declare ed that the ono set factor In any
real and practical solution OF the negro
problem was the en- tire Eerara ton OF tho
races In social, scholastic, religious and
domestic affairs. 4 &.
q When Washington arose to speak he
virtually agreed with the bishop by say
ing the problem could not be settled
by amalgamation or by deportation of the
negroes, but by earnest sympathy and
corporation of the races, although his
chief argument vas for il1crea sed facili-
ties for education and encoura cement for
those Of his people in the South.
b Misrepresentation Greer presided n over
the meeting. and said the question was
one to'be solved only by Christian stand-
ards. He then introduced DR.. Strange.
whose topic was THE Responsibilities OF
American Christian Civilization to the
Negro Race. s2
.'We are brothers in all the best feel
ings and we white OF the South feel
our responsibilities for the black man.

'The whites OF the South must see TO
IT that there Is complete separation Of
the races in schools, In churches and IN
domestic life. That is the one fixed factor.
1t Is best for the whites and blacks and
hest for human progress. That being set
tied absolutely so as not to give the mis-
erable machine politician n chance to
