PROFESSOR SHOULD INFORM
HIMSELF.

About a year ago a distinguished
professor in Columbia University as
serted tina, the negro race Is gradn'
ally disappearing through inerm1r'
rage in the South. This astonish-
ing statement was sharply CONTRADICT
ed by leading Southern newspapers
New Haven Register.
The Daily Press does not recall
the circumstances. but it is OF the
opinion that il any leading Southern
newspaper" gave up its space to a
refu;a,ion CT such an assertion from
a palpably uniformed source. it did
so with the object of ridiculing III"
freak utterances and not to reassure
home readers.
In the South such an expression
as that accredited to the Columbia
professor might arouse wonderment
as to what vicissituies thrust into
a prcSessorship anywhere an ALLEGED
educator so ignorant of the true
, social conditions In great section
Of the union.
But after marveling that the I'm.
s,ructor's' views hadn't landed him
in a New York insane asylum rather
than in a chair at the Columbia Uni
versity, Southern interest naturally
would cease.
However. if the unnamed professor
be still at large, his attention Is mere
or less respectfully called to the &C
ton a short while ago Of the Circuit
Cour. OF Prince Edward county. Vir-
ginia. wherein q white man and a
black woman were sentenced each
, to eighteen years in the peni,entiary
upon the charge Of nisceseaation.
Even in this case. it appears that

ed TO show that. as a matter Of fact.
he Is white.
The Columbia professor should
come South and study. But he is
warned that it would not be entirely
safe to bring his hitherto expressed
views along with him.
