y double burden rests upon our
shoulders whilo this war lass; we
must continue to perform all the
lduties OF citizenship freely sacrificing
Our timo; our money; and our blood
for our country; and at the same

meet their deserved defeat.
Every considerable race on earth
is involved in this world war and tho
future of twelve million colored
Americans with that Of other groups
Of people is to be determined i'll it's
issue.
Besides our standing grievances
there are new and pcrpleXing racial
relations and conditions evolving out
Of this war that call loudly for our
most earnest and immediate atten-
ton. These new war created cond!-
lions are OF such vital significance
as should speedily bring together our
entire race leadership. This war will
result in permanent benefit to us on
