ADVOCATE
Howard University students,
colored, set a fine example for
others to follow when they went
on a strike against eompulsory
military training the other day.
Let the war lords ami those who
want to piek a squabble with some
foreign nation, do thw training
and the fighting, too.
They’re
the only ones who get anything
out of war. It'a about time peo
ple come to their senses, if men
refuse to tram and fight, war will
automatically outlaw itself.

Leave It to the Women
It is refreshing lo say the least when
we read ever so often of American
colored people with backbone enough
to property resent insult
As in the
case of the colored women m W ash
ington. D. C. The foreign delegation
can go back to their homes with a
slight idea of what it means to he black
in America, and the real conditions
which exist towards the blacks in the
land of the free and the home of the
brave. Leave it to the women. They
know when they are insulted and they
know how to resent it too.
