tlie white man and to the white man
such dollar is destined to return.
When we argue'for Negroes to trade
with Negroes we are only urging N'egriies
to let other Negroes handle
their dollars, for in so doing, places
of employment are made for Negroes!
In nrmiorl urn as Wgropi* nrr nllmu il
to handle sunn of the money which
Negroes spend, will Negroes develoo
the high art of commerce and busi-i
hess so essential to the Ne^rjols. fur*
ther progress*.in this country. Suppose
a Negro desires a shoe shine!
He may go to a Negro parlor or to
that of some other nationality. The
dime spent with others than the Negro
secures services aifd possibly no
more. .Such dime, does single duty.
Suppose that same dime were spent
with a Negro; it does double duty in
thfit it not only secures the desired
shine but it makes a place for a Negro
boot-black. AS WITH OUR
DI.MHS SO WITH OUR DOLLARS!
This doctrine of the "Double-Duty*
Dollar" may be dangerous when it is
mi.suiid'ci-st'o'dd as a.^boycott against
the white man and -1i"is business;' but
when it is clear that a Negro cannot
boycott the white map even if he tried
it will also be clear that liberal whites
themselves will not gainsay the doch*mt*7?MosU-^wbite
business can live
vvithoifPfsVgroes but little if any Ne<ro
buxine->s-ean-4ive without them.
The "Double.Duty-Dollar" erospel is
not a form of spite work with which

r- ness with Negro banks not to spite
the white banks but as the only guarI
a nice of Negro banks. That these
i banks should at times fail is not a !
cause for loss of confidence; but.a.'
l_ cause for just pride that the Negro j
has ti ed and is trying! There is no !
i greater reflection on a Negro thun j
s that a Negro bank iri his community r
l should fail without his sharing the j
> loss. The Negroes who supported'
L.ihe Metropolitan have not failed even j
, though the bank has closed its doors.
The Negro of tomorrow will profit by.,
what seems to be the failures of the !
i Negro of today! This writer has al-j
> ways congratulated himself on being j
a depositor in the Mechanic? Bank 1
which failed a few years ago. Lot |
l this be borne in mind, not a Single j
Negro bank or business has failed
that could not have been saved by
. "DoUble-Duty-Dollars."
The gospel of The " "Double-PutvDolar"
is . not a form of retaliation.
It is no part of the "Do-not-trade- ;
' where -you-cannot -work" campaignwhich
holds such possibilities for_cvil
if carried to its-logical conclusion.)
This new gospel does not assume that ,
' the Negro has a quarrel with the,
nmp.tW the, -white maiva^joh nvKue
out of Negro patronage, when i
the Negro has the, opportunity to;
build his own business out of the

1 taliate. Let's have have done with
boyedtting and lets have more cooperation!
Behold there are set be
fore the Negro race today two doors
of economic opportunity, the door of
boycott and the door of cooperation. |
The gospel of the "Double-Duty-DoL jlar"
is the gospel of the lutter door, j
If the gospe of the "Double-Duty- |

what is it? IT IS THfe NE- I

a fountain of economic blessings for '
