Wilson's Policy Protects No One But
The Outlaws.
(From the Chicago Tribune)

(From the Chicago Tribune)
We are threatening intervention
again in Mexico. The government
policy is probably no nearer effective
settlement of Mexican disorders now
than it has been in the past, but
when the Mexicans crowd their ell
bows into American ribs bit harder
than ordinary there are at least
threats to do something about it.
Threats, backed by no purposes to
do anything, merely aggregate the
conditions.
We have waited watchfully long
enough to exactly see what comes of
the plan allowing Mexico to develop
decent and strong government from
within. Mexico is not doing it. It
has been our opinion that Mexico
will have to be given order from
without Mexican Developments con-
firm that opinion.
Order can be brought about by in
PREVENTION, if it is not Intervention
merely to chase some robbers or to
take a city for a short while. If it
is Intervention to clean up thorough
ly, Mexico can get peace and decent
government.
President Wilson's policy is sup
posed to be for the IS per cent of
Mexicans thought to be law abiding.
If they are law abiding. they are the
greatest sufferers from this policy.
1t does not protect them It pro-
tects the is per cent of Mexicans
who want disorder and thrive on it.
Intervention would give the IS per
cent chance. 1t will not do any
good unless it is thorough and is in
tended to put Mexico on its feet and
keep it there. The military under
taking should not be difficult. In
our puttering around in Mexico we
have fought the Mexicans as they
prefer to fight, in skirmishes with
small arms in raids over great ex-
panses of territory.
If the SIS per cent of Mexicans
want peace, and security, and pro-
lection in their farming. cattle rails
ing, and industries they could get It
all by their own efforts il they had
support from stragetic towns.
The United States could organize
clothe, arm, feed, and pay a body of
Mexicans who for clothes, food and
pay would be willing to pacify their
country and put it in order and keep
1t in order.

These simple standards include

While the average, well-to-do, in

himself 100 per cent efficient in main

his children, it would be a fortunate

THE RIGHT TO EAT
What the Negro Asks Of the AID.
ministratiOn at Washington

Sir: In this mornings issue OF
The Tribune you have an article re-
lative to the protest made by the
National Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People against race
discrimination practiced in the res
taurants of the Congressional Ii
brary of Washington. Your article
is headed Right to Eat with Whites
is Demanded by Negroes" Eating
with white folks" has nothing to dc
with this protest We are protest
ing against the gross and open prac-
tice of injustice in building owned
by the nation and supported by COM
mon taxation, and against the humil-
iation and Inconvenience to which
Colored citizens are subjected. II
makes no difference to the Colored
people in Washington and Of the
country whether any white people
eat in the Congressional Library
restaurant or not. What they are
after is something to eat and place
in which to eat it. If you Nare not
familiar with the facts, they are
as follows:
If a Colored person has business
at the Capitol, if he is trying to see
the Senators or Congressman from
his state, and has to wait around, as
is often the case, the greater part OF
the day there is not decent place
within a mile where he can get a
meal. Notwithstanding. there are
restaurants under the dome of the
Capitol, but ever since the present
Administration has been in power
Colored people have been refused
service absolutely in these restau-
rants. The managers Of these res
taurants apd lunch counters receive
their right to, do business from the
Congressional Committee in charge
of the Capitol and the Capitol
grounds. Up to a recent time Col
ored people could go across from the
Capitol-to the Congressional Lii
brary-and be served there; but
with the appointment of a new SUI
perintendent discrimination is now
the policy in the restaurant of the
library.
1t appears to me that it is only
the monumental egotism of the white
man that allows him to think that
Colored citizens of the United States

ings are seeking to "eat with white

IDLE COLORED TEACHERS
Suggestion That They Be Employed
to Teach COlOred Children and
elieve Situation.

Sir-According to public reports
Philadelphia is greatly in need OF
school teachers. 1t has also been
published that there are no more
eligible teachers available. Yet there
are from twenty-five to thirty Col
ored boys and girls prepared to
teach who are awaiting appointment.
1t is quite fair to these teachers OF
the darker race to deny the public
knowledge that there are eligible
teachers on the waiting list?
Some one asks, Are these Colored
teachers really eligible?" The ans
wer comes back, Eyes! They have
had exactly the same training that
the white boys and girls have had
and thus made eligible" Yet they
are forced to remain on the waiting
list while the city suffers a lack OF
sufficient teachers.
Is it fair to seek outside teachers
to supply this need and not consider
our own twenty-five or more Colored
boys and girls who stand ready
willing and anxious to relieve the
demand for teachers? Is the answer
that they do not need Colored teach
ers? If so, let us reason together.
There are scores of white teachers
teaching Colored children in Phil
adelphia. Are there any Colored
teachers teaching white pupils in
Philadelphia? Now these Colored
teachers on the waiting list do not
suggest that they be considered in
filling the vacancies, but offer the
following suggestion
Where there are white teachers
teaching in schools of which a large
majority are Colored, why not re-
place them by Colored teachers and
place white teachers where the need
demands them?
The teachers thus obtained, to-
gether with the newly graduated
teachers, would relieve conditions,
and the prepared Colored teachers
would be given positions. Why bring
in outsiders" and ignore the Phil
adelphia boys and girls who waits
work? Shall they be overlooked sim
ply because of color?
The school at Seventeenth and
Christian streets may be used as an
illustration. 1t has been observed
that from 80 to 80 per cent of the
children are Colored. All the teach
ers are white. There are other
schools where similar conditions ex-
list.
America stands for justice. Shall
Philadelphia stand for less?

POLITICAL PATTER
VIDA. "A
OUR GREATEST DUTY.

Next year, the greatest duty given
tn an American citizen, is to be dis
charged when he cast his ballot Tor
some man to be president of this
county. Each four years, since the
country has been a constituted re-
public, the people have voted and
elected some man, to shape the al
fairs of the government and with the
inception of the man comes each
time a new policy and a change OF
sentiment and conditions.
Not since the black man became
citizen of this country has he been
placed in the position which he has
occupied for the past eight years,
and never has he had such an UNI
even chance to measure up to con-
ditions.
Although the Colored mans ballot
made it possible for Mr.. Wilson to
become chief magistrate of the gov
eminent, he has never done one thing
toward helping the black man in
straight forward way to be treated
as man and as citizen. After
his failure to redeem the pledge
made to the black men who so ably
supported him in his first election,
his policy has been negative one,
in all things in which the Colore1
man has been concerned.
The black mans ballot helped to
elect him the first time, and then
the women made the majority for
him the second time.
Both times fate seemed favorable
to him, first the black mans repu-
diation of the Republican party and
then the women's hope that Mr.. Will
son would keep this country out OF
the war.
History records just how sincere
the President was with either OF
these causes, which contributed so
much to his political welfare. Every
sensible person admits, that expe-
rience is the best teacher, and if
any people have drunk the bitter
dregs of political experience more
thoroughly than the American black
man, no one knows.
There is no use discussing the
war, that is past, and every intel
ligent person knows, either from ex-
perience or by study what has really
happened, and none have suffered
more than the black man, and none
needs to profit more by experience.
So far, in national affairs, our
best hopes seem with the Republican
party, but even with that party, we
must satisfy ourselves that the lead
ers and standard bearers must stand
as near upon the platform of uni
versal suffrage and manhood rights
as it is possible for white man to
stand, and in order to get the men
of honor, uprightness and justice, we
must begin to sift the records of the
men who are being groomed as pro-
posed possibilities, and when we have
satisfied ourselves that they are as
near the quality as we can get, them
it is our duty to do our best for
their nomination and election. If
ever there was a time when the Col
ored people should scrutinize close
ly, and fight more unitedly and de-
terminedly, 1920 campaign and elect
ion is the time.
