FALSE DOCTRINE

1t Is remarkable how this false doc
trine has taken hold Of so many peoplo
or the North who have not had thei:
first lesson in southern trickery. In
many places white people don't want
colored people to live on nice streets
perfectly willing to send missionaries
to Africa or build up schools in the
black belt but no charity at home so
far as their immediate community ia
concerned. And Southern members
or Congress have used the cry Of social
equality as mighty weapon in Con.
gress against our sacred rights and
year after year we see northern mem.
Ders become passive when southerners
are lying On us faster than q mule can
kick.
We help to send them there but thew
will not defend us.
In our own State foreigners and red.
headed halfbakes feel privileged to in
suit us in public places, many Of whom
refused to defend the Government in
battle but insult those who did defend
IT. My friends the ballot must be our
weapon In Connecticut, as well as in
the general government. Every two
years we make trip TO the CAPITOL to
ask for Civil Rights bill to be turned
down: we come bnck and wait another
