THE REASON.

The Boston Guardian edited by VIII
liam Monroe Tratter, is the paper
which stands first and foremost in
the battle against jimcrowism. The
following editorial from recent issue
is timely:
The reason that preparatory Y.
M. G. A. or civic centre is step
backward is that in the North it
means nothing less than an invita-.
ton to white men conducting places
for public patronage or recreation,
to refuse, deny or segregate all col
ored patronage and point to such an
institution as just reason for so
doing, and soon the idea as well as
the practice Of setting colored Ameri-
cans OF by themselves IN all places
for public accommodation win spread
until, as In many cities throughout
the North will be found segregating
or denial in theatres, restaurants
and such places, until 1t reaches the
public schools. ss

BETTER SCHOOLS

The proposed $5,OOO,OOO school
bond issue fer the relief of present
school needs holds first place in the
attention Of St. Paul voters these
days.
Ever since the citv council unani-
mously passed the school bond issue
ordinance, the needs of our schools
have been emphasized in the press
CT the CITY, and to Judge from the
unusual interest manifested in dis
tr.ct meetings Ct the past ten days,
it would seem that St. Paul citizens
generally ale alive to the seriousness
Of the situation that today con-
fronts our schools.
1t has been frequently explained
that the proposed school bond issue
is an "emergency" ordinance; that
it is calculated to take care of i'm
mediate pressing needs. +.
The Department of Education has
for the past eighteen months en-
ragged in thorough-g going school
survey to determine accurately the
exact needs of our schools. .
Back IN 1917, it will be remem-
bered, the city council authorized a
similar school survey to be made by
an outside commission. This com
mission began its work and after
thorough study of the school situa-
ton, made it's report back to the de-
partment Of education and to the
civ council.
This school, survey commission,
headed by DR.. Lotus Coffman, now
president of the University of Min
nesota and collaborated in by DR.. C..
A. Prosser, head Of the Dunwoodie
Institute and DR.. Thomas Strayer,
. Columbia University, brought the
school study up to the date Of the
surveys report.
But the Department of Education
has carried on this work up to the
present time. Briefly stated, the
departments findings at this time
show that: i.
1898 school children are. allowed
to attend only half day sessions for
lack of accommodations that would
permit them to attend school on 4
full day session bases;

To the President, = :
White House, -
Washington, D. G:
Sir: 81
Now that the world war is over and
military autocracy has been doomed,
I appeal to you as the representative
of the United States at the Peace
Table, to demand the abolition of that
greater menace to the peace of the
world, THE AUTOCRACY OF COLOR.
Through the centuries the colored
races of the globe have been subjected
to the most unjust and inhuman treat
ment by the so-called white peoples
Every atrocity which the Huns have
inflicted on the helpless white peoples
OF the world during the four years Of
war now ending, has been suffered by
the colored peoples of the world for
more than four hundred years.
In the recent war the colored races
have furnished as many men as the
white races have supplied, if the labor
and fighting units are both counted,
and now that victory has been won,
it is but just that the color, line which
has hampered the progress Of the col
ored peoples, should be abolished at
once. Not only that, but the op-
pressed of the white race should be
delivered from oppression.
Mr.. President, l shall endeavor to
outline q program which should meet
the approval of every believer in world
democracy:
/. Home rule for ireland.
2. Home rule for India.
3. Home rule for all colonies which
desire it.
4. Self-determination for the people
of all countries, in which the people
are practically all Of one race. or ma
tionalfty and yet dominated and op-
pressed by few of different race or
nationality. i'll

become republics under the protection
of the League Of Nations. These peo-
pie are as capable Of se1f-government
