VIRGIN ISLE. JUDGE

OOnLIuue0 lTOm rage O1lcJ
President Roosevelt has made up
his mind to take some important
and substantial steps in relation :
the welfare and aspirations of Ne
gro citizens. It is stated that the
President informally mentioned to
some persons close to him that the
confliction demands of Negro lead
ers had been a problem and a puz-
zle to him during most of his ad-
ministration, but that he had fin
ally evolved some plans of his own
which he hoped to get going soon.
The favor with which Atty. Gen.
Homer Cummings is said to regard
the appointment of a eoiored man
as Virgin Island judge may be one
of the signal steps in the Roose-

gro.
Congressman Arthur w. Mitch
ell, Chicago Democrat, has ex-
pressed the favor with which he
would regard such an appointment
and also his interest in it. It is
conceded that in the final selec-
ton of such a man, Mr.. Mitchell's
endorsement would be decisive. He
has taken extraordinary interest
in file Virgin Islanders and is Wis
ting the Islands this month ITO
see for himself He was in active
touch with former Governor Pear
son and had conferences with Mr..
Cramer after his appointment
