SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1919. COWARDLY BISHOP REBUKED. We reprint from the Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. Harry C. Smith, a stalwart and outspoken champion of the colored people, the following rebuke to cowardly colored bishop: BISHOP PHILLIPS WRONG While there is much in Bishop C. H. Phillips' pacifist interview of last Sunday, in the Cleveland News-Leader, to interest the 'average reader, there is one statement to which all of the intelligent members of our race will take issue and that is his statement that "the Afro-American does not desire social, political or industrial equality." That is not true, bishop! In this section of the country we want and, in a limited degree, enjoy all three. In the South, our people are asking the last two. "Social equality" is a myth. It does not exist among any class (race) of Americans. It is a matter for the individual to settle and he alone settles it in all cases. And many white and colored individuals (families) in this section of the country have long ago settled it to their entire satisfaction and are enjoying the so-called "social equality," and will continue to do so until "the end of the chapter" regardless of the ranting of the southerner if not both and the laws of the political equality, the fundamental law of the land guarantees the latter if not both and the laws of the states are in most cases explicit when it comes to the former. Not only does this race of ours desire them but it demands them and will never rest until they are conceded in every nook and corner of this country of ours. The Afro-American wants and must have everything good every other class (race) enjoys in this country if he is to keep abreast of the times and be able to cope with them in the great struggle of life. In this section of the country, at least, we can stand up and say so—tell the plain unvarnished truth and should do so. That it is not advisable for the good bishop to do so because of his residence in the South and because of the large church interests there he represents, we can understand. However, good bishop, please refrain from giving out such interviews here in the North where they do no good but on WANTED, A SAMARITAN. Prone in the road he lay. Wounded and sore bestead: Priests, Levites past that way, And turned aside the head. They were not hardened men In human service slack: His need was great: but then His face, you see, was black. From the New York Independent. THE LOWDEN COMMISSION. THE APPEAL is not enthusiastic about the Race Problem Commission appointed by Governor Lowden of Illinois. The governor is a very doubtful quantity on the race question and it is possible that he would appoint jim crowists if such a body were named, and its findings would be of no value in the matter. As a matter of fact there is nothing to arbitrate. The colored people are wholly within their rights as citizens. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that segregation is unconstitutional and if a jimcrow commission recommended a plan for "voluntary segregation, it would stand for something illegal. From what we learn the attempt is to be made to get the colored people to agree to their own segregation but we do not believe Illinois colored men will do so. If any attempt is made to segregate the colored people have the whiphand and can prevent any such action by appealing to the courts. "MISTAKEN FOR NEGROES." During the recent race riots in Chicago, about half a hundred, Mexicans, East Indians, Malays, Cubans, Porto Ricans and other peoples of dusky hue were mistaken for "negroes" and either insulted or badly beaten. There was not such great mistakes after all, as the majority of these peoples have a percentage of African blood. On the contrary not less than 20,000 colored Americans, often called "negroes," some as fair as illies went unmolested through the streets of Chicago. It was one of the queer incidents of the riots. The white rioters, with murder in their hearts often could not tell a "negro (?)" when they met him. WOULD BAR FROM ARMY Colored men would be barred from the army and navy under a bill introduced by Representative Carraway (dem.) Arkansas. The bill also provides for the discharge within sixty days of all colored men now in the service and prohibits appointment of colored men to the naval and military academies. Representative Carraway knows that this bill can not be passed, but he wishes to stir up race friction and make a hit with the rough necks of Arkansas. AN INFAMOUS STATEMENT Dr Clarence True Wilson, "general secretary of the board of temperance, prohibition and public morals," of the Methodist Episcopal Church, ought to be very careful in the stuff he hands out to the public for he has just made a statement which is not wholly true and which is an insult to one group of American fighters. On the authority of Deets Pickett, research secretary of the board who has just returned from Europe, the assertion is made that drunkenness, dishonesty, immorality and the association of French women with colored men, are some of the causes for their "dissatisfaction" with France. In another column of this issue of THE APPEAL will be found a letter from a St Paul man who is now a soldier in France (thousands of such letters have been received from colored soldiers), which shows that the alleged "Young Men's CHRISTIAN Association" drew the color line, and colored soldiers were continually insulted by signs reading, "For White Troops Only" THE SIN OF To sin by silence protest makes cow The human race has test. Had no voice be injustice, ignorance quisition yet would guillotines decide a To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. not hardened men service slack: great: but then you see, was black. independent. There is no color line in France or any other European country, not even in Germany. The French people treated the colored Americans as if they were human beings. There was no patronizing. They were treated like men because that is the custom in France. On the contrary the white American soldiers continually insulted and mistreated their colored brothers in arms. To infer that the relations between respecible French women and colored men were immoral is an infamous slur on the French women and an insult to the colored defenders of democracy. It is said that the French demi-mondaines preferred the colored men, and this piqued the white Americans. They did not object to the sin, but the fact that the female sinner was a French woman and the male sinner an American colored man. The averate white American accused to the infamous, abnormal, un-Christian, and really un-American color line, can not grasp the psychology of the French people who not only have no color line but cannot comprehend its meaning. France which gave to the world the Dumas, pere et fils, judges men by merit not by color. France is true to its motto, "Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité." NOT A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY. One Beauregard Moseley of Chicago, a colored man of local prominence presumably in order to be patted on the back and called a "good negro," in an address at a colored meeting during the riots informed his auditors that, "this is a white man's country." He was promptly rebuked and we trust he'll know better next time. No, this is not a "white man's country." It is true that the white man stole it from the Indians, and also stole some colored men who were free in Africa, brought them over here and made them slaves to work the stolen property. Three hundred years of unrequited toil gives the colored man a better title to the land than the white man's. The colored man knows no other land; he speaks the vernacular of the country; he has fought in every war to preserve its integrity; has has always been loyal though deprived of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The colored people of the United States are not aliens; they were all born here. They are Americans and as Americans have their share in our common country. BROKEN HEARTS REPAIRED. Broken hearts are being mended in Russia now—not the hearts shattered by unfortunate romances, but the valvular organs pierced by knives. Time mends the first kind, and the skilled surgeon Zeelder, can be depended on to operate successfully on the knife-torn heart. Dr. Zelder has a little hospital at Obuchow. Thirty-one persons brought to the hospital with hearts pierced and slashed by knife wounds have successfully had their organs repaired and have recovered entirely, to all appearances, from their remarkable experiences. One patient has lived seven years and shows no signs of having been affected by the heart wound and subsequent sewing up. The foregoing statement is going the rounds of the press as something new and remarkable, yet human hearts were repaired more than 20 years ago and it was a colored man, Dr. Daniel H. Williams, the famous surgeon of Chicago, who first successfully operated on the human heart. F SILENCE ce when we should wards out of men. is climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and Atty-General's Riot Remedies EXERCISE OF GOOD COMMON SENSE AND IMPARTIAL PROSECUTIONS ARE THE MAIN POINTS. Segregation Heid Impossible Exercise of justice, reason and good sense between both blacks and whites and impartial prosecution of all offenders offer the only preventive against the recurrence of race rioting, said Attorney General, of Illinois, Edward J Brundage in an address before the Chicago Association of Commerce at Hotel La Salle. Segregation of the races, the attorney general said, is impossible under the constitution of the United States as the law prevents restriction between citizens possessing equal political rights. Accuses Police "I desire to make no criticism of the individual policeman or of any particular commanding officer." Mr. Brundage said. "I do say, however, that it is mighty unfortunate for the future welfare of Chicago that nearly all the persons turned over to the state's attorney for prosecution for the recent riots are those whose skins are colored. It is a reflection upon Chicago that black men could be mobbed in broad daylight in the heart of the business district without a single member of the mob being arrested. Calls Mob Cowardly." "A mob is the most cowardly of all brutal aggregations and a few determined police officers could have made it police for the state's attorney and a jury in the criminal court to have given a wholesome lesson to mob leaders." "A mob shows no discrimination and so innocent colored men were chased by howling mobs through the streets of downtown Chicago—some losing their lives at their hands. "There is nothing new in race prejudice. There has been prejudice between all races and the color of the Negro's skin makes him an easy mark in these outbreaks. "The war apparently awakened a disregard for civil law and order. Men have become dissatisfied and life is being held cheaply. "There is more than a suspicion in the assertion that white men in Chicago have contributed financially to destroy the homes of colored men. No Longer Slaves. "There must be a realization that the colored man is no longer in a state of slavery. A half century has passed since he serfdom and he now is a factor in industrial life. He is acquiring both industrial and property. "He is given, under a constitution of the United States, political rights, and those rights, given him by law, he should be permitted to enjoy. Those who would deny them are lawless, and if the law is to be venerated all laws must be honored. In Illinois the Fourteenth Amendment is going to be recognized "One thing I wish to emphasize and that is the loyalty of the colored man. He has always been true to the Stars and Stripes, and has never joined any organization founded with the intention of destroying our institutions. *Segregation Impossible.* "Segregation has been advocated as a remedy, but if there is any blood and Stripes, and has never joined any organization founded with the intention of destroying our institutions. *Segregation Impossible.* "Segregation has been advocated as a remedy, but if there is any blood and Stripes, and has never joined any organization founded with the intention of destroying our institutions. *Segregation Impossible.* "The final and lasting cure, if there be one, is the exercise of justice, reason and good sense between both colored and white, even though the treatment is prolonged as any procedure dependent upon the individual conscience for fulfillment must necessarily be." "It is only by vigorous and impartial prosecution of all offenders that respect for law is established. Society is not constructed upon the principle that might makes right. Where laws are respected mobs are impossible." FRENCH DEMAND RACE EQUALITY Protest on American Seldiers' Acts to Colored Men. Paris, August—The government was interpelled in the chamber of deputies a few days ago on the rough treatment French colored soldiers are alleged to have received from the American military police in French ports. The questions were asked by M. Boisneuf and M. Lagrosilliere, colored deputies, respectively from Guadeloupe and Martinique. The debate that ensued ended with the unanimous adoption of the following resolution: The chamber, faithful to the imporal principles of the rights of man, committing all prejudices of religion, caste, or race solemnly affirms the absolute justice of all men, without distinction of race or color, and their right to the benefit and protection of all the laws of the country. The chamber counts upon the government to apply these laws and see that the necessary penalties for their infringement are inflicted." Jules Pams, minister of the interior, replying to the colored deputies, said that the government had applied penalties and asked them not to insist upon a discussion of "the very regretable incidents, as France does not forget the services rendered by her colored sons." The minister of the interior added that the American government had not hesitated to express regrets in terms that did France the greatest honor. "High Diplomacy" Problem. M. Pams asked Deputy Boiseunef for reasons of "high diplomacy" to drop the subject. The deputy said he would not speak of questions that involved diplomacy, but he protested against the complicity of the French military authorities in these incidents. He then read a confidential circular to the American army, setting forth how American opinion did not tolerate "familiarity between whites and blacks." "And it is America that wants a society of nations," interjected Charles Bernard, a deputy from the Seine. "The circular wasn't signed by Willson," shouted Deputy Mayeras (Socialist from the Seine) in reply to M. Bernard. THE LATE RACE RIOTS White Woman Writes Her Personal Experiences in Recent Race Troubles in Washington To the Editor of The Nation: Sir: On Tuesday night, when so many in Ledroit Park feared a mob and a general massacre, and when most white men believed that a white woman who ventured into that section would be literally devoured, I took it into my head to go there, and go I did. I went for several reasons. One is to prove that a white woman could be another, because I knew what had been done to the authorities and thought that a little reassurance from a lone and harmed woman might go a good way, for I guessed the probable psychological state in the section. Besides, I wanted to know at first hand what the colored people were doing and thinking. I found out. If I talked to one colored man, I talked to a hundred and fifty. Occasionally I would stop to speak to one I knew; oftener I would accost a group of unknown men and ask them for their weeds. Always and everywhere I met curiosity and attention. As we talked to curiosity and appear from the shadows—seemingly from the night itself—until there were trips twenty of us. Only once did I see a man, who glanced at us curiously, said nothing and passed slowly on. And when we had finished our talk, the group would melt into nothingness and I would proceed on my quest. I saw no women at all. And the men—why, those men were not out to "start something." They were armed, most of them, and were quite frank about it, but they did not want a fight. They said they were out to see if a mob were coming, and, if there were, were going home to barricade themselves when, if the mob tried to get in, there would be trouble. As one put it: "A man would be so less than a man if he didn't fight for his family and his home." Their state of mind was not primarily fight. It was fear, a perfect hysteria of dread lest, as more than one expressed it, "a new East St. Louis" was at hand. And, as with all hysteria, a small occurrence would set them off in a frenzy. Dynamite! They were TNT. Again and again I was asked: "Is a mob going on Pennsylvania Avenue? Will there be a bomb to burn us out? Is the Park cordoned off? Did they not dare go downtown far enough to see if the troops were really there. Over and over, I heard the pathetic question: "Do the white folks care? Does anyone care? Are they really doing anything?" I told them that the best of the whites did care, but that we were helpless. I told them also that measures had really been taken that afternoon and what they were—that there really was military, as well as police, protection. One queer old man worked: "Well, I reckon somebody did, to tell us lady wouldn't come out to tell us." A one-handed soldier said: "I enlisted; I gave the country my hand, and I was ready to give more. When I was in France, I was a man and a soldier, but when I get back here, I'm not a citizen; I'm not a man, even—just a big, black brute." It was not bitterly; it went deeper than bitterness. He spoke like a man with a broken heart. Another said: "They may this is to protect the white women. They were in charge of a whole plantation and a whole white women during the Civil War. They weren't afraid to leave the white women with us then, and colored men are no different now." Many of them expressed a liking for, and confidence in, the captain of the precinct, and, when a man of one race speaks well of a man of another, during a race riot, that means something. But they spoke of the lack of colored police, and of the fact that colored men were being dropped from the force that had been appointed since 1910. "You know me," said, "that we could talk better to colored police. They would reason with the people and not just knock them 'round. They know who the people are and what is going on, and they could stop a lot of trouble without arrests. But they don't want to give us a chance." I saw but one noisy Negro, a half-witted and dishevelled-looking fellow, talking loudly and belligerently. Him men seized and thoroughly shook telltle from the house he would "shut up and get home," he would "tinly find things happening to him. Once an excited colored boy came flying on a bicycle with the news that a white mob had formed inside the cordon and was on its way. "Let's go meet them," said one young hothead. This was at once negatived. "We'll watch and see if they are coming, and if they are, we will go home and lock the doors. That's what Captain Doyle knows what is. So, for a new town, we are peering into the drizzly gloom, not knowing what might after all be about to come. But all was quiet, and we silently drifted on our ways. And thus it went for two hours. I met them—not savages, not red-handed murderers, but citizens, hunted and terrified, looking more or less hopelessly to their Government for aid; human beings craving the hand of brotherhood, and cut to the very heart. I thought of Belgium. I remembered that my country stands abroad for liberty, justice, and the rights of men, though she has them not at home. How blind we are, we Anglo-Saxons, who talk of Freedom and have not yet freed our souls. But still I hope and dimly see a dawn—red, it is true, but still a far-off dawn. A white man once said to me: "You talk like a Negro. You see at times to identify yourself with them. Have you lost your race consciousness?" I replied: "I hope I think enough like them to show you how they feel. I hope I always lose race consciousness when it stands in the way of my consciousness of common humanity." Then he said a queer thing: "I do not know whether you are mad or inspired." I had been thinking of going to Serbia, but I believe my duty is one. I believe that our country needs all of us standing along the color line. I am sure that being possible, to whatever limit. If to whom I look as a leader in this situation, should ever need my services, you have to speak. My soul is afame, not with the glare of the destroying torch, but with the steady, incandescent glow which cannot be extinguished. Washington, July 20. E. G. M. 1 Big Exhibit! Minnesota State Fair and Victory Exposition Aug. 30 to Sept. 6 New Record! THE 1919 exhibit of farm products will break all records at the Minnesota State Fair and Victory Exposition Aug. 30 to Sept. 6 ROBERT R. MOTON. from the Crisis.) Neither R. H. Moton nor W. E. B. Dubois had the slightest idea that the other was planning to sail for France, December 1, until they met in Washington on a boat for passports, November 30. They sailed on the Steamer Orizaba and frankly discussed their agreements and disagreements. When they reached France, each went about his own business. Dr. Moton was sent by the President of the United States and the Secretary of War to see and to colorized soldiers. Dr. Du Bois was sent by the N. A. A. C. P. and the Crisis to gather the historical facts concerning colored troops and to call a Pan-African Congress. On the night before Dr. Moton started out a colored man of national reputation and unquestioned integrity who had been in France six months took him aside and told him frankly the situation: the rampant American crime against colored troops and officers in France, the descent of the victims. Dr. Moton's assessment him every opportunity. A special Army Order preceded him, which read: Dr. R. R. Moton, President of Tuskegee University, will be present in the Divisional area for the next few days. The Division Commander discharges commanding officers render all possible assistance in any visit or inspection Dr. Moton desires to make. They will also see that he is accorded every opportunity to make any observation he may wish to make. What did Dr. Moton do? He rushed around as fast as possible. He took with him and had at his elbow every moment that evil genius of the colored race. Thomas Jesse Jones, a lawyer, Dr. Moton took no time to investigate or forge. He made a few speeches, of which one is reported by a hearer as follows: The address delivered by Dr. Motors to the men consisted of one or two jokes by a colored preacher, the assurance that the people at home were proud of them and the manner in which they should act upon their return to the United States, dwelling almost entirely upon the phrase "Not to be arrogant." After he had spoken to the men the major informed the officers that Dr. Motors desired to hold a secret conference with them. All officers congregated in the office. After being presented to the officers, Dr. Motors stated that he had been sent to France for President Wilson and to France for purpose of speaking to the colored troopers he also stated that he had just left France where he had been in conference with President Wilson and had asked the President his views as to the practical application of democracy toward the colored man in the United States, but ended by saying: "I was very much pleased with his reply but, gentlemen, I cannot quote the President." After Dr. Moton finished his talk no opportunity was given to the officers to inform him of the conditions that had existed in France, and he did not seek any information relative to same from any of the officers after the conference ended. Dr. Moton then returned to Paris and met Colonel House, General Pershing in others, Colonel House told the writer that he urged Dr. Moton to remain in Paris and that if he would, Colonel House would give him an opportunity to appear in person before the Peace Conference to speak the black world. Dr. Moton refused to stay, but promised to return. He then went to England and secured an audience with Lloyd George. Prime THE world's biggest machinery show will be a feature of the great Minister of England. The destiny of the black race today is in the hands of England and the destiny of England is in the hands of Lloyd George. Yet Dr. Moton did not keep his appointment; but rushed to catch his boat in order to be present at the Tuskegee Conference. He sailed with Thomas Jesse Jones still watching him, and did not return to Paris or to the Pan-African Conference, which he said he favored. No one questions the personal integrity of Robert R. Moton or his kindly disposition, but no one friend or foe can look these facts in the face and not feel bitter disappointment. Should Open the Doors to Opportunity 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 individual addressable, but as practicable measures it is that any intelligent person should see to entertain them. Does any one 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 a open a more industrial leadership to their proved needs and usefulness? While we write, we vivify and unloaded by two white men and one colored man. The colored man is the best man. The white men 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. Not "Nigger"—Not "Negro." (Bishop Wilbur Thirkield, in discussion colored American Advocacy in the Southwestern Christian Advocacy, his reply to Irvin S. Cobb, says: "The writer means well, but he does not seem to know what the term 'nigger' that has persisted as a relic of slavery and has in it the sting of liquid fire to every self-respecting Negro, must go." Yes, and The Bee asserts that not only the word "nigger" must go, but the word "Nero." We are American citizens, the same as we, although our skin may be dark. The white man manufactured both terms the Government legalizes them and colored Americans perpetuate them. For God's sake, give both terms a rest. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for distranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one person of one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their descent to Africa, and there is no more right to all a colored people Negroes than to call all people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm.

GO TO SEE HIM The soldiers and sailors who took out government insurance during the world war should, under all circumstances, continue to pay their premiums on their policies, which are better by far than any others they can get. All men who were in the army or navy should at once join the local Post of the American Legion. Go to see Lieut. Hauenstein, 919 Pioneer Building, Fourth and Robert streets, who has been appointed special agent of the Legion for the purpose of helping the men to revive their insurance if they are in arrears or to continue their risks. Lieut. Hauenstein will accord the men the most curious attention if they will call to see our boys should act promptly, for if they delay too long, they will be required to take another medical examination for insurance.

"First National Service" The First N OF ST "The Big Bank for Was a Record Breaker From Every ..Standpoint. The third reception which has been given in honor of our soldier boys at Union Hall, and which was given Thursday evening proved to be the biggest and best. In fact the crowd which filled the building from top to bottom was the largest ever under its roof, and the enjoyment was equal to the crowd. The program included singing by the united choirs of the city under the direction of Mr. C. H. Miller; an excellent address by the master of ceremonies, Atty. W. T. Francis; song, "Over Here," choirs and audience; St. Paul's Welcome," Acting Mayor Henry McColl, Mrs. Mattie Blair, "Our Welcome," Mr. S. Edward Hall; community song, "Welcome," tune Jaja; "What We Did and How." Reg. Sagittarius, Jas. K. Hilyard; community song, "Cheer, Cheer, the Boys are Here." Everything said or done was"just what the doctor ordered" highly enjoyable and timely. The audience was very enthusiastic and jubilant, but with all remarkably good nature and orderly. A blunder on the part of the firm that was to supply the refreshments deprived the people of that portion of the entertainment but the committee by special effort in a measure made amends and did the best it could. On the whole everybody was happy and the occasion will ever be remembered. The patrons and patronesses who supplied the finance were the following: W. T. Francis, Chairman J. Q. Adams F. B. Simpson S. E. Hall Hammond Turner O. D. Howard Sid Cuthbert J. H. Sherwood S. L. Maxwell M. A. Bolling S. L. Ransom J. E. Murphy C. W. Wigzington R. M. Johnson W. B. Walker Geo. N. Lewis W. T.
