CONGRESS SHOULD STOP LYNCHING, SAYS HARDING IN MESSAGE
(Special to the Leader.)
Washington, D. C., April 14.--In refernce to lynching in the United States, President Harding in his first message to the new Congress which convened here Tuesday, said the following:
"Congress ought to wipe the stain of barbaric lynching from the banners of a free and orderly representative democracy. We face the fact that the many millions of people of African descent are numbered among our population, and that in a number of states they constitute a very large proportion of the total population.
It is unnecessary to recount the difficulties incident to this condition, nor to emphasize the fact that it is a condition which cannot be removed. There has been suggestion, however, that some of its difficulties might be ameliorated by a humane and enlightened consideration of it, a study of its many aspects, and an effort to formulate, if not a policy, at least a national attitude of mind calculated to bring about the most satisfactory possible adjustment of relations between the races, and of each race to the national life. One proposal is the creation of a commission embracing representatives of both races, to study and report on the entire subject. The proposal has real merit. I am convinced that in mutual tolerance, understanding, charity, recognition of the interdependence of the races, and the [maintenance of?] the rights of citizenship lies the road to righteous adjustment.
