SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1920. THREE MEN AT CHICAGO. According to press reports, three men, two avowed candidates and one a possibility addressed a colored organization, in session at Chicago on Lincoln's birthday. Governor Lowden, of Illinois, the first speaker handed out a few glittering generalities, for which he received a reward of scant applause. Then came William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, who said: "If there is one great duty before the people of America today it is to uphold the Constitution," the Mayor said. "We see the sorry spectacle of violation of the constitution every day and the colored people and William Hale Thompson are going to stand by the constitution and fight for it to the last ditch. Wild cheering broke forth and hats were tossed in the air. Then came Major General Leonard Wood who ended an excellent address with these clear cut words: "Today the important thing is law and order. There is no group that stands for law and order more than you colored people. You should be protected from mob violence. You should have equal rights. There should be no class legislation. We should have a free and untrammeled United States." He was vociferously applauded. No Segregated State Wanted. Answering with adverse comment the absurd and blighting proposition of one Rev. M. Madden, a colored man to have territory set aside exclusively along the Rio Grande, the Chicago Defender says: In our northern towns and cities, where harmony prevails among the different groups, these troubles makers attempt for selfish reasons to inject into the consciousness of the people the doctrine of segregation. In the matter of schools, for instance, they try to justify their action by claiming more openings will be made for our young women who wish to teach, and the same silly line of reasoning is applied in every walk of life. It has been proven beyond a question of a doubt that religious, political FREDERICK D. ROBinson "The Old Man Eloquent" the Anniversary of Whose Birthday Will be Celebrated February 18th. "The Old Man Eloquent" the Anniversary of Whose Birthday Will be Celebrated February 18th. and racial hatred is forstered by segregation or whatever one may call the line of demarcation. Europe today, divided as it is by imaginary boundary lines and by peoples of different tongue, has ever before her the possibilities of war. There is lacking that "melting pot" arrangement America is supposed to foster. "Community service," and all similar schemes are efforts at segregation pure and simple. Their purpose is to bar the colored people from quasi-public institutions, to which all other people are admitted without question. When the "colored" Y. M. C. A. was opened in Chicago, THE APPEAL printed editorially that it would prove Surely no sane person can question our right to American soil, to all the rights and privileges enjoyed by any good citizen. We have been largely instrumental in developing this new country. Our blood has been shed in every battle for its defense and today we are the only unit of the population that can be absolutely relied upon for pure unadulterated loyalty. And the suggestion is made that WE move! Would that some of these mischief makers knew the thoughts that flash across the brain of the black man when such absurd propositions are given an airing. There is as much likelihood of our moving as there is that the Sphynx will speak. THE "NIGGER" IN THE SEGREGATION WOODPILE. "Prof. Neval H. Thomas, a school teacher in Washington and an active member of its N. A. A. C. P., concludes a vigorous news article published in the Cleveland Gazette with words which answer the boasts of those who get money for institutions and houses for Colored people that keep the races apart, Says Prof. Thomas: "I have heard many silly Negro advocates of segregation boast of how much money they can raise for a Negro enterprise, too blind to see that most any white man will contribute liberally to any movement that will keep Colored people away from him and make them acknowledge their inferiority. In fact, the most dangerous enemy of democracy with which we have to contend, and the most serviceable capitalistic tool, is organized charity. The large donors to these Negro "charities" are making profitable investments when, through some well-paid Negro, they can establish a separate Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A. social settlement, or school. These institutions aid in keeping the toiling masses apart, so that, on the principle of "divide and conquer," these wealthy "donors" can exploit. So, the collection of large "contributions" by these Negro segregationists is no achievement, but another barrier to the progress of the race. I well remember how one of these international "secretaries" boasted of getting the money to build a Negro Y. M. C. A. in the great city of Chicago. If that institution remains there long the great civil rights law of Illinois will be null and void. Already its presence there has popularized a movement for separate schools and segregation as to homes for our people. "No, our solution is not surrender, but FIGHT! Let the churches and welfare clubs of Cleveland exert extra activity for the moral betterment of Cleveland's youth, and your press, pulpit, your ballot, and every other power within you. Agitate for admission into the associations which bear the name of Jesus who was "no respector of persons," until they acquire a sense of shame." THE APPEAL agrees with every word that Mr. Thomas has written. The Y. M. C. A., social settlements. "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained 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. —Cowper "Community service," and all similar schemes are efforts at segregation, pure and simple. Their purpose is to bar the colored people from quasi-public institutions, to which all other people are admitted without question. When the "colored" Y. M. C. A. was opened in Chicago, THE APPEAL predicted editorially that it would prove a curse, by reason of creating greater prejudice and the prediction has been more than verified. It will take a thousand years to undo the wrong it has done. Possibly ten thousand years may not right the wrongs done by the establishment of jimcrow Christian(?) associations in the United States. The man who has given so much money to divide American Christians along the color line is a Jew. How could it be possible for a Jew to be interested in the spread of Christianity? The idea is ridiculous. The shrewd Jew knew that by catering to the blind prejudice of the so-called white Christians would bring in dollars. He also knew that jimcrow "negroes" would laud him for his "philanthropy" and start a lot of colored men's silver silver dollars rolling his way. It was a plain Jewish business proposition. Cupidity not humanity caused him to spend his money for his pet charity." And it has paid. For every dollar he has put in he has taken out two. The colored man must fight to a finish any attempt to bar him from any public or semi-public institution. THE LINCOLN LEAGUE The Lincoln League, with its well chosen name, recently in session in Chicago, may become a useful instrument in aiding the colored people in their fight for justice, if it stands firm for the right and is not merely an appendage of the Republican party. It should be kept a nonpartisan body and the members should see that it does not degenerate into a jimcrow organization ready to sell out to the highest cash bidder. Here are three striking examples of the wisdom of nonpartisan action: The prohibition victory was won by nonpartisan work. The prohibition forces aided the party which was willing to reciprocate. National woman's suffrage has been practically achieved because the suffragists have kept aloof from partisan politics and voted for the candidates and party which offered the most in the suffrage line. Labor has been victorious in its battles because it has not attempted to do the un-American thing of organizing a labor party. Lynching, segregation and the thousand and one obstacles which lie in the path of the colored people may be swept aside, if colored voters will ignore party lines, Republican, Democratic, Socialist, Labor or other and vote for the party or candidate which offers the most in justice and rights. FEDERAL AID TO SOLDIERS In almost every community in the United States there is a discharged soldier, sailor, marine, or war nurse, suffering from some injury, or allment, which dates back to service with the fighting forces. Often this injury or allment has made it hard or impossible for them to fit in where they did formerly. They are handicapped and need help; not charity, but mental and physical reconstruction. In many cases such people unfortunately keep their troubles to themselves. They are reluctant to seek aid or advice, for fear their friends might consider them weak. Possibly you know such a person. If you do, encourage him to take his troubles to the Government. The War Risk Insurance Bureau and the United States Public Health Service are especially anxious to get in touch with such individuals. The Public Health Service has set up a chain of reconstruction bases throughout the country for beneficiaries of the War Risk Bureau. These are not Army hospitals, nor is there Army discipline in connection with them, but rather a system of hospitals similar to the general hospital in large cities except that the treatment is free and goes much further than in the ordinary hospital. Recreation, vocational training and wholesome entertainment are combined with treatment. While men are being bodily rebuilt they have the opportunity of learning some useful occupation, or pursuing academic studies. They are taught not only to find themselves, but to better their condition. The environment is as home-like as it is possible to make it. A great many men who went into the Army have developed tuberculosis and other diseases requiring special treatment. The Public Health Service has separate hospitals and sanatoriums for these patients, where they may get the best treatment known to medical science. A large number of soldiers are not yet aware that the Government offers them free treatment. Please tell them. THE BOYS' CLUB FEDERATION. THE APPEAL is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Frank G. Patchen, of the boys' Club Federation (Bureau of Information), 110 West 40th Street, New York, N. Y., asking for its cooperation in the efforts of the Federation to solve the vital problem of the "under-privilleged" boy, one of the greatest human problems that our country is facing. He states that in no sense does the work of the organization conflict with that of the Church. On the contrary, it is an aid to the Church, reaching material that neither the Church nor Church clubs can successfully reach and without bias, placing that material in the hands of the Churches for spiritual guidance, distributing to each Church its own, "WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE, CREED OR COLOR." Elsewhere in our columns we publish an article that tells of the Federation and it is hoped that some of our good citizens will interest themselves to the extent of writing to Mr. Patchen to learn the plans upon which the desired co-operation may be given. SINISTER SAY JAMAICANS Public opinion in Jamaica is growing stronger against the suggestion that Jamaica should be annexed for commercial and political purposes to Canada. The author of the suggestion, John Crowe, a Newfoundland millionaire, is referred to in an article in the Kingston Gleaner as follows: "Mr. Crowe's object is not the improvement of local conditions and the strengthening of our producers, a most important matter, but some pernicious political change, to be brought about for a purpose inimical to the true welfare of the island." Of the 900,000 inhabitants of Jamaica, only 15,000 or 20,000 are whites. The 885,000 colored Jamaicans would do well to keep their weather eye open—there may be some jimcrow scheme in the Canada wood pile. My purpose shall be to discourage in the native born the love for titles, to help every immigrant to forget his hyphen and be proud of the name American and to stamp out the use of such nicknames as words of derision of the foreign-born. We pledge our service never to use, and to discourage everywhere, the use of such words as Dago, Dutchy, Frogny, Ginny, Greaser, Heiny, Horwat, Hunky, Kike, Mick, Paddy, Sheny, Spaghetti, Wop, as applied to any foreign-born resident of the United States of America. With all of which we heartily agree, but we would have been much better pleased if the list had included some of the nicknames that are so frequently applied to a class of native born 100 per cent Americans, viz: " Negro, nigder, darkey, coon, shine, moke, dingy, pickaninny, etc., and as abnoxious as those named are to the class to which they are applied. HERE'S A STRAW FOR THE DROWNING. The Federal Prohibition Agent at New York has announced that alcoholic liquors can be used for cooking purposes without violating the law. He says: "New Yorkers have no need to do without brandy in their mince pies, or wine sauce on their puddings, as permits will be issued to hotels and restaurants to keep a stock of brandy and wine or whisky on hand for legitimate culinary purposes." If that's Federal law for New York it also is for any other place in the country, so we may look for a land office business in the sale of mince pies, and puddings with brandy and wine sauces. If you can't drink it you can eat it. Hip, hip hooray! Mrs. Edith Kermit Roosevelt, widow of Theodore Roosevelt, is president of the association of gold star mothers and fathers organized in New York to oppose the return of bodies of American soldiers killed in France. THE APPEAL believes that the colored people should oppose the return of the bodies of colored soldiers who were killed in France fighting for "democracy" to the U. S. A. This country is no place for a colored man when alive if he believes in democracy and certainly the relatives of those who were killed should be proud of the fact that they are buried in free soil and their remains rest in peace. Some colored men, particularly the jimcrowists, are throwing up their hats and shouting for different Republicans who "have been mentioned" for the Presidential nomination. The sane way would be to stop, look and listen. It will be time enough to shout when some candidate comes out boldly and announces that he will, if elected, recommend the enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment and use his influence with Congress to see that it is enforced, and also to endeavor to secure the repeal of all jimcrow laws and the abolition of all segregation regulations. That's the kind of man to shout for. MUST DEMAND AND FIGHT FOR RIGHTS PAYS TAXES, OBEYES LAW, SHEEDS BLOOD FOR COUNTRY SO MUST HAVE RIGHTS, SAYS COLORED SCHOOL TEACHER AT WASHINGTON—MUST WIN RESTAURANT, BARBER-BSOP, HOTEL, TRAVEL RIGHTS OR BE INFRIOR-INFERRORITY INVITES LYNCHING. (Washington Star, Washington D. C.) The colored man has been in this country as long as the Anglo-Saxon white man. He has helped in proportion to his numbers to make it the great and powerful nation that his. He pays taxes, he obeys laws, he sheds blood to defend it. Yet he is denied his civil rights almost everywhere in the land. He does not enjoy the liberty he has earned. The crisis has come in the United States. He must demand his rights. He must fight for them. He must appeal for aid to the millions of white men in American who love justice enough to give him his due. Foregoing is the gist of a speech entitled "Agitation the Social Lever of the World" made by Neville H. Thomas, teacher of Greek and Roman history in Dunbar High School, at a meeting in Plymouth Congregational Church. Discusses President's Attitude. The attitude of President Wilson toward the civil status of the colored man citizen was sharply criticized by the speaker, who described Postmaster General Burleson as the "ignorant autocrat of the Post Office Department said to have some interest in a peonage farm in Texas," and who exorcized Attorney General Palmer and Secretary of the Navy Daniels. "Discrimination is being practiced against the Colored man in America today by everybody from President Obama to Donald J. Trump; we have got to agitate without thought of personal sacrifice in order to win justice. Remember, freemen throughout history have won no rights without fighting for them. Underlying Cause of Lynching "The business of lynching in this country has got to be stopped, and it is going to be stopped. We must win the rights to patronize the best restaurants, the theaters and hotels and to encourage transportation conveniences. Until we can stop the grip of inferior beings. And when you are considered an inferior man you invite lynchings." Quotes Palmer. Reading from Senate document No. 153, a communication sent to the Capitol by the Attorney General on the subject of "nemo radicalism" the speaker criticised that official for considering as lawless those colored people who agitate, and for failing to prosecute the lawless mobs that lynch colored people. "Remember the Attorney General is your servant and mine. He wants to keep the colored man from hollering when he is kicked. "We have found a cure for mob violence against us. It is armed resistance. By that I do not mean armed aggression, but self-defense. We will meet mob law with the same vigor our black heroes displayed in storming the heights near Metz in the great war. Every man must make his home his castle and defend it with his life." It is the duty of the northern to teach his southern brother to demand and secure the free use of the vote, Mr. Thomas asserted. The colored man of the south must be able to enjoy the best of accommodations. Sees Attempt at Suppression. "The Attorney General and the Senate cannot suppress 12,000,000 people determined to get their civil rights," he went on to say. The declaration was rewarded with hearty applause. "Every time the authorities repress one man who agitates they make a thousand converts to the cause. They are deporting men for agitation, but they are not deporting their ideas. Bolshevism can't be suppressed with force, but it can be met successfully with true democracy." The speaker repeatedly paid grateful tribute to the French people for their attitude of fraternity toward the colored American soldier. He said America is the only one of twenty-seven nations represented at the peace table that draws the color line. "The Cruelest Autocracy." "While Wilson preached democracy there," he declared, "our 300-odd representatives in the peace conference knew that in America the colored citizen was suffering under the cruelest autocracy that ever cursed the world." In conclusion the speaker bitterly assailed race segregation in the government departments. The exclusion from the government navy and military academies was a target for redhot rhetoric. "Yes, despite President Wilson's bombast on democracy," he finished, "we have none here." S. M. Kendrick, a deacon in the church presided and made a brief address supporting the attitude of the principal speaker. ```markdown ``` VALENTINE VERSES. By Mary Humphrey. To a girl I left Behind.

It would take too much space to tell all the advantages that may accrue to any ex-soldier of the U. S. army who will intelligently investigate some things. They can get the best and cheapest war risk insurance in the world. They can get citations "for Meritorious Service." They can get free, the best medical treatment known to science. Reader, if you are an ex-soldier, go to some army office and investigate and learn what you may get if you try. MRS. GEORGE DUCKETT. President of Benevolent Association Celebrate Her Birthday. Seldom, if ever, does one find a woman who is honest and brave enough to tell her correct age, after she passes sweet sixteen. So when Mrs. Florence L. Duckett, President of the Benevolent Association announced to the members that on Thursday, January 29, she would be three score years old and to commemorate the anniversary, she would on that date keep "open house" and especially invited them to "drop in" to see her, why of course the members did so in large numbers. Some of them, accompanied by a gentle coin came with small and large tokens, in which Mrs. Duckett is held. Her beautiful home on St. Anthony avenue was decorated for the occasion. She was assisted in serving by Mrs. Louise Wright and Miss Edith Gillard. Music and games were indulged in until a late hour, when the guests departed all wishing the hostess many more birthdays.

St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 14, 1920. To All Members of The Progressive Association: Social equality and equal rights seemed to have been the aims of the founders of The Progressive Association. When I joined it, I was promo- tioned that they aimed to the promo- tion of co-operated business en- terprises, would be included, in the aims of the Association. On the strength of that promise, I induced many men to join the Association. The promise was broken and the lack of fundamental principles soon discouraged progressive members. Consequently the Association is practically defunct. I will be at the office, 290 S. 51st Street, Shreveport, Arkansas, 15th from 7 to 8 P.M. and if some beneficial and definite reason for continuing its existence cannot be offered, I will, in behalf of my claims and obligations be compelled to remove all furniture belonging to the Borg Furniture Co., and to my mother. I am not discouraged, but am thankful for the experience, and shall in the near future attempt to organize a company to finance a co-operative grocery, a la Du Bois' plan. Would like to hear from my friends and others who are in favor of such a project. Yours Truly, N.
