Of Phelan's few worries IL this

McAdams looks like an all

In 3e7 plays for the Huskies last
year. the Is0-pound back had a
ground gaining average Of 2.2e

tons passers with an average Of

the team leader.
The Husky coach is back for his
i1th year with a squad OF 60 play
ers. including % lettermen. As
usual. the Purple eleven has a
tough opener-the University of
Sept. rs at Minneapolis.
Working with MeAdams in the
backfield are Jack Stockpool. 1876
pound fullback who compiled a
courtyard average in his sopho-
more year; Ernie Steele, one of
the most dangerous speedsters in
the conference; and Quarterback
Don Means. hailed by Phelan as
his smartest field general at the
OF Washington.
Two veterans, BIN Marx and

Criticizing
Roosevelt
Calls Mob Bill
Report "Pure
Fabrication"

CLEVELAND, Ohio - (SNS)--
Statements circulated throughout
the country in Negro newspapers,
charging him with having flayed
President Roosevelt on his silence
on the Anti-Lynching Bill in At
ianta recently, was a pure fabrica-
ton, unworthy of answering, de-
clared DR.. D. Ormonde Walker,
president of Wilberforce Univer-
sity, who was interviewed here this
week.
DR.. Walker further declared that
the Anti-Lynching Bill had re-
ceived more aid from President
Roosevelt than similar bills have
received from any President. He
said further that President RooSe-
welt had declared publicly in 1885
that lynching was menace to the
orderly process of government, and
that all we'll thinking Americans
s:hould join in stamping it out.
The very fact that the bill has
reached the stage of discussion IN
the Congress is an evidence that
it has the administrators sup
port. x7sr1
The Wilberforce Prexy also said
that Mr.. RooseveW had done too
much for the Negro in tangible
ways for any Negro to criticize him
for seeming lack of interest In
this controversial measure. Then
again Mrs. Roosevelt, the wife OF
the President, has said that she
hoped the bill would pass; but
that it was a real fight because of
The forces arrayed against 1t.
DR.. Walker further stated that
ne did present resolution in the
correctional Council of the AME
church in session in Atlanta, urg-
ng the ministers and 1aymen OF
he AME church to send petitions
20 their senators urging their sup
| oort for the passage Of the bill.
Concluding, he said that he not
7nly did not criticize the Fresi-
dent but is ardently advocating
and urging him to seek reelection
| for q third term, for 1t is only un-
| Ger such liberal leadership IS his
that anti-lynching legislation and
other legislation intending to give
larger freedom and civil rights TO
The masses Of American people may
be possible. He said emphaticaliy
hat we dare not take chance with
change at this time that may
lead to loss of the social gains
| that we have made.

Urge Negroes To
Aid In Census

TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala
C;olored persons throughout the
Southern states should take par
ticular interest in making the 1910
Census. which will start April l,
as accurate and complete as pos
sible. DR.. Frederick D. Patterson,
PRESIDENT of Ttlskeg.ee Institute,
believes.
''When this Census is finished,
certain sections Of it will constl-
tute the most complete survey OF
the resources and tine needs OF
the Southern Negro-urban ana
rural-ever made" DR.. Patterson
said in a recent interview.
"An intelligent approach to im-
proving the miserable conditions
under which Negroes all too fire.
uuently work, receive their educa-
ton. and live, must be based on
facts such as will be revealed in
this Census"
Dr. Patterson added an aSsur-
ance that no one neeo lear tnaC
any information given to Gen.
sus-taker would be passed on to
any other person or government
agency. An Act of Congress pre-
vents anyone but sworn Census
workers from examining the rec
ordS.
'T cannot too strongly urge that
every colored person visited by a
Census enugnerator do his best to
give prompt and truthful answers
to all questions asked" he said.
"Only in this way can the Negro
reveal himself - his accomplish
ments as we'll as his needs - to
the nation as whole. ;"

AS an example of what he meant,
Mr.. Howard cited Washington
County, where he said there were
between 900 and 1000 registered
Negro voters, who cast their bal
lots every election, and referred
those who questioned the fact to
DR.. Delaine, a leading physician
of Greenville, Miss, which is To-
Gated in that county. Dr. Delairle
is member of the state Republ1-
can committee.
I'm Hines county" Mr.. Howard
declared, where Jackson, the
capitol of the state is located, we
have a large registration of color
ed voters, both men and women.
For verification of that fact, I re-
fer you to DR.. S. D. Redmond
chairman of the Republican state
executive committee. In Laudetdale
county, in which is the city OF
Meridian, there are at least 1,O0t
qualified colored votes. AS to the
truth of that statement, I refer you
to DR.. r. B. Matthews and At
tornev Burns of Meridian.
POINTS OUT CASES
I'm jeff Davis County, located
in the southern part Of the state

tinued, there are a considerable
number of colored voters who vote
even in the local elections. AS to
the truth of this, | refer you Uo
President j. E. Johnson Of Prem

burg, Forest county, j. Brunds has
a fine organization OF quaAflec
voters; while in famous Vicksbure

white people of Mississippi and als'
Mississippi officials, is against th'
participation of Negro voters. I d.

not claim that the above figures
represent any considerable number
Of the people of the state, but in
spite of the obstruction placed in
our paths, in the last presidential
election in 1886, the ticket put for
ward by colored leaders polled a
total electoral vote double that OF
the lily whites.
PRODUCES FIGURES
Mr.. Howard produced the World
Almanac with the records of the
1886 elections and verified the fact
that his faction polled, 2,760 votes
to 1,675 for the lily-whiteS. The
democratic vote, however, was 157,
600.
"a number of obstacles are placed
in our paths. In Mississippi there is
a prerequisite of paying ones poll
tax for two years in advance OF
election and the tax must be paid
On or before the February of the
year in which elections occur. One
must also be able either to read a
clause of the constitution or inter-
pret the same when it is read to
him. These clauses are subterfuses
TO bar the colored voters"
While Mr.. Howard does not get
home to vote often in presidential
elections, he proudly displayed his
poll tax receipts for the past
years qualifying him as a voter in
Mississippi.
II recommend" said Mr.. How
,rd. "to improve the opportunity OF
more Negroes to vote, that Negro
| Democrats prevail upon white
| Democrats in the north, to influ-
ence their white Democratic friends
in the south to let Negro Democrats
participate in their primaries anC
in that way we will have more Ne.
groes registered and he will have
less trouble voting.
Then, too, when Republicans arr
in power and Negroes play a par
in distributing federal patronage
they are successful in getting NOR,
Negroes registered. That is wher'
we do our political trading. I an
