By WALTER J. SINGLETON. Washington. D. C., May 6. 1920. Special to The Monitor.—An impor i tant gain has been made in securing i recognition in the educational world, and a victory, far-reaching in its et I feet, against the exclusion of students. because of their racial origin, from the 1 privileges of higher education. The two most important Roman Catholic educational institutions in this country —Georgetown University and the Catholic University of America—have opened their doors to colored stu dents. Georgetown University is one of the oldest in the United States. It is said that the first president, George Washington, once visited it. Conduct ed by the Jesuit order, noted for achievement in the field of science and generally recognized as the most learned teaching body in the Roman j Catholic Church, this university has maintained its position as one of the leading institutions of learning in the East and its alumni rolls bear the names of a multitude of great men In political, literary and social life. The Catholic University of America is the official center of Catholic edu cation and thought in the United States. It is supported by every Roman Catholic bishop in the Ameri can Hierarchy, every branch of edu cation. clasical and scientific, is avail able to the student. With the harriers removed from "historic, exclusive Georgetown" and the Catholic Uni versity—the largest in the country— every Catholic institution of higher ed ucation is now open to the Negro race. While the doors of ail Roman Cath olic churches have long been open to all, as well as participation in pro cessions and other public demonstra tions. it has hesitated many years be fore lowering the barriers of its col lege and universities, yielding, appar ently, to popular race prejudice. How ever, a considerable element of the clergy, headed by the venerable Pri mate Cardinal Gibbons, have long dis countenanced race discrimination in all educational and religious life, and this new order of things, in which we all rejoice (of whatever creed) is, doubtless due to the cardinal’s char acteristic broad policy and great in fluence. Thus a significant milestone in the history of progress and toleration is passed when the Roman Catholic church courageously puts into prac tice its tenet of catholicity or uni versality. WHAT Ol'K EDITORS SAT. _ Wants Whole Loaf. He (the Negro) plays the “beggar s role” in spite of the fact that he has proven himself to be an indisol uahle and indivisible entity of the whole warp and woof of America, economic, political, military and social He is the economic backbone of the south. He bolds (tie balance of political pow er as he is beginning to learn. He has always been the fangs of the Amer ican army. His blood, suspected and unsuspected, flows in more veins than any other one strain in America. He is still a slave if he acepts any thing short of the fullest unstinted measure of recognition and respect. THE NEW NEGRO, breaking away from the false doctrine of the OLD SCHOOL will never again be satisfied with EQUAL RIGHTS when they are not the SAME RIGHTS. The NEW NEGRO, repudiating the teachings of the LOG CABIN PHILOSOPHERS who have led him into a quagmire of peonage and serfdom. MUST and WILL spurn the Half Loaf and lay hold on the WHOLE LOAF, so help him God.”—The Chicago Whip. Perpetual Pushing. The spirit and determination to stick is the key to success in any an all un dertakings. Confidence, self-reliance, belief in yourself that you are right, will attract the attention of others and cause them to believe in you and carry you on to success. But if you start out with that doubtful feeling and see failure ahead you have already failed and it is needless to start. “Perpetual pushing and assur ance put a difficulty out of counten ance ad make a seeming impossibil ity give way.” The young man who launches our in business and has real confidence in himself, coupled with perpetual push, cannot fail. Napoleon was a great general because he believed in Napoleon and he felt that he could not possibly lose. Theodore Roosevelt was another character who believed in himself so thoroughly that others believed in him and trusted and followed him. We know of no man in our time who did more perpetual pushing than Theo dore Roosevelt. By perpetual pushing and confi dence in himself, Columbus gained the support of a queen and discovered a new world—America. By perpetual pushing and confi dence in one another, we, as a race, can most assuredly put out of coun tenance the prejudices, dificulties and impossibilities which we encounter on every hand. Have we not read in the Bible that “If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed ye shall say unto the mountain remove hence to yonder •Uece: and it shall remove; and noth ing shall be impossible unto you?”— Colorado Statesman.
