ED. NOTE - The following
editorial was clipped from the
Windsor Daily Star in Canada
and sent US by Mrs. Reba NetzIer,
efficient and conscientious Mar.
YWCA staff member. Mrs. Metz
Ter was quite pleased to note the
great increase in Negro tourists
this year in places like Niagara
Falls, Toronto and Windsor. On
the Canadian side Negroes are
never Disseminated against.
Watching television, scanning
news reels or newspaper photos
the last few days, maybe you, too
have been struck by the large pro-
portion of colored soldiers among
American troops released from
POW camps in Korea and now
safely home. Quite an eye-open-
er, indeed, and one that indicates
the formerly despised and Segre-
gated Negro bore at least his
share, if not more, of the fight
ing on Far Eastern battlefields.
Washington recently lifted the
curtain on the u. S. Army'S inte-
grafton Of Negroes into white"
units. During the past year the
Army has completed the inte-
grafton of 80 percent of its Negro
troops. At the time of the Ber-
lin airlift and again after Korea,
it was found the Army was get
ting more Negroes than it could
conveniently fit into all-Negro
units set aside for them. Struct-
urally the Army was set up to
take Negroes in proportion tn
their strength in the total popu-
lation of the U.S.-about 10 per-
cent.
Actually, because of the Army's
greater dependence on the draft
than its sister services, and the
Negro soldiers higher re-enliSt-
ment rate, officials found the Ne
gro personnel swelling to 1875
percent. For a time, Lieutenant
General Maxwell Taylor, h g n
heading up training and organi-
alton, now 9th Army commander

in Korea, let himself be persuaded
to bootleg" new u-its ~
the purpose of taking Negroes.
Then he objected s.renuous4y 70
distorting any further the Army
structure.
Tnereupon the excess Negro
personnel began to pile up in ex-
listing all-Negro units. Some of
them grew to double and almost
triple their normal enlisted-man
strength, with all the attendant
problems in morale and dis
cipline for their Officers. BY
June of last year the General Staff
had made up its mind that seq
regation had to go.
Corps commanders were called
into conference at Washington,
but what they were told on ar
rival is something of a secret. But
il would be a safe bet there were
pointed words about the waste
of the country'S limited manpow-
er through the necessity of main
tanning a "two-army" system.
Surprisingly to the Army, which
feared Southern reactions, int
grafton in the U. S. has proceeded
faster than abroad. There are
only SO remaining all-Negro units
few of them containing more
than 800 men. Fifty-Six are
abroad, mainly in Europe. Of the
40 at home, 10 are band units of
25 men each.
Indignation of the remaining 10
percent of segregated Negro SOL
diers now depends on vacancies
within existing white units to
which they can be sent. Anyway,
the pictures you've been seeing
are far cry from the old Jim

seemed to be a strong chance
that Parliament, called back into
session next mid-week, will give
him a go-ahead on this basis.

The so Americans returned by

smallest number since the ex-
change began. The stories they
told of torture and inhumane
treatment, bitter cold, little food
and poor medical treatment
while in Communist hands fol-
lowed the pattern of those who
had preceded them. The men
were all from POW Camp / on
the Yalu River, North Korea.
Treason Charges Brewing.
Attorney General Herbert
Brownell said Saturday that
POWs wso collaborated with
the Communists may face
charges of treason.
C"There is a possibility of
either military trial or prose-
cution by the Justice Depart
ment," he said in press con-
ference at Los Angeles.")
Saturdays exchange was ac-
complished despite a record rain
fall and flood conditions in South
Korea which cut all rail trans
portation routes. The allies called
on fleets of trucks to transfer
the Red POWs from Inchon to
the Yongdonflpo holding area
and from there to Munsan pre-
paratory to turning them over
to Communist receivers at Pan
munjom.

The exchange began on July

Including those exchanged to-
day, the allies have returned &c.
824 Red prisoners, among them
