THE BOYS CLUB FEDERATION.

THE APPEAL is in receipt of a
letter from Mr.. Frank G. Patchen, of
the Boys Club Federation bureau of
Information), 40 West 10th Street,
New York, N. Y, asking for it's CO.
operation in the efforts of the Fedora
ton to solve the VITA problem of the
''under-privileged" boy, one Of the
greatest human problems that our
country is facing. He states that in
no sense does the work of the or
ganization conflict with that of the
Church. On the contrary, it is an
aid to the Church, reaching material
that neither the Church nor Church
clubs can successfully reach and with
out bias, placing that material in the
hands of the Churches for spiritual
guidance, distributing to each Church
it's own, WITHOUT REGARD TO
RACE, CREED OR COLOR"
Elsewhere in our columns we pub
lish an article that tells of the Fedora
ton and it is hoped that some of our
good citizens will interest themselves
to the extent of writing to Mr.. Patchen
to learn the plans upon which the de-
sired cooperation may be given.

I'VE ARE ALL ALIKE"

In the midst Of the base. unjust, uA-
American talk about race segregation,
which Southern whites have started
in Chicago, the statement of a mem
Der OF an oppressed race, sounds like
a voice OF fairness in the wilderness
Of race prejudice.
A great hullabaloo was raised over
the sale by Rabbi Hirsch of his for
mer residence at 1912 Grand Boule-
ward, to q colored man. It was con-
sidered a matter Of sufficient impor-
lance to warrant the sending of a re.
porter of the Chicago Tribune to in
terview the seller. >~>..,.
Rabbi Emil G.. Hirsch, the famous
Jewish leader, was asked by the re-
porter:
What are your views on y1ce seq
regatiol?"
Rabbi Hirsch replied:
From my point of VIEW we are all
alike. Colored people are just as good
as whites. I would father have a good
black neighbor thzA poor white one.'"'

WILL NOT WAIVE RIGHTS.

Venal colored men in Chicago at
tempted to sell out the colored people
but they were promptly rebuked by
the decent self-respecting people.
An organization known as the Ken
wood and Hyde Park Property Own
ers Association held a meeting to pre-
pare plans to segregate the colored
people or at least to drive them out
OF the Hyde Park section. The color
ed people were characterized as 'sun-
desirables,' "coons," "darkies," etc.,
by speakers who were appealing to
the prejudices of the Southerners who
composed about nine-tenths OF the
audience.
Then another meeting was called
and few venal jimcrow Negroes
were on hand who tried to sell out
their race. The whole plan was an
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1919-12-27

Infamous one. The colored men who
were in the plot were the hirelings
of the Hyde Park whites and hoped
to make a lot of money out of the
scheme, but the community made it SO
hot for the would-be traitors that they
did not attend the second meeting
with the whites. There we're only
six colored men who agreed to segre.
gate themselves and they have long
been known as jimcrowists.
An attempt was made to buy out

ton has purchased a Jewish Temple
in the Hyde Park district, but: he re-
fused to be party to the scheme and
he says that his congregation will

Ex-Alderman De Priest, head of the
Peoples Movement, is raising fund
to take care Of the mortgages of those
threatened with foreclosure and will
see to it that insurance policies are
taken out for all who are not protected
against fire.
Leading colored citizens, pastors of
all the churches and heads of organ
izations are advising their members to
stand pat and be not afraid. It is
very evident that the colored people
of Chicago will not waive any of their
constitutional rights.

Should Open the Doors to Opportunity
(From the Christian Register)

\fTOm the "C1rlStlan Reg1Ster.)
A circular sent out to employers in
large city, calling attention to the
number and quality of young colored
men trained in the schools of the city,
and asking cooperation and counsel
in making their services available,
brought one reply which though anony-
nous is significant of an opinion still
widely influential. Kindly send them
to Africa, instead Of mixing them
with u.s." AS the expression of an in
dividual desire these two points are of
course admissible, but as practicable
measures it is curious that any intelli-
gent person should seriously entertain
them. Does any one suppose that the
colored population of the United
States could be sent to Africa, or that
it they were sent they would go? So
long as they are here, and have al
ready been mixing for more than
century, and have the rights of citi-
zenship, including the right to die with
white men for their country, is it any
reckOnable menace to responsibility
and intrinsic leadership to open a few
more Industrial doors to their proved
abilities and usefulness? While we
write, a moving-van is unloaded by
two white men and one colored man.
The colored man is the boss, the
white men take his orders. There is
not the least trouble about it. There
would never be trouble IL It were not
made by people Of the temper OF the
anonymous objector. 3. 81

SOUTH STILL IN SADDLE,

1t is with considerable regret and
chagrin that we note the defeat of
the amendment to the Esch railroad
bill offered by Congressman Madden
of Illinois, designed to do away with
the Jim crow accommodations now
supplied to colored people on rail
roads in the south.
The Jim crow law never should have
been conceived, much less enacted, as
it is absolutely WRONG and caters to
a prejudice as wrong as ITSELF
Once, some years ago, it will be
remembered, there were several COL
ored members of Congress elected by
the majority vote in thir several dis
tricts, just as the members of the
present Congress were but if those
men were living now, they would not
be allowed to. travel in the South
without being Inundated and out
ragged by being forced into Jim crow
cars just because they had a visible
admixture of African blood in their
composition. The present Congress
had an opportunity to correct this
great wrong but refused to do so, be-
cause the southern members did not
want it.
There is a majority of members in
the present Congress who are men,
bers of the Republican party, the
party of Lincoln, Sumner, Phillips,
Roosevelt, ETC., presumably advocates
Of justice to all men, and the most
faithful allies Of that party had good
reason to expect justice at their
hands.
They did not get it and cannot for
get that fact.

REviViNG WAR INSURANCE.

Soldiers and sailors who have al.
lowed their war insurance to lapse
should take note of the new treasury
decision whereby men out of service
eighteen months or more may rein
state their policies up to Dec. 81, 1919,
on payment OF two months premiums,
provided they are still insurable ply
sicaQy.
Many of these policyholders have
dropped their insurance because they
are young and without dependents.
But beyond question most Of them
will some day be married and have
dependents and will need insurance.
Life insurance is regarded today by
our most substantial citizens as the
necessary equipment OF every man OF
family, and many banks are publicly
advocating it as measure OF thrift,
These boys Of the army and navy
can never again get insurance as
cheaply az it is offered by the govern.
ment, and the terms for reinstatement
are exceedingly liberal. It would be
the part Of wisdom for these boys to
get their policies launched now and
at least partly paid for while they are
unburdeaed, financially, by family.

THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS AND
THE NEW YEAR.

. On the day after Christmas many
people pick up the wrapping paper,
string and other rubbish scattered
about and ask themselves whether
they really had as much joy AMI plea
sure from the giving and receiving of
gifts as they ought to have had. They
know that those to whom they gave,
liked and appreciated the spirit which
led to the giving, but did they like the
gifts? The overflowing ashbarrels,
the crowd around the exchange coun-
ters in the stores and additional pack
ages on the top shelves of unused
closets and attics give the answer, in
many cases.
It is less trouble and less effort to
give sensible and useful and appropri-
ate gifts than those which will bring
neither profit nor qualification to the
recipient. No matter for whom the
gift is designed nor how expensive or
inexpensive you desire to make it,
Government Savings Securities will
supply the giver's needs and the re-
ceiver's wants. Thrift. Stamps, War
Savings Stamps, Treasury Savings
Certificates and Liberty Bonds are ad-
justed to the limitations of every
purse.
Moreover their usefulness is not
momentary They will not be cast
aside as out of fashion or outgrown
for they grow and increase in value
with the passage of time. They carry
with them the spirit of desire for flu
ture well-being expressive of true
friendship and affection. They are
appropriate for all and more than a
little excuse exists for a recipient to
feel that little thought has been spent
on a gift no matter how expensive,
if it is manifestly Inappropriate.
Well, Christmas of 1919 with it's
joys and it's sorrows has passed. into
history and the New Year 1920 will
soon be ushered in; let the dead past
burn it's dead and let us be filled with
hope and determination to do better
in the new year than eyer before and
with this idea in view we wish you
all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

At THE LYRIC.

''Blackie's Redemption" the grip
ping story of a reformed crook. in
which Bert Lytell enacted the leading
role, was the attraction yesterday at
the Lyric theater and played to a
large and appreciatiye audience.
The plot shows how Blaclic tired
of his lawless life. tries to reform but
is prevented by the undetermined
''frame-up" of Fred the count, which
sends him to prison. How he escapes
and returns to Mary. the girl whom
he was about to marry when ha was
arrested, is one of the vivid and grip
ping series of incidents which go to
make production of unusual
strength and appeal
The climax and big surprise of the
play comes when the warden, who
finds Blackie in May's house. decides
that she is more entitled to the
man she loves than the law is. and
leaves them to their interrupted hap
piness.
The excellent cast supporting Mr..
I.ytell includes Alice Lake, Henry
Kolker, Bernard Burning, Jack Duffy,
william Musgrove, Gertrude Short,
Don Bailey, Wilton Tailor and All Tov.
The above play is being repeated
today; also the Kinogram- World
