INTER-RACIAL CONFERENCE GREATEST Many Splendid Addresses Heard; Co. Callahan Scores Race Hate In Politics From a conference replete with so many addresses, it is difficult to select two or three for comment. The two days' conference of white and colored women leading up the general Inter-racial Conference, was in some respects the most remarkable gathering ever held in Kentucky. Mrs. Helm Bruce headed the white group and Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune the colored group. The findings of the white group demanded the application of the principles of Jesus to the solution of the race problem, of the removal of misunderstandings, mutual steady of difficulties and appreciation of common responsibilities of both races; the sympathetic study of Negro conditions around Negro homes, churches and schools; better facilities for recreation; good housing, sanitation, sewerage and street lights for colored districts; a fair and equitable division between the races of public funds; fair publicity of meritorious achievements in both races; condemnation of race propaganda in political campaigns, single standard of social morality for both races and both sexes; protection of Negro womanhood and Negro homes from men of both races; denunciation of lynching for any cause. The findings committee of the Negro women consisted of Mesdames H. M. Wolfe, J. W. Bell, L. B. Fouse, J. A. Bond, T. L. Anderson, A. V. Weston and L. A.
