] If in any community the level of intelli- gence, morality, and thrift among the colored men can be raised, it is, humanly speaking, sure that the same level among the whites will be raised to an even higher degree; and it is no less sure that the debasement of the blacks will in the end carry with it an attendant debasement of the whites. [Applause. ] The problem is so to adjust the rela- tions between two races of different ethnic 17 type that the rights of neither be abridged nor jeoparded;... that the backward race be trained so that it may enter into the possession of true freedom, while the forward race is enabled to preserve un- harmed the high civilization wrought out by its forefathers. The working out of this problem must necessarily be slow; it is not possible in offhand fashion to obtain or to confer the priceless boons of freedom, industrial efficiency, political capacity, and domestic morality. Nor is i8 it only necessary to train the colored man ; it is quite as necessary to train the white man, for on his shoulders rests a well- nigh unparalleled sociological responsi- bility.
