propaganda of violent nature. the
final charge of the negroes, that the
press associations and the Washing
ton papers inf1amed the white popu-
lation and helped start the riots,
would be perhaps the gravest indict-
ment made against the whites of
Washington.
For it is fact, as the negroes
have definitely pointed out, that on
the day following the worst roiting
dispatch appeared on the first page
of a prominent Washington paper
which was undoubtedly calculated to
cause further trouble at the very
time that troops had been called in.

The Negroes Question

TINE negro papers of the coun-
try have spoken plainly of
~ the consequences which thew
think may result from the
race riots. "The New York Age"
one of the most important negro
papers in the country, commented
as follows upon the Washington out
breaks:

United States and within the shsdov
OF the Capitol, is the logical result Of

and sailors sworn to protect the law.
and with the police in most instances
indifferent to their appeals for protec-
ton, the colored people of Washington
found it necessary to resort to the
last recourse-protect themselves.

A Chaos Of Opinion

T F THERE is any solution of the
49, race riot problem it is difficult
to find it in the comment of the
American press. Opinion is
hopelessly varied and conflicting.
One conspicuous and expected
cleavage is that between Northern
and Southern newspapers. Typical
of the extreme Northern view is
"The Hartford Courant," which
says:
"For more than hundred years
white men have lynched black men
in the South with the open approval
and often through the assistance of
what the South regards as it's best
citizens, and with the tacit approval
of the authorities, and in time the coun-
try must pay the bill thus incurred.
Harvest follows seedtime; the pendulum
must swing in one direction as far
as it does in the other, and if negroes
can be killed in the South negroes will,
in time, kill white persons in the North
until the odds have been evened.
"A beginning has been made in two
cities, but there is no reason to think
or trust that the riots will be confined
to those two places, for Philadelphia

room for the sniper. From under

girl shot and mortally wounded
Wilson.
A day or two later the police
had on file a copy of "The Boston
Age" of July 10, which had been
directed to the address where Will
son was killed.
The Washington police do not
claim that the paper in question in
cited the negro girl to sniping. But
the content of at least one article
in the paper, edited by a prominent
negro leader, who has just returned
from France, reveals the fact that
the negroes of this country are
fostering in their own papers dan
gerous propaganda of the follow
ing kinds:
l. That fostering the feeling
that the white man is depressing
the black purposely.
2. That which touches at a
dangerous point the idea of
racial equality between whites
and negroes.
3. That which counsels vio-
lence between the races.
q. That which teaches the ne
gro to talk freely Of this country
going Bolshevist.
S. To attack England, to raise
the Irish question and to declare
the United States no democracy.
This type of propaganda is most
generally ascribed to two causes:
The presence of negro soldiers in
France, where French women of
the lower classes accepted them as
equals, and the presence of an in
creasing number of agitators among
the negroes.

Must the negro fight to secure his

is not merely a sectional product Some
Northern cities have tried to create this
impression, and they still harp on
Southern lynchngs as a proof that the
South is the nursery Of race antagon-
ism. But other outbreaks in Northern
cities and sections long ago made their
theory ridiculous.
1t IS clear to the unprejudced OBJ
server that race feeling is far deeper
and more intense north of Mason and
Dlxon's line than south of it. When
this feeling is aroused in Northern or
Western cities, it assumes the character
Of ferocious and murderous animosity.
What the South asserts in it's lynch
ings is the determination to maintain
white integrity and separateness. 1t is
not inspired by race hate, but by the
instinct of race preservation. The
Southern people have no unknd feeling
for the colored race as such. On the
contrary. they like the negro, they I'M
derstand him, and are ready TO help
him."
A frank threat that segregations,
Southern style, must come unless
the present frictions can be avoided
is found in "The Chicago Tribune"
This is one of the few practical
suggestions for a solution of the
underlying difficulties mentioned
bV anV paDer.
"The issue is beginning to be sharply
drawn. The colored people do not
seem disposed to recede from what
they consider a just position in the
community, and the whites seem de
termlned not tc give way, as they
conceive it, before penetration of
colored people into neghborhoods
which heretofore have been restricted
to white population.
''The colored people insist upon lust
and equal advantages White people
take the position that the 'encroach-
ment' Of negroes is not just to them,
because depreciation of propert..- values
always follows.

whether official cognizancc of
this assemblage and its intent will

not be told"
Contrasted to this one may find
on the front page of "The New
York Age" one day last week the
two items adjoining.
But it is the contention of this
article that the Washington riot
was more than a local disturbance
that it really symbolized a situa-
ton that lies dormant the country
over, namely, that because of the
war new elements have been in
jected into the problem of racial
friction between whites and ne
groes in this country.
The death of Policeman Harry
Wilson in the Washington riots
dramatizes this point by bringing
to the attention Of the police one
example of the propaganda now be-
ing carried on in the negro papers
of this country.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-08-03
Segregation Suggested

IF the whites and coored cannot
refrain from riots and bloodshed and
interminable violence on the bathing
beaches, how long will it be before
this question is asked: Shall there be
separate bathing beaches for the
whites and colored?
"lt the races cannot get along in
certain neighborhoods without fights
and brawls and police interference,
how long Will it be before segregation
will be the only means of preventing
daily murders and perhaps recur-
renee, on a scale vastly enlarged, Of
the East ST. Louis disaster?
IF colored person cannot enter a
streetcar without this being the signal
for shooting and furore, how long will
it be before public policy and the pro-
lection of life and property makes nee
essary another system of transporta-
ton ,"
There is a general agreement in
Northern papers that the present
outbreaks are serious and forebode
wider trouble. That they bear a
significant relation to the worlds
troubles and have a moral for all
Americans is the view of THE
Bridgeport Standard Telegram"
The general opinion is that the
Chicago and Washington riots are
symptoms of a general unrest and
the direct result of the war.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-08-03

against carrying concealed weapons
have been lightly construed for
months.
Seren Men Killed
Seven men--four colored, three
white, including policeman, ma
rine and a white boy-were killed
Over one hundred persons, including
one white and several negro women,
were injured.
There was some liquor. If there
had been wide open saloons there
would have been scores of deaths,
every competent official declares.
Evidence that both sides were at
fault is disclosed by the fact that
Congress is being asked for more
and better paid police, that the sale
of firearms is to be restricted and
put under license, that penalties for
carrying concealed weapons are to be
enforced, and that conferences are
to be held at intervals between lead
ing white and negro citizens in an
effort to control both races. Lead
ing negroes do not deny that white
women were assaulted. Fhey only
question the exact number of at
tacks.
From this point the situation be-
comes less clear and enters the de-
batable stage. The negroes assert
that there should be more negro po-
licemen. With more than $4,000
negroes in Washington, they point
out the fact that in years not a
single negro policeman has been
added to the police force.
They also say that unnecessary in
suits have been offered the negro
race by recent bills introduced in
Congress to provide "Jim Grow"
streetcars and prohibit intermar-
riage of the two races.
The Crarest Charge
If there had not been war; if
there had not been riot in Chi
cago week after that in Washing
ton; if radical negro agitators had
not circulated among the Washing
ton negroes; if negro bodies in New
York City, Boston and elsewhere
were counselling peace and not vio-
lence; if negro papers were them
selves reasonably free from race
