Negroes are not sorry "Bohola

ried too long : after making pro-
misses to be everything to every
body and do everything everybody

Mayor O'Dwyer's departure
raises many questions. One has to
do with the Congressional investi-

Another has to do with the
Democratic's hope of capturing
New York lock, stock and barrel
with a part as rotten as the Prem

According to the state law, ma
yors of the New York City and
state governors are not elected in
the same year, although congress-
men are. With an important CUB
ernatiorial election coming up in
volving the Democrats darling,
Senator Lehman, several import

a chance to give New York it's
first Democrat governor in years,
the opportunity was too great for
the politicians to pass up. So they
suggested somewhere where the
White House could get it this
would be an excellent opportunity
to kill four or five birds with one
stone.
First, it would eliminate O'Dw-

from a bartender to the mayor of
the worlds richest city; secondly,
it would give a Democratic ticket
the terrific vote New York casts

opposition; and thirdly, it would
sweep the state right into the
Democratic column. Also it would

All of this came up because the
Democrats thought they had Re-

REGIMENT IN KOREA (ANP)
If the rumors going the rounds
both here and in Washington, D.
c., are indicative of the future
prospects of the crack veteran
oath Infantry regiment, the unit
will cease to be a combat com
ponent ofthe army--that is, as far
as it's all-Negro designation is
concerned.
Here at the front where the
proud but battle-Weary and voc
fully understrengthed unit is still
shouldering it's part Of the battle
to push the Korean Reds out of
the country, the big question is
"Will the oath be broken up?"
Back home in the United States,
that same question is being tossed
around both in Washington and
throughout the country.
What's and who's behind all
these rumors? Why?
The situation at the front is
pedhaps the best indication of
is happening. The valiant and
hard fighting oath has been in
continuous action against the
enemy for 60 days.
Add to this question those of
why, what and who is behind all
of these rumors Will the oath
fall prey tothe same undermining
tactics which was visited upon the
92nd division in Italy during
World War II?
At the Pentagon in Washington
the only answer given is that the
oath may be removed from the
front line because of "battle ia
tigue." For a unit to have been
on front action longer than any
other in this fracas, this is under
standable if true.
After all, human endurance lasts
only so long under the terrific
strain which these men have faced.
Too, the oath could not be ex-
pected to stand fast against the
ever increasing Red hordes, when
it's own ranks are dwindling in
numbers with no requirements to
fill the gaps.
What is the picture at the
front?
The army is checking into the
combat performance" of the 24th
supposedly because it is thinking
in terms of migrating was launch
ed because of the North Korean
break through on Sept. Fl on that
part of the 18th divisions front
held by the oath. This break
through followed the see-saw
struggle for "Battle oMuntain"
two miles west of Haman.

position six times. The seventh

There is talk that the oath will
be broken up and made into nom
lighting elements. This rumor is
oased on a report being complied
Dy a captain from the 25th divi-
sion headquarters. The officer is
reported to have been interview
ing soldiers for the past fortnight,
asking such questions as who and
how many came off front line
opisitions during enemy attacks.
The information the captain is
seeking will be used for two
purposes, it is reported. 1t will
serve as the basis for court-mar-
tial proceedings against the tail
turner's and also to support So
called findings" that Negroes are
mo good in combat"
The unit has been accused by
| some of it's white officers and by
other outfits of doing more than
it's share of "high-tailing" to the
rear. However, the oath veterans
say they know personally OF
many white units who have lost
more valuable equipment and
ground to the enemy, and of white
| officers who feigned one condition
or another in order to get out of
the shot spots"
That there is really a plan I'M
| derfoot to discredit the unit was
revealed in a statement made by
Col. Arthur Champeney, who as
sumed command recently. He told
the unit that "colored soldiers have
a poor reputation as fighting
men," that he intended to make
the unit the fighting Oath"
Champeney was wounded by rifle
fire when the regimental command
post was fired upon shortly after
he took over.
New Commander Praises Group
The new commander, 1t. Col
II. T. Corley, who replaced Cham
penney, had a different view of
the oath when he assumed the Of
flee. He said:
GIN 60 days of continuous COM
bat, you have withstood a rough
ness of battle which I did not see
in five campaigns in Africa, Sicily
and Europe with the First Infan-
try division.

While the "blockhousers", as
the oath are called, felt uplifted
by the Commanders statement,
there was still an uneasiness, bit
terness, and frustrated wondering
about what the future course of
the oath will be.
They are not alone in wonder
ing. Negroes at home who have
followed the glorious history of
the oath are also wondering :
