country Increases the buying power
OF that countrys currency causing an
equivalent reduction In the amount
OF credit needed to finance any Civ
Ell transaction. This reduction in
credit eventually finds It's way into
lnternn 1onal transactions, scaling
down the amount OF actual money
changing hands.
While this is necessarily only
partial explanation, it shows that
the phenomenon has set in now that
corrected tho demoralized safe pre-
Vailing in 1918. At that time the note
reserve Of the Bank OF England was
suspended and about 500 banks were
given issuing powers. A flood of pa

This gradually drove paper money
out of circulation and gold, which

tho black man.
jim Cr0wism flourishes most large
ly among the so-called educated Ne
groos. Il has but little growth among
the common people. 1t is the profes
sional Negro, the college boy and
girl, the school man and the idle, Cd
ucated misfits who infcst every com
munity in which Negroes live. Tho
Negro In overalls or who follows the
usual industrial and economic en-
p.oyment is not the class who infesr
the buzzard rOost and crowd tho rats
and mice out of their holes in order
to see play, but it Is usually tho
society Negro woman and man.
1t Is common thing in southern
cities to see the back alleys to white
theatres filled with Negro theatre
parties and the police lining them
up like mules one behind tho other
under threats and curses. 1t is a com
mon thing to SEQ large numbers Of
the Junior and senior classes from
our colleges infesting back alleys
among news boys; other rabble scuff-
ling for place in tho line to reach
the buzzard roost by the way of tho
back door. 1t is not an uncommon
thing to see our doctors, school teach
ers and what-nots In full dress and
our women in full evening dress with
ten dollar bouquets In their hands
climbing In the white mans theatre
through the back alleys. 1t Ia not an
uncommon thing for the policemen
i'll lining up tho rabb.e In the back
alleys to place the Negro school
marin" or Negro college girl fifteen
feet away from her beau.
But none of this humiliation seems
to discourage or arouse in our edu-
Gated people that manlness and self
respect necessary to grow up among
us selfrespec,ing and decent man
and womanhood. When you question
these educated fools about the ex-
ample they set. they tell you we have
nowhere else to 90 to see first
class play. They forget entirely that
the white man would not have place
in the theatre box or in the pit, II no
did not unto and cooperate togeth-
err long enough to provide play
house with decent accommodations.

Editor Pendleuon contondcd that

The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1919-11-26
WHY WAS THE SAL
WALTON ARMY A
SUCCESS IN FRANCE?

Because it gave the men what they
wanted. There were very few of our
American men in France who needed
the Salvation Army's help before they
went overseas, but when they went
into foreign country, without food
or money, who did they 60 to? The
Salvation Army.
1t is just the same here in America.
There are many men here in our own
state who, for some reason or other,
lose their position or money, and need
help.
Perhaps man may come from a
poor family and he has had to work
from childhood to help support the
family. He has not been properly edu-
Gated and has no profession. If he
loses his position he comes to the Sal
walton Army with exactly the same
spirit as you called on the Salvation
Army in France. He receives help
undor the same conditions here as you
received it on the other side. If he
never has money enough so he feels
he can pay the Army without depriv-
ing himself of the necessities of life
he Is not expected to pay. This is the
way the men were treated in France,
and this Is the way the men are treat
