COMMENTS ON CURRENT TOpIr,
BY DR.. W. ALEXANDER cox

I wish to express my sincere
appreciation to THE GUARD
IAN for publishing my weekly
contributions. Ny object is to
Offset insidious Democratic
propaganda, and to let our
people know that Democracy is
not a panacea for the ills We
suffer. From the letters and
congratulations that I receive
weekly I feel that I am getting
some good results.
Before the emancipation the
Democratic Party meant slavery
for colored people. Since the
emancipation the Democratic
Party has meant, and now
means persecution and segrega-
ton for the colored people.
That gives US a race problem.
1t is a dubious question. One
that We cannot win by support
ing the Democratic party.
From the election Just tabu-
lated, the solid south" got the
worst beating it has had since
the election of Theodore Roose-
welt. According to the press we
now have Republican Cover
nor in Texas. The former
President Roosevelt was in all
sincerity a friend to colored
people. 1t was through his in
fluence that Atty. william H.
Lewis, was appointed during
the Taft administration as As
sistant United States Attorney
General, the highest govern
ment post ever held by a col
ored man in this Nation.
Mr.. Lewis and more than five
thousand other colored govern
ment employees were Summar-
lily discharged when the coun-
try went Democratic under
President Woodrow Wilson. Few
of them have ever been replac-
ed. The reason seems to be:
President Harding was Presi-
dent only short time. Presi-
dent Coolidge was indifferent.
President Hoover never could
be considered as friendly to the
progress of the colored people.
Since their time the country
has been hopeleSsly Democratic,
and dominated by the policies
of the solid south. The last
election indicates a return of
conservatism, and the funda-
mentals of the American way of
life. After we have won the
war, we will be in the position
t omake determined fight for
our civil liberties.

Republic Steel
Breaks Record

CLEVELAND, o.. Sept. %
With nearly three and a hall
months remaining in 1912, stee
ingot production of Republic Stee
Corporation exceeded the tota
ingot production for the entire
year of 1910 on September 20
Ingot production for 1910, a rec
ord for Republic up to that time
totaled over 100000 tons.
This tonnage, G. M. Smith, vice
president of operations, pointed
out, compares with 1900, 900 tons
the last reported annual produc.
|tion of Japan.
This record said White,
twas made in the face of raw
material shortages I'm several
fields and only because Repub-
lies steel production units have
been working at near capacity
or better during all Of 1912.
eff shortages DO not become
I more serious, there Is q real
possibility that Republic will
substantially exceed its 1941
ingot production, which consti-
tuted an all-time record"

Farm Bloc PeriIs
Roosevelt S
Initiation Curb
Battle Over High Price
Ceilings Threatens Delay
in House. Senate Vote
BY WILLIAM q. NEAL
International News Service stan Writer

International news beruco s'A" "o'
WASHINGTON. Sept. 23.-Botf
the Senate and House toda,
moved toward crucial votes or
the anti-infiation bill with Presi'
dent Roosevelt's price-wage stabil'
ization program threatened b,
farm bloc" amendments.
House leaders planned to drive
the Steagall bill to final passage
while Senate leaders were fearful
that the battle over the farm
bloc proposal for higher price
ceilings will delay final action.
Farm bloc" leaders in botf
branches demanded that all farm
labor be included In arriving a.
parity prices-a for1nuls which
admittedly would carry parity tc
about 112 per cent-while Repub.
llicans chided Mr.. Roosevelt fol
failure to use all his presen,
power to put ceilings on fooo
prices.
TAFT BACKS PRESIDENT
The battle split party lines
Senator Taft tR) Of Ohio came Il
the defense of the Presidents
anti-infation proposals in thu
Senate and declared that IL the
farm bloc" am n d m ent Il
adopted the entire bill designed Il
meet the Presidents October
deadline should be killed.
The vote appeared so close ir
the Senate that Democratic lead
ers ordered a poll taken. Farm
bloc" leaders were confident thai
they would win and administration
leaders, abandoning their previous
claims, appeared jittery over the
prospect Of a decisive victory fol
the President.
A compromise may be sought by
administration leaders in the Sen
ate, under which price ceilings
would be fixed at about 1O5 PEI
cent of parity. The major purpose
of Mr.. Roosevelt's message asking
legislation was to obtain removal
of the 40 per cent restriction in
present law.
Senators Thomas CD Of Okla
homa and Hatch Cd of New Mex
leo led the Senate fight for the
farm bloc" amendment in the
face Of administration claims that
their proposal would force up the
cost of living and thus defeat the
White House program.
