PROVIDENT HOSPITAL NURSES GRADUATE The Provident Hospital School of Nursing held its fifty-second grad uation at Provident Hospital in Chicago on Wednesday evening, June 30. A colorful ceremony was given by officials and twelve charm LEGION NEWS (BY JULIUS E. HILL) (Post Publicity Officer) The meeting Thursday evening a week ago will long be remmeber ed as the most orderly and congen ial one in the history of Roose velt Post. In spite of it being giv en over completely to the business of electing a commander and other MEN IN UNIFORM (By MYRTLE M. GOODLOW) A Soldier has pledged his life To his country, And regardless of color or nation ality— Should be treated humanly. It is unjust and so unfair That our men who now wear The uniform of our country And fighting in the name of Democracy, For justice and liberty Should be the victims of dis crimination and brutality. "Why should such a small thing As color of their skin, Cause them to be treated worse than any other American ? And when America fails to pro tect them— And continues to deny them equal rights, Beneath the Stars and Stripes How can she call them to the front— And ask them to fight and die like men, To preserve all that is Amer ican? And the pjrineiples she continues fo preach— Yet so far has failed to keep. When she refuses to grant them To the Loyal Negro American! Who is now called to fight To help keep freedoms torch alight! America is being weighed in the balances— Of justice and right! And found wanting in God’s most Holy sight. For America will never be The land of liberty in reality— Till segregation, discrimination, and jim crow, Becomes past history of the Loyal American Negro. Our fighting men. the black as well as the white. Will all be feeling alike, When they return from the deserts, jungles and dug-outs. They will not be cast aside or shoved about. For they know full well. The meaning of justice an! liberty. Having gone through death ini fiery hell— And when they return, America will quickly learn— They not only have ideas of their cwn— But also—that they do not stand alone. But have the support of count less others. tvho learned on the four corners ou the earth. That all men are brothers Regardless of color, creed or birth. They will not forgef that racial hate. Led the world into a sorry sta^e Xor will they forget the debt— The world owes to the men who fought— And with their life’s blood bought Justice and liberty for all hum anity! Thanks to our fighting men Of every race and creed, Fighting somewhere upon a battlefield, Paying the purchase price— For justice and equal rights. And when they come home to collect, America must not fail to pay her debt. (officers for the next year, not once was there the slightest show of , temper of a lack of comradeship among the legionnaires present. Yes, it is possible for our race to do things in a dignified way as well as the more so-called enlight ened races. The way the new members of the post are trying to do their part is very gratifying Most of them are veterans from World War Number 2 and seem proud that they are allowed to take such an active part and are being treat ed by the older members as though they were comrades from the first World War. Among the new members are ■any who possess executive abil ity. And if it were not for the ; tfine group of executives now serv ing the post, it would be regrett able that these young men must be a post member one year before they can hold such an office. With the Eighth District Conven tion here this Fall, it behooves ev every member of the Post to as ► in event wav to help make it a success. There are numerous ways in which e«c h can help wh * ttei he is a me-nber of some com mittee or not. So any informat ion as to whepi -ooffw can be Se cured for visiting legionnaires and other information that will contri bute to their comfort and welfar-3 while with us should be reported to some executive of the post if the chairman of the committee to whom the information would be ■helpful, or his co-workers are not known.
