Dor the NNPA Newa SeryIee
BY Louis LAutler

FOR the NNfA news H&FVlce
The argument Of Marcus II. Ray,
civilian aide TO the Secretary Of
War, In support Of the exclusion
from the Army Of colored men who
have not completed q high school
education Is refuted by Army
studies Of efficient troop utilization.
Mr.. Ray contends that eolored
men who have less than q high
school education cannot be trained
and motivated into being good SOL
diers; that they are responsible for
the high court-martial and venereal
disease rates, and, therefore, they
should be denied the right to enlist.
On the basis Of special study the
Army reached the conclusion that
limited education and experience
can be Offset In part by training,
and the restrictive effects Of race
prejudice may be reduced by q
properly planned international and
orientAtion program.
The Army General Classification
tests were designed TO provide a
quick and reasonably dependable
measurement Of an enlisted mans
working level and ability to learn.
They were not developed TO meas.
ure a mans native intelligence.
Under present War Department
policy, which Mr.. Ray supports, q
eolored man must have the equiVa-
lent Of an ACCT score Of 90
II points less than IL required of
an applicant for officer candidate
tTRining--to be accepted for volun-
tary enlistment in the Army. A
white man with score Of 10 may
enlist.
A man with less than FIVE years
Of schooling Is considered "fune.
tionally illiterate."
Competent scholars are agreed
that most Of the differences revealed
by intelligence tests and other de-
vices can be accounted for In terms
Of differences In opportunity and
background.
The Army found that although
the intelligence and educational
scores were lowered for eolored
men than for whites, there was q
very large overlap in these scores:
that the test performance Of many
colOred men was equal or superior
to that Of many whites. II con.
eluded that The military potent.

one Of the largest auditoriums in
the city and is composed Of rep
resentatives Of almost every repu-
table segment Of the community.
This year for the first time q col
ored person will stand before that
body and nominate a cOlored per-
son for a place on the Board Of
Directors Of the Chest.
The job of colored citizens in
Birmingham this year is, there
fore, more important than ever in
sofar as doing their best by way of
contributions and assistance in this
annual drive.
We are beginning this year to
train our youth to assume and exc
cute civic responsibilities. All
seniors in the colored high schools
Of Birmingham and jefferson
County are carrying the message
Of the Community Chest into the
upwards of 200 colored churches
in the county. Around 500 have
volunteered to perform this serv-
ice. II is one Of the most signifi-
cant steps made by colored people
affiliated with the Chests annual
appeal.
Nine young women to every one
young men have volunteered to
serve as members Of the speakers
bureau. Young men in the rural
areas have been more responsive
than those in the metropolitan
areas. And women as a whole
have shown to be more civic-con-
scious than men.
II Is being discovered that white
people judge eOlOred people by the
degree in which they assume civic
responsibility.
While we battle for rights, we
must not fail in our responsibility
on the community level. Herein
is the fire out Of which comes
gold. Herein we give light as we
are consumed.

area SatufateS the LefflJOKy, hnO
the radio reaches people who can
not read. Through these two med
iums you will understand how easy
1t was 10 give q false impression
Of what colored people contributed
in the annual Community Chest
appeal.
Let US say that on the first day
Of the drive the eolOred division
reported $1,000. The newspapers
would say that the colored divi.
sion had raised 80 per cent Of its
quota, If $1,000 happened to be its
quota. In the minds Of the people
there was established the false i'm.
preston that lac, 900 colored people
had a quota Of $1,000, while the
100, 900 whites in the community
had a quota Of upwards of 5000, 600
Under this set up, the fact that
in the industrial, commercial and
other divisions where colored peo-
pie along with others made their
contribution, cOlOred people were
giving upwards Of $4,000 was lost
sight Of. The net result was that
on the basis Of meeting the COM
munity responsibility, it was made
to appear that there is no basis
on which to regard the eolOred citi-
zen as the equal Of others.
We recommended TO our advisory
council membership this year that
the so-called colored division be
abolished; that an outstanding
cOlored person be named as one
of the cO-chairmen Of the annual
appeal and that he be charged
with the responsibility Of the drive
among colored citizens, as citizens,
in all divisions into which they
fall by virtue Of employment, Oc-
cupation or place Of residence with
no cOlored quota as such. V. L,
Harris, youngest local insurance
company president, accepted this
responsibility and has an office
in the Community Chest building
downtown.
This year when the quota is up
wards Of 100000, each cOlored
person, as every other person, looks
upon the total quota as the quota OF
all; if raised. as a community vic
tory, and until raised, a community
responsibility.
We also recommended that the
names of five civic leaders be SUBJ
mitted to the nominating commit
tee of the Community Chest from
which to pick one for nomination
for a place on the Board Of Direc-
tors Of the Community Chest. II
the name Of at least one Colored
person Is not presented to the nom
mating committee, it has beer
agreed that one Of our group al
the annual meeting Of the entire
chest membership will place a col
Ored person in nomination. This
will give the person making the
nomination opportunity to present
the need for greater participation
in the administration of the af
fairs Of the Community Chest BY
colored people on policy making
level.

usIIILSu W LISs army just a. In
the case Of white troops Of similar
ability"
The report Of the Gillem Board
on the effective utilization Of coll
ored manpower in the postwar
Army, which the War Department
uses as authority for limiting col
ored personnel TO 10 per cent Of
Army strength, and which Mr.. Ray
uses rs the basis Of his argument
for selective enlistment Of colored
men, states that THE principle Of
economy Of forces clearly indicates
that every effort must be expended
10 utilize efficiently every quail
fed available individual In o posi-
ton In the military structure for
which he IL best qualified"
Now, the Army maintains at tax
payers expense u program Tor
training officers and enlisted per-
sonnet at civilian institutions, the
tuition for which amounts to near
ly $700. 900 q year.
II the Army can train men In
vocational courses, why can II not
extend its training program to
make efficient soldiers Of men who
have not had the advantages Of
formal education3
Mr.. Ray says budgetary consid-
eratiOns and lack Of personnel will
not permit Il.
But the Information and Educa-
ton Division was given large APP
preparation for a three fold mission /:
IN To see that the American SOL
der Is fully informed; (2) to pro-
vide him with educational oppor-
tunities. and (3D to provide q re-
search department to obtain soldier
opinion.
With officer personnel and civil
ian instructors, II carried on a pro-
gram In the overseas theaters to
enable men TO continue their in
terrupted education.
There is a precedent for such q
program in this country. During
the war special training units were
set up to give functiOnally illiterate
men an opportunity TO learn TO read
and write. In n short period Of time
these men were given the equivalent
Of a fourth grade education.
From the fact that eolored men
succeeded fully as well as white
trainees In special training units
the Army saw significant implica-
tons for the further training and
utilization Of eolored personnel. The
Army said ut certainly tends to
show the Negro needs only the
chance TO learn"
Can IL be that the Army Is re-
pudiating its own findings now that

THE worst disease under which
the society Of our nation suffers,
Is, In my opinion, the treatment
Of the Negro. Everyone who Is not
used from childhood to this in
justice suffers from the mere OBJ
servation. The fight against
(this prejudice) is difficult as Is
the fight on every issue In which
the enemy has thoughtlessness and
a fatal tradition on its side.
