By Charles A. Starks.

They go! These sons and brothers of ours.
And by ha zen, they go forth with every blessing and hope which
W e can bestow upon them! They are ours, heart and soul, blood and
blood, friends, all of them!
They are Americans, good loyal Americans!
They are also Negroes. Being Negroes their unsweringness to
duty, their bravery in battle and their loyalty to the flag and country
is assured.
To be a Black man today is to be affiliated with a race whose
National garment is free from the filth, corruption and infection of
tatOrism. -
In the terrible tensity which holds and grips the warburdened
Nations; when suspicion of disoyalty rests upon many; when crime
against the interest of this country is prevalent in the winds; when
the very waters running through common channels to our hydrants
is polluted by The poisoning hand which would murder the innocent
and unsuspecting, then we may turn to the Black man, known to be
immune from such acts, and find him me hundred per cent safe.
This being true the COLOR of his face at the portal of patriotism
becomes his bond.
Then to our Black boys of Kansas City and Eighteenth Street,
we are proud of you. You are o X. with us. The fates have picked
you from the draft to shoulder armsfor your country. We believe
you will prove the true sons of destiny. Goodbye! And God speed
you to the ranks of honor, to your Black felowmen over the seas
who have preceded you-there to win the glories of a new day
Young men, goodbye, and God bless you.
