SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1918.
PORTO RICANS WANT SELF-RULE.
A memorial to President Wilson asking complete self-government for Porto Rico is in the Porto Rican House of Representatives and is being discussed. It says in part:
"Porto Rican soldiers cheerfully and bravely left their homes to fight for democracy. Our culture, our civilization and the pride of our glorious race oblige us to decline to accept as legitimate a government that does not spring from our own will."
The great trouble seems to be the color-line which has been forced on the Porto Ricans by the U. S. Government. When Porto Rico was a Spanish colony there was no line based on color. With American domination came the Southern officials who did not fail to bring along their hobby of color discrimination and they have been working over time on it ever since.
ISN'T IT AMUSING?
The Alabama' Methodist Conference at Mobile, Alabama, has called on President Wilson to summon an international conference to investigate the condition of the Jews in the nations of Europe and to take steps to stop age long persecution.
Right there at home in Alabama pogroms are in evidence at almost any time. Hundreds of innocent colored men have been tortured, burned at the stake or mob murdered in some other way, but the hypocritical Methodists have not been able to see those atrocities, or having seen them, history does not record that they have ever made protests.
Raising their eyes high above the outrages committed by alleged Christians on real Christians in Alabama, the psalm singers have the nerve to look 4,000 miles across the sea and protest against persecutions in other lands. The Southern Caucasian Christian is a queer bird.
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
Asks Editor of THE APPEAL in an Appeal Wired to President Wilson on the Eve of His Departure for Peace Table.
Calls Color Line Greater Menace to Permanent World Peace Than Hun Militarism Just Overthrown.
Asks President to Aid the Oppressed of All Nations, Races, Colors, Creeds and Sex in Realizing Liberty, Fraternity and Equality.
Saint Paul, Minn., Dec. 2, 1918:
To the President,
White House,
Washington, D. C.
Sir:
Now that the world war is over and military autocracy has been doomed,
I appeal to you as the representative of the United States at the Peace Table, to demand the abolition of that greater menace to the peace of the world, THE AUTOCRACY OF COLOR.
Through the centuries the colored races of the globe have been subjected to the most unjust and inhuman treatment by the so-called white peoples. Every atrocity which the Huns have inflicted on the helpless white peoples of the world during the four years of war now ending, has been suffered by the colored peoples of the world for more than four hundred years.
In the recent war the colored races have furnished as many men as the white races have supplied, if the labor and fighting units are both counted, and now that victory has been won, it is but just that the color line which has hampered the progress of the colored peoples, should be abolished at once. Not only that, but the oppressed of the white race should be delivered from oppression.
Mr. President, I shall endeavor to outline a program which should meet the approval of every believer in world democracy:
1. Home rule for Ireland.
2. Home rule for India.
3. Home rule for all colonies which desire it.
4. Self-determination for the people of all countries, in which the people are practically all of one race or nationality and yet dominated and oppressed by a few of a different race or nationality.
5. The former German colonies to become republics under the protection of the League of Nations. These people are as capable of self-government as the people of Russia, Germany, Turkey, or the Balkan States.
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.
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

PEACE CONGRESS DEC.16
PLAN FOR ORGANIZING COLORED AMERICANS TO SEEK WORLD DEMOCRACY.
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 the end of the unnatural 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 Rights League to carry out the vote of this body to have the cause for the enjoyment of democracy by Colored Americans presented at the world peace negotiations and representatives may be the chosen delegates of Colored America, shall call the National Equal Rights Representative Congress at the National Capitol on December 16, 17, 18, 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 member over the first 50. Every local religious, labor, civic, fraternal organization of the nation 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.

6. The abrogation of the "White Australia" legislation and the acknowledgment of the right of all peoples to acquire citizenship.
7. The repeal by the United States of all anti-oriental immigration laws and the acknowledgment of the right of Japanese and Chinese and Malays to become citizens.
8. The repeal of all United States laws classing certain Indians as non-citizens, all people of American Indian blood to be immediately recognized as American citizens.
9. The repeal of all laws of the United States, or of any state, in which the words colored, African, Ace-American, Negro, Mulatto, Indian, Japanese or Chinese are used for the purpose of making discriminations against the people of any race, nationality, class or creed, and the immediate abrogation of any color line restrictions enforced without warrant of law.
10. The nations comprising the League of Nations to be forbidden to enact any legislation which in any way discriminates against the people of the Caucasian, Mongolian, African, Indian, and Malay races, or against any nationality, religious creed or sex.
11. The free immigration of the people of any one country to any other country having membership in the League to be neither denied nor abridged on account of race, nationality, class, color, creed, or sex.
The adoption of the foregoing rules in the Constitution of the League of Nations would not only mean freedom, equality and democracy for all mankind but would be an actual earthly realization of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man.
Trusting Mr. President, that you will as the representative of our great republic, advocate the principles I have enumerated, I am.
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 foe 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.

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 peremptory 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 topping to its fall.
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 Hohenzollern," 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-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.

THIS SPACE CONTRIBUTED BY
in bringing the war to a victorious end, and these men must be fed and clothed for a long while to come. It is estimated by the War Department that the cost of equipping and maintaining an American soldier in Europe is $423.27 a year. The American army was transported to France at the rate of 250,000 men a month by giving them first call on the shipping facilities of the United States. If they could be brought back to their homes thus speedily—and it is doubtful that they could—it would require at least eight months. It is obvious, therefore, that we must continue to raise money with which to maintain our army abroad. "We are going to have to finance peace for a while," said Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, "just as we have had to finance war."
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.
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
Defective Page
BISHOP WARNS AMERICA
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.
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.
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; Oh! the time may come And the time may go, But nothing changes, 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 subtle 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 pariahs if he could gain the title of "great negro."
The vicious Grady plan has been very generally adopted and today 12,000,000 patriotic Americans are denied civil rights which the other 90,000,000 of Americans enjoy, largely
WARNING!
FIGHTING has ceased, but our war work is not done until peace is permanently established, the war bills have been paid, our army is brought back home and demobilized and industry readjusted to normal conditions. Hungry nations must be fed and shell-torn cities rebuilt, and the United States must lend the money to do it.
B v War Savings Stamps
To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of men.—Elle Wheeler Wilcox.
as the result of the "separation" espoused by a few so-called "great negroes" and a lot of little lickspittle leaders.
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 tittle 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.

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 Bureauats 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 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.
American Red Cross Presents Twelve-Star Service Pin to Colored Minister.
+
The Rev. R. H. Windsor of Rayville, La, and the Twelve-Star Service Pin Presented to Him by the American Red Cross.
Having the right to and needing a twelve-star service pin, the Rev. R. H. Windsor of Rayville, La., a zealous Red Cross worker, has been presented with a unique decoration by the American Red Cross. The father of nineteen sons, twelve of whom are with the colors, this genial colored minister of the Baptist church probably holds the record for sons in the military service of the United States. If there are any others with similar or better status, they are yet to be heard from.
In the accompanying illustration of the twelve-star pin, topped with the Red Cross insignia, it will be noted that the first bar bears five stars. These represent five individual sons—Bennie, Robbin, Jeff, Johnnie and Archie. The next bar bears two stars, representing twins, George and Lafayette; the next bar is similarly decorated, representing William and James, also twins; and the bottom bar, with its three stars, represents the triplets, Matthew Mark and Luke. Eight of the boys are volunteers, and the other four were called in the draft. Upon hearing of the remarkable record of the Windsor family, President Wilson, who is also president of the American Red Cross, wrote to the Rev. Mr. Windsor as follows:
"I am writing to say with what interest and admiration I have learned of the fact that twelve of your sons are in the service of our country, and the thirteenth impatiently waiting to follow them in. This is a splendid record, and I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. The colored troops have proved themselves fine soldiers."
CONTEMPTIBLE DOING
The segregation policy in the Democratic party is one of the most contemptible petty tyrannies an exists in no other country in the world. Its purpose is to humiliate put in an inferior position the worst people of the country.
The Washington policy is variable with the mob murders the South for it is really a lynch the finer feelings of humanity. T separation in the lavatorie of curious departments and in the muse galleries is an outrage to and absolutely uncalled for.

DR. O. D. HOWARD.
Celebrates His Birth Month in a
Unique Manner.
In a conversation with Dr. 0. D.
Howard last. week, he called the at-
tention of THE APPEAL MAN to a
few of the noteworthy events that had
occurred at different periods in the
month of November. For instance the
Pilgrim Fathers and the Mayflower
‘reached Cape Cod, Nov. 11, 1620, and
landed at Jamestown, the last Thurs-
‘day in November. By a singular coin-
cidence the armistice of the recent
world war was signed on Nov. 11th
‘ultimo. ‘Then getting nearer home he
‘referred to the big peace jubilees and
‘the greatest of parades and celebra-
tions in St. Paul on last Thanksgivin
day. Then getting still nearer home,
he referred to the fact that he was
born on November 5th, a few years
ago, and, he stated that he had for
years made it a rule to do something
‘worth while in each month of Novem-
ber, and in keeping with that custom
on November 13, last, he satisfied a
mortgage on a valuable piece of prop:
erty; and on November 29th he pre-
sented to his son-inlaw, Mr. S. L. Max
well, a half interest in the business
and fixtures of his elegant five-chair
barber shop in the Angus Hotel on
Selby avenue.
