known as the "Greater Liberia Bill" .
Like the "Bilboe Bill", the "Longer
Bill" too went the way of the flesh
to the disappointment and irritations
of millions who sought the inalienable
right of self-determination !-o
peacefully return to the land from
which they were removed in chains .
Now Comes the Nix Bill
And now, "again and again and
again", comes the "Vix Bill-H TL
8965" embodying in essence the same
purpose as the previous two . It
tames at a time when a chronic j ok~less
population existed, created by au
efficient automation . It comes at a
time of burdensome taxation and an
increasing population of pour and
hunger.
And not only that, but it comes
during the shrewd building up of a
"white backlash", not without calculatcd
intention . The aftermath therefore,
in those troublesome times,
should compel the Congress to view
the logic of this new Bill .

tion of the Indians, the atomic bombing
of J apan along with the reported
killings in Vietnam, to insure selfdeterminatian
of South Vietnam,
ought not to close her eyes and ears
to the centuries of appeals to assist
those who seek self-determination in
other parts of the world .
Accustomed Opposition Appearing
Already, before the bill comes np
far consideration, a part of the Press
begins to question the wisdom of the
lslack man's moves . The decision here
is an indigenous matter and as sncis
is not open to question, since the
"white man's burden" is said to be
dead and buried.
As the proceedissg developed, it is
expected that those picl:ed leaders
with no indigenous mass following,
will as usual be instructed to oppose
the move .
The promoters of the steps to
change their present domicile i n
search of a way of life better suited
to their own likings, request every
one to support the Bill H R 896~i
by writing to their respective Congressmen
and Senators, requesting
them to support the Bill, not for
themselves but for you .
