ing to erect huge electrical generators
at the coal mines. Wires will then
carry the power uninterruptedly and
with minimum of waste to all parts
of the country. Electrical engines win

The German technicians estimate II
willtake from one to three years TO
bring about this transformation. That
is osay. little longer than the unpro-

the signing of the armistice.
After the NapoleoniC wars ha

modern machinery and steam power.

THE "NlGGER" IN THE SEGREGA-
TON WoODPlLE.

PROF. Neyal H. Thomas, a school
teacher in Washington and an active
member of its N A. A. c. p, con-
cludes a vigorous news article pub
lished in the Cleveland Gazette with
words which answer the boasts of
those who get money for institutions
and houses for Colsred people that
keep the races apart. Says Prof.
Thomas:
II have heard many silly Negro ad~
vocates of segregation boast Of how
much money they can raise for a
Negro enterprise, too blind to see that
most any white man will contribute
literally to any movement that will
keep Colored people away from him
and make them acknowledge their in
feriOrity. In fact, the most dangerous
enemy Of democracy with which we
have to contend, and the most serv-
iceable capitalistic tool, is organized
charity. The large donors to these
Negro Charities" are making profit
able investments when, through some
well-paid Negro, they can establish
separate Y. M. G. A., Y. w. C. A. So
cial settlement, or school. These in
situations aid in keeping the toiling
masses apart, so that, on the principle
of 'divide and conquer" these wealthy
donors" can exploit. So, the collec-
ton of large contributions" by these
Negro segregationists is no achieve.
ment, but another barrier to the prog
ress Of the race. I well remember how
one of these international "secre-
taries" boosted of getting the money
to build a Negro Y. M. G. A. in the
great city Of Chicago. If that institu-
ton remains there long the great civil
rights law of Illinois will be null and
void. Already it's presence there has
popularized a movement for separate
schools and segregation as to homes
for our people.
mo, our solution is not surrender,
but FIGHT! Let the churches and
welfare clubs of Cleveland exert extra
activity for the moral betterment of
Cleveland's youth, and your press, pull
pit, your ballot, and every other power
within you. Agitate for admission

MIRABILE DlCTU!

In these days of profteering and
money mad people whose God is
money, it is almost unbelievable that
man would resign an easy job that
paid salary of 10000 "plunks" to
accept hard job that only pays 49,
900. The rara avis that did this is
Rev. J. Douglas Swagerty of Dallas,
Texas, who was educated for the min
istery and was assistant pastor of the
First Methodist church. When the
church no longer needed an assistant
pastor, Mr.. Swagerty accepted posi-
ton at salary of $4,000.
He received an offer of assistant
pastor, choir director and director of
religious education in Wesley Memorial
church Of Atlanta, Ca, at a salary of
$4,000 per year.
He says: "It is not a matter of
money with me, it is a matter of do
ing my duty. 1 will continue in
church work despite the greater finan-
cial opportunities offered in other
fields. It is my chosen calling and
wish to follow it."
One can have some faith in this
mans Christianity.

people and therefore Wendell Phillips
High School should be made "colored."
That would be an outrageous perver-
sion of the name, for Wendell Phillips
was real Christian white man who
devoted his life to work in Fighting
the wrongs of his colored brethren.
There are neighborhoods in Chicago
inhabited almost exclusively by 1tal-
ians, Chinese, Poles, Russians and other
foreigners, but the thought never
comes to Mr. Perrine or others of his
ilk to restrict the children in those
neighborhoods to "exclusive' Italian,
Chinese, Polish or Russian schools.
open to all.
There has been much talk about the
Chicago Plan" and now we are get
ting some intimation that segregation
is to be part of that plan However
we believe that the thinking colored
people of Chicago have their eyes open
and will be ready to fight jimcrOWiZa-
ton of the schools.
One thing that Mr.. Perrine said is
true: "The colored boys and girls are
entitled to the best in the way of
equipment and Teachers" The colored
children have the same rights as other
children, no more and no less. To at
tempt to segregate them is to take
from them their birthright. The only
way they can get the "best" is to at
tend the Identical schools that other
American children attend. A jimcrow
school built of gold and studded with
diamonds would still carry with it the

Their so-called master followed and
endeavored to retake them but the

point of revolver, and wrapping
British flag about both mother and
son, he dared him to lay hands on
them. Still enveloped in the flag they
were taken on board a lake vessel and
were safely landed in Canada, both

In due course of mail he received a
letter from Queen Victoria which he
highly priced, but some relic-loving
thief stole the precious letter.
Last month Mr.. Jackson addressed
letter to His Royal Majesty, King

stolen letter and was rewarded by re-
ceipt of the following:

into the associations which bear the
name of Jesus who was mo respector
of persons" until they acquire a sense
of shame"
THE APPEAL agrees with every
word that Mr.. Thomas has written.
The Y. M. G. A., social settlements,
Community SERVICE" and all similar
schemes are efforts at segregation,
pure and simple. Their purpose is to
bar the colored people from quasi-pub-
lie institutions, to which all other peo-
pie are admitted without question.
When the ''colored" Y. M. C. A. was
opened in Chicago, THE APPEAL pre-
dicted editorially that it would prove
curse, by reason of creating greater
prejudice and the prediction has been
more than verified. It will take thou
sand years to undo the wrong it has
done. Possibly ten thousand years
may not right the wrongs done by the
establishment Of jimcrow christianity
associations in the United States.
The man who has given so much
money to divide American Christians
along the color line is a Jew. How
could it be possible for a Jew to be in
terested in the spread of Christianity
The idea is ridiculous. The shrewd
Jew knew that by catering to the blind
prejudice of the so-called white Christ
tians would bring in dollars. He also
knew that jimcrow negroes" would
laud him for his philanthropy" and
start lot of colored mems white sill
yer dollars rolling his way. It was a
plain Jewish business proposition.
Cupidity not humanity caused him to
spend his money for his pet charity"
And it has paid. For every dollar he
has put in he has taken out two.
The colored man must fight to fin
ish any attempt to bar him from any
public or semi-public institution.

SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1920.
THE BEGINNINGS OF SEGREGA-

The following item from the Chicago
Daily Tribune is interesting as show
ing the various influences which are
suggesting and encouraging segrega-
ton.
THE possibility of Wendell Phillips
High school at Thirty-ninth street and
Prairie avenue being set apart for col
ored pupils exclusively, "by a natural
segregation" was suggested last night
by Principal Charles H. Perrine At
the First Presbyterian church, Grand
boulevard and Forty-first street. Dr.
Perrine spoke at the first of series
of Sunday night community meetings
in connection with the Chicago Plan.
NEGRO boys and girls deserve the
best available in the way of teachers
and equipment. The district around
Wendell Phillips is rapidly becoming
settled by colored people, and there
are comparatively few white pupils.
They are getting fewer and fewer.
shall need another high school farther
south to take care of the increased
white population there. A modern
nigh school located somewhere near
Fiftieth street will be necessary soon
and should be included in the Chi
cago Plan. Wendell Phillips will be
then exclusively for colored pupils
They should be given the finest high
school possible'
The Rev. William Covert, pastor of
the First church, announces a series
of discussions on Sunday evenings to
consider the duty Of the church in the
development of the Chicago Plan.
Like nine out of every ten schemes
for the degradation of the colored peo-
pie it was suggested by supposed
friend and perhaps there is "nigger
in the woodpile" That is perhaps
