WOODROW WILSON AS I KXOW HIM BT JOSEPH P. TUMULTY. (Tenth Installment) CHAPTER XVI L FACING A SOLEMN RESPONSIBILITY Shortly after the Democratic Na I vMfitinn T mv. . dinner at the newspaper men's eottage at Sea Girt, to which I invited the Democratic candidate and the news paper men, in order that they might r be given a chance to meet Mm in the most intimate way to 'obtain from him what he was pleased to call the "inside" of hia mind. Upon tha conclusion of the dinner the Democratic candidate opened his heart in a little tela of the' must in timate and interesting c Imracter. It Bot only eontained hia views of the Presidency, but also a frank discus ioa of the great problems that would confront the next Administra tion. I this little talk he discussed Theodore R(.oseelt in an intimate way. In referring to Mr. Roosevelt, he said that he hud done a great service in rousing the country from Ha lethargy, nd in that work ho bad rendered admirable and lasting i service; hut beyond that he had failed, for he had not during his Administration, attacked two of the major problems, which he, Wilson, considered to be tha heart and centra of the whole movement for lasting and permanent reform in America. Discussing Mr. Roosevelt be aatd: ''K. nMmiMMl .f Ian ih millen nium. No public man bus a right to (0 so far afield. You have no right to promise Heaven unlets you can bring as to it, for, in making prom ises, yon create too much eipectn tion and your failure brings with it only disappointment and some times despair. As a crindidato for the Presidency I do not want to promise Heaven unless I can bring you to it. I ran only sec a little distance up the road. I cannot tell Ton what is around the corner. Tha successful leader ouLht not to keep too far in advance of tho mass he is seeking to lead, for he will soon lose contact with hem No nnusual expectation ought to be ereatcd by him.

My God gentlemen just think of the responsibility an expectation of that kind creates I can't reduce the price of bread. I can not strive ia the few yeaars I shall hsvc in office to remove the noi ious growths that have been planted in our soil and try to clear the way for the new adjustment which is necessary. That adjustment cannot be brought obont suddenly. We can not arbitrarily turn right about face and pull one policy up by the roots and cast it aside, while we plant another in virgin soil. A great industrial system has been built up ia this country under the fusterage ef the Government, behind a wall ef unproductive taxes. Changes must be brought about, first hero then there, and then there again We must move from step to step with ss much prudence as resolution In other words, we arc called upon to perform a delicate operation and "la performing a delicate operation it is necessary for the surgeon who uses the knife to know whero the foundaatiou of vitality is, so that in cutting out the excrescence i, shall rot interfere with the vital tissues. 'And while we do so we must ere ate by absolute fairness and open miiidedness tile atmosphero ef mtit sal concession.

READ TBI NEWS AND OBSERVER AND KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON Harding's Birmingham Speech Discussed by New York Colored Man HERE LIES CRUX OF PROBLEM, HE STATES Joseph Weldon Johnson, President of National As sociation for Advance ment of Colored People, Speaks His Mind; Aydlett Must go by December 23 The Newa and Obserber Bureau, 603 District Natl. Bank Bldg, By EDWARD E. BRITTON. t (By Special Leased Wire.) Washington, Not. 7. That Presi dent Harding would be praised by negroes and that tha negro leaden would exploit ta tha nttermost kit advocacy of tha negro in hia speech at Birmingham was only to be ex pected. It comes a a tu rally just as did the plaudits ef the negroes in tho audience at Birmingham which tweard him make the speech. Taking that speech aa tha text for unstinted praise of President Harding, Joseph Weldon Johnson, president of tha National Associa tion for tha Advancement of Col ored People, holds that it is the precursor to tha breaking down ef social equality lines, if tha program as laid down by President Harding is carried out to its logical eon elusion. Joseph weldon Johnson Is per haps the m oat - effective negro ia the United Mates, and the organize tion of which he is the president is the most effective of negro or ganizations. It is tba organisation which backs the appointment of negroes in government service where those negroes would have direct control of white employees, and it is the organization which is lustily calling for tha confirmation of Hoary Lincoln Johnson, the Geor gian negro, as Keeorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, a po sition which would make tha negro chief over soma SO to 90 white worn en.' Joseph Weldon Johnson and tha association of which ha ia tha head advocate social equality. That he looks to this as tha ultimate goal of the negro in his relationship with tha Caucasian is dearly shown ia an interview which be gave to a New York representative of tba Christian Science Monitor, of Boa ton. Consider This Cras af Problem. sIf President Harding means what ha sacs about economic, political and cultural equality and' ran pat H into effect, the other questions in volving the negroes of the United States can take ear of them selves," Johnson is quoted by the Christian Science Monitor as say ing. But that he tees tha lion ia the path in tha form' of tha white man who will not be blinded by sophistry and enter upon a program that ultimately means social equality is told aa ha further remsats: "If the results outline in hia speech at Birmingham are achieved it will be a miracle, in my opinion," And then Johnson in hia own words aives the evidence that despite Pres ident Harding having said ha did not mean soeial equality during the course Of his Birmingham speech thst this is what the negro seeks, and that the negro believes It must come if the Harding program is carried to a conclusion. Here is what he nn aa to this: Evidently he (President Harding) has devoted much thought to the question and he lays much stress on Mr. Iwgard's 'agreed divergence in tha physical and material, but there is inconsistency between that statement and his plea against so lidarity. How is 'complete uniformity of ideals, absolute equality in the rathe of knowledge and culture, eoual opportunities for those who strive, eanal admiratioa for thoee who achieve' to be brought about without equality of association t Is it possible with the American people to look on the negro as treading in matters soeial anl racial a eep srate path' and yet afford him equal itv of oDDOrtunityf If a man is ha manly equal, and there is to be an avoidance of class organization, all social divergence will be neutralized and only in that way will a oemoe raev endure. Hardiness Soeeah MtscMevoos. TlitfM.lv the Birmingham speech o President Harding has been termed mischievous. With it he has raised in the breasts of the negroes hopes of social equality which he will not be permitted to react, for toe wnite man will atand ok- guard at the threshhold of his soeial life. It is not possible ta give tha negro politi cal equality without giving the negro political office, and at least m In South this is not going to happen It is, of eourse, true that Republican administrations may appoint negroes to office for ss Johnson says: "They have the tradition of asso ciation with the party," but where 'hesc appointments are in the South they will breed raee trouble.

Introdue ing the film, he eiplaiued a bit of the rrgin of the idea, traced lt growth, and welcomed criticisms. The picture is the result of sii weeks of activity on Roanoke Island and several months of careful plan ning and preparation. It was staged and filmed last summer on Koanoke Island and to the event the people of Edenton, Elizabeth City, and Roanoke Island gave freely of thcr time and money. Dr. W. C.

It was a new thing for North Carolina. In fart, it was a new thing for any State and the experiment meant much to tha department. Yesterday Sir. Crosby received from W. J.
