WATERS FIGHT
AGAINST MOB

Washington, d. c., July 23.-AfteT
two-day battle with guns and stones
against white mob which besieged
their quarters near the Henlopen hotel
at Reboboth Beach, Delaware S. r.
Swansy, Howard University law stu
dent, accompanied by five companions
arrived here last week.
The beach is n small settlement of
300 whites and the hotel employs six
teen race walters. The mob was an
gered because the walters used the
boardwalk for a stroll after hours.
Among the walters employed were:
Headwaiter Charles Morton, Sales NJ
NJ. Bowens, James Watkins, Jennifer,
Benjamin Holmes, 62S Carlyle street,
Pittsburgh, Pa; Joseph Outerbright,
1211 Q street, n. w; Albert ]. Kenny,
142 w. street, n. w; Harry Trent,
100 block T street, n. w; and EdIen,
of the City Club, the latter five hav-
ing left with Swansy.

NEGRO MOUNTAIN Is HIGHEST POINT
IN PENNSYLVANIA

Other mountains ranging at or above
the 2,0O0-foot height are found in Pot
ter, Clinton, Susquehana, Laclawanpa,
Luzernt, Wyoming, Franklin, Centre
and Fulton.
1t is said that ''Negro Mountain"
was so named because of large num-
Der of Negroes who found refuge
there during slavery. They married
among the Scotch-Irish and now form
very beautiful settlement of ''white"
people with olive skin and black silken
curls. They are frequently spoken of
in Somerset township.
Another legend is to the effect that
Il Negro, through Il wonderful act of
bravery on this spot, saved part of a
British expedition under Col. George
Washington and General Braddock,
before the Revolutionary war The
county held special exercises at the
official dedication of the mountain
two years ago.

New York, July 1S.-In response to
numerous requests, the National Asso-
ciation for the Advancement of Col
ored People today published the full
text of the prayer uttered by Robert
w. Bagnall at the Independence Hall
ceremony in Philadelphia, Monday,
June 80. Mr.. Bagnalrs prayer was as
follows:
Almighty Father, the God of JUS
tice and of Brotherhood, who didst
draw from far lands Thy people with
vision to this country and into this
place. and move them to pen and sign
the immortal words that all men have
the inalienable right to Life, Liberty
and the Pursuit of Happiness; who
led them to contend and fight that a
Democracy might be established here
in this country-We come to Thee as
those who love this our blood, ana
those whose fathers shed their blood,
of four thousand of Thy children VINO
have been lynched and tortured, VINO
have suffered the agony of the fire
and the flame. Their blood cries unto
Thee from the ground, % Lord, How
Long-How long shall injustice pre-
vail? How long shall liberty be de-
nied?. How long shall the doctrine OF
equality be transgressed in the Land
which Thou hast ordained to be truth
Il Democracy
I'VE know that Thou art God OF
Justice and that Thou lookest upon
Injustice and wrong with anger; that
Thou desirest Thy children to cooper
ate with Thee that there may be end
ed lvnching. and discrimination, and
peonage, and wholesale murder, and
wrong Of every sort that disgrace the
name of this, the land we loye-our
land.
And so, o God, on this the BIRTH
place of Democracy, here reconsecrate
ourselves to fight with might and main
for our country, that here in this land
everything and at all times, all men
may have brotherhood, and equality,
and justice, and opportunity, without
regard to race or color.
'All of which we ask for the sake
of Thy dear Son, our Saviour, Jesus
Christ"

White Criminals
Outnumber Negroes

York, S. c., July 21.-White citizens
of this county are amazed at what
they term the gain of the white GRIM
inal class in numbers as compared
with the Negro. The population of
the county in whites and Negroes is
about equal, with an advantage in
favor of the Negro, whereas there are
ten whites to every four Negroes in
the county Jail. 1t is also bootlegging
and the crimes of the significant that
the offenses of the Negroes are petty
crimes such as whites include murder
and burglary. The whites are alarmed
to see the Negro law-abiding class
gaining on them.

Black Rapist Is
Proven white"

Fairfield, Texas, July 23.-The daily
newspapers of Texas carried an item,
played up on their front pages a few
days ago about an alleged attack upon
"A white girl at Fairfield, a little one
horse town in Central Texas where
six or more colored men and boys have
been lynched and burned to death
within the last two years for alleged
attacks and offenses upon white wom-
en- and girls.
A day or two later, hidden on a back
page in these daily sheets, appeared
very brief news item to the effect
that two white youths had been ar
rested and a third was implicated in
the assault and that his arrest was
hourly expected.
The Colorado statesman., 1924-08-02
"THE USUAL CRIME"

raping white women, although they do
not do it in the West Indies?
1t is reasonable to suppose that if
the Negroes do not commit this crime
where they greatly outnumber the
whites and where there is no danger
would take to it in country where
the whites outnumber them almost
everywhere, where all authority is in
the hands of the whites, and where if
they should commit such crime they
are almost certain to be caught, likely
to be killed without even Il semblance
of IL trial, and not improbably under
most brutal conditions attended by
atrocities such us are eldom found
even among savages?
What reliable evidence is there that
the assault upon white women by
Negroes has ever occurred or been at
tempted on Il scale sufficient so that
it might be considered as Il likely
danger? Certainly the say-so of those
who have been implicated in group
murders, called lynchings, say-so
which is not given under oath, and not
subject to the analysis of cross-eXam-
nation by legal counsel is not suffi-
ciently convincing.
Can it be that the usual crime"
does not exist and has not existed?
Il am speaking, of course, of its ex-
istence us racial tendency, and ex-
clude from consideration sporadic
cases of insane degenerates which oc-
cur among all races.) If so, it is one
of the most despicable lies of all times

Firm Made Rich by
Black Pa trOn s
Wants No More

Chicago. ILL.,, July 23.-ColOred citi-
zens and patrons of the Fish Furni-
ture Company located on State street
near Eighteenth, will be thrown into
CONSERVATION when they become ac-
quainted with the attitude of this
company which they have literally
patronized during the last few years.
1t seems that they will be brought to
their sense when the cold-blooded
facts, as they exist, will be presented
to them. A short while ago a local
business man while conversing with
Mr.. Ludllin, an official of the Fish
Company, was amazed with the bold
ness and audacity with which he pre-
sented the company's policies. "We
have 60 per cent. colored trade now"
states Ludkin, "and we do not wish
an abundance of colored patrons to
drive away what white trade we have
rs we plan to move into the loop
shortly and we wish to keep our trade
out here"
Continued the Fish representative
"On Mondays we have four colored
persons to every white customer and
we do not intend to jeopardize our
interest with further colOred trade
Sixty per cent. is enough, but when
we move into the loop we are going to
encourage cOlored people to trade here,
on Eighteenth and State streets, be-
cause they are familiar with the loca-
ton and will not interfere with our
white trade"
Edward Sworsky, bookkeeper and
collector for the Fish Company, was
found guilty of assaulting Mrs. Edith
III. Virtue, of 1925 Vincennes avenue,
before Judge Jacobs at the Wabash
Avenue Court. 1t was alleged that he
forced his way into her home and
used vile language. The Fish Com
pany claimed that he was not EN-
ployed to collect but that he was doing
so on his Gown hook" Whether the
owners of the company are willing to
abide by the policies advanced by
their employees is yet to be deter
mined. So far they have in no way
attempted to affirm or deny the
charges and accusations that have
been made against them.

To the Editor of The Nation:
Sir: Mr. Robert Herrick's remarks
on "the usual crime" in his article on
the Race Problem in the Caribbean,
published in your issue OF June IL, are
excellent, but not nearly strong
enough, L believe. The following eX-
perience shows how different is the
picture in the British West Indies
from that painted in our Southern
States.
Some years ago when 1 was on Il
steamer on my way to jamaica, L read
"White Capital and Black Labor" by
Sir Sydney Oliver (now Lord Oliver,
Secretary for India in the British Cab
inet). The following passage attracted
my attention:
Now the fact is that in the British
West Indies assaults by black or col
ored men on white women or children
are practically altogether unknown.
No apprehension of them whatever
troubles society. l say us an admin
strator familiar with the judicial sta
tistics, as resident familiar with all
parts of Jamaica and all classes of its
population, as the head of household
of women and girls which have fire.
quented the suburbs of Kingston and
lived for weeks and months In remote
country districts with neither myself
nor any other white man within call.
Any resident in Jamaica will tell the
s2.me story. A young white woman
yan walk alone in the hills or to King
ston in daylight or dark, through
pOpulous settlements of exclusively
black or cOlored folk without en-
countering anything but friendly salu-
tation from man or woman. Single
ladies may hire a carriage and drive
all over the island without trouble or
molestation. Offenses against women
and children come into the courts but
they are not against white women and
children. Whatever may be the cause
it is the indisputable fact that ia
maica or any other West Indian island
is as safe for white women to go
abont in, if not safer, than any Europ~
can country with which 1 am ac-
quainted.
Lord Oliver had been governor of
Jamaica for some years. 1 happened
to be seated at a table on this steamer
next to the Hon. f. St John Branch,
who was attorney general for the Brit
ish West Indies, and asked him what
he thought of divers statement.
After thinking it over he replied that
so far as he could remember no case
of assault or attempted assault of a
white woman or girl by a Negro had
occurred in the courts during his term
of office If I remember correctly, he
told me he had been attorney general
for seventeen years.
Consider the population statistics of
the Island of Jamaica: The total popu-
1ation (according to the 1911 census)
was S31, 1888, of whom 630,1S1 were
black, 163,201 "colored," and 1905
white. That is to say, there were just
fifty black and colored people to one
white person. Many of the judges, all
the policemen. and all of the troops
except commissioned officers were
blacks; and there was no such thing
as rape of white women
The Negroes are of the same races
as those imported to our country. The
slave ships came in general from the
same parts of Africa.
What is the answer?
Are we to believe that because of
real or imagined ill-treatment here the
Negroes have taken to the custom of

Smith is Candidate
for Governor

Cleveland, o., July 24-Harry c.
Smith, editor of the Gazette, a race
weekly, is a candidate for governor
of Ohio at the next election on the
Republican ticket.
George W. Shanklin, a contractor,
is on the ticket with him, running for
lieutenant governor.
Two years ago Smith startled the
state by polling some $4,000 votes
when he ran as candidate for the post
of secretary of the state of Ohio.
