Condemns Segregated Scheel!
Te the Editor et lh Evening Pi blic Ledger:
81r I beg te submit the following
twenty-five reasons in favor of the
elimination of segregated schools from
our system et pnblle education.
First. They impede the proper de
velopment of the spirit of true Ameri
canism. Second. Thev nre In rnntrmllnHnn in
the preposition that the intellectual
growth of a community, along right
lines, requires that all of Its members
shall have equal cducntlenal oppor
tunities. Third. They nurture and sustain the
germ of race antagonism.
Fourth. They furnish a perspective
from which one mny leek down upon
n future dark and gloomy for the
colored student.
Fifth. They justify the suspicion of
n studied design te entab'ish a separate
standard of education for a particular
group of people.
Sixth. They represent the strongest
link in the chain of nreltidlre that
binds free Republican Philadelphia te
lie days betere the Civil War.
Seventh. Thev point te the beginning
of the end of the splendid cducatlennl
opportunities shored alike by all peoples
upon the advent of mixed schools.
Eighth. They deny that association
and common touch which Is the funda
mental requisite te a sensible and
hnrmonleus agreement between peoples
of a common community.
Ninth. They arc ebjcctB of wonder
te the children who attend them nnd
this attitude of uncertainty renders
their .youthful minds enslly susceptible
te the demoralizing effects of- evil
propaganda.
lenth. They arc objects of curiosity
te sightseers from ether lands, who
Hnd it difficult te reconcile our im
pertinent stand for world freedom with
the ridiculous spectacle of separate in
stitutions in which te Inculcate the
principles of this world freedom.
Eleventh. They are objects of severe
and just criticism from people of prin
ciple nnd high Ideals, whose Invest! -ea'iens
of the subject have nroveked
evasive answers and shifting policies
trem these responsible ter tneir being.
Twelfth. They typify the superstition
nnd idolatry of the pest, Instead of
the refinement nnd culture of the present
aire.
Thirteenth. They hinder, rntlier thnn
licln. In the realization of our font est
hopes for the future of American
youth
Fourteenth. They keep the word of
premise te the enrs of children and
break In te the hopes of men.
Fifteenth. As a step bnckwnrd, they
stand In brutnl contrast te the bril
liant achievements of nn age which
thev blncken and uefilc
should be tolerated. What Europe
needs Is genuine republicanism.

trine of "Liberty and union, new and
forever, one and Inseparable."
Twentieth. They prelent te the un
suspecting mind an Illusive, nllurlnr
picture, which, reen through a veil of
deception, ienas encnantment te the
view.
Twcnt.v-first. They offer an nnnnr.

above the entrance te these buildings
the inscription, "Education of colored
people, for colored people, by colored
people."
Twenty-fourth. They represent a
temlclrclc which a few mere gener
ations will complete and beyond which,
the Negro cannot go.
Twcntv-fifth. Te aesume that their
continuation and rapid multiplication
la a reflection upon the Integrity et the
Heard of Education would be en un
pardonable calamity, but we de say,
however, that they retnrd the growth
of that high idealism which all profess
te admire and thus Invite a stab In the

Twin Evils
Te the Editor et the Bvenina Public Ledger!
Sir German newspapers arc quoted
cs saying there Is a plot for a monar
chist uprising en June 28, the anniver
sary of the ersillles Treaty.
At the some time, dispatches tell of
great distress In Austria, followed by
the suggestion that the alternative te
Bolshevism there is annexation te Ger
many. Ludenderff, writing propaganda for
the monarchist Idea, pictures the "dan
ger that would arise If the Bolshevist
mind were te replace the nationalist
mind among the German peoples."
What was the difference between the
nationalist mind as reflected by the Ger
man monarchists in the war and the
Bolshevist mind? When the Germans
entered Belgium and France, they con
fiscated and destroyed property, dis
mantling entire factories and sending
the machinery into Germany. They sold
that was war. The fundamental pur pur pur
pose of the war Itself was te transfer
by force of arms the wealth and power
of ether nations te the German nation
or te the control of these who ruled the
German nation.
When the Bolshevik! seized power In
Russia tbey confiscated nnd destroyed
property and transferred Its use and
control from these who owned it te
these who had by force of arms made
themselves the rulers of the country.
The difference appears te be chiefly a
question et who does it and the extent
