Seeks Test in Senate.

Bishop Walters. who called at the
White House to present his letter, said
that the negroes have waited long and
patiently to know what our political
status is to be under democratic rule,
and we trust that the President will
send to the Senate the nomination of
a colored man to an important Office
so that the test can finally be made
and we may understand fully how we
stand"
Bishop Walters declared he had every
confidence in the sincerity of the Pres
idents letter of three and a half years
ago. and that all he wanted was for
the President to permit the matter of
antagoniSm of the negro to go to the
point that the colored man could def
nitely ascertain what his status is to
BE-
I'VE have long known that there are
a few democrats in the south who do
not wish any of our people to hold Of
flee, but we do not believe that this
sentiment is strong enough in the SEN
ate to prevail against the broad-mind-
ed men of the party there,' added
Bishop Walters. The only way we
can actually determine how strong this
feeling against us is in the Senate is
for the President to make a nomina-
tion and let the fight come. If a ma
jority of the democrats there do not
want to have anything to do with US
we will prefer to know it"

ASKS SENATE TEST
ON NEGRO QUESTION
Bishop Walters Writes Open
Letter to President About
District Recordership.

Bishop Alexander Walters of the A.
NJ. f. Church, president of the Negro
Democratic League. the largest organ
izaton of its kind among colored peo
pie in the country. today addressed an
open letter to President Wilson urging
the President to put to the test the as
sertions that the Senate will not con-
firm negro to an important federal
office
Bishop Walters, long a stanch friend
and admirer of the President. and de-
pended upon by the White House for
advice as to the sentiments of negroes
in the country. recently saw President
Wilson about the recordership of deed1
of the District, and was told that the
President could not give the place to
colored man because of the bitter fight
that would be ensendered in the Senate.
Desires to Know Democratic Policy.
This was so disappointing to Bishop
Walters that he nov expresses the
hope that the President will not hesi-
tate to make the nomination of a col
ored man to the office or to one of
equal Importance. where senatorial
confirmation is required for we desire
to know whether it is to be the policy
of the democratic party to accord to
negroes the same rights and recoS-
milton granted to other citizens Of the
nation. Or. in other words, can the
democratic party afford to ignore
haif million voters on account of their
COLOR"
In his letter TO the President Bishop
walters quotes letter received by
hlm under date of October is, 1912, in
which the President. then democratic
candidate for the Office he now holds,
said that it was "superf1uous" for him
to assure my co1ored fellow citizens of
my earnest wish to see justice done
them in every matter, and not mere
grudging justice. but justice executed
with liberalfty and cordial good feeling
Every guarantee of our law, every prin-
clpie of our Constitution, commands
this. and our sympathies should also
make it easy. Ny sympathy with them
is of long standing"

THE THEATRES
1.-THE LITTLE CAFE"

Being n waiter is not only manner
Of earning a living. but state Of mind.
And John Mundy Is now convinced that
lie is no waiter. Mundy is an artistic
uctor-as artistic as q person can be
with a musical comedy, reputation: In
THE Little Cafe" which will be seen at
the Court Theatre Monday. December
Is (Christmas) matinee and night, he
has some plain and fancy waiting to DO.
And in order to lend realism to tho cafe
scene. and especially to help out Mundy
in his Caviar" song. three professional
walters are employed In the piece. a
professional waiter Is Il special type of
the human family that can never dis
guiSe itself, as everybody knows. And
the professional walters employed In
the musical comedy were exactly that
and then some. At least one of them
was. Mundy realized that he was as
ISOLATED with the genuine article and he
studied their every move and action in
order that he might be perfect in his
part. He prided himself that he was
doing fine. In fact. he thought he was
going so fine that he was calculating to
strike for a raise in salary-just lika
regular waiter. which proves just how
much realism he was throwing into his
work.
Then came the time when the naming
of subordinate members of the company
