Senior golfers often are referred

But the contributions Of these

They also kick in with some good

CAN'T JUSTIFY
ABUSE, BENDER
DECLARES
Cites Railroad Incident
Before United States
Representatives

In a speech made on the floo:
Of the u S House OF Representa-
tives, the Honorable George H
Bender congressmsn-at-lsrge from
state OF Ohio, last week raped the
treatment OF Negro soldiers ana
scored the attitude OF southern
communities for their abuse #
Negro troops.
He called on the aid OF the War
Department 10 correct these evils
Is Negro soldiers were entitled -
equal rights and privileges the
same as other races.
The congressmans speech follows
Our country is fighting for the
right Of all people to human free
dom. We are fighting for eque,
rights and equal treatment, Yet
within our own borders and within
our own armed forces we permit
Conditions of shocking inequality.
On the evening OF April 30 a
tran operated by the Louisville and
Nashville Railway company stopped
at Montgomery, Ala, and nine COL
ored soldiers stationed at a camp
in this vicinity boarded the train
They were coming north for a we'll
deserved furlough They boarded
the train at about 6:45 in the eve
ming
The following morning, May /,
the train stopped at Bowling Green.
Ky. at about 9 am. A large group
Of white soldiers got off the train
at Bowling Green and went into the
station for breakfast. The nine co...
ored soldiers who were on this tram
entered the same station and asked
10 be served. They were willing
10 eat sandwiches and coffee; willing
even to stand in line without sitting
down with the other soldiers THEY
WERE REFUSED SERVICE.
They got on the train to resume
their journey. At noon-time, the call
for lunch was made in ever ca-
except the car IN which the nine
colored soldiers were seated. They
never were given the opportunity
10 eat lunch. AL that day, they rode
without food.
From 6:45 pm. on April 30 until
AS pm. on May l, when they ar
rived at Cincinnati. these men had
gone hungry. These boys were COM
ing home to Pittsburgh and Phila-
delphia, wearing the uniform OF the
Army OF the United States.
What justification can there pos
sibly be for treating these men who
ere ready and willing to give up
their lives for their country in this
way? What possible reason can
there be for denying them the right
to eat with their fellow soldiers,
who are drawn from the same
American population.
In England today, the system OF
rigid class barriers which has been
established through centuries OF I'M
intelligent tradition is breaking
down under the impact OF war. 1.
is high time that the refusal o.
white men and women in the South
10 treat our colored citizens as fell
low human beings was broken
down Colored soldiers and white
soldiers are fighting in the same
cause They have the duty to work
together, to die together. This gov.
eminent must see to it that they
have the right and privilege OF eat
ing together. Any man who denies
food 10 these soldiers is not working
for the United States. He is working
for the AXIS.
