“TATURDAY, AUGUST 80, 1919.
CRE Rik Soin
THD APREAL 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, 60 there is
nothing to arbitrate
‘The editor has talked with several
prominent Illinois men this week and
the consensus of opinion among them
{s that the whole thing is a politica
scheme of Governor Lowden, who is
& prospective candidate tor president
fon the Republican ticket in 1920.
‘These men say that since he has
been governor of IIlinofs, Lowden has
developed a great prejudice against
the colored people, He has taken
“jimerow” colored men into his con:
fidence and his present plan is to
et the colored people to consent to
their own civil degradation.
These Ilinois men say that the
commission is “packed.” The ma-
Jority of the white men on the same
fare enemies of the colored people,
tnd the majority of the colored men
imerowists, that is, men willing to
make concessions In their civil rights.
. THE APPEAL man has been well
acquainted with Baward H. Morris,
Chicago's famous lawyer, who is one
of the commission ar! can vouch
for him as a man who will not con:
code anything fundamental. He will
fight any attempt at segregation to
the last ditch,
THE APPEAL is only slightly. ac-
‘uainted- with four of the ‘other col
ored men, One man he has never met.
He has often heard three of the col
ored men described as jimerow men
of the deepest dye.
It is said that segregation propos
tions 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 iust not
yield a single point on any question
involving segregation of any kind.

rights of democracy and protection of
life, without restriction or distinction
based on race, color, creed or previ

‘The other adds a similar guarantee

‘Such amendments are all right.
An amendment to give the United
States a mandatory over the Kam.

requested by Joseph T. Thomas, a
colored man of Cleveland, Ohio, rep-
resenting 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 col
onies taken from Germany be “di
vided between Egypt, Abyssinia and
Liberia” was filed by the, League of
Darker Peoples of the World.
‘This amendment would be all right

‘To give any of the colonies to Egypt
would be to turn them over to the
tender mercies of Great Britain which
rules Egypt with an fron 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 futile 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.”

it must be with the spirit, money and
the ballot. Use every legitimate

John R. Shillady, secretary. of the
National Association for the Advance-
ment 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 ad-
vance the intereste of his organiza-
tion, He said he will demand con-
gressional and presidential investiga-
tion 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 mans knows
nothing whatever of business and
very little of anything else. The
elicque 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—man-
hood.

THE SIN OF SILENCE
To sin by silence when we should
protest makes cowards out of men.
The human race has climbed on pro-
test. Had no voice been raised against
injustice, ignorance and, lust, the in-
quisition 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 prac:
tically intimated that it served’ her
right, as he had warned her to “re-
spect the traditions of the South.”
Imagine a man who will not protect
his own wife, as the head of an in-
stitution organized. “for the training
ot colored youth!”
ONE WAY OUT.
It-seems that the best means for
promoting the welfare of the olored
‘People would be the scattering of col-
red families all over the country.
In communities where there are only
1 few families there seems to be lit:

be caused by the coming of the
masses.

the back and called a “good negro,”

ing 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 coun-
try.” It fs 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 un-

COWARDLY BISHOP REBUKED.
We reprint from the Cleveland Ga-
zette, edited by Hon. Harry C, Smith,
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-Lea.
der, to interest the average reader,
there is one statement to which about
all of the intelligent members of our
Face will take issue and that is his
statement that “the Afro-American
does not desire social, political or, in-
dustrial equality.” That is not true,
bishop! In this section of the coun-
try we want and, in a Hmited degrée,
enjoy all three. In the South, our
People are asking the last two, “So-
cial 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 set-
tles 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 satistac.
tion and are enjoying the socalled
“social equality,” and Will continue to
do so until “the end of the chapter”
regardless of the ranting of southern-
ter it not both and the laws of the
political equality, the. fundamental
law of the land guarantees the lat-
ter 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 it
he is to keep abreast of the times and
be able to cope with them in the
great struggle of life. In’ this sec-
tion of the country, at least, we can
stand up and say so—tell the plain
Uinvarnished truth and should do so.
‘That it is not advisable for the good
Bishop to do so because of his resi-
dence in the South and because of the
large church interests there he rep-
resents, we can understand. However,
good bishop, please refrain from giv.
ing out such interviews here in the
North where they do no good but on
the contrary have an effect that re-
tards ‘the progress of those “of the
‘race in this section of the country.
BROKEN AEARTS REPAIRED.
Broken hearts are being mended in
Russia now—not the hearts shattered
by unfortunate romances, but the val-
vular 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 suc-
cessfully had their organs repaired
and have recovered entirely, to all ap-
pearances, from their remarkable ex-
periences. 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 op-
erated on the human heart.
“NEGRESS” 1S NAUSEATING.
‘The following from the Chicago
fribune is a manly protest against the
se of a word which is particularly of
‘ensive to colored women.

‘The colored men who persist in Ws-
ng “negro” as a race designation are
‘ergely to blame for the common use
of a word which should be avoided,
fhe colored people of the United
States are Americans—that’s all. ‘The
use of “negro” and “nogress” is the
cause of many discriminations against
the colored people.
“The word “negress” is nauseating,

Anterpeliated in the chamber of depu-
tes a few days ago on the rough treat-
ment French colored soldiers. are al
leged to have received from the Amer.
ican military police in French ports.
‘The questions were asked by M. Bois:
neuf and M. Lagrosiliiere, colored
deputies, respectively from Guade-
loupe and Martinique.
‘The debate that ensued ended with
the unanimous adoption of the follow:
ing, resolution:
“he chamber, faithful to the im-
‘mortal principles’of the rights of man,
condemning all prejudices of religion,
caste, or race, ‘solemnly affirms. the
absolute equality of all men, without
Aistinction of race or color, and their
right to the benefit and protection of
all the laws of the country. ‘The cham-
ber counts upon the government to ap-
ply these laws and see that the neces.
sary 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 pen-
alties and asked them not to insist
upon a discussion of “the very regret-
table 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, Boisnout
for reasons of “high diplomacy” to
Grop the subject. «The deputy said he
‘would not speak of questions that in-
volved. diplomacy, but he protested
‘against the compiteity of the French
military authorities in these incidents.
He then read a confidential circular
to French officers attached to the
American army, setting forth how

“familiarity between whites and
blacks.” 3

APPOINT BOARD
FOR RIOT PROBE
URGES. FULL CO-OPERATION
Gov. Frank ©. Lowden of Illinois
has announced the appointment of a
commission of twelve professional
and business men to make a study o!
Face relationships and report on the
recent race riots in Chicago.
Members of Commission.
‘The members of: the commission
are: Edgar A. Bancroft, Julius Ros
enwald, Victor F. Lawson, Eaward
Osgood Brown, Harry Bugene Kelly
William Seott Bond, Dr. Geo. C. Hall
Edward H. Morris, Robert S. Abbott
Adelbert H. Roberts, George H. Jack
son, Rev. L. K. Williams,
‘The six last named are colored men
Mr. Bancroft is chairman of the
commission, which will begin its in
vestigations as soon ag some of the
huembers return from their vacations,
probably within a week or two.
Acts on 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 organiza.
tions in Chicago to appoint a commis
sion to study and report upon the re
cant race riots in Chicago, and upon
the broad question of the relations
betwoon the two races
“Those riots were the work of the
Worst element of both races. They
did not represent the great over:
Whelming majority of either race, The
two races are here and will remain
here. ‘The great majority of each re:
alizes the necessity of thelr living
upon terms of cordial good-will and
respect, each for the other, That con-
dition imust 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 mob violence. I do know. that
every time that men, white or col
ored, take the law into their own
hands, instead of helping they only
postpone the settlement of the ques-
tion. 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 un-
dertake this great work. I have
sought only the most representative
men of the two races. I have not
even asked them whether they had
views as to how the question could
be met.
Urges Spirit of Fairness,
“1 have asked them only to ap:
proach the difficult subject’ with an
open mind and in a spirit of fairness
and justice to all. This is a tribunal
that has Deen constituted to get the
facts and interpret them and to find
& way out. I believe that great good
can come out of the work of this com:
mission.
“{ asi that our people, white and
colored, give their fullest co-operation
to the ‘commission. I ask, too, as I
have a right to ask, that, both races
fexercise that patience and self-re-
‘straint which are indispensable to
self-government while we are work-
jing out this problem.”

Allen, a cousin of her husband, and when they returned they found the house wrapped in darkness, but on entering the electric lights all over the house were turned on and she found 42 of her friends and neighbors had taken possession of her magnificent home. Was she surprised? Well we'll say she was. It, however, did not take very long for her to get over embarrassment and she at once entered the occasion. Mr. Chas, H. Miller, acting as the master of ceremonies, furnished a master program. He was introduced by the host as, "Bill Nye" and in his imitative way he introduced the others.

Loomis, "register when we first met"; B. C. Archer, "W. E. B. Du Bois," talked of the "N. A. A. C"; Atty, W. T. Francis, "Ben Davis", Atlanta, Ga., spoke on "Unity"; Mr. and Mme.

Lyles, "Pressurboy we met"; T. H. Wulferforce, told of J. M. Anderson and Sadie, "warm them". Mrs. Johnson responded in a very happy manner. The host, as a finale, gave "Reminiscences of his advent in St. Paul. Refreshments were served and thus ended a very delightful affair.

WHAT KIND OF BEE ARE YOU?
By Elbert W. Gilles.
I know a bee,
"A used to be."
A very worthy man is he;
But what he's going now to be,
Is not apparent yet to me.
I know a bee,
"A going to be."
A very worthy man is he;
But what he's going to do or be,
Is not apparent yet to me.
I know a bee,
A bumble bee,
A trouble maker rife is he;
For making trouble here and there,
He is a peach without compare.
I know a bee,
A honey bee,
A worker diligent is he;
With wholesome food for all mankind,
His hive with honey sweet is lined.
What kind of bee
Are you to be,
As you go forth upon life's sea,
An active, useful, working bee
Or drone or trouble maker free?
