radium is gathered by all living plants

WORLDS LARGEST SUBMARINE
WILL BE LAUNCHED BY
FRANCE MONDAY, TAKING
LEAD FROM BRITAIN

Paris, Nov. lie Scurcouf, the
worlds largest submarine, will be
launched at Cherbourg next Monday.
1t will have a fuel supply sufficient
to travei 1900 miles, or half way
around the world, without stopping.
The principal features of the new
submarine are as follows:
She is 400 feet long, with a sur.
face displacement of 3,257 tons and
a speed of 19 knots. She will carry
four 5.5-inch guns, fourteen torpedo
tubes, which can all be used at once,
with supply of thirty torpedoes:
She will have a small seaplane stored
on board. Her officers and crew will
number $50 men.
The armament of the giant SUBJ
marine will permit her to dive to a
depth Of 430 feet, 100 feet deeper
than any submarine has ever dived.
Her armament will be thick enough
to resist air bombs and anything but
direct hit from heavy artillery. She
will carry special anti-aircraft guns.
The provision for building the SUBJ
marine was made in the French naval
budget Of 1926. Another submarine
of equal power was planned, but it
has been found too expensive.
The largest English submarine,
which is now outclassed by the
French war vessel, cost more than
$5,OoO,OO0.

CLEVELAND ELECTS COLORED
WOMAN MEMBER OF BOARD
OF EDUCATION
Greatest Upset In History-Noses
Out White Rival
Attorney McGhee Lauded AS Man
ager of Campaign.

Cleveland, Ohio.-The greatest up
set in any municipal election in a
metropolitan city in this country took
place here on Tuesday of this week,
when Mary B. Martin, lone Colored
candidate, was elected to the Board
of Education of the city of Cleve-
land by more than $4,000 votes. Her
campaign was managed and directed
by Attorney Norman L. McGhee,
sometime editor of the Cleveland Call
and Post, and one of the prominent
Younger attorneys practicing at the
Cleveland bar.
The surpiSe was all the more
great for the reason that the present
members of the Board, four in num-
ber, had been endorsed by the three
metropolitan dailies, the Cleveland
Plain Dealer, Cleveland Press, and
Cleveland News and by a civic organ
ization known as the Citizens League,
which has for number of years pre-
sented slate of candidates for the
Board of Education, which is seldom
broken.
Her surprise victory startled poll
tlcal observers, who had assumed the
four present members up for re-elec-
tion would be returned without seri-
Gus opposition. Late in the ballot
counting, Mrs. Martin passed Rees H.
Davis, running for reelection TO the
Board, and with twelve precincts yet
to be heard from was ahead of Davis
by 3,347 votes. 1t was conceded as
impossible for the twelve precincts
to erase this margin.

ATLANTA ROUSED BY BOMBING
OF NEGSO'S HOME
Committees Demand
Apprehension OF Criminals and
Protection of Negro Citizens

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. 8.-Following
the explosion Of bomb last week at
the home of Herman White, 791
Proctor Street, interracial commit
tees of prominent citizens have taken
up with the police department, the
prosecuting attorney, and the cham
Der of commerce the question of Sc
curing protection for the Negro resi-
dents in that vicinity and of getting
effective action against those who
blew up the white home.
A committee composed of R. l..
Foreman, business man, Willis SUIT
ton, superintendent of city schools,
and James Morton, Secretary of the
Church Cooperation Committee, i'm
mediately waited on Chief of Police
James L. Beavers, and asked that
special police protection be given to
the citizens of the Proctor Street
neighborhood, who several times
within the last year have been ter
rorized by bomb explosions. The
chief promised the cooperation of
his department. A committee was
appointed also to wait on John A.
Boykin, the public prosecutor, with
the request that his department make
every effort to apprehend the perpe-
traitors and bring them to justice. A
third committee is to request the CO.
operation of the Chamber of Com
merce in the effort to put an end to
this sort of thing and safeguard the
lives and property of all residents of
the city. Further steps in the case
are being considered by the inter-
racial committee, which is deeply dis
tressed and humiliated by the situa-
ton that has developed and is earn
estly seeking means of effective
action against it.
The bombing occurred in a section
which is rapidly changing from white
to Negro occupancy, and is thought
to have been for the purpose of de-
terring Negroes from making further
purchases in this neighborhood.
