BALANCE OF POWER

the qualified opinion of the veteran writer James
Morgan that the "Sod South will be waging perhaps its
last battle for supremacy the northern Democrats
at the Convention this week Mr. Morgan has written
penetrating editorial the subject which appeared last
Sunday in the July g. Boston Globe Mr. Morgan makes
no bones about the fact that coored voters are sick and
tired of southern white supremacy Mr. Morgan reveals
that these voters by the reckoning of Jim Farley still hold
the balance of power if they vote solidy they did in
1896 Mr. Morgan writes:
.. the coored man has come between the Solid
South and its long time ally the Democratic cities of the
north"
The labor vote-white labor--has come between" the
north and south Democrats observes Mr. Morgan He con-
cudes that the Solid South on the way out Events at
Chicago may challenge his view.

SHIFT is POSSIBLE

In spite of evident enthusiastic Endorsements
being give nDemocratc candidates this time these
didaes fully know that by next November lot can hap
pen to make coored voters change their mind Outside of
the endorsements being given the President the Demo-
cratic Party whole has reason to expect large
number of coored votes until the Party Platform is an
nounced 1t is extremely doubtful any organization
CARELESS of claims made this year deliver the colored
vote This the year when white and coored voters will
vote just they please and since most of them will be
women they'll resent being told how to vote This is one
of the why the 1914 Elections may produce
surprises It is of the why the Democrats
should not be too cocky

COULD BE WORSE

Many profess to find faults in the 1914 Republican
Party platform 1t certainly is not as powerful as most
OF us expected We didn't get Wilke or Saltonstal We
anticipated stronger language Nevertheless even as the
G'oP Platform now stands, it is unquestonably cha-

their own national convention at Chicago It is almost

tower like giants when compared to the final results of the

disclosed that southern state coalition of Democrats plans

OPINIONS OPINVONATED
The 90 coIumn)
BY JAMES ECERT ALLEN

Whereas, many Jews have
rendered distinguished service
to our Association and the
cause for which we fight; and
Whereas many groups and
individuals have foStered and
supported anti-Semetic out
breaks abroad and at home;
and
Whereas the New York State
Conference of NAACP Branch
eS has adopted a program to
foster inter-racal improvement
at Annual Meetings held in
Jamaica and Rochester; and
Whereas, the New York State
Conference feels that this pro-
gram should be adopted by
Resolution in this Wartime
Conference and then submitted
to the six hundred branches
for action; and
Whereas we believe that it is
encumbent upon such an or
ganization as the NAACP to
take the initiative in rallying
to the defense of all oppressed
groups.
Be it ReSolued, that the
Wartime Conference meeting
in Chicago adopt a program
calling for action among all
the branches to wipe out anti
SemitlSnl especially among
colored; and
Be it ReSolUed, that the pro-
gram include the following:
(a) At least two meetings
held yearly devoted TO the
problems of anti-Semitism.
(b) That study groups be
formed where possible to eX-
plore the contributions made
by Jews to our national life
with special emphasis on the
benefits received by colored
people.
(c) That wide circulation be
given to the distribution of
pamphlets on the history of
the Jews.
(d) That arrangements be
made with Jewish leaders, rab-
bis and scholars for exchange
of speakers between the two
groups, Jewish and colored.
(e) That Youth Councils be
encouraged to write scripts
and plays relating their ex-
periences with people of the
Jewish faith.
ID That radio programs
be worked out where possible
to include colored and Jewish
participants.
(g) That the colored press
be urged to give publicity 20
the creditable achievements Of
Jewish people.
CHI That each branch be
asked to submit a report to
the National Office on it's &C
complishments in this field
during the next twelve
months.

past, some eminent philoso-
piers were asked to sum up
the entire wisdom in the world,
and they answered thus:
This, too, shall pass" I think
this answer is hard to beat.
Do you know anything in this
present which will not pass?
Do you know anything that is
not the evolution of some for
mer state or condition? King
doms and nations, manners
and customs, which were
thought to be "the last word"
in their day, have all passed.
Why, then, do some Of us think
that we have reached the end
of the trail, today? All that we
are doing is due to pass. HUI
manity is struggling on to uni
versal brotherhood, against its
will in many cases. We ara
subduing the earth while we
are trying to Subdus and con-
troll our fellowmen. We have
harneSSed the metals and min
erals to our service, are con-
quering the air, and have not
approached the end. When
present conditions have passed,
when present conditions have
passed, when racial and ma
tional prejudice are forgotten
by an intelligent human race,
then we shall be doing what
the Creator will for us to do
Subduing and beautifying the
earth, and making it a verit-
able garden of Eden for the
habitation OF mankind. So, to
all who feel peSsimistic over
present conditions, stop ones
in while and think, This,
too, shall pass"

the piano of Bernard Jackson,
