BUT, when Irish-Americans asked for passports for four of their repre- sentatives to go to France and work among the delegates to the Peace Conference for FREE IRELAND, which really means interferring with the internal affairs of Great Britain, the passports were granted without a quibble. If it is right for Irish-smericans to go to the Peace Conference, why were Colored-Americans denied the right? MINISTER MILITANT. “I don’t propoge to have it (the league of nations) crammed down my throat until I know what it is, what it looks like, tastes like and what it is to cost this country.” This is the way one minister expresses his views concerning the league. He is the Rev. Charles A. Eaton, pastor of the Madi- son Avenue Baptist Church, of New York, and head of the National Service Section of the U. S. Shipping Board. He expressed his views while speak- ing at Wilmington, Del. and praised the critics of the league plan, even though he is for a league of nations, by saying: “God bless the thirty- seven Senators who criticized the league of nations plan, Americans have to make the greatest decision since the signing of the declaration of independence.” o SC DOOVREE b y W i es SN @ y G ey y em (SY .

Bryan positively asserts that the idea in the League of Nations of “deliberation before war” is taken from the 30 treaties negotiated by the United States with three-quarters of the world. - These treaties were writ- ten while Mr. Bryan was Secretary of State. So the idea is not, as some Would have us understand, original with Mr. Wilson, However, if this nation should ever again undertake the deliberation which characterized our “watchfully waiting” Administra- tion from 1914 to 1917 it might be we would be overwhelmed before the plan of defense had been mapped out. WE'LL HANDLE OUR BUSINESS. ‘We shall very likely make many changes in our laws and a few changes in our Constitution, in the future as jin the past, but we shall make them on our own judgment and not at the ‘behest of people of other lands, who have come here to share in Américan prosperity without helping to sup- port American institutions. | CONSIDER THE SKYROCKET. "Midst all his luxurious voyages across the Atlantic, his parades be- fore the cheering throngs, his festivi- ties with royalty and his dictation of peace treaties, President Wilson should reflect that “No bird.ever flew so high but that he had to light.” ASKS RACE EQUALITY. Action by the peace conference to eliminate race prejudice, which he termed “a fruitful source of discon. tent and uneasiness among nations in the past,” was urged by Viscount Ishii, Japanese ambassador to the United States, speaking before the Japan so- ciety here tonight, Nothing would contribute more ef- fectively to the foundation of perma- nent peace, he declared, than appli- cation of a proper remedy, “at this op- portune moment,” to “this cause of in- ternational discord.” The constitution of a league of nations, he added, would not be worthy of the conference if it omitted a provision to right the “con- spicuous injustice” arising out of pre- judice between the races. ‘Viscount Ishii urged the right of the Asiatics, “who fought side by side with the Anglo-Saxons, Latins, and Slavs against the common foe,” to equal consideration among the allied peoples. “The single minded object of the war,” said the ambassador, “was the maintenance of international justice and the establishment of durable peace. No consideration of racial feel- ing entered into the supreme decision for the sacrifices of blood and treasure on the part of any of the allied or associated powers. “And now, when this war for inter- national justice is about to come to its happy termination and when the world league for permanent peace is being contrived, why should this ques- tion of his race prejudice, race discrim- THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on pro- test. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the .in- quisition 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 many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. ination, and race humiliation alone be left unremedied? When restriction or prohibition of discriminatory treat- ment of chattels and commodities is being adequately provided for, why should this unjust and unjustifiable discrimination against persons be al- lowed to remain untouched?” SOUTH OUT OF SADDLE. An analysis of the state of commit- tee chairmanships of the next house, as framed by the Republican commit- tee on committees, shows the transfer of power from the south to the north, with the middle west exercising the dominant influence. ‘Whereas nearly all of the important chairmanships, during the Democratic regime, were held by the south, omy two states south ‘of the Ohio river, Kentucky and Tennessee, will figure in the list this time. These two states will have one minor chairmanship each. _ ‘The chairmanships of seven of the ten principal committees will be held ‘by representatives from the four mid dle western states of Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Two of the remaining three go to Pennsylvania and one to California. Pennsylvania leads the list of states in the number of chairmanships with eight. Mlinois is second with seven, but none of these is a major chairmanship. == PAID FOR PULCHRITUDE. How about this: Discharged soldier: receive a bonus of $60 and girls re tained in Government service receive bonus of $240 with a big increase ir salaries. Does the government owe these girls more than it does the men who faced death in France?. As one soldier says: “Washington keeps its ‘girls and the soldier keeps his uniform ‘because he cannot buy a suit.” Such ‘a condition shouldebe remedied at the next session of Congress. Bills have already been prepared to give the men a year's pay, and other advantages. It the government can afford a $240 bonus for its girl war workers it can afford a substantial bonus for the men who won the war. Think it over! NOT UNDERSTANDABLE, An Iowa farmer’s wife writes the Chicago Tribune that she can’t under. stand why the War Department doesn’t discharge first those soldiers who have jobs awaiting them. That is only one of the scores of things concerning the War Department that the country can’t understand. JEWS OPPOSE A SEGREGATED NATION. | Short-sighted colored men who are talking about a “negro republic” in Africa, and forgetting to agitate for reform in the treatment of 12,000,000 colored citizens of the United States, olight to know that prominent non- Zionist Jews from all parts of the United States have sent with Presi- dent Wilson to the peace conference BRUCE GRIT FILES STRONG DEMURRER : AGAINST MOTON’S METHODS SCL — SS (Gis \ OYA SS ge a (©) e/ Na we” \ .

No; An Absolute Democracy! But Wilson Reigns! (From the Cincinnati Union.) ‘There are more ways of killing a dog than hanging him.” Our Demo- cratic’ administration, so anxious to make the world safe for democracy, has shown a sublime disregard for the rights and safety of colored American citizens at home. It now seems to feel that, by refusing passports to representatives of those who complain of intolerable conditions here, that Europe will not know of the foul canker that gnaws the very vitals of our government! "Tis another case of the ostrich sticking it head in the sand and feeling that its body is hid. Europe knows that there is a skel- eton in America’s closet and that that skeleton is the black citizen of the U. S,, occupant of the frontline trenches during times of war; occu- their objections to the Zionist demand for a Jewish state in Palestine. The petition was handed to the President by Congressman Kahn on February 5. There were 988 names on the petition representing the rich- est and most prominent Hebrews in the country. . The objections to the establishment of a “Jewish Homeland in Palestine” are set forth under four specific head. ings, the chief one of which is that “the Jews are dedicated heart and ‘soul to the countries in which they dwell under free conditions.” “All Jews,” the petition states, “re Pudiate every suspicion of a double allegiance, but to our minds it is nee. essarily implied in and cannot by any logic be eliminated from the estab lishment of a sovereign state for the Jews.” ‘The petition also states that “by the large part taken by them in the great war, the Jews have once and for all shattered the base aspersions of the anti-Semites, who charged them with being aliens in every land, incapable of true patriotism, and prompted only by sinister and self-secking motives.” It says that those who would seek ‘the establishment of a Jewish sover- eign state and yet “insist on their ‘Patriotic attachment to the countries of which they are citizens, are selt- deceived in their professions of Zion- ism, and under a spell of emotional romanticism or of a religious senti- ment fostered through centuries of gloom.” If the Jews representing to a great extent the leadership in commerce and industry and the money power of the World are opposed to a “jimerow” state, why should not colored men pro- test against segregation in every form? == SAME OLD STUFF. Remembering the language in which President Wilson induced his demo. cratic congress to reverse itself on the subject of Panama canal tolls, against the interests of the United States, it will not be surprising if he tells the’ country that the proposed constitution of the League of Nations must be indorsed “in ~ungrudging measure” or he will not know how to deal with other vital international problems. GOSH! THINK OF IT! People who pay taxes to cover the expenses of the war Wilson was elected to keep us out of, should scrutinize with suspicion his play to | tho galleries with a plan to keep us out of future wars. First thing we know we will be paying taxes for the war the league will get us into. =——— | BILL BRYAN BOBS UP. According to William Jennings Bry- an, federal control of the rafiroads pant of the “Jim Crow” coaches dur- ing times of peace. ‘The pity of the whole despicable business is that our country is not great enough to live up to its own constitution, not noble enough to fol- low the precepts of its own Christian. ity! It basely bows to the caprice of prejudice and condemns its own citizens to scorn, contempt and humill- ation. The burden of this petty pass- port problem need not be placed on the shoulders of France, for thatrglor- ious country ‘has ever been -great enough to honor and protect its citi zens, regardless of race, regardless of color. The tint of the skin, the curl of the hair, has never been the badge of humiliation in La Belle, France; and so in her time of need, gloriously did her sable sons rally to her support. ‘The day will come when America on bended knee will cry for help. ‘Will there still remain forgiy. ing black sons to come to her aid, or will they all have been brutally done to death by the mob, the tree, the torch? oe doesn't work because there are stil some railroad'men connected with it. We suppose that the theater will at. tain its highest state of efficiency just as soon as all the actors are removed and that the churches will reach the pinnacle of success in removing evil from the world when the preacher: have all been taken away. Better stick to grape juice and woman sut frage, William! “REBUILDING THE WORLD.” “Rebuilding the world,” is the in- seription surrounding the cross on the shield of the “Missionary Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church,” wiilch is working up a scheme to get Southern colored people to plant cot ton in “God's Acreage” and contribute the money to the missionary fund of $120,000,000 which it is planned to raise. - ‘THE APPEAL does not believe that the ‘colored people should give one Penny to aid the Methodist Episcopal Church until it reverses its present Jimerow policy. The Methodist Episcopal Church split into two branches over the ques- tion of slavery, but now the Northern and Southern branches are to come together again at the centenary. The weak-kneed Northern men have given in to the aggressive Southerners and have agreed to sacrifice their colored members who have been asked to form a jim crow church, So far the colored members have refused to get out, but they may perhaps be kicked out. __The Methodist Bpiscopal Church has ‘given up all ideas of the “Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man,” and at the centenary it is very likely that the brethren will recount the wonderful thing the church has done for “the negro” and all will join in singing “Onward, Christian Soldier.” —— 7; enon Bit, Mr. Madden, of Illinois, has offered a bill in Congress to further amend an act entitled “An Act to regulate com- merce,” approved in 1887, that will, if passed, do away with every jim-crow system of transportation within the territorial boundaries of the United States. It has been referred to the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce and ordered to be printed. As the next Congress which will have it to deal with has working Republican majority, it is hoped that the mem. bers of the party of, Lincoln and Sum- mer, the party of equal rights, will see to it that it is promptly enacted into law. The government-supported U. 8. Em- ployment Service Bulletin exclaims, “Let us get down to hardpan—we hun. dred million Shylocks.” That is sure- ly a new one. The American people have been called almost everything else, but this is the first time they have been called a hundred million Shylocks.

GC. DEC. 18, 1918. Colored America, through delegates assembled from 37 of the United States of America, sore and bleeding with persecution because of race and color, hails with hope peace with victory, for the motto on the banners of the armies of the victors was “Away with tyranny and its injustice every- where.” Speaking for 12,000,000 Colored Americans, the National Colored Representative Assembly for World Democracy under the auspices of the National Equal Rights League congratulate their fellow Countrymen and their government on being the instrument by which the God of righteousness turned the tide of battle for the forces of liberty. War Put On World Basis As To The Results. Two hemispheres and the islands of two oceans furnished without regard to race or color the armies of this bloody and terrible war. Shameful it would be if its close did not mark a new humane era. To the President of our Republic, Commander-in-Chief of our army and navy it was given to name the principles on which the winners fought this war. and its purpose. By his declaration, accepted by France, Britain and the rest openly before the human race, the principles and the ‘aim of this war were put upon a world basis. Secondly these principles and alms were for the wiping out of autoc- racy, inhumanity and injustice, and for the establishment of world justice, world humanity and world democracy. Wrongs To Individual On World Basle For Redress. With the ushering 4n of the new year, 1919, the nations of the world are assombled to settle the terms of peace for the world, for the establishment everywhere of the principles for which this world war was waged by the forces of democracy. Therefore every denial or violation of justice, humanity and democracy has become a matter FOR CORRECTION AND ABROGATION ON A WORLD | BASIS BY A WORLD COURT. Hence Colored America, which furnished 400,000 brave soldiers tor this war backed by over 12,000,000 loyal citizens without a traitor, appeals to the allied World for justice and Democracy in the peace settlement. Utterly Undemooratic Treatment Of Colored People of U. 8. A. Citizens by law of the United States of America, the famous Republic of the West, wo first appeal to the civilized world for the discontinuance of all race or class discrimination in the world peace settlement. At this ‘upreme moment in the cause of universal humanity, when wrongs to man should be banished, we must call world attention to the utterly undemo- eratic conditions under which every person of color is forced to live in this country. Because of race autocracy, our color in the Nation’s Capital de- Drives us of every civil right except in public carriers and subjects us to Fejection or to the restriction of the Ghetto as employees of the federal Sovernment. Otherwise our color in many parts of the country deprives us of every civil, political, social and judicial right; subjects us to obloquy, imposition, deprivations, injustices, cruelties, atrocities, worse in degree than. exist anywhere else in Christendom. Segregation in public carriers, dis- franchisement, lynching are essentially violations of that world democracy for which the war was fought. Self-determination For Darker Nations. ‘That the tremendous material and appalling human losses of this world war may not be without result for good, we appeal to the peace conclave to grant selfdetermination and rights without discrimination to all of the darker nations. ‘The Appeal Sent By Race Petitioners For Universal Abolition Of Color Proscription, On our part we shall send race petitioners to the assembly of the repre- sentatives of the civilized world meeting to make good the promise of the Yictors in tho world war, to petition for the abolition of autocracy of race against Colored persons everywhere, and to appeal to this world Court for the discontinuance of color proscription and all distinctions based on color, ginte, political and judicial IN EVERY NATION AS AN ARTICLE OF THE FRACE AGREEMENT, that the world may be remade truly on the baste of {he liberation of the people of the earth, and of the enjoyment by every human being of world democracy. Else There I No “New Day.” For without this there will not be the dawning of a new day of democ- macy, or of @ new era of permanent peace after the most terrible and gigantic war ever known embracing two hemispheres in a death grapple between the forces of autocracy and of democracy.

One of St. Paul's Gifted Daughters Has Gone to Join the Heavenly Choir. That, "Death loves a shining mark," was again painfully demonstrated in our city on last Monday, when the grim monster claimed as his victim, one of the most talented musicians of our city, in the person of Mrs. Albreta Bell-King. In the month of June of last year she left this city, carrying with her the best wishes for her future welfare and happiness, of a host of friends who had known her from childhood and who loved her for her sterling qualities of head and heart. She went to meet her affanied husband Dr. John F. Kihg, a distinguished dentist of Knoxville, Tenn. They met in Louisville, Ky., and amid appropriate surroundings for such an occasion on Wednesday, June 12, at 4:30 p. m. they were joined in holy matrimony and she accompanied her husband to their home in Knoxville. They were filled with high hopes for the future and the young couple fitted into the highest social circle of that city and for a few months they enjoyed life as only young folks can. Mrs. King was delicate and frail and she fell an easy prey to insidious disease and in the hope that her health might be regained she returned to the home of her childhood and the care of a devoted mother a few weeks ago. She was supplied with the best medical skill and the attention of her indefatigable mother, everything possible was done for her, which was found that she could not recover* and her husband was sent for. He arrived on last Sunday, sad and despondent, but met the inevitable like a man. The funeral was held at the family residence, 531 St. Anthony avenue, at 2:00 p. m. on Wednesday, and at St. James A. M. E. church at 2:30 p. m. The church was filled to overflowing with the friends of the deceased and her family, who were desirous of paying the last tributes of respect, and there was a very large number of very beautiful and appropriate floral tributes. The funeral services began with singing by the choir of, "The Sunbright Shore," followed by the viewing of the remains of the deceased, shrouded in the elegant bridal gown that enhanced her beauty as she was led to the hymeneal alter a few short months ago, and which again added thereto as she reclined in her last sleep upon the handsome couch casket lined with pure white satin. The funeral cortege was led by the flower bearers, comprising members of the Afternoon Art Club, (of which the deceased was a member) as follows: Mesdames Harriet Cockle, Lillian McKnight, Flossie Johnson, MRS. ALBRETA BELL-KING. Eleanor Smith, Misses Mayme Goins, Sadie Wilson, Blanch Goins, Mildred Shull, Lucille James. Singing "Nearer My God to Thee": prayer, Rev. A. H. Leatad; scriptural reading, Rev. J. C. Anderson; reading of obituary, Mr. A. V. Hall, author, by Mr. Charles H. Miller. OBITUARY. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil, for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me." Albreta Bell-King, born Jan. 13th, 1895, beloved daughter of A. J. Bell, deceased, and Amanda J. Bell, faithful and earnest member of St. James A. M. E. church. Reared in an atmosphere of practical christianity, Albreta grew to womanhood, active in church and Sunday School, and loved by all who knew her. Early in life her musical proclivities were pronounced. Natural talents backed by hours of study and tireless practice, rewarded her highest ambition. As a pianist and accompanist she earned the commendation and esteem of the leading musicians of our city. In church work she was constant and willing. Her excellent talents ever at the call and service of her church and the choir. It was given with that peculiar happiness she realized in serving others. As a teacher in the primary department of the Sunday School she found expression for one of her sweetest virtues—her love of little children. On June 12th, 1918, Albreta became the bride of Dr. John F. King, of Knovville, Tenn., and for seven months resided in that city, until illness necessitated a mother's care, mother's "tireless vigil, that only a mother can give. She returned to this city, and on Monday, last, March 31st, at 12:55 p. m. God called her home. Through a long period of sickness, with a brave heart and a tender smile so bright and cheery that many doubted her serious illness. It was but the smile of a courageous soul, brave in the knowledge that she had lived rightly; with her all nature breathed in harmony. With more than minstrel power. There was music in each waving tree, and joy in every opening flower. Scarcely had the rose-bud opened —scarcely had the spring-time of life arrived, eet the harvest time had come. Yet no complaint was there, no word of protestation. Only a cheery smile and the humble faltering words, "They will, not mine, be done." Naught will remain more inspiring, more enduring than the price- band, mother, brother, sister, godmother (Dearie Williams) and a host of friends measured only by the number of her acquaintances. None knew her but to love, None knew her but to praise; Peaceful to the grave thou goeth; less legacy of a good name, a life though short but well spent. To those who survive her, hus- Thou no more will join our number. Thou no more our sorrows know, Yet, again we hope to meet thee When the day of life is fled. And in Heaven with Joy to greet thee, Where arewell tears are shed. Reading of resolutions by Mr. B. C. Archer. RESOLUTIONS We the St. James A. M. E. Sunday School offer the following resolutions: As the beautiful tints of a sunset sky soon disappear, so the memory of most women, however brilliant their careers, fades away at the close of life's brief day. But sometimes the splendor of the after glow linger long, and fades but slowly into the night; so by fond recollections and the records of deeds well done, we would perpetuate the beauty of a beautiful character. The mysterious clock which the Angel of Life wound up, to the allotted time (three score years and ten), before turning the key to the Angel of Resurrection, stopped at the close of just barely one score years. For as the shadows were blinding the earth softly closing the powers of them to sleep, silently and lovingly in the promise of a bright and awakening the finger of His infinite love touched Albreta Bell King on this past Monday, and she slept. It is difficult to reason why this young life, so full of talent and hope, and with prospects of a successful future, should be taken from us. We cannot answer until we too enter the Great Beyond where all such mysteries will be revealed to us. When we shall clearly know and understand; I think that we will say God knew the best. Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God in His all wise providence to take from us our own little Albreta. Be it resolved, that while we, St. James A. M. E. Sunday School, bow in loving submission to God's will, we sincerely mourn her untimely death, and we feel, while it is our loss, it is her gain. Be it resolved, that while we sorrow, though we also rejoice that our departed loved one learned in her early childhood of the firm belief in a Heavenly Father and was taught this lesson in her home and the Sunday School that she attended so regularly, and that she was ever loyal and submissive, the will of our Heavenly Father. Be it further resolved, that we send a copy of these resolutions to the bereaved family and the same be spread upon the records of the St. James A. M. E. Sunday School records. Respectfully, B. C.

There was a very largely attended meeting at St. Peter A. M. E, church last Tuesday ‘evening that was very largely interesting also. Mrs, Ione Gibbs spoke on “Co-operative Alli- ance;"" a native of Japan spoke on the “League of Nations.” Revs. Sto- vall and Cooper also made addresses. Supper was served in the ehureh basement, Some colored people must rid them- selves of the erroneous idea, that be- cause they happen to be blessed with a little worldly goods, they are far superior to others less fortunate. ‘That idea is equally as detrimental to our progress as the idea the whites hold, that their difference in complex: ion makes them superior to colored People. The quicker we lose sight of these mental illusions the more rapid strides we can take towards progress, Parents should instill this into the minds of their children because the| actions of children certainly reflect on the teaching of their parents, Bethesda Baptist church closed its great financial rally, for its rebuilding fund, which has been in progress for several months, on last Sunday with $1,088.05 in actual cash now in bank, and upward of $250.00 of good pledges still to be collected.

O'Malley, County ‘Treasurer and President of the Dratt Board of this district, with the request that a fitting reunion be gotten up for the boys on their return. Mr. O'Malley informed Mr. R. M. Johnson that he had made some financial ar. rangements to give the returning heroes a welcome with the proper eclat. So with the co-operation of these two gentlemen and the public a big time may be confidentially looked forward to when all things are over over there. Wait and watch for it, CORRESPONDENCE TEACHING! Is Now Developed at the University of Minnesota, Tt was once thought that to gain knowledge in any -systematic manner one must put himself under the direct, Personal supervision of a teacher. Many still think this, and when ‘it is impossible to do this give up all ef. fort at self improvement. This is to call attention to the fact that instruc- tion by correspondence has been de- veloped to meet just such needs as theirs at the State University at Min- neapolis and the work is conducted by the Correspondence Study Depart- ment of the General Extension Divi- sion. The work as at present organized includes preparatory and college grade courses and vocational courses in business “and engineering subjects. The preparatory courses are of high school grade. The college courses enable one to work for credit toward ‘a degree trom the University. As many as half the credits required may be earned in this way. Students who seek university credit must be able to satisfy the entrance requirements of the University, but if credit is not de- sired, any one may register for these courses. Many of them are of general value, dealing as they do with. eco- nomics, history, political science, sociology, and other subjects of pres- ent interest. The vocational courses are practical in their nature and make constant application of the principles they teach. These, as well as the other types of courses, will be in- creased in number and scope-as the demand grows. VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN. ‘The following poems are from the prolific pen of Mr. E. G.
