Executive Committee, Atlanta: l deeply
regret my inability to be with you dur

to the vast audience by Col. W. A. Hemp
hill, master of ceremonies. the cheer
ing continued for several minutes.

bloody and barbaric China. All hail the
day when with one accord We shall pro-
claim to all the world that every drop OF
American blood shed by unlawful hands
shall be avenged by American manhood"
No less enthusiasm greeted Gen.
Shaw. He began by saying:
in my recent visits throughout the
south my heart has been stirred by the evil
dence that we are to live hereafter in the
present. We understand each other now
1t was untold sacrifice to learn the lesson
of the past and now let us learn the les
son of unity. Let us go forward until, as
Abraham Lincoln said, this nation becomes
the happy and united home of GOO, 600, GOO OF
contented people"
