SEPARATION OF RACES IN ALL MANNERSURGED INlrs. Deeds Speaks at First of j Twelve Conferences | Proposed. ‘SITUATION IS SERIOUS’i Separation cf the white and ■ racas of Indianapolis in every way. res!- | dentlal, social, political and educational, j Is bing advocated by a number of Indi- j aaapolls women who are members of va- j rtous clubs and civic welfare organlza- j tions and they have arranged a series j es twelve conferences at which the mat- j ter will be discussed wirl women; throughout the city. The first of these conference- was held Thursday at the home of Mrs. O. JI eds, 2iS M ost Maple road, and was addressed by Mrs. breeds. So serious has the situation become in Indianapolis that mothers are afraid to permit their daughters to run errands or visit freinds unless guarded by an older person, Mrs. Deeds said. This situation she blames largely on the politician who has pampered and petted the nogro to a point where the age-01.l rule of white supremacy, on which she says our civilization is based. Is being set aside. She takes particular exception to the practi'-e of negroes moving into white residential districts as destructive of property \ dues in the neighborhoo i and a source of endless strife and antagonism. SOW ir TO WOMEN. So careless or blind have the men of Indianapolis been to this rising negro tide In the past, Mrs. Deeds said, that it is now squarely up to the women of ■iia city to solve the problem. If a iatiou is r. : found in the near future, “eapoeijtlly here in Indianapolis, we are sMng to be driven to the s.ime salutary recourse as our Southern neighbor, she declared. In part Mrs. Deeds said! “Conditions that never should be tolerated in the body politic now exist, and the men In u the franchise has been vested appear powerless to right them, nd on you is rapidly devolving the duty making li- iiauapolis a safe place for your daughters to leave their homes unescorted. "There wits a time In Indianapolis v, hen even the mo-t careful of mothers permitted their ;.t le girls to run to the grocery, or lisit their neighbors without a single fear that the great State of Indiana was utable to protect them from the hands of fiends who recognize no virtue. POLITICIANS FOB E ASSOCIATION. “And now we white f<<lk of Indianapolis are having another battle to fight due to attempts of the white politician to foist an ei’ii upon a thoughtless public by their practice of appointing negroes to official positions of authority over white people, thereby forcing the mothers, wires and daughters of other white men to associate with him; a m ‘St despicable practice resented by we white women of the North who propose to no longer suffer the indignities as a result of such misguided policy. “The n grn is not the eqyal of the white man. and he never will be. and we are not going to permit him to be thrust upon us ns our equal, but prok priety where within five years from today you will !i 1 • find a man in public life who i- willing to acknowledge that he fa vers negro equality of ar.y kindsocial. pel.tii-al, economic or what not. NEGRO TAKING l SI AIK ADVANTAGE. “Under the present civil rights law. the negro is taking unfair advantage of the privileges accorded him and is making himself obnoxious. "A negro may have the legal right to buy property and live lu your n* ighborhood, b it he has not the moral right to do so, when by so doing he knowingly takes away half of your property value. "Such a ‘tions as those of the negro moving in among the whites in white residential communities not only incite race prejudice more than anything else, but it damages the community as awhole, and the best interests of both whites and blacks demand that such action cease. “The truth about the political situation of today, with reference to the negro, is "that neither the Republican nor the Democratic party cares for anything ex '•opt the negroes' ballot on election day. “So you see- it is an issue as old as man himself —this one phase, the eternal race question—it is the greatest issin that ovor confronted the American peopl"ft certainly is one of the great*-*t menaces with which Indianapolis is go ing to have to deal, and the longer she p etpones the day of reckoning tne more violent will be the readjustment. There Plight to be a law in every State in the Inion prohibiting intermarriage between 'it two races; and tbe whites and negroes ought to be separated in nil governmental activities, in the Ar ay, in the Navy, in kg-hoou. and on street' cars, railroad "•••ins. and other common carriers. "There ought to be. and there mnst he before this question s settled, a .segregation law in every State separating whites and negroes in the residential sections of cities, towns and municif siities—especially here in Indianapolis , r we are gonig to be driven to the same salutary recourse within th very near future as our Southern neighbor, and. the sooner we mak- up and adopt it, the better it will be for all concerned.” ROAD LIGHTHOUSES. LONDON. April 28 —Tiie ministry of transport has decided to adopt the American system of indicating danger ous curves to motorists at night with tall signposts which flash every two seconds.
