Dem0cracy's Enemy.

Race rioting in Texas, battling in
Ireland, insurrection in Silesia and
lawlessness between the fascist and
socialists in Italy-all in one days
news ARE enough to discourage pro
foundry all believers in democracy
Attempts to apply self determination
of peoples, and self-government in
place Of autocracy in Europe seems to
have resulted principally in bloodshed
and more tyranny than ever.
It is a strange example Of our de-
gree of progress in civilization that
criminal attack on white woman
by a Negro in Texas should not be q
matter for punishment according to
law but a signal for a battle between
the two races in the immediate local
ity.
Such divisions Of the people into
groups on the basis of race is only
one Of many. We have situation sim
liar to that in Europe, Of the division
of the people into many classes, ex-
cept that it is not geographical. The
general welfare is despised in the
struggle for occupation, previous ma
tionality or religion. It is a disin-
tegration Of democracy.
The experience Of the world is that
demo racies have failed, because Of
civil war among classes. IL the TWEEN
tieth century demo craeies are to be
preserved, it can be done only by TN
ceasing preaching and conviction of
the principle that no class can prosper
long at the expense of the general
good. Paul Pioneer Press. 5s

Work in Corn Production

More than $4,000 colored farmers
in North Carolina, Texas, and Vir-
ginia who raised 10000 acres of corn
last year under the advise of county
agents, employed comparatively by
the United States Department Of Az
riculture and the State agricultural
colleges, obtained average yields of
IS bushels an acre. The average for
all farms in these states ranged from
II to Is bushels an acre.
In Virginia nearly 5000 Of the COL
ored demonstrators planted pure seed
and about 1000 selected seed for their
1922 crop. All these demonstration
plats of corn were harvested except
81 acres, which were "hogged down..
1t is estimated that 70 per cent of the
colored farmers there are following
methods of growing corn taught by
extension workers.

SEGREGATE coLoRED AMERI.
CANS AT LINCOLN MEMO
RIAL CELEBRATION.

Colored Americans were segrega-
ted in the seating of the audience
during the dedication of the Lincoln
Memorial in Washington, at which
President spoke, it was learned today.
This information was contained in a
letter sent to the National Associa-
ton for the. Advancement of Colored
People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York,
by Shelby ]. Davidson, executive Sec
rotary Of the Washington branch N.
A. A. C.. P. Mr.. Davidson's letter
says in part
81 am herewith calling attention to
the dedication Of the Lincoln Memoir
ian here. The conditions which con-
fronted US as a race were the most
shameful and disgraceful in the annals
of history. Platform tickets were dis
tributed to the most representative
of our colored citizens, and when they
appeared, they found segregation run
ming riot. Platform seats reserved
for white were in chairs and within
hearing distance of the speakers, that
might be called reasonable, while
back of those seats were those re-
served for colored people, roped off
from those occupied by the whites
and placed about a block from the
Memorial in the grass and weeds,
with rough hewn benches without
backs or supports. ..
"Placed at the entrance to these
seats were marines who were dis
tasteful, discourteous and abusive
even to swearing in the presence of
our women who accompanied their
husbands to the celebration. Some Of
our people, be it said to their credit,
as soon as they saw the situation,
turned and left the dedication rather
than submit to the abuses offered
Them
1t is wonder that Lincoln did not
turn over in his grave. 1,
