The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The Mayor and his director of law, Ezra Shapiro, addressed Bethany Forum, late Sunday afternoon. The meeting, scheduled for 4 o'clock, did not get started until 5:30 p. m., on the Mayor's arrival. A comfortable audience of about 200—not more—that did not quite fill the church of limited capacity, greeted his honor enthusiastically on his arrival and about his speech. The pastor, Rev. Caw, and one of his daughters, said to hold city jobs, which undoubtedly accounts for the presence of the two city officials as speakers for Bethany's Forum, Sunday afternoon. Sunday afternoon's meeting at St. James Forum was anything but a success for several reasons. Only sixty-eight persons, by actual count, were in the audience which heard Russell Jelife, director of The Neighborhood Association (E. 38th St. Playhouse), fail to say anything worth while in explanation of his staging the vile play, "Stevedore," and then repeating the presentation after our two local ministers' organizations had bitterly protested and the get out call the pleas court to stop the profane, obscene and blasphemous Communist production, Sunday week, Rev. David Ormond Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. church, announced that Jelife had asked to become a Forum speaker in order to explain and "defend himself." But he fell far short of doing so. As a matter of fact, The Rounder does not believe that he or any other person can justify the staging of such a rotten to do so. At the conclusion of his short, wandering talk, and during the question period which followed, asked him if there was anything would justify the use, in any public place, of the half dozen or more profane and blasphemous sentences from the play, "Stevedore," which he read to the audience. That question was like a bolt of thunder from a clear sky and of course was not answered, Jelife's effort to do so was pitiful, positively pitiful. Thruout it all, the pastor of the church sat speechless, even tho he was asked a question. The Forum critic, John Cobbs, a local student and a Democrat, took a fall out of Councilman John E. Hubbard when he said, Mr. Hubbard was told to speak to the audience last Sunday. The councilman sat in the audience and the Sunday previous, the Jelife "explanation" meeting as a matter of fact was a practical failure, even tho the Hon. Harry E. Davis tried to help him out with a weak statement that was practically an insult to every self and race respecting Afro-American in the audience. Geo. W. Carroll, E. 74th St., who has been confined to his bed for ten days, celebrated his 88th birthday, April 13.

Mr. and Mrs. Carroll thank the many friends for courtesies shown during Clarke's pastor of Trinity A. M. E. church, Wilberforce, and Rev. David O. Walker, pastor of St. James A. M. E. church, this city, made two very pleasant visits to Mr. Carroll. The Art Ramblers of Woodland Center will present on April 24 and 25 a new play, "The Irrepressible Conflict," by Mrs. Emma H. Ramsay, well known social worker. CHURCHES "SIDE-STEP" Economic and Civic Issues Effecting Our People Adversely—Progress in Race Relations. The churches are challenged to a "sense of deep responsibility" in bringing a square deal to our people under the New Deal and in "stepping forward rather than side-stepping" the economic and civic issues of today, according to the thirteenth annual report of the department of race relations of the Federal Council of Churches, just issued. The department made "pioneer" studies of the cotton-growing communities in Alabama and Arkansas in the interest of share-croppers and share-tenters, hold interracial conferences in several leading cities, made studies of the effect of various phases of the recovery program upon our people there and conducted an active campaign against lynching and for antilynching legislation. The report indicates that observance of the annual Race Relations Sunday is becoming more widespread and popular each year. A LIFE-SAVER That Is What the Modern Up-to-date Electric Refrigerator Is. Three-fourths of the food we use is perishable, according to food scientists. This means that unless most foods are kept in temperatures below 50 degrees until we are ready to eat them, a large part will spoil and become unfit for human consumption. The modern food store is equipped with refrigerated show cases, and large refrigerator storage rooms, so that the perishable foods can be kept fresh and safe for you to eat. It is only reasonable, therefore, that the home maker should exercise the same care in protecting from spoilage in the home, the food that her family eats. Food bacteria, and molds develop very quickly as soon as the food is exposed to temperatures over 50 degrees. An electric refrigerator is designed to keep foods at just the right temperatures for food storage. JEFFRIES ON "STEVEDORE" Calls It a Vile, Blasphemous, Communist Play and Is Right. Recently the Mayor lost the support of the strong "All Nations Group." Now he is faunting defiance to the Colored people, who always supported him and are his "last stand." This is just one more step toward his extinction. The Colored people, in an almost solid voice, demanded the exclusion or modification of the vile, blasphemous and communist play, "Stevdore" shown at the Karamu Theater on Central Ave. Like every other delegation who have appealed to the Mayor, they were given the "run around" and the cold shoulder. The reflection on the vile language and the race hatred brot out in this play were offensive to the Colored people themselves, in addition to leaving a bad effect among the "whites." They at least deserved courteous consideration, in view of the fact that many of the Mayor's votes come from that section. This can only mean another group to desert his "camp." The Colored people have always been loyal and faithful.—Raymond J. Jeffries in Lakewood Post. Trips Over a Fortune. Chicago, Ill.—Bill Craven, porter, walked into the Northern Trust Co., last week Friday, and tripped over $10,000 in bills of small denominations, wrapped in a bundle and dropped a moment before by a woman customer. Craven pushed the money thru a teller's wicket with the remark "I found this on the floor," and was "rewarded" with a $50 bill. You know he is a "Negro." Attacks Jews. Leicester, England—Sir Oswald Mosley, British Fascist leader, voiced his organization's policy toward Jews, Monday, with an attack rivaling, if not surpassing, some of Adolf Hitler's anti-Semitic outbursts. "For the first time I openly and publicly challenge Jewish interests in this country," he declared. "Commanding commerce, commanding the press, commanding the cinema, dominating the city of London, they are killing industry with their sweatshops." Support of the Cleveland Civil Service Employees Association in its fight against political patronage grabbers was pledged, Tuesday night, by Mrs. Lucia McBride and Mrs. Mary B. Martin, members of the Board of Education, and Max S Hayes, a member of the County Charter Commission, in speeches before the association in the Auditorium at 2612 Prospect Ave. After asserting that the absence of political interference in employing teachers and the use of the civil service system had greatly benefited the school system, Mrs. Martin said: "I want your organization to feel free to call on any member of the board to help you perpetuate the association and keep this city clean."

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia — Emperor Haile Selassie announced, Sunday, the introduction of obligatory military service, including both men and women, as in several countries in Europe. The move was regarded as part of Ethiopia's answer to concentration of Italian troops in Eritrea and Italian Somaliland. In drafting women as well as men it was made plain that female military tasks will be confined to nursing and the like, with little probability that women would be actually trained for fighting, like in America during the World War. The dispute with Italy, now the hands of the League of Nations or secrecy at the request of Ethiopia, directed with Italy had been broken off by Abyssinia (Ethiopia.) While hoping that a "just" decision would be reached, it was stated in official quarters that a "state of defense" will be declared if no agreement materializes. The Emperor does not propose to be "caught napping." Col. Hubert Julian, the Afro-American aviator known as "The Black Eagle of Harlem" who arrived, recently, was not welcomed because of his failure "to make good" here several years ago. It is said that he has been refused an audience by Emperor Halle Selassie, and ascended in Ethiopia's best plane only to return to mother earth in such a way as to ruin it as well as what was a most promising future for him here, as an aviator. It is also true that American officials are discouraging the arrival of Afro-Americans, not because "the Ethiopian government is cool toward them," however, but for reasons observed in the book, his best arrival made overtures to his visit the Ethiopian army air force, he was quietly but firmly told that "Ethiopia's aviation is headed by competent foreign experts." He had his opportunity, several years ago. Conflicting Interests in Abyssinia. Many national governments, which have interests in Abyssinia, are opposed to the French ambassador, the Japanese ambassador at Prime Sport News A Hot One. According to Wm. Allen White, Emporia, Kansas, publisher and midwestern Republican leader, "For two years the Democrats have been at bat with two men on base, but no runs and two out—the NRA and the AAA. That's the net of it." Dudas Kayes Larry Johnson. New York City—Steve Dudas, Edgewater (N.

San Francisco, Cal.-Bob Olin of New York is wearing a light-heavy-weight boxing crown rudely dented by the mauling he took, Saturday night, from John Henry Lewis of Phoenix, Ariz. In a ten-round battle. It was a non-title, overweight bout, but Lewis captured every round from the champion before a near capacity crowd of about 8,000. Didn't Chisel In on Louis. Detroit, Mich.—Atler E. Ellis, manager of Joe Louis when he was an amateur, Saturday was denied a right to share in Louis' fight profits by Circuit Judge Harry B. Keidan. Ellis had filed a petition asking for an accounting and receivorship of the boxers' fight proceeds, claiming he was entitled to more than the approximately $400 he said he received within the past year. The court ruled that the contract was null and void because an A. A. U. regulation holds that agreements made as an amateur contestant become professionals. He also held that Louis' mother, Mrs. Lillie Brooks, acted illegally in signing an agreement for her son, who was a minor, because she was not a duly-appointed guardian.

Baer Sees Louis Kayo Lazer. Chicago, Ill.—With Heavyweight Champion Max Baer solemnly looking on from a ringside seat, Joe Louis of Detroit knocked out Roy Lazer of Paterson, N. J., in the third of a scheduled ten-round bout, last week Friday night. It was Louis' eighteenth straight victory, and fourteenth knockout, since he entered the professional ranks. July 4, 1934. Lazer, who held his own with Max Baer in training camp bouts last summer, the former Italian was preparing for his titular match at the then champion, Primo Carnera, was helpless before the devastating punching of Louis. Lazer's First Defeat. Until he entered the ring with the Detroit sensation, Lazer never had lost a bout, but the first clean punch Louis landed on his chin stunned him. It was a short right chop to the jaw in the first five seconds of fighting. From that moment on, it was only a question of how long the Jersey fighter would be able to stave off Louis' methodical attack. The biggest indoor crowd to see a boxing bout anywhere in the world, this year—19,461—paid $44,642 to see Louis move a step nearer a championship bout with Baer. Louis weighed 196½, Lazer 192. "K. K.

Costigan-Wagner" antilynching bill." The southern "crackers" in control of the U. S. Congress have at last shown their "teeth" against it. Senator E. D. Smith of South Carolina in a speech, Tuesday, characterized it as an "infamous bill." Or course he is wrong but that makes no difference. Watch our prediction (from the very first) come true—the "crackers" in the Congress will kill that or any other antilynching bill. They did it even when there was a so-called Republican majority in the Congress. --- Our old friend, Major R. R. Wright of Philadelphia, president of the Citizens & Southern bank & Trust Co., is marketing Haitian coffee successfully, sending it on order "roasted and ground in one-pound packages." The trade name, "Mayor Wright's Genuine Haitian Coffee," will appear on all packages and will assure the purchaser genuine Haitian coffee. Since it is grown and sold by our people, all those who use coffee have an exceptional incentive to patronize Major Wright's Haitian Coffee and Products Trading Co., cor. 19th and South Sts., Philadelphia, Pa. It is the finest produced, as far as our people are concerned. NOT A MATTER OF POLITICS. Huge expenditures for reel, experiments and social developments have reached the point where politics is laid aside while Democrats and Republicans alike warn that the Government can not continue to pour out billions of dollars without retarding recovery and endangering the jobs of the millions working. The danger is obvious that in following hastily thought out schemes to aid those out of, work the Government might make the position of the unemployed worse and throw many of the vast majority now working onto the relief rolls. This viewpoint was expressed by Democrats and Republicans as the vast new relief bill was forced through Congress. "I want unemployment relief that gives relief and will continue to give it as long as relief is necessary," said Senator Barbour, a New Jersey Republican. . . . "I voted against a further four billion dollars for more public works because obviously such a program will not keep pace with unemployment and is the most costly approach to relief. It is an approach that no country can continue to pursue." And Senator Van Nuys, an Indiana Democrat, said: "I thoroughly appreciate the fact that such severe drains upon the Federal Treasury cannot continue indefinitely. Sooner or later we shall reach the bottom of the barrel. As I see it the instant duty of the Administration and the Congress is to encourage the states and prizes to rehabilitate themselves through their own efforts. I deplore the growing tendency to depend more and more upon Federal aid." The nation cannot afford to ignore such statements from able and experienced senators speaking the thoughts of their people back home. JELIFFE-"STEVEDORE." After one week's advertising, which began in the pulpit of St. James A. M. E. church, last Sunday week, Russell Jelfie, director of the "Neighborhood Association" (the E. 38th St. Playhouse), was given the opportunity, Sunday afternoon, he asked for it is said, to explain his sponsoring the production of that vile and blasphemous, Communist play, "Stevedore," which was given by "Colored young folk" in his Karamu theater, in Central Ave., several weeks ago. Only sixty-eight persons, by actual count, were present at the St. James Forum meeting to hear him. His talk was a rambling collection of words that did not explain anything but merely sketched his career in Cleveland. This was certainly not pertinent and did NOT justify the giving of so vile and blasphemous a production on any public stage in any respectable community. When he was asked by Dr. James K. Nickens that very question—if there was anything that would justify it—he "sidestepped," and gave his opinion of the play. Something not asked for. Hon. Harry E. Davis, former city civil service commissioner, the only member of the race in the audience who had the temerity to do so, followed Jelfie in a short and somewhat similar talk which also was NOT an answer to Dr. Nickens' question. When our two local Ministers' organizations joined with The Gazette some weeks ago, in public protest, and the Mayor ordered the profane and blasphemous language in "Stevedore" eliminated on the request of our two local ministers' organizations, Jelfie's reply was a court order restraining the Chief Executive of the city from interfering with the production of the rotten play. This court action was the basis of Judge John P. Dempsey's refusal to permit our local ministers' organizations to secure a restraining order restraining the production of "Stevedore" which later was given a second run by Jelfie. This was "rubbing it in," as it were, and showing our ministers of this community just how much respect he had for them and their desire in the matter, to say the least. And the "Neighborhood Association" (E. 38th St. Playhouse), of which Jelfie is the director, is listed with the Community Fund which has heretofore given it financial support as a "character building" social agency. The use of the vile, profane, obscene and blasphemous language in the rotten Communist play, "Stevedore," characterizes the "Neighborhood Association" as anything but a "character building" social agency. And what about the effect of the USE of such profane and blasphemous language upon the "young Colored folk," used in giving the miserable play? Lord, have mercy! Before ELECTRICITY became a MESSENGER 8. The Telescope The invention of the telescope—usually attributed to Galileo, who first exhibited it, in its completed form, in 1609—aroused new interest in communication by visible signals. By the end of the Seventeenth Century, these instruments were fairly common throughout Europe, and several signal systems, based on their use, had been suggested. About 1690, Amontons, a member of the French Academy, devised a system, the simplest form of which consisted merely of hoisting flags or placards bearing large letters, to be read by telescope and relayed from station to station. He demonstrated his system before the Dauphin in the Luxembourg Gardens, Paris, as shown in the above illustration, taken from an old French print. Shortly before this, Hooke, an English physicist, had invented a system made up of a line of high towers, each holding a frame on which twenty-six figures representing the letters of the alphabet were to be hung and the message spelled out. -HUMAN NATURE'S POULLEST BLOOT. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, APRIL 20 1935 OHIO BELL GAINS 18,474 TELEPHONES DURING LAST YEAR Upturn Credited to Better Ohio Business Conditions in 1934/ Better business conditions in Ohio during 1934 were reflected in the annual report issued recently for that year by The Ohio Bell Telephone Company, which showed a company gain of 18,474 telephones and an appreciable reduction in the number of telephones disconnected. "At the end of the year there were in service 549,900 telephones, compared with 531,426 at the close of 1933," the report states. To obtain this increase, 146,632 telephones were connected, 1.9 percent more than in 1933, while 127,974 telephones were disconnected, or 30.4 per cent less than in the preceding year. This meant that a total of 274,606 connections and disconnections were handled last year. The report points out the contrast with 1933, when 327,890 connections and disconnections were handled, resulting in a net loss of 40,014 telephones. Adds Employees The report says that as a result of improved business conditions, telephone revenues increased in 1934—revenues from local service by $472,546 and from long distance service by $610,285 over 1933. Total operating revenues amounted to $34,110,923, an increase of 4.3 per cent over 1933. Total operating expenses were $22,539,056, an increase over the previous year of 2.4 per cent. "It is gratifying to note that as the result of business improvement, we were able to give employment to five per cent more people than during the last half of 1933," the report states. While the number of telephones was increasing, so were the taxes, according to the report. Taxes assignable to operations for 1934 amounted to $4,198,051, an increase of $1,374,040 over 1933. The company's total tax bill for 1934 was equal to 36 per cent of the net operating revenues, and averaged 64% cents a telephone a month, or $7.74 for each telephone a year. "In December, 1934, the report says, the State Legislature enacted a bill increasing the state excise tax from 2.35 to 3.35 per cent. This, in itself, will result in an addition of more than $300,000 annually to the company's tax burden." Plant Is Improved The report points out that even with a low volume of business, expenditures for additions, betterments and re-arrangements of plant are continuously necessary to insure the proper quality of service. During 1934 these expenditures amounted to $6,313,971. Plant which cost $7,262,254 was retired from service, resulting in a net decrease of $948,283 in plant investment. At the end of 1934, the Ohio Bell had $167,372,162 worth of plant and equipment such as land, buildings, rights of way, poles, wire, cable, underground conduit, switchboards, telephones, office furniture, vehicles, construction work in progress, etc. Total assets were $179,689,284. Before ELECTRICITY became a MESSENGER 9. The Semaphore In 1793, Claude Chappe, a young French engineer, established between Paris and Lille an experimental line of semaphore telegraph stations. The essential features of his apparatus were an upright post on the top of which was pivoted a movable beam or cross arm carrying, at each end, another movable arm. The apparatus was so arranged that the positions of these three movable units could be changed, as desired, from within the tower on which the semaphore was mounted. Various combinations or sequences of these positions could be used, either for code phrase or alphabetical communications. Carlyle's "The French Revolution" gives a dramatic account of the telegraphing to Paris, by means of a line of Chappe semaphores, of the news of the surrender of the town of Conde. Chappe's system was widely used in France and similar systems were adopted in practically all European countries and in many States. (To Be Continued) WOMEN IN SPORTS O SEE US FIRST FOR ALL.

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 State Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law, and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage 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). comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 163 11). Section 6289. This chapter shall 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; or, if such injury result in permanent or temporary disabling of the hood 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 share, or the child 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 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. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal person. At such lynching, or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or MORS. comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 15.) 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 or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, utilities or privileges thereof shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble in our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under *ft*, in the courts. A. E.

Iecently one of the 50- foot tunnels through which the Colorado was ronted around the dam site, two years ago, was closed, and the first water was permitted to flow Into the new lake area above the gi- gantle concrete barrier. Southern California will be the chief beneficiary of the Boulder dam project. Here, people say “water” about as oft- en as Moslems say “Allah.” Next to money they say it more than any other ‘one word. With water, work, and money, men are reshaping the destiny of this land, ‘as did Nebuchadnezzar with the plains of Babylon. ‘More than 3,250,000 people live now {tn regions which were, until long after our Civil war, largely dry and empty. ‘This mass movement of settlers, and the huge total of previously earned wealth they brought with them, are ‘without paralielin the annals of mi- rations. Cash spent by its visitors and the income that many residents enjoy from money earned somewhere else pay much of southern California's runninz expenses. You see why this is so when you stop to think that nearly a million people are lured here each sear by soft. ‘warm climate, and that over a long pe riod an average of about one-tenth of this annual army has settled here with its fe savings. From news, pictures, romantic rail road folders, their own visits here, and ‘the talk of others who have made sim- Mar pleasure trips, many in the East think of southern California as a lotus land where life is easy. It is, for those who come to plas, to rest, or just to ‘enjoy laziness in a lush, subtropie cll- mate. Yet the truth Is that here, by the sweat of his brow and with infinite pains, man has turned what was a des- ‘ert into that Eden which visitors see now as they ride over smooth paved roads through miles of fragrant or- ehards, Man's Work Never Done. ‘Outwardly, it all seems so complete: every trim green fleid, neat grove, and bright flower bed is in place, as the world might have looked after the six days of creation. Yet man's work is never done. Behind the ease and lit ter of lavish resort hotels, country-club Bfe, and fale beach crowds of sun wor shipers from the Middle West, the rhythm of pick and shovel. of daily routine in stores and factories, in oil fields and orchards,-t8 constant and unbroken. Back of all this routine. a task oes ‘on, a stupendous, unprecedented effort Its clatter echoes through lonz-sitent canyons ; empty deserts are dotted now with workmen's camps, and the shock of exploding dynamite rocks the hills as armies of men dig, drill, and blast Doring 91 miles of tunnels and excavat Ing leagues of giant aqueducts to reach and tap the mad Colorado river and bring still more water to this ever thirsting soll For ten years experts figured, sur veyed, drew maps, and planned, and for a few years more thousanis of men must toll, often stripped naked tm the stifling heat of tunnels xhot through solid rock, to finish this gizan te undertaking. This Is southern California's supreme effort. It has never tried a task of such magnitude. In all the history of great waterworks, the whole world has seen nothing like it. These huge canals and reservoirs will be needed. the peo- ple say, to take eare of growth in pop ulation, which has increased more than 1,400 per cent since 1890. Los Angeles and 12 neighboring cities, forming the metropolitan water istrict, are bulldinz and “paving for this vast water system: but its safe: steady supply will depegd on Boulder dam, being erected bs ie feilera! zov ernment in the Black canson at a point on the Arizona-Nevada frontier. Largest Artificial Lake. Boulder dam will impound the world's largest artificial lake, Unreal. hard to believe—that here, 14 this dry waste of dust and mirage, there should suddenly appear a vast lake of cool, clear water, fringed by resorts anil dot ted with pleasure craft! About 125 miles downstream from Boulder dam ts another, known as the Parker: it is the diversion dam, where waver will be taken off for use in southern Califor- nia. Fly east from Los Angeles any week end and look down on the. highways that cross the deserts. Trains of scurrying motor cars raise leazue-lonz dust clouds, like arms wagons on the mareh. “Where are they all going?” you ast ‘ia a See enone - eee eo by thousands, month after month.” No wonder. Among river dams ot all time it is incomparable. Set be- tween the steep walls of a deep.canyon, widening toward its top, the dam's towering bulk, as you look up, makes you think of one mountain tipped up- side down between two others. \ The dam structure will be 1,200 feet across its top, and over this top will pass a highway, giving men and wheels their first chance in history to move directly betweeen Arizona and Nevada. Yet, massive as the dam is, Its size is less amazing than the strange way they are building it. So much work is done from the air. overhead. Stand below the dam, in what used to be the bed of the Colorado, and look up. You see the air filled with men flying about like trapeze performers. They swing dizzily about on the ends of long cables dangling from aerial trucks that ride around the sky on fat steel ropes stretched from rim to rim of the vast abyss. On the canyon rims are towers, to which these long steel ropes are an. chored; and, to let the aerial trucks travel up and down the canyon as well as actos and back, the t vers then: selves move alonz under their own power. This Is so that men, tools, ce ment, and steel can be moved from the canyon rims and lowered at just the right spot where they are wanted on top of the rising dam. Still more ropes hanz down close to canyon walls, with a man seated in a boatswain’s chair swinging on the low er end of each rope. ‘These men are “high-sealers."” ‘Their task Is to chip loose rock of the face of the cliffs Among these were some 30 Apaches. picking away at lofty niches where even the cliff dwellers of former days would have felt giddy. “Our high-sealers have worn out nearly 300 miles of rope.” says the su perintendent who represents the con: tractors and has built dams all over America. “How do you pick daredevils fer that ticklish job?" you ask. | “We watch an applicant's face the first day he's ordered! over the rim and down a rope. If he's nervous, we call ‘him back.” Like high-sealers snd other workers, the visitor, too, wears the iron helmets issued to everybody here, to save hen:Is from falling stones. Flying Concrete “Agitator.” High above you, as you talk, comes sailing @ giant humming creature, for all the world like a ten-ton bumblebee, with two men riding on it, A. flying concrete “agitator” it is, run by its ‘own motor and stirring the cement in side to keep it liquid till the machine swinzs to thé place where it is to be dumped. “You call it a big bumblebee.” says the superintendent. “To me it's more ike a mud dauber.” ‘What is sour hardest problem here?” you ask. “To keep our work in tune with the whims of this mad river.” he answers Draining seven states, the Colorado is about 1,650 miles long, and may rise ‘or fall with dramatic suddenness. ‘The lake male when the dam is fin ished will cover some 227 square mile= of tand, and hold so much water that each person in the world could dip 5000 gallons from it. No water will run over the dam. Ex cess floods will be carried of throuzh spillway tunnels. ‘The rest, guided through other tunnels against the wa ter wheels, will be ample to generate 1,835,000 horse power, more than ans other hydroelectric plant has ever ee veloped. “Horse power” Is merely an eng neer’s phrase.
