les not single Negro has been sent by this nation
to serve in the capacity of even minor consul The
same situation is true of Haiti and San Domingo to

Even if the State Department could not find it
possible to appoint Negro consuls to these and other
SCUM american republics thing utterly incon-

would seem that capable Negro leaders Of this
try could be dispatched there to cement better later
American relations.
This move would certainly be in, harmony with

that all of those sent have been white and not a
too careful examination of racial feeling Of these
men has been made before they were chosen. AS
consequence n'anv have done more to foster deep

Written before the character Of
the war had changed and before
Americas national existence was
placed in such dire peril, the book
does not touch upon the stake of
the Negroes in the battle to crush

gains that the Negro people have
made in America in danger, but the
right to continue the fight against
the terrible evils which Wright 50

America would be stronger to-

citizens were freed from the can

life, is now available to the pub

the basis for more intelligent
