even the most unregenerate Democrat
would dare claim that the triumph of the
Republican party on the basis of negro
suffrage has in any way lowered the
dignity, standard or progressive out
look of these states in single IN
stance.
If the Republican party will adhere
to the faith Of it's founders and eschew
the idolatry Of lily white propaganda
and will stand four-square for equal
participation of all citizens in all pub
lie functions it will yet prove to be the
instrument to split the Solid South and
secure political freedom of action to
white and black alike.

Had it not been for restrictive consti-
tutions and coerciva practices, shutting
cut the negro from the franchise,
carried every state iF the Union.
The Republican party stands for
equality before the law. The Democratic
party in the South has steadily main
tanned that the negro must occupy an
inferior political status. These con-
trasted attitudes are irreconcilable. The
equal political rights Of the negro must
be universally recognized and respected
in order to vindicatc the claims of the
democratic ideal. The agency which
promotes this result will bring politi
cal salvation not only to the negro but
to the nation. But whatever happens,
the United States, after the great war
for the liberation of the spirit OF de-
mocracy, cannot afford to be less
democratic than before.

Our Flag S Origin
Various Guesscs as to Whence the
Stripes Came


To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: A correspondent Of The Tribune
says that the stripes in our flag, the
Stars and Stripes, were suggested by
the flag Of the East India Company.
delphia on December Is, 1775, which
Was attended by George Washington
and Benjamin Franklin and others.
The suggestion Of the stripes from the
flag of the East India Company was
said TO have been made by Franklin
at this dinner.
The origin OF the stripes in our flag
is almost uniformly attributed by the
authors OF American flag lore either
to Washington's coat-of-arms or to the
flag of the Netherlands or the flag of
the East India Company. Practically
all these authors, however, are care
full to add that their suggestion is
merely guess, and in all probability
in error, and that the actual origin OF
the stripes is hidden in obscurity.
The arrangement of the stripes in
our flag is different from that of the
East India Company. The colonists,
when the flag was being designed, were
i,nbued with a highly developed patri-
otic and spiritual sense. 1t is i'm
probable, therefore, that the CONNER
cial flag of a tea company would ap
peal to them as the basis for a flag to
symbolic their spiritual aspirations
and ideals
The committee of conference on the
flag, appointed by Congress, was com
posed of DR.. Franklin, Mr. Lynch and
Mr.. Harrison. Colonel Joseph Reed
was secretary. He was military Score
tary to General Washington. - Captain
Schuyler Hamilton in his book on the
flag says:
"To him Colonel Reed is traced
the origin of the stripes in the Ameri-
can flag as q modification of the Brit
ish ensign, drawing of which is
given under Queen Anne's proclama-
ton presumably the Cromwell fiag).
This modification consisted in applying
to its red field a sufficient number of
white stripes to divide the whole into
thirteen stripes, alternate red and
white"
This was called the Great Union
Flag" 1t was composed of the crosses
of st. George and st. Andrew, with
thirteen red and white stripes, and

: The Shipping Board Mess
Advice to the Government to Settle the Whole Matter
s. Through the Bankruptcy Court

bic. The first is that we cannot sue
ccssfully operate merchant marine in
competition with England, Japan aud
the Scandinavian countries, with their
heavy subsidies, free shipping laws and
cheap labor, when we maintain upon
our statute books such asinine laws rs
prohibition on our ships and the La
Toilette seamans act. And, secondly
Il we continue to do so it means ever
increasing deficits running into hun
dreds of millions, that must be made
good by our already overburdened tax
Payers, with no compensating results
beyond making it impossible for US to
undertake and finance other enterprises
that will prove Of far greater and more
direct benefit to our people generally.
The question, therefore, is, What
shall we do? 1t seems the height of
folly to continue to pour millions of
the taxpayers money into a rat hole in
an effort to save what is manifestlv
beyond salvage aud is hopeless and
impossible situation. It is a wise man
who knows when to take a loss. Like
wise it would seem to be the part Of
wisdom for the government to get out
CT the shipping business at once-take
the losses already incurred and charge
them off to the war as a part of its
cost

Corporation is a private corporation,

Der, under the laws of the State Of Del
aware, by authority Of Congress the

ment. The concern is absolutely bank
rupt but for the questionable power of
Congress to tax the people and make
appropriations to keep it going. Could
not, therefore, the whole sickening eX-
pertinent be exreditiously closed out
and the waste of future millions saved
by having the corpol alton adiudeed an
involuntary bankrupt and its affairs
closed out by and through the courts ?
Under the jurisdiction of the court it
would at laest be freed from the blight
ing and corrupting influence OF poll
ties, while further drain upon the tax
payers would be Immediately stopped
and there would be some probability Of
its affairs being adjusted and finally
closed out during the lifetime of the
present generation.

cation and settlement Of the whole
matter through the bankruptcy court

To tl,e Editor of The Tribune;

% thc Editor of The Tribune:
-, Sir: One Of the wisest observations
aver made about government was the
statement of Thomas Jefferson that
the best government is the one that
governs least" This has been con-
Gus failure OF our government in its
rygcent ventures in railroad operation,
and its attempt to construct and oper-
tie merchant marine, to say nothing
o. scores of other enterprises in the
~ealms of business that should have
20 }saen lcft to individual initiative and

The Imperative duty OF the hour is
-atoS get the government out OF business
sesak once. and restore it to its primary
functions of handling our foreign rela-
tons and protecting the citizen in his
lie, liberty and legitimate pursuits Ct
ESppiness.
There was never an instance Of
Stgscater incompetency and squandering

been revealed IN the management of

fairs of the Shipping Board made to

But even such q day must have its
twilight, its golden stairway to the

From lyric youth to the tragic
grandeur Of its old ass, the borders 81

Snow Hill Institute
School That Is Doing Good Work in
the Heart of the Black Belt

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: During the last few months the
very worst side of the race relation
ships in this country, and especially in
the South, has crowded out of the news
the less spectacular, but significant,
forces for constructive betterment in
the so-called negro problem. These
forces are in the South largely the
comparatively modest schools which
have been founded by colored men and
women who caught the inspiration of
service while students at Hampton or
Tuskegee. Besides the direct effect
which these schools exert upon the
material an intellectual wellbeing of
their pupils they have an equally i'm
portant indirect influence on the rela-
lions between the races 1t is the
ignorant negro who becomes the easy
victim of peonage conditions; educa-
ton is his best safeguard, and, Incl
dentally, protects the INSCRIPTIONS
white employer from the temptation to
exploit him.
Such school is Snow Hill Normal
and Industrial Institute, which WAS
founded in the heart of the Black Belt
Cat Snow Hill, Ala.) twenty seven years
ago by William j. Edwards, then re-
Gently graduated from Tuskegee. Be
ginning in a rented log cabin with three
students in a community where both
white and colored people eyed the ven
~ ;a,1
wards has developed school which has
won their Friendship and exerts a good
influence over considerable district.
Last year there were 400 students, rep
resenting thirtythree counties Of Ala
bama and eight other Southern states
They were taught by twenty-five teach
ers and the school plant consisted OF
more than twenty buildings and 1900
acre sof land with property valuation
of $4,000.
More than 1000 graduates and ex-
students have gone out from the school
to almost every state in the Union.
Some of theme have won distinction,
two as founders of their own schools
in the South, and the others doing cred
table work in their communities as
farmers, carpenters, masons, teachers
IN the public schools, mail carriers and
SO forth. Everywhere they are working
for better understanding and more
cordial relationship between the two
races, and nowhere is this truer than
IN the immediate vicinity of Snow Hill,
1t now takes $4,000 year to carry
on the work of the school, and this year
an additional $4,000 is essential; for re-
pairs and improvements which have ac
cumulated during and since the war.
Heretofore the burden of raising the
necessary funds has been carried al
most entirely by Mr.. Edwards, but the
trustees feel strongly that he should
be freed from as much of this work as
possible to give closer supervision to
the school, and they therefore beg per-
mission TO appeal to your readers for
cooperation in support of Snow Hill,
