The ACCESSIBILITY of naming colored
bishops in the Protestant Episcopal
church will be discussed at the general
convention in st. Louis this month. A
special commission of bishops, clergy
men and laymen, appointed at the 1919
convention to investigate the question,
has completed its reports, n a major.
ity favoring the naming of colored
bishops, the other a minority report
opposing the proposal.
The majority report, which includes
the signature of the chairman. and
bishops of North Carolina, Texas and
Mississippi and the lay members from
Virginia and Rhode Island recon-
mends grouping the colored members
of the church in the southern dioceses
into one or more missionary districts
over which colored bishops would be
placed. The minority report is signed
by the bishops of South Carolina and
Georgia, Reverend Doctor Stires of
New York and Judge Joseph Packard
of Baltimore, who favor election of
suffragan bishops for this work.

A tall, portly gentleman, the picture

NJ. Cone, professor of mathematics in

his hand. He asked if this was Pro-

affirmative he said:

Negro problems are to be considered
as a part of the course in sociology
at Howard university this year. Prof.
Kelly Miller is to teach the first semes-
ter, and DR.. r. E. Parks, professional
lecturer in sociology of Chicago uni
versity, is to teach the second semester
of the subject.
In order that the course may be
available for city school teachers and
Others interested the time has been
set for three o'clock Mondays, Wednes-
days and Fridays.
The course is to embrace such topics
as growth, distribution and tendency
of Negro population, segregation, occu-
patton, crime, vital statistics, educa-
ton, religious and benevolent ~organiza-
tons, and also the discussion of RENE
dial agencies and the general progress
of the race.

The other evening while a crowd of

old came along and wonderingly

for 80 cents n day, which was fair
wages. In his spare moments he
watched the workers. Then he took
up the iron. Soon he had n table and
an iron, and was drawing a wage of
81 a day. For all that he was just a
pressing club Negro, Clement Richard
son writes in the Southern Workman.
Nobody thought of him as anything
else. In a few years the owner of the
business, a white man, died. Frazer
bought the business.
As colored folk came in to bring and
take back clothes, they inquired for a
barber shop. Frazer fitted up a chair,
bought a pair of clippers, and adver-
tised for clients; that is, he at first
cut hair for nothing. Then, as he
mastered the art, he charged five
cents, then ten cents, and so on till
he reached the standard price of %
cents.
Meantime he had bought a farm and
a horse. He said: "Ill take this horse
and land and make it pay for another
place" Scarcely had he embarked on
this proposition when a few choice
acres of land on the west side of Au-
burn were put up for sale. Strangely
enough, it vas the land of Frazer's
fathers master. Frazer bought it. He
put up a three-story building. He has
abandoned the pressing club, but sells
clothing. He still runs a barber shop
in the rear of the store. His second
floor is an assembly room for lodges
and amusements. On the third floor
he has an undertaking establishment.
A few PAGES from the store he has
built a home. A little further on he
has put up a hotel cottage, a rare place

One of the outstanding develop
ments of the last few years is the
growth of racial consciousness. The
lutest Negro Year Book reflects this.
Not only are the exploits of the heroes
OF the race recorded but also the indi-
vidual wealth of Negroes is described
with pride.
For example, the rise in the price
Of oil is said to have boosted the in
come Of Sarah Rector, a young girl
of Taft, Okla, to 5000 a day. AS the
descendant of a Creek freedman, she
happened to be allotted a piece of
land in the oil district. Single takers
would hardly share in the enjoyment
81 this record. But it has its signih-
canoe in a cumulative way.
Says Monroe N. Work, editor of
the volume:
Through purchases and increases
In values, property holdings of Ne
groes of the country increased during
the year by probably %$3O,OOO,OOO. 1t
is estimated that on the basis of &C
tual values and including exempted
and ~nontaXable property the total
wealth of the Negroes of the United
States is about $1,000. 100000. They
own 2~l,OOO,OOO acres of land, or more
tina $1,000 square miles, an area
greater than that of the state of
South Carolina
This private accumulation and pub
lie emphasis on the power of property
Is the Negroes answer to the white
mans apathy concerning his plight.
Rapidly the mere possession of wealth
is doing for the Negro what the white
mans conscience has failed to do.
Racial consciousness is the beginning
of racial self-reliance.
In an immense variety of ways the
Negro is using his W to
push forward his race, and, too, from
many sources he is being aided.
julius ~Rosenwald, among others, has
made interesting gifts to the rural
schools.
All this activity, the training of the
Negro for more and more important
services, is bound to have its conse-
quences. On the one hand segrega-
ton is increasing-since 1911 10 cities
n towns have adopted segregation
ordinances-and on the other hand the
Negroes are shaped by the schools and
other institutions to share in the mani
fold efforts Of the country. Here, in
truth, is a genuine conflict of forces.
What is the solution? Is it that of
the Brazilian statesman who was
quoted by Colonel Roosevelt as fol-
lows?
you of the United States are keen
ing the blacks as an entirely separate
element, and you are not treating them
in a way that fosters their self-respect.
Ihey will remain as a menacing ele-
luent in your civilization, permanent
and perhaps after n while q growing
element. With us this tends TO disaD-
pear, because the blacks themselves
tend TO disappear and to become all
sorbed. In a century there will not he
any Negroes in Brazil, while you will
have 100000 or 100000 of them"
Negroes are being absorbed in the
United States, despite our hostility IN
miscegenatiOn. The number of mu-
lattoes steadily increases and the num-
Der of blacks decreases, despite the
widespread laws forbidding intermar-
riage between the races. Unless the
Negroes attitude toward this absorb
uon changes, the gradual disappear
ance of a colored race seems to be the
prospect in America.-Chicago Herald
