BRITISH OUTRAGES UPON
THEIR PEOPLE
New York, Aug. 14.—The Chinese Stu
dents Club of Colorado college, Colorado
Springs, has sent to James Weldon John
son, secretary of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People, a
statement placing the blame for recent
disorders in China upon British police, and
asserting that unarmed Chinese students
were massacred.
The statement quotes from evidence
showing that most of the Chinest shot
were shot in the hack, that no British po
lice were wounded, that at least 70 Chi
nese were killed and 300 wounded and
that the massacre occurred during a parade
conducted hy the students in protest
against the arrest of fellow students by
the British police for making speeches and
! distributing handbills.
The statement includes a motion unan
imously passed by the faculty of Tsing
Hua college, Peking, including British and
American professors, which is as follows:
“Recently in Shanghai a number of Chi
nese students were shot and killed or
wounded by the British police. We wish
to voice our extreme indignation at this
I occurrence. For those who died and tor
the wounded, we feel the deepest sorrow
and we join in expressing our profound
' sympathy to the people throughout the
nation who protest against these atro
! cities.”

united in issuing a manifesto, the names
including Mrs. Henry Houghton, wife of
the president of Pekin Union Medical col
lege; Mrs. W. J. Calhoun, wife of the
former American minister to Pekin, and
other well known women.

Prompt Action by Officers Averts Race Trouble
Letters of thanks have been sent by the
National Association for the Advancement
of Colored People to Mayor Charles Green
of Battle Creek, Michigan, and Brigadier
General Benjamin A. Poore, commanding
officer at Camp Custer, for their prompt
action in suppressing what threatened for
a time to become a race roit between white
soldiers and colored citizens of the city.
The Calhoun branch of the N. A. A. C.
P., through Geo. W. Corrothers, its presi
dent; C. L. Evans, chairman of the execu
tive committee, and Carrie E. Foster, sec
j retary, makes the following report:
“The trouble started on Sunday, July
19, between 3 and 5 o’clock in a house
with a questionable reputation, among the
lower element of our race, a white woman
and a white soldier. The outcome of it
was that the soldier was cut by a member
of our race, not seriously, however, but
just enough to form an excuse for revenge,
not upon the man who committed the deed
but upon the race. This soldier was sta
tioned at Comp Custer which is located in
the immediate vicinity of Battle Creek.
He returned to the camp and that night a
large bunch of soldiers came into Battle
Creek anil were joined by Battle Creek
civilians and startl'd the trouble which,
however, was not of any great proportion.
“We wish to state here that as soon as
the major (Charles Green I of Battle Creek
was informed of the existing circumstancesi
even though it was in the middle of the
night, he immediately communicated with
the camp authorities (Brig. Gen. Benjamin
A. Poore, commander-in-charge) and they
in turn sent military police into the af
fee ted district and with the assistance of
the police and detective forces of Battle
Greek and the sheriffs department of Cal
houn county, order was restored for that
night. The following evening, however,
several of our people were accosted and
beaten by men wearing soldiers’ uniforms,
in the outlying district, just outside of the
city limits, in another part of the town.
There have been no lives lost nor has any
one been seriously injured. Since Tuesday
the camp authorities have kept ‘all of the
soldiers in camp, by order.”
LAW AND ORDER
BILL PENDING
IN GEORGIA
Seeks to Make End of Riots and Mob
Violence—Sheriffs Held
Responsible
ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 14. (Special).
—Georgia will join the growing list of
Southern states which are taking
active steps to end rioting and mob J
violence if the Legislature enacts the I
Law and Order bill introduced in the
House of Representatives.
The bill, entitled “An Act to Main-1
tain Law and Order,” provides that In j
any case of riot, riotous assembly, or j
mob violence, careful investigation
shall be made by the Judge of the i
Superior Court. If it apepars from j
this investigation that any sheriff, j
deputy sheriff, jailer, or other peace j
officer was negligent or incompetent
in dealing with such disorder, the
Chief Justice or other Justice of the
Supreme Court shall appoint a special
Law and Order Commision to hear all i
the evidence in the case and render j
judgment as to the faithfulness or \
negligence of the officer in question.,
If he is found by the Commission to |
have been negligent, judgment to that
effect shall be communicated to the
Governor, who in turn shall remove
the officer from his position. Proof
that any person was taken from the
custody of the officer by the mob, or
killed or injured while in his custody,
shall be prima facie evidence of ne- [
gleet, to be offset only by affirmative i
proof that the officer had in fact |
used all reasonable precaution and ex- :
ercised the utmost diligence in the ef
fort to maintain order.
The bill provides further that in the
case of an officer so adjudged negli
gent in the prevention of riotng or
violence, the Attorney General of the
State shall bring suit against such
officer for the full value of any prop
erty destroyed by the mob and for the
sum of $5,000 or each homicide com
mitted by it. Any person removed
1 from office under the provisions of
the act shall be disqualified for a
period of five years to hold any peace
office of the state, county, or munici
pality.
Friends of the measure point out
that it is in line with similar laws en
acted in other Southern states which
have been found very effective in
the reduction of mob violence. It is ,
said to be widely suported by re- j
ligious, civic and welfare organiza
tions over the State.

I schools, good rural churches, good
roads, wholesome recreation and pleas
ure if farm life is to prove attractive
in the highest degree. My efforts will
lie directed to help bring about an ef
ficient, stable and profitable agricul

lightened and prosperous land-owning
population is not only a great national
asset but it is the safest balance wheel
in our civilization.

HAWAII AN INTERRACIAL
EXPERIMENT STATION
(Columbia Press Bureau)
NEW YORK August 14.—
“Hawaii is not a land of hulu hulu
dances, grsais skirts and "ukeleles,”
writes Dr. Albert W. Palmer in his
book, "The Human Side of Hawaii.”
“Rather,” says the author, “Hawaii is
America’s and the world’s experiment
station in interracial relationships.
The sugar industry has changed
Hawaii from a simply Polynesian par
adise into a seething interracial pot.
All the racial groups have come by in
vitation. From a population of 57,
000 in 1872, the total has grown to
“07,100, of whom 63 per cent are
Asiatics, 40.8 per cent being Japanese.
Hawaii is an integral part of the
United States, and the greatest single
problem in Hawaii is the Americani
zation of her polyglot Oriental popu
lation, especially the children, who are
American citizens by virtue of their
birth under the American flag in
Hawaii.”
