Indianapolis, Indiana, March 9, 1920. As I have been a constant reader of your splendid paper for over a year I would like to submit to you the following statement which I hope you will find space in your paper to print. I have received one hundred and two letters from editors all over the country which on the whole expressed this sentiment, I am not particularly interested in who is the nominee of the Republican party. It matters not what his name may be or what his vocation may be, if he is right on the question affecting my race and the business of this country, he is my candidate. I am in complete sympathy with the thought that he (candidate) must be right on the race question. I would be a traitor if I were not, and I, also, believe that the candidate of the Republican party must be an out and out American concerned primarily with the business of this country like Lincoln of old and the late Theodore Roosevelt. I take direct exception to the statement that it matters not what his (the candidate's) name may be; because, first this statement means nothing but evasion of the issue and savors of the usual political pussyfooting, and see only because back of a candidate's name is the man and his record, both of which can be studied. One hundred and twenty-three editors have fearlessly chosen General Wood as the champion of the Square deal to all men. What is the matter with the one hundred and two? The facts, the past records, and the present utterances, and platform of General Leonard Wood are open to all alike. Are we to forever go on leading only where there is darkness? I think the colored people of the United States are entitled to know that General Wood is right on our question, that he is the only candidate to do it openly champion the cause of every American white black who is in trouble and that it does matter to two million colored voters what the candidate's name is for president of the greatest Democracy in the world.

SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1920. THE BEGINNINGS OF SEGREGATION. The following item from the Chicago Daily Tribune is interesting as showing the various influences which are suggesting and encouraging segregation. "The possibility of Wendell Phillips High school at Thirty-ninth street and Prairie avenue being set apart for colored pupils exclusively," "by a natural segregation." was suggested last night by Principal Charles H. Perrine. At the First Presbyterian church, Grand boulevard and Forty-first street. Dr. Perrine spoke at the first of a series of Subday night community meetings in' connection with the Chicago Plan. "Negro boys and girls deserve the best available in the way of teachers and equipment. The district around Wendell Phillips is rapidly becoming settled by colored people, and there are comparatively few white pupils. They are getting fewer and fewer. "The time is near at hand when we shall need another high school farther south to take care of the increased white population there. A modern High school located somewhere near Fiftieth street will be necessary soon and should be included in the Chicago Plan. Wendell Phillips will be then exclusively for colored pupils. They should be given the finest high school possible." The Rev. William Covert, pastor of the First church, announces a series of discussions on Sunday evenings to consider the duty of the church in the development of the Chicago Plan. Like nine out of every ten schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was suggested by a supposed friend and perhaps there is a "nigger in the woodpile." That is perhaps Perrine had talked with some jimcrow "negro" who approved the outrageous plan. There are some jimcrow "negroes" in Chicago and in other cities including St. Paul and Minneapolis. Like the majority of schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was incubated in a so-called Church of Christ. Principal Perrine said that the district was becoming settled by colored THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cone The human race has test. Had no voice injustice, ignorance quisition yet would guillotines decide on The few who dare speak again to right many.—Ella Wheel 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. people and therefore Wendell Phillips High School should be made "colored." That would be an outrageous perversion of the name, for Wendell Phillips was a real Christian white man who devoted his life to work in righting the wrongs of his colored brethren. There are neighborhoods in Chicago inhabited almost exclusively by Italian, Chinese, Poles, Russians and other foreigners, but the thought never comes to Mr. Perrine or others of his ilk to restrict the children in those neighborhoods to "exclusive" Italian, Chinese, Polish or Russian schools. The schools remain PUBLIC schools, open to all. There has been much talk about the "Chicago Plan" and now we are getting some intimation that segregation is to be a part of that plan. However we believe that the thinking colored people of Chicago have their eyes open and will be ready to fight jimcrowization of the schools. One thing that Mr. Perrine said is true: "The colored boys and girls are entitled to the best in the way of equipment and teachers." The colored children have the same rights as other children, no more and no less. To attempt to segregate them is to take from them their birthright. The only way they can get the "best" is to attend the identical schools that other American children attend. A jimcrow school built of gold and studded with diamonds would still carry with it the degradation for which it was designed. THE "NIGGER" IN THE SEGREGA- TION 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 THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than th world, the countena the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. once when we should awards out of men. has climbed on pro- been raised against he and lust, the in- l serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. 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, "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 white 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. MIRABILE DICTU! In these days of profiteering and money mad people whose God is money, it is almost unbelievable that a man would resign an easy job that paid a salary of 10,000 "plunks" to accept a hard job that only pays $3,000. The rara ava that did this is Rev. J. Douglas Swagery of Dallas, Texas, who was educated for the ministry and was assistant pastor of the First Methodist church. When the church no longer needed an assistant pastor, Mr. Swagery accepted a position at a salary of $10,000. He received an offer of assistant pastor, choir director and director of religious education in Wesley Memorial church of Atlanta, Ga., at a salary of $3,000 per year. He says: "It is not a matter of money with me, it is a matter of doing my duty. I will continue in church work despite the greater financial opportunities offered in other fields. It is my chosen calling and I wish to follow it." One can have some faith in this man's Christianity. ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR WEST POINT. It has been so long since a congressman of any of the states has been fair enough, man enough and unafraid to appoint a colored boy as a candidate for West Point, that it is quite refreshing and gratifying to find an exception in Congressman L. C. Dyer of Missouri, who appointed Richard W. Jackson, aged 19, a graduate of Sumner High School, St. Louis, as principal candidate for the Nation's Military Academy. There have been several colored boys appointed to West Point in former years, but only two were able to withstand the strenuous, outrageous treatment accorded them who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be parts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the ances of relatives or and to be ALLOWED to graduate. The new candidate appears properly equipped to undergo the ordeal if he succeeds in passing the required examination in March, which we sincerely hope he will. We also hope if he passes he will be fortunate enough to over-ride all obstacles that may be put in his path at West Point and that he will be permitted to graduate. NOW LET THEM GO ON RECORD The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, announces that a questionnaire has been sent to every man prominently mentioned as a presidential possibility, asking him to state his views on a program for bettering race relations in the United States. The questionnaire is as follows: "If elected President: 1. Will you favor the enactment of laws making lynching a Federal offense? 2. What is your attitude toward the disfranchisement of Americans of African descent: (a) Will you advocate Congress enforce the 14th amendment and reduce the representation of states which disfranchise the "zens" or (b) will you advocate the appointment of United States Commissioners to enforce the 15th amendment? 3. Will you endeavor to bring about the abolition of "Jim Crow" cars in interstate traffic?" 4. Will you withdraw armed or other interference with the independence of Haiti? 5. Will you urge national aid to elementary education, without discrimination against colored children? 6. Will you pledge the apportionment of colored soldiers and colored officers in the armed forces of the United States in proportion to their numbers in population? 7. Will you abolish racial segregation in the Civil Service of the United States?" The questionnaire was sent to the following men: Herbert Hoover, William G. McAdoo, Governor Goodrich of Indiana, Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University; Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, Senator Hitchcock, Governor Cox of Ohio, Senator Pomerene, James W. Gerard, Senator Underwood, General Wood, Senator Warren G. Harding, Governor Lowden of Illinois, Senator Hiram W. Johnson, Senator Poindexter, Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts and General Pershing. LIBERIA OUSTED HUNS African Republic Was Only Nation to Expel All Germans During the WWI. London, March 1.—Liberia is said to have been the only state at war with Germany which expelled every German from within its gates and sequestrated all their property. Before the war there were about 300 German cities, Monrovia, the capital, and Liberia was rapidly becoming a German protectorate, says Alan Bourchier Lethbridge, in the Daly Telegraph. The Germans, he adds, controlled a giant wireless plant and evidently had made arrangements to use Liberia as a link in the chain of colonial possessions. Their places now are being rapidly taken by Spaniards, and Mr. Lethbridge infests if Spanish immigration into Liberia continues, Spain will have the largest foreign colony in the country.

(From the Boston Guardian) In his correspondence for the Old reliable Cleveland Gazette, a paper which we greatly admire as we admire algo its great editor, Hon. Harry C. Smith, especially for his stand against the race drawing off together in separate philanthropic institutions, Prof. Neval H. Thomas, of Washington, D. C., flays Judge (or Justice as he calls him) Robt. H. Terrell as a compromisor. Prof. Thomas made a splendid fight against a separate lunch room in the District Supreme Court Building. He says Judge Terrell was quoted by the judges against him. He charges that he opposed colored people coming North, opposed race petitioners to peace Conference and then scores him for rushing to be the first to greet President Wilson upon his return from the Conference. We. ourselves, are surprised to see the way in which Mr. Terrell had this sent out the country and the way the press displayed it. He says the Judge presided at a meeting for Sen. Borah oppose the 15th amendment. Then he speaks as follows: "He even sanctioned separate recreational centers for colored and white troops, with those of the colored immensely inferior, in spite of the fact that the blood of white and black alike was flowing in one crimson stream in distant France. Only agreeable colored people are allowed to speak to the colored soldiers at the center of which he is head. None of us radicals who are constantly telling the colored man that he has done his share of the dying and that it is high time he was getting some of the living men invited to this center to talk democracy. We took our stand on this in Boston much farther North than Washington. Verily the Judge needs make reply or the race will see how it is that Southern administration retains a colored man as Justice. (From the Monitor, Omaha.) To stand before the God of heaven and earth with trumpets and loud voice and proclaim: "Thank God we (U. S.) are not as other people are. We write upon our books laws granting to all our people equality." Then write other laws abrogating the previous regulations? And when you do not think it feasible to put them in print, simply make it an unwritten rule that serves your purpose as well? To covet your neighbor's goods (rights) and if he should remonstrate with you, to slay him? For a so-called democracy to have two or more interpretations of the same word, each contrary to the other? To assert that a man is incapable of accomplishing a meritorious deed, without giving him an honest chance for a try. To call a man whose distant parents or parent had Negro blood a Negro and a white man whose parents were Indian, Malay or Mongolian a white man still? Must Judge A Group by Its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston Mass.) No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first. They know aspirations among them that the others do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the best of the race which others are oblivious of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which they rely by self-evantasy are blinded. If they know the colored race through the eyes of observation merely could know how individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously candid with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at t He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his o To enforce the wrong, Dooms and devotes him "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLQT." 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.

No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. WALLER AGAINST "NEGRO." Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes Mental and Physical Segregation. (From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realise that it is the most potential factor in the at present to bring about both physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because our speakers and teachers especially Do Bois and Washington are necessary to repetition, and teamwork, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or upifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to Gulanee, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negroy," and its compounds, Negrohead, Negro-ly, Negro-monkey, are all fairly in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Negro" and "Nigger." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours. Not "Nigger"—Not "Negro." (From the Washington Bee.) Bishop Wilbur Thirkield, in discussing colored Americans in the Southwestern Christian Advocate, and in his reply to Irvin S. Cobb, says: "The writer means well, but does not seem to know what the term nigger that has persisted as a relof 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 "Negro." We are American citizens, the same as you, although our skin may be dark. The white man manufactured both terms and 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 disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their roots to Africa, and there is no more right than all colored people Negroes than to call all white people Turks or Armenians."—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney Wim H. Lewis, Boston, Mass Speaking at the A. M. E. conference at Indianapolis last week Bishop Coppin said: "Some colored people say belong to the exclusive class. Colored people are too far from the top of the ladder to talk foolishness of exclusiveness." --- OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. Certainly Silly. VEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS. IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL.

Hall, $1.00 per inch is to be paid. Candidate for Councilman of St. Paul. (From The Appeal.) However, desirable may be the possession and stewardship of wealth; with whatever resignation we acclaim knowledge to be power, and sit in submissive amazement at the feet of those possessed of high intellectual attainment; with whatever patronizing manner we almost proclaim to be deities and worship the posterity of individuals permitted by the creator to be the principal actor in some scene of life's great historic drama, the real measure of manhood is not in any or all of these possessions, but may be noted by the depth of character that descending from high station touches the man farther down, in a sympathy that reaches out like a pair of long loving arms encircling the unfortunate and a heart that echoes "Brother." It is quite fortunate that we have political campaigns at stated intervals if only for the purpose of learning who our neighbors are. James F. Sperry meets the requirements of high-class manhood according to the rule laid down. He does not need to promise what he will do. He has lived the manhood toward colored people is sufficient to convince subborn-minded men of his depth and breadth of character. Mr. Sperry is in the real estate business, and no one ever knew him to be in absolute control of a piece of property which he would not willingly sell or rent to a reliable colored client.

Mr. Sperry was willing to loan that institution $10,000 for 20 years on payments of $500 per year. When Mars Lodge secured the lots that are now the site of Union Hall, Mr. Sperry secured the lots against a deal of local opposition. When Union Hall was about to be constructed, when architects bickered, when contractors almost failed and when the specification question as to whether the specification was made up to, when money lenders made excuses to why they could not place the loan, the Board of Directors was stabilized by the firm knowledge that Mr. Sperry would see them through. Colored people are not asked to vote for Mr. Sperry for Councilman as pay for his many kindnesses, such a thought is beneath the ideals of the man, but when colored men do vote, it should be a vote for the protection of mothers, sisters, wives and children and the children of a prescribed race, for that reason we wish them to be advised as to their friends. POSTSCRIPT. Mr. Sperry's proposition as outlined in the Daily News Sunday, Feb. 29th, to create a municipal centre in the block bounded by Minnesota, Robert, Tenth and Eleventh streets, has aroused favorable interest of many big business people. If the deal can be consummated, it will increase the value of property in that vicinity from three to ten times, including Pilgrim Baptist Church. Charles H. Miller O. C.
