ETERNAL VIGILANCE. The meeting of the Colored Liberty Congress at Washington, D. C., next week brings to mind the old adage, “Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty.” Many people seem to have forgotten this old and trite saying. ‘The colored people who are not only surrounded by enemies who are try- ing to undo them and filch from them their rights as Americans, should re- member that there is a far more sini- ster and unprineipled foe within, It is the foe within which is more dangerous than the foe without, whose moves are usually open and above board. On the contrary the foe within is a rank coward, a lickspittle and a sneak, and often spreads his poison when no one of the race is near. A large number of the “negroes” as they almost invariably call them- selves, who solicit money for segre- gated schools and other institutions are traitors of the deepest dye. Ad- mitted, grinning, to the private office of some white philanthropist, in order to reach his pocket-book, they belittle the colored people and tell him that the race favors segregation. For every dollar they collect a thousand dollars’ worth of harm is done. It is well for colored men and ‘women to meet publicly often and pro- test against the many wrongs they are forced to endure, and give the lie to the vermin who do so much to in- jure the race. And while watching the enemy with- out and protesting against discrimt- nations, keep an eye on the enemy within and denounce his nefarious work. Remember, “Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty.” QUEER WORLD THIS. After more than a hundred years of dismemberment, during which time the Poles have been subjected to op: pression in its varied forms by Ger many, Austria and Russia, the people are to be reunited as a free Polish na ton and their independence has been recognized by the allies. a After all they have suffered for more than a century is it not strange to note that they celebrated their new found freedom with a great pogrom END AUTOCRACY OF COLOR Asks Editor of THE APPEAL in an Appeal President Wilson on the Eve of E 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, [ 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 treat- ment 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 whieh has hampered the progress of the col- ored peoples, should be abolished at once. Not ‘only that, but the op: pressed 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 desiro it. 4. Self-determination for the peopk of all countries, in which the peopl are practically all of one race or na tionality and yet dominated and op pressed by a few of a different race 01 nationality. 5. The former German colonies t become republics under the protectior of the League of Nations. These peo ple are as capable of self-government as the people of Russia, Germany, Tur key, or the Balkan States, ‘or massacre of the Jews when they captured Lembery. ‘The Associated Press correspondent sent the following in reference to the brutal massacre: “tmmediately upon entering the city the Poles proceeded to sack and burn the Ghetto district, whose vic. tims numbered several thousand. The streets were filled with the charred bodies of murdered Jews, many ot whom, in the frenzy of despair, had leaped from the burning buildings, which were surrounded by Polish troops.” ARE MEN PURER MINDED THAN WOMEN? Women of America are slacking on the job of motherhood, in the opinion of Prof. Roswell H. Johnson of the University of Pittsburgh, who spoke on the subject of “Adequate Produc: tion” at the ninth annual conference of the American Association for Study and Prevention of Infant Mortality, at Chicago. ‘The married woman who does not have more than three children is, ex- cept in a few cases, pulling back on the wheels of progress. We have talked tauch of the nobility of women —— CONGRESS DEC. 16 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 @ 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 every 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 repre- sentatives may be the chosen delegates of Colored America, shall call a Na- tional Equal Rights Representative Congress at the National Capitol on De- cember 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 follow- ing 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 mem- bers over the first 50. Every local religious, labor, civic, fraternal organiza- tion of the mace 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 delegatesatiarge, 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 arrange- ments 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 abrogation of the “White Australia” legislation and the ac \mowledgment of the right of all peo: ples to acquire citizenship. 7.

The repeal of all United State: laws classing certain Indians as non citizens, all people of American Indian blood to be immediately recognized a: American citizens: 9. The repeal of all laws of the United States, or of any state, in whick the words colored, African, Afro-Amer ican, Negro, Mulatto, Indian, Japanese or Chinese are used for the purpose tc making discriminations against the people of any race, nationality, clas: or creed, and the immediate abroga tion of any color line restrictions -en forced without warrant of law. 10. ‘The nations comprising — the League of Nations to be forbidden t enact any legislation which in any wa3 discriminates against the people of the Caucasian, Mongolian, African, Indian and Malay races, or against ‘any na tionality, religious creed or sex. 11.

ADAMS, Editor The Appeal who gave sons to the risk of death. Have we no word of appeal to superior women to give life to sons?” ‘Then came Mrs. William Lowell Putnam of Boston, who startled het audience by declaring that the fault in most of the social ills was with the [women rather than the men, as “women are not so pure minded a: men.” “Men have demanded purity of theit women,” she said, “but women have never demanded it of men.” 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 “eolored development battalion.” It seems that the “gentlemen of the mini- mum” got what they asked for. _ Relative to Col.

But in the rejoicings of peace and freedom there is one note of serious- _ ness, that America must not forget—there is misery and distress and sickness in war-torn Europe. Relief must be given.

A suggestion has been made in the Mail Bag which the Dispatch and Pioneer Press wish to extend to its Umit and then ungualifiedly approve. It applies to the absolute abolish. ment of the hyphen, in its racial sense, henceforward and forever. If tie 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 American. ism, no room for dilution or limita tion. The new order of things in- cludes all possible combinations of hyphenism and is not limited to the nationalities over which we have scored a victory in the name of lib- erty, 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 pro cess 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 ap- proval 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 de- mocracy has been fought and won, let us all now be just—AMERICANS. BISHOP WARNS AMERICA. In a recent address in Chicagc Bishop Charles D. Williams of Michi gan warned against a Pan-American ism as a substitute for Pan-German ism. Among other things Bishop Wil liams aid: “There are people in this country Who would have us annex Mexico and substitute an American kaiser for Wil liam Hohenzollern,” he said. “This is a thing we must fight against. We are a long way behind England as « 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 or ganized Jabor in the United States ‘The British ‘Labor party is made uy not only of workers but the keenest thinking men in the literary world a: well. We have no such organizatior here, but it must come in time, or we shall see a social revolution in thi country.” Bishop Williams went to France or behalf of the Red Cross and made zigzag journey through the countr} devastated by the Hun. ——— PORTO RICANS WANT SELF-RULE. A memorial to President Wilson ask ing complete self-government fo1 Porto Rico is up in the Porto Ricar House of Representatives and is being discussed. It says in part: “Porto Rican soldiers cheerfully and bravely left their homes to figh for democracy. Our culture, our civil ization and the pride of our gloriou: Face 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 colorline which has been forced on the Porto Ricans by the U. 8. Govern ment. When Porto Rico was a Span ish 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. ee ISN'T IT AMUSING? ‘The Alabama Methodist Conference at Mobile, Alabama, has called on President Wilson to summon an inter- national conference to investigate the condition of the Jews in the nations of Burope and to take steps to stop age long persecution. Right there at home in Alabama Pogroms are in evidence at almost jay “time. Hundreds of innocent colored men have been tortured, burned at the stake or mob murdered ‘in some other way, but the ‘hypo- jeritical Methodists have not been able to seo 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 Chris- tians on real Christians in Alabama, the psalm singers have the nerve to Hook 4,000 miles across the sea and [protest against persecutions in other pens ‘The Southern Caucasian Christian is a queer bird, — WHAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE DONE. ‘When the Democrats came into power in 1913, several colored men were holding high offices at Washing- ton, including an Ass‘stant Attorney General, a Register of the Treasury and an Auditor for the Navy, all ap- pointed by a Republican president. ‘The Assistant Attorney General was asked to resign a few days after March 4; the Register of the Treas- ury 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 con- firmed by the Senate. Their duties were the same as those performed by their respective predecessors and were im no way segregated or confined wholly to the colored people. Many colored clerks and employes 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. : THE WAR IS ENDED—sUT— ‘The war is over; peace reigns on earth. But in Europe today there are: more than 2,000,000 American soldiers, who took an important part in bringing the war to a victorious end, and these men must be fed and elothed for a long while to come. It is estimated by the War Department that the cost of equipping and main- taining an American soldier in Europe is $423.27 @ year. The American army was transported to France at the rate of 260,000 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, thet we. must con- tue to raise money with which to maintain our army abroad. ——_—_—_—XX«_X___ IGHTING has ceased, but our war work is not done F until peace is permanently established, the war bills have been paid, our army is brought back home and demobilized and industry readjusted to normal con- ditions.

This incident, showing that we stil Tequire 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. — THE THRONE TOPPLES. It is a fairly safe guess that for a while officialdom at the National Cap tal will not be so self-assertive. This thing of directing the activities of the people in every little detail, and giv ing peremptory orders in matters of ‘small consequence, with belated dis coveries that mistakes had been made became intolerable.

A Quiet Home Wedding of Two Loving Hearts, Marriage is a divine institution that most human beings of both sexes, look forward to entering, some time, with fond expectations. Many have considerable trouble to find a congenial mate, while others experience no serious trouble whatever.

The bride was gowned in silver grey silk poplin with blue georgette and blue silk poplin waist and trimmings, white kid shoes and gloves, and wore pearls. The groom was, as he usually is, on state occasions, attired in a Prince Albert suit. There were no attendants. Mrs. Robert Reed played the wedding march.
