Lincoln battled his doubts to

project with an apology and a
prayer, aware of his RESPONSE

Yes, Sc per cent did. The other

But in the past four decades
the nation has WEIGHED on Lin
coin; instead Of preserving his
gains vnd making democracy
by hatred and subterfuge,
real TO colored freedman, it has,
sought to undo his work as we
have indicated above.
Today the time is ripe for a
new emancipation. How will it
come? By the hand of the strong
man in the White House who
sits in Lincoln's chair.
His platform, like I.incoln's
is to save the union from its
enemies.
He has found us a people
half free and half slave. He is
experiencing the defeats Of war,
and there is every sign that the
revcrses will continues and grow
worse,
He will try everything and
likely fail, as did Lincoln, and
then one day there will come
clear conviction of duty.
The New Proclamation
He will proclaim the new So
cial revolution. He will decree
that our democracy and our
freedom are of more value than
caste.
He will order that the lines of
color and religion bye erased in
order that the full strength OF
the colored people and other
minorities may be put into the
war effort.
America will win with Roose-
welt as she did with Lincoln, be
cause America will then be on
the side of God and humanity.
