Gehrig was hitting along with
Ruth yesterday. getting two solid
whacks and driving IN two runs.
With both Gehrig and Ruth hitting,
the Yankees resemble an unbeatable
ball club.
Ruth's two doubles and Gehrig's
double combined with Bob Meusel's
home run-the only four hits the
Yanks made off Sherdel-were so
vitality placed that they mean three
runs.
And as many Cardinal fans won-

having one.fourth or more Of Indian
blood. It will be seen then that a
person with less than one'sixteenth
of Negro blood is to be regarded as
an Indian if that person has as much
as one-fourth OF more of Indian
blood.
The measure as passed by the
House of Delegates makes 1t impos-
sible under the statute to regard .
person as an Indian If he has I've
per cent. Negro blood and ninety
five percent. Indian blood. He
would be classed as a Negro. This
is why Hon. w. A. Picker is quoted
as making the astounding statement
that he did not believe that there
were any Indians in Virginia and he
and his associates are seeking to
establish this fact by statute. When
this is established, then the reserva'
tons occupied by the Pamunkey
and the Mattaponi Indians would
necessarily pass to the State of Fir'
ginia. There would be. legally
speaking, no pure Indians to occupy
them inasmuch as their status
would be changed to that Of Negroes
This will mean long bitter legal
controversy with the ablest attor'
neys in the commonwealth drawing
fat" fees from the poor Indians.
Certain it is the beginning OF a
bitter racial controversy for the
reason that some Of the leading
V'rginians in this State will be af'
fected by it. We have before stated
thai law, constitutionally speaking,
cannot be made retroactive. That is
to say, that the stat IS OF lnfans
born The day or the next day after
the new stature becomes effective
would have their status defined by
this legislation.
Once declared legally an Indian,
always an Indian; once legally and
constitutionally declared Negro
always Negro. The Negroes though
are becoming Interested in this new
legislation only for the reason chat
they do not care to have fifty thous'
and or more mixed white folks
thrown over into their reservation,
which is already crowded with a
population of Me past and is being
steadily augmented by the addition
of these white Negroes Of the pres
emil.
