Urban League Off
GERS Tour North
President Wood and Secre.
tary Jones Visit Indus
trial Centers on Good
Will Trip

l.. Hollingsworth Wood, president of
the National Urban League, and Eu-
gene Kinckle Jones, its executive sec
retary, are this week visiting cities of
the North and West in the interest of
better relations between the races and
larger industrial opportunities of Ne
gro working men. They left New York
City on March 10 and made their first
stop in Pittsburgh, where they visited
industrial plants and held conferences
with leading white and colored citi-
zens in the interest of the social well
fare of Negroes along the lines of the
leagues improvement program. From
Pittsburgh their itinerary comprised
Columbus, Ohio; Louisville st. Louis,
Kansas City, Mo-; Kansas City, Kan.
Chicago, Detroit, Toledo, Cleveland and
Buffalo.
The increasing migration to the
North of Negroes from the South and
the attendant problems of health,
housing, recreation and industry which
the new adjustment needs entail rem
der this most opportune time for
such a trip. 1t is generally conceded
that Mr.. Wood, though white man,
is most sympathetic with the Negroes
claim for equal opportunity and has
an unusual understanding of the Ne
gro's point of view in his efforts to
attain the higher things of life.
Mr. Wood is of Quaker parentage, a
lawyer by profession, and is serving
on the board of directors of many edu-
cational Institutions and liberal move
ments.
Mr.. Jones has been executive sec
retary of the Urban League for twelve
years. The league is now located in
forty cities and spent $250,0OO last
year in promoting its activities.

Shall Tuskegee Hos

Whites?
Surgeon-in-Chief and Head
Nurses to Be of Political
Selection, Is the Rumor

Word comes to the Eagle that ar
rangements have been made to man
the Veterans hospital at Tuskegee
with white heads and the lower places
with colored nurses and physicians.
Why should this be? There are men
in this nation who have seen overseas
duty and are capable of manning this
hospital. There are men here in the
city of Washington who are capable of
manning it. Why must this new in
stitution built for colored soldiers on
a site peculiarly dedicated to colored
uplift and progress, be manned by
members of the other race?
We wonder how the crackers in Ala
bama will view this living together Of
white and colored professional people

their stated policy of segregation?

Navy Promises In
quiry Into Virgin Is
landers' Complaints

Theodore Roosevelt, assistant secre'
tary of the navy, has written to the
National Association for the Advance
ment of ColOred People promising in
vestigation of complaints that free
speech is being denied the natives of
the Virgin Islands.
Complaint had been forwarded to
Mr.. Roosevelt in the following letter
written by James Weldon Johnson
secretary of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie.
II send you enclosed clipping
from the March issue of The Nation
the same being an article by Arthur
Warner on a recent trial of an editor
of newspaper in the Virgin Islands
for criticism of local administrative
officials and his punishment for such
criticism. These facts have been thor
oughly cOrroborated by personal cor
respondence with prominent individ-
uals in the Virgin Islands.
"On the surface this appears to be
ii violation of the right to free speech
among the Virgin Islanders, which
am sure you would not approve.
I'VE are requesting that you be good
enough to institute an investigation of
these facts and correction of what
appears to be gross evil. We will
appreciate your immediate attention
to this matter"
The editor punished for criticising
local officials is Morenga Bonaparte,
sub-editor of the Emancipation, pub
lished at st. Thomas, Virgin Islands.
The Colorado statesman., 1923-03-24

. If we are to be segregated because
we are sick with cOlored skins and
curled hair, then give us our own
nurses to care for us and our own ply
sicians to direct that care. And if
we have our own nurses and our own
physicians then by all means let us
have our own in charge of the entire
institutions.
Remember it was said that we would
not fight under colored officers, and
we knocked that lie into cooked hat,
vet the colored officers We're gradually
displaced or left home so that those
places might be given to white men
from the South.
We wonder if the white Southerner
loses his hatred of segregation when
he sees a big salary and prestige in
sight?
We wonder If the white Southerner
would turn down the headship of Tus-
kegee If it were offered to him?
We are thinking of these things now
and waiting to find if the white man
keeps his word and his policy or poses
for reasons of greed and pure bunk.
When we discover the truth, look out.
