DAUGHERTY GETS
PEEWSH ABOUT
RUSSIAN POLICY
Declares Any One Who QueS-
tons u. S. Course Is
NUT
BY LAWRENCE MARTIN
Copyright, 1924, by United Press.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 11.-Anybody
who questions the American Govern
raent's Russian policy is "a nut"
That is the official department Of
justice designation for them, an
nouneed emphatically by Attorney
General Daugherty himself.
Daugherty was asked to explain
these POINTS about the Government
foreign policy:
l. Whether the abundant evidence"
which he said in a formal statement
the department has Of communist &C.
tivities in the United States directed
from Moscow, warranted criminal
prosecution.
2. II SO, why the department does
not prosecute.
3. Why, If this evidence IS not suffi-
Gent to warrant prosecution Of COM
munists, alleged to be plotting over
throw Of America, It is considered
sufficient to warrant the State De-
partment holding recognition from
ARuss.a.
Daugherty Gets Mad
Attempts to question Daugherty fur
there appeared to anger him.
do you support these agitators?"
Daugherty asked. Are you one OF
these weak-minded people who talk
about free speech every time some
one tries to curb these agitatOrs?"
Finally he was asked why, II the
communist propagandists, who the
Government says are being directed
from Moscow, are violating American
laws, they are not Jailed.
He replied in effect the Government
does not Jail them because then a
'1ot of silly people" would start
parades and free speech demonstra-
tons.
Then Daugherty was asked whether
this Government is afraid Of these
"habby-minded weaklngs," who Sec
rotary of State Hughes regards as
dangerous enough to warrant with
holding of Russian recognition.
IF you ask that question seriously,
you are a nut, like the rest of those
that ask it," replied Daugherty. ITO
the extent that you think like they do,
you are a nut. This is the official de-
partment Of Justice opinion of you.
You are a nut"

BANS ON CLERGY
MASSES.

The Eighth Annual Convocaton of the
School of Religion of Howard University,
has lust closed its three-day session by sound
ing new signal Of alarm to ahe masses OF
the Negro clergy, which. to our humble
mind, is permeated with a goodly content
of forgetfulness, so far as the gospel of the
Nazarene, the greatest Of all preachers. is
concerned. The University President and
some of his chief ieutenants, in religious
matters at Howard, are said to be greatly
concerned about the matter Of the Negroes
spiritual leadership being placed in the hands
of more intelligent ministry before racial
progress can be made.
Said the gentlemen: There is one clergy
man for every SOS Negroes, while among
the whites there is one for every 6l5 of their
population. N must be made difficult tor
ignorant Idle, gifted with mere CAB. to hold
and establish little church organizations in
small, poorly-ventilated rooms.
From the above. we are not certain wheth-
er the Convocation was dealing with health
matters or religious progression, as its major
topic. If the latter was of much relative
weight, however, we do recall some Of the
advices Of Jesus Christ, as recorded in the
Good Book. as to the future spreading OF
His gospel The world over. We do not re-
call any particular concern which He

While the information is "hearsay, it

given to us by BROTHER, whose skin
hue was so light that he easily gained admis-
sion to the meeting as the purest Of Anglo

Aside. however. from the half-humorous
vein which runs through such assembledges
Of protest: there is the growing attempt to
find some way of evading the findings of the
u. S. Courts in so-called segregation cases.
From the time the Civil Rights measures
were found unconstitutional, the feeling has
grown on the part Of jealous whites that
the u. S. Constitution should be revised,
and an economic ball and chain placed
around the BROTHERS ankle. In a
stride equally as vigorous, the BROTHER
has kept his knowledge and his vim apace

Quite contrary to the conclusion Of dhe
