❖--
Follows are the aims and purposes
of the League of Latin-American Cit-
izen (known as Lulac), which are
printed here for the Information of
those interested:
The aims and purposes of this or-
ganization are:
1. To develop within the members
of our race the best, -purest and most
perfect type of a true and loyal citi-
zen of the United States of America.
2. To eradicate from our body poli-
tic all intents and tendencies to estab-
lish discriminations among our fel-
low citizens on account of race, re-
ligion or social position as being con-
trary to the true spirit of democracy,
our Constitution and laws.
3. To use all the legal means at our
command to the end that all citizens
in our country may enjoy equal rights,
the equal protection of the laws of the
land and equal oportunities and privi-
leges.
4. The acquisition of the English
language, which is the official lan-
guage of our country, being necessary
for the enjoyment of our rights and
privileges, we declare it to be the offi-
cial language of this organization,
and we pledge ourselves to speak and
to teach the same to our children.
5. To define with absolute and un-
mistakable clearness our unquestiona-
ble loyalty to the ideals, principles
and citizenship of the United States
of America.
6. To assume complete responsibili-
ty for the education of our children as
to their rights and duties and the lan-
guage and customs of this country;
the latter in so far as they may be
good customs.
7. We solely declare, once and for
all, to maintain a sincere and respect-
ful reverence for our racial origin, of
which we are proud.
8. Secretly and openly, by all lawful
means at our command, we shall as-
sist in the education and guidance of
Latin-Americans and we shall protect
and defend their lives and interests
whenever necessary.
9. We shall destroy any attempt to
create racial prejudices against our
people, and any infamous stigma
which may be cast upon them, ana
we shall demand for them the respect
and prerogatives which the Constitu-
tion grants to us all.
10. Each of us considers himself
with equal responsibilities in our or-
ganization, to which we voluntarily
swear subordination and obedience.
11. We shall create a fund for oui
mutual protection, for the defense of
those of us who may be unjustly pro-
secuted and for the education and cul-
ture of our people.
12. This organization is not a. po-
litical club, but-as citizens we shall
participate in alL local, state and na-
tional political contests. However, in
doing so we shall ever bear in mind
the welfare of our people, and we dis-
regard and abjure, once and for all,
any personal obligation which is not
in harmony with these principles.
13. With our vote and influence we
shall indeavor to place in public office
men who show by their deeds, respect
and consideration for our people.
14. We shall select as our leaders
those among us who demonstrate by
their integrity and culture that they
are capable of guiding and directing
us properly.
15. We shall maintain publicity
means for the diffusion of these prin-
ciples and for the expansion and con-
solidation of this organization.
16. We shall pay our poll taxes as.
well as those of members of our fami-
lies in order that we may enjoy our
rights fully.
17. We shall diffuse our ideals by
means of the press, lectures and pam-
phlets.
18. We shall oppose any radical and
violent demonstration which may tend
to create conflicts and disturb the
peace and tranquillity of our country.
19. We shall have mutual respect
for our religious views and we shall
never refer to them in our institu-
tions.
20. We shall encourage the creation
of educational institutions for Latin-
Americans and we shall lend our sup-
port to those already in existence.
21. We shall endeavor to secure
equal representation for our people’on
juries and in the administration of our
governmental affairs.
22. We shall denounce every act of
peonage and mistreatment as well as
the employment of minor children ot
scholastic age.
23. We shall resist and attack ener-
getically all machinations tending to
prevent our social and political unifi-
cation.
24. We shall oppose any tendency to
separate our children in the schools
of this country.
25. We shall maintain statistics
which will guide our people with re-
spect to working and living conditions
and agricultural and commercial ac-
tivities in the various parts of our
country. J. B. MASCARRO.

Why, Professor!
Jane, the^ maid tapped timidly on
the professor’s study door and en-
tered.
“Gentleman in the hall wishes to
speak to you, sir,” she said.
The professor looked up from his
book.
“Tell him I’m out, Jane,” he said
brusquely.
“I did, sir,” she replied, “but he
won’t go.”
“What!” ejaculated her master an-
grily. “Send him in to me and I will
tell him myself.”

Just What Does 9
It All Mean to Mem
That is the question that naturally conies to your mind when
you think of or talk to your neighbors about the rather be-
wildering activities of the federal government in Washington.
Fragmentary news reports of congressional action or adminis-
tration policies often are confusing, but if you will read William
Bruckart’s interpretative WASHINGTON DIGEST, which is
published each week in this paper, you will know more, about
what all the moves on the capital checkerboard mean to you-
Through long service as a Washington correspondent, Mr.
Bruckart is particularly well qualified for this particular job.
He gives you an illuminating interpretation of what Congress
is doing or is expected to do, and what is happening or is
expected to happen in other departments of the government.
■ /^EAD the Bruckart letter every week _
■Hininniii i ■ m for an intelligent understanding of what SSS
is going on at the national capita!.
Landlady: “I’m very sorry the
chicken soup isn’t good. I explained
to the cook very carefully how to
make it, but perhaps she didn’t catch
the idea.”
Boarder: “It taste to me as if it
was the chicken she didn’t catch.”
Barber: “This is an excellent tonic,
Sir—grows hair miraculously fast."
Customer: “All right—grow me a
head of brown curly hair, cut it, close
back and sides, singe and shampoo itr
part it in the middle and hurry—I've
only 20 minutes.”
