City's Missionary Workers
Want Aid for Sufferers in
Congo Free State.
PETITION THE PRESIDENT
STUDY OF CONDITIONS IN AFRi-
CA HAS SHOWN RICHMOND WO-
MEN THAT HELP is NEEDED
FROM THE OUTSIDE.

After spending several weeks in the
study of social and religious condi-
tons in Congo Free State, Africa, the
members of the different missionary
societies of the Richmnd churches
have found that affairs in that part of
the world need great attention and are
now petitioning the United States,
through President Roosevelt, to give
some aid to the stricken state.
Investigation of the way the natives
are treated in Central Africa has
shown that they are held in an OPP
pressed state and are frequently
slaves. The government and chance
for the advancement of religion is
poor, and for these reasons the socie-
ties here think that something should
be done by the United States.
Those Signing Petition.
The petition which was sent to
President Roosevelt, was as follows:
Richmond, Ind, May IS, 1906.
To the President of the United States,
Hon Theodore Roosevelt, Washing
ton, d. c.:
Dear sir:-The Women's Foreign
Missionary Societies of the Churches
in the City of Richmond, Indiana, re-
spectfully request your influence in
bringing about better state of af
fars in the Congo Free State, Africa

be done for the oppressed natives
