SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1922 Bible Thought for Today GIVING AND GETTING: — Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mee withal it shall be measured to you again.— Luke 6:38 THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. Postmaster General Hays, shortly before signing his half million dollar contract with the movie moguls, came out strongly against the attempt in some quarters to prohibit by law the publication of racing news. The movement had gained such headway that its friends succeeded in attaching a rider to a bill pending in the House of Representatives so that racing news would be prohibited transportation through the mails, along with lottery and cheating devices. "I was not consulted about the provision," declared Mr. Hays, "and I hope this section will not pass. The whole bill had better be defeated, in my opinion, than to add this additional curtailment of the freedom of the press. There has been a very strong tendency of late in that direction, and I am sure it is essential that such a tendency should be checked. I am reminded of Voltaire's statement, 'I wholly disapprove what you say, but I will defend with my life your right to say it.'" There are other ways of removing the race track gambling, evil than through the indirect method of prohibiting the transmission of news thereof through the mails. There are probably certain crimes committed for the sole purpose of achieving notoriety for the criminal through press account of his exploits. But that does not mean that newspapers cannot publish a news story of the incident. Crime is sought to be checked through laws directed at the perpetrator. The racing evil can be curbed in a similar direct fashion. The people are entitled to the news of the country, whether it is good or bad, and to curtail the freedom of the press in giving it to them, strikes at the very root of popular government. The press dispatches say that the President has picked a "negro" to be Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia. THE APPEAL has never heard of the man who it is said to have been selected. Who is he? Has THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cone The human race has test.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. he been selected, for the reason that like all of the other colored men who have been given places under the present regime, he will head a jimcrow office? Will the office of Recorder of Deeds be a segregated place? The colored people who supported Harding have a right to know. And the colored people ought to rise in their might, if they have any, and protest against any more jimcrow business. BRISBANE'S POISON GAS. Arthur Brisbane, who contributes a column headed "Today" to the Hearst newspapers, is considered a great writer, but THE APEAL has noticed for years that he has great bitterness against colored people in his writings. Here is some of his latest dope: President Harding told the colored men and women in the South that it was a mistake for them to talk about "social equality." said he: "This is a question of recognizing a fundamental, eternal and inescapable difference." That earnest young Socialist plutorat, Charles E. Russell, rebukes President Harding and wants to know what PROOF there is of a difference between Negro and white races. "Show me," says he. In any natural history museum the polite attendant will "show him." He will lead Mr. Russell to a row of skulls, and say, "This is a Negro of one type; this is a Negro of another. This is a white man." A 5-year-old child can be taught the difference. And to change the skull except by interbreeding, which is not desired, would take many thousands of years. To lift up the bone of a forehead, making it half an inch nearer to the perpendicular, would take 10,000 years at least. There is the "show me" answer, most puzzling to those that would LIKE equality, but that don't want to deceive themselves. A great naturalist said, "The difference between a low type of African savage and a highly developed white man is greater than the difference between that savage and a blade of grass." That, unfortunately, is true, and intelligent Charles E. Russell knows it. Let us not deceive ourselves or others, even in the noble cause of brotherly love. Those that are deceived, no matter how kindly, lose their way. The bunk about the African savage and a blade of grass seems to be a favorite quotation of Mr. Brisbane for he has used it at least a half dozen times a year for the last ten years. Other great naturalists have said that there are no fundamental differences between the white and black races and the Christ has said that of one blood were created all nations. The colored people in America are not African savages and probably half of the so-called' white people in the United States have more or less Negro blood in their veins. President Garfield termed Alexander Hamilton "the greatest man who ever trod American soil," and yet it has been proved that Hamilton had Negro blood in his veins. The following under the heading, "The Colored Man's Viewpoint," is from the Chicago Tribune: I desire to compliment you upon the fact that you have taken up the practice of using colored man or col- ored woman instead of Negro or Ne- 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 the world, the courtena the hearts of friends 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. se when we should wards out of men. is climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. he must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. gress. This is attested by an article which appeared on the front page of Wednesday's Tribune and another in this morning's Tribune. I have not at all forgotten that your paper at one time graciously agreed to capitalize the word Negro. Although the word Negro is a term which some persons of color dislike, yet it was thought a half loaf was better than none at all, and so we contented ourselves with the capitalization. We cannot commend too highly your use of the word colored in the place of Negro and are hoping that the substitute will be both general and permanent. Chairman Civics Committee, Appomattox Club. It is a very important thing for a newspaper like the Chicago Tribune to use colored instead of Negro as a racial designation. Probably no one thing has contributed so much to the contempt in which colored people are held than the use of the word Negro in describing the colored people of the United States. And it's a lie. The colored people are not Negroes. The are, and they ought to proclaim themselves, AMERICANS. THE K. K. K. BARS GILPIN. The tour of Charles Gilpin, the colored actor, has been abandoned so far as the south is concerned, temporarily at least. Adolph Klauber, under whose management Gilpin was playing in "The Emperor Jones," sent him into Virginia and had planned to send him further south. In Richmond the show did well and it began to appear the south would overlook the fact that Gilpin is a colored man. But now Broadway hears a quick change in plans came about. A letter with a Ku Klux Klan signature was received by Gilpin while in Virginia. It advised him not to attempt to continue in the south with his company, which contains a number of white players. It was then that the route was changed and the troupe is now in Ohio. GEN. MANGIN HAS RIGHT IDEA We derive very much satisfaction out of the position taken by the French General Mangin who recently said: “An end must be put to this absurd legend of the inferiority of the colored races. It is based solely on the tradition of slavery and is not at all flattering to the white races!” So declares Gen. Mangin, whose utterance is the most authoritative of those who have taken up advocacy of the cause of the colored peoples, following the winning of the Goncourt literary prize by the Martinique writer, Rene Maran. Mangin is the great champion of the colored army theory, holding that only by training and arming her colonial subjects can France redress the balance in face of more populous Germany. Their fighting value he proved in the war, for "Manger" Mangin's colonial army was always in the thick of the French offensives. The general gained his affection for the colored races during the twenty years he spent in colonial military and administrative commands. He is not merely a soldier, but has considerable competence in literary talent, which gives weight to his remarks on culture among the colored races. "There really is an intellectual elite among the colored races, whom liberty has introduced to our culture," who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the nces of relatives or Charles Sumner he asserted in an interview. "And experience has demonstrated that this elite possesses the ability to excel in every domain of human activity." HARDING GETS ANOTHER RAP. At the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held in New York last week, Charles Edward Russell, orator and author welcomed the advent of the "new Negro" who, he declared, was ready to stand up for his rights. He also ridiculed President Harding's assertion that there was an "impassable gulf" between colored and white people in the United States and advocated that, before attempting to lead the world to disarmament, the United States disarm the lyncher within her own borders. And so say we all! Here is one paragraph from Mr. Russell's speech: "I must frankly say to the gentleman who said that, President Harding," said Mr. Russell, "that you don't know what you're talking. If this great gulf you speak of between the races which you speak of exists, what does it look like? Have you a photograph of it? There is no such gulf, and the only limit to the development of you colored people is the one you place yourselves." 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 do 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 wil 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 John. 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 had in a recent 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 "negro" 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 LATTER YEARS HE REALIZED THAT HE HAD GONE TOO FAR, TO THE EXTENT OF ELIMINATING THE PRINCIPLES OF MAN HOOD, 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. 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 negre" 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." TRUE TO FORM At the Detroit Methodist conference Emmett J. Scott declared "The Negro does not ask social equality and never has asked it. All he asks is social justice." But, pray how can the colored man get "social justice unless he has every kind of equality before the law and in public opinion?" Dominant people do not give exact justice to people they consider their inferiores. Scott was private secretary to Booker Washington for nearly twenty years and was well trained to reiterate that the colored man does not want that and other things which would please the South. Now that he is away from Tuskegee he ought to learn a new tune. NEARLY $3,000,000 WILLED FOR UP- LIFT OF COLORED PEOPLE. LIFT OF COLORED PEOPLE. Information has reached THE APPEAL that bequests of nearly $3,000,000 for educational, charitable and development work among colored people are made in the will of Mrs. Calista S. Mayhew, who died Dec. 19, 1921, in Newark, N. J. This will be splendid if it is not used along any of the jimcrow lines. Protest always pays. For some time the people of India have been making "silent protest" against the many injustices from which they suffer and now it seems that results are about to be achieved. The government has, introduced several bills for the repeal of nearly all of the repressive and restrictive laws now on the statute books. And because they have protested, England will give independence to the Egyptians. Down South, Moton et al are lauding the brutal people who have stolen the rights of the colored people and restricted them to a jimcrow place in the social scheme. Five men, two of them colored, have been sentenced to life imprisonment in the Oklahoma state penitentiary for complicity in the lynching of Jake Brooks, a colored packing house worker. All of the men entered pleas of guilty. The Irish having fought for 760 years to gain freedom intend to keep it at all odds. The Irish Free State is not yet in official being, but the minister of defense is making plans for a powerful standing army. Six members of Howard's orchestra, a Columbus organization, were taken to the outskirts of Miami, Florida, by masked men, flogged and told to leave the city within twenty-four hours. (APPEAL Editorial Sept. 3, 1921.) THE APPEAL is sorry to note that the color line has been drawn in the new Veterans' Bureau by the organization of a "Colored Division" and the appointment of Dr. J. R. A. Crossland as its head. Crossland lost a son who fell "fighting for democracy" in France, and it is a poor reward for the father to be given a segregated bureau. It is also said that he was an effective speaker in the last campaign, in which it was given out that the Republican party would abolish segregation in the departments at Washington. If these things are true Crossland deserves better treatment at the hands of the victors, and he also should have refused the appointment as undemocratic and demanded the same treatment as is given to other groups of American citizens. One Lasker, a Jew, was made head of the U. S. Shipping Board. Representatives of other racial groups have been given places, but not in segregated bureaus. No President of the United States would dare offer a Jew a place as the head of a segregated Jewish bureau. There is no such place and never will be. Only colored people are segregated by this alleged democracy. Some people may think that the "special" appointments which have been handed out by the present Republican administration are forward movements, but they are really nails in the coffin of democracy and are dangerous to the social and political status of the colored people. The Administration ought to cut out these "special" jobs, eliminate segregation which was promised in the campaign, and if colored men are to have appointments let them be on a level with those given to other groups of American citizens. Better no places at all than those which lower the status of the race and automatically make their defenders of segregation. (From the Chicago Whip.) From the Chicago Whip) Dr. J. R. Crossland of St. Joseph, Mo., has been appointed to handle the claims of a black veterans of the late World War II. The same of the black soldiers are the same as those of the white and Dr. Crossland has really accepted a Jim Crow job. Perry Howard, another prominent "Uncle Tom" politician, also accepted a Jim Crow job. As long as we take these political handouts, as long as our "leaders" are too hungry to refuse them, of course they will be tendered our race. Challenging Mr. Brisbane's Challenge. Sir: Mr. Brisbane in his "Today" takes issue with Charles E. Russell for challenging President Harding and like thinkers to show him proof that "fundamental, eternal and inescapable differences" exist between the black and white races. Mr. Brisbane is forceful, original and brilliant; but a lightning bug is also brilliant. Unlike your other writers, manifestly fair, he is given to pronounced racial prejudice, the appointed prophet warning the white race to preserve itself while there is yet time. The only submites to Mr. Russell of black infliction is one of difference in skull shape, the greater differences are to be found and volutes to skull contour in each race than between any two races; the same is true of brain weight, convolutions and, in fact, a majority of physical and biological characteristics which are commonly taken by the layman as peculiar to a given race. I like to read Mr. Brishane's column, but he should he make aware that men of science have often had occasion to laugh at his efforts to parade as scientific. A little reading of his book "The Origins" and Boas "Mind of Primitive Man" would stand Mr. Brishane in good stead. CASWELL W. CREWS. 4230 Champlain Ave., Chicago.

He Was the Hero of the Hinckley Holocaust and the Burning of the Ill-Fated St. Paul and Duluth Train at Skunk Lake, Minn., September 1, 1894. Although Mr. John Wesley Blair had been a sick and suffering man; and was confined to his home for many months, his death on last Sunday, January 29th, was quite a shock to this community in which he had lived so long and was so highly respected by all who knew him. Mr. Blair was born April 27th, 1853 near Little Rock, Ark. He lived for a few years in the state of Illinois where he met and married Miss Emma Bell, December 28, 1881, at Henry, Ill. Mr. Blair, with his family, moved to St. Paul in 1887 and resided here until his death. He was a member of St. James A. M. e. church and was also a member of Perfect Ashlar Lodge, F. and A. M., the Constituary and Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. The deceased was a long sufferer from diabetes, but was always hopeful and cheerful and fully appreciated the loving care he constantly received from his faithful wife. The funeral of the deceased was held late residence, 517 Rondo street, Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, under the auspices of Perfect Ashlar Lodge F. and A. M., the officers of which performed the ritualistic ceremonies at the house and at the grave. The funeral ceremonies consisted of hymn by St. James A. M. e. choir, "Fade Each Earthly Joy." Prayer, Rev. W. A. Jackson, pastor of Grace Chapel C. M. E. church. tor of Grace Chapel C. M. E. church. Hymn, "Nearer My God to Thee." Remarks, Rev. George W. Camp, pastor of Zion Presbyterian church. Obituary read by Dr. H. L. J. Jones. Solo, "Face to Face," by Dr. Lillian Lewis. Funeral Sermon, Dr. H. L. P. Jones. Masonic ceremonies. The funeral was under the direction of Mrs. T. H. Lyles, interment at Oakland cemetery. The funeral was very largely attended and the floral tributes were venerable and beautiful. Mr. Blair is survived by his wife, two sons, Athol and Robert, three sisters, two brothers, brother-in-law Dr. H. J. Bell, St. Paul; sister-in-law, Mrs. Sidney Wagener, of Peoria, Ill. CARD OF THANKS. We desire to tender our sincere and heartfelt thanks to our many friends and neighbors for their aid and words of sympathy during the illness and at the death of our husband and father, John Wesley Blair. And especially do we wish to thank the donors for numerous and beautiful floral tributes. EMMA BLAIR. ATHOL BLAIR. RICHARD BLAIR. The death of Mr. Blair will doubtless, recall to the minds of the "old timley fire" at least, the terrible Hinkley fire of September 1, 1894, in which the deceased played so important a part as to gain for himself the title of "hero" and caused the people to give him a public testimonial at old Market Hall, cor. Seventh and Wabasha. The testimonial was the outcome of the personal efforts of Messrs. T. R. C Taylor, the late T. H. Lyles and J. Q. Adams, and the hall was packed to capacity. Mr. W. presided and Messrs. W. T. Francis and J. Q. Adams acted as secretaries. There were 25 vice presidents, 13 of whom are still living, and ten still in this city. The meeting was addressed by Hon. C. D. O'Brien, ex-mayor of St. Paul; Ex-Senator G. B. Dougherty, of Duluth; Hon. O. L. O'Gorman, Dr. W. H. Carey and Rev. R. C. Quarles. Letters were read from O. C. Hartman and J. E. Lobdell of Duluth, and Mrs. Anna L. Munson of St. Paul, who were passengers the brain, of Mr. Blair's bravery and heroic labors. The late Atty. F. L. McGhee with one of his eloquent and characteristic speeches presented to the hero a large gold medal, designed by W. A. Hazel. The pin bar is a fac simile in gold and red enamel of the car which Mr. Blair had charge of, and is inscribed "St. Paul and Duluth Ry," "Reclining Car Chair 56." Attached to the bar by two delicate chains is the medal proper in the shape of the cross of the region. Honor to Mr. Blair as he is evidenced: 1st. St. HINCK-LEY, Minn. On the reverse is this inscription: "Presented to John W. Blair by the Afro-Americans of St. Paul in recognition of his heroic conduct it Skunk Lake, Sept. 1, 1874." Mr. Blair received the medal and modestly replied: "I am very sorry I have not language at my command to express my gratitude for the many flattering tributes which have been paid me tonight and since that never to be forbidden occasion. All I can sav is that on that awful afternoon I only did what I thought to be my duty: the memories of this night the kinsure you have shown me shall be cherished as long as I live. I thank you." The St. Paul and Duluth Ry. also presented a handsome gold watch to Mr. Blair, procerly inscribed, and these momentes were the most highly cherished of his earthly possessions. Mrs. Sidney Wagoner, of Peoria, Ill., a sister of Mrs. Blair, who came to the city on account of Mr. Blair's death, left for her home last night, accompanied by Mrs. Blair, who will spend several weeks with her sister. There are still a great number of people out of work, and if any one knows of a job at any time, he will be helping his fellowmen by reporting same at once to Hall Bros. Barber Shop, Pittsburg, Bldg.
