In an interview recently, Lt.

Up on one occasion it was claimed that a personal letter was sent out from my office without a stamp, although the envelope was never produced. Another time I was ordered to stop signing letters written in my section to Colored soldiers, and friends because they wished them to be signed by a white man. This I refused to do and I was given to understand that if I did not do so, they would get someone who could carry out their orders. It was only after a two weeks fight that I was permitted to sign my name to letters originating in my section. Later I was forced to send my dictated letters down to another office where a white high school graduate approved and signed them, signing my own signature to my own letters before they were sent out. This was all done because there was fear that I would persist in helping a color of service men in matters pertaining to their insurance.
