President Harding made a speech Wednesday at Birmingham, Ala., on the race problem, which displayed remarkable misinformation on the subject due to the fact that he has evidently studied from one side only. In his special message to the Congress which met March 4, Mr. Harding said that he looked with favor on the idea of the appointment of an inter-racial commission to study racial conditions in the United States. There was no need for haste in announcing his view on a question which could not have been studied properly in the short time since he, in June, 1921, announced his intention to do, owing to his many and pressing official duties, and it seems that the President has taken advantage of an opportunity and thrust his views upon the public ear, for the purpose of creating a sentiment in favor of his ideas on the subject, which were evidently obtained from individuals and books favorable to the South but inimical to the real interests of the colored people. The President erroneously confounds "social equality" with amalgamation. He says that amalgamation cannot be, but it exists, it has always existed and always will exist. The combined efforts of the law and public opinion have failed to prevent the mixing of the races. Throughout the ages there has been so much racial mixing that today the scientists and ethnologists agree that there is no such thing as a pure race. In no other country on the globe has there been more racial mixing than in the United States which is the melting pot of the world. The majority of the people of the United States are mixtures of various races and the greater part of this majority is composed of people, with more or less Negro blood. The racial mixing in the South is almost wholly illegitimate as the laws make marriage between the races a crime. Now as to social equality, that exists in some part of the United States and it is only in those parts of the country which have more or less of social equality that the colored people have any rights which the white people respect. The very words, "social equality" imply that all rights are secure. In the South there is neither equality nor respect for rights. The contempt for the colored man is largely due to his inferior social status, which extends through all human relationships in that benighted section of the country. Even at the THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cow The human race has test.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler, Wilcox. speech of the President the colored people were segregated and the dispatches say, "In the white section there was a silence which was absolute and stony, only one light flutter of applause came when the President said, "The Negro should be encouraged to be the best possible Negro and not the best possible imitation of the white man." This seemed to please a few of the whites who evidently visioned a "good Negro" of slavery days, who hat in hand bowed low when "oled massa" approached. When Harding was a candidate for President, THE APPEAL doubted that he would give colored people a square deal and was not disposed to support him but we were reassured by letters signed by Chairman Hays and Secretary Miller and many leading Republicans, as well as the jim-crow campaign bureau that he would be just to his allies. Also Editor William Monroe Trotter said that he had had a personal interview with the President and he had promised to aid in eliminating segregation. Then came a speech to a number of colored delegations from the Harding front porch, which began with, "Fellow Americans" and ended with, "Colored men," America will not fail you." These assurances caused THE APPEAL to give candidate Harding enthusiastic support. Our support, probably, had little to do with the victory, but is mentioned to show that this paper was not prejudiced against him. Soon after the President assumed his duties it was noticed that he seemed to forget his promises. Segregation in the departments at Washington was continued, three or four jimcrow colored men were appointed to jimcrow government positions. Colored youth were segregated in the army training camps and colored men were not allowed to enlist in the navy. In every way the Harding administration has stood for the segregation of colored citizens and it is sad to relate that some jimcrow men accept this jimcrow settlement of matters. THE APPEAL does not believe, as Mr. Harding puts it, that there is a "fundamental, eternal and unescapable difference between the races." To do so would be to challenge God and Christianity. It is a distinct departure from the ideals of the founders of the Republic who declared that "all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." After his argument in favor of a distinct place for the black and colored people, Mr. Harding tells us that the "one thing we must most sedulously avoid is the development of group and class organizations in this country." He argued against the very thing which he has previously argued for. There are just as many differences between the individuals of any one race as their are between the people of any number of races. The idea of race differentiation in any form in the law, in the functions of the government, and in public association is contrary to a just concept of a democracy in which all men are presumed to be equal, and is repugnant to the highest ideals of the Christian's God, who is declared to have made of one blood all nations of men. If Mr. Harding is right, Christianity is wrong. If Mr. Harding had had the time to study the question and he had studied it with an open mind he would have found that in France, Spain and For Good Guaranteed Prompt S For Good Coal Guaranteed Weights Prompt Service Place Your Order With THE C.

Portugal, there have never been any racial hatreds founded on the color of the skin and the same is true of South and Central America. In these countries, unhampered by class and color distinctions colored men have risen to the highest places in every branch of human endeavor. There are more full-blooded Negroes in Brazil than in the United States; and, counting the mixed-blood population of black, Indian and white, and the pure whites, the population totals over 30,000,000 who live together in perfect harmony, without any public differentiation of race. There are no social barriers whatever in Brazil and it is a complete refutation of the idea that there must be social bars between the men and women who are citizens of a country. Color differentiation means the ascendency of one caste and the degradation of the other. Social equality does not necessarily mean amalgamation. That should be a matter for individuals to determine. During the coming digarmament parley, the Japanese will be treated with the greatest social consideration. They will be wined and dined and received at every social function, meeting people who in their hearts hold hatred toward them, and in spite of all the social mingling it is safe to say that not a single marriage will result. In a democracy like ours, all men, whether they are black or white, red, yellow or brown, should meet in all human relationships without racial differentiation—simply as AMERICANS. COLORED AMERICANS MUST ACT. The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill has been reported favorably by the committee of the judiciary. It is known as the DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL H. R. 13. Now is the time to flood Congress with telegrams, letters, even personal visits to Washington. We must let this Congress know that a failure to bring the Dyer Bill to a vote will be regarded as a betrayal. We must let each representative know that a vote against the Dyer Bill will be known as a vote, for lynching. GET BUSY, COLORED AMERICANS! NEW BOOZE RULES The wets throughout the country are jubilant over the action in Congress allowing, under the new rules affecting beer, wine and liquors considerable modification. The new rules cover comprehensively the use of beer, wines and spirituous liquors as medicines. The amount of beer a physician may prescribe at one time for the use of the same person is limited to two and one-half gallons, the equivalent of a case, but no arbitrary limit is placed on the number of such prescriptions a physician may write or the same person may obtain within a given period. Two quarts of wine is the limit put on a single prescription for that beverage, but otherwise the regulations are the same as for beer. Spirituous liquors are limited to one pint within any ten-day period, and alcohol for external use is limited to a pint to the same person at one time. Prescriptions for these medicines may be filled only by a licensed pharmacist who is also a retail drugrist. d Coal ed Weights ervice Community Chest Has Made Good!

And the anti-prohibitionists feel like they can enjoy more "personal liberty" than they have been allowed for some time. So far as Minnesota is concerned there is a state law that will prohibit very much indulgence and there are other states that will not be materially affected. The only states where the state laws do not interfere with the prescription of beer under the federal regulations are California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, and in some sections of Maryland and Louisiana. Many permits have been issued for the manufacture and sale of beer in Wisconsin and Milwaukee has 5,000,000 gallons ready now. Both wets and drys are considerably wrought up over the situation and there is much speculation over what will be the ultimate outcome. EGYPT TO BE FREE. A special cable from London says that England will soon give Egypt independence. The question of the abolition of the protectorate is said to be the basis of a discussion now going on in the British cabinet and also a permanent treaty alliance with the British empire when independence is granted.

It is not surprising that Perry W. Howard is the president of the organization. The article refers to him as a Special Assistant Attorney General, which he is not. Mr. Howard is Special Assistant TO the Attorney General which is quite a different thing. It is a segregated place. How the men who have gone into this organization can hope to eradicate segregation by segregating themselves is not clear. The colored federal employees should become members of the union which is open to all and work in harmony with their brother employees of various races, creeds and colors. Men and women, do not segregate yourselves. WERE THE CARDS STACKED Twenty-three years ago the United States occupied the Philippine Islands, promising independence for the Filipinos in about twenty years or as soon as the natives were "qualified for freedom." Shortly after coming into power the present Republican administration sent a mission consisting of Gen. Leonard Wood and W. Cameron Forbes to investigate present conditions and the report just made, which will not reach Washington for five or six weeks, recommends that the United States must keep the islands. Two months ago, long before the investigation had been, completed, Gen. Wood was nominated for governor. Did Uncle Sam stack the cards on the liberty-loving Filipinos? --- --- pay $10,000 to the family of the victim. Representative Dyer of St. Louis, author of the bill, gave notice he will press for early enactment. The bill defines a lynching mob or riotous assembly as constituting "five or more persons acting in concert to deprive a prisoner of life without authority of law." States or governmental subdivisions failing to protect a person against such act shall be held to have denied the person of his guaranteed protection under the federal Constitution. State, county or municipal officers failing to make all reasonable efforts to protect against a lynch mob or in failing to arrest and prosecute members of such a mob shall be tried in federal district courts on felony charges, and on conviction be subject to imprisonment not exceeding five years or a fine of $5,000, or both. Persons participating in the lynching mob are liable to imprisonment for five years. That the strenuous activities of the N. A. A. C. P. had much to do with this favorable consideration there is no doubt. A MISGUIDED MOVEMENT! A MISGUIDED MOVEMENT! THE APPEAL has noticed in several papers the organization of the Federal Employees' League composed of colored federal employees, which we believe is a great mistake and will only serve to increase the segregation now practiced in Washington.

Lincoln Johnson, in his own heart, knows that he is not a fit representative of the colored people in America, and any who know of his activities in Chicago preceding the election of President Harding will agree. Yet fate sometimes plaus a peculiar card. WILLIAM ALLISON SWEENEY DEAD.

A certain choir filmed with one of the largest Methodist churches of Chicago will sing some of the slave melodies in Oak Park on the evening of October 28th. Why the choir is being advertised as perpetuating these relics of slavery and why the choir will even sing these songs which back the dreadful and the progressive powers of slavery we are unable to tell. It seems that a proud and progressive people seek to wipe out all memories of serfdom and slavery. The colored people are strange in some respects.

One of the dangers is that of talking too much. "A soft answer turneth away wrath," and no answer at all is often nearly as good. Von Moltke once said of the Duke of Wellington, that, "he could hold his tongue in seven different languages." Shaking up troublesome matters makes more trouble. Silence is one of the sublimest forms of eloquence. "The truth should be spoken at all times," but we need not always tell all we know. Silence is soon mended, but words are often unmandable. To treat many things with silent and prayerful sorrow is often the best way to handle them. Ladies who desire anything in the line of hair work, will do well to call on Mrs. Lizzie Talbert Aven.
