THE COMMERCIAL APPEAL And Advertiser Magazine Published Quarterly By THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS DIRECTORY SYSTEM, INC. Ford Building 927-929 Market St., Wilmington, Del. (Member National Negro Press Association) Sold at subscription price of $2.00 a year in the United States and 50 cents extra to all foreign countries. Subscription includes a copy of The National Negro Classified Business Directory, giving free service to 16,000,000 colored people and others having business with them. The commercial appeal to the busine3s and professional man is a GOLD STAND¬ ARD OF VALUES. Conceived in the simple spirit of commercial advantage embracing the product of ripest experience and embodiment of soundest practices in business ethics, has become almost perfect in detail and is therefore a synonym of standardized methods and reliability. Designed to meet the needs of business, never errs into the path of dis¬ putes and entangling differences on social issues—knowing too well that necessity is now, as always, the governor of the state of chance. Fashionable in appearance, discrimin¬ ating in style and technique, its buyers now compose the most exclusive set of the well-in¬ formed of our people. Those who consider price are overcome by the charm of quality- matter. Distinctive and alone in the commercial field has only to compete with its own record of disseminating the ablest commercial propaganda. Your plain duty, the sensible course to pursue, is to subscribe now. A public organ of speech is known by the company it keeps, the thousands of business men who read our magazines and papers testify to the distinctive place ^they sustain in the Commercial Field and which is net only increasing in fuiends; but in Teal buyers. Being the first distinctive business magazine catering only to business inter¬ ests it has gradually reached the homes of our better thinking people; because they too are realizing that the economic phases of the race's life now reflects the dynamic forces which underlie our development. The Directory System's Magazines and Newspapers thrive by virtue of individ¬ uality and merit; based on its editorial policies. One number always promotes the fortune of the next. The Commercial Appeal is the sole medium through which the bus¬ iness world finds both expression as to quantitive ad qualitive methods of high standars of business efficiency. Articles are long ex necessitate rie and for the same reason enlarged upon in order to bring a given solution within the scope of intelligent understanding. The coming months will give occasion to this Organ to tell in a concrete way of the iminent importance of transferring millions upon top of millions of dollars from white to colored banks. These arguments cannot be made by bankers, except in those acts of prudence and capacity which will evince confidence and financial security—Col¬ ored people are lamentably and regretably uninformed as to the corresponding safety of banking institution conducted by different races. Professional men generally and not¬ ably the lawyer, doctor, druggist, dentist, etc., are not considered in terms of their fit¬ ness, even though they are qualified by the same examinations and licenses given any other race. It is not, however, that our people have lost confidence so much, as it is that they never had any confidence, and whose attention has never been called to its econom¬ ically. Intelligent people change their minds against actions which are economically hurtful; but when they are not told how and what to do toward colored professional and business men (even though they measure up to the responsibilities and confidences of the occasion), they continue to practice habits and customs apart from their prosperity and security.

The National Negro Business Directory 81 The National Hair Growers and Scalp Treatment Association, Inc. Is introducing to the Hair and Scalp Specialists of this country for the first time a series of Lectures of the most modern ways, means and operation of how to treat the scalp, cure skin diseases and promote the growth of the hair. These Lectures are designed, among other things, to reduce the cost of treatment, cost of materials, cost of hair goods, so that the customer will not be extorted out of unnecessary prices, at the same time giving to the Hair Specialist the same profits and increased patronage. It is a well-known fact that there are dozens of adver¬ tised remedies on the market that are absolutely worth¬ less. Most hair that has been straightened by some of these remedies has not the slightest life in it and conse¬ quently looks like moss on an oak tree. Many persons suffer from headache and neuralgia and do not know it is caused by much of these deadly remedies and insanitary wigs, switches and puffs which have not undergone the proper chemical solution to get the desired result, and you cannot afford to continue greases, oils, etc., for the sake of advertisement. As a matter of common knowledge, there are no more or less cure-alls in hair remedies than in treating the System, and when any corporation, firm or individual proprietor sets up the fact that their remedy will cure all eases, you need not be misled.. Fictitious names of remedies, large corporations, copy¬ righted systems and commodious structures do not cure your scalp or straighten your hair, for these concerns only represent profits and protection in distribution; but what the public wants is results from actual sanitary treatment- Women of class want long, live, straight, beautiful hair, for which they are willing to pay, but they cannot afford to use remedies which do not satisfy. On the other hand, there are good, wholesome reme¬ dies that will do the job nine times out of ten, but no up-to-date specialist would confine herself to one remedy for all persons. The evolution of hair growth is like the evolution of any other progressive mode. It goes from the simple to the complex, and logically when persons are seeking high-grade technical treatment that will aid their beauty and health, various remedies must be brought into commission. This operation insures satisfaction and increases trade. The National Hair Growers' and Scalp Treatment Association, Inc., through its high-trained scientists, has adopted two of the best-known hair remedies for the scientific production of hair and scalp* cure in the chemical and medical world, which carry with them a positive cer¬ tainty of results both for women and men. These Lecture Courses and advice for compatible rem¬ edies are given free to members of the Association, which will consist of a full Beauty Culture Course as recognized by the United States Board of Public Health. Certifi¬ cates only of approved efficiency will be awarded, and members who are entitled to them will get them without charge. Take, for instance, Oily Hair, which is a result of a diseased condition of the scalp. That is sometimes seri¬ ous, as it makes the glands enlarge and throw off exuda¬ tion too rapidly. This trouble is usually caused by an unhealthy condition of the system and is difficult to con¬ trol, except by internal treatment, because a person so afflicted suffers from indigestion or other internal ail¬ ments and must give her body proper nourishment to bring it to a comparatively normal state before local applications will be effective. Imagine, for instance, an amateur hair specialist, who thinks she knows because she bought a diploma, attempting to diagnose a case like this one in point. Would it take much reasoning to show that this practice is not only incompetent and gives a deleterious effect, but is unmoral and criminal, because a person is treated under false pretenses ? These Lecture Courses, concerning the most scientific mode of treatment and application of remedies, together with authoritative suggestions of how t£ make, fit and create wigs, switches, puffs, etc., will be given free to members. Through our Research Bureau we will advise our members at all times as to the correct mode in style, pro¬ duction and poise of hair situations. The purpose of this Association is_ to give hair growers and specialists everywhere a voice in what con¬ stitutes the hair business with reference to buying, selling and exchanging good and to break down specially con¬ trolled prices by big corporations and firms which are ex¬ ploiting the profession. The hair business at present only gives a profit to those who produce the goods and the remedies, and the prices are so organized and controlled that the person who does the work gets the least pay. This ought not to be so. It will not be so if only hairdressers will become members of our Association, in which they will be profit¬ ably, reliably and systematically advised and advertised, in order to get the most out of the business. Persons who know-will have a better understanding, and those who do not know will embrace a better modus operandi that will make them what they erroneously think they are. It is only a question of a few months now before the person who depends only on a bought diploma without a consistent knowledge of what they are doing will be put out of business and rsake room for those who are really learning. The hair business is a profession that requires approved qualifications by some process of exam¬ ination and registration, the same as any other practice. We make no charges to our members for competent advice, and we are in position to protect them from encroachments.

Gentlemen: I herewith enclose $1.00, Post Office Money Order, for which please send me your Membership Certificate, and also 12 Consecutive Lecture Courses as advertised: (Signed Name) Address ©ate : 82 The National Negro Business Directory KILL BOLSHEVISM BY DISCARD By J. C. S. Nevels, Ph. B. We think that Bolshevism would be much less noticed if it were less patronized by news columns, which continually keep the suggestion in the minds of the people and yet hardly one newspaper out of ten will approximately give a clear concep¬ tion of what Bolshevism is. As often as the word is passed around from one individual to another nearly nine out of every ten will turn around and ask what is Bolshevism? And no wonder: for it is hard to comprehend in a phrase. Some people, when they hear of Bol¬ shevism, think of Russia; but Bolshevism is not a nation. Others regard the Bolshevists (or Bol- sheviki) as an international political party with a clear-cut creed of government; but they find it hard to get an harmonious statement of that creed from different Bolshevists. Still others go no further than to think of Bolshevism as a hor¬ rible emanation from Russia which means riot, blood, and death; yet the advocates of Bolshevism contend that it is the only permanent basis of justice and peace, and that any disorder connected with it is but an incident of change. The word, "Bolsheviki," is derived from a Russian word meaning "majority.." It was ap¬ plied to the radical wing of the Russian Social Democratic party, not because they themselves were in the majority, but because their program was to secure immediately the major part, or the utmost, of the demands / of Russian Socialists. These demands in brief, amounted to absolute equality of station, common ownership of prop¬ erty, and government by the laboring classes only. Their opponents in the Social Democratic party, the "Menshiviki," or "minority" advocates, while -willing to secure finally the utmost, believed it ' wiser to proceed to that state by stages, and so to ask for only a few of their demands at once. In ' practice, the difference amounted to a choice be¬ tween riotous revolution and orderly revolution. ^ Neither "Bolsheviki" nor any of its deriva¬ tives, therefore expresses in itsself its purpose or tlje character of its doctrines. It is another of the frequent instances where a word, through its con¬ nection with a certain course of faction, assumes fa, meaning quite apart from its etymological sig¬ nificance. "Bolshevism" does not mean the rule of the "majority" in the nation or in the world; it means simply and most extreme beliefs and pur¬ pose of a class in the councils of a certain political party in one nation of the world. But Bolshevism is not confined to Russia. The term now stands for an attitude of mind com¬ mon to millions of people in all parts of the coun¬ try, particularly in these parts where there is the greatest exploitation of the poor, the great¬ est experience in combinations for power, and the greatest lack of personal Christian self-control. Bolshevism is a state of mind which senses a wrong, rebels against it, and resolves without God to right it. In countries where the most fair liv¬ ing conditions prevail, and the people of all classes are the most intelligent in a Christian civilization, there is least likelihood of Bolshevism; the farth¬ er a countuy is from the Christian ideal, that much nearer it is too Bolshevism. Thus is Rus¬ sia, where both peasants and factory workmen have had hard limitations of righs and privileges, the flood of revolutions rose above the banks of law,, and cut out a new course for government. In Germany, not less autocratic, but more intelligent and more liberal toward the workmen, the waters rose to flood height, but have not quite over¬ whelmed the nation. In England and America there have as yet come only skirmishes between the forces that represent Bolshevisms and the de¬ mocracy of the nation. Bolshevists, however, do not admit that their •system is un-democartic. In their belief it is the best form of democracy. Their scheme of govern¬ ment is based upon the Soviet. Here again, as in "Bolsheviki," we have a Russian term. In Ger¬ many there is a tendency to translate these term**, or to use others in their places, but in most countries the Russian terms obtain. "Soviet" means "council." This instituton was not invent¬ ed by the Bolsheviki, for it exited before they be¬ came a seperate force, and parts of Russia have soviet government which are not Bolshevists; but the soviet system was accepted by them, and since it is the basis of their form of government, it is ( frequently used, though inaccurately, as a synonym for Bolshevist. The soviet is a council of workmen. Every separate trade in any community may have its own committee, which manages the affairs of that group of workmen. Delegates from each of these groups may meet to make the local soviet, which govern that community. Again, delegates from the different trade groups or from the local Soviets may meet to form the soviet of the prov¬ ince, and delegates from either the trades, the lo¬ cal Soviets, or the provincial Soviets, as may be determined, become the national soviet, which ex¬ ercises the legislative power and appoints th« The National Negro Business Directory 83 executive power of the nation. In the internation¬ al scheme proposed by the Bolsheviki there would doubtless be a world soviet provided in the same way. The difference between the soviet govern¬ ment and our -democratic form of government is this: in our form the delegate to the government represents a certain community composed of all classes and occupations; while in the soviet the delegate represents, not a united community but a separate industry. Thus the national govern¬ ment becomes a council of trades or occupations within the nation, rather than a congress of com-^ munities composing the nation. The Bolshevist argues that when the community elects a repre¬ sentative the workman is cheated of representa¬ tion, because the money-eyed class—the capitalist and the bourgeoise or middle class—control the election, and thus the government. But govern¬ ment to consist only of the Bolshevist would make the workmen, the proletarial ,reducing all others to the same rank or excluding them from govern¬ ment, confiscating all property to the state, com- munizing all industries, and dividing the proceeds and earnings in due proportion among the citizens. Thus, according to the Bolshevist, the soviet, em¬ bracing all interests in a proletarian government, would be equally democratic with the town meet¬ ing, and, in Ms belief, more successful in rightly representing the people. The Soviet Wins. This Soviet plan of government originated in Russia with the attempted revolution in 1905. Though that movement was extinguished, the soviet idea persisted; and in the revolution of 1917 it had a brief and finally successful battle with the community representative idea. When Ker- ensky fell, and Lenine and Trotsky, the two fore¬ most representatives of Bolshevism, rose, soviet government, already established locally, theoret¬ ically came into operation nationally. Whether it is indeed in operation in Bolshevist Russia, or whether there exists in its place a bloody dictator¬ ship, is something that clearer light in later days may reveal. It is easy to see, however, that the soviet form could be quite as fertile in the mak¬ ing of locd bosses and national autocrats as any form of community democracy. Bolshevism will persist so long as its causes continue. We have stated that Bolshevism is a state of mind which sense a wrong and rebelling against it resolves without God to right it. Here are stated the causes of Bolshevism: first, oppres¬ sion of the poor by the rich; and second, the loss of God out of the human soul. That there is grie¬ vous injustice done to the laboring classes by the capitalist class is nojt to be denied. We know that there are noble exceptions; that there are men broad of sympathy, generous of heart, just of judgment, who give to their workmen not only their due, but often much besides. But this 'is not true jof the class as a whole. ■ On the other hand, it is true of the great masses of the people, as it is true also of the up¬ per classes, that they have lost God out of their lives. There are few who believe in the God of the Bible; there are few who look to him for redress of their wrongs and for salvation from their sinst The atheism of evolutionistic philosophers has fil¬ tered down through the masses; and the unfaith¬ fulness of religious teachers from preachers to parents, has resulted in making the great body of the people essentially pagan. Theories of evolu¬ tion teaches man that he is not a fallen being, but that he is evolving by his own efforts and the blind, destiny of the race into higher states; that he may by proper exertion bring that higher and happier existence sooner. And forthwith he sets out to do it by force. He is made to feel that he can not trust the humanity of those above him, but he is taught that he can implicitly trust the humanity or himself and his own class. If he can overthrow the present government, which he re¬ gards as an autocracy of the money-eyed and in¬ tellectual classes, the Bolshevist feels assured that he can establish a paradise „in which he and his fellows will be perfect masters. But he can never do it. Neither autocrat nor Bolshevist, neither bourgeoise nor proletarian, is anything more or less than sinful man, whose selfishness, when he has the power, will without the grace of Christ be used in the oppression of his fellowman. The growth of liberalism in gov¬ ernment has placed with the growth of Christian influence in human mind. It is Christianity that has made England and America liberal, and that has at the same time, kept them from license. France in its Revolution was an example of Bol¬ shevism. Its Reign of Terror showed how power¬ ful a godless philosophy may be in destruction, and how helpless at construction. The proletariat rioted from one insane government to anotKgr* until the guns of Bonaparte at the Tuilleries eiicl- ed the Revolution and re-established autocracy^ The establishment of soviet government would prove but another example of the laments able failure of man to better himself. No gover% -1 ment ever yet was liberal that had not in it th? grace of God, revealed in the lives of its peo^l( 84 The National Negro Business Directory and its governors. And what political creed that repudiates God can ever help man? It is clear, therefore, that the fear of God and the love of country renders Bolshevism im¬ possible among Negroes. It goes without saying that the colored man has a sustained relationship to the causes that make the doctrines of Bolshevism impossible, he knows only too well that the doctrines of Bolshev¬ ism are destructful of the purposes for which they are intended and if any good is to come out of it at all even if it were dog eat dog, the table were set in vain for Bolshevists. Let Bolshevists beware. The inhumanity of man to man is finding ex¬ pression more and more through multiforms of mob murdering of innocent people, denied partici¬ pation in the government by elective franchise and indecent segregation in Jim-Crow Cars which have but one logical outcome—Extermination or Destruction as you like, and no set of men in the world can even remotely profit by it, except those whose passions are satisfied only by the spilling of blood—a condition of heart foreign to iny of the tenets of Christianity, and badges such inhu¬ man being as unfit' to live under the worst forms of government of the world. It will be the greatest prostitution of democ¬ racy the world has ever seen to allow curable hor¬ rors to continue against a defenseless people who give not only life, limb and family, for our govern¬ ment, and who trusts in the righteousness of its best citizens for a relief impossible by their own efforts. Lectures and pleadings by the ablest Negroes of the race will soon cease to be a virtue in the minds of our uninformed people, and through their misguided and fruitless efforts will take* up arms against a sea of trouble and by opposing at¬ tempt to end them in death—this ought not to be so, it will not be so if only Americans will act. The Negro knows but one death when he is called to meet the enemy and that is face to face. He never retreats, he never turns traitor. Not classes against the masses with him, not capital¬ ist against laborer, but a living chance for all. HIGH COST OF GOVERNING OURSELVES VS. HIGH COST OF LIVING. If it were possible to explain to our people how many other people they are supporting be¬ sides themselves we could easily solve much of the eost of our high living. We fail to recognize that ^we are ninety-five per cent, consumers pure ana simple, and that consumers pay for everything from bank president down to bootblack. Every¬ thing in the world of trade is bought by the con¬ sumer. Very few of us are producers and the rar¬ est few of us are cautious in the economic use of our monies and a large number of us are not con¬ cerned about who handles our money since we are promised a paultry little interest. The men who use our money earn for themselves from ten to two hundred per cent. The Department Stores, Shoe Store, Grocery Store, Meat Stores, Markets, Real Estate Agents, Hotel Keepers and in short all business are obtaining this high percentage from the use of our money because only a few of us are engaged in these lines of trade. Most of us are satisfied to labor in the field, cook, wash dishes, wait on tables and do the menial work at a very small wage scale, depending on tips here and there to even up odds and ends and go a whole life time complaining that we are unfairly treated when the truth is, we have wasted away our time in getting what we regard true because all you earn pass through your hands the week you earn it for things you have to use, and you consequent¬ ly become the avenue through which the stream of money flows, getting only what sticks to the edges as it flows. People to be apace with real live 'wholesome living must become producers, merchants, business men, capitalists, landlords, factory owners, professional men and women be¬ cause these are the avenues wherein money is cor¬ nered that will furnish you with a surplus in the case of hard times. It is recognized that not a few persons are capable of performing these tasks but there are thousands upon top of thousands who can, if only they would take a little time to consider their opportunities, but all of us can make it not only possible but easy for many of our cap¬ able men to organize business concerns if we would place our money where it would become a backing for those who have the initiative and any bition to rise from drudgery to a position of credit to the race. For instance, we have on deposit that we know of, over $600,000,000 in Banks and Trust Compa¬ nies that are outside of our race, with less than $10,000,000 in Negro Banks and our banks are paying the same interest and some of them more on quarterly balances. Does this make a good showing for race pride based on equal opportun¬ ity? The thing you contend for. Oh is it true that you really want equal opportunity when you ask for it? It is potent that Negroes not only know business but are doing business, and the loss on business risks among Negro banks are far less than in white banks and white banks will tell you so. On the other hand, banks are made safe, other The National Negro Business Directory 85 things being equal by heavy deposits and if you really want strong banking institutions you can make them safe by withdrawing deposits out of in¬ stitutions which would not have you for a bank president, cashier or a member on the Board of Directors and place it where these all and several are waiting for you or any other capable colored man. Here is the opportunity for fair play. Do you really want it? Or is it true that you are not pre¬ pared for it ? The test is here set before you and you have got_to choose—don't ask any other race to do for you what you will not do for yourself. It is lamentably and regretably true that there are thousands of opportunities denied to us that we believe are wrong, but if you want to convert the world that you are really in earnest, you must take care of opportunities that are ai your door. — The interest on your money in other racial, institutions would buy every Jim-Crow Car in ex¬ istence and you could throw them away if you only knew the power of organized Capital or, in other words, if Negroes all over the United States were organized into Boards of Trade and Boards of Commerces with a well defined effort could stop the Jim-Crow Car system in sixty (60) days. Beg¬ ging and cringing for totally impossible things and opportunities which are in our reach if we but intelligently use the honest and harmless means at our command is the kind of absurdity that make men more foolish each day they live. DEGENERACY CAUSES MOB VIOLENCE Evil can not be cured by force. It is proper, indeed, and necessary, that government should maintain the rights and privileges of society against the insane attacks of mob violence and any other like creed. But until the causes are re¬ moved which produce these upheavals, they will, continue, gaining force with every repression and with the growth of obnoxious conditions and doc¬ trines. The cure of public evil lies in the private regeneration* of men. If the home, the school, the press, and every other agency of true teaching, can succeed in turning back to the faith of our fathers the minds and hearts of Christendom's peoples that have so largely been led away by the devilish teachings of a false philosopsy, then may peace and content and prosperity return, then may the oppressive conditions which the greed of the selfish has made be removed, and then may the spirit of love and justice and self-control reign in the society of men. But if these happy results can not be obtained, there will sweep over this world a tempest of blood and terror and anguish before which the agonies of past ages will pale into insignificnace. INTERNAL PEACE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN INTERNATIONAL PEACE The proposed League of Nations is an effort to embody the ideal of right and justice as the supreme governing authority in national and in¬ ternational affairs. All honor to those who are thus striving to establish this ideal as the para- - mount obligation between nations even as between individuals. But their efforts, to be successful, must be supported not only by popular opinion, but by private virtue. And while the leaders of the nations are straining their minds to devise a safe and stable league of the nations which will hold in check the lawless acts of the nations of the world, what is taking place in every large city throughout Christendom? We see lecture halls packed with discontented and desperate men, wh« listen night after night and Sunday after Sunday to the religion of the bonnet rouge, based always on the doctrine of the ape origin of man and the struggle for existence as the normal and not an abnormal condition of life and society. And s* long as a handful of men have power1 and wealth beyond the dreams of Solomon or Croesus, so long as the great mass of the people in all civilized countries have only a small portion of the latter, and feel that they are cheated out of both, so long must be own that the Bolshevik agitators in every large city have a big text from which to preach, and never have any trouble in getting an audience.

This work was begun in 1907. The plan is to have a number of. farmers in selected communities cultivate a small por¬ tion of their land under the direction of and with seed pro¬ vided or selected by the Department of Agriculture. Other farmers in the community designated as colabora- tors are invited to see how the demonstration is carried on and are induced to follow the same plan in their own farming. This work since 1914 has been done under the Smith-Lever Extension Act, a description of which was given in section above on Educational Funds.

PATRONIZE COLORED BUSINESS It is imperative that we patronize our va¬ rious enterprises, so that they may keep going, for this is the only hope of their possibility. Ex¬ cept in the rarest cases are any persons buying from colored stores save colored patrons, and they are measurably too few. The fact that other races do not patronize us is not due, as some main¬ tain we think, to prejudice so much as it is that it is simply going first to its own. It is a natural law that like will seek like. Birds, beasts and reptiles do it; it is only unthink¬ ing men and women who have not sultured in self- preservation that breaks this invariable law. Failure thus to take care of these enterprises inflicts a two-fold pgin. It destroys individual and collective initiativeLand engenders a loss of confi¬ dence with respect to business capacity. There is much of business loss to our people due almost directly to our misguided ideas that we are incapable of doing business. And so fixed is this ignorant notion in the minds of many that they will not investigate with adequate faith and patience to give a fair test. This practice by many of us cannot long con¬ tinue before the very reaction will do the buyer more harm than the seller. The destruction of business due to sparse patronage is but the fore¬ shadow of the destruction of a people. WHAT SYSTEM IS DOING System is editors and publishers, advertising distributors and counsellors, spec¬ ialty advertisers in State and nation, general contracting agents, purchasing and sales agents of books, magazines, periodicals, newspapers, etc., owners and proprietors of The Commercial Appeal and Advertiser Magazine and The Ethiopian World (a bi¬ monthly newspaper), advertising and news correspondents.
