A BLESSING FOR THE NEGRO "Prohibition is the greatest blessing to my race since the emancipation proclamation of Abraham Lincoln," said Booker T. Washington in an ad- dress before the Eaglewood Law and Order League, of Chicago. last week, in which he dealt with the race pro- blem from a new angle. "Nine -tenths of the lynchings," Dr. Washington declared, "are caused- rst by idleness, and then by cheap hfsleey, which clog the brains of l S vhito me}? led colored niell. Take Way, whiskey and you' z40ill deer he�lyziobingi by 90 per cent." As a practical proposition, econ- mically, socially, industrially, mor- t Ily and religiously, prohibition in he south is a blessing to my race. ince Atlantic has been prohibition rritory, colored people have bought ice the amount of property they d before. Similar results are ap- arent everywhere. "Its opponents will tell yon that rohibition is a failure in the .south nd elsewhere and that more whiskey sold. Well, then, why not keep ie bar -rooms closed. With my race is the open saloon, with the physical traction of whiskey, that leads to emoralization," Ethel M.
