes particularly like the delicately curved heel of the American shoes rather than the more straight heel of the majority of French shoes. Also the long vamp gives the foot an aristocratic line, which French matrons find satisfactory. STYLE NOTES Wide velvet sashes girdle taffeta frocks. Fur, feathers and novel veils trim vogulish dinner hats. High turbans in bright colored velvet is new vogue. Lacing often takes the place of buttoned fastenings. Dance frocks of silpper satin have muffs to match. Browns, rusts and copper reds compete with the new greens. Cossack suits with fur-bordered wide-belted tunic coats are in the winter picture. Chamois Gloves In the final rinse water for the chamois gloves, not only should there be some soapsuds but a few drops of olive oil. This treatment will make them dry as soft as new. Fish Swim in Jewelry Earrings, necklaces and bracelets of crystal filled with water in which tiny "goldfish" swim are being worn at Deauville, France. THREE COLOR VOGUE FOR REAL STYLISTS Brilliant Contrast Is Rule in Winter Clothes. This is a three-color season. Your costume color scheme this year must be carried out in groups of three if you intend to be in the swim. The custom of former years, to have dress or suit in one color, hat, gloves and accessories in another, is a back number now. Nowadays brilliant color contrast is the rule, and your accessories should be in a third and more sober color. For instance, you may wear a vivid raspberry tweed suit with hat and gloves of navy blue. But have your shoes and handbag black, for the correct effect. Or, if you want a green symphony, choose a Kelly green frock, and make your accessories gray and brown or gray and black. The idea of matching all the accessories—hat, handbag, shoes, gloves and scarf—is too careful in its effect, and marks your costume as a last year's inspiration. JEWELRY-MINDED By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE LADY OF THE ROOM Handsome jewelry is a requisite with this season's luxury mode. As you see in the picture evening compacts have gone very formal and are bejeweled to time in with their environment. Jewelry ensembles for evening wear are often extremely ornate, as the necklace, earrings and bracelet here shown clearly demonstrate. The very smart necklace and bracelet worn with the daytime frock in the picture are very new and most attractive. The unique feature about them is that they are a combination of velvet and silver. These stunning velvet-and-silver pieces come in colors to match your costume. Pointed Shoulders Shown in Latest Paris Dresses At the Paris shows shoulders are inclined to point outwards but without bulk. Waistlines are unanimously normal, and skirtlengths vary considerably from just below the knee for sports and street wear to c. l. r. to the ankle for mid-day and afternoon. There are lots of butterfly bows and bunches of materials like puffs or clouds that stick out from the hips, the shoulders or upper arms. You can't honestly say that hats have any shape at all. They are simply pulled in here and there, fastened, twisted and placed on the head at any and every conceivable angle but sloping toward if not over the eyes. FLASHES FROM PARIS Lavish use of paillettes continues. Quilted effects are the smart decoration. Many dresses of Empire style are fitted without a belt. Little ribbon bows are used to fasten instead of buttons. Schiaparelli uses transparent glass belts on evening dresses. Davenport and broadcloth are preferred daytime dress materials. Designers declare slipper satin the perfect fabric for robe de style. Metal Woven Crepes New Bianchhai has launched a group of lames and metal woven cresps, with silver more prominent than gold, which is a fashion book in itself. There are parchment lames, leaf lames, cobweb, patterned lames, and even "astrakhan" lames. Scores of pale crinkled crepes for evening are woven with one or two stripes of contrasting color, as deep petunia or pale blue centered by a silver thread, while pebbled artificial silks in turquoise or violet are covered with a silver sheen or pebbled with gold. Phone Aids Capture of Ace Bad Boy in Exciting Eastern Ohio Man Hunt SPOTLIGHTING THE STARS Orders Fly Thick and Fast As "Pretty Boy" Floyd Makes Last Stand America's most desperate criminal was at bay. In a dense eastern Ohio thicket prowled Charles "Pretty Boy" Floyd, killer and terrorist, frantically trying to escape the law. No matter where he turned, he was blocked. Routed from his gully camp near Wellsville by a posse that had been tipped off to his presence by telephone, the desperado had fled toward Lisbon in a commandeered automobile. But rapid communication by telephone outsped him. Purvis Takes Command A quickly-formed posse blocked the highway. Floyd shot his way out of the trap and fled to a nearby woods in his last vain attempt to evade the tightening band of officers. During the anxious hours of searching and waiting that followed, telephone lines hummed with orders as law enforcement agents closed in. Melvin H. Purvis, ace federal investigator who "got" Dillinger, had arrived to direct the man hunt, and telephone instructions were flying thick and fast to co-ordinate the hunters' activities. Gets Telephone Tip Finally the long-awaited call came, Floyd had been seen in a woods. Investigator Puris and his men sped to the scene, arriving as the bandit was about to flee in another automobile. A few minutes later, America's public enemy No. 1 lay dying in a cornfield seven miles north of East Liverpool, riddled with bullets. When word was flashed over the wires that the "feds had got their man," the telephone exchange at East Liverpool, the town where Floyd's body was taken, became intensely active. Calls flooded the city from all parts of the United States — Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, New York and other large cities from coast to coast. Newspapers wanted information and interviews. Police officials wanted details. Telephone traffic was HELLO! Here's news and views of the stars you see and hear . . . They are filming "Tarzan in Guatemala" in the jungles of Central America.

PRETTY BOY' FLOYD double the normal load and six extra operators were required to handle the calls. Extra Operators Needed At E. G. Sturgis' undertaking parlor, where throngs of curious people jammed to get a look at the dead desperado, H. Y. Elliott, manager of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company's East Liverpool exchange, and Fred Swingle, Ohio Bell district traffic superintendent from Steubenville, personally handled dozens of calls to facilitate the rapid dissemination of news reports. In Wellsville on the preceding day, while "Pretty Boy" was still at large, an extra operator was needed to handle the flood of calls for information, but that load was small compared with the deluge that poured into the East Liverpool telephone exchange after the capture. Floyd was shot down at 4:10 o'clock on a Monday afternoon and the waiting nation heard the news in a radio news bulletin at 6:30 p. m. the same day, largely because of the swift transmission of the news to radio stations by telephone and teletypewriter.
