answer. II the French government

should America lag behind when we
have millions of the best Negro popu

that the government Will give us

Il CASE IN EQUITY.
An Editorial From The Southwestern
Christian Advocate, New Orleans
Robert IL. Jones, Editor.

The Negro has but one purpose
in the present national crisis and
that is to win the war and win ii full
ly, without any sort OF compromised
peace or bargain nc the peace table.
He is agreed and fully subscribes to
the program of the nation and gives
his last ounce OF devotion without
..!iver or question to the end that
the Huns may be dirk eli to their knees
and that the world shall be made safe
for all times. We answered the call
of the H.rst draft with an alacrity
that dumfoundod our cncrics and
brought our friends to their tiptoes.
We supplied our quota and more. The
only complaint that has arisen from
these loyal and faithful Negroes is
that more of them have not been able
to face the enemy in the very thick
est of the fight. So anxious We're our
Boys for tho fray that they spurncd
the positions that were practically
free from danger. They much PREFER
cd the spot where bullets thickest
fly.
In the draft that is now under way
we will respond in like manner as
we did in the first draft, and we are
glad Of the chance. But in all this
we are frank to say that we are just
men enough to he like other men and
desire for ourselves rs well as for our
postcrity. every advantage that comes
to men who offer themselves willing
ly on the altar Of our national life.
In the first draft we received some
thing like 1000 officers, when our
quota, figuring on n rough basis.
would have been something like g.
900. These officers in the line were
from the rank Of Second Lieutenant

have not made very large progress.
from the recognition given colored
troops in the Civil War, for even at
that time there were Negroes commits
stoned to the rank OF Captain. The
Negroes in this country. and we speak
now not Of small segment but for
the race Of twelve E.illion, feel that
the minimum request is that they
should have every line officer up to
the rank OF Captain. The 200 officers
who were given us in the first draft
have made good. The Negro regiment
that was decorated in it's entirety on
the Western front for it's bravery was
led by colored officers. And when
