A Brave Declaration

The overwhelming decision of the
Democratic National Convention to
ask for a repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment to the Constitution of
the United States is in direct CON
trast to the strading stand which
the Republicans took on this question
just few weeks ago. The 934 to
203 vote by which the convention
put its stamp of disapproval on pro-
hibition has caused many to marvel
at the stand against the dry measure
which the delegates from a number
of the so-called dry states took in
supporting the measure. However,
the vote of these delegates showed
a frank conviction on a law which
has never been under proper control
since it was enacted. Honest citizens
appreciate the frank position taken
by the Democrats on this question
which has been a bone of contention
for many years. This law was never
wholly approved by American people.
1t was never popular with them and
although millions have been spent by
the government in trying to enforce
it, it was never effectively carried
ont. The citizenry of the country
ought to be given a chance to voice
their opinions on this question and
to say whether or not they want the
prohibition law modified. The I'M
equivocal stand on this question
which the Democrats have taken in
this convention is both refreshing
and encouraging to the many millions
who feel that the matter should be
put up to the voters to decide.

Real Public Servant

A newspaper publishers meeting
in Kansas City last week broadcast
a word of optimism.
They issued no statement declar-
ing when the economic depression
will end. They announced no sure
cure for race prejudice and racial
ills.
They discovered, they said, that
their cooperative movement pays,
and in addition there is in every
community of $4,000 or more Ne
groes, enough business to warrant
an investment in a weekly news
paper.
That is a cheering word to $50
weekly newspapers in the U. S. A.
published by and for colored people.
The first colored weekly was pub
lished 100 years ago, but its sue
cessors have found their way no bed
of roses. The great majority of
newspaper publishers have had a
,one-man organization, in which the
editor was business, advertising and
circulation manager as well. The
struggle for success often was a
struggle for existence.
Now if the newspaper publishers
are to be believed the press is facing
better days. Thanks to its independ-
ence, its courage and its integrity,
the public has discovered it to be an
indispensable community servant.
In other words, what the publish
ers said was that despite depres-
sion, merchants are advertising and
subscribers are buying colored news
papers as never before.

One Hundred Per Cent

One hundred per cent American
ism, as, interpreted by the Ku Klux
Khan and similar organizations for
the maintenance of the Nordic
strain, means 100 per cent Anglo
Saxon.
A perusal of DR.. Edward Franklin
Frazier's new book, 1.-THE Free Negro
Family" recently published as a part
of the Fisk University Social Science
series, leads to the definite conclu-
sion that a 100 per cent Nordic in
the United States probably is as
rare as 100 per cent Negro.
DR.. Frazier quotes contemporary
whites Of 1880 to show that while
black husbands with white wives
were common in Pennsylvania, Mary
land and other Southern states strict
laws forbidding such unions.
No laws, however strict, were suf-
ficient to restrain Southern white
males, and Dr. Frazier cites case
after case Of Southern states where
large groups of free mulattoes
sprang up as result of mating of
white slave owners with the slave
women.
OF 80 free families recorded in
Richmond County, Georgia, in 1890,
DIR. Frazier shows that women were
the heads of twenty of them and
white men were the fathers of their
children.
In New Orleans special marriage
mills existed with public knowledge
and consent for Illegal unions Of
white men and colored women.
Descendants of these unions
sometimes joined the colored group;
frequently, however, they went over
to white race and lost their identity
Considering the large amount Of
race mixing that has gone on be-
tween Negroes and whites, Negroes
and Indians, Indians and whites, any
one who reads DR. Frazier's book be-
comes convinced that any kind of
racial 100 per centism is a myth and
an illusion.

World Interest

One often hears it remarked that
colored people seem to have little or
no thought about the relation OF
cause and effect. That, with them,
things just happen entirely free of
any connection with past events and
with no sign that might be taken
as an index to the remote conse-
quences of such happenings. But,
those who are better acquainted with
Negro reasearch in the larger fields
of human activity, are convinced that
when the emergency arises calling
for expressions of the best tradi-
tions Of manhood the Negro, in com
mon with other groups, will be found
thinking and acting in terms Of ma
tlonal and world interest.

They're Home Folks

During the GOOD DAYS before the
depression, American absorbed L.
100000 aliens a year.
J U. S, immigration figures for the
year ending June so, 1882, show that
only 10000 foreigners came to our
shores, which was $4,000 under the
quota fixed by law.
To take single case, in April,
1882, 1876 MeXicans came in COM
pared with 6,334 in April, 1923.
Depression is more effective than
governmental quota systems With no
jobs and little money available here,
aliens are staying home.
This gives us chance to do some
of the work in the cotton fields,
melon patches and fruit orchards of
California and neighbol'ing states
this year.
Oranges, lemons, pecans, grapes,
tomatoes, grapefruit, prunes and
plums are to be cultivated and har-
vested and Mexicans who have been
doing the work have returned home.
If California wants workers who
can work, let her raise her hand and
beckon to the Dixie black belt. These
black men will stick. They are safe.
They are efficient. They are home
folks.

ing economic conditions, which would
make it wise to withhold the order
from the long trek across the CONT
nent at such great expense.
Mr.. Wilson had been firm in his
intentions to hold the convention,
unless, as he stated last week, there
was strong urge for its postpone
ment, or the California Elks asked
that it be called off.
Meanwhile, he had announced that
his final decision would be rendered
after all the semi-annual elections
of the various lodge Officers had
been held, and the lodges had been
given space to register their express
sions with regards to Going to Cali
fornia. This required a period of
nearly Is days, and hundreds of ex-
pressions had been pouring into the
office of the grand exalted ruler
from all parts of the country, ask
ing his stand on the confab.
Meanwhile, the Grand Lodge cor
respondent, on a tour through the
South was gathering expressions
from the various lodges and leaders
scattered throughout the South, and
there was strong mass of senti-
ment in favor of the canceling of
the California trip, but all maintain
ing the hope that the convention
would be held, but at some more
easily accessible place.
This was the feeling in Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Lou
isiana, and Texas, as found by the
correspondent, Following this com
plete report on last Saturday eve
ming the grand exalted ruler off
cially decided that "there will be
no convention in Los Angeles"
Seven Cities
Seven Eastern cities, including
Washington, Pittsburgh, Indianapo-
lis, Louisville, Cleveland, Kansas
City, Mo-. and Baltimore are bidding
for the convention, with each ex-
pressing a willingness to come for
ward with the required $4,000 need
ed to finance the convention.
However, Washington is being ia
vored as the logical site for the meet
ing, due to It's location as the nu-
merical center of the membership Of
the Elks and its easy accessibility to
all parts of the country east of the
Rockies.
Mr.. Wilson has not stated where
he would designate the meeting, but
advised that he will call the members
of his grand lodge cabinet together
this week, and issue his ultimate de-
cision on Friday Of this week.

IL il be true that Roscoe Conk-
lin Simmons was the oratorical Won
der of the late Republican National
Convention, as the most of the dele
gates from this state have privately
declared, then Jack Sullivan, who
left Seattle for the convention to oc-
cupy that flambouyant position must
have returned home with his wings
badly clipped. However, since Sim
monds will hardly come West dur
ing the campaign bombardment, Jack
can continue to wear his spilets in
perfect peace.

At the November election the vo-
tiers Of Washington will choose
governor, a secretary of state, an
auditor, an attorney general, a su-
perintendent of public instruction,
land commissioner and three supreme
court judges. The governor will give
out some seven thousand positions,
directly and indirectly. Governor
Hartley is a candidate to succeed
himself and, of course, has the undi-
vided support of the present roster
of state employees, which gives to
him a favorable position in the GU
bernatorial marathon.
Three times before the secretary
of state has been elected and he is
again seeking the nomination. J.
Grant Hinkle, the incumbent, is
clever campaigner and to beat him
for the Republican nomination will
be hard task. He has score or
Htoit dppOiHbtCo uhdtT MN, WHO VIII
retain their present position, if he
is successful.
The auditor has many political
plums to hand out, but under c.
W. Claussen, who has held the office
for the past thirty two years, it has
been more or less closed corpora
ton. For the Republican nomina-
ton he will probably have the hard
est fight he has ever had and unless
he makes some concession to the
"outs," who think the "inns" have
been in entirely too long, he may
see the end of perfect day at the
September primaries.
In spite of bitter opposition, John
H. Dunbar has been repeatedly elect
ed to the office of attorney general.
Under him are quite few deputies
and stenographers, none of whom
brings to him any political prestige
or political strength. Ere the pri-
mary election it would be well for
Dunbar to do bit of political man
euvering.

The superintendent of public in
struction, DR.. Showalter, has a large
number of underlings. This being
their first term as yet, they have not
quite gotten their political bearings
and so they are closely hugging the
shore. Unless something radically
wrong be charged against the work
ings of this office the voters are not
inclined to tinker with the school
situation, but owing to the badly
disturbed political status of this state
at present, even DR.. Showalter will
have to do bit of astep and go fetch
it," if he desires to hold the office
as long as did his immediate prede-
cessor.
The stale land commandments Of
flee has more or less political patron
age attached to it and in the past
Clark v Savidge, the incumbent,
has handled it quite automatically.
Though exceedingly popular, yet he
is under fire just now and in order
for him to succeed in the coming
primary contest it looks very much
like he will have to make some new
political alignments.
Little or nothing can be said about
the supreme Judges that are to be
elected in a political way. but the
Unemployed League is said to be out
for the bench in both the state and
the counties where members thereof
are to be elected and hell may pop
there just as well as other places.
King County will select two coun-
ty commissioners, who have much po-
litical patronage at their disposal,
and, owing to the unemployed sit
uation much bartering and trading
will be INDUCED in before the two
will be elected.
Thirteen members of the superior
court bench are to be chosen and al
ready there is a mad scramble for
the nominations, Each of the judges
have at least two places to give out,
which will add spice to the fight.
The present lieutenant governor
is a candidate for governor, hence
new man is to be elected for that
office. 1t is without patronage,
hence there will be little or no strug-
gle for it, at least so far as the vo-
ters are concerned. Seattle has two
candidates seeking the nomination
both factionalists.
