THE RACE COMMISSION. THE APPEAL still contends that there is no reason for the existence of the "race commission", appointed by Governor Lowden of Illinois. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided by a unanimous vote that segregation is unlawful, so there is nothing to arbitrate. The editor has talked with several prominent Illinois men this week and the consensus of opinion among them is that the whole thing is a political scheme of Governor Lowden, who is a prospective candidate for president on the Republican ticket in 1920. These men say that since he has been governor of Illinois, Lowden has developed a great prejudice against the colored people. He has taken "jimcrow" colored men into his confidence and his present plan is to get the colored people to consent to their own civil degradation. These Illinois men say that the commission is "packed." The majority of the white men on the same are enemies of the colored people, and the majority of the colored men jimcrowists, that is, men willing to make concessions in their civil rights. THE APPEAL man has been well acquainted with Edward H. Morris, Chicago's famous lawyer, who is one of the commission arti can vouch for him as a man who will not concede anything fundamental. He will fight any attempt at segregation to the last ditch. THE APPEAL is only slightly acquainted with four of the other colored men. One man he has never met. He has often heard three of the colored men described as jimcrow men of the deepest dye. It is said that segregation propositions will be offered by the white members. If such propositions are offered the colored men should stand as a unit against them no matter how trivial they may seem. They must not yield a single point on any question involving segregation of any kind. ASK EQUALITY IN TREATY. William Monroe Trotter of Boston, secretary of the National Equal Rights League, appeared before senate foreign relations committee 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. Thursday representing the organization and asked for two amendments to the Peace Treaty. One provides that in the league of nations covenant the members "vouchsage to their own citizens the possession of full liberty, rights of democracy and protection of life, without restriction or distinction based on race, color, creed or previous conditions." The other adds a similar guarantee as a separate section of the treaty. Such amendments are all right. An amendment to give the United States a mandatory over the Kamerun, a German colony in Africa, was requested by Joseph T. Thomas, a colored man of Cleveland, Ohio, representing the national race congress. American colored men, he said, could be recruited to police the territory under white officers. Such an amendment is all wrong, because the United States has given justice to the colored peoples already within its borders. A petition that all the African colonies taken from Germany be "divided between Egypt, Abyssinia and Liberia" was filed by the League of Darker Peoples of the World. This amendment would be all right if the word Egypt were stricken out. To give any of the colonies to Egypt would be to 'turn them' over to the tender meries of Great Britain which rules Egypt with an iron hand. KEEP COOL! With the great racial excitement now existing all over the country, it is well for colored people to keep cool. No good can come from incendiary talk. It is rank folly to talk about actual, physical fighting to win the contest for justice in the U. S. A. It would be fultile as the colored people have neither wealth nor guns and are outnumbered five to one. Never be the aggressor but defend yourself if wantonly attacked.* The colored people must fight but it must be with the spirit, money and the ballot. Use every legitimate means to create a healthy public opinion and vote for the individual or party guaranteeing protection of life and liberty. WILL DEMAND SATISEACTION. John R. Shillady, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who was brutally assaulted in Austin, Texas, has issued a statement saying action would be taken to obtain satisfaction for the attack made upon him in Austin, when he went there to advance the interests of his organization. He said he will demand congressional and presidential investigation and appeal to Governor Smith to protect the interests of citizens of New York who visit Texas and to take legal action against the persons who attacked Mr. Shillady. BUSINESS MEN'S MISTAKE The colored business men's league at St. Louis made a great mistake in electing Robert R. Moton as president of their organization. Moton is not a business man, knows nothing whatever of business and very little of anything else. The clique which maneuvered his election was simply working to impose the sinister power of Tuskegee on colored business men. Moton is not even qualified to be the principal of Tuskegee, because he lacks an important quality which every leader should possess—manhood. When his wife was ejected from a 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 chanter." THE SIN OF SILENCE 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. Pullman car a few years ago he proced- tically intimated that it served her right, as he had warned her to "res- pect the traditions of the South." Imagine a man who will not protect his own wife, as the head of an institution organized "for the training of colored youth!" It seems that the best means for promoting the welfare of the colored people would be the scattering of colored families all over the country. In communities where there are only a few families there seems to be little or no friction. Trouble seems to be caused by the coming of the masses. An example of this is right here in Minnesota in the town of Bemidji, where there are not more than a dozen colored people. Charles W. Scratchin a colored man of African ancestry is the leading lawyer, having a good paying practice, his clientele being all white. He has the respect of the entire population and is received everywhere with the same cordial welcome that is given the whitest man in town. There is no race problem in Bemidji. 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, 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 unrequiled tilt gave 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. COWARDLY BISHOP REBNIKED 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 about 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 show." ONE WAY OUT. regardless of the ranting of 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 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 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 the contrary have an effect that retards the progress of those of the race in this section of the 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 Zelder, 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. "NEGRESS" IS: NAUSEATING The following from the Chicago tribune is a manly protest against the use of a word which is particularly offensive to colored women. OBJECTS TO "NEGRESS." Chicago—(Editor of the Tribune.) in two recent issues you published very fine and highly commendatory editors on "Race Progress and Common Sense," yet, notwithstanding that, yesterday you state in glaring headlines the "Death of Mine, Walker, Wealthiest Negress." That word "Negress" is nauseating in the eyesight of all colored women and should be eliminated from the vocabulary, in which it has no rightful place. Above all, your paper should be the leader on this regard, if you really have the welfare of the colored race at heart. SAMUEL Z. C. WESTERFIELD. The colored men who persist in using "negro" as a race designation are largely to blame for the common use of a word which should be avoided. The colored people of the United States are Americans—that's all. The use of "negro" and "negress" is the cause of many discriminations against the colored people. The word "negress" is nauseating, and so is the word "nogress" when used as a racial designation for the colored people of the United States. FRENCH DEMAND RACE EQUALITY Protest on American Soldiers Acts to Colored Men. Paris, August—The government was interpolated 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. In a letter to M. Boisneuf and M. Lagrosiliste, deputies, respectively from Guadeloupe and Martinique. The debate that ensued ended with the unanimous adoption of the following resolution: "The chamber, faithful to the imminent death of the rights of an, condemning all prejudices of religious caste, or race, solemnly affirms the absolute equality 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 apprehend and see that the necessary penalties for their infringement are inflicted." Expects an Apology. 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 Boineau 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 question. The French government portrays in these images He then read a confidential circular to French officers attached to the American army, setting forth how American opinion did not tolerate rivalry 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 Wilson," shouted Deputy Meyers (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 (From The Nation, New York) To the Editor of the Nation **Edoror of the Nation:** Sir: In light of the night, when so many in Ledbrook Park did 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 would prove that several reasons. One was to prove that a woman could do it; another, because I what had been done by the authorities and thought that a little reassurance from a lone and harmless woman might go a good way, for I guessed the psychological state in that section. I wanted to know at first hand what the women 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 uninterested and ask them for their views. Always I met with courtesy and attention. I talked, men would appear from the shadows—seemingly from the night itself—until there were perhaps twenty of us. Only once did I see a police who glanced at us curiously, but said, "You were finished on the task. And when we had finished on the task the group would melt into nothingness and I would proceed on my quest. 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, and the lack of colored police, and of the face men were being dropped from the force and that none had been appointed since 1910. "You know," they said, "that we could talk better to colored police. They would reason with the people and not just knock them round, what is going on, and they could stop a lot of trouble-with 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 shook, seized and thoroughly shook, telling it up and get home," he would certainly 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 and see if they are coming, and if they are, we will go home and lock the doors. That's what Captain Doyle said, and he knows what's what." So, for a few tense moments, we stood in the doorway, not knowing what might later all about to come. But all was quiet, and we stiltly drilled 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 the sake of their brotherhood 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 Justice, and 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 seem at times to identify yourself with them. Have you lost your race consciousness?" I said, "I have lost 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." I said, "I don't know whether you are mad or inspired." I had been thinking of going to Serbia, but I believe my duty is here. I believe that our country needs all of us who are standing along the border in many ways, possible, to whatever limit. If you, to whom I look as a leader in this situation, should ever need my services, you have to speak. My soul is atame, not with the glove of the deaf, not with the hand of the blind, incandescent glow which cannot be extinguished. Washington, July 20. E. G. M.

URGES FULL CO-OPERATION Gov. Frank O. Lowden of Illinois has announced the appointment of a commission of twelve professional and business men to make a study of race relationships and report on the recent incidents in Chicago. The commission. The members of the commission are: Edgar A. Carbroft, Julus Rosenwald, Victor F. Lawson, Edward Goodburn, Harry Hugene Kelly, William Scott Bond, Dr. Geo. C. Hall, Edward H. Morris, Robert S. Abbott, H. Robert George H. Jackson, Rev. William Willis. The six last names are colored men. Mr. Bancroft is chairman of the commission, which will begin its investigations as soon as some of the investigations return from their vacations, probably within a week or two. Requests. In making public the names of his appointees, the governor issued the following statement: "I have been requested by many citizens and by many civic organizations in Chicago to appoint a commission to race riots in Chicago upon the recent race riots in Chicago upon the broad question of the relations between the two races. "Those riots were the work of the worst element of both races. They did not create the most great, the whelming majority of ether race. The two races are here and will remain here. The great majority of each realizes the necessity of their living upon terms of cordial good-will and mutual understanding that condition must be brought about." Must Solve Problem. "To say that we can not solve this problem is to confess the failure of self-government. I offer no solution of the problem. I do know, however, that the question can not be answered by me, but do know that every time that men are ordered, take the law into their own hands, instead of helping they only postpone the settlement of the question. When we admit the existence of a problem and courageously face it, we have gone halfway toward its solution. "I have with the utmost care, in response to the requests above set forth, appointed a commission to undertake this great work. I have sought only the most representative men of the two races. I have not asked them whether they had views as to how the question could be met. Urges Spirit of Fairness "I have asked them only to approach the difficult subject with an open mind and in a spirit of fairness. I have asked that that has been constituted to get the facts and interpret them and to find a way out. I believe that great good work out of the work of this commission. "I ask that our people, white and VICTO Minnesota State and Victory Exp Aug. 30 to S VICTORS!

SEP. 23. The Organization That Got a Delegate to Paris in State of Government Ban, to Meet at Washington, D. C., for Three Days. Washington, D. C., August, 1919.—Following the meeting of the local branch in the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church which heard the details of the remarkable exploit of Delegate William Trotter of the League in outwitting the State Department by carrying the cause of the race to the Peace Conference, Executive Officers of this organization, headed by Rev. Byron McCormick, who is Chairman, held a two days' session. The result was the decision to hold the 12th Annual Meeting of the National Equal Rights League at Washington, September 23rd to 25th, 1919. One of the features will be the Colored Race and the Peace Conference, in connection with a full report by Delegate Trotter. "Full Democracy Now" the slogan "Every existing branch league every individual formed prior to Sept. 25 is eligible to delegate, also all bodies which sent delegates to the World Democracy Congress conducted by the League. NEWS FROM OVER THERE Paris, France, Aug. 7, 1919.—After sixteen months from my home and family and one year in Europe, it is expected that by August 25 my discharge will be given to me in New York City. The last appointment given to a colored secretary by the Paris office was given to me yesterday. The last party of twenty colored secretaries was placed in my charge; it is the most signal recognition I have received to be placed in charge of such a learned, strong and big minded group of Christian men and women. Among them are: A. W. Schockley, J. H. Scroggins, Wm. Stevenson, C. H. Williamson, M. R. Atwell, Mrs. Mary Talbert, Mrs. Helen Curtis, Mrs. Florence C. Williams, Miss Katherine Johnson, Miss Aletha Rochon, Mrs. Madeline Childs, Miss N. F. Brown, Mrs. Addie W. Hunton. The hope is that we will sail from Boulongue Saturday. All are well and in fine spirits and ready to go home. We did not come back till it is over, over here. Best greetings to all friends. Best greetings to all friends and readers of THE APPEAL. 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 bettied to their health, they can get. All men who were wounded 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 help in their insurance if they are in arrests their risks. Lieut. Hauenstein will accord the men the most courteous attention if they will call to see him. Our boys should act promptly, for if they delay too long, they will be required to take another medical examination for insurance. DO IT NOW! VEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS. IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL.
