SAY EDGE LOOKS
To PRESIDENCY
State Democrats Say He's
Stealing wet Thunder
Legislative Action Heard

TRENTON, April 1.-THE first
step in the plans of the Democratic
party to make political capital out
of the recent session of the lesisla-
ture, was taken today when the
Democratic State Committee discuss
ed ways and means to capture the
legislature for its party at the cleo
ton next fall.
James r. Nugent, proxy for John
F. Monahan, of Newark, member of
the state committee, declared that
Republican State Chairman Edward
c. Stokes, and United States Senator
Edge were trying to steal the Demo-
cratic thunder on the wet issue. NJ
gent declared that the Democratic
party, having been wet" since 1919,
must stand consistently for a repeal
of the Volstead act. He asserted
that Senator Edge hoped to be the
only Republican Senator in the East
to be an out-and-out wet" and
thereby contest the presidential
nomination with Harding in 1924.
Nugent promised the state COM
mittee that next fall he would de-
liver Democratic Assembly dele
cation from Essex county and also
the Essex s~enatorship, now held by
Senator William II. Parry. indepen-
dent Republican. who has indicated
his purpose not to run for re-eiec-
ton next election.
State Chairman Harry Heller as
serted that one of the first things to
be accomplished in the coming CAM
paign would be to put the record OF
the recent Republican legislature be.
fore the people in the various couns
ties, in a publicity campaign of con-
siderable magnitude. 1t was declar-
ed that the Democratic party wish
ed the people to know that 1t was
going to send to the legislature men
who would work in harmony with
Governor Silzer.
Chairman Heller asserted that the
record of the legislature had demon
strated that it was impossible for
Governor Silzer to place any con
structive reforms on the statute
books with a similar law-making
body, and that to do so, 1t was nee
essary to place the legislature in the
hands of the Democrats. A plan was
inaugurated at the meeting yester-
day whereby the party would pro-
cur the best material in every
county of the state for the legisla-

Immediately.
Another meeting of the state COM
mittee will be held May 10, at which
county leaders will report conditions
In their respective counties.
Members of the state will canvass
the field in their counties and will
induce representative men among
to stand for election to
the legislature next fall.
Mrs. Robert +. Norton, of Jersey
City, member OF the state committee
from Hudson county, offered a reso-
luton at the meeting. which was
adopted, commencing Governor Sill
ger on his record with the recent
legislature.
State Chairman Heller officially
spiked rumors to the effect that he
wished to resign that Office, or that
he intended to resign his position.
"There are some people who
would like to see me out" he de-
clared, after emphatically denying
the report.

Some confusion has been caused
by the widespread publication of the
statement that applications for voca-
tional training could not he re-
ceived by the U. S. Veterans Bureau

to mean that no claims of anv kind

is a wrong conclusion. 1t is required
that claims for Compensation shall
be filed within five years from date
of discharge or resignation from the

that men who have any disability

1t may be said in perfect fairness
that DIR. Dubois has no peer on the

Moreover, he has Travelled extensively

Governor Sweet Stands
for Constitutional Rights
of Colorado Citizens
Rebukes Delegation Of Southerners
Who Seek His Aid to Promote
Separate School Idea

TTON. William Il. Sweet, Governor
n of Colorado, came face to face,
Tuesday afternoon in his office
at the state house, with the color
question and separate school bugaboo
that has been the uppermost topic in
the minds of some of the leaders in
certain. so-called Improvement associa-
tions that have sprung up in Denver
lately, and the Governor met it in
manner fitting and becoming the fair
minded executive of great sovereign
state.
A delegation led by L. J. Hines, who
is II prominent member of the Park
Hill Improvement Association, and
who has been loudest in the demand
for separate schools and residential
segregation, called upon Gov. Sweet
Tuesday afternoon in the executive
chambers and solicited his aid in get
ting resolution through the legisla-
ture demanding separate schools for
Denver. Mr.. Hines in the course of
his statement, and in order to lend EN-
phasis to his argument, referred to the
Negro in vile and opprobrious terms
so characteristic of some Southern
white men, and told of how the Negro
was treated in Mississippi.
Gov. Sweet stopped him in the very
midst of his TRADE and, looking square.
ly at him, said: You go back, south
of Mason and DiXon's line and handle
the school question in any manner you
see fit and we of Colorado will handle
the question here as we see fit. No
city in America has finer class of
colored people than are to be found in
Denver, and the relations between the
races have always been pleasant. l
very much doubt" said the Governor,
whether you could get the legislature
to consider such resolution as you
are seeking, and l would not sign it If
you did. If you will take the pains"
Gov. Sweet concluded, ito read the
constitution of Colorado, you will find
my answer to all such questions as
you propose"
The COLORADO STATESMAN
feels safe in assuring Gov. Sweet the
heartfelt gratitude and appreciation of
every Negro citizen in Denver for his
fearless stand in favor of justice and
constitutional liberty.
