for a clearer recognition of the dignity
of labor. The Odium which rests upon
the work of the hand has exerted a
baneful influence the world around.
The theory that idleness is more hon
orable than tOil-that it is more re-
spectacle to consume what others have
produced than to be a producer of
wealth-has not only robbed society
of an enormous sum but it has created
an almost impossible gulf between
the leisure classes and those who
support them. Tolstoy is right in as
sorting that most of the perplexing
problems of society grow out Of the
lack of sympathy between man and
man. Because some Imagine them
selves above work while others see be-
fore them nothing but life of drudg-
cry there is constant warning and
much of bitterness. When mon and
women become ashamed of doing Moth
ing and strive to give to society full
compensation for all they receive
from society there. will be harmony
between the classes.
While Europe and America have
advanced far beyond the Orient in
placing proper estimate upon those
who work. even our nations have not
yet fully learned the lesson that em-
ployment at some useful avocation is
essential to the physical health, in
tellectual development and moral
growth. If America and England are
to meet the requirements of their
high positions they must be prepared
to present in the lives of their citizens
examples, increasing in number, of
men and women who find delight in
contributing to the welfare of their
fellows, and this ought not to be diff
cult, for every department of human
activity has fascination of its own.
The agricultural colleges and indus
trial schools which have sprung up in
so many localities are evidence that a
higher ideal is spreading among the
people.
And now we come to the most i'm
pOrtant need Of the Orient-a cOncep-
ton of life which recognizes individ-
ual responsibility to God, teaches the
brotherhood of man and measures
greatness by the service rendered. The
first established rational relation be-
tween the creature and his Creator,
the second lays the foundation for
justice between man and his fellows
and the third furnishes an ambition
large enough to fill each life with
noble effort. No service which we can
render to the less favored nations can
compare in value to this service. for
II we can but bring their people to
accept such an ideal they will rival
the Occident in their contribution to
civilization. II this ideal-which must
be accepted as the true one IL our re-
ligion Is true-had been more perfectly
illustrated in the lives of Christians
and in the conduct of Christian ma
lions there would now be less of the
white Mans Burden"
II it is legitimate to seek anothers
profit" and Ito work another's GAIN"
how can this service best be rendered?
This has been the disputed point.

employed for the propagation of that
theory of government which traces
governmental authority to the consent
of the governed. Our own nation pre-
sents the most illustrious example
known to history of great popula-
ton working out its destiny through
laws of its own making and under Of
ficials of its own choosing, although,
may add, we scarcely go beyond Eng
land in recognizing the omnipotence
of parliament fresh from the people.
1t is difficult to overestimate the po-
tency Of this conception of government
upon the progress Of a nation and, in
turning the thought of the world
away from despotism to the POSSIBLE
tiles of self government, the pioneers
OF freedom made western civilization
possible. An idea will some time rev.
olutionize an individual. community,
state, a nation or even a world, and
the idea than man possesses inalien-
able rights which the state did not
give and which the state, though it
can deny, cannot take away, has made
millions of human beings stand erect
and claim their God-given Inheritance.
While the era of constitutional liberty
is ever widening, while the tyranny
and insofence of arbitrary power are
every year decreasing, the leaders of
the worlds thought, not only the Eng
lish speaking nations but the other
Christian nations as we'll, have yet
much to do in teaching reverence for
the will of the majority and respect
for the public servants upon whom the
people bestOw authority.
The Christian nations must lead the
movement for the promotion of peace,
not only because they are enlisted I'M
der the banner of the Prince of Peace,
but also because they have attained
such degree Of intelligence that they
can no longer take pride in purely
physical victory. The belief that
mortal questions can be settled by the
shedding of human blood is a relic of
barbarism; to doubt the dynamic pow
err of righteousness is infidelity to
truth ITSELF That nation which is I'M
willing to trust its cause to the uni
versal conscience or which shrinks
| from the presentation of its claims
before tribunal where reason holds
sway betrays a lack of faith in the
soundness of its position. venture to
suggest that the worlds peace would
among the leading nations that no
declaration of war should be made un-
til the submission of the question In
controversy to an impartial court for
investigation, each nation reserving
the right to accept or reject the decis-
ion. The preliminary investigation
would in almost every instance insure
an amicable settlement and the re-
served rights would be SUFFICIENT pro-
lection against any possible injustice.

white and one Afro-American, the
latter would be discharged first !;
on the other hand, an especially
good Afro-American girl sent to
an employer would always be re-
tanned, and in some cases the en-
Iployer would request another Afro
American girl For the reason
that either good work or bad work
seems to attract more attention in
ro-American workwomen than
in white, Mrs. Woolman urged the
people to send their best girls to
the school for trade training, and
so help to build up good reputa-
ton for Afro-American work
women.
Prof. William L. Bulkley, who
is the father of the committee, de-
livered an address which was well
received. He said in part
1T is fundamental to the best
development that every man should
feel that that he has an equal opportun-
ity to compete with all other mon
in the struggle for existence.
Close up any avenue for honest
and remunerative employment,
and you in just such a degree re-
strict ones usefulness as citizen.
Garry that restriction into nearly
all the avenues of employment
where intelligence and skill are re-
quired, and you stife laudable as
.pirations, provoke encouragement
and invite all the evils that an idle
brain can conceive.
"The exact status Of the Afro
American of this city we hope to
know when our Investigations are
completed. Taking the last census
however, for our present guide, we
| find that out of $1,000 Afro-Amer-
leans over ten years of age at
work in this State, 10000 were en-
gagged in service more or less me-
nial. We do not attack menial
service as a thing bad of itself, for
till the end of time there must be
hewers of wood and drawers of
water What we do deplore is the
too common practice Of restrictions
Of the black man to certain kinds
Of employment.
That the door Of hope and of
opportunity should be closed
against any man anywhere in this
land is unfortunate. That there
should be such restrictions in this
great and glorious city Of ours is
to me a cause of deep regret.
This magnificent haven of the
Oppressed of all lands! What a
satisfaction it would be to know
that the day was not far distant

night in the interest Of the Com
mlttee for Improving the Industrial
Condition Of Negroes in New York
He made a speech along his usual
lines in advocacy of hand training,
but his casual criticism of the gen
eral policy Of Afro-American news
papers attracted most attention.
He deprecated their tendency
toward yellow journalism in featur-
ing news about oppression and
wrongs at the expense Of news Of

But it is a mere incident in the
progress Of our race. Don't hold
up such untoward incidents to dis
hearten our boys and girls"
Mr.. Washington said that the
Afro-American people, while they
needed mental discipline needed
all the hand training they could
get because their wants increased
as their education progressed.
The race needed constantly better
houses, clothing and surroundings,
and if it couldn't get them, there
would be much misery.
And the black man doesn't al
ways find the door of employment
so open in the North as it is in the
South" he added. There are
plenty of ways to spend money
here, and not so many in which to
earn it. We must teach our young
people to save their money. We
must cease to have the reputation
of spending, thriftless and pow
erty-stricken race.
at is vitality necessary for the
progress of our race that we be-
come creators of enterprise, and
not depend on the good will and
energy of other races. One ot
our greatest obstacles is that most
other races associate the color oil
our faces with poverty. We are
known as rty-stricken race.
We must profit by the example oi
