Later in August, DR.. Franklin

as physically fit, he awaited no.

notice was received, h. finally wiz

Puzzled by this apparent con-

Bureau a letter Immediately, and
on September Is received letter
which ad ed no information to
that contained in the telegram,
The letter merely states "A re-

DR.. Franklin, who is light in
complexion, said that the only pos
sible reason he could imagine for
the reversal Of opinion Ivy the Navy
department on his fitness was that
somewhere in going over his re-
cord the Navy found cut that he
was actually a Negro.
By its actions in the case, the
Navy once more demonstrates that
it is determined to prevent the
enlistment of any Negro above
the rank of mess attendant.

action took place, had been book

passed indefinitely in his case. In
statement to The PRESS, Tuck
CT admitted that he had a pistol,
hut that he was merely protect
ing his place of business and him
self, and that he was not intending
to kill anyone. He says that the
history of the whole affair could
probably be traced back several
weeks ago when police arres'
soldiers in the alley running along
side his place for gambling. Stat
ing that the soldiers who were di-
rectly responsible for the hrawl
were quite SOBER" Tucker des-
cribed their actions which led up
to the riot as both insane and con
temptuous and that he was forced
to summon police aid in order to
protect his place and customers.
Soldiers Blame Civilians
Soldiers, on the other hand say
that the civilians were directly re-
sponsible for the whole affair and
that anything they might have
done was in "self defense" An i'm
mediate investigation was held at
Camp Robinson to determine whe-
Their further disciplinary action
would be taken against the COM
pany of troops involved. Col. Fair
child, camp commander, stated that
only about so men of the COM
pany could be held responsible
/ for direct participation. In the
meantime, the entire company was
ordered to quarters under con-
finement which will probably last
for the duration of their stay here
(this company is scheduled back to

this was an engineers unit, only

Property Damage Great
Wanton destruction of private

ing Of several large plate glass

The company was assigned tenn

Until last night, the behaviour
had been exemplary, Col Fair
child said.
He said a check of the company
last night disclosed that only 80

police, about 100 troops of the
