Washington Tribune

Illustrated FEATURE SECTION Washington Tribune From Slave to President by J.A.ROGERS NEGRO SLAVE was the George Washington and the Lincoln combined of Mexico. And he was also its second president. Mexico, at that time, was larger than the United States. NEGRO SLAVE was the George Washington and the Lincoln combined of Mexico. And he was also its second president. Mexico, at that time, was larger than the United States. Vicente Guerrero was born at Ixtla, Mexico, in 1782. His father was Juan Pedro Guerrero and his mother, Maria Guadelupe Saldana, of mixed Negro and Indian parentage. Perhaps there was also a white strain for he is often referred to as a half-caste, and Larousse, foremost French encyclopedia, speaks of him as a "mulatto slave" (esclave, mulatre) "who led the fight for Mexican independence." Guerrero began life as a mule-driver. His people were the lowest of the low. They were degraded by law, custom and prejudice, and hindered in every way from rising. Unlike Lincoln, Guerrero hadn't the slightest chance to learn to read. He was nearly forty before he knew a letter of the alphabet. In 1810 when Guerrero was twenty-eight, the struggle for Mexican independence began, led by a valiant priest, named Hidalgo. The Mexicans were heavily taxed by Spain, all commerce with other countries was forbidden, as well as all home manufacture. Hidalgo planted grape vines to make his own wine, and the Spanish government tore them up. Section 2—Saturday, February 23, 1929 WHO FREE ial, he was shot lled" Or From Pro by J.A. Wine must be bought from Spain. At this time, too, the Mexicans were called on to pay an additional tax of forty-five million dollars—an enormous sum those days—to Spain. Really the complaint that the American colonists had against King George was nothing in comparison with that that the Mexicans had against the king of Spain. GUERRERO DISTINGUISHES HIMSELF Hidalgo declared the independence of his country and called on all Mexicans to follow him. Among the first to respond was Guerrero. In the first battle Guerrero distinguished himself, and was made captain. Armed almost only with pitch forks the Mexicans, most of whom, like Guerrero, came from the lowest element, were victorious. Among the number was also another Negro who is described by Villasenor, Mexican historian, as being "very black, of horrible appearance and extraordinary bravery." His name was Juan del Carmen. Later he was made a colonel and became the close friend and supporter of Guerrero until killed in battle. The Mexicans were at first successful but finally gave way before the Spaniards. One by one the leaders, Hidalgo, Morelos, Allende, Aldama, Jiminiz, Mina, were captured and beheaded. Others accepted the king's pardon. All but one: Guerrero. "Forsaken by for- D MEXICO tune, betrayed, without money, without arms," says Villasenor, "with only his will power left, he was at this time of desolation and despair the only supporter of the cause of independence, causing to shine forth his valor, prudence, profound sagacity, indefatigable activity, and heroic constancy." "Even in the darkest days of the long revolution," says Rives, "he was the leader of a little body of unconquered men, who kept alive the cause of independence." The government even sent his father, Pedro, to plead with him, offering him lands and wealth, but Guerrero was firm. He had pledged himself not to rest until the hated Spaniard was driven into the sea. He never spared the life of a Spaniard nor asked for mercy from one. GUERRERO WINS TWO BATTLES Finally the Spaniards sent Gen. Iturbide after him. Guerrero whipped Iturbide in two battles. Iturbide had high ambitions. He wanted to rule Mexico. He had bought up the army, but Guerrero was in his way. He arranged with Guerrero for a parley, during which he told Guerrero that he had had a change of heart; that he believed the Mexicans were right, and would come over to them if Guerrero would side with him. The latter, placing full faith in him, agreed. (Continued on page 4) Clean, Wholesome and Refreshing Foreign Advertising Representatives; W. B. Ziff Co., 608 S. Dearborn St., Calgary, III.

Amelia Earheart When I approached ‘her (she visit- ed Pittsburgh again a few weeks ago) stammering something like “presumptious,” she laughingly ban- ished my awkwardness, “Not at ail, not at all,” she assured me. “I am interested in quite a few things and one of them happens to be your race.” i After that it was comparatively easy. “I shall be very glad indeed if one word of mine is accepted by your race as a sincere token of my faith in its ability to do the worthwhile things,” she began. Here was my cue although I had in mind to reserve it for the end of our talk. “Then Capability regardless of col- or—you would deny no one an even break?" I stammered, “Certainly not. The capability of the individual only should be con- sidered.” ~ “Well, it is-gratifying to know that you do not believe achievements of distinction serve to” unbalance us.” “Why I do not see how. distin- guished achievement could unsettle the Negro race. Rather, achievement ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION should be an inspiration,’ she an- swered, and it was plain that my statement had been a surprise. But I had a big word in mind aud here was my appointed time. “Miss Earheart, what do you think of discrimination?” “Discrimination in general I think unfair!” she exclaimed. “However,” she continued slowly, “I am not enough of a biologist to say defin- itely whether discrimination against intermarriage is justifiable.” We dropped that® angle _immedi- ately. * By that time I was thinking of how she had reached England, and of Lindbergh and others. I was thinking most of Hubert Julian, though, the young-Negro man |who wants to and can't. | “Tl understand, Miss Earheart, that not a single American has made this ocean ‘flight unfinanced by outside interests. Would you eommend the able one or ones who could if they only wevld come to assistance of Hubert Julian, our lcensed pilot who has been wanting to test his aerial ability across the big waters so long?” : “Now, understand me_ correctly,” she began, “I do not advocate stunt flying. If anything is to be proved, it would not matter to me who the pilot was, if he has the ability. Colonel Lindbergh proved the pos- sibility of crossing the ocean in a plane. The Friendship flight, we thought demonstrated the feasibility of using the tri-motored pontooned plane. It was in Commander Byrd's words, ‘the next step in aviation.’ The flight {s the thing, the purpose behind it, not the personnel for over water fiying.” She had not answered my question C PS \ f Fi 4 7 ae ee = ae f oN ia a W-i8 =) h Soft, Silky, Long, Wavy| ; By Using | POMADE HAIR DRESSING Herons POMADE yee ek Steelghtens our wir: seobborn, ual hair causing it to grow long, soft, fluffy, No hot i irons necessary.

The NEGRO Who FREED MEXICO (Continued from page 1) The Spanish government yielded. Guerrero, who sought nothing for himself, named Iturbide head of the Mexican republic. But no sooner had Iturbide got into power than he began to show his true colors. What he did then is probably the cause of all the disturbance that exists in Mexico even to this day. A royalist at heart, Iturbide named himself emperor and continued the oppression of the masses. Guerrero, whose great aim was the liberation of the masses, declared war against Iturbide, who was captured and executed. A new president was elected, with Guerrero vice-president With the Spaniards now out, the struggle in Mexico took another shape: that between the landed classes and the masses. Freemasonry at this time invading Mexico, the poor took the York rites, and the rich the Scottish rites. Guerrero, always a man of the common people, was named head of the York lodge. The time came for another election, with two candidates for the presidency: Guerrero and Pedraza. Every effort was made by the common people to elect Guerrero, while the rich did their best for Pedraza. Finally 10 legislators declared for Pedraza, electing him. Guerrero got only eight. There was no manhood suffrage. At this news revolt broke out all over the nation, and a proclamation was issued naming Guerrero president. It ran: "The name of the hero of the south is repeated with unspeakable enthusiasm. His valor and constancy combined have engraved themselves upon the hearts of the Mexican people. He is the image of their felicity. They wish to confide to him the delicate and sacred task of executive power." MADE PRESIDENT Three days later the government surrendered, offering to make Guerrero minister of war. But the people wanted him as head of the nation, and the Mexican congress passed a law making him so. In April, 1825, he was inaugurated. Guerro at once set about improving the condition of the masses, composed largely of Indians, half-breeds, and a small percentage of Negroes. He ordered schools to be built, established free libraries, declared religious liberty—reading had been forbidden; established a coinage suspended the death penalty, and took other steps far in advance of his time. But that was not all. Guerroro had been inspired by the American constitution. But he went further. He ordered the immediate liberation of every slave in the republic. A reading of the Mexican constitution, much of it the work of Guerrero, shows it to be as liberal as any that was ever penned. One of its clauses reads: "All inhabitants, whether white, Here is a remarkable iron supply, strengthens the muscles and increases the tired feeling and weakness and you feel peppy and full.

MAKE-MAN TABLETS The Wonder Iron Tonic African or Indian, are qualified to hold office." Guerrero's emancipation proclamation was carried into effect almost without disturbance, because chattel slaves were comparatively few. In one part of the republic, however, it made a tremendous stir, and that was Texas. The Texans were Americans who had migrated into Mexico, headed by Stephen Austin. They had come there to escape anti-slavery agitation in the United States. Now they had jumped from the frying pan into the fire. Guerrero, however, was unable to enforce his decree in Texas. He was busy fighting his enemies in the capital, but the good work he had started bore fruit, and the slaves there were freed a few years later. Guerrero's emancipation proclamation, it must be noted, was more effective than Lincoln's Lincoln freed only those slaves in territory held by the Confederates. The American slaves were really freed by the 13th amendment, which was passed after Lincoln's death. Had Lincoln lived it is extremely doubtful whether the slaves would have been freed when they were. Lincoln was a conciliator, not a destroyer of slavery, and had he lived the slaves would, in all probability, have been held another five or six years in apprenticeship to their masters, as had been the case in all the British dominions, in Brazil, and elsewhere. GREATER THAN LINCOLN Hence, Guerrero was something more than a Lincoln. He was, too, as beautiful a character as Lincoln. Guerrero sought nothing for himself.

He adds: "He was possessed of a gentleness and magnetism that inspired love among his adherents; while his swarthy face, resonant voice and flashing eye made him an object of profound respect even among his enemies." "Not even his enemies," says George Creel, "denied his patriotism, courage and incorruptible honesty." Guerrero, in power, had formidable enemies among the landed classes.

THE NEGRO WHO FREED MEXICO GUERRERO IS CAPTURED Fleeing to the mountains, Guerrero gathered an army, and for four years defeated every force sent against him, although he had been weakened by a ball that had lodged in his chest while fighting Iturbide. Finally his rival, Gen. Bustamente, bribed a ship captain, named Picaluga, to entice Guerrero on his ship and sail off with him. Picaluga and Guerrero were old friends. Accepting the invitation to come on board, Guerrero was taken to a port and handed over to Bustamente. After a mock trial, he was shot and killed. At news of his death a wave of anger swept over the Mexican people. Bustamente was driven from the presidency and was forced to flee for his life. Picaluga, who had received $15,000 for his treachery—a great sum in those days—was sentenced to death. A pension was paid Guerrero's widow; honors were conferred on the rest of his family; cities and a state were named in his honor; and in 1842 his body was removed to Mexico City, where the highest honors were paid his memory. Every historian has condemned his execution. His failures, says one writer, proceeded from his virtues. (THE END.) (Be sure to read the next article in this stirring and instructive series.) Amelia Earhart (Continued from Page 2) vealed by aerial exploits I most certainly would share the glory of any Negro who brought it to the light. Beverie Coleman? Bessie Coleman? Silence. Miss Earheart is willing to list Bessie Coleman as the pioneer of the air, the winged martyr with a purpose. And so we passed the time. Let me just here impress this important fact; Amelia Earheart is the type of young American womanhood that boldly flaunts the Jeffersonian banner," all men are created equal," without reservations. There is none of the "better than thou" in her make-up. To quote her exact closing remarks: "No doors are closed to ability once demonstrated, although the difficulty, particularly sometimes (and I actually believe she realized that WE are the 'sometimes') lies in getting to demonstrate it. "The same things hamper all members of the human race," she ologically better than we are today." I was thanking her and leaving, trying to do both gracefully, and wondering if the air could ever contribute to my uncertain composures as it or something else had done for Amelia Earheart. "It has been nice to meet you," she smiled. "My secretary will send you an autographed photograph sometime, soon. And tell your people that I believe them capable of accomplishing in aviation the same as they have done and are doing in other pursuits. Good bye." MARRIED WORRIED. UPSET?

Instead of sitting and dreaming of how he might some day be a success he determined that he would be one. He used his will power. He said to himself, "I will," and meant it.
