No Room for Divided
Celebration, Says T.R.
Fourth of July Not the Day
for Meetings Of Racial
Groups, Colonel Declares

KANSAS CITY. NO.. June a2.-In Al
editorial to be published tomorrow ~
the kansas City Star" entitled axn
American Fourth of July" Theodore
Roosevelt will say:
1T is announced that on the Fourth
OF July the celebration is to he Nv
race groups-that is, by Scandinavian.
Germans, Slavs. Italians, etc.
I'm sport organizas Ions it may Be
necessary to have kind of divided
celebration in some places, but | must
emphatica.Iy protest against such -
type Of celebration being general, and
doubt whether it Is advisable to hava
it anywhere
"on the contrary, believe that We
should make the Fourth of July !
genuine Americanization day. and
should use it to teach the prime lesson
OF Americanism, which is that there ID
no room in this country for the per-
petuation of separate race, groups. or
racial divisions; that we must al be-
Americans and nothing but Americans.
and that, therefore, on the Fourth 81
July we should all get together simpiy'
as Americans and celebrate the day es
such without regard to our several
racial origins.

Accused Draft Evader's
Dash for Liberty Fails

Clifford Rock, charged by Local
Board No. % with evading the draft,
made a determined attempt to escape
yesterday through the window in the
washroom of the Brooklyn County
Court House, where he was being de-
tained.
Patroman Stapleton, of the Adams
Street station, discovered Rock when
he was halfway out of the window.
Realizing that he could not pull him
back, the policeman rushed out of the
building and took up the chase. He
was joined by John Hill, Secret Ser
vice agent, and Rock was soon recapt-
ured and locked up in a cell.
