complaints have created “anxi

The senator made it clear in
his remorks that he is not at
tempting to judge the veracity
of the charges but rather to point
out the intent of the President
and the legislation establishing
selert^^ i^viee that the obj-*c-
tive be attained without racial
discrimination. He pointed oat
that Negroes are greatly re
stricted in the armed forces,
particularly in the air crops.
"Byj-the end of tl^is / ye»ji
there will bl more thiln
million Negro Americans
ing their country in onr armed
forces,” he told the senate.
"They will represent more than ,
10 per cent of all Americans
under arms. Their heroism,
their loyalty is unquestioned.
The records of such Negro he
roes as Uorie Miller at Peai’l
Harbor offer living testimony
of the will of the Negro people
to defend the heritage of free
dom and democracy which is the
birthright of all Americans.
