NATIONAL REPUBLICAN coNVEN
TION TO BE HELD IN CLEVE-
LAND JUNE 10, 1924
Negro Republicans From South Win
Fight for Larger Representation.

Aside from the selection of the city
in which to hold the national cOnven-
ton next year, the one big issue be-
fore the Republican national commit
tee which met in Washington this
week was the matter of reducing the
number of delegates from the South in
the next convention, as recommended
by the subcommittee some time ago
in an effort to avoid the scandals usu
ally growing out of the selection of
delegates from that section. The move
was regarded as a direct blow to col
ored Republicans as for the most part
they form the major strength of the
party.
Negro leaders from all parts of the
country were drawn into the fight
with the result that the delegate rights
were restored to Southern districts.
Our own national committeeman Hon.
John f. Vivian was on the ground and
that his attitude toward our group
was duly appreciated is evidenced by
the following telegram which came to
the city Thursday morning.
Washington, ID. c., Dec. II.

 Tn the psychological sense, as dis tinguished from the political, not only are men created unequal, but the ex- tent of the inequality surpasses any thing heretofore conjectured.
