TiniltSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1U18.
PROP OUT OF PROPAGANDA.
The busy enemy-alien propaganda
., 1st Is having a hard row to hoe these
days, Buys lsobel Field, of the Vigil
antes. So many of his plans have
slipped up and so many of him are
filling tho concentration camps. Un
. cle 8am Is very, quiet about It, but
lie has a keen eye and a long arm.
Quite unexpectedly, out of the blue,
the ipoor Bpy feels a heavy hand on
his collar, and his usual haunts know
him no more. In his confinement
behind the bars, or while he Is hoe
ing the corn for better men to eat,
he hasn't even the satisfaction of
- gloating over his misdeeds. Too
many of them have failed.
With that boasted German effici
ency of which we once heard so
much the propagandist tackled the
American negro. Here were a people
ready to his hand, simple, kindly
unsuspicious, with so many griev.
ances againBt the government that It
would be easy to Incite thotn to riot
nnd disorder, thereby seriously ham
pering war work.
They tried It. They tried It again
They took another angle and tried it.
Oott in Hlmtnell These people were
loyal! They might complain among
themselves, or to the powers that be,
against their wrongs and oppres
sions, but America was their home,
andl the stars and stripes their flag,
: and Ood help the person who dared
suggeBt that they act ub traitors to
elthorl
Then the buBy little German bee
began another flight, and worked up
feeling among the Ignorant whites
-against the negro. Here he was
more successful as the riots in St.
Louis proved. But they drew the
attention of thoughtful people and It
; was asked, "Why, if the negro were
at fault were there more colored
. men killed than white?" If, as pro
pagandists were shouting, the color
ed people were a "problem" and a
"menace to civilization," how came
it that the troubles wero Invnrlably
started by white men attacking
blacks. The Gorman propagandists
discovered to their dilumuy that their
lactlcs wore having the offoct of
drawing general attention to the
wrongs of the negro and arousing In
terest and sympathy for him on all
sides. The mute protest of the color
ed women and children, all In black,
marching down Fifth Avenue, with
no bands, no oratorB, no disturb
ances, Blmply carrying banners ap
pealing for protection and Justice,
created a deep and lasting Impres
sion. Finally, In a sort of desperation,
the Germans spread tho llos far and
wldlo that negro soldlors wore being
sacrificed at tho front; they were
put in the most dnngorous places,
and whon wounded were loft to suf
'for and dlo unattended on the bnttlo-
field. Horo again tho boomerang
turned and hit the conspirators. If
they boiln't started the trencherous
propaganda the Amorlcnn public
would not hava heard Goneral Persh
ing s opinion of the colored troops.

mend 'too highly the spirit shown
among the colored combat troops
who exhibit fine capaoity for quick
training and eagerness for the most
dangerous work."
The bead of the Red Cross camq
forward to testify that the same card
'and attention was given by the so
ciety to the colored men as to tho
white.
Returning travelers and soldiers
add a few details. They say the
negro troops are tremendously popu
lar In all the French villages where
they are billeted, that their smart

every button Bhlnlng their unfail

bands and mellow singing voices,
and above all, the high spirits and
eagorneBS for the fight that they are
bringing to waroveary France Ib
arousing enthusiasm wherever they
go.

dangorius jobs?" The officers com
manding colored troops report that
the only complaints their men make
are against being held back. Tbey
beg for the first line; they glory In
the danger.
Thank you. Mr. German Propa
gandist, you have helped the peoplp
all over this country, east and west,
north and south, to realize that our
negro troops are men to be proud
of; loyal Americans every one of
them!
A man of forty-seven yearB of
age whoBe eyeB test better than the
20-20 standard of the army, whose
teeth are all there and all sound,
who Is big boned, of muscular build
and absolutely vigorous, has made
eight separate efforts to volunteer
his services, specifying a thorough
acquaintance with gas engines and
with photography; proving by
records of tho Now York state mili

and able to Instruct a company
inruntry without reference to
th
books, and In each case he has
been told in official letters from va
rlous army departments at Wash
lngton that ' Your age debars you
from active military service." There
must be several hundred thousand
similar men In the United States who
are able to render service, who are
largely trained, but are barred by
what aeems a senseles sarbitrary
