1.-THE NEGRO ARTILLERY BRIL-
GAOE."

Address by General John H. Sher-
burne, Commander of the 167th Artil.
lery OF the 92nd Division, at Mass
Meeting, Monday, May 5, 8 P. NJ, Car
negie Hall opening National Confer
ence 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 color,
ed soldier are too we'll known to need
comment, but until the German war
their service had been in the infantry
and cavalry arms ard they had never
served as artillery either in the Amer
lean army or in any other army. When
l was assigned to the 18th Field Ar
tillery Brigade the artillery authori-
ties of the eX~peditionary force were
frank in saying that they considered
the experiment an impossibility and l
joined the brigade with a sad heart
and a full certainty that the jaws of
the trap had at last closed upon me.
Even the ever kind French friends
shock their heads in doubt.
But after the first day with the
brigade my barometer began to go up.
The first impression was the marvel,
lous spirit of the men, their neatness
] Of paarann tIair ,f1ffopy ,,rta nc a
and their discipline was most striking,
and they were so earnest in their
desire to learn and excel.
The brigade never failed to do cred.
itably any task it was called upon to
do, and many appTeciative and flat,
tering things were said about it by the
military authorities who observed its
work. Perhaps the best testimony
however, is the fact that when the in
telligence officer of the German divi
sion opposite came into our lines at
the close of hostilities, he refused tc
believe that the artillery supporting
the colored infantry was not French
artillery.
But perhaps beyond and above the
performance of the merely technical
duties was the splendid quality of the
morale of the brigade. The courage
of the men under fire was without
criticism. The men looked for leader.
ship but they did not show fear and
were always ready to do what they
were called upon for. In some in,
stances gun crews and telephone line,
men showed a very notable courage
and determination under fire.
At all times and under all condl'
tons the men showed a fine cheerful
ness. Their conduct was almost flaw,
less, and thew left each billet with
the good will and affection of the
French civilians.
I canno pay too high a tribute to
the splendid spirit of both officers
and men of the brigade. The officers
gave themselves to their task in the
fullest measure, and the cherit OF
the brigade's achievement is in a large
part due to their work and especially
to Colonels ONeil of the 349th, Pros.
ser of the 350th, Carpenter of the
351st and Andrus of the Ammunition
Train, but their inspiration was the
spirit of the men who have shown
throughout an eagerness to learn, a
determination to excel and a fidelity
to the rules and ideals Of military ser
vice ~uneuqalled in my experience and
measuring up TO the highest ideal OF
! American patriotism.

STRIKERS AGAINST BIG 0OOS
All Powers Of State and Industry
Ranged Against Workers.

Pittsburgh.-As the gigantic con-
test between capital and labor, in
volved In the steel strike, proceeds
from day to day, one thing is abso-
lutely clear: every power outside that
of labor is united to crush the at
tempt of the steel workers to better
their conditions through collective
bargaining.
The money kings were the first to
speak: J. Pierpont Morgan sounded
tho keynote for them when he con-
graduated Judge Gary upon his part
in the struggle.
Next followed the political kings
and kinglets. Governor Sproul of
Pennsylvania has unqualifledly rang.
ed himself on the side of capitalism
by upholding the terrorism of the
state cossacks in forbidding the hold.
ing Of public meetings In certain sec.
