Mr.. GEORGE A. MOKER.
Expresses Some Sentiments Held by
All the Colored People.

On Friday morning in the mail to
the Pioneer Press" column the follow
ing letter was published. AS the white
reading public comprises the people
who need to have such facts brought
to their notice we republish the let
ter as encouragement to those who
done, to go and do likewise. Pub
licity pays:
To the Editor of the Pioneer Press:
May we, as a people in one &C.
cord, answer as did the people of old
when Nehemiah, patriotic cup bearer,
replied to the king, "Why should our
hearts not be sad" when our boys
are fighting for democracy are Jim
Crowed in the Y. M. G. A.? We are
segregated and oppressed and the
bodies of our sisters and brothers
are burned at the stake in the land
of the free and the home of the
brave. We read in one column of
the loyalty of our people and the
bravery of our boys at the front and
in another column of horrible
lynching without trial or jury. Still
in the face of it all, we instruct our
brave boys in the trenches and our
people at home to leave nothing un-
done that will help our government
in buying Liberty bonds and in every
way that we can to help win the war
and go forward in the strength of
our manhood and womanhood with
renewed courage and hopes that we
may realize to some degree the de-
mocracy that the nations of the world
are fighting for. We are not asking
for favors. We are only asking for
rights that belong to every American
citizen, which is denied us in many
public places, and the same oppor-
tunities to earn living that is &C.
corded to foreigners who come to
this country. We admit that eondi-
tons are better than they have been
and let US be optimistic and look for
ward to the time when the fellowship
of God and the brotherhood of man
will prevail the world over.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN.

The campaign for the Fourth Lib
erty Loan will begin September %
and close October 10. The result of
the loan will be watched with keen
interest in Europe, not only by our
associates in the war against the
Teutonic powers but by our enemies.
1t will be regarded by them as a.
measure Of the American peoples
support of the war;
The Germans know full well the
tremendous weight and significance
of popular support of the war, of
the people at home backing up the
Army in the field. AS the loan sue
ceeds our enemies will sorrow; as it
falls short they will rejoice. Every
dollar subscribed will help and en-
courage the American soldiers and
hurt and depress the enemies of
America.
The loan will be. a test of the 10y
atty and willingness Of the people of
the United States to make sacrifices
compared with the willingness of our
soldiers to do their part. There must
be and will be no failure by the peo-
pie to measure up to the courage and
devotion of our men in Europe. Many
of them have given up their lives;
shall we at home withhold our money
Shall we spare our dollars while they
spare not their very lives?
