COLORFUL AMERICAN MUST CIVEN FULL RIGHTS AS CITIZEN Colonel Theo Roosevelt Declares That the holding of Such Civil Rights Portends Disaster. NO HALF-AMERICAN STATUS Country Cannot Endure Unless All American Citizens Are accorded Full Rights and Equal Opportunities. Chicago.—Demanding for colored Americans full civic rights and equal opportunities with all other citizens. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt addressed a crowded and enthusiastic mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which closed its 17th annual conference here. "I believe that the work the N. A. A. C. P. is doing is thoroughly patriotic and constructive," said Colonel Roosevelt. "It is American in the proper sense of the wordd. "The United States is a country wherein all citizens are supposed to have an equal share in the government. We are, according to the principles on which this nation was founded, equal partners in its governmental affairs. Any man or group of men who attempt to deny full civic rights to any citizen on account of race, creed or color is committing a thoroughly un-American act, one that is subversive of the ideals of the country. "Your organization, as I see it, is striving to obtain full constitutional rights for colored Americans and by opening opportunities to them to help them build themselves into better and finer citizens. All colored Americans must have full governmental rights. There must be no distinctions made by law either covertly or openly against any of our citizens. In certain states by subterfuges as to registration or simply by force, colored citizens are denied the vote. Any state which prevents its colored citizens from exercising their privilege of the franchise simply because they are colored, is subverting the constitution of the United States. Every real American should demand that this evil be set right and do his level best to see that his demands receive proper attention. "Equally important with governmental rights are civic opportunities. Colored Americans must be given the opportunity to get the proper edu- (Continued on Page Four.) --- THE MONITOR N. A. A. C. P. ENDS SUCCESSFUL ANNUAL MEET IN CHICAGO Chicago — With the presentation June 29 before a crowded and enthusiastic gathering in Wendell Phillips High school of the Spingarn medal by Dr. John Haynes Holmes of New York to Dr. Carter G. Woodson of Washington, editor of The Journal of Negro History, and author of numerous historical books on the Negro in America, there came to an end the 17th annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. A profound impression was made on the city of Chicago by the conference, among the outstanding features of the week being a luncheon given to the officers and directors of the N. A. A. C. P., by the Woman's Club of Chicago, one of the oldest and most prominent bodies of its kind in the country. At this luncheon the chief speakers included Miss Mary McDowell, commissioner of public welfare of the City of Chicago, Professors Tufts and Farris of the University of Chicago, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, James Weldon Johnson and Mrs. Addie W. Hunton. Another event that attracted much comment was the unannounced visit to one of the business sessions of the conference of Julius Rosenwald, well-known for his educational activities in behalf of colored people in the south. Mr. Rosenwald addressed the conference briefly, commending its work and aims and stating that his interest in the cause of the Negro proceeded from his interest in the welfare of the entire country; for he felt the country could not develop as it ought to if 10 per cent or more of the population were denied opportunity. At the Sunday afternoon mass meeting of the conference in the Auditorium theater, addressed by Clarence Darrow, James Weldon Johnson and Arthur B. Spingarn, a crowd estimated at 3,500 filled the entire auditorium and numbers of people crowded the street -vainly seeking admission. Mr. Darrow commented sarcastically on the white man's feeling of his own superiority. "I never yet knew a white man to object to the presence of a Negro anywhere if that Negro was working for him," said Mr. Darrow. Of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Mr. Darrow said: "There is no other organization, secular or religious, or all of them put together, that compares with this Association for service to the Negro. Never should the colored people of America let them lack ample funds for their great work. They are the only organized body of men and women having both the intention and the power to protect the Negro's liberties and rights. They have sense enough to know that the Negro cannot become a free man by begging from the whites or by waiting for aid from the clouds. The officers and leaders of the N. A. A. C. P. are the peers of any man of any color on the face of the earth." NINE LYNCHINGS FIRST SIX MONTHS OF Tuskegee, Ala.—(By the A. N. According to the records compi Tuskegee Institute in the department records and research that in the fi months of 1926 there were nine lyn This number is the same as the r for the first six months of 1925 REV. J. S. BLAINE GOES TO GARY, INDIANA Te Rev. J. S. Blaine, who has served the Cleaves Temple Colored M. E. church for the last three years, has been assigned to Gary, Ind., and will preach his closing sermon Sunday evening at 8 o'clock. He has added to the Cleaves church more than a hundred members and reduced the church indebtedness in principal and interest $6,060, with church debt paid up to date. The Rev. Mr. Blaine said, "I regret very much to leave the many friends I have made during my stay in the city,' and I leave with most pleasant memories of these few years I have labored among the people of Omaha, whom I have learned to love. "I have never served a more faithful and a more loyal group than the people of Cleaves. I was assigned to Cleaves from Topeka to take care of an emergency that arose that necessitated a change in the pastorate here. I rejoice that the Lord has smiled upon our labors and that we are leaving the church in a splendid way. There are some outstanding debts, to the amount of $200 I should like to have paid and believe I would have cleared them up if allowed to stay until the conference. But Gary needs me most. Gary has a basement paid out and about $2,000 in cash on the erection of a new auditorium. It has a congregation of 500 members and pays a salary of $2,400 a year." NEGRO TRAINMEN URGED TO UNITE MONSTER CONVENTION TO BE HELD IN MEMPHIS JULY Nashville, Tenn.—(By the A. N. P.)—According to an announcement made today by J. H. Eiland, grand president of the Association of Colored Railway Trainmen, a monster meeting of Negro trainmen, including brakemen, porters, and switchmen will be held in Mamphis, Monday, July 19. This meeting will be a part of the annual convention of the association, and the purpose of it is to effect an organization of all groups of railroad employees under one association. Mrs. James H. Wilson leaves Saturday night for a three weeks' visit with relatives in Lawrence, Kansas, and other points in Kansas. EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE DELEGATION CALLS ON PRESIDENT COOLIDGE Washington, D. C.—The National Equal Rights Legue and the United Colored Commercial Committee had an audience at the White House, Friday, at which time they presented the race's sesqui-centennial of the Declaration of Independence petition, against federal employee segregation, at the middle of American Independence Week. Twenty persons composed the delegation. The audience was conducted by Maurice W. Spencer, treasurer of the league, who introduced the delegates, explicitly stating their purposes. After introductions he presented Wm. Monroe Trotter, of Boston, secretary of the N. E. R. L., who presented the petition to the President. He placed on the table a big pile of petitions with 25,000 signatures from 40 states specifying one from they proved universal geographical opposition to federal segregation. He also presented one from the "372nd Battalion, Massachusetts National Guards which Mr. Coolidge authorized when governor. Mr. Trotter read the petition and declared segregation to be inequality of rights and asking for its removal for the race which shed the first blood for independence. He then asked the President to lead the way in having the United States make the 150th anniversary of American independence the beginning of a new American epoch for the abolishment of color caste prescription, segregation and public ostracism, by himself removing segregation of the colored clerks at Washington. He said this example by the government had given great impetus to every form of segregation and unless the President would abolish it now disaster will be inevitable. Finally, he urged abolition was a fair return for over 150 years of fighting, dying and sacrificing and in just appreciation of a perfect record of loyalty with never a traitor. The President replied to the spokesman in a calm, friendly manner, that some segregation had been removed and he would continue to remove more gradually until it was all removed. SHE WAS COLORED, BUT NOT AN AMERICAN NEGRO, SO SHE GOT A PULLMAN BERTH Kansas City, Mo.—Any kind of colored person in the world can get better treatment in American than the American Negro who has died to form, save and perpetuate the ideals of what many call this wondrous democracy. If you haven't heard of any case before this, listen to what happened to Senora de mena, of Nicaragua, who was a visitor in Kansas City last week. Mrs. de mena, a U. N. I. A. worker, who was the house guest of Mrs. V. J. Williams, 1323 Jackson street, went to the Pullman window at the Union station and received the same answer that many, many darkskinned travelers have received: "We have no berths . . . if you come back at six o'clock, perhaps . . ." But Mrs. de Mena was not accustomed to such treatment. "You have not even looked," she said with an accent, "you look at my face and decide you have none. If you were in my country . . ." Then she went upstairs to the passenger agent. After he examined her passports and credentials, he, himself went down to the Pullman window and returned with a reservation for her. It does not pay to fight and die for a country, evidently, for even with the fighting and dying, one cannot enter certain schools, hold certain jobs, buy certain homes or even reserve a berth in a Pullman. It pays to speak broken English and come from another country—a country as small, even, as Nicaragua. NEGROES TAUNT SOUTHERNERS Beverly, N. J.—(By the A. N. P.)—White victims of a Negro mob here complain that trouble broke when they got tired of hearing Negroes refer to them as Georgia "crackers". The whites, who are said to have been attacked, were imported laborers for a canning factory and most of them came from the south, especially Georgia. Mrs. Rebecca Cuff, 2219 Grace street, has been removed to Paxton Memorial hospital, where her condition has somewhat improved. GROWING THANK YOU! Whole Number 572 JUDGES ARE CHOSEN TO DECIDE WINNERS OF HARMON AWARD Outstanding Representatives of Music, Arts, Science and Business Will Select Successful Competitors. RACE IS WELL REPRESENTED Among Judges in Each Field Selected to Stimulate Creative Effort Among Negroes Are Race Members. Washington. — Outstanding musicians, artists, scientists, educators, religious leaders, university professors, economists and business men will serve as judges for the Harmon awards for distinguished achievement by Negroes of American residence. This announcement was made today by the Commission on Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, 105 East Twenty-second street, New York, which has been asked to administer the awards. These judges will consider nominations and make awards to Negroes of American residence who have made creative achievements in the seven major fields of literature, music, fine arts, industry including business, science including invention, education and religion, and also to a candidate, white or Negro, who has made an outstanding achievement in race relations. The awards are offered by the Harmon Foundation "to give annual recognition and stimulus to creative work among Negroes." The period for making nominations and filing applications is open until August 1 this year. Names of successful candidates will be announced about December 1. "I believe that the Harmon Foundation will afford a rallying point about which ambitious Negro men and women can gather," said William E. Harmon, president of the Harmon Foundation, in telling of the appointment of the judges. "It offers a platform from which their worthwhile accomplishments will receive the degree of public attention and consideration to which they are entitled. "No self-respecting Negro desires to secure advantage through special favor without due consideration being given to his merit. All he asks is a fair field of opportunity, words of encouragement, a sympathetic understanding, and the assurance that his work will be judged on a par with the work of the white race, without either unfair discriminatiin.

HEAD of Nebraska An Astute, Able, Clear- headed Business Man EAGER TO WIN RECENTLY we attended the races and ‘we were intensely in- terested in watching the thou- sands of men and women, of all classes and creeds, who were buying tickets or placing their money on their favorite horses. It was interesting to notice the avidity with which they entered into the lottery, for lottery it really was, and the eagerness with which each oné sought to win the coveted prize. It was a good natured crowd that jostled one another in their anxiety to get to the ticket sellers’ windows to place their bet. The common feature which impressed us was the eagerness of each one to risk his money to obtain big returns. Some drew big prizes, but many more drew blanks, Not deterred, how- ever, they tried and tried again. The fascination seemed to be the element of chance with the possibility of winning. The chance of winning, yes, that was it, and so they were willing to take the risk. As we saw many of our own group among this vast throng, some few drawing prizes, others blanks, the thought came to us, that while it is quite easy to get our people to take chances on the races and various games of chance, how exceedingly difficult it is to get them to invest their money or any portion of it in some busi- ness or commercial venture. We grant that they may gain, we grant that they may lose; but we have never yet been quite able to figure out why they who are such “good sports”, in play- ing the ponies, for example, are such poor sports when it comes to risk investing their money in the effort to build up some worthwile business enterprise that will in the long run pay large and lasting dividends both in money and character. Why is it? Will some one please explain? Mrs. J. Alice Stewart is the first woman of uor race to file for the legislature in Nebraska. She is a woman well qualified for the position and if nominated and elected her district will have no reason to apologize for her. It will be quite 4 distinetion to elect one of our capable women to the legislature. Team work will do it, The Monitor endorses the candidacy of Mrs. Stewart because we know her to be qualified by education and character for the position which she wes Loe eooeooeroororostrtrdint AN IMPORTANT WO!

For example, in literature we are represented by Stanley Braithewaite, the eminent literary eritie of the Boston Tran- script. In music by Burleigh;_in science hy Alain Locke, and so it goes, This shows wonderful progress. The time was not so far distant when selecting judges in literature, music, science, art, business, only white persons would have heen chosen. The fact that in all these fields discriminating folk recognize that we have men and women of ability, who do not suffer by comparison with those of the group with larger advantages is a matter of complimentary significance. The Harmon Foundation is rendering a most important service not only to our racial group, but to America, for that which helps ‘one section or group of the American people cannot fail to help them all. Where to Retrench THE Omaha school board is confronted with a deficit, which is nothing new. It is easily explainable. No adequate check has been kept upon expenditures, The expenditure of public money is never carefully scrutinized. Now the talk is about retrenchment. This retrenchment should not affect the efficiency of the teach- ing force. The failure to employ sufficient teachers to properly instruct the children would prove foolish and false economy. Advocacy of such a policy shows short sightedness. The place to retrench is not with the teaching force, but with the purchase of supplies and the erection of buildings. If the building contracts are watched, as they should be, it will be found that the saving will keep expendi- tures well within the budget. The fact that the serutiny of only one building contract saved $50,000 is positive proot that here is one very plain direction in which extravagance lies and which ae- counts for a large proportion of the defi cit, Keep the teaching force up to the tandard and please bear in mind that we lesire representation on that force. Re- rench in the right place. Money Talks! The National Asosciation for the Advancement of Colored People in its session just held, in Chicago took a forward step in setting out to collect a million dollars with which to fight for the rights of the Negro in the United States. It takes money to tell facts, and to prosecute THE MONITOR cases in court. The measure of onr interest in ourselves, is ac- curately gauged by what we give, because money and money only makes requests that are heard. In the past we have talked and promised to work. We have made some progress, but the truth is that we have been much helped by friends who gave us of their time and ability. We would have gained much faster had we armed ourselves with money, the medium of exchange, and been able to carry on the fight not only where we have had a Moorfield Storey and a Clarence Darrow, but every- where men live whose talents are on the market. Liberal hearted friends cannot supply the whole of our needs; and it is not fair to take their talents free or at a low price, when the advantage is ours, and when we can raise money with which to pay. The day the Negro in the United States puts his pocket- book behind his pleas for rights and opportunity, he will have the respect of his white neigh- bors. We will not have it until then, because the American peo- ple insist upon measuring a man’s worth by the amount of his money and the manner in which he uses it. The National Association having earned the good will from all our group, will not be ques- tioned as to its honest handling of the money people give. It is our elder brother, and while the fight sometimes is so hard that it is easy to doubt ultimate success, yet the fact that we have evolved such an association in 60 years of freedom, is proof that we have capabilities. —Kansas City Call.

The Boosters left Monday evening for home with the blessings of Godspeed upon them CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere thanks to friends and neighbors for their kindness and sympathy shown us during the illness and death of our sister, Miss Emma Smith, who died June 28th, and also for the many beautiful floral offerings.

The regular weekly meeting was held and plans completed for the Thursday dinner. "Can you tell me where Peat's Cafe is located here?" "Don't you know where it is?" "No, I just came in town." "Well, how did you know of Peat's Cafe." "Why, I heard of Peat's Cafe over 2,000 miles away from here." "Well, it's about the best place in town to eat at, for I've been eating there for years myself. Peat's place is all right. And say, Peat's girls were full of joy when he said, 'We will close Monday noon for a holiday. Ha, ha!'" Hurrah for Peat! Listen, my people, patronize your race. Stop passing them up. Remember your race and do not fight Peat's Cafe. Open day and night. When you want something to eat, go down to Twenty-fourth and d Hamilton streets to FLEUR DE LIS ART CLUB ENTERTAINS The ladies of the Fleur de Lis Art club, under the leadership of Mrs. H. Biddix as president, entertained with a tea on July 1 at the home of Mrs. J. E. Lindsay, 2424 North Twenty-seventh avenue. The table was decorated lovely with daisies and yellow roses. There was a large display of the work done by the members of the club since its organization two months ago. This was the opening affair of the club and was well attended, everyone expressing themselves as having a good time. In a clever contest, two prizes were given; Mrs. Thomas Bennett winning first prize and Mrs. P. S. Stovall second prize. Yellow roses were given as favors. By the way, have you thought of your next winter's cool? In the Matter of the Estate of Henry Peter Joseph, deceased.

New York City—(By the A. N. P.)—Urgent need for more adequate institutional facilities for Negro children is pointed out in the annual report of General Manager Ernest K. Coulter of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. "The growth of the colored population in New York City in the last ten years has been about 75,000," he says. "There has been practically no increased provision of institutions for colored children needing care, despite this phenomenal growth. Further delay in meeting this problem for this large population which now forms an important part of our community cannot but continue to bring increasingly serious results."

P.)—Five bell boys, colored, taken into custody by the police when a Mrs. Laura Norton, white, a guest in the Hotel Main, complained that she had been attacked by two of them, were released when the victim failed to identify either. Police discredited her story and intimated that she was suffering from a weak mind. Happily, the innocence of the bell boys was established, before the customary mob got into action, but those were some frightened boys. COLORED AMERICAN MUST BE GIVEN HIS FULL RIGHTS AS CITIZEN (Continued From Page One.) cation. It is rank injustice for any community to do otherwise. Not only is it rank injustice to the colored Americans but it is rank injustice to the United States, for the children of today are the country of tomorrow. Anyone who denies the children the chance to get a good education is striking directly at the interests of the entire country. In the interest of my children, I demand that all children be given a fair chance. "I have heard time and again short-sighted Southerners maintain that the Southern Negroes are not educated enough to exercise the franchise intelligently and in the same breath state that they did not believe in spending money on schools for colored people. They did not seem to realize that their injustice in refusing to provide schools was responsible for the condition of which they complained. They were perfectly willing to see the Negroes called upon to pay taxes and defend the country in time of war but they denied them the vote and schools. They were willing to see them bear the burden of citizenship but would deny them the privileges. "We demand for all American citizens full governmental rights and full opportunities for development. I will fight with every ounce of strength that I have for the rights of my colored American fellow citizens, but it is their responsibility when they get these rights to employ them. "They have done excellently, as anyone who scans the record of the last 70 years must admit. Their advance in commerce and industry is evident in any of our great cities. Their work has not been confined to gainful occupation. There are educators like Booker Washington; soldiers like Colonel Young; poets like Dunbar and Johnson; historians like Woodson; singers like Roland Hayes. I could give a hundred more names, many of them men whom I am happy to call my friends. They took their part in the war. We served together as comrades in France. Many of them lie buried there with my brother. "This development must continue and broaden. At this time, I feel one of our needs is more sound, able leadership for colored men by colored men. It is for this reason I am happy to be a member of the Spingarn medal committee, for I feel that by recognizing leadership, you encourage it. "We are Americans now and nothing else and our first duty is to this country. Our loyalty does not lie first either to your African ancestors or to my Dutch ancestors. We wish all men well wherever they may live in the world, but primarily our service and our duty lies here in our own country. We demand for all colored Americans the full opportunity to develop themselves and we pledge to this country our undivided and unchangeable loyalty and devotion."
