NEGRO ARMY REJECTIONS LIES IN INADEQUATE EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES SAYS COLONEL JOHNSON Back at his desk in the head quarters of the Selective Service System after 32 days absence, Col onel Campbell C. Johnson, execu tive assistant to Selective Servic Director Major General Lewis B. Hershey, had, (1) completed a :H0O mile tour of Army induction sta tions from North Carolina to Lou isiana, (2) been promoted from lieut enant coloi el to colonel. On his tour of induction stations. Colonel Johnson sought answers to these questions: Why the high rate of Negro rejections for failure pass the Army’s minimum intelli gence standards... Why the low percentage of those meeting the Army’s physical requirement ••slut - dards? When interviewed, he had this to say: “I concluded my tour with ttu conviction that the root of t<» fouhle lies in the inadequate edu cational facilities available to Ne gro youth, which results not only in lower intelligence but also in lower standards of health as a dir ect consequence. “Negro youth must be given a chance. Because they have not been given equal opportunities for learning, the Army is paying the. penalty. However, the Sel •cti've Service has managed, despite these handicaps, to recruit eligible you ths to the extent that today Ne groes comprise above 10 percent of the men inducted into the armed '' rough the Selective Serv ice System. Colone Johnson, a graduate of Howard University, is a membor of the Board of Parole of the Dis trict of Columbia and of the bar of the District of Columbia and of North Carolina. His rise in rank began in 1917 whe nhe was prom oted to first lieutenant of Infan try; by October 1918 he had risen to the rank of captain, becoming a major in September 1929. Pro moted to Lieutenant Colonel in 1942, he received his latest eleva tion on September 21, 1943. Captain Benson D. Mitchell is assistant to Colonel Johnson. He is a graduate of Howard Univers ity and was assigned to the Selec tive Service System in June 1942. |P-- if=", i “IT PAYS TO LOOK WELL MAYO'S BARBER SHOP l.adiea and Children's Work A Specialty 2422 LAKE ST.

There are others who purchase the so bonds because they aro working J «,t.!3ag?ra&.r.... SIa^ war jobs and the 10 percent is taken out of their pay. Then there aro others, who, because of th treatmnt of Negro es in this war, think it is smart to refrain from buying bonds. Aft i this war, bonds will be safe as the government. If you can spare tar cash and it does not inconvenience you to purchase bonds, invest you money in the safest thing this gov ernment has; “WAR BONDS.'’ In the last war this writer bought some of those LIBERTY BOND; because he had a few hundred dol lars cash. In 1922 an emergency arose where the sum of $200 was needed to transact a little business deal. After exhausting every otht r avenue cf raising this sum. t lies' bonds were cashed in and the deal was put through., Principally due to the fact that these bond- were available we were enabled to bridge a gap which eventually kept our business in tact. To this day we have never forgotten the incident. We also learned in conversing with some res who is in on the know; that too many people, who think it is smart, are cashing in their bonds as fast as they are in their posses i sion. If eyer a law is passed t hat will compel every one to save, by purehasing bonds (and it will come or something similar), the Negro will be the greatest beneficiary, be cause by nature he is the greatest j money waster in this country. There are times when we might n, ed ready cash due to sickness or death, but there is no need to cash every bond just because you ate allowed that privilege. When au tomobiles were rationed, some Ne groes had a good opportunity to save money, now whiskey is b -mg -a’ioned, another chance to sa\ b- nds; if some of you could live on J 518.00 a week less than 2 years a | why can’t you buy at least a ! I .00 b' nd each week? Billions | and billions of dollars are being spent. Taxes will mount in pro portion, when this war is over and it will end some day.
