"Any prejudice.whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1917. THANK GOD! The Associated Press dispatches very seldom bring good news to colored people; but, last Tuesday was one dispatch that was read with unalloyed joy by the colored people as follows: Washington, D. C., Nov. 5.—Louisville's Negro segregation ordinance was today declared unconstitutional by the Supreme court. The decision affects similar ordinances in Baltimore, Richmond, St. Louis and many southern cities. In rendering the opinion Justice Day said: "The authority of the state to pass laws in the exercise of the police power having for their object the promotion of the public health, safety and welfare is very broad and has been affirmed in numerous and recent decisions of this court. But it is equally well established that the police power, broad as it is, cannot justify the passage of a law or ordinance which runs counter to the limitations of the federal constitution. "That there exists a serious and difficult problem arising from a feeling of race hostility which the law is powerless to control and to which it must give a measure of consideration may be freely admitted. But its solution can not be promoted by depriving citizens of their constitutional rights and privileges. The right which the ordinance annulled was the civil right of a white man to dispose of his property if he saw fit to do so to a person of color and of a colored person to make such disposition to a white person." We might say much in reference to this act of tardy justice, but we will satisfy ourselves by saying: "Praise God, from whom all blessings flow." WAR AND THE COLORED PEOPLE There are, we opine, very few thinking people who do not agree with General Sherman in his declaration of what war is. And if there were any doubting Thomases, three years ago, they, doubtless, are now convinced that Sherman knew whereof he spoke. Since Uncle Sam really got into the world war there has been a very preceptible change in this country and the people generally are measuring up to the conditions that confront them. They are patriotically THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friends I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. buying Liberty Loan Bonds by the billions, they are conserving on food, they are sending their men, young and old, by the hundreds of thousands, to assist the allies in winning the war. The women, God bless them, are taking a hand as they never did before and showing that they are entitled to receive the consideration men receive, by taking up and performing men's work in all sorts of labor or endeavor. This war has worked wonders in industrial lines for the colored people, and they by thousands are securing positions, in the labor world, for which they were not even considered three years ago. They are also receiving consideration in military matters such as was hardly thought possible, and they are generally making good. This latter fact is very gratifying as they are learning that their efforts are not confined to certain menial lines, but they have something of a chance to earn their bread by the sweat of their brows in many new fields. And, while war may be all that Sherman says it is it has in a way verified the old adage: It's an ill wind that blows nobody good. GRAMMATICAL UNANIMITY Hoover says the prices of food will be reduced before the New Year comes and Garfield says there will be plenty of coal for all domestic and industrial needs. Crozier says there will be rifies enough for our soldiers who go to France. Sharpe says there will be adequate heating apparatus in the cantonment barracks. The use of the future tense by the authorities at Washington seems to be unanimous. And, if these things come in the near future we'll hall them as prophets. INCREASED PENSIONS PROPOSED Substantial increases in existing rates of pension for disablement of the limbs from injuries received in line of duty, are contained in a bill introduced by Representative George P. Darrow of Pennsylvania, which will come up for action by the House at the next session of congress. Mr. Darrow's proposed rates run from $65 for the loss of total disability of one hand or one foot, to $150 for the loss or total disability of both arms and both legs. They amount roughly to an increase of about 50 per cent in the existing rates for similar cases. The bill is made to apply to persons already on the pension rolls, and to all who may be granted a pension hereafter, but Mr. Darrow specifically provides that the measure shall not operate to reduce any pension heretofore granted. The passage of this measure will be heartily approved of by the people. --- WAR SAVINGS CERTIFICATES The new war savings certificates will bear 4 per cent interest, will run for a term of five years and will be issued in denominations as low as $5. They are to be just what their names indicate, "savings" certificates, a means of investment for small savings, so that the money will be safe and profitable and at the same time affording the government the use of it. It is planned to sell the certificates to the public on the installment plan by using stamps that may be purchased and pasted in a book for that purpose. When there are sufficient stamps to cover the cost of a certificate the book can be exchanged for one. The stamps will be placed on sale in every town and city in the country. The individual who has money laid by for a rainy day need have no hesitation in converting it into war-say "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at the He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ov To enforce the wrong, My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. * * * * * * Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the ances of relatives or s.—Charles Sumner. ings certificates, since the government will redeem them at any time upon the request of the holder, allowing interest at 4 per cent. Under this arrangement the investor in these certificates will have the satisfaction of knowing that if any emergency should arise in his family, such as sickness or death, he could immediately realize upon his certificates. It is a safe prediction that the war savings certificates will go like "hot cakes." Their small denomination, the good interest rate, the terms upon which they may be purchased, the fact that they are not subject to taxation when held by persons of small means—all will make them an attractive investment. Working people whose margin of income above expenses is narrow at best will find in them an excellent incentive for beginning the prudent habit of saving. They will be popular for Christmas presents. School children will be able to invest part of their little weekly allowances in certificates. As a result many millions will be transferred to the Federal Treasury and through it will flow into the channels of trade, while the people of small means will be made to feel that they, too, are doing their share toward helping their country win the war. A VICTORY WITH A STRING TO IT. The decision of the Supreme Court of the United States handed down Monday, declaring residential segregation unconstitutional is all right so far as it goes, but the court read into the decision a lot of extraneous matter about the "desirability of preventing the amalgamation of the races" and the court also took especial pains to point out and re-affirm that "laws providing for the separation of the races in public conveyances and in the public schools have been upheld." The National Food Administration is doing its utmost in every way possible to educate the people up to the fact that there is not enough food stuffs to supply our needs without the practice of rigid economy by everyone, especially the housewives. The forecast of available supply indicates grave danger of serious shortage, unless conservation is vigorously and nationally practiced. The slogan is: "In' the Name of Liberty—SAVE FOOD". Should Open the Doors to Opportunity (From the Christian Register.) (From the Christian Register.) A circular sent out to employers in a large city, calling attention to the number and quality of young colored men trained in the schools of the city, and asking co-operation and counsel in making their services available, brought one reply which though anonymous is significant of an opinion still widely influential. "Kindly send them to Africa, instead of mixing them with us." As the expression of an individual desire these two points are of course admissible, but as practicable measures it is curious that any intelligent person should seriously entertain them. Does the suppose that the colored population of the United States could be sent to Africa, or that if they were sent they would go? So long as they are here, and have already been mixing for more than a century, and have the rights of citizenship, including the right to die with white men for their country, is it any reckonable menace to respectability and intrinsic leadership to open a few more industrial doors to their proved abilities and usefulness? While we write, a moving-van is unloaded by two white men and one colored man. The colored man is the boss, the white man take his orders. There is not the least trouble about it. There would never be trouble if it were not made by people of the temper of the anonymous objector. 'S FOULEST BLOT." is pained every day's report with which earth is filled.

Baker Says They Will Be Trained in States Where Raised. Washington, D. C.—Secretary Baker of the war department has announced that colored troops drafted into the United States army will have the same consideration and treatment heretofore given them under the rules of the army. Those colored troops drafted in states having camps of their own will be trained in them, which means that the Illinois contingent of colored troops will train at Rockefeller Univ. from other states will be assembled and trained with their state troops as separate organizations, the same as is now done in the regular army. Will Be Called Separately. "The rule of the regular army in the matter of the training of the colored troops as separate organizations will be adhered to," said Mr. Baker. "The call for colored men will be postponed until one of the latter calls, so that they will be called at a separate time, thereby giving an opportunity to the troops in the camps to assemble the organization, to train them substantially all at one time. They will not be called last, but they will be called separately. May Volunteer for France. "All colored men called in a state which has a cantonment in it will be organized and train there. Provision will be made for the assembling of colored troops from those states which have no cantonments. It has not yet been made. An opportunity will be given to both white and colored men among the selected forces to volunteer for service and, training in certain lines of communication organizations, which is necessary to form, and it is hard that an adequate number will volunteer as military, but non-combatant service officers will be both combatant and noncombatant organizations, just as there are white organizations." Those who volunteer for this service, it is said, will have an early opportunity to go to France." Why Did They Prefer "Colored?" (From the New York News.) (From the New York News.) We trust that all of the advocates—learned and otherwise, white and black, North and South—of the use of the word "Negro" as a race term have caught the full meaning of its use at Houston, Texas. At the request of the four-fourth infantry men themselves, the authorities cided to refer to them henceforth as "colored" soldiers. They had been deprived and nagged and goaded by the corrupted use of the word until for bearance ceased to be one of their virtues. They had become contemptuously and constantly referred to in the daily press not as American soldiers, or Americans, nor as "Uncle Sam's Boys" or in any other respectful terms. They had been designated and obeyed the public mind there, because the public mind was that the American flag—"Negroes." Perceiving this evil practice and influence the while officers of the Twenty-fourth appealed to the authorities to use the word "colored." instead. With the word "colored," to troops or soldiers would have to be used. A kindler feeling between the soldiers and the townpeople they were sure would inevitably result. They were profoundly right, but they were too late. Had the practice obtained prior to their enlistment, the state or affairs might have ensured. We all promiscuous, wilful and indifferent users of the word "Negro" to ponder this situation slowly. The request of the troopers and their officers for the change should be a striking example to all Doubting Thomasases as to just how the practice works out today in hard, everyday life. Whatever the argument about making it respectable in the future, it decreases respect for the race today. It does no good today, the harm that reason, then for its use, are you be called a "Nigger?" Are you pleased to have your wife or mother called a "Negress." Then discontinue using "Negro." If you think it worth while for you to be referred to as a man and your folk as people, insist on the use of the word "colored." Jim-Crow Camp Opposed. (Chicago Defender.) In the east-Major General Wood of the United States army has started a movement for a separate military training school at New York City. Every man in the east should look upon this with disfavor and oppose it. There should be no segregation in an army of the United States. If there should be a military training it should be the men of the east who think especially doctors and writers, should sound a death knell to this "Jim Crow" proposition. It will not be tolerated in the west and should not be in the east. In other countries all men of all colors and nationalities serve on the same army and fight for the same flag because it does not segregate or discriminate. On the firing line we should be as one. No longer members of the race should be looked upon as coooling the rank of equality, with no injustice or discrimination heralded against them. In case of war a number of southern whites are getting it in their breasts to lead our men to the battlefield. In the past they have shown that they have proven themselves to be a lot of chain drivers and we advise them not to let a southern man command them. When you join a voluntary army be led by some of our own race and not southern officers, and not the north who treat you like humans and not southerners, who treat you like slaves. --- Must Have a Place in School (From the Chicago Defender) (From the Chicago Detender) Our naval training camp has every nationality under the sun. As a red flag to flout into the face of the bull, we have Chinamen out there, the Filipino out there, the Greek out there, the Hebrew out there, the Italian out there, and God himself only knows what else out there, but we do know that if we are anywhere near there we are near the bathroom with a mop and broom. Space must be made for the boy of the Colored race in the school for which we are paying taxes. Worse to Ask for Jim Crow. (From the Cleveland Gazette) We agree with the editor of the N.Y. News: It is bad enough to have segregated (on) military training camps FORCED on by the government, but infinitely worse to ASK for them. COLORED COMFORT COMMITTEE. To Raise Two Million Dollars for the Relief of Colored Soldiers and The Dependent's Washington, D. C., Nov. 5th, 1917—A National Organization — The Colored Comfort Committee, was affected here last week to raise Two Millions of Dollars for the relief of the colored soldiers and their dependents. Prof. Kelly Miller, dean of Howard University, was chosen president, J. C. Napier former registrar of the treasury, Tenn, treasurer, and Ralph W. Tyley, national auditor of the Navy, national security officer. A board of directors was chosen on behalf of a representative from every state. National Board of Directors consists of the following: Wm. H. Lewis, Baston Mass.; James H. Johnson, New York, N. Y.; Mary C. Talbert, Buffalo, N. Y.; Mary M. Winton, Philadelphia, Pa.; Wm. J. Boyless, Pittsburgh, Pa.; George A. Myers, Cleveland, Ohio; Dr. Clinton Barnett, Remington, W. Va.; Dr. Burmner A. Furnace, Indianapolis, Ind.; Maj. R. R. Jackson, Chicago, Mo.; Noah D. Thompson, Los Angeles, Cal.; Dr. Richard Cole, St. Louis, Mo.; Mo.; Wright, Topeka, Kan.; T. J. Elliott, Topeka, R. E. Church, Memphis, Tenn.; Phil H. Brown, Hopkinsville, Ky; Bishop George W. Clinton, Charlotte, N. C.; John Mitchell, Jr., Richmond, Va; Chas. Banks, Mound Bayon, Miss.; Perry W. Howard, Jackson, Miss.; Chas. R. Anderson, Jacksonville, Fla.; Dr. J. B. Levy, Florence, S. C.; L. B. L Smith, Waco, Tex.; C. N. Love, Houston, Tex.; Dr. Earnest Lyons, Baltimore, Md.; Bishop I. N. Ross, Washington, D.C.; C. D. Cromond Scott, Washington, D. C.; Dr. Robert E. Jones, New Orleans, La.; Victor H. Tulane, Morgany, Alabama; Dr. Samuel Elbert, Wilmington, Del.; Ben, Davis, Atlanta, Ga.; and W. T. Francis, St. Paul, Atlanta. The plan of the organization is to establish local committees in each city and to start immediately to raise the fund stipulated. The mep who suggested the movement felt that while various white organizations were systematically raising funds for their soldiers and dependents, it was time and appropriate that the race was manifesting an interest in the more than 60,000 colored soldiers that have been called to the colors, and to the dependents of these men. Movie pictures, with an especially written scenario, and an all colored cast, is to play an important part in the raising of the $2,000,000.00. Colored men from various parts of the country have sent telegrams commending the movement. THE COLORED DIVISION. Plans Completed by War Department for Special Division. Washington. — Following the announcement of the selection of the Brigadier General C. C. Ballou as commanding officer of the colored division of the national army which is to be organized, the War Department today announced the appointment of regimental commanders for four infantries, three artillery and one engineer units to comprise the division. Colonels of the regular army have been selected for regiment commanders. The formation of the regiments and their commands are as follows: Infantry Regiments, from Rockford, III; Des Moines, Iowa; Yaphank, N. I.; and Annapolis Junction—Colonels Verne, Caldwell, Ross L. Rush, James A. Moss and W. P. Jackson. Three Flight Artillery Regiments, Wrightstown, N. J.; and Annapolis Junction—Colonels Dan T. Moore, Fred T. Auston and William E. Cole, Engineers, Chillicothe, O.—Colonel E. I. Brown. The War Department will furnish white officers above the rank of captain to officer the division Colored Legislator in N. Y New York, Nov. 7.—The distinction of being the first colored assemblyman in this state falls to Edward A. Johnson, lawyer and real estate broker. He was elected in the Nineteenth assembly district on the Republican-hitter defeating his Tammany opponent, 23 votes. Many of the colored people are not particularly pleased because Johnson is said to hold some jimcrow ideas. PREPARE FOR WINTER.

The rolling spirit of Hallow'een was ever in the air and the big crowd had a big time. The costumes were gorgeous, great, grand. Clowns cap and black cat buttons were worn by those who were not otherwise masked. Everybody was happy. The first prize for a fancy dress (a sack of flour) was won by Mrs. E. Jones, 525 Van Buren St. The second (a bushel of potatoes) was won by Mrs. Frances Bromley, 95 W. Central ave. The first prize for comic dress (a sack of flour) was won by Benjamin Stewart, 464 Arundel st. (a bushel of potatoes) was won by Mr. John H. Charleston, 635 University ave. Murray's augmented, syncopeted Orchestra furnished splendid music. The members of Fraternal Committee made everybody welcome and maintained their reputation as ideal and leading entertainment promoters. Look for their next dance, Friday, December 14th, at which time the dancing public will share most of, if not all of the profits. The prizes to be awarded at this ball will amount to $40.00, the first prize being a pair of ladies' shoes valued at $11.00. Prizes will be awarded in many novel ways and to almost every fairly good dancer. The said Committee of which Ira S. Ashe is chairman and Orrie C. Hall, secretary, actually desires to make a "Dancer's Benefit" ball in appreciation for the public's loyalty to the Hallow'een affair as well as the Famous Song Dance of last year.

MINNEAPOLIS THE BELL TELEPHONE SYSTEM. And the Second Liberty Loan. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company and its Associated Companies forming the Bell Telephone System have announced a subscription in behalf of themselves and their employees for $5,000,000 of the Second Liberty Loan. This subscription is to be allotted to localities or sections of the country as nearly as possible in proportion to the quotas assigned by the Treas- AMERICAN TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH CO. LOCAL LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE BELL SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED COMPANIES ury Department to the various federal reserve districts, so that each such district will get credit for its proportionate share of the 'total sum. The actual subscription will be made in each federal reserve district by the Associated Bell Company operating in such district. The Bell Telephone System also subscribed $5,000,000 to the First Liberty Loan, but owing to the over-subscription on that issue only a part of it was accepted. Arrangements have been made whereby employees of the Bell System may subscribe for Liberty Loan bonds and pay for them on installments during the coming year. FEDERAL REVENUE TAX. From and after November 1, 1917, under the provisions of the Revenue Bill passed by Congress and approved October 3, 1917, each message or conversation transmitted over any telephone for which the charge of fifteen cents or more, is subject to a tax of five cents. The law requires the telephone company to collect this tax from the person paying for such message or conversation, in addition to the regular charge therefor. The law applies not only to all messages on which the initial rate is fifteen cents or more per message, but to all messages on which the total charge including overtime, amounts to fifteen cents. Thus, while a call at the initial rate of five or ten cents bears no tax, should the conversation be prolonged for a period which would make the aggregate charge fifteen cents or more, it is subject to the tax of five cents. UNITED STATES POST OFFICE. Effective 12:01 A. M. November 2, 1917, rates of postage increase: Letters going out of the city, 3 cents Letters going out of the city, 3 cents per ounce or fraction thereof.

KEEP UP HOME EFFICIENCY The Nation is being put to a supreme test. It requires the best of every man and woman in America. Efficient citizens are made by efficient homes. It is a patriotic duty, therefore, at this time, to keep the home and the home life up to the highest point of efficiency. No home can do its best without a piano. You need it for the education of the children. You need it for the family life, to keep up good cheer, to make home really home. You need it that you may sing the nation's songs, thereby to keep burning the fires of patriotism. Can you imagine a patriotic people without the inspiration of patriotic music? Be sure to have music in your home, for your family's sake and for the sake of your country. We sell standard pianos on terms of from $5 to $10 a month. DYER'S MUSIC HOUSE SANT MARIA MARTIN H. HENSE.
