This Georgia Editor
Thinks Time Not Ripe
For Equal Rights
(By Associated Negro Press)


Covington, Ca, May 21.-If the Cow
ington News. of this place, is the. real
spokesman of the South, there is not
much hope for the opportunity of see
ing the world wide democracy and flow
OF human justice that has been
preached about so much in recent
years.
Editorially, the News acknowledges
receipt of a copy of a bill recently in
troduced by Congressman Madden of
Chicago, the object of which is to re-
peal all Sim crow" laws. Accompany
ing the bill was cirular letter by ].
E. Johnson, Secretary of The Colored
American Councir' suggesting that the
News favor the bill.
The News proceeds to say concern
ing this suggestion:
For years an obnoxious element of
the Negro race has been endeavoring
to encompass the repeal of the Jim
crow law, but it will never prove
operative in Georgia, even if it will
receive the popular vote in Congress" +"
The News proceeds to declaim:
1.-The hypocritical plea is being in
troduced by the advocates of the bill
that the conduct of the Colored sol
diers in time of war was such as to
entitle the races to equal recognition
on the trains, but we predict that it
will be quite some time before the
passengers mingle in the same seats
down here in Georgia"
This bit of information is given out
to the world:
Johnson and Madden doubtless ina
gine they are very strong firm, but
they will receive little encourage
ment from Negroes in Georgia, who
are the superior in intellect and NOR
ais Of any other Negroes in the world.
Be it said to their eternal credit that
few Georgia Negroes desire to ride
in coaches with white passengers"

PHILHARMONIC CONCERT HELD
Event of Generous Proportions Of
fered by Society.

The Philharmonic Society's concert in
Carnegie Hall last night was one of
generous proportions. The programme
contained Sinding's ID major symphony
(his second), DvOrak's Slavonic rhapsody
in G minor. the Grieg plano concerto
and Liszt's Les Preludes" The pianist
was GuiomRr Novaesi The Sinding
symphony was given for the first time
here.
1t is a three movement work. The
chief theme OF the first movement,
which recurs toward the close OF the
finale, Is somewhat cumbrous phrase
but the composer succeeds in making
some effective use of it in his or-l Q trial
sonorities. The slow movement has
much fluent melody and some interest
ing harmonies, while the finale has
abundance of vivacity and color The
composition as a whole is not Of large
Importance. but 1t is decidedly agree
able music, and the wonder is that it
has been neglected while many less
pleasing compositions have been per-
formed
Miss Novaes was heard with en-
thusastic. Her audience responded
swiftly to the splendors Of her tone, the
ripping brilliancy OF her finger work
and the musical quality OF her reading
She played the cadenZa in the N;st
movement superbly.
