Boyden, superintendent of garbage collection, at whose house, 5920 Hawthorne Ave. Press reporters said they found city employees, last week, remodeling-work on city-time, "The Press" also said carpenters, bricklayers and plasterers, carried on the payroll of the garbage collection division of the Service Department, "skilled labor" at fancy wages, were found working on city time rebuilding the Boyden house. Among them, these men were identified as being garbage division employees, said "The Press": S. Allen, 2245 E. 46th St.; E. Rousch, 2361 E. 36th St.; A. Penn, 5908 Hawthorne Ave.; A. Shy, 5810 Thackeray Ave.; E. Carver, 6506 Ruth Ave.; C. Fagan, 2178 E. 49th St. All were on the city payroll at wages ranging from 60 to 80 cents an hour. All had been "checked in" for the day by the timekeeper, and so were being paid with city funds for their work at the house. Boyden disclaimed any knowledge of the identity of the city working for the "The Press" Boyden's house adjoins three others belonging to Councilman Leroy N. Bundy, which also have been remodeled this summer. Dr. Bundy and a gang of workmen building garages behind all four houses were interested spectators. Construction work on Cleveland's second housing project, in the Outhwaite area, will be started in two or three weeks, it was indicated last week after the George A. Fuller Co., of Washington, submitted to the Federal Housing Administration the lower $2,613.00. Bill originally submitted several weeks ago, but were rejected because of a technicality concerning labor provisions. Work was started recently on the Cedar-Gentral housing project. It is the announced purpose of the Roosevelt administration to segregate whites in the city and blacks in the Outhwaite (cheaper) area. This is contrary to Ohio law but the southern Democratic "cracker" government at Washington will "put it over" just the same unless our people here organize and fight it in the courts of this city and state. We need that we start at once to get ready for the battle. ORGANIZE NOW! Additional land is to be acquired in the next ten days for a 75 per cent increase in the size of the Outhwaite housing area. Tuesday, in instructing Wm. D. Guilion, acting supervisor of federal housing projects here, to do this, A. R. Clas, housing director of Wm. D. Guilion, instructing the additional land be acquired within the next 15 days. The Outhwaite area now extends from E. 40th St. to the rear of the properties fronting on E. 55th St. and from the rear of the property on Woodland Ave. to Scovill Ave. The project has been designed to cost nearly $3,000,000. It is that the land to be acquired between E. 21st and E. 30th St., and Scovill and Woodland Aves. DR. F. W. WALZ Non-Partisan Candidate for Mayor—Honest, Capable, Fearless—Our Friend—Primaries, Oct. 1, '35. "Cleveland needs a mayor and a chief of police—not a Punch and Judy." With this declaration, Dr. F. W. Walz, former councilman, and a real friend of our people, served notice people that he was a candidate for mayor, terming himself "the common people's champion." And that is no joke, either. He attacked the "political swash-buckler in the saddle" at city-hall and promised "sledge-like blows" against municipal rascality, if elected. No man has a better knowledge of this city's affairs or stronger courage of conviction. Dr. Walz's record as councilman shows that he Exposed the "playground scandal." Saved what is left of the Lake Front for the people, the very ground that certain members of the City Council were trying to trade off to the railroads. Fought for the creation of a Harbor Commission for the necessary preparation for Ocean Trade. Fought for the urgently needed preservation and extension of our Municipal Light Plant, which never cost the taxpayer one cent, but saved them more than 30 million dollars in light and power bills. Fought the Rayon Nuisance, also the East Ohio Gas steal. Obtained a written pledge from the Newland Chamber of Commerce to donate million dollars for the relief of the poor, etc., etc. Compare his record for Public Service with that of any other candidate. Equipped by years of accumulated experience and physically fit to lead the taxpayers' battle for economical municipal government, Mayor Walz will give graft and rackets short shift. The municipal primaries, Oct. 1, 1935, will be non-partisan. No voter will be asked to what party he belongs. A vote for Dr. Walz will be one in the interest of the race and for clean and economical government for the city of Cleveland. Remember this when you go to the polls, Tuesday, Oct. 1, 1935.—Adv FOR 25 YEARS! Paymaster of the Former "Queen City of the West"—Handled Millions of Dollars. The Pittsburgh Courier of a recent date adorned its feature page with an excellent portrait of Editor Wendell Phillips Dabney of The Cincinnati Union, and the following short but interesting sketch, written by the well-known correspondent, J. A. Rogers of New York City; Wendell P. Dabney. "Served with distinction and probity as assistant paymaster and later head-paymaster of the treasury of the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, for 25 years (1898-1923). Many millions of dollars passed thru his hands during this period and hundreds of employees served under him. "Dabney who was born in 1865, and is still alive, is a distinguished collector of books and works of art. His collection of books and prints on the Negro is one of the finest in America. He is also an author, editor, musician and the possessor of the rare sense of wit."

Geneva, Switzerland. — Anthony Eden of Britain and Premier Laval of France broke, Sunday night, on the question of making a joint report to the council of the League of Nations on the unsuccessful tri-power attempts in Paris to solve the Italo-Ethiopian conflict. This rupture took place on the eve of a vital meeting of the council, Monday, in an effort to avert war in Africa, viewed as a threat to the League and to European peace. Laval told Eden "regretfully" he was unable to sponsor the report Eden made. The French premier suggested they make parallel reports and this procedure was finally agreed upon. This was interpreted by some of the other delegations as an unfavorable development, indicating both Eden and Laval would maintain liberty of action. Absolve Both Nations. There was a difference of opinion upon the probable effect of the decision of the League's commission in the opia and its own action both for the Ualual border incident. Some quarters expressed belief the result would be to make conciliation easier and some regarded it as removing an excuse for Premier Mussolini to launch a war. Ethiopian observers called the decision an expected victory, and Mussolini, they said, of one of his strongest arguments in support of the Italian "case" against "barbary Ethiopia". The Ualual incident (which the British called a "scuille over a desert water hole"), involved the slaying of a number of Italians and Eritreans, and its first advance of troops to police Ethiopian borders. The League's first step, informed diplomats said, probably will be to seek a pledge from both Mussolini and Emperor Haile Selassie that they will not resort. Should either nation refuse this pledge, advocates of the decision change and the council might take definite measures for penalties, holding an actual threat of war existed. Addis Ababa.—An Italian airplane, disguised as an Ethiopian craft, was brought down by Ethiopian gunfire, Aug. 26, in Ogaden Province, near the Italian Somaliland border. Ethiopian troops arrested the Italian pilot and Somaliland native-observer who was slightly hurt when the plane crashed. Both prisoners were taken across the desert to Harrar, second largest city in Ethiopia and will be tried for violation of Ethiopia's immigration laws. The Ethiopians sighted three airplanes along In the Realms of Race Journalism; Hon. Harry C. Smith is editor and owner of The Cleveland Gazette.

The planes wheeled out of range and made for Italian Somaliland, but one had been hit by a bullet that damaged its engine. It was forced to land several miles away. Titled Couple Held in Ethiopia Sny Quiz. London, Eng.—Count Maurice de Rocquefeu Dubouquet and his wife, of France, were under arrest, Monday, in Jijiga, Ethiopia, on charges of selling Ethiopian military secrets to Italy. An Ethiopian detective detained a Somali woman leaving the count's house and found she was concealing a film tube containing a photograph of the Ethiopian lorry corps and five pages of details on Jijiga's defenses, all addressed to the count. The detectives raided the count's house and discovered extensive correspondence with officers of Italian Somaliland. On the basis of the correspondence, police arrested twelve natives linked with the espionage ring. Native quarters at Jijiga expect them to be hanged. Italian Deserters Increase Zagreb, Yugoslavia.—The number of Italian deserts arriving in Yugoslavia is increasing as an Italo-Ethiopian war nears reality. Five hundred and sixty Italian soldiers, fully trained, were sent to the tered Yugoslavia from the Italian district of Zara. Aug. 28. After being disarmed, the fugitives were sent to Split for interment. It was stated that the Italian garrison at Zara had been holding field maneuvers which allowed the skiv frontier and that the 560 soldiers in question reached Yugoslavia by a quick dash. Ethiopia and Italy Both Cleared. Paris, France.—The Italo-Ethiopian conciliation commission, Tuesday reached a unanimous decision holding that neither Ethiopians nor Italians were responsible for last December's skirmish at the frontier town of Ualual. An authoritative source disclosed that not only were both nations given a clean bill concerning the Ualual affair but the neutral Italian and Ethiopian commissioners decided that neither nation was responsible for subsequent events. The Ethiopians regarded the decision as favorable to their cause. The commission's conclusion awarded no damages and went so far as to relieve both sides of even moral responsibility. This fully endorses the stand held by Emperor Haile Selassie from the very beginning of the controversy. Louis will be married in New York soon after his fight with Ex-Champion Max Baer, Sept. 24. The 19-year-old girl, who met Louis, last December, said they had planned to be married the day after the fight. "I'm not marrying him because he is a great fighter," the girl said. "He's a fine young man, modest and gentlemanly." Joe Louis In Court. Detroit, Mich.—Joe was a witness in the recent proceedings brot by Mrs. Roxboro of this city, to discover her husband's income as the result of his business-associations with Louis. While on the stand, Joe said under oath that her husband was not his manager but that Julian A. Black of Chicago was. The latter receives one-third of the proceeds of his matches. Roxboro, when he was said, said he never been the Louis' manager but acted as Julian Black's Detroit representative and was paid by Black. Jess Owens Cleared. Jess Owens, Cleveland's Olympic track hope, whose amateur status has been under fire for several weeks, has been given a clean bill of health by the Northeast Ohio A. A. U. Owens was charged with violating amateur standards by accepting a salary as honorary page at the state capital while the Ohio Legislature was not in session. "We failed to find evidence that Owens has been getting this money because of his athletic ability," said Jimmy Lee, secretary. "We found that it is a common thing for pages to remain on the payroll during the summer months: so the retention of Owens is no more than has been done for other pages unassociated with athletics." Unless new evidence is brought forth, Lee said, the local A. A. U. considers the matter closed and Owens, star of O. S. U.'s track team, the money in question. An official report of the local body's action has been sent to national headquarters.

Last week's report of the commission of the League of Nations Council in the Ualual controversy, which failed to give Italy legal grounds for making war on Ethiopia, is a distinct victory for Emperor Haile Selassie. If Mussolini is permitted by Great Britain, France and the United States to get away with this wholesale defiance of them in particular, and all the great nations in general, he will surely make them rue it in the not too distant future. The announcement was made Thursday morning of this week, that "Mussolini Outaws Ethiopia!" When and where did either he or his country, or both, get the power and right to outlaw any nation? When The Gazette announced, some weeks ago, that the Costigan-Wagner Anti-Lynching bill was dead, about all of our contemporaries disagreed with us. Only a few of them even now seem to realize that that statement was truth. If Emperor Haile Selassie knew that the U. S. Secretary of State, Cordell Hull, was a southern "cracker", he would better understand the latter's forcing the American Oil Company to relinquish the concession in Ethiopia, it sought and obtained. Under the treaty of 1906 the three powers, England, France and Italy, meeting in Paris were given "spheres of influence" (not land) in Ethiopia and promised to preserve that country's (independence) "territorial integrity." England, France and Italy therefore, have no right to any part of Ethiopia. Regardless of this fact, Mussolini continues his preparations to attempt to subjugate the entire country. Great Britain, France and Italy, many years ago, signed a treaty guaranteeing the independence of Ethiopia. Great Britain had the nerve, last week, to announce that Emperor Haile Selassie should have consulted them before leasing part of Ethiopia to the Standard Oil Co. of this country and Europe. This in the face of the fact that Italy is practically waging war on Ethiopia and the additional fact that any nation or country has a perfect right to lease any part of its lands to whomever it sees fit to. "UNCLE SAM" JUST AS GUILTY. The national convention of Jewish War Veterans of America which met at Saratoga Springs, N. Y., Sunday, adopted a resolution asking that President Roosevelt and The Congress officially condemn the Nazi persecution of Jews in Germany; also that the United States sever commercial relations with the Berlin government. That convention seems to have forgotten that our government is just as guilty of persecution (Afro-Americans in the South) as the Hitler-Berlin government is guilty as charged, and in no position to do as requested. Sunday evening, Attorney-General John J. Bennett of New York state, in addressing the convention, pleaded that any action the Jewish War Veterans might take, regarding the German situation, be coupled with a request for justice for Catholics in Germany and other countries. As we have already said, this government is in no position to make either request, for reasons stated. DOUBLE-CROSSING. The meet at Geneva of the League of Nations, "League of Notions or Plague of Nations", seems to be clarifying the atmosphere with the assistance of foreign correspondents of American newspapers, one of whom referred to the impending war between Italy and Ethiopia as one How To Keep Cool THE LADY IN THE BOAT ARE you feeling warm this weather? Well, here's a prescription for keeping cool. A bathing suit, an Ontario lake, an aquaplane and a motor boat. No work, no effort but just fun. The young woman above demonstrates the net result. "between Blacks and Whites". That Great Britain, France and this country are, in little different ways, assisting Italy and bowing to the threats of Premier Benito Mussolini, is also becoming clear, Anthony Eden, English minister for League of Nations affairs, told the league's council members, Monday, that "there can be no question of economic or political conflict between Great Britain and Italy"; that "Italy had recognized Britain's interests in Ethiopia and Britain is sure those interests will be respected", in event, of course, of the success of Italy's contemplated war of conquest in Ethiopia. France, all along, has sided with Italy, as against "the garden spot of northern Africa", Ethiopia. President Roosevelt and his secretary of state, bowing to the influence of Great Britain, brought about, last week, the revoking by the American Oil Company of its 75 year lease, made the week preceding, of a large part of Ethiopia, thus making it even harder for Emperor Halle Selassie to purchase the ammunition and war implements he needs in the defense of his country. All this in the face of the Great Britain-France-Italy treaty guaranteeing the independence of Ethiopia, and the American-French promoted Briand-Kellogg peace treaty which all of the nations named signed, some years ago. About fifteen or twenty years ago, an Englishman, who had spent nearly a lifetime in Africa representing his country, returned to London and wrote a very interesting letter to a daily newspaper of that city which was republished in the Literary Digest of this country. In that letter he referred at length to the steady growth, among the native blacks of Africa, of the Ethiopian church, saying also that it would not be many years until its influence would practically consolidate them. At that time, Ethiopia was known as Abyssinia with the result that many persons did not grasp the full significance of that statement, the writer being among the number. The double-crossing that country is now receiving from Great Britain, France, the United States and Italy, with their perfectly apparent determination to subjugate the remaining black nation in Africa (Ethiopia), makes perfectly clear their determination to rivet, if possible, white control upon that great continent and thus make impossible the control of Ethiopia, the oldest Christian nation in Africa, if not in the world. If the Italo-Ethiopian war materializes, as now seems certain, it will be a long one, causing Italy the loss of millions, if not billions, of dollars and millions of lives. Will God Almighty permit this shameless conquest of Ethiopia? A RE you feeling warm this weather keeping cool. A bathing suit, a motor boat. No work, no effort but demonstrates the net result.

Accustomed as she is to receiving strange requests, Vivian Longnire, information operator in The Ohio Bell Telephone Company's Akron exchange, was puzzled by this unusual question. Why on earth wouldn't a person know her own telephone number and the name of her employer? Seeking a bit of information on her own account, Miss Longnire learned from the caller's vague answers that she was a maid and was left alone to care for a baby. Sensing trouble, the operator, aided by her supervisor, traced the telephone from which the maid was talking and immediately notified the incoherent girl's employer of the irregularity at his home. Meanwhile, operators at the information board stalled off attempts of the maid to get a taxi. Finally the voice of the employer was heard on the wire, thanking the operator profusely for her assistance in a grave emergency. When he arrived home, he found that the maid had suddenly become insane. TALKS TO WORKERS FROM MID-ATLANTIC A thousand miles at sea, enroute to England on the liner S. S. Acquitania, President Ben F. Hopkins of the Cleveland Graphite Bronze Company addressed 8,000 persons at his firm's annual picnic in Cleveland over a ship-to-shore telephone hook-up. The picnic group consisting of employees, their families and friends listened to the Ohio executive's five-hour lecture from the ocean liner to land by radio-telephone and then to Cleveland via long distance telephone lines. BELL COMPANIES PAY HUGE TAX The Bell System paid taxes equal to more than 50 cents a month for each of its 13,458,000 telephones last year. The 1934 tax bill of the Bell telephone companies totaled $89,485,000, of which The Ohio Bell Telephone Company, an associated company, paid $4,198,051. The Ohio Bell's total taxes were equal to 36 per cent of its net operating revenues, and averaged $64½ cents a telephone a month. The Last Word in Air Transportation Six Years Ago; Obsolete Now M. L.

In factories, plants, stores, offices and homes MEN make history every day without realizing it, for history is reckoned in terms of time, and one man's lifetime is not usually long enough to give the proper perspective. But Mr. T. W. Balfe, of New York City made history only six years ago! He purchased the first ticket issued by a transcontinental air service! Six years ago this country experienced a tremendous awakening to the possibilities of scheduled air transportation, and the company which is now American Airlines took a step as startling to the times as the first voyage of Columbus in 1492, and established a coast to coast route, flying by day, using trains by night, and covering the distance in sixty-seven hours! Day Flying Only Night passenger flying was unheard of at that time; intermediate landing fields, and lighted airways had not been established. Mr. Baffle left New York by rail at 5:00 p. m. on June 14, 1929, arriving in Cleveland at 6:05 the following morning, where he breakfasted and boarded a Ford tri-motor plane, the last word in speed and luxury. He flew to Garden City, Kansas via Chicago and Kansas City in t. h. hours, landing there at 5:20 p. m. He then boarded another train for the last leg of the journey, getting into Los Angeles at 9:15 a.m., June 16. From coast to coast in sixty-seven hours. That was only six years ago. The Ford planes which were so revolutionary then have for years been obsolete, and have been replaced by airliners which were then not dreamed of. The old planes were noisy and slow; the new top speed 125 miles per hour. The new planes are twin-engined, beautifully streamlined, luxuriously upholstered, and quiet. They cruise at 180 miles and their top speeds are well over 200 miles. Day and Night Flying Aviation developed so rapidly that it was only a matter of months when planes were flying both day and night. Gradually American Airlines changed the direction of its transcontinental route, and has been flying for several years the famous Southern Transcontinental, "The Fair Weather" route, between New York and Los Angeles, via Nashville, Dallas, El Paso and Phoenix; covering the distance in twenty hours—less than one-third of the time of the historic journey of 1929. In line with their initial policy of having passengers sleep while traveling at night, American Airlines went into the market and developed the first sleeper planes in the world. These planes are the highest type of flying equipment. 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 in the Ohio legislature in 1834 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and has billed anti-lynching Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) mit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury occurred therefrom, is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative, of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor, such sum shall be distributed, such sum shall be distributed to the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob (93 v. 162 6). Section 6283. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7). Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is had, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of a judge, a paying not more than five dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery (93 v. 162 9). Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to a fine. Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to com- mit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12.) OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sect. 12940. However, beover the proprietor of his room, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars or more, and imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. A. E. H. Many Women Helped Thousands and thousands of women have said that CARDUI helped them to overcome much useless suffering at monthly periods, and that by continued use of CardUI their aliments entirely disappeared. So if you have severe pains, cramps, nervousness every month, why not find out, by trying it, whether CardUI will help you? It has helped so many! CardUI is harmless for women of any age. Many mothers have given it to their young daughters on their reaching womanhood any age. Many mothers have given it to their young daughters on their reaching womanhood.

Prepared by the National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.—NU Service. T. Washington in province of Baluchistan lost its most important city in the recent earthquake that destroyed Quetta. Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan and the only municipality in the province, existed primarily for military purposes, but the Fax Britannica, substitute for the lawlessness and banditry of former days, had made an important civil community and trading center of it as well. Baluchistan is India's fortress to the east, and Quetta was its donjon keep. The British have been in control of the place since 1877, and since 1883 have held it under perpetual lease from its old ruler, the picturesquely named Wall of Kalat. When the British went in Quetta was only a little group of mud huts surrounded by unhealthy plains that were virtually swamps. Drainage and sanitation made the place over. The population increased to 60,000, and once swampy lowlands furnished a setting for villas and farm houses surrounded by orchards and planted groves. The outstanding feature of Quetta was the cantonment where six or eight regiments of British and Indian troops were quartered. This extensive post was to the north on relatively high ground, while the civil town was to the south on a lower level. Mud, in the form of sun-dried brick was an important building material in the town, though not to the extent that it was two decades ago. Then mud-brick domes formed many of the roofs, and were considered safe because of Quetta's scant rainfall (about 10 inches annually). But there came an unusually wet spring, and most of the buildings melted away. Since then many iron roofs—less picturesque, but better insurance against weather vagaries—surmounted the mud walls of the town. Western influence had permeated Quetta and the standard of living had risen accordingly. Tea, a little while ago a marked luxury, was becoming a common beverage. Leather footwear had displaced sandals to a noticeable degree. Hot Days, Cold Nights. Quetta is in the same latitude as Cairo, Jacksonville, Fla., and Shanghai, but because of its 6,000 feet of altitude and the physical aspect of the surrounding country, its climate is very different. Each day the mercury bobs up and down through a wide range. The difference between daily maximum and minimum has been known to reach 80 degrees; but such excessive changes are confined to certain short seasons. The hills and even the valleys of Baluchistan are largely treeless, and when the sun is down heat radiates away rapidly. As a consequence the nights are always cool, even when the sun blisters one by day. The area devastated by the earthquake extends south of Quetta into the state of Kalat, a vast mountain-streaked region of Baluchistan, where modern progress has hardly penetrated. There are no road maps in Kalat, for good roads are scarce. In recent years towns of the coastal region and of the extreme north have been linked with telegraph lines. The railroad from Karachi to eastern Persia runs across the state's northern extremity, but even in the shadows of the telegraph poles and along the railroad right-of-way the natives cling to their camels and horses. A network of animal paths forms the major communication system. Few people of the interior have seen an automobile, and to many coins are curiosities, for their wants are satisfied by barter. Kalat is sparsely settled. The state is nearly as large as Nebraska but it has only twice as many inhabitants as the city of Omaha. Small villages are sprinkled on the plains and in the valleys and there are perhaps a dozen fair-sized towns, but no large cities in the American sense. Kalat, the capital, was a cluster of mud houses and matting huts climbing a hill topped with the mud-walled, fortresslike eltadel of the Khan. Much of it was destroyed by the earthquake. The inhabitants of Kalat are divided into tribes, each with a chief. Many tribes graze sheep and herd goats, following their animals wherever there is fresh pasture. Some of them live the year round in matting or cloth-covered huts; others refuse to be burdened with cargo when on the move and build new brushwood huts at each stop. Kalat farmers occupy the valleys. While some fruits, cotton and dates are exported, the farmers are scarcely able to produce enough food for domestic consumption. Normal rainfall is scanty and the soil is poor. In the northern part of the state, which is one of the hottest areas in India, the sun is relentless in its destruction of crops. Famine visited the state in 1830 and lasted for ten years. Farming and Fishing. Here and there farmers have built crude irrigation works that are fed by springs and small streams, but more often the native cultivators depend upon floods to water and fertilize their soil. Along the coast hundreds of small, clumsy fishing boats operate in the Arabian sea fisheries. The fish are salted and form one of the leading articles of Kalat commerce. There are no organized industries in the state. Every native woman is an expert with the needle and she makes all the family clothing. Wool and goat hair from domestic animals are her working materials and what she does not use finds its way to Pasni, the leading Kalat port, destined to foreign markets. A peep through the door of a native but may also reveal a pottery factory, but only a small quantity of the homemade product is sold beyond the Kalat borders. Just across the Baluchistan border, in the province of Sind, is the seaport of Karachi which has been crowded with refugees from the earthquake districts. Like Marseilles, near the mouth of the Rhone, and Alexandria, near the mouth of the Nile, Karachi is of a great river, but not on it. It is just off the delta of the Indus; but its importance is largely a gift from that stream, whose shifting alluvium has swallowed up its rivals. Tatta, an old capital of Sind, as Karachi is today, was on a deep-water branch of the Indus a short distance above its mouth. It flourished until the river left it high and dry. Shahbandar, a more famous Sind port on another Indus branch, could, like New Orleans, be reached by deep-draught men-of-war. But about 1725 Shahbandar also became silted up and is now an inland village. Common sense dictated the choice of a port outside the shifting delta, and Karachi, in a sheltered bay a short distance to the west, began to grow in importance. Karachi Once a Slaving Center. Karachi once a Slaving Center. Karachi's chief "product" of import and export had been Abyssinian slaves brought by Arab boatmen from Masqat. Since British control came to northwestern India, Karachi's hinterland has been greatly developed through improved irrigation methods, and a swelling stream of agricultural and other products has flowed to the port. After a railway was built to tap the Punjab wheat fields, Karachi became India's greatest grain port. In population the town has jumped from less than 20,000 before the British came, to about 263,000 today. Though Karachi has a huge and rich land to draw from, its immediate surroundings are rather discouraging. Rocky peninsulas jut out to shelter its harbor. A dun-colored, dry plain surrounds the town. A few miles to the northwest lie the seamed, baked-c clay hills of Baluchistan, "as strange a country as any in Asia." Off along the coast and into Baluchistan strikes the amphibian telegraph line that gives Karachi its most direct connection with the West. A land line until it gets well into Baluchistan, it then dives into the sea to come up again on the Persian coast and strike overland through Persia and Turkey to Europe. Gateway for Central Asia. Karachi is not only a door for India, it is the gateway besides for much of central Asia. Numerous products that are freighted into Karachi harbor find their way up through the famous Kyber Pass and over Himalayan trails to Afghanistan, Turkistan and Tibet. Many millions of dollars have been spent on the harbor of Karachi in the construction of moles, jetties and other port works. Keeping its waters deep enough is a never ending fight. A strong ocean current sweeps to the entrance part of the tremendous load of silt brought down by the Indus, and this must be continually dredged away that Karachi may not suffer a fate like that which overtook Tartt and Shah bandar. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1935 Oriental Drape and Classic Pleat By: H. H. H. SEEKING a new fashion thrill? Here it is and a rather startling one when it comes to "something different." It's the draped silhouette either of Hindu or classic Greek influence. Look for it this fall, for drapedfulness is on the way. As a matter of fact it has already arrived. For quite some time Paris designers have been giving these draped effects a good try-out in evening wraps and gowns. When Schiaparelli and Alix and others first displayed gowns that either went harem or were daringly draped a in Hinduast and when artful pleaitings went classic Greek and the sari and the Ihram headscarf made their dramatic appearance, they created no end of excitement in fashion's domain. The venture went over with such overwhelming success style creators were led to adopt the idea of drapes and pleats as a workable formula in the designing of the new fall and winter modes. The oriental influence which is being so dramatically exploited this season is shown in the costume to the right in the picture. The front fulness which is a characteristic feature of the newer fashions is achieved through both shirring and draping. As the season progresses the importance of front fulness will become increasingly apparent. The new softly styled frocks, the new separate skirts and the new coats all emphasize this trend. In harmony with this idea of front fulness comes the vogue of draped bodices. The most important feature of these smartly draped bodices is that their technique involves the use of gathers and fulness that seems to radiate from the shoulder line. It is also significant that this stunning gown is made of chiffon, for the formal afternoon gown of filmy black is proving a favorite among best dressed women. The square rhine MIDSEASON COAT By CHERIE NICHOLAS A A swagger coat of uncompromising simplicity in your favorite pastel shade is the thing to wear right now over that summer frock you love best. The model pictured is developed in a new novelty woolen that combines the appearance of chinchilla with the softness of polo cloth. Sea-Shells for Hat Clips The latest clips for hats and dresses are painted seashells. stone buttons add sparkle to the costume. The hat of quilted silk is very unusual—suggests Egyptian inspiration. The other gown is likewise made of black silk chiffon. The waist-depth jacket is done in all-over exquisitely fine accordion pleating. The blouse and the softly tied and pleated sash are of bright vermilion silk chiffon. The classic arrangement of this sash obviously suggests Grecian influence. The Greek trends are reflected in every realm of fashion, ranging from evening gowns to beach costumes. Beach wraps are so designed as to fall over the shoulder in classic cascade pleats. Then there are the lovely white chiffon evening gowns that are all-over plented and go trailing in grace with pleated capelike scarfs which fall over the shoulder in most picturesque fashion. one outcome of Greek influence is the vogue which calls for flat-heeled Grecian sandals. The smartest Parisiennes are wearing them fashioned of gilt leather. Picture a gown of Greek inspiration made of white crepe. The sculptured classic look is accented with a handsome gold cord with tassels about the waist. Gilt leather Greek sandals add the final touch. The Hindu turban which the lady to the left in the illustration is wearing is noteworthy in that advance millinery showings are placing particular stress on the importance of Hindu-draped turbans for immediate wear with one's midsummer frocks. These charming turbans and berets are made either of black or white crepe or chiffon. As you see in the picture the thin fabric is twisted and shirred in interesting fashion. A new look is achieved this season for berets and turbans of Oriental inspiration in that they are worn, in some instances, back off the forehead. © Western Newspaper Union. MODERN VOGUE IN SCENT APPLICATION A delightful new vogue in scent application—one particularly effective and appropriate with sleeveless and backless summer frocks and beach wear—is the one sponsored by a famous old French perfume house. Perfume, according to them, should not be applied to the clothing or handkerchief, or in little dabs behind the ears (as most American women apply it), but should be applied directly to the skin, spread over it in lavish quantities. Applied in this way, scent becomes an intrinsic part of the personality, being modified differently by the different texture of each skin, and so acquiring a warmer and richer, as well as an individual, fragrance. A lovely and refreshing preparation known as "skin perfume," which should serve a double purpose in the sticky summer months (since it is cooling and stimulating as well as fragrant) is produced by this French house. The skin perfume comes, incidentally, in the fresh and delicate scent of lilac, unprecedentedly popular this year both as spring and summer shade and as floral perfume. Another new note in scent fashion widely advocated this summer is the combination of perfume and dusting powder in the same scent to give one a single, individual fragrance. These combined perfume and dusting powder packages are ideal for summer use, from the viewpoint of comfort as well as charm. Beauty Hint An astringent lotion with a powder base makes an excellent foundation for make-up during warm weather. It may also be used to cleanse the face several times during the day before applying powder. In The WEEK'S NEWS CURRENT EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHED FOR THE GAZETTE WIN COLLEGE EDUCATIONS— petition.

George Washington Johnson, a young school teacher and Maggie Clark, a pupil, were the principals. They met in 1859 at Glenford, Ontario, where Johnson had come to teach school. He was 21 and she 18. Romance buildup quickly and the love continued when she went to college. She studied her studies and he went to Buffalo to join the Buffalo Courier. They Something Wrong! There is something radically wrong with a group of people who refuse to help relieve their own burdens. The day of throwing bouquets is gone forever. The Afro-American must face the facts as they exist. We won't gain anything by fooling ourselves into thinking that everything is all right. Everything affecting the lives of Afro-American men will all wrong. The sooner we face these facts, the quicker we will begin to work for our own salvation, the sooner we will attain our rightful place as American citizens. — Philadelphia Tribune.

The 79-year-old physician, who probably has the largest medical practice in Tuscarawas county, was too busy for several years to have a cataract removed from his left eye. He finally consented to take time out for the operation, but insisted upon having a bedside telephone over which to carry on his job.

Explaining why he insisted on telephoning, Dr. Smith said: "I may think of something I overlooked . . . a prescription at the drug store for some patient, some change in diet for another, a score of things that slip a fellow's mind when he prepares to undergo an operation." Dr. Smith started his life-long medical career after he graduated from college in China and Collegeagues honored him with a ban in March, 1929. Every physician in Tuscarawas county, save one, attended. The one exception wanted to be there, but could not because he had a vigil with a stork.
