SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1918. AND THE WAR IS OVER! Now that fighting has ceased and war is practically at an end, the report comes that R. W. Tyler, colored war correspondent has arrived at the front. And again, Col. Charles Young has been assigned to Camp Grant, near Rockford, Ill., and is due there in a few days to take command of a "colored development battalion." It seems that the "gentlemen of the minimum" got what they asked for. Relative to Col. Young, the following order of the War Department is interesting reading: The first move to demobilize the army will be the discharge of development battalions in all camps in this country. The development units are composed of drafted men who did not meet physical requirements or who needed special drill or discipline to bring them into full military value. There are about 50,000 of these troops, and their honorable discharge will come as soon as they receive the physical examination required before a man is discharged. FOOD Administrator Hoover issued a statement under date of November 5, election day, saying that if recommendations of the Food Administrator are put into effect, every dish served in American hotels, clubs and other eating places on Thanksgiving Day, will be made from home-grown products. But the people of the country went him one better. On that day they voted not only for home-grown food but for home-made goods of all kinds. They voted to put back into power the party that stands for "Made-in-America." A few days before, Mr. Hoover issued a statement urging the re-election of a Democratic Congress—a Congress that stands for a free trade policy, opening our markets to the products of cheap labor in other lands. Mr. Hoover would have us eat from plates made in Germany, on table cloths made in Great Britain, with cutlery also made in Europe. He would have us wear clothes made in Japan, cover our floors with matting made in China, and buy our wool in Australia or South Africa. But for the purposes of Thanksgiving Proclamation By the President of the United States of America, a proclamation: T HAS LONG BEEN OUR CUSTOM to turn in the autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty God for His many blessings and mercies to us as a nation. This year we have special and moving cause to be grateful and to rejoice. God has in His good pleasure given us peace. It has not come as a mere cessation of arms, a mere relief from the strain and tragedy of war. It has come as a great triumph of right. Complete victory has brought us, not peace alone, but the confident promise of a new day as well, in which justice shall replace force and jealous intrigue among nations. Our gallant armies have participated in a triumph which is not marred or stained by another purpose of selfish aggression. In a righteous cause they have won immortal glory and have nobly served their nation in serving mankind. God has indeed been gracious. We have cause for such rejoicing as revives and strengthens in us all the best traditions of our national history. New day shines about us, in which our hearts take new courage and look forward with new hope to new and greater duties. While we render thanks for these things, let us not forget to seek the Divine guidance in the performance of those duties, and Divine mercy and forgiveness for all errors of act or purpose, and pray that in all that we do we shall strengthen the ties of friendship and mutual respect upon which we must assist to build the new structure of peace and good will among the nations. Wherefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Thursday, the twenty-eighth day of November next as a day of thanksgiving and prayer, and invite the people throughout the land to cease upon that day from their ordinary occupations and in their several homes and places of worship to render thanks to God, the ruler of nations. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done in the District of Columbia this sixteenth day of November in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Eighteen and of the Independence of the United States of America the One Hundred and Forty-third. WOODROW WILSON. By the President: Robert Lansing, Secretary of State. a Thanksgiving (?) Dinner he would have us eat food grown in America The statement issued by the people on November 5 was some improvement on the statement issued by Mr Hoover. EXTINCTION OF THE HYPHEN. EXTINCTION OF THE HYPHEN. A suggestion has been made in the Mail Bag which the Dispatch and Pioneer Press wish to extend to its limit and then unqualifiedly approve. It applies to the absolute abolishment of the hyphen, in its racial sense, henceforward and forever. If the war has done anything, it has made us all Americans, 100 per cent test. It has left the hyphen extinct. Hereafter there is, in our Americanism, no room for dilution or limitation. The new order of things includes all possible combinations of hyphenism and is not limited to the nationalities over which we have scored a victory in the name of liberty. It takes in friend and toe alike. A man can be no more an Anglo-American or a Franco-American than a German-American. In our patriotic lexicon there is no hyphen. When a man is born an American or becomes one of his free will through the process of law he is at the end and the summit. We amplify this suggestion by our Mail Bag friends and give it our cordial indorsement. The foregoing excerpt from the St. Paul Pioneer-Press has our hearty approval and we beg to add that the Afro ought to be taken out of the Afro-American and the Negro out of the Negro-American. The war for democracy has been fought and won, let us all now be just—AMERICANS. THE THRONE TOPPLES. It is a fairly safe guess that for a while officialdom at the National Capital will not be so self-assertive. This thing of directing the activities of the people in every little detail, and giving preemptory orders in matters of small consequence, with belated discoveries that mistakes had been made became intolerable. The people resented it at the polls, and they will resent it again when they get a chance in 1920. Autocracy in America has not been entirely overthrown but it is toppling to its fall. BISHOP WARNS AMERICA In a recent address in Chicago Bishop Charles D. Williams of Michigan warned against a Pan-Americanism as a substitute for Pan-Germanism. Among other things Bishop Williams said: "There are people in this country who would have us annex Mexico and substitute an American kaiser for William Hohencolller," he said. "This is a thing we must fight against. We are a long way behind England as a democracy. "The king does not figure in politics at all in England, and the powerful political party there is the Labor party, which is different from our organized labor in the United States. The British Labor party is made up not only of workers but the keenest GOD GIVE US MEN. God give us men! A time like this demands Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy; Men who possess opinions and a will; Men who have honor—men who will not lie; Men who can stand before a demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking! Tall men, sun crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking. —J. G. Holland. WOODROW WILSON thinking men in the literary world as well. We have no such organization here, but it must come in time, or we shall see a social revolution in this country." Bishop Williams went to France on behalf of the Red Cross and made a zig-zag journey through the country devastated by the Hun. CIVILIZATION NEEDED IN U. S. A. (Editorial by Arthur Brisbane in Hearst Papers.) The arrival of troops in an enlightened American city two days ago stopped the mob murder of a colored man who had not been convicted, and indiscriminate killing. One girl was killed leaning out of the window, a fireman was murdered while playing a stream of water on the mob. A construction foreman was fatally wounded, the fourth dead was an "unidentified negro," mentioned out of politeness. This incident, showing that we still require a little civilizing on this side of the ocean, may help to take the edge' off our national conceit. It is becoming a sharp edge. SHOULD KEEP INSURANCE Soldiers and sailors holding government insurance should keep up their policies after the war as a means of protecting their families and to give them the right to convert it into other forms to be provided by the government. The insurance may be continued for five years or converted within that time. If policies are allowed to lapse the right to take other forms of government insurance never can be regained. Policies with private companies will cost more and may be impossible to obtain on account of physical infirmities developed in the war, the secretary said. WHERE EXPRESSION WAS FREEL There were a lot of voters, who, on account of the power of bureaucracy, did not dare to say on the streets what they thought of the Democratic administration, but they said it in the secrecy of the voting booth. Free speech may be curtailed and a free press cowed, but as long as the ballots are honestly counted a republic is safe under the system of secret vot- TOO MUCH "VERBOTEN." If the Democratic administration had not been so zealous in prescribing rules which required the people of the country to get a permit every time they turned around, perhaps they might have been permitted another two years of full control. The people want public servants, not masters. EMERGENCIES OVER: The various Departments and Bureaus at Washington demanded and received immense appropriations to meet "war emergencies." Will they be just as prompt and as earnest in recommending that the appropriations make this demands true faith and ready hands; does not kill; cannot buy; d a will; who will not lie; demagogue atteries without winking! live above the fog thinking. 图 be cut off when the "Emergency" ceases to exist? NO SOCIALISM WANTED. The Democratic party has been rebuked at the polls but it will not reverse its socialistic tendencies as long as it has an opportunity to strengthen its power over industry. The people must tell their public servants what they think of government ownership WHAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE DONE. When the Democrats came into power in 1913, several colored men were holding high offices at Washington, including an Assistant Attorney General, a Register of the Treasury and an Auditor for the Navy, all appointed by a Republican president. The Assistant Attorney General was asked to resign a few days after March 4; the Register of the Treasury remained in office for about two months before he was called on to walk the plank and the Auditor for the Navy was permitted to draw his salary about three months before he was separated from the pay roll. These men were regularly appointed by Republican Presidents and confirmed by the Senate. Their duties were the same as those performed by their respective predecessors and were in no way segregated or confined wholly to the colored people. Many colored clerks and employees have lost their places since 1913 and according to the Washington papers and persons who live in the city and are well informed, scores of colored persons who have passed the required examinations and have been certified by the Civil Service Commission, have been refused appointments. A colored judge of the municipal court of the District of Columbia has been allowed to retain his office, which is a local one. A few new places have been given out, but nothing to compare with the places lost and in the majority of cases are strictly along segregated That is what the Democrats have done. --- NOT ON YOUR LIFE! One of the latest popular songs in the Democratic South, has the title: "In 1960 You'll Find Dixie Looking Just the Same," and this is part of the chorus: "You'll find the colored aunties, In their shanties, Singing sweet and low; In the land of Old Black Joe." But things do change even in the "land of Old Black Joe." In 1860, millions were in what then seemed to be a hopeless bondage, but 1863 found them free. Then came the infamous "Black Code" which legally sought to re-enact slavery, but these unjust laws passed away and the colored man was marching on to Americanism. His progress was so rapid that the South became alarmed and instituted the scheme of elimination by lynching. Then came the subtitle plan of segregation championed by Henry W. Grady. When Grady died, a yellow man who called himself black, took up the Grady plan and passed it on to Caucausian America as something original. He was willing to have millions of Americans treated as parlahs if he could gain the title of "great negro." The vicious Grady plan has been PLAN FOR ORGANIZING COLORED DEMOCRATES A National Colored Equal Rights Reporter Elect Race Petitioners to be SENIOR for Colored Americans in the Adopted at 11th Annual Meeting of Natl Sept. 19, 1918, and Offered to the Time having come in the disp through a totable world war of blood democracy has become the slogan and two hemispheres, and Colored Americ discriminations of the most drastic Rights and even the right to life itecome to Colored America to exhaust the end of the undemocratic condition in the country which is the moral leaNations.

A National Colored Equal Rights Representative Congress at Washington to Elect Race Petitioners to be Sent to Intercede for Full Democracy for Colored Americans in the World Peace Adjustment. Adopted at 11th Annual Meeting of National Equal Rights League in Chicago. Sept. 19. 1918. and Offered to the Colored American People. The time having come in the dispensation of Almighty God when by and through a terrible world war of blood and devastation the doctrine of world democracy has become the slogan and avowed policy of Allied Nations in two hemispheres, and Colored Americans being still the victims of caste discriminations of the most drastic kind with regard to civil and political rights and even the right to life itself, an historic and imperative call has come to Colored America to exhaust its peaceable means to bring to pass the end of the undemocratic condition in which they alone, of all citizens, live in the country which is the moral leader and military savior of the Allied Nations. Hence the National Equal Rights League to carry out the vote of this body to have the cause for the enjoyment of full democracy by Colored Americans presented at the world peace negotiations and that such representatives may be the chosen delegates of Colored America, shall call a National Equal Rights Representative Congress at the National Capitol on or after January 1st, 1918, to elect such peace petitioners for this, the only group denied democracy in the U. S. A. Delegates to this Representative Congress shall be elected on the 'following basis: Every Colored community is hereby invited and authorized to send delegates through the organization of Equal Rights Leagues. Every such league already or hereafter organized shall be entitled to send one delegate to this representative assembly and an additional delegate for each 50 members over the first 50. Every local religious, labor, civic, fraternal organization of the race may on request to the corresponding secretary of the league become officially an affiliated member and send delegates to this assembly, one for every 50 members. Every national organization for the rights of Colored Americans shall be entitled and invited to send two delegates-at-large, each such delegate to be entitled to one vote. The executive officers of this league, the president, secretary, treasurer, chairman of executive committee of the District of Columbia branch and the National Executive Committee shall issue the call and make the arrangements for this representative assembly. The registration fee for delegates shall be one dollar. This representative assembly shall elect the race petitioners for the errand to the seat of the peace negotiations for full democracy for Colored Americans. N.

The present war will revolutionize the world. America will give freedom to Europe and when the colored troops return after their triumphal entry into Berlin, things will begin to change in this country. And things will change in Dixie! Forty years from now, the great mass and mess of cringing jimcrow leaders will be dead and gone to their punishment—and the fires of hell are what they deserve. In their places will arise a new leadership of strong men, untainted by slavery, unpurchasable and unafraid. They will demand absolute civil equality with all other Americans and they will have the backbone, the money and the political power to enforce their demands. Segregation in all its forms, discriminating laws, political injustice and social degradation will vanish even in the South. No! In 1960 you'll NOT, "find Dixie looking just the same." THE GERALDINE L. TROTTER MEMORIAL FUND. A movement is on foot in Boston to raise a fund of $3,000 as a memorial to fittingly commemorate the great career of Mrs. Geraldine L. Trotter and at the same time to aid The Guardian. Mrs. Trotter died that The Guardian might live. THE APPEAL has subscribed $5.00 to the fund and a check for that amount has been mailed, and we trust that every person who appreciates Mrs. Trotter's sacrifice and the service of that fearless, unafraid and uncompromising journal, The Boston Guardian, will assist in raising the money, which will be handled by a committee of one hundred prominent Boston citizens. The colored people of the United States owe a debt to the Trotters, which all of the gold of the earth would not wipe out. They were the leaders in the fight for justice. Surrounded on every side by cringing sycophants who were willing to sell the rights of the people for a mess of pottage, they stood almost alone and refused to surrender one jot or title of what they knew to be their rights as Americans. There ought to be no trouble to raise $3,000. At least $5,000 should be raised. Any amount will be received. If you can not give $5.00, give $1.00, or even less, if that is not possible. The important point is to give something and give it NOW. Subscriptions may be sent at once to Mr. Edgar P. Benjamin, 34 School Street, Boston, Massachusetts. SEND YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AND DO IT NOW! FOR JUSTICE WITHIN. In a recent address at Washington Bishop Charles Gore of Oxford, England, said: "It is necessary that we crush Germany, but it is also necessary that the allies convince the workers that they are fighting not only for the overthrow of their foes from without but are as well fighting for liberty and justice to all classes, creeds, and colors within. If with the overthrow of Germany this is not accomplished the war will only have been partially won. This is the thought I am trying to get into the minds of all the PRESENTATIVE Congress at Washington to put to Interdece for Full Democracy the World Peace Adjustment.

"We must have it thoroughly understood that militarism is but a necessity of the moment and in no sense a permanent institution. Democracy under a military system is an impossibility." CONTEMPTIBLE DOINGS: The segregation policy of the Democratic party is one of the most contemptible petty tyrannies and exists in no other country in the world. Its purpose is to humiliate and put in an inferior position the colored people of the country. The Washington policy is comparable with the mob murders of the South for it is really a lynching of the finer feelings of humanity. The separation in the lavatories of the various departments and in the Senate galleries is an outrageous thing and absolutely uncalled for. COLORED MEN ELECTED. Three colored men, H. J. Capehart of McDowell county; J. V. Coleman of Fayette county and T. G. Nutter of Kanawha county, were elected to the West Virginia legislature last week. Colored voters are not in the majority in any of the counties they represent, the percentage in McDowell being 34. --- The government is still calling for typists but when colored women pass the examination, are certified by the Civil Service Commission and proceed to Washington some little bureau head refused to accept them. --- One of the great benefits of the end of the war will be the abolition of a number of war work "negro sections," which served largely as breeding places for racial discrimination and further plans for degradation. The end of the war and the death of autocracy in Germany was celebrated in the "Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave," at Sheffield, Ala., by the lynching of a colored man charged with resisting an officer. ASK PRESIDENT TO END LYNCHING. Pleda for a Fair Deal in Army, Navy, and Civil Life. Boston. Mass., Nov. 18, 1918:—President Wilson has been appealed to by Boston citizens to ask Congress for an anti-lynching law and for measures to end discrimination against colored people in the army, navy and civil life. Resolutions adopted at a meeting last night in Tremont Temple were today sent to Washington. The meeting was a service commemorative of the life of the late Mrs. Geraldine Louise Trotter. The resolutions call for a commission with adequate powers and composed in part of colored men to investigate and report. The President is asked to make the matter the subject of a special message to Congress. The resolutions were signed by the Rev. Matter, Shaw, president, and William Reed, secretary of the committee in charge of the Geraldine Louise Trotter memorial subscriptions to which were received at the meeting, and approximately $1000 has been paid in toward the memorial fund of $3,000.

Fred V. S. Chamberlain a little over a week before the signing of the armistice. All of these troops are ordered here from Hoboken, but the same orders carried the information that troops of the central west now on duty in France would in all probability be mustered out here. Proceedings before the senate elections committee contesting the election of Truman H. Newberry (rep.) as senator from Michigan were ordered dismissed by the committee on a vote of six to five. Senator Kellogg of Minnesota voted in the affirmative. Eighty years ago it took a special combination of stage coach, railway and steamboat to carry the mail between New York and Washington, a distance of 250 miles, in 36 hours. Now it is an everyday occurrence to cover the route in three Hours. This shows the rapid rate of progress that has been made in the matter of rapid transportation. And the limit is not yet reached. Last Wednesday mail was carried by a airplane from New York to Philadelphia in one and one-half hours. Two colored men, S. B. Turner and A. H. Roberts, were elected to the Illinois legislature from Chicago in the recent election. Reforms Needed at Home. (From The Christian Register.) Race bitterness makes argument, or discussion, or any effort to come to a common understanding quite useless. Where much racefeeling is engaged, reason is neutralized. With some people, questions of the rights of colored people under the Constitution, of the people of California have become imminent; they simply can not discuss the subject. In this country, we have enough do in cleansing our own blood of germs of conflict without thinking it our main business to reach across the water in restraint of war. War is incipient among us in these matters, and cruel barbarities frequent enough, to keep us busy reforming ourselves. Billy Sunday speaks out emphatically, acrobatically and ungrammatically that almost every wrong in the country—brave prejudice. If brave man, not afraid, does anything, and do some good where it is he wants to show that he is a real most needed, let him speak out against race prejudice. Must Judge A Group by Its Res No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relations with large numbers of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that they knew the colored people better than the first. They know aspirations among them, that the others do not know, or knowing enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the best of the race which others are obliquous of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously canvise with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to know to those on whom they charge importance to the colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the clearest aims. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. be when we should wards out of men. is climbed on pro- been raised against and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. must speak and right the wrongs of VEBK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS.

To the Editor of The Journal: A few days ago a letter from some man in the state of Washington in this column suggested that the United States should take over German colonial possessions in Africa and thither transport the 10,000,000 or 12,000,000 persons of African descent who constitute a part of the great American public—more than 10 per cent of its citizenship—this, of course, without the knowledge of the people most vitally interested, or any consideration of their physical welfare, health and happiness. Is it not tragic to contemplate that, when the roar of cannon upon the European battlefields has hardly ceased, and our armies have proclaimed victory of democracy over autocracy, rule of the people against the rule of the class, triumph of Christian justice over brute force (America striking the deciding blow), the question should now, be raised as to the right of any element of the American people to live here and enjoy the blessings of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? The Negro has been as long here practically as the white man, and has given to this country billed for unequilted toll, and now has cheerfully bared his breast and shed his blood in defense of our country. When the record is made it will be found that no class of men have proved braver than the colored soldier. Editorially you speak of the south and its disproportionate representation in congress, and admit that the colored people of the south have no representation in congress, no voice in making the laws of the state in which they live, or the selection of those who are to make, interpret and enforce them. Underlying the great world struggle just ended is the discontent of people oppressed and socially enslaved. This state of things has bred trouble for every nation that fostered it since first time began. As men become enlightened the become conscious of injury, and their bonds are broken amid blondhed and disorder.
