THE NIAGARA MOVEMENT.
Of New Effort for Better

ment Of the Race.
A conference was held in Buffalo
this week engaged in mapping out
lines of work for the welfare OF the
race. The conference was called by
Prof. w. E. B. Dubois of Atlanta, Ca,
author of ''The Souls of Black Folk.
Representatives were present from
fourteen states. and the result OF the
gathering was the formation of ma
tional organization to be called 1.-The
NIAGARA Movement" This Organlza-
ton has for it's officers a general secre-
tive committee, composed OF stare
secretaries, who, in turn, are the
heads of state committees. A short
platform was adopted by the confer
ence espousing the principles OF equai
education, civil, economic and polltlcal
opportunities and rights, and advocat-
ing freedom Of criticism, opposition TO
q subsidized race press and a united
effort to realize these ideals under
wise, pure and courageous leadership:
Professor Dubois was elected general
secretary of the movement and George
H, Jackson of Cincinnati, general
treasurer.
Amoag other things the movement
will work for compulsory common
school attendance for Americans ana
an increase in high school facilities IN
the South. There is denunciatlon OF
the habit of employers of importing
Afro-American laborers in emergen-
cies and then failing to afford them po-
lice protection and also the discrlmlna-
ton against Afro-American labor IN
unions. Rewards are asked for the
black soldiers. The people are urged
to vote, to respect the rights of Others
to work, to obey the laws, to be clean
and orderly to send children to school
and to respect themselves.
