Col. Fish Flays New Deal.
Easton. Pa.—In a new attack on the Roosevelt administration, Representative Hamilton Fish Jr. of N. Y. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

OWENS FLIES 100 IN 8.4 SECONDS!
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. Chapel, E. 130th St. near Abel Ave. The committee, a Communist organization with 20 members, claims to have the endorsement, of 14 Hungarian and 12 of our organizations, of its fight to re-open Woodhill swimming pool and bathhouse to ALL who desire to use it.

Just how long would a play like

be played on a stage among Ital-

WHY DIDN'T HE VETO IT?
Mayor Harry L. Davis’ alleged re-
tusal to sign the ordinance passed by
the City Council, a week ago Mon-
day night, turning over to the U. S.
government city property (streets) in
the Cedar-Central area, while pos-
sibly a graceful act did not have any
effect upon the ordinance, because
it became a law without his signa-
ture, 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 suffi-
cient reasons. ‘The new buildings in
the Cedar-Central area will be leas
‘ea by the government to local indi.
viduals who will carry out the south-
ern “erackers’" orders to bar our
people from the buildings (houses)
in the Cedar-Central area and restrict
them to rent in the Outhwaite area
which is to be a “fim-crow” affair
when it is completed, according to
‘announcement from Washington, D.
C., some weeks ago.

ENEMIES OF RECOVERY.
Citizens of the Nation who sin-
cerely have the welfare of their
country at hoart 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 inexplic-
able reason, too much attention has
been diverted from the major task.
There has been too much effort ex-
pended on reform, and not enough
‘on recovery. All of these bills that
call for fixing hours of work by fed-
eral statute and for subjecting 1a-
bor relations to federal boards, such
as the Black 30-Hour Week Bill and
the Wagner Labor Dispufes Bill, sim-
ply serve as snipers in crippling and
killing’ genuine recovery efforts. Let's
talk common sense. The Govern-
ment can’t buy recovery. ‘The expen-
ditures of millions and Villions of
the taxpayers’ dollars will not, can
not, restore prosperity. These ex-
penditures merely serve as a stop-
gap, temporary boost in employ-
ment, Recovery can come only thru
private employment, and that calls
for normal investment of private cap-
ital. Investment money flees from
disturbing and threatening laws. It
is useless to argue that such fear
ig groundless in the present in-
stances. Investors believe the Black
Bill avd the Wagner Bill would fur-
ther upset industry, cause fewer jobs
Hence, these bills are enemies of re-
covery. Perhaps they are not so in-
tended, That is not the point. All
of these reform measures are poorly
timed. They should be rejected until
recovery is attained. Then it will
ee sate oeeiier iam

EDITOR HAYES WRONG.
Max Hayes, editor of the Cleveland
Citizen and a member of the Metro-
politan Housing Authority, may not
know it, but he was certainly wrong
in his bitter attack upon Mayor Har-
ry L, Davis and Councilmen Finkle,
Payne, Bundy and Hubbard's atti-
tude toward the Cedar-Central hous-
ing 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 intro-
duce a repealer for the ordinance,
which he carried out, was a perfect-
ly correct proceeding trom our view-
point 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 Counell, in the future, to pun-
ish the members of the majority vote
that defeated their efforts to make
the federal government give the as--
surance desired. Hayes said he was
“disgusted with the obstructionist
tactics of the Mayor “and our repre-
sentatives 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 comment-
ing upon the matter, Mayor Davis
sald, 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 re-
gret is that he did not feel it suf-
ficiently, deeply and keenly to not
only refuse to sign the ordinance,
but to veto it as well, KILL IT. Edi-
tor 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 em-
ployment must be secured as a re-
sult of a denial of citizen-rights to
more than 80,000 law-abiding Amer-
ican citizen residents of this commu-
nity. They have rights that he and
all others of his kind should be
forced to respect, whenever neces-
sary.
MOVE WILBERFORCE SOUTH,
Some of the members of the fac-
uty of Wilberforce University, in the
last year or two, have stressed what
‘they term the institution's “dual
‘management,” having reference, we
take it, to the fact that the A, M. E.
Church connection controls and man-
‘ages the university with the excep-
tion of its “Combined Normal and
Industrial (“State”) Department,”
which of course is controlled by a
board of trustees. a majority of
whom! are appointed by the Governor
of Ohio, and the minority by the A.
M. E. Church connection. They are
assisted by a “board of control” (sev-
eral state officers). Recently, it
seems, Wilberforce University was
denied admittance to the North Cen-
tral Association after having made
application to be placed upon its ac-
credited list of schools. In explana-
tion of this, a report sent out from
Wilberforce, last week, announced
that “it is believed that the lack of
an adequate library, complete and
modern laboratories and the DUAL
MANAGEMENT were the main rea-
sons for rejection.” We may be
wrong but we do not believe that the
alleged “dual management” had any-
thing to do with the refusal. As a
matter of fact, the so-called “dual
management” has been the making
and is the salvation of the institu-
tion as it stands today. If it were
not for the generous appropriations
given to the Combined Normal and
Industrial (“State”) Department of
the university, finis for the institu-
tion (University) would have been
written, many years ago. Our advice
to the members of the faculty of the
University, who have brot forward,
in the last year or two, this “dual
management” talk, is to discontinue
it and abandon their desire to foist
Wilberforce University upon the
state of Ohio as a branch of the
State University “for Colored people
only.” Something that will never
be done! As a matter of fact, the
institution (Wilberforce University)
ought to be moved into the South-
land where it is needed. It is NOT
NEEDED in Ohio, as every one
‘knows. And those members of the
faculty who have been flirting with
the K. K. K. and prejudiced educa-
tors in and out of Ohio, nursing a
desire to see Wilberforce University
a segregated (“Jjim-crow") institu-
tion and a part of Ohio State Univer-
sity, are wasting time and effort.
‘The Combined Normai and Industrial
(“State”) Department of Wilber-
force University is open to all! It
cannot be otherwise under the laws
Of this state. If metfbers of the fac-
ulty of Wilberforce University and
others want it made a segregated in-
stitution—“for Colored people only"
—let them advocate moving it to the
southland where such an institution

10. Thoughts That Travel
‘The long centuries of development
of systems of sight and sound sig-
nals have been paralleled by another
evolution in the field of communica-
tion--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 type-
writer, this evolution runs without
interruption.
The history of writing consists of
a long roster of systems for the ex-
pression 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 al-
phabets 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 per-
manence, but that their thoughts,
when visibly expressed, might travel
<that man might send messages to
his fellow man.

Find Ohioin in San Francisco As He Is About to Sail For the Far East
A transcontinental telephone search saved an Akron man from making an unnecessary voyage to the Orient.
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.
