Dr. Washington said in part:

“Pastor and friends. i wish to
thank you in behalf of the institute
at Tuskegee for your cordial welcome
Some time ago i chanced to be travel-
ing in the South and stopped at a cab-
in with a friend. in the morning at
breakfast our landlady asked my com-
panion whether he would have long
or short sweetening in his coffee. We
both hesitated at this question since

punched my companion in the side.
at which he asked for long sweeten-
At this our landlady dipped one
of her fingers into a Jug of molasses
then put the sticky finger into his
coffee. You may imagine that i want
She
then put 11 bit of maple sugar between
her moth, bit it into two pieces and
put one of these into my coffee, the
other into her own. Both my long
and short addiesses my friends, are
i:ntil11ed to be disagreeable but con
sldcring the weather conditions, i
think that you ll got more of the ‘sbort
swcetening‘ this evening.

‘Therc is no one question so con
stantiy discussed as that relating to
the presence and influence of mem-
bers of my race. Several solutions of
this so.csiied ‘race probicm' have been
put forth. A number of years ago six
hundred negroes sailed from the South
to go back to liberia in Al'ri111’lhcn
many of our people thought that the
problem was solved. But they failed
to remember that on that same morn-
ing in the South over six hundred no
gro children were born. A friend of
mine thinks that. we should set aside
11 territory in the Far West for my
people. But we’d have to build a wall
to keep the black man in. and live
walls to keep the white man out. i
never knew the colored people to go
anywhere where the white man did
not follow, especially if there was
gold there. (Laughter).

“While on a trip through lndian
Territory last year i counted four in-
dians. 'i‘he lndian goes back into
the woods every time you whitewash
a fence; the negro goes to the fence.
We set aside territory for the rod man
and enacted laws fer him. but when
l ivus there the white man had the
land. the coal, the railroads and oven
the trees. The negro in slavery had
labor and the white man forced the
black man to come into his presence.
into Africa the white man has forced
himself and already there is a racial
problem down there. The white man
forces himself ovcrywhcrc: he is 11
great man for problems.

“There is only one solution of this
problem, and that is for each race
to try to treat the other as he himself
would be treated. We have ndvun
tages and disadvantages. Stu
history of our country critically and
you will find that the negro was the
only race that came to this country
by spatial invitation. We were of
such great importance that We wcrc
sent in. and we are the only race ever
honored that way. (Laughter). in
this country i believe that there is
wisdom, patience and Christianity
enough to allow us to live and to
work out all our problems to the sat-
isfaction of both races.

in Virginia in ‘58 or '59. We never

My earliest recollections are of a log

something that hung on a hinge for a

closed. when all the colored people
were salted to go to the master's

"But my troubles were not over.
When i. arrived at the school, the
teacher looked me over very carefuk
ly. My toes were out of my shoes and
these were just what i didn't want
her to see. She looked the up and
down, and down and up, and then ask
ed me tosttlnd aside. But. i wasn't to
be gotten rid of uneasily. and i asked
her to give me a chance. So finally
she asked the to sweep an adjoining

times. Pretty soon the lady. who hap
pencil to be one of your northern Yen-
kees, came in her handkerchief in her
hand. She tried some of the furni-
ture and then said, “You’ll do.’ That
was my college examination. it was
the best I have ever passed."

The speaker told how he was able
to work enough there to pay for his

board and of his resolve, it be over'

had 11 chance to go farther Scuth and
to create an opportunity for younk
men and women such as he had-found
at Hampton.' Dr. Washington said
that at the start he had been filled
with the desire to'llft up the black
man at the expense of the white man.
but now that feeling had changed. He
thought that no man could do his

best whose horizon was limited by'

his interests for one race.

Very interesting was the account of
the humble origin of Tuskegee in 1881
in a little shanty and of its growth
until now it has an enrollment of
1,556 young men and women. coming
from 37 states and territories and
from seven foreign countries. Every
thing at Tuskegee is attended to by
degrees. They have their own streets
water works, electric lighting plant
and their own telephone system. the
only place in the country where 9
black girl will respond to the call
"Hello Central." “We have our own
railroad too, built this last year. it‘1
true 11': only a mile long. but it's just
as wide as the New York and New
Haven. The property of the institute
is worth $850,000. not a foot of which
is mortgaged.

'But what is the meaning or all
this? Mr 250 years the negroes were
worked, and naturally wh ~11 they were

a degradation, and were ashamed and
disgusted with it. in answer wc told
them that the lesson to learn in frce-
dom is work iiclng worked meant
dcgladutlon. working means civiliza-
111111 and the only way for a man to
become free is for him to work. De~
spite objections from all sides WI
have gone on teaching the negro that
there is 11 difference between working
1111i being worked" Dr. Washington
spoke in detail of the training given
in agriculture in Tuskegee and added
that it was the purpose of the educa‘
tion centers in thc South 111 lift work
up 111 the plane where it was dignified
and lovely.

* "A few months ago i was out in.
idubo and saw a white man planting
corn. He was sitting on a machine
driving four spirited horses. and hold-
ing a red umbrella over his head. A
little later i was down in Georgia and
saw 11 black man planting corn. He
had a single old mule. 'l‘ho muic

South. Now. under any conditions i
ask you. my friends. is it possible tel
this blur. iif'i‘ruan to compete in the corn
maikct with the 10d umbrella‘ man
out in lduho? Our object is to give
the black man a chance so that he
an sit down under the ‘red umbIcl-

i
a.’
1111 “19+! Dr Washington 111111111 11111 the best

employment for tho negro is agricul-
ture. ‘Our people are at their host
in the cultivation of the land; they
are at their worst amid the tempta-
tions of the great city life." in speak-
ing of the advantages of slavery, the
crater said that '1 the plantation the
black man learned many trades. be-
cause it paid his owner to teach him.
l‘he more skill the negro showed. the
more dollars for its owner. A skillful
siavo would bring $1.400, while the
hundsomeat white man in this audi-‘
once, when some block, would not
bring fifty cents. "We' vc got skilled
labor and under God we can hold on
to it, and we can do this only by
teaching our boys to do the work Just
1111 well and and little better than the
white man."

Dr. Washington told of the degrad
lug conditions in the "negro belt" of
the South. particularly in matters of
education. and related several touch-
ing incidents of the selfascrince of
some of the Tuskegee students. He
11111111 forth considerable applause
when he said that colored people did
not ask for charity. "Very seldom you

for aims from a street corner.“ said
the speaker. "The race does not need
charity. All that we need are men
Ind women to send put to show our
people how to help themselves." '

The speaker closed his remarks with

an appeal to the people of The Nor-1

walks for his school and with this
anecdote: "in the Civil War a colored

After the lec‘luro scores of people
pressed forward to grasp the hand of
the orator, and later D1. Washington
was entertained in the lecture room by
the members of the industrial League
and their friends.
