White and COlOred
Women Employed
In Gary Factory

Gary, Ind, April 20.-Numbered
among the institutions recently in
stalled in Northern Indiana which
show promise for future employment
for colored women is the Dellman
Waist Company of Gary. This insti-
tuition recently set their factory in
motion. Women of both races are EN-
ployed and Mrs. C. Lindsay, formerly
of Chicago, talented woman of our
group has been made floor lady in
charge.
This commercial enterprise has been
fostered and promoted by the Mid
City Realty Company, concern
which has been largely instrumental
in building up Gary through its sales
throughout the country. 1t is said
that the firm feels it will be an adj
vantage to demonstrate the possibili-
ties of colored women when trained
in the garment making industry as
well as to add an attractive feature
to the bids which they make, for
home owners to settle in the steel
city. The company announces the
success of their new plan; that of
constructing and financing homes on
a cost plus basis and states that they
have erected more than S500,000
worth of houses under this plan.

hospital for colored wounded soldiers
at Tuskegee is to be colored.
This order, said to have come direct
ly from President Harding, nips in the
bud the plan of the Veterans Bureau,
the American Legion, under its south
.ern commander and the leading whites
of Alabama to man the entire hospital
with whites.
lines Embarrassed Motion
The Veterans Bureau recommended
the all-colored hospital at Tuskegee in
order to have all colored soldiers re-
moved from white hospitals. 1t then
placed Colonel lines of North Carolina,
a prejudiced white man, in charge as
commandant.
lines took charge recently and was
in Tuskegee three days before it was
known officially to DR.. r. r. Motion,
head of the school which donated the
'316 acres for the buildings. Then he
insulted every teacher or official on
the grounds by learning their first
names and by addressing them in ia
miliar terms. Warren Logan, treasur-
er of Tuskegee, was called "Warren,"
to his face, and Principal Motion was
-'Moton"
Tuskegee Institute was never so en-
barrassed before, and the new COM
mandant announced that the surgeons,
nurses, and all employees except few
minor ones would be white men and
women. The Alabama state law which
imposes a fine and years imprison-
ment upon white nurses who attend
colored patients, was to be avoided by
appointing white women as nurses, but
supplying each one with a colored aide
who would do the actual work.
President Acts
When word of what was going on
the Republican National Committee, of
which Henry Lincoln Johnson of Geor-
gia is a member, he ordered lines to
stop at once and announced that the
personnel will be all colored.
Henry Lincoln Johnson was in the
city Tuesday en- route from Salisbury,
Md, Wilmington, Philadelphia, Havre
de Grace to Washington. To group
of physicians and others called hur-
riedly at the Y. NJ. G. A. he stated that
he had been authorized by the Presi-
dent to recommend an entire colored
personnel for the hospital.
He flayed the American Legion as
the ''most compact body organized for
prejudice in America"
AlI-White Order Reversed
The entire number of employees de-
sired, Colonel Johnson said, was 400,
including commandant and chief sur
geon, at $4,000 each; II assistant sur

our belief in the efficacy of the Chris
tian principles as the only means to in
sure peace and harmony and furnish a
method for the final solution.
The South is the Testing Ground
We recognize the fact that in the
order of Providence, the South has be-
come the crucial testing ground of
these relations.
Inasmuch as the white and cOlored
races must continue to live together in
the South, we are convinced that the
relations between them should be
based on Brotherhood. Both are the
children of one God and Father of us
ALL We should accept this truth and
frankly face all it's implications.
We purpose to use our influence to
secure law enforcement in order that
all people, both black and white, may
have it's protection. We wish to ex-
duty of the more-advantaged race to
set an example of good morals and
high ideals in private life. Our col
ored fellow-countrymen are struggling
up the steps of civilization. Both
races are deeply injured when any
member of the race that has so long
preceded them on their road, stoops to
weaken their morals by his own and
bad moral conduct. Common decency,
as well as Christian consideration, re-
quires us to remember the ancient
motto of our race, 'noblesse oblige."
The Negro will be in an infinitely bet
ter condition if day shall come when
white men cease to lead him into the
violation of the laws of both God and
man.
In behalf of better observance of
law, of the attainment of higher stand
ards of ethics in race contacts and
especially of a solemn sense on the
part of the white people of our state,
of their obligations as leaders and
teachers we pledge ourselves to do all
within our power to make these rela-
tions conform more and more to the
standards of real civilization and gen.
uine Christianity, cooperating with
the Commission on Interracial Cooper
alton in their splendid plans for car
rying out Gods will.
Lynching
We register herewith our protest
against the barbaric custom of lynch
ing, which arouses violent and I'M
Christian passions, brings law into dis
repute is inhuman and brutal, and un-
known outside of our own land of
America. We hold that no circum-
