CLEMENSEAU---THE VICTOR

French deputies who protested
against the act, proclaimed that the
representatives Of the nation had no
right to surrender any portion of It's
territories or Of its citizens, and now
after almost half q century, as the
civil chief Of his nation he has made
good his protest.
Looking back over the little more
than year that Clemenceau has been
the civil executive Of France. the
Prime Minister, II is possible to
measure this achievement. He came
to once when the army had failed
at the Aisne and for the first and
only time was shaken in its morale.
He came TO power when . monstrous
defeatist campaign had tegrn to
march over France. He came to
control when the reins Of govern
ment mad slipped from impotent
hands and first . break on
the home front and then on the fir
ing line was forecast on all sides.

G. Powell is President of the organi
cation while Editor w. Monroe Trot-
ter was the active promoter Of this
great movement for the benefit of the
colorod people Of the country. A d.
rect appeal was made to the Congress
where the appeal should have been
made. All of the ills from which we
have suffered and are now suffering
were stated with unqualified frank
.uess and these earnest devotces of
our race were accorded a respectful
hearing.
We are informed that some of the
members of the Conference said some
things that had best been left unsaid
Some OF them arc alleged to have
showed disposition TO attack other
members Of the race, thus indicating
there was lack of harmony among
The colored leaders themselves. AS
as WAS not encouchcd in resolutions
The body rs such is not responsible
Tor it. Some way and somehow, these
appeals will have their effect and the
sense Of fair play in the American
people will assert itself through their
representatives in the Congress.

of America, and representatives Of
other activities, wish to affirm first
of all, our unalterable belief that the
defeat Of the German government and
what it today represents Is Of para

the world in general and to our peo-

I'VE deem it hardly necessary in view
of the nntarnished record Of Negro
Americans to reanirm our loyalty IT,
our country and our readiness to
make every sacrifice to win this war.

guides of public opinion among our
people, to use our every endeavor to

vention Of other people from dealing

were assigned to the task of "run--
ming down the bootleggcrs" and in
many instances are alleged to have
not only sampled his wares but set up
a whiskey business for themselves.
AS we understand it, the Richmond
Virginian is authorized to speak for
the Prohibition interests Of Virginia
but no where have we noted that ii
has had any claim or authority to
speak for the colored people of this
State or these United States. But this
is exactly what the Virginfan has es
sayed to do in it's issue of July 3rd.
1918 under the caption Of "a Griey-
.ancc without Remedy" 1t says:
a conference OF cOlorcd newspaper
editors was held some days ago in
Washing on. d. c., which adopted.
among other things in their resolu-
lions. the following:
1--WE are not unmindful of the re-
cognition Of our American citizenship
in the draft Of the appointment Of
colored officers Of the designation Of
colored advisors to the government
departments and to other indications
of a broadened public opinion; never
theless we believe today that justifi-
able grievances, of the colored people
are not producing disloyalty but an
amount OF unrest and bitterness which
'even the best efforts of their leaders
may not be able always to guide, un
less they can have the active and sym
pathetic cooperation Of the national
and state governments. German pro.
paganda among us is powerless, but
the apparent Indifference OF our gov
ternment is dangerous.
Those who know the Negro are fully
familiar with the fact that the only
unrest and bitterness" that arises
from any source among the colored
people is nurtured and aroused by
these very so-called leaders" and as
IA matter Of fact the only semblence of
unrest and bitterness today South of
the Potomac lies entirely in the breast
Of the self-styled leaders"
Tho question that arises is what
constitutes leadership? Were tho col

SERVICE FLAG AT THE FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH, SOUTHSIIpE.

A great meeting was held at First
Baptist Church, South Richmond, Or.
A. Binga, Jr., pastor, Sunday night,
juno 80. The occasion was the pre-
sentation Of service flag to the
Church in honor Of the boys in tho
Army from the Church and Sunday
School. suitale program was
rendered as follows:
Devotional exercises were con-
Quoted by Brethren G. p. Randolph
and Wexford Finney. A selection
was rendered in a choice manner by
Miss Rebecca Goode. Brother G.. II.
Munford in we'll chosen words pre-
scented the speaker OF the evening,
Mr. Roscoe G. Mitchell. Just before
Mr.. Mitchell began speaking, the Or
chestra Of the First Baptist Sunday
School, which furnished music for
the occasion played, "The Star Span
gled Banner" during which time
everybody respectfully stood. Amid
the strains Of the music the flag was
unfurled by Mesdames. Geneva w.
Langon and Mary Threat.
Mr.. Mitchell then made the speech
of his life telling his attentive hearers
about the achievements in war times
Of the peoples Of tho world in their
struggles for freedom during the
fourteenth and twentieth centuries.
He also spoke In high terms Of the
sixteen men who had gone out from
this Church and Sunday School to
render service for their country. His
address will not soon be forgotten.
The flag was received by our hon
ored pastor, DR.. A. Ringa, Jr. Need
less to say that his remarks were
instructive, constructive and inspir-
ing. The collection was taken by
