(From the Cincinnati Union

There are more ways of killing a
dog than hanging him." Our Demo-
cratic administration, so anxious to
make the world safe for democracy,
has shown sublime disregard for the
rights and safety of colored American
citizens at home. It now seems to
feel that, by refusing passports to
representatives Of those who complain
of intolerable conditions here, that
Europe will not know of the foul
canker that gnaws the very vitals of
our government! IT'S another case
Of the ostrich sticking it head in the

NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN

William J. Bryan positively asserts
that the idea in the League of Nations
of "deliberation before war; is taken
from the 80 treaties negotiated by the
United States with three-quarters of
the world. These treaties were writ
ten while Mr.. Bryan was Secretary
of State. So the idea is not, as some
would have us understand, original
with Mr.. Wilson. However, if this
nation should ever again undertake
the deliberation which characterized
our "watchfully waiting" Administra.

would be overwhelmed before the plan
of defense had been mapped out.

The Department of Labor's indus
trial junketeefs, who sailed in Janu-
airy to study labor conditions abroad,
and possibly to catch few crumbs
from royal tables, have returned. Like

enforce a worldwide marine wage.

their objections to the Zionist demand
for Jewish state in Palestine.
The petition was handed to the
President by Congressman Kahn on
February S. There were 9S8 names
on the petition representing the rich
est and most prominent Hebrews in
the country.
The objections to the establishment
of a Jewish Homeland in Palestine'
are set forth under four specific heed
ings, the chief one of which is that
1.-The Jews are dedicated heart and
soul to the countries in which they
dwell under free conditions"
"All Jews" the petition states, ire
pudiate every suspicion of a double
allegiance, but to our minds it is nec-
essarily implied in and cannot by any
logic be; eliminated from the estab-
olishment Of a sovereign state for the
Jews"
The petition also states that "by the
large part taken by them in the great
war. the Jews have once and for all
shattered the base aspersions of the
anti-Semites, who charged them with
being aliens in every land, incapable
Of true patriotism, and prompted only
by sinister and self-seeking motives"
It says that those who would seek
the establishment of a Jewish sover-
eign state and yet insist on their
patriotic attachment to the countries
of which they are citizens, are self

Nv Y?

When delegates elected by colored
Americans in convention assembled
to 60 to France and appeal to the
Peace Conference for the abolition of
the color line, applied to the State
Department for passports, they were
refused.
BUT, when Irish-Americans asked
for passports for four of their repre-
sentatives to go to France and work
among the delegates to the Peace
Conference for FREE IRELAND,
which really means interfering with
the internal affairs of Great Britain,
the passports were granted without
a quihble.
If it is right for Irish-Americans
to go to the Peace Conference, why
were Colored-Americans denied the
right?
