In It's first year, the association was
confined to tho markets near home,
getting a few potatoes into the st.

mission merchants found themselves
unable to dispose Of the potatoes and
wired the association that only negroes

very low prices. The sales manager
went Immediately to Chicago and found
that the conditions were as represented.

ACHIEVEMENTS OF COLORED SOLDIERS

The following address of General
John H Sherburne of the 92nd Divi-

Colored soldiers under his command

directed against our boys overseas.
The address was delivered at the Ma.
tional Conference on Lynching held
at New York City on Monday and
Tuesday this week, and is reported
through the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People.
"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 line of military activity in which
he had never before been tried
"The fighting qualities of the Colored
soldier are too well known to need
comment, 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 Ameri-
can army or in any other army When

of the expeditionary force were frank
in saying that they considered the ex'
pertinent an impossibility and joined

certainty that the jaws of the trap had
at last closed upon me. Even the ever
kind French friends shook their heads
in doubt.

contribution to several newspapers.
former President William H. Taft de-
clares that the best friend of the Race
is the aristocratic white of the South;
that all the trouble comes from the
ignorant white. This may be true in
a sense, but there is a long way to

great convention will be held in Cleve-
land, Ohio, the Athens (Ga) Banner

clares:
"It is, indeed, unfortunate for the
Negroes of this nation to suffer from
the acts of such lawless leaders, who
are not real friends of the Negro, but
his most dangerous enemy. Such or
Examinations will work harm TO the Col

interest. The representative citizens
of the Negro Race, in this section of
the nation, will not indorse nor will
they join in promoting any such or
ganization which has for it's founda-
tion ruin and destruction for the Negro
Race. There is place in this nation
for the Negro; he can live happily, and
|lbe prosperous, if he so desires; the
white man of the South is his best
