No Color Distinction IN
Y. N. c. A. War Work

Eleven Negro women have just
sailed for France In the capacity OF
Y. NJ. G.. A. secretaries to add their
service to the work that ~ colored
men secretaries have been carrying
on for Negro soldiers since the be-
ginning OF the war.
Nine Of these women are college
graduates. Five OF them are school
teachers, one was in public educa.
tional work; two IN public heath
work; two bookkeepers, and one in
business.
The AZ colored men secretaries
abroad, as well as the 282 colOred
men secretaries who have done Y. M.
@. A. work In the American camps
show the same high standard OF edu-
cation and training seen IN these
women. A large proportion Of them
are ministers and teachers who are
prominent among their race.
These men, besides the comfort
and help that they have been to the
Negro troops, have been q powerful
factor for good among these SOL
diers. A typical example is the case
OF James G. Wiley, Negro Y M.
G. A. secretary from Pittsburgh who
worked at Camp Genicourt, Camr st.
Suppice, and Gievres, as well as serv.
ing with the 65th Infantry in the
Argonne. In the labor camps. In
