WHAT ABOUT FORT LAYTON TRAGEDY?

Many disturbing rumors - too widespread and too
nsistant to be lightly dsregarded still flood the city
and the nation concerning the tragic night of August
18th at Fort Lawton.
These rumors variousy assert that the attack upon
sleeping and unarmed Italians was nstigated led and
participated in by whites that ropes and strechers and
boats were found at hand, ready consummate much
greater CRIME that the plans miscarried owing to the
intervention of dissenting Negroes even that no Negroes
participated in the ynching of the one Italian found
dead They coverty disclose motives point to persons
ana suggest attempts at pinnng the guilt upon the
negroes and withdrawing the rest.
Whether true, untrue or half true these rumors
cannot be allowed to circulate unchecked for too long
without grave danger The public has full confidence in
the military authorities and awast from them at very
early date full disclosure of the facts ascertaned in
thelr inquiry that will place at all the unwarranted
interpretations of what happened on that Hateful night
ana 1t awaits the that those guilty of nstiqa
uon' as we'll as guilty of commission have been or
VIII promptly be punished without fear or favor ire
specve OF rank or color to the full extent of the law
When this shall have been achieved when all tenn
pofary restrictions to intercourse between the military
and the civil population shall have been abolished then
no one can have any further excuse for disseminating
hatred and suspicion and shall try to forget an incl
dent which, however regrettable was promptly iustIv
ana fearlessy dealt with No more and no less can be
demanded

BEYOND The NEGRO

Any comment upon the savagery and eowardiee Of
the Negro soldiers who the other night at Fort Lawton
attacked without the slightest provocation, group of
sleeping and unarmed Italians in the service bar
barously killing and wounding many, is entirely
peruous except to wonder how it could be possible for
antire company of soldiers trained under L. military
discipline to plan collectively such attack to arise
the middle of the night and to another barracks
without attracting the notice any sentes and carry
out undsurbed until it too late, their foul enter
prise.
1t is not province to discuss here what military
of safety omitted executed per-
nit the of such deplorable incident But
is impossible not to try to ascertain where beyond the
Negroes Immediately involved the ultimate responsible
ty lies.
There can be no doubt that this is primarily, con-
sequence of the uncontrolled campaign of which,
in the name of freedom that goes beyond all the i'm
its of decency certain members ofthe American press
have been permitted to carry undisturbed the
post is to incite acts of the barbarous
violence. But, in smaller measure, distinct part of
the responsibility must go to the military authorities of
the fort for having permitted through grave error
judgment, situation to materialze whereby an Incl
dent of this kind could take place
1t that the Italian soldiers Lawton have
been the victims for long time of innumerab!e pro
vocaons and insults against which they
not to react In fact they did to the limits of human
endurance, but their conduct instead pacfyng
hoheadS, had the opposite effect of embodening them
even more, by making them believe that what was
sublime discipline was intead, lack of courage.
1t is evident that, it only from sense of fair
and justice the authorities at the fort should have
enforced the strictest disciplinary to dscour
such insults and all attempts at provocation If this
had been done is quite possible that matters might
have gone far they did and that the tragedy
other night would have been averted
We have no doubt that the military authorities will
make prompt and exhaustive investigation of the whole
matter but we hope that beyond furnishing the directly
culpable they will also attempt to find remedy
the msufferabe situation of these who try to live
among us the most respectful guests whereas the
host permits his servants to break all rules of hos
pitallty That is if ourselves do not break all the
rules of moderation by classifying murder as a breach
of hospitality.

Americas Opportunity

Behind its two protecting oce-
ans, America has never bothered
much about its international re-
putation. Perhaps no other peo-
pie have cared less about what
other people thought of them. So
long as the United States was a
second-rate power, it did not
matter much. But now most
Americans realize that our days
of isolation are over. America
is not only a part of the world,
but it must, in view of its tre-
mendous power. accept world
leadership If peace is to be pre-
served. Our reputation is now
of great Importance. A leader
must have moral as well as COM
mereial prestige il it is to have
decisive influence. And none is

SEATTLE NAACP
30 Peoples Bank Bldg.
Ell oSO7

The NAACP has appointed a
legislative committee consisting
of Prentis I. Frazier. James Gay
ton, John E. Prim. George Wood
and Dean e. Hart. This commit
tee will sponsor the Civil Rights
Bin for King County.
The football game went on last
Friday evening. nut behind the
scenes events were taking place
that might have stopped it. The
report came to the NAACP office
that the manager of the Seattle
team made twenty MOTEL reserva-
tons for the visiting team. but
took it upon himselft to reserve
rooms at a downtown totel for
the IS white boys, and at a hotel
in the Jackson area for "Izzy"
Anderson. When sport fans ques-
toned the home manager about
this segregation he avowed 1t
was the fault of the downtown
hotel owner. The sport fans
stormed the NAACP office threat
ening to form picket line
around the stadium unless this
error was corrected. The NAACP,
through Mr.. Frazier, co-ehairman
of the Legal Redress Committee,
knew the downtown hotel owner
and found out from him that
the owner knew nothing of the
segrega ton. and further that he
welcomed an opportunity to
serve the entire team. Mr.. Fraz-
Ter. then unable to reach the
home team manager by tele-
phone, went to his office. When
facts were placed before the
home team office, the office staff
agreed to get Mr.. Cantor and
personally take him to the down
town hotel to join his teammates.
The teammates. by the way, were
waiting Indignantly in their hotel
rooms until the matter was adj
justed. 1t was adjusted, and the
game went on.
