SENATE TO IN

Oct z, 1919.
An investigation by the United
States Senate into race riots and
lynching throughout the United States
is provided for in a resolution intro
duced by Senator Charles Curtis OF
Kansas, it was announced today by
the National Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Colored People, 20
Fifth Avenue, New York City.
The Association unreservedly en-
dorses the resolution and urges every
Colored man and woman in the coun-
try who desires better relations be-

to write to his or her senator, urging
action on the resolution.
It reads as follows:

EMMETT j. SCOTT WHO SPE
In BEHALF OF BLACK MAN SAYS THE NEGRO
HAS CONTRIBUTED, LET HIM LIVE in PEACE

many thousands of additional en-
ployees, as you know. Yet in many
departments prejudice against the
Colored people remained strong and
effective enough to bar them from
the public service. This produced
curious and unexpected result; it
acted rater like a boomerang. Pri-
vate employers in the District Of Coll
umbia lost their white workers to
the Government in very large num-
bers. The high average salary OF
white men who went to the govern
ment remained at $1,000 or $1400 a
year. But the skilled Colored me-
chanic who prelude excluded from
the public service found himself earn
ing IS to SO day. BY twist Of
events, he had become the economic
superior of many of his many white
Ineighbors here in the district.
Now 1t can hardy be said that
the Negro was to blame for this en-
tirely natural effect of obvious caus-
es. Yet he has been blamed by many
enyious persons who would have us
believe that the Col0red worker has
got out of his place, and has be-

to the fighting forces. But this must
have hurt him still MORE
DR.. Scott held up Georgia news
paper. It contained the strry Of two
young colored women, who. being
pursued by two aeiirious white
youths. sought shaitsF behind the
locked doors of a Befghbor's home
The white men beat on the door to
break it down. An old Negro came
out armed with a gun, and order
the assailants away. The white men
attacked him. The old defender OF
womanhood shot sac of the men
J A white mob sent the Golored man
to a horrible death by lynching.
"But even throu this dark scene

That terrible cpl ode shocked the

stitution, which, in concluding long
editorial denunciaff3n of the often

labored there The masses OF the
Negro people live there. For many
years to come this win be true. and
that section should take the lead
in establishing definitely friendly re-
lations between the races. The time
has come, when there is more than
a sentimental 1pasiYe fo9 doing SO.

applies to every part of the country
where worlmen are scarce and the
worth of the black man as labor
er has been demonstrated. Every
American community must soon real
ize that 1t cannot permit lawless
groups to prosecute the Negro if it
wishes to enjoy the benefit of his
economic contribution.
"On the 1918 basis of 100000 inn
migrants a year, the United States
is now suffering from a deficit of at
least 100000 workers. And there
will be continuing deficit, for while
there is no immigration many for
eign residents of the country are
returning to France. The Colored
man has profited from this. and of
course he knows it. He would in
iced be the mental inferior Of other
Americans If he did not. / DO not
believe he plans to take an unjust
or improper advantage Of the cir
cumstance, but it certainly does not
weaken his claim to ordinary justice,
which is all he asks of his fellow
men.
There is an interesting economic
background to the Washington riots,
"Dr. Scott continued. During 1917
and 1918, the Government needed

World.

"An apology from the Colored peo-
pie would not solve not simplify this
problem, even If we're authorized
to make it. And / am not so author
lied. We make no claim to perfec-
ton; we confess our share Of re-
sponsibliity. But the Negro masses
have made it plain to their leaders
that no discussion Of the present day
race conflicts in America will have
their approval which assumes that
the blacks are more to blame than
the whites"
Not the voice of Booker t. Wash
ington but much OF his spirit is
heard in that utterance. Emmett j..
Scott was private secretary to the
great chief at Tuskegee Institute for
eighteen years, and spent total
of twenty-five years at the centre
of Afro-American culture. During
the war with Germany, DR.. Scott
served as a special assistant to the
Secretary of War. post which he
resigned June 30th Of this year to
become Secretary Treasurer of How
ard University. Germany was beat
en-, peace had returned,
/ Two weeks later battles were rag
ing in the streets of Washington. No
one denies that white mobs began the
new civil war. And no one denies
that the blacks retaliated. The shad-
ows of the White House and or How
ard University, miles apart, became
centers of conflict. The Police De-
partment abdicated. Drinning citi-
zens went out to see the fun and
were brought home with the more
innocent dead. Federal troops fin
ally recaptured Washington from the
enemy, who retreated westward over
the Alleghanies and fell upon Chica-.
go. 1t was then that / found DR..
Scott in his office at the university
and aslea him. Il. he ttouglis. III
white and CoIored people of the
United States were civilized enough
to to live together without making
their common flag the symbol of
chronic massacres.
"If our ideals and professions are
not moonshine and hypocrisy, then
a peaceble solution will certainly be
found" DR.. Scott began. II confess
there is much in the record to dis
scourge optimism. During 1917 and
1918, the Colored people of America
gave a demonstration of patriotic 10y
atty. efficiency and courage unexcell-
ed by any other element of our pop
ulation. Democracy was at stake,
yet during those critical years 100
Colored men and women were lynch
ed in the United States. more than
ever before during a like period.
That was discouraging."
Then DR.. Scott smiled at happy
recollection.
"In the great victory parade in
Atlanta an old Colored man was per-
haps the proudest marcher in line.
He bore aloft banner attesting that
eleven of his sons were serving in
the Army Of the United States. 1t
must have been hard blow for him
to learn that he had been topped by
