COLORED Law FER COMES
OUT FOR JOHN w. DAVIS

Philadelphia, PA am for John

States because he fought to keep
Jim Grove laws and grandfather
claims from being put on the statue
books of West Virginia"
This statement was made by Ed
ward w. Henry, president of the Col
ored Citizens Republican club of
Philadelphia, attorney at law and for
more than seven years practicing in
Clarksburg, w. Va.
John w. Davis is man Of destiny
and bound to win," he continued.
HE has been my friend for years.
The colored voters helped elect him
to the West Virginia Legislature, and
then sent him to Congress from the
CIarksburg district that had been
normally Republican. We never had
cause to regret our action.
"As Congressman, Mr.. Davis said
I love the Constitution Of my coun-
try and stand on it. I will never
consent to any citizens being de-
prived Of their Constitutional rights
as long as have a voice to oppose
it. And today colored people live in
peace in the home state Of John w.
Davis, if he still stands as know
he does, where he stood in the old
times. I am going to take the stump
for him all over the land"
The stand taken by Attorney Hen
ry, long an active Republican, will
probably cause him to resign from
the Citizens Republican club, the
Lincoln League and the steering
committee Of the Conference Of Col
ored Republican Voters Of which he
is secretary.
Major R. R. Wright, president d
the Citizens & Southern Banking
Company, one Of the largest race
banks in the United States, recalled
that, as Ambassador to England, Mr.
Davis has been exceedingly kind to
him when he was abroad on Govern
ment service in 1917. The Ambas-
sador enabled him to hear Lloyd

The sisters since enjoying the full free

known as subordinate to the brothers
and asked to use some other name
for them. The National Grand Mas
ter recommended that the National
Grand Master be given more power
in handling State Grand Masters and
Grand Lodges, but past experience
convinced the convention that he al
