INVESTIGATING RECENT
TROUBLE AT NATIONS CAPITOL
ln Acenciateh Nenrn Pressl

WASHINGTON, Ds Ci, Aug. A.
Race riots in the country as a sequal
TO the disturbances here were pre-
dicted by James Weldon Johnson, field
secretary of the National Association
for The Advancement of Colored Peo-,
pie. Johnson is in Washington invest
igating the riots here and endeavor-
ing to aid the authorities as far as
possible.
81 am afraid we will have riots else
where as a result of those here he
said. "When they come they will be
serious. The Colored men will not
run away from it and hide as they
have done on previous occasions OF
that kind. The experience here has
demonstrated clearly that the Colored
man will no longer submit to being
beaten without cause.
"Throughont the South we will find
that the Negroes are in a state IN
which they have never been befor>
In previous race riots. they have run
away and have been. beaten without
resistance, but now they will protect
themselves.
"The federal authorities must take
hand if the local OF state authorl-
ties are unable to successfully cope
with the situation. 1t is certain that
the thing which should be done is to
conduct sweeping federal investiga-
tion into riots in national capital.

LET US HOPE NOT
BY Associated Negro Press)

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 4.-If the
reports of the race riots in Washing
ton are as highly colored when they
reach Europe as are most stories of
events in the United States, the i'm
preston is likely TO be spread that
this country is i'm the throes of a civil
war, which will bar it from further
interest in world affairs for a time.
This is particularly unfortunate, for
it may become a spur to the restless
elements in European nations. "lf
the United States has started, il is
tie for u.s." may be the cry. The diff
ficulties of the various governments
are, therefore, likely to be consider
ably increased for few days.
1t is hard to believe that there was
any need for allowing this wretched
affair to develop TO the proportions
which it has attained if the authorities
had shown any reasonable foresight
and efficiency when the troubles be-
gan on Saturday night.
Will we not hear proposals from
members of the league of nations that
the United States at once adopted the
same laws for the protection OF racial
minorities that it is requiring in Pol
and, Australia and Roumania to enact!

THE FIRST LAW OF NATURE

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. A.
Residents of the downtown sections
and in the Colored districts in North
Philadelphia are claiming that the
sale of pistols and other weapons to
Negroes are increasing in an alarm
ing manner This has not been de-
MED by pawnbrokers and hardware
dealers, who maintain that there is
also an appreciable increase in the
sale to whites as well.
1t is known that the police and the
military authorities in and around the
city are watching the sitaution close
ly, fearing an outbreak in this city
as an aftermath of the race war now
in progress at Washington Duplica-
ton of the news from the capital has
caused much talk, particularly in those
sections where the Negroes and
whites mixed closely. With remem-
brance of serious outbreaks here dur
ing the war, the authorities are doing
all in their power to prevent recur-
renee.
Owing to the report that the naval
capital at Washington had been at
tackled by band of armed Negroes
in automobiles, and that wounded sail
ors and marines had been fired upon,
has caused feelings to run high at the
navy yard here. So open has been
the talk against Negroes that the lib
critics have been cut to the minimum,
and the same precaution will be OBJ
served as long as the naval officials

HOW TO COMBAT CURCULIO
AND GRAPE ROOT BORER

In many localities In the eastern
Part Of the United States the grape
curculio. which feeds upon the leaves
from spring to frost, Is the most de =
structive insect attacking this fruit.
1t may be practically unknown In
some places, but in nearby districts
may appear in such destructive num-
bers as 60 destroy each year from 35
to 100 per cent. OF fruit on all grape
vines that do not receive protection.
Another insect pest that is n menace
to many grape growers in the eastern
part OF tho country is the root
borer, which burrows into the roots
and causes injury similar to severe
root pruning. These two pests are de-
scribed. and control methods given, in
Bulletin 7S0 OF the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture. The curculio
can be successfully controlled by
arsenical sprays, the bulletin states,
but the only method OF combating the
borer now known is thorough cultiva-
ton. which destroys the larve and
puppe In the cocoons. and the practice
OF such cultural methods as will in
duce vigorous and rapid growth of
healthy vines.
The adult curculio is small and in
conspicuous. and a grape grower will
frequently lose within a short time an
entire crop Of fruit without being able
to determine the nature of the enemy.
The grapes will suddenly become
wormy and Will be ruined. At about
the time Concord grapevines bloom the
CurCuliO beetles emerge from hiherna
ton and appear upon the leaves. The
pest feeds on the upper surface OF the
leaves throughout the season. Ants
