JUST TOLERA1ION'

Whether the Negro is wanted in this just toera
ed as gesture of appeasement for his patriotism is Ques-
ton that could be debated at length The actions of certain
government agencies supported by the War DEPARTMENT
raise doubt in the mind of the Negro to the sincerity
of Congress when the Negro included in the draft laws
The War Department fully cognzant of the danger to the
Negro soldiers when they send them into the zones that have
already been nflamed by the action of the Civil War and
those flames have died down. and the presence of Ne
gro from the North whether in uniform not is in danger
in certain sections If the War Department was sincere IN
wanting Negroes in this why copadlze the Negro IN
the South unless he is being used to increase the white sol
ders malice for the darker they preparing to meet
We can't fathom Federal Government asking more
than is willing to give No government has any right -
ask any people to protect it that is not willing to protect
Our Government fails every side to protect the people
they have asked protect it Why? Can they be sincere in
inducting the Negro in service 1t is rcgrctu that its act
ton has lowered the morale of the Negro that he prefers in
some instances life behind bars to serving his country One
story comes where young Negro chose death at his own
hands as preference to serving his country II is bad
reflection on any country, when the morale of its citizens
reaches such low level.
Who is responsible The War Department not the white
man in the south The Department is fully aware OF mel
dents of violence in the South they have happened in every
state below the imaginary MasonDivon line, and the De
partmen has been repeatedly asked TO discontinue sending
Northern troops in the South Yet they continue 1t would

A REAL REVENGE

Human and natural though it is there is danger in the
cry for revenge Revenge for defeat Iers ralFng
call to the German people and like the Phsuos Of Old of
whom Ezekiel wrote they have dealt by revenge and have
taken vengeance with desptefu heart destroy it for
the old hatred
Revenge a two edged sword, cutting well our
safe but effective CUTLER Couch described it thus THE
greatest revenge have enemy not TO he like
him" Let us therefore take reyengeno OF slaylsh ml-
tation Of haredsbut let rather be dlsSmar Let
set example
What do We hate most in enemies? First, we hate
the cruelty Let seek revenge by being kind by DONG unto
others would have them do unto us.
Second hate the expressions Let US seek revenge by
being srupuously fair in all of our dealings with others mo-
matter now insignificant the act
Third We hate the domination of the many by The few
Let us seek revenge by treating those with whom come
in contact not as groups in derogatoy qensues tut
individuals like unto ourselves with the principles
the same rights and the same obligations
Fourth we hate the suppression Of freedom. Let us
seek rengc by using freedom of speech and thought
and assembly for the building up of country and our
fellow citizens for the practical application of democracy.
freedom of worship Let seek revenge by making our
religion the living force in lives by putting into rrac
ice the ethics in which believe matter by what name
we call faith. Let prove the worth of our religion 10y
own oCtiOns!
Revenge such as this means Victory both Of the war
and the peacefor through revenge Of this nature we arm
ourselves mentally and morally against the onsaghtS of the
