DRAWING THE COLOR LINE INDENVER, COLORADO.
Attempts Aro Doing Miulo to DrawColor Lino at Union Station and
Rc<l Cross Hospital.Last woolc, ono of Denver's most
prominent colored men, an inspectorof tho city and active Mason was re¬fused admission on account of liiscolor by Mr. p. j. Chamberlain,chairman of the Denver Chapter,American Red Cross conducting thoEmorgoncy Hospital at El JebelTemple, a recluse of tho High Branchof tho Masons.
Tho ilrst announcement of discrim¬ination by this groat humanitarianorganization of mercy was unboliev-ablo. It was not. until a committooof Denver's leading clergymen andono of our most prominent physiciansworo told by Mr. Chamberlain thatthe colored man could not enter thoinstitution that wo believed tho re¬
port.To tho committee, Mr. Chamber¬
lain assumed tho responsibility fortho discrimination and expressed sur¬
prise that the colored people shouldcome to him, knowing that whltopeoplo did not. want to bo in suchplaces with them,
Tho committee called Mr. Cham¬berlain's attention to tho fact thatthere were several colored auxiliariesto tho Denver Hod Cross Chapterbesides hundreds of our colored citi¬zens contributing their money, time,!etc. to it.
All of this was of no avail Not?until Rev. 1). E. Over, who was thospokesman for the committee, threatencd to go to the public press withthe matter and the ministers threat¬ened to preach it from their pulpits, jVlid Mr. Chamberlain agree to rocon- !sider his decision.
While the committee was presenthe called up the Women's EmergencyHospital and found that there was'no objection to color there. Thenlater he held a conference with thodoctors and nurses and found thatthere was no objection El Jebel.Tho representative of the Denver
Star, sat in the audience, at tho jUnion Thanksgiving service, and !hoard the appeal made for coloredmen to act as orderlies in the Entergonoy Hospital. It was explainedthat their '.luties would bo to carrytho victims of the. "Flu" into thehospital. But Friday a colored man '
was the victim and he was refused'admission.
Think of having to hold a confer-]onco to decide whether or not a jhumane act should be extended to a jsuffering influenza victim hccnuso ofhis color! Think of this merciful Jchairman of this great organization jhaving to call a conference of thodoctors and nurses to decide whether }or not, Negroes should be pormittcdto participate in tho coming mom- .
borship drive to raise thousands of '
dolla rs!Again think with mo of the thous¬
ands of Negro homes in Denver inwhoso windows aro placed tho brightred cross sign, tho emblem of theMother of tho world! Now concolvoof this beautiful emblem of Mercy, jproudly hanging in thousands of our
homos changed through petty, per¬sonal bias and prcjudico to a blackcross of race and color discrimina¬tion.
'
If Mr. P. J. Chamberlain persistsin dragging his personal prejudiceinto that lofty oflico of chairman ofthe Denver Chapter, of tho greatAmerican Red Cross, the Star thinks,in fact, knows, that he is not theproper person for such a big positionand should resign because of hissmnilness. It is only a case of abig job and a little man.
Secretary Dunlcavy was over anx¬ious to let the committee and allDenver know he, too, was color pre¬judiced and the Star will publish hisnasty private prejudice.
DRAWING COLOR LINE IN THETELEPHONE BOOTHS.
For somotimo \>nst, tho telophonogirls at the 'Jnion Station have had!tho practice of putting all Negro Ipatrons of tho Telophono Exchango |in booth "number four" and when >the color discrimination became so .
irritating and noticeable, inquiry iwas made by the colored peoplo why Ithis nasty and narrow prejudice wasbeing shown and tho girls replied,)"that, tho orders came from head- 1Quarters and that they were simply !obeying (he rules."
The Star took the matter up with }Mr. Hospe, operating manager of tho !company, who said ho know of thopractice but did not know "who"gave the order, but for mo to seeMr. Holmes, chief clerk or Mr. Brae-don, district manager, who possiblycould inform mo of the source of theorder. We called Mr. Braodon sov-oral times and left our phono number ;while he was in the telephone build- (ing, yet. The Star could not get in !touch with him. jHowever his chief clerk, Mr. i
Holmes volunteered this information !"that while lie did not know who jgave the order, ho did not believe >
that the telephone company gavot he order, as ho understood that such !an order was given verbally by a jMr. Keating, the general manager oftho Union Terminals at I ho stationand that the telephone company wasnot the person for us to see, as thobooths were put into the depot andwore subject to the instructions andrules of Mr. Keating.Wo then called Mr. Keating an'd
told him of the color line caste andwhat Mr, Holmes said and believed,and Mr. Keating bocamo very muchangered and said ho "knew nothingof the matter; never heard of itbefore and ho believed that tho girlsput such a rule in force thomselvosand that for mo to send to him somoperson who had boon 'discriminatedagainst and ho would tako tho matterup with tho tolophono company thatwas trying to put something over on
htm which ho did not morlt."Wo sont a man down and took uptho mutter with Mr. ID. B. Fiold, Jr.of tho tolopliono company, who after
making an investigation, Informedtho Star that such nn ordor was putin voguo during our lntluonza crisisbut tlint lio could not locato tho por-son who authorized it and that sucha practico would bo immediatelystopped. IIo thanked us for cullingids uttcntion to this mutter of injus¬tice.
Mr. Field also said, "that a bigorganization like tho company couldnot afford to bo so narrow us to drawtho color lino." So in one weok thocolor lino caused by personal, privutopetty prejudices of two individualsworo attempted because thoso peopleoccupied prominent places of respon¬sibility.
The Negro's war against projudicoand custo of all kinds bus Just begunafter tho signing of the armistice inthis World's War for Nomocracy.Think of tho last reason tlmt tho"color lino" rulo was put in voguoduring our inlluonza crisis whon ahundred white people died to ovoryNegro!! Wo oplno tho color rulowus mado to protect tho Negro'shealth at tho depot!! Hud thatmalady been peculiar to Nogroes,thero Is 110 placo in Colorado thatwould huvo boon largo enough tohold tho Negroes who would huvoboon forced to go thero. Denver(Colorado) Star.

Reconstruction Conforonco Hold byThe American Academy of Po¬
litical Science.
Now York, Decombor 7. ThoAmerican Academy of PoliticalScience, one of tho influential organi¬zations collected with Columbia Uni¬versity, Now York City, is holding aReconstruction Conforonco hero attho Hotel Astor. Among tho speakers aro tho following: Honorable WilHam 1). Wilson, Secretary of Labor;Ex-President William II. Tuft; Mr.Charles M . iSchwab, Director Gener¬al American l'Meet Corporation; MissMary Van Kleeck, Director of Wo¬man in Industry Service, Departmentof I ..altor ; Mr. Felix Frankfurter, As¬sistant Labor Administrator; MissHelen Eraser of London, England;Mr. Thomas 13. Lovo, Assistant Sec¬retary of tho Treasury and Dr.George E. Ilaynos, Director of Ne¬gro Economics, Department of Labor.Extracts from the address of the
Director of Negro Economics on "ThoEffect of War Conditions on NegroLabor" are as follows:Tho subject should bo divided into
threo main parts: (1) Tho change intho relation of Negro wage-earners towhite employers, North and South;(2) tho change in the relation of No-|gro wage-earners to wlilto workmen;and (3) tho change in the Negro himself.Wherever there has been intelli-]
gent guidance that the first cxpcrl-jonce of the Northern employer, in'making trial of Negro workers hasbeen satisfactory to him and whereever there has been intelligent guid-anco for Negro woi Iters, the experi¬ment has been successful. Withoutsuch intelligent direction, employershave given up the trial as a hopelessexperiment.
Referring to the effect of Negromigration North tho speaker sa.Ulthat after Negro migration North haddeveloped there was a considerablein reaso in war demands for thebuilding of cantonments and muni¬tions plants in the South, a shortageof labor in the South followed inovilably. Out of liiiis shortage of laborarose a revaluation of Negro labor.Further, this migration to the Northand tho consequent changes underwar conditions brought homo totho mind of the rank and file of theNegroes tUio fcelijiig that freedomamong other things means ihe libertyfor one to move at will from place toplace and to change his job when itis to his advantage to do so.Again, it should be emphasized
that tho efforts of the Department Jof Labor to adjust, (ho relations ofwhite employers and Negro wage-earners in the South during tho tinusual war conditions have been largelyexperimental, but the experiment hasbeen successful beyond the most sunguinc expectation. The experimenthas established beyond the questiontho practicability, North and Southof tho plan by which representativesof Negro wage-earners moot the representatives of white employers incool oral ivo committees and confer¬ences. It has demonstrated that suchmeetings can achieve substantial resuits in adjusting tho local labor probloins which changing conditions andrelations have produced t
