FRAME CODE FOR AFRICA
Rev. W. II. Jernagin Assists in
Drafting Resolutions Submitted
to Peace Conference.
BY HARRY HANSEN.
Cabiegram to The Evening Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1919.

PARIS. France, February "a The
Pa1-African congress has forwarded to
the peace conference resolutions calling
for the esta bIishmeut by the allied and
associated nations of a code of laws for
the International protection of the ma
tives of Africa and also the establish
ment of a permanent bureau of the
league of nations to oversee the pofti-
cal, social and economic welfare of the
natives; also the rights of the natives
to participate in their government as
fast as their educa ton permits, with
the view that eventually Africa shalt
be ruled by the consent OF the Afri-
cans.
Further, the resolutions propose that
The land and resources shall be held in
trust for the natives. that concessions
be regulated to prevent the exploitation
OF the natives, and that schools be de-
yeloped. They demand of the league OF
nG tious greater security of lasting prop
eftE and equitable representation in All
the international institutions OF the
l. Ggue Of nations.
These resolutions were adopted after
a series of meetings a which W L. B.
Dubois first presented resolutions crit
icising the British control of land in
Africa and demanding that the land
he neiQ IN trust Tor 1be natives, Jiidt
schools be established and that prop
erty rights be recognized throughout
Africa.
This brought a protest from the
French negroes, who were certain that
France was treating the negro equi-
tably. giving him rights practically on
a par with the whites. The final reso-
luton was couched in more general
terms and was reported by the COM
mittee which is made UP of Roscoe

the 165th on the other.
when the troops We're withdrawn
from the front line only patrols were
left. On my regiments front, instead
of 1,600 men only S volunteers were
left. They were left in specially re-
inforced trenches with signal rockets,
gas shells and a few machine guns.
Shells Fall on Empty Trenches.
And so the German fire fell on these
front-lin trenoses for FIVE hours and
twenty-five minutes-and those shells
fell on empty trenches, except for
those patrols who stayed there eX-
pecting to be killed, but who. strange
ly enough. practically all came back
to us in the morning.
when the hour for the German iu
fantry attack came they set off the
gas bombs and the signal rockets
Our artillery saw the signal rockets
and cut loose on the massed German
infantry.
The German masses were literally
lery FIRE. and the gas shells our hoys
had left smothered them With the
deadly mustard gas

second lines. our boys sac on the
plrarets of the trenches and watched
the snow.
But on the other end they did get
through. They crashed into the Rain
bow Division, and the i65th met them
hand to- hand in some OF the most
terrible lighting of the war---fighring
fit for that terrible battle.
Gen. Gouraud's army stopped the
German rush, and in an address TO his
troops Gen. Gouraud pointed out that
the American troops in his army were
my little old 369th, the 165th and 9TH

tents. Most OF the cars burned were
of the soc type, old mandrake cars.
Five houses fronting on 4th street.
behind which lies the barn, were Sc
1iously endangered by the flames.
