THE KAISER AS A BUSINESS MAN.
Over in Germany the government
owns 97 per cent of the railways. If
the kaiser and some of his friends de-
cide it would be more profitable for
them to have a certain district raise,
say sugar beets instead of wheat, the
rates for shipping grain are placed so
high the farmer has to grow beets at
a loss to enrich the German sugar
trust in which the kaiser and his
friends have invested some of their
millions. Soldiers in France and
Liberty bonds at home will keep all
that in Germany.
THANK GOD!
The commission on union of the
Presbyterian Church North and the
Presbyterian Church South failed to
agree on a plan for the proposed
merger of the two great church
bodies at the final session of this joint
conference at Atlantic City. Thank
God that the North would not agree
to the color line proposals of the in-
famus Souhern branch which would
have dragged Christianity in the mire.
CENSUS PLUM CAKE.
‘The 1920 Census Bill provides for
a staff of 92,000 employes to take
the census. Conforming to the
policy of the administration with re-
spect to partisan appointments they
will all be Democrats. This is added
evidence that the army will be re-
cruited from the ranks of the Repub-
Means. The party out of power and
spurned by the President is the party
which has made possible this draft
law and which is furnishing by far
the greater percentage of the fight-
ing force. Milton has a verse “On
His Blindness” which may be aptly
applied to both parties:
To the Republicans—
“Thousands at shis bidding speed,
And post o’er land and ocean with-
out rest.”
And as to Democrats—
“They also serve who only stand and
wait.”
Except that the Republicans wait
for the ships, whilst the famished
Democrats walt at the political pie
counter. Safe fpr Democrats!

Disregards Petition Sent by Porto Rican House and Senate
‘to U. 8. Congress—Shameful Treatment of Those
Recently Forced Into U. 8. Citizenship.
Feapondent From Europe.)
(From the Boston Guardian.)
San Juan, P. R.—A flame of indigna.
tion swept’ through the length and
breadth of the Island of Porto Rico on
being told that the United States time
odious custom of racial separation in
the army would be put in practice upon
them.
A petition in the form of a resolu.
tion was introduced in the house of
Tepresentatives by Mr. Manuel F,
Rossy, one of the white members, set:
ting forth in detail and eloquence the
injustice and inhumanity of forcing
discrimination on a country wherein
it was hitherto unknown. The resolu
tion was not only adopted unani
mously by the lower house but passed
the senate without a single dissenting
vote.
Petition Ignored.
The resolution was presented t
President Wilson and it was ignored

SOLDIERS OUGHT TO INSURE.
Congress has enacted what is know
as the War Insurance Law which pro-
vides, for a small sum, a war risk up
to a limit of $10,000 and every soldier
and sailor should carry this insurance.
‘The cost is so small that it never
would be missed from the monthly
pay.
Under this law, every soldier now
in the services, commissioned, enlisted
or drafted, no matter what his age,
has the right between now and April
12, 1918, to take out life and total
disability insurance up to $10,000 at
tow cost, and, what is very important,
‘without medical examination. ‘Those
hereafter enlisted or drafted may
take out War Risk Insurance within
120 days after enlistment.
/_ In ease of the soldier's death, each
$1,000 of War Risk Insurance will pay
‘his beneficiary $5.75 per month for
erenty years. War Risk Insurance
holds good after the war.
This is'a great opportunity and all
friends and relatives of colored sol:
diers should write and urge them to
insure now before it is too late.
Application blanks and. full infor-
mation about War Risk Insurance may
be procured by any soldier from the
‘Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Wash.

Pressure has been brought by “ne-
Broes” so the wires tell us, to have a
“negro” adviser appointed to tell the
Department of Labor what ought to
be done along “negro” labor lines. Sec
retary Wilson has announced that a
“negro” ‘will not be selected as a
permanent representative but promi-
nent colored mer will be consulted.
Secretary Wilson has the right idea.
No patriotic colored American wishes
a jlmcrow representative. It would be
all right to appoint a colored man as
an assistant secretary of labor but to
appoint a “negro” adviser and confine
him to jimcrow duties would be segre-
gation in its worst form.
“Negroes” who are asking for segre-
gated places in the department of the
government are doing the colored peo-
ple a great wrong. Any man who
would accept such an appointment,
would necessarily be a jimcrow man

Introduced by Native Leader.
Representative Mr. Manuel Rossy,
who introduced the resolution is the
leader of the republican minority in
the lower house. In studied and tel-
ling language Mr. Rossy presented the
Teasons why Porto Rico objected to
divisions in the army, based on color
ines. |
Porto Rico has long been celebrat-
ed for the unity of the races there,
Members of the darker race are in
every branch of industrial and civil
if. The largest department store
in San Juan, the capitol, is owned by a
colored man. ‘The senior member of
the Senate, who has held his seat by
four consecutive appointments by the
United States and by an open election,

sponding to our circuit-judge and hav-
ing under his jurisdiction the me-
tropolis of Porto Rico, San Juan, is a
colored man. ‘The commissioner of
trades and labor is a colored man.
The mayors of numerous towns of
Porto Rico are colored men.
jand he would do his country great
harm in bolstering up the color line.

‘the government as Americans, not as
| “negroes.”

ALL AMERICAN SOLDIERS,
A strange condition seems to have
arisen.
What does it mean?
Let us have light,
Dr. Gulick, secretary of the commis-
sion on relations with the orient of the
Federal Council of Churches said in
Boston recently:
“America should abandon its humil-
fating and discriminating treatment of
Japanese and Chinese in this country,”
he said, “and adopt an oriental policy
fitted to hold those people permanently
to friendly relations with the demo
cratic nations of the west.”
Dear Doctor G. would it not be wel
for America to begin right here at
home and “abandon its humiliating
and discriminatory treatment” of its
own colored citizens? How about it
dear doctor.
A commission appointed by the
Bishops’ Council of the A. M. EB
Church to make representation against
discrimination against the colored peo
ple in this country ‘was received by
President Wilson. The delegatior
left a written document. ‘The
response of the President wa:
guarded.
| Oswald Garrison Villard, president
of the New York Evening Post com-
pany, and treasurer of the N. A. A.
C. P,, has been, elected chairman of the
American Union Against Militarism,
which has been reorganized to oppose
the adoption of universal military
training in this country.
[Amos Pinchot has been made vice
chairman and Crystal Eastman, who
remains on the executive committee.
"Announcement of the reorganiza-
tion has been made, together with the
statement that the union will direct a
fight against the universal military
training bill now pending in congress.
It was stated that the union is “not a
typically pacifist organization, as it
will not oppose the present war, but
only legislation looking to military
training after the war.”
What constitutes a non-essential is
largely a question for each person to
decide for himself. Anything you can
do without and still maintain your ef-
ficiency, is a non-esseptial at a time
when the government needs the money
you could thereby invest in Thrift
Stamps.
‘The central department of the Y. M.
C. A. of Chicago has just celebrated its
twenty-fifth anniversary although it
has little cause to crow’ over its un-
christian doings. Its specialty has
been jimerow work done in the name
of the Lord.

‘The recent organized National Party
‘came out squarely against disfranchise-
‘ment of the colored man in the South
and for the granting of the franchise
to the citizens of the District of
Columbia.
Senator Ben Pitchfork Tillman says
he will run-again““‘to aid the United
States in the war.” Ben has done so
many thing against his country it is
well that he should at last be willing
to aid it.

IN CROSSING THE BUSY STREET.
If pedestrians would follow a simple
rule they could always avoid being
struck by vehicles, Magistrate House
declared in the traffic court recently.
in issuing his seventeenth safety bul

“Pedestrians should bear in mind
that when they start to cross a street,
no matter from which side, the traf
fic always approaches them from the
lett,
_,"When they reach the middle of the
street It approaches them from the
right.
_, Before stepping from the sidewalk
always look to the left.

LIBRARIAN OF ST. PAUL PUBLIC
LIBRARY.
Specially Invites the St. Paul Branch
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People to
Hold a Reception at the Library.
|, The reception tendered the St. Paul
branch of the N. A. A. C. P., Friday
night, March 22, by the St. Paul pub-
lic Mbrary was an unusual and splendid
affair. To many who were not ac-
quainted with Dr. Dawson Johnston,
Ubrarian, and at whose suggestion the
invitation was extended to our people,
It was an excellent opportunity to
meet and to know such an admirable
gentlemen. Dr. Johnston is indeed
Well qualified for the position and is
sincerely anxious to make the St. Paul
public library the most thorough and
effective institution of the kind in the
United States. His persongl know!-
edge of books on the colored people
and their authors is marvelous and in
his address he displayed true chris-
tian, human sympathy for the color-
ed man and appreciation of the worth
of his literary efforts. He paid a
glowing tribute to Washington, Doug-
lass and DuBois, and spoke most feel-
ingly of his personal acquaintance with
Mr. Daniel Murray, of the Congres-
sional library at ‘Washington. — Dr.
Johnston personally conducted a tour
of the entire building explaining in de-
tail the purposes of each department,
the system of the institution and the
various beauties and art features of
the building. All present voted the
evening one of great profit to them
and a large number made application
for library cards with the view of a
more extended use of the advantages
offered by the library. Dr. Turner was
master of ceremonies and Attorney
W. T. Francis responded on behalf of
the colored people of St. Paul voicing
their appreciation of the consideration
and courtesy shown them.
Attorney Francis said in part:
Mr. Chairman, Dr. Johnston, Ladies
and Gentlemen:’ We are here tonight
upon the invitation of the Public Li-
brary extended by Dr. Dawson John-
ston, lbrarian, fo¥ the purpose of ure.
ing us as a people to use the facilities
of the public library to the fullest ex-
tent and to be conducted through this
magnificent building in order that we
may more ‘fully acquaint ourselves
with the advantages it offers. We ap-

| Preciate sincerely the consideration
and courtesy shown us in this matter
[and T'teet it my duty at this time to
admit that many of our people have
not heretofore ‘enjoyed the benefits
offered by the brary, but their failure
to do so was not caused by careless:
ness or lack of appreciation of the ed-
ucational and literary advantages of-
fered ‘but arose out of timidity born
of humiliation suffered at the hands
of the management of other public in-
stitutions in St. Paul.
Some years ‘ago we, enjoyed the
pleasure ‘of membershiy in the Y. M.
C.A. We had the honor of being on
its basketball, its indoor baseball
and track teams, and various members
of our race represented the organiza-
tion in its fleld day exercises and con-
tests with the sister organization in
Minneapolis. When the new building
was proposed and contributions sol-
cited from the public, we as individu-
als and in our organizations, gave of
our means for the purpose of bearing
the cost of the new building. When,
however, the new building was com:
pleted we were informed that our
membership would be discontinued
and that our presence at the new quar-
ters was undesirable. When the
Wilder Baths were opened in St. Paul,
although the money through which
that Institution found its being was
contributed from a fund, the donor of
which had provided in his will should
be used for the worthy poor of St.
Paul, we were denied the pleasure
and use of those baths,
‘This country and its European allies
are engaged in a titanic struggle to
|make the world safe for democracy.
Thousands of colored boys have been
called from thefr homes in the South
to the training camps to prepare for
the journey across the sea to fight
in the trenches in “no man’s land.”
When they left their homes they had
to wait in dark and dingy separate
colored waiting rooms to board jim
crow cars, and as they whirl through
the state ‘of Tennesce I fancy I can
see the picture arising before their
mind’s eye of the recent horrible burn-
ing at the stake of one of the mem:
bers of tie race; as they rode through
the states of Mississippi, Alabama,
Georgia and Louisiana, I believe they
saw In retrospect the pictures of
colored men and women ahd children
|1ynched by unlawful mobs. After they
jhad reached the camp and especially
at Houston, Texas, and “while wearing
the uniform of the American Army,
and as they passed along the streets
of Houston by the public parks, I feel
with them the humiliation they sut-
fered when their eyes rested upon
the signs at the entrance to the park
“Negroes not allowed.”
| _ A few days ago In the great city of
|New York in its laudable purpose to
celebrate the birthday of our first

| we delight to honor as “the father of
jour country,” plans had been made for
jthe parading of ten thousands of

The pleasure of personal marketing far outweighs any inconvenience,
and the saving enjoyed here is well worth while. A visit to the big Pub.
lic Market is always a help to the housewife, for it enables her to see just
what the market affords and offers her many new ideas to relieve the
monotony of the meals. A new food, a fresh vegetable, a delicious fruit,
a salad dressing, a juicy steak or roast, a dainty cake, or something out
of season might be just what will appeal to her. Or one of the many
demonstrations always in progress might suggest a dainty dish or a new
way to save or conserve. Besides, the satisfaction of pers6nal selection
repays every effort.

thought that they should not be represented in the honors given to the soldiers while in this country after they had trained for service abroad, demanded that some of the colored soldiers from the same training camp whence came the whites be permitted to follow the flag on Broadway. After they through the bean upon municipal, city and government officials it was determined that one battalion, 600 colored soldiers should be in the line, provided, that the colored citizens of the city of New York should furnish the food for the colored citizens on the day of the parade. Undaunted by this unusual provision, they were equal to the emergency and met the condition and through their efforts the city were made glad by the sight of 600 real, simon pure, hundred per cent United States American patriots in that great celebration.
The deeds of the American colored men in the wars in which this country has been engaged furnishes some of the brightest pages of American history and no greater loyalty upon the battlefields of France, and no nobler deeds of valor in the front line trenches will be done by any soldiers, and no man will die with a brighter smile on his face in sacrificing his life for the principals of democracy than will the colored man. This race segregation and discrimination is caused by the viper prejudice which has spread it virus from South to North, East and West but we are praying that vigil, church, press and all right thinking, people will cry, aloud and spare not until this crime against God and humanity is destroyed from the earth.
