The purpose of the organization is to create national interest and sympathy in behalf of the Abyssinians. A committee was appointed to draft an appeal to be sent to colleges thrustout the country in an effort to enlist the co-operative of these organizations similar chapters. Also to make an appeal to the press of the United States and Europe. Since Emperor Halle Selassie of Ethiopia or Abyssinia has not asked for financial assistance, contributions should not be solicited. The president of the local chapter is Paris Sterrett of Cleveland. Miss Anne Lumpkins of that city is assistant secretary. Director of publicity, Prof. Chas. S. Smith. The executive committee includes Bishop Ransom, S. Wright, Dr. Edw. A, Clarke, Prof. Smith and others. The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The solidly Republican colored wards "delivered" for the tax levies (Tuesday) even more strongly than they have in some elections where the term of candidate was at stake. Wednesday, April 23. The the good old "Colored Wards" are depended upon at every election to "save the day" for the Republican party of this city, our voters constituting nearly one-third of it, about every other race, represented in it (the party), has representation in the mayor's cabinet but ours, and not one of them furnish the party the number of votes we do. Clayborne George is most responsible for this! He told Mayor Harry L. Davis, and the community, thru the local daily papers, that our people were not looking for nor asking such representation. Of course, this "was not the number of him the job holds—membership in the City Civil Service Commission. The next Republican mayor of this city, will give us that representation, regardless of the Georges and their kidney. Mark our prediction! There is no good reason why an Afro-American judge should not grace the municipal bench of Cleveland. The fact is that our people and neither of the old parties have taken the trouble to seriously promote the candidacy of any one of our attorneys and push it to a successful conclusion. It is therefore up to our voters themselves to unite with the candidates and carry him to victory. The Gazette believes that victory can be assured if the candidate selected employs correct tactics. That means that he must not enter into deals with a weak white ("grey") candidate who can not deliver votes, nor with a strong nominee who does not have to worry about support at the polls. Our candidate must build up his own machine, concentrate as much as possible on piling up votes for him, and then a good campaign fund. THIS LAST IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY! Care must be exercised in the selection of a candidate to unite upon. There are several of our attorneys who would make good candidates. Councilman Krewson, in spite of the fact that there was not a majority of his committee present, held the "Bryant gasoline station" hearing, Monday, we noted in our last issue. Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Bryant and a lady friend were on hand but the Rev. David Ormond Walker was not. Rev. J. O. Haithcox, pastor of St. John's church, and Walker returned, Saturday, from Hot Springs, Ark., where they attended a meeting of the A. M. E. Bishops Council. So there was no good reason why Walker should not have been in attendance upon the "Krewson" hearing, Monday. Councilman Hubbard was there, however, representing him and did about all he could do to make Councilman Krewson favor the opposition Walker has for weeks in the city ordinance, present Bryant opening the west entrance and exit of his gasoline station. The Rounder understands that there is an ambiguity in the city ordinance, which Walker invoked to close the entrance, that would invalidate it if ever tested in the courts. Councilman Hubbard's placing himself squarely on the Walker side of the controversy, after promising the Bryants to help them, will undoubtedly play an important part in his defeat for renomination, this fall. His and Walker's efforts to kill the Bryant gasoline race enterprise is being roundly denounced on all sides. The Rev. David Ormond Walker is sure a "bobblehugg" as the Germans would say. In his address to St. James Forum, Sunday afternoon, with the help of Rev. Horace White of Mt. Zion Cong. church, Walker said he was going to ask the Cleveland Ministers Union at its called meeting, the next day, to take action against gambling conditions in the city, saying he had been "asked to meet and present a protest to meet and vote against the bill to tend state aid to parochial schools". He also said, "instead, I am going to ask the ministers why they are fighting over dead things in the Constitution and why they are afraid to stand up and for elimination of cancerous things now existing in the community," mentioning "tossing of dice, throwing out of a number" and playing policy. At the Cleveland ministers union's called meeting, Walker was asked "mute as a man, and for saying no to gambling Why? Especially after making so much noise over the matter in the Forum meeting, Sunday afternoon? The proposed charter amendment, calling for restoration of the city manager form of government in Cleveland, which "Sonny" DeMaioribus, president of the City Council, is sponsoring, ought to be thrown on the scrap-heap with the old charter amendment ditched by the voters of Cleveland, which agreed to schedule to speak, "Sonny" failed to materialize at St. James Forum, last Sunday afternoon week, or since. Captain (Miss) Witt of the Women's Police Bureau, after viewing "Stevedore," a proletarian play, is quoted in the local city papers as saying, theftly: "I suppose a play about Stevedores ought to have people in it who talk like Stevedors." And to think Miss Witt had such a fight, with a subordinate officer in her bureau because the latter said "dam," that Chief of Police George J. Matowitz had to hold several hearings before the squabble was settled. The Hon. Perry B. Jackson, who with Miss Witt witnessed the play, last week Wednesday night, is quoted by the same paper as saying: "I'd call it a game, you quite powerful." As far as to see, The Rounder has been able to see, none of the daily papers have announced Attorney Charlie W. White's opinion of the play beyond the fact that with the other "censors" he agreed that the performances could continue without the deletions Police Prosecutor Michael Picciano suggested earlier in the day, or any others. "NEW DEAL" FOE! Conservative Alabaman Is Bigger Handicap Than All Republicans. Washington, D. C.—Close to the heart of the solid South, in the stanchest stronghold of the Democrats, Wm. Irwin Grubb sits on the bench and does more to hamper and hobble the New Deal than all the Republicans in Congress. The administration's ablest attorneys are searching for a formula under which they can circumvent or overturn the tree sledge-hammer blows that this 72-year-old federal judge has delivered at the foundations of the New Deal. The men who are attempting to save the National Recovery Administration and the Tennessee Valley Authority from Judge Grubb's adverse rulings said they got only cold comfort from an examination of his record. Reversals of his opinions by higher courts are few. In the case of Judge Grubb, will hear arguments involving the constitutionality of NRA, Judge Grubb's decisions uphold "states rights." Wisconsin "NRA" Upset. Madison, Wis.—The Wisconsin recovery act was ruled unconstitutional by the State Supreme Court. Wednesday, on grounds that the Legislature illegally delegated to industries the power to formulate codes of fair competition. The high court pointed out that, under NRA these powers are delegated to the president. "STEVEDORE." AS THE GAZETTE was going to press, Thursday afternoon, Chief Matowitz notified the editor that the Jelliffes had notified Mayor Davis that they did not intend to obey his order to delete the profane language from the rotten play, "Stevedore." —Editor.

Make them explain—if they can. It will be a long, long time before this action of those two individuals will be forgotten or forgiven. How could Police Prosecutor Picciano and his co-censors in this matter be forgiven? AND JACKSON, rule there was no nonfancy in the play? If it is not profanity, it surely is blasphemous. Persons desiring copies of some of the rotten, profane and blasphemous language used in "Stevedore" can secure the same by calling at The Gazette office, 2322 E. 30th St., near Central Ave. If our people of this community were to do their duty WHITE JERRY JACKSON, they would make the city prono for their part in helping to show of that rotten play in Karmu theater, the last three days of last week and the first two of this week. The rotten play was scheduled to reopen, Thursday evening of this week, to run thru Sunday. Our two local ministers' organizations, the Ministers' Alliance and Baptist Ministers' Conference, are entitled to a great deal of credit for their activity in the matter. As we go to press, Miss RHILLEY, private secretary to Mayor HAYLE forms The Gazette that the mayor has ordered stricken out the profane language in "Stevedore," at the request of a sub-committee of the two committees of the Ministers' Alliance and the Baptist Ministers' Conference which visited him at City Hall, Wednesday noon. Councilman John E. Hubbard accompanied the sub-committee. Bundy, Finkle and Payne should have been asked to accompany him. If the Jelliffes fails to answer the INSULTING language, the two committees' organizations, which have consulted Atty Walter E, Carey, Jr. will undoubtedly have issued by the courts an injunction prohibiting further performances of the rotten proletarian (communistic) play in the city of Cleveland. THE GREAT VIOLINIST Jan Kubelik, Famous Bohemian Artist, and Son to Give a Recital in Severance Hall, Tuesday Evening. The Silver Jubilee concert of the Cleveland Jewish Singing Society in Severance Hall, Tuesday evening, promises to be an outstanding musical event, and advance sale of tickets indicates a capacity audience will greet the singers, under the direction of Charles D. Dawe, conductor. Kubelik, world-famous Bohemian violinist and his composer-son, Raffael, his accompanist, will appear as guest-artists with the society which has fifty active members and forty-four associate members. Mr. Dawe has been conductor for six years, assisted by Sam Shapiro. Accompanied by the Cleveland Music Instructor at the Cleveland Music School settlement. Not since 1921 has Kubelik visited this country, having spent the time concerting in Australia, Asia, Europe and South America. Tickets on sale at Taylor's, 620 Euclid Ave., at fifty cents to two dollars. Democrats Insult Them! Washington, D. C.—A group of our women were denied admission to the U. S. House of Representatives restaurant, Monday, but Pat Johnson, a southern "cracker" and Democrat, the manager, said there was no disturbance. Of course, not. The women, accompanied by a number white "grey" women, were members of "Father" Divine's peace mission from Los Angeles. Second Set of Twins in 10 Months. Philadelphia, Pa.—Birth of two sets of twins in 10 months to Mrs. Charles Connor (Irish), was announced, last week, at the Women's hospital. The first twins, Hubert and John, were born, April 27, 1934. The second twin was born, Saturday. The new twins, Hubert and Mrs. Connor and her husband, a waiter at the Merlon Cricket club, to five.

SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 1935. The Gazette is indebted to the Cleveland Daily News and the Associated Press for the excellent portrait of Jess Owens and Ben Johnson, used in our last issue. --- So Benito's opera boufe, known as "Ethiopia" or "Abyssinia", has come to an abrupt end and without any "fireworks" after so much bombast and hot-air. Well, well. WELL! --- Those property owners in the Outhwaite "slum-clearance" area who are contending in the U. S. court for more money for their properties than the local appraisers would consent to have given them, are wise! More of the owners of the 167 parcels in the area ought to do likewise. Taking their property from them at the local appraisal price is in most cases confiscation, pure and simple. This same was true in the Cedar-Central area. --- Maurice Samuel, author and world-traveler, who served in the American army in the World War, and lives half of each year in Palestine, talked to the City Club Forum and over WHK, Saturday noon. Among the things he uttered was a warning to Jews of every class "not to be mislead into either Communism or Facism but to 'attend to the Jews' own business." By the same token, the advice is equally as good when given to Afro-Americans. --- Prof. W. E. DuBois made a speech in Chicago, last week, in an effort to soften the miserable pro-segregation speech he made in the same city, some months ago. However, he is still insidiously advising our people to give into segregation at least in part. Such a person is more harmful than many open and avowed enemies are. The person who strikes from within the race is a double-edged knife blade, and a sharp one; too, whereas, the open and avowed enemy is a knife-blade with a single edge. The need of a local race organization, that will function fully and properly, is so glaringly apparent, these days, that an effort is to be made immediately to reorganize The Citizens Rights League. The staging of that rotten play, "Stevedore," in Karamu "theater" made this perfectly clear. There must be no more of that sort of thing in Cleveland. The NAACP local branch, our local Federation of Women's clubs, The League of Struggle and all the other clubs do not yet seem to know that the blasphemous play has been given in the city. LORD, HAVE MERCY HEART-RENDING. The neglect of the local NAACP branch, our local Federation of Women's Clubs and the League of Struggle in the Peter DeGreen-Mrs. Louise Brown case. The Gazette feels is heart-rending. DeGreen's automobile killed that widow and left three or four little orphan children without any visible means of support that The Gazette has been able to learn of. DeGreen got off "scott-free" the state's witnesses testified that he was driving at the rate of sixty to sixty-five miles an hour. The jury was composed of eight men and four women, and Sgt. Cornelius Sullivan of the police manslaughter squad did everything it was humanly possible for him to do to convict DeGreen, even to getting into a squabble with his superior officers. When he first arrested the man, one of Sullivan's superior officers ordered DeGreen released. It was Sullivan who found the state's witnesses and at one time charged that his superiors were "hindering" him in his work. This man did more in an effort to secure justice for those little orphan children than all three of our organizations, named in the foregoing. Indeed, The Gazette has yet to learn that they took any interest whatever in the matter altho it called upon them repeatedly, in recent weeks, to do so. Lord, have mercy! DeGreen, age 52, lives at 6820 Berwald Ave., and Mrs. Louise Brown lived at 8211 Glade Ave. She was killed in Kinsman Rd. at E. 81st St. The jury was out six hours before arriving at a verdict. The least any one or all three of the organizations can do now is to look after those orphan children, if it is too late to appeal the case to a higher court. "STEVEDORE"! About a year ago, our local ministers' organizations protested vehemently the insulting "Negro" plays, "The Gilpin Players" were presenting, under the direction of and at the behest of the Russell W. Jellifes, managers of the E. 38th St. Playhouse for "Negroes," and their protests were ignored, they say. These plays were staged in what the Jellifes term "The Karamu Theater," located in an old store-room in Central Ave., next to the corner storeroom, and for the purpose of raising funds for some purpose or other. Their success with these insulting plays, in attracting, in the main, a poor class of whites to the "theater," and thus raising the funds, in the face of our ministers' protests seems to have emboldened them to the extent that the Jellifes, "stepped out" with their presentation of "Stevedore," by far the most profane, vulgar and vile "play" ever presented on any stage in the city of Cleveland in our memory, and we have lived here considerably more than a half century. That it is grossly insulting to our people is putting it entirely too mildly. Its profanity and vulgarity is positively vile. And what is worse when, united protest of our local press and pulpit was made to the proper authorities, the Jellifes not only persisted in presenting the rotten play, but are fighting to continue doing so—make decent, self and race respecting Afro-Americans of this country "like it," submit to it. Mark you, they are making their living at the E. 38th St. Playhouse for "Negroes." Lord, have mercy! Mayor Harry L. Davis, on Wednesday of this week, promised a delegation of our local ministers, so his secretary phoned The Gazette, that afternoon, that the objectionable language in "Stevedore" would be deleted if the play is presented again, as scheduled, the last three days of this week and the first two of next week. The rotten play will have to be watched, each night, to see that the mayor's order is carried out. Unless this is done, we do not believe that it will be. Send a police censor, each night, Chief Matowitz, and make the Jellifes "like it." Meantime, we should "check up" on our councilmen, Messrs. Finkle, Hubbard, Bundy and Payne, and learn what they are doing in the matter as well as why they did not take the proper steps, last week, to suppress the profane, vulgar and insulting play. Deleting only the profane language in "Stevedore" will not remove from it such expressions, as "Coon," "Nigger-Lover," "Good Niggers," "Bad Niggers," etc., etc. --- Two "Negroes," Perry Jackson and Charlie White, an assistant police prosecutor and an assistant city law-director, respectfully, were called into Chief Police Prosecutor Michael Picciano's conference (on the play, "Stevedore"), last week Thursday, and could have stopped the showing of the rotten thing, or at least had the vile and grossly insulting language in it deleted, had they possessed the self and race respect, and "guts" they should have and not have been so amenable to political or other influence. Those two individuals and Russell W. Jelliffe who put on the rotten play, MUST GO with the passing of this year—if not sooner. Mayor Harry L. Davis and the Community Fund will please take notice. IS IT ANY USE TO CON- TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal acceptance, are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, whether long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt.—Wm. Monroe Trooter in The Boston (Mass.) Guardian Subscribe Now THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, MARCH 9. 1935. 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 uphold the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined "Serious injury" defined. Damages in case of assault. Damages in case of lynching. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. Limitations of action. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. County's right of action against member of mob. County's right of action against another county. 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 or per person 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.) comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 161 1.) 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. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars as damages from the permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282 The legal representative, of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's widow's sum, the widow or children surviving 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. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by a 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 county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (92 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than two jurors for counsel fees in the action for such recovery (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287.

A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288.

(93 v 163 12) Section 6239. 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, be 'ng the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public or other by land or marsh, 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 immed not less 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 trouble in our people will not use it as often as they would in the case, we need it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. THE CHANGE OF LIFE No medicine can prevent the change of life, during middle-age, but CARDUI does help women to overcome much suffering during that time. MOBS. The General Code of Ohio: Many women have reported that by taking Cardui during the change of season, they have newed and general health improved. By building up their strength, women have overcome ordinary nervousness and painful conditions due to poor nourishment. They can eat a purely vegetable, harmless medicine. When you need Cardui, buy a bottle and take it regularly. Several bottles may be needed. Carefully see if it will help you as it has helped so many women. Of course, if Cardui does not benefit YOU, consult a physician. Sold at drug stores. MARCH IS ELECTRIC CLOCK MONTH Don't be Late! There's nothing more upsetting than being late any place where you should be on time. Once behind time, you snatch and strain, rush and run, get out of breath and out of sorts.

Ward also walked off with the 65-yard high hurdles by trimming Bob Osgood, a Cleveland product and a "grey," and a teammate, while Owens ran third. Ward was knocked out of the fourth quarter time of 8 seconds flat. Owens scored the only victory of the meet in the 65-yard low hurdles in which he broke the tape ahead of Ward and Hunt of Michigan.

This was the first in which he did not wear a make-up five years he has been late, absent. Harrison illness gave his understudy, Charles Winter Wood, the opportunity he has been waiting for all the five years the play has been given. Dr. Milton J.

ALL ABOARD Only one-half of one per cent of the users of your public transportation system could possibly be benefited by the current throughrouting proposal. That fact the through-routing advocates have never attempted specifically to controvert, because it is incontrovertible. Instead, they have attempted to drag a red herding across the path of the truth—to distract your attention from it by filling the air with scurrilous personal attacks and similar irrelevancies. Even at this late date, and in spite of the columns the newspapers have devoted to through-routing, many of the public do not know what through-routing is all about. Many think that, as riders of the Clifton, Detroit, Madison, Lorain and other West-side lines, through-routing would enable them to ride out Euclid Avenue without transferring. This is because the newspapers apparently believe that the prosaic statistics and facts of the matter don't make good reading. Nevertheless, its crux is in the facts and statistics. In considering through-routing, keep two simple and undeniable facts firmly in mind: 1. The proposal is to join the West 25th Street and Euclid Avenue lines, and no others. If you live on any other West-side line, you'd still have to transfer. 2. Riders of the West 25th Street and Euclid Avenue lines who might benefit by the hook-up are, as accurately indicated by transfer counts, only 0.5 per cent of all the riders whose patronage supports this system.
