Title	Rahming, Alex 1920-03-15
Abstract	Letter to Eugene V. Debs, 3/15/1920. Writes that he is happy today because Eugene V. Debs has agreed to become the Socialist Party's Presidential candidate in the upcoming election. Asks that God grant the workers sufficient intelligence to see the light and vote Eugene V. Debs into office. Tells Eugene V. Debs that he is a "colored man" that believes that the present system can only survive by encouraging prejudice "based upon religion, race" and "nationality." Says that no matter how "dumb" the people are that one day they will be forced to see the problem with supporting a regime that keeps them illiterate. Informs Eugene V. Debs that he appreciated Eugene V. Debs's article in the NEW YORK CALL titled "The American Negro." Expresses the hope that the "workers of color" will show their appreciation for Eugene V. Debs's frankness at the polls, including those in the Deep South who have been fed upon lies.
