In the mind of spectators and presumably the jur ors, is the picture oz a community organization, formed for mutual benefit, yet prowling abroad like a bloody jungle beast, showing its teeth to Negroes interested in little else. No one ever looks at the defendant. He sits unostentatiously beside his attorneys, a silent figui confident that he will be acquhti by a jury that has been loaded down with facts and innuendoes about an association that, from the subtlety with which it has been portrayed, might have had its origin on the murky ban its or the Kiver aryx.

(Applause.) There were 457 killed and 3.4GS wounded in these four regiments out of a battle strength of approximately 10.000. With the exception of the First and Second divisions there were not many Arrxvican divisions which had a higher xrcentage of killed and wounded.

All we ask here is to do away with this unjust discrimination against the heroism of Negro soldiers and erect this monument in France, which will be for all the time an inspiration to patriotism, loyalty and heroism for all of the colored people of America.

Following Mr. Asburys address, Attorney Robert L.

"We're for Vare because Vare is for us!" greeted the candidate.

He smiled his appreciation. He said, in nart: "Law enforcement is breaking down everywhere. The younger generation is subjected to moral dangers which sre the direct outgrowth of this condition. These are not fancied evils. They are real, and ereryone knows it.

"If I am not greatly mistaken the American people are tired of this condition and of the indefensible invasion of their jujt rights. The laborer, at the end of a weary day in the mines or factory, finds himself a criminal If he takes a glass of beer or light wine, and yet he knows that the more favored classes find little difficulty in having, well stocked wine cellars. Against this hypocrisy and inequality I protest. My candu dacy will gire an opportunity to the voters of Pennsylvania to express their views on this queation. "The people of this state have had full opportunity to tet the value of extreme prohibition, and they know the result.

They were promised a reign of law and they find widespread lawlessness; they were promised a contented and happy people and they find a people profoundly discontented and justly irritated: they were promised the improvement of public morals and. instead, they find the moral restraints of life broken down. this destruction of law and order and true temperance, my candidacy we ill be a protect."

The bill as passed by the House directs the American Battle Monu ments Commission to erect a suitable monument near Sechault, France, to commemorate the services of the 39th regiment, formerly the Fifteenth New York Infantry; the 370th regiment, formerly the Eighth Illinois; the 371st, a drafted regiment, and the 32d regiment, composed of separate battalions from Ohio and the District of Columbia and separate companies from Connecticut, Massachusetts and Maryland. They were attached to the French Army. That was the main reason given for seeking a separate monument.

The American Battle Monument. Commission planned the erection of a large monument about 10 miles from Sechault, France, which was captured on September 1918, after suffering heavy casualties bv the 369th Infantry and a part of the 372d with the 371st engaged in the same offensive a few miles on the left flank. It would have inscribed the names of the four Tegiments which fought at Sechault on this monument, which would have been in commemoration also of the operations of the Second Division and the Thirty sixth Division.
