Davis Assigned

Washington, Jan. 13-Brig. Gen.
Benjamin o. Davis who became
the first Negro General in the
United States army has at long
last been assigned to duty to the
Fourth Cavalry Brigade at Fort
Riley Kansas. The men in this re-
giment are all Negroes but no Ne
gro officers.
Press dispatches indicated the
Negroes of this regiment had rails
ed objections to the coming of
Gen. Davis.
General Davis was promoted to
his present position by President
Roosevelt last October, but was
given no assignment until the
above was released.
Most Of the old soldiers and
non-ocmmissioned officers will not
welcome General Davis when he
comes,n said writer. The old sol
diers and non-commissioned Off
GERS stated, I'VE fare a hundred
times better under white officers
than we would under General Da-
WIS.,"
Read on and weep.
For almost two decades, the
Ninth and Tenth Cavalrymen were
little more than uniformed cham
bermaids, bootblacks, stable-hands
and flunkies for white officers and
units, the Ninth being restored to
active duty status only last Au-
gust.
During the intervening years,
white commissioned officers care
fully selected and cultivated a mob
of semi-illiterate colored non-com-
missioned officers who received
special privileges in return. for de-
priving other Negro soldiers Of the
few favorable advantages granted
the race by the War Department.
These men, and the privates who
have also gone along with them to
obtain special favors, are the ones
who are opposed to General Davis
as their commanding officer.

ID. Millikin Sets
Pace For Mayor

Earl Millikin, a candidate for
mayor, does not have to rely sole
ly on his record as a respected and
efficient county auditor for his
qualifications.
His after-office hours activities
the army reserves and amateur
sports-are right in there pitching
for him.
The fifty-year-old candidate, a
resident Of Seattle for twenty
years, believes that the chief role
of Seattle's new mayor will be to
keep the city in HARMONY with the
national defense program. The man
who can maintain friendly rela-
tons with defense officials, he
says, and who can work with both
labor and business can fill that
role most capably.
Because of my own training
in the army, first as a World War
private and now as captain in the
reserves, and because of my recent
experience in charge of registering
10000 selective service men in
King county, I feel I am the logi-
cal man for the job in times like
these" Millikin says. ST am ac-
quainted with defense officials. i

NAACP Takes Up Galloway Case After
Draft Board Denies Jim Grow Appeal

Chicago, Ill.-The local branch
of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie announced today that it will
take action in the case of Ernest
Galloway, whose request for ex-
emption from military service be-
cause 1.-THE United States Army de-
MES me or any other Negro the
right and opportunity to make an
equal contribution to the welfare
and defense of my country" was
denied in a draft board ruling here
Wednesday, January 8.
Galloway, educational director
of the Uniter Transport Service
Employees of America (Red Caps)
had his case officially referred to
the NAACP on January 8, &C
cording to Ira Williams, president
of the branch, after local draft
board No. 81 had also ruled that
the union official could not appeal
his case to the State Appeals
Board.
Admitting the truth of a state
ment made by Galloway January
/ in letter to the board point
ing out that "deep-seated preju-
dices," officials nevertheless ruled
in formal opinion handed down
January 8 that:
''It is the opinion of the board
that the social ills of which Mr..
Galloway complains are true, but
this board is without power to
remedy the said ills and affords
no forum for their discussion and
redress -. therefore the registrant
is hereby placed in Class la"
In a letter to other New York
headquarters of the NAACP, ex-
planning the development of his
case from December 20, 1910 when
he received copy of the Selective
Service QUESTIONABLE from the
board, up to the present time, Cal
loway said:
"In filling out the QUESTIONABLE,
I indicated that I was a conscien-
tous objector and in doing this
attempted to amplify for the board
the possible trend my objections
might take. did this in the form
of drawing a line from the phrase
religious training and Beliefs to
the margin of the page and indi-
Gated certain social concepts which
were my intention to incorporate
into religious training and beliefs. y
I placed a check in both squares
to indicate my unwillingness to
serve in any capacity. Also an in
formal statement was attached to
the QUESTIONABLE (not a sworn af-
fidavit) outlining certain racial lin
equalities existing in the armed
forces.
