Z5.-Wherever American negroes
have appeared in the occupied zone
they have attracted great attention.
In Coblenz and other points in the
early days of occupation it was ne
cessary for the military police to en-

According to discharged German
soldier, the German army early in
the war offered reward of 400
marks for the capture alive of each
negro. He said that throughout the
war. German soldiers lived in terror
of the negro soldier and that 1t was
to overcome this fear that the re-
ward was offered.
One evening a scouting party Of
ten soldiers, including the discharged
soldier, encountered patrol OF two
French negroes. Four of the Ger
mans were killed, and one of the ne
groes escaped, but the other was cap
tupred and the six Germans who liv-
