Fifty Years as Inspira-
ton For Work

"Colored people of the United
States have every reason to feel proud
of their record in the military history
of this country, and deserve credit for
their efforts toward the uplift of the
colored race said Senator Moses f.
Clapp, of Minnesota, statesman and
lawmaker. who was principal speaker
al meeting of the Peoples Forum"
yesterday in Technical High School
auditorium, attended by 1000 people.
The subject of the Senator's address
was Opportunity For the Colored
People" He spoke about the many
opportunities limited to only a few,
and told of a number of instances
where obstacle after obstacle had
been overcome by colored people not
only in bettering their condition, but
in the uplifting of their race. He
reefrred to Napoleon, Lincoln and
Grant as examples of men who had
accomplished much by hard work.
Senator Clapp urged colored people
to fight hard, be faithful to all duties,
and look forward to the time when
race prejudice shall cease and men
he regarded for their merits. Con-
tinuing he urged closer attention to
civic righteousness. purity of life,
temperance and a desire for higher
motives"
