Bible Thought for Today
GIVING AND GETTING: — Give,
and it shall be given unto you; good
measure, pressed down, and shaken
together, running over, shall men
give into your bosom. For with the
same measure that ye mete withal it
shall be measured to you again.
Luke 6:38
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
One hundred and thirteen years ago tomorrow, Abraham Lincoln was born into this world. No other American, and very few men of any nation or period have entered so intimately into the personal experience of millions as Abraham Lincoln. The words of him who never had a year in school are used in teaching college students the highest possibilities of language. His coined phrases are worn smooth and dateless in current speech. But more than that, his habit of thought has guided the thinking of errand boy and President. His faith quickens the faith of us all.
Abraham Lincoln was not a speculative philosopher, an originator of systems of thought. But he was one of the greatest exponents and defenders of truth in its applications and illustrations in human experience that the world has ever seen. His life and words—which are inseparable—perfectly teach the balance between thought and act, principle and practice, general truth and particular fact.
As the years roll by he rises higher and higher in the estimation of those he left behind.
Would to God that we had more Lincoln in these troubled times.
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
A. H.
"The Great Emancipator," the 113th Anniversary of Whose Birthday. Will Be Celebrated Tomorrow.
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."
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
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.
WHO IS HE?
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 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 not 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 plutoor, 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."
THE MAN WHO DARES
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 courtenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner.
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 savages 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.
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 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 APPEAL has fought for nearly forty years
rather than a personal compliment.
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 about. 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."
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 LATER 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 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 GOOD VIEWPOINT.
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 colored woman instead of Negro or Negress. 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 great 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.
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.
One of the greatest victories of right over color prejudice has just been won in Louisiana in the case of Miss Lillie Taylor, who has legally secured absolute right to property valued at over $29,000,000 to which she is heiress. Every effort, that white men could conjure up, was made to wrest the property from her but she finally won and now is, probably, one of the richest women in the world.
That "the way of the transgressor is hard," especially if he is colored, has been terribly verified in New York in the case of William Burke, an 18-year-old colored youth who was sentenced to ten years in Sing Sing prison for the larceny of fifty cents' worth of bread.
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.
(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 treatment as is given to other groups of American citizens. One Lasker, who 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 promised in the campaign, and if young men are to have appointment 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 holders defenders of segregation.
(From the Chicago Whip.)
Dr. J. R. Crossland of St. Joseph, Mo., has been appointed to handle the claims of the black veterans of the late World War. The claims of the black soldiers are the same as those of the white and Dr. Crossland has only accepted a Jim Crow job. Perry Howard, another prominent "Uncle Tom" politician, also accepted a Jim Crow job. 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 R. 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 proof that there is yet time. The one proof that there is to Mr. Russell of black infertility is one difference in skull contour. Far greater differences are to be found as relates 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. Brisbane's column, but he should be made aware that men of science have often had occasion to laugh at his efforts to parade as scientific. A little reading of Thomas's "Source Book for Social Origins" and Boas's "Mind of Primitive Man" would stand Mr. Brisbane in good stead.
CASWELL W. CREWS.
4230 Champlain Ave., Chicago.
Mr. Harding Down South.
To the Editor:
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 birth and color, but why does not Mr. Harding advise us to become the best possible men, and forget distinctions on both sides apart from merit? Of 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!

TO MY PATRONS: After an absence of several months from the city, I have returned with the determination to increase the trade at the COSMOPOLITAN GROCERY.

WHY THE WORD "ADVERTISEMENT."
Under a recent ruling of the United States Postoffice Department, publishers are compelled to "label all editorials or other reading matter, other than displayed advertisements, for the publication of which money or other valuable consideration is paid accepted, or promised, with the word ADVERTISEMENT printed in full."
Increase Advertising Is Babson's Advice
Roger W. Babson, statistician and business authority, is advising American business men and manufacturers to renew and even increase their advertising. He says: "It takes no little courage to go counter to the popular current and spend money for advertising when immediate returns are answered in manpower. I am convinced that the man who has the foresight and courage will gain advantage—a running start—that will carry him through the coming periods of improvement and prosperity. Take the aggregate course."
Homemakers Learn to Conservate Time.
Many homemakers over the state cooperated with home demonstration agents and university extension specialists last year in carrying on demonstrations and keeping records. In 81 communities, adopting projects, 211 home demonstrations were established. About 220 women made and are using fireless cookers, and 83 installed commercial cookers. Women carrying on home demonstrations in time saving by using a fireless cooker over a period of five months, reported a saving of 351 hours of time. A good homemade fireless cooker which will last for several years can be made, all complete, for $4.50.
