Buffalo Express Speaks Truth Concerning Real Conditions
The New York Herald is moved to this bit of sarcasm: "Having discovered that the European war is to have its final battle on the west or east front in Egypt or at sea, if it is not going to end in a stalemate, the New York Tribune now finds that millions of Negroes who are plotting a rebellion against the United States may probably will advise Mr. Wilson to let the erring Sengambian sisters go. There's the trouble. The South wants to negroes. The Negroes go—North to get better wages and living conditions—and will jump at this chance to have coerced into staying. It is not unlikely that German agents have been working among Southern Negroes to treat them in the American states. But, as the Buffalo Commissary out: "That tale of German efforts to stir up the Negroes of the South is one most ridiculous which has been heard. And had no better fighters in the American states Colored troops, and, after all, the true test of a man's devotion to his country is his willingness to give up his life for it."
The Tribune quotes a Negro editor as complaining of the treatment that his people have received from the Wilson administration. That complaint is made more ridiculous than the same man is made ridiculous to say: "The only why, in my opinion that President Wilson can get many Negro recruits for the army is to apprehend Roosevelt Secretary of War. Then the same man should frock, sure a special deal." The only comment needed is that Theodore Roosevelt was the President who directed William S. Johnson the Secretary of War, to issue the Infamous Order against the 25th (Negro) Infantry.
Roy Nash, secretary of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said in a case squately when he says: "Although the Wilson Administration, the great mass of the Colored people will be absolutely loyal to the United States in the war, the acting he blamed on the attitude of the administration which has made it plain that the Colored man is not wanted in the army. "There are four army regiments which are open to the army and the artillery and two of industry opened to the soldiers. If the army were open to Negroes on an equal basis they would flock to them." The great danger is that the South will use this story as a pretext for further oppression of the Negro. The slave migration to the North was bringing the South to a point, as their senses. Now federal officials are by the Associated Press as using the weird reasoning that the alleged promenant plot "are believed to be allied closely with the Southern Negroes in large numbers to Northern industrial centers."
Let the friends of the Negro be on the road—Buffalo Express (Daily) April 6.
