WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.--Presi-
dent Harding's address in Birm-
ingham on the race question was
described as an unfortunate and
mischievious utterance," by Sena-
tor Harrison of Mississippi, one of
the democratic leaders of the sem
ate, in formal statement issued
today. Senator Watson, democrat,
of Georgia, also issued state
mcnt in which he declared it was
"a great pity that a northern
man. holding the highest office
on earth should go down into the
south and plant there fatal germs
in the minds of the black race"
"The presidents speech was un-
Fortunate" said Senator Harrison.
"but to have made it in the
heart Of the south, where. in
some states, the negro population
predominates. was unfortunate in
the extreme.
"Of course every rational hu-
man being desires 10 see the negro
protected in his life. liberty and

every right under the law to
which he is entitled"
