ATTORNEY WALTER M FARMER CONTINUES HIS
LOGIcN AND MASTERFUL ATTACK ON TIE
HYDEPARK JOURNAL AND IT'S FOLLOWERS

4 character. Investigation disclose:
that, as a general proposition Negro
tenants pay at least as high rental
for given apartment OF house as
the white tenant before him paid
Also that the Negro buyer of prop
rerty pays prices as high as whites
pay for similar, property. II this
were not so. Of course. the Negro
could not displaee the whites"
The truth of the matter is. and
every real estate agent knows that
eolered tenants pay from IS to Is
per cent more rent for broken down
property than the former white ten
ant paid or any other white tenant
would pay. The eolored purchaser OF
old worn ont real estate pays from
ISL 600 to 81 500 more for piece OF
property than the white purchaser
would pay. 1t happened last Spring
that the writer noticed in the Sun
day Tribune an advertisement for the
sale Of an S-room stone front house.
hardwood floors, electric lights
throughout, steam heated, for $3.50,
on 44th street near Grand boulevard
The writer called on the agent, and
made inquiry of the terms for pur
chase of said property. He was in
formed by the agent that he was
limited as to purchasers, and could
not sell to a oolored person. He
however, ventured the remark that
If ne were permitted to sell to- col
ored people he could easily get 5000
for the property And this is not
exaggeration. 1t is clear, therefore,
that this argument of colored people
depreciating values. has been sufi-
cinetly exploded. What lawful or
Iaudable purpose can this organiza-
ton subserve in attacking colored
people, resident in these districts in
such a vicious and unfair manner as
it is doing?
To the law abiding, progressive
and intelligent colored man or wo-
man, these unwarranted attacks are
somewhat bewildering. When we
consider the colored mans record as
a citizen, his achievements in times
of peace, his deeds of valor and
sacrifice in war, he wonders what it
can all be about At present the
country is menaced by a peculiar
spirit Of unrest This disturbed con-
dition of the public mind has given
rise to such organizations as the l.
w. W., the Communist, Socialist and
others whose principal teachings it
is claimed are inimical to the sta
bility of our Government and dan
gerous in their tendency. The col
ored man is not numbered among
the members of these dangerous
elements. He believes in the form
of government to which the Ameri-
can people have subscribed and only
complains when by unjust exactness
and unfair treatment, the spirit II
our form of government as to him
becomes a mere mockery.
The amazing progress made by the
colored people since their emancipa-
ton, in spite of hostile conditions, is
enough alone to commend them to
the favorable consideration of every
white man or woman.
In a country where thrift and worth
are supposed to be the basis of in
dividual fitness, il seems a shocking
paradox that the colored man should

In the last issue OF the Property
Owners Journal, representing the
Grand boulevard District. the Hyde
Park and Kenwood Property Asso-
cistions there is an appeal to the
wEite property owners to join this
ASSOCIATION if they desire to have
white street cars. white parks, etc.
Now while this appeal IS low and
vicious in itself, it is shoeEingIy
surprising that such a narrow and
preiudiced an appeal should come
from a paper published in the city Of
Chicago. II initiates new doctrine
and exposes TO view the cloven 'hoof
OF the editor of the Journal This
discloses the real vicious purpose
Of this paper It has heretofore ap-
pealed to the property owners in
these districts to join the associa-
ton, primarily to preserve. protect
and improve the property Of its
members within the territorial
bounds of this district; to prevent
the use of property for undesirable
or immoral purposes, to prevent all
undesirable persons, places OF busi-
ness and factories, from locating
within the territory, and to secure
public Improvements, play grounds,
parks and boulevards." The colored
people within this district are in
favor of these safeguards, and will
gladly make any honorable effort to
meet these ends. But surely no well
disposed, fair minded person would
consent to the use of his name as
a member of this organization, if he
knew its base and unfair purposes;
or if he knew that ne was laying
himself liable for not only violating
the Federal Laws, but the laws of
passed in 1919.
If these persons knew that what
the journal contends for is unlawful
if they knew that being connected
with this association that is held
for the methods and
things advocated by the journal and
that it advocates, acts and practices
that violate the law. the writer does
not believe that the names would
appear as members of this associa-
ton.
