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

But also—that they do not stand
alone.
But have the support of count

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.
