Payict Appropriation Dill Carrying $494,000,000 — President Harding's Memorial Day Utterance—Rail-

way Wage Reduction Announced —More Fighting in Silesia. By EDWARD W. PICKARD.

Another of those sudden and terrible race eonflicts which make all decent Americans blush with shame occurred lust week, tills time in Tuisa. Okla. Before the state troops that were called to assist the police had restored order at least ihlrty persons hud been killed, hundreds had been wounded and the negro quarter of the city was in ashes. More than 5,000 negroes were rendered honnless and the property damage was es-tlinnt-d to t>e In excess of a million ]

and a half dollars.

As so often is the case, the riots were due to an attack on a white girl by u negro. The offender was arrested and then someone started the rumor that he was to be lynched. . Sev- ' era! hundred armed blacks gathered | about the courthouse and Jail, and one 1 of them was killed hy a police officer. | That started the fighting, and within 1 it few hours the city had In-come an ; armed camp. Both whites and blacks [ looted the stores for guns, and the j negroes entrenched themselves In j I their quarter. An army of whites i So-m begun the Invasion of that region ; ami. driving back the blacks, set fire to the buildings as they advanced. | Men. women and children were shot ■ down mercilessly as they fled from ■ their huning homes. Three local I units of the Oklahoma National Guard j were ordered out hy '.he governor, and i they, with the help of the police and I members of the American Legion, at lust sin -.'.-.led In controlling the si' nation. They wen* able to protect tn.- business and railroad districts : from further destruction, hut tin* j "black belt" wa« a smoking ruin. Tie- same old cries of "Shame'" 1 will lie heord. and Tulsa will he thor- | oughly s. ..bled for this shocking iiffiur: but the same causes will bring atu-.n the «ame re suit a ever and again. altieiM m.ywhere In the United S'Btes. him! tb. wisest social economists do not know when* the remedy lies.

Memorial day not only was crl« bmted fittingly nil over the United State*, but in England and France ns well, where ninny of our dead warriora still He. In this country, of course, the moat notable observance of the day was In the national cemetery at Arlington, where the President delivered the address. Mr. Harding tisik advantage of the occasion to declare (hat America must and will do her full part In helping to stabilize the •world, to restrain ambition for empire and to prevent the disaster to civilization that would come from a denial of the equality of sovereign states or persons. The United Stall's, he assert id, will neither pursue a policy of Isolation nor surrender any of Its liidopomlenee of action, hilt will stand ready to accept lendershlp in the restoration of nonmilcy in the

world.

In a Memorial day address In n Chicago •'iihnrh, 'former Senator Jnnies Hatiillton Lewis predicted u | “nr with Japan In which America will [ stand alone. "Not one country In ! Europe is truly the friend of the I United States." he mild. “The time ! Is coming when we Khali have to pro- | teot nurse!res ngnltist an invasion of ! the Asiatics." England. France, and | Italy, he said, will lie appealed to by : Japan to force the Unite-! Slates to : grant the Japanese Hu* same privl- ! leges ns they enjoy In Europe. The federal railway labor board has announced the wage reduction that goes Into effect on July 1. when the mulonal agrccui-nis an- abrogated. • The average wage cal Is to la* 12 per cent and this eventually will redm-e the pay rolls of the .(H roads affected by $400,000.(100 „ year. The Imnnl In its decision sets up new uniform wage scales for all groups of i-mploy-i .-es. and these will Inter apply to every I road In the country. The abrogation i of the national agreements, It Is he- : IVved. may save the roads an nddi- | thmal $300,000,000 yearly, lu labor •Teles It hud been feared a greater j wage reduction would be ordered by i the board; hence It Is predicted the action may arouse little o|ien opposition- The chiefs of the railway

unions reserved comment.

The day after the hoard s ruling was made public President Harding I surprised the interstate eowmerre commission by ■•ailing Ot It" office for j n conference on freight .-ate n-dne- I thm, which he deems of vital lnip»r- | lance In the restoration of business, j | He made clear his desire In this line.
