LIBERALS NEEDS


Liberia has appealed to this
country for financial aid, on ac-
count of the war in Europe, the
interruption of all commercial re-
lations with Germany to which
country the greater part of its pro-
ducts were sent, has left this coun-
try in sad condition.
Liberia looks to this country
from the fact that majority of its
people who have made it their
home were born and natives of this
country. Many efforts have been
made recently on the part of the
leading men of the race to open
commercial relationswith it, at one
time it came near success. Its pro-
ducts are valuable, some of which
cannot be duplicated in value with
that of any other country The
great trouble has been and still ex
lists is to improve its shipping fa-
cilities SO as to lessen the time of

could stop breathing.
We have in mind numbers of
our women. who are even more
guilty of doing these very things
mentioned. Do not these things
show they are trying to get away
from the race, and get into the
other? Why not be content with
what God has given them? Why
can they not see that the best
within them is neglected?
They are not ONLY guilty of the
things just mentioned, but they try
to walk and talk like them. We
are sometimes struck when we see
some of our people who have been
around the whites in their homes,
come out trying totalk Just as they
talk, instead of talking in their
own natural way. We do not mean
that they should not initiate them
in that which is good and uplifting,
for that would be beneficial and
helpful. For all races, to some ex-
tect, initiate one another and Gull
that which is best from the other.
For instance, the Japs studied
the American way and took what
was best in their civilization, and
engrafted it upon their own. They
studied the American navy, and
improved theirs in their own jap
anese way. And what was the
consequence We find them ad-
mired and respected and honored
throughout the civilized world.
Why? Because, while they picked
what was best in other races, they
stood true to Japan.
Even Indians are admired, be-
cause they will be Indians and are
proud Of themselves. They are
true to their racial characteristics.
And the whites respect them today
more than they do a Negro.

VOL A T|ONS OF LAW IN
HANDLING 4. NJ. {. MONEY

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 6.-That not
more % per cent, of the money
raised in the conferences of the
A. M. E. Church for missionaries,
superannuates, widows and or
phans reaches its proper destina.
ton is the charge made by the
Rev. G. M. Tanner, pastor of Big
Bethel A. M, E. Church, this city;
and he states further that if only
15 per cent. of the dollar money.
conference missionary money and
Easter money were received by the
benehciaries they would be receiv-
ing not less than twice the amount
now paid them.
This condition is brought about
afirms DR.. Tanner, by the fact
that the funds for the conference
bene6ciaries remain in the confer
ences and thus is convenient for
misappropriation and mishandling
by the ones who handle it. AT the
general conference of the a. M. E..
Church held in Kansas CITY in
1912 bill was offered to create a
new department into which would
be paid the money for missionar-
les, superanuates, widows and or
phans.' The bill provided for a
quarterly disbursement of the funds.
The proposed measure was passed.
but an amendment was made
which provided that the funds for
conference benefciaries should be
placed in the bands of treasurer
elected by the annual conference
who would disburse the same.
DR. Tanner declares that this
was a mistake, as twenty years ex.
perience on conference finance
committees had convinced him that
there was no way to get the money
for conference beneficaries into
their hands as long as it was kept
in the conference. He declares
that two years of trial under the
law has brought no change. 1t is
openly violated. The benefciar-
les are really getting less than 25
per cent. of the money raised for
them.

A VICTORY.
New York Age)

For a number of years DR.. Wash.
ington, Mr.. Lester A. Walton and
our colored editors throughout the
country have been making an earn
est effort TO persuade the white
press to capitalize the word Ne
gro," in the same way that the
words Indian, Italian, Scandinav-
ian and what not are capitalized.
A few months ago The Outlook
Magazine decided to use capital
"N'when using the word Negro.
A few months later the Century
Magazine followed the lead of The
Outlook. Still more recently all
the Curtis publications have agreed
to use the capital IN" But the
greatest victory of all is seen in
the fact that few days ago the
Associated Press instructed its
correspondents that hereafter when
speaking of the Negro TO use a
capital f<'N."
Our gratitude is certainly due
the Associated Press for this great
reform, and we predict it will only
be matter of few months or
years when every publication in
the country will capitalize the
word Negro just the same as Ital
ian, Indian or Japanese is capital
lied. We have long tried to per-
suade the New York Evening Post
and The Independent to use a
capital IN" but thus far have
been unsuccessful. We hope,
however, that the action of the
Associated Press will be far-reach-
ing in causing all important publ
cations to capitalize the word Ne
gro in the future.

RACE
LOYALTY


Every race has its own charac-
teristics and peculiarities. They
are mental as well as physical.
The most casual observer readily
reveals to us that races differ in
complexion, texture of hair, in size,
and sect. One race white, one race
brown, one yellow and one dark.
The hair of some is straight, soft
and flowing, another, stiff and
course, and another short and crisp.
If we observe more closely, and
come into closer contact, we note
they differ in habits, manners and
customs and modes of thinking.
Why is this, and for what purpose?
The answer must be because God,
the Almighty Creator, made and
ordained them SO, and hence for
the best. They serve His great
purpose. Holy Writ tells us that
He created each after His kind.
1t is plain, then, that this is a
universal law stamped upon the
very face of our being and is de-
signed by the creator for the ac-
complishment Of some great end.
Since this is true, each race can
oo,tr;h,,fo ,,,0ct to tpo world hu
developing its peculiar character
istics to their fullest extent. In
doing this they are serving the pur-
pose of their creation, and can con-
tribute the greatest possible good
to the worlds civilization.
A race should study its own Pc
culiar qualities and instincts and
set about with the utmost care to
cultivate them and bring them up
to their highest possible efficiency.
In doing this it has not only its
own aid, but the aid of its Maker,
who created and ordained it thus.
To do otherwise is disastrous and
deleterious, and must inevitably
end in degeneracy and degradation.
Many Negroes have tried to ig-
more and eliminate their own rae
ial qualities, both mental and ply
sical, and ape the white man,
Some tried TO get away from their
own race and get in the other
Some used all kinds of cosmetics
to bleach the skin, and all kinds of
"straightiness" to straighten the
hair. We have in mind SO call
ed race leader, who is the most
striking illustration of the point at
issue; he makes it point to rise
early in the morning to give him
self ample time to go through this
unnatural and foolish process.
All kinds of cold creams, face pow
ders. and hair oils are used, morn
ing, noon and night to bring about
the desired end. And we have
noted as a asesnlt, he is less brilliant,
less healthy and less independent

Chicago. ILL.,, Sept. S.-Through
the suggestion of DR.. George G.
Hall the colored Y. M. @. A. has
recently had meeting of the col

headquarters are in this city. In
the city of Chicago there are be-
tween seven and eight thousand
Pullman car porters, and a large
proportion of them have been
reached through the Y. M. @. A.
Plans are on foot by which the ma
jor portion of these Pullman car
porters will be gotten into the Y.
M. @. A. and have some direct and
practical connection with it. This
is move in the right direction,
and one that our people here ap-
prove of. A working relationship
