JAPS NOT SATISFIED
WITH DELIBERATIONS
OF PEACE CONFERENCE

TOXIC, June 10. = Failure of the
Japanese delegates TO secure the in,
PRODUCTION of an equality of races"
clause in the league of nations coven-
ant caused deep disappointment thru
cut the Japanese nation and has
led to serious determination on
he part of the Japanese people. The
disappointment was all the more bit
ter because at first dispatch came
from Paris announcing the adoption of
the racial clause.
japanese who frankly discussed the
problem said they could not under
stand on what standards Japan was
judged to be first class power. If ii
were merely because Japan was strong
in naval and military sense, this was
not flattering to the japanese amour
propre, who would much rather have
it based on standards of civilization,
capacity and culture. Yet small coun.
tries like Holland and Belgium, they
said, are placed on a footing equal with
The United States, France and En-
gland.

the editor of one paper. at is as if
we had tumbled from very high preci-
pice We must look into our hearts.
examine ourselves rigidly and see why
we are not permitted to join the other
nations of the world on a footing of
real equality"
The Osaka Mainichi said: "The ad-
option of the American amendment for
the Monroe doctrine and the failure
of the racial amendment affords a most
glaring contrast as between a great
success for the United States and a
great failure for Japan"
The Toxic Asahi says, "Part of the
blame should be placed at the door of
European and American statesmen,
whose political conscience has been so
besotted that they do not understand
or respect the principle of justice and
humanity except when it is politically
used to their advantagesC

Phoenix Will Have
$4,000 Population BY

(AriZona Gazette, June 8, 1870
Phoenix, city of $4,000 population
by 1921.
That is not the dream of dreamer.
lor even the rawlings of a madman. It
is good, sound, conservative estimate
of the city's population two years
hence, based on the growth now be-
ing experienced
To have made such a prediction
years ago would have resulted in the
individual daring such a forecast to be
subjected to thorough examination.
But now even the most skeptical are
convinced that Phoenix cannot long be
withheld from the metropolitan class.
Just glance about you and see what
is going on and you will readily real
ize that Phoenix is enjoying the most
remarkable growth of it's history. Even
though you be a skeptic you must ad-
nit that there has never been such ac-
tivity heretofore
To your right you see new business
Blocks going up like magic; new apart
ment houses are being constructed to
meet the ever-increasing demand and
new dwellings are in the course of con
struction.
To the left you see more business
blocks in the course of construction,
more apartment houses and more
dwellings. In front of you are two or
three other new business blocks and
dozens of dwellings with a sprinkling
of apartment houses and behind you
are couple of more business blocks
and more and more dwellings and
apartment houses.
Phoenix is not to be denied. Why,
man, here is the future metropolis of
the southwest.
Phoenix is growing like that old pro-
verbal weed Someone once said that
Phoenix would never be much of a
city without a main line railroad.
Well, Phoenix is going to be "some
town." not because of main line
railroad, but in spite of one. You sim
ply can't keep a good man down." as
the old saying goes.
Where in all the southwest is there
such signs of prosperity? You might
fird them in some Texas communities
where great oil booms are in sway
But Phoenix is not experiencing an oil
boom; Phoenix isn't experiencing any
kind of a boom-it's just steady
growth-a growth founded on con-
crete foundation.
But give Phoenix the main line rail
road, to which it is entitled, and in
two years time. at the outside, it will
show a gain of $4,000 population
Phoenix is going to have main line

not long afford to remain out of this

Musical Comedy
Presented BY Company
Of Colored Performers
(Hy Associated Negro Press)

CHICAGO, June 10.-"We are the
most warlike people when let alone
the most peaceful when abused" With
this quaint bit of humorous philosophy
Billy King, the performer, ushered in
the most unusual theatrical perform
ance ever presented by the Race fol
entertainment.
The play, known in theatrical titles
as a musical comedy" is that, and
more. 1t carries a clever story bring
ing out the military success in France
the effort to get representation at the
Peace Conference, the handicaps, and
the final determination to continue to
be real Americans, and fight it out
ON this line" if it takes dozen sum
mers
During the dialogue of the play, per
tinent reference is made of the old
illinois Eighth Regiment" represent
ing the soldiers; the National Associa
ton of Colored People, representing
organization; the Chicago Defender
representing the newspapers, and Chi
cago, representing the best there is in
American democracy The play is
being produced for several weeks at
the Grand Theatre.
There are forty people in the com
pany and the principals are: Nine
Rose L. Tyler, Sadie McCarver, Ger
trude Saunders, Clarence Stevens
Maio Gerwood, Ernest P Whitman, M
I. Slater, Mamie Campbell and Billy
King. The costumes and various seen
ic effects surpass anything ever seen
in racial showdom.
Those who view the production de-
clare that the theatrical profession is
demonstrating its earnest desire to
push the program for real democracy
and justice. Mr.. King is one of the
best known performers and his home
in Chicago, 3219 South Park Avenue,
is regarded as one of the most beauti-
full and elaborately furnished of any
member of the race anywhere.

city. AS cities are more or less de-
pendent upon railroads, so are Fil-
roads dependent upon cities. 1t is
only. reasonable to expect. therefore,
that with the rapid growth of the city
and surrounding community railroad
officials will awaken to the necessity
of providing better rail facilities.
1t is only a question of time before
Phoenix, the hub of Arizona, will be
accorded it's just recognition by the
railroads. The only speculative fact is
just when such main line will be con-
structed. If the growth of the city
continues as at present it will unques-
tionably be within the next two years.
AS stated previously the present rap
id growth does not assume the form cf
a boom 1t is just natural growth
growth to which the city is, by all
rights, entitled to as the center of the
richest agricultural district in the
world, the capital of the greatest cop
per mining state in the union, the dis
tributing point for one of the most
rapidly growing states in these great
United States.
But there is a possibility that Phoe-
nix may experience boom at an early
date, which, of course, will give even
greater impetus to the growth.
