36oth Infantry of New York City, the
only Negro regiment in the New YORK
State National Guard at least has a
Negro in command with the appoint

was created by a special act OF the

Mess Line

Things are beginning to look UP Tor
the military minded Negro, as events
of the past week will indicate.
First comes news of the appointment
of colored Colonel, Benjamin y.
Davis, to head the 369th INT, New
York National Guard. This is the
first appointment of this rank to the
famous Black Tiger unit of world war
fame, that our group can boast.
A part of the famous 93rd provision
al division during the world war, this
outfit was the first of colored troops
70 enter the lines, and was the first OF
all units to reach the Rhine, when the
last offensive broke the morale OF Ger
many.
Its sons were the first of our group
TO receive military honors for bravery
under fire, and as one reward for their
daring, they made a lasting friend Tor
the race, in the person Of Major Ham
ilton Fish, New York Congressman,
who is sometimes known in military
circles as the godfather" of all col
ored world war veterans. Illinois
370th Infantry, sister unit to the New
Workers, has boasted colored colonel
for years, and was the only Negro or.
ganization to be led in battle by Ne
gro. the late Colonel Franklin Denison,
who retired as Brigadier General.
Second news of interest comes from
Washington, where in a recent confer
ence, Mr.. Roosevelt, it is claimed, ex-
pressed a sympathetic attitude toward
the creation of Negro Division.
The regular army has been repre-
scented for years, by four Negro units,
two of calvary, two of infantry, who
wrote records now read with pride by
Solored students of Negro military his
tory. In the Indian wars of the early
west, in Spanish American activities
In the Philippines, all know the story
1t was from these four units, thai
most of the outstanding Negro officer:
of the world war were drawn.
The page is not one of continued
glory, though made sweet by whit
mans appreciation, for while thes
BOYS served their nation on one ham
they were forced to fight their wa,
down the years with hostile nativ
whites who were continually trying t
embarass and harass them.
The twenty fifth Infantry had it
Brownsville, the twenty fourth had it
Houston. Veterans of the other tw
regiments tell of pitched battles her
and there, nor were these all. Their
were battles of heroic proportions dui
ing the seventies and eighties for an
bilious followers of hate often believe
their leaders when they were told tn;
all Negroes would run.
It was not all blood and thundt
though, this lot of the black man
uniform, for when Negro troops wei
ordered to leave Fort Ethan AlleI
u Vermont, civilians petitioned the w;
department to leave them remain, ar
we have found little in the records
conclude that Negro troops Jared ba'
ly during their stay at Fort Snelhn
Weighed in the balance after II
passing of years, it speaks well for OF
/ troopers, that the President would gi
4 ear to a plea that might more tn;
double our forces, and by the gestu
give high class positions to host
Negro soldiers and civilians.

Pavement Completed
To Funnagusha Bridge

1t won't be long now before the Lex
ington and Tchula people can swap visits
with each other in a few minutes over
the new paved road. Work Of pouring
concrete reached Funnagusha creek
then made by the contractors for NOV
ing their base of operations to Tchula
where the pavement will start and come
back to join at Funnagusha. Stock piles
have been made of sand and gravel at
the base Of Chenoah hill.
The work crew. inspectors and engi-
neers, were all glad to get through at
Funnagusha hill as this stretch of road
caused plenty of extra work as the
curves were widened and the long drop
down the hill had the truck drivers
backing up hill to unload in the two
concrete mixers. The hill also came in
for added widening of pavement and as
this is the longest hill on the route with
plenty of curves, the workmen were all
glad to get back on straight paving
once more.
The incessant rains visiting the coun-
ty has caused some of the deep cuts on
this road to slough off rather badly, but
the road contractor has offset this by
mulching the hill sides with oat straw
preparatory to sodding. At Chenoah hill
where the deepest cut in Mississippi was
made, the rains constantly soaking the
oat straw has caused nice growth Of
green oats.
The paving on the Tchula-Lexington
road finds 80 miles completed with
about miles more to go before reach
ing the main street in Tchula. This is
hoped to be completed within the next
three weeks, but rains will form basis
of completion, as it has hindered and
handicapped the work so long, it has
been a by-word with the whole outfit,
when talking about how long it will
take.
