tied States Naval Academy at An
napolis, Md, and the United States
Military Academy at West Point.

trict descendents Of officers and
enlisted men in the Army and Ma
w, was disclosed in correspondence
between the Adjutant General Of
the United States Army and c. w.
Nimitz, acting chief of the Naval
Bureau and DR.. c. H. Wilson of
this city.
DR. Wilson, prompted by the an
nouncement appearing in the daily
and weekly press that one hundred
young men would be appointed by
President Roosevelt to the United
States Naval Academy and the
United States Military Academy,
wrote the President urging that he
include some Negroes in those APP
pointments. The letter to Presi-
dent Roosevelt was referred to the
War and Navy Departments with
aforementioned answer.
In reply to the Adjutant Cen
erals letter DR.. Wilson pointed out
that Major Walter H. Loving, an
ex-officer in the United States ar
my, now living in Oakland, Calf,
has a six foot son who is anxious
to enter West Point and upon a
military career but falls under that
category described as the general
lot of army officers son by the
General when he says that this
policy was adopted for the reason
that officers and enlisted men are
not in position to obtain appoint
ments from their senators and rep
resentatives."

CHECK LYNCH|NG;;
roosevelt TOLD

NEW YORK In telegram to
President Roosevelt yesterday, fol-
lowing the thirteenth lynching of
the year at Oxford, Mississippi-
and the eighth during the year in
Mississippi the NAACP asserted
that the senators who filigustered
against the Ccstigan- Wagner fed
eral anti-lynching bill last spring
lied and knew they were lying
when they claimed the states
could and would prevent lynchings
and punish the Iynchers." The
complete telegram follows:
within sight of the University
of Mississippi a mob at Oxford
yesterday perpetrated the thir-
teenth lynching of 1885. One may
be certain that there was grave
doubt of the guilt of Elwood Hig-
ginbotham, the Negro farmer who
was lynched, when a white jury
delayed in finding him guilty. Ac-
ton of mob in Selling victim in
open daylight as jury deliberated,
with apparently no resistance ut
all from law enforcement officials,
is anarchy and nothing else. 1t is
certain nothing will be done by
Mississippi authorities to punish
lynchers. This clearly proves fill
busters against Costigan-Wagner
bill during last session of Congress
lied and knew they were lying
when they claimed states could
and would prevent lynchings and
punish the lynchers. Does Ameri-
ca by its callous indifference and
criminal inaction against lynchers
mean to say to prospective lynch
ing victims and their friends that
they can expect no hope of protec-
ton from Federal or State Gov
eminent and thus must resort to
physical force to check anarchic
mobs?"
