Marriages, Deaths, Etc. WILBERFORCE—The A. M. E. Church electoral college, for the Springfield, Columbus and Cincinnati districts of the Ohio Conference, to elect six lay delegates to the general conference, May, 1936, in New York City, met at Trinity A.

Henderson of Frankfort, and Dr. C. F. Keller of Springfield. CINCINNATI—One of the features of the Elks' annual state convention here will be their annual High School pupils oratorical contest which will be held, June 8, directed by Chairman Geo. W. Thompson of Akron. The winner will compete in the regional contest, in July, and if successful will be given a scholarship in a college of his own choice and the right to participate in the national contest, held at the nation's capital, in August. Dr. R. E. Beamon is local chairman of the educational committee of Alpha lodge. YOUNGSTOWN—Rev. John Irvin, P. E., preached at Oak Hill A. M. E. church, morning and evening, Sunday.

The program for Wednesday evening included two one-act plays presented by young folk of Spring Street Branch "Y", Columbus. The community chair directed by Victor Johnson and the choral staff were directed by Cha S. Wallace, were also on the program. A warskit by Wilberforce University students, with Paul Smith's orchestra, was also a feature of the festival. Last evening, a barn-dance was given at Masonic Hall and a program rendered at Wiley M. E, church by Clark Branch "Y"; Mrs. Hugh Taylor, chairman.—Quite a number of our young folk spent Sunday in Cincinnati and Toledo. Doings of the Race Mexican authorities have just issued an order removing all restrictions against our people entering Mexico either as students or as tourists. Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell ought to have been the last man in the U. S. House of Representatives to introduce a resolution to investigate Howard University, a race institution. Nine Chicago policemen have been sued for $10,000 damages on a charge of being responsible for the death of Jas. Troutman, who died in Joilel prison, June 29. 21 from any received prior to his commitment. A similar suit has been filed against other Chicago policemen by Daniel and Ruby Watkins for entering their apartment and attacking them. Mrs. Watkins is probably injured for life as a result of the beating administered. HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING Councilman Hubbard is being held responsible for Chas. S. Taylor's loss of a position with the board of elections. Add this to Hubbard's Bryant gasoline station trouble. Future Outlook League members, who are so glibly criticizing "The Old Cleveland colored residents," are making a foolish mistake and are not promoting the harmony among our people that is so essential to the success of any effort in their behalf. Assistant City Law Director Charley White's salary has been raised to $3,240 and Assistant Police Prosecutor Perry Jackson's, to $2,100. The pay of their associates in the departments were also raised. Mr. Marc Grossman, head of the CCRA, should give the jobs their wives hold as "workers" in that department to some of our people out of employment and "on relief," don't you think? Go to him at once and ask for the job. It pays well. A few days ago, Dr. J. K. Nickens, of this city, who for many years traveled and lectured throughout the country, said to The Rounder "in stead of knocking the other race for not employing more of our people, we should go into business, create jobs, SUPPORT OUR BUSINESS ENTERPRISES! Something we don't do. There are 75,000 of our people in Cleveland, four persons to the family, we have 7,500 families who have worked week for groceries sets of all kinds. This amounts to $210,000 a week, or $10,922,000 a year. Estimated profits, one-fifth which amounts to $218,400 in one year. That would give us plenty of jobs." Think it over. The "nigger" play, "Marsland" given, recently, at the Karamun theater by The Gilpin Players, under the direction of the Russell W. Jelffies, was not the financial success anticipated, it seems. This doubtless explains the fact that the St. Louis Woman and another of the stars was given this week, at the theater. Very few of our people attend these plays because they please most the prejudiced class of poor white people who attend them. The Players of the theater are a part of the Neighborhood Association, supposedly a character building organizational Fund has been subsidizing. This should be stopped if indeed it has not already been done. In his talk Sunday morning at St. James A. M. E. church, Bishop R. C. Ransom sad, speaking of the pastor of the church: "Rev. Walker is one of the most outstanding ministers of the country". The Rounder would like to ask the bishop what does that amount to, if Walker's pastorate is injuring the church and his fight on behalf of the church, by an enterprise which members of the race are trying to make a success for the main purpose of supporting a family of four persons? This fact makes loyal members of St. James church, and others of our residents of the city, seriously question the bishop's statement that "Walker is one of the most outstanding ministers of the country". Many only for the good and welfare of the church but also our people of this community, that Walker be sent elsewhere by the bishop just as soon as possible. Mr. and Mrs. Russell Cross have opened our finest soda grille, ice cream parlor and club center at 7504 Cedar Ave. It is really a credit Cleveland regards, regardless of the class or encouraging the Gazette wishes them great success ABYSSINIA BEING "FRAMED"! So Il Duce Can Make Some More "Protests", Claiming Ethiopian Raids Are Being Made On His Troops Adjacent to the Abssynian Border. Augusto Rosso, the Italian ambassador to this country, who is visiting in Cleveland, isn't ready, it seems, to say what the outcome of the Italian-Abyssinian trouble will be. "Here," said he, Monday, "we have a continent—Africa—bordering on overpopulated Europe — a large country still closed, its doors almost hermetically sealed, to any activity of the white man. "From a philosophical and historical point of view, it is inevitable that Abyssinia must sooner or later open its doors to the activities of European countries. That is the Emperor Haile Selassie. course of history, of progress, for if continents had remained closed in the past, there would be no America, there would be no Australia, there would be small progress as we know it. "For many years Italy has tried to persuade Abyssinia to give us the possibilities of opening this pacific work, but we have always met a stubborn resistance. The Abyssinians are a very proud, very warlike living still in a kind of feal form of government, so that when we were dealing with the central government in Addis Ababa, we were not dealing with the country as a whole, for the war lords are scattered all over the country." Home—Italy has "worked up" another (old) grievance against Ethiopia—an official charge that natives attacked Italian native troops on the Erlitrean border, last week Friday, killing 30 and a dislaborated 100. The Italian forces been stationed in the vicinity of Dancall to protect natives dwelling in the area. The Ethiopians are said to have stolen several thousand head of cattle before withdrawing from the frontier. The "official statement" also charged that 30 undetermined losses after an attempt to invade the Italian military zone near Bubel, in Italian Somaliland. Official circles said the incidents (framed) did not necessarily mean that the war machine Italy has assembled in East Africa would be sent to the region. The French and Selassie's tribesmen. Of course not. It was explained that the government would first demand satisfaction through diplomatic channels. The latest developments in the situation arose as the Italian press was charging Great Britain with aiding Ethiopia. The authoritative Giornale of the Italian press not only lending the emperor moral encouragement but also furnishing him arms. Germany and France are doing the same thing. "FATHER DIVINE." "Father Divine," said an interviewer of this modern god, "tells you frankly that he has no age." "I have always been here on earth," he declares simply. "And always will be until the end of the earth." "Does that mean you will never die?" "That is exactly what I mean," said Mary. "I will be right in a Matter is indestructible." The public never knew he was here until several years ago, when he gathered into his fold a few black and white "faithful Marys" and they began to spread the glad tidings and great joy of a new found savior. Dowie, the world renowned god of 30 years ago who "would never die" was succeeded in the Holy City near Chilcotin colony where he remains with the world forever—W. P. Dabney, Editor, "The Cincinnati Union," writing his paper from N. Y. City.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS NGRESS ECONOMIC NATURE JOHN P. DAVIS ARRANGEMENTS ME ARE BEING PERFECTED. ing of 250 Persons From Various Country—The "New Deal" as applies to Our Workers. OF AN ECONOMIC NATURE LED BY ATTY. JOHN P. DAVIS ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE SAME ARE BEING PERFECTED. Preliminary Meeting of 250 Persons From Various Sections of the Country—The "New Deal" as It Applies to Our Workers. Washington, D. C.—A week or so ago some 250 people coming from eighteen states and the District of Columbia spent three days in a candid survey of our position in the National economic crisis. They represented some fifty or sixty interracial organizations. They were professionals, churchmen, workers, teachers, farmers, students, social workers, and others. I will list all the conference the entire picture of what the "New Deal" has meant to the Negro was given. Such facts as these came to the foreground: That unemployment among our male industrial workers is 20 per cent higher than general unemployment. That four million are on relief rolls, or twice as many as there were about eighteen months ago. That relief given our families, as shown in 18 states, is all I know. Our states, is admitted by the government to be from two to ten dollars a month less than relief given families there of the same size. That the government excludes 15 out of every 23 of our citizens. That NRA meant nothing to our industrial workers and AAA had doomed our share croppers and tenant farmers to starvation. Facts like these were given both the estimate of the economy and the estimate of the economy work of the "New Deal" and by workers and farmers who had experienced effects of the "New Deal" in their daily lives. The conclusions from each side were much the same. Thus economists found that the steady rise in living costs nullified the theoretical wage increases. And a southern Negro worker pointed to the same thing in the same way: the increase in the price of fattack and a seven cent increase for cormal wipes out any wage increase NRA ever gave. Labor experts pointed to the "jim-crow" policies of leaders of the American Federation of Labor, which prevented our and white workers from effectively organizing together. A Negro steel worker, elected to the Democratic Party, voted of his white fellow workers, vividly portrayed how the upper-crust officials of the international read him out of the union. Farm experts brought cold logic and colder fact to bear on the government's efforts to end the drought that had failed to aid the 36 per cent of the southern Negro population which makes its living on the farm. Sharecroppers themselves gave even more Clearing to Begin Soon--That See tion "For Negroes". So Washington Announced, Several Months Ago. Work of razing 250 buildings on the site of the Outwasha housing project will begin next week. Officials of the Harris Wrecking Co. of Chicago reported to offices of the housing division of the public works administration here that they had been awarded the demolition contract and were ready to begin work before the end of the week. The company will employ about 150 workers, whether Chicagoans or Clevelanders is yet to be determined. The Outwasha project, costing $3,000,000, will be constructed between Scovill and Woodland AVE. The buildings will be two or three stories in height and will contain 39 two-room apartments, 244 three-room apartments, 284 four-room apartments and 68 five-room apartments. They will cover only 23 per cent of the land. Playgrounds and recreation centers will be provided. Final drawings and designs for the new buildings are to be completed by June 20. Meanwhile, awarding of the contract for constructing the slum clearance buildings on the Cedar-Central project which is to be built in the district, is being awaited. The site has been cleaned for many weeks. New York City. — Negotiations have been virtually completed for a "million dollar fight" between Maxie Baer and Joe Louis in September, if they win their respective bouts before then, Promoter Mike Jacobs of the Twentieth Century club announced, Saturday. "We've been working on that bout for weeks," he said, "and now we've got it practically wrapped up. If Baer and Louis meet in September, they will draw more than $1,000,000." The bout would be staged at Yankee Stadium or the Polo Grounds. --- THE OUTHWAITE AREA Louis vs. Baer.

At the end of three days of such stark facts there was practically unanimous agreement that something ought to be done. Of course, there was no agreement to impose the remedy. But there was unanimity as to the need for a remedy. I had already proposed to a number of outstanding individuals the need for a National Congress. There was keen interest in this suggestion. After the conference had ended many of the delegates remained in the city to attend a short meeting to discuss a personal suit. Support for it came from many students and churchmen, from trade union officials and social workers. It was recognized that it must have popular support, must be an honest expression of what the masses of our people really think. It was felt that frank and open discussion, pro and con, must be had. But despite the difficulties to be encountered every person must be made the beginning must be made. And a beginning made. A small temporary committee of interested individuals was created. The purpose of this committee is carefully to prepare a draft proposal for such a Congress to be sent to hundreds of organizations and individuals for their frank criticism and appraisal. It is hoped that out of such discussion will come a common agreement as to what steps the committee will call for the Congress be issued. When such a call is issued it will represent the meeting of minds of thousands of individuals and organizations from all sections of the country. Thus this temporary committee is serving as a clearing house for the views and opinions of all persons sincerely interested in seeing concerted action on a wide national scale for the economic and political reasons. The opinion of every one is welcome and solicited. We want the public throughout the country to answer the vital questions, "Do We Need A National Congress?" and "What Shall Such A Congress Do?" Certainly no sincere person can object to having the widest public discussion on such pertinent questions. On being the committee, then, I invite the readers to participate in their opinions or inquiries to me at 1622 S St., N. W., Washington, D. C. (Attorney) John P. Davis. OFFICERS ELECTED For Next Season—Ransom's Address Closes the Forum for This Season. Bishop R. C. Ransom, in his address at St. James Forum, last Sunday afternoon, said: "American Christianity has disherited the Negro socially, economically, industrially and politically. The darker races of the world and the Negro, who is our present concern, are standing between the appeal of Christ and Communism for future allegiance of world control. While Communism will withstand without distinction of race or color, it is far preferable for the race to follow the teachings of Christ rather than those of Karly Marx." The bishop's address closed the forum's season. At a business session, J. F. Morning was elected president for the 1935-36 season; J. D. Shackelford, first vice-pres.; Raphael Donata, second; Mrs. Wylla Allen, sec.; Mrs. Clara Holt, treas.; John McCormack, Patterson, assist; Ethel Johnson, assistant; Roberts and Rev. David Ormond Walker, ex. directors. STEADY EMPLOYMENT Given Jess Owens' Father by the President of the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company.

Crawford, president of The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company, sent Mr. Owens to work, last week Mr. Owens went to work, last week Wednesday morning, at the Rockwell garage of the company.

Few of our workers were employed in the clearing of the Cedar-Central housing area and it now looks as if still fewer will get employment in the Outhwaite area where work is to be started next week. 1 Premier Mussolini is trying hard “to make a case” against Ethiopia and, according to our way of think- ing, is trying to do so as the result of fake “raids” which he charges, ever and anon, are made on his na- tive troops of the Italian colony in northern Africa adjacent to Ethiopia. Secretary Walter White of the NAACP, charges Dr. G. Lake Imes of ‘Tuskegee Ala, Institute with being a WEN, or “Uncle Tom", a more gen- erally used reference, and objects to Imes’ appointment as administrative assistant to L. C. Marshall, executive secretary of the National Industrial Recovery board. If the charge is true, we certainly join Secretary White in protesting the Imes ap- pointment. It fs said that Mr. Imes’ activity in the Montgomery, Ala., Southland Mfg. Co. case “evoked nation wide condemnation of our press and gublic”. It seems that Dr. Imes favors lower wages for our workers ia the South than is paid others. —i101— HELP BRING THE GIRLS. Dr. Mary F. Waring of Chicago, president of our National Associa- tion of Women, Inc., is appealing for funds to pay the expenses of a girls band from Mississippi to Cleveland for the national annual meet to be held here. The members of the band range in age from nine to eighteen years. A fund of $500 is needed to do thio, Mrs, Waring writes that she already has a pledge of $50 and asks all of our organizations, able to do so, to contribute—trom $1 up. She is anxious that the organzation makes a fine showing in Cleveland and is right when she says “nothing helps so much as (good) music”. Send your contributions, or that of your organization's, to Mrs. Mary F. Waring, president, N. A.C. W., 4557 Michigan Ave., Chicago, Ill. —a— THE REAL HARLEM. _ Ever since that riot in Harlem, several months ago, the outside world has been learning that that section of N. Y. City is not by far what we have heretofore been led to believe it was. The latest infor- mation fs to the effect that unem- ployment there is greater than in ‘other sections of the city, that “the housing situation is extremely criti- cal”, and that “the state of obso- lescence and disrepair is quite xen- eral in Harlem”. Then, too, “the rentals are much higher than for similar living accomodations _ in other sections of N, Y. City”. This is a very different situation from the one we have for many years been Jed to believe existed in Harlem. The foregoing and many more facts of prime interest, were brought out at ‘@ recent hearing of Mayor LaGuar- dia’s investigating committee. It is hoped to secure federal funds for a greatly needed housing project. ——— ‘CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITATIONS FOR NRA. The pational atmosphere ts greatly clarified by the Supreme Court's opinions that branded as unconstitu- tional the NRA, the Frazier-Lemke Farm Mortgage Moratorium Act, and the President's removal of the late William E. Humphrey from the Fed- ‘eral Trade Commission. The Court went straight to the heart of New Deal reforms when it said. “extraordinary conditions may call for extraordinary remedies. But the argument necessarily stops short ‘of an attempt to justify action which Mes outside the sphere of constitu- tional authority. Extraordinary con- ditions do not create or enlarge con- stitutional power. The Constitution sstablished a national government with powers deemed to be adequate, as they have proved to be both in war and peace, but these powers of the nations! government are limited by the constitutional grants. ‘Those who act under these grants are not at liberty to transcend the imposed Umits because they believe that more or different power is necessary.” ‘The Court held that the Congress and the Administration exceeded their authority in the cases men- tioned above, just as they did in the Railway Retirement Act. ‘The Court simply told the Congress and the Administration that they, like previ- ous Legislative and Executive bodies, must operate within constitutional limitations. What the Court said re- garding the cases that have come before it applies with equal force, of course, to such legally unsound pro- posais as the Wagner Labor Disputes Bill, the Black 30-Hour Week Bill, the so-called Social Security Bill, and to other bills and executive orders that clearly exceed the constitutional Mmitations cited by the Court. Con- gress knows now, or should know, that these proposals are illegal. One question must be squarely faced now: Does Congress and the Administra- tion intend to accept in full faith the interpretations of the Constitution made by the Court created for that purpose, or will devious new methods be sought to circumvent Constitu- tional limitations? If daily news- papers are quoting the President cor- rectly, the latter seems to be the case. ——11i— LIBERIAN INDEPENDENCE A proposal to give Liberia, inde- pendent African republic, to Germany has been made by the leaders of the Union of South Africa. The posses- sion of Liberia with its rich soil, pri- meval forests, and untapped mineral Wealth is supposed to pacify Hitler's desire for colonial expansion. Li- beria has 2% million people in its 45.000 square miles. It has been a republic since 1847. In 1925 the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. ac- quired a concession of 1,000,000 acres of land for the raising of rub- ber, thus obtaining a controlling in- terest in the affairs of Liberia. The Proponents of the plan to turn Li- beria over to Germany, point out thé tragic and intolerable conditions now existing in that land under the control of the Firestone Co. Presi- dent Barclay of Liberia has recently “cemented the ties of friendship with the U. 8." by an agreement with the Firestone Co. “which undoubtedly has the backing of our State Depart- ment,” according to the Pittsburgh Courier (5-18-35). But the Fire- stone Co. may not find it convenient. to have Hitler as an overlord of Li- beria. - i CONSTITUTION SINKING? “Congress no longer renders even Up service to the Constitution and the public at large shows little inter- est in its future,” said Representative James M. Beck in a recent address before the New York City Bar As- sociation, He predicted that whether or not the Constitution will survive the assaults of centralized Federal power, due to the current depression, may well be decided in this genera- tion, “The great reality,” Mr. Beck de- clared, “is that we are today a totall- tarian’ socialistic State and differ in degree, although not in kind, trom the governments of Germany and Italy. It is true that on rare ocea- sions, the Supreme Court will remind the ‘Congress and the American people that a given law is in viola- tion of the Constitution, but such occasional decisions are merely the bubbles that rise to the surface of the waves. The fact is that our Con- stitutional form of government is as the Titanic was when it was struck by a submerged ice floe. Our Con- stitution has suffered a like wound, but would still be kept afloat if the captain and the crew, by which 1 mean the American people, were will- ing to defend their Constitution at all hazards and to make any sacri- fice necessary for that purpose. Of that disposition I can see no evi- dence.” ‘The original objectives visualized by the framers of the Constitution, Mr. Beck declared, have been lost to sight, mainly because of the grow- ing encroachment of Federal agencies —legislative, judicial and executive —upon State and individual freedom. “Whether the comparison be just or unjust,” he added, comparing in- dustrial conditions here with regi- mentation in Russia, Italy and Germany, “the result ‘of the NRA which regulates the factory, and the AAA, which regulate the farm, is potential economic slavery. It ‘de- sttoys not merely the right of the States in respect to their clearly feserved powers but the basic trec- dom of the individual to engage in lawful occupation.” AN OPPORTUNITY. “The Old Reliable Gazette de- sires an active agent and correspon- dent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents.

In other words, soils hav been made to give their own “dis tress” signals, as readable in thei way to agronomists of The Ameri- can Agricultural Chemical Com pany as railroad signals to train. men. Knowledge of soil types an¢ the previous crop history of the soil coupled with the plant food requirements is of course neces- sary for an interpretation of the results, but soil tests now make it possible to prescribe proper ele- nents within a reasonable limit of accuracy. The testing of soils today for their plant food deficiencies is a matter of thorough training, the proper chemicals, some test tubes and filter aper-—and a. good eye for color. Testing solutions have been developed which produce defi- nite shades of color in their reac- tion with the chemical constitu- ents of various soils, and the soil characteristics which these colors indicate have been carefully inves- tigated and charted. The tests thus Yield clues to soil composition which the “soil doctor” can act upon with a fair degree of cer- tainty. : For some years experiment sta- tion experts have been accumulat- ing data on plant. food elements utilized in the Production of wari. gus crops and the amount required for maximum yields under favor- able conditions. The degree of acidity or non-acidity—the pH value, as it is technically known— the forms of available nitrogen, phosphorus and potash, and the Presence of the so-called “rarer elements,” best adapted for vari- ous crops have been studied in de- tail, and their effects on crop production carefully determined. ‘How to make this knowledge of YOUeKNOW ME, AL IGUESS CONNIE HOOKED YOU @ND ME OP Sol COULD SHOW You @- ROUND.

One shade of blue indicates the pres- ence of phosphorus at the rate of ten pounds per acre; a deeper shape indicates fifty pounds per acre. These rates are determined by comparing the color of the solu- tion to color charts which have been properly correlated with ac- tual erop yields. Both field and laboratory soil tests are performed on application by agronomists of The Service Division of the American Agricul- tural Chemical Company. The BACKS BONUS BILL—James E.

These results of the soil test are taken as indica- tions, fairly accurate though in- conclusive, and it requires the skilled interpretation of the “soil doctor” with a wide background of agronomic puoanes to make recommendations which will be effective. The requirements of the crop to be grown on the soil and the soil type itself must be taken into consideration before prescrib- ing the plant foods necessary. A soil acidity OT erete may be too low for the production of truck or grains, but is advisable for pota- toes. Similarly, grain crops thrive best with particular quantities of phosphorus and potash in avail- able forms, and many crops will not grow to healthy maturity with- per oatpbaoiag A Word To the Wise Is Wasted 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 im the Onle \egislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry ©. Smith, editor of The Gazette, Just three yoars to secure ts enactment into ‘aw. ‘The Onto Supreme Court has several times upheld the constite- Honality of the law and it has been very effective. IUinois, Pennayivania ind New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violeace oF sntf-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other north. smn states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: Moxs. Section 6278. “Mob” and “lynching” defined 6279. “Serious injury” defined. 6380. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 5282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. $285. Order to include recovery and coats in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, ete., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. ‘Sanh Stemante tice cee Section 6278.

(93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such as- sault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the in- Jury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dol- lars; or, if such injury result in per- manent disability, to earn a liveli- hood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars, (93 v. 162 6.)

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 whieh the edi- tor 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, barbershop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommoda- tion and amusement, denies to a cit!- zen, 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, shali 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, oF 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 per- son aggrieved thereby to bs recor- ered in any court of competent juris- diction in the county where such offense was committed.

(although the owners of many large estates have felt the effect:-of world. depression and have been forced to curtail sharply their lving expenses. "Yet “modern housing” has made few inroads, x- cept In the Jarge cities; and the coun: try gentlefolk, as a rule, adhere close- ly to quaint traditions of homeliness inherited from their ancestors. Tt ts not so easy to know the Swedes well, especially the dwellers In the country, who for the most part stay ‘at home on their property. Foreigners are often led to think that they are stim and reserved, sometimes a lttle sullen or even haughty. But this should be interpreted rather as a sizn of their northern shyness. ‘They are in: reality full of fun and ot warm feelings: but when it is a question of showing the latter, their shrinking from Impulsive kestures and emotional. or grandiloquent languaze is both come and touching. ‘This Is one aspect in which the rela- tionship with the English is most clear- ly visible. Certainly the fetters are loosened somewhat when they are in a festive mood and have drunk a little wine. But it is not then that one gets closest to them. To know and value them fully, one must observe them within thelr own four walls, in thelr daily life and activities. Only In intimacy. free from allen, disturbing elements. does their charming individuality come to fall flowering. Swedish home life 1s a cult and a culture unlike anything else, the product of centuries of ten- der polishing and refining. And no- where has it attained such perfection ‘as in the old country ‘houses. ‘There still were families-which can maintain to some degree thelr former Juxurious standard of living. Some had the good fortune or the prudence not to invest their fortunes in the securl- tles which had later been affected by the crisis and the Kreuger crash. Oth- ‘ers had all their land leased on old and profitable contracts, so long as the ten- ants could keep up thelr payments But these were comparatively few and privileged exceptions. Big Landowners Suffer. If the situation ts serious for nearly everyone nowadays, it Is often catas- trophic for the great landowners and territorial magnates. Not » month passes but some of them have to leave home and property. ‘And where they stick to their old es- tates despite all their dificulties, ther often do so less for their own sake, but more in order not to abandon their retainers to unemployment. In the case of entailed estates there are of course no bankruptcies and forced sales, but it 1s not much more pleas ant fo be placed under the mannge- ment of banks and creditors. For Swedish agriculture ean no long- er pay its way. ‘There's the same con- filet between agriculture and indus: try as in most other countries: and it looks as if the former were getting the worst of it. A series of rellet schemes has been started to try to ald agriculture In Sweden, as elsewhere. But there has been no visible result thus far. An Intensive educational campaign has been set on foot; state advisers and controllers have been provided for ev- ery branch of forestry and agriculture. ‘There are such things as the milk ues, which are intended to make up the difference in price of the butter ‘whieh 1s sold at home and that which is exported at unduly cheap rates. Tt is hoped by such measures to keep the price of the former somewhat above production costs. Such ts also the alm of the new milling Inws, according to which no mil? may grind foreign grain without mixing with It a high percent- age of native grain. ‘An active agitation fs carried on for “puying Swedish” and for burning ‘Swedish wood in the heating apparatus of public institutions to reduce the im- portation of coal. Most of the medieval castles in Sweden are situated on heights sur- rounded by water or in otherwise {n- accessible places. Such placement, needless to say, was not due to any considerations for natural beauty. but because it afforded the most advan- tageous defense. For these strong stone houses nad developed direct from the prehistoric fortifications whose foundations are still found here and there. Fortresses Made Into Dwellings. When Sweden, ip the Sixteenth cen- tury, ceased to be disturbed by civil war, the gloomy and inhospitable for- tresses were gradually converted into dwelling houses. As time passed these grew more and more comfortable. and esthetic considerations became more decisive. Many of the most beautifal castles in Sweden date from this In. teresting transition period, From the beginning of the Seventeenth century Sweden was a great power, and re- tained one tilt Charles X's unlucky campaigns impoverished the country and put an end to its domination tn the Baltic. Among the medieval Swedish castles touching the early Renaissance style Skarhult, Vittskovle, and Torup are the most characieristic and best pre served. ‘They are in Skane, and were rebult in the Sixteenth century. Vittskovle and Torup are laid out ox a similar plan, with four wings round a courtyard, towers at diagonally op- posite corners, stepped gables and fir ing passages; and both were surround: ed for defense purposes by moats, over which drawbridges were lowered in olden times. At Torup these moats have been filled sinee the Eighteenth century along two of the facades, and replaced ‘by gardens Inid out in the old styl ‘with sculptures, rose pergolas, and box hedges. But the charmingly weath: ered brick walls are still reflected in ‘qulet waters, among water tites ané proud swans. ‘The courtyard at Torup, with it Gothie cloister and pointed arches, i: one of the most remarkable in. the country from the standpoint of art and history. A stone tablet 1s set into the wall over its gateway. Its Latin in- scription is dated 1632 and was com- ‘posed by the owner of the property at that time, Sigvard Grubbe, a scholar and a friend of the king. He calls up- on his successors, “whoever they may be.” to do all in their power, as he id, to preserve and beautify the an- elent building they have inherited. Baroness Coyet’s Estate. Probably none of them has been bet: ter equipped to carry out this injune- tion than its present owner, Baroness Henriette Coyet. On terms of close friendship with most of the members of the royal family, she loves to sur- round herself with eminent personall- les in various branches of art and scl ence, and she is a comprehending friend to them. Nobel prize winners and other for- eign celebrities are received at Torup ‘when they visit Sweden. The Swedes In general, the people of Skane in par- ticular, have felt themselves secure in the knowledge that no one could rep- resent them more worthily than this lively, highly cultured lady. Of course, so energetic a person does not content herself merely with social life and the management of her great house. Her Keenness for the promo: tion of local home industry and the preservation of local treasures has ben- efited the whole province.” The same may be said of her experience and taste in all that concerns gardening and the cultivation of flowers. The ex- tensive park of Torup. surrounded by Iaxuriant beech woods, the different beds, with old-fashioned roseries and herb gardens, are favorite goals of specialists and laymen for purposes of study. Ip the ancient guardroom, where tn old times the garrison of the castle sat by the loopholes and guarded the draw- bridge, there now hangs a remarkably fine collection of modern paintings. Fine Country Houses. Big country houses lle all along the seacoasts of southern Sweden, and stil! thicker in Vastergotland, so rich in an- clent memorials, south of Lake Vanern. On the northern side of the lake Is Varmland, whose old family legends and traditions have been made known far outside the boundaries of Sweden by Selma Lagerlof's poetical descrip- tions. But most of the great country houses of central Sweden, and the finest, are to be found in the provinces which abut on long Lake Malaren, at whose exit to the sea Stockholm ‘lies. It was there especially that the primeval people of Svea lived; thence sprang Rurik, who laid the foundations of Russia, and the Vikings who rav- aged the Mediterranean coasts; and it was there that Christianity was first introduced into Sweden. ‘Foundations and a few massive stone houses still survive from this lons- vanished time, and in certain cases the same family has lived on the same property for three or four centuries. There are estates, which, for 500, or sven 600 years, have been handed down from one generation to another with- yat ever being sold, though these. of ourse, are rare exceptions. Many le far from the towns, so that one of the modern thirst for super- jelal, exciting pleasures has yet found ts way to them; that is why the old Swedish traditions in all classes of clety are more firmly rooted there han anywhere else.

By CHERIE NICHOLAS E : C > EF ie ae¥ < | | Beg = BS | Ss F " bo i Lee She ’ — pd as pyre ip oh ae same also effectively used in the yo AT BE pertect costume tor all-around practical daytime wear has arrived! See it pictured herewith, It’s the dress with a Jacket that is fashioned of the now-so-stylish triple sheer print. ‘The smartest, the neatest, the most sensi- ble and serviceable, the most attrac- tive and best looking are befitting words when It comes to describing these Jacket outfits. ‘There is not the slightest doubt about the wisdom of including one of the new ingeniously designed jacketed costumes in one’s spring and summer wardrobe. It will prove an ever faithful standby ready for every daytime occasion. In the illustration we are showing three particularly good-looking models. They ‘are types that women can live in from morning to night and always look well groomed. ‘These brand new jacket styles are in that famous fabric, triple sheer of Demberg, which is expensive in looks but not in cost. ‘The material is pure aye, cool, washable, or dry-cleans per- fectly, if you so prefer. Furthermore, it may be pressed with a hot iron with- ‘out fear of pulling or slipping at the seams. And, oh, joy of joys, it Is prac- tleally wrinkle proof and resistant to perspiration. ‘The extremely good-looking jacket sult to the right in the group is the sort that is ready to go places at a moment's notice. White pique spa- ghetti cordings and fastenings effective- ly trim the navy-with-white (other col- ‘or combinations are available) sheer of bemberg material. Bandings of self- fabric are stitched row-and-row on a met foundation for the sleeves, the PLEATED SKIRTS IN CHIFFON NEW STYLE ‘The tidal wave that has brought in more width for skirts has also broughi in pleats. This type of fuller skirt is available in daytime and evening fash- ions, although the evening skirt ver- sion fs being seen more often at pres- ent. It is a fashion that may be said to have come out of the emphasis on floating chiffon skirts, for most of the pleated styles so far are done in chit. fon, ‘There is a particular genre in. chif- fon and pleats that goes with sunburst pleats, entire skirts and bodices also pleated—very Grecian, and reminiscent of the sunburst evening skirts which Mainbocher and Loulseboulanger of- fered in evening frocks at thelr open- ings. But there are other interpretations of the pleated idea, in front fullness ‘or back fullness, in those concentrated panel godets that are used often for adding width this season. Coarse Novelty Straws Take Lead in Milliner. It ts the way of hats to be anything and everything but ordinary. One ot the new lines—it’s Impossible to desig nate any one type as the newest—is the hat with a brim which projects for ward. Beret types are draped that way. Coarse novelty straws, some shiny, some rough, are everywhere, but 50, too, are Milans. There are aay num- ber of stitched taffeta hats and unus- ual felts. ‘The long threatened return of trim. ming has come. Milliners have fol: lowed the lead of the couturiere and are trimming with flowers. Formal Swagger Coat ‘The formal swagger coat is a pl. quant newcomer. Done in woolens that vary from black to palest blue, with full sleeves and soft collars, they flare and swing ubove the most elegant ‘af eitermnaen Grennee. ‘same also effectively used in the yoke of the dress. This treatment which has to do with appliques and stitehed band- Ings and folds of the dress print on net backgrounds is one which is being played up by designers throughout cur- rent styling. A flattering Jacket costume In a new flower-patterned triple sheer with col- lar of organdie applique on a founda- tion of mousseline de sole Is pletured to the left. Shirring accents shoulders, sleeves, and pockets. Shirring is very popular Just now. It 1s the fashion to wear flowers, too, which Is why this charming young woman has pinned a cluster of dainty posies at her throat. ‘What's more, fashion goes so far as to suggest “sets” of flowers. ‘That is to say, a gardenia on one's hat ts matched with a boutonniere of garde- nias, More flower news is to the effect that the floral motif is to be changed to tune in with the mood and the color scheme of the costume. Pin violets on your hat today, wearing matching flowers on your coat lapel or on the bodice of your frock. Perhaps bright field flowers is choice for the day fol- lowing, or if ypu would flaunt the fa- vorite flower of the moment, It's the carnation, As you can see, looking at the cos- tume centered in ‘the pleture, a block print in triple sheer of bemberg has & heap o° swank about it. The briet Jacket Is styled in cape effect, and the yoke of the slim frock alternates nar- Tow stripes of self-material spaced with the net foundation to which they are stitched. Her lovely summery chapeau has gone very feminine what with its flowers and ribbons and a big floppy brim. eee eS GLAMOR OF LACE Je) 7 a ae aie Lace has been shown in beautiful creations at every Paris collection this salmon pink lace, the full transpar- velvet ribbon is also in the identical | salmon pink.
