Charles T. Eversen who holds
forth every night at the Glide Rink
on 18th st. told bunch of his fol-
lows one night that it won't be long,
now" before they would be running
and jumping into the arms of the
first Negro they meet on the street,
and would feel mighty glad if that
Negro consented to let them stay
there when the Chinese get through.
He said the white folks had better
get in with the Negroes now, for
when the things got to going sure
enough, every man will want to be
black to keep from getting killed by
the Asiatic hordes swarming over the
Pacific Coast. He said San Francis
co win pay and suffer more than any
other part. For San Francisco has
been "real mean" TO the yellow peo-
Pile, and they are not going to forget
il. Everson is one who reminds us
of a Klu Kluxer but he almost hits
the nail on the head this time. White
folk keepin' on dreamin.'

Many readers of The Enterprise
want to know Why we don't jump ON
the Hon. ]. H. Ryan for denying him
self to be a Negro, and claiming to
be "colored" at the same time. Now,
readers, you didn't read well last
week. We explained to you that a
NEGRO, according to strict con-
struction, is a black person; Mr.. Ry-
an. not being black, can by no
stretch of the imagination be con-
sidered Negro. Nowhere in the
wide world would Mr.. RYAN be called
a Negro outside of the United States.
Besides. what difference does it make
to us. whether he wishes to be called
a NEGRO or not? Why should we get
excited and all "het up" over mans
private preferences? Too silly for
anything. Let all the colored folks
'pass" who can. We can use them
on the other side, if we but knew it.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

TENDER, he will have arrived by plane
in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Ven
ezuela and Colombia. He expects to
travel in the machines operated COM
mercially in Colombia.
An amazing story is making the
rounds in Washington in connection
with Gen. Leonard Woods presence
in the United States. The story is to
the effect that at no time during Col.
Carmi A. Thompson's Survey" of the
Philippines did President Coolidge s
special commissioner ever once men
ton the islands in his conversations
with Gov. Gen. Wood! That may be
why, Woods friends suggest, Thomp.
son came home favoring transfer of
the Philippines from the War Depart
ment to the Interior Department.
Gen. Wood in confidential moments
seldom leaves doubt of his belief that
permanent-or at least indefinite
American occupation is the islands
only salvation. In that view Wood S
strongest supporter is Aguinaldo, the
Filipino leader, who fought so long
and bravely at the head Of the native
armies against American rule in the
archipelago.
U. s. s. Detroit, European flag
ship Of Vice Admiral Burrage, who
brought Lindbergh home aboard the
Memphis, has just had a novel ex.
perience off the coast of England
fresh from her cruise from Boston.
While 200 of the Detroit's bluejackets
were on shore liberty at the seaside
resort of Hastings the ship was
thrown open to English visitors.
Meantime such a violent storm set
in that it proved impossible either to
bring back the Detroit's men or to
disembark the so or 80 landsmen and
landswomen who had come aboard.
The result was that the sailors had
a night out, and so did their British
friends.
Ambassador Herrick. who has just
left Washington after a brief Off
cial visit. pending another sojourn
in September before he goes back to
Paris, was left in no doubt of the
administration appreciation of his
"Lindbergh diplomacy" In addition
to bouquets from the State Depart
ment, Mr.. Herrick has been showered
with compliments from all parts OF
the country. Many persons singled
out the Ambassador messages TO
Mrs Lindbergh-'Your Incompatible
son is sleeping tonight under Uncle
Sans roof"-and to the President
recording French appreciation of Mr..
Coolidge's Lindbergh cablegram, as
Herricks outstanding acts. There's
a myth that American diplomats are
only supermessenger boys, who are
supposed never to be guilty of init.
alive Ambassador Herrick knocked
that theory into cooked hat when.
wholly on his own account, he took
"Lindy" under official wing at Paris
and paved the way for the most strik-
ing episode in recent Franco-Amer'
lean diplomatic history.
