Coolidge Writes Praise of The Race Survey Letter of Chief Executive Tells of Marvelous Progress Made in America. (By the Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y.—“ The marvelous progress which the colored race In America has made since it achieved liberty” brought the congratulations of President Coolidge in a letter read recently at an Emancipation Day cel ebration in the Salem Methodist Epis copal church. , The letter, addressed to Cleveland O. Allen, read: “This occasion is a most appropriate one for a survey of the marvelous progress which the colored race In America has made in the historically very brief time since It achieved liberty. It has been said often, but it is so true that it is worth repeating many more times, that there is no historic record of such ac complishment by a race of people In so brief a period. “Measured by their material achievement in the acquisition of property and substance; or by their advance in education and equipment for the full duties of citizenship or by their participation in the great task of building and defending the nation of which they are a part, the colored people of the United States have made a record which they may ojell regard with profound satisfac • tJbft and utmost gratitude.” Letters were also read from Chief Justice Taft, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt and from Dr. Em met jJ. Scott of Howard University and Dean Kelley Miller of Howard. Dr. George E. Haynes of the Fed eral Council of Churches made the principal address. 167 STUDENTS HELPED BY HARMON FOUNDATION (By the Associated Negro Press) St. Louis, Mo. —The Harmon Foun dation of New York, during 1922-23, loaned money to 167 students repre senting twenty American colleges, Flak University being the only col ored school in the group.

I remember the time when every one wore hard leather heels,” said, the porter, as he polished up a handsome pair of tans, belong ing to a gent who had apparently for saken the smoker for an early bed time. V. “Seems to me like everything la changing anyhow, nowdays,” he con tinued, as he whipped the polishing cloth across the tips for the last time. “What’s the matter? You’re not a pessimist, are you?” I inquired. "You surely ought not to be, from all I can understand. I'm told that there are more people traveling now than ever before, which means more quarters and halves for you—an im provement over old times, you’ll ad mit, Just like the rubber heels are an improvement over the leather ones,” I argued. “Sounds all right, but it don’t work out that way," the porter continued, as he set the highly-polished tans on the floor. “You see, It’s like this,” he went on, in an attitude which seemed to invite a debate: ‘Tve been running on a sleeper for over fifteen years, and I’m tired of It — dead tired of traveling; don’t suppose I ought to complain, for when that’s a man’s profession, there isn’t any thing he can do about it. But 10 or 15 years ago, a fellow was always sure iof his two-bits, and he didn’t have to do much for it. And during the war, of course, a porter could get half a dollar from every other pas senger; but now, the most of ’em fig ure two-bits flat, and they want ev erything you’ve got in the shop for it, believe me. You see, the railroad and the Pullman Company split up the fare nowadays and it’s pretty high, as you know,” the porter con cluded. “I don’t think it’s so high, consid ering the service,” I briskly stated. “Service! Service! That’s just what ruins my tips,” the porter fired Part Played by Race Voter to Be Big 1924 Factor Darker Races of World Furnish Many Ideas for Students of Economic Facts. (Staff Correspondence) (By the Associated Negro Prees) Washington, D. C.—“To be, or not to be? That Is the question,” and Colored America, politically, has de veloped a united mind TO BE. And here at the beginning of 1924 it is well to understand that it is a big subject and a big job. The individu al, or the newspaper, that overlooks the fact is out of line with the times, and is not serving the people. It Is world-wide subject, and in this connection there can be nothing more significant now than to quote a few sentences from a recent article by David Lloyd George of England on impressiona of his recent visit to America. Said Mr. Lloyd George: “When America is convinced that it is her duty to save Europe from ruin and that by intervening she can save this distracted continent, Amer ica will take the task In hand, and not till then. "Self-interest alone will not move America to action. There must be some impulse of more exalted char acter. Question of Leadership ”But like all national movements, it Is largely a question of leadership. A great leadership could set America going tomorrow on an irresistible cru sade. Will it come? k’l(came back more convinced than ever that the hope of mankind In the immediate future depends on the ex tent to which the two greatest com monwealths on earth can be persuad ed to work together in world affairs. “I know everything is to be said about America not being Anglo-Sax on. Neither are the British Isles, and the British empire has a greater vari ety of races and tongues than even the United States of America. “All the same, the empire is gov erned by the same mixture of Celt, Teuton and Norseman that ruled America. “The identity of the language must lead to an absorption of the same lit erature for the great name of the peo ple. The same literature in the end daeans the same ideals. “In the course of years, Shakes peare, Milton, Buny&n and Wesley w|ll count more than Lafayette and Rochambe&u. The Influence of the former enters more and more in character, and that is what deter mines the destiny of a people.” Well Laid Plan. To students of world conditions, it Is plain that what the British states man has to say on this subject is part out, sarcastically. “Take last night, for Instance. Had a man with a toothache. He began ringing the bells just after we left Columbus, and, be lieve me, he kept me on the jump all night long. I got him hot water, and at Pittsburg I even went to the drug store and tried to get him some other dope. The druggist wouldn’t give it to me without a prescription, and I happened to know a doctor nearby, who did me the favor to write the ‘scrip.’ This morning when I brushed off the gent, he handed me a quarter, saying—’Thank you, George—l hope I didn't impose on you last night.’ That’s the way they run nowadays,” he concluded, gloomily. Just like the rubber heels, they’re in full style. “No. No.” I insisted; you’re Just a pessimist, that’s all. You don’t even appreciate the extra coin you will make from polishing those shoes.” I added with a good bit of feeling. "Hm! Got to be shown,” the por ter replied, laconically. Just then the bell rang, the Indi cator registering upper one. “There’s that dude now,” remarked the por ter; and before he could say more, a stylishly dressed gentleman entered the Bmoker at a rapid gate. He was fully clothed, excepting shoes, and a neat gray hat and overcoat adorned his head and arm, respectively. -» “Are my shoes ready, George?” he asked, politely. The porter replied by handing him the dandy tans, which he deftly put on as the whistle .blew for the next stop. “Brush me off, George—l’m get ting off now,” he said in a persuading tone, as he jingled some coins in his pocket. “Thank you, George—Good Night! —said the pleasant gent, as he slip ped a quarter into the porter’s hand and alighted on the station platform. “You see there,” excitedly bluster ed the porter. “There’s a sample of ’em. There’s a guy who’s sweated in his boss for a berth and a two-bit tip, just to save himself a 10-cent shine. Don't tell me times haven’t changed.” of a very well defined progTam of sur vival. This program for England, and as It is hoped it will embrace America, has in mind the considera tion of darker peoples, but most cer tainly not on a plane of equality of opportunity. There is hard at work in both England and America, a set determination to permit darker peo ple to go “only so far.” It is a great program if it works. But will it work? The darker peoples of the world have some ideas of their own on this subject; and according to the admis sion of some of the closest students of the subject, there is now going on, and has been for some time, a “rising tide of color.” The shadow of Russia is, also, on the horizon. This shadow greatly disturbs Secretary of State Hughes and others. Well it might. In fact, from one viewpoint, it cannot be fully understood why Senator Borah, who has never been over friendly to Col ored America, should with a small group of other senators, favor recogr nition of the Soviet government of Russia. Russia, without regard to the sentiments of yesterday, has wip ed out age old traditions of oppres sions, and opened a door of oppor tunity to the humbler peoples that is most amazing, according to reports from eye-witnesses. An observer of Russian conditions informed the representatives of the Associated Negro Press, for example, that in the matter of education, where under the czar, the peasant and the Jews were kept In ignorance and horror, the Spviet government has come along and opened up schools to all, and opened up ways for repre sentation in the government. What of the Mouth? In this connection, it is well to ask: What of the American South? There are prophets who say, as In a twin kling of an eye, the time will come when the miserable system of op pression and disfranchisement in the states of the South will be wiped out Just as surely as the thing has been wiped out In Russia, as it is feared by England that it will be wiped out in India and South Africa, and as it has been wiped out in other sections of the world. This is not “propa ganda” in the ordinary sense of the word, It is plain statement of facts, and a study of conditions that Col ored Americans mast understand in the face of 1924 events. It resolves Itself to the truism that “nothing that is not right can last for long.” This is proving true In the case o. fthe Ku Klux, which Is dying everywhere by its own weight. The letter of former High Muckety Muck Clarke of Atlanta to President m ■ Coolidge conclusively proves this. Colored America, in the selection of the next President of the United States, Is not expecting a super-man, a man who, like Ajax, defying the lightning, will defy the bitter wrongs of humanity world without end, but the entire group Is wide awake to securing the highest representative of human opportunity in America, and along this line will go forward in the process of elimination.
