Let hie now. descend into details.
Ul wiM agree that the religious esate
cf the race~ is at* low ebb. It is
ot necessary to look, beyond the wide
v ' roclaimed* scandal, corntntion. and j
?or<- {if corruntion in high and low
rclesmstical* circles to account for
Ms lamentable religious debacle.
' <rH of the loss of ooliticnl power
nd p' estice c?n easilv b/> traced to
he graft, venality and duplicity of
oo many ou our political leaders,
rhe Negro lawyer presents far too
nanv instances of taking advantage
dace their interests in their keeping.
")ne can scarcely pick up a Negro
lewspaper but that it carries sensaional
disclosures of some Negro docor
who- has -^violated the ethiesand
ntegrity of the medical profession.
The- lamentable failure of Negro
tanks, insurance companies and associated
business ventures is too ofen
traceable to down right rascality
?f the managers and manipulators,
hich facts arc Tvrrinfully apparent.
Thev make a sad nicture for white
^"onle to look at. Those whp^do not
telieve in the cnnacity of the Negro
"or self leadership are faithfully re'ording
every instance of failure to
<ast into our teeth to confound our
toasted claims and pretentions. Inleed
