Wood sold by load or basket AT THE CHURCHES City Filled With Visitors FRIDAY, FEB. 13, 1920. Characterizing the constitution under which the proposed merger of M. E. Church South would operate as unfair and prejudicial to the interests of the colored contingent, Rev. Des. M. J. Naylor and Ernest Lovin would union as proposed by the joint commission at Louisville, before the weekly session of the white Methodist ministers of the city at Eustaw M. E. Church Monday. They have been invited to present the views of the colored membership regarding their status under the proposed unification. Rev. A. J. Might and W. C. Johnson, with M. E. Church's approval for the stand taken by the two ministers. Rev. Dr. West, white, told the gathering that the space, but not the color, should be argued against. Rev. J. E. Hesse and oth- white ministers asked questions to clear up some of the points made by the principal speakers. Dr. Leon called the proposed constitution a quietly constructed document, with traditional prejudices against the race. "It would be far better for world-wide Christianity to be said," he added, of the Methodist Episcopal church, if we have no unification, than one with race prejudice, sectional discrimination and unwarranted assumption of race superiority, during the present theoretical status of equality that the colored membership enjoys in the M. E. Church with the tentative plans proposed for the Negro by the joint convention on united race on said; "There is no constitutional barrier in the Methodist Episcopal Church to the employment of any of the high priests of the church, and to any may aspire to them with perfect ease, freedom and equality. In the proposed constitution the very opposite is the case. It proposes by constitution a consecrated black man. It proposes to delimit to a proscribed area and thus establish on the earth of Jesus Christ what the Supreme Court of the United States has declared to be unconstitutional, namely, segregation. It asserted that the organic law of the land provided for democracy and discriminated no race, but that the constitution of the proposed union was conceived and ordered in precisely the oppressive He predicted a rockier road for the proposed plan of unification than the Peace envoy and the Nebraska senate, saying that only a two-thirds vote was necessary for ratification, while two-thirds of the senate, as well as two-thirds of the ministers to annual and lay conferences, would be necessary for the two Methodists to become one of the largest groups in the Nebraska state. The efforts of the colored membership to wield more influence and to have a general superintendent, and then dissected the racial conflict, should the proposed unification. A reception at St. Monica's A reception to all those who took part in the recent rally at St. Monica's Catholic Church, Hill Street, Nebraska, on Friday evening. Rev. J. Henry Doryse is the priest in charge. Interested in the great campaign Betted Church is making to pay off its mortgage, a group of white men assigned by Dr. John M. T. Friar, a professor of finance at Brown University this week and asked him if he had paid off the mortgage, surprised to get the reply that the $22,000 mortgage was in the hands of the testees of the church. Dr. Friar would attend the mortgage learning Friday night, and bring their check just the same. Reverend Father McCurtrity, White said to be opposed to Colored Prices—Tells Congregation Devil is in them. Rev. Jessica who, as superior to the Josephite Order, is said to have formulated the policy by which colored candidates for the priesthood are virtually excused from St. Joseph's Seminary. Rev. James J. Noily, the priest's Catholic Church, succeeding the late Rev. James J. Noily. An organization of the parish, representing more than half of the membership of the parish, is said to have provided for Rev. James J. Noily in charge of St. Monica's Church. In his initial sermon last Sunday morning, Father McCarthy billed the element in the church that the Jessephite Order is vital conditions against colored Catholics, saying that the Devil was among them and it was necessary to keep on them. William's initial conditions, written in the January Crisis, said that he had been informed that the Jessephite Society required $250 a year for priesthood, white white men were charged nothing. He said that, how ever, when a friend of his offered pay the money that Father McCarthy refused to admit him. He later resigned as superior, giving ill health his reason. Father McCarthy is well known to them. St. Francis Xavier Church, having been junior there while studying for the priesthood, Father Pastorelli present superior of the Jessephite Order is well known to them so that those who criticise conditions in the church may be curbed. St. Peter Claver's Church is probably the largest colored parish in To a representative of the AFRO AMERICAN a member said "we are tired of supporting broken down hacks and Negro haters." Acting upon a resolution introduced by Rev. J. H. Taylor, the postons of the Baptist Church in the state of Union Baptist Church last Monday condemned the Education-Bill now before the Senate and urged the governor to equal salaries for equal work for all Maryland teachers.

LEXINGTON KENTUCKY It cost the lives of five members of a mob and the wounding of 25 others in order to save the life of William Lockett, in Lexington, Kentucky, this week. Lockett is colored, the five persons killed and the twenty-five injured are all white. There will be some, who will ask the question, was the game worth the candle; was the life of one colored man, probably a murderer, worth the life of five, in other things than this, respectable white men, and the serious injury of twenty-five others. the lives of five members of a mong of 25 others in order to save Lockett, in Lexington, Kentucky, it is colored, the five persons kill five injured are all white.

All Governors aor Morrow, nor have we yet had at the mob leaders will be found. In fact, we have the statement General- that no action against the mob is contemplated. The is the biggest argument yet for re against mobs and mob law. We have no hesitation in saying that Lockett's life as an individual is worth as much as that of any other individual—that much and no more. But the life of Lockett, the citizen, as well as the prisoner, guaranteed the protection of the law, and the right of a peaceable trial by judge or by a jury of his peers, was worth any price that the elements of disorder wanted to pay for it. Here a principle was at stake. The principle that the Union is one and indissoluble cost a million lives in the Civil War. The principle that a nation must keep its word, that its treaties are not a scrap of paper, cost ten million lives in the recent World's War. The principle that the laws of the United States and its Constitution are not a scrap of paper was the principle that was settled at Lexington. The cost in life, compared with the great cost of the Civil and World's War was inhiltsimal. The thanks of the nation go out to Governor Morrow, who so soon after taking the oath to uphold the constitution of the United States and of Kentucky, first made a personal appeal to the mob to let the law take its course. At the same time he did not fail to remind the sheriff and the troops called to his aid, that he expected them to GO THE LIMIT IN PRESERVING ORDER. This firm stand of the Kentucky Governor has in it a lesson for the entire country. It shows conclusively that any State executive who wants to, can prevent lynching and mob rule, and it makes. It plain that the final responsibility in these cases tests upon him. However, there is nothing in the whole incident to prove that anti-mob legislation by the Federal Congress is unnecessary. All Governors are not like Governor Morrow, nor have we yet had word from him that the mob leaders will be found out and punished. In fact, we have the statement from the Attorney-General that no action against the members of the mob is contemplated. The Lexington incident is the biggest argument yet for Federal procedure against mobs and mob law. INTERRACIAL CONGRESS ing in morning, afternoon and even in Thursday and Friday of this week upon the part of the white arms of the city to come together and discuss the things that keep people from getting along smoothly that both sides will get the pre-colored and white speaker will do of justice in the courts, opportunity show both races can help better education of "colored" people, can help the problem, and to places in ordinary language, "why can we not get along together." Meeting in morning, afternoon and evening session, on Thursday and Friday of this week, effort is made upon the part of the white and colored ministers of the city to come together in joint session and discuss the things that keep colored and white people from getting along smoothly. In order that both sides will get the proper hearing, a colored and white speaker will discuss the question of justice in the courts, opportunity in industry, how both races can help better health conditions, education of "colored" people, how the churches can help the problem, and to put one of the topics in ordinary language, "why colored and white people do not get along together." Thotful people will welcome the Conference and watch its deliberations with interest. Whatever the result, here is the evidence that members of both races admit that conditions can be bettered, and are courageous enough to face criticism in their respective groups, by conducting a joint investigation. The AFRO-AMERICAN commends the effort. It hopes that the platform of the Conference will be big enough and broad enough for Americans whether black or white to stand upon—a platform that will state in effect: "We stand for 100 per cent Americanism, which means that we ask for our black neighbor every political, legal and economic right that we expect for ourselves." We do not desire more, we will not be satisfied with less. When the Court of Appeals passed on the right of the railroads to provide separate cars for colored and white passengers in travelling within the State, it declared: "ACCOMODATIONS FOR PASSENGERS, WHITE AND COLORED, MAY BE SEPARATE, BUT THBY MUST BE EQUAL." If the courts took this stand on the question of travelling accommodations, it is reasonable to suspect that if the proposed State Administration Bill, carrying high salaries for white teachers and low salaries for colored teachers, were submitted to them, the same courts would declare: "SCHOOL ACCOMODATIONS FOR PUPILS, WHITE AND COLORED MAY BE SEPARATE, BUT MUST BE EQUAL." This was the argument of a delegation representing the Maryland Association for Social Service because the Education Committee of the Senate at Annapolis, on last Thursday. Not only is this sound reasoning, but it is sound legal argument. The Fourteenth Amendment, still in force, states that the privileges of citizens shall not be abridged on account of race, color or previous condition. A bill that discriminates in the salaries to be paid public school teachers, is therefore, not only unfair that it robs colored people of their just proportion of taxes; but illegal in that violates the Fourteenth Amendment. For a quarter of a century, certainly for the twenty years that Mr. Bates Stephens, white, has been head of the State schools, this discrimination, has gone unchallenged. It would go on unchallenged today, were it not that the parents of the State have awakened to the consciousness that they are being robbed, that they and their children are suffering under the vicious system of half education, and that the time for striking off the skilches of ignorance is NOW, not two years from now. In bringing these facts to the attention of the Legislature, the Maryland Association has performed a public service. If the Legislature has discriminated against colored children in the past without knowing it, the opportunity is now before it, not to rectify the mistake of a quarter-century, that cannot be done, but to see that hence forth its duty will be done by all the children, black and white alike. Provident Hospital will receive $2,000 from the tate in 1921, and the same amount in 1922, according to Governor Ritchie's budget, sent to the Legislature. Wednesday. Victory-Hospital should ask for not less than $50,000. A FREDERICK DOUGLASS Just what day in February Frederick Douglass was born is not known. Douglass did not know himself. He saw the light of day on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, in Tuckahoe, near Euston, Talbot County, sometime in February, one hundred and three years ago. Not only was he a Marylander, but Baltimore also claimed him, as a part of his boyhood was spent on South Carolina Street, below Eastern avenue, at the home of a white slave owner. "Measure me not by the heights I have attained, but by the depths from which I came," were the words of Douglass referring to his own career, and contemporaries said of him that in his life from slavery to the post of Minister of Hayti he showed greater qualities of manhood than Abraham Lincoln, who born in a cabin, became the President of the United States. In more ways than one the greatness of the foremost Maryland stone forth in his life. As editor of the North Star, he became the most powerful force in the field of journalism, and did more than his newspaper to spread the doctrines of the abolitions than by any of his other efforts. Contributors were attracted to his staff from further America and Europe, and in circulation the Star was away ahead of many of the large white papers of the day. White bounders came to mass meetings held by Douglass for the purpose of breaking them up by beckling, and he answered them all, "each not according to his folly." Others came with proofs that the Negro was half-monkey and therefore not a human being, and he made monkeys of them by holding them in the spell of his eloquence for hours at a time. Of all the great colored men, who in other days held in their hands the leadership of the colored millions, none of them, were they able to return to earth today, would find himself so much at home in the United States as Frederick Douglass. Now, as half a century ago, Negroes would respond to his leadership. He stood for the right to vote and to hold office, and ridiculed the Southerner who handed the black man the Bible, when he asked for the ballot. He was opposed to segregation and to the Jim Crow car, and many times, he was ejected from the railway coach, resisting and carrying the seat along with him. He hated the pussyfooter, the compromiser he called him, who "was in league with the devil," and he preached economy and thrift. to his own people when he said "the race that cannot save its earnings, which spends all it makes, and goes into debt when it is sleek, can never rise in the scale of civilization, no matter under what laws it may chance to be." With it all, Frederick Douglass neither forgave nor forget the handicaps under which white America started the darker brother. He declared if a school house were placed on every hill and a church in every valley, whites would never be able to atone for the awful sin of holding human beings for 350 years in slavery and then settling them free without an age of land or a dollar in currency. THE MEETINGS OF THE BISHOPS It is a noteworthy event for Baltimore, that it is entertaining "within its gates the bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church and hundreds who have been attracted here by their sessions. Both denominations are more than a century old, and their beginning was a protest against discrimination that existed against the colored people in the early days of the republic. Baltimore was one of the first fields where the African Methodists worked and Bethel Church, where the bishops of that denomination are now meeting, vies with Bethel Church, Philadelphia, in age and service. The local church has always stood as a source of pride for the denomination. It was in 1852, when the late Bishop Daniel A. Payne built for it the finest home of any colored church in America. It is today, when debt-free and handsomely beautified, it stands a church worth making a pilgrimage of miles to see. The Zion bishops are also meeting in the edifice of an historic congregation—one which is flourishing despite many vicissitudes. If Richard Allen, founder of the A. M. E. Church, and James Varlick, who started the A. M. E. Zion Church, were on earth today they would behold their work grown to immense proportions, and one of the big factors in the country in contributing to face initiative and race consciousness. They would hold their small band of followers grown into hundreds of thousands, many millions invested in church and school property and strong men and women directing the work. The contributions that the distinctively Negro bodies of Methodism have made to race progress cannot be measured, and the AFRO-AMERICAN-takes pleasure in welcoming to Baltimore such powerful agencies working for spiritual, moral and social uplift. THE AFRO-AMERICAN Missionaries Are Welcome In Africa African Native Gave Wrong Sentence To AFRO- AMERICAN I regret to read the wrong statement given by The Afro-American by S. Okagao Logomah, native of Sierra-Leone, West Africa, that American Missionaries and preachers are not wanted in Africa. They are to bear in mind that the kings and chiefs in Africa have never sent any native into the United States to make such statement or answer against the denominations. First, that this Mr. Logomah is not a Christian and told me himself in Baltimore to believe in Christianity; secondly, that he was educated in Lagos, Nigeria, West Africa by the late Dr. Mojol Agnani in a missionary school to this country three years ago to seek for something that will help him to improve his condition; but has never attended any school.

Dean Pickens Says Southern Hotel Incident Had Nothing To Do With His Resignation From Morgan College. Friday evening. I notice and some people have referred to my little letter controversy with Solicitor Muhammad in connection with my resignation. From the letter to Morgan College, and should be corrected, the Mariam matter was entirely personal letter-writing and had nothing to do with Morgan College students and nothing to do with that matter. My only reason for leaving Morgan College was in order to take my what regard as better opportunity for outgoing colored people in the United States. Yours truly, WOL. PICKENS, Associated Field Secretary. Westminster Teacher Answers Dr. Pickens But Clearly Misunderstands this Letter. There Is No Stronger Advocate of Equal Summaries For Equal Work Tran Dr. Pickens. After reading the letter that you and me inscribed in the Baltimore American of Pennsylvania, I claim it is the necessary Maryland to certify you a letter. Now, Mr. Dickens, as you feel yourself a representative of the educated classes of our race, I feel that you have greatly insisted the corn of Maryland to be printed by sending to print a letter from one of the poorest types of teachers in Maryland or I should say in Maryland. I am judging by this the constation and poor spelling of the word. Remember Mr. Dickens you are placing this letter as the type of work of more than five hundred teachers of the State of Maryland, your course to do, while you are giving the teachers of Maryland a just deal. It is true as Mr. Hofflingh has said that the State of Maryland hires its many or more incompetent Colonels and just why? It is because the State may be a mage, wager, instead of a living salary. Then too, there are some incompetent wagers but they set the same recompense for them as the teachers do for their competence. Your letter in the paper may have impressed your readers that the State of Maryland does employ incompetent teachers to live salary or that the Colored Teachers are incompetent and should not demand an equal salary. Yours truly. (Miss) Barbara G. Loozy 2 Union St. Westminster, Md. Comments: Criticism of Dr. Dickens As Answer Correct. Mr. W. McKenzie. The reason that Dean Pickens gave as an answer to Mr. Hullington's criticism in relation to poorly trained teachers not be otherwise because it is correct. The State Board in trying to get out of doing what is right and just by the colored people of Maryland and Kentucky, he said, is attending of school children in this instance, there is a reason more or less lessiant, for the rural children being the State Board of Education ought to make some of the harm and cow sheil which they term schools for their children more attentive and mindful and to be improved. If the child is to be instructed by the school, the school and school surroundings must certainly be attractive, which improvements Then again, if the State Board, Mr. Dullington, at all will owe the compulsion to the State Board, colored as: for white the rural attendance would be improved, but the boy THE FORUM not the State Board can do so far as regular every day school attending is concerned, and so far as getting the children to delight in going to school is to take that share of colored school improvements that they use for the white schools and improve the colored schools.

OLD TIMER DISCUSSES TEACHERS' SALARIES The reporter spared Old Timer at night and went on morning looking at the bishops over. "I missed you last week," said the world, "kids you sick." secret service. "I had an idea that I wus gloh to get," I said. "and stayed indoors," replied O. T. I "spent my time in things about the church, in things about the church, in what we name drinking in lemonade, mixed with a little lime oil, so had time to reflect. I looked up reports for my search, and I found the report for so much research" the reporter asked. "Boy I was? looking over them teachers salaries to see how low the cost of teaching is, creating us cultured tools. I read in your paper where that State Superintendent Stephens was among those who wanted to give cultured teachers half as much time." "Well, he says that's all they are worth," broke in the conversation with kind of talk, snapped Old Timer. "If the State wants teachers or 'cops,' the right kind of salaries and you will see some folks applying for jobs who are better prepared to make me tired, when you try to excuse the white man trying to keep down. You even heck me out. You're about to give up your light for equal salaries when someone says, 'Governor, you need to keep your teacher ten dollars a month more. Suppose some of the counties have a shortage of months. You better keep up your fighting. Equal salaries we want. Well, I guess you're right," admitted "I know I am, and you needn't talk to me any more if you don't think," said O. T. Fact is, I can make more money than I can, and as old as I am, and I don't have to get no certificate to go to work either. "The State Board says we ought to wait until next Legislature" ven- "Nex" Legislature he dured. Two years from now I'll be dead and a lot of teachers will be in the poor house. We will go to the poor house to keep you from getting something, he axes you to wait a while—It'll be just as hard now. He'll be more careful Old Timer as he moved off and got lost in the crowd. Year Book Out. The Negro Year Book, compiled by Monroe Work, director of the Department of Research in Tennessee Institute, has made its appearance in fifth annual edition, on the newsstands. The book is a full five hundred pages, and is the Negro race offering a full fund of information that stamps it as a standard authority. The Greatest Marylander Frederick Douglass FROM WILLIAM H. DAWLEY, J.C. (by an oppressed Negro slave, Frederick Douglass, arose to be the most powerful abolitionist in America. As a lecturer, speaker and editor he won international fame. His public offices include, pres- ident Freedman's Bank, Marshall of District of Columbia, recorder of deeds, 1881 and minister to Hayt, 1886. William Willis Brown in "The Black Man," affirms that "the career of Douglass is more widely known that any other living colored man except Alexander Dumas." Hurry Beecher Stow in "Men of Our Times," says, "Frederick Douglass had as far to climb to get to the spot where the poorest white boy is born as the president boy has to climb to the President of the Nation, and take rank with kings and judges of the earth." Here are some quotations from his "Music is feeling that you hear." "Every dollar that you lay up represents one day's independence, one day of rest and security in the future," which cannot save its earnings, which spends all its makes and goes into debt when it is sick, can never rise in the scale of civilization, no matter under what laws it may chance to be. Social equality does not necessarily equal civil equality. "No power beneath the sky can make an ignorant people prosperous or a fictitious people happy." "The fact that we have wrongs wrongs which would be destroyed any other race, and that we have increased in numbers and in public consideration ought to strengthen our faith in ourselves and our future." "People who seek for themselves or for the world without inspiration of native land, of a fixed home, of a familiar neighborhood, and of common associations," of success are universal and unchangeable." "Our men should be gentlemen and our women ladies and we can preserve the mind and manners." "Opportunity is important, but exertion is indispensable," we must accept the acute case. We must耐旱. "Mer may cheat their neighbors and may cheat themselves, but they cannot cheat nature." She may pay only the wages that one earns. A.M.E. Ministers Meet. "The Significance of Baptism" was the subject of an essay by E. Ministers at the weekly meeting, last Monday, Rev. David S. Sincee, of Philadelphia and Rev. J. H. Martin of the city, who visited visitors. The Education Committee was authorized to take whatever steps necessary in keeping up the fight against the disease in teachers in the county schools. THE STATUE OF THE MASTER OF THE WORLD Before Essex County Courthouse, Newark, N. J. stands this lifelike statue of Abe Lincoln. It is a famous playground and the colored boy is telling the girl the story of the Great Emancipator. Authorities Undecided Whether To Give Colored High A New Building Or Turn Over The Present Western Female High School. After fifteen years of occupancy of the building located at Dolphin street and across avenue, which has been recently imaged to its needs, the Colored High School faces the prospects of a new building. The School Board for a city loan of $5,55,550 filled with Mayor Browning and the Board of Estimates last week, one of the items called for $1,000,000 for a new high school. After the building is for the Colored High School, it is understood that the appropriation is either for this purpose or for the Western High School (white) whose building occupies the block between Tayette and McCullough street and will then be turned over to Colored High School. The fact that the announcement of the purpose of this item is taken as a sign that the Board is defended does not mean that it does not be done in the case. A large part of the parents and teachers themselves would of course prefer a new building, erected to safe the needs of girls and boys, but however they admit that another spot could hardly be found so conveniently situated as the present Western High School, nor could as durable a building be constructed for them, although they may available. The Western building was built for girls, and perhaps $100,000 must be expended to remodel it to suit the needs of the Colleges. The prospective loan calls for the expenditure of $100,000 on elementary schools as follows: School 106, Hill street near Sharp additions; School 108, Caroline and Bank Streets, renovated and fitted as vocational school $30,000. School 109, Fremont and King Street, to abandon and procure bed and bathing near 110 Wuestech School 112, Calhoun and Laurens Street, cost $225,000—appropriation $170,000 additional amount $150,000. School 113, Federal and Carter Streets, lot and addition $30,000. School 115, Merryman's Lane, lot and addition $100,000. School 115, Druid Hill avenue near Biddle, lot and building to replace 107 and 116 $300,000. School 118 Branch, Edmondson and Calverton, to be renovated $100,000. School 118, M. Olivet Lane, lot and same building $15,000. CANNOT NEGLECT Rev. Baile Elhitt Presches Telling Sermon at 300 Amuveray Citizens cannot afford to neglect their public duties and citizens who are silent while great wrongs are perpetrated "upon the community by politicians and graffiters are just unally commit the sin, according to Rev. Debo Elliott, who spoke to a large audience at Sharon Baptist Church last Sunday on "Temple Boulders." His famous name, said Rev. Elliott, "rests on the magnificent temple that he built, but not a stick or stone of it remains. Character is the temple that the Christian body today, more and more remembered than any structure built by the hands of humans." The occasion marked the anniversary of the death of Rev. Mc Alexander in 1882 with nine members. Would Not Hear Sunday On Monday Norfolk, Va. Feb. 9—Just as colored ministers in Baltimore turned to the Committee to hear Billy Sunday at the Tabernacle at a special meeting for colored people only. Norfolk ministers by almost unanimous vote declared against a Jim Crow service. Colored ministers in the Tabernacle stood for a "whosever will" and not a "special gospel." New School For Rockville Rockville, Feb. 12—A new school for colored ministers here destroyed by fire will be built out of the proposed $10,000 bond issue, authority for which is to be asked from the legislature. May Acquire Church New York, Feb. 12—The property of the church of the Puritans, Presbyterian Church, Lenox avenues, may be acquired by a colored congregation, the white congregation, the decided to consult with PRACTICALLY SLAVES IN SOUTH AFRICA. Many people were under the inversion that the interest and rights of the natives would secure some relegation to slavery. Afrika was a grunt country. Afrika had the recourse at Southampton, when four members of the African native delegation met and allowed to confute those in the Falmurburg Castle because: African officers and soldiers threatened to attack them. The authorities allowed them to travel slowly than the colonists just as was usual in the colonies. In proof of this, Ser. 1, Thiague, author, lecturer and journalist, a man who is a former postwar representative, Mr. Thiague, who is editor of the People's Freed (Minholey), is chairman of the native press of this country. He is the proudest the first black lecturer to visit this country. Mr. Thiague said it was a crime to employ a native at skilled labor, and they require a special mental labor, for which they received smiling 6 pence (about 17-1 7-cent) per day, and they require a special education, they must have a pass to leave by the front door and another to leave the house. They must pass to visit his brother, who at certain street in Kelvinside, and on some ground found that the brother was two years old, and he did not give another pass. If he excuses the units of the pass, he would be fine, and an alternative of a month's imprisonment. "Yes there is the official Labor party of Colonel Cresswell, but no laborer can join the party, and all the laborer will be skilled artisans and supervisors, who do little or no work, but sit and smoke their pipes while watching the native women." "What is the attitude of the trade unions to the natives?" "These do nothing. No colored man can become a member of a trade union, because that would entitle him to do skilled work, which is the precondition of the white man." "Is there no Socialist movement to help you?" "There is the International Socialist League, with which Mr. Andrews and I have been working, and it is not in sympathy with the exclusive character of the Labor party, Mr. Andrews," he said. "The general election because of his important attitude to the colored people." The league been able to do anything, he added, "No; they are in a hopeless unfit state." "No; they are in a hopeless minority." "What about the Church?" "British missionaries have protested against the treatment of the natives for the past nine years until they got sick and tired of probating. The Dutch Reformed Church got a bill through Parliament in 1911 under which no colored person can claim rights in that church outside of Cape Colony."
