MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRE88 LA GRANDE OREGON, MONDAY, JANUARY 5. 1925. MEMBEK ASSOCIATED PRBSB NUMBER 75 Daily Letter (By HARRY B. HUNT) WASHINGTON (NBA Special) A racial question in the national cupUal. which promises to grow to sizable proportions, has de veloped around a proposal for a bathing bcuch for the city's col ored population on the Tidal Ba sin opposite the Lincoln Memorial. To understand just what this moans, It is necessary first to know that approximately ono- third, or more than 160,000 of Washington's Inhabitants are col ored. ... It is necessary ulso to under stand that the point ut which tt is proposed to build this beach Is immediately opposite the Potomac Park golf course and along the Potomac Park boulevard, where the city's elite prefer to drive on hot days to get tho comparatively cool breezes tl.at waft across the water from the Virginia shore. The thought of a bathing beach at this point, which would be" fre quented by thousands of the city's poorer folks of color, is enough to give a lot of capital 'fashionables apoplexy. It mustn't happen, they say. Awful! Dreadful! What is our capital -coming to, anyway? Voicing the viewpoint Mrs. John 1). Sherman, president of the Cieneral Federation of Women's Clubs, has written Secretary of War Weeks, under whose jurisdic tion this park ."Improvement" would soino, demanding that lie tuko a "firm stand" against the proposal. Mrs. Sherman foresees grave in ternational difficulties should the beach bo developed at this point, as in doing so It would be neces sary to cut down or -remove a number of tho cherry trees pre sented to tho Capital 20-odd years ago by the Mikado of Japan. "It would come with very bad grace on the parfc- of the govern ment of tho United Htates." she says, 4to cut down any of the wonderful trees given us by Japan." Furthermore "Tho drive around 'the Tidal basin Is one of the most famous In the world. You can readily see what a collection of parked automobiles would do there,- particularly f;n.S. Balvrdays and Sundays. There would sure ly bo -trouble." f( 11 The problem of a bathing beach for the city's colored-''third ' has' been complicated Ij? the fact that' representatives of -the'' hegr -"population have been resolute 'In re-' fusing to consider a beach tn-Uny1 location except along the-Speed ' , i , . i ' ;o-,i.- (Continued ort Pago Bl.)
