BIRMINGHAM, ALA.
ny The Associated rres.1

BIRMINGHAM. ALA. Oct 26.-The
right OF the American negro TO
broader political. economic and indus
trial privileges based on a pride of
race. but never on an aspiration for
social equality, was championed by

question.
The Presidents address. which
brought him to the South for the first
time since his Inauguration, was de-
livered at a semi-centennial OF the
founding Of the city OF Birmingham.
II was devoted almost exclusively TO
the race question, although Mr.. Hard
ing also took occasion TO praise the
South for its industrial recovery and
10 renew his faith in the world leader
ship Of reunited nation.
