by Army, ana Navy

Washington, D. C.-Repeated at,
tempts on the part of southern ar
my and navy personnel to enforce
southern race patterns on non SOU
thern areas were assailed again this
week by Walter White, executive
secretary to the National Associat-
ion for the Advancement Of Colored
People, who in a letter to the Sec
rotary Of war Stimson said:
I'VE submit again that the War
Department needs to speed UP the
formulation Of a more clearly de-
fined program in accordance with
the highest standards Of democracy
to avert further trouble and to
serve notice upon bigots that the
decent thoughtful people of the Uni
ted States who constitute the over
whelming majority, are going II
determine the patterns Of action Of
the country as a whole and not the
bigots themselves"
The NAACP called Stimson's at
tention to a memorandum issued by
order of Major Ralph S, Hardiman
through A. J. Brown, 1st 1t. ONO,
Adjutant Of Headquarters, Second
Battalion, 47th Quartermasttr Reg

were quoted sections POI, 204, 2O7
and 2O9 Of the Oklahoma Statute
providing for segregation in feder-
al carriers with penalty for violat-
ion thereof and to which was added
the further note that the follow

there means that large numbers of
white Sailors. mostly s~outherners,
are in and out Of town. There had
been several minor clashes before
I arrived and the colored sailors
with whom I talked were in no
mood to stand much more Of the
insults they were receiving on every
hand. RESTAURANTS were asking

This news is no surprise to me.
The colored lads held a special

Navy to Investigate Vallejo, Calf. Riots
NAACP URGES PUNISHMENT
OF INSTIGATORS

Vallejo, Calif.,-The wounding Of
two Negro cooks during the riots
December 26-27 involving some 2T5
Negro and white sailors and a few
civilians here brought from the Ma
ACP in New York the following tel
egram to Secretary of Navy Knox:
Attack by southern whites on
Negro sailors and civilians to pre-
vent latter from continuing as in
past to use places of public accom-
modation in Vallejo, California, en-
phasizes again necessity for strong
er policy by Navy Department IN
summarily furnishing those who at
tempt to enforce southern racial
patterns on northern communities.
It is ironic and disheartening to
read press statements that the di4-
turbance was quelled when marines
turned machine guns on the Negro
es. It is also Significant that only
Negroes were injured. when the
evidence seems to establish that
white s~outherners were the aggres-
sors in attacking Negro patrons of
tavern. Courtmartial and punish
ment to full extent Of law in this
and similar cases will do more than
anything else to prevent furtehr out
break. we respectfully urge such
action"
