President Harding and Social Equality
(From The Nation, New York.)
Find fault with the President after
he has gone straight into Southern
territory and come out plump for the
colored man's political and economic
rights, and the necessity of giving
him an education equal to the white
Why then cavil at any single phrase of the President? Why not overlook his one unfortunate utterance in order to bestow upon him what unforeseen reference to social equality—"men of both races may well stand uncompromisingly against every suggestion of social equality"—fell like a lash upon every thoughtful colored man and offender. He was not a davenport. Even in far-buenos Aires it called forth protests; the national Argentine socialist convention at once interpreted Mr. Harding as meaning that the condition of "the ten millions of men of color" in the public will be eternally one of inferiority and subordination," and emphatically protested against it. True, the phrase quoted sweetened the rest of the dose for the South and saved the abuse and fanalenunciation as a "nigger lover" and from the charge of "insulting the South." Yet it would have been far better had he never uttered it, for by it he played into the hands of all who justify any discrimination against the colored man.
At least he should have defined just what he meant by social equality. If he had in mind intermarriage only, he should, in justice to himself and to the society, totally the phrase covers a multitude of sins. It is the excuse for endless aggression and wrongdoing by the "superior race." In the final analysis in the South social equality invariably whittles down the diversity of white women, and in order to prevent them multitudes of our white Americans in the South honestly thinks themselves justified in resorting to any measures down to torture and burning. So certain groups have been tolerated that they seek to prevent any approach to it by even forbidding colored people the use of public libraries, to say nothing of public carriers. Harry an honest goes on to say that there being driven in upon his consciousness a realization that in a republic which hypocritically boasts of the freedom of all its citizens and their equality of opportunity he bears upon himself, that he deliberately classified inferiority.
So President Harding ought to have informed us whether he meant by his words on social equality to approve of the jimcarow man, the denial of all culture opened lecture halls to colored people, and the unending discrimination against them in restaurants and hotels and in practically every walk of life. He has not even stated that it is opposed to that precedent. He has not said that the segregation of the colored man in the departments at Washington. Until Mr. Harding does speak out on these questions, which mean more to the colored man than anything else, which daily band members do, he says, every educated mother look upon her children and ask whether she can justify to them their being called into existence, he cannot have thought the problem of segregation which we believe he desires to render, which we honor him for seeking to render.
What Mr. Harding has yet to see is that if the colored man obtains the economic freedom, the political freedom, and the boon of education which he craves for him this whole question of race relationship will at once adhere to the same moral basis; that as long as the question of social equality is made the excuse for abuse, ill treatment, and the denial of rights sacredly guaranteed by the Constitution it works infinite harm to the whites who thus make of their republic an hypocrisy and defile their own souls by sponsoring injustice and wrong. There is something sadly wrong with the white man must be preserved in that manner. Moreover, if there are "fundamental, eternal, and inescapable race differ-
eneses" they will take care of the situation themselves. But whether they do or not, no President is true to America who does not insist that every American citizen shall have the freest social opportunity without barriers of class or race or color, and political freedom as well.
The President in the South.
- (Editorial reprinted from THE APPEAL, St. Paul, Minn.)
President Harding recently made two speeches in the South, one at Birmingham, Ala., the other at Atlanta, Ga., on the race question, in which he displayed a remarkable lack of information on the subject evidence due to the cause that he had studied in the side of the question. Of course Mr. Harding is right, when he says that the colored man should have political, educational and economic rights, but he is wrong when he says that he is not entitled to every right to which every other group of Americans is entitled. The president has no right to say that one-eighth of the population of the state must be differentiated in any way from the other seven-eighths.
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 with not one on studied property 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 in the subject, were obtained, individual and books favorable to the individual and books intolerable to the real interests of the colored people.
The President erroneously confounds "social equality" with amalgamation. He says that amalgamation cannot be used, it exists, it has always been 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 today as scientists and biologists agree that there such a 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 majority of the population of the United States 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 and 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 of the United States have 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 status with the all human relationships in that benighted section of the country. Even at the speech of the President the colored people were segregated and the dispatches say, "In the white section the colored man is inferior to the white 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 be the case. The South evidently visioned a "good Negro" of slavery days, who hat in hand bow low when "ole masa" approached. The South has a queer idea of social equality. In the North "social equality" is its aim. The South mate social mingling in private house parties, dances, pink teas, etc. In the South the idea is distorted so that it includes civil rights, hence the jimcar car, the jimcrow school, the jimcrow library, the jimcrow park, the phone booth booth and so on ad museum.
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. He was supported by reporters 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 Hays, a former official with 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, with fellow men, "Common 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 support he received, 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 the board of the colleges. 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 on the island. THE APPEAL does not believe, as Mr. Harding nuts it, that there is a
THE APPEAL.
ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 26, 1921
"fundamental, 'eternal and unescapable difference between the races" To do so would be to challenge God and Christianity. It is a distinct difference from the ideals of the founders of the republic of the United States, all "men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Over his argument in favor of a distinct difference, the organized people, Mr. Harding tells us that the "one thing we must most seduously avoid is the development of group and class organizations in this country." He argued against the very idea that he has previously argued that the 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, in the association is contrary to a just system 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 be made of one blood all nations of man. Mr. Harding is right, God is wrong.
Condemns President's Conception of American Citizenship.
(From the Afro-American, Baltimore)
President Harding's Birmingham speech is being criticised by colored people because it promises the colored race too little and by the white people too much. The ten thousand colored people who listened to the President appeal for political and educational equality for them, cheered because they know that their own state disfranchises them by the thousands and robs them of millions of dollars of funds. His twenty thousand white hearers were correspondingly silent.
On the other hand President Harding subscribed to the white South's view of "social equality," which means intermarriage laws, jimcrow street cars and railways, no political offices for colored people and discrimination between the two races. Carried out to its logical conclusion the President would sanction a separate school for the hundred colored families in Bangor Me., separate cars for the Boston subways and a disruption of the Mackay Mission church. It comes with poor access from a President of the United States to thunder "Race amalgamation, there cannot be" and close his eyes to millions of mulattoes in this country who represent the lust of the white race. They believe with the President that he will provide their votes, but we should have preferred to hear him say so before his election rather than after it. The Afro-American admires the President's courage, believes in his sincerity, but condemns his conception of American citizenship, his ignorance of history of civilization and his bad taste.
Complete Surrender to Lily-White. (From the Independent, Atlanta, Ga.) "I will not appoint any colored men to the Mackay Mission or swim or survive or perish, live or die, I shall stand by this position."
Is that in keeping with his great utterances of political equality at Birmingham? On the contrary does it not contradict that policy? The President has made a complete surrender to the lily-white who have been the Negro from party councils. He has placed the leadership in the hands of such men as Bascom Slemp of Virginia. Colored men were driven out of the Republican convention by order of Slemp. On July 26, C. B. Miller, Joe Keeling and Houston were delegated to come to Georgia and re-establish the central committee and put a new committee in charge because the President said there must be white leadership without regard to regularity, and the rules of the party. We again ask, does this comport with the President's demand for non-violence as advocated at Birmingham?

Race Needs Unlimited Vision.
(Attorney Walter M. Farmer in the Chicago Broadax.)
What right has the President or any other official, speaking in his official capacity to give advice and to fix metes and bounds within which a certain group of American citizens must race in its struggle upward is not in need of barriers, but of unlimited vision, of room for expansion, of a friendly atmosphere, in which to act, without restrictions or limitations, arbitrarily set by the flat of unjust discrimination. Nor does the President want so much advice gratuitously. We had expected the President to suggest that the colored man strive to become the best possible American citizen. Why should he strive to be colored? He should be worth the worth of American citizenship be limited by racial lines or the color of a man's skin? The President wants the colored group to stand apart, pursuing its own inherited traditions, preserving the traditions and race pride. The suggestions amount to nationalation within a nation. This is not only impossible, but undesirable and the President in advocating such an anomalous position has placed himself in a very embarrassing attitude to the least. The colored group wishes to be the very privilege and every immunity that belongs to American citizenship.
Great Danger in Things Said.
(James Weldon Johnson in New York
If the things which Mr. Harding demanded for the colored man can be achieved in the South and in the United States, while at the same time the race, either voluntarily or involuntarily, can be into a completely separate and distinct nation in the nation, an element considered either too different or too inferior for common human association with the rest, it will entail the working of a miracle. Such a thing has not come to the whole history of the h.m. race. It seems that in developing his speech President Harding inadvertently betrays the illogic of such a supposition. Following the very paragraph in which he stresses the perseverance of the races, which must be fostered rather than diminished, he makes the following statement:
"The one thing we must sedulously avoid is the development of group and class organizations in this country, which are too much heard too much about the labor vote, the business vote, the Irish vote, the Scandinavian vote, the Italian vote, and so on. But the demagogues who would array class against class and group against group have fortunately succeeded in the effort. That is because, despite theagogues, the idea of our oneness as Americans has risen superior to every appeal to mere class and group."
We hope the net result of the President's speech be good, but THERE GREAT ING INSEOME_THINGS_HE_SAID.
"Most Dangerous Doctrines Ever Uttered."
(Dr. W. A. Sinclair in guardian.) The speech delivered by President Harding in Birmingham, Ala., for hardiness in most dangerous, perilous, destructive, hall-born deprinnes that have ever been uttered in fifty years of our development not only by a President of the United States but by any responsible cabineer. The colored race cannot afford to ignore these utterances; unquestionably great harm has already been done and incalculable injury to our race will certainly follow. *
It's shameful Exploitation. Pity The White House has lowered its prestige and dignity. *
President Harding and the Colored American.
(From the Boston Guardian.) In regard to President Harding's speech at Birmingham, Ala., on Wednesday of this week, October 26, 1921, we would say to this Republican President that persons of color most of whose United States of America, most of whose great-grandparents and great-grandparents were born in the U. S. A. see no reason why they should be expected to be willing to be simply black people and not fully and wholly Americans, any more than Jews born here are expectable to be willing to be simply Jews, Irish or Italianans simply Italianans, and so on with the many race varieties here.
We demand that there be no distinction put upon us for race or color in public matters that is not put on every other race in this, our common country. We know as the white Americans know that there is no essential difference between human beings of different races, a reference except in color or feature between white races here as between Americans of color and those called white. Nature has amply proved this before the eyes of all Americans with the aid of the white man's impositions upon colored women. We object to being made the only everlasting race in the world, an enforced separation in the public life of the country. It must come over our everlasting protest.
The crux of the matter is this: Why does not President Harding ask us to be good and true and efficient American? Why does not he ask white and black to be alike one uniform element of patriotic Americans, none trying to be good as white folks, none to be good as black folks, but all one common American citizen?

The President in Alabama.
(From the Richmond Planet.)
President Harding says that there must be such education among the colored people as will enable them to develop their own leaders, capable of understanding and sympathizing with such differentiation between the races as he has suggested—leaders who will inspire the race with proper ideals of citizenship and the United States honorable destiny, an important participation in the universal effort for advancement of humanity as a whole. This kind of education has been in operation for nearly half a century. We are dumbfounded to learn that the principles of the United States did not know it. The Southland is full of this kind of leaders. Dr. Booker T. Washington did his part in developing this kind of leadership. In later years he realized that he had gone too far to the extent of elimination of the principles of manhood, without whichever principle was the full height of American citizen.
He declared that the race problem was one noticeable in Africa, in South America, in the South Seas and of the world. Just how it can be a problem in Africa, the home of the Black Man is an amusing situation and a most interesting one. If the black people beating the white people white people doing in the land of the Ethiopian But then this is raising another question. It seems to us that President Harding might have cited quotations from that Holy Bible upon which he took his oath of office and which he took the mental principles, the observance of which will settle all problems, racial and otherwise.
The foregoing is an excerpt from a three-column editorial in the Planet, a magazine, edited by Hon. John Mitchell Jr., which is too long to print in full.
President's Southern Speech.
(From the Wilmington (Del.)
Advocate.)
"Faith Falters, Hope Falters." (From the Chicago Whil.)
Intelligence stands agast, Patriotism trembles, Faith totters, Hope falters, and the finer sensibilities of the black men are shocked and stunned for the "ideas of March" have hardened the lip of Warren Harding, Republican President of the United States, words have fallen whose effect are as destructive and deadly as the poisonous germs which flew from Pandora's ill-fated box. The words "ideas of March" upon us and according to his expressed dictum we are doomed eternally to be a race of slaves and scullions.
The speech of Mr. Harding's upon the race issues delivered in Birmingham on October nineteen hundred and sixty-five one sealed and stamped a policy which relegates the black people of America to conditions which are abhorrent, repugnant and disgusting to any soul absolute and unqualified for liberty, absolute and unqualified. Out great jargon of words and a scramble meles of incoherent thought a few ideas can be culled and garnered. These ideas taken collectively propaganda which leaves the black man in a precarious condition indeed.
He said that it is "a question of recognizing fundamental, eternal and incapable differences." He has encouched himself in infinite egotism and has even soared into the realms of the world, and he has everlastingly different all other people, no culture can make, exalt him, no deeds of valour can elevate him, no stroke of evolution can raise him; according to Mr. Harding, neither time nor eternity nor even God Almighty in all His Majestic power can change. What the eternal differences are we cannot understand. Mr. Harding knows no more of what the future holds than we. It strikes us, however, that he has not formed his opinions upon scientific knowledge but upon prejudices.
Racial amalgamation there cannot be misunderstood is another one of the President's boaz, one of the greatest anthropologists in the world, has declared that a few centuries hence a swarthy race will be in 'America in place of the whites and blacks. The amalgamation of races has gone on through the great brown and petty prejudices of more than 100,000 unable to check it, but alas—it must not be—Harding says is mustn't.
In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised.
Give the black people economic and political equality but social equality never, quoth the President. Thunderous applause followed, black people back into hysterical ecstacles. The black people into hysterical ecstacles. The pathetic fall of ignorance could not appreciate the sinister and insidious meaning of what the President had just said. Whatever social equality means it is allowed to all other people it should not be denied to us. If the black people denial of inter-marriage of whites and blacks, it means that white men can seduce our daughters and sisters and we cannot compel the scoundrels to marry them because these thieves of virtue are placed upon a higher social status. Helpless women whom they have failed ruined. If social equality means intermingling of races and indiscriminate association, and that as Mr. Harding says is impossible, we can expect no equality in politics and society. From various sources petitions have been sent to the President begging that no black people be appointed into political positions which puts white people under their control; and no appointments have been made as yet which prove recognition on the basis of strong political equality is thus being maintained. Political social connection. Imagine a black man as governor of a state or a member of the President's cabinet. This cannot be as long as America stamps the sign of social leprosy upon black people. Political equality without social equality is a joke and nothing.
Three hundred years of contact with the white man has made the colored man in this country what he is. He has nothing to claim by his own hands, but he bibed the white man's blood, religion, manners, customs, and has adapted himself to the requirements of a white civilization and is an absolute counterpart to the colored man lives under American rule he cannot be anything but American.
"Cannot Have Political Equality Social Inferiors."
(From the Chicago Enterprise.) In the first place the President says that the colored man should not aspire for social equality. In answer that statement we wish to say that if for social equality he must accept and be satisfied with social inequality. Social inequality would mean that the colored man is either on a social plane above the white man or on a plane below the white man. It is true, the white man would aspire to be on the same plane with the colored man, so it follows that when Harding says that the colored man should not aspire for social equality, he should and should continue to occupy an inferior social position. We wish further to suggest that while the President says that the colored man should have political and economic equality, he would be impossible to have either if he were regarded as a social inferior. Again the President says, "Racial amalgamation there cannot be." Evidently Mr. Harding did not have on his glasses when this statement was made, because he could have seen the color of the head. He might not be too harsh to say that the white man has been enjoying the social equality at night which he objects to us having during the day. In fact, during the Presidential campaign, if we had hardened himself was a product of a racial amalgamation:
Quoting another passage of the President's discourse: "The one thing we must sedulously avoid, is the development of group organizations in this country. We have heard too often that the president should dinavian vote, the Italian vote, and so on. The idea of our oneness as Americans should rise superior to every appeal." But why, when it comes to the colored man does the President say, "We understand the divergence socially and racially." Complete divergence socially and racially means incrowcars, incrowcars

The President Has Spoken. (From the Denver Star.)
The first utterance by the President on the status of the Negro in America comes at a time when silence is no longer endured and union a subject wholly uncalled for. 'Tweer better that he remained in Washington and kept silent than to advocate social equality as a cause to the black man, when 8 millions of the white colonized man has suffered enough from the so-called friends of the Republican Party (?). Whey does the President of the United States advocate social equality as a cause to the black man, when 8 millions of the white colonized man has upheld one-eighth the population of this country? If the colored woman was good enough to give birth to their children she ought to be good enough to marry them. Why did the Supreme Court uphold jimmy Carter's South? Why was that social equality? Why do departments at Washington discriminate and segregate the colored employees? Is that social equality? Why doodge the issue? Why do the lily-white Republican bars colored men and women who are that social equality? Why doesn't President Carter employ colored men to positions they have held since 1865? Is that social equality? Thousands of our sons lay asleep when the torn bosom of France who died for this country of justice that you portray is further to the social life of our race. We will stand ready to defend our race in the sunshine of whose society we are ever happy. We want equality that is given every other citizen under the Constitution. We will accept the Constitution. The President has spoken. Let the historians write: "Failed."

No Sharp Line Between Politics and Social Life.
(From the New Republic, New York). The South knows, as President Harding ought to know, that you can't draw a sharp line between politics and social life. The offices of a president are not positions of social leadership. With complete political equality the state of Mississippi might easily elect a Negro as governor. Would such a result be accepted by Mississippiians? Or would a race problem unfortunately is not one that admits of easy general solutions

CRINGING AWAKENS CONTEMPT.
We cannot win by blinking at facts or by ignoring fundamental principles. Editor J. Q. Adams of the ST. PAUL APPEAL is sound to the core and we shall all have to accept his kind of leadership if we expect to attain our full stature and status under the American Constitution. Cringing may be comfortable for the time being put it is mighty humiliating for all the time thereafter and it awakens contempt for us as it should in the minds and hearts of our adversaries.
Editor Adams points the way, whether we accept his advice or not and sooner or later he will blaze the way to our financial, industrial and political enfranchisement in this country where none will dare molest us or make us afraid. Wise, colored leaders will take notice and govern themselves accordingly.
The foregoing from The Planet of Richmond, Va., edited by Hon. John Mitchell, Jr., who recently polled 20,000 votes as candidate for governor of the state, is pleasing to the editor but we accept it as a tribute to the cause for which THE APEALH has fought for nearly forty years rather than a personal compliment.
JIM CROW LEADERS.
We present in this issue a symposium of views of colored editors in various parts of the country on the speeches of President Harding in Birmingham, Ala., and Atlanta, Ga.
One of the strongest of these is an editorial from the Richmond (Va.) Planet, by that fearless journalist, John Mitchell, Jr. Referring to the desire of President Harding to have more "ngro" leaders developed, The Plaret says:
THE SOUTH IS FULL OF THIS KIND OF LEADERS. DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON DID HIS PART IN DEVELOPING THIS KIND OF LEADERSHIP. IN LATER YEARS HE REALIZED THAT HE HAD GONE TOO FAR, TO THE EXTENT OF ELIMINATING THE PRINCIPLES OF MANHOOD, WITHOUT WHICH NO RACE CAN RISE TO THE FULL HEIGHT OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP.
This is a strong statement yet it is absolutely true. No single thing in the history of the colored people in the United States has done so much to prevent the full attainment of citizenship as that speech of Booker Washington delivered in Atlanta, Ga., in 1895.
THE SIN OF SILENCE
To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test. Had no voice to 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.
Since then the descent to hell has been swift and sure and the depths were sounded when the other day, Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, stood by the side of the Grady monument in Atlanta, pronounced a eulogy on Henry W. Grady, the most bitter, dangerous and insidious enemy of the colored people that the country has produced, declared that the race question must be settled by the segregation of American citizens. Lured on by the enthusiastic reception by the South of the B. Washington speech and the white man's "good negro" pat on the shoulder, the jimcrow leaders' tribe has increased so enormously that it is now a menace to be reckoned with in every community in which there are a hundred colored men.
Before he died Booker Washington repented in bitterness what he had done and longed for life to wash out his unwise course but it was too late. Although it may be news to many, it is a fact that after his death an article, written by him, was printed in a leading magazine, in which he repudiated segregation which he had so long championed. No greater calamity could befall the colored people than the harvesting of a new crop of "jimcrow-negro leaders."
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.
There is already a Federal Employees' Union in which no color line is drawn and to which federal employees of all races, creeds and colors are admitted, so the formation of a segregated organization is not only not necessary but positively dangerous.
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 employes of various races, creeds and colors.
Men and women, do not segregate yourselves.
Editor's note: William T. Francis, Esq., the well known St. Paul attorney, whose name has been published as a member of the "advisory committee" of the organization that he is not connected with the league and knows nothing of it except what he read in the newspapers.
TROUBLE WITH THE SOUTH
In an article in the Smart Set Mr. H. L. Mencken, a Southern man, says, that the South is still suffering from the debacle of fifty-six years ago. He says:
"That debacle almost obliterated civilization in the whole region, and so the surviving Confederates took to sentimentalizing the civilization that had collapsed and departed. That sentimentalization, in the end, became a sort of sacred duty, a benevolent

mania, a furious and unintelligible cult, and the Southerner himself a walking sarcophagus of dead ideas. . . . The result was that human thought in the whole region was reduced to a mere poll-parroting of formulae. The Southerner became the most indiotic patriot ever heard of in terrestrial history. Everything Southern took on sacrosanctity in his eyes, from the swinish politics of the jobseekers who herded the cracker and Confederate veteran vote to the barbaric theology of the Methodist and Baptist dervishes, and from the pious nonsense of the roving Prohibitionists, free-silver fanatics and generalized chauauquans to the revolting inde-encies of the Southern cotton-mill owners. All conceivable human problems were precipitated into platitudes. To question these platitudes became downright dangerous to life and limb."
A SHAFT OF JEFF DAVIS.
It will be recaled that Louisville, Kentucky never yielded allegiance to the illegal Confederate government and yet the Daughters of the Confederacy have selected that city as the site for a monument 351 feet high to the memory of Jefferson Davis. Davis was in no sense a great statesman, simply a clever politician, but as an ardent advocate of the Confederacy whose capstone was slavery, he typifies a doctrine which cost our country a million lives and a billion in gold.
The monument will serve no useful purpose as the cause it glorifies is dead. The Daughters of the Confederacy ought to devote the money they will spend on the Davis shaft to aiding the veterans who fought to preserve our liberties, rather than waste it on a memorial to the man whose life was given to the destruction of his native land.
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?
Under the heading "Gamaliel Emulates Gilliean," the Republican Publicity Association is sending out to Republican newspapers a lot of dope comparing President Harding to Jesus Christ, but the resemblances are not many. Christ did not teach that there were "fundamental, eternal and unescapable differences" between human beings. Rich and poor, bond and free, black and white all looked alike to the Gilliean.

Comments On President's Speeches
A close study of the President's speech as to its effect upon the colored people of this country, The Argus sees danger, grave danger in the President's stand on what he calls "social equality." In the first place we believe it ill-advised that he as President of the United States should have attempted to discuss a subject which he himself admits does not exist.
The question of political, economical and educational equality is impossible so long as the white people of the South, yes, of the North or elsewhere being warned of the question of social equality. It is an appeal to race prejudice and it finds its way into very economic and civil phase of America's life.
We want to be men, free men, enjoying every right that others enjoy, limited only by our ability. We want to breathe the sunlight of God's love in the "Land of the free and the home of the brave," and be anything we are big enough to be.
No More Blind Allegiance to Republican Party.
(From the Star, Newport News, Va.) The President may be assured that he will never live to see the colored man pay the same blind allegiance to the Republican party which has marked his conduct in the past. Like other groups in this country, the colored man's support will go to the party which offers the nearest approach to the giving of the race the same rights and privileges extended to other citizens of the country. But for the failure of ex-President Wilson to keep his pre-election promises, Mr. Rarding would never have gotten the solid colored vote, which was cast for him in his election to the Presidency, and now that President Harding has handed the colored brother the same sop which marked their treatment by Mr. Wilson, he will be governed by far different conditions in his support of parties in the future.
Wrong in Six Vital Points
(1) The denial of social equality to the Negro; (2) the plan of supporting such Negro leaders as will acquiesce in this denial, and in utilizing white control of Negro schools to further increase the number; (3) the claim of inherent Negro inferiority; (4) the unwritten Southern law that 'black men cannot be white men', which, after elimination of color change as a recognized impossibility, simply means that black men cannot enjoy all the rights and privileges of white men, citizenship enjoyed by white men, citizenship and aliens; (5) the South's plan for exclusive industrial education as against any higher education for Negroes; (6) the South's noisy opposition to racial amalgamation while silently indulging in its practice."
Studiously Avoids Lynching.
(From the Washington Tribune.) There are two distinct views of this speech. One is that on the whole it was a clear-cut one for a white man to make in the South. Another view is that it reads the colored man out of the Republican party and flounts the red flag of "social equality." While the President was on the race question he might have spoken on the South's great pastime—lynching. However, he studiously avoids it.
Dangerous and Undemocratic. (From the Crisis.)
"Mr. Harding meant that the American colored man must acknowledge that it was a wrong and a disgrace for Booker T. Washington to dine with President Roosevelt! I answer to this incomceivably dangerous and unpatriotic demand must come with the unimaginable of 12 million voices, enforced by the voice of every American who believes in humanity."
Should Have Left Out Discussion of Social Equality.
(From the Advocate, Cleveland, Ohio)
The President should have left the social equality phase out entirely. We would have been content with his utterances on the phases of equal opportunity, the right to vote, but frankly we don't like the bitter-sweet portion with which he would have us suffice ourselves.
Colored Vote No Longer Wanted.
(From the Philadelphia Tribune.)
As the spokesman of the Republican party of the Nation the President serves notice that that party no longer wishes to be burdened with the responsibility of the solid colored vote of the country.
The colored man, according to Mr. Harding in his Birmingham speech, "should seek to be the best possible black man, and not the best possible imitation of the white man." This is the Harding standard for the race. We admit that in many respects the white man is a poor model for imitation, as in lynching, discriminatory practices against his friends and his arrogant assertion of superiority by color, but why does not Mr. Harding rise us to become the best possible men to forget distinctions on both sides apart in course, we know how hard it is to be logical and at the same time avoid offending the South while a recipient of its hospitality, but it does seem amusing, as well as pathetic, that in the same speech he says: "The one thing we must sedulously avoid is the development of group or class organizations in this country." Gee, but it is hard to straddle!

The time to feather ones nest, is when one has something to feather it will. The rainy day, as we call it, is sure to come.
It may came in the form of sickness, or something else, at any time; and, it will surely come in the form of old age, if one lives long enough. If you are simply earning money and spending it, that is an awful thing.
Mr. Blank earned from $100 to $200 per month for a dozen years, and then lost his job in the midst of a financial depression. In the meantime the money had gone to the bow wows; and, now, with a wife and two babies on his hands, and no job, and no money, he was in a bad fix.
I hope to encourage you to put one-tenth of your income in a savings bank as a permanent reserve fund.
I hope to encourage you to get a home to own your own, on the installment plan, if necessary, but get a home of your own.
Thus, with your own home and with your savings bank account increasing from week to week, you will have something to go on in case of reverses, and something to live on when old age overtakes you.

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.
