DEMOCRATS AssAILED
IN ROOSEVELT SPEECH

NEW YORK; Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt aroused his audience at
the Central Republican club, 23 West
124th ST., New York City, to high
pitch of enthusiasm by his Roosevelt
ian thrust at the Democratic party.
Il am especially glad to meet you
colored men and women here tonight
We hear great deal of talk these
days from Democrats who are trying
to fool someone by pointing to the
Klan as a menace. l wish to say at
the outset that the only race discri-
mination in this country is in the
Democratic Solid South, where the
colored citizen is prosecuted"

insured by the owners or mortgages
for protection. Loss by fire is not
as great as loss by bank failures.
Think how many homes you have
seen go up in smoke as compared
to bank accounts lost and you can
readily see that the loss by fire is
very small compared to the loss by
bank failures.
"If we have a home, say worth
$5,OOOOO, and turn it over to our
banker, he to receive all of the in
come from the said home for his
pay in handling it, and he rents it
at $4,000 per month and does not
think enough of the kindness be-
slowed upon him to insure the home
and it should burn while in his pos
session, without insurance, all the
banker would be deprived of would
be the income from the property If
the home should be sold for S5,000.00
and the money deposited with the
banker for safekeeping, do you not
think the banker would get tn ebene-
fit of using the $5,OOO.OO? In case
the bank closes, all the banker would
be deprived of would be the use and
benefit from the S5.000.OO; there
would be no insurance or protection
in behalf of the depOsitor. Is it
right and fair for the citizens of
Arizona to insure their homes, their
lives and thele automobiles for the
purpose of protection and place their
money in bar6s without protection:
II the banker who has the Income
from our home should not think
enough Of the income derived from
same to insure our home he should
not have the home, and l think the
same is true with regard to the
Gepositors leaving their money in
banks who are not in favor CT a
law for the protection of depositors
i'll state banks.
There are many states in the
union at the present time that have
laws protecting depositors in state
banks. The law proposed to be en-
acted on our statutes for the protec-
tion of depositors in state banks will
not raise taxes and the rate of in
terest, nor will it affect them, unless
it should tend to lower each. Does
the fact that an individual borrows
money and gives security to a bank
affect taxes? Then why should the
depositors requiring security from a
banker to protect deposits have any
thing to do with the rate of taxes
paid by property owners.
"A law for the protection of de-
positors in state banks is not radical
legislation. If 1 am elected to the
state Senate | am going to do all in
my power to place upon out statute
a law that will protect depositors
in state banks one hundred per cent
on every dollar deposited"

cooIidge-Dawes Club
Mrs. O. G. Howard, Deputy organ
izer of Colored women in Maricopa
County, motored to Mesa Saturday
evening and organized a Coolidge
Dawes club in that wide-awake town.
AS election day is so near and the
people will have only short time to
work, Mrs. Howard suggested that the
Colored men and women of Mesa or
ganize and work together for the
success of the entire Republican
ticket, State and National Accord
ingly, after the temporary organiza-
ton was formed, they proceeded to
elect permanent officers from among
those present. Mrs. Sarah Taylor
was elected chairman by acclama-
ton, Mr. N. Brigham was unanimous
ly elected secretary and Mr.. G.. P
Coleman was the unanimous choice
FOR treasurer. This organization was
supplied with Republican literature
and members began at once to dis
tribute same and pledged themselves
to work incessantly, enthusiastically
and zealously for the success of the
Republican party in the coming cleo
ton. Mrs. Howard made one of the
best campaign speeches ever deliv-
cred by a woman of our group, ex-
tolling the virtues of the Republican
party, and she was applauded to the
echo. She then introduced Editor A.
R. Smith of the Phoenix Tribune, who
in a few brief remarks explained to
the audience why it was incumbent
upon every member of our race to
vote the straight Republican ticket
at the coming election. Among
other things he said that every right
and every privilege that Colored
people enjoy under the Constitution,
were given them by the Republican
party. Following Mr. Smiths address
other members were given an oppor-
tunity to express their views, and
all pledged allegiance to the Grand
Old Party. There were over 40 peo-
pie present at the meeting Saturday
night, and all were for Dwight b.
Heard for Governor of Arizona and
Coolidge for President.
