press for a hearing at the San Fran

Inspired by the successes won at

in July, 1910, the council confidently
outlined seven-point program for
presentation by the delegates for

Representation was called for by

Pointing to the fact that the colo

in the Americas, the council made
the heart of its seven-point pro-

the unalienable rights of the Carib-
