tained in mixed schools in other parts of Kansas or that the other sections of the state should be afflicted with the same system that Parsons now has.
The colored people of Parsons are not satisfied with the equipment, facilities and location of their school. The system was thrust upon them by stenosis brought through the ditch, as the record of the supreme court will attent. Their school is located on the extreme edge of the town near the Frisco and Katy railroad crossing and in order to get to this school many children are compelled to go two miles or more and cross as many as eleven railroad tracks. They are not satisfied, but they are bearing with characteristic fortitude confidence which they are compelled to accept. They lack skill and only point out a single city in Kansas in which seperate schools are maintained wherein equal facilities are recorded colored children.
parental selling. The same importance generates the bosom of colored parents that breats in the hearts of any class of American citizens. We have the same desire for the best possible facilities for the education of our children. We have the same ambition to reach the highest standard of American citizenship, and Jim Crow laws are needless barriers to our progress in our efforts to nigrate that culture. We have given both blood and measure for the upholding of Old Glory and we feel that the time is rape for our American citizenship to be real and not merely ritualistic.
Army "Y" No.150
Camp Zachary Taijor, K).—A few works ago the Government saw fit to designate Camp Zachary Taijor, located at Louisville, K.), a demobilizing point for troops returning from over seas as well as other American camps and especially men living in surrounding states. Since that time several thousand Negro troops have been muscled associated with the Coast. Closely associated with the Government, this work has been the Y. M. C. A. staff of building No 150, composed entirely of Negro secretaries, numbering eight men. Under the leadership of Oliver S. Burnett who has been in charge of the work for the past four months, the work has progressed under his watchful eye until it is said that the work in this building is far ahead of any similar work in the past. The green man self a man fitted for the green shirt being done and has the confidence and cooperation of all men under him and all the soldiers who have come in contact with him will never forget the smile that was always waiting, the kind words and handshakes which always carried with them that brother-
feeling and friendship. Mr. Jimmett is an Indianapolis man and received his association training in his area where he gave his services always with the help of gladness. At one time in charge of the class club, as well as social work, he often remarks that he owes his success to two of our association societies, Mr. Thys B. Taylor and Mr. K. B. Erlanzt with whom he has associated and who stand out prominently in the association world. There has been brought to the building for the entertainment of the men, the best literary and musical talent to be found among our students in this section of the country as well as the seldom talented of boys sent out by the National War Work Council of the M. M. A.
It might in the "Y" but there's something for the boys. I tell they get" the teachings of a Christian mother or father and there is brought to them each evening the story of the Christ, and in order to further keep the interest and attention of the men engaged we bring to them clean, healthful amusements such as vaudeville, motion pictures etc., what are always enjoyed by the men.
The educational work of the building is in charge of Secy. Thos. Dillue, for the past twelve years, librarian of the colored branches of the holdsville public library, and she drew pictures of objects from the location. Under his supervision 302 classes were held with an enrollment of 20,345 men. Thirty-two lectures were given along various educational lines with an attendance of 20,623.
The religious feature of camp life under the direction of SCC B H Taylor for a number of years pastor of the leading Negro church at Wilton, N C has been all that one could desire and was well linked up with the every day day of service and men making professed faith in Christ. The religious feature being greatly in demand by the enrolled men. Seventy two meetings were held with 200 men attending. Assisted by a number of local organizations among women of the city the social life of the camp has been brilliant with musical and literary programs. This work is recorded by S C B H Smith for the KA
LIEUT. BETTIS HITS MR. PINET
Wichita Editor Shows the Injustice of Segregation in Public Schools.
Lieut. William A. Bettis, editor of the Wichita Protest, and one of the keenest and most fearless writers in the West, hit segregation a solar plexus in the Sunday issue of the Tampa Daily Capital, when he took a fall out of one F. L. Pinet, secretary of the Kansas State Teachers' association. The Pinet endorsed the bill introduced in the House on June 1, one Yount of Galena. The article penned by Lieut. Bettis follows and appeared in the capital under glaring headlines. Bettis says:
"I have read with deepest interest an article in one of Topkaka's daily papers by Mr. F. I. Pinet, advocating accurate schools for colored American children, 'all over the state of Kansas', and being fully cognizant of the spirit of fair play, which has at all times characterized your schooldid paper. I feel at liberty, in behalf of my people, to offer a reply thereto, and, in response to my request, to aid to the segregation hill, which Mr. Pinet so strenuously advocates and defends. I do not favor it—because it is an unjust, humiliating discrimination against a class of loyal American citizens; it would entail an unnecessary expense upon the taxpayers in communities where it would obtain. It would mean inferior facilities for the education of the colored youth of Kansas. It would be the first backward step taken by the state of Kansas in the past half century. "Liberty an Empty Dream" Decades ago, the thesis of of the principles upon which the Republican party is founded and is directed against the party's most loyal contingent.
Because it is not within the spirit of world democracy, for which so man) of our boys have fought and died over there.
Because segregation and Jim Crow laws are cornerstones upon which Southern Democrats have builted for the past fifty years and to rear down such unjust work is one of the unfinished missions of the Republican party.
Because the passage to such a law by the legislature of this state would proclaim to the world insofar as colored Americans are concerned, that in Kansas, the cradle of liberty, and upon whose soil the early battles of freedom were fought, world's democracy is but an empty dream and the

civil rights bill a mere scrap of paper,
Mr. Pinet contends that because of the fact that the State Teachers' association has indorsed an unfair law against the colored children of Kansas and because of the further facts that he has taught mixed schools at Chanute and was superintendent of schools at Parsons, where the colored children have a separate school, located practically in the railroad yards and are said to be satisfied, he holds that separate schools are essential to the progress of colored children. He also makes the unqualified assertion that there is no question but separate schools should be provided if education is to do its full duty to the colored child
So, are the news, but many faltered Christian men and women of beams take jame with him and there are many who believe that education has not done its full duty to any man or woman, who will not give to the other fellow the same rights that he takes for himself, they believe that a man with proper education and Christian training should be imbued with the correct principles, counsel, and the lowly Norsemen, the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, "As you would other men, you do so unto them. The State Teachers and Persons together with Mr. Pilot are a very philological portion of the science of kames, and if the colored children of climate did not make us he claims, our poor philology in mixed schools and in the colored people of Persons were satisfied with inferior equipments and location of their school and they are not in doubt and imply that similar conditions ob

GIVE PEACE CONFERENCE MONEY TO THE KANSAS DEFENSE SOCIETY
where he directed and coached the athletic teams of that institution. His work at this place has been highly commended by the military officers. Five hundred men have participated in games and athletic stunts. The business and financial affairs of the building are in charge of Secy. Geo. K. G. Brown, formerly of Western University, Quincy. This building had the solo distraction of being the only building among fifteen others in the camp to establish a banking system whereby soldiers would have a safe deposit for the handling and keeping of their money. By this means over $2,500 was handled for enlisted men. This proved to be very helpful to the men and was very much appreciated by the officers. A mess was laid upon sending money home and relatives and during a period of the months over $2,500 was remitted to the folks back home by the boys in camp.

Rev. J. K. Ransom,
Wichita, Kansas.
Dear Friend, I note the fact that the Democrats have succeeded in getting a blockade against the colored delegates to France. I think our enemies are among our own race and can be charged up to a faction of colored men whom nobody wanted to send as delegates to the Peace Conference. Therefore they got busy and blocked the game.
If you do not succeed in going before the Conference adjourns, we will be glad for you to use your influence among those who donated the money over to the Kansas Defense Society, as you know, we have a great input on hand, not only for the soldiers, but other matters pertaining to the interest of the race, which will require considerable money.
Yours very truly,
NICK CHILES
President Kansas Defense Society and
Editor of The Topeka Plaindealer.
We curiously hope that those who donated to the cause of sending the Rev. Dr. Ransom to the Peace Conference, now that the plan has failed, will urge him to turn the funds provided by them over to the Kansas De-

from Kansas, and even Choroke
city, are over in Ivory and other
masses of Europe math, the supreme

everyone "makin the world safe for

ideal.
Surely Kansas will not enact more
but Crow laws to oppress and cut
short the rights of the Negro as his
reward for unjustifiable loyalty and
his supreme sacrifice he has made for
this country. Surely if you record the Negro equal rights to die for his country in order that freedom, liberty, and justice may be given to all men, certainly he ought to be allowed to live—and live in the spirit of freedom, liberty, and justice in this country.
I realize that the under-current is strong for separate schools. So it was for slackery. So it was for booze. But these have gone, because they were wrong, and so must intense race prejudice cease, because it is wrong.
I sincerely hope, and I believe, you will not help to mash such a Jim Crow scool law on the one above mentioned. It is grave, and of Salem count there with me in the hope and belief that you will do the square and honorable thing relative to all Jim Crow and an-American bills that may come up in the House—defeat them!

This organization is using everything within its power to obtain the freedom of the soldiers accused of participating the Houston, Tex. riot and are making commendable progress, and all that is needed is funds with which to carry on the fight. The case will come up for hearing in a short time.
The Kansas Defense Society has succeeded in so far Locking Jim Crow legislation in Kansas and will fight any measure intended to take away the privileges of the race, to do this require our watchmen on the wall at the State House who are camping on the job and are in close touch with every move of both houses of the legislature. Topek is generous in contributing to the Society which has enabled them to make a successful fight against Jim Crow in Kansas.
The Kansas Defense Society is doing what other organizations have proposed to do with headquarters one thousand miles from the scene of conflict and who use none of the funds to assist Kansas in her struggle to maintain equal rights for all of her citizens. Think the matter over and lets keep Kansas dollars where they will be used to defend you and yours. A word from you to Rev. Ransom will bring a prompt response.

THE TRUTH ABOUT PARSONS SCHOOL
Parsons, Kan. Feb 2, 1919.
Mr. Nick Chiles, Tongue, Kauai.
Mr. Nick Chiles, Topeka, Kansas.
Dear Friend—I am prompted to write you concerning the proposed separation of the schools in this state, and especially Mr. Pinet's reasons for supporting the movement. I read in a local paper that you had written to him to use his influence to defeat the measure, and read his reply to you.
Mr. Pinet is quoted as saying that he had been superintendent of schools both at Chanute, where the schools were mixed, and also at Parsons, where they were separate, and that the separate schools here were more satisfactory than the mixed schools at Chanute. I will say this, that of Mr. Pinet, knows no more about separate schools than he learned while here. I would suggest that he make a tour of the states that have separate schools, beginning in Missouri, which is close to home. The separate school system in this city might be called a "board" system, designed and worked out in a school board that includes an office to oversee the math and education of the entire New population of this city, when they take the mute to test the school board's intention to separate the schools here. The introduction of the color scheme, and the school board kept in touch with the parents of the students to prevent misuse. Keeping the school board only well, the school board of that time sought to solve the problem of the color people by giving them the color "bait" in the city, modern
in every detail, and put in a corps of good teachers to top it off. That is the separate school idea that Mr. Pinet has. No other city in the state would ever be given such a building, nor such modern playground equipment, etc. The dangerous location of the building—across and through a net work of railroads—is the one real Jim Crow feature. I have taught in Missouri, where the schools are separate, and I taught here before the schools were separated, and inferior buildings and teachers and impossible locations are rule in separate schools. Now this letter is solely to show you that Mr. Pinet's idea of separate schools, as he found here, would not be a fair standard to judge from if he doesn't know any more about separate schools than he gleaned here. Now for business reasons I will ask you not to publish this letter with my signature attached, but you may use any part or all of it in your fight against the bill, if you wish.
Yours for justice.

LEAVENWORTH OUT IN A PROTEST
LEAVENWORTH OUT IN A PROTEST
To the Members of the Legislature of the County of Leavenworth, State of Kansas;
We are desirous of calling your attention to a mass meeting held in Leavenworth, Kansas, January 28, 1919. The following resolutions were voted upon and adopted by the citizens at such meeting.
Viewing with alarm the growing hostilities of some of the members of the Legislature to stir up strife and race hatred among the citizens of the different races in the public schools of the State of Kansas, and noting that a bill has been introduced in the Senate and House of Representatives for the State of Kansas, asking for separation and segregation of colored children and white children in cities of the 2nd class. It is by the sense of this mass meeting that we are positively opposed to any legislation that would amend Section 9136 of the General Statutes of 1915, relative to colored and white children in school and adopt the following resolutions relative to the name.
1st. Be it resolved that we, the citizens of Leavenworth, Kansas, in mass meeting assembled, are opposed to the said amendment and bill that now being introduced and pending in the Legislature of Kansas relative to the segregation of children of the colored race, who work so hard and so honestly for an education.
2nd. Be it further resolved that such a bill and such legislation is Un-American and without the best interests of the people and citizens of the State of Kansas and only stripe up race hatred and causes the conditions and opportunities for colored children of this state to be denied the best rights and privileges of getting an education.
3rd. Be it further resolved that we believe in a Republic form of government, a Democracy for the people that each and every child, be they black or white, should have an equal and equal chance in this life for the blessings of liberty, the right to express the same and the right to enjoy each and all of the freedoms and privileges of the public schools, and R would mean an unusual and unnecessary taxation upon the now overburdened tax payers and citizens of Kartei.
4th Be it further resolved that you, the members of the Legislature and particularly you, the representatives from Leavenworth County, Kansas, do all in your might, power and honest way to defeat all bills and amendments relative to Section 9118 of the General Statutes of 1918, particularly that part of Article 12 of Chapter 105 of and General Statutes of Kansas, it being namely for the purpose of discouraging, aggrivating, bringing about community strife and causing unrest among and between the raucs of children of this commonwealth. 5th Be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Honorable B.' E. Eaton, J. M. Gilam and the Honorable C. E. Snyder, Nurse from Leavenworth County. Also that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Honorable Henry Allen, Governor of the State of Kansas, and the Lieutenant Governor, C. S. Hoffman, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Hon.

While other churches have donated to the cause, Shiloh has contributed the largest fund and the Baptist church at Fayette, Mo. stands second on the list. The Society is indeed grateful to Res. Watson and his splendid congregation.

Lassay, France, Jan. 10, 1910.
My dear Friend: I thought I would drop you a few lines to let you know that we are all getting along fine, and the Division will be home soon. We sail the 7th of February, and the 319th will be back to Camp Funsto to be mustered out. So I would like for you to give my Company, and also comrades, a nice write-up, and I know that the boys will be very happy, as we are not receiving any mail at present, the mail for the 92d Divis on being held up, owing to the fact that the boys are ordered home.
Companies A and B of the 349th were praised by all the staff officers of the American Expeditionary Forces for their gallantry on the 11 day and 11 hour Nov 11, 1918, on the Metz sector. Well, Nick, I saw a Plain-daleer in Italy when I was down there on a furlough, and I certainly was glad to know that your paper is travelling with us boys. I have been very sick since I came out of the traches and I have been a boy. You can look for the Kansas boy soon. I will remain, with best wishes, with SGT. E. SIMMON Co. A. 349th M. G. B'n, A. E.
