Bell Phone East 999. VOLUME XI. NUMBER 7. $75 DOUBLE Read E The Negro, His Econo and His Right to An Interview with Dr. Emmett urer of Howard University, Special Assistant to the (Associated Negro Press.) The interview which follows recently appeared in the New York World. It is an upstanding contention for the fundamental rights of the Negro people. Doctor Scott makes it clear just what the Negro is expecting to come out of present efforts to establish triumphant democracy throughout the world. His appeal for fair play is of a character entitling his views to widespread publicity and approval. "An apology from the Colored people would not solve nor simplify this problem, even if I were authorized to make it. And I am not so authorized. We make no claim to perfection; we confess our share of responsibility. But the Negro masses have made it plain to their leaders that no discussion of the present-day race conflicts in America will have their approval which assumes that the blacks are more to blame than the whites." Not the voice of Booker T. Washington, but much of his spirit is heard in that utterance. Emmett J. Scott was private secretary to the great chief at Tuskegee Institute for eighteen years, and spent a total of twenty-two years at the center of Afro-American culture. During the war with Germany, Dr. Scott served as a special assistant to the Secretary of War, a post which he resigned June 30, of this year, to become Secretary Treasurer of Howard University. Germany was beaten, peace had returned. Two weeks later battles were raging in the streets of Washington. No one denies that white mobs began the new Civil War. And no one denies that the blacks retaliated. The shadows of the White House and of Howard University, miles apart, became centers of conflict. The Police Department abdicated. Grinning citizens went out to see the fun and were brought home with the more innocent dead. Federal troops finally recaptured Washington from the enemy, who retreated westward over the Alleghenies and fell upon Chicago. It was then that I found Dr. Scott in nis office at the university and asked him if he thought the white and Colored people of the United States were civilized enough to live together without making their common flag the symbol of chronic massacres. "If our ideals and professions are not moonshine and hypocrisy, then a peaceable solution will certainly be found," Dr. Scott began. "I confess there is much in the record to discourage optimism. During 1917 and 1918 the Colored people of America gave a demonstration of patriotic loyalty, efficiency and courage unexcelled by any other element of our population. Democracy was at stake, yet during those critical years 100 Colored men and women lynched in the United States, more than ever before during a like period. That was discouraging." Then Dr. Scott smiled at a happy recollection. "In the great victory parade in Atlanta an old Colored man was perhaps the proudest marcher in line. He bore aloft a banner attesting that eleven of his sons were serving in the Army of the United States. It must have been a hard blow for him to learn that he had been topped by another old man of his race from Louisiana, who gave thirteen boys to the fighting forces. But this must have hurt him still more." Dr. Scott held up a Georgia newspaper. It contained the story of two young Colored women who, being pursued by two delirious white youths, sought shelter behind the locked doors of a neighbor's home. The white men beat on the door to break it down. An old Negro came out armed with a gun, and ordered the assailants away. The white men attacked him. The old defender of womanhood shot one of the men. A white mob sent the Colored man to a horrible death by lynching. "But even through this dark scene The Kansas City Sun Entered as second-class matter, August Miau, on the post of March 3, 1879.

Scott, Secretary-Treas- ity, and During the War the Secretary of War timentai new moti plies to where we worth of it has been ian connec that it can prosec to enjoy contributi "On the migrants now suff least 4,000 timental motive for doing so. The new motive is economic, and it applies to every part of the country where workmen are scarce and the worth of the black man as a laborer has been demonstrated. Every American community must soon realize that it cannot permit lawless groups to prosecute the Negro if it wishes to enjoy the benefit of his economic contribution. "On the 1918 basis of 1,000,000 immigrants a year, the United States is now suffering from a deficit of at least 4,000,000 workers. And there will be a continuing deficit, for while there is no immigration many foreign residents of the country are returning to Europe. The Colored man has profited from this, and of course he knows it. He would indeed be the mental inferior of other Americans if he did not. I do not believe he plans to take an unjust or improper advantage of the circumstance, but it certainly does not weaken his claim to ordinary justice, which is all he asks of his fellowmen. "There is an interesting economic background to the Washington riots," Dr. Scott continued. "During 1917 and 1918 the Government needed many thousands of additional employees, as you know. Yet in many departments prejudice against the Colored people remained strong and effective enough to bar them from the public service. This produced a curious and unexpected (Continued on Page 8.)

UNTHANK, Chairman in American life, some pure hopeful light shines." Dr. Scotte resumed, "That terrible episode shocked the South. Listen to the Atlanta Constitution, which, in concluding a long editorial denunciation of the offenders, says: "This monstrous affair does not concern Telfair County nor Georgia alone but the American Republic as a whole; and we might as well look the future squarely in the face and be prepared to accept Federal jurisdiction in crimes of this kind if our own State has not the courage to meet the situation and apply the remedy." That editorial was printed on July 25, when Chicago was entering her separate argument for Federal regulation of race wars. "I was born in the South. I have labored there. The masses of the Negro people live there. For many years to come this will be true, and that section should take the lead in establishing definitely friendly relations between the races. The time has come, when there is more than a sen- KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1919. CONDITIONS ARE IDEAL AT OLD CITY HOSPITAL. "I never have any trouble with my internes or employees," Dr. William Tompkins, superintendent of the old city hospital, said yesterday; "I have nine internes, forty nurses and about 140 patients. As far as I know, everything at this hospital is in perfect harmony." A visit to the old City hospital tended to prove Dr. Thompkins's statement. Despite the fact that the building is more than forty years old, and that the floors are wood and the walls painted plaster, not a speck of dust or dirt was visible anywhere. The well-scrubbed wooden floors and steps would be a delight to a critical housewife. They are scrubbed daily, Dr. Thompkins said. No dirt is under the radiators in any part of the building. The basement is as clean as the operating room which is beyond reproach. It is a decided contrast to the new and modern General hospital further up the hill. Everything at the old City hospital is run under a well-planned system. There is no bickering and discontent among the employees. Both the patients and the staff express the highest degree of satisfaction over the management and conditions. The police say they are given twice the service and attention when bringing patients to the old City hospital that they receive at the General hospital. Not only is the Negro hospital the more cleanly of the two, but there is an air of work being well done about the place. Every one is busy and apparently satisfied. There are nearly M. H. as many patients at that hospital as at the General hospital. "We have a hard time getting equipment." Dr. Thompkins said, "but we do the best we can without. We are anxious that the people of Kansas City should pay our hospital a visit and see what we are doing."—From Friday's Journal. MO. CONFERENCE DELEGATES. St. Louis, Oct. 18.—Rev. W. H.

Darkening shades proclaim impending night Haste now, Oh Nymph! O'er other realms preside I love you best-Adieu! Calm Even'tide. In the more than half a century I have lived here, no public gathering which I attended was more replete with gripping, spell-bound interest than the community meeting at Lincoln High School on Sunday, last. The vast audience was overcome with varied emotions, now laughter, now tears, now an uncontrollable outburst of pent-up enthusiasm. Kansas City's richest citizen was present to plead for contributions to a memorial to the brave boys who went over seas and lie buried beneath the willows of Chateau Thierry and the Argonne; but Mr. R A. Long spoke as a commoner. There was no patronizing, no condescending, no sentimentalism. He spoke as an humble patriot to an assembly of patriots as man to man, neighbor to neighbor, friend to friend and hero worshippers. He felt at home and made everybody else who heard him feel at home, and ready to follow his lead. It was a telling speech. No less so was the benediction pronounced by him at the suggestion of his gifted daughter, Mrs. Loula Long Combs. It reminded me of the soulful prayers at the close of his sermons of the great Henry Ward Beecher, each one a sermon in itself. And that masterly address of Nelson C. Crews! He rose to the occasion with the eloquence of a Fredrick Douglass and the burning fire of a Patrick Henry as he told of the ```markdown ``` The erudite and talented Pastor of St. James A. M. E.

He received a continued ovation. And when this gifted orator, addressing Mr. Long, thundered forth, "We Negroes assure you, sir, that we have no time to waste with the rioter, the striker, the dynamiter, the Bolshevists of the white race, as all such peace disturbers are simply in our way; owing our fealty and allegiance to great souls like yourself; for all we want as a race is justice and a square deal," Mr. Long was impelled to spring to his feet and signal to the vast audience to rise and with a wave of handkerchiefs and a shout that made the welkin ring, it proclaimed its emphatic endorsement. Kansas City is justly proud of these two men; of its great humanitarian, and of its equally great orator. Both are richly endowed. If only Mr. Crews could be prevailed upon to ally himself heart and soul with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and give to that organization the benefit of his great talent and untiring energy and courage, what a powerful asset would be added to the local branch of the society in this great center of social and commercial human activities. --- PRICE, 5c.

Money Lost on Operation of Heating Plant In its recent opinion fixing lighting and heating rates in Kansas City, the Missouri Public Service Commission found: "That operating revenue, during the calendar years of 1917 and 1918 were less than the producing expenses alone, during those respective periods." Concerning the Heating Department of the Kansas City Light and Power Company, for those periods, the Commission finds: 1—The heating department failed to make operating expenses by $22,558.84 in 1917; failed during the first eight months of 1918 by $198,186.88; during the last four months of 1918 by $98,507.98, and during the calendar year of 1918 by $296,694.87. The Commission calls attention to the fact that during none of these periods, was the heating revenue sufficient to even meet the fuel expenses alone, and submits the following figures for 1918: Revenue..... $291,982.07 Operating expenses including depreciation..... 592,818.81 Deficit below operating expenses..... 300,836.74 Return surplus and contingencies 7% on $1,437,816..... 100,647.12 Increase in revenue necessary to pay operating expenses including depreciation and 7% on $1,437,816..... 401,483.86 Revenue necessary to pay operating expenses including depreciation and 7% on $1,437,816..... 693,465.93 This shows the losses included in the heating plant of the Light Company for 1918, as shown by the Public Service Commission's own figures.

At the End—Youth If I had created men and women, I should have framed them on a type widely different from that which has actually prevailed—that of the higher mammifers. I should have made men and women, not to resemble the great apes as they do, but on the models of insects which, after a life as caterpillars, change into butterflies, and for the brief final term of their existence have no thought but to love and be lovely. I should have set youth at the end of the human span.—From "The Garden of Epicurus," by Anatole France. The Old Name for Windso The Old Name for Windsor. English royalty has resided at Windsor castle ever since Edward the Confessor built a hunting lodge just at the place where there came a great curve in the gentle river. In his "Child's Guide to London," Mr. A. A. Methley writes that the old name for the place was Windleshora or Windleshores, which may have meant "Windling shore," from the curve of the river at this point. Other say, however, that the word is derived from the Saxon "Windle," a willow tree. To Fill Floor Cracks. A very complete filling for open cracks in floors may be made by thoroughly soaking old newspapers in a paste made of one pound of flour to three quarts of water, or a less quantity in those proportions. Put one tablespoonful of alum in the mixture and stir thoroughly until brought to a boiling heat. Make the final mixture about as thick as putty and apply with a putty knife. It will harden like papier mache. Paseo Shop DRESSMAKING. Hemstitching, Picoting 10c per yd.; Covered Buttons, Men's Silk Shirts Made to Order. Special attention to all out-of-town orders. MRS.

Allen was unpre pared for such a wonderful sermon from such a young man but at {ts conclusion a wave of religious fervor such as is seldom witnessed in this staid and dignified congregation broke over the assemblage and con tinued for several minutes. Prof Herriford facetiously moved that Rey Caston be immediately received in the Methodist Church and Bishop Parks be noti‘ied that Allen Chapel’s pulpit had been FILLED which provoked much merriment and applause. If young Caston continues developing a3 evidenced in lis splendid sermon last Sunday, it will be but a short time until he is rated as not only the foremost preacher of his own denomi- nation but of the race in America, wAMENLIG BORO DAINTINGS.

St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 22.—The new PORO COLLEGE, St. Ferdinand and Pendleton streets, founded by Mrs. Annie M. Malone and dedicated Thanksgiving, 1918, at which 'time editors of nearly every weekly paper in the country and PORO agents throughout the United States attended, was the scene of inspiring ceremonies Sunday, October 19th, when the Mural Tripartite, a handsome painting in the rotunda of the building, was unveiled. heroic figures of Negro womanhood personify Liberty, Music and Art in which the Race has made its most wonderful progress." HANDSOME PAINTING UNVEILED. The audience arose and marched to the Lobby where the Rev. Reverdy D. Ransome, New York City, editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, delivered an able and brilliant address following which the Misses Rowena Slaughter, Mary Hardy, and Artesia Charleston, PORO girls, drew back the curtain and the audience viewed the wonderful painting with awe and jeet for cont behaves in I higher consis W Memphis, home of Bis phis, was the wednesday B. Woods and were happily wedlock. The best and most Memphis, H Mosaic Temp The PORO Building which is a monument to the genius of Mr. and Mrs. Malone, had been newly decorated on the interior by the foremost painters of the Mound City. Special hand paintings were observed in the private apartments of the Malones, public Dining Room, Auditorium, Corridor and Lobby. These artistic decorations make PORO COLLEGE rank amongst the handsomest institutions in America. GIVES RACE EMPLOYMENT. While PORO COLLEGE gives employment to over 250 women of the race, both young and old, yet Mrs. Malone has been unselfish with her finances in having this wonderful painting placed on the wall that it might be an inspiration, encouragement and joy to the many employees and the public. Prior to the unveiling of the painting a program was given in the auditorium at 2:30 p. m. Prof. F. L. Williams, principal of the Summer High School, presented Bishop H. B. Parks, presiding Bishop of the Missouri Conference, who acted as master of Ceremonies. The large audience arose and sang "America," Gerald G. Tyler, Director. A tenor solo was rendered with pleasing effect by Robert Moman. Cary B. Lewis, Chicago, Ill., brought greetings from the PORO Agents of the Windy City. Miss Ruth Minor, one of the PORO girls, sang beautifully, "By the Old Cathedral Door." "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" was sung by the audience. MAKES PROGRESS IN ART. The oration of the afternoon was delivered by the Rev. W. H. Peck, pastor of St. James A. M. E. Church. He said in part, "The PORO Building is one great garden of beauty and refinement. No attempt at the spectacular is made, while richness is everywhere apparent. Yet this is more than surpassed by the subdued color effect which testifies of great refinement. The first panel typifies the Race's beginning as is shown by the scant clothing, incomplete physical development, the crude spear, and the selfish burden, and is well called the Genesis. But his interests increase; they become humanitarian, agricultural and mechanical. Hence this is the Exodus. So much has been accomplished through application and sacrifice that a large panel must be used to typify the height to which the race has climbed and the three HALL FOR RENT.

But as in other lines of sport, it is not always beef and brawn that win, oftimes speed and skill must be considered Lincoln High led by Capt, Chauncey Smith trotted on the field at #:55 P. M. and were cheeret to the cho by the ‘Lincoln rooters, alded by the school band. A few minutes later ‘Gapt. Payne and his stalwart boys from upstate trotted out. They too wers accorded a rousing reception. After a few preliminary plays, the rival Captains tossed up. Capt. Payne of Topeka won the toss and elected to defend the west goal with the sun at his back. Sinith kicked off for Lincoln, Whitney ran the ball back 10 yards before being downed by Tay- lor. After trying to plerce Lincoln's line, Topeka decided to kick. Hick ran the ball back 15 yards and was downed on his own 35 yard line by Vinos, Lincoln then opened up @ series of baffling forward passes with Hicks and Taylor doing their recetv- jag. ‘This netted the old gold and Dine about 20 yards. ‘Topeka’s famous “Yale Shift” didn't work at all as ‘a they were too slow getting started and Page and Singleton would break it up before it got under way, The first quarter ended with Topeka in ‘possession’ of the ball on her own 40 yard line ‘The second quarter found Topeka trying to gain around the ends but there was nothing doing. ‘Finally Payne punted.

But the skilled Colored mechanic whom prejudice excluded from the public service found himself, earning $5 to $8 a day. By a twist of ‘events, he had become the economic ‘superior of many of his white neigh- ‘bors here in the District, “Now it can hardly be said that the Negro was to blame for this entirely natural effect of obvious causes, Yet he has been blamed by many envious persons who would have us believe that the Colored worker has got out of his place, and has become a men- ace becauise employers pay him mors than they used to.” Dr. Scott smiled again, “I have some old fellows work- ing around the university grounds who collect, $3.50 a day from us. They received about $1.25 under the pre- war wage standard.

It is one kind of human nature to strike at your most exposed com- petitor, and the Colored man is fre quently the easiest target. “But such tactics, if permitted to continue, simply undermine our de: mocracy and cannot possible bring @ solution of the problem, Thoughttul teachers, students and employers are coming to see this quite clearly, Side by side with the disgrace of lynching there is growing up in the South a de- termination among the better ele- ment of both races to top this evil hefore it enzulfs the whole nation, So we have here an open letter to white college men of the South signed by members of the faculties of eleven different State universities in the South in which a fine tribute is paid tothe Negro, and all_are reminded that “no people is stirred to higher thingt when habitually referred to in dis- paraging or contemptuous terms, Or- dinary human beings live up to or down to the role assigned them by their neighbors “Beside that fine letter may be plac: ed the ringing denunciation by Gov. Rickett of North Carolina of the cur. rent effort to revive the Ku Klux Klan, in which he assets: “Just now all of us need to be considerate and kind and trustful in our dealings with the Negro; the best and the wisest men in both races are." On the en- couraging side also there is the ex: ample of such Southern employers as the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company which prizes its colored workers so highly that it is catering on a large Scale to the black man’s strongest de- sires by providing fine facilities for the education of his children, and oth- er agencies for his welfare, “No, Tam not despondent over the outlook. ‘The situation is serious but not desperate. All healthy sentiment fn favor of fair play ts growing up on many sides. Wise and courageous leaders of both races are now contend- ing that the first and biggest task of democracy is to keep her own house in order. It fs vain to talk ideals un Jess we practice justice, And in the final triumph of justice I never lose faith.” Dr, Scott stood silent by the window for @ moment, then turned with his face full in the morning light, and summed up his hope and convictions, “To all your questions there is a cheerful answer. If there is a crisis in the race problem It is because the ation has ignored, neglected and push- ‘ed the problem aside. ‘To solve it we must face it and who shall say we lare afraid to face it? | “Too often the whole question ts complicated and well meaning efforts negatived by many persons North and South, who conjure up the spectre of “‘social equality,” a term which, as joften used, is @ misnomer. Every self-respecting Colored man and wo- man conceles the right of every other “individual to decide whom his asso- ‘clates and companions shall be, Nor ‘is the Negro—and 1 think I am rather well acquainted with the main hopes jand aspirations of my race—desirous (of imposing himself upon any one, oF |any purely social group in which he is not welcomed. But that has noth- ing to do with the civic rights and [privileges 10 which every decent man ‘is entitled.

And Since 1915 the Production of the Metal Has Been Decreas- . ing Steadily. The world situation of gold has been the subject of much discussion and speculation, ‘The war has caused the accumulation of gold In state banks and treasuries, and taken It away from private banks and the pub- lie. The holdings of state banks and treasuries have increased since 1913 from about G8 per cent of the total styck to about 85 per cent. ‘This has been compensated for by the issuing of paper money, and in some countries the paper issue has been so far In ex: cess of the gold supply that a serious problem» has resulted, remarks Scl- entific American. In 1914 the United States reported to have had $1,871,611,723 in gold and $759,562,709 In silver, and In 1919 $$8,092,087,699 In gold and $552,085,002 In stiver, an Increase of 65 per cent In eed. The production of gold has been steadily decreasing since 1919, when the highest. point was reached. In that year the world's production of gold was $468,724.918, of which the Uren States produced $101,035,700, South Africa about $188,000,000, and | Australia about $50,000,000. In 1918 the world production was $377,300.00, of wien the United States contributed 268,493,500, South Africa $71,600,000 and Australia $26,700,000, Recently the restriction on gold has “heen removed by the United States, fond a decided movement has taken | the ewbargo on gold, because of the [fear of depleting her gold supply, [which It I necessary to maintain at [all costs, Remedial measures sug- gested bave included raising the bank rate fo check exports and increase Amports of gold. ‘These measures, It Is asserted, would check the production of nonessential commodities and the tendeney toward speculation which a low money rate encourages. Australia has placed the exportation of gold in the hands of a gold pro- ducers’ association, and they are per- mitted to sell their gold for three months and thereby may procure a premlum over the standard price. This move was apparently a relief measure calculated to offset the increasing price of producing gold. ‘There 1s nothing suggestive of a gold embargo in Germany. On the contrary the country has begun. to send gold to the United States to pay for foodstuffs and raw material, which latter she 1s sadly In need of Ger- many has cleverly maneuvered her gold Tescurces, which France expected would become part of the Indemnity.
