VIEWS OF GEORGE F. KING.
Young Afro-American Who Believes In
Sticking to the South.

George F. King, an intelligent young
man from Norfolk, Va. was a visitor
at the Star Office a few days ago. He
is newspaper man and is especially
interested in promoting the welfare Of
his race in the south. He has written
articles for many North Carolina news
papers and recently reported the col
ored State Firemen's association at
Newbern for the daily press in sew
eral cities.
Among his contributions to the press
are articles showing why the south Is
the place for the Negro who wants to
be producer as well as consumer.
He draws striking contrast between
the opportunities of the Negro in the
north and in the south and proves to
his race that their interests are best
conserved by remaining in the south
and cuItivating amicable relations with
their white neighbors.-Newbern tN.

STOP DAMNABLE DOCTRINE.
Servant Class Gospel Lowering Race
In Eyes Of the World.

The inactivity Of the majority Of the
leaders of the race In not standing up
for the rights Of the masses at critical
times when strong moral courage, in
fuence and ability count for much is
working great injury to our present
well being and If continued will Grip
pie our future status very materially.
Some of the strongest leaders Of the
race today both in educational and pro-
fessiona life will say to their people
under the most trying circumstances:
Bear it, Do not demand anything.
Time will bring about correction Of
these evils" History bears record
that no race Of people has ever
amounted to much which did not
stand up for their rights as guaranteed
to it by the government under which
it lived. The next most hurtful thing
of all. however. is the sentiment which
is being preached by some that the
race is at its best as n servant class.
i his doctrine Is lowering the race In
the estimation of the world at large,
and 1t ought to be stopped at once.
