i memory of my beloved nus-,
I Land
I r 4 MR. FLETCHER BROWN
^ Jtho % died six years ago, April
1938.
In life I loved you dearly,
?n death I do the same;
I often sit and think of you
And wish you were here again,
i think of you in silence,
No eyes can see me wen,.
But many a silent tear I shed
While others are fast asleep
Day by day I sadly miss you,
Friends may think the wound
is healed
But they little know the grief
That in my heart is concealed.
Surrounded by friends I am
lonesome,
In the midst of my pleasure
T, am worried;
A jpmle on my face, an ache
in my heart,
Grreving and longing for you.

MILS. MCI "IE A. ANDREWS
who departed this life one year
ago, April 21, 1943.
1 know your chair is empty ■
now.
But when I gaze on it I see
Dear eyes beneath a tranpuif
brow
That once so warmly on me
smiled.
T s :t without you, yet J feel
Your presence in the quiet
room; steal
And memories around me
That shine like candles in my
gloom.
Sometimes a living presence
rests
A weary head ppon your chair,
You are more real than any
guest
Who come to sit beside me
there.

recently one of the two cor
responded with Spaulding
brought up the subject of their
pact. the
This is substantially
story as the ANP learned it
from Dr. Williams:
Y'oung Spaulding had left
Howard in June, 1943, and
turned to Chicago where he
entered the Coffey School
Aeronautics to receive train¬
ing as a civilian pilot. His
course started in July and in
the same month he became a
member of the army air r;-_ r ps
reserve. This training con¬
tinued until September, 1943,
when the AAF took over the
entire civilian pilot training
program.
Cn September 14 he was for
sent to Fort Custer, Mich.,
induction and reclassifica¬
tion. Nine days later he was
sent down to Kessler field,
near Biloxi, Miss., for further
training. After waiting a-
round there for an assignment
to additional courses, without
any result, he was sent in De¬
cember to the airfield at Tus-
kegee, Ala., and then in Janu-
ary he was shipped to Greens¬
boro, N. C., for reclassification
in the army air force. He was
finally qualified as an army he
aviation cadet. In March
was he'came given a 14 day furlough
and le came to to Washington Washington to
visit his wife.
It was on the evening of the-
last day of his furlough, Mar.
28, that he committed* the, act.
From this point on his wife,
whose full name and address
are being withheld, told this
story to the ANP:
“We sat here most of the
evening and Norman was talk¬
ing about committing suicide,
out I didn’t think he was seri¬
ous. He always talked about
the problems of the race and
how badly Negroes are treated.
He wanted to do something
about it but somehow felt
helpless. for

The story of the Insult and
discrimination spread. When
the Red Cross a few days la¬
ter sought to obtain a regular
quota of blood donations at
the hospital, the Negro soldiers |
who normally give 60 to 120
pints, gave only 20 pints. The
resulting loss was from 5 to the 12
ga Ions. The men told
commanding officer their rea¬
son for refusing to give when
he inquired at the request of
the Red Cross.
And thus did a worker nulli¬
fy ail the good that the na¬
tional office of the Red Cross
was trying to accomplish in or¬
dering the jitterbug scene the
only scene showing the parti¬
cipation of Negroes in the war
removed from the Red Cross
film, “At His Side.’’
A full deletion, it has been
learned, is not possible. But
the scene will be removed from
all 16mm film used for educa¬
tional and training purposes
It cannot be cut by the Red
Cross out of the 35mm film
When the present bookings are
completed, however, the film
will be withdrawn from circu¬
lation.
The Red < ross could show its
further good faith by “cutting
off” the worker who author
ized the insult to some of our
wounded servicemen at Forest
