DUKIN(i the past week scores of newspapers in this country
have printed editorials comment in;,' upon tlic facl that
Mrs. Hoover invited the wife of negro eonressman to a White
House tea.
This action was generally condemned hy Southern news
papers and upheld or " explained " hy newspapers in the North.
The situation demons! rates that, as far as the negro is concerned,
racial feeling north and south of the M'ason and Dixon Jino lias
not changed very much since the Civil war.
. Texas and Kloridu stale legislatures adopted strong resolu
tions condemning Mrs. Hoover. A, Virginia congressman is
sued a "solemn warning,'.' while .Senator Blease of South Caro
lina staged one of his characteristic. eruptions, about a "chal
lenge to white supremacy."
.: finally Arthur Brisbane took his Corona in hand and pro
ceeded to demonstrate that he really can be "the greatest cdi
torinl writer iu tlic country" when he takes the. notion. This
is what lie wrote i . '
Inviting all the wives of congressmen, as custom orders. Mrs.
Hoover Invited, among others, the negro wife of a negro congress-
; until, mrs. in i-rieni, iu nuvu iim in ine valine nouse .

of teaB at tho While lloune,. which Is public properly for "tho

A'eed any more he said? Observe thu unity, coherence ajul.
above all, the brevity. In less than 1H words Mr. Brisbane
srtid more and said it more effectively, than any statesman, poli
tician or1 editorial writer in the country, who collectively .ex
hausted the dictionary unabridged.
' Wc don't always ngree with Brisbane, in fact on principle
we frequently disagree with bine. But scarcely a week passes
that wo don't take our hat off to him, as the undisputed master
of them all. . ,
He ran say more in a paragraph than most of his com
petitors can say 'ill a patfe. And right or wfung, he is always
readable.
As a result when he is right, as in this ease,' editors on
the other side of the fence might as well turn their verbal
artillery in some other direct ion. r'or the final word on the
subject lias been written.
