President Harding’s address on the race question at Birmingham evoked statements from Democratic senators cr *f' ( izing the executive’s remarks and * rom Republican senators commending the president's ...... position. Democrats who criticized the speech included Senators Harrison, of Missis¬ sippi; Watson, of Georgia: Heflin, of Alabama, and McKellar of Tennessee. ; Republicans who in formal statements I declared their approval of it included ' Senators Calder. of New York: Spenc¬ | er. of Mossouri, and Willis, of Ohio. ; The Democrats declared that the president’s remarks on the race ques¬ tion were inopportune and that his policies would tend toward social equal¬ ity of the negro with the whites. Sen otor Watson, of Georgia, said the president's speech wan “unfortunate and misohlevious.” “We are not going to permit social or political equality of the kind the president advocates,” he declared. Called Courageous by Willis. Senator Willis said “the president’s ringing statement in defense of politi¬ cal and economic equality of individual opportunity with recognition of abso¬ lute divergence in things social and racial is as courageous as it is true.” “There is no use in anybody getting into a quarrel with facts, he added. “The president has stated the facts: political critics may wish the facts were otherwise hut that does not change the situation. The country win applaud President Harding’s clearness of statement and patriotism of pur¬ pose.” Senator McKellar declared th> president’s speech was “ill-conceived, ill- time, ill-placed and can serve no useful purpose.” “Us only effect,” he said, 'will be to arouse racial discussions and racial prejudices that had better been left dor¬ mant. Speeches of this kind will not benefit the negro and may do him seri¬ ous harm. “It is unfortunate that the president should have seen fit to discuss in the very heart of the black belt the- race question on his first trip South after his u ’“ election *'* to * the 1 '"' presidency. J "" There was no demand for a discussion of the racial question at this time.” Defense by Senator Calder. Senator Calder, Republican. New York, declared the president's speech courageous. “I thoroughly indorse the president's statement." he said. “I indorse his views for political rights for negroes. We have elected negroes to the New York city board of aldermen, and to the New York State assembly. If they should have the majority of votes they would he entitled to a seat in the t'nit ed States Senate.” Senator Heflin in his statement said in part: “Lincoln in his debate with Douglas in 1859 said: ‘I am opposed to making voters or jurors of negroes..' There is no escape from the conclusion that ab¬ solute political and economic equality between the white man and the negro means the wiping out of all color line in the partnership in business and in the election of negroes to office over white people. Social equality is next door to such a humiliating and dis¬ graceful policy. So far as the South is concerned we hold to the doctrine that God Almighty has fixed the limits and boundary lines between the two races and no Republican living can improve upon his handiwork.” Utterance Timely, Spencer Says. Senator Spencer said that “the time¬ ly utterance of the president is all the more necessary if there is any disposi¬ tion to disagree to its manifest truth.' “The president’s speech was unfor¬ tunate.’’ said Senator Harrison, "lnit to have made it in the heart of the South, where, in some states the negro population predominates, was unfortu¬ nate in the extreme. “Of course, every rational being de¬ sires to see the negro protected in his life, liberty and prosperity. I believe in giving him every right under the law to which lie is entitled, but to encour¬ age the negro, who in some states, as in my own, exceeds the white popula¬ tion, to strive through every political avenue to he placed upon equality with the whites, is a blow to the white civi¬ lization of this country that will take years to combat. "If the president's theory is carried to its ultimate conclusion, namely, that the black person, either man or woman, should have full economic and political rights with the white man and white woman, then that means that the black man can strive to become presi¬ dent of the United States, hold cabinet positions and occupy the highes places of public trust in the nation. It means that white women should work under black men in public places, as well as in all trades and professions. Impracticable. Calls Theory be¬ “I am against any such theory cause I know it is impracticable, it is unjust and it is destructive of the best ideals of America. “Place the negro upon political and economic equality with the white man or woman and the friction between the races will be aggravated. “Tiie president is right in that the race problem is a national one and not confined to any one section and his un¬ fortunate and mischievous utterance on the subject jw il! lie deprecated by peo¬ ple in every section of the country who believe in the preservation of white civilization.” Georgia, • said he Senator Watson, of regretted delivery of the address by the executive. when the "It is an unfortunate thing president of the United States accepts an invitation to speak in such South¬ ern States as Georgia and Aalahama and then finds it necessary to lecture their people about the treatment of the negro.” said Senator Watson. "As the president is a native of Ohio, he Van not possibly understand the our popula¬ sit¬ uation in the South, where tion is almost equally white and black. Denies Economic Discrimination. “There is no such thing as economic discrimination against the blacks in the South. They get equal treatment from our merchants and from our hankers. They themselves have made no complaint of racial discrimination in economic matters. "It is. therefore, a great pity that a Northern man, holding the highest of¬ fice on earth, should go down into the South and plant there fatal germs in the minds of the black race. “These germs will sprout into events which will not lie beneficial to either race As to political equality, it is m separatelv connected with social eqtial itv as the president himself will see when he gives the subject further con¬ sideration. of Alaliama, . “Does the governor indorsed the president’s Alabama should speech, think that have a negro governor instead of a white man like himself? Would he like to see negro bosses placed over the white boys and white girls? Fears Destruction of Civilization ‘‘Would President Harding be glad if his successor in the White House were to be a black man? Would the presi¬ dent like to see his cabinet tilled with negroes? “We white people of the South con¬ sider ourselves the legatees, the guar¬ dians and the defenders of a civiliza¬ tion slowly built vuKiit tremendous sac¬ rifice during thousands of years of he¬ roic effort. We mean to he true to our trust. We are not' going to permit any social or political equality of the kind the president advocates, because we know that it would mean the destruc¬ tion of the civilization which our an¬ cestors handed down to ns." Commended by Race Congress Tin- executive committee of the na tional race c-ongrqss, at a session here, adopted resolutions commending “the courage and wisdom shown by the president in going to the heait of the South rather than to the North or West, to present his solution of the so called race problem," and indorsing “his contention that white and colored citizens alike he given equal political economic and educational opportuni¬ ties.” M AGES ON RAILROADS SHOW HIGH AVERAGE Business Men Declare Adjustment .Must Be Made Before Prosperity Will Return—Railroads Losing .Money Atlanta, Ga., November 3—Statisti¬ cians and business men here, discuss¬ ing wages which was the hone ot con¬ tention in the threatened but now ealled-off strike, have compiled figures which show that as a self-constituted class, the 2,060.000 railroad employees are receiving the highest average pay of any men in the world. The average pay, as the figures show, is $40 a week. The average-pay of skilled mechanics and technical workers—a body of 4.000,000 is less than $30 a week. The average pay ot’ unskilled and non-technieal workers, a body of 6,000,000 men and women, is less than 520 a week. The average wage of the 8,000,000 men who work on the farms of the country to produce food is less than $10 a week with board, and a work day from 12 to 14 hours. Unbiased business men here declare that there is need unquestionably for an adjustment of the rialroad employ¬ ees’ wages. These workers, it is assert¬ ed. are at the top of the list now, and have the greatest measure <>f protec¬ tion as to working hours and condi¬ tions of labor, of any bode of wage earners in the world. Some limit must be placed upon the encroachments that labor makes on the railroad dollar, it is poizited out by those who estimate costs. The division of a dollar at present is determined by governmental action and not at the option of the railroad executives. The distribution, as statistics made public here show, is as follows: Labor r>9.9 cents; fuel (locomotive) 10.9 cents; material and supplies 17.3 cents; operating and miscellaneous, in¬ cluding loss, damage, insurance, inju¬ ries to persons, 10.7 cents; return on investment 1 cent. In five years the labor costs to the railroads have increased, the same fig¬ ures show, nearly two and a quarter billion dollars. Thi&, railroad men here admit, is out of all reasonable propor¬ tion tn the increase in operating rev¬ enue. Additional figures further show that in 1916 the railroads paid $1,468,000,000 for labor, or forty per cent of their to¬ tal operating revenue. in 1920 they paid $3,698,000,000 for labor or 59.9 tier cent of their total operating reve¬ nue. For the first eight months of this year the railroads earned—and these figures are verified by all railroad ex¬ ecutives—only $304,320,753—at the rate of barely 2.6 per cent on their mini¬ mum value, when the interest of their bonds alone require $475,000,000 an¬ nually. “Contrary to popular belief, the rail¬ roads have no guaranteed income of any kind, and they will have hard work to keep out of bankruptcy this year, through no fault of their own," declared a prominent railway execu¬ tive. Declaring that "The Public’s Rights are Paramount,” the following state¬ ment is made public here: “The railroads cannot make their revenue increase by edict; nro can they evade their fixed charges; or the wage scale decreed by the government. Labor must be made amendable to right, justice and fair dealing. To ac¬ complish this, public opinion must be awakened and that is the duty of the newspapers of this country. The world war is a thing of the past. The emer¬ gency measures it necessitated must be lifted or amended, before the ple can return to enjoyment and continued prosperity.” EUDORA Mrs. Kyle Allen spent last week with her parents.
