Cl Topeka Plaindealer The Immortals: Lincoln and Douglass List Your Rooms for The Supreme Encampment of Knight Pythias at Topeka Aug. 1921 The Colored Man In the Lime Light --- Frank Opinions and Comment Gathered Here and There by Men of Authority. (By The Associated Negro Press Washington, Job in James A. Hollomon, Washington to respondent of the Atlanta Constitution recent ly held an executive interview with Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson. Republican National Committee from Georgia. Because of the denitrance of the story, it is bereft with quoted in full Henry Lincoln Johnson. Negro member from Graphy of the National republica committee, says he will largely coorl the Georgia patronized under the Helms administration. That statement is perhaps authentic and is substantiated from sources directly linked with the chief heads of the union in politicl regime. In an exclusive statement as to George O. was made to me today by Johnson, the Negro leader declared that President Parding would quickly receive the Wilson Civil service order covering all presidential positions, but that a great number of the smaller appointments offices in Georgia would continue to be administered by commissioners. "Johnson declared that he would ask that competent Negro men and women be employed as clerks, messengers and so on in the larger cities such as collectors of internal revenue the first class post offices and other of the major commissioned offices. "Johnson will make Washington his headquarters for the next four years. He may be register of deeds for the district, registrar of the U.S. treasury, or minister to Haiti, or any one of which positions is open to him forever. Johnson declared to me I do not know that I shall accept a government position. I may practice law here, with offices in Atlanta also, and interest myself in some proposed legislation in which I am vitally concerned. I am particularly anxious to see the sixty-seventh congress pass an antllynch law. Such a bill will pass I am assured. "It is plainly evident that from a mercenary viewpoint wholly, Johnson with the tour of the administration and of republican leaders could make infinitely more money as a political lawyer in Washington during the Harding administration than as an official, and this is probably the viewpoint that has the Atlanta Negro swinging on the fence at the present time (By The Associated Negro Press New Haven, Conn. Feb 10—Writing on the Negro Problem in the January Yale Review, Frank Boaz an anthropologist of note, says, 'The greatest hope for the immediate future lies in a lessening of the contrast between Negroes and whites which will bring about a lessening of class consciousness. It would seem therefore, to be in the interest of society to permit rather than to restrain marriage between white men and Negro women. It would be futile to expect that our people would tolerate intermarriages in the opposite direction, although no scientific reason will be given that would prove them to be detrimental to the individual.' The Associated Negro Press Buffalo, N.Y., Feb 10—The organization of the Haitian African Coffee Company has been formed, composed of some of the leading men of the city, with a capital of $5,000. The company will establish agents thru out the country, and pack under the name of the Haitian Special and the Monrovia brands. The factory and office located in the organization's own building promises to be a great success. The Associated Negro Press Washington Feb. 10—The news has reached Washington that the President elect Cookidge went down to Atlanta and literally "stilled the beans." The distinguished Mac- chusner stateman was one of the chief guests of the Southern Tulah Congress which met in Atlanta last week. One of the features of the program mapped out for him by its host was a meeting at which he spoke to the Color d people of Atlanta This meeting was held in the First Constitutional Church Governor H. Dorssey presided and the room of the colored population were out in indoors. Spelman Seminary and Morrhouse College provided a musical program "that deluted the infrequished guest and the auditors as well." Among other things Mr. Collidge said I come from the Commonwealth in Massachusetts where there are many people interested in your welfare, who have contributed money without end to the upholding of those institutions that you might profit by the very best that they have. They have sent among you, teachers who have undertaken to help and instruct you in all that is best on this side of paradise, and perhaps you owe to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and its citizens something of a debt of gratitude "But as great as all that may be all that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and your friends have done for you, does not compare with that which the people around you have done for you; and friendly though the people of Massachusetts have been, and helpful though they may have been, you have no better friends than those who live about you here and contribute always to your welfare, your success and your happiness. And if you want to make good for the work that has been done by the men and women of Massachusetts, then continue in your well doing; continue to cooperate with the people around you here; continue in your industry, in your work day by day. "I want, as an American, to see you increase in your character, to see you progress in your material welfare; to see you continue to exemplify, as you have done the very best there is in the character of men and women, and in the devotion always—whatever your temptations may be—that which you have exemplified from time to time to America, to its flag, to its institutions and to its preservation forever This was the closing sentence of Mr Coolidge's speech. At least this is the report of it sent out of Atlanta. From what can be gleaned from the comments of some of the prominent Colored men and women here in Washington, Mr. Coolidge failed utterly to catch any of the present day spirit of the Colored people in the city of Atlanta excepting in his particular reference to the matter of "temptations" to be other than Americans. Things are very quiet here in a general way. It may be the calm before the proverbial storm Nobody seems to have any idea what is going to happen. It may be that this condition of uncertainty is the reason for the disturbing effect of Coolidge speech TO OUR CITY SUBSCRIBERS If our Collector does not reach you at home, kindly call 3300 and we will call again.

An article in the current number of the Commercial and Financial Chronicle, says there are now in the United States 12,000,000 Negroes. They constitute one-seventh of the working force of the country. Of the 3,000,000 men, 8,000,000 are farmers and 1,000,000 farm laborers. Eighty per cent of the women are in new seedy home and industrial life In 1868, Negroes in this countr owned 1,000 houses operated 20,000 farms, conducted 21 businesses and lived over $20,000,000 of accumulated wealth. In 1914 the number of homes had increased to 60,000, the operated farms 15,000, the business to 15,000 and the wealth to over $110,000,000. Seventy banks are directed by Negro shrineholders (Over 10) perhaps due to owned by Negroes.

THE WHITE MAN IS SEEING FROM A NEW ANGLE Minneapolis, Minn. Feb. 10. "The old South is breaking up in more senses than one. Dr. Albert E Jenks, the anthropological expert of the University, has recently pointed out four 'significant movements taking place among the Colored people of this country,' says a rather unusual editorial in the Minneapolis Journal, in an editorial under the caption, "New Tendencies Among Negroes." Continuing the Journal says: "The first is that the Negro since the Civil War has become a migrant. A million and more have left the South and taken up residence in the northern cities. In the wake of this movement come such race troubles as that which broke out in East St Louis, Chicago and Duluth. 'A second movement is the tendency of the Negro to intermarry with certain white stocks. This amalgamation has been taking place for sometime, but only of late has it become pronounced. In the Eastern cities the Negro is intermarrying with those of South European origin. The effects of such racial mixture are not yet known." "A third tendency is the increasing political influence of the Colored element. A movement is already on foot for Negroes to elect their own representatives to Congress wherever possible. This effort to acquire a greater political influence is advocated by some of their own leaders. "A fourth movement is toward segregation. This is taking place in at least three separate areas of the south. Negroes flourish better in some regions than whites, and not so well in others. In some parts of the South the whites are decreasing and the Negroes increasing at such a rate that the results must soon be reckoned with. "The first conclusion to which these tendencies point is that further Negro immigration from the West Indies and Africa should be stopped. The admission of six thousand Colored allens every year from these regions only complicates the problem of racial relations. "The second conclusion is that unwise. It has not advanced the Colored people of Haitt or Liberia. Proper distribution seems to be the path toward the Negro's development. "The third conclusion points to the necessity of getting exact data on questions of racial relations and intermixture so that problem arising therefrom may be intelligently handled.

"The Soul of America." (By Associated Negro Press) "What shall I tell my son?" asks the reputable, intelligent, thirty-successful Negro father. He continues: "Must I sit him down before me in the happy comforts of our home and say: 'My son, I have some very important information to impart to you tonight. I have kept the truth from you for a long time, but you must be told. My son, you belong to an inferior race, and this is a white man's country. Yes, I took the honors in college, and have been eminently successful in business. I have overcome all obstacles and have reared a family of which I am proud, and this home with all its comforts is ours entirely, and we have splendid investments and money in the bank for all emergencies. But son, you are very inferior to any person with a white skin, and in heaven and earth and possibly in hell, the white race is supreme! Must I say that?" He asks. "What shall I tell my daughter?" asks the charming, cultured beautiful Negro mother. She continues: "Must I place my arms about her and look in her sweet and gentle face and say, 'Daughter, my dear, you have na honor that a white man is bound to respect. You are a more thing, a poor inferior, and all white people are superior and supreme. You must never think of resenting an insult from a white man, in fact you are so near nothing that the great supreme white man cannot insult you, it matters not what he may do. Yes, I know I have taught you about purity and virtue, but wherever you go, remember that a white face means superiority and supremacy." LEGAL NOTICE IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF SHAWNED COUNTY, KANSAS.
