C0L0RED CITIZENS PRE-
SENT VITAL FACTS TO
COMMERCE CHAMBER
Atlantic CITY.

Atlantic City, N. j., March rs.
On Friday evening, March "a, a COM
mittee of leading colored citizens met
the Chamber of Commerce in the first
lnter-racial meeting ever held with
that body. The meeting was held in
the auditorium Of the Yacht Club.
The chamber entertained the visitors
with a radio telephone concert con-
Meeting with the stations at Schenec-
tady, N. Y, and Pittsburgh.
After the concert the president of
the chamber, Mr.. Samuel P. Leeds,
introduced the colored visitors and
turned the meeting over to them.
Mr.. Benjamin G. Fitzgerald, the only
colored member of the chamber, was
master of ceremonies.
Mr.. F. D. Francis, the first speak
er, explained the purpose of the
inter-racial meetings. He took occa-
sion to drive them to the audience the
utter folly of fostering antagonism.
He mentioned concrete instances of
humiliating experiences of the raae
in being segregated in local motion
picture theaters and the consequent
hatred that these things .engendered.
He told the members that life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness were
every mans right and when these
are denied it spells ultimate ruin for
the nation.
Rev. Jas. N. Beaver, Rector of St.
Augustine Episcopal church, spoke
on "The Influence of the Church in
the Community" DR.. Edward B.
Terry vigorously attacked the rent
gouging landlords and spoke so elo-
quently on the unsanitary living con-
ditions among colored tenants that
the mayor who was present asked the
location of these houses in order that
he might remedy these conditions.
Mr.. D. A. Bailey spoke for the
West Indian Negro in the community
and mentioned the fact that he is
always identified with progressive
things. DR.. w. E.. Braswell told of
the work accomplished in the dental
clinics in the public schools.
Counsellor James A. Lightfoot
spoke on the need of better accommo-
dations for colored visitors to the
resort and how the proposed million
dollar Hotel Fitzgerald will meet that
need. This met with the hearty ap-
prevail Of the chamber.

RICE CONVERTS ONLY

A wire from Mexico states that the
Women's American Baptist Home
Mission Society has decided to buy an
old palace in the city of Puebla at a
cost of $4,000 and convert it into a
kindergarten and graded school. A
gentleman who has recently returned
from Puebla told THE APPEAL that
the Baptists had sustained mission
in Puebla for twenty years and had
spent thousands of dollars, without
making a single real convert. AS in
China there are a number of 'trice
converts" that is people who pretend
that they have been converted for a
consideration. The people of Mexico
are Catholics. Why should Baptists
spend money trying to induce them
to give up the religion of their
mothers?

A. BLACK YEAR FOR COLORED
PEOPLE,,

The first year of the Harding ad-
ministration has been a distinct dis
appointment to right-minded, clear
thinging, far-sighted Christian Amer
leans, especially the colored people
who have been placed by fate under
the rule of the U. S. A.
The 'Filipinos, colored race, have
been denied the freedom which was
solemnly promised them more than
twenty years ago. In 1921 there was
farcical Investigation" Of condi-
tions, by the man who had been picked
to rule the islands and whose policy
had evidently been decided upon be-
fore the results CT the Investigation"
had been received in the U. S. A.
A man with bitter racial prejudices
has been sent to govern the Porto
Ricans, the majority Of whom are
colored people, who are anxious to
get from under the American yoke.
Santo Domingo wishes to be free
from jimcrow rule but the present
American regime hangs on without
rhyme or reason.
The man sent to Investigate" and
rule Haiti, is the very man who was
the ruler when the alleged outrages
took place. The Haitians are nearly
all black people and Catholics in re-
ligion. Not satisfied with the spa
citication" outrages, the oppressors
have added insult to injury, by fore
ing jimcrowism into the Catholic
churches where separate masses are
now celebrated for colored and white
people. That is one of the sacrileges
OF the rule in Haiti of the U. S. A.
The Harding administration has
failed to recognize Mexico, although
the conditions are now stable and
there is not as much lawlessness in
the whole republic as there is in the
city of Chicago in the U. S. A. The
population of Mexico is approx
mately 70 per cent Indian; .25 per
cent mixed white Indian and Negro
and not more than S per cent pure
Caucasian.
| When the President was a candi-
date he addressed large delegation
OF colored people and said, "Fellow
Americans, fear not, America will not
fail you" Coolidge, the candidate,
handed out some very touching
phrases couche'l in the purest Bos-
tonese, in which he made a plea for
more rights for the colored people,
Elder Will H. Hays and his assist
ants, including the "jimcrow" cam
palgn bureau under Lincoln Johnson
and Perry Howard assured the peo-
pie that the election of the Republi-
can ticket would make this country
practically territorial paradise.
1t was not long after March 4,
1921, that it became evident that a
policy Of segregation was being form
ulated for Americans of darker hue,
Practically all Of the jimcrowism of
the Wilson regime have been con-
tlnued and many new wrinkles have
been added.
The speeches Of President Harding
in the South last fall, in which he
practically read the colored people
out Of the Republican party and in
effect endeavored to relegate them
to an inferior status in the social or
der were a veritable curse upon a
group Of loyal citizens.
The administration has invaded the
states in which the colored had an
actual part in the party organizations
and has practically decreed that they
