LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR

The Editor of the Appeal:
l note with interest THE article in
the Daily News, Monday, February
18th: quoting Bishop Robert E. Jones
OF the New Orleans Area of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, on the
Migration of the Southern Negroes
to the North, The News quotes the
Bishop as saying "the reading of
radical literature" and "bolshevistic''
ideas" are the cause of the Negro
exodus. / further note, as a result
of this article, the editorial in the
News for Tuesday, February 18th,
entitled They'd Better Stay Home =
where it says IF southern "Negroes''
are focking northward seeking more
freedom for the exercise of bolshevik
ideas, they would better stay at
home where their labor is needed"
and If ultra-radical ideals are the
reason for the exodus, they are not
the sort of a reason that promises
betterment TO those who seek a new
location" .@~, ~ -
In defense aef the hundreds of
thousands of Negroes" who have
come North, and as one who listened
attentively to the Bishops address,
beg to offer this explanation:
1st. The article inthe Monday
fs BISHOP. only s1Tttially quoted d. the
End. It put The emphasis on '.radi-
cal readings" and "bolsheyistic ideas"
as the cause of the Negro exodus
when this was only one of the causes
cited -. -. .....~--
The Bishop ascribed the causes
TO: = az
1. The lure of high wages in the
North. - %~~
2. Ravages of the cotton ball wee
vii which destroyed the cotton crops
the South; greatest product.
8. The Negroes living in constant
mob fear of promiscuous lynching
and MODS rule 81 -
A. The deplorable living condi-
lions on the plantations-some of the
same as in the days of slavery.
5. The marked decrease in litter
being able to read and write.
6. His reading of the same books
magazines, papers and radical liter
allure as the white man, and, "aS a
result" said the Bishop," they now
have big ideals, aims and ambitions
the same as the white man." Ger.
tainly, no one could blame a people
living under such conditions as the
Southern NEGRO" for seeking a
chance for development that's causing
freedom. Instead of being bolshe.
vistic ideas-:unless the protection OF
'life, liberty and the pursuit of hap.
pines" are bolshevistic-it is bet.
ter education, higher ideals and q
chanc for development that's causing

Springfield, Ohio, has won it's fight
against separate schools. The at
tempt was made in the usual way:
colored children were forbidden to
transfer to other schools and white
children were not only permitted,
but were encouraged to-atransfer to
other schools. Attempts were made
to force colored children outside of
the particular school district to at
tend the school which the authorities
determined to make colored school.
Colored people for once got together
and FOUGHT. Children were kept
out of school, and both the children
and their mothers picketed the
streets. It was a splendid victory.
It demonstrates that with tie law on
ones side and an unbiased court,
fearless resistance of attempted en-
croachments upon the civil rights will
accomplish results. May Spring
fields spirit ever be an example to
harrassed colored folk.

BUSINESS REAL ESTATE

- No better index of the character of
the co!cred population of st. Paul can
be had than the purchase of real es-
tate-residences and business proper
ties.
While no definite statistics re-
garding the percentage of colored
home owners is available, it is well
known that the city stands high on
the list in this respect. Purchasers
of business real estate, however, have
been rare, and for this reason, the
recent acquisition of two business
blocks by colored men is doubly sig
nifcant.
The corners at Dale and Rondo and
Kent and St. Anthony are in the
heart of the colored residential dis
trict. Their purchase by colored
business men indicates that both the
residents and the purchasers are
stable, progressive elements~in the
whole community.
Buying Of this nature makes fol
progress and prosperity-the kind
of prosperity that counts. Too often
the prosperity Of the members Of the
race is of a snowy, temporary nature
A man who hasn't next weeks rent
will pawn a hand bag in order to
buy a fashy stone at a bargain

to pay the gas bill and buy gasoline
for Ford bought on time. The
writer has seen a family that needed

variety. Wise spending and intelli-

SPREADING POISON

The speech of Bishop r. E. Jones
before gathering of Minneapolis pas
tors last week as reported in the
Minneapolis Daily News left the cob
ored people of the Twin Cities in a
daze. According to the News story,
the South is "facing ruin" because
of the exodus of colored labor which
is leaving solely because "the doc
trine of Bolshevism has permeated
the Negro mind" The reporter fur
Their quoted the Bishop as saying
that when the churches took in the
colored man as brother the problem
would be solved land the Negro can
be kept at the beck and call of the
white man."
Colored and white citizens might
never have known differently if the
Minneapolis Journals report of the
same meeting had not effectively dis
credited the News. According to the
Journal, the Bishop stressed the fact
that the exodus was due primarily to
the conditions of peonage and other
forms of oppression in the South,
continuing: ~-.....-.. o..
AS a result, the white man
is planning certain economic
changes in his relations with
the colored man, not because
of a change of heart, but be-
: cause of economic and social
necessities.
Fortunate It is that there is q
Journal in Minneapolis, paper
which has a record for sobriety and
accuracy, for no matter how much
the Methodist brethren who heard
the speech might demonstrate, there
would always be suspicion in the.
minds of Twin City folk.
The News story is not dangerous
because it took one of the causes
cited by the Bishop and printed it as
the only cause, but because it doe
eored the part it did quote and omit
ted the phrases which tell that the
Bishop was fearlessly picturing the
situation and demanding better OPP
portunities for the colored workman.
Therein is the poison. IF the News
and papers Of its ilk can further di-
vide and confuse the black race by
discrediting SIS influential men they
will be doing as much to keep the
black man in bondage as the planta-
ton owners and aJim Crow" proph-
cts of the South.

William Jennings Bryan's recent
attack on the theory Of evolution
causes the Reverend George Craig
Stewart to cry out: "Mr. Bryan is a
conspicuous example of the man who
thinks he is thinking, but who is only
rearranging his prejudices. Few men
really think.

the Europeans? Well, hardly. They
want immigration because they want
more labor.
The funny, inexphcsble thing
about it all is that in the face of the
knowledge that the foreign element
in the radical labor organizations
is responsible for so many of the EN-
ployers' labor troubles, both he and
the News are willing to accept the
trouble-making foreigner rather than
the American colored workman whom
Bishop Jones said was. not a striker
and never will be!

unions, the primary idea is to increase
the daily output of individuals and
thus increase the earning power of
these individuals. In other words,
membership in this organization does
not mean a man can hold job and
draw good pay no matter whether eff
ficient or not; but instead, efficiency
alone counts and those who show abil-
ity go to the top and draw the good
wages while those who fail, presum-
ably hunt another job.
Again this organization is incorpor-
ated. That makes every member re-
sponsible A broken contract probably
will never be heard of. The men re-
sponsible for this have taken for
ward step which should result in great
good. The people are crying about
high prices. The farmers during the

past year have lost millions because
of lack of transportation. They lack
ed this transportation because the shop
men of the railroads went on strike
in the face of decision by govern
ment board. The organizations call
ing this strike are irresponsible finan-
cially-this is, can not be sued easily
that damages might be collected.
The honest, loyal American citizen
will see in the new movement one that
appeals to him. 1t is American thru
and thru. 1t proposes actual service
for wages paid. 1t sounds like the ut
terance of honest men. Long may it
live, and may the other wage-earners
of this land who have been cleverly led
astray by false leaders, see the error
of their way and emulate the railroad
men of Beech Grove.-Ex.

want to bring it in with my other ex-

He wondered whether carrots or po-
tatoes were the most valuable and pro-
ductive root crop. In directions for
finding out which was more valuable
he said: 81 would have ten acres al
loted for them in one square, and the
rows for each, alternate through the
whole square, and each to have the
same quantity of manure allowed to
it,"
He was in doubt whether stock
should be kept in close pens or wheth-
er it should be allowed to run at large.
With such doubt, he set about to
find out the better way. Whether it
will be more advisable to restrain these
hogs from running at large or not,

George Washington Was A Scientific

Farmers will be glad to learn that
George Washington was one of the
first farmers of the colonies. He was
a genuine dirt farmer. All the time
Washington was away from his farms,
as commander-in-chief of the army, as
member of the constitutional conven-
ton, and as president of the United
States, he kept in the closest touch
with the farm program. He received
weekly reports from his overseers and
gave most definite instructions. Mount
Vernon was a sort of experiment sta.
ton before the days Of experiment sta

He was constantly on the watch for
new or better stock foods. In a letter
to a party in Philadelphia he wrote ::
