NAACP Official Says
Marines in Pacific
FoughtC CoIoredSaiIors
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, July 7.-Walter
White, secretary of the National As
sociation for the Advancement of
Colored People, said today a group
of Marines on an important Pacific
island threw hand grenades and
smoke bombs into camps occupied by
colored Navy men in a series of in
cidents that resulted in clash.
Mr.. White, who returned recently
from a four-month tour of the Pa
cific theater, told radio audience
he accepted an invitation from the
island commander to serve as de-
fense counsel before Navy board
of inquiry appointed to investigate
the clash.
For weeks" he related, "a few
Marines had been throwing bricks,
empty beer bottles and, on three
occasions, hand grenades and smoke
bombs into camps occupied by Negro
Navy men.
when no attempt was made by
the authorities to stop the attacks
or punish the attackers, the colored
men in despair determined to de-
fend themselves when next attacked
The next assault took place a
few days later on Christmas eve, "
Mr.. White said. "A group of white
servicemen fired on colored sailors
and ran them out of the main town
on the island. Shortly after mid
night truckload of white Marines
went to the Negro camp, charging
that one of their number had been
hit by stone thrown by Negro
Navy man. The Marines threat
ened to take the matter into their
own hands
"On Christmas Day one Negro
Serviceman was shot and killed and
another shot by white servicemen.
These and other assaults infuriated
the men who had been attacked to
the point that twice they attempted
to go into town to take vengeance.
On one occasion they were turned
back; on the second they were ar
rested, charged with rioting and
unlawful aSsemblage.
Mr.. White did not disclose the
outcome of the board of inquiry's
investigation.
He said the point he wanted to
make in telling of the clash was not
to emphasize such happenings but
"to personalize the corrosive effect
of ignorance and bigotry on the
the progress of the war in the Pa
ciflc and at home"
He declared the japanese eagerly
capitalize instances of friction be-
tween white and colored personnel
and give wide publicity among the
Paciflc's colored peoples to "the
anti-Negro rantings of Congressman
like Rankin and Senators like Bilbo
in filibustering a proposal to estab-
lish a Fair Employment Practices
Committee"

War Production Chairman J. A.
Krug Authorized production of 200,
900 cars during the last six months
Of this year and predicted that
100000 will be turned out by July,
1915. He said they would be ra-
toned until essential drivers needs
are met.
He added that producers will
have to buy their materials on the
open market. They will get no
priority assistance from WPR. He
was confident, however, that this
problem can be met through "inl

The last civilian passenger cars
cleared assembly lines in Febru-
ary, 1912. Industry spokesman
have promised that the new cars
will look different from 1912
models, but Government officials
doubted there would be radical
changes at first.
