cation on agricultural problems had
to do with the A. A. A. and bears the
date of 1886. I was one of the three

Dear Editor:
have been reading and enjoying
your paper ever since I have been
in the Army, and it has been of
special interest to me since I have
been in foreign service. But upon
reading the September 4th issue I
was very disappointed to read a re-
print of poem I recently wrote to
my mother which was copied err
roneously. Most of the lines from
the second paragraph on were badly
misplaced and the general thought
and rhythm of the poem was lost
by these mistakes. It is humiliating
to think that my friends in the
Twin Cities will read a piece of
work so badly misconstructed. En-
closed is correct copy of the same
poem and I would appreciate very
much if it were reprinted as is (if
this has not already been done).
My compliments to your con-
tinued attacks on local industry
for their discriminatory policy in Sc
curing labor. I sincerely hope that
through your efforts much can be
accomplished in placing qualified
Colored people especially in those
factories handling defense jobs and
contracts.
Kindly change the APO. num-
Der on this issue of the paper be-
ing sent to me in the future to No.
634 (instead of No. 1869 which will
facilitate their speedier delivery.
Thanking you remain,
Sincerely,
Richard Session.

Yes, Mr.. Lincoln!

Yes Mr.. Lincoln, Freedom still rings
Above the wrathful chaos that is war;
Beyond the clouds the mornings wings
Must bring the hope of morning star.
How strange that wars grim intermission
Unfolds mans destiny in newer sequel
And he finds it the old, old proposition,
That all men created equal!
=
Yes, Mr.. Lincoln, Democracy's still young,
Although another fourscore-sevenh hurry on,
Each hour we find one who has chung
To thinking he can hold another pawn
For ancient ills the worlds great cure
Is still the old remedy you gave
That none however strong can long endure
Then, now, or ever-half free, half slave!
Yes, Mr.. Lincoln, the slaves sons move
Onward, upward though chance be wrath,
Each to doubling world is bent to prove
That he is warranty to your great faith.
How very sad the sickened Earth runs red
With blood to light the tyrant's flare,
We would not clutter up the world with dead,
But free men must forever breathe free air!
Yes, Mr. Lincoln are slowly seeing,
If Liberty's to work, all men must share,
Drawn to one scale, the soul of every being,
Unbalance justice, the worlds snare.
Yes, Mr.. Lincoln Freedom still rings,
So deep, so clear, the souls of mutes
Breathe in the mighty glory that it brings,
And despots quake within their icy boots!
'y~ss

Yes, Mr.. Lincoln, ones prayer upon our lips,
The victory to bring peace earth again,
The might to vanquish all who would eclipse
Our Freedom with slavery's shameful stain.
And when this awful war is done,
with charity for all" in Liberty's rebirth,
And your great "Malice toward none,"
How we perish from the Earth!
Faithfully yours,
