deau, Missouri. | shall speak at
each one Of these conferences and
urge the election of Mr.. Willkie."
Bishop Williams has made it
clear that he was greatly pleased
with the ability and personality Of
the Republican nominee, that he
measures up, and that he is a real
American in whose hands can safe
ly be placed the affairs Of our Gov
eminent.
Three members of the Editorial
Staff of the Colorado Statesman,
a Colored newspaper published at
Denver, by appointment, also con-
ferred with Mr.. Willkie-M essrs.
IL. v. Dorsey, William M. Thalley
and Thomas e. Henderson. Their
report of the interview is an en-
thusiastic as the one made by
Bishop Williams.
Mr.. Willkie was then told that
the Negro is in reality "the for
gotten man" in the United States.
His answer was, 1.-THE forgotten
man will not be forgotten"
'Mr Willkie is of that splendid
sype of rugged sindividualism, a
man that America will love and
respect" the report finally con-
cludes.
This is the jubilant feeling
brought from every conference
with the nominee by Colored cit
liens who have talked with him,
before and since his nomination.
Mr.. Willkie has not been afraid
to meet the issues which bear down
upon Colored men and women in
every walk of life, and who find
their hopes and aspirations thwart-
ed and crushed by a sinister, I'M
democratic, un-American prejudice
on account of their color wherever
they turn, in Government, and in
their struggles to achieve full
rounded citizenship-the pride and
goal of every disadvantaged mi
nority group.
Compare Party Planks on Negro
In contrast with this attitude,
note the attitude of the present in
cumbent of the White House. The
Pittsburg Courier, a newspaper
that once followed the fortunes
of the New Deal, on it's front
page carries the Republican and
Democratic planks on The Negro
and asks that they be read and
compared.
Under the Republican plank, The
Courier publishes Mr.. WILKES
fortnight unevasive statements,
while under the Democratic plank
it sententiously remarks: THE
Democratic Candidate. our Presi-
dent, has not said one thing con-
corning Negro citizens during his
seven years in office. We now a
wait a statement from him since
he has secured the nomination for
third term"
Such a statement will hardly be
forthcoming, and if it should is
sue, it will appear as a self-serving
document, forced by the circum-
stances of the hour-and after
more than seven years of complete,
blank silence.

Letters To
The Editor
Believes In
Consumption
To The Northwest Enterprise

Why 1 am for compulsory Mi
litary Training: I served seven
years in the United States Army
in active military service. serv-
ed in the Philippine Instruction
from July 1899 to July, 1902, and
/ re-enlisted in Manila, p. l., and
was sent to Mindanoa, p. l., and
had active service during the first
Moro uprising until April, 1903;
and l finished my second enlist
ment in the U. S. during the
World War / served from May
1918 to March, 1919, on the MeM-
can Border under actual war con-
ditions excepting actual battles.
Like everyone who enters the
Army, unless he has attended a
military academy or college where
military science is taught, knew
nothing about a soldiers duties.
After a few weeks drill without
a rifle, I was sent to the Philip
pine Islands and had to walk five
miles unarmed to where my regi-
ment was stationed through a jun
gle full of instructors lying in
ambush, and it was a miracle that
we were not killed. The next
morning was issued a rifle and
one hundred rounds of ammunition,
and assigned my place in the
trenches.
My experience was typical of
thousands of young men and was
the contributing cause for many
casualties (inexperience). I was
lucky because I was sent to a Re-
gular Regiment, the 25th U. S. In
fantry. Those Volunteer Regi-
ments suffered more because of
the lack of experienced officers.
volunteered and re-enlisted
during the World War because the
U. S. Government was in need of
men with war experience to train
the millions of young men hastily
called to duty. Many were sent
to France and to the Navy in hos
tile waters without training. I was
accepted for active service, and I
had a wife and three children and
mother depending on me for sup
port. The U. S. Government made
extra allowances for all of them
that is how badly experienced
men and ex-service men were
needed. That was 10 years after
my first nhstment and l found
the same thing existed (lack of
trained soldiers).
Now, in my early sixties and
too old for active duty, we are fac
ing another crisis, and find that
the United States is unprepared
to properly defend itself because
we do not have enough experienced
men and munitions, planes, tanks
and guns. Forty one years later
(1S99-1940). I answered the call
of President VIM. Mckinley and
Woodrow Wilson for active duty,
and I am now willing to answer
the call of our Great President
Franklin D. Roosevelt in whatever
capacity the War Dept. desires.
I have a son who is studying
Military Science at the University
of Washington in order that he,
too, may serve his country pro-
perly trained. Eternal vigilance
and preparedness are the prices of
peace.
Yours for compulsory military

 Answer-Pure wheat flour bleach- ed with nitrogen peroxide loses the yellow color of the natural fat or oil in wheat, and absorbs certain amount of nitrous and nitric acids. Whether such bleaching impairs the nutritive quality or assimila- bility of the flour is questionable. I'd choose unbleached flour in pre- ference to bleached, in any circum- stance.

ANIMATED TOUCHES IN A YOUNG DRESS
PATTERN 118

Like a tWenty-one gun salute to the gay new season, this sprightly frock for sprite-sizes eleven-to-sev- enteen. Claire Tilden has designed Pattern 118 from the young angle with all the color and zest and nov city that slim figures show off so well. It's in princess style, which means smoothly molding lines, flip pant skirt flare and easy making, especially with the Sewing Guide on hand for helpful advice. Right in the limelight of style are those striking, button trimmed pockets stitched onto either side of the full skirt. And the attractively shaped yokes and crisp boW-tie top off the frock with a flourish. Use bright plaid for the pockets, yokes and bow, if you want a really exciting effect! Of course the style is be- coming in another version too, with pockets and bow omitted and per- haps a ruffle of lace about the yokes. But no matter how you look at it, this Claire Tilden newcomer will be the most compliment-Win- ming frock you've ever owned!
 Pattern 118 is cut in junior miss sizes II, 12. 13, IA, l5, 16 and IT. Size 13 requires 3-4 yards 35 inch fabric and 5-8 yard contrast.
