THE COLORED RACE AND THE
WAR

There has been much specula-
ton as to the use to which the
colored men will be put in our
military preparations. There
was some reason to believe that
the Federal Government did not
contemplate their use as soldiers,
and even now nothing is known
of a definite scheme to place
them in military organizations.
However, it is known that a
camp will be organized for the
instruction of some colored men
in the duties of officers. This is
an indication that colored men
are to be used at least in some
degree.
The question is a serious one
from several points of view.
Certainly there is no reason why
a substantial proportion of the
citizens of the nation who enjoy
the blessings of it's government
in the same way as any other
citizens, and in many ways, such
as expenditures for education
far in excess of the amount con-
tributed for governmental sup
port, receive special benefits,
should not be called upon to
serve at the time of their coun-
try's great need. Further a
serious condition might we'll be
brought about by withdrawing a
large proportion of the younger
white men from a community
and permitting all the colored
men to remain.
On the other hand, sugges-
tions have been made that a
larger proportion of colored men
than of whites be taken, on the
ground that they could be spared
better, or that they be regularly
enlisted and put under military
discipline, but for the purpose of
doing agricultural and other
necessary work. Certainly, the
first suggestion cannot be taken
seriously. Fighting for ones
country is not burden to be
avoided and put on someone else.
but a privilege for those able to
do so. The white race would
suffer more by trying to shift its
responsibility than it will by
suffering the proportion of loss
which the war will entail upon
it.
The only solution is that the
colored man should be called
upon for military service in the
same proportion as the white
man. Difficult questions of or
ganization, discipline and use
will arise, but they are not be-
yond proper settlement. I'm
doubtedly, large proportion of
the officers would be white men,
and experience has shown that
colored men make excellent
soldiers when they are properly
led. This has been the exper-
fence of our own and other ma
tons. In a few cases, regiments
might be entirely differed by
men of their own race, if excep-
tional men could be found as
leaders,. Some of these could
