PRESIDENT HARDING
GIVEN COOL WELCOME
IN ATLANTA GEORGIA
Especial to The Tribune)

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. 25.-Georgia had
a number of the usual type of her
representative citizenry out at the ad-
dress of our chief executive.
The pride which Georgia citizens
take in published accounts Of the state
which holds the worlds record for
lynchings, midnight knights, general
lawlessness and pure, unadulterated,
all-around, ignorance was exemplified
by members of the supreme white"
element.
No president was ever treated more
discourteous than President Harding
who spoke here at the base of the
statue of Henry Grady in the heart of
Atlanta. Several thousand people
who surrounded the monument made
so much noise that only persons with
in few feet of the president could
hear.
At least three times, the president
stopped his address and urged quiet.
Governor Hardwick and State Senator
Adab, who presided, also appealed for
quiet, but the noise kept on.
| A motorcycle engine running not fal
away, patrol wagon with its gone
sounding and gang of young hood
lums attempting to push through the
police and military lines made the din
extraordinary. Turning to the quiet
side of the audience, the president fl
nally delivered the remainder of his
speech to those to whom can make
myself heard and who want to hear"

While they were dreaming the door
was thrust open and an excited woman
rushed into the room. my husband
hid $4,000 in those shoes l left" she
exclaimed. Here it is -madama," said
Sevilli. The woman gave him $40

FALLS ON QUESTION
OF BLACK AMERICAN
(special to The Tribunel


st. Joseph, Mo, Nov 26.-The test
Of American democracy is the Negro
Unless the white man can live side
by side with him, our democracy is a
failure" said Eugene Kinckle Jones
executive secretary of the National
Urban League. at the opening session
of the Missouri State Workers Con
ference in st. Joseph, Mo-, last Sum
day before an audience of twelve hun
dred white and Colored people.
Sectional sessions were held Mon

Colored social workers attended, this
year twenty-five from various sections
of the state were present The sec
ton on Negro welfare was under the
direction of Geo. w. Buckner, execu

Committee on Negro Welfare.
The survey on eleomosynary insti
tutions by F. T. Lane, Kansas City
and tht paper on conditions of rural
schools by C. G. Williams, state in

INQUIRY TO BE MADE
REGARDING CASES
OF CONVICTED men
Especial to The Tribune)

Washington, Nov. 25.-A resolution
requesting the secretary of war to in
form the house whether court evil
dence had shown conclusively that all
of the soldiers convicted for partici-
pating in the Houston, Teaxs, riot in
August, 1917, were guilty, was intro
duced yesterday by Representative
Anthony, republican, of Kansas. Nine
teen of the soldiers were hanged, 62
were sentenced for life Imprisonment
and five were sent to prison for Is
years, Anthony said.
The resolution asked whether it was
true that "some of the men now under
confinement were found guilty merely
because they were absent from roll
call on the evening of the riot" An
thony inquired as to what steps the
war department had taken toward in
vestigating "the justness or severe
penalties" inflicted and whether the
question of extending clemency had
been considered.

BEAUTIFUL CREATURES
ON EARTH SAYS WRITER
Especial to The Tribune)

Chicago, ILL.,. Nov. 25.--It has re.
NAMED for Chicago professor to adj
vance a theory of beauty which runs
counter to the standards which are
generally accepted in this country.
Fredrick Starr who spent several
months in Liberia. studying the native
races, is he man who has made what
some of us consider a belated discov-
cry, namely that real beauty is found
among the dark skinned people.
There are no beautiful women in
the United States. 1t is only our
American good nature that makes us
call girl who is not phenomenally
ugly, pretty girl"
Fredrick Starr, professor of anth-
ropology, has been added to the So
ciety of Noted Crepe Hangers by the
University of Chicago "co-eds" be
cause of the foregoing statements
which he made to a startled-to put II
mildly-class.
only among Liberian and kindred
races is real beauty to be found
These girls have American belle
looking like broken down vampires
They are pretty, because they are pur'
color race"
Continuing the professor stated. "a
handsome man OF woman is the rar
est of all creatures. There is no rea
beauty in the United States"
Our standards of beauty would b.
denied by any European nation" HI
said, "The Korean yellow race quite
frequently surpassesI US in specimens
of beauty. The Igorrotes { at the
World Fair were everywhere mar
veled at. for their physical attributes
Beauty in a blonde race is next tt
I impossible. 1T is more difficult fol
a blonde to- measure up to beauty
standards than lit lis for "a brunette
The same holds true of races. 1t Is
easier for the darker races to main
tain the high standard required Of
beauty experts than for the lighter
races

COLORED ATTORNEY
ELECTED TO OFFICE ON
DEMOCRATIC TICKET
Especial to The Tribunel

New York City, Nov, 25--John Will
liam Smith, a lawyer having office in
the Havenmeyer building, No. 26 Cort-
land street, and living at No. 145 West
13Sth street, who was elected alder
man in the 21st district, Harlem, is
believed by his friends to be the only
Negro ever elected to public office OH
the democratic ticket in the United
States.
The district lies between 136th and
114th street, east and west. The ter
ritory now included in it had been
nominally republican for years, the
republicans usually carrying it by
about 1000 when it was the. old 26th
aldermanic district, formerly the 2Srd
assembly district of which Moses Nc
Kee was republican leader.
Smith who has practiced law here
twenty years but never has held Of
flee, was nominated by the democratic
party against George w. Harris, a
Negro and republican, the present
incumbent, and Frank Poree, socialist.
He won by los plurality.
In explanation of his record break
ing election, Mr.. Smiht said yester-
day: "The Colored people have awak,
ened to the fact that politics IS no
longer religion but business. They
are awake to the fact that they should
support men and issues and not par
