THE BOYS CLUB FEDERATION.

letter from Mr.. Frank G.. Patchen, of
the Boys Club Federation bureau of
Information), 10 West 10th Street,
New York, N. Y, asking for it's CO.
operation in the efforts of the Fedora
ton to solve the vital problem Of the
'under-privileged" boy, one of the
greatest human problems that our
country is facing. He states that in
no sense does the work of the or
ganization conflict with that of the
Church. On the contrary, it is an
aid to the Church, reaching material
that neither the Church nor Church
clubs can successfully reach and with
out bias, placing that material in the
hands of the Churches for spiritual
guidance, distributing to each Church
its own, WITHOUT REGARD TO
RACE, CREED OR COLOR"
Elsewhere in our columns we pub
lish an article that tells of the Fedora
ton and it is hoped that some of our
good citizens will interest themselves
to the extent of writing to Mr.. Patchen
to learn the plans upon which the de-
sired cooperation may be given.

THE "NlGGER" IN THE SEGREGA-
TON WOODPlLE.

prof. Neval H. Thomas, a school
teacher in Washington and an active
member of it's N. A. A. G. p, con-
cludes 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 Colored 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. c. A., Y. w. C. A. So
cial settlement, or school. These in
stitutions 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 we'll remember how
one of these international "secre-
taries" boosted of getting the money
to build 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 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
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.

any foreign-born resident of the

"Mr. Groves object is not the ina

Risk Insurance Bureau and the United
States Public Health Service are espe-
cially anxious to get in touch with
such individuals. The Public Health
Service has set up chain of recon-
struction bases throughout the coun-
try for beneficiaries of the War Risk
Bureau. These are not Army hospi-
tails, nor is there Army discipline in
connection with them, but rather a
system of hospitals similar to the gen.
eral hospital in large cities except that
the treatment is free and goes much
further than in the ordinary hospital.
Recreation, vocational training and
wholesome entertainment are COM
| bined with treatment. While men are
being bodily rebuilt they have the op-
portunity of learning some useful oc-

themselves, but to better their condi-
