JACKSON Councilman Hubbard says The Rounder was in error, recently when he said the E.' 89th St. playground had only a chute and a few swings. As soon as I can, I'm going out there, some evening, the best time to do so according to the Councilman, and see just what it has. Everybody knows that the three local daily papers are unalterably opposed to Mayor Harry Davis' candidacy for re-election. Also, that they prefer Harold Burton's candidacy, as between the two. About everybody who thinks knows also that after the prime election The Plain Dealer and The Press The Democratic, will support the Democratic candidate for mayor and so also if Mayor Davis is renominated. As the Rounder has said this is no secret. The Hamilton County Republican club at its annual outing near Cincinnati, in August, will have as its principal speaker U. S. Senator L. D. Dickinson (Rep. of Iowa. As assistant speaker he will have Ex-Sec. of State Charence J. Brown of Blanchester, Ohio's last Republican candidate for governor; former Congressman Jas. T. Beggs and Daniel E. Morgan, former city manager, both of this city, and John W. Bricker, Ohio's Attorney-General. All except Dickinson are regarded as next year's principal candidates for the Republican nomination for governor. The Rounder thinks Hamilton County is starting rather early. Lem Williams and Syd Thompson are apparently "in bad" with "The Blossom Triplets" (Payne, Bundy and George). First, because they secured their city jobs in spite of them, and second, because they advertised the Burton candidacy in their recent ball-game scorecard. Just too bad, isn't it? Maurice Maschke has never "admitted privately" or otherwise, "that Burton cannot be nominated." Why give publicity to such a transparent tie. And because it is not denied, because for Harvard University either, because he can do that better for himself. As far as The Gazette is concerned it has not determined as yet whom it will support for mayor, according to the editor. Doings of the Race Dr. Wm. A.

Four indictments charging election fraud were returned by the county grand jury, last week Friday, and presented by Grand Jury Foreman Vernon Charnley to Presiding Criminal Judge Skeel. The grand jury's other climaxes a large inquiry the election board, and further indictments are forecast in the fall when a new jury is convened. Those indicted were: Hyman Mayerson, Republican aide to Councilman Roy Bundy and city foreman in the E. 55th St. yards. He lives at 795 E. 95th St., but is a booth official and challenger in ward 17, precinct 1, also registered from ward 24, precinct O. He is accused of illegal voting at the wrong precinct. Maurice D, Mayerson, his son, who is accused of voting three or four times before he reached the age of 21 and then in the wrong precinct. Hazel Taliafero, 2730 E. 87th St, suite 3, a Democratic election judge in ward 17. The jury claims that she has lived in ward 18, precinct P, but voted in ward 17, precinct B or I, and she is therefore charged with false registration and illegal voting. Republican for Berlin, 2421 E. 40th St, Republican city employee in the E. 55th St. yards. He is registered as living at 2488 E. 61st St, but, the jury charges, hasn't lived there since June, 1932, and is accused of illegal voting. The election board has been investigating alleged violations of the election law in nine wards. Republican members of the board asked for a probe in wards 7, 14, 23 and 31— Democratic wards—and Democrats died or forcibly in the election twelfth, seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth wards. East Side Republican districts A CHARTER AMENDMENT To Be Voted On in November of Special Interest to Our Workers. At the request of our local Welfare Association, Wm. R. Connors, ex. sec., the City Council, Monday, passed as an emergency ordinance, sponsored by Councilman L. O. Payne, to be submitted to the voters at the November election, an amendment to the City Charter to include in every contract for public work, entered into by the city, that all persons employed shall be paid wages which are not less than are paid by the city for similar work; that, if the city has not established a rate of wages for any particular class of work, employees shall be paid wages which are less than are personally paid thereof, by other employing union labor; that in no event shall any employee be paid less than four dollars and fifty cents a day of eight hours, and that there shall be no discrimination because of race, color, religion or national origin. The amendment was drawn by Judge Bradley Hull, Atty. Alex. H. Martin Dr. Charles Garvin and Secretary Conners, members of the organization's board of trustees. Prime Sport News Will Try a Comeback New York City.—Kid Chocolate has just returned from his home in Cuba to attempt a comeback, this fall. The Kid was the most successful little fighter, since the days Geo. Jackson, up until within possible reach, was a lightweight and was sure a wonder in the hey-day of his career. Lewis Loses Bout New York City.—Abe Felman of this city outpointed John Henry Lewis of Phoenix, Ariz., the leading contender for Bob Olin's light-heavy-weight title in a ten-round bout at Coney Island Velodrome. Feldman weighed 178 pounds and Lewis, 180. Lewis took the first three rounds, but lost the contest, undoubtedly because he has been fighting too often in recent months. Many believe that taking part in too many races is what caused Jess Owens of Cleveland to lose the spot-light to Eulace Peacock of Temple U, several weeks ago. "White" Woman Turning Black. Columbus, O. — Mrs. Edward Franks, age 49, Fowler, O. Trumblum county, underwent treatment in a hospital, Tuesday, for a rare disease which changes the color of skin. She was brought here, late Monday, in an airplane piloted by Charles Boyce of Warren. Mrs. Frank's physician, Dr. R. E. McCautry of Fowler, and medical staff members at the hospital agreed the aliment appeared to be Addison's disease, which turns the skin color to brown or black. Robinson's Pharmacy, cor. E. 30th St. and Scovill Ave. have given employment to King Nolligan, a member of the race. Good! SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS THE SAD ECONOMIC CONDITION EXISTING IN ITALY "PUT HIM ON THE SPOT." The Defense of Ethiopia—England and France Double-Crossing Abyssinia—Another World War Possible—A Local Italian Sizes Up Mussolini. New York City. (CNA.)—The drama of war, now being enacted on the Ethiopian border, and effecting the capitals of the big powers, rushed to a climax last week. Mussolini made it clear that nothing save the complete submission of the Ethiopian people would satisfy Italian fascism. From the accusers of "Ethiopian aggression" to "defend the Ethiopian people" and "civilizers of feudal Ethiopia." Italian fascism seeks to build a moral case for its war of conquest. Barbarous Rule of Fascism. But uncensored, behind-the-line stories paint a different picture. These stories reveal: 1—Each day at least 40 Italian soldiers are becoming invalids in North African camps. 2—Wholesale migrations of Italians are taking place across the borders of Austria to escape military service. 3—Mass unrest of Italian peasants and workers due to increased taxes for war. 4—The imminent danger of the collapse of the fascist dictatorship due to internal disorders. It is this state of affairs which makes Mussolini bellow and rattle the sword all the louder in order to bolster the morale and drown the chorus of internal dissention. Thus, the world views the strange sight of one of the arch-barbarians of history donning the cloak of "civilization and culture" for the purpose of perpetuating and extending a regime kept by filthy marmot nart doses of eaxter oil and firing squads. Machinations of Big Powers France and England, fearful of anti-imperialist feeling among their colonialists, have hypocritically talked of "curbing" Italy. But their plans for "curbing," so far revealed, means the peaceful submission of the Ethiopian nation to an Italian "protectorate." The hypocrisy of these powers was exposed when a treaty signed in 1891 by France, England and Italy, granting eastern Ethiopia as an Italian sphere of influence, was made public. The statement of a week or ten days ago that over 3,000 sick Italian soldiers had been sent back to Italy from Africa and that thousands had died seems to be truth. Now word from Rome gives an inking of the difficulties the Italian troops are encountering, when it revealed that dysentery is sweeping the ranks of the Italian soldiers in Africa and that 15,000 are already stricken. This of course means that many more are really "stricten." Ethiopia to Spurn Offer of Mandate. Addis Ababa, North Africa.—The Ethiopian foreign office announced, Wednesday, that the nation would reject any proposal for an international league of nations mandate over Ethiopia. The foreign office issued a communique stating that no such proposal had been made to the imperial government and that, furthermore, if any were received it would be "No amount of prosperity under foreign domination." declared the foreign office, "would compensate for the loss of independence." The announcement was made shortly after Emperor Haile Selassie had summoned the great chiefs of the nation to his presence. Their closely guarded conference was in a setting of native splendor. A tent of was erected in the center of the courtyard of the palace of his majesty. Sees World Peril in Ethiopian-Italo Dispute. A warning that the Italian-Ethiopian controversy constitutes a threat to modern civilization and to Christianity's place in the modern world was sounded by Rev. W. H. McKinney in a recent sermon at Antioch Baptist church. He said he had made a survey among our people of the city and had found them surmised by the authorities and the impending crisis. They read The Gazette. He warned that that "war between black and white" held great potential danger for the future. "This controversy," he asserted, "is aggravated by the fact that it comes when the minority groups and the oppressed races of the world already have lost faith in the ability of the dominant powers to keep the peace when they have lost faith in our economic system of capitalism and Christianity itself. The world are becoming very conscious of their numerical strength. Since the close of the World War this has been greatly emphasized.

They portrayed in a graphic manner the appearance of the white man first as a pious missionary, second as a shrewd trader and third as a soldier and explorer of the land. Dire things were predicted, and today, in the face of the Ethiopian situation, they are saying, 'We told you so. "This situation is having a telling effect on 'Negro' life right here in Cleveland. Many of our group are more critical of Christianity than ever before and are turning to other faiths and cults." Rev. McKinney related how Moslem missionaries had been at work in the city and had developed a thriving tradition to encourage once devout Christians, their names to Arabian names, while the Fellowship of Faiths had been encouraging understanding and attempting to eliminate racial and religious prejudice "It is reasonable to believe," he said, "that this growing spirit of resentment on Woodland, Central and Scovill Aves. is even stronger in the lands on which the iron rule of our present-day civilization falls heavest." Mussolini Is Slipping, an Italian Saying. Editor Plain Dealer, Sir: Heretofore, a fine leader and commander for the Italian nation, Mussolini is now letting his nation down in disgrace by his campaign against Ethiopia, which to our unbiased mind, positively is wicked. When a nation for its own selfish aggrandement points the way toward slaughter in its quest for territory which it has no right to, and against an innocent country only defending her, then it is eligating and abolie opinion and clamor should be raised in a righteous indignation I am an American, the of Italian descent, and wish to go on record as voicing my feelings together with that of many of my more learned friends, to this point: Mussolini is now going to engage in a vicious, provoked warfare. Ethiopia is just in claiming her rights, and wishing to retain her identity. This world, looking on, is civilized. It is obvious that injustice is being worked. So let the civilized world and its races cry out. Cleveland. Jim Sanfilippo. The Mt. Pleasant Junior Choir gave a lawn-fete. Thursday evening, at Mrs. L. Lprory's E. 128th St. Peter E.

MORE TAXES OR LESS SPENDING. Figures presented by the Federal ‘Treasury disclose that estimated ex penditures for the present fiscal year, ending next June 30, are $7,- 800,000,000, and the estimated det cit for the year $4,500,000,000. On the other hand, the total taxable in- dividual income for 1933, the last year for which figures are availaable, was $10,845,000,000. In plainer words, if the government confiscated all income, it would little more than balance the budget. Taxation upon this income, no matter how high the rates, could never balance the bud- get. Congress faces the task then of eutting down billion dollar expendi- tures before it can begin to balance Income with outgo. anita catia ta rns eer Se oe “Our pioneer ancestors were de- termined to be free men. They wanted the privilege of guiding their own destiny, of forming their own government,’ of living thelr own lives in accordance with the dictates of their conscience and intelligence. ‘And they valued their citizenship, the Constitutional rights delegated to them. As citizens they were far better informed about their govern- ment than we are today. We were porn into it. It has come to us thru inheritance. And like the idle, shitt- Jess sons of rich men, having made no sacrifices for our liberties, we value them lightly. And perhaps much of the freedom we now enjoy may be lost before we awaken to the dan- gers that now confront us.” Too many Americans pay no at- tention to government. ‘They accept the proposal and passage of laws that are opposed to doth the letter and spirit of the Constitution with- out complaint. They watch the growth of political bureaucracy, and thie centralization of political power, without the slightest regard as to what that may do to our institutions. Recent decisions of the Supreme Court in the NRA and other cases have, it is to be hoped, helped to focus measure of public attention on the issue of freedom versus politi- cal dictatorship. If America is to be maintained as a free democracy, the home of free men, every citizen mast do his part to keep it so. He must realize that there can bé no temporizing with those who would change our system of government— even as there can be no compromise between individualism and socialism, communism or fascism. WHAT HOLDS UP RECOVERY? What today is standing in the way of re-employment and is thereby pro- longing the suffering of millions of people? That is the most important question before the American people, and its answer is almost daily be- coming more clear and discernible. But knowing the answer, without utilizing it practically, is worthless. There is no doubt that many Ameri- cans feel, today, that the general pattern of New Deal legislation has tended toward Socialism. Rightly or wrongly, that feeling exists, and so Jong as it does unemployment is cer- tain to be with us, for it leaves & sense of uncertainty about the future which fs harmful to the nation’s sta- bility, Go tong as there is doubt to what the future holds, the per- s00 of small meane will not purchase mecded articles, the buying of which would stimulate employment. By the same token, the investor will not risk his money to expand industry and give employment. ‘The manufac- turer will not dare to extend his production beyond orders in hand. It is a vicious circle, This uncertainty fs not without foundation, and nei- ther is it without a means of being dissipated. There is no doubt that many New Dealers openly talk of the collapse of our recognized economic institutions. They see Socialism as ‘the way out and openly voice these beliefs. They seek to centralize eco- nomic power in Washington and in order to accomplish this espouse pub- Uely the curbing of power of the Su- preme Court and a Constitutional amendment to curtail the powers of ‘the states. Nothing could be more ‘stimulating to re-employment than a ringing declaration from President Roosevelt repudiating such state- ‘ments by his advisers and announe- {ing his strict adherence to the Con- stitution, This should include a ‘statement that finding jobs for the Jobless is our frst objective and un- ‘Ul that is done, those who seek only reforms and changes in our social structure will be unheeded. The People and industry—and certainly the unemployed—would welcome such a declaration, Until it does come, we are on a treadmill of doubt. THE PROFIT AND LOSS SYSTEM. We hear much today of the “profit system” under which this country has operated thru the years and out- stripped all other lands. Actually there is no such thing. It is a “profit and loss” system. We ven- ture Into business as an investment and we either win or lose. Those businesses which prosper do so be- cause they produce a product which ‘the consumer wants at a price which he can afford to pay. If they con- tinue to meet the inevitable competi- tion, then the business grows big. As it inspires confidence, it often ac- quires thousands of stockholders in every part of the country, and they share in its profits. If it does not succeed, they share in its losses, or invest money in another business, But not only do we have this “profit and loss” system. We also have a system of “hope and fear.” It spurs on the able, the industrious, and the courageous by the hope of obtaining a reward in payment for their ef- forts; it spurs on the lazy and in- different by the fear that unless they strive they will tose that which they have, they will suffer a decrease in their standard of living and perhaps face starvation itself. It is the fear of loss, rather than the hope of pro- fit, that has been the main incentive of human industry during the last few years. That old dictum of Cap- tain John Smith, “Those who do not work shall not eat,” is an absolutely indispensable part of any economic system which is based on freedom. When we remove that as a part of the driving power of the human race, we must inevitably substitute for it the driving power of coercion by Government, We have departed at that time from the American highway io Mbartestraéiionm and hapeiness.

Prepared by the National Geographic Society Washington, D. C. NWU Service OKEFINOKEE in the southwestern corner of Georgia lies the great Okefinokee swamp, a primeval wilderness rich in treasure for the modern biologist. Mystery and enchantment live in its coffee-colored waters, its moss-hung cypresses and sunlit pleney woods. Jackfish and large-moon The great state of T of 30 species of frogs Okefinokee region, widen the area of With varied habitats quirements of different unlimited breeding place ponds, cypress bays, and sunlit pleney woods. The Okefenokee owea a great measure of its unique charm to its "pralries"—wide, unspoiled expanses filled in large part with a tropical abundance of aquatic plants and flanked with dense "bays" of stately cypress. On these one may delight his soul amid scenes of unearthly loveliness that have changed virtually not at all since the Seminole warriors poled their dugouts over them. The Okefenokee pralries are not land, but water! In these morasses are many areas of open water, varying from lakes a quarter of a mile in diameter to "alligator holes" a rod in width. The snowy blossoms of the white waterlily gladden many acres of the deeper water, and the golden, globular flowers of yellow pond-IIIles, or "bonnets," glow in a setting of huge green leaves. In the shallows yellow-eyed grass, its tall stems swaying, forms a sea of pleasant color. The small pitcherplant is hardly true to its name on the Okefnokee prairies, for its spotted greenish tubes reach a yard into the air—a height unheard of elsewhere; the parasol-like flowers of greenish gold, each on a separate scape, stand a little below the summit of the leaves. Another plant is the malden cane which forms dense, yard-high beds. Among its sheltering stems and leaves the least bittern, the swamp rice rat, and the Florida water rat build their nests. In late summer, as a boat pushes by a bed of malden cane, a host of katydids will fly out and astound the newcomer by plunging into the water and disappearing. These diving katydids belong to a peculiar species first described from the Okefnokee. Resort of Hunters and Trappers. For generations swamp hunters have pushed over these prairie waters, standing up in their slight boats and bending rhythmically with graceful thrusts of their long poles. The skilled boatman is able to make better progress over the prairies than the bear he chases. Old hunters knew well how to drive a deer out of a prairie head in the direction of a waiting companion. In winter the trapper camps for weeks at a time in these heads, tending his line of traps and taking the pelts of raccoon, otter, wildcat and onosum. To pass from the sparkling sunshine of the prairies into the gloom of the adjoining cypress bays is a striking experience. The huge trees, but tressured by "knees," stand in close ranks in a foot or so of water. Their green crowns, 80 feet or more overhead, shut out all but a few stray beams of sunshine, causing even at midday a sort of twilight. Here and there a winding channel or "run" permits the hunter to push his thyroid between the tree trunks; but in the greater part of the cypress bays there is tall, dense undergrowth that makes even foot travel a slow and arduous undertaking. The bear, having the double advantage of bulky strength and a tough hide, is the only large animal that can readily and rapidly break through such a tangle. Good Fishing There. More than thirty species of fishes inhabit the Okehnoakee, Persons who love simple pan-fishing, with an old-fashioned reed pole, find here their heart's content. At Swauwene lake this sort of angling surpasses that in almost any other part of the country. When one considers that the lake is barely a quarter of a mile long, with an average width of perhaps 30 yards, a year's catch of more than 40,000 fish (recorded in 1925) is astounding. Farther within the swamp, at Billys, Mines, and Buzzard Roost lakes, or on the Big Water or the Swauwene canal, there is likewise rare fishing. The bulk of a day's catch with hook and line is made up of such basses as the warmouth, the "stump-knocker," and the "sand-flar," with a goodly proportion of mudfish and catfish. Those who elect trolling are more apt to land jackfish and large-mouthed bass. The great state of Texas can boast of 30 species of frogs and toads; the Okefinokee region, with one-two-hundredths the area of Texas, has 20. With varied habitats to suit the requirements of different species; with unlimited breeding places in the cressponds, cypress bays, and prairies; with abundant rains in normal years, and with a warm and humid climate, the Okefinokee is a fertile frog paradise. Let copious showers fall during a warm summer's day and by nightfall the bedlam of amphibian voices arising from the swamp waters and their tangled margins is beyond description. The field herpetologist's trained ear picks out of the din the shrill peeping of the oak toad, the droning roar of the southern toad, the plainly uttered "glks" of the cricket frog, the insect-like clirp of the little chorus frog, the machine-gun bark of the pine-wood tree frog, the hoghead-thumping notes of the Florida tree frog, the deep, hollow roll of the gopher frog, the "clung" of the green frog, the pig-like grunts of the southern bullfrog, the clattering chorus of the southern leopard frog, the hammer strokes of the carpenter frog, and the lamb's bleating of the narrow-mouthed toad. Alligators and Birds. Men still living can speak of the times when it appeared as if a 'feller could walk across Billys lake on 'gator backs'. To this day the Okefnokee remains perhaps the best stronghold of our famous corrugated saurian. Suwannee lake in particular, where the alligators are protected, provides unequaled opportunities for making intimate studies of the habits of wild individuals. Of the approximately 180 species of birds recorded in the Okefnokee region, scarcely one-half remain during the summer and breed. While some of these summer residents move southward with the approach of cool weather in the autumn, their places are more than filled by hardier species coming from the northern states and Canada to find a congenial winter home in the swamp. By far the largest mammal of the swamp, and perhaps the most interesting, is the Florida bear. From early times it has attracted the swamp hunters—not so much because of any particular value of its hide and flesh as by reason of the thrill that comes from matching wits and strength with so formidable an animal. An additional reason for the pursuit of the bear is its numerous depredations on the hogs that range through the piney woods and the swamp borders. At a hog's prolonged squealing the residents become instantly alert, for it generally means that a bear has seized the animal and is making off with it toward the depths of the swamp. Guns are hurriedly lifted from pegs on the cabin walls, the dogs are called together with the hunting horn, and the chase is on. Primitive Life of the People For generations the sturdy, self-sufficient, and gifted people of the Okeinoknee have led a rather isolated and primitive existence, some of them on islands within the swamp and others along its borders. They represent some of the purest Anglo-Saxon stock left in our country, though a few of the families have a slight mixture of French Huguenot and even Seminole Indian blood. In ancestry, speech, folksongs, and general social ways there is a marked affinity between the residents of the Okeinoknee and those of the Appalachian mountains. In each case there has been comparative isolation, tending to preserve the cultural heritage from Britain of several centuries ago. The picturesque regional vernacular contains various elements representing survivals from the Elizabethan age that have dropped out of general American usage. The old-fashioned square dance, or "frolc," still holds sway here as a leading form of social recreation. The fiddle, the handclap, the footbeat, and the "calling of the set" by the leader all lend their aid to the rhythm performance. The late fall days—the season of "hog-killin' an' cane-ginlin'"—see these social expressions at their height. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1935 Linen Suit a Midsummer Favorite By CHERIE NICHOLAS THE present vogue for linen is nothing short of sensational.

SUMMER PARTY TOGS NOW HOLD INTEREST Summer party dresses are absorbing the attention of the younger set these days. Sheek sophistication is out for summer evenings, so far as the youngsters are concerned, and fluffy ruffles are the rule of the day. Sheer confections of lace and net and organde are blossoming in shop windows, with plenty of frills and furbelows. Consider, for instance, an evening gown made entirely of diagonal ruffles of Chantilly net lace, mounted on tulle. In petal pink or baby blue it is about as fetching a costume as ever was denoted by a dewy debutante. White also is on the up and up for summer evenings, what with the new epidemic of organdles and organzas and such. Ruffled white frock is a surefire summer dance frock number, with a black net jacket, if you must be sophisticated. "Something Different" Is Slogan for Accessories "Something different" is the slogan for the accessories which accent the new clothes. Almost every one has changed its shape and design a bit. Gloves are shorter, bags are deeper, belts are wider, handkerchiefs larger and all marked by new touches and trims. Short gloves of plgskin, doeskin or suede are the last word in chic accessories to the new tailleur. They extend only about one inch higher than the wristbone, sometimes slashed briefly up the back and buttoning on the back of the hand. Button Trim Tiny buttons of crochet or pearl are part of the dalny detail of sheer lingerie blouses. Rows of them range down front frills or along the sides of cuffs.
