Washington, May l3.-To a caller
today President Taft reiterated the
announcement h. made soon after his
Inauguration that II he appoints any
Southern negroes 20 Office they will
be given places either In Washington
or in the diplomatic service. Strong
pressure is being brought to bear upon
the president by Southern republicans
in behalf of the negro leaders. VINO
did effective work Tor the republican
ticket last fall and are demanding
recognition now. Mr.. Taft has refus-
ed even to consider them for federal
appointment IN the states in which
they live.
The president has made 1t clear that
he does not purpose to make appoint
ments that may lead to complications
similar to those resulting from the
appointment of W. ID. Crum as col
lector OF the port OF Charleston, S. c.
He has told the supporters of the
negro candidates 10 look around for
departmental positions in Washington
and for diplomatic appointments for
which they may be available.
In consequence OF the presidents
attitude there are many candidates
for the appointment of recorder OF
deeds in the District of Columbia, now
held by John C. Dancy of North Car
olJna. That place for many years has
been held By negro. The under
standing Is that Dancy will not be re-
appointed and that he will be succeed
