ton methods. We know what crops
can be profitably raised on irrigation.
We know all of these things very well

ming an ambitious program in an area
with a relatively large rainfall in an
other river basin where the seepage,
no matter how many canals are built,
would inevitably escape our water
shed, and which would require the
building of huge canals hundreds of
miles long which would theoretically
return the remainder of the waters
of the Missouri to it at the Nebraska
line, we should insist on a program
which would extend irrigation to the
maximum here in Montana where
there is a very real demand for it,
where the costs would be relatively
low and where there would be no
doubt that the water would be used.
Now as to the Engineers plan. That
plan has been adopted in principle
by the congress. While that plan
was the only complete one we here
in Montana were very much opposed
to it. Many who are now endorsing
it, publicly opposed it very strongly
at that time. While the Flood Con-
troll Bill did remove some objections
to it l still am not convinced we
should approve it without reservation
as is here proposed. 1t still calls for
a nine-foot channel through much of
the length of the river When it was
first proposed we were told by the
Bureau that such a chan
mel would jeopardize even the irri-
cation we now have. If we add to our
present requirements the amount we
need to double our acreage here, and
to add another million acres in North

not, serious thought should be given
by all to the question before we give
blanket approval to it.
Looking at the whole matter OBJ
jectively it would seem that the en-
dorsement of the two plans now pre-
pared is perhaps occasioned more by
disapproval of the plans proposing a
basin-wide authority than because it
is thought the two plans are proper
and sufficient. Disapproval of an
MVA does not require blanket APPROX
al of some other plan. The objections
have raised may not be found upon
thorough study to be valid, but | be-
lieve they are so serious that the
memorial should be so amended at
least as to remove the language which
so sweepingly endorses these two
plans.
Finally I should like to point out
tina a reading of the Reclamation plan
and the Flood Control Bill shows that
the two federal bureaus involved are
far apart on many vital problems in
volved in the development of the ba-
sin. These two plans standing alone
are not yet in harmony but more seri-

HAIL COLONIAL COLOR BAR
CONDEMNATION BY
BRITISH MISSIONARIES

NEW YORK, Mar. 27 (ANP)-
The strong demand for the end of
the color bar and other forms of
racial discrimination in Britain's
African colonies voiced by the Con-
ference of Missionary societies in
Great Britain and Ireland, and sup
ported by the executive committee
of the British Council of Churches,
has been hailed by DR.. Max Yer
gan, executive director of the Coun-
Gil on African affairs, as further
evidence that the democratic ma
jority of the British people are op-
posed to maintenance of the COL
onial status quo.
The British Labor party, it was
pointed out, has repeatedly de-
manded the abolition of the color
bar in the territories for which
parliament is responsible. In its
statement on colonial policy issued
two years ago, the Labor party
went on record as absolutely op-
posed to the color bar operating in
political or economic spheres" de-
claring that ''the laws and admin
istrative practices upon which it
rests must be Immediately abol-
ished."
The British church has now
Joined British labor in this de-
mand. The Missionary conference
in its statement cited specific con-
ditions of arbitrary racial discrim-
nation against Africans in South
ern Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia,
and Kenya. The white settlers in
these British territories have
adopted the same methods whereby
Union of South Africa compel the
the European minority in the
eight million Africans to remain in
a subservient status.

or In use the war for the promotion Of

one group, as this var has been used
in promoting the negro. Except possibly
the problem of the racketeers who have
wormed their way into our labor uni
ons, this racial problem Is the most i'm
portant one we have to face on the home
front--and matters aren't helped when
the army is used as a proving ground
for these racial agitators, as it has been
in the case of the 92nd Division. A ire
mendous amount Of time and money
has been spent in training the 92nd
Division for combat duty, and yet the
very first time it gets into real action
IL proves something that the average
Southerner has known all along-name-
". that the negro is not a good combat
soldier. This money has been spent
this time has been used, and the lives
of these young negro soldiers have
been unnecessarily taken for one rea-
son. and one only-and that reason is
political. The negro has a tremendous
role to play in this war, and it is not
an unworthy one. He makes a fine sup
ply soldier, and he is serving his coun-
try we'll in that capacity. He deserves
an apology from the agitating members
Of his own race who, by insisting that
he be thrown into combat, have been
willing to sacrifice his life for their
own political advancement. Southern

Folly Of Negro In Combat

The damage that can be wrought
when professional do-gooders and med
oilers NEEDLE into something they have
no knowledge of is seen in the TACT ina
hundreds and maybe thousands OF negro
soldiers, through no fault OF their own
have been wounded and killed by the
Germans.
The 92nd Division, a negro division
was thrown into combat only after
much agitation by the negro press
which raised the cry Of discrimination
because this Division had not been put
into combat.
After these negro youths have been
wounded and killed members OF their
own race who raised this cry will I'M
doubtedly come to consider the negro
as a combat soldier in a different hght'
1t is too bad that many negro youths
had to die before the meddlers VINO IN
fluenced the policies Of the War De-
partment to the extent of using the
negro division In combat were salts
fled.
The following comment by "News-
week" in its Feb. 26th Issue tells the
story.
"The most extensive and whole-heart-
ed effort by the United States Army TO
give American negro troops a role in
the war equal to that Of white troops
has so far been more productive Of dis
appointment and failure than OF any
thing else. That much could be told last
week about the experience of the Army
with the 92nd Division, an outfit in
which all the enlisted men and a high
proportion Of the officers are negroes.
"The S2nd was intended to demon
strate that negro troops could be used
In front-line combat and also to meet
criticism that negroes were always CIV
en- mental tasks. Last year, therefore,
tho 92nd moved into the line on the
Italian front. 1t rapidly acquired a bad
reputation among other troops. They

claimed that the men Of the 92nd were
'trigger-happy," that 1t was impossible
to send out patrols near the 92nd be-
cause they shot at even their own pa
| trolls and at Italian civilians as well.
"Then last December, the Germans
launched a strong attack on the Serchio
River line. Part Of the line a few miles
inland from the Mediterranean Coast
was held by the END. II crumbled under
he Nazi assault and another division
had to be hastily thrown into the gap.
Last week misfortune apparently struck
the 92nd again. After a two-day attack
the previous week, German infiltrations
forced the division back to Its original
positions. Casualties were officially ad-
mitted to have been high.
"Writing about this reverse, Milton
Breaker, New York Times correspond
ent, cabled: Something should be noted
now that has been troubling head
quarters for some time; how to handle
the divisions public relations in view
of the supersensitivity of some negro
papers at home, which have unquestion-
ably tended to overemphasize the divi-
sion's accomplishments and the newt
able racial aspects of the situation"
As every person familiar with the
campaign Of negro agitation will tell
you, the 92nd Division has been the
spcarhead of the drive. The 92nd Divi-
sion has had mere lineage devoted to
it, in the press Of America-largely the
negro press-than any other ten Amer
lean divisions, excepting, of course, its
younger brother, the 93rd Division, like
wise a negro outfit. Fol month after
month, the S2nd Division has been play
ed up; when 1t was not sent overseas,
the negro press set up a mighty cry OF
discrimination" and when finally II
went into the Mediterranean area, its
little activity was reported, and often
magnified. This, of course, is not meant
to imply that the individual negro sol
diers have had anything to do with the
