BLACKS ON A CONVOY
The other picture viewed by this
writer was that of a small steam
er, part of large convoy crossing
the Atlantic for some British port.
The legend informed its reader
that the men going to establish a
new front against the Axis aggres-
sorS. All over the decks of this
steamer there lay, squatted and
stood Negro soldiers, scores of
them, too crowded together, how
ever for comfort.
These men were going to fight
for their homes and loved ones and
for the liberties" guaranteed under
their constitution. Yet, it is no
secret, that morale among many of
them and the race they left be-
hind is low-perhaps too low. Many
probably were as mentally uncom-
Portable as they appeared physical
ly uncomfortable in that picture.
Remember, they were on their
way to fight against conditions in
other lands which they experienced
daily at home.
It's an uncanny situationi No
wonder Westbrook Pegler, the COL
umniSt who once wrote against the
Negroes contention for his rights
in newspapers, after studying the
real plight of the race, said that
if he were a Negro he would "live
in constant fury" and probably
batter myself to death against the
bars inclosing my condition" It's
uncanny!
