The women Of Paris rose to the
emergency created by drafting the
men of the city for the army. Society
women took the place of men clerks
in stores to sell necessities. Young
girls sold tickets in the underground
stations Others acted as walters in
cafes. Grocery stores and meat shops
were run by women. Small boys were
put on as guards on the underground
trains. The motormen are aged, gray
haired men, ineligible for service in
the army. Paris enjoys the novelty
of women doing mems work, and the
women apparently do, too

OF them were reinstated. When the
bureau OF engraving and printing
moved to its new quarters it was the
original idea to segregate cOlored and
white people throughout the entire
building, but through the efforts Of
this association there is no segrega-
ton in the lunchrooms or on the roof
Fsrden. Segregation, nevertheless,
still exists in the Postof1ice Depart.
ment and in the Treasury, and pos
sibly here and there in a small de-
gree in other places.
1t still remains true that for the first
time in half century a President Of
the United States and distinguished
members of his Cabinet have deemed
1t necessary for the peace and quiet
OF these United States that clerks in
the federal service, having passed the
same examinations and receiving the
same rate of pay, must be separated
IN their work if the ancestors of any
OF them had a drop of Negro blood.
n acme cases the "colored' clerks
have been so white in appearance that
the officials themselves have made
mistakes in classifying them In other
cases clerks of all colors have pro.
tested against the attempted separa.
ton. Always the separation has
caEsed humiliation and inconvenience

MR.. WILSON AND "sEGREGATIoN."

New York.-To the Editor of THE
APPEAL. Sir: The interview OF Will
liam Munroe Trotter and the delega-
ton OF colored gentlemen with the
President Of the United States brings
forward again the burning question of
the treatment OF colored civil servants
in Washington. The whole incident
shows grimly and forcefully how deep.
~ the colored people of this country
feel the injustice which Mr.. Wilson's
government has inflicted upon them
and still inflicts.
The National Association for the Ad-
yancement Of Colored People has been
fighting segregation in federal depart
ments ever since the first rumor of it
was made public. Over a year ago an
investigator was sent to Washington
and a report printed. Since that time
representative Of the national as
sociatiCn has kept in close touch with
the local situation, and on one &C.
casion this representative appeared be-
fore the civil service committee and
helped kill the bill of Edwards OF
Georgia and Aswell of Louisiana max

segregation has disappeared.

ideals. We therefore believe it is suffi-
Gent for this board to declare that
no reason exists for any change in
the principles which have heretofore
governed the association in it's re-
Quirements for membership"
And we demand Mr. Hawkins resig-
nation. It seems to us that if Mr..
Hawkins could read between the lines
he would send in his resignation and
not wait until it was asked for. We
hope that he will remember that he
is in Providence and not in the South
nor Southwest; now let the board of
directors exact of Mr.. Hawkins an
explanation of his actions which has
caused them to be held up to the
ridicule of the world.
This was one of the times when
the Colored people were united in an
effort and they should be given much
credit for their united stand. They
are very jubilant over the victory.
The fight was led by Rev. j.. H.
Wiley and Rev. S. W. Smith for the
New England Suffrage League and Mr..
J. c. Minkins, Rev. J. Harrison and
DR.. Robinson for the N. A. A. C. P.
branch. We have already renewed
our membership. We hops, that every
reader of the Guardian will read the
letter from the pen of M. E. L. Sing
sen, white man, to the Providence
Sunday Journal and see if you think
that all our friends are dead. We wish
to say to those who live in towns
and cities where segregation is pro-
posed. fight it with all your might and
if you need any points we will gladly
give you the benefit of our experience
here. ..- ...

"The men are victimized by employ

mill near Grays Harbor has a stand
ling order with employment agencies

Men constantly are going to the
camp and 'as fast as they arrive other
hen are discharged and the new ones
put to work.
Ordinary laborers are paid about
$26 a month and board If they are
married and board themselves they
are allowed $40 month fon board.
But when a single man is i'll or other

ed $40 month for board.
when penniless men are sent out
on jobs their baggage is held for their
transportation and fee. When they
finally earn enough to. recover their
baggage they can change their cloth

The high-class labor employed in the
Single and lumber mills is better
treated, said President Brown. There
$3.50 is paid for ten hours work.

WIN An IMPORTANT VICTORY

AMSTERDAM, N. Y, Aug. 27-After
a three months strike, employees in
the printing department of theSanford
carpet mills have won the contest and
defeated the largest and most influen.
tial concern of it's kind in the Mohawk
valley. 1T is the first time in fifty
years workers in the Sanford mills
have successfully maintained an or
ganization.
The strike was forced on the en-
ployes in the printing department be-
cause of system of fines for alleged
bad work. The workers charged that
former would not let them see the
work, and would tell them they would
have to take his word for it or get out
of the factory" When the workers
organized under the United Textile
Workers, their officers were discharg-
ed, and all efforts of the State Board
of Mediation to adjust the dispute fail
ed, a sthe mill management would
not recognize the union"
The solidity of itA workers, however,
brought new Viewpoints. Under. the
agreement, there will be no discrimi-
nation between returning strikers be-
cause of union activity, and the cases
of the three employees discharged prior
to the strike will be referred to arbi-
tration--a point the company would not
consider before the walkout The vic
tory is a most important one for the
United Textile Workers and the trade
union in general, as it
means the creation of a strong or
ganized sentiment throughout this Sec
finn
