I am sorry, but I cannot reconcile myself to the popular belief that white
nations capture colored nations for the benevolent purpose of uplifting
them. Great Britain and France and all other countries, even our own, may
have an altruistic motite_in controllinrcountries populated by colored races,
but it will require more eVidanc,e than has thus far been produced. Anyone
with poor eyesight can gee that the day is coming when England will be in
for a bad time with the natives-'of India;. and how long will either Japan
or China continue to-.permit the whites to assume an arrogant position of
superiority without some sort of definite protest? So we can go all over
the world and find an ever growing resentment that is slowly crystallizing
into something more than speech Making,- airainet the domination of the
whites. A day of reckoning is coming. It is well that such organizations
as the British Church Conference should give public utterance to these
thoughts which are in the minds of more than care to admit their. presence.
There are fabrics of a luxury not

They are individual coats — the
