NEGRO RECRUITS FOR
ARMY IS OPPOSED
SOUTHERN REPRESENTATIVES
TO FIGHT ENLISTMENT OF
BLACKS. BE A MENACE.

Southern congressman and sena-
tors are opposed to negroes as re-
cruits in the United States army or
navy. They will oppose President Will
sons proposal for universal compul-
sorry military service. 1t will be a
menace to the South after the war,
they say.
The plans that have been made by
the military committee of the House
call for negro recruits along with
white men. Representative Kahn, of
California, ranking Republican on
that committee, says that he will fight
for the inclusion of negro recruits.
Southern congressman have antici-
pated such a fight and are prepar-
ing for it.
Representative Whaley, of South
Carolina, expressed the Southern
view.
"We of the South cannot stand
for inclusion of negroes in a univer-
sal service plan. 1t would bring
down on the many districts of our
states, where negroes far exceed
whites in number, a danger greater
than any foreign foe" said Mr..
Whaley.
"The universal service plans, so
far prepared, propose following one
year of actual training, the men
would return to their homes, carry
ing their guns and equipment with
them, to remain members of the re-
serve, subject to a call to arms.
That would accomplish the very
thing which the South has always
fought against, the placing of arms
in the hands of a large number of
negroes and the training of them to
work together in organized units.
They would be a constant menace
to the people of the South"

Several Trainers With Iron Bars
Fail to Save Life of Ten Thou

BEAUMONT, GAIA fight to a
finish between two leopards occurred
on the circus ground at San Jacinto,
fourteen miles south of here.
The two animals were rivals for
leadership of the group of trained
leopards that furnish one of the fea-
ture acts. Their hatred for each
other had been manifest for several
days, but as their exhibitions of i'll
will had never gone beyond the limit
of growls and ugly glances their
trainers had not thought it necessary
to place them in separate cages.
Apparently maddened by the jolt
ing of the cage as it was being put
in place on the circus grounds. the
two leopards suddenly locked in dead
ly combat.
Armed with iron bars, circus en-
ployes worked desperately to separ-
ate the maddened beasts, but their
efforts were Intellectual. After a fight
for nearly half an hour one of the
beasts overpowered the other.
The dead animal was one of the
best educated and most highly train
ed leopards in captivity. 1t was val
ued at $4,000. It's opponent was so
badly wounded it's recovery is doubt
