NOTED ORATOR SAYS
THE NEGRO SHOULD NOT
REMAIN AN UNDERLYING
(By Associated Negro Press)

Wy <AooOSAolCd 4NCSAO AOcOJ
BELOIT, Wis, July 8.-Painting a
vivid word-picture of the Grounds Of
the Negro's Hope" DR.. P. O'Connell
noted preacher, held spell-bound a per-
spring audience in Beloit College
chapel.
Between every perspiration drop
there was a laugh and between every
laugh sudden rapt attention to the
speakers forceful praise of the prog
ress his race has made.
"Of all the soldiers who answered
the call to have democracy" DR..
O'Connell declared, "the Negroes
stand at the top" The Negro stands
at least among the chief of those who
went to the rescue of civilization.
They were heroes, their every death
dealing instrument known to man was
in their midst Now you and must
be heroes here.
"The Negro Race, which has suf-
fered more than any race, is distin-
guished by an invincible hope. This
hope is not dream of sensual things
but a desire for all the privileges OF
doing and being all that becomes a
man. II is the hope for freedom tC
earn living, freedom to vote, free
dom to be treated civilly as a man
freedom to unite with fellow citizens
i'll building up his community, freedom
to make the supreme sacrifice for the
good of mankind and the freedom t.
glorify God.
"The Negroes hope springs first out
of his natural constitution which he
brought from sunny Africa; second
from consciousness of power; third
from what the white man has done
for him; and, fourth, in the providenc:
of God, who doesn't mean that the
Negro should be an underling all oi
his life"

ure aimed to stop lynching, which
tends to increase, has been introduced
in Congress by Representative Dallin-
ger of Massachusetts. By the terms

guilty of murder, subject to prosecu
tion, and, if convicted, subject to pun
ishment under the laws of the state in
which the lynching occurs. More than
that, the state will be subject to the
forfeiture of $4,000 to $4,000 for the
use of the dependents of the person
lynched.
Officers of the state who fail to
prevent lynching and prosecuting of
ficers who fail to prosecute for the
offense all persons participating in a
lynching mob will be deemed guilty
OF an offense against the United
