of Soldier-Son's
Funeral From Red Cross

One of the gre; st services rem
dered by the Red Cross in France
is the communication service, and
John A. Rohrer, 1912 Boas street,
bears witness to this fact. A short
while ago MI. Rohrer received a
letter from one of the women in
charge of this section telling him of
the burial of his son in Luxem-
bourg. ]. Roscoe Rohrer, Eleventh
Infantry, Fifth Regular Division,
died on April 8 from a fractured
skull. His regiment held services
for him and gave him a military
funeral. The letter received by his
father was written from Walter
DANCE, about twenty kilometers from
the City of Luxembourg, where the
Fifth Division headquarters was To-
Gated.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
THE G SOLDIER

To the Editor of the Telegraph:
After listening carefully to of
our brave colored soldiers who serv-
ed in the of his country in
this terrible conflict that vas go
ing on to make the world safe for
democracy, after L returned to my
home L began to think to myself and
wonder If God is pleased with this
old world of ours and how long our
race would have to suffer injustice,
segregation and discrimination. Now
our dear boys eve call them dear be-
cause they are brave and true heart
ed Americans) have shown by their
manly courage when this country
was calling for volunteers that they
are true-hearted men,. They offered
their service, they wanted to show
to h world that they were men
with hearts and brain and were will
ing to lay down their young lives for
their country.
They learned that colored men had
not been accepted for the Army as
yet. However, as time went on, the
draft law was passed. There vas
no question to color when it came
their turn to be called to serve this
country. The Negro did not hest
tate, but willingly and bravely
marched to his country's call.
Wnen we h0uBh or u Negro boys,
those brave sons of Ham,, we sisters,
wives, mothers and sweethearts did
what we could at home. We saved
food, did Red Cross work, bought
Liberty Bonds, and prayed for the
return of u American troops with
honors. With all this are right
thinking people of America going to
allow our heroes to be treated I'M
fairly; will America, this great land
of the free, allow one of our great
and noble heroes to have lost their
lives in vain? No, they bled and
died to help make this world safe
for democracy; a safe place for all
men, all races, regardless of creed
or color.
Now let us see to it that the same
thing they were fighting for in France
exists over here in America. l would
of it's Negro soldiers. I am proud
because l belong to a ace that never
had or has no traitors or spies. We
have been trodden upon, deprived of
many privileges, but yet with all of
this we are true to our country, true
because this is the country of our
birth. 1 believe that God in his own
time will so put it into the hearts
of III Americans to give the Negro
his rights, treat him fairly and
give him a chance. Don't despise
him because of the color of his skin;
God made him; he is human. Let
him live, give him his rights. he
deserves it.
