Maier & Berkele
In the course of his annual address
to the members of the National Negro
Business League at Big Bethel church
Wednesday night, Booker T. Washing
ton, president of the league, gave the
members of hla race some sterling ad
vice. The following la an extract from
hla address;
It la well that the National Negro
Business League holds this acaalon
right here In the heart of the South,
where tho great body of our people
live and where their salvation la to be
worked out. Thla organisation does
not undertake to concern Itself with
all the Interests of the race, for there
are other organizations that deal with
the polities!, religious and educational
Interests of our people.
From the first, and I hope thla meet
Ing will prove no exception, the Na
tional Negro Business League has
steadfastly held to the policy of stimu
lating the activities of our people In
the direction of agriculture, Industrial
and business enterprises. It Is the
policy of this organisation to hold up
before the race Its advantages rather
than Its disadvantages, Its successes
rather than its failures; to call tho at
tention of the world to the efforts of
our friends rather than to those of our
enemies.
We believe that while the world may
pity a crying, whining race, It seldom
respects |t. In a word, the National
Negro Business League, while not over
looking or Justifying Injustice or wrong
or falling to recognise the value of
other methods seeking to reach the
same end, feels that the race can make
progress and secure the greatest pro
tection by Its efforts In progressive,
constructive directions, by constantly
presenting to the world tangible and
visible evidences of our worth as a
race. We believe that the Influence of
one great success In really accomplish
ing something that the world respects
will go furthest In promoting our In
terests. Let constructive progress be
the dominant note among us In every
section of America. An Inch of pro
gress Is worth more than a yard of
fault-finding. The races that have
grown strong and useful have not done
so by depending upon finding fault with
others, but by presenting to the world
evidences of the progress In agricul
ture, Industrial nnd business life, as
well as through religious, educational
and civic growth.
Right here In Georgia we have abun
dant evidence that the negro, In spite
of difficulties, Is learning this lesson at
a rapid rate. It Is safe to say that the
negro In Georgln owns at least |!0,-
000,000 worth of taxable property, and
that our people In other sections of the
South have made almost equal pro
gress. Within the past year I have In
spected and studied the conditions and
progress of our people In the Northern
nnd Western states as I have never
done before, and I have no hesitation
In reaffirming my former opinion that
the Southern states offer the best
permanent abode for the masses of
our people. While many Individuals
may find prosperity outside iff the
South and have the right to make the
effort, yet laying the foundation for
growth In life essentials, which this
rganlsntlon seeks first of nil to.pro
mote, I know of no section of this
country where our people are making
more progress and where tile future Is
more full of promise than right here In
the South. In thus expressing myself, I
do not overlook the fart that we have a
highest degree creditable, nor do
overlook tnoso things In the South,
which often discourage many of our
pcoplef
Does Not Fear Immigration,
In connection with jour future here
In the South, I do not share the fear
that Immigration will retard or pre
veqt our progress. The millions of
unoccupied and unused acres In the
South have yet to be used by some one,
and the preaent scarcity of all forms of
labor upon which business prosperity
In a large measure rests, cannot always
remain unsatisfied. A few thousand
strong, sturdy, thrifty foreigners
each county will go far toward quick
ening our energy nnd sharpening our
wits, by bringing their healthy compe
tition which la very much needed In
many sections of the South. Our sal
vation Is to be found not In our ability
to keep nnother race out of territory,
but In our learning to get as much
out of the soli, out of the occupations,
or business, as any other race can get
out of theirs.
The more I study our conditions nnd
needs, tho more I am convinced that
there Is no surer road by which we can
reach civic, moral, educational and
religious development than by laying
the foundation In tho ownership and
cultivation of the soil, tho saving of
money, commercial growth and the
skillful, conscientious performance of
any duty with which ws are entrusted.
This policy does not mean the limiting
or circumscribing of the activities or
ambitions of the race. Progress through
this method means the exercise of
patience, faith, courage and eternal
vigilance, but there Is no escape from
It. It Is the road that all nations havs
traveled, which hpve gotten upon their
feet.
There Is much that the brave, Intel
ligent, patriotic white men of America
can do for us; there Is much that wo
can do for ourselves. The executive
authorities should see to It that every
law Is enforced, regardless -of race or
color, that the weak are protected
against Injustice from the strong. We
have examples In several Southern
States that this Is being done In an
encouraging degree. Without thla en
couragement and protection of the law
It Is not possible for the negro to suc
ceed as a laborer, or In any line of bus
iness.
Ntgro Commits Too Much Crime.
On the negro's part we have a duty.
Our leaders should see to It that the
criminal negro Is gotten rid of when
ever possible. Making all allowances
for mistakes. Injustice and the Influ
ence of racial prejudice, I have no hesi
tation In saying that one of the ele
ments In our present situation that
gives me most concern Is the largo
number of crimes that are being com
mitted by members of our race. The
negro Is 'committing too much crime,
North and South. We should see to It,
as far as our Influence extends, that
crimes are fewer in number; otherwise
the race will permanently suffer. The
crime of lynching everywhere and ut
all times should be condemned, and
those who commit crlmee of any nature
should be condemned. Our Southland
today has no greuter enemy to business
progress than lynchers and those who
provoke lynching.
In this some connection let'us bear
In mind that every man, white or black,
who takes the law Into his hands to
lynch or bum or shoot human beings
supposed to be or guilty of crime. Is
Insulting the executive. Judicial nnd
law-making bodies of the state In
which he resides. Lawlessness In one
direction will inevitably lead to law
lessness In other directions. This Is
the experience of the whole civilised
world.
In this connection let us consider the
classes of negroes that do not commit
crime and are seldom charged with

those who are In professional service;
those who have received education, and
such business men and women as those
who compose this organization.
I think I would be safe In Miyliyt that
no graduate of Clark University, At
lanta Baptist College. Atlanta Univer
sity, Morris Brown College or Spelman
Seminary has been arrested for any
crime In Atlanta during the last twelve
months.
Ignorance Meant Crime.
In this we have a strong, practical
demonstration right here at home in
favor of eajeatton of all classes of our
citizenship. Ignorance will always
mean crime, and crime will mean an
unwleldly burden fastened about the
neck of the South. The only safety
or both aces Is In the direction of ed
ucatfon, industry nnd high character.
I have named the classes that do not
commit crime. Which Is the class that
Is guilty, as a rule, of criminal action?
They are the loafers, the drunkards
and gamblers, men for the main part
without permanent employment, who
own no homes, who have no bank ac
count, who glide from one community
to another without interest In any one
spot. One of the practical courses that
men such as those who composo this
Business League, our leaders In the
pulpit and every sphere of life, should
pursue, Is to try to get hold of the
floating class of our people and see to
Jt that their lives are so changed as to
make them cease to disgrace our race
and disturb our civilization. We can
not be too frank or too strong In dis
cussing the harm that the committing
of crime Is doing to our race. Let us
stand up straight and speak out and
act In no uncertain terms In this direc
tion. Let us do our part, and then let
us call upon the whites to do their
part.
Let us never grow’ discouraged as a
race. Right here In the South there are
more things upon which the races
agree thnn upon which they disagree.
Let us not be so much absorbed In our
grievances that wo fall to remembor
our successes and opportunities.
In the Southern states the negfo has
organized and is now conducting thir
ty-three bAnks. He has in the United
States over one hundred drug stores.
Almost every town and city In the
South has Its negro grocery store and
other places of business. There Is prac
tically no section of the South where
tho negro farmer, mechanic, merchant
nnd banker cannot find encouragement,
opportunity and prosperity. In this
respect Get us not overlook the fact
that many similar opportunities are at
our door.
very conservatlce figure the
negro Ih now paying taxes upon over
$800,000,000 worth of property—and I
suppose the negro Imitates other races
in not always paying taxes upon all of
his belongings. •
What we have accomplished In tho
past, In the face of many difficulties, It
n guarantee of what wo can attain to
in tho future.
Finally, let us cultivate a spirit of
racial pride. Let us learn to be as
proud of our race, at the Frenchman,
German, the Japanese or the Italian Is
of his.’ The race that has faith and
pride in Itself will eventually win the
respect, the confidence and co-opera
tion of the rest of the world.
