City, declares that the government's "free trade policy" threats to bring close dealing of factories and industries in Pennsylvania and other states. "I indict the New Deal administration on its record for the past year as the greatest failure in American history," he asserted at a meeting of Republican, last week Wednesday night. HEAR! HEAR!! MILTON ON.WHAT'S DOING As The Rounder said, some months ago, he again says that the Republic can vote allegedly cast for Sherif Sulzmann in the 11th, 12th and 17th Wards was never given him. Of course, the alleged Sulzmann vote was "counted" for him. There is no power except the power that would ever make that many "Negroes" in the wards mentioned vote for a democratic candidate for any office. And this is no secret, either. The mayor's order to the Jelfes to cut out the profane and blasphemous language in "Stevedore", and his refusal to sign the City Council ordinance affecting the city-owned streets in the Cedar-Central area, are so much alike they are twins—nothing to either one of them, and nothing to either the other. They might not be foolish enough to even think so, let alone say so. Both of them political bumcune (bumkum), pure and simple. Current rumor has it that members of St. James A. M. E. church are making strenuous efforts to have their pastor, Rev. David Ormande Walker, removed. If Rt. Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom, bishop of this, the third Episcopal district of the great A. M. E. Church, does not wake up in this matter pretty soon, the man who dwellings rapidly, will soon be nonest, as the Rev. Thos. H. Jackson, many years ago the exceptionally able pastor of St. John's A. M. E. church, used to love to say. When The Rounder announced in "The Old Reliable," last week, that there were only 68 persons present at the St. James forum meeting, last Sunday week, to hear Russell Jeliffe "explain" his sponsoring the giving of that vile, profane, obscene and blasphemous, Communist play, "Stevedore." The Rounder meant just what he said, because he counted them. Moreover, I repeat, young or old "Negroes," male or female, who can possibly say that the rotten "Stevedore" is "a good play" ought to have their heads examined because the statement is an indication that they might be placed in the "observation ward" of Sheriff Johnny Sulzmann's "playhouse." When Dr. James K. Nickens read some of "Stevedore's vile, profane and blasphemous sentences at the Forum meeting, Sunday afternoon week, he sure staggered many of the 68 persons present. Several weeks ago when the vile and rotten play, "Stevedore," was being given at the Jellife Karamu theater, a city fire-warden after looking thru the old storeroom, announced thru the local daily newspapers that it was "a fire hazard" and naturally unfit for use. This was the reason for the mayor's decision because the mayor permitted the vile play to go on regardless of his 'order' to strike out the profanity in it. For nearly two weeks carpenters have been working in the place, evidently in an effort to comply with orders from the city building inspector's department. This undoubtedly as a result of the fire warden's inspection and report. Very few of our carpenters were in the place, the attendance being almost wholly poor white people (or 'grey' as Clarence Darrow would say), who love to hear "Negroes" referred to as "niggers, coons, darkies," etc. By the way, the Jellife staged another "nigger" play known as "Marschau," opening at Karamu theater, Wednesday evening of this week, to rattle Sunday's great "treat" about social agitation and social agitation the "Neighborhood Association." Ex. 388th Pl. Playhouse Settlement! SOUTHERN SENATORS Killing the Costigan-Wagner Anti-Lynching Bill Just as "The Gazette" Predicted. Washington, D. C., Anti-lynching bills are "reflections on the South" declaring that the United States Congress, last week. This, in essence, was the broadside launched by the southern senators against the Costigan-Wagner measure. Senator Smith of South Carolina and Senator George of Georgia led the attack, declaring that they were unconstitutional and a "reflection on the South," which openly quilted himself with the lynchmen. He delivered an impassioned and claptraporation upon the necessity of protecting the "virtue of southern white womanhood" against rapists, assumedly "Negro-rapists." "Certain acts committed (lynchings) he declared, 'are beyond the reach of any court or jury in the opinion of any right-minded man or woman." Hence, any anti-lynching bill, according to Senator Smith is an "open reflection on the South" and further that "no one shall violate the purity of southern white womanhood" and that "no one shall violate Senator George sputtered and fumed, stating that federal anti-lynching legislation was unconstitutional." Doings of the Race Patrolman Clarence Lee of the St. Louis police force, was promoted to detective-sergeant, last week. Harry T. Burleigh, St. George's P. E. choir baritone, N. Y. city, sang "The Palms" for the 41st year, Easter Sunday. Col. Benj. O. Davis and a detachment of the famous 9th U. S. calvary will lead the Elks' parade in August at Washington, D. C. Mrs. John C. Dance, widow of a former Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, was found dead ("murdered"), recently, in her home at Washington, D. C. Atty. Armond W. Scott (Dem.) has been appointed to succeed James A. Cobb as a judge of the "Muny" court of Washington, D. C. Nina Mae McKinney, musical comedy star, worked two weeks in the current Jean Harlow film, "Reckless"—but the cutting editors deleted all but one scant flash of the dancer in the film. Jesse Binga, head of Binga State Bank of Chicago, which collapsed, June, 1930, was sent to the Illinois penitentiary, last week, to serve a sentence of from 1-10 years for embezzlement. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the president, told a mass-meeting in Metropolitan A. M. E. church, Washington, D. C., April 14, '35, "that one group can not prosper while another is down-trodden." Langston Hughes, poet, of this city who now calls Carmel, Calif., his home, one of five award-beneficiaries of $200,000 in search and creative work granted, April 14 by the Guggenheim Foundation Fellowships in education in far western states. Congressman Arthur Wm. Mitchell, (Dem.) of Chicago, made his maiden speech in Congress, last week. He talked eight minutes in favor of old age pensions and made a good impression. Our California women are denouncing him because of his stand on lynching, exposed in a speech at Morris Brown college, Atlanta, Ga. SOLD ROTTEN MEAT-LOAF! A Quincy Ave. storekeeper Threatened with "Works" for Next Offense—Arrested 4 Times. Fifteen days in the workhouse is the penalty David Duke, grocer at 6104 Quincy Ave, will have to pay if city food inspectors find cause for complaint against his store again. In court for the fourth time, Duke was given a suspended fifteen-day sentence and a fine of $25 and costs by Municipal Judge Frank J. Lausche, Saturday, for offering decomposed meat loaf for sale. Duke has been convicted of selling bad meat, once for failing to shop clean, and once for capping bottles of sour milk with fresh-dated caps. Duke lives in Overlook Rd., Cleveland Heights.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS JOHN DAVIS SCORES NRA AND FERA "JIM CROWISM." Washington, D. C.—Appearing as a representative of the NAACP before the Senate Finance Committee, April 16, Atty. John P. Davis of this city scored the administration of federal relief and NRA code differentials which have sunk our people of the South farther into poverty and degradation. He declared that 12 per cent more money may be collected 1933 when NRA began. At that time 17.8 per cent of them were on relief. The figure now is in excess of 29 per cent, he said. Protesting against southern wage differentials in codes, Davis mentioned the case of the fertilizer industry in Delaware which employs largely our workers. In order to pay them less, Delaware is listed as a southern state, though for other industries it is considered in the north and workers are paid accordingly. Replying to a question by U. S. Sen. Kaine Davis pointed out that where our workers organize, their wages are higher. Intimidation keeps most of them from joining unions in the South, however, he said. Referring to delays and discriminations in cases affecting our workers, Davis related that after 15 months of pressure to remedy a code wage violation in the case of 134 of our women, formerly employed by the Maid Well Garment Co. of Forrest City, Ark., the case is still pending. The ABO-American Bureau, NRJ, boards makes it easy to discriminate against us in labor disputes. Davis called for outlawing of company unions; labor representation on compliance boards; a national minimum wage, based on annual labor income; abolition of occupational, geographical and other wage differentials; and outlawing of any differentials based on race. Prime Sport News The triple Olympic winners are two "Afros," Ralph Metcalfe and Ed Gordon, spinner and broad jumper, respectively. When Joe Louis lands in New York in June for his bout with Primo Carrena, he will put on a benefit exhibition bout, at $1 a head, at Stillman's gym, for aged Sam Langford who has been losing his sight for several years. Louis Registers Kayo No. 15. Dayton, O—Joe Louis of Detroit, heavyweight title contender, knocked out Biff Bennett (white) of Chicago in the first round of a scheduled 10-round battle here. Monday night, It was his fifteenth knockout since turning professional 10 months ago. Louis vs. Levinsky Chicago, Ill.—A match between Joe Louis and Chicago's irrespressible King Levinsky is in the making. The latter, home again after that two-round knockout administered by Champ Max Baer, has been offered the opportunity by local promoters of trying to halt on May 10, in the Chicago stadium, Louis' rush toward the championship. Sam Regains His Sight. New York City.—They took the bandages off Sam Langford's right eye, Wednesday, and for the first time in five years he saw. The battler, whom many considered the world's best boxer, couldn't talk much about it. He just lay on his cot at the Neurological Hospital on Welfare Island repeating, "It's wonderful—just wonderful." Additional Local Mrs. Lillie Mason is visiting in her former home, Pensacola, Fla. Because she failed to attend a hearing before Police Prosecutor Pigrowicz and as the result of a hot argument over the 'phone with the assistant prosecutor, two police-men were hounded, April 15, after Jane Hewlett, secretary of the P. W. A. As a result of this "untoward" incident, Pigrowicz and his coworker, Assistant Police Prosecutor Perry B. Jackson, who apparently had very little to do with the matter, were made to call upon Miss Hunter at the P. W. A. and apologize for the lack of consideration she had been given by them. Charles S. Welch, age 29, a graduate of Central High and later a redcap at the Union Terminal who has been studying vocal at the Cleveland Institute of Music for four years, will make his debut in the role of a notary at the annual opera production of the institute tomorrow at the Little Theater of Public Hall. He says the first singing he ever did was in a convent school at Macon, Ga. At Central, Miss Anna Waterman, a teacher, was very helpful to him. Twice he appeared in down-town theaters—at the Stillman and a theater understudy who was understudy for Jules Blech—so-called opera, "Tom-Tom" presented at the stadium three years ago.

Starts Twenty Yards From Tape in a Running Start and Is Clocked by a Full Second Under the World Record. —Columbus, O. J. Owens, who holds the world indoor broad jump record of 25 feet 9% inches, running a measured 100 yards here, Monday, in 8.4, came out with a tie, even if it is unofficial, of the world's fastest human. He made the mark from a running start and his time is three-tenths of a second under the best time anyone else A. has ever been given credit for. O. S. U. Coach Snyder said at the finish: "Jess can beat that mark. I think he can cut a tenth, maybe two-tenths of a second off it. In this effort he averaged 35.71 feet per second thru the 100 yards, and that's almost flung. Owens has been ill with a heavy cold for two weeks. When he started working out again, one day last week, he ran 220 yards around one turn in 21.5 seconds. This is three-tenths of a second lower than Ralph Metcalfe's world record. The lad is threatening all the world sprint records. On the night of May 4 at the meet to be held under the stadium floodlights, one of the features of O. S. U.'s sprint festival, Owens will run both sprints, the low hurdles and will break-jump. He had several practice broad-jumps around the 26-foot mark, recently, and has his eyes set on Chuchei Nambu's world mark of 26 feet 2½ inches. "Ohio State" at Drake Columbus, O.—Like a bombshell, an announcement came a few days ago from Drake officials that Owens and the Ohio State track stars would compete there, April 26 and 27, despite advance publicity from Penn that they would entertain the Buck speedsters. The decision to go to the Drake meet at Des Moines, Ia., followed a poll of members of the Buck team. University athletic officials intimated they are seeking to build a stronger relationship with Drake, which will appear on the Ohio State football schedule, this fall. MARY McL. BETHUNE Greeted by a Large Audience—Her School Work Supported From the Very Beginning by a Leading Local Business Man. St. James A. M. E. church was packed, late Sunday afternoon, to hear the celebrated Mary McLeod Bethune, president of Bethune-Cookman college. She is a very interesting speaker and greatly pleased the large audience. She told how Thos. H. White, president of The White Machine Co. of this city, thirty-one years ago, helped her establish her school and continued his financial assistance until he death. He even provided in his will for continued yearly support of the school. Bethune-Cookman college has an enrollment of 350, a high school and an elementary school in a territory where about 100,000 of our young people await education. Mrs. Bethune was accompanied by a male quintet which also sang for the Women's City club and at a City Club luncheon. The Mt. Pleasant Neighborhood Committee's executive committee officers are Mrs. Maude White, chairman; Mrs. E. D. Garner, Sec.; Mrs. L. Lee, treasurer; Mesdames Price, Holzman, Messrs. Somerset and Wilson. The next public meeting will be held in Quinn A. M. E.

SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 1935. Won't somebody tell "leading Negro" Democrats what their southern "cracker" allies are doing to the Costigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill in the U. S. Senate and what the Roosevelt administration's NRA codes are doing for their people in the South? The "NDs" don't seem to know. --- Perry W. Howard, president of the Mu-So-Lit club of Washington, D.C., and Republican national committee from Mississippi, says Editor Robert Vann, of the Pittsburg Courier and a special assistant U. S. attorney general, lied, recently, when he said Congressman A. W. Mitchell of Chicago waved his pay-check in the club, and later was robbed of it. Mitchell and Vann are leading "Negro" Democrats. Now, isn't that just too bad? --- Just how long would a play like "Stevedore," or even "Marshland," be played on a stage among Italians, Irish or Jews, if such miserably insulting terms were used to designate either of the races named as were used in "Stevedore" or are being used in "Marshland" when so-called "Negroes" were and are referred to? And would you find any Italian, Irishman or Irishwoman or Jew referring to it as "a good play"? Let the Jeliffes try their "money-making" stunt among them, and see what would happen! WHY DIDN'T HE VETO IT? Mayor Harry L. Davis' alleged refusal to sign the ordinance passed by the City Council, a week ago Monday night, turning over to the U. S. government city property (streets) in the Cedar-Central area, while possibly a graceful act did not have any effect upon the ordinance, because it became a law without his signature. The act that would have been effective is his VETO. That would have killed the ordinance. As it is, the Mayor's refusal to sign it only completed the defeat of Councilmen Payne, Finkle, Bundy and Hubbard who opposed it for good and sufficient reasons. The new buildings in the Cedar-Central area will be leased by the government to local individuals who will carry out the southern "crackers" orders to bar our people from the buildings (houses) in the Cedar-Central area and restrict them to rent in the Outhashue area which is to be a "jim-crow" affair when it is completed, according to announcement from Washington, D.C., some weeks ago. ENEMIES OF RECOVERY. Citizens of the Nation who sincerely have the welfare of their country at heart are unanimous in the hope that the launching of the renewed employment program under the four-billion-dollar fund will focus attention again upon the paramount problem—that of providing jobs for the unemployed. For some inexplicable reason, too much attention has been diverted from the major task. There has been too much effort expended on reform, and not enough on recovery. All of these bills that call for fixing hours of work by federal statute and for subjecting labor relations to federal boards, such as the Black 30-Hour Week Bill and the Wagner Labor Dispuis Bill, simply serve as snipers in crippling and killing genuine recovery efforts. Let's talk common sense. The Government can't buy recovery. The expenditures of millions and billions of the taxpayers' dollars will not, can not, restore prosperity. These expenditures merely serve as a stopgap, a temporary boost in employment. Recovery can come only thru private employment, and that calls for normal investment of private capital. Investment money fees from disturbing and threatening laws. It is useless to argue that such fear is groundless in the present instance. Investors believe the Black Bill and the Wagner Bill would further upset industry, cause fewer jobs. Hence, these bills are enemies of recovery. Perhaps they are not so intended. That is not the point. All of these reform measures are poorly timed. They should be rejected until recovery is attained. Then it will be time enough to consider them- EDITOR HAYES WRONG. Max Hayes, editor of the Cleveland Citizen and a member of the Metropolitan Housing Authority, may not know it, but he was certainly wrong in his bitter attack upon Mayor Harry L. Davis and Councilmen Finkle, Payne, Bundy and Hubbard's attitude toward the Cedar-Central housing project. The Mayor was right in his refusal to sign the ordinance vacating the streets in the Cedar-Central area but did not go far enough. HE SHOULD HAVE VE TOED IT! Finkle's threat to introduce a repealer for the ordinance, which he carried out, was a perfectly correct proceeding from our viewpoint or standpoint, with Hayes to the contrary, notwithstanding. The ordinance ought never to have been passed until the federal government gave assurance that there would be no discrimination in renting the buildings of its housing project when completed, and if Finkle, Payne, Bundy and Hubbard are as sincere in their opposition, as we hope they are, they will use their votes in the City Council, in the future, to punish the members of the majority vote that the members of their efforts to make the federal government give the assurance desired. Hayes said he was "disgusted with the obstructionist tactics of the Mayor "and our representatives in City Council. He isn't half as disgusted as we are with that Republican-Democratic majority vote in that august body that passed the ordinance, regardless of the civil rights of over 80,000 Afro-American residents of this city. In commenting upon the matter, Mayor Davis said, the first of the week, that he "did feel that the government should have taken a definite position with regard to discrimination against race, color and creed." What we regret is that he did not feel it sufficiently, deeply and keenly to not only refuse to sign the ordinance, but to veto it as well. KILL IT. Editor Hayes' desire to help secure more work for the unemployed, as soon as possible, in the Cedar-Central area is not to be commended, if the employment must be secured as a result of a denial of citizen-rights to more than 80,000 law-abiding American citizen residents of this community. They have rights that he and all others of his kind should be forced to respect, whenever necessary. MOVE WILBERFORCE SOUTH THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. APRIL 27. 1935.

Thoughts That Travel The long centuries of development of systems of sight and sound signals have been paralleled by another evolution in the field of communication—that of the art of writing. From the days when prehistoric cavemen scratched crude pictures upon bits of bone, or upon the walls of their crude dwellings, down to the present age of fountain pen and typewriter, this evolution runs without interruption. The history of writing consists of a long roster of systems for the expression of thought in visible form: the hieroglyphics of the Egyptians, the curious wedge-shaped characters of the Assyrians, the complicated idea-symbols of the Chinese, the alphabets of Phoenicia and ancient Greece and those in which the words of modern man are written. On papyrus, on tablets of clay and wax, on parchment, on paper, men have written in many languages, not alone that they might record their thoughts and thus give them permanence, but that their thoughts, when visibly expressed, might travel—that man might send messages to his fellow man.

A few hours before the Ohioan was to sail for Japan, his father, in Akron, learned that the young man's company had decided not to send him to the Far East, but instead wanted him to return to Akron. The father knew his son was in San Francisco, but that was all. He called The Ohio Bell Telephone Company in Akron and the long distance search began. Discover Taxi Number In San Francisco, telephone operators called hotels, the Y. M. C. A. restaurants, barber shops, and had messages flashed on the theatre screens and announcements made from church pulps . . . but to no avail. As the time of sailing drew near, a dozen operators in Akron, San Francisco and intermediary points were held overtime keeping all lines between the two points clear for the message. Finally, when hope of reaching the Akronite was fading, the San Francisco operators learned the license number of a taxi, in which he was riding, from a hotel checkroom clerk. Police cruisers, notified by radio, pursued and overtook the taxi, and the young man was soon talking by telephone with his father in Akron. Before ELECTRICITY became a MESSENGER 2. Whistles That Speak Of all sound signals, one of the most commonly used is the whistle, produced either with the lips alone or with the addition of fingers to add to the volume of the sound. Akin to the whistle are all forms of wind instruments, in which sound is produced by resonating an air cavity. Some of these, like the ram's horn of the ancient Hebrews and the trumpet of the Greeks and Romans, have been used for communication, particularly for military purposes, as the bugle is today. The mountaineers of Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, have a whistling language by which they are able to carry on extended and complicated conversations. One authority declares that these natives whistle and pronounce the syllables of their spoken language at the same time, thus actually conveying words to their listeners. An expert Gomera whistler can make himself heard a distance of three or four miles. ```markdown ``` We colored Americans' worst present blunder is use of the word Negro as a prox name.
