Davis. emocr rgrln‘inee for President of the United States) referring to religious and racial freedom and toleration, in his speech of acceptance delivered in Clarksburg. West Virginia, last evening by an episode which occurr- ed in the same state in February and which came to a head last turda . 8“On in: face of it. Mr. Davis' ad- dress and a cowardly attack upon a. negro may seem to have no con- nection. ' How a. negro with a bullet wound in his back feigned death. while a hooded mob conducted a ceremonial over him on a lonely farm near Fairmont. West s'irginta. last Feb- ruary, was revea ed by authorities Saturday following the arrest of seven men on charges of conspiracy to murder. The negro was shot when he at- tempted to escape from the mob after he had been enticed to the farm by a white woman to whom it is alleged he had made advances. Those arrested on warrants sworn out by the prosecuting attorney in- clude a. coal operator and a minister. Some are in jail. others are releas- ed under $10,000 bail each, The minister and others, accord— ing to the prosecutor, are members of the Ku Klux Klan in “Test Vir- ginia. ‘ The connection between Mr. Davis speech of acceptance and the shooting of a negro is that a state which pvrmits mob violence amount- ing to attempted murder to be in- spired by a secret organisation, the outspoken crecd of which is anti- negro, anti-Catholic and anti-Jew. should be made to hear even strong- er declarations and sharper phrases on the meaning of constitutional religious and racial guarantees than he delivered. In commenting upon the religious freedom plank of the Democratic party, from which after bitter strug- gle in committee and on thevfloor of the convention was ommitted specific mention of the Klan. Mr. Davis said: _ "Vv‘e have taken occasion to re— affirmour belief in the constitu- tional guarantees of religious free- dom, and to deplore and condemn any effort from whatever source to arouse racial or religious dissen- sion in this country. Such a de- claration every right-thinking Amer- ican must endorse. No disaster that the mind can picture equals in its hideous possibilities the coming in this country of a. separation of its citizenship into discordant groups along racial or religious lines, Noth- ing would so utterly destroy our happiness and security at home and our 'dignity and influence abroad. Let us thank God with reverence that those who builded the inheri- tance we enjoy dealt with that question and settled it long ago. Let it be said to the immortal glory of those who founded the Province of Maryland that religious freedom (in this side of the water began with the Toleratlon Act which they adopted in 1649. It broadened with the years until it was written into the Constitutlon in language too plain to be mistaken that in this happy land of ours every man might. without loss or threat of loss, with- out lessenlng or threat of lessening, his civic, social. or political rights. worship his own way and fashion the one God and Father of us all. This toleration runs not only to the creed professed by a majority but to every creed. no matter how num- erous or how few its adherents. It was written, too. that church and state should be forever so far separate that neither the right nor the duty of public service should be diminished or enlarged by the roll- gious belief of any man. It is the solemn duty of every believer in American institutions t‘ oppose any challenge of this sacred doctrine. organized or unorganized, under whateveg- name or in whatever character it may appear. “From one who aspires to the Presidency. however. a declaration even more direct than this may rightfully be expected. I wish. there- not merely to denounce bi- gotry. intolerance and race pre- judice as alien to the spirit of America, I wish also to state how and in what way the views I en- tertain are to influence my actions. Into my hands will fall. when I am elected, the power to appoint thou- sands of persons to omce under the Government. When that dard of religious faith or racial ori- gin as a qualification for any of- fice. lly only query c'oncerning any appointee will be whether, he is whether he is competent.

I told him because I think he can help us." Grace felt as if her secret wore being shouted to the world. She had debated long with herself before conflding Lura. And now the real- isation that another knew—one a. stranger to her, made her almost frantic. “Oh. I can't Lace him again!" she cried. Irritation grasped Lura. “Grace! You MUST be sensible. You MUST keep your liead . . . . We need a man to help us in this, I mean some men besides the one you love. since} his hands are tied."

WORLD '10P! “EUROPE 13mm OFF THAN A YEAR AGO," SAYS COLLEGE PROFIZSSOR. An optimistic statement on the present economic situation of Eur- ope was made by Allyn Abbott Young, Professor of Economics at Harvard. recently in discuuing the financial rehabilitation of Europe. Leaving out Russia and Germany. he sail. the present economic cou~ dition of Europe was close to 90 per cent. of normal. "In the state of foreign trade, ag- riculture. industrial production, the budget, debts. currency, and in every possible way.” Professor Young said. “Europe is better off than she was a year ago. and was better cl! 9. year ago than the year before that." The chief didicuities of Europe. he sail. were financial. Want of credit and lack of ability‘ to pur- chase necessary goods. he went on. were what affected it seriously. “The financial dlsarrangements which the war has left." he added. “are by all odds the most serious in present an] permanent effects of all the economic heritages of the war." Europe's financial problems, Pro- fessor Young continued. fell ’ into three classes—budget. currency and foreign debts. including reparations. Discussing American policy with re- spect to these problems. he said: “We may be able to refrain from active political participation in Eu- rope. but whether we do or not. in view of the responsibilities put up- on Americans by the Dawes plan. we cannot avoid participating in the rehabilitation of Europe in an economic way. The possibility of European stability rests in part up- on monetary policy." "Vitai statistics are a good inlet of the adequacy of the material re- sources upon which human life is supported." he said. "Since the war the excess of births over deaths in Europe has been about what it was before the war. In Germany: Hungary. -Russia, Italy and Bul- garia the excess of births over deaths has been greater. on a com- parative scale, than in the United States. IF Germany. despite mal- nutrition. the infantile leath rate (the proportion of children who die within a year) has been about 18 per cent. as against 15 per cent. before the iwa'r." . _ » The destruction of accumulated wealth during the war was hardly of the formation of new capital. the Professor said. With respect to "working capital." such as stocks of goods, Europe was even now the better part of the year behlnl.‘ To repair such losses called necessarily for some lowering of the" average standard of living in Europe. but for nothing like enforced impover- ishment. ' i “The loss of liehed market connections has hu Europe's ex- port industries." he continued. “but this loss is more than oaset by the advantages given by her debtor po- sition. Foreign lebts burden a country. but stimulate its export in- dustries." , ————-—-———._—...___.. If you're active at labor And active at play.
