that the most shameless things
are happening along the Rhine
the blame for which lies with
those who maintain these Colored
Troops.
We thank our guest, Miss Ray
Beveridge, most heartily that she
has travelled all the way from
Bavaria to come here in order to
place her experience of what is
happening on the Rhine at the
service of our national cause.
Before I call on the speaker I
would remark: In order that no

of the hostile press to imagine

Mrs Amalia Riley has re
quested the publication of
this article, we gladly coin
ply with her wish. The pa-
per was sent to Mrs Riley
by Mr. Hugo Heffter, the
following letter (translated
Do the English and Americans
who are the only ones who have
understood the nigger problem,
not realize what this will lead to
in the future? If they—under
military pressure—turn White Ci-
tizens out of their homes, in or-
der to set up there official bro- j
thels for the Blacks who can buy
there White Women for money.
This fact alone suffices to de-
prive the White race of the
world’s dominion. Do these go-
vernments not realize that they
are rendering it impossible in the
future for a White Woman to
accompony her husband to the co-
lonies" Do my countrymen not
know that our Women in the
South are thereby exposed to yet
more dangers than in the past ?

Mims Ray Beveridge began her
speech :
My dear Germans!
I blame not only the French
but all so called victorious Go-
vernments and especially my own
country where the Black Horror
has always been a menace to us
women. I blame America and
England that they have ever al-
lowed that black savages were
brought to Europe to kill their
Christian White Brethren.
I blame my countrymen that
they did not oppose vigorously.
We all know that the German
nation would never have laid
down their arms, if they had not
believed in Wilson’s 14 points. I
blame the civilized world that
they show complete indifference
to a bleeding, famished, enslaved
Germany. I blame mankind that
nothing is being done to restore
Justice and real Peace. I blame
the whole world for being so
shortsighted as to force the Ger-
mans into the arms of the terror
(»n the one side, and to abandon
on the other side their women,
daughters and sons to the brutal
lust of the Black Savages. But
Wilson promised and the German
people believed,—believed in his
empty phrases, and the niggers
are there! I

The mass protest meeting (es-
timated at 50,000 persons) which
had been called up by the Ham-
burg League at Sagebiels turned
out a gigantic manifestation of
powerful indignation against the
Black Horror. The big hall had
been provided, the white hall had
to be included and yet half an
hour before the beginning the
huge place had to be closed by
the police to prevent overcrowd-
ing. Many thousands waited for
admission in the street in vain
and had to return home bitterly
disappointed. The old Sagebiel
Building had to face during re-
cent years many an onrush at
patriotic meet bigs, yet never had
witnessed such a scene as last
Thursday.
The President of the League,
Pastor Voss, said in his introduc-
tion :
German men and women! IA
the name of the Hamburg Lea-
gue to protest against the Black
Horror I give you a hearty wel-
come. We are glad that our ex-
pectations have not been disap-
pointed, that you have come here
in thousands so that we can shout
our protest vigorously and em-
phatically into the world.
It is not a matter of party
here together. The subject stand-
ing for discussion today touches
every German without any dis-
tinction of party or creed. Who-
ever remains apathetic to the dis-
grace which is perpetrated on
us by the occupation of the
Rhinelands by colored French
soldiers, loses in my eyes, the
right of calling himself a Ger-
man. (Stormy applause.)
’ At the moment we are a na-
tion disarmed. But justly a Ger-
man-American has recently point-
ed out in a Hamburg paper that
our enemies themselves have plac-
ed two weapons into our hands
which we must make use of. until
they have given us relief. The
one is: rolling up the question as
to the guilt of the war. That
question has been discussed in
this hall a fortnight ago and I
hope that its discussion will ne-
ver rest until the atmosphere of
lies which hostile propaganda so
masterfully spread over the whole
world has been conquered by vic-
torious truth. (Great applause.)
The other weapon is to point
out the fact that the French Go-
vernment is using Coloured
Troops in order to control and
torment a nation of such culture
as the German nation. Even if
no transgressions—, no murders,
no violations, no crimes of assaul-
ting children, no harm in hygienic
and moral respect were oommit-
ted by these troops, the mere fact
of their presence on the Rhine
must fill us with just indignation
and must appear as an unparallel-
led blow to culture. But you
will learn during the evening
here) accompanying the
same.

Esteemed Mrs. Riley:
Many thanks for the large
package of newspapers you
sent me. This was certainly
a pleasant surprise.
Even the oldest issues
were read with greatest in-
terest and my thoughts
roamed back to the beauti-
ful Fredericksburg where I
once lived, and to Camp
Colorado, Ft. Mason, etc.
which at that time were ad-
joining Idian territory.
This is the saddest time
for Germany which is giv-
en into the hands of the
enemy without means of de-
fense, given over to French
revenge.
I am sending my best
wishes to you and yours for
a happy Christmas and a
prosperous New Year.
Would that the New Year
might bring different condi-
tions.
I am enclosing a speech of
Miss Beveridge’s, made at a
protest meeting at Hamburg
again.t the Black Horror in
the Rhine Country. Read
this and induce some Ameri-
can papers to reprint the
same.
I hope you are well.
The time of distress in
Germany is but beginning,
we suffer immensely and
F’ood and clothing are very
rare and prohibitive in
price.
With best wishes mid
kind regards.
Sincerely yours,
Hugo Heffter

rely any more upon the men, then
the Women of the "Whole World
must collaborate to free our sis-
ters in the occupied territory.
(Applause.)
I appeal to all the Women of
the World! I appeal to all men
still worthy of the name, Help!:
White Women, White girls
White boys are in danger daily,
hourly! And such danger will
exists as long as a single Black ,
is justified in exercising control
over Whites. Once more I appeal
to the German in the occupied
territory: Your weapons have,
been taken from you, but there
is always a rope and a tree. Take'
up the natural weapons used by
our men of the South: lynch!
(Applause.)
Hung every Black who assaults
the White race! Then let the
world decide whether you or the
French were to blame And even
if you have to die as martyrs,,
then you die as heros- worthy of
Germany. The American singer
Hutman told me once that he was
present at the burning of a live
Nigger at the stake. He says
that several officials looked on
and did not interfere with the
crowd carrying out their cruel
work. It lasted 40 minutes until
the shrieks of the victim ceased.
