TRUE TO FORM.

At the Detroit Methodist conference
Emmett j. Scott declared "The Negro
does not ask social equality and never
has asked it. All he asks is social
justice" But, pray how can the col
ored man get 'social justice unless he
has every kind of equality before the
law and in public opinion?" Domi-
nant people do not give exact justice
to people they consider their Interiors.
Scott was. private secretary to
Booker Washington for nearly twenty
years and was we'll trained to reiter-
ate that the colored man does not
want that and other things which
would please the South. Now that he
is away from Tuskegee he ought to
learn new tune

ISOLATION Meeting.) =
The sensation of the Sixth Annual
Conference of the Association for the
Study of Negro Life and History
which convened in Lynchburg last
week, proved to be the address of DR..
p. 3. Crooks, President of Randolph
Macon College, a white institution To-
Gated near Lynchburg. In his address,,
DR.. Crooks used the presidents speech
at Birmingham and endorsed the
stand of the question Of social equality
and racial amalgamation recently TAX
en- by President Harding. DR.. Crooks
advised the audience of nearly one
thousand Of the leading colored citi-
zens of Lynchburg to "develop a self
respect" and to recognize the elm
possible gulf that forever separates
the Negro from the whites" Every
colored man or woman who cultivates
little flower garden and paints the
fence in front of his home is helping
the race by this visible evidence Of
self respect" continued the worthy
doctor. "Ask your leaders if I am
not right on this score. Ask DR..
Motion. | am sure that he will agree
with me-"
At the conclusion of the address DR..
G. G. Woodson, director of the associ-
alton, rose to make reply as a breath
less silence fell upon the great gather
ing. Speaking clearly, slowly and in
most emphatic manner, the director
opened his remarks by stating first
that ne wanted to give DR.. Crooks a
little information on the race question.
He then proceeded to enlighten the
worthy doctor to the effect that
President Harding nor any other
white man could speak for colored
people because they did not know
what they were thinking about; Sec
ondly he stated very decidedly that
neither was Robert Russo Motion in
position to speak for Negroes because
his so-called leadership had long since
been repudiated by all intelligent and
self-respecting colored men. "My
dear sir, continued DR.. Woodson, "you
and all white men have the wrong
conception of what colored men mean
by social equality. We are not seek
ing to marry white women, red wo-
men, yellow women, or any other
color Of women; but we do want to
ride decently in railroad train or
street car when we come into your
State Of Virginia. We do want the
right to go to the polls and exercise
our. constitutional right to vote and
to hold office; we do want the priv
ilege Of sitting where we please in
theatres, railroad stations and any
other places of public assembly. And
for these rights the colored man in
tends to fight-until he dies"

Social Equality.
(From the Seattle ENTERPRISE. J

" 1OIl Vic OSdCClc LuLoipIlS0.)
"Social equality" is meaningless
term in democracy, where class and
caste divisions are inconsistent with
the very foundation of society. The
artificial social separation of individu-
ais of different races merely makes
matters worse by preventing them
from understanding one another and
working together along the lines of
the innumerable civic interests COM
mon to all citizens. 1t is the business
Of every person, of any race, to select
his own personal associates on
grounds Of congeniality, community
Of interests and personal approval.
Each person is the equal of those who
like him we'll enough to associate with
him as such, and his refusal to so base
his choice of associates on accidents of
birth, or wealth is nobody's business
but his own. Those too narrow mind
ed to do likewise have the privilege
of doing as they see fit. AS to inter-
marriage, this, too, is an affair of in
dividuals W ich does not in any way
deserve to be made a public issue.

No More Blind Allegiance to Repub-
Iican Party. 4

(From the Star, Newport News, Va.)
The President may be assured that
he will never live to see the colored
man pay the same blind allegiance to
the Republican party which has
marked his conduct in the past: Like
other groups in this country, the col
ored mans support will go to the
party which offers the nearest ap-
proach to the giving Of the race the
same rights and privileges extended
to other citizens Of the country.
But for the failure Of ex-President
Wilson to keep his prediction prom
Uses, Mr.. harding would never have
gotten the solid colored vote, which
was cast for him in his election to
the Presidency, and now that Presi-
dent Harding has handed the colored
brother the same sop which marked
their treatment by Mr.. Wilson, he will
be governed by far different condi<
tions in his support of parties in tbe
future.

would incu]cate in it the wish to i'm

Of aspirations all it's own. Out of
such racial ambitions and pride will
come natural segregations.
The one thing we must sedulously
avoid is the development of group and

There has been a time when we heard
too much about the labor vote, the

would array class against class and

found little to reward their efforts.
Is the President calling himself a

Can he not see his failure to recog-

the menace of all group exclusiveness
and segregation in the forced segre-

New York, July 24.-A review of the work of the Rockefeller founda- tion in 1920, made public today, showed that the organization extend ed its activities to virtually every quarter of the globe, and that med ical institutions in countries of both hemispheres were benefited by dona- tions.
 The foundation brought to close its participation in wartime emer- gency relief by giving million dol lars to European children. A million francs were appropriated for the Queen Elizabeth foundation for med cal research in Belgium, and an agreement was entered into whereby the foundation will contribute toward the complete rebuilding of the med ical school of the University of Brus- sels.
 Thirty-one hospitals in China were aided in increasing their efficiency and the foundation continued to maintain and construct a modern medical school in Picking.
 In Sas Paulo, Brazil, 8 contribu- tion was made toward the teaching of hygiene in the medical school there. A campaign against yellow fever was waged in South and Cen tral America, as well as in West Africa.
 In the United States aid was ex- tended to government agencies Tn combating malaria in 10 states or the south. and southern states also benefited in the fight against hook worm, as did Is foreign nations.

Paris, July 24-"The British are lined up with the Germans against the French" says the semiofticial T-mpes, apparently reflecting the grave concern shown by officials and French newspapers over the dead lock between Great Britain and France in the upper silesian ques- tion.
 Both the Temps and the Journal des Debath contends that Germany is doing it's utmost to impede a solu- tion. The Temps says there s no use concealing the true situation and reminds the public that the British charge de'affaires informed France last night that France ought not to send a division to Upper Silesian without the approval of the other al- lies, which it points, out, is exactly the argument Germany presented.
 The Temps remarks that the Brit ish have likewise followed the same course as the Germans in objecting that there was no immediate Hanger of trouble in Upper Silesia.
