'tTHE NEGRO ARTILLERY BRIG
ADED

Address by General John Fl. Sherburne,
commander of the 167th Artillery of
the 92nd Division, at mass meeting,
Monday, May 5, 8 p. M, Carnegie
Hall, opening National Conference on
Lynching.
At this meeting, whose purpose is to
secure for the Negro fair play and equal
protection of the law, it is my privilege
as well as my duty to testify to the
high achievement of the Negro in a line
of military activity in which he had
never before been tried.
The fighting qualities of the coloored
soldier are too well known to need COM
ment, but until the German war their
service had been in the infantry and
cavalry arms and they had never served
as artillery either in the American army
or in any other army. When I was as
signed to the 167th Field Artillery Brig
ade the artillery authorities of the ex-
peditionary foroce were frank in saying
that they considered the experiment an
|impossibility and I joined the brigade
with a sad heart and full certainty
that the jaws Of the trap had at last
closed upon me. Even the ever kind
French friends shook their heads in
doubt.
But after the first day with the brig
ade my barometer began to go up. The
first impression was the marvellous spirit
of the men, their neatness of appear
ance, their military courtesy and their
discipline was most striking, and they
were 40 earnest in their desire to learn
and excel.
The brigade never failed to do credit
ably any task it was called upon TO DO,
and many appreciative and fattering
things were said about it by the mill
,tary authorities who observed its work.
Perhaps the best testimony, however, IS
the fact that when the intelligence offi-
Ger Of the German division opposite
came into our lines at the close OF hos
tilities, he refused to believe that the
.artillery supporting the colored lnfan-
try was not French artillery.
But perhaps beyond and above the
performance of the merely technical idu-
ties was the splendid quality of the
morale Of the brigade. The courage OF
the men under fire was without crltl-
cism. The men looked for leadership
but they did not show fear and were
always ready to do what they were
called upon for. In some instances gun
crews and telephone linesmen showed a
yery notable courage and determination
under fire. r..
At all times and under all conditions
the men showed a fine cheerfulness and
willingness. Their conduct was almost
flawless, and they left each billet with
the good will and affection Of the
French civilians. -
I cannot pay too high tribute to the
splendid spirit Of both officers and men
Of the brigade. The officers gave them
selves to their task in the fullest meas
.nre. and the credit Of the brigade s
achievement is in large part due to
their wor kand especially to Colonels
o Neil of the 349th, Prosser Of the
35oth, Carpenter Of the 351st and An
drus of the Ammunition Train, but their
inspiration was the spirit of the men
who have shown throughout an eager
ness to learn, determination to excei
and a fidelity to the rules and ideals OF
military service unequalled in by ex-
perience and measuring up to the high
est ideal Of American patriotism.
