War Chief Warmly Greeted and Gains Much First-Hand Information. Some Human Interest Stories of Negro Battlers on the Firing Line in France. By Ralph W. Tyler, Accredited Representative of the Committee on Public Informa- Article II. Somewhere in France.—With a gasoline can as a rostrum, Secretary of War Baker, in the course of his inspection tour over here, addressed an audience of more than two thousand stevedore troops during their lunch hour. The speech, as well as the entire stage setting, was highly informal. Part of the Secretary's audience lay sprawled upon the roof of a half-finished warehouse overlooking the local gasoline can, and nearly all of them went on munching the contents of their mess kits, as it was intended they should do. The Secretary told the men how proud the people—all the people—at home were of them, and especially how proud their own race was of them. He told them a couple of short, comical stories that quickly surrounded him with an amphitheatre of white teeth all set in a broad smile. When he wound up by telling them that when he got back to America he was going to tell their people how well they had been doing, and the big shove they were giving to the army supplies, which made it possible for the men at the front to win battles, he got such a "hand" as only strong and honestly calloused palms can give a speaker. Both before and after his talk to them Secretary Baker mingled among the men, asking them questions right and left, and thus getting much first-hand information from these colored stevedores. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the Secretary's trip among the colored men over here was at Blois. Here there is a battalion of Class B and C men, all of whom had been wounded in action, and many of whom proudly wore the Cross de Guerre or the D. S. C. They were lined up for inspection, together with their splendid band, also composed of B and C men. The Secretary would not consent to their being introduced to him, but, as he put it: "It is an honor to be introduced to you." From the middle of the boxing ring and bandstand combined, which is the pride of the Blois camp, Mr. Baker told them how much their efforts had been appreciated by the nation; how greatly the nation was indebted to them, and how they—all of them—would be marked men in their communities throughout their entire lives for the service they had rendered their country in time of urgent need. "In after years," he said, "men will come home to their families and tell with pride, and with a glow upon their faces, how they had met and fought with valiant fighting colored men, at Belleau Wood, at Chateau Thierry, at Soissons, on the Vesle and at Champagne." Concluding, Secretary Baker said to these colored troopers: "The history of America is in your hands, for you have enlarged it and helped to make it what it is today—a thing to fill every American with pride." --- Article III. Somewhere in France—A successful raid, planned by one of the majors of the old 8th Illinois Regiment, whose home is at Metropolis, Ill., was made in the Voucharn sector, and with great daring. The motor battery of the regiment first took part in laying down a barrage fire. The barrage fire began at 4 o'clock in the morning—just as the first rays of the sun shone sluggishly, and but dimly, behind the horizon. At the hour named, every gunner was at his gun. The major flashed an electric signal, and within a minute or two thereafter every gun fired simultaneously, as if connected with and controlled by an electric battery. For fifteen minutes the colored gunners kept up their barrage fire; and then a French company was sent out behind the barrage to make the raid. So surprising was the raid, and so quickly made, that but three of the colored soldiers were wounded, and they but slightly, and but eight of the French, with whom they were fighting, while the German casualty toll was eleven killed, three wounded, while the remainder were captured. Stories of the light in the Argonne Forest, and the splendid endurance and valiant fighting of the colored soldiers continue to come in. It is reported that a company of the old 9th Ohio Battalion, under command of its colored captain from Dayton, Ohio, land in an open field all night, awaiting orders to go into action, while all the time the Germans were dumping 210 shells and 88 machine gun fire into them. But even in the face of such a murderous fire, the colored line stood as firm as if the huge shells and murderous machine gun fire was but the discharge of toy blow guns. Among their casualties was Anderson Lee and William Chenault, of Dayton, who were killed. The firmness of the line these khaki-garbed black soldiers maintained in the face of a withering fire—a veritable hell, constitutes one more reason why the folks—the race—back home should be proud of these, their colored soldiers over whose unyielding spirit and bravery's making history for the race. I have learned that Hill 304, which the French so valiantly held, and which suffered such a fierce bombardment from the Germans, that there is not a single foot but that what is plowed up by shells, and whose sides, even today, are literally covered with the corpses of French soldiers, who still lie where they fell, was later as valiantly held by the colored soldiers from the United States, who fought with all the heroism and endurance the best traditions of the army has chronicled. The colored soldiers, under their own captain from Dayton, Ohio, who so splendly maintained their line in the Argonne Forest, and those who held that bloody and historical Hill 304, had the odds against them, but like Tennyson's immortalized "Six Hundred," they fought bravely and well, fir in the belief "it was not their's to reason why, it was their's to do and die," and, like the patriots they were, they did do, and this war's history will so record. RECORD OF COLORED FIGHTING TROOPS TO MAKE PAGE IN HISTORY. WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1918 was is over, and peace, lasting peace, declared, and the necessitous censorship has been lifted so one may mention the names of army units, cities and towns, the colored historian who records the history of the colored soldier in this war, will need no imaginative powers to tell of the service, the daring deeds of valor, and the incomparable fighting colored men did over here in France. Verdun, No Man's Land, Belleau Wood, Chateau-Thierry, Soissons, the Vesle, Argonne, Champagne, et. al., are vast urns which contain the story of how America's black soldiers fought; how they dared, bled and died "to make the world safe for democracy." Bordeaux, Brest, St. Nasair, Montoir, et. al., will forever tell a story of the big achievements of the colored stevedores who helped to make possible the victories of the fighting men at the front. The Y. M. C. A. huts scattered here and there, and in which now labor so splendidly and self-sacrificingly colored Y. M. C. A. workers, will bear testimony, years after, they have been deserted, of the part these non-combatants took in buoying up our boys. The story of how, Crispus Attucks fell at Lexington in 1776 will be but a juvenile—a "Mother Goose" bed-time story beside the story of how our boys fought and fell at Champagne. Fort Pillow and Milliken's Bend of the Civil War will pale beside Chateau-Thierry and Argonne. The story of the Spartans at. Thermopylea, and Tennyson's "Charge of the Light Brigade" as a recitation by the amateur elocutionists, will give place to the charge of the colored troops from America at Champagne. The story of our colored troops, combatants and non-combatants, in this war, will make every colored man, woman and child of today and tomorrow, proud of their race, and proud they were such one hundred per cent Americans as to do their bit cheerfully in this war. View it from any angle you may; locate yourself in any section of the United States you may, you will find after this war that the "New Day and New Duty" our friends have been prophesying for us will be present, and because of the record of valor made by colored soldiers here in France, while pushing, the Hun back from Chateau-Thierry into Wilhelmstrauss. These colored soldiers over here—now quite two hundred thousand, are proud they are here. They would not exchange the opportunity they have had for rendering service to their country for all the fabled riches of Gonconda. When German militarism has been crushed beyond restoration, and glorious peace shall have been achieved by the allies, these colored soldiers, such as survive, will be eager to return to the United States glad that they had and accepted the opportunity to serve well their country and civilization. Such as may fall on the field of battle—and many have—will beam a smile of satisfaction, before entering into eternity, that they had the glorious privilege of dying in, and for, a righteous cause to advance their race back in the States, and everywhere. Contact with the men over here confirms this statement. Knowledge of things over here makes it possible for me to declare that the pages in the history of this war will transmit to posterity no records of stoical endurance and valor more lasting than the record made by colored troops from Bordeaux to the Rhine. We are a part of this great republic, which we helped to build and beautify. * * * Lightless nights have been reduced in Washington, D. C. PORO COLLEGE BUILDING, St. Louis, Mo. PENDLETON AVE. ST.

One of the Greatest Events in the History of St. Louis, Mo., or the Entire West. Hundreds of the Most Representative Citizens of the United States in Attendance—Mr. and Mrs. Malone the Great Central Figures—Many Congratulations Offered the Two Distinguished Citizens of St. Louis, Mo. St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 22. One of the greatest events in the history of St. Louis, Mo., or the entire West, is the opening of Poro College, the greatest hair and toilet manufacturer in the entire West. The principals are Prof. A. E. and Mrs. Malone, two of the most progressive and enterprising citizens in the United States. Prof. Aaron E. Malone is the president of this great corporation, and Mrs. Malone, the founder, is one of the greatest women in the United States. Already many of the leading citizens in the country have begun to arrive. Among those who will be on hand are Roland Hayes, Boston, Mass.; Madam Anita Patti Brown, Dr. Mary Waring, Bishop Parks, Rev. A. J. Cary, Rev. McCracken, Charles Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. Cary Lewis, Mrs. Abbott of Chicago, W. Calvin Chase of the Washington Bee, Bishop Coffin of Philadelphia, Pa.; Dr. W. Sampson Brooks of Baltimore, Md.; Editor Fred R. Moore of the New York Age, Dr. R. A. Jones of New Orleans, delegations from New York, Chicago and other states. Speeches will be delivered by some of the leading orators and scholars in the United States. The reception that is to be tendered to the specially invited guests will be held in the main auditorium of this great structure. Mr. and Mrs. Malone have contributed more to charity and Christian associations than any hundred col- Mr. A. E. Malone ored Americans in the United States. They made the largest and most substantial contribution to the Y. M. C. A. in this city. Their recent contribution to Tuskegee Institute was also one of the many liberal acts of these two citizens: They are friends to humanity. They don't try to earn all and keep it, but liberally help their fellowman. The new structure is a monument to the West, and to the colored race of the United States. The opening of Poro College, which takes place Sunday, November 24th, and continues to December 1st, will be an event that will long be remembered in this great city. No two citizens are more highly respected and honored than Mr. and Mrs. Malone. No institution is doing greater work for the masses than the owners of Poro. Colloge. The Bee will contain a full report of this great event in its next week's issue. DR. HAYNES.

Nearly Four Thousand Dollars Paid Out in the District of Columbia. During the semi-annual term of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, for the years 1915-1917, inclusive, the sum of $3,800 was paid in death benefits to persons living in the District of Columbia from the Supreme Endowment Department. There are some disappointments you bet. I was enjoying an afternoon dinner at Gaskin's a few days ago, and right in front of me was seated a man in uniform. He had a companion with him who had just returned from France. The private said to the officer: "I am very much disappointed." "Why?" asked the officer. "I enlisted to get rid of my wife, and, just think of it. I have been mustered-out and discharged on account of wounds, and now she hobs up." "Who?" said the officer. "My wife, whom I thought I had divorced myself." "You ought to know," said the officer, "that these women have an eye to business. Many of them never had such an easy time. The longer you remain from them and allow them allotment, the better they can enjoy life. The most unhappy moment many of these war brides will spend will be when their legal husbands return home. Undoubtedly, the legal fraternity will be busy. The divorce market will be too small to store the tales of woe." Just at this moment Aaron came in, and he was asked his opinion. Of course, he has been too wise to tie up, and, from present indications, it will be some time before he makes up his mind. He had no opinion. There is only one time in life Aaron has an opinion, and that is when you fail to come across with the price of the goods you order from his waiters. Then he has a decided opinion. The private became dissatisfied with the situation in which he was placed, so he made a quick exit, and, to my surprise, he wended his way to Dade's, and there he met Doc Holmes. You know he, can always give you consolation. He has an opinion on all questions. Doc Holmes threw his head back and his chest out and asked Moses Dade to give him a glass of near-beer. You know, near-beer is Doc's beverage nowadays. It is because he is about to become a Benedict. And, don't you forget it, he has selected an up-to-date partner. Just when it is to take place I am unable to state. Now, Doc told the private that he was making a mistake. "Married life is one of the best institutions in the world," he declared. This declaration from Doc is worth considering. If there ever was a physician who is authority on married life, it is Dr. G. Sumner Holmes. When he had finished lecturing the private, he decided to go forthwith to hunt up his wife, and when he was last seen both were at Graves's. Speaking of disappointments: the most disappointed class of individuals can be found among certain physicians, who advised their wives to take the civil service examination and seek employment in some of the departments, to save themselves from being drafted, and have them to resign on account of alleged sickness, thus causing them to be dependents. They are certainly dependents, all right. It has been the cause of a few of these slackers borrowing money on their Fords. Robert Lewis Waring was in town a few days ago. He had just come to the city on a visit. You know, many of the boys become tired of this neighborhood sometimes and pick up themselves and leave for unknown quarters. After Robert Lewis Waring wrote his book and caused the crackers to defy him to come South, he quietly picked up himself and went to New York, where all Southerners go, and claim to know more than the bona fide New Yorker. Waring is one of the leaders of the colored Republicans now in that town. He is running A. E. Johnson a foot race for Republican leadership. Now, let me tell you, when they can beat Charles W. Anderson they must be born again. Charlie just attends to his own business, and when anything big is to be pulled off among the New York diplomats and diplomats of the world, Charlie is numbered among them and the only one that can be seen at Table No. 1. The other fellows do the loud talking, while Charlie receives the in-ites. There is a new Richmond in the field, and believe me, he is going to make it warm for all competitors. Did you read the fourteen specific reasons in The Bee last week? Don't you know that Prof. John H. Hawkins is the coming man? He has started out right, and if he continues to travel in the same footprints, he would be the Sage's choice for leadership and the man to present the claims of the colored Americans to the Race Conference. Thus far Prof. Hawkins is not a hand-picked representative. He is making himself the "it" among public men. Now, if Prof. Hawkins will not permit himself to Uncle Sam Needs Our Men.

The great trouble with the hand-picked colored American representatives is, they are too easily reached through their stomachs. I have seen some of the strongest advorates of equality of citizenship subsidized through their "tummies." There is a social element in the city who can be seen constantly promenading Avenue "de Nig" and visiting the Dewdrop inn, Cunningham's or Townsley's and trying to make these two leading dispensers of colored literature believe that they are the people: Father Townsley is always ready to tell you what he knows, but very seldom gives an opinion.

Ogden's service to the nation. He said: "Mr. Ogden was one of the best friends the colored race has ever had.

Dr. Gregg, in another address, referred to Mr. Ogden's service in bringing about "the reconciliation of the North and South, of the black man and the white man, the interpretation of each to each, bringing them to see how much common ground they really could and did stand upon, helping them to put each himself in the other man's place, enabling them to lay wise plans and to carry out high and fruitful enterprises for the future of the whole nation." Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, emphasized the importance of cultivating the spirit of service which characterized men like Samuel C. Armstrong, Hollis B. Frissell, Booker T.

THE COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS is well equipped for work along the lines of liberal education and the higher art, and the ACADEMY gives a high school education which enables its graduates to enter the best colleges and universities. The course of study in the COMMERCIAL COLLEGE—Stenography, Typewriting, Bookkeeping, Commercial Law and Journalism—is especially adapted to the work of fitting students to meet the demands of the times for war work, the problems arising from readjustments after the war, and for usefulness in business houses. THE SCHOOL OF PHARMACY is up to date in every respect, and affords a practical education in the science and art of Pharmacy. THE SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL PHOTOGRAPHY fits one for a NEW OPENING which gives promise of a highly remunerative employment with quick cash returns. THE SCHOOL OF USEFUL ARTS is just the place to go to learn to do things needed in every household. PRACTICAL EMBALMING AND SANITATION are taught in the SCHOOL OF EMBALMING. Courses in ARCHITECTURAL AND MECHANICAL DRAWINGS. The Freelinghuysen University is offering special courses of study—two nights each week—in Architectural and Mechanical Drawing. A lecture will also be given, once per week, for the benefit of ALL CLASSES OF MECHANICS, and especially to those who are interested in the BUILDING TRADES—Carpenters, Blacksmiths, Plumbers, Steam Fitters, Gas Fitters, Machinists, etc., and Contractors who do not thoroughly understand the reading of blue prints and working drawings and how to estimate on different classes of building material and work where estimates are made from plans and specifications. A CRISIS IS UPON US—PREPARE TO MEET IT. The problems that will follow in the wake of the returning victorious American Army, in which colored men have played well their part, will create a demand for persons who fully measure up to the situation brought about my new conditions. Mechanic Art and Building Trades will be given a new impetus. Applies Mathematics, Mechanical and Architectural Drafting, and the great questions of Law and International Law will necessarily forge to the front. The people who are not prepared to handle these problems will find themselves without standing in the onward march of civilization and the progress of the world. The Frelinghuysen University is the place to fit yourself for future activities. TERMS ARE REASONABLE. ENTER NOW. Degrees are conferred upon those completing successfully the degree courses.

Below we quote.some typical views: - - Rev: William: C. Brown says: -"What is most, needed by the coloréd people in business is proper colored leadership.” ; Mr. J.C. Manning: says in effect: “There are gpmpetent col- ored leaders, but they.do not‘lead properly because they are ‘aut for themselves.” | - : : ° s Mr. Henry Clay Gray, says: “There is no such thing as a Negro leader or Negro leadership, for the all-sufficient reason ‘that there is no such thing asa Negro following—nothing for a.Negro to lead that can be led.” : wage "Prof. Li M. Hersh@v says'in effect: ' “Failure oft cooperation among“ colored people has been due to the absence ef ‘group con- sciousness.’ ” otf . 3 . 3 : Here is a pretty potpouri of opinion, a, rare medley of seeming contradiction. Are we discouraged? .No. We. venture the sur- mise that all of these, gentemen are nearly right and none of them far wrong, by. which we mean that maybe-all these are the ingre- dients of the. perfect pudding. ‘ : ' * Leading and ‘leadership. among sane people presuppose some ‘specific’ objective. or destination. The colored masses are entirely sane. Until such objective or destination ‘is ,revealed to ‘them, or until it is plain to them as a group whither they should advance as. a ‘unit; they will have little-or no group consciousness; There could be just one other thing that would give them group concur, and that woud be. to suffer in common some calamity.much worse. than théy: now: suffer. All of which practically means that the col- ored: masses, although sane:and although in a relatively unhappy | condition, have not reached thé point of universal dissatisfaction— Secause they are too easily satisfied, qh ; -. The future. successful leader of our colored group must be a’ man able to point out and discover to our colored group why they should be dissatisfied, and after that be able to point out and. dis- cover to them whither they should move—show them an objective. The hegira of. Mohammed the individual.from Mecca to Medina was, not.a. grave problem ; the hegira of a great group always requires a knowledge of the whys, wherefores and wherewithal. Groups move slow and seldom. . Yau : The moment the group sees an adequate objective—being al- ready “dissatisfied—there will. be group -consciousness. ‘Then will the group move forward, even without-a leader, the bettér, of course, under wise generalship. : . The crying need’of the day is for some man with vision; wisdom und love for his species to, show-the colored group their true situa- tion and ‘point’ out to them the grand. dbjective.. That objective is business manhood. The colored man who can successfully lead his group to. that goal is the leader now most in demand. - # | ‘Such a man.ought to be a-person of considerable financial inde ‘pendence, so that he need to give no thought’ to personal bread- winning. . The trouble is that nearly all of-our aisé and good men are exceedingly poor, and there are few among them able or willing to work without pay. And itis doubtful if a very poor man could get a hearing or command attention. : 7 ~ We ought to have several paid leaders, such as Parnell or Gom- pers, who are not concerned about personal bread-winning, and-who are beyond the temptation of graft. “ : 2 A MOSES. NEEDED. The colored American race ‘is greatly in need of a Moses—orie that-is not hand-picked or controlled by the blandishments of official environment—a man of the -people and. designated by the people: Not. a Moses who deals in glittering generalities, hut a’ man who is fearless, sensible and determined to present the clainis of his people io the bar of public opinion. Hand-picked leaders, so, called, have been a menace to the civilization of the colored race. - . For almost a centurythe colored race has been betrayed by apologists and trimmers. who have been subsidized with official fa- vors, with but a few exceptions. ‘. . . Is there a man today in whom the colored race can confide, trust and follow? If so, let him come forth. Ever.since the emancipa- tion of the colored ‘race the Republican party has had a quasi claim on it and'to some éxtent betrayed it to its. political enemies. The time has now come for the race to think for itself and be guided by a conviction that will lead it to exercise an opinion that swill demarid equality of citizenship. The Beé wants it distinctly understood that -the nightmare which sometimes affects the South—alléged social equality—is not in the minds; of ‘colored Americans. : : No better claims of the colored race could have been more log- ically stated than those expressed, by Prof. John H. Hawkins, which appeared in The Bee last week. - Let the principles he laid down be the basis of the. claims of colored.

Mrs. Davis of Staunton, Va., spent a part of last week with her sister, Mrs. Stribling. Mr. Iyan Reeves of York, Pa., spent Sunday with his uncle, Rev. George Powell. Mr. Reeves is attending the Students' Army Training Camp at Hampton. Mr. Tom Miller made a flying trip out here on Wednesday night to see his mother, Mrs. Jenny Miller. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Denny of Munson Hill was destroyed by fire last week. Because it was Rev. Johnson's last Sunday in his church before leaving for the Chaplain's Army Training Camp, communion services were held at the Methodist Church on the second Sunday night. The new individual communion service was used which has been just recently purchased. The failure of the appearance of the ten soldiers from Walter Reed Hospital at the home of Mrs. Carver was no fault of hers, but was due to the neglect of a phone message being delivered by a neighbor.

There were many beautiful floral pieces. one from Mrs. Hopkins, widow of Major Hopkins; a spray of white roses on palm branches from Mrs. Summerall, and a bouquet from a friend, Mr. Lewis Richards, and many others. On Wednesday night at 9 p. m. Mr. Summerall passed to the world beyond, after a lingering illness, at the age of 51 years. He was born in Maudren, Florida, October 16th, 1867, and came to Falls Church, Va., in 1902, with Major Parker, from Florida. After several years with Major Parker he became nurse for Major Hopkins for nine years. Mr. Summerall was married to Miss Fannie Stribling June 19, 1913: His widow, five sisters and one brother survive him. Three sisters, and one brother living in Jacksonville, Fla., and two sisters in California. He endured his illness with patience and faith, trusting in Jesus and waiting for the comforter with the chariot of angels to bare him away beyond his suffering. Just one hour before he died he said to his pastor, who read the scripture and had prayers, that "Jesus was his main dependent." Mr. Summerall joined Galloway M. E. Church in 1913, and has been a faithful member during his stay here. He had a most lovable and admirable disposition, which won for him many friends, who loved him dearly, and whom he cherished in every walk of life. His kind words and sweet smiles have carried him through life and followed him till death stole upon his face and changed his earth- "Reconstruction as it Affects the Colored American" Under the auspices of the Executive Committee of the National Race Congress at the 19th St. Baptist Church, Wednesday night Nov. 27th, 1918.

No. 8. I began October 5, 1918, this series of talks on the settlement of the great war. Those talks are not discussions, but flats, embodied in sixteen propositions in the issue of October 12th, and eighty-four rules in subsequent issues of this paper. I give below a summary of those propositions and rules: Summary. The League of Nations shall have no voice in the preliminary settlement (P. 1). There ought to be no "peace terms" with the foe (P. 5). The extent of the reparation and restitution shall be according to the ability of the yandals to repair and restore. That ability, will be enhanced by fixing a long taxing period (P. 7). Emigration from the conquered lands to be restricted until the end of the taxing period (P. 8). Liberty and self-determination for all lands (P. 14). Ensancipate the economically and politically enslaved "inferior" races the world over (P. 15). The foe to be disarmed (R.1). Limited military occupation (R.2). The vanquished to pay actual damages (R.11). Specific restitution of stolen or raped property (R.12). Rehabilitation by the foe of property destroyed (R.13). The taxing period to be the period of the enforcement of the payment of the penalties (R.14). - The settlement commission, representing the victors, should be the chief administrative agency of the victors for the enforcement of the penalties and the necessary rectifications (R.15). The debt to be paid by the foe shall consist (a) of actual damages caused, (b) of actual part cost of the war to the victors, and (c) of the future cost of the war to the victors (R. 19). The Atonement Debt shall be the name and style of this debt. The Atonement Debt to be apportioned among the offenders according to their respective populations in the year 1910 (R. 20). The amount of reparation to be claimed by each victor nation to be determined by a uniform rule of calculation applicable to all the victors (R. 24). No transfer of sovereignty of any of the territory of any vanquished foe shall exempt that territory from the payment of its pro rata part of the Atonement Debt (R. 26, 34). Any sovereign power taking territory shall pay for the same according to its value (R. 31). Russia shall assist in the payment of the Atonement Debt (R. 77, 80). The territory to be penalized may be apportioned by the Settlement Commission into divers taxing districts; each administered by a military governor (R. 16). The German African colonies ought to be transferred to the United States of America, without cost to that country, to be held in trust for the black races (R. 84). Settlement Commission: The question has been asked me. What is the necessity for a settlement commission? My answer is that the problem of the settlement after the war will be too vast and longstanding for an ordinary peace commission. The peace commission must do all it can, but it must delegate much work to a committee of much longer duration. That committee I have tentatively named the settlement commission. In a future talk I purpose to discuss the scope of the work of the settlement commission. Quid Pro Quo. The basis of my plan of settlement is simple justice, the rule of quid pro quo. I have tried to repress promptings of either harsh revenge or tender sentiment. We should spurn the barbarous doctrine of "an eye for an eye" as we should also contemn "maudlin slobber and boastful charity." It is not our duty both to save the world and feed the world gratis. We have our own miserable poor, too long neglected. Let every sinner and every beneficiary pay quid pro quo. For damage done let Germany and her kind pay quid pro quo. For any territory to be taken by France or Italy, Po- land or Bohemia, let them pay quid pro quo. For any captured armament appropriated by any country let her pay quid pro quo. I suppose the United States will take her pay in cash or balance of trade, as also Great Britain. They have spent much money and will be satisfied to get it back. THE ISSUE MUST BE MET. The Republican Party Must Do Its Duty—The Leaders of the Republican Party Have a Mission. By Joseph C. Manning. Supporters of the Republican party, who have the Republicanism of Abraham Lincoln, must stand for the principles of justice, as against the rule of the masses of the people of the South by a political autocracy. Party inaction will no longer be excused or tolerated. This issue must be met. Republican party leaders in the North were merely content, in the Congress in 1807, to unseat counted-in Democrats from the South, when it was shown that, by ballot box stuffing in the Black belt, that over thirty Southern Democrats were fraudulently in Congress. Congress was then largely dominated by Republicans, and laws should then have been enacted, when the Republican party was in power, to enforce ballot rights in the South. A majority of the Southern white people were then voting anti-Democratic. the South, but also to exercise representation in Congress for the South repressed by this conspiracy of political jugglery. The riviting of this system on the Southern people was done under Republican administrations that dominated, in the meantime, the whole federal government. Well may the Republican party leaders of the North now cry aloud against domination of the general government by the South in the saddle of democracy, but why not an outcry as against the domination of the people of the South by the Southern autocracy? Is the Northern Republican to again rest the case with mere. Northern sectional domination? The New York World, November 14, has Washington correspondence stating that the Democratic senators are threatening contests of newly elected Republican claimants to seats in the United States Senate. How about Southern members of Congress who exercise representation in states where the suffrage right has been denied and abridged, but where representation has not been reduced according to Constitutional provisions? These cases ought to be acted upon and constitutional government in the South no longer permitted to remain a mockery. The cowardly policy of the Republican party leaders of the North on this issue has invited the brazen assumption and encouraged the insulting affrontery of the South in the saddle of democracy: Only recently a certain Republican leader said, in conversation with one of my acquaintances, that I should not discuss too much past history. It was desired that I conline my discussion entirely to present control by the South in the saddle of democracy. It is unpleasant to recall these mistakes of the past, but it is necessary, in this instance, that all the facts may be brought out and the assurance brought forward that past history will not be repeated. I refuse to dwell solely on the wrongs of Southern misrule, either at Washington or in the South, without emphasizing the recreancy of the Republican party and doing my utmost to create public sentiment that will no longer permit this course of action. Some craven time server, who prefers a federal office to liberty for the oppressed South, may serve the political expediency of the hour. I refuse to apply myself as the tool of any whose only desire is political capital for campaign usage. This is the time to cast off as party leaders Republicans who are activists on the issue of "world democracy" for everywhere at home. This is the time for a campaign against this wanton remaining half enranchised and half disenfranchised. I propose as a candidate for the Republican nomination for President to squarely place this cause before the American people. I will not hesitate. I ask the encouragement of all American citizens who have the decency to not deny to other American citizens rights they demand for themselves. The power of truth will prevail. Right is not a question for dispute. The Blue and White S. A. T. C. team bowed to the Gold and Black S. A. T. C. to the time of 7 to 0 in the first game of the army series played by Hampton. Lincoln lost the toss and kicked to Hampton, the Blue and White receiving on the west end of the field. Williams advanced the ball 15 yards and was downed. At once Hampton began an open field game and Anderson shot a long pass to Nelson, who dropped it, with not a man around him. The early part of the game demonstated which was the better team, because Hampton rushed the ball twice, as far as Lincoln. The first half ended without either side scoring. The third period saw the Blue and White trailing, Lawson, a Hampton half back, had a punt blocked by Williams, his full back. The ball rolled over the goal line and a Lincoln man fell on it. Hampton men tried several forward passes, and were successful in five. The Hampton S. A. T. C. team is not at all discouraged that Lincoln S. A. T. C. won.

The National Race Congress of America at its last annual meeting, October 1, 2 and 3, authorized that a commission be sent to France at the earliest possible date to cheer and encourage our soldier boys "over there," and to contribute in whatever way they can to their comfort and welfare. Prominent men of the race compose the commission. It will require at least $4,000 to meet the expense of this commission, and we issue this appeal to the public asking for contributions toward this fund. All checks or money orders for this purpose should be made payable to A. A. Graham, Correspondent and Financial Secretary, who will promptly acknowledge with official receipt. The money will be sent to A. A. Graham, Box 177, Phoebus, Va., or headquarters, 903 3rd Street N. W., Washington, D. C. In order to get the commission "over there" at an early date it should be on hand by December 1, 1918. We earnestly pray that every unit of our Congress, the churches and lodges throughout the country, and every one interested in the welfare of our soldiers in France will respond to this appeal at once. We call upon pastors especially to put this matter before their churches. The following amounts have been pledged: R. F. Williams, Texas, $100; S.' J. Walls, N. C., $100; Walter Darden, N. J., $100; J. E. Bryant, Miss., $100, with many lodges pledging $10 each. Race papers please Signed by the following committee: A. A. Graham, William H. Stokes, John R. Hawkins, C. H. Stepteau and H.

SIMON PETER DREW Why Not Help Him?—A Chance for Baptist Charity. The Baptist churches of this city, and especially the Baptist Conference, have an opportunity to show their magnanimity by rendering help to Rev. Simon Peter Drew to get back his church, which he unfortunately had to abandon. Rev. Drew may have his faults, but he never attempts to wrong any one. tist denomination, now is the time If there is any heart in the Bapto show it. There is no reason why the entire Baptist denomination should not help Rev. Drew. The Bee sympahizes with him, and hopes that the entire Baptists will practice what they have been preaching. This is the hour to show to the people that there is more to the Baptists than glittering generalities. AMUSEMENTS. Howard Theater—Seventh and T Streets N. W. Hiawatha—2004 Eleventh Street Northwest.
