RACE RIOTS OF DC.
.SCOREDbY SPEAKER
Or. r. E. Blackwell Calls Them
Blot on Nation at Methodist
Conference Meeting.

washinston's race riots last sum
mer, In which several lives were lost,
need never have happened. according
to r.. e. Blackwell OF Richmond. Va,
president OF the Randolph Macon Col
Iege, a speaker at the Baltimore con-
ference of the M Il. Church South.
this morning.
Characterixing the riots as a blot
on the name Of the nation, DR.. Black
we'll said that a proper understanding
Of the coiored race by white Chris
tians. and a properly manifested de-
sire to help the negroes would result
In such relations that violence seldom
would occur.
Negroes Led Astray.
THE negroes have been led astray
by members OF their race who came
back from the North with radical no
tons" said DR.. Blackwell. added
to this. they have no way to obtain
redress Of their wrongs. They pro
test to the railway companies over
travel conditions, and nobody listens
to hem. They demand better treat
nCnt In the courts and by the police
and their petitions are rejected. As n
result, when some radical members OF
the race come to them and tell them
that their recourse Is In force of
arms. they succeed in getting a fol-
lowing, and there are clashes be-
tween the races and kindling hatred.
Suffer Many Wrongs.
"As a matter of fact, negroes do
suffer many wrongs. II white peo-
pie would try to understand their
position. by seeking out the leading
negroes In each community, and then
would 20 to the civil. railroad and
other authorities and demand that
they get Justice. the negroes would
show their appreciation. We have
succeeded In doing this to large ex-
tent in Richmond. and 1t was the
means OF saving us race riot last
year."
DR.. Blackwell said the health of
i the negro population should be safe
guarded by sanitary measures and
medical service. IL for no other rea-
son than One protection Of the white
race.
"You know well that IL your col
ored nurse is sick, your child's health
is ENDANGERED" said DR.. Blackwell.
.'This Is the selfish view Of the sub
| ject, but It 10 the practical side Of a
question that should arouse our Chris
1 tian sympathies.
