TRUE lNWARDNEsS OF THE
VERA CRUZ INCIDENT.

y
In the spring Of 1914, occur
red the capture Of Vera Cruz.
Men from one Of our ships had
been arrested at tTampico and
had been discharged with an
apology. But our admiral de-
manded a salute, which was re-
fused. Thereupon the president
went to congress, asking au-
thority to use the armed forces
Of the United States. Without
waiting for the passage Of the
resolution, Vera Cruz was seiz-
ed. It appeared that q shipload
of ammunition for Huerta was
about to enter that port. There
was a natural opposition to this
invasion and q battle occurred
In which nineteen Americans and
over q hundred Mexicans, were
killed. This. Of course, was war.
Our dead soldiers were praised
for dying like heroes In a war Of
service. Later, we retired from
Vera Cruz, giving up this noble
warfare. We had not. obtained
the salute which was demanded.
We had not obtained reparation
for affronts. The ship with am
munition which could not land
at Vera Cruz had soon landed at
another port. and its cargo was
delivered to Huerta without in
terference. Recently the naked
truth was admitted by a cabinet
officer. We are now informed
that 1--WE did not 60 to Vera Cruz
to force Huerta to salute the
fiag." We are told that we went
there ito show Mexico that we
were In earnest In our demand
that Huerta must CO." That Is,
we seized Vera Cruz to depose
Huerta. The question Of the
salute was a mere pretext.-

which the Rev. DR.. Elias G. Morris II
president, has been formulated, signed
and issued by the Rev. Mr.. Morris and

the convention 1t says:
In compliance with the action taken by
the national Baptist convention at its

Of that convention held at Memphis.
Tenn. June 1915 last, we hereby call the
said convention to convene In its thirty
sixth anniversary meeting In the city Of
Savannah. Ga. Sept. to IL
In view Of the many runors which have
been circulated to the effect that there
has been a split In the national Baptist
convention and that there In another
national Baptist convention (Which rumor
we deny), It is specifically urged that every
Negro Baptist church In the United States
which believes In the unity Of the Bap-
lists and in maintaining one great ma
tional convention Of Baptists be repre-
sented at the Savannah meeting.
It is not expected that every one OF the
10000 churches will send messenger. but
those who cannot send q messenger can
send a letter. thereby letting the world
know where they stand In respect to
truth and Righteousness.
Under the constitution there are three
classes Of membershtp-vix, representa-
tive annual and life. Any regular Bap-
tist church may be represented upon the
payment Of 6. Any Baptist In good
standing may become an annual member
upon the payment Of 81 Any Baptist In
good standing may become life member
upon the payment Of 30.
