Speaking to a capacity audience in

of Allen University ?ileehu.ed
that the greatest need, of the Negro
race today is an economic emancipation?an
emancipation that .will rid
the iace too of ignorance which 'is a
mighty handicap to any people. The
Negro has a passion for education
which hps been proven in his ability
arid distressing circumstances placed
upon him since the Civil \Vmc
ing the past sixty-eight years the Ne
gro who h:r-?l.u'e.n able U) retlniv his
? illill'l uey from ninety percent' when
' he merged from slavery to Utmost
k ten percent. He has many schools
?and colleges but he needs many more

was formerly clone, -r"The

Dr.. Sims paid high tribute toVtlie

"When we- look hack we. can
