alive 10 the recent disturbances at
Fisk University. Nashville, Tenn. 1t
is strong presentation of the case
frcm President F. A. Mackenzie 8
v:ewpo Mt, although it does not deal
specifically with the fundamental
questions at issue. 1t conveys the
information that practically all of
the students have returned to their
classes. The summary is as follows:
''Of the more than so students
from Nashville attending the Fisk
elementary school, none has been abl
sent single day. Of the "a high
school students, three are out. Of
the Al college students have thus
far February 2S) failed to return.
1t is to be hoped that the Trustees
will arrange for the visit of COM
mittee OF leading colored citizens
from various parts Of the country to
visit the institution and secure de-
tailed statement of the grievances or
alleged grievances that led to the
rebellion. No person who has

INAUGURATION

By the will of the people, the American
Government passes another four-year nilepoSt
in its quest for more perfect union. New
hands take hold of the same structure chlseled
out by George Washington and his fellow
seekers Of independence, cenented together,
though by the blood of fellow citizens, under
Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant; and
placed upon the high pedestal of world ap-
probation by such eminent presidential Sue
cessors as Garfield, Mckinley, Roosevelt, Taft
and Harding.
Of his own right and in his own worth,
President Coolidge now joins the chain OF
directors which, in peace and in war, has
bound together the American principles of
Liberty and Union We need not pause to
repledge Our loyalty and Our lives. Our past
history bespeaks, far more eloquent1y than do
our words of today Our ideal to serve Our
country We believe in Liberty and Union,
and we know that without those virtues
neither Government nor its subjects can hope
to enjoy the fulness of such freedom as the
world has right to expect of so brave and
so free land as America.
In the fashioning of the new American
progress, which begins with the Inauguration
of Our President, we ask for no special dlvlS-
ion or distribution of the blessings of our
Government, based upon any theoretical sepa-
ration OF us from the citizenry of Our country.
We seek merely just portion of whatever
benefits the Government and its directorate
may issue to all its citizens, We desire
nothing because of any special estimate which
may be placed upon us. But, when, as is
often the case, certain individuals and certain
groups do, because of color, single us out from
the American people, and set aside for us GER
tain ineq1ities, certain customs, and certain
practices, for which there is found no author
ity either in the u. S. Constitution Or in the
traditions of independence which form the
bulwark and the foundation Of the United
States of America,-then and in those cases,
we, as American citizens, as free and as brave
as any that may be found, do ask that the
forces and the individuals which Guide and
direct the destinies of this great country, in
woke ali the principles and all the law that
nav lie necessary in Our behalf, in order to
show the world, without fear or denial, the
truth that Liberty and Union in America, are
indeed as Daniel Webster said, one and lnsep-
arabic, now and forever.
