of Christ, Scientist, in Boston.
Matthews Gospel relates the ex-
perience of the two blind men who
followed Jesus beseeching him to
heal them. Believe ye that I am
able to do this?" Jesus asked, and
they answered, Yea, Lord. Then
touched he their eyes, saying, Ac-
cording to your faith be it unto
you. And their eyes were opened;
9. AS they went out, behold, they
brought to him a dumb man pos
sessed with devil. And when the
devil was cast out, the dumb spake:
And Jesus went about all the
cities and villages, teaching in their
synagogues and healing every
sickness and every disease among
the people"
Mary Baker Eddy writes in "Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" 1T is well to be calm
in sickness; to be hopeful is still
better; but to understand that
sickness is not real and that Truth
can destroy it's seeming reality, is
best of all, for this understanding
is the universal and perfect rem
edy."

Editor Notes The following written by the Editor

another periodical reprinted by request of several of
the late First Sergeant Wells friends who feel that any tribute
to him is in order.

aof the United States Army. He
was a soldier s soldier, a gem
tleman-plus and a gentle faith
er. The story of his civilian
and military life is a saga of
humbleness, thankfulness and a job
we'll done, service well rendered.
Sgt. Wells sleeps in peace in the
tree-Shaded cemetery of Fort Hua-
chuca. He is no longer physically
active, but the memory of his ex-
emplary life will always remain with
those who knew him. He was a
simple, honest and God-respecting
man, Cavalryman for 13 years, an
Infantryman for 10 years and of the
personnel of the Quartermaster
Corps for nearly two years. His last
assignment was with Captain Wal
ter Laws of the Housing Division,
which is a section of the Post En-
gineers. Sgt. Wells enjoyed the fa-
vor of every commanding officer un-
der which he so faithfully served.
The story of last December fol-
lows:
Sergeant Wells is not talkative
person and because of it 1 shall have
to tell you myself about his Army
record, and other things appertain-
ing to his life.
Sgt. Wells Saga
Born in Fairfield, Kentucky, on
July 13, 1893, Sergeant Wells early
in life struck out for himself and
he has been doing so ever since.
And he's done pretty well, may
add. His father was Rufus Wells,
who married a girl named Mamie
Hughes. Sergeant Wells had a
brother in the Old War, a brother
now dead, as the result of hardship
suffered in France during World
War No. 1.
A chauffeur, a butler and a rail-
road porter was Sergeant Wells, at
odd times, before Joining up" for
World War No. l. He got into
soldiers uniform in July, 1918, and
with the exception of one day, he
has been in uniform ever since.
1t was Camp zackery Taylor, in
Louisville, Kentucky, that Sergeant
Wells got his basic training, in the
QuartermaSter Corps. He acquired
corporal's stripes after a short tour
of duty, and ws discharged from the
Army on April "a, 1919. He re-en-
listed the following day, and then
went on to 30-day furlough.
Off to Philippines
Sergeant Wells was now in the
Cavalry and on ihs way with the 9th
Cavalry, for duty in the Philippines.
He went to the Philippines by way
of Vladivostok Russia, the journey
consuming A days. The 9th Caval-
ry was commanded by Colonel John
H. Heard Sergeant Wells served in
Troop "a" from August 7, 1919, un-
til November IL, 1922.
On arrival in the United States
Sergeant Wells was transferred to
the 10th Cavalry, and on Novem-
ber IA, 1929, he arrived at Fort Hua-
chuca. That was just 20 years ago,
and Sergeant Wells has been here
practically ever since.

the armed forces would have been

The conviction followed q trial
which lasted a week and day,
during which oyer so witnesses tes-
tilted in rapid succession. Among
them was McRae who told how he
was shot by Colman on May S while
the then commanding officer was
on a drunken spree.
Not Anti-Negro
Near the close OF the trial two
Negroes, called by the defense, tes-
tilted that Colmsn was not anti
Negro and that morale OF Negro
soldiers stationed at Selfridge Field
is generally high. First 1t. James
Pughsley told the court that Col
man put forth every effort TO make
the 332nd fighter group and other
Negro outfits comfortable.
Similar testimony was offered by
STAFF Sgt. James S. Dllard, member
of the 44th fighter squadron Dill
lard was asked by the court
Aren't conditions as good now as
they were under Col. Colman?"
Yes" billiard answered.
"Are you responsible for the high
morale OF the men in your outft?"
the court asked.
II think the on-commissioned
officers are responsible for keeping
up morale OF the 44th,' billiard
answered.
billiard was then congratulated
by the court for giving credit to
non-commissioned officers.
Accepted Lodge
billiard and Pughsley were called
to the stand after other witnesses
had testified that Colmsn had ac-
cepted a lodge near Oscada air base
as q gift from the Allad company
builders OF prefabricated housing
1t was charged that Colmsn &C.
cepted the lodge in reutrn for OBJ
tanning the transfers to Selfridge
OF James and Robert Granse. sons
OF Herman Granse, a sales repre-
sentative for Allad company. James
Cranse received last-minute
transfer to Selfridge Field just as
he was about to board transport
ship al a port OF embarkation.
f. ". Sovereign, Official OF the
Allad company, told the court that
he gave Colman the lodge for the
use OF Selfridge Field officers, but
restricted use OF the lodge to white
officers only. There was only one
restriction" Sovereign said, "anc
that was that no Negroes were TO be
allowed to use the club"
Sovereign's testimony was sup
ported by Maj. James Hunter, white
squadron commander OF Negro
pilots who testified: 1--WE were

didn't want to associate with them

tised, so we wouldn't have to bunk

cottage"
Colman was cleared OF all charges
OF fraudulently obtaining transfers
OF enlisted men, including 1t. Ben
son Ford, son OF the late Edsel
Ford. He was reduced TO the bottom
OF the list OF permanent captains, TO
remain for three years, during
which period he will not be eligi-
BILE for promotion. His rank as
colonel had been only temporary
Charges for which Colman was
tried included, beside the shooting
OF McRae and fraudulently obtain
ing transfers, misrepresentation of
government property. misappropri-
alton OF salaries OF civilian en-
ployes OF the government, and con-
duct unbecoming an officer.
