Headquarters 92nd Division,
Camp Funston, Kansas.
Tho 92nd Division (Negro) National
Army Is In need of soldiers who can
qualify as stenographers, electricians,
auto-mechanics, machinists, pharma
cists, hospital attendants, clerks, typ
ists, saddlers, harness-makers, bakers,
horse-shoers, etc.
Through the co-operation 'of the
Press we have secured a number of
specially qualified men, but our needs
as yet have not been fully supplied.
Doubtless there are many Negro reg
istrants who are qualified to meet the
requirements of the Division, who will
be called sooner or later, and who are
willing to enter the military service
ahead of their turn on tho register
In order to serve. Reciprocally, there
are distinct advantages to such men
of entering tho Army when they are
needed most. In so doing they fit into
places for which they are best fitted
and which they prefer to fill.
I will appreciate very much, any pub
licity you can give this appeal.

Dear Mr. Crews:
I am enclosing herewith, at your re
quest, a few notes taken from this is
sue of Trench and Camp as well as
a leaf from the paper of the 365 Inf-
The multitude of details which have
crowded upon, me as a new comer at
Grant has prevented me from looking
after this news personally. However,
I can say even at this brief observa
tion that conditions here are ideal
when it comes to considering how
well the Negro is treated and utterly
absent any friction between white and
colored found in other camps.
From. Major Gen. Barry down
through all officers, line and staff, we
receive the highest consideration and
every wish and comfort of the men Is
looked after with speed and patience,
I feel sure you would relish a visit
this way, and I know the men would
be much inspired by your presence and
a cheerful message. j
