In answer to the above, I would
state the Negro has come to the light
and not only does he see, but he will
be found agitating in a manly way
for all of his constitutional rights as
an American citizen. He will make
his power felt with the ballot. with
voice and pen, and by his own strong
arm he will bring salvation to his race
He wants adequate opportunities to
earn a living. He wants the barriers
removed which hinder him on account
of his color. He is not responsible for
his color; let the Negro haters take
God to task for creating the Negro,
rather than the created. 1t is indeed
fortunate for the race that at the
close of forty years wandering in the
wilderness we have in the executive
chair of the nation in the White House
at Washington, God-sent, and a
heaven confirmed, and an earthly en-
dOrSed President. A humanitarian, a
man who loves justice, the friend of
the oppressed, and the President of all
| the people. A man who, like the lowly
Nazarene, knows no man by the color
| of his skin. God bless him, may his
tribe increase. In order for our race
to become strong and great, and be a
| mighty factor in American ciViliza-
| ton, we must profit by the past. This
is the most critical period OF our his

Spiritual, intellectual, moral and ma

race unity. 4 divided people will of
necessity be a weak and helpless peO-

The three great pillars of the Ameri-
can Republic are: Equality of rights,
community of interest and reciprocity
