Cartersville, Va, Dec. 8, 1918.
Dear Editor: Please allow me
space in your columns to say that I
always enjoy tho editorial columns Of
your paper and your most witty
manner III advancing great ideas.
Agitation has done but little good,
wish you had said 1t long ago-but
then everything must come in Its
time. 1t Is the whole thing to know
what to ask for, how to ask and when
to make the request.
Our boys were led away like sheep
before their shearers, dumb ESQ to
speak) and when they return 1t will
DO time for them to open their
mouths and lot the world know that
we, with them have sense enough to
know that the colored people did not
drop from the sky Gas our fairer skin
brothers seem to think) but God Is
our Father and Jesus Christ our
Elder Brother and He Is a Wonder
full Counsellor with the true govern
mcnt upon His shoulders and II we
will but stop trying our own power
He will raise up friends for us. re-
gardless of any black or white man
who will betray this innocent and
despised race Of ours.
Mr.. J. c. Manning in his very very
broadminded speech has reached the
bottom step Of truth In his letter to
Tho Planet and If he were elected
would reach the first floor, I think.
He has said that neither life nor
property is secure to Il DISTINGUISHED
people. A people having no voice is
subject people.
The first floor, MI. Editor, is
people without flag Is n subject
people. The Afro American race
must forever remain a separate ele-
ment in this country until this ma
tional banner in some way represents
it and we may truthfully call 1t our
flag. The Afro-American has no
right Gas far as the laws Of this
country aro) that a white man Is
bound to respect and it is because
he has no flag, not that he has no
franchise (for some Of us have that)
The flag OF this country is not
painted rag, but whole nations
history. 1t is the constitution. It
is tho Government. 1t is the free
people that stand in tho Government
On the constitution. II Uncle Sans
black boys have fought we'll and he
is pleased with him as he says. II
men are brothers ard God is our
Father and Justice end right must
rule in this country. In the eyes of
the world it must be proven--for
God has His eyes upon tho righteous
and His cars arc open to their cry.
Yours for humanity,

County Council of Defense and City Officials Give
 Warning.

No more pool room licenses will be issued and those now operating will not be given new licenses when their present licenses expire on next May 31, according to a statement issued yesterday by the County Council of Defense. The council also urges the public to lay in it's winter supply of 1. coal now while it is available. The statement follows:
 Ut has been ordered by the County Council of Defense that the attention of the people be directed to the fact that the Government and the Local Fuel Administration, H. l. Holder ness has been calling on everyone to get their coal and wood in now while they can. This notice has appeared daily and in the moving picture thea tres. The last chance will soon arrive when you cannot get it when you will need it most. The warning better be needed while the opportunity lasts, because when winter arrives the Gov ernment will need and will use and take all the coal and other fuel need ed for transportation of troops over- seas. Fuel will be needed by the Gov ernment for transportation of troops in this country from cantonment to coast and from coast to coast. This will be the last warning given by the Fuel Administration and the county council of Defense
 "The Mayor and the City Council of this city in compliance with the wish es of the National Council of De- fense will be requested not to renew any pool room license in this city or to grant any new licenses when the present ones expire. Pool rooms are regarded as non-essentials, and dur ing war times since the work or fight order they have no existence as far as the prosecution of the war is concerned, and the Government is concerned now in only one thing win ming the war in the quickest time pos sible. To that end the National and State and County Councils of defense turnout the country will ask that no new licenses be issued to pool rooms and none be renewed because they are non-essentials.
