Church Council Calls
For Justice for the Race
The Problem No Longer Sectional
Racial Understanding Necessary

of education and Christianization such
as tends to prevent crimes that pro-
woke mob violence. The home Of the
Negro should receive the same meas
ure of respect and protection as that
Of other Americans and the sanctlty
Of his home relations should be safe
guarded in every possible way. Swift
and impartial action Of the law should
strike the yioIator e the sanctity OF
any home, white or black.
a. We recognize as fundamental to
tie welfare and efficiency Of society
that adequate recreational provisions
be made available for Negro citizens.
5. We strongly endorse the plea OF
the Negro for equal travelling accom-
modations for equal charges.
6. Adequate educational facilities
for Negro children and youth should
be provided not only as national
obligation but also as necessity for
national welfare. We emphasize the
urgency Of giving to the Negro his
full share of local and national funds.
Z. publications for franchise should
be administered irrespective of race,
creed or color.
s. Closer cooperation between the
races should be promoted by organic
ing local committees of white and
colored people In towns and conlnun-
tiles for the consideration OF inter-
racial welfare. All possible agencies
should be enlisted In fostering spirit
Of Justice ard Of good win in the re-
lations of one race to the other. We
recommend that the governor Of each
state appoint a standing committee
for the careful study of the causes
underlying race friction with view
to their removal and that Congress
be requested through non-partisan
committee to investigate the disturbed
and threatening ifater-racial SITUATION
throughout the nation.
Racial understanding and coopera-
ton furnish the only sure basis of
race adjustment in democracy. The
root Of the matter is the failure TO
recognize the Negro IS man. The
basis Of distress on both sides is fear,
and "fear hath torment" Respect
for Negro manhood and womanhood
is the only basis for amicable race
adjustment, for race integrity and for
permanent racial peace. If we talk
democracy, let us act democracy. II
we propose democratic program for
the protection and self determination
Of the weak and oppressed people cI
Europe as q means OF permanent
peace and good will abroad, let US
apply the same program at home.

ASK PRESIDENT For
REPRESENTATION
AT INDUSTRIAL.
CONFERENCE

NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 90 The
National Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People today made
public letter to President Wilson
calling his attention to the fact that
no Negroes had been among the q
men from all parts of the country I'M
vited to meet in Washington on 0cto-
her 9Th, to plan new relations between
labor and capital.
The letter which il signed by John
r, Shillady, asks the appointment Of
ssasssseas - tl~ aes..s,.;ass.es Ia ~ vpss
ton to the percentage that Negro la
Dor forms Of the country's total labor
supply; namely, II per cent.
The letter reads:
September 10, 1919.
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President of
the United States, Washington, 10.
G..
Sir: The press of September 18th
sells of the invitation extended by you
to twenty-five men residing in all
arts Of the country to meet in Wash
ington, October 9Th next, to "formu-
late plans for development of new
relationship between capital and Ia
bor.v The dispatch also tells Of the
selection TO be made later of an ad-
ditional and equal number of conferees
by organized labor and organized em-
ployers.
May we not call your attention to
a fact that apparently was overlooked
by you in the selection of these men
and one which we feel should be
brought to your attention and that OF
the country at large.
According TO the census Of 1910
there were in the United States at
that time 7,317,922 Negroes over ten
years of age, and Of that number
5,192,535, or II per cent, were EN-
ployed in gainful occupations. Ac-
corling to the same records there
were in America 63,933,870 whites ten
pears Of age and over, of which num-
ber only 32.974,056, or slightly less
than SO per cent were employed in
gainful occupations. We wish to call
your attention to the fact that no one
OF the twenty-five persons invited by.
you to sit on this commission is of
the colored race, although, according
to the above records one of every six
wage-earners in the United States is
of the colored race.
May we not also remind you of the
fact that due to the exigencies arising
as result of the war, immigration
from Europe has been changed to emf
grafton to Europe. The industrial
vacuum thus created has, to large
extent, been filled and will continue to
be filed by Negro wogkman from tha
South. With his labor thus taking on
d value hitherto unknown, the Negro
becomes more and more factor IN
the industrial life of the country. In
any discussion of the relations Of the
future between capital and labor, and
particularly in view Of the present nn-
rest, may we not ask If it is at all
wise to ignore in this manner nearly
seventeen per cent Of the labor Of
America May we not, therefore, ask
that il it is possible you appoint rep.
resentatives Of colored labor at least
In proportion to the percentage that
Negro labor forms of the conntry's
total labor supply?
Respectfully yours,
SECRETARY.
