ON WHAT'S DOING
A letter, allegedly written to ex-Mayor Ray T. Miller on Oct. 11, 35, by Jay Owens, which started "Dear Ray," was circulated during the recent campaign by the "Miller-for-Mayor Headquarters - Felix T. M. Mayor" group. "Dear Ray" get to be such close friends that the former addresses him "Dear Ray" in an open letter to the public? The Rounder and a great many others do not believe that Jess ever wrote a line of that letter. Wonder who did it for him? Some Miller someone or someone, Owens, it seems does not impress one outside of his outstanding ability to win foot-races.
Mayor Harold H. Burton announced to 25 City Council members, at the open meeting Wednesday afternoon at City Hall, that from two to three thousand city employees must be laid off immediately owing to the city's miserable financial condition. And did he give the councilmen present a headache, when he said this? "Sonny" DeMaioribus, president of the council, and Herman Finkle, 12th ward representative, ducked the meeting but got the headache later on when informed of the loss of 120 City Council members Dionne Quintuplets, so named by that "Blossom Triplet," Civil Service Commissioner Clayborne George, are sure "out of luck!"
During the Spanish-American War, from a point on the Cuban coast called Mole St. Nicholas eminated the most fantastic and biggest stories, one kind and other, of the time. Several times in the last week or ten days, rumors have reached The Rounder at least one person interested in the present mayoralty campaign who has the story-teller of Mole St. Nicholas "beat a block." This individual is responsible for the circulation of a statement to the effect that the editor of The Gazette demanded four or five thousand dollars from the munition campaign for the support of his paper, The Gazette. The editor desires The Rounder to say here and now that that statement is a LIE "cut out of whole cloth" and the originator of a LIAR who so frr out-classes the Mole St. Nicholas fabricator as to make the latter look like a "piker." Please pass this along to all interest-
DR. THWING ON GOOD EYESIGHT.
Dr. Charles F. Thwing, president emeritus of W. R. U., a leader in education, celebrated his $2nd birthday, this week, by putting in four hours daily at his desk writing his biography. He owes many rich years of usefulness and happiness to the care he has given his eyes, and he recently wrote to the Sight Saving Council "all happiness to you in this most human and humane service". Good eyes deserve good light; impaired eyes demand it. Good light is cheap; good eyesight is priceless.

Snyder Denies He Kept Owens Quiet
O. S. U. Track Coach Says He Refused to Order His Star Athlete to Oppose Olympies —America as Guilty as Germany.
Cleveland, Nov. 11, 1935.
Editors,
The Plain Dealer, The News and The Press,
Dear Sirs:—
Brig. Gen. Charles H. Sherrill, Olympics committee member, said several weeks ago that this country's "mistreatment of Negroes in the South" makes it impossible for "America to protest against the mistreatment of the Jews in Germany." The fact is that both the southern part of the United States and Germany are guilty of shameful mistreatment of the Negro and Jew and therefore this country is in no position to protest the Jews mistreatment in Germany or anywhere else as suggested by Rabbi Armond E. Cohen of the Cleveland Jewish Center.
First, let us "clean off our own door."
Jess Hopes to Run in Germany.
Jess Owens, whose opinion concerning American participation in the 1936 Olympic games has been the subject of some controversy and discussion, Monday said he hopes the games go on as scheduled and that he is able to make the team. Of course, Jess does not know what kind of treatment he will receive in Germany, if he "makes the team." Hitler does not enthuse over his people as well as the Jews. Apparently he does not mean anything to Jesse, however.
Larry Snyder, Ohio State University track coach, denied, Sunday, that he had cautioned Jesse Owens, Cleveland's sprint and broad jump star, not to voice opposition to holding the 1936 Olympic games at Berlin, an Associated Press dispatch from Columbus said. David H. Pierce, chairman of the public relations committee of the American Federation of Teachers, charged that Snyder took such action in a letter to Jeremiah T. Mahoney of New York, president of the American Amateur Athletic Union, Saturday.
"Someone is just trying to put the A, A. U. on the spot." Snyder said. "A delegation of students and others from Cleveland visited me at my office, a few days ago, and asked me to have Jesse go on record as opposing the games in Berlin. I refused to have Jesse. I see no reason to a controversy over the Olympics. The games have been awarded to Germany, all preparations have been made, and now some people want to have America withdraw just because some of the German policies are not approved by them. Jesse and other Negro boys haven't been invited to the Sugar Bowl meet at New Orleans. But one has asked us to go on vacation to New York. We should we oppose Germany for doing something we do right here at home?"

Dear Madam:—
There is a condition at the W.
117th St. and Brooklawn Rd. job to which I would call your attention.
Led on by some one who ought to be present, the man objected to the two colored workers receiving drinking-water when the water-boy came around, with the result that they were compelled, day before yesterday, to go without it. The workers are of various nationalities, some not even citizens, I underestimate the number of course are native-born Americans.
When this condition was reported to the foreman, I understand he notified the engineer (Mr. Gibson) in charge of the work. Nothing was done, however, to stop the un-american from coming in, which it seems was promoted by some prejudiced southern or prejudiced southern-sympathizing worker.
People in dire circumstances, enjoying the bounty furnished by tax-players' money and doled out by the government, ought to be the last persons to attempt to so discriminate against born American citizens. Trusting you will give this matter attention just as soon as possible. I am

Two Planes Shot Down.
Addis Ababa, N. Africa.—During fighting in the Webbe Shibeli river sector on the southern front, Oct. 18, an Ethiopian communique said. Ethiopians brought down two Italian planes, one of which was laden with bombs which exploded, destroying the machine and killing the occupants. The Ethiopians said they have been manned by four Italianians, all of whom were killed.
Addis Ababa, N. Africa.—A great Ethiopian victory on the southern front, won at a heavy cost of lives to both sides, was officially announced, Tuesday, by the government. It was a fight of age-old infantry against modern tank and machine gun units of Italian invaders, and the former won. Despite a withering fire tribesmen of Emperor Halle Selassie captured four Italian tanks at Anele, Ogaden Province. The battle field was strewn with the Italian dead and many Ethiopians.
Another Victory.
Ethiopian also had success in another clash in the same region. Its warriors killed six Italian officers and many soldiers, with the remainder fleeing in panic, and captured six trucks. There was a third victory on the northern front. Commander Gabre Heyot attacked a vastly superior Italian unit, killing the commander and a large number of soldiers and dispersing the enemy in disorder. Ethiopians suffered only eight killed and the Italians many more.
Big Ethiopian Army Waits
Big Ethiopian Army Waits.
Italian Headquarters. On the Northern Front.—Italian scouts reported to the army, that a quarter of million Ethiopian troops will throw back the advance of Italy's armies from northern Ethiopia. In addition, there are Ethiopian reserves totaling between 300,000 and 400,000 "destined to reinforce sectors under attack and to produce an encircling movement," said an Italian report. Both northern and southern Italian armies are aiming for Harar Province, in which Ethiopia's Harar and the strategie railway to Diredawa are situated. The Silva division of Italian troops, Tuesday, marched toward Makale to strengthen the front line. The division passed Edaga Hamus, about fifteen miles southeast of Adigrat, while camels were being brought up along with trucks carrying munitions and supplies. The movement, made in heavy and doing great damage to recently captured towns, would become soggy with mud and water. The roads south of Adigrat were in much worse condition than when the Italian army advanced over them a week ago toward Makale. Unless new roads are constructed, having solid foundations, it appeared that great sections of the Italian forces will have to be withdrawn before the discussed this phase of the situation agreed the frontline forces, now numbering almost 100,000, would have to withdraw if transportation difficulties had not been overcome at that time.
Germany Assists in Applying Sanctions
Berlin.—Tuesday Germany indirectly joined countries taking sanctions against Italy by placing a blanket embargo on certain important products regardless of their destination. The embargo is effective, Nov. 16, two days before League sanctions begin to function. An official announcement, however, studiously avoided direct mention of Italy or Geneva, altho once apparently referring to Italy. Home necessity, the announcement said, was the reason for the step, while a foreign officer in Germany asserted, this is a result of sanction by the them." Banned from export were all raw materials for the iron, metallurgical and rubber industries, including aluminum, nickel, magnesium, manganese and bauxite; oils, cooking fats, and hides and yarns. Coal, which is the largest German export to Italy, did not appear on the list, nor did copper.
"In recent weeks," said the announcement, apparently referring to Italy, "a tendency has been noticed for certain foodstuffs and raw materials to flow from Germany to countries lying about her."

they are retiring, as the communi-
niques would say, to "positions previ-
ously prepared," preferably where it
is not 110 in the shade and no shade.
The reason is that they can't find
the war. There is a war, to be
sure, but it is easier to find out about
it in London, Paris, New York, Cleveland
or Oshkosh than in Addis Ababa.
In the Ethiopian capital there
Premier Benito Mussolini
is little to correspond about except the heat and how the Ethiopians live, not to mention the occasional escapes of the emperor's lions. All these topics are now worn pretty thin.
One trouble is that Haile Selassie is too perfect a host. He's afraid the correspondents might get hurt, should some of his subjects mistake them for Italians. One could hardly blame the untutored Ethiopians for thinking that since white men are invading their land, they should take pot shots at any white man who comes within range. The emperor has enough trouble without having to explain to some distant managing editor that the joke is on us; we want the war to end." So he insists the correspondents stay a long way behind the front.
The World War defailed the old time war correspondent, tho in time he was able to get some of the censors trained to see his point of view. But the Ethiopian war is still too young. At the moment it looks as if the correspondents had been thrown for a loss.

Just as we feared those Scottsboro Alabama "rats" put an "Uncle Tom Negro" on the jury to make sure of the indictment of the nine Scottsboro boy-victims. They were forced to put a member of the race on the jury by the U. S. Supreme court decision, of some months ago. We are told that "the verdict was returned in little more than an hour after the examination of witnesses." Lord, have mercy! This means that the Scottsboro case or cases will again go to the U. S. Supreme court.

In its last issue before the recent election, one of our local contemporaries (The Call-Post) hurdled over to the Democrats with Clayborne George's "Cleveland Dionne Quintuplets," Councilmen Payne, Bundy, Hubbard, Finkle and DeMaioribus, whose portraits were displayed most conspicuously on its first page showing that it was working in harmony with them against Harold H. Burton and for ex-Mayor Ray T. Miller. Then there was that distribution of the short-ballot throut their respective wards with a cross before Miller's name and their names; also, the loud-speakers that traversed the wards, election day and the day before, urging their constituents to vote for Miller for mayor and their "quintuplet" candidate for the council. Dr. O. A. Childress, manager of Selmo Glenn's 17th ward candidacy for the council, openly charged that there was a deal on to swing our voters of their wards to the Democrats, and there was more truth than poetry in that statement, too.
LOWER FOOD COSTS.
Press reports continue to chronicle new or imminent rises in the cost of food, largest item in the average family budget. Most recent dining table essentials to show signs of a zoom upward are the old reliables—bread and potatoes. Some food products, notably pork of all kinds, have reached such rarified price levels that their consuming market is dropping away toward the vanishing point. Under these circumstances, movements designed to lower the retail price of food in relation to the wholesale price, thru elimination of wasteful, intermediary costs, are definitely in the public interest. If hard-earned dollars can be liberated from the food budget and used for the purchase of other necessities or luxuries, the standard of living will be advanced, every industry will feel the stimulation of boosted general purchasing power, and new employment will follow. A ten per cent cut in food costs would release many hundreds of millions of dollars of purchasing power. It would permit the purchase of thousands of new automobiles; it would renovate and build homes; it would purchase furniture; it would buy insurance. Elimination of needless middlemen expense and wasteful overhead costs makes it possible to pay the farmer a fair price for his wares—and still sell them at retail for less. The interests of all the people are involved.
FACE THE GORY FACTS.
Few journalistic achievements of recent years have caused such a furor as the publication, by Readers' Digest, of J. C. Furnas' article, "And Sudden Death." This article, which describes the horror of automobile accidents in the most realistic and even nauseous terms, has been reprinted, in whole or in part, in a long list of newspapers and magazines throut the country. It has become the basis for speeches by safety and law enforcement authorities. One Canadian province distributes copies of it to drivers, and a New York judge has started the practice of reading it to traffic violators appearing in his court. Most important of all, per-
haps, the article may have established a journalistic precedent. One of the country's large dalles recently announced that henceforth it would apply the "And Sudden Death" method in reporting major traffic accidents. The descriptions will no longer be confined to medical terms and softened phrases. They will include factual word pictures of smashed skulls, of compound fractures, of spurting arteries, of crushed chests—all of the horrors that are part and parcel of the accidents which claim 35,000 lives a year in this country. Newspapers large and small could well follow that example. The driver who reads simply that John Smith was killed when trying to make a corner at high speed often passes the news by with a minimum of thot. If he read, instead, that it was necessary to scrape John Smith's body from his smashed car, and that recognition was made possible only by examination of his dental work, he'd remember it. It's time we faced the gory facts—time we all realized that the scene of an automobile accident can be as horrible as a battlefield. And it's time we remembered that automobiles have killed many more Americans than have all the wars of our history.
IS THE TIDE TURNING?
Months ago, Mussolini began shipping thousands of soldiers to the Italian colonies in North Africa adjacent to Ethiopia. For years he had been preparing for this war, or rather massacre up to date. His army had been equipped with the latest and best of everything used in warfare, and he was bent not only on avenging the disastrous defeat at Aduwa in 1893 but really the conquest of Ethiopia. All this, and more, is known to the world, today.
If Emperor Haile Selassie is to be criticised for anything, it is his too long delay of the mobilization of the Ethiopian army which he did not start until a month or so ago, long after Premier Benito Mussolini began sending thousands of soldiers to the Italian African colonies. Mussolini was quick to take advantage of this condition and started his war, or massacre, sooner than any one expected, particularly the Ethiopian emperor. The result since could hardly have been otherwise—a one-sided war, or massacre, all in favor of Italy. Nations were forbidden, until a week or ten days ago, to sell munitions of war to Ethiopia, leaving her practically "hamstrung" until this embargo was lifted by the League of Nations, ten or more days ago.
Last week the Ethiopian army in the south of that country, at last fairly well equipped with the munitions of war, particularly machine-guns, obtained in the last ten or more days, gave the Italian army in that section of the country three stinging defeats, according to dispatches from Ethiopia to daily newspapers in this country. Has the tide begun to turn? It would seem so, especially since Emperor Haile Selassie's nearly one million warriors are being properly armed and furnished other necessary munitions of war. The Italian soldiers in northern Africa with their native assistants, residents of their African colonies, number 400,000, according to reports from Africa highly colored in favor of Italy.

MOVE PHONE LINES TO CLEAR WAY FOR CONSERVANCY WORK
Engineers Estimate Changes for Ohio Flood Control Will Cost $100,000
Moving and rearranging telephone lines of The Ohio Bell Telephone Company and the American Telephone and Telegraph Company to clear one way for the Muskingum Valley conservation and flood control program will cost more than $100,000, according to estimates on telephone and government engineers.
The telephone work, which is scattered throughout the conservancy area, consists mainly of transferring pole lines which now are located in territory to be flooded to form reservoirs. Rerouting of highways also necessitates moving of a number of lines.
One of the main Cleveland-Chicago long distance cables will be moved in two places in connection with construction of the Beach City reservoir. In other locations numerous rural lines and intratube cables will be rebuilt on higher ground. In the entire conservancy area more than 1,300 new poler and nearly 600 miles of new wire will be placed. In addition, miles of pole line will merely be transferred to new routes and reconditioned. Among the larger projects is the moving of a nine-mile stretch of pole line along the Little Stillwater creek near the Tappan reservoir at a cost of approximately $2,400. The Tappan dam will be located about eight miles southwest of Demison and Ulrichsville. Near the Beach City dam on Sugar Creek about 14 miles northwest of Dover, about a mile and a-nail stretch of the Cleveland-Chicago long distance cable will be moved at a cost of nearly $2,000.
Work Widely Scattered
Smaller job are scateted throughout the territories adjacent to the Wills Creek, Clendening, Charles Mill, Mohicanville, and Bolivar reservoirs. Completion of the telephone work depends entirely upon the progress of the dam construction and the rerouting of highways. Initial estimates may be revised either upward or downward should plans of the conservancy administration be altered materially in the future.

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 1894 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 it has been very effective. 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:
MOBS.
Section 6228 "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
6283. Person suffering death or injur
6284. Limitations of action.
6285. Order of the court's mercy and
6286. Guardian's custody, etc. fees.
6287. County's right of action against
6288. County's right of action against
6289. Non-relief from prosecution.
5222. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching
5224. Damages recoverable by injury by mob trying to lynch another.
5224. Limitations of action
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 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.) Section 6279. The term "mobious injury" for any such 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 of money or in any other manner as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.)
Section 6231. 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 received 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 allike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such injury, such shall be distributed among 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 6289. This chapter shall Section 6284. 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 held, include it with the costs of tax levy, 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 the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counterfeit goods for such recovery (93 w 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. 3) 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.
Sec. 12940. Wear or be using the proprietor or his employee, 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 nor more than five hundred dollars, or 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.

ASSASSIM
A Drinker of Hashish!
In eleventh-century Persia, a secret order was founded by Hassan ben Sabbah, indulging in the use of the Oriental drug hashish, and, when under its influence, in the practice of secret murder. The murderous drinker of hashish came to be called habash in the Arabic and from that origin comes our English word assassim!

How To Reduce Varicose Veins
Rub Gently Upward Toward the Heart as Blood in Veins Flows That Way
Many people have become dependent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swollen veins and bunches. They will get a two-in-one original bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first-class drug store and apply it night and morning as an improvement. Coining this quickly notice an old oil until the veins and bunches are reduced.
Moone's Emerald Oil is a harmless, yet powerful oil that and two ounces last a very long time, and so powerful is Emerald Oil that old chronic sores and ulcers are often entirely healed. It has brought much more worried people all over the country.
For generous sample send 10 cents (silver or stamps) to cover cost—mail direct to Moone's International Laboratories, Inc. Rochester, NY.

PELICUNERA BOUQUET MAMERA
Indians Selling Toys in Mexico City.
Prepared by the National Guild Society,
Washington, D. C.-WNU Service.
WON'T get to the situation in
any great city in the United
States, one dues in Mexico City.
1. states, one mid in Mexico City practically no night life in cates, cabarets and showplaces. By 9:30 p. m., except for patrons returning from moving-picture houses, the streets are almost deserted. Climate causes this. Because of high altitude, nights are often exceptionally cool. Dinner is usually served in the early afternoon and a light repast at night.
Late in the afternoon you see the city's busy shopping streets at their best. Crowds thong the famous avenues; taxis, busses, and private motor cars crowd the streets, where traffic is handled by policemen in white gloves. An old cosmopolitan marks the larger stores of Mexico City. In German stores you may see American-made machines, typewriters, tools, hardware, ice boxes, and furniture. Fancy American groceries and preserved meats are sold by Spanish merchants. Women's wear, soaps, perfumery, jewelry, silks, millinery, and other department-store goods are retailled often by the French, and in nearly all large stores English is spoken. In the past it was obvious that fashionably dressed Mexican women preferred hats, clothing, and shoes imported from Paris. Now, to a growing degree, American styles, especially in sport and street clothes, are closely followed. This is an influence, no doubt, of the moving-picture shows and increasing travel between the United States and Mexico.
American style and influence are reflected again, not only in dress, but in the occupation of Mexican women. There is more social and industrial freedom. Now a growing number of Mexican girls are employed as stenographers, bookkeepers, clerks, and telephone operators, and have well proved their fitness for a place in the new world of Mexican economics.
Since the passing of the Dlaz regime, changes have come fast. You see such change not only in new buildings, but in better communications, more people who speak English, more skilled workers, and a high standard of living.
People Eager for Knowledge.
The popular thirst for knowledge is bona fide and deep-rooted. Free libraries multiply and all classes and ages frequent them. In the library of the department of education is a room for children, with a famous artist's panels depicting a charming version of Little Red Riding Hood. Out in Chapultepec park, amid giant ahueteu trees that were there in Aztec days, stands the fascinating Quixote fountain. Tiled seats run around it and a statue of Don Quixote faces one of old Sancho Panza on his mule. Fitted into the base of the statues are bookshelves, with copies of Cervantes' tales and the works of Plato, Plutarch, Homer, Stendhal, and Goethe. Here flock the young and old men, who wish to be quiet and read the classics. Around the basin of the fountain runs a sentence, the first line of Cervantes' immortal romance: "At a place in La Mancha whose name I do not care to recall."
This forest of Chapultepec, inherited from the Aztecs, remains one of America's beauty spots. Its giant cypresses, known as ahuechetes, were old when Cortez was a baby. It surrounds a hill on which stands the castle of Chapultepec, a presidential palace. Here, in the old days, Montenexma had a summer palace. The name in Aztec means Grasshopper hill. When Maximilian and Carolina came they remodeled the old viceroy palace into a Tuscan style of almost Pompeian voluptuousness. Here is displayed that famous painting showing Cortez torturing the last Aztec emperor.
Tourists, especially in the cold winter months, throng the city in ever-increasing groups. Many come now by airplane, for regularly established lines tie the Mexican capital to various American cities. Between Mexico City and the Pacific coast port of Acapulco a motor highway has been opened, following in general the ancient military road used when Spanish gallons from Manila discharged cargo at Acapulco for shipment to Spain via Mexico City and Vera Cruz.
Out to historic Cuernavaca, where the American ambassador and others have country places, a scenic motor highway now leads, and likewise to Puebla, ancient and prosperous city. From the American border, motor highways, like the one to Monterrey, are beginning to penetrate, and it is only a question of time until touring motor parties from the United States will be
a common sight on the streets of Mexico City. It is a curious fact that nearly a century ago one visitor predicted that some day a public stage-coach line would ply from Philadelphia and Washington to the old Aztec capital.
Native Art Is Amazing
The art of the Indian and the modern Mexican intrigues every tourist. Whether one is lured by Aztec art in the museum, by native serapes or ceramics, by the many fine old paintings in the churches and galleries, or sometimes by the more futuristic murals and canvases of the moderns, Mexico City is, beyond question, the conspicuous seat of Spanish-American artistic culture in North America. The brush-and-pen achievements of mere school children and their plastic work in clay is inevitably a source of astonishment to foreign visitors. Even in early colonial days, a few Indian painters, trained by the paddes, painted pictures which attracted much attention in Europe; and today an increasing number of artists come to Mexico, not only to study the work of the ancients, but to mingle with modern native artists and to work in the atmosphere of the old Aztec capital.
Not only is the city the cultural center of the nation, but it is also the center of the publishing and book trades. Practically all newsprint and book paper used is made locally. Most Mexican writers—barring a few of the older men of letters who cling to the provincial capitals—reside here, and each year there is issued from local presses about 200 new titles, often reaching more than 2,000,000 volumes. Besides these, the numerous bookstores, large and small, sell a steady stream of books printed in Spain and France. The works of Spanish writers appear more popular than those of Mexican writers. About 4,000,000 books printed in Spain are sold in Mexico each year and perhaps 500,000 from France.
Some of the most colossal structures built by prehistoric men anywhere in the Western Hemisphere are found in Mexico. Mitla, Uxmal, Palenque, Chichen Itza, the incomparable pyramid of Cholula, its base greater than that of Cheops—all these are monuments left by forgotten civilizations.
The Ancient Pyramids.
Skirt Lake Texcoxo, on a fine motorway from Mexico City, and you soon reach San Juan Teotihuacan. Here, before even the Aztecs came, some mysterious race appeared, building its temples and pyramids with a symbolic art strangely like that of ancient Egypt. Here is the Pyramid of the Sun. On its summit, according to tradition, once stood a giant stone figure, which bore on its breast a great plate of burnished gold, fixed there in such a position that it reflected the rays of sunrise. A few furlings from here, on a strange road called the Path of the Dead, stands the Pyramid of the Moon. About the moon temple are many ruins of other structures adorned with oddly evil serpent faces which are carved from stone. Who built these marvelous works, now so still, unreal and empty? Certainly no native race in the last half dozen centuries has produced any architecture to compare with these ruins.
Persistent as Indian conservatism has been and deep as is the native Mexican love for handicraft, you see it yielding now to the machine age. Cigarette factories here are marvels of modern speed, efficiency, and mass production. Tourists visiting one famous factory, which employs hundreds of men and girls and has its own private chapel, medical department, school, post and telegraph offices, as well as a complete lithographing plant for its advertising work, are fascinated at the velocity of the great machines, which make nearly 16,000,000 cigarettes a day.
It is the mushroom growth of small shops, fostered by electric power and the new import tariff laws, which is most significant. In recent years an amazing number of necessities, formerly imported, have come to be made here. From a veritable host of tanneries comes leather of good quality, which is skillfully worked into trunks, harness, saddles, belts, boots and shoes, and handbags. Candy and cakes and soft drinks are important manufactures, and the output of ready-made clothing from cotton, wool, and linen has grown hugely in recent times. Railroad shops, iron and steel mills, as well as smelting and refining works, now give employment to thousands, and a new industry, airplane construction, is growing up.

Costume of Suede Is Top o' the Mode
THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIES
STOP, look and listen for it's most important news we are telling you —all about the latest sensation in fashion-london, namely the costume done entirely of handsome, colorful suede. In the perfectly stunning dresses, jackets, swagger coats and many-piece ensembles of all-leather which are stepping out into the limelight this season, an epoch-making chapter is being written into the annals of fashion history.
A significant thing about this intriguing all-leather movement is that designers have discovered that suede adapts itself with equal facility to formal as well as casual sportsy styling. Which is a line of thought to which our minds must adjust would we fully appreciate the broad scope covered in the new leather fashions, since bifurc to the mention of leather in a style sense meant its use for sturdy sportswear only. In the new order of affairs suede qualifies as aptly and happily as a medium for the loveliest and daintiest of formal evening apparel as it does for the sturdiest of outdoor garments.
To prove to your satisfaction the truth of the above assertion, we invite you to glimpse the "love of a gown" as pictured to the left in the illustration. The lady of the evening as here portrayed is Bette Davis of cinema fame. She is wearing an exquisite gown of white cheverita suede. Which goes to show that Hollywood agrees with Paris in this all-leather vogue now sweeping throughout the style centers of the world. An adorable gown, you will admit, is this beguiling suede formal. It has the slink, suave lines to which so many of fashion followers aspire. A high neckline
COLOR PERVADES
WHOLE ENSEMBLE
Color is not content this season to be a splash or a dab—it pervades the entire ensemble from tip to toe and has finally invaded the field of women's most conservative color necessity—silk stockings.
The traditional beige and gray tones have made way for red and green stockings. Wine red stockings are smart with all of the wine tones. Suede silk stockings are worn with greens and browns with green suede or antelope gloves, shoes, and bags to match. Very sheer, two and three thread hose, in green or red make their debut for dressier wear.
Navy blue hose are high style with a blue town suit collared with raspberry red velvet and worn with a matching hat. With a Veronese green dress accented in brown green silk stocks and brown shoes are news.
Some New Shades Added to
Hosiery for Autumn Wear
Hosiery, this fall is here in a variety of new shades. In keeping with a growing feeling of luxury in the evening mode, smart complements will provide for the gold, silver, and bronze slippers worn with gowns of Eastern influence. For darting series of browns will be best liked—golden brown, wine brown, brownhaut taupe with a rose cast, natural beige and copper brown—to go with autumn colors.
Smoother Hair Styles
Smoother hair styles are being seen for early fall. Advance styles would indicate that the elaborate rows of curls, popular for many months, are to be laid aside—until we all change our minds again.
Handbag Made of Wear
Handbag Made of Wood
A smart handbag is large and flat, designed to look like an enormous compact, and made of wood in a dark brown natural finish.
in front with low backline outlined with braided suede adds further distinction to this charming gown.
Suede evening wraps are also in high fashion, either of the short jacket styling or in loose swagger lines. Capes, too, if you please, some of which are elegantly collared with white fox.
To the right in the picture, Kathteen Burke, another favorite, is wearing a five-piece ensemble done entirely of handsome suede, in a fascinating tone of rich hunter's green. It is one of the hand-laced types (the skirt is sewn together with leather thongs) such as is foremost in fashion this year.
In fact, laceed leather is the password to high style in the thrilling suede outfits that are being turned out for fall and winter. For the seams to be laced together as here shown dates your costume as being unmistakably a "last word" creation.
In the instance of the five-piece "set" here shown, lacing is carried out along the edge of the side-front fastening of the form-fitting skirt, also on the collar and reverses of the swagger coat and two-bottomed vest. A saucy youthful suede beet together with a miser's drawing bag completes this perfectly stunning street outfit.
As to the cunning outfit below in the group it tells at a glance that it has gone decidedly "football." It is Maureen O'Sullivan, of film prestige, who in flying colors is scoring her touchdowns in this hand-lace suede suit of devastating chile. Even the buttons are laced as is also the pig-grain leather football hat. Her bag is of the same leather ingeniously shaped like a football. The suit's standup collar is news.
