FACULTY OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY REFUSES ADMISSION TO COLORED MAN; KLAN SPIRIT CAUSE, AVERS Roscoe Conkling Bruce, Jr., son of R. C. Bruce, former assistant superintendent of public schools of the District of Columbia, has just been turned down on his application for admission to Freshman Hall at Harvard University. The refusal to admit young Bruce to the hall is regarded by certain elements of the white press as a rebuff of social nature of marked significance. Recently, Harvard has been overstocked with Hebrews, which caused quite a stir among the Jews of the country. It is said that the Ku Klux Klan has a society organized there among the southern students, and it is generally believed that young Bruce is the victim of their "dirty work." When Roscoe Conkling Bruce, Jr., was refused admittance to Harvard last June because of the decision that all Freshmen must live in the Freshman dormitories and Negroes are not to be admitted to the Freshman dormitories, a number of Harvard graduates, including Moorfield Storey, former private secretary to Charles Summer, president of the Massachusetts Bar Association; Charles C. Burlingham, former president of the New York Board of Education; Edward Eyre Hunt, who was in charge of the American Relief Work in Antwerp and later during the war was secretary to the President's Conference on Unemployment, sent in a memorial which read in part as follows: "So far as we can learn, the policy of exclusion is based on the fact that residence in Freshmen Halls is now compulsory and the opinion that as men from the south and southwest come to Harvard in considerable numbers they should not be compelled to room or eat with colored men. "We respectfully submit that these are not sufficient reasons for abandoning the long and honorable tradition Harvard College." When Mr. Bruce learned that it was necessary to make reservation some time in advance in order to be sure of admission to Harvard, he applied to the Registrar and President Lowell answered as follows: "Dear Mr. Bruce: Your letter to the Registrar about your son has been given men. I am sorry to have to tell you that, in the Freshman Halls, where residence is compulsory, we have felt from the beginning the necessity of not including colored men. To other dormitories and dining rooms they are admitted freely, but in the Freshman Halls I am sure you will understand why, from the beginning, we have not thought it possible to compel men of different races to reside together." Mr. Bruce, after a time, answered in scathing letter in which he contrasted his opinion of Harvard with the fact of President Lowell's letter. Mr. Bruce's letter in part is as follows: "The policy of compulsory residence in the Freshman Halls is costly indeed if it is the thing that constrains Harvard to enter open-eyed and brusque upon policy of racial discrimination. "It is my deliberate opinion that some of these young men who, like my son, are after all Negroes by election, will nullify the policy of exclusion so far as they themselves are concerned, by simply not confessing themselves members of the prescribed group. Neither a mental nor a blood test will expose that helpful duplicity. With respect to these individuals (and they outnumber popular estimates), may not the policy of exclusion have the curious effect of promoting that very amalgamation of races which the white north vies with the white south in affecting to dread? "To proscribe a youth because of his race is a procedure as novel at Harvard until your administration as it is unscientific. "The differences in racial excellence consist in the comparative numbers of individuals to be found in the higher reaches of the vast curve upward of human quality and serviceability. And to assess the relative values of the several stocks of mankind en masse is, one must concede an exceedingly delicate and difficult, indeed perilous task" It remains to be seen what President Lowell's answer to this charge will be. Unquestionably, the responsibility is pretty squarely upon his shoulders. This government is based upon the fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his occupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position—Theodore Roosevelt.

C., Jan. 26 — The strong opposition in the committee on Judiciary of the Senate to the Bagget bill aimed at the Ku Klux Klan in this state which makes it a felony punishable by imprisonment for any person to appear off his premises disguised so as to conceal his identity, caused the measure to be referred to a sub-committee and a public hearing on the bill set for the Senate chamber at three o'clock Thursday afternoon. Phoenix Tribune key 10 Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes It is said that the Bagget bill has the support of the leading white citizens from all parts of the state, and that scores of them have indicated that they will be on hand to defend the measure at the public hearing Senator Squires announced to the senate that the measure would be opposed. The Bagget bill, which excepts from its provisions persons attending hallowe'en parties and properly conducted masquerades, and minors under 18 years of age, is one of the two bills against the klan now pending in the general assembly.

MISSISSIPPIAN IS PEEVED OVER CHARGE MADE BY OPPONENT MISSISSIPPIAN IS PEEVED OVER CHARGE MADE BY OPPONENT (Special to The Tribune) WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 26—In a bitter political contest in Mississippi last fall, J. E. Arnold, husband of a popular political opponent of Ross A. Collins in the Fifth Congressional legislative district, was charged with having "Negro Blood" in his veins instead of Choctow Indian blood as commonly understood. Advertisements were printed in Mississippi newspapers to this effect and resulted in the nomination of Collins. After the smoke of the political battle had cleared away, Arnold of Union, Miss., has filed a suit for damages against Representative Collins and Thomas J. Scott and Dr. F. J. McKinley, in the District of Columbia Supreme Court. The amount asked for in the suit is $130,000. Dr. McKinley is an agent of the Department of Interior in charge of Choctow Indian affairs in Mississippi and Mr. Scott is his assistant. It is alleged that McKinley and Scott furnished Representative Collins with false information, purporting to be records of the Interior Department, that Arnold's mother was a Virginia Negro woman sold in slavery to James Arnold, of Conway County, Ga., and that this woman, instead of a Choctow Indian woman, was the mother of the plaintiff. These charges were made in the political advertising of Collins. Arnold's contentions are summarized as follows: "Mrs. Arnold, wife of the plaintiff, was a candidate against Representative Collins in the Democratic primaries for Congress last year. Arnold was not a candidate, but in information obtained from these two Indian agents of the Department of the Interior Representative Collins published in a dozen newspapers in Mississippi charges that the husband of Collins' political rival had Negro blood in him, and was not of the Choctow strain. "Those advertisements, - of course, had great effect in Mississippi. Collins was renominated and Arnold and his family have suffered partial social ostracism because of these statements, which we are in a position to disprove. We have brought suit and got service on Representative Collins here," said Attorney Richardson, counsel for the plaintiff. sentatives by Representative Milliken of Union, provides for the registration of the membership of all secret societies. COLORED LAWYER IS ANXIOUS TO FIGHT WILLS AND DEMPSEY (Special To The Tribune) NEW YORK CITY, N. Y., Jan. 26 —The same grit and sterling elements of character which established one of the great historical stars of college football have impelled Paul Robeson to quit an unprofitable law practice and go in for professional prize fighting. "Law doesn't pay, so I am going in to fit myself to lick Harry Wills and then knock Jack Dempsey into a delirium of oblivion blacker than Harry's shadow." Paul Robeson, colored football, baseball, and basketball star at Rutgers University four years ago, and American left end in 1918, intends to follow the latter course. "Robey" is a lawyer by profession, but every day in every way business is getting worse and worse. The clients simply won't come. And as Paul is married and has a family, the necessity of clients is easily seen. So the big colored star, who weighs 225 pounds and stands 6 feet 3 in his stocking feet, intends to enter the ring within the near future to establish himself as the leading colored heavyweight contender. Harry Wills and Jack Dempsey are the men "Robey" wants to get, and he has not the slightest doubt as to his ability to tame the black panther and the artful dodging white champion.

YORK CITY N. Y., Jan. 26—Damon Runyon, the noted sports writer, in writing about the Siki-Carpentier "frame-up," and the profected Wills-Dempsey match, makes the following comment: "Jack Dempsey is returning East. On his arrival there will be much talk of different matches, of bouts with Willard, or Gibbons, or trips abroad. "This is excellent publicity. It seems to be forgotten, however, that Dempsey is definitely signed to meet Harry Wills, the Negro. "This match, made in good faith, will be carried out in New York next summer, if the boxing law is not in the meantime repealed. The match cannot be prevented unless all boxing is prevented. "You will be greatly interested in the report of the deaf mutes, experts in lip reading, who will see the moving pictures of the Carpentier-Siki fight to read the lips of Des Camps, Carpentier's manager, when Des Camps visits Siki's corner between rounds. Some think Carpentiers' manager was asking Siki why he did not "lay down" in accordance with the alleged agreement made before the fight. This is perhaps true. There seems to be no other reason for Des Camps visiting the corner of the Semegalese when he should have been looking after his own man. However, we should like to have these lip-reading experts see the films of the WillardJohnson fight at Havana, to see if they can tell what Johnson said to Jack Curley, the promoter, when Curley visited the Negro in his corner late in the battle. BALTIMORE, Md., Jan. 26—William Ruth must have been dazed or believed himself wonderfully shrewd when he attempted to pay a fine in traffic court with a raised bill. Ruth was sentenced last Friday in the United States Court to three years to the federal prison at Atlanta, Ga., by Judge Rose after conviction of passing $1 notes raised to $10. According to the testimony, Ruth passed several of the raised bills. To have a good appetite, have a good appetite for your work.

JACK JOHNSON HEADS $500,000 BUSINESS IN CITY OF NEW YORK (Special to The Tribune) (Special to the Tribune) NEW YORK, N. Y. Jan. 26—Papers have been filed for the organization of the J. A. J. Corporation, a concern that will manufacture an automobile and mechanics wrench, the invention of which is credited to Jack Johnson of prize fight fame, who has retired from his theatrical activities to head the corporation. He has been elected President. Sol Coleman will be the Vice-President, Max Rogers, Johnson's theatrical agent, is the Secretary, and Abe Coleman, the Treasurer. The concern is capitalized at $500,000, and occupies temporary offices at 245 West 47th street, New York. Plans have been drawn for a factory to be located at Ralston street and Queens Blvd., in Long Island City. The structure will be 150 by 200 feet. Johnson's invention has been approved by a number of practical automobile people, and seems to fill the need for a practical tool. While a comparatively cheap product, considering the quality of steel and the careful workmanship that enters into it, production in quantities sufficient to create a profitable market will in all probability oblige the corporation to offer a portion of its stock to the public, though no definite statement as this could be obtained.

TANNER OF A. M. E. CHURCH PASSES TO REWARD (Special to The Tribune) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Jan. 26—Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner, of the A. M. E. church, died last Sunday, closing a life of 88 years of which 67 had been devoted to Christian work. Old age was the cause of his death. Rev. Tanner was elevated to the bishopric in 1888 and always has been a conspicuous factor in the affairs, nationally and internationally, concerning his race; having often been a delegate to conferences across the waters. He was the author of many books concerning religion and the history of the Negro. Bishop Tanner was the oldest Bishop in the A. M. E. church and had been retired, but was ever active in the Christian cause. A son, Henry Ossawa Tanner, noted artist, is in Paris, and could not reach home in time for the funeral, but immediately sailed when informed of his father's death. Another son, Rev. C. M. Tanner, is pastor of the Big Bethel A. M. E. church at Chicago. Three daughters: Mrs. Mary T. Mossell of Chicago; Mrs. Belle T. Temple, wife of a presiding elder in the Pittsburg Conference, and Mrs. Bertha T. Stafford, wife of a St. Louis Physician, also survive him. Because we as a group are fewer in number, we should organize the more.

All that is necessary to make the city brilliant, is to burnish the latent talent until it shines with a brilliancy that dazzles and awakens the town into life and activity. There are few towns that encourage home talent as they should. They have comparatively few entertainments, and what they have are generally by out of town entertainers. Right here is where they are making the mistake that should not be permitted to continue. The high class entertainments, concerts and lectures by out of town celebrities are necessary to the life of the community; but there is a latent talent that will cost much less and entetrain more, right here at home. We pay high prices to people who come from a distance to entertain us, when we might be just as well, if not better entertained by our home talent, if we will only dig it up, burnish it and enjoy it. Doubtless, nine out of every ten, young and middle aged persons within the limits of our municipality, can be trained to make good entertainers. It may be brass bands, orchestras, theatricals, concerts, readings, lectures, talks upon timely subjects or scientific developments; but in any event, the talent is here awaiting development, and if we only get busy and utilize it, this community will take on a lively and happy attitude that will make its atmosphere attractive and enjoyable. It is no use for some to say we cannot do such things. We can if we will, and the more time we devote to these things, the better we can entertain and there are no foreign or out-of-town entertainers who can do better. Some may give us a lecture upon industrials and tell us things that will interest and instruct. All about us are things we know little of except in a general way, and very little at that. What we need is an awakening, a course of lectures by home talent, a series of concerts, also by home talent. In other words we may turn this entire community into a forum or entertainment bureau, with something to entertain us at least once a week, and while we are thus providing entertainment, we are cultivating in our people a self-possession and confidence that will be of great benefit to them as long as they live. The local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, under the leadership of the president, Prof. C. W. Hawkins, has come forward with an idea of this kind, and on Tuesday night, January 30, the first of a series of discussions will be held in order to develop home talent. This discussion, which will deal with the abolition of capital punishment n Arizona, will be followed by others of more or less importance at each meeting of the association which is held every Tuesday night at the A. M. E. Zion church, 10th street and Washington. Get busy, fellow citizens, and let us make this and all future seasons brilliant and instructive as well as entertaining to ourselves and all who may come within the corporate limits of our municipality.
