course,  they  could  find  it  when  .s^r  in.f!. 
they  found  it  nete.nsary  to  reach  :  wiini-n 
it  Uut  to  many  of  them  It  was 
ju.sl  a  niiiiit>er  Iih  atcl  vaguely  in 
the  downtown  ."teitlon  of  the  city 
It  was  H  strange  loi.ition  for  a 
Negro  paper  at  that  At  the  end 
of  a  dark  hall,  inhabited  by  vague 
artists  and  polylinguistir  voices 
OuiB  was  not  the  only  paper  in 
the  building  There  was  a  Swiss 
patK-r  ni-xt  door  to  our  rooms  Or 
at  least  the  composing  room  of  a 
Swiss  pa(>er  Its  entire  staff  con- 
sisted of  a  single  silent  man  liv- 
ing in  a  strange  loneliness,  inter- 
rupted rarely  by  the  forceful 
voice  of  an  in-.isible  authority 
whiih  carae  to  us  through  the 
w-all  about  once  a  week  and  be-

have  office.s  across  the  hall  But 
he  was  most  of  the  time  up  in 
court  And  would  we  please  take 
any  phone  calls  that  rame  in

Cromwell,  had  invited  a  number 
jf  men  to  his  home  with  the 
ivowed  purpose  of  forming  a  p«r- 
.manent  a.saociaUon  to  bargain 
A'lth  steamdhip  employers  in  an 
iltempt  to  secure  work  on  the 
iock.H  during  the  present  strike, 
and  to  hold  those  jobs  should  the 
ow'ner.s  win  the  .strike  and  open 
shop  conditions  prevail  when  the 
-Strike    lb    ended

incorporate  the  group,  and  8  o'- 
clock. May  23  found  about  f/i  men 
in  peaceful  assembly  at  Crom- 
wells     home 

As  the  men  were  leaving  several 
rarloads  of  striking  longshoremeri. 
among  whom  were  L  H  Miller,

.5>(7  Athol  Avenue,  a  man  known 
as  Blackie."  all  white,  drove  up 
to  the  front  of  Cromwell's  house 
At  the  same  time  two  more  car- 
loads of  white  strikers  drove  up, 
rushed  out  of  their  cars  and  ran 
to  the  rear  of  the  house,  through 
the  garage  brandishing  iron  pipes, 
rockb.    black-jacks    and    pistols. 

There  were  some  shots  heard  in 
the  rear  yard  and  as  the  Negroes 
ran  back  into  the  house.  Crom- 
well came  out  of  tbe  front  door 
with  a  small  calibre  revolver,  and 
fired  at  the  massed  strikers  In 
the    street 

Miller  received  a  superficial 
wound  on  the  arm.  one  man  had 
his  hat  shot  through,  and  a  third 
-.vas  clipped  on  the  ear  by  a  bullet 

The  longshoremen  then  drove 
off.  disposed  of  their  weapons. 
and  returned  with  the  police  who 
arrested   Cromwell 

Cromwell,  at  his  preliminary

I  ( ourt    of    appeals    threw    a    bomb- 
shell   into   London    society    on    May 
«    when    It    overruled    the    decision  '■ 
hanried    -Jown    by    a    lower    court    in  j 
March  in   which  Clarence  N.   iTan- 

*Vly)       Johnston.       noted      vaudeville  j 
star,     w  t.     ordered     to     pay     Albert 
Sandler,    white     112.500   for   stealing 

I  his    wife  a    affection.s 

J  Sandler,  a  well-known  violinist, 
filed  suit  against  his  wife  for  di- 
vorce in  i:<33.  naming  one  Michael 
Davis  aa  corespondent  Later  he 
supplemented  thi.s  bill  by  naming 
Clarence  John.ston.  and  asking  for 
damage-s  igainst  the  actor  In 
March,  when  the  case  was  tried, 
it  created  -Aide  comment  in  Lon- 
don Mr-  .Sadler,  an  attractive 
woman  'ook  the  stand  tn  John- 
stons behalf,  and  testified  that 
her  husband  knew  of  her  affairs 
with    oth.-r    men 

After  tn.^  verdict.  m  which 
Sandler  was  granted  a  divorce 
and  $12,.V«r  Johnston  filed  an  ap- 
peal. cUuning  that  there  had 
been  collusion  between  Sandler 
and  others  and  that  this  collu- 
sion was  proved  w-hen  the  violinist 
dropped  his  original  petition  in 
favor  of  the  supplemented  one.  It 
was  the  appeal  which  was  granted 
in    John:iton's    favor 

Mrs.  Sandler,  who  openly  ad- 
mitted her  love  for  Johnston, 
was  with  him  in  court,  as  she 
has  been  with  him.  throughout

of  Layton  and  Johnston  were 
playing  at  the  time  of  the  decis-

the  wings  by  a  London  reporter, 
declared  "This  is  the  happiest 
day  of   my   life 

When  informed  that  the  decis- 
ion means  that  she  is  still  mar- 
ried to  Sandier,  Mrs  Sandler 
said:  "Yes.  I  know,  but  it  is  the 
triumph  of  right  that  maltaxa. 
and    I    feel    that    another    petition

PULLMAN  EMPLOYES 
FORCEDINTOCHARITY 


NEW  YORK.  June  t  Thou- 
sands of  furloughed  porters  and 
maids  have  been  forced  on  relief 
because  of  the  long,  inhuman 
hours  of  work  they  are  com- 
pelled to  make  by  the  Pullman 
Company,  in  utter  and  flagrant 
violation  of  the  labor  policy  of 
the  Roo'icvelt  Administration,  said 
A  Philip  Randolph,  National  Pres- 
ident of  the  Brotherhood  of  Sleep- 
ing Car  Porters,  at  tbe  headquar- 
ters, JOT  West  140th  Street,  New 
York  City  This  is  the  very  same 
company  which  is  the  first  to 
wave  the  flag  of  Americanism 
when  war  or  any  opportunity  is 
afforded  to  coin  the  sweat  and 
blood  of  the  workers  into  dollars 
and  dividends,  added  tbe  porters' 
leader 

Instead  of  reducing  hours  so  as 
to  provide  more  work,  the  Pull- 
man Company  is  busy  pooling 
and  chalnganging  lines  which 
causes  one  porter  to  do  twice  or 
more  the  number  of  round-trips 
he    formerly    made 

By  Its  notorious  speed-up, 
stretch-out  snd  sweatshop  system, 
the  Company  makes  the  Govern- 
ment assume  the  burden  of  pro- 
viding relief  for  porters  thrown 
out  of  employment,  while  it  es- 
capes the  loot  of  huge  profits, 
and  boasts  of  never  having  passed 
paying  a  dividend,  concluded  Ran-

in  f>akland  Toda.v 

Already     far  ing     a     sentence     of 

from   five   years   for   murder   in  the?^ 

second    degree    arising    out    of    the  | 

death    of    Mrs     Louise    Swartz.    Dr.  .• 

1 
Oscar   W    DeVaughn  went  on  trial 

in    Judge    Ogden  .s    court    today    for. 

.subornation    of     perjury,     a    felony, 

which    carries    a    .senten.e    of    frooat 

one   to   ten    years   in   the-    penitentl-' 

ary,    and    on    June     16    will    again 

face  the  court   for   violation  of  the; 

state    poison    act,   whose    penalty   is 

1    to    10   years,    both    latter   charges 

the     result    of    perjured     testimony 

giv6n    by    a    narcotic    addict.    Mrs. 

May       Peratti,       40.       124       Adeline 

Street,    at    the    Swartz    trial 

Mrs  Peratti,  at  the  trial,  testi-' 
fied  that  she  knew  Mrs  Swarts 
well  and  that  tbe  dead  woman' 
performed  the  abortive  operation 
on  herself  at  her  home  which  re- 
sulted in  her  death.  She  denied 
knowing     Dr      DeVaughn 

Later,  detectives  followed  her, 
and  saw  her  In  conference  with 
DeVaughn  at  his  office,  and  were 
present  when  she  and  her  hus- 
band raced  nude  to  their  front? 
door  to  accept  a  package  of  dope- 
delivered  by  a  Seventh  Street 
druggist 

The  state  contends  that  the  ac- 
cused doctor  induced  Mrs  Perattf" 
to  testify  as  she  did  through  in- 
fluence gained  over  her  by  pres- 
cribing for  her  and  her  husband 
an  unlimited  and  unlawful  amount 
of  drugs  Both  are  known  addicts, 
Peratti  having  tieen  confined  at 
Spadra  for  ain  attempted  cure 
some  time  ago.  He  is  now  an  in- 
mate   at    Fairmont    Hospital. 

Tbe  police  have  indicated  that 
prosecution  on  the  narcotics 
charge  will  probably  be  dropped 
if  DeVaughn  is  convicted  on  tha 
perjury    count. 

An  argument  for  a  rir  hearinrr 
on  the  murder  charge  was  d«i>ic4t 
by  Judge  Ogden  laat  week,  ^«tt  > 
an  appeal  to  the  higher  eourt  ia^ 
now     pending.  7t 

Dr    DeVaughn.   former   Georgia%. 
and    a    graduate    of    Mcharry    Col- 
lege, was  for  three  years  a  student 
at     Hastings    Law    School     in    Sa£

few    professionals    who    gave    aa-;.

pliment for  Yours  Truly.  Belore  the  combat,  I  received  a 
letter  from  Dixon,  asking  my  opinion  on  the  combat.  Our 
answer  was,  "Jones  can  win  if  he  cares  to,  but  the  bout  will 
probably  be  called  a  draw  and  the  aftermath  may  be  a 
return  match."  Dixon  took  our  tip  and  bet  on  Steele,  taking 
the  draw,  as  the  bout  finished.

Why  no  news  last  week?  and 
why  no  paper  this  week?  were  the 
questions  shot  to  me  from  every 
angle  while  at  the  ball  game  la.st 
Sunday.  For  a  while  I  tried  to

patriotic  societies  and  civic  bod-

ins  of    the    Auxiliary. 

It  was  a  singular  olncidence 
that  this  Negro  unit  was  sigpally 
honored  by  Its  napne  being  placed 
at  the  top  of  the  list  at  roll  call 
by  tboae  In  authority,  particularly 
since  Lynch  Camp  Is  the  younger 
and  smaller  of  the  group.  Strange- 
ly enough,  also,  is  the  fact  that 
flags  and  trophies  of  Negro  regi- 
ments are  more  onsplcuously 
displayed  than  those  of  other 
military  uniU!  After  all  this  is 
as  It  .  should  be  because  no  sol- 
diers in  the  Nation's  history  have 
achieved  more  glory  and  honor 
than    Negro    troops. 

In  the  afternoon,  under  the  aus- 
pices of  the  San  Francisco  County 
Council  of  the  ITnlted  Spanish 
War  Veterans,  with  President  H. 
W,  Glensor  presiding,  the  four

with  their  AuxiUaries  dipped  their 
Colors  in  respetful  salute  to  de-

Il  la  to  be  regretted  that  many

BE  CAREFUL 


.  .  .NOW! 

You  are  ii\  danger  of  being  robbed! 


KIDNAPPERS  AND  THIL\ES  arc  not  your  only  menace.  Dema- 
gogues anti  Job-seekers,  ix>liticians  and  their  hirelings,  glib  of 
tongue,  warm  of  hand,   ready  with  promises,  are  out  to  steal 
your  vote.  They  NEED  your  vote.  They  will  SAY  anything  to  get  it. 
BE  CAREFUL! 

Your  ballot  is  precious.  It  cost  the  blood  of  m>-riads  of  men.  the 
heads  of  kings  and  queens,  ^iie  destiny  of  empires.  (See  an  article  on 
{jage  six  discussing  one  phas^  of  the  struggle  for  the  right  to  vote.) 
It  is  YOUR  priceless  heritage  from  an  illustrious  past,  a  gift  to  be 
guarded  with  the  same  alert  devotion  with  which  you  watch  the  safety 
of  your  child  and  home.  But — 

,  BE  CAREFUL! 

This  privilege  of  voting  involves  the  duty  of  voting  intelligently.  If 
you  would  enjoy  the  benefits  of  good  government,  you  must  take  care 
that  government  is  GOOD.  Here,  especially,  you  need  to — 

BE  careful: 

"Constitute  government  how  you  please,"  said  Edmund  Burke, 
"the  greater  part  of  it  must  depend  upon  the  exercise  of  piowers  which 
are  left  at  large  to  the  prudence  and  uprightnes.s  of  ministers  of 
state."  In  other  words,  whether  your  government  is  good  or  bad  will 
depend  on  whether  your  public  officials  are  good  or  bad.  This  choice  is 
left  to  you. 

BE  CAREFUL! 

To  choose  good  public  officials,  you  must  avoid  past  errors.  Too 
long  have  you  been  persuaded  by  sentiment,  or  by  the  bombast  of  mer- 
cenary, irresponsible,  fly-by-night  propagandists.  Too  frequently  have 
you  been  duped  by  the  impotent  "endorsements"  of  fictitious  and 
mushroom  organizations.  These  errors  have  cost  you  recognition  and 
representation,  and  innumerable  other  benefits  of  citizenship. 
BE  CAREFUL! 

To  avoid  repeating  these  errors,  diM<riniinate  between  FACTT  and 
OPINION.  Be  sure  that  your  (act*  come  fro|B  KIrXIABLE  sourees. 
Choose  SOLKLV  on  the  basis  of  FACT!        •   ..     • 


YOUR  NEWSPAPER  is  the  MOST  REUABLE  .source  of  PO- 
UTICAL  INFORMATION.  .No  fly-by-night,  irresponsible  indi- 
vidual or  organization,  its  \cry  existence  depends  on  the  com- 
munity's confidence  in  its  REUABILITY.  Skilled  in  discriminating 
between  truth  and  hearsay,  its  chief  function  is  the  presentation  of 
FACT,  as  separate  from  and  more  important  than  OPINION.  EJm- 
powcred  by  the  Constitution  and  the  laws  with  extraordinary  privi- 
leges, it  has  access  to  sources  of  factual  information  which  the  individ- 
ual voter  cannot  reach.  These  three  factors — PRIVILEGE,  FACTS, 
RESJABILTTY — render  the  newspaper  indispensable  to  the  citizen 
who  refuses  longer  to  waste  time  at  demonstrations  of  spellbinding 
and  mass  hypnotism,  yet  who  is  resolved  to  exercise  fully  and  inde- 
pendently his  precious  prerogative  of  choosing  the  ministers  of  his 
sUte. 


THIS  NEWSPAPER,  especially,  merits  your  confidence  in  the 
authenticity  of  its  political  information.  Its  two-and-a-half-year 
record  of  steadfast  fidelity  to  the  w^elfare  of  its  readers — FRE- 
QUENTLY AT  THE  RISK  OF  ITS  OWN  SURVIVAI^-is  sufficient 
proof  that  it  has  no  axe  to  grind,  that  it  is  committed  to  no  party  or 
person. 

In  spite  of  precedent  and  present  usage  to  the  contrary.  The 
Spokesman  refuses  to  suppress  news  derogatory  to  an  advertiser  or 
subscriber,  when  that  news  involves  the  public  interest;  or  to  accept 
fraudulent  or  questionable  advertisements,  although  this  policy  loses 
a  substantial  income:  or  to  flatter  and  pamper  petty  organizations  or 
self-styled  leaders,  although  not  doing  so  makes  enemies. 

The  Spokesman's  career  has  been  one  of  aggressive,  self-effacing 
struggle,  in  which,  more  often  than  otherwise,  it  lacked  both  the 
approval  and  support  of  the  people  it  seeks  to  serve. 

It  denounced  Shortridge  and  praised  Roosevelt  when  all  of  its 
compeers  were  either  silent  or  "on  the  fence." 

It  printed  editorial  opinion  that  even  powerful  dailies  are  afraid  to 
touch. 

It,  alone  in  California,  decried  stupid,  obsolete  church  practices 
and  incompetent,  dishonest  preachers  at  a  time  when  the  church  is  the 
strongest  group  organization  and  pulpit  racketeers  are  receiving  both 
the  adulation  and  the  hard-earned  pennies  of  the  public. 

It  exposed  fakes  at  the  risk  of  Ubel  suits,  deplored  mediocre  stan- 
dards despite  popular  disapproval,  and  continued  to  present  facts  and 
the  interpretation  of  facta  in  accordance  with  its  judgment  of  good 
journalism  and  community  needs. 


THE  SPOKESMAN  proposes  to  continue  this  policy,  especially  in 
the  dissemination  of  political  information.  Before  the  August 
primaries  it  shall  attempt  to  interview  ALL  aspirants  for  public 
office  seeking  election  in  communities  covered  by  its  circulation.  Infor- 
mation about  these  persons,  their  records,  ideas  and  ideals,  will  be 
presented  to  you  as  facts,  WITHOUT  EXAGGERATION  OR  DISTOR- 
TION. 

When  the  time  comes  for  you  to  decide.  The  Spokesman  wiU 
submit,  IN  A  SEPARATE  COLUMN,  its  OPINION  concerning  the 
aspirants.  This  opinion  will  be  presented  cleariy,  simply,  briefly,  with- 
out bombast  or  equivocation.  It  is  to  guide  you  in  making  a  choice if 

you  wish  guidance.  You  may  agree  or  disagree,  approve  or  disapprove. 
The  FACTS  will  be  yours  to  interpret  as  you  choose. 

This,  The  Spokesman  believes  to  be  no  more  and  no  less  than  a 
newspaper's  duty  to  its  readers  and  the  nation.  In  the  interest  of  good 
government,  it  is  submitting  this  announcement  to  ALL  potential  can- 
didates of  ALL  parties,  and  will  publish  weekly  the  results  of  inter- 
views with  these  persons. 


Your  newspaper  is  the  most  reliable  source  of  political  information 


You  can  rely  on 
its  loyalty  to  you

Mr.^,  Gordon  looked  In  vain  for 
those  flourishing  business  enter- 
prises of  which  you  all  .have 
heard  too  much.  So  far  as  she 
could  see,  the  only  thing  that 
seems  to'  be  really  flourishing  to 
the  eastward  is  the  Depression. 
In  fairness  to  the  east  Mrs.  Gor- 
don feels  that  the  Depression  is 
more  in  evidence  among  Negroes 
there  than  it  is  here  because  the 
Negroes  themselves  are  more  in 
evidence  It  is  with  the  same 
charitable  spirit  that  she  views 
the  dilapidated  state  of  most  of 
the  business  structures  occupied 
by  Negroes  in  the  south  and  east. 
She  feels  that  Father  Time  will 
eventually  wredk  the  same  havoc 
on  Central  Avenue  in  Los  Ange- 
les that  is  now  evident  on  one 
hundred  and  thirty  fifth  Strefet 
In  New  York  City  and  other  typ- 
ical  Negro   districts'. 

She  observes  that  the  IjuSlness 
men  are  not  very  busy,  the  bnsi- 
est  being  those  engaged  in  super- 
vising colored  workers  on  CWA 
and  other  Federal  relief  projects. 
Mrs.  Gordon  ably,  represented 
the  Linden  Branch  at  the  Nation- 
al y.  W.  C.  A.  conference  and  had 
a  splendid  opportunity  to  gather 
first  hand  information  on  condi- 
tions in  the  east. 

She   concluded    the   interview    by 
saying   that   she   has   decided   that 
California  is  not  so  bad,  after  all. 
But    to   get    back    to    the    photo- 
graphy- -maybe       the       Depression

Members  of  the  Cleverette  Club 
presented  the  program  for  the 
Forum  sponsored  by  the  Carpe 
Dlera  Girls'  Club  of  San  Fran- 
cisco last  Sunday  afternoon  at 
the  Booker  T.  Washington  Com- 
munity Center.  Miss  Lillian  Mene- 
weather,  who  acted  as  chairman 
of  the  program  was  very  clever  in 
the  presentation  of  the  numbers. 
The  theme  of  the  afternoon  was 
"Woman's  Place-  In  the  Home  ot 
In  Business?"  A  girls'  chorus, 
consisting  of  members  of  the  club 


Bay  City  Clubs 


opened  the  program  by  singing 
"Rose  in  the  Bud"  which  was  fol- 
lowed by  Miss  Jean  Barbel'  giving 
a  very  excellent  talk  on  "Woman's 
Place  In  the  Home."  She  showed 
how  the  home  life  and  environ- 
ment created  by  the  woman  was 
^  Instrumental  in  molding  other 
lives  and  making  happy  individ- 
uals. A  piano  solo  was  beautifully 
rendered  by  Miss  Georgetta  Yeb- 
by.  Because  the  n(Dtto  of  the 
Carpe  Diem  Girls'  Club  is  "Be 
Great  Today,"  Miss  Muriel  Ander- 
son told  how  one  could  be  great 
by  reading  Paul  Laurence  Dun- 
bar's   poem    "Trudging    Away." 

The  other  side  of  the  topic  of 
the  day,  "Woman's  Place  in  Bus- 
iness" was  ably  given  by  Miss 
Anna     Beachman. 

The  program  wa.s  concluded 
with  the  girls  singing  "Smllln' 
Through." 


Ring  Wearers 
The  Ring  Wearers'  Club  held 
their  meeting,  Wednesday  May 
23.  This  year  the  girls  are  carry- 
ing out  an  educational  as  well  as 
an  interesting  program.  Each  girl 
is  taking  the  subject  in  which 
HAS    turned    those    beautiful    pic- '*•'•'    '"    particularly   interested    and 


tures  into  caricatures;  so  you 
southern  and  eastern  gala  had 
better  go  and  get  a  fresh  look  at 
the  old  home  town  before  contin- 
uing the  usual  "after  bridge" 
practice  of  making  cruel  compari- 
sons between  the  social,  intellec- 
tual ahd  economic  status  of  the 
Negrpcs  in  California  and  those 
in  other  sections.  Indeed  the 
southern  and  eastern  "upstarts" 
have  prated  of  their  superiority 
to  such  a  great  extent  that  the 
once  pi'9ud  native  daughters  are 
now  rather  reluctant  to  admit  the 
fact;  and  more  than  one  have 
been  heard  .  actually  describing 
their  homes  in  Tennessee  or  Mis- 
sissippi    or    some     other    southern 


is  keeping  a  book  of  the  lives  of 
all  the  outstanding  Negroes  in 
that    siiecial    field 

At  the  lakt  meeting  the  lives 
and  work's  of  James  Weldon  John- 
son and  R.  Nathaniel  Dett  was 
given    and    discussed.

SUMMER  FICTION  RELIEVED 
BY  REALISM  OF  VARDIS 


By  Catherine  That«r 

•  .  .  "wth  summer  coming  on  ...  " 

Which  is  the  cue  for  the  yearly  flood  of  light  fiction; 
headed  by  a  nuinbt-r  of  good  detective  novels.  Some  of  our 
best  critics  are  cheering  for  a  new  addition  to  the  amajl 
group  of  "naturals"  in  the  sleuthing  game,  one  Mr.  Pinker- 
ton,  who  visits  Scotland  Yard  and  his  intimate  friend  and 
ideal,  the  In.-?pector.  It  is  Mr.  Pinkerton's  goml  fortune  to  be 
able  to  assist  in  thu  solution  of  a  murder  which  has  all 

Scotland     Yard     puzzled,     and     he» ; . 

does    it    in    a    natural,    unassuming 


The  joint  chapters  of  Alpha 
IC.ippa  Alpha  Sorority  were  host- 
«.s.ses  to  the  June  graduates  on 
May  2G  nt  the  home  of  Soror 
Helen  Jackson.  The  sorors  of  the 
three  local  chapters  had  as  their 
gue.its  the  following  high  school 
seniors:  Vera  Griffen,  Doris  and 
Marie  Mitchell,  Dorothy  Hicks, 
and  Ed.ia  Woods;  Soror  Ernes- 
tine Kneelc  of  Howard  University 


Te  monthly  Forum  of  the  Carpe 
Diem  Club  on  Sunday  afternoon 
was  favored  with  a  most  delight- 
ful progrnrii  rendered  in  Its  en- 
tirety by  the  Cleverettes  Club  of 
the  Linden  Hranc  Y.  W.  C  A. 
Oakland.  A  large  audience,  made 
up  mostly  of  young  people,  sowed 
genuine  enthusiasm  for  each  num- 
ber of  the  program.  Miss  Lulu 
Chapman,  advisor  of  the  Clever- 
ettes gave  a  few  brief  remarks 
which    were    most    gratifying.  I

vices. 


manner  which  makes  all  his  ac- 
tions credible.  If  you  like  that 
sort  of  fiction,  we  recommend 
"Mr.  Pinkerton  Visits  Scotland 
Yard,"    by    Duvld    I-Yome. 

For  those  who  like  their  talcs 
of  the  Southern  Negro  coated 
with  the  cloying  sweetness  of  the 
Petcrkin  school,  there  is  'Roll 
Jordan,  Roll"  by  Julia  Peterkin! 
This  novel  is  written  from  the 
viewpoint  of  a  Southern  woman 
who  represents  the  Negro  us  a 
lov.-ible  species  of  moron  who  is 
happily  dependent  on  his  white 
folks.  However,  Mrs  I'eterkin  has 
the  knack  of  making  her  stofies 
interesting  and  so  finds  many 
sympathetic  readers.  Slje  pens 
Negro  dialect  expertly,  which  adds 
to  her  .style,  and  she  chooses  in- 
cidents which  could  occur  in  any 
persons  life,  which  she  embel- 
lishes with  colloquialiHois  that, 
being  odd  to  those  unacquainted 
with  the  regions  from  which  they 
come,  prove  highly  Interesting.  In 
this  book  she  sketches  a  series  of 
human     intere.st    stories 


some  of 
them  deal  with  one  Jinny,  who, 
discovering  that  her  man  has 
two  timed  her,  took  a  carving 
knife  to  him  to  teach  him  the 
error  of  his  ways;  he  refused  to 
testify  against  her  in  court,  she 
won  a  suspended  sentence  and 
took    her    man    back    as    a    reward 


another  sketch  tells  of  the  tragedy 
of  the  woman,  deaf,  who  gave 
birth  to  an  illegltlmnle  child  and 
then  killed  It  because  the  father 
would  not  acknowledge  her.  And 
so    on 

Stronger  fare   is  afforded   in  the 
second  of  u  series  of  three   novels 
by    Vardis    Fi.sher,    "Passions    Spin 
the    Plot,"    whuh    brings    back    his 
original       hero,       Vridur       Hunter, 
whose   unhappy  ehildhuod  and  ter- 
rified      adolescence       formed       the 
theme  of    "In  Tragi.    Life '    At   the 
age    of     HI    Vridar    Hunter    enters 
college,     finds     il     interesting     des- 
pite  his  scarecrow  existence  there; 
in  time   the   novelty   wears   off.   his 
ideals     are     undermined     and     his 
affairs     with     women     bring     final

the    story     He    trieh    to    break    off 
with    her,    but   her   Imld    proves   too

does  his  best  to  become  a  seducer,

We«k  of  June  7,  1934 


SUNNY  JIM  ROLPH— 

FRIEND  AND  COMPANION 

ALL    CAUFORNIA    mourned    last    week 
for    Sunny    Jim    Rolph.    For    Governor 
James   Rolph,   Jr.,    few   lamented. 

This,  observation  is  made  at  no  least 
sacrifice  of  the  reverence  which  properly 
belongs  to  the  dead.  Nor  is  it  prompted  by 
either  cynicism  or  resentment.  Far  from 
it!  To  the  contrary,  if  we  would  find 
meaning  in  the  careers  of  our  contempo- 
raries, we  must  see  clearly,  with  vision 
jndimmed  by  tears  and  minds  set  free  of 
passion. 

The  conc'uct  of  affairs  of  state  is  a 
grim  business,  requiring  a  character  sober 
slnd  stem,  and  purged  of  all  predisposition 
to  heed  or  harbor  sentiment.  Statesmen 
cannot  be  pliant. 

Measured  by  this  unfeeling  yardstick, 
the  death  of  James  Rolph,  Jr.,  cannot  be 
regarded  as  a  great  loss  to  the  Common- 
wealth of  California. 

Governor  Rolph  was  first  and  last  a 
politician.  When  separated  from  the  coun- 
sel of  his  advisors,  he  blundered  unpar- 
donably.  No  incident  better  serves  to  il- 
lustrate this  failing  than  his  untimely  and 
impassioned  condonation  of  the  San  Jose 
lynching.  Only  a  man  in  whom  the  emo- 
tions enjoyed  a  liberty  altogether  dispro- 
portionate to  the  free  exercise  of  judg- 
ment could  have  committed  so  colossal  a 
liolitical  indiscretion. 

Yet,  the  Governor,  divested  of  his  of- 
ficial vestments  and  in  the  character  of 
num  and  intimate,  was  beloved.  His  friv- 
olities and  extravagances  were  regarded 
with  amused  tolerance  by  a  people  more 
ai^reciative  of  the  spectacular  tiian  con- 
Oemed  about  good  government.  His  gar- 
<|eniaB  and  boots,  rather  than  his  official 
acta,  were  looked  upon  as  typifying  the 
puldic  will.  As  a  public  servant  he  failed; 
as  a  man  he  succeeded  remarkably  well. 


It  is  a  matter  for  wonder  whether  a 
people  who  preferred  a  Rolph   to  govern 
tbem   actually   deserved   a    man    of   more 
austere  temper.  To  this  question  we  shaU 
soon    have    an    answer.    It    ought    to    be 
remembered,  however,  that  government  in- 
competently   conducted,    no    matter    how 
^pular,  is  not  a  paying  investment.  For  a 
time  society  may  wear  the  appearance  of 
{troeperity  and  contentment,  but  the  cumu- 
lative  effect   of   continuous   petty   abuses 
will,  strike    soon    or    late.    Let    us    have 
grave,  unyielding  men  for  public  officials; 
[j»y,  kindly  men  for  friends  and  compan- 
ions.

»      AN   ESCAPE  FROM  ENNUI 

IBGINNING  on  the  third  Sunday  of  this 
month,  the  San  Francisco  branch  of  the 
N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  will  resume  its  program  of 
regular  public  meetings,  in  an  attempt  to 
3»eet  the  community's  need  for  intellec- 
tual stimulation.  Formerly,  these  meetings 
fftiled  to  arouse  popular  enthusiasm;  but 
IJhe  present  directors,  encouraged  by  the 
success  of  their  recent  membership  drive, 
bdieve  renewed  efforts  will  receive  a  fa- 
vorable response. 

The  Spokesman  concurs  in  their  opin- 
ion. To  our  way  of  thinking  the  people  of 
this  community  are  "bored  to  tears"  with 
the  lifeless,  mediocre  activities  offered 
tliem  continuously  by  unimaginative  or- 
ganization beads.  Not  even  the  dullest  of 
kumans  can  attend  teas,  bridge  parties 
•ad  dances,  three  hundred  and  sixty-five 
days  a  year  without  suffering  some  feeling 
of  ennuL 

A  program  of  regular  public  meetings, 
In  which  the  pressing,  vital  questions  of 
the  day  and  the  particular  problems  of 
tilis  community  are  discussed  intelligently 
%]r  sMe  speakers  will  be  appreciated  by 
never  bafore  known  to  have  ex- 
Interest  in  the  National  Associa- 
lloa.  It  will  be  another  means,  too.  of  edu- 
of  entertainment,  and  of  the  for- 
of  valuAUe  inter-racial  alliances.

:  has  Intsnded  to  make  for  some 

.wUhbeld  because  of  its  in- 

.lk9  Omonfe  bm  Sfatast 


Diiscegenation  should  be  repealed. 

7  he  aikfwi-cnt   imprijbability — even   im- 
pos.':ibility — of  repealing   this  law  should 
not  deter  those  who  wish  it  done.  Indeed, 
't   is  our   belief   that   they   constitute   the 
miijciity.  The  racial  problem  in  this  state 
is  cf  course  complicated  by  the  presence 
of    large    numbers    of    Oriental    peoples, 
^   witli   whom   tradition   says   the   West   can 
never  meet.   But  to  all  far-seeing  Ameri- 
cana, who  can  envisage  this  nation  as  a 
comjiosite  society'  of  homogeneous  peoples 
and    institutions,    the    idea    of    biological 
amalgamation  Is  far  from  repugnant. 

So  impoi-tant  is  this  concept  to  pos- 
terity and  the  present  direction  of  the 
social  process,  its  approval  ought  to  be  a 
test  of  the  fitness  for  leadership  of  all 
a8i)iraiits  for  public  office.  A  man  who 
subscribes  to  the  myth  of  racial  integrity, 
and  who  advocates  the  bi-racial  method 
for  solving  difficulties  between  races,  is 
unfit  to  guide  or  administer  the  destinies 
of  his  fellows.  He  has  no  social  vision.  He 
*8  un-American.  And  he  will  either  permit 
the  inevitable  discriminations  and  injus- 
tices which  bi-racialism  entails,  or  take 
sfctive  part  in  abusing  the  weaker  race. 

Lincoln  said,  "This  nation  cannot  en. 
dure  half -slave,  half  free."  It  is  merely  an 
extension  of  his  thought,  impelled  by  the 
same  inexorable  logic,  which  now  says, 
"The  American  of  tomorrow  will  be  a  man 
in  whose  veins  the  blood  of  many  races 
flows,  in  whose  temper  is  the  disposition 
of  every  clime,  in  whose  history  is  the  tale 
of  man's  conquest  of  stupidity  and  fear."

•HALF  A  LOAF' 

pOLORED  veterans  of  Vallejo,  members 
*'of  the  Captain  Charles  Young  Camp, 
No.  21,  U.  S.  Spanish  War  Veterans,  may 
not  occupy  a  portion  of  the  Vallejo  Vet- 
erans' Memorial  Building,  according  to  a 
decision  handed  down  last  week  by  Super- 
ior Judge  W.  T.  O'Ponnell.  The  veterans 
had  forfeited  their  right  to  the  building  by 
accepting  part  of  the  building  fund  for 
SEPARATE  use.  This  is  the  time  for  all 
good  champions  of  separate  Negro  insti- 
tutions to  come  to  the  fore  and  explain 
away  this  gigantic  piece  of  stupidity. 

Aframericans  as  Negroes  will  gain  or 
achieve  nothing;  as  Americans  a  world  of 
opportunity  awaits  them.  How  long  must 
it  be  before  they  realize  that  IN  EXACT' 
PROPORTION  AS  NEGRO  INSTITU- 
TIONS MULTIPLY,  SEGREGATION 
AND  DISCRIMINATION  INCREASE. 
Meditation  on  this  thought  should  bring  a 
change  of  mind,  a  change  of  behavior,  and 
immediate  effectiveness  as  a  community 
force.

OUT  FOR  BLOOD 

GEORGIA'S  ruling  class  whites  want 
blood,  and  it  seems  that  the  state's  Su- 
preme Court  has  paved  the  way  for  the 
fulfillment  of  that  desire.  Last  week  the 
highest  tribunal  of  the  chain-gang  com- 
monwealth voted  to  affirm  the  18-  to  20- 
year  sentence  given  Angelo  Hemdon, 
young  Communist  and  organizer  of  the 
unemployed.  Hemdon  was  found  guilty  of 
"inciting  to  insurrection,"  an  offense  pun- 
ishable by  long  imprisonment  or  death 
under  an  old  slave  law. 

The  real  infraction  for  which  Hemdon 
is  being  punished  was  distribution  of  ra- 
cial literature  urging  the  abolition  of  the 
color  line  and  organization  of  black  and 
white  workers,  and  outlining  the  platform 
of  the  Communist  party.  Six  other  organ- 
izers, including  two  colored  men  and  two 
white  women,  are  out  on  bail.  John  A. 
Hudson,  assistant  solicitor  general,  will 
ask  the  death  penalty  for  them  on  the 
basis  of  the  Hemdon  ruling. 

The  International  Labor  Defense  pro- 
poses to  appeal  to  the  United  States  Su- 
preme Court  against  this  decision,  which 
deiues  the  right  to  free  expression  and 
j)enali7.o8  men  for  their  political  and  social 
convictions.  It  is  imperative  that  the  Hem- 
don ruling  must  be  reversed.  If  it  stands 
we  may  not  be  entirely  wrong'  in  predict- 
ing that  some  day  the  conservative  Inter- 
racial Commission  will  be  brought  on  the 
carpet  for  advocating  the  end  of  racial 
discrimination  and  lynching. — Amsterdam

SCRUBBING-BRUSH    SOLDIERS 

COLORED  America  has  deserted  the  col- 
ored soldiers.  Little  protest  has  it  made 
against  the  tuming  of  the  Ninth  and 
Tenth  Cavalry  and  the  24th  Infantry,  into 
servants,  "dog  robbers,"  mere  horse 
^roomers — scrubbing-brush  soldiers.  They 
have  been  disarmed,  sent  to  various  offi- 
cers' training  schools,  put  to  work  at  most 
unsoldierly  tasks.  Their  arms  have  been 
irtacked.  They  have  been  issued  soap 

and  scrubbing  bmshes.— Pittsburg  Courier

Fifteenth  Amendment.  This  was 
the  greatest  victory  scored  by 
Negroes  in  a  generation  for  the 
right  to  vote,  rendering  invalid  as 
it  did  oil  such  discriminatory  leg- 
islation passed  by  the  southern 
states. 

INSTRUCTING 
NEGRO    VOTES 

During  the  war  period  1917-lg, 
the  Association  was  active  not 
only  in  combatting  efforts  to  stop 
Negroes  from  voting  but  in  also 
instrucUng  them  in  the  use  of 
the  ballot  and  urging  them  to  reg- 
ister. The  Atlanta  branch  in- 
creased the  colored  registration 
there  from  700  to  3,000  and  suc- 
ceeded in  relieving  the  deplorable 
school  conditions  by  securing  a 
new  grammar  school.  Similar  In- 
cr-Bse  in  rtgistraton  got  four

the  case  was  appealed  to  the  U.

The  vital  necessity  of  winning 
this  suit  became  more  apparent 
after  the  Arkansas  primary  case,

tributed $200,  was  held  by  the  U.

decisive  victory  when  Federal  dis-

The  El  Paso  branch  immediately

1927,  the  U.  S.  supreme  court  by

discriminatory  Texas  law  uncon-

affected  the  status  of  ail  primary 
elections   In   the    United   States. 

Balked  by  the  Association's  vic- 
tory, the  Texas  legislature  then 
sought  to  exclude  Negroes  from 
parly  primaries  by  passing  in 
1928  an  enabling  act  providing 
that  the  Democratic  State  Com- 
mittee should  have  the  power  to 
determine  who  Is  qualified  to

had  fought  the  flr<t  Texas  white

lawyers  in  Little  Rock,  Ark.,  also 
obtained  a  temporary  injunction 
restricting  election  officials  there 
from  denying  Negroes  the  right

RACE  TRACK  FANS 
CALLED  GULLIBLE 

Readers'  Foruni 


EDITOR':  The  article  in  your 
paper,  date  May  24  under  the 
title.  Race  track  refuses  entry  to 
Club  House,  and  sUtes  that  the 
El  Corrlto  Dog  Track  is  the 
mecca  for  hundreds  of  Negroes 
who  flock  to  the  RACES  to  lay 
their  money  down  on  the  table 
in  nightly  donations  at  the  option 
of    the    Booths. 

Now  I  am  wondering  o  few 
things;  if  the  persons  refused 
were  paid  up  members  of  the  N. 
A  A  C.  P.,  just  what  percentage 
of     those     same     hundreds     are 


geon;  R.  D.  Patton.  Chaplain;  L. 
L.  McCleary.  Patriotic  Instructor; 
George  F  Kohler,  Historian.  Mrs. 
Anna  C  Badorf,  President:  Mrs 
Mary  Glaze,  Senior  Vice  and  Mrs. 
Lucy  Addington,  Junior  Vice. 
Congratulations!

HUGHES  TALKS  ON 
TRAGEDY  OF  RACE 


By  Mation  Roben>oii 

"The    way    of    While    folks. 
I    mcon    .SOME    white    folks  " 

Mr.  Hughes  talks  of  tragedy— 
and  tragedy  that  goes  far  beyond 
any  one  human  life  or  group  of 
lives.  It  partakes  of  the  nature  of 
mankind:  it  Is  part  of  his  history 
and  part  of  himself  in  the  mass. 
And  it  seems  almost  beyond  our 
power  to  correct.  Of  course,  Mr. 
Hughes  deals  with  the  matter  of 
prejudice,  but  he  deals  with  it  la 
a  restrained  narrative  manner 
that,  for  the  Negro  reader,  brings 
the  book  Into  a  class  with  the 
somber  despair  of  "All  Quiet  on 
the  Western  Front,"  'The  Well  of 
Loneliness,"  and  "Strange  Inter- 
lude" What  he  says  In  his  stories 
is  known  to  us  all  but  he  pos- 
sesses the  artists  power  of  making 
it    immensely    vivid. 

Some    years    ago    a    Miss    Corra 
in     an     essay     about     the 


lames    A    Cobb,   Archibald   Orimke)  Texas      District       Appeol      was      at

District  of  Columbia  branch  ap-

Following     the      granting      of      n    my   answer    !■.     Oh   yeah,   one    who 


south,  mentioned  the  fact  thai 
the  Negro  has  an  understanding 
of  white  people  based  on  an  Inti- 
mate and  at  the  same  time  dl- 
vorce  conUct  with  their  lUt. 
Someday,  she  said,  a  Negro  would 
write  of  what  he  knows  It  woul4, 
she  thought,  be  one  of  the  most 
completely  revealing  studies  of 
American    life    ever    published. 

And  now  we  have  Langston 
Hughes'  Way  of  White  Folks' 
which  stUcks  just  that  task  and 
does  it  not  only  out  of  an  intimate 
knowledge  of  the  white  man  as  he 
I*  seen  by  the  Negro,  but  with  ■ 
rarer  understanding  since  bis  val- 
ues have  been  shaped  and  wid- 
ened  by  travel  abroad 

The  product  is  not  academic 
The  collection  of  short  storlea 
which  makes  up  this  book  is 
biased  It  is  definitely  what  • 
Negro  thinks  of  the  white  foll^t. 
And  necessarily  bitteroess  warps 
the  pictures  of  the  white  charac- 
ters Not  that  Mr  Hughes  dlt- 
torU.  He  is  far  too  able  an  artist 
lo  do  anything  like  that.  His 
Characters  ring  true,  always  It  Is 
Just  that  his  choice  of  white  folks 
fell  among  those  wl|o  embodied 
the  white  man  as  he  is  known  lo 
the  Negro  when  he  thinks  of  the 
things  the  white  man  has  done  lo 
his  race    It  is  to  be  regretted  that

itiroat  from  ear  to  ear  and  then 
attempted  to  cover  his  crime  by 
wrapping  her  in  paper  and  selling 
tire   to    her    body. 

The  dead  woman,  Lucille  Lewis. 
32.  attractive  cosmetologist,  was

in  a  fire  alarm.  Her  head  had 
been    almost    decapitated.

slitting  the  throats  of  sneep  in 
Wilsons  Packing  company,  was 
picked  up  two  hours  later,  and 
bloody  clothes  found  in  his  tmnli 
linked  him  lo  the  slaying.  He 
later  confessed  lo  Newton  Station 
police    officers.

other  friends  had  spent  the  eve-

bead  back  and  drew  the  blade 
across  her  throat.  He  then  turned 
on  all  gas  jets  and  fired  tbe  place 
In  an  effort  to  destroy  traces  of 
the    murder.

You  are  In  danger  of  being  robbed! 


YOUR  NEWSPAPER  is  the  MOST  RELIABLE  source  of  PO- 
UTICAL  INFORMATION.  No  fly-by-night,  irresponsible  indi- 
vidual or  organization,  its  very  existence  depends  on  the  com- 
munity's confidence  in  its  REIJABIUTY.  Skilled  in  discriminaUng 
between  truth  and  hearsay,  its  chief  function  is  the  presentation  of 
FACT,  as  separate  from  and  more  important  than  OPINION.  Em- 
powered  by  the  Constitution  and  the  laws  with  extraordinary  privi- 
leges, it  haa  access  to  sources  of  factual  information  which  the  individ- 
ual voter  cannot  reach.  These  three  factors — PRIVILEGE,  FACTTS, 
RELIABILITY — render  the  newspaper  indispensable  to  the  citizen 
who  refuses  longer  to  waste  time  at  demonstrations  of  spellbinding 
and  mass  hypnotism,  yet  who  is  resolved  to  exercise  fully  and  inde- 
pendently his  precious  prerogative  of  choosing  the  ministers  of  his 
sUte. 

THIS   NEWSPAPER,   especially,   merits   your   confidence   in    the 
authenticity  of  its  political  information.  Its  two-and-a-half-year 
record  of  steadfast  fidelity  to  the  welfare  of  its  readers — FRE- 
QUENTLY AT  THE  RISK  OF  ITS  OWN  SURVIVAI^is  sufficient 
proof  that  it  has  no  axe  to  grind,  that  it  is  committed  to  no  party  or 
person. 


THE  SPOKESMAN  proposes  to  continue  this  policy,  especially  in 
the  dissemination  of  political  information.  Before  the  August 
primaries  it  shall  attempt  to  interview  ALL  aspirants  for  putdic 
office  seeking  election  in  communities  covered  by  its  circulation.  Infor- 
mation about  these  persons,  their  records,  ideas  and  ideals,  wMl  be 
presented  to  you  as  facts,  WITHOUT  EXAGGERATION  OR  DISTOR- 
TION. 


When  the  time  comes  for  you  to  decide.  The  Spokesman  will 
submit,  IN  A  SEPARATE  COLUMN,  its  OPINION  concerning  the 
aspirants.  This  o[Hnion  will  be  presented  clearly,  simply,  briefly,  with- 
out t)ombast  or  equivocation.  It  is  to  guide  you  in  making  a  choice — if 
you  wish  guidance.  You  may  agree  or  disagree,  approve  or  disapprove. 
The  FACrrS  will  be  yours  to  interpret  as  you  choooe. 

This,  The  Spokesman  believes  to  be  no  more  and  no  less  than  a 
newspaper's  duty  to  its  readers  and  the  nation.  In  the  interest  of  good 
government,  it  is  submitting  this  announcement  to  ALL  potential  can- 
didates of  ALL  parties,  and  will  publish  weeiily  the  results  of  inter- 
views with  these  persons.

This  column  was  originally  intended  to  deal  with  the 
ayes  and  nays  of  subjects  of  interest  to  women.  And, 
although  no  "fan"  mail  was  expected,  a  goodly  number  of 
letters  have  been  received,  some  containing  orchids  and 
others  containing  brick-bats.  Strangely  enough,  those  con- 
tainirtg  orchids  have,  with  few  exceptions,  come  from  men. 
So  what?  One  "orchider"  even  suggested  that  this  column 
give,  the  men  a  raking  over  once  in  a  while.

have  I  heard  that  word  before?) 
is  therefore  dedicated  to  those 
men  who  do  the  writer  the  honor 
of  following  her  up  in  each  issue. 

Should  a  wife  open  her  hus- 
band's mail?  This  is  a  question 
that  arises  in  the  best  of  families 
notwithstanding  the  fact  that 
property  rights  are  usually  taught 
in    childhood. 

All  good  aulhoriUes  answer  the 
question:  in  the  negative.  They  say 
that  a  qian  is  entitled  to  be  the 
first  to  read  all  mail  addressed  to 
him  and  that  no  self-respecting 
woman  reads  her  husband's  mail 
except  at  his  invitation,  even  after 
he  has  read  it  and  thrown  it 
aside.  Curiosity  is  natural  but  the 
woman  who  goes  snooping  into 
pocketfi  or  deak  drawers,  prying 
into  her  husband's  private  mall, 
lowers  herself  ^n  his  estimation. 
He  may  not, express  himself  in  so 
many  words  but  It  stands  to  rea- 
son that  he  would  rate  his  mate 
much  lHig|ier  if  be  could  claim  the 
privacy .  tb  (irhich  he  is  entitled. 
Privacy  does  not  Imply  secrecy. 
A  woman  naay  rest  assured  that 
no  husband  would  be  so  dumb  as 
to  allow  bis  secret  mail  to  be  de- 
livered at  his  home  address,  even 
if  his  wife  were  blind,  deaf  and 
bed-ridden. 

It  is  understood,  of  course,  that 
the  considerate  husband  does  not 
pry  into  his  wife's  maH — if  any — 
elsewhere. 

So  nothing  elevating  is  to  be 
gained  by  one  party  opening  and 
reading  mail  addressed  to  the 
other. 

It  is  this  sort  of  behaviorism 
that  gives  tlfc  holy  state  of  raatrl-

mony  such  an   unholy  name.  Also,  ,bury    bells    Mesdames    Fields,    Ba 


the  authorities  point  out,  it  might 
be  well  to  remember  that  tam- 
pering with  the  mail  is  officially 
recognized   as   an   offense. 

Another  question  answered  in 
the  negative— should  a  woman  ac- 
cept telephone  or  other  informal 
invitations  for  her  husband?  A 
man,  say  the  authorities,  should 
make  it  a  point  to  refuse  ail  such 
dates  made  for  him,  even  if  he 
would  like  to  accept,  rather  than 
become  known  as  a  lamb-like 
spouse  who  will  follow  wherever 
wifie    leads. 

The  really  considerate  wife  finds 
it  easy  enough  to  say  that  she 
must  consult  her  husband  before 
^ceptlng  engagements  for  him.  A 
TuaX  he-man  likes  to  have  a  word 
or  two  to  say  about  where  he 
■bouM    go    and    when. 

Should  a  woman  choose  her 
husband's  clothes  or  tell  him  when 
to  wear  the  blue  tie  or  the  red 
qne?  Again  the  answer  is  no. 
H^fle  usually  wears  what  pleases 
her,  and  her  husband  should  be 
allowed  to  do  the  same.  If  he 
chooses  to  wear  the  yellow  tie 
with  the  pink  shirt,  wifie,  if  she 
be    clever,    can    see    to    it    that    it 


On  Sunday  afternoon  the  de- 
lightful home  of  Mrs.  Maedell 
Barlter  of  Parker  Street,  Berkeley 
was  the  setting  for  a  very  unique 
and  beautiful  flower  show.  Two 
rooms  were  filled  to  caiiacity  with 
blossoms  and  pot  plants  all  except 
two  were  contributed  by  the 
friends  of  Mrs.  Barber  from  their 
gardens.  These  blooms  and  plants 
artistically  arranged  by  Mrs.  Es- 
tell Snelling  assisted  by  Dr.  O. 
Roy  Busch  was  as  deserving  of 
merit  and  ribbons  as  was  the  dis- 
play at  the  annuni  flower  show 
recently  held  at  the  Oakland  au- 
ditorium. tSo  beautiful  and  boun- 
teous were  the  flowers  contrib- 
uted that  Mrs.  Barber  was  unable 
to  award  any  prizes,  (or  it  was 
impossible  to  select  winners 
Among  the  flowers  contributed 
were  lilies  by  Mesdames  C.  N.

very  siiort  business  session,  the 
meeting-  was  turned  over  to  Mrs. 
Melbu  f^tufford,  executive  board 
chairman  and  the  entire  afternoon 
was   giv.in    over  to   the    program. 

This  program  was  in  the  nature 
of  n  qui  ?t  celebration  of  the  35th 
anniveraivry  of  the  club,  and  a 
memorial  to  all  those  members 
who  had  passed  into  the  great 
beyond. 

The  roD  call  was  answered  by 
each  me'Ubers  bringing  out  some 
reminiscence  of  the  club  life,  thus 
reciting  jwme  of  the  most  inter- 
esting, ai  lusing,  educational  and 
sad  activities  of  the  past  3S 
years  in  the  life  of  the  Fanny 
Coppin  Ctiib,  the  first  club  of 
colored  women  to  be  organized  in 
California. 

These  "reminiscences"  occupied 
the  greater  |i*  rl  of  the  aftamooh 
and  elicited  tjcars,  laughter  and 
much    applause. 

Mrs.  DcHarl,  rUs.  Ella  Hawkins 
and  Mrs.  Mary  Brady,  the  three 
remainiuK  charter  members  were 
presented  to  the  I'Jub  and  were 
given  an  ovation.  The  president, 
Mrs.  Purnell  who  inever  forgets 
to  de  the  kindest  tlUngs  in  the 
nicest  way,  presented  a  beautiful 
bouquet  in  the  club  coilors,  yellow 
and  white  to  be  presented  to  each 
of  them.  hSe  had  doubtless  ar- 
ranged a  nlci'  little  speech  to  go 
with  each  of  them,  but  was  too 
overcome  with  emotion  to  say  it, 
and  for  the  same  reasom  the  re- 
cipients failed  to  respond.  So  the 
club  sunK  "Memories"  led  by  Mrs. 
Lucille   Daw.son. 

The  life  of  Funny  Jackson  was 
read  by  Mrs  Willa  Henry.  Inter- 
est in  this  splendid  woman,  who, 
from  a  little  slave  girl,  (whose 
freedom  had  been  bought  by  an 
aunt  of  hers  for  tliSO,  saved  up  a 
little  at  n  time,  by  hard  work  and 
many  sacrifices  i  who  through  de- 
termination, hard  work  and  oelf 
sacrifice  on  her  own  part,  rose  to 
one  of  the  tjreatest  educators  of 
her  race,  was  attested  by  the  ab- 
solute stilness  and  attention  of 
the  members  through  the  entire 
reading 

Mrs.  Emma  Gibson  sang  "My 
Task."  The  program  closed  with 
the  Mizpah  and  the  members 
were  called  to  the  dining  room 
where  a  banquet  amply  befitting 
the   occasion    was   served.

African  custom  in  the  Temoni 
tribe  of  the  Sierra  Loono,  West 
Africa,  certainly  makes  him  one 
of  the  most  surprising  lumlnarios 
ever  to  rise  on  the  New  York 
theatrical  horizon,  i.s  full  of  sur- 
prises. 

The  impresaario  is  librettist, 
cbereographer,  author  and  hero  of 
the  strange  dramatic  fragment 
wliicb  is  suddenly  Introducing  the 
dark  continent  to  the  town. 

The  story  of  that  success  was 
nearly  as  startling  as  the  story  of 
th?  success  of  "Abie'.s  Irish  Rose," 
as   Mr    Horton   told    it. 

He  had  been  working  ot  African 


house    had    held.    Word    of    mouth 
advertising   had   done   its   work. 

After  that  StokowNki  came  and 
insLitcd  on  playing  the  drums 
which  make  the  wild,  arousing 
accompunlnu'nt  of  the  perform- 
ance. Mrs.  Eugene  O'Neill.  Oeorgo 
Gershwin.  Theodore  Dreiser  and 
hundreds  of  others  pai'kod  into 
the  tiny  playhouse  and  were  able 
to  tell  their  friends  later  that  they 
had  seen  the  success  in  its  first 
stages.  For  (hero  were  a  couple  of  , 
good  press  notices,  the  audlencejr 
continued  too  hig  for  the  tr^m- 
formed  beauty  parlor,  and  /Ky- 
kunkor" was  transplanted  to  the 
Chanin  auditorium,  where  (it  la 
now  selling  every  seat

with  the  23r(l  Street  60  centsS 

"I    am    glad    that    it    has 
well,"   said    Mr     Horton.    "I    like

l>e.    DK\  AIGHN'S   MISFORTl'NE 

—A    lJ!:SSON    IN     EXPEDIENCY 

jy|ORAIJZING  is  the  least  pleasant  func- 
'"  tion  of  a  newspaper,  and  especially  re- 
pugnant is  its  task  of  pointing  to  "milk- 
and-morality"  lessons  in  the  experience  of 
those  to  whom  Fortune  has  been  unkind. 
Yet,  some  meditation  on  the  why  and 
wherefore  of  misfortune,  if  it  be  divorced 
from  all  inclination  to  commend  one's  own 
piety,  is  not  an  unprofitable  occupation. 

So  we  come  to  think  of  the  misfortunes 
of  Dr.  O.  W.  DeVaughn,  on  whom  the  toils 
Of  the  law  seem  closing  fast. 

In  tlie  pre-  and  post-natal  life  of  this 
unhappy  man  are  conditions,  events,  cir- 
cumstances sufficient  to  explain  his 
present  liapless  fate.  Let  those  who  wish 
contend  he  had  the  will  to  do  or  not  to  do, 
to  judge  wisely  or  falsely,  to  wish  nobly 
or  ignobly,  to  desire  or  not  to  desire. 
Theirs  is  a  vision  barren  of  understanding, 
laden  with  the  self-love  that  stifles  sympa- 
thy at  its  birth  and  points  the  shrivelled 
finger  of  condemnation. 

For  us,  who  would  see  clearly  and 
justly,  this  narrow  gauge  of  failure  and 
success  is  warped  and  incomplete.  We  are 
poncemed,  not  with  what  he  did,  but  why 
he  did  it.  And  in  seeking  to  determine 
this,  we  are  compelled  to  consider  the  con- 
dition of  his  equipment  at  birth  and  how 
that  equipment  was  twisted  and  moulded 
by  the  factors,  alien  to  himself,  that  ex- 
ist£d  in  a  world  to  which  he  came  without 
choice  and  will  leave  in  the  same  manner. 
Only  when  we  know  these  things  should 
we  dare  appraise  this  man'.-^  character. 


Lessons  in  expediency  therefore,  and 
not  in  moralitj-,  are  the  only  ones  you  and 
I  may  profitably  consider  in  the  experience 
of  Dr.  DeVaughn.  Of  these,  notably  con- 
spicuous is  this:  that  although  the  spirit 
of  the  law  be  violated,  it  is  the  part  of 
wisdom  to  preserve  conformity  with  its 
letter. 

Evasion  of  the  law's  letter  is  the  pre- 
rogative only  of  financiers  and  state  of- 
ficials. A   Morgan,  Mellon,  or  Rockefeller 
may  openly  break  the  law  with  impunity, 
stealing  from  millions  of  men  their  sus- 
taining pittance,   robbing  children   of  the 
opportunities  this  world  owes  them,  creat- 
ing  and   maintaining   a   social   system   in 
which  misery  is  modem  man's  daily  por- 
tion. A  Hoke  Smith,  J.  K.  Vardaman,  or 
Thomas    Heflin    may    filch    from    millions 
their  rights  of  citizenship,  incite  riots,  lead 
mobe,  and  participate  in  lynchings  without 
punishment    or    even    condemnation.    For 
these  men  Justice  has  a  special  dispensa- 
tion; but  for  you  and  me,  who  lack  the 
power  to  make  laws,  it  is  a  safe  rule  not  to 
break  them. 

Then  too,  as  a  concession  to  those  who 
mefuse  to  relinquish  all  faith  in  the  will's 
freedom,  appears  in  Dr.  DeVaughn's  con- 
idtict  one  other  error  that  might  have  been 
avoided.  He  took  the  easy  way,  which  is 
pie  very  human  way.  But  if  there  are  ever 
moments  in  which  the  individual's  choice 
Is  at  hair-balance,  so  that  he  might  with 
•qual  facility  and  willingness  launch  him- 
Wdf  upon  either  of  two  opposing  direc- 
tloos,  he  ought  to  ponder  long  before

IN  PRAISE  or  A  "MISFTT'    . 

tJLST  WEEK  The  Spoicesraan  offered  on 
,  J  this  page  an  editorial  in  which  one  sig- 
lUflcant  phrase  was  capitalized — "in  exact 
"pnOfortion  as  Negro  instltutionM  multiply, 
'i^Bfregatfon  and  discrimination  increase." 
'^Thia  phrase  was  the  verbatijn  quotation  of 
•^iteqiient  assertion  by  one  whom  the  peo- 
pfii-of  this  community  liave  failed  to  un- 
WtVtand,  and  who  prefers  to  call  himself

Kimcrica  is  begitiuiug  to  appreciate,  now 
that  he  is  dead.  The  fact  that  Trotter— he 
of  the  fearless  spirit,  the  inflexible  will, 
ihe  long-range  vision,  the  herculean  ener- 
gy; he  who  threatened  to  slap  the  face  of 
Woodrow  Wilson  for  breaking  faith  with 
12  million  Americans — dedicated  his  Ufe 
lo  the  promulgation  of  that  idea  ought 
to  clothe  it  with  the  highest  recommen- 
1  dation  to  us  all.  And  if  the  idea,  why  not 
its  bearer? 

Perhaps  Dr.  Baldwin  rightly  calls  him- 
self a  "misfit."  He  will  be  seen  in  the  van- 
guard of  every  progressive  movement.  He 
will  be  heard  voicing  the  defense  of  every 
liberal  thought.  Unhappily,  in  the  present 
nature  of  things,  such  men  are  misfits.

WHAT  OF  THE  PRESENT? 

rSPECIALLY  significant  to  us  at  the 
^  present  time  ought  to  be  the  daily  inci- 
dents in  industry  and  government  that 
i.ppear  unrelated  and  spontaneous,  but 
which,  fundamentally,  are  all  part  and 
parcel  of  a  colossal  historic  process. 

The  strikes  and  walkouts,  armed  con- 
flict between  police  and  workers,  govern- 
mental intervention  in  labor  disputes,  the 
f  Darrow  report  and  its  blow  to  an  already 
staggering  NRA,  the  renunciation  of  pre- 
mature violence  by  the  Communists  and 
its  ratification  by  the  Socialist  Party,  in- 
ternational bankruptcy  indicated  by  debt 
renunciation,  sporadic  outbreaks  of  vio- 
lence in.  European  and  South  American 
nations — all  these  apparently  isolated  oc- 
currences have  a  common  thread  of  cause 
and  effect.  To  pick  out  this  thread  is  the 
task  of  scholars  and  statesmen,  but  less 
gifted  mortals  should  know  that  it  is 
there,  as  omnipresent  as  space. 

Some  find  the  cause  in  the  universal 
economic  slough;  some,  in  the  conflict 
between  opposing  theories  of  government; 
and  others,  in  the  recrudescence  of  an  ir- 
religious era.  There  is  probably  a  racial 
explanation,  and  astronomers  may  des- 
cribe the  cause  in  terms  of  planetary  evo- 
lution. But  for  those  of  us  who  cannot 
explain,  it  is  enough  to  know.  For  knowl- 
edge impels  anticipation. 

Anticipation  of  a  change  in  this  coun- 
try's scheme-of-things  carries  no  menace 
to  the  Aframerican.  He,  of  all  our  hetero- 
geneous population,  has  most  to  gain  by 
change.  And  where  that  change  will  con- 
Fist  chiefly  of  improvements  in  the  "aver- 
ago"  man's  abihty  to  live  effectively,  as 
indeed  appears  hkely,  it  will  be  especially 
advantageous. 

To  The  Spokesman,  by  word  or  deed 
obstructing  social  change  seems  a  much 
moi-c  heinous  crime  than  furthering  a 
revolution.

FURTHER   INTO   THE   QUICKSAND 

THAT  Dr.  W.  E.  B.  DuBois  is  wading 
'  further  into  the  quicksand  of  inconsis- 
tency which  caught  him  recently  appears 
to  be  the  only  inference  we  can  gather 
after  reading  his  self -justification  in  the 
f^urrent  issue  of  The  Crisis.  For  those 
of  you  who  like  well-put  phrases  and  argfu- 
ments  driven  AROUND  a  point,  the  fol- 
lowing excerpt  is  submitted: 

"Some  people  seem  to  think  that  the 
fight  against  Hegregation  ronsist.s  merely 
of  one  damned  proteHt  after  another.  That 
the  technique  is  to  protest  and  wail  and 
protest  again,  and  to  keep  this  thing  up 
until  the  gates  of  public  opinion  and  the 
walls  of  segregation  fall  down. 

"...  Let  us,  therefore,  rememl>er  that 
this  program  must  be  modified  by  adding 
to  it  a  positive  side.  Make  the  protest,  and 
heep    on    making    it,    systematically    and 
thoughtfully.  ...  but  at  the  same  time, 
go  to  work  to  prepare  methods  and  insti- 
tutions which  will  supply  those  things  and 
th«>se  opportunities  which  we  lack  because 
of  segregation.  Stage  boycotts  which  will 
put  Negro  clerks  in  the  stores  wiiioh  ex- 
ptoit   Negro   neighborhoods.    Build   a    16th 
Street    Presbyterian    Church,    when    the 
First  Presbyterian  would  rather  love  Jesus 
without  your  presence.  Establish  and  elab- 
orate   a    Wa.shington    system    of    public 
schools,   comparable   to  any   set  of  public 
schools  in  the  nation;  and  (hen  when  you 
have  done  this,  and  as  you  are  doing  it, 
and  while  in  the  process  you  are  saving 
your  voice  and  your  temper,  say  softly  to 
the  world:  see  what  a  precious  fool  you 
are.  Here  is  a  church  lietter  than  most  of 
yours.   Here  are  a  set   of  scboob*   where 
you     should     be     proud     to     send     your 
children." 

We  suspect  that  this  is  all  talk.  Dr. 
DuBols  knows  very  well  that  under  the 
present  arrangement,  it  is  IMPOSSIBLE 
for  Negroes  as  a  separate  group  to  build 
institutions  comparable  in  quality  with 
other  American  institutions.  Negro  insti- 
tutions are  bound  to  be  at  beet  mediocre; 
for  Negroes  as  Negroes  yet  lack  both  the 
opportunity  and  the  ability  to  accomplish 
— without  the  cooperation  AND  competi- 
tion of  groups  situated  more  advanUge- 
oosly— anything  of  exceptional  merit.  This 
to  too  pMaimURn;  simply  reality. 


PARKER  nOHT  IS  RECALLED 


fIGHT  AGAINST 
JUDGE  PARKER 
TRACED  BY  ASSN. 

Negro-Haters     Exposed    and 
Defeated   Through    Vigi- 
lance of  Organization 


On    April    19,    1920,    the    Gneof- 
joro    (N.    C.)    Daily    News    quoted 
I  .sjieecJi   by  .ludge  John   J.   Park- 
.•r,   Republican   candidate   for  Oov- 
ernor    of    North    Carolina,    before 
the   Viepublican    State    Convention, 
tiiicn   he  accepted  the   norainsUon. 
in   this  speech  Judge  Parker  com- 
nented  approvingly  on  an  amend- 
.nent   to   the   North   Ciirolina   con- 
stitution   in    1900.    which    provided 
lor    the    payment    of    a    poll    tax, 
for  literacy  tests  of  voters  and  for 
the     inclusion     of     a     grandfather 
cluu.se,     all     these     clauses     of     the 
amendment    being    designed    to    e- 
liminate     Negroes     from       voting. 
Though      the     grandfather      clause 
hud      been      held     unconstitutional 
by    the    U.    S.    Supreme    Court    in 
191S,    as    a    result    of    litigation    in 
which      the     aNtoinal     Association 
for    the    Advancement    of    Colored 
People    had   taken   an   active    part, 
Judge    Parker    expressed    his    ap- 
proval of  this  clause  in  the  North 
Carolina   constitution,   saying: 

"The  Republican  Party  in  North 
Carolina  has  accepted  the  amend- 
ment in  the  spirit  in  which  it  was 
passed  and  the  Negro  has  so 
accepted  it.  I  have  attended  every 
State  Convention  since  1908  and  I 
have  never  .seen  a  Negro  delegate 
in  any  convention  that  I  attended. 
The  Negro  as  a  class  does  not 
desire  to  enter  politics.  hTe  Re- 
publican Party  of  North  Carolina 
does  not  desire  him  to  do  so.  We 
recognize  the  fact  that  he  has 
not  yet  reached  that  stage  in  his 
Jevclopnunt  when  he  can  share 
in  the  burdens  and  responsibilities 
of  Government  .  .  .  the  participa- 
tion of  the  Negro  in  politics  is  a 
source  of  evil  and  danger  to  both 
races  and  is  not  desired  by  Ihe 
wise  men  in  either  race  or  by 
the  Republican  Party  of  North 
Carolina." 

In  March  1930,  exactly  ten  years 
after  this  speech  breathing  the 
philosophy  of  the  unreconstructed 
.South.  Judge  ojhn  J.  Parker  was 
nominated  by  President  Hoover 
to  fill  a  vacancy  on  the  United 
States  supreme  court.  Having  won 
there,  six  cases  affecting  the  fun- 
damental citizenship  rights  of  Ne- 
groes and  knowing  this  august 
uody  to  be  Ihe  most  vital  bulwark 
of     such     rights,     the     Association 


at  once  realized  the  danger  of 
having  on  the  supreme  court 
bench  n  man  holding  such  reac- 
tionary views  as  those  of  Judge 
Parker. 

The  national  office  telegraphed 
Judge  Parker  on  March  26,  1980, 
asking  if  the  Greensboro  Daily 
News  had  correctly  quoted  him. 
The  telegram  was  delivered  and 
signed  for.  Judge  Parker  failed 
to  reply  to  it.  The  N.  A.  A.  C.  P. 
then  urged  President  oHover  to 
withdraw  the  nomination,  citing 
as  precedent  the  withdrawal  by 
President  Taft  of  the  nomination 
of  Judge  Hook  on  February  8, 
1912.  after  protest  by  the  Associa- 
tion. 

President     oHover     ignored     the 
Association's     complaint,     however, 
because    he    was    evidently    cona- 
mitted     to     the     lily-white     policy 
announced      in      his      Eliiabethton, 
Tenn.      speech      during      the      1938 
campaign,    designed     to    conciliate 
southern  white  sentiment  and  win 
support    for    the    Republican    party 
in  Dixie   by   sacrificing   the   Negro 
ana    his    iighu    as    an    American 
citizen.    The    N.    A.    A.    C     P.    then 
began  an  active  campaign   to  pro- 
cure   enough    vote*    to    defeat    the 
Parker    confirmation    in    the    Sen- 
ate. When  a  sub-committee  of  tke 
Senste    judiciary    committee    took 
up  the   nomination,   Walter   Whit*, 
appeared     before     It     on     April    B 
presenting   a   memorandum   setting 
forth   the  grounds  of   Negro  oppo- 
sition to  the  appointment  of  Judfe 
Parker,   saying   it  constituted:   "an 
open,     shameleu     flouting     of    tlM 
Uth   and   tsth   amendments   to  the 
Constitution,     and    holding   that    a 
man   who   for   pollUcal    advantafk 
can     ii„„t     tw„     amendments     to 
the  Constitution  to  pander  to  race 
prejudice"    was    unfit    to    sit    upon 
the  highest  tribunal  of  the  nation. 
It    being   evident    that   President 
Hoover    intended    to    use    the    full 
power    of    the     administration     to 
procure      confirmation      of      Judg* 
Parker't    appointment,    the    N.    A. 
A.    C.  J>.    began    mobiliting    black 
and  white  opinion  for  the  impend- 
ing     fight       The      national      office 
communicated   -with    all    branchea 
wherever    the    Negro    voted:    wtth 
all     church,     fraternal     and     otbir 
bodies;     with     prominent     individ- 
uals,   black    and    white,    and    Witt 
political    leaders     In    response    ttt 
this  appeal,   an   avalanche  of   tM4 
grams,     telephone     messages     and 
letters     descended     upon     senatOtW 
fro     mnorthern      and      even     from 
.southern  stales    Senator  after  s*^ 
alor  hastened   to   assure   the   N.  Ai 
A     C     P     that     he    would    op| 
Judge    Parkers    confirmation

sure,     the     Senate    Judiciary   "sub-

Aiou-sed    by    this    militant    oppo- 
Miion.  .the    OHover    adralnlstfation 
j  ,ised     every      means,     honest     and 
I  otherwise,    to    discredit   it.    Senator 
Overman     of     North    Carolina     de- 
clared    Negroes     had     voted     for 
I  Parker   in    19»).   This   the    Assooai- 
tipn     proved     false     by     numerous 
i(fidavits     from     North     Carolina 
Megroes,    broadcast    to    the    press. 
>rtain    "Negro    leaders'     procured 
q  endorse  the  Parker  nomination, 
lad      their      pedigrees      promptly 
iroadcast    to    the    press.    The    oS- 
iety  of  Friends   and  other  strong 
.-roups     Joined     in     the     fight     on 
r'arker's   nomination. 

Friendly    Washington    newspaper 
•orrespondenU    kept    the    national 
)f(ice    informed    of    dally    develop- 
nenU   there.   Such   manoeuvers   as 
ittempting    to    hold    secret    votes. 
;o    delay    votes,    etc..    were    killed 
i-bornlng       through       information 
rausmitted    by   long   distance    tele- 
)hone   to   the   N.   A.    A.   C.    P.   and 
relayed   to  strategic   centers  where 
.Vcgro     votes    counted.    Important 
newspapers,    notably    the    Scripps- 
Howard     chain,     unstintedly     sup- 
ported   the    Association's    fight. 

A  statement  »rom  Paiker  pro- 
iwnents  challengiag  the  authen- 
ticity of  the  quotations  from  his 
1920  speech,  was  answered  by 
;  photostatic  copies  of  the  Greens- 
boro Daily  News  clipping  sent  to 
I  President  Hoover,  all  U.  S.  Sena- 
tors and  the  nation's  press.  When 
.Senator  Fess  of  Ohio  sought  to 
attribute  the  Fight  on  Judge 
Parker  to  oCmmupism,  the  Asso- 
ciation replied  that  "Villlflcation, 
distortion  and  misrepresentation 
will  not  obscure  the  issue  before 
the  American  people.  .  .  .  The 
issue  is  so  simple  that  it  cannot 
possibly  be  misunderstood."  This 
release  went  to  the  newspapers 
of  the  entire  Country.  Desperate, 
the  Hoover  administration  even 
had  former  Assistant  Attorney 
General  Uabl«  Walker  Wille- 
brandt  telephone  from  Washing- 
ton to  Mary  White  Ovington, 
chairman  of  the  N  .A.  A.  C.  P. 
board  of  directors,  urging  her  to 
support    Parkef. 

Yielding  to  such  a  hot  fire  from 
constituents,  senator  after  senator 
announced  hit  Inafcllity  to  support 
Parker.  hTe  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  main- 
tained a  daily  druipfire  of  releases 
distributed  through  the  Associated 
Press,  the  United  Press  and  other 
news  services.  The  Negro  press 
almost  unanimously  barked  the 
fight  The  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  staged 
great  mass  meetings  in  Philadel- 
phia,     Chicago,      Cleveland,      New 


york      and      other      dUes.      which 
gained  extensive  press  notice. 

White  politicians  in  North  Caro- 
lina personally  threatened  leading 
Negroes  there  to  halt  their  oppo- 
.sltion  to  Judge  Parker.  hTc  As- 
lioclntion  promptly  exposed  the 
plot  and  called  upon  the  Governor 
of  North  Carolina  to  protect  the 
threatened  citizens.  hTe  adminis- 
tration then  sought  to  delay  ac- 
tion and  thus  tire  out  Parker's 
opponents  when  it  was  seen  that' 
the  Senate  would  not  back  the 
Parker  nomination.  The  Associa- 
tion nearly  intensified  its  efforts. 
Nerves  grew  tense  as  it  devel- 
oped that  perhaps  a  single  vote 
might  determine  the  outcome  of 
the  fight.  That  one  deciding  vole 
was  procured  when  Senator 
Thomas  D.  Schall  of  Minnesota 
Journeyed  to  aWshington  from 
bis  home  to  vote  against  Parker. 
The  As.sociation  made  a  last  min- 
ute appeal  to  the  Senate  and  the 
American  people  pointing  out  that 
many  memorable  supreme  court 
decisions  stood  S  to  4,  and  that  it 
was  most  vital  that  no  reaction- 
ary Jurist  sit  upon  that  body  If 
essential  human  rights  were  to 
be   safeguarded.  ' 

On  May  7.  1930,  before  a  tense 
and  crowded  Senate  and  galler- 
ies, eSnator  Robert  F.  aWgner 
(N.  Y.)  led  the  debate  against 
Parker.  When  the  vote  was  taken 
and  the  count  completed  ,the 
Parker  confirmation  was  found 
rejected   41    to   39. 

The  vote  was  recognized 
throughout  the  country  as  a  clear- 
cut  victory  for  Negroes,  led  by 
the  N  A.  A.  C.  P.,  against  the 
great  massed  power  of  the  Hoover 
administration;  as  a  milestone  in 
the  long  struggle  for  full  Negro 
freedom.  The  U.  S.  supreme  court 
bench  was  kept  free  of  a  Jurist 
openly  opposed  to  the  Negro's 
participation  in  politics.  A  vital 
blow  was  struck  at  the  Republi- 
can parly's  southern  lily-white 
policy.  The  Negro  demonstrated 
his  might  as  a  political  power  in 
America. 

In  the  1930  elections  the  Asso- 
ciation went  after  the  scalps  of 
senators  who  had  fought  for 
Parkers  confirmation.  The  na- 
tional office  sent  to  all  branches, 
to  editors  and  to  interested 
friends  a  list  of  senators  up  for 
re-election  and  a  statement  of 
how  each  had  voted  in  the  Parker 
fight.  William  Pickens,  cam- 
paigned against  eSnator  Henry  J. 
Allen  of  Kansas  in  the  primary. 
Mass  meetings  weie  held  in  Ohio 
against  Senator  Roscoe  C.  Mc- 
Culloch,      Walter      White,      Robert 


Dagnall  and  Dr  DuBois  address 
ing  thousands  of  people  at  Cleve- 
land, Columbus,  Akron,  Cincinnati 
and  Toledo.  hTe  N.  A.  A.  C.  P 
made  clear  during  tlic  strenuous 
campaign  that  Its  activities  were 
non-partisun. 

Senators  Allen  and  McCulloch 
were  defeated,  losing  very  hekvily 
in  districts  largely  populated  by 
Negroes.  In  Delaware  and  Rhode 
Island  Negroes  voted  in  large 
numlKrs  against  Republican  sen- 
ators »^ho  had  voted  for  Parker's 
confirmation.  The  Association 
spent  »1,209.13  fighting  these  sen- 
atorial   candidates. 

No  contributions  were  received 
from  any  political  party,  all  ex- 
penses being  borne  by  the  Asso- 
ciation, nl  1931  ex-.Senator  David 
A.  Baird,  another  Parker-voter, 
was  defeated  for  Governor  of 
New    Jersey. 

As  an  aftermath  of  this  fight, 
Owen  J.  HoberU,  a  liberal  on  race 
relations  and  a  trustee  of  Lin- 
coln University  was  appointed  to 
the  supreme  court  in-  place  of 
Judge  Paaker,  and  confirmed  by 
the    Senate. 

The  Association  has  consistently 
fought  the  appointment  or  elec- 
tion of  men  known  to  be  preju- 
diced against  colored  people.  In 
July  1930  it  halted  the  appoint- 
ment of  Judge  E  Walker  of  Win- 
ter Haven,  Fla.,  as  federal  judge 
for  the  Southern  district  of  Flori- 
da, furnishing  affidaviu  from  re- 
sponsible colored  citizens  to  the 
attorney  general  of  the  U.  S.  prov- 
ing   Walker's    racial    bias. 

The  aspiration  of  Or\-ilIe  Bur- 
lington of  Texas  to  be  a  federal 
Judge  was  also  punctured  by  the 
Association's  opposition  based  on 
a  statement  made  by  him  that  if 
opportunity  offered  he  would  ask 
for  the  repeal  of  J  4th  and  15th 
Amendments  to  the  U.  S.  Con- 
stitution, and  that  he  opposed 
participation  of  Negroes  in  poll- 
tics. 

Another  victory  was  scored  up 
against  Negrophobic  Job  seekers 
when  the  Association  helped  to 
kill  the  aiipointment  of  B.  B. 
Montgomery  of  Mississippi  as 
United  States  marshal.  He  had 
expressed  disbelief  that  there 
were  any  chaste  Negro  women 
and  made  similar  prejudiced  that 
there  were  any  chaste  Negro 
women  and  made  similar  preju- 
diced sUtements  Under  pressure 
President  Hoover  withdrew  the 
nomination. 

This  fight  was  led  by  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  F:ugene  Booze  of  Mound 
Bayou,  Miss,  backed  by  the  power 
of    the    N.    A.    A.    C.    P.

COP  RAIDS;  WANTS 
DEATH  FOR  WORKERS 


ATLANTA.  Qa,  June  2  Thr^ 
raids  last  week  on  workers'  hnmM 
here  and  on  a  rcul-estate  offis 
here,  directed  by  the  Kcv.  John 
Hudson,  assistant  solicitor,  in  an 
attwnpt  to  round  up  nil  militaqt 
workers'  leaders,  netted  no  ar- 
rests. I 
Th*  Rev.  Hudson  has  iinnouncad 
thi^t  on  the  basis  of  the  decision 
jin  the  Herndon  case,  which  fei 
being  appealed  to  the  U.  S.  Hu- 
preaie  Court  by  the  International 
La6fir  Defense,  he  would  seek  to 
arrest  and  have  Indicted  fur  "In- 
surrection" under  the  ancient 
slave-luw  used  against  llerndoa, 
every  militant  worker  He  an- 
nounced he  would  ask  for  tha 
deatb    penalty   In   every    case. 

Tbe  immediate  object  of  tbe 
rai^,  Hudson  said,  was  the  ar- 
rest cl  Don  West,  native  white 
organizer  of  wliite  and  Negro 
tollars. 

l^c  terror-drive  is  seen  lu  thp 
opening  of  a  campaign  to  lay  tlin 
basis  of  lynch-hysteria  for  the 
trial  of  the  "Atlanta  6  '  The  "6/' 
two  Negro  men,  two  white  \/onieQ, 
and  two  white  men,  all  tradk 
union  organizers,  ueru  tiresteU 
in  1930  undi  r  the  old  slave  la* 
(passed  In  llMiK,  and  •  hargell 
with  "inciting  to  Insurri-ction.'' 
The  "6"  have  njvcr  been  ))rough't 
to  trial,  but  tbe  Rev  Ilii<!.un  hMi 
announced  he  will  soon  demand 
that  they  come  for  trial,  and  that 
he  will  deauinri  the  death-penalty 
for   them.

The  same  holds  true  in  regard  . 
to  the  iitlitudc  of  the  public  id  ' 
general    towiird    suih    books.  | 

Then-  are   authors  who   feel  that  |

richest    gii't.s    life    holds     They    ex-  | 
press   that    Ix  lief   by   writing    bonks  I 
in    which    SIX    plays    a    large    part. 
Uegardle.-.;.     of     the     idea     content, 
an   author    should    only    be   judged 
by  tbe   success   he   achieves   in    ac- 
complisning  a   purpose     his  crafts- 
manship,  understanding   and   gra.Np 
of  the  la.sk   he  has  set  fur  himself 
Keading     into     a     novel     a     set     of 
inorul    vaiiies    winch    came    over    to 
America    V*\   years    ago    in    a    sail- 
boat  IS  an   unfair  assumption. 

And  while  we  are  on  the  sub- 
ject of  critici>m  Id  like  to  say 
something  comerning  the  iininteiir 
critics  of  the  New  Deal  In  fact  I 
«vlll    say    something. 

The  direction  of  busine.iii  in 
Ameriiu  is  toward  conccntrnllon 
Concentration  of  manufacluriiig 
into  huge  factories,  concentritllon 
of  wealth  collectivisation  of  econ- 
omy. If  we  musr  get  candid  Thi.s 
movement  has  been  going  on  for 
years.  Us  Increase  has  inrrcaned 
the  necessity  for  a  new  pnlitiiiil 
policy  and  action  1  nlhe  publics 
relationship  to  the  new  condiltonH 
The  New  Deal  li  an  attempt  iii 
this  direction. 

It  is  futile  to  attempt  to  turn 
back.  Thoiie  people  who  are  thi- 
heirs  of  the  intelligence  of  the 
men  who  insisted  that  the  auto 
would  nrver  be  a  success,  are 
rslsing  the  customary  voices  of 
objection   to  change.  It"s  silly. 

We  munt  change  America  will 
never  he  Ihe  same  as  she  was  be- 
fore the  rriish  She  will  never  be 
the  same  iis  she  was  yesterday. 
What  we  must  do  now  is  to  pre- 
pare ourselves  for  change.  Tho.se 
who  be.st  iidapt  themselves  to  new 
condition!!  will  be  the  successful 
men  of  tomnnow  Today  Is  n  dny

•EVP:n-RTEI^HEN  •  with  the 
Orays  defeating  the  rainters  and 
the  cPlicans  winning  from  the 
Berkeley  Elks  via  the  forfeit 
loulc,  all  four  teams  in  the  Berk- 
<"l?y  Colored  League  are  tied  for 
top  and  bottom  with  an  even  .500 
|)frcentage.  The  good  'ole  docks 
was  the  biggest  disrupting  factor 
in  thd  Elks  defeat,  several  of 
their  mainstays  being  absent  and 
hence  the  Pels  took  a  9-0  victory. 
In  the  tilt  that  was  played,  the 
Curtis  Collins  hurled  the  Grays  to 
an  easy  7-1  victory  over  the 
Painters,  who  looked  nothing  like 
the  lads  who  dumped  the  Peli- 
cans the  previous  week.  Dot  Roy 
and  Collins  hit  2-4-3  for  the  win- 
ners while  Earl  Meneweather 
.snapped  out  of  his  slamp  a  little 
and  banged  2-4-1.  Murillo  doubjed 
to  push  over  the  Painters  olne 
tally.

Marx  Adelbert  Bacr,  as  he  was  christeijed,  is  the  new 
heavyweight  champion  of  the  world  just  as  he  boasted  to 
the  writer  before  leaving  for  his  training  camp  a  few 
months  ago.  Several  others  of  the  sport  circle  were  present 
at  the  time,  a  few  taking  the  loquacious  lads  statement 
with  a  grain  of  salt,  but  I  for  one  believed  Max  would  stop 
the  Italian  behemoth  about  the  tenth  round  and  missed  by 
less  than  a  Aund.  I  believed  in  him  enough  to  ppedict  the 
victory  over  the  air  at  the  boxing  matches  last  week,  where 
I  have  a  weekly  spot  of  several  minutes,  thanks  to  the 
KROW  sports  announcer  Bill  Meyers  and  promoter  Ora 
Forman.  i 

Baer  is  the  13th  heavyweight  champion  under  the 
Marquis  of  Queensbury  rules,  the  first  being  John  L.  Sulli- 
van in  188  who  held  the  crown  for  lb  ye^rs.  Then  came  J. 
J.  Corbett— 1892-97;  Bob  Fitzsimmons — 1897-99;  J.  J.  Jef- 
feries— 1899-1906;  Tommy  Burns— 1006-08 ;  JACK  JOHN- 
SON—190815;  Jess  Willard— 1915-19;  Jack  Dempsey— 
1919-26;  Gene  Tunney— 1926-28 ;  Max  Schmeling— 1930-32 ; 
Jack  Sharkey— 1932-33;  Primo  Camera- 1933-34.  As  you 
can  see,  the  Sharkey  and  El  Primo  held  the  title  for  only 
one  year.  Unless  Baer  retires  undftf^ted,  I  am  under  the 
opinion  that  he  will  hold  the  champibnship  for  some  time, 
as  the  current  crop  of  opponents  are  far  from  the  Oakland 
boys  calibre,  and  he  should  have  little  trouble  with  Steve 
Hamas  and  Walter  Neusel,  leading  foes  chosen  by  sports 
writers.  Max  not  only  garnered  the  coveted  world's  title 
last  Thursday,  b^t  for  his  12 [o  per  cent  of  the  net  re- 
ceipts, carried  off  .?45,169.66.  The  gross  receipts  reached 
$428,3^,80  from  52,268  paid  admissions.  The  attendance 
checked  at  over  55,000,  however,  for  there  were  3,216 
"Annie  Oakleys,"  which  in  sport  is  complimentary  tickets. 
Tax  for  state  and  government  and  expenses  left  a  net  of 
$361,357.29.  From  thos  came  Baer's  purse  while  Prime's 
37  I/O  per  cent  totalled  $135,508.98.  Jack  Dempsey,  the  Mi- 
das of  fistonia  got  a  small  handBM  of  7'.',  per  cent  w|iich j '"■"'**^  °'  ^^^  '""^'^  enjoyable

BISHOP  RELATES 
STUDENT  LIFE  OF 
SCIENTIST  JUST 


Noted  HiolugiHt  Wa«  Former- 

l>  Howard  Profenitor 

of  EugUsh 


By  Bishop  Wilbur  F.  Thirhleld 

The  lant  l.isuc  of  the  attractive 
and  InfornUni  Dunbar  News,  with 
llii  appreciative  article  on  Profes- 
sor Ernest  Everett  Just,  reminds 
me  of  one  of  the  greatest  discov- 
eries I  ever  made.  The  discovery 
of  a  star  or  a  planet  Is  worth 
while,  but  that  relates  to  the 
merely  material  thing  that  neither 
knows  nor  comprehends  the  man 
behind    Ihe    telescope. 

The  discovery  of  a  man.  bow- 
ever,  that  relates  to  the  spiritual 
and  eternal  and  its  possibilities 
cannot  be  mea.iured  in  terms  of 
miles    or    thing!!. 

As  president  of  Howard  Uni- 
versity. I  sensed  the  need  of  ex- 
alting English  In  the  curriculum 
My  attention  was  directed  to  a 
brilliant  young  man  about  to 
graduate  from  Dartmouth  who 
had  gamed  high  rank  in  English 
and  science  So,  al  the  opening  of 
tne  second  year  of  my  administra- 
tion, in  1907.  Mr.  Just  began  hia 
work  as  instructor  in  EnglLih  at 
the   munificent  salary  of  (400. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that,  in  con- 
hidering  the  call  to  Howard,  I  had 
felt  constrained  to  say  to  the 
committee  that,  on  account  of  the 
small  salaries  of  professors,  my 
acceptance  must  be  blued  nn  a 
salary  ot  $4,000,  although  my  pre- 
dete.-uior  had  received  (.'i.OOO,  and 
although  I  wa.^  then  receiving 
J4,50ii  as  a  general  officer  of  the 
church,  the  same  spirit  was  gen- 
erously   shown    by    new    teachers. 

Mr.  Just  proved  a  superb  teach- 
er of  English  and  awakened  the 
enthusiasm  of  his  pupils.  By  the 
close  of  the  year,  however,  I  had 
i:efinite  and  hopeful  plans  for  a 
new  science  hall.  Learning  of  In-

GANDHI  DECLARES 
VIEWS  ON  MARRIAGE 

Believeti   Intermarriage   Bans 
Are  I'nrivilizcd 


WARDHA,  India,  June  18^-It 
Is  wrong  to  Ksy  I  have  refused 
to  visit  the  Cnited  Stales  because 
of    the    color    bar  ' 

This  wiis  Mahatma  Gandhr.n 
reply  when  a»ked  by  reporters  of 
the  Negro  pre"  whether  or  not 
he  was  opposed  lo  miscegenation, 
lost    week 

The  reporter  had  been  assigned 
to  interview  the  Mahatma  follow- 
ing publlcatiun  of  a  book  written 
by  (•  F  Andrews,  white,  entitled 
"Mahatma  Gandhi's  Ideas,"  in 
whirh  the  Indian  leaders  views 
were  mimnterpreted  lo  mean  that 
he  approves  of  certain  anti-social 
practices  In  the  western  civilisa- 
tion, particularly  the  inter-dining 
and  intermarrying  of  colored  and 
white     people 

When  further  questioned  he 
said. 

"Caste  Itself  hss  not  been  a 
harmful  Institution.  Caste  as  an 
off.ipring  of  untouchabilily  has 
been  s  most  harmful  Institution 
Either  It  haa  to  go  or  Hinduism 
ha.i     to     die  ■ 

•But  I  have  .laid  that  Interdin- 
ing     and     intermarrying     are     not 


neces.iary  factors  in  the  removal 
to  have  an  able  young' blologis7ln  "'  untouchability  Interdining  that 
preparation    for   the    department,    i  1 1   •"'ve   In   mind    means   more   than 


decided  to  switch  Mr.  Just  from 
J^nglish  lo  biology,  to  serve  under 
H  high -class  biological  professor 
whom  I  secured  from  the  Penn- 
rylvania   State    College 

Having  gained  the  warm  admir- 
ation of  his  students  In  English, 
Instructor   Just    was    not    favorable 


sharing  restaurants  and  hotels 
with  others  It  means  entry  into 
ones  kitchen  That  undoubtedly 
is    a    matter   of    one's   choice." 

I'rohlbltion  against  other  peo- 
ples eating  in  public  restaurants 
and  hotels  and  prohibition  of 
marriage     between     colored     people 


to    the    change     He    has    slAce    told    ■""    *"'"    P'^P'*    '    *"»'''    »<>»>«• 


ine  how  Incensed  he  became  over 
my  insistence  that  he  lake  the  in- 
rtructorsblp  In  biology,  on  the 
plea  that,  while  I  could  secure 
teacher.t  of  English,  Just  was  the 
only  well-equippe>l  man  of  the 
colored  group  whom  I  could  se- 
cure for  biology. 
So  this  is  the  story  of  Ihe  begin 


negation    of    civilization." 

It  was  Gandhi's  treatment  as  a 
colored  man  while  practicing  law 
in  southern  Africa  that  first 
stirred  him  to  agitation  against 
England  He  was  on  a  tram  in 
Natal  South  Africa,  and  although 
he  had  purchased  a  first  class 
ticket,  be  was  ordered  by  the  con- 


ning of  a  career   in   science  which  f''"'''"''   '"   '*"    •'""   ^''■°*   compart 


has  placed  Professor  Ernest  K 
.lust  among  the  outstanding  bio- 
logists of  the  world.  And  when  I 
was  a  guest  of  President  oJhnson 
a  couple  of  years  ago,  Dr.  and 
.Mrs.  Just  called  with  a  tangible 
expression  of  their  gratitude,  for. 
in  the  order  of  Providence.  I  had 
called  to  the  faculty,  the  brtlllant 
scholar  and  charming  woman  who 
later  became  the  wife  and  mother 
■.vho  has  graced  the  Just  home  in 
Washington. 

What  wonder,  then,  that  an  au- 
tographed photograph  of  Professor 
Just  adorns  the  walls  of  my  li- 
brary, In  company  with  personal- 
ly-inscribed photographs  of  Presi- 
dents Roosevelt  and  Taft  and  Am- 
bassador James  Bryce,  who  be- 
came my  friends  and  helpers  in 
the  ndministraUon  of  Howard 
from   1906  to  1912. 

It  will  be  recalled  by  those  who 
have  kept  in  touch  with  his  phe- 
nomenal career  that  Doctor  Just 
is  the  author  of  some  SO  scientific 
papers  on  experimental  embryolo- 
gy, and  was  for  five  years  a  Ros- 
enwald  Fellow  of  the  National 
Research    Council. 

Dr  Just  Is  associate  editor  of

menl    in    the    baggage   car 

When  he  refused,  the  British 
condui.tor  stopped  the  train  and 
shoved  him  out  into  the  bitter 
cold  atop  a  mountain  A  few  days 
later  while  walking  innocently  on 
a  sidewalk  in  Pretoria,  he  was 
pounced  upon  by  two  burly  po- 
licemen, who  kicked  and  t>eal  him 
severely 

This  Initiation  into  color  preju- 
dice stirred  him  as  nothing  else 
could  have  done,  and  be  developed 
Into  a  foe  of  England.  He  urged 
bis  people  to  boycott  English 
cotton  goods  and  to  spin  their 
own  eloth.  with  Ihe  result  that 
hundreds  of  EnglLih  cotton  mills 
had    to    be    closed.

the  contestants  was  proven,  large- 
ly through  the  testimony  of  Wil- 
liam McFarland,  who  declared 
that  the  instrument  as  presented 
for  probate  was  not  the  same  as 
the  one  signed  by  him,  and  that 
although  the  signature  resembled 
his,  he  doubted  lU  authenticity 
because  of  the  misspelling  of  his 
name. 

NOT  "MeFARLANE" 

AfrFarland  said  that  he  aprlU-d 
his  nainr  always  "McFarland," 
whereiM  the  signature  on  the 
will  was  spelled  ".VfcFarlane." 
He  told  the  jury  that  he  re- 
membered explicitly  the  provta- 
ions  of  the  will,  having  read  It 
twice  at  the  time  of  signing, 
and  that  the  bequest  to  the 
church  was  not  included  in  the 
doruntent  at  that  lime.  He  testi- 
fied that  after  the  death  of  Mr. 
Kinx,  he  went  to  Attorney  John 
Drake  on  several  orraalons  and 
told  him  of  the  discrepancy  In 
the  provisions,  as  he  remeni- 
hrrrd  them,  but  that  Drake  re- 
fused  to  art. 

Dr  Vernon  W.  Orviss,  Oakland 
dentist,  co-witness  with  McFar- 
land, unhesitatingly  acknowledged 
his  signature,  but  stated  that  he 
did    not    read    the    entire    contents 


of  the  will  Dr.  Orviss  and  Ally. 
John  Drake  are  both  trustoes  for 
North  Oakland  Baptist  Church. 
Mr.  Drake  is  attorney  for  the 
church,  a.i  well  as  attorney  named 
in    the   will    of   testator. 

Mrs  Coleman  testified  on  the 
stand  that  "she  could  tell  plenty" 
about  reported  unpleasantnesses 
between  the  aged  man  and  his 
relatives,  but  upon  direct  examin- 
ation her  replies  became  evasive, 
and  she  retreated  behind,  'T  do

BARGAIN  RATES 

for  intelligent,  thrifty  advertisers! 


EFFECTIVE  June  12,  1934,  The  Spokesman  rates  for  advertising 
provide    extraordinarily    liberal    quanUty    and    time    discounU. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  special  regard  for  the 
intelligent   and   thrifty   advertiser,    who   desires   the   greatest    reader 
respon»e  at  the  least  cost. 

Though  prepared  primarily  for  merchants,  included  also  are 
marked  reducUons  in  CHURCH,  FRATERNAL,  ORGANIZATION 
and  CLASSIFIED  rates.) 

THRIFTY  ADVERTISERS  are  not  deceived  by  spurious  circu- 
lation figures.  They  know  that  quahty  of  circulation  is  more  im- 
portant than  quantity:  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  ia 
rewarded  will  depend  on  three  things: 

1.  The  reader's  bu>'ing  power. 

2.  The  reader's  confidence  in  the  newspaper  containing  the  adver- 
tiser's message. 

3.  The  cost  of  advertising. 

BUYING  POWER  of  Aframericans,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  discovered,  is  commensurate  to  that  of  other  Americans. 
Even  in  the  impoverished  Southland,  the  United  SUtes  Census  Bureau 
(»mpiled  in  lf»30  the  following  significant  information:

INTELLIGENT    ADVERTISERS    do    not    expect    a    ne       >ap-:r    t.> 
guarantee  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 
or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  responsiveness  of  those  readers.  "* 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  thing  advertised. 

READER  RESPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  is  a 
condiUon  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  VALUES  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  method  by  which  the  thing  for  aale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspaper  can  help  the  advertiser  address  its  readers 
in  an  effecUve  njessage.  But  no  newspaper  can  put  value  into  a  product 
if  ita  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  gain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECTIVE  ADVER-HSING  METHODS. 
disUnguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
customer  may  be  deceived  once,  or  perhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finaJly  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  wiU 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelUgent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  an 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  repetition,  of  "teUing  'em 
often  and  teUing  'em  all."  He  knows  that  a  large  amount  of  space  is 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecuUve  messages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  ...  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simplicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  He 
prepares  his  copy  accordingly  ...  and  he  gets  response. 

It  Is  only  for  the  intelUgent  advertiser  that  advertMag  pays!

Negroes,  with  the  warning  that 
prejudice  against  both  groups  is 
on  the  Increase.  This  fact  how- 
ever, he  declares,  is  producing  n 
more  sympathetic  understanding 
for    each    other's    problems. 

"Although  Jews  still  resent  clas- 
sification with  the  Negro  as  a 
minority  group,  the  most  thought- 
ful o  fthcm  are  tkklng  a  keener 
interest  in  the  Negro  problem  out 
of  the  conviction  that  prejudice 
once  defined  toward  one  group  is 
easily  transferred  to  another.  Ne- 
groes who  have  found  it  difficult 
to  consider  the  Jew  as  an  op- 
pressed group,  now  realize,  in  the 
light  of  the  events  in  Germany, 
that  a  few  outstanding  bankers 
and  a  substantial  professional  and 
trading  class  do  not  necessarily 
guarantee  the  security  of 'a  min- 
ority group.  A  Negro  who  was  in 
Germany  during  the  height  of  the 
anti-Semitic  campaign  declared 
that  for  the  first  time  he  bad 
been  placed  in  a  position  where 
he  could  watch  a  white  group 
receiving  treatment  harsher  than 
that  accorded  to  his  people  in 
the    South." 

This  growth  of  sympathetic  un- 
derstanding for  each  other's  plight 
is  seen  by  Weinstein  as  a  sign 
of  happy  portent,  filled  with  sal- 
vaging possibilities  for  the  future 
of  America.  According  to  Mr. 
Weitisteilt, 

"It.  may  lead  to  a  more  effective 
resistance  to  the  forces  of  preju- 
dice, and  may  possibly  prevent 
the  permanent  stratification  of 
American  folk  into  an  Anglo- 
.Siucon  Protestant  in-group  and  a 
Negro-Jewish-Catholic-Oriental  out- 
group.  Such  a  stratification  would 
not  only  spell  the  end  of  American 
democracy  but  would  hopelessly 
confuse  our  public  issues  and  de- 
flect attention  from  the  real  ave- 
nues of  our  communal  well-being." 

The  Negro's  flight  to  religion 
aa  a  means  of  eacape  from  his 
v^orldly  environment  is,  according 
to  the  former  Rabbi,  not  unlfke 
that  of..M>e  Jew.  Concerning  this, 
he    offers    historical    proof: 

"In  the  forms  of  response  which 
the  NpRro  and  the  Jew  adopted 
toward  their  perMwution.  there  is 
even  a  greater  dcgre*  of  similarity 
than  in  the  prrsecntkm  itself. 
There  was  first  of  all  the  reaction 
•vhich  niaat  ofifireHsed  niinoritiea 
take— escape.  When  ronditinns  in 
thisi  world  arc  IntAleraMfi,  It  l» 
natural       that       compensation       be 

iMragift    in    a    world    tti*    from 

narthy  utnineit  and  linrftatloMa 
The  I'imIiiis,  thr  A|Mcryphai  liter- 
ature, the  niyittlc  tales  of  the  rab- 
bis of  the  .Mldraah  and  the  litUriO' 
of'  the  synagogue  gsvn  to  tho 
»V\(yt  of  rarli  geneKatloh  consola- 
tion and   escape." 

That  relfglon.  after  all,  may 
have  ttsen  the  Negro's  salvation 
'8  indicated  in  Weinstein's  con- 
clusion: 

"Th"  Negro,  however,  made  a 
more  jolly  "escape  world"  than 
the  Jew.  't'hc  Chasidim  (ecstatic 
Hebrew  mystics)  never  bec&me  a» 
numerous  as  the  Negro  holy  rol- 
lers, jumpers  and  dervishes.  The 
Jews  could  not  quite  tiirn  their 
Jebovab  into  the  kindly  ward- 
heeler  of  "Green  Pastures"  or 
implement  their  psalms  with  mu- 
sic OS  transporting  as  the  spiri- 
tuJrts.  They  were  a  taot  and  brittle 
people  Persecution  had  made 
them  tense  and  hypersensitive. 
Their  laughter  was  sardonic,  their 
wit  mordant,  thetr  abandon  hys- 
terical. From  the  same  material, 
the  resilent,  lip-lazy  Negro  creates 
Uncle  Remus  tales.  "Green  Pas- 
tures.' -Ron  Uttle  Chillua,"  while 
the  stiff-necked  Jew  creates  the 
legends  of  the  Boal-SHem,  the 
"Dybbuk"  and  "Yoshe  Kolb  Un 
der  the  Juggernaut  of  oppresstoa 
the  one  was  like  willowy  grass, 
the  other  unbending  stubl'le. 
There  have  been  more  suicides 
among  Jews  in  six  months  of  the 
Hitler  regime  than  there  were 
among  Negrt>eB  in  100  years  of 
white    oppression." 

The  Crisis  announces  that 
Weinstein  will  contribute  further 
articles  of  this  nature.  He  is  an 
authority  on  this  particular  sub- 
ject, having  written  his  rabbinical 
thesis  on  "Comparisons  in  the 
Persecutions  of  Negroes  and 
Jews."  In  gathering  material  for 
edgei  haviog  "parted"  as  a  N«lcro 
this  thesis.  Weinstein  ncknowl- 
in    Chicago    for    several    months.

'COME  I  NAT  3PHE  DOOR'  IS  PORTRAYAL  OF  SUPEB- 
STITIONS   of   SOrTHERN    YOITTH 


By  P.  H.  Britten 

Mr.  William  March,  author  of  "Company  K,"  has 
writttti  a  beautiful  novel  about  the  growing  up  of  a  white 
l)oy  in  thd  de^p  south.  His  workers  in  the  same  section, 
William  Paulkner,  with  whom  he  seems  to  have  a  certain 
kinship — are  grotesque,  often;  but  he  handles  the  eccentric 
and  jthe  horrible  with  a  simple  matter-of-counseness  which 
iomehow  tempers  their  strangeness. 

The  title,  drawn  from  a  Negro  spiritual,  phrases  the 
theme    of    the    novel    with    utmost^ 


passioA.  "My  lord  is  so  high,  you 
can't  go  over  him,  My  lord  is  so 
wid*<  )HHI  can't  go  'round  bim, 
My  lord  Is  so  deep,  you  can't  go 
under  him.  You  must  come  in  at 
the  door."  But  its  application  to 
that  forlorn  little  half-orphan  lad, 
Chester  Htffry,  whose  story  this 
is,  is  Freudian  rather  than  relig- 
ious. 

The  important  event  which 
pushes  little  Cheater  from  baby- 
hood into  childhood  and  changes 
the  whole  color  of  his  emotional 
experience  thereafter,  is  the  ar- 
rival on  the  farm  of  an  educated 
mulatto,  Simon  Larbque  Baptiste. 
In  a  moment  of  concern  over  his 
small  son's  ignorance.  Hurry  in- 
structs the  mulatto  to  teach  the 
lad  what  he  ought  to  know.  In 
Baptlste's  company,  therefore, 
Chester  learns  to  speak  French, 
looks  into  other  important  intel- 
lectual matters  beyond  his  previ- 
ous ken,  and  gets  his  first  stim- 
ulating taste  of  that  vast  delight 
whloh  the  play  of  mind  on  mind 
can  provide.  ITet  tiirough  a  curious 
childish  perversity  of  his  own,  the 
affectionate  Chester  sends  Bap- 
tiste, essentially  blameless,  to  his 
doom;  and  looks  on,  with  IMtty 
ip  the  courthouse  square,  whUe 
hia  friend  is  hanged.  His  anguish 
of  spirit  and  sense  of  childish 
guilt  bring  on  an  almost  fatal 
illness — from  which  he  recovers 
oblivious  of  what  hud  happened 
in  the  recent  past,  but  with  a 
troubled  sense  that  there  is  some- 
thing which  be  has  forgotten,  but 
most  remember  He  is  sent  off  to 
hIa  mother's  relatives  to  recuper- 
ate. Sobool  days,  his  marriage  and 
the  struggle  of  that  Idea  up  into 
consciousness  occupy,  most  suc- 
cessfully, the  remaining  chapters 
of  "Come  in  at'  the  Door."  The 
tatooing  of  the  significant  scene 
upon  the  sufferer's  body  as  an 
emotional  purgaUan-  a  graphic 
act  of  psychoanalysis,  so  to  speak 
-figures  in  Chester's  story;  and 
the  conflict  between  the  demands 
whith  a  loving  woman  puts  on 
hita  and  his  insistent  yet  always 
elusive  duty  to  the  dead  Baptiste 
is  a  war  in  the  mind  which  the 
woman    is    foreordained    to    lone. 

"Cone  in  at  the  DoOr"  is  plen- 
ttfiiUy  and  persuasively  peopled.

most    symp^the^iyill^    dj-awn.    The    Athens 


mixture  of  fear  and  affection 
which  makes  up  the  relation  of 
the  Negroes  to  the  whites  is  daft- 
ly indicated.  The  progre.ns  of  n 
"conjur"  laying  hold  of  the  com- 
paratively sophisticated  Baptiste 
and  throwing  him  back  grovelling 
in  fear  among  the  superstitions  of 
his  origin  is  as  dramatic  as  the 
breakdown  of  the  >aunty  courage 
of  the  Umi>eror  Jones. 

Among  the  whites,  too.  besidea 
the  all-important  Chester,  are  In- 
terestmg  characters:  particularly 
Chester's  amiably  eccentric  Uncle 
Bushrod  with  his  crazy  passion 
for  the  lecherous  Ruby,  destined 
to  bring  him  at  once  his  lifetime 
romance  and  his  loathsome  death. 
Almost  all  the  ch.'iracters,  white 
and  black  and  mixed  blood,  are 
warpad  and  driven  by  powerful 
obaessions  stampeil  upon  them  by 
conflicting  truditionH,  not  only  of 
racial  inheritam^  but  of  a  present 
at   war   with   the   post. 

"Come  in  ut  the  Door"  is  beau- 
tifnily  written,  and  with  so  deli- 
cate a  perception  of  values  that 
ugliuess  is  almost  invariably 
transmoted  into  beauty  There  are 
occasional  startling  solecisms  In 
grammar,  however,  and  the  horri- 
bly gauche  recurrent  phrase  "But 
such  was  not  the  case"  comes  aa 
a.  shock  In  the  -midst  of  a  context 
otherwi.se   so   invariably  congruous.

Week  of  June  21,  1934 


lAW  AND  LYNCHING 

TO  STOP  LYNCHING,  human  nature  and 
not  law  needs  changing.  This,  in  effect, 
IS  the  dictum  of  Professor  A.  M.  Kidd  of 
the  School  of  Jurisprudence  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  CaUfomia,  stated  this  week  in  a 
speech  to  the  law  section  members  of  the 
Commonwealth  Club. 

Professor  Kidd  fouhd  lynching  to  be 
caused  by  "a  desire  to  commit  murder 
without  rcsponsibiUty,  by  a  craving  for  an 
exciting  spectacle,  a  sadistic  pleasure  in 
death  and  mutilation,  and  the  contagion  of 
mob  spirit."  He  doubts  the  efficacy  of 
legal  and  procedural  changes  in  the  ad- 
rainistiation  of  justice  as  a  means  for  end- 
ing  lynching. 

Frankly,  the  Professor's  opinion  is 
bomewhat  disheartening.  If  he  has  no 
faith  in  the  law  as  an  instrument  of  the 
civilizing  process,  what  does  he  suggest  as 
a  substitute?  Would  it  be  that  over- 
worked, Utopian  cure-all — education?  Or 
does  Mr.  Kidd  despair  of  ever  refining  the 
coarser  elements  of  human  nature? 

In  The  Spokesman's  opinion,  law  may 
be  ever  so  feeble  a  civiliadng  force,  but  so 
are  all  nrnn's  attempts  to  conquer  nature. 
Yet,  at  one  time  in  his  history  man  cus- 
tomarily practiced  cannibalism,  infanti- 
cide, witch-burning,  murder  as  a  sacrificial 
rite,  and  numerous  types  of  mayhem.  He 
did  all  these  things  without  punishment, 
or  without  even  the  sense  of  guilt.  That  he 
has  discontinued  these  practices  in  most 
sections  of  the  world  (the  Southern  States 
of  the  U.  S.  A.  excepted)  is  a  testimonial 
tx>  the  effectiveness  of  law  as  a  civilizing 
agency. 

Had  this  Congress  ratified  the  Costi- 
gan-Wagner  Anti-Lynching  bill,  and  had 
the  new  law  been  strictly  enforced,  it  is 
not  too  optimistic  to  believe  that  lynchings 
in  America  would  have  soon  departed  to 
that  hallowed  sanctuary  of  man's  inhu- 
manities to  man,  and  taken  its  rightful 
place  beside  cannibalism.

REASONS  FOR  THE  "SHKIAING" 

OF    THE    ANri-LYNCHING    BILL 

WITH  C0NGRE:SS  having  appropriated 
much  time  and  money  for  the  investi- 
gation and  disposal  of  seemingly  unim- 
portant business,  some  explanation  is 
needed  for  its  apparent  dereliction  with 
regard  to  a  measure  of  unquestionable 
import.  The  people,  and  especially  one 
certain  group,  ought  to  know  the  where- 
fore of  this  strange  transposition  in  the 
order  of  business. 

Without  positive  knowledge  of  the 
facts,  such  an  explanation  should  not  be 
attempted  without  the  quaUfying  admis- 
sion of  its  opinionative  nature.  According- 
ly, for  your  judicious  contemplation  the 
following  reasons  for  the  shelving  of  the 
anti-lynching  bill  are  submitted: 

1.  Popular  underestimation  of  the  men- 
ace of  lynching  to  American  institutions 
and  ideals. 

2.  The  usual  difficulty  of  getting  action 
on  measures  to  which  no  opportunities  for 
graft,  political  influence,  or  demagoguery 
attach. 

3.9Vpathy     and     impotence     of     those 
whom  the  measure  is  designed  to  protect.

BUND,  THOUGH  WITH  EYES 

ACCORDING  to  Today,  weekly  journal 
edited  by  former  brain-trustee  Ray- 
mond Moley,  the  Fascist  peril  is  rapidly 
diminishing  in  the  United  tSates.  As  Edi- 
tor Moley  expresses  it — 

"The  tinsel  empire  of  William  Dudley 
Pelley,   would-be  3uccejSS0C  to  UlQ  KuJ 
Klux  Klan  Dragons,  has  crumbled  rap- 
idly since  Today's  recent  exposure  of  his 
Silver  Shirt  movement.  Pelley  himself  is 
a  fugitive.  He  and  two  of  his  chief  dis- 
ciples,  now   under  bond,   have   been   in- 
dicted on  charges  of  violating  the  North 
Carolina  Blue  Sky  laws  by  selling  stock 
in    the   Galahad    Press.    The    press    has 
been   thrown   into   bankruptcy.    Publica- 
tion   of    Liberation,    his    anti-Catholic, 
anti-Semitic.     anti-Roosevelt,     anti-Com- 
munist weekly  magazine,  has  been  sus- 
pended.   The    Silver    Legionairea,    who 
'marched  in   46  states,'  are  disbanding. 
AH  this  is  merely  new  proof  that  such 
an     un-American,     barbarir     institution 
eannot    long    exist    when    dragged    into 
■41m  open." 

Wc    find    ourselves    unable    completely 
to  ahare  Mr.  Moley's  assurance  that  Fas- 
haa  decUoed.  Nor  are  we  certain  that 
^  ggtt  «C  AiMrt«»  m  too  inhoapitaMe  for 


the    long-lived    growth    of    barbaric,  un-    } 

American    institutions.    The    peonage  and 

chain-gang    systems    of    the    South  are 

..bundant    evidence    to    the    contrary.  Be- 
bides,  although  there  may  be  no  Ku  Klux 

Klan  in  the  United  States,  there  are  mil- 
lions of  Ku  Klux  Klansmen.

CAl'SE  FOR   MOURNING 

REGRETTTABLE  exceedingly  is  the  recent 
resignation  of  Eklward  Rainey  from  the 
office  of  superintendent  of  the  state 
i;anking  department.  Not  only  has  the 
state  lost  an  able  official,  but  racial  min- 
orities have  lost  an  ever  alert  and  sympa- 
ihetic    friend. 

For  Mr.  Rainey  this  newspaper  has  the 
highest  admiration.  He  possesses  in  high 
degree  the  capacity  for  loyalty,  as  was 
exemplified  in  his  devotion  to  Governor 
Rolph,  not  all  of  whose  official  acts  he 
approved,  but  whose  friendship  he  never 
betrayed.  He  has  a  sense  of  justice,  and 
the  courage  to  defend  the  weak  and  unin- 
fluential.  His  resignation  from  public  of- 
fice is  a  calamity  to  the  people  of  Cali- 
fornia. 

***** 

A  SALUTE  TO  MAXIE 

EDITORS  ought  not  to  be  moved  by 
prejudice,  least  of  all  editors  of  Afra- 
mcrican  newsi)apers.  Yet,  we  cannot  help 
confessing  that  Max  Baer's  recent  victory 
in  the  prize-ring  left  us  with  a  feeling  of 
elation. 

It  is  not  Mr.  Baer's  prowess  as  a 
fighter  which  moves  us  to  joy.  One  adult 
gorilla  could  "lick  the  socks  off"  a  dozen 
Bacrs  in  as  many  minutes. 

Perhaps  it  is  because  Mr.  Baer  is  a 
Jew  that  we  share  in  his  own  dehght  at 
being  champion.  Jews  represent  the  under- 
dog to  us.  And  our  own  experience  impels 
us  always  to  "root"  for  the  under-dog.

DUBOIS  QUITS  NATIONAL  ASSN. 

THE  SEVERANCE  of  the  relations  of  Dr. 
William  E.  B.  DuBois  with  the  National 
Association  for  the  Advancement  of  Col- 
ored People,  which  everyone  has  been  ex- 
pecting lately,  came  on  June  11  in  the 
form  of  Dr.  DuBois'  resignation  as  direct- 
or of  publications  and  research,  editor 
The  Crisis,  and  all  other  connections  with 
the  association.  iHs  resignation  is  the  cul- 
mination of  a  feud  with  Walter  White, 
secretary,  and  the  board  of  directors,  as 
well  as  many  substantial  friends  and  sup- 
porters of  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.,  who  were 
tighast  when  Dr.  DuBois  recently  gave  ex- 
pression to  views  on  racial  segregation 
wiLh  which  Mr.  White  and  other  N.  A.  A. 
C.  P.  officals  were  not  in  agreement. 

Dr.  DuBois  said  in  substance  that  it  is 
better  for  the  race  to  accept  segregation 
under  certain  unavoidable  circumstances, 
than  to  lose  further  ground  in  the  matter 
of  subsistence.  He  defended  his  position 
logictdly.  When  he  was  called  upon  the 
carpet  for  taking  the  position,  and  de- 
fending it,  and  for  criticizing  Secretary 
White  while  defending  it,  he  resigned 
father  than  yield. 

The  whole  controversy  between  Dr. 
DuBois  and  his  colleagues  has  been  aired 
thoroughly  in  the  press  of  the  country  and 
in  The  Crisis,  the  official  organ  of  the 
association,  so  much  so  that  most  people 
v/ho  follow  the  race  papers  are  quite  fa- 
miliar with  both  sides  of  it.  Apparently 
the  National  Association  emerges  victor. 
At  least  the  association  preserves  the  in- 
flexibility of  its  policy  of  opposing  racial 
separation  by  legal  or  other  means.  In 
adopting  this  policy  in  its  inception  the 
N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  apparently  had  in  mind  the 
securing  of  equal  rights  under  the  law — 
difficult  to  secure  where  racial  distinc- 
tions are  allowed  to  void  such  rights — and 
equal  economic  opportunity  for  the  Negro. 
The  National  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored  People  occupies  a 
professional  relationship  to  the  Negro  race 
comparable  to  the  professional  relation- 
ship that  the  American  Federation  of  La- 
bor sustains  to  its  cUentele.  The  latter 
could  not  afford  to  relax  in  its  efforts  to 
get  the  maximum  of  benefits  for  organized 
labor.  The  association  would  be  out  of  an 
occupation  when  it  ceased  to  oppose  seg- 
regation without  reservations — seg^regation 
in  all  that  the  term  means  to  the  Negro — 
loss  of  legal  rights,  denial  of  opportunity 
to  work,  to  receive  the  benefits  of  educa- 
tion, social  service,  security  in  property 
rights,  safety  of  life  and  limb. 

Dr.  DuBois  may  be  ever  so  logical;  he 
may  be  absolutely  right  in  the  position 
he  has  taken,  but  having  been  associated 
with  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  during  all  of  its 
life  and  having  promulgated  its  principles 
he  can  never  make  his  logic  clear  to  those 
who  have  not  been  accustomed  to  seeing 
him  cast  in  a  different  role.  His  error  was 
i  mot  severing  his  connection  with  the  as- 
sociation before  announcing  his  conversion 
to  the  policy  of  flexibility,  which  is  sound 
inough  to  people  who  have  no  profession- 
al interest  to  serve. — Norfolk  Journal  and 
Guide.

Not  only  has  the   N.  A    A.  C.   P  |i!i'liilJ3    fur    civil    service    poslttona  '

against  lynching,  segregation  and 
discrimination,  but  it  has  fought 
with  equal  consistency  for  justice 
for  the  Negro  workers. 

In  -1113  when  the  discrimination 
igainst  colored  firemen  on  tbt 
Southern  Fluilwny  by  a  white  fire- 
men's union  resulted  in  the  loss 
of  good  runs  and  employment,  the 
.Association  helped  organize  the 
Negro  v/orkers  and  sent  a  com- 
mittee to  confer  with  officials  ot 
the  Southern  Railway  in  Wash- 
ington, D.  C.  The  company's  of- 
fioi'ils  agreed  that  no  future  <;on- 
tract.s  of  employment  would  be 
peruitt.'d  without  notifying  the 
Negro  firemen  so  that  they  might 
be  represented  and  protected. 
When  the  contract  with  the  white 
firemen  expired  on  June  1,  1912, 
it  wiis  not  renewed.  The  Negro 
firemen  were  reinstated  on  the 
good  runs  and  got  back  their  po- 
sitions. 
I'OKTERS'    STRrOOLE 

During  the  same  year,  the  Chl- 
ca~o  IJrunch  waged  a  fight 
against  the  so-called  "full-crew 
bill"  which,  if  pa.sscd,  would  have 
deprived  U3  colored  chair  car 
porters  of  their  positions.  The 
branch  found  that  many  state 
legislators  were  pledged  to  pass 
the  bill  in  fulfillment  of  pre-elec- 
tion     p  r  o  m  i  .s  e  .s.     Through      the 


I  lie    order     resulted     in     no     more 
Netroea     being    appointed     to     po- 
stilions   in    the    Phillipplnes. 
.NATIONAL    LEGISLATION 

These  efforts  to  segregate  Ne- 
j;iii  civil  service  workers  culmi- 
ii.ited  In  the  introduction  of  the 
Aswell-Edwards  bill  designed  to 
make  such  a  policy  national.  Be- 
1,1, i^e  of  N,  A.  A,  C.  P.  opposi- 
tion, the  bill  was  never  reported 
out  of  cpmmlttee.  Meanwhile  the 
Association  waged  a  fight  to  have 
included  in  the  proposed  Smith- 
Lever  Bill  for  agricultural  aid, 
y|ecified  provisions  for  Negro 
f;iimcrs.  This  fight  brought  the 
wliole  race  Issue  squarely  before 
Congress  and  aroused  a  nation- 
wide discussion  and  publicity  ex- 
ceedingly distasteful  to  Congres- 
sional   Democrats. 

The  first  brearh  in  the  seg- 
regulion  policy  In  the  Depurt- 
iiient  of  the  Interior  in  Wosh- 
in^ton  was  made  in  Wn  when 
two  Negro  clerks  'were  ordered 
to  reiKtrt  an  pension  examiners. 
Shortly  afterward  i2  colored  em- 
ployees in  the  same  department 
were  ordered  back  to  their  old 
HUd  unsegregated  posts,  thus 
I'nding  segregation  in  the  el'n- 
sion  Bureau,  Departmenl  ot  the 
Interior. 
The     Association     next     attacked 


clerks  in  the  General  Land  Of 
fice.  Fifteen  of  the  21  clerks  af- 
fected signed  a  letter  addressed 
to  Secretary  Work,  protesting 
against  enforced  segregation.  This 
was  followed  by  similar  action  in 
behalf  of  colored  clerks  through- 
out the  Treasury  Department. 
These  breaches  in  the  Govern- 
ment's segregation  policy  In  1927 
were  the  result  of  a  well  planned 
and  persistent  campaign  waged 
by  the  District  of  Columbia  N,  A. 
A.  C.  P. 
FOKCINO   OPEN  JOBS 

The  Boston  branch  in  1918  suc- 
ceeded in  getting  a  colored  woman 
postal  clerk  into  a  position  from 
which  she  had  been  barred  but 
to  which  she  was  entitled.  The 
Danville,  Va.,  branch  forced  the 
appointment  of  a  Negro  as  letter 
currier  who  had  been  barred 
despite  his  successfully  passing 
the  examination  five  times.  The 
Washington.  D,  C,  branch  won  ap 
pointment      for 


grapher   and   typist   who  bad   been  !  priation   of  J5,000. 

barred    because    of    race.  |      In       191!),       the       Pueblo. 


Branch's    activities    the    bill    failed  '  discrimination     again.st     colored 
even   to   be   reported   out   of    com- 
mittee. 

In   November    Utlg,  despite   op- 
position    of     white     unions,     the 
Association  farced  the  withdraw- 
al   of   nn    order    of    the    Kegional 
Director     of     K.illroHds     for     the 
North   Western  District  advising 
against     employment     of     Negro 
workers   as   switchmen,    firemen, 
hostlers    or    In    any    positions    in 
which    they    had    not    been    pre- 
viously   eni|)loyed. 
WINS    FIGirr    FOU    TRAINMEN 
In   1919.   the   Association   led   the 
fight    against    the    effort    of   white 
unions    to    defeat    seniority    as    to 
choice   of   runs  where   Negro   flag- 
men,    baggagemen,     brakemen     or 
switchmen    were    involved    and    to 
prevent     further     use     of     Negro 
workers     as     conductors,     flagmen, 
baggagemen     or    yard     conductors. 
The   assistant    secretary,    represen- 
tatives of   the   Colored   Association 
of  llailway   Employees   and   of   the 
Louisville     branch,     filed      protest 
against     this     r.tnk     discrimination 
v/ith     the     oBard     of     Wages     and 
Working    Conditions    of    the    Rail- 
road  Administration;    Especial    em- 
l<haiis    was     laid     on    the    evil     of 
pu>iag    porter's    wages    to    Negroes 
performing     a     higher     grade     of 
service.    Victory    resulted,    colored 
workers  being  granted  an  increase 
of    $12,525    monthly    in    wages   with 
back    increases    exceeding    $125,000, 
FIREMEN    nniRDERED 

Early  in  1921,  disgruntled  white 
firemen  in  Mississippi,  Tennessee 
and  .-surrounding  states,  begun  an-

dered, liTe  colored  workers  re- 
fused to  quit  and  the  reign  of 
terror  started.  Trains  were  flagged 
at  lonely  stations,  black  trainmen 
were  pulled  off,  severely  beaten 
and  In  a  number  of  cases  killed. 
Appeals  to  local  officials  was  un-

Eternal  vigilance  on  the  part  ol

PROTEST    PEONAGE 

Following  ihe  exposure  of  the

in  Jasjier  County,  Ga .  in  1921, 
N,  A.  A.  C.  P.  branches  in  30 
Northern  cities  staged  monster 
mass  meetings  protesting  against 
peonage  and  calling  upon  the  U. 
S,  Department  of  Justice  to  bring 
to  justice  all  cotton  planters  guilty 
of  peonage.  This  stirred  the  de- 
partment to  prompt  and  effective 
.action.  In  1922,  following  reports

Berkeley,  In  the  vicinity  ot 
Ashby  Avenue  and  Sacramento 
Streil  Is  seeing  the  first  attempt 
by  Negroes  In  the  bay  area  to- 
ward the  organluitlou  of  a  race- 
controlled    business   district. 

Several  years  ago  Mr.  Moot- 
gomcry  opened  a  drug  store  there. 
8loce  then  more  and  more  Ne- 
groes have  opened  shops  in  the 
vicinity  until  today  there  are  sev- 
eral barber  shops,  two  gasoline 
service  stations  and  a  clcaolog 
and  dyeing  establishment,  a  print- 
er, a  pool  hall,  a  grocery  store,  a 
restaurant,  a  poultry  store  and  a 
real  estate  office  Besides  lltesc, 
the  MacMsrr  chain  store  located 
on  that  corner  employs  a  Negro 
clerk. 

Besides  being  a  fine  thing  from 
the  viewpoint  of  Negro  economics, 
the  training  of  these  young  men 
and  women  are  gaining  In  lolUa- 
tlve  and  business  training  will  be 
valuable  to  themselves  and  to  the 
group. 

It  is  about  time  Sao  Francisco 
started  sometblog  in  this  direc- 
tion. 

This  quotaUoB  Is  from  Alfred 
Adier's  book  on  psychology,  "Un- 
derstanding  Human    Nature  " 

The  quotation  Is  from  his  chap- 
ter on  sex,  and  deals  with  women. 
I'll  leave  you  to  draw  the  para- 
llel. 

"A  girl  In  daily  subjected  to 
the  argument  that  girls  are  lea* 
capable  than  boys  und  are  suit- 
able only  for  unessential  activit- 
ies. It  Is  not  surprising  then  that 
a  girl  Is  firmly  convinced  of  the 
unchangeable  and  bitter  fate  of  a 
woman  and  sooner  or  later  be- 
cause of  her  lack  of  training  In 
childhood,  actually  believes  In  her 
own  incapability. 

"Discouraged  in  this  manner,  a 
girl  approaches  'maaculint'  occu- 
paUons  If  the  opportunity  to  ap- 
proach them  ever  presents,  with  a 
foregone  conclusion  that  she  will 
not  have  the  necessary  interest 
(or  them.  Should  she  possess  such 
Interest  she  soon  loses  It,  and 
thus  she  IS  denied  both  an  outer 
and    an    inner    preparatlnn. 

"Under  such  circumstances  proof 
of  the  incapability  of  woman 
SEEM8  valid.  There  are  two 
causes  for  this.  In  tb«  first  place 
the  ERROR  Is  accentuated  by 
the  fact  that  the  value  of  a  hu- 
man being  is  frequently  Judged 
from  purely  business  standpoints, 
or  on  one-sided  and  purely  egois- 
tic grounds  With  such  prejudices 
we  can  hardly  be  expected  to  un- 
derstand how  far  performance 
and  capability  are  coincident  with 
pa(rchlc  development  And  this 
leads  us  to  the  second  main  fac- 
tor to  which  the  fallacy  of  the 
lesser  capability  of  wonuui  may 
thank  its  existence.  It  la  a  fre- 
quently overlooked  fact  that  a 
girl  comes  Into  the  world  with  a 
prejudice  sounding  in  her  cars 
which  Is  designed  only  to  rob  her 
of  her  belief  In  her  own  vaiiM.  to 
shatter  her  self-confldenoa  and 
destroy  her  hop*  of  ever  doing 
anything  worth  while  If  this 
prejudice  is  coastantly  being 
strengthened,  if  •  gtrl  sees  again 
and  again  how  women  are  given 
servile  roles  to  play,  it  is  not 
hard  to  understand  how  she  loaes 
courage,  falls  to  foes  her  obllfa- 
tinns.  and  sinks  back  from  the  ao- 
lullon  of  her  life's  problems  Then 
indeed  she  Is  useless  and  Incapa- 
ble! Tet  If  we  aproach  a  human 
"ing,    undermine    his    self-raspect 

'  far  as  his  relationship  to  so- 
ciety Is  concerned,  causo  bim  to 
abandon  all  hope  of  ever  accom- 
plishing anything,  ruin  his  cour- 
age, and  then  find  that  h«  oarer 
amounts  to  anything,  then  we 
dare  not  mention  that  wa  were 
right,  for  we  must  admit  that  It 
Is  WR  who  have  caused  all  bis 
sorrow!"  ^^i*.

the  t>i-<t  way  they  could  their  de- 
sire to  see  the  Scottsboro  boys 
puni.ihed. 

Judge  Horton  whs  catapulted 
into  the  national  stwtlight  when 
he  was  chosen  to  preside  at  the 
second  Scottsboro  trial  during 
which  Haywood  Patterson  was 
found  giiilly  and  sentenced  to  die. 
On  a  motion  for  a  new  trial  from 
ralterson's  attorneys.  Judge  Hor- 
ton set  aside  the  verdict  in  the 
second  trial 
SfOTTNBOKO    B()VS 

He  rendered  a  painstaking  opin- 
ion In  which  he  slated  that  the 
evidence  produced  by  the  state 
did    not    Justify    the    vcrdicL 

rbcre  was  an  immediate  reac- 
tion throughout  the  state.  Judge 
Horton  was  denounced,  not  mere- 
ly by  the  mob.i,  but  by  others  who 
have  dlstingiushed  themselves  as 
leaders  and  directors  of  mob  s«n- 
timent.  Among  these  was  former 
r'ntted  States  Senator  Thomas  J. 
Hcflin. 

These  Uader.s  organized  to  pre- 
vent Judge  Horton  from  presiding 
at  the  third  trial  Judge  W.  W 
Callahan  was  substituted  in  his 
place 
THE     WULSI'^KINii     (  A.'HI'AIU.N 

At  the  same  lime  a  mouth  to 
mouth  campaign  against  Judge 
Horton  was  carried  on.  even  be- 
fore the  first  primary.  The  feeling 
Horton  had  grown  to  such  pro- 
portions before  the  primary  that 
he  decided  not  to  run  rather  than 
to     risk    being    dedicated 

However  business  and  profes- 
sional interest  got  behind  him  and 
persuaded    him    to    make    the    race. 

The  better  element  behind  Hor- 
ton showed  the  same  lack  of 
power  that  is  usually  demonstrat- 
ed In  southern  communities  when 
it  comes  to  grips  with  a  man  in 
the   street 

In  the  nomination  for  governor 
the  Negroes  seem  to  have  b««n 
fortunate  The  present  governor 
has  been  a  somewhat  colorlcas 
character,  lacking  In  those  broad 
social  Interests  which  character- 
ised former  executives.  Ijut  Tues- 
day Bibb  Graves,  governor  from 
1077  to  IMl,  was  reelected,  the 
first  man  who  has  been  able  to 
turn    that    trick    In    3u   years. 

Although  lynchings  occurred 
during  Grave's  administration,  an 
effort  was  made  by  this  commis- 
sion to  punish  those  responsible. 
Sheriffs  were  removed  and  other 
guilty    persons    punished. 

When  Governor  Miller  took  of- 
fice one  of  his  first  acts  was  to 
abolish  the  state  law  enforcement 
commission  Therefore  Graves' 
victory  over  Miller  was  gratifying 
to  tha  Ntgro  population.

Color  Prejudice  of  tiir  Race 

Is  iHolating  it  in  Ainer- 

ica.   Says 


OKL>\HOMA  CITY,  June  27  — 
Thou.sands  of  white  people  all 
over  America  gladly  would  join 
th?  National  Association  for  the 
Advancement  of  Colored  People 
and  support  its  program  if  they 
were  properly  educated  and  re- 
cruited  by   colored   people. 

This  was  the  aaaertion  of  Miss 
Mary  White  Ovington,  treasurer 
of  the  association,  and  one  of  its 
founders  in  1909,  in  her  address 
to  the  opening  mass  meeting  of 
the  2.')th  annual  conference  to- 
night   at    Calvary    Baptist    Church. 

Mis.s  Ovington  declared  most 
white  people  were  "abysmally  ig- 
norant"  of  the  problems  of  Ne- 
groes and  urged  colored  people  to 
drop  their  own  race  prejudice  and 
.'tpproach  whites  "man  to  man" 
and  ask  them  to  join  in  the  work 
of  the  association.  After  telling 
something  of  the  beginning  of  the 
association  and  its  achievements 
in  the  past  2S  years.  Miss  Oving- 
ton appealed  for  a  larger  white 
membership,    saying: 

"There     is     one     very     noticeable 
change     between     the     Assoctatioa 
of    2S   years    ago   and    the    Associa- 
tion   of    today,    the     proportion    ot 
Negroes    to    whites.     At    our    first 
conference,    held    in    1909    in    New 
York    City,    the    number    of    wbita 
and    colored    was    al>out    even.    To- 
day   the    v.-hltes    are    not    one    in    a 
hundred.    Only  at   the    meetings   of 
the    board,    do    wc    have    decMoaa

"""aecbnd   gucasc-rs   are   popping   ofpi^hut    Sammy    Slaughter 

'.•.t...Aapk  a  "dive"  in  his  bout  with  FrM^ie  Steele  last  Friday 

night  at  Dreamland.  The  write*  dtoes  ifot  attempt  to  say  the 

--••  Tcrre   Haute   Kegro   did   not   go '"tfcvJn   without   being   hit 

during  his  nine  triim  to  the  canvdfe!' for  we  were  not  among 

those  present,  but  if  he  is  guilty  of  the  dry  tank  act,  I  am 

ready  to  believe  the  sport  scribe^j  reports  that  Steele  was 

.    .    primed,  for  a- crack  at  Young  Cogbejtt  and  that  not  only 

Slaughter,  but  Steele,  his  handlers  find  all  others  connected 

•"•with  the  combat  wei-e  "in"  on  th^  dpal. 

However,   my  opinion   leads  jpjie ^to  say   that   making 

weight  so  weakened  Sammy,  thaj^,,^h^  first  blow  that  sent 

J  y^i^p  to  the  floor,  had  a^  tclUng  effcjCt  and  that  the  Colored 

"•  '  •bo^  never  fully  recovered.  If  your  memory  does  not  serve 

•y©u,  get  j-our  Spokesman  of  last  week  and  in  a  story  in 

....  this  same  column  you  will  find  these  words,  "...  meets 

Steele  tonight  and  unless  making  weight  handicfips   him, 

ghould  return  winner  after  a  hard  bout." 

I  mentioned  the  fact  that  the  making  of  weight  might 
hurt.  Slaughter's"  chances   of   winning;,    owing    to    the    fact 
that  his  manager  Sam  Jones  had  given  me  that  informa- 
tion between  lines  during  our  conversation  at  the  Baseball 
P&rk  the  previous  Sunday  when  I  introduced  the  boxer  to 
'.      the  diamond  fans.   Jones  had  brought   his   protege   down 
;       from  the  woods  of  Ukiah  Sunday  for   a  workout   at   the 
J       gjm  and  to  be  on  hand  at  the  park.  He  left  the  park  early, 
I      because  the.\-  had  to  return  to  the  park  early,  because  they 
;       had  to  return  to  the  mountain  spot  and  complete  the  hard 
grind  of  taking  off  weight.   Sanuny   tipped   the  scales  at 
.       764';;  that  day,  his  best  fighting  ^ight,  but  the  manager 
^       told  me  Steele's  handlers  made  him^ost  a  $250  forfeit  to 
!       come  in   under  the   160-pound   limit,    hence   the    125   mile 
■       return  trip  to  Ukiah.  Making  weight  has  beat  more  than 

•  one  boxer,  and  I  believe  that's  what  beat  Sammy  Slaughter. 

•  The  pair  are  scheduled  for  a  rematch  on  either  July 

•  6  or  13  Rnd  if  Stimmy  is  forced  to  make  weight   again, 
there  is  tixe  possbility  of  a  repetition  of  last  week's  fracais, 

!       if  not,  tab  Slaughter  to  give  Steele  the  Rght  of  his  life.

combat.  The  Elks  copped  the 
First  Half  and  it's  a  good  thing 
Ihey  did,  for  their  forces  have

teams  are  pointing  at  thera.  Mow-

all  teams  have  the  same  per-

Of  course  we  believe  in  the  ole  proverb  of  being  a 
"square  shooter,"  more  so  since  receiving  details  of  the 
"shooting"  of  the  finish  by  movie  cameras  of  all  events 
at  the  National  Collegiate  Athletic  Association  meet  in 
Los  Angeles  last  Saturday  afternoon.  Of  course  there  was 
one  Race  star  who  needed  no  flickers  to  help  decide  his 
events,  and  that,  was  Ralph  lyUtcalfe,  who  galloped  so 
far  ahead  of  the  /ield  in  the  100  an4^220  yard  events,  that 
there  was  little  cpqtest.  The  ",W(orid's  Fastest  Human" 
turned  the  century  in  9.7  seconds  and  20.9  for  the  longer 
sprint.  Not  so  in  three  other  events,  which  speaks  not  so 
well    for    the    judges.  ■" 

In  the  high  hurdle  they  picked  George  Fisher  of  La. 
State  as  1st,  Sam  Klopstock,  St^hford,  2nd  and  Amsden 
Oliver,  Colored  flash  of  Miami  Coyege,  Ohio  as  3rd.  Many 
hours  later,  after  seeing  slow  motion  pictures  of  the  finish, 
thej'  found  that  Msher  was  really  3rd,  trailing  Oliver  and 
changed  the  records  to  read  in  th*t  manner.  Whereas  the 
films  gave  the  Oliver  lad  a  seconfl  position,  it  also  showed 
that  James  Luvalle,  the  coffee-oolored  U.  C.  L.  A.  star, 
was  6th  instead  of  5th  in  the  440-yard  event,  Ed  Albowich 
getting  the  latter  spot  and  James  6th  place.  Glen  Hardin 
of  La.  State  was  the  winner  of  the  quarter  mile,  with  a 
meet  record  of  47  flat.  He  also  topped  the  220-yard  loW 
hurdles  with  this  Sepia,  chap  01iv«r  of  Ohio  right  on  his 
heels  and  pushing  him  on  to  break  the  accepted  world's 
nmrk  of  23  seconds.  Tlie  new  record  is  22.7.  TTie  results 
of  tth  and  5th  place  in  the  IfX)  "tfcre  also  readjusted  by 
the  camera  and  if  the  work  of  the  judges  of  this  meet  are 
a  criterion  of  future  athletic  events,  I  suggest  that  they 
taboo  the  gents  and  use  the  flicker  box  entirely.

TO  HELP  APPEAL 

OF  RAPE  SUSPECT 

NKW  YORK,  June  22  -The  Na- 
tional Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored  People  will 
contribute  toward  the  expenses 
of  an  appeal  in  tne  case  of  Sam- 
uel Smith,  Lewlstown,  Pa  "rape" 
frameup    victim. 

Mr  Smith,  a  reputable  colored 
citizen  and  business  man  of  Lew- 
istown.  was  tried  In  November 
1933.  charged  by  a  whiU  woman, 
Ada  Wise,  with  assault  with,  intent 
to  rape,  and  found  guilty  despite 
a  ijerfect  alibi,  on  her  sole  testi- 
mony. On  June  4,  1»S4,  the  trial 
court  refused  a  new  trial.  Smith 
has  not  yet  been  sentenced  but 
immediately  this  is  done  an  ap- 
peal   will    be    filed. 

Paul  S.  Lehman,  white,  8mith"s 
attorney,  declares  that  the  con- 
viction is  a  clear  miscarriage  of 
justice  based  on  race  prejudice. 
Mr.  Smith  is  a  successful  and 
respected  business  man  of  Lewis- 
town,  and  the  charge  against  him 
clearly  grows  out  of  his  denuuid 
that  the  Wise  woman  vacate  quar- 
ters owned  by  him  and  her  failure 
to  do  so  after  be  had  called  • 
constable.

BARGAIN  RATES 

for   intelligent,  thrifty  advertisers! 


EFFECTIVE  June  12,  1934,  The  Spokesman  rates  for  advertising 
provide  extraordinarily  liberal  quantity  and  time  discounts. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  special  regard  for  the 
intelligent  and  thrifty  advertiser,  who  desires  the  greatest  reader 
response  at  the  least  cost. 

Though  prepared  primarily  for  merchants,  included  also  are 
marked  reductions  in  CHURCH.  FRATERNAL.  ORGANIZATION, 
and  CLASSIFIED  rates.) 

THRIFTY  ADVERTISEIRS  are  not  deceived  by  spurious  circu- 
lation figfures.  They  know  that  quality  of  circulation  is  more  im- 
portant than  quantity;  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  is 
rewarded  will  depend  on  thrc-e  things: 

1 .  The  reader's  buying  power. 

2.  The  reader's  confidence  in  the  newspaper  containing  the  adver- 
tiser's message. 

3.  The  cost  of  advertising. 

BUYING  POWER  of  Aframcricans,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  discovered,  is  commensurate  to  that  of  other  Americans. 
Even  in  the  impoverished  Southland,  the  United  States  Census  Bureau 
con)pile<j[,  in  1930  the  following  significant  information: 

NEXJRO   PURCHASING    POWER    IN    NINE    IMPORTANT    CITIES 
AND  ITS  DISTRIBUTION  FOR  PRINCTPAL  GROUPS  OF  ITEMS  OF 

COST  OF  UVING 


THIS  NEWSPAPER,  because  of  its  dependence  in  large  measure 
on  revenue  obtained  from  cireulation,  is  able  to  offer  the  advertiser 
rates  far  below  those  generally  set  for  the  opportunity  of  addressing 
this  type  of  market. 

Send  for  our  new  RATE  CARD,  or  ask  for  a  trained  advertising 
representative  to  call.

yNTELLIGENT  ADVERTISERS  do  not  expect  a  newspaper  to 
guarantee  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 

or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  respwnsiveness  of  those  readers. 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  thing  advertised. 

RELADER  RE^SPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  is  a 
condition  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  VALUES  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  method  by  which  the  thing  for  sale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspaper  can  help  the  advertiser  address  its  readers 
in  an  effective  message.  But  no  newspaper  can  put  value  into  a  product 
if  its  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  gain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECTIVE  ADVERTISING  METTHODS, 
distinguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
customer  may  be  deceived  once,  or  perhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finally  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  will 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelligent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  an 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  repetJtton,  of  "telling  'em 
often  and  telling  'em  all."  He  knows  that  a  large  amount  of  space  is 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecutive  measages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  .  .  .  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simfriicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  He 
prepares  his  copy  accordingly  .  .  .  and  he  gets  response. 

It  is  only  for  the  Intelligent  advertif4er  that  advertising  pays!

The  chamber  of  mines  employs 
the  greatest  number  of  Africans 
where  there  ore  over  400,000  worl<- 
lng~  in  the  coal,  diamoud  and  geld 
mines  Recruiting  agents  are  scat- 
tered all  ever  the  country.  Urate- 
tolli,  the  organ  of  the  mines, 
paints  rosy  pictures  of  a  good 
heottlq^  iiul  rich  life.  The  agents 
give  littli^r  to  their  victims,  bam- 
boozle tbenl  into  signing  their 
contracts,  and  take  them  to  the 
depots.  In  some  instances,  the 
country  traders,  work  hand  in 
band,  with  the  recruiters  by  sup- 
plying natives  with  such  valuable 
goods  as  they  cannot  aXford  to 
pay  for.  They  take  their  monies 
from  the  chamber  of  mines  and 
h.-uid  them  over  to  the  agents 
Sometimes  the  Africans  them- 
selves go  to  the  amenta  to  raise 
loans,  which  would  otherwise  be 
impossible  to  obtain  from  any 
other  quarter.  These  are  cheerful- 
ly given  and  the  men  are  sent  to 
the  mines.  Once  inside  the  re 
cruiting  dcpou  they  loge  their 
liberty.  They  are  sent  to  the  reg- 
istration office,  sign  their  con- 
tracts before  the  native  commis- 
sioners, who  are  magistrates  and 
then  receive  their  train  fare  and 
any  other  such  advances  as  are 
necessary.  The  minimum  contract 
term  is  sU  months.  Once  inside 
the  recruiting  depot,  they  are 
kept  under  strict  surveillance.

Again  they  go  to  the  pass  office 
register  themselves  and  are  then 
pn.Hsed  through  a  farcical  medical 
oxaminaxion  and  are  distributed 
to  various  mines.  There  they  are 
cut  off  from  any  Intercourse  with 
their  fellow  men  and  are  housed 
in  concrete  built  compounds  and 
sleep  on  concrete  beds.  Their 
food  is  a  conglomeration  of  rotten 
meat,  unpeeled  potatoes,  turnips, 
cabbage,i,  tomatoes  and  all  other 
unpeeled  vegetables,  which  are 
mixed  together  with  the  meat  and 
give  it  a  black  color.  So  far  as 
food  handling  is  concerned  there 
is  no  '6h!anliness,  but  they  must 
eat  tt^,/ood  or  starve  to  death. 
They  receive  slight  rations  of  far- 
inaceous meal,  old  rice  and  a 
piece  ef  meat  twice  a  week.  No 
miner  is  i^llowcd  to  leave  the 
compound  without  getting  a  spe- 
cial permit  from  the  management. 
"Obnoxious"  Mteratur  is  prohibited. 
They  ,are  not  allowed  to  organize 
into  Lrads  unions.  Brutality  is 
frequent  and  unchecked.  Moat  of 
them  Are  underground  workers. 
When  they  contract  Miner's  Pthis- 
is  they  are  »»pt  to  their  homes 
without  any  compensation.  In 
many  cases  they  are  cbmpelled 
to  renew  their  contracts.  In  this 
maaaer  they,  work  away  without 
any  social  intercourse  and  a  min- 
imum   of    recreation. 

House  ser>-ice  offers  the  second 
largest  field.  Men  and  women  do 
housework.  Cooks  are  men  and 
others  are  engaged  in  doing  house- 
hold work,  such  as  polishing 
floors,  brass,  furniture  and  gener- 
ally Iteeping  the  house  clean. 
Boys  work  In  the  kitchen  deiag 
all  of  the  kitchen  work  and  as- 
sisting the  cooks.  The  preponder- 
ance »f  males  in  this  llae  of  work 
is  counterbalanced  by  the  number 
of  washer-women.  Laundries  are 
not  popular.  Oonaequeotly.  most 
Buropcans  employ  African  girls 
and    women    to    do    their    washing

California  Clubwomen 
ForgetTheirDifferences 


After  two  years  of  dissension, 
the  two  factions  of  the  California 
H'ederated  Clubwomen  a  northern 
Incorporated  group  headed  by 
Mrs.  Tarea  Pillman  und  the  Los 
Angeles  group,  headed  by  Mrs. 
Elisiibelh  liJdwards,  dissolved  their 
difficulties  and  emerged  from  the 
meeting  held  at  Fresno  lust  Sat- 
urday,   a   united   body. 

Prominent  women  from  the  en- 
tire sute  gathered  at  the  A.  M, 
E.  Church  ut  Fresno,  accepting 
the  hospitality  of  Rev.  and  Mrs. 
Washington.  In  a  stormy  session, 
that  threatened  at  any  moment  to 
end  in  confusion  without  the  end 
accomplished,  Mrs.  Eliza  Warner 
(called  affectionately  the  "Mother 
of  the  Federation"^  prevailed  up- 
on   the   women    to   unite. 

The  controversy  revolved  about 
the  legality  of  the  meeting  in  Sun 
Francisco  in  1982  when  conflicting 
calls  by  Mrs.  EMwords,  then  state 
president,  caused  the  majority  of 
the  southern  group  to  refuse  to 
attend.  At  that  meeting  Mrs. 
Chlora  H.  Sledge  of  Oakland  was 
elected  president,  and  the  follow- 
ing year  at  Oakland,  Mra.  Tarea 
Plttrann  was  elevated  to  the  chair. 
Both  of  these  officers  were  re- 
fused recognition  by  the  southern 
body. 

When  the  Los  Angeles  women 
attempted  to  hold  a  meeting  in 
the  name  of  the  Federation,  in- 
junction proceedings  instituted  by 
the  northern  group  prevented,  as 
one  of  the  acts  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco meeting  hod  been  the  incor- 
poration of  the  organization  into 
the  California  State  Federation 
of  Colored  Women's  Clubs,  Incor- 
porated. The  controversy  over  the 
use  of  the  name  was  withdrawn 
before     court     settlement. 

At  the  meeting  in  Frmno,  the 
southern  factien  accepted  the 
ineorp<>rat«en,  lu-knowledged  the 
offlcem  elected  Hince  their  with- 
drawal in  laH'J.  and  nuide  pro- 
vNiun  for  un  equal  rrprrtirntu- 
tion  of  stut«  ofrirrrn  from  their 
w-Hion  when  IIh*  Iwuly  inet-tH  ut 
ItM  annual  ronvrntiun  in  Stock- 
ton   on    .fuly    31. 

Six  post  presidents  were  in  at- 
tendance at  the  valley  meeting. 
They  were  Mesdame.s  Lulu  Siaugh 
ter,  C.  Hicks,  Irene  Ruggles,  Eliz- 
abeth Brown,  Chlora  Sledge  and 
Eliza   Warner. 

Headquarters  of  the  incorporat- 
ed body  will  probably  be  in  Bak- 
ersfield,  a  more  centrally  locoted 
section,  rather  than  Oakland,  it.s 
present  headquarters.

NO  RI<»IEDY  FOR  TYRANNY 

mSCRIMINATION  in  the  avillan  Con- 
"servation  Camp  at  Big  Bar,  California 
is  the  latest  news  to  ire  our  Af  ramerican 
citizenry.  Negro  youths  must  eat  «.t  a 
taUe  separate  from  others  in  the  mess 
hAlL 

■  Por  their  spunk  m  walking  out  to  pro- 
trst  this  rule,  The  Spokesman  has  only 
praise  for  the  young  men  at  Big  Bar. 
"Amt  was  a  tactful  gesture  of  defiance, 
an  indication  that  the  young  Af  ramerican 
will  not  submit  to  official  outrages  with 
the  docility  of  his  predecessors.  Would 
that  all  colored  Americans  were  of  the 
ataoe  stuff! 

What  to  do  about  this  is  a  problem 
rendered  more  insolvable  by  the  official 
practice  of  discrimination  by  the  civil  and 
military  branches  of  the  U.  S.  government. 
•  It  accomplishes  nothing  to  say  that 
this  is  luconstitutional,  or  that  it  is 
contrary  to  the  very  principles  on  which 
this  government  is  founded.  It  is  the  pre- 
regative  of  power  to  abuse  authority,  if 
this  abuse  be  tempered  with  discretion. 
Certainly,  no  one — not  even  the  Aframer- 
ican  himself — has  taken  the  trouble  to 
prove  to  the  powers  that  control  this 
country  how  unwise  it  is  to  abuse  a  weak 
minority. 

Indeed  it  is  somewhat  difficult  to  un- 
derstand the  loyalty  with  which  Aframer- 
icans  regard  a  nation  so  ungrateful  of 
tiidr  loyalty.  How  Negro  veterans,  for 
example,  can  participate  in  all  the  rites 
of-  devotion  to  a  government  which  uses 
Umax  for  cannon-fodder  in  war  and  for 
stable-boys  in  peace  is  not  easily  explain- 
aMcIs  this  an  evidence  of  calloused  sen- 
ribiUties,  blunted  and  dulled  by  long  suf - 
f^iioig?  Is  it  the  zeal  of  patriotism  w^ich, 
l4M>wing  no  other  outlet,  must  necessarily 
find  expression?  Or  is  it  cowardioe,  in- 
■killed  by  the  oppressor's  chtdn-gangf ,  and 
-lyach-mobs? 

Perhaps  no  answer  to  one  or  all  of 
theste  questions  would  completely  explain 
the  Aframerican's  complacent  acceptance 
of  intolerable  humiliations.  It  is  more 
probable  that  he  believes  in  the  necessity 
aad  rightness  of  segregation.  In  fact,  the 
alacrity  and  willingness  with  which  he 
fUi  off  to  himself,  establishes  his  own 
*^rmoe"  institutions,  and  thinks  in  terms 
KfHegro  this"  and  "Negro  that "  are  suf- 
flsient  explanation.  He  has  been  sold  the 
lAsa  of  separation. 

Therefore,  the  task  of  fighting  discrim- 
ination partakes  of  a  dual  nature.  It  con- 
siate  on  the  one  hand  of  convincing  Afra- 
merle&ns  that  every  discriminatory 
thought  and  act,  whether  voluntary  or  im- 
poiied  from  without,  is  ultimately  injur- 
Ibdk,  and  on  the  other  hand,  of  opposing 
those  forms  of  discrimination  which  al- 
exisL  Even  then,  they  will  epdure  as 
as  the  form  of  government  that  per- 
iiaiwites  it.

CHl'RCHES  AS  ART  PATRONS 

TO  DECORATE  the  walls  of  the  First  A. 
M.  K.  Church  in  Oakland  with  frescoes 
{H>rtraying  incidents  in  the  life  of  Jesus, 
the  trustees  of  this  church  have  author- 
ized Sargent  Claude  Johnson,  nationally 
known  sculptor,  OUie  McClelland  and 
George  Watkins,  local  art  students.  Dr. 
Allan  O.  Newman  has  undertaken  the 
responsibility  of  directing  a  program  for 
raising  funds  to  carry  on  this  work. 

To  The  Spokesman,  this  is  the  most 
remarkable  and  meritorious  effort  by  an 
Aframerican  church  in  its  knowledge.  The 
far-seeing  trustees  and  congregation  of 
the  Fii^t  A.  M.  E  Church  deserve  unqual- 
ified community  commendation  and  sup- 
port. 

liow  fitting  that  a  temple  dedicated 
to  the  worship  of  an  all-wise,  all-good, 
all-beautiful  Being  should  be  itself  a  thing 
of  beauty!  That  a  monument  of  gratitude 
to  The  Creator  should  reflect  man's  ca- 
pacity for  creating!  That  religion,  which 
inspires,  should  be  attended  by  art,  which 
elevates ! 

How  just  and  proper,  too,  that  this 
institution  into  which  the  Aframerican 
has  poured  his  energies  and  wealth  should 
now  respond  by  offering  the  opportunity 
for  young  Aframericans  to  enrich  them- 
selves through  self-expression!  Ambition 
and  ability  need  the  nourishment  of  sym- 
pathy and  assistance,  else  they  turn  to 
rot. 

The  trustees  were  wise  too,  in  that 
they  chose  Sargent  Johnson,  an  artist 
whose  posthumous  appreciation  will  far 
exceed  that  which  he  enjoys  today.  Suc- 
leeding  generations  who  gaze  upon  the 
walls  pf  the  First  A.  M.  E.  Church  will 
have  a  grateful  respect  for  the  congrega- 
tion which  approved  this  project 

Let  us  hope  that  the  artists  will  ap- 
[iroacb  other  congregations  in  this  com- 
munity, who  unquestionably  will  welcome 
this  opportunity  of  beautifying  their 
churches.

RACE  AND  PRICES 

PICKETING  for  jobs  has  recently  re- 
*  warded  Aframericans  Tn  two  outstand- 
ing cases.  In  New  York  City,  a  huge  125th 
Street  department  store  opened  with  60 
colored  sales  clerks.  In  Los  Angeles,  en- 
terprising young  Leon  Washington,  pub- 
lisher of  The  Sentinel,  induced  a  Kress 
store  to  place  25  girls  as  clerks.  In  each 
case  the  slogan  of  the  pickets  was  "E>on't 
Buy   Where    You    Can't    Work!" 

Victories  of  this  sort  are  not  won 
without  struggle,  nor  retained  without 
everlasting  vigilance.  After  persuading 
the  employer  to  give  jobs  to  Aframericans 
— in  itself  no  easy  task — there  is  the 
responsibility  of  making  him  satisfied 
with  his  bargain.  He  must  not  have  cause 
for  regretting  his  act. 

If  the  employer  offers  goods  or  ser- 
vices of  unquestionable  quality  and  fair 
price,  it  is  probable  that  his  employ- 
ment of  Negroes  will  receive  a  ready  re- 
sponse from  Negro  patrons.  But  if  his 
competitors  offer  better  or  the  same  goods 
at  lower  prices,  he  may  not  find  tde 
cbaage  advantageous.  Moreover,  if  his 
goods  and  prices  are  right,  he  will  find 
that  the  complexion  of  his  new  personnel 
vfiU  make  very  little  difference  in  the 
weinmc  of  his  patronage  from  white  peo- 
pie 

lo  a  word,  Americans  of  whatever 
colot)  creed  cr  lineage,  are  more  "pricc- 
consdous"  than  "race-conscious."

•        JOHN   HENRY  IN  OPERA 

ROARK  BRADFORD,  we  learn,  is  going 
to  turn  his  saga  of  John  Henry,  Black 
River  giant,  over  to  the  tune-makers  and 
librettists,  who  hope  to  make  the  EHxie 
demigod  walk  through  grapd  opera  like 
F.  natural  man.  John  Henry,  legendary 
hero  of  a  simple  folk,  will  joyously  per- 
form his  herculean  tasks  before  the 
Horseshoe  Qrde  with  only  artificial  sug- 
gestions of  his  Southland. 

When  Mr.  Bradford,  a  white  gentleman 
from  New  Orleans,  first  began  jotting 
down  the  folk  lore,  we  lamented  because 
no  Negro  had  turned  to  the  job.  When 
he  brought  forth  the  volume  "John  Hen- 
ry" our  sorrow  increased  tenfold,  but  we 
t^ulted  in  Mr.  Bradford's  artistry  and 
aithful   portraiture. 

We  hope  that  the  opera  folk  won't 
make  John  Henry  sophisticated.  His

BOtl.UER    DAM 

Assisted  by  the  National  Bar 
Association  and  the  Los  Angeles 
Urban  League,  the  Association 
ha.1  fought  for  three  years  to  end 
discrimination  against  Negro  labor 
by  the  Six  Companies,  Inc.,  erect- 
ing the  $166,000,000  Boulder  Dam 
at  Boulder  City,  Ncv.,  a  govcrn- 
inrnt   project. 

Karly  in  1982.  William  Pickens, 
N  A  A.  C.  P.  field  secretary  fol- 
lowing a  visit  to  the  dam,  dis- 
closed that  of  3,300  workers  em- 
ployed not  one  was  a  Negro;  that 
Negroes  could  not  visit  Boulder 
City,  the  government-owned  work- 
er.^'  reservation;  that  despite  a 
daily  labor  turnover  of  300,  no 
Negro  applications  bad  been  acted 
upon  for  over  two  years;  that  the 
Department  of  Labor  office  at  Laa 
Vegas  whictv  employed  the  Dam 
workers  hired  no  Negroes;  that 
■Negro  ex-service  men  were  re- 
fused   Jobs. 

Secretary  of  Labor  Wilbur  on 
M»y  i,  1932,  promised  a  protesting 
(delegation  representing  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.  and  the  National  Bar 
Association  an  immediate  remedy- 
ing of  the  situation.  DeDspite  an 
additional  (2,000,000  Congressional 
appropriation  for  the  dam  con- 
struction.  Negroes  got   no   jobs. 

Renewed  demands  for  Negro 
employment  were  made  by  a  San 
Francisco  committee  headed  by 
Attorney  Leland  S.  Hawkins,  lo- 
cal N.  A.  A.  G.  P.  Branch  presi- 
dent, upon  W.  A.  Bechtel,  presi- 
dent of  the  Six  Companies,  lac. 
The  Association  then  sent  Floyd 
C.  Covington.  Secretary,  Los  An- 
geles Urban  League,  to  Las  Vegas 
to  investigate  working  and  living 
conditions  for  Negroes.  Thirty 
Negro  workers  were  finally  hired. 
Nevertheless,  by  early  1933,  this 
number  had  dropped  to  11  out  of 
a  total  exceeding  4,000  and,  being 
sUll  barred  from  Boulder  City, 
they  had  to  live  29  miles  away  in 
i^as  Vegas.  When  all  of  the  Negro 
workers  were  fired  a  nsonth  later, 
Secretary  of  the  Interior  Ickes 
instituted  a  special  investigation 
upon  the  insistence  of  the  Asso- 
ciation, substantiating  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.  charges,  but  the  depart- 
inent  held  it  was  without  juris- 
{liction  because  the  Six  Companies' 
contract  did  not  require  hiring  of 
Negro  labor. 

>  Jin  protesting  against  this  atti- 
tude the  Association  held  that  "it 
is  certain  to  set  a  precedent  for 
employment  on  all  public  works 
projects,  with  the  result  that  the 
Negro  worker  will  continue  to  be 
excluded  from  employment  at  the 
whim  of   private  contractors." 

Voting  an  appropriation  of  (50. 
the  San  Fraacisco  branch  sent 
itjs  president.  Hr.  Leland  Hawkins, 
to  make  further  investigation.  His 
report  finished  on  November  2&. 
1933,  substantiated  all  previous  N. 
A.  A.  C.  P  charges.  Only  12  to 
14  Negroes  were  employed  with  a 
total  averaga  daily  wage  of  (M; 
only  two  Negroes  (porters)  were 
permitted  to  live  in  Boulder  City. 
Others  refrained  from  asking  for 
houses  there  for  fear  of  prompt 
discharge  but  the  complete  bar- 
rtag  of  Negroes  from  the  city  was 
atopped.  The  contractors  had  an 
understanding  to  employ  only 
white  workers.  Frank  T.  Crowe, 
general  superintendsnt  of  the  Six 
Companies.  Inc.,  frankly  a  south- 
ern segregationist,  refused  to  hire 
Negroes  save  under  Impossible 
conditions.

The  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  fight  has 
led  to  a  very  alow  opening  up  of 
jobs  for  Negroes  at  Boulder  dam 
despite  the  oppoaitlon  of  the  con- 
tractors and  government's  indif- 
ference. On  April  30.  1934.  there 
were  15  Nogroes  employed  on  the 
dam  with  an  average  total  daily 
payroll  of  only  »61  out  of  a  grand 
total  daily  wage  of  (21.674  The 
Interior  department  has  promised 
to  open  up  Boulder  City  to  Negro 
residents.  The  Federal  Relief  Bu- 
reau has  been  Induced  to  provide 
accommodations  for  colored  trans- 
ients at  Las  Vegas,  Nev  so  that 
black  workers  spplyii^  for  work 
will  have  a  place  (o  stay  until 
th»y  get  jobs. 


niendous  pressure  of  jobleaa 
whites  upon  so-called  Negro  jobs 
rendered  the  economic  status  of 
:he   race   more    precarious. 

The  Association  gave  prompt 
ittcntion  to  reported  discrimina- 
tions in  the  administration  of  re- 
lief. In  New  York,  for  example,  it 
forced  the  closing  of  segregated 
relief  registration  offices  for  col- 
ored women  workers  in  1931,  and 
was  instrumental  In  forcing  dis-; 
continuance  in  Arkansas  of  the 
practice  of  forcing  Negroes  ra- 
cslving  Red  Cross  relief  work  on 
streets  and  plantations.  ...

Repeated  complaints  in  1982  of 
mistreatment  of  Negro  workers  Iti 
work  done  under  direclinn  of  tha 
VV'ur  Department  to  control  thv 
Mississippi  River  flood.-i,  led  the 
Ascsociation  to  send  Miss  HeleS 
'Joardman,  white,  to  make  an  in~ 
vestlgatlon. 

Her  elaborate  and  painstaking 
report  disclosed  that  Negro  work- 
ers on  the  project  were  averag- 
ing only  ten  cents  an  hour,  12 
hours  daily  for  seven  days  weekly 
without  holidays  or  overtime  prfy;' 
that  the  commissary  system  todk 
from  SO  to  75  per  cent  of  tha 
men's  wages  for  food,  water  and 
shelter;  that  they  were  oft^ 
brutally  beaten  and  frequently 
discharged  without  pay  on  the 
slightest  pretext,  and  were  coni-* 
pelled  to  live  and  work  under  the 
most    unsanitary   conditions.  ^ 

The  report  was  sent  to  Preai- 
dent  Hoover,  Secretary  of  Wal* 
Hurley,  Attorney  General  Mitchell^, 
and  to  36  U.  S.  senators  of  liberd 
tendencies,  and  demands  made 
that  the  shameful  conditions  be 
corrected.  The  President  referred 
the  matter  to  the  War  Depart- 
ment which  corresponded  with 
the  Association  for  several  weeks 
and  sought  to  whitewash  the  sit- 
uation. Major  General  Lytlo 
Brown,  then  chief  of  Engineers,  a 
native  Southerner,  while  not  deny- 
ing the  conditions,  excused  them 
on  the  ground  that  they  were 
those  cu.'omary  in  the  Mississippi 
Valley;  that  the  long  hours  were 
necessary  due  to  the  emergency 
c'luracler  of  the  work,  and  that 
the  charges  of  brutality  were  ex- 
aggerated.  He  referred  the  com- 
plaining workers  to  the  Missica- 
ippt  courts.

was  scheduled  for  September  2S,

General  Pillsbury.  Accompaaietl 
by  Walter  Whit:,  Miss  Boardman 
attended  the  hearing,  testifylDg 
in  great  detail,  but  the  next  day 
this  officer  released  a  press  state,- 
ment  declaring  that  she  had  of> 
fered  no  specific  evidence  of  mi*- 
treatment  of  Negro  workers.  This 
.itatemeat  the  Association  prompt- 
ly contradicted  through  the  press, 
charging  an  attempt  by  the  War 
Department  to  whitewash  the  der 
plorable  condition.i. 

The  Assistant  Secretary  of  War 
promised  "to  conduct  a  full,  de- 
tailed and  impartial  investiga- 
tion" through  Major  General 
Urewn,  follnwing  the  Association's 
telegram  to  thn  President  demand-

gation nnd  the  issuance  of  an 
order  retiuiring  payment  of  wages

By  Carter  0.  Woodson,  Editor  of  Negro  HiHt^iry 
One  of  the  first  Americans  to  write  his  naim-  high  in 
the  hall   of  fame  was   Estt'vanico,   or   Little   Stepl.en,   the 
explorer  of  what  is  now  New  Mexico  and  Arizona. 

EJstevanico  was  a  member  of  the  unfortunate  exjHjdi- 
tlon  of  Narvaez  who  undertook  to  get  control  of  the 
country  between  Florida  and  the  Rio  de  las  Palmaa,  in 
Mexico. 

Estevanico  was  born   in   Azamor,   Morocco,    probably 

about     the     year     1500.     He     salled#  — ■ . —

point  out  In  that  it  is  not  the

Megrrgatlng.  For  25  year*  I  have

"(•'or  mysrlf  I  can  see  no  ad- 
vantr-gc  In  thrne  tactics.  Thi.i  is  a 
movcnenl  for  larger  opportunity 
for  an  oppressed  minority.  But 
ultimately  this  opportunity  will  be 
given  by  the  majority.  Why  then, 
make  no  effort  to  enlist  such 
whiles  as  are  in  sympathy  with 
the  minority's  aspirations?  Na- 
turally, the  Negro  wants  to  lead 
his  organization,  but  when  he  gets 
to  v/ork  he  finds  that  he  needs 
white  fi  leads  on  the  bench,  in 
the  Jury  box.  Why  not  educate 
ppople  in  his  ideas?  I  often  won- 
der if  Negroes  have  any  realiza- 
tion of  the  abysmal  Ignorance  of 
white  Americans  regarding  their 
conditions.  Many  splendid  white 
[leople  in  the  United  States  are 
battling  for  the  Jews  in  Germany 
but  are  quite  indifferent,  because 
they  know  nothing  about  it,  to 
Negro-baiting  in  their  home  state. 
"Perhaps  you  think  the  white 
people  arc  not  interested.  I  wish 
you  could  have  seen  the  way  in 
which  the  authors  of  America,  at 
Mr  White's  call,  poured  in  their 
acceptances  to  the  Writers' 
League  against  Lynching.  It 
seemed  as  though  every  writer 
of  account  In  the  country,  north- 
erner and  southerner,  easterner 
and  westerner,  wanted  lo  be  en-

would  never  have  thought  to  come 
together  It  took  the  secretary  of 
the  N  A  A.  C.  P  to  get  this. 
And  there  are  other  Issues  almost 
as  dramatic  as  lynching.  Get  them

first  from  Spain  in  lfl27  along 
with  506  persons.  They  landed  on 
the  coast  of  Florida  and  under- 
took to  explore  the  Interior  of  the 
country. 

They  were  so  frequently  at- 
tacked by  the  Indians  and  suf- 
fered so  many  hardships,  however, 
that  their  number  diminished  to 
240  in  about  three  months;  and 
by  the  end  of  the  year  only  four 
remained.  These  four,  including 
Estevanico,  finally  reached  the 
coast   of  Texas. 

For  eight  years  they  wandered 
among  the  Indians  and  finally 
made  their  lot  easier  by  serving 
the  Aborigines  as  "medicine  men." 
Those  explorers  know  so  much 
more  than  the  Indians  about  sim- 
ple remedies  that  the  red  men 
marvelled  at  their  medical  skill 
and  came  from  afar  in  crowds  to 
becured.  The  Europeans  finally 
returned  to  Spain,  but  Estevanico 
remained  in  Mexico,  where  he 
continued  to  learn  more  and  more 
about  the  Indian  languages  and 
customs. 

Because  of  his  knowledge  of 
these  things  he  was  selected  as 
the  guide  for  the  expedition  north- 
ward   to   "Cibola"   in    1S89. 

Referring  to  the  instructions  of 
Fray  Marcos  to  Estevanico,  Ed- 
ward Channing,  the  historian, 
says,  "He  ordered  him  to  proceed 
in  advance  for  50  or  60  leagues 
and  to  report  the  probability  of 
success  by  sending  back  wooden 
crosses.  If  the  news  which  the 
Negro  gathered  was  of  moderate 
importance  only,  he  was  to  send 
back  a  cross  the  size  of  the  palm 
of  hi.s  hand;  if  the  news  were 
letter,   the   cro.>w   might    be   larger. 

Four  days  later  an  Indian  came 
into  camp  with  a  cross  as  tall  as 
!i  man  With  him  was  another  In- 
•lian,  who  told  the  friar  of  seven 
larRc  cities  with  houses  of  stone 
and  lime,  some  of  them  four 
stories  in  height.  The  portals  of 
the  principal  houses,  he  said,  were 
ornamsjntpd  with  design.'  in  tur- 
quoise. 

In  Jamaica  many  blacks  amblU- 
ous  to  be  free  escaped  lo  the 
south  and  east  sides  of  the  is- 
lands and  established  themselves 
in  strongholds.  At  one  time  they 
held  as  many  as  five  towns.  These 
fugitives  were  later  increased  by 
c-rtain  Coromantees  brought  by 
the  Kngli.sh  from  Africa.  Accus- 
tomed to  war  on  the  coast  of  Af- 
rica, these  natives  readily  joined 
tlie  Maroons  in  their  attack  on 
the    English    planters. 

Their  leader  was  Cudjoe.  whoae 
war  fame  united  under  him  all 
fugitive  Negroes  in  the  various 
settlements. 

Cudjoe  was  a  short  man,  unus- 
ually stout,  with  strong  African 
features  and  a  peculiar  wlldness 
in  his  manner  The  Maroons  as 
a  whole,  however,  were  not  of 
this  type. 

Giving  an  impression  of  them 
Bryan  Edwards  said;  "Such  fine 
persons  are  seldom  beheld  among

wooden  walls  made  of  the  trunks 
of  trees  and  entered  by  huge 
gates.  It  was  provided  with  watcb

In  the  course  of  time  the  popu-

parts  of  rraxii  Palraa'es  then

desirable  features  of  ihc  republi-

The  government  wa.-s  presided 
over  by.tt  chief  executive  called

lute autborlty  during  life  No  one 
could  become  a  candidate  for 
office  unless  he  was  one  of  tho 
bravest  men  of  the  community 
and  had  African  blood  in  his 
veins. 

l/\  the  interest  of  good  order 
the  Zombea  made  laws  imposing 
the  donth  penalty  for  murder, 
adultery,  and  robbery  Slavery  wa.*

was  pISced  on  freedom  All  black.t 
who  *0n  their  freedom  by  suc- 
cessful flights  to  Palmares  re- 
maload  free,  whereas  those  who 
were  captuicd  as  slaves  continued 
a.t    such    in    Palmares. 

The  bl.-vclt  republic,  however. 
wa.i  an  unnatural  growth  iu  Ibc 
eyes  of  the  l»ortugue»e.  It  was 
couisldered  a  resort  for  fugitive 
hiackx  who  were  an  ever-increas- 
ing danger  to  Brazil  In  1698, 
therefore.  Governor  Caetnr.o  dc 
MetUi  of  Prrnambuco  ordered  an 
rxpedltiun  to  proceed  against  the 
cily. 

These  brave  blacks  met  the  in- 
vading forces  und  Indisputably  de- 
feated them.  Returning  some 
years  hiter,  however,  with  an 
army  of  seven  thousand  men  un- 
der the  command  of  a  more  com- 
petent soldier  with  adequate  ar- 
tillery, the  Portuguese  reached 
the  city  after  some  difficulty  and 
placed  It  in  a  state  of  siege. 

The  defense  of  this  city  wan 
heroic  "After  the  Portuguese  had 
breached  the  walls  in  three  plac-

"their  infantry  attacked  In  force 
They  entered  the  city,  hut  had  to 
take  it  foot  by  foot  At  last  the 
defendets  came  to  the  center  of 
Piilmares,  where  a  high  cliff  im- 
peded furilier  retreat  Death  or 
surrender  were  the  only  alterna- 
tives. 

Seeing  that  his  cause  was  loet

You  have  worked  for  America

lofty,  their  walk  firm,  and  their 
persons  erect.  Every  motion  dis- 
plays a  combination  of  strength 
and  agility  The  muscles  (neither 
hidden  nor  dcpresaed  by  clothing) 
are  very  prominent  and  strongly 
marked.  Their  dghl  withal  is  won- 
derfully acute,  and  their  hearing 
remarkably    qwick  " 

It  was  difficult  to  defeat  them, 
for  surpri.tc  and  ambush  were  the 
chief  principles  of  their  warfare 
They   seldom   risked   themselve*   In 


open  battle.  When  under  fire  they  .  Dl 
retreated  among  the  cliffs  and| 
valley*  and  covered  them  with 
traps  and  pit*  to  make  their  con- 
quest by  the  Bagltah  all  but  Im- 
posilble. 

After  year*  of  tuch  conflict  the 
planter*  decided  it  best  In  ITSfl  to 
make  a  treaty  of  peace  with  Cud- 
Joe 

The  greuteet  undertaking  of  the 
Maroons,  however,  was  that  of  the 
little  black  Republic  in  Brasll, 
Palmare*.

much as  its  career  resemble*  *o 
much  that  of  Numantla  agaln*t 
which  the  Roman*  fought  for  a 
number  of  year*  before  they  could 
invade   the   city 

Because  of  the  brave  epirit*  of 
certain  Portuguese  slave*,  many 
o(  those  brought  from  Guinea  e*- 
caped  to  the  foreet*  in  1650.  They 
established  there  villages  called 
quilombos,  the  type  to  which  Pal- 
mare*, In  the  Province  of  Pernam- 
buco,     belonged 

It  was  not  long,  however,  before 
thi*  town  extended  It*  rule  over  li 
number  of  others  settled  by  black* 
o   rthe  wme  kind. 

At  on*  time  It  wa*  reported  to 
have  H   population  of  20  thousand. 


though  a  gruesome  one,  that  they 
uerc  all  put  to  death;  despite  the 
VH.hie  of  their  lal>or  it  was  not 
safe   lo   enslave    these   men. 

Thus  passed  Palmares,  the  black 
Numantla.  most  famous  and  the 
greatest  of  the  Brazilian  qul- 
lombi."

In  Havana  As  he  offered  to  servo 
the  Dutch  against  those  who  had

dreadful  commander  named  Pie

Coming  aboard  the  ship  on

BERKELEY  LEAGUE  IN  TOURNAMENT 

Last  year  we  were  next  to  last  getting  the  $50  forfeit 
money  in  the  hands  of  the  Baseball  Tournament  officials, 
getting  to  the  Tribune  about  5:55.  Monday  was  the  deadline 
this  season  and  the  writer  laid  a  certified  check  of  half  a 
hundred  on  the  desk  of  Ralph  Bell,  one  of  the  officials  at 
5:58,  or  two  minutes  before  the  list  closed.  The  tourney 
opens  tMi  Tuesday  July  31  and  the  Berkeley  Colored  League 
Stars  may  not  play  the  first  night,  but  when  they  do  take 

^  the  field,  it  will  be  a  team  that  has  played  together  before 
and  have  been  practicing  long,  hard  and  often.  With  a 
15-0  win  over  the  S.  F.  Jeffersons  as  the  big  feather  in 
their  hat,  the  Stars  will  probably  take  on  the  strong 
Fowlers  All  Stars  at  Bayview  on  Saturday  afternoon  July 

..  .  21,.  for  one  of  their  practice  games  against  tough  white 
teatrts  and  on  other  than  the  sandy  San  Pablo  diamond. 
The  team  will  also  get  a  chance  lo  become  accustomed  to 
the  fast  Coast  League  field  this  season,  as  the  writer  has 
just  about  fixed  things  up  so  the  teams  can  have  several 
hours  for  practice  on  two  Sunday  afternoons  after  the 
Oaks  finish  their  games.  True,  the  showing  of  the  League 
team  was  nothing  to  write  home  about  last  year,  but  be- 
lieve it  or  not,  much  of  the  poor  defensive  work  by  the 
infield  is  chalked  up  to  the  boys  playing  on  the  slow 
Berkeley  field  and  then  stepping  on  the  fast  grass  diamond, 
where  the  horsehide  increases  speed  when  he  hits  the  grass. 
With  an  opportunity  to  bcome  familiar  with  the  diamond 
and  with  the  hurling  staff  of  Mgar  "Lefty"  Brown,  Ernie 
Elliott,  Orviss  Knowles  and  Dudley  Jones  in  form,  we  hojoe

SAN  JOSE  BOYS  WILL  GET  CARE 

When  the  amateur  boxing  team  leaves  for  Portland 
Sunday,  the  8th,  I  bid  them  adieu  confident  that  the  two 
colored  boys  on  the  squad,  Ekldi*  and  Earl  (Brooks)  Book- 
er, will  get  a  swell  break  from  my  good  friend  Jack 
"Puggy"  Buckley,  who  will  coach  the  team.  Puggy  trained 
Max  Baer  for  over  a  year  and  knows  the  box-fight  racket 
from  sponge  to  resin.  He  is  also  an  admirer  of  young 
colored  boxers  and  spent  time  and  money  developing 
Johnny  Jones  and  Ekldie  Villa.  Here's  luck  boys.

the  two  circuit  leaders,  the  Grays

were  awarded  for  winning  the

After  making  awards  to  the 
wiiiners  in  the  tournament,  Atty. 
HeodersoD      was      presented      with 


k'ame  in  the  100-meter  event.  Met-

jf  10.4  to  equal  the  record  .set  by 
B4die  Tolan  in  "32,  but  finished 
but  a  foot  in  front  of  Owens, 
wWch  mean  Jesse  was  knocking 
at  the  dark-skinned  ToIan"s  mark 
also.  Owens  got  off  fast,  was 
pa.sned  by  Metcalfe  and  then 
closed  up  several  yards  to  finish 
12-inches    behind. 

And  let  me  tell  you,  that  com-

aided    by    poor    fielding. 

Only  the  fact  that  the  Painters 
forced  Rice  to  turn  over  the  resin 
.sack  in  the  2nd,  kept  the  Pels 
from  possibly  finishing  on  the 
long  end  of  tha  score.  Two  hits

maining  even  with  the  favorite. 
Walter  Marty  of  Fresno.  In  the 
sport  pages  of  The  Spokesman.  I 
have  been  watching  closely  the 
results  of  the  lanky  youngster's 
work  on  the  Coast  and  finding 
that  he  had  trouble  trying  to 
clear  the  bar  at  67.  while  the 
white  boy's  average  hovered 
around  6  8.  like  the  rest  T  believed 
Marty   would   win   easily. 

However,  it  was  a  pleasant  sur- 
prise when  Johnson  crawled  over 
the  bar  al  6  feet  8  S-8  inches  to 
tie  Marty  and  set  a  new  world's 
mark  as  well  as  a  new  A.  A.  U. 
record.  The  former  world  height 
was   6  8 '4,   set    by   Harold    Osborne. 

After  taking  the  cenutry  event 
is  such  fast  time.  Metcalfe  did  as 
was  expected  in  the  200-meter 
sprint,  showing  his  heels  to  a 
pair  of  U  .8.  C.  boys,  Foy  Draper 
and  Parsons  in  the  time  of  21.3. 
The  mark  would  have  been  cut 
down,  but  for  the  fact  that  the 
event  was  around  a  turn.  All  in 
all,  it  was  a  great  day  for  the 
Negro  race  and  unless  I  miss  my 
guess,  a  greater  day  Is  dmawning 
for  us  if  Jesse  Owens  continues 
his  great  improvmant.  Do  not  be 
surprised  readers,  if  he  does  bold 
both  sprint  and  broadjump  cham- 
pionships before  he  graduates 
from    Ohio.

BAU.   FANS   ENTERTAINED 
BY    HOT    RHYTHM    SUNDAY 

Although  the  first  game  Sunday 
was  forfeited  9  to  0  by  the  Elks 
to  the  Grays  last  Sunday,  the  fans 
did  not  much  mind,  owing  to  the 
fact  that  they  were  entertained 
by  red  hot  music  over  the  elec- 
tric broadcasting  system.  Popular 
fecords  of  suoh  eepia  celebs  as 
Rllington,  Calloway,  MilU  Broth- 
ers and  Louie  Armstrong  were 
played. 

The  winners  of  the  Acorn  Qub 
track  meet  staged  Saturday  were 
to  be  the  honored  guests  along 
with  Charley  Tye,  but  as  the 
Irackslcrs"  medals  did  not  arrive 
until  this  week,  they  will  be  pre- 
sented nost  Sunday.  The  broad- 
cast oystem  was  not  only  an  at- 
traction to  the  Colorgd  loop  fsn.s, 
but  also  entertained  those  on  the 
opposite  diamond.

BARGAIN 


for  intelligent,  thrifty  advertisers! 


EFKECTI\E  June  12,  19.T4,  The  Spokesman  rates  for  advertising 
provide    extraordinarily    liberal    quantity    and    time    discounts. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  special  regard  for  the 
intelligent   and    thrifty   advertiser,    who   desires   the    greatest    reader 
reHiK>n*c  at  the  least  cost. 

Though  prepared  primarily  for  merchants,  included  also  arc 
marked  reductions  in  CHURCH.  FRATERNAL,  ORGANIZATION 
and  CLASSIFIED  rates.) 

THRIFTY  ADVERTISERS  are  not  deceived  by  spurious  circu- 
latidii  figures.  They  know  that  quality  of  circulation  is  more  im- 
portinit  than  quantity;  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  is 
rewarded  will  dei>end  on  thrtc  things: 

1  The  readers  buying  jjower. 

2.  The  reader's  confidence  in  Uie  newspaper  containing  the  adver- 
tiser's message; 

3  The  cost  of  advertising. 

BUYING  rOWF^R  of  Aframericans,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  di.>^coveped.  is  commensurate  to  that  of  other  Americans. 
Even  in  the  imjitnerished  Southland,  the  United  Stales  Census  Bureau 
compiled  in  15>;iO  the  following  significant  information:

THIS  NEWSPAPER,  because  of  its  dependence  in  large  measure 
on  revenue  obtained  from  circulation,  is  able  to  offer  the  advertiser 
rates  far  below  those  generally  set  for  the  opportunity  of  addressing 
this  type  of  market.

INTELLIGENT    ADVERTISERS    do    not    expect    a    newspaper    to 
guarantee  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 
or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  depend  on  two  things: 

l.The  resjxjnsivencss  of  those  readers. 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  thing  advertised. 

READER  RESPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  is  a 
condition  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  dei)end  on  two  things: 

1.  The  VALUE:S  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  melhixi  by  which  the  thing  for  sale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspajicr  can  help  the  advertiser  address  its  readers 
in  an  effective  message.  But  no  newspaper  can  put  value  into  a  product 
if  its  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  gain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECTIVE  ADVERTISING  METHODS, 
distinguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
customer  may  be  deceived  once,  or  perhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finally  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  will 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelligent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  ai 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  repetition,  of  "telling  e 
often  and  telling  'em  all."  He  knows  that  a  large  amount  of  space  ia 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecutive  messages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  ...  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simplicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  He 
prepares  his  copy  accordingly  .  .  .  and  he  gets  response. 

It  is  only  for  the  intelligent  ad\ertiser  that  advertisiDg  p«>^!

Negro  Mother  Still

"Where  is  another  Abraham  Lincoln  to  free  the  en- 
slaved Negro  mother  of  today?  In  ignorance  she  brings 
forth  her  children  and  is  easlaved  as  the  black  race  was 
never  before  enslaved.  Wasted  lives  of  women— tortured 
and  broken  in  child-bearing.  Twelve  children  born— three 
alive.  Or  20  pregnancies  and  five  children  to  show  for  the

Though  over  two  generations 
have  passed  since  the  time  that 
law  wa.s  enacted,  Mrs.  Sanger  de- 
lares  that  women  have  gaineo 
suffrage;  that  colleges  and  uni- 
versities teach  biolosical  ficts  ol 
life  ti  students;  that  social  hygenc 
is  purl  of  our  educational  pro- 
gram; yet,  nothing  has  been  done 
by  clubs,  colleges  or  medical  so- 
cieties to  take  a  dignified  stand 
on  cleaning  up  these  archaic  laws. 
It  was  as  a  phallenge  to  these 
laws  that  the  birth  control  move- 
.lent  arose,  and  it  is  to  amend 
these  laws  that  the  National 
Committee  on  Federal  Legislation 
for   Birth   Control    is    organized. 

The  ehsenthil  fwts  of  birth 
rantrol  are,  flrttt,  that  It  is  pre- 
vention of  conception,  not  int<>r- 
ruption  of  pregnancy  after  con- 
ception han  taken  place;  sec- 
ondly, that  it  is  control,  not  ne- 
cesharily  limitation.  To  control 
tlie  birth  rate  is  to  control  the 
slw  of  the  family.  It  means  the 
npaclng  of  birth.t  in  the  family

By   BesHie   Mock 

Three  cheers  for  Dr.  Joseph  D.  Ambrose  who  has 
given  to  the  women  of  this  countrj'  the  antidote  for  social 
unattractiveness. 

There  was  a  time  when  a  pretty  face  and  a  well 
chosen  wardrobe  constituted  the  total  requisites  for  social 
success,  and  still  another  time  when  the  brainy  miss  was 
in  constant  demlmd.  But  since  Madame  C.  J.  Walker,  Max 
Factor,  Anthony  Overton  and  others  have  flooded  the  mar- 
ket    with     pretty     faces,     and     the^ ^-

hard  to  make  the  evening  one  of

'•f  brainy  females  within  the  last 
lew  years,  ihe  woman  without 
beauty  anil  brains  is  now  the  ex- 
ception  rather   than   the   rule. 

Dr.  Ambrose  states  that  it  takes 
Ijcrspnalitj  the  pleasing  kind  to 
make  a  v.'oman  attractive  and 
popular  these  days.  He  defines 
personality  as  being  "a  group  ot 
traits  or  characteristics  which  cov- 
ers a  multitude  of  graces  and 
makes  on.'  person  distinct  from 
all  others  It  Is  not  elusive  but 
can  be  captured  by  anyone  who 
takes    the    trouble    to    give    chase." 

A  hint  to  the  wise  is  usually 
sufficient  The  unpupiilar  girl  will 
do  well  to  remember  that  those 
who  stand  out  from  the  crowd 
were  not  horn  that  way.  They 
attained      their     coveted      positions 


popularity 
I  through  pCLsonality  and  'aiiived" 
agree  to  a  man  that  the  result 
is  worth  the  effort  Investment  in 
personality  pays  large  dividends 
and  .self-eonscious  m  lidens  will 
have  made  a  great  step  forward 
when  tiny  stop  wondering  if  they 
arc  going  to  plea.se  picjpli-  and 
begin  wondering  if  peo|ile  are  go- 
ing to  please  Ihem  If  Ihcy  look 
al  the  situation  from  this  angle 
they  may  soon  find  that  the  path 
to  swial  Mttrartivenc.ss  Is  relative-

INDEPKNDENCC  l)AV  RECEIVES 

—SEVERE     BLOW     TO     HEART! 

THE  15Sth  anniversary  of  the  ifidepen- 
'  dencc  of  this  nation  must  have  been 
disappointed  in  its  reception  by  the  Amer- 
ican people.  July  4,  1776,  the  saner  and 
Letter  elements  of  this  people  erected  the 
world's  greatest  monument  to  political 
radicalism.  July  4,  1934,  the  "saner"  and 
"better"  elements  of  this  people  launched 
a  stupid  crusade  against  iwlitical  radical- 
ism. 

This  bigot-inspired  attack  on  political 
reform  is  repugnant  to  the  traditional 
ideals  of  American  government.  Starvatioii 
v.'ages  and  long  working  hours  are  much 
harsher  forms  of  tyranny  than  were  the 
Colonial  Stamp  Acts.  Yet,  let  no  one  for- 
get that  it  was  rebellion  against  those 
Acts  which  led  to  the  founding  of  the 
United  States  of  America. 

This  rebellion  and  its  product  symbol- 
ize the  principle  and  recurring  necessity  of 
SOCIAL  CHANGE.  So  important  did  this 
principle  and  necessity  seem  to  the  Fath- 
ers of  the  Republic,  that  they  ensured  its 
place  in  the  American  scheme  of  things  by 
a  Cofistitutional  provision,  describing  a 
method  for  amending  the  form  and  pro- 
cedure of  government. 

•       •       •       •       * 

Doctrinaires  attempt  to  justify  the 
present  crusade  agaitist  "radicals"  with 
the  specious  argument  that  agitators  seek 
to  undermine  the  Constitution.  They  exag- 
gerate the  impcrtar.ce  of  the  method  of 
social  change  designed  by  the  Fathers, 
which  actually  amounts  to  a  repudiation 
of  the  principle.  • 


Indeed,  it  is  not  irreverent  to  asccrt 
that  thouc  55  patriots — nut  one  ct  whom 
was  a  small  fari:;<.i,  \.ai;e-caiiier,  i,i 
Irontiersnian — ^\•ho  c;;i.cciveu  the  su{>rejiiC 
law  of  our  land,  may  have  f;.ilcd  in  the 
finitcnesa  c  f  their  wisdom  to  foi-csce  the 
profound  inecoiicihibility  of  democratic 
ideals  and  capitahstic  institutions.  Nor  is 
it  lantastic  to  hnagine  them  regictiul  of 
this  failure,  could  they  but  see  how  much 
confusion  and  misery  it  has  caused.  Most 
probably,  if  they  had  the  job  to  do  again, 
lliey  would  take  care  to  name  more  feasi- 
ble and  flexible  methods  of  ensuring  so- 
cial change  a  place  in  the  destiny  of  this 
country. 

For  whether  or.  not  its  channel  is  al- 
ready designed,  this  change  will  come.  In 
the  natuie  of  things,  institutions  of  today 
cannot  satisfy  the  needs  of  tomorrow's 
generations.  This,  the  sanest  and  best 
elements  of  the  American  people  realize. 
They  know  that  the  Communist  Party's 
program  for  a  workers'  government  is  no 
more  subversive  of  established  political 
institutions  today  than  was  the  cry  cf 
"No  taxation  without  representation"  in 
the  1770's.  They  know  that  radicalism, 
which  prevents  the  ossification  of  agencies 
that  ought  to  remain  perfectly  attuned  to 
hunmn  needs,  is  indispensable  to  the  per- 
petuation of  democratic  institutions. 

Finally,  these  sanest  and  best  Ameri- 
cans know  that  attempts  to  suppress  radi- 
calism are  more  dangerous  than  the  "radi- 
cals" themselves.  Oppressive  measures 
may  drive  discontented  persons  to  cover, 
but  they  will  not  end  discontent.  For  this, 
something  drastic  is  needed,  something 
which  the  words  of  Thomas  Paine  sug- 
gest: 

"Ulien  it  shall  be  said  in  any  coun- 
try in  the  world,  'My  poor  are  happy; 
neither  ignonince  nor  distress  is  to  be 
found  among  them;  my  jails  arc  empty 
of  pritioncrs,  my  streets  of  beggars;  the 
aged  are  not  in  want,  the  taxes  are  not 
oppressive;  tlie  rational  world  is  my 
friend,  because  I  am  a  friend  of  its 
happinetis' — when  these  things  can  be 
said,  then  may  that  country  boast  of  its 
constitotion  and  its  government."

WHITE  CAUS  <N0 
QUARTER'  IN  FIGHT 


OKLAHOMA  CITY,  July  1.— 
Calllne  for  an  "uneodlug"  warfare 
upon  segregation  In  all  its  forms 
and  particularly  upon  lynchinc. 
Walter  While,  secretary  of  the 
National  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored  People, 
closed  the  25th  annual  conference 
here  today  with  a  fighting  speech. 
Paying  his  respects  to  segrega- 
tion in  sharp  language,  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.   P.   secretary  said: 

"Because  segregation  baaed  upon 
race  and  color  makes  easy  and 
permanent  discriminations  in  pub- 
lic education,  health  services, 
street  paving,  fire  and  police  pro- 
tection, public  recreation,  employ- 
ment and  other  vital  phases  of 
Hfe,  Negroes  arc  unalterably  op- 
l>oscd  to  segregation,  even  in  sec- 
tions of  the  country  where  they 
realize  it  may  lake  a  Jong  time  to 
eradicate  the  cvtl.  Bui  no  matter 
how  hard  the  road  or  distant  the 
goal,  we  must  and  will  fight  to- 
ward that  objective  without  let-up. 
Really  Intelligent  white  Americans 
will    Join    in    that    fight 

Formal  announcement  that  the 
fight  for  the  passage  of  the  anti- 
lynching  bill  would  be  continued 
In  the  next  congress  and  presaed 
without  p8u.se  was  made  by  the 
N  A.  A.  C.  P.  executive  as  he 
cited  eight  lynchings  of  1634,  six 
of  which  he  declared  were  staged 
alter  It  became  fairly  clear  that 
congress  was  going  to  sidetrack 
the    Costlgau-Wagner    bill. 

CItixcns  were  admonished  to 
use  their  vote  ns  weapons  for 
justice,  both  In  the  case  of  candi- 
dates In  the  fall  election  and  on 
all  issues  affcUng  the  welfare  of 
the  race.  Mr.  White  urged  all  can- 
didates be  forced  to  maiie  known 
their  stand  In  writing  on  the  antl- 
lynching    bill. 

Uelegates  were  urged  to  return 
to  their  home  communities  and 
keep  alert  on  the  working*  of  the 
NRA.  the  AAA,  the  PWA,  and 
other  New  Deal  devices.  They 
were  told  first  to  get  the  fact* 
on  discrimination  and  then  to 
"protest  morning,  noon  and  night" 
to    thoae     In     authority.    Sounding

IN  DEMO.  ELECrriON 

DALX.AS,  Tex.— The  question  of 
voting  rights  in  Democratic  pri- 
maries came  to  light  once  more 
last  Monday,  when  the  local  coun- 
ty committee,  along  with  many 
others  throughout  the  state,  failed 
to  act  on  a  request  that  election 
judges  be  instructed  to  permit  full 
voting  privileges  in  the  state  prl- 
i:iary,   t3  b?  held   July  28. 

A  few  weeks  before,  a  similnr 
request  hnd  been  made  of  the 
state  committee,  which  ha*  failed 
to  take  action  on  the  matter. 

Since  the  decision  of  the  United 
States  Supreme  Court  in  the  Nix- 
I  on  case,  in  which  it  was  ruled 
that  election  judges  who  prevent 
citizens  from  exercising  their  right 
of  suffrage  arc  personally  liable 
for  damages,  there  has  been  a 
somewhat  greater  tendency  to- 
ward   liberalism.

MOSLEM   RULERS 

FETED    BY    KINO 

LONDON— The  arrival  of  three 
of  the  moat  Influential  native 
rulers  uf  Northern  Nigeria,  In 
I^ondon  last  week,  has  brought 
forth  conjectures  whether  or  not 
King  George  Invited  them  here  foi 
a  little  flattery  In  order  to  main- 
tain their  loyalty  In  case  of  an- 
other   war. 

TTicse  ruling  princes  or  emirs, 
ns  Mohammedan  rulers  are  called 
are:  Sarkln  Musulmi.  sultan  ot 
Sokoto;  Usumanu,  emir  of  Gwan- 
du,  and  Abdullah  Bayaro,  emir  of 
Kano. 

During  their  stay  in  England 
they  will  be  the  guests  of  the 
British  government  and  will  be 
presented  to  the  King  at  Bucking- 
ham Palace.  The  three  rule  over 
a  territory  of  276,034  miles,  with  a 
population  of  more  than  10,000,000.. 


for  much  that  has  been  ailing 
them  In  Georgia.  In  certain  in- 
stances there  ha*  been  flagrant 
failure  to  proceed  in  harmony 
with  the  Federal  Codes  in  the 
matter  of   wages   paid   to   laborers. 

There  is  Bibb  County  for  In- 
stance, of  which  Macon  Is  the 
county  aeat.  The  population  of 
Bibb  County  in  approximately  77,- 
000  yot  the  total  of  persons  on 
the   emergency   relief   list   is   19.209. 

Of  the  persons  on  the  relief 
rolls.  13,487  are  Negroes  and  5,773 
are  whites.  The  amount  paid  for 
relief  Is  }4.25  per  month  each,  or 
less  than  15  cents  per  day.  Condi- 
tions arc  so  bad  that,  many  of  the 
needy  arc  In  a  state  of  scmi- 
starvatlon. 

Mrs.  Francis  Hatton  in  charge 
of  charity  agencies  operating  in 
Macon  said  this  week  that  the 
facts  as  revealed  by  an  Investiga- 
tion show  that  starvation  Is  at 
hand  for  many  thousands.  This 
statement  she  said  constitutes  a 
'sad  and  sordid  story  which  is

•KOfUiOrrKN   MAN"   IS  KUMKMBKKED 

Usually  when  a  b»g  movement  is  on  foot  or  complete^ 
or  some  mamnioih  aftfiir  is  staged,  there  is  some  person 
or  perfeons  who  really  ai-&  50  per  cent  of  the  driving  power 
bcJ^ind  the  same,  but  who  very  seldom  receives  the  credit 
duo  him.  Coming  under  that  cat*igoiy  is  none  other  thaa 
m.'.'    riffht    hand    man    in    the    Berkeley    Colored    League.^ 
Samuel  Pierce.  "Sam,"  as  he  is  called  by  the  boys,  has  bceii' 
out  of  tx)wn  for  a  couple  of  months  almost  now,  and  he  may 
not  even  be  missed  by  many,  but  to  me,  he  is  the  "Forgot-' 
ten  Man'*  of  the  ball  circuit.   Since  organizing  the   league 
seven  years  ago,  the  writer  has  been  cussed,  discussed,  re- 
cussed,   bawled   out,    bawled   up  and   bawled   down,    and   I 
■  doubt  if  anyone  except  some  of  those   in   the   League   are 
aware  of  the  trials  and  tribulations  and  un^preciative  at- 
titude the  writer  has  hurdled  during  that  time  to  keep  the 
^■^  _organization  m.oving  anfl  to  furnish  the  Bay  regions  fans 
-  "with  Siniday  amusement.   Many  times  I   have  been   asKedi 
-•'3s>it  worth  it?*'  Often  times,  the  answer  is  emphatically, 

., iTio,"  but  with  Sam  Pierce  at  my  side  through  good,  bad 

.,and  indifferent  and  both  jwor  and  excellent  financial  con- 
ditions, the  load-  has  been  much  easier. 

Many  do  not  appreciate  the  time  and  unselfish  attitude 
the   "Fergotten   Man"   puts    in    the    League,    but    get    this 
I    straight   from   the  shoulder,    "There   is   no   one    man   who ! 
'    could  fill  the  Financial  Secretary-Treasurer  posts  and  his  | 
'    official  capacity  on  the  diamond,  better,  if  as  good,  as  Sam  I 
>    Pierce."  Without  a  doubt,  there  are  many  who  are  under 
.    the  impression  that  there  is  no  responsibility  attached  to 
',    8uper\nsing  the  organization  and-  keeping  harmony  an^mg 
!    some  75  men  and  young  men,  but  just  try  it. 
',  Hardly  a  week  passes  that  there  is  not  some  sort  df  a 

dispute  to  settle  and  unfortunately,  there  is  a  shade  of  fcad 
sportsmanship  at  times,  that  makes  tl.'j  loser  of  a  dccjbion ; 
handed  down,  feel  that  he  has  been  wronged.  I'll  say  that' 
the   majority   of   the   times,    however,    the    boys   take   the  I 
Chair's  verdict  Hke  men  and  the  incident  is  past.  Coming 
back  to  Sam  Pierce,   any  person  leading  an   organization 
knows  what  it  means  to  have  an  assistant  who  will   take 
orders  and  execute  them  as  good   as   you   could   youi4aIf. 
The  president. of  the  Berkeley  League  is  fortunate  to  j^^ 
just  that  in   the   "Forgotten   Man."

The  Berkeley  Elka,  first  have 
chantps  of  the  Berkeley  Colored 
lyeague,  have  been  forced  to  for- 
feit several  games  on  account  of 
^lajers  working  out  of  town  or 
Illness,  but  manager  Gene  Richard 
la  quoted  as  saying  last  Sunday, 
"The  Elks  are  not  intentionally 
forfiting  g.imcs  just  because  they 
won  the  first  half.  Lack  ol  play- 
ers is  the  reason,  but  Sunday  we 
will  have  a  full  squad  and  just 
watch  us  take  th  starch  out  of 
the  first  place  Painters. "  And  so, 
as  the  ex-Pullmanites  are  aware 
of  this  fael.  Kan  Pablo  Park  fans 
are  assured  oi  a  hard  fought  tus- 
sle in  the  feature  2  P.  M.  game, 
with  the  veteran  Rd  Smith  or 
Brnie  Blliott,  hurling  against  Jess 
HiUs. 

The  early  tilt  will  find  the 
Grays  attempting  to  snap  out  oT  a 
slump  with  the  Pelicans  as  oppo- 
slcion.  Tom  Angle,  leader  of  the 
Pais  claims  bis  proteges  do  not 
iB<end  to  drop  another  game  dur- 
ia(  the  rest  of  the  season,  so 
maybe  the  Grays  will  again  finish 
•eoond  best  If  their  aoe  chuckar, 
Dudley  Jones,  received  in  a  trade 
from  the  Pelicans  for  Meaddowa, 
Is  on  hand,  Oubre's  crew  have  a 
chanee.  Here's  hoping  Dudley 
takes  a  turn  on  the  bill,  for  he  is 
one  of  the  chuckers  expected  to 
dA  big  things  fur  the  League's  All 
Star  leaiB  in  the  Tournasisnl  that 
becins   Jtrijr  SI.

Cecil  Thompson  of  Oakland, 
better  known  as  Young  Jack 
Thonipson,  ex-wdtesweight  champ 
of  the  world,  is  now  boxing  in- 
structor at  the  28th  Street  Branch 
Y.    M.    C.    A     in    Los    Angeles    and

stand  for  the  courts  being  ll«4  up 
by  any  tournament.  For  the  past 
several  years  the  I.,os  Angeles 
board  has  made  some  excu«f  pr 
other,  the  clubs  being  forced  to 
stage  their  tournaments  fMfes 
away  from  the  city,  bein^ !  held 
either  at  Pasadena  or  Santa  Mon- 
ica. The  W  F  T.  C  is  a  branch 
of  the  National  Federation  a'hd 
expected  to  bold  their  tourney loa 
July  21  and  22  ..;o  a«  to  send  Vv'ff^-

'  Evidently  the  North  is  stilfi^^p 
North  and  the  !kiuth  remains  the 
.Stouth.  t.ir  both  Oakland  and

allow  the  use  of  their  courts  to

Three  thousand  enthusiastic 
fans  saw  the  r>etroil  Giants, 
crack  baseball  outfit  which  is 
touring  the  west,  dereat  the  Ala- 
meda Elks.  East  bay  semi-pro 
champs,  I'liosday  night  under  the 
arclights  at  the  Coast  League 
Park,  by  a  score  of  5  lo  4. 

'Ihe  ijnme  was  won  in  the 
seventh  inning  when  the  Giants 
went  on  a  batting  spree  to  score 
three  runs.  A  triple  lo  renter  by 
Lorenzo  curved  out  of  the  reach 
of  Vincent  Welsh,  who  fell  flat 
trying  to  retrieve  It,  lo  feature 
the   rally. 

The  work  of  "King  Kong"  Bill 
Smith,  the  six  foot  six  inch  De- 
troit Giant,  was  one  of  the  high- 
lights of  the  game.  His  four  trips 
lo  the  platter  resulted  in  two  re-  1 
sounding  doubles  and  two  strike- 
oiils. 

A    threatened    rally    by    the    Elks 
in     the     ninth     was     nipped     short 
when    Ihe   Giants   staged   a   siiMppjf  f

BARGAIN  RATES 

for   intelligent;  thrifty  advertisers! 


EKFECTlVt:  June  12,  1934.  The  Sijokesmaii  rates  for  advertising 
jiruvide  o-xlrdordinarily  liU-ral  quantity  and  time  discounts. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  sjjecial  regard  for  the 
intelligent  and  thrifty  advertiser,  who  desires  the  greatest  reader 
res|>onse  at  the  lea.>»t  eo*.t. 

Though  prejwrid  priniahly  for  nurthant.s.  im  hided  also  are 
marked  reductions  in  CHUHCH,  FUATERNAL,  OUGAMZATION. 
and  CL.\SSIF'IED  rates.) 

THRIFTY   AD\ERTISER.S  are   not  deceived   by  spurious   circu- 
lation   figures.   They    know    that    quality   of   circulation    is    more    im- 
portant than  quantity;  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  is 
^  rewarded  will  depend  on  three  thing.s: 

1 .  The  rwider's  btning  power. 

2.  The  reader's  eiuifideiue  in  the  iiew8i>apcr  eoiil.iiiiing   the  adver- 
tiser's message. 

3.  The  cost  of  advertising.  '  » 

BUYING  I'OWER  of  Afraniericaiis,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  discovered,  i.s  comminsiirate  to  that  of  nther  Americans. 
Even  in  the  inij»overished  Southland,  the  United  States  Census  Bureau 
compiled  in  1930  the  following  significant  information:

THIS  NEWSPAPER,  because  of  its  dependence  in  large  measure 
on  revenue  obtained  from  circulation,  is  able  to  offer  the  advertiser 
rales  far  below  those  generally  set  for  the  opportunity  of  addressing 
this  type  of  market.

INTELLIGENT    ADVERTISERS    do    not    expect    a    ncwspajwr    to 
guarant4>e  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 
or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  dejiend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  responsiveness  of  those  readers. 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  tiling  advertised. 

READER  RESPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  in  a 
condition  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  dejKnd  on  two  things: 

1.  The  VALUED  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  method  by  which  the  thing  for  sale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspaper  can  help  the  advertiser  address  ita  readers 
in  an  effective  message.  But  no  newspaper  can  put  value  into  a  product 
if  its  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  gain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECTIVE  ADVERTISING  METHODS, 
distinguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
rustomcr  may  be  deceived  once,  or  jx^rhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finally  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  will 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelligent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  an 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  repetition,  of  "teUing  'em 
often  and  telling  'cm  all."  He  knows  that  a  largrf  amount  of  space  is 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecutive  messages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  ...  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simplicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  Ho 
pre[)ares  his  copy  accordingly  .  .  .  and  he  gets  response. 

It  is  only  for  the  intelligent  advertiiier  that  advfiriising  pays!

prcciative  inidience  this  group  of

Those  who  know  the  Imzarda  of 
church  financing  can  readily  sec 
why  Mr.  Goodwin's  plan  goes  over 
so  well.  Mr.  Goodwin  knows  how 
to  delientely  deal  with  the  host  of 
the  Lord,  as  his  whole  scheme  is 
wrapped  up  in  a  sort  of  a  Chri.st- 
mas  pncliage  vocabulary  which 
promises  the  church  two  per  cent 
of  all  profit  flora  sales  made  by 
its    members. 

"Here  is  the  real  tragcily  that 
the  church  has  trcucherou.ily  over- 
stepped itself  financially  and  has 
in  consequence  sold  itself  to  the 
world,  nnd  the  flesh,  and  the 
bank  V  Tnit  of  this  tr.-tgedy  hns 
i  been  due  to  a  sincere  and  noljle 
effort  to  keep  pace  with  the  times. 
nnd  rqiiipmeut  and  plant  which 
wouUI  enable  the  church  to  serve 
the  community.  An  equal  part  of 
it,  however  has  been  due  to  nn 
unhealthy  itch  for  opulence,  n 
decision  to  build  churches  con- 
spicuously better  than  the  com- 
munity can  afford.  By  n  worship 
of  what  WUIlam  James  called  the 
"bitch  goddess,"  success,  nnd  by 
much  poor  business  judgment,  the 
church  hns  got  Itself  so  hopele.<isly 
enmeshed  in  our  present  society 
that  it  nr.nsl  lu'ccpt  the  methods 
of  that  society  to  save  Itself  from 
institutional  ruin.  As  a  business 
organization,  the  church  has  suf- 
fered the  usual  disorders  of  bus- 
iness  undertaking*. 

The  odd  part  of  It  Is  that  the 
church.  In  spjte  of  these  burdens 
and  h>rR<T!r>»ti«  must  fulfill  an  eth- 
ical purpose  In  society.  Yet  it  has 
not  learned  to  think  In  social 
terms  The  church  somehow  finds 
it  easier  to  save  labels  than  to

TllE  CKUSADE   AGAINST   IlLTH 

CHURCH'S  drive  against  filth  in 
motion  pictures  is  already  doomed.  For 
H  time,  ccnaorsliip  may  become  more 
otringent — may  force  producers  to  bring 
-orth  a  few  worthwhile  pictures.  But  just 
as  water  seeks  its  level,  so  gravitates 
i>rof it-inspired  art  tc  the  public  taste. 

This  is  sajing  that  the  public  craves 
Tilth.    Which   is   true! 

To  cite  examples  from  our  own  ex- 
I>eriencc,  and  recent  examples  too,  how 
nmny  people  throng  those  "minstrel" 
:Hhow8  given  to  aid  our  impoverished  in- 
stitutions, where  obscene  jokes  and  bodily 
contortions  offer  the  only  digressions  from 
dM  singing  and  tedious  dialogue"? 

•^  dompare  this  number  with  those  who 
attend  a  lecture  en  art,  or  a  serious 
dramatic  effort,  or  a  song  recital.  To  be 
specific,  how  many  people  do  you  know 
who  attended  the  lecture  of  Lucien  La- 
'-'HW.dt  at  the  Cosmos  Club  on  the  night 
cf  ^j^ly  3:  or  the  Delta  Plays  at  Cooper 
A  M;  E.  Zion  Church  last  Monday  night; 
or  Kenneth  Spencer's  recital  at  the  Greek 
Theater  last  Sunday? 

Here  vi'ere  three  serious,  worthwhile 
efforts  to  give  the  public  entertainment. 
Why  then,  if  the  public  prefers  this  sort 


<'I    tiling,    wwv    these    three    affairs    not 
ovaiwhcbijipgly    attended? 
You  figure  it  out!

TOU  AllM  A  UECONCIUATION 

SO  NO  MOKE  NLGROES  are  being  hired 
as  HtriUe-biialicis  iu  Sun  I'Yiincisco ! 
1  his  i5<  old  atiiff.  Once  the  leol  has  served 
ita  pupix)se.  it  is  discarded.  Negroes  have 
Ijeen  the  bludgeons  if  capital  since  the 
fust  slnves  were  landed  on  American  soil. 
They  have  tx^-Mi  used  always  to  beat  down 
worlvcrs,  after  which  they  have,  boon 
losiicd  asHlc,  promptly  and  unceremoni- 
ouslj'. 

Neither  the  workers  nor  the  Negro 
:  trike-brcakera  can  see  tliis.  The  workers 
mistake  the  tool  for  the  hand  that  guides 
it.  The  tool  la  ever  willing  to  be  guided 
for  a  day,  no  mattei-  if  relegated  to  the 
lub'jiFh  heap  for  a  century.  The  workers 
."ttiick  tlic  tool;  the  tool  responds  by 
Ix-atlng   the  workers. 

How  may  tool  and  worker  ever  be- 
come reconciled? 

This  Sail  Francisco  strike  ought  to  be 
a  lesson  for  all  time.  Union  labor's  great- 
est enemy  is  not  the  strike-breaker,  but 
the  employer  who  uses  the  strike-breaker 
to  defeat  it.  The  strike-breaker's  greatest 
enemy  is  not  union  labor,  but  the  employer 
who  uses  him  as  a  tool  against  his  class. 

Now  is  the  time  to  effect  this  reconcili- 
atioi). 

Let  the  unions — in  every  art  and  in- 
dustry— open  their  doors  to  Negro  mem- 
bership, unequivocably  and  with  a  guaran- 
tee ot  protection  against  discrimination. 
Let  the  Negro  workers  enter  these  doors, 
tearlessly  and  with  the  determination  to 
fight  for  all  the  rights  of  American 
workers. 

Bring  en  the  general  strike!

more,  side  from  hU  physical  cour- 
age,  which  no  one  could  deny 
from  his  ring  records,  and  other

Hhowed  the  daring  which  is  part 
of  his  make-up  an  Wednesday 
of  last  week  when  he  defied  the

"I  am  not  afraid."  Johnson  said,  Mol<amui  That  the  affair  will  be 
and  by  the  expression  on  his  face,  '  the  usual  success,  is  the  fact  that

knew  that  he   was   not   fooling.

Modern     government 


asserted  that  the  segregation  ar- 
gument was  not  the  main  reason 
for  my  wishing  to  leave  this  or- 
ganization. Tt  was  an  occasion 
and  an  important  occasion,  but  it 
could  have  been  adjusted.  In  fact, 
no  matter  what  the  board  of  the 
National  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored  People  says, 
its  action  toward  segregation  has 
got  to  approximate,  in  the  future 
as  in  the  past,  the  pattern  which 
it  followed  in  the  case  of  the 
separate  camp  for  colored  officers 
during  the  World  War  and  in  the 
case  of  the  Tushcgee  Veterans' 
Hospital.

Colored  pliysicians  and  dentists 
found  it  equally  diffieu't  to  get 
assigned  to  service  as  professional

afterward  these  same  men  were 
•Iraftcd  and  sent  us  privates  to

KASTBIJX  team   OIESTS   OF   ATMEN    EtKS 

On  Tuesday  night  of  last  week,  the  Detroit  Colored 
Giants  were  the  honored  guests  of  the  Athen  Elks  follow- 
ing the  team's  sensational  victory  over  the  Alameda  Elks. 
Ttte  white  "Bills"  were  also  invited  to  attend  and"  a  few 
awppted  tbp-invftfe.  but  thr  nfajority  were  no  doubt  rather 
dawn  hearted  over' their  hard  fought  defeat  and  pf«ferred 
the  consolation  of  thctr  own  beautiful  Home  in  AISTneda. 

for  Manuel  Duar^e's  charges,  I  will  say  that  they 
iTOed'  not'  ftel  {ishimfidi'liA lollops.  Lose  or  d^£)  in  a 
Jl^Iling  cp^nbajt  lil^'  t^vkj  S^iWft  fans  witnessed  l^|j|week, 
jmd  a  team  can  lose  but  little  prestige. 

The  Athen  Elk  Lodge  is  to  be  commended  on  its 
effort  to  show  the  hospitality  of  Oaklanders,  \>'&^  they 
voted  unknimously  to  entertain  the  Detroit  lads,  fhe  club 
rooms  were  packed  when  the  diamond  cavorters  arrived 
un'd  before  being  seated  to  a  grand  spread,  they  were 
heartily  welcomed  by  the  Elks  and  some  of  theTSDO- 
friends,  uHo  urged  them  on  to  victory  under  tWt'^bright 
lights  at  the  Coast  League  Park.  Each  one  of  tH*"iJlayers 
were  intrddbcpd  by  the  writer,  who  filled  the  post  of 
master  of  ceremonies.  The  first  to  take  the  floor  was  Jerry 
-€teodman,  manager  aini  ««xt  was  diminutive  Alba^^More- 
head,  clever  catcher  and  captain.  Getting  a  big  hand  when 
called  on  was  "Big"  Bill  Smith,  6  feet  4  inch  pitcher,  who 
hurled  the  Detroit  team  to  victory. 

Among  the  other  si)eakers  Wtre  Harry  Jeffery,  Ex- 
alted Ruler  of  Athens  Lodge,  who  welcomed  the  players; 
Herb  Clarke,  financial  secretary  and  big  boosteri^o^^se- 
ball,  Ed  Smith,  chairman  of  the  entertainment  iomnittee 
and  Ekl  Jackson,   veteran   ball   cavorter.  *

Even  though  we  may  not  have  the  services  of  two 
chuckers,  Edgar  Brown  and  Dudley  Jones  and  also  Jimmy 
LaBlanc,  star  infielder,  the  Athen  Elk  Stars  of  the  Berk- 
eley Colored  League  are  ready  to  represent  the  league  and 
the   Negro   in    California   i    nthe   Tribune's    State    Baseball 

Championship    TournameiU    which    starts    next    Tuesday,

The  7  to  '4  vifctp'ry  oVcr"  the  Vetet^nfc  SaturWgy'  has 
given  the  boys  plenty  of  confidence  and  for  the  type  of 
team  they  are  facing  in  their  initial  game  on  Saturday, 
August  4,  they  cannot  have  too  much.  On  paper,  thfcir  op- 
ponents, the  Crockett  Refinery  aggregation  are  3  to  1 
favorites,  but  anything  may  happen  on  the  ball  field.  Re- 
member when  the  Alameda  Elks'  centerfielder  slipped  down 
and  two  runs  scored  to  win  for  the*  Detroit  Giants-^ny- 
Uiing  may  happen.  •  .r .  • 

The  Athen  crew  will  have  but  two  utility  noen  with 
if  the  above  trio  {^re  unable  to  play,  for  Jim  Lan«  injured 
his  throwing  arm  and  chest  when  he  collided  with  ,^,  play- 
er last  week,  and  may  not  be  able  to  cover  first.  LaBlanc 
ia  in  San  Jose  and  the  third  sadk  will  be  taken  ov*r  by 
Willie  Haywood,  while  I  am  shifting  Wilson  Martin  to  first. 
"Stark"  is  r  smart  ball  player  as  well  as  a  good  fi^lde^;  and 
means  much  to  the  Elks  inner  wall.  He  has  seen  service  ih 
the  Negro  National  League  with  Steve  Pierce's  Detroit 
.Stars,  (who  by  the  way,  is  going  great  with  a  Qiib  House 
at  Pontiac.  Mich.)  Without  Brown  and  Jones,  tH^'tnound 
duty  will  fall  on  Ernie  Elliott,  Orviss  Knowles  and  Wilbur 
Stout.  ■  ; 

The  latter  in  fact,  is  going  to  be  an  important  factor, 
because  he  will  be  my  general  "ten  star"  utility  ,n>an  and 
may  be  called  on  at  any  time  to  fill  any  position  (h^.pla>-8 
J  all  nine  well)  or  as  a  jjinfjh  hitter.  Beside  that,  he  \Vill,take 
J  his  turn  on  the  hill.  Take  my  tip  and  watch  the  work  this

for  the  Stars  entry  into  the  Trib-

been  together. 
STIIONO    OPPOSmON 

The  game  was  scheduled  with 
the  crack  while  team  in  an  effort 
to  get  the  League  boys  rolling 
along  at  the  same  speeS  which 
they  will  meet  in  the  tourney,  and 
the  fact  thai  the  Veterans  are 
also  in  the  tournament,  boost  the 
Colored  aggregation  chances  to 
finish    near   the  top. 

The  Post  nine  garnered  the 
distinction  of  being  one  of  the  24 
teams  chosen  for  the  Tribune's 
big   diamond    classic,    by   virtue    of

homeruns     ever     knocked     at 
Isth   and    Wood   Street    park. 

"fhe  Veterans  got  one  back  in 
the  fourth,  whsn  January  let 
Corbett's  hard  hit  single  get  by 
him  and  go  to  the  fence.  Their 
next  marker  also  came  via  a  mis- 
cue,  at  short  by  Crowley.  How- 
ever, Ray  made  up  for  it  by 
sending  a  crashing  disputed  sin- 
gle doWn  the  first  ba.se  line  dur- 
ing the  Stars  half  of  the  frame, 
that  scored  Elliott  and  Collins.  F. 
Slronltiierg,  who  had'  relieved 
Comphel  in  the  fifth,  then  walked 
Hill  and  Martin  cleared  the  sacks 
with  a  triple.  Stack  could  have 
made  It  a  homer,  but  being  out 
at  condition,  loafed  circling  the 
bogs. 
Kl^LIOTT    WHIFTH    II 

Elliott  had  the  V.  F.  VV.  boys 
waving  wildly  for  the  first  five 
frames,  striking  out  10  and  al- 
lowed only  two  hits,  but  even  after 
he  had  been  told  to  ease  up  by 
Manager  Speed  Rellly,  the  air 
tight  defensive  working  of  his 
mates  kept  the  Vets  in  the  rear. 
In  the  eighth,  the  first  five  men 
hit  safely  but  the  best  they  could 
do  was  one  run.  A  nice  piece  of 
blocking  on  the  part  of  Jack 
Smith  at  the  home  plate,  chocked 
off  a  run.  After  allowing  one  run 
to  score  on  a  long  fly  in  the  final 
canto,  Ernie  bore  down  to  fan 
the  last  batter  with  men  on  sec- 
ond   and    third.

put  the  game  on  ice  several

BARGAIN  RATES 


for   intelligent,  thrifty  advertisers! 


EFFECTIVE  June  12,  ltt34.  The  Spokesman  rates  for  advertising 
provide  extraordinarily  liberal  quantity  and  lime  discounts. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  special  regard  for  the 
intelligent  and  thrifty  advertiser,  who  desires  the  greatest  reader 
re««poii(>e  at  the  least  cost. 

Though  prepared  primaiily  for  merchants,  included  also  arc 
marked  reductions  in  CHURCH,  FRATERNAL,  ORGANIZATION, 
and  CLASSIFIED  rates.) 

THRIFTY  ADVERTISERS  are  not  deceived  by  sjurious  circu- 
lation figures.  They  know  that  quality  of  circulation  is  more  im- 
portant than  quantity;  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  is 
rewarded  will  depend  on  three  things: 

1.  The  reader's  buying  power. 

2.  The  reader's  confidence  in  the  newspaper  containing  the  adver- 
tiser's message. 

3.  The  cost  of  advertising.  «, 

BUYING  POWER  of  Aframericans,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  discovered,  is  commensurate  lo  that  of  other  Americans. 
Even  in  the  impoverished  Southland,  the  United  States  Census  Bureau 
compiled  in  1930  the  following  significant  information:

THIS  NEWSPAPER,  because  of  its  dependence  in  large  measure 
on  revenue  obtained  from  circulation,  is  able  to  offer  the  advertiser

this  type  of  market.

INTELLIGENT    ADVERTISERS    do    not    expect    a    newspaper    to 
guaranti^  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 
or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  depend  on  two  tilings: 

1 .  The  responsiveness  of  those  readers. 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  thing  advertised. 

READER  RESPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  is  a 
condition  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  VALUES  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  method  by  which  the  thing  for  sale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspaper  can  help  the  advertiser  address  its  readers 
in  an  effective  message.  But  no  newspaper  can  put  vsiue  into  a  product 
if  its  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  gain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECTIVE  ADVEp-nSING  METHODS, 
distinguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  "advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
customer  may  be  deceived  once,  or  perhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finally  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  will 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelligent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  an 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  r«petitloa,  of  "telling  'em 
often  and  telling  'cm  all."  He  knows  that  a  large  amoimt  of  space  is 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecutive  measages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  ...  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simplicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  He 
prepares  his  copy  accordingly  .  .  .  and  he  gets  reapmise. 

It  is  only  for  the  intelligent  advertiser  that  advertbiag  pays!

Don't    Le;t    Fear 
Block  Your  Success 


*  By  Catliflrine  Thatcr 

Pear  forgets  shackles  which  only  courage  can  break 

Why  is  it  that  oftentimes  a  Negro  possessed  of  vision, 
intelligence,  gifted  with  logic,  equipped  with  education, 
fails  to  reach  the  goal  set  by  his  ambition?  Often  it  is 
because  the  fundamental  weapon  in  his  fight  for  success  is 
lacking— be  allows  his  fears  to  overcome  him — he  fails 
txH-auae  he  lacks  courage. 

Wf  admit  that  there  are  far  more  obstacles  in   the 

-^^path  of  the  Aframerican  than 
there  are  in  that  of  the  Nordic; 
we  admit  that  discrimination  is 
practiced;  we  are  more  than  will- 
ing to  adroit  that  injustice  and 
hamiliation  lie  in  store  for  him; 
but  Isn't  that  true  oi  the  Jew,  the 
Christian,  and  all  who  strive  for 
fulfillment  of  their  dreams  and 
desires?  Regardless  of  color  or 
race,  any  person  who  has'  vision 
and  ambition  is  bound  to  meet 
with  opposition  and  hostility. 

Fear  causes  many  of  u.s  to  turn 
tail  and  flee  the  moment  some 
obstacle  looms  against  the  sky- 
line. There  are  those  who  wlU  ex- 
hort the  rest  to  give  up  all  ef- 
forts to  go  on,  pointing  out  that 
calumny  and  antagonism  have 
ontered  the  field  against  them. 
The  truly  intelligent  progressive 
will  ignore  such  attaolts  until  they 
prove  worth  his  notice— then  he 
will  find  means  of  overcoming 
Ihem,  or  a  way  in  which  to  turn 
the  weapons  of  the  attackers 
against   themselves. 

We  should  have  no  patience 
with  and  less  pity  for  the  namby- 
pamby  souU  who  try  to  lead  us— 
BACKWARD.  We  should  consoli 
date,  fight  with  and  for  the  mem- 
ber of  our  group  wlio  strives 
against  ALL  handicaps  to  le4d  us 
I'X>RWARD. 

Fear  is  that  which  breeds  with- 
in the  Negro  a  subconscious  an- 
tagonism against  ALL  men  This 
subconscious  feeling  throw.^  off 
its  own  aura;  the  other  fellow 
feels  and  naturally  resents  it;  the 
re.iult  is  mutual  enmity  and  dis- 
cordant relationship.  Even  though 
we  have  cause  to  fear,  it  is  not 
fair  to  carry  our  antagonistic  at- 
titude to  extremes;  if  we  over- 
come it  to  the  extent  of  giving  the 
other  fellow  the  benefit  of  the 
doubt,  we  will  find  that  by  doing 
so,  we  can  make  any  number  of 
valuable  and  helpful  friends  where 
the  other  attitude  breeds  only  en- 
mity. 

Although  extremists  will  try  to 
make  you  believe  that  force,  vio- 
lence and  destruction  are  the  only 
weapons  which  will  serve  W  free 
y»u,  we  beg  you  to  dtaregnrd 
them;  the  real  weapon*  in  your 
battle  arc:  1.  the  respect  of  your 
fellowmsn  for  your  courage  in  the 
face  of  Injustice  and  humiliation; 
2.  efficient  u.';e  of  orderly  mequD« 
to  obtain  what  is  your*  by  right 
and  privilege:  3.  a  firm  belief  and 
faith  in  the  principles  of  your 
cmmtry;  4.  the  ability  (natural  or 
ocqulfed)  to  reason  out  the  pro 
and  con  of  both  sides  of  every 
story;  s.  and  last  but  by  ne  maans 
least,  the  example  set  by  those  of 
our  race  who  have  followed  the 
fore-g«ing  precepts  and  have  suc- 
ceeded.

DolDumb  Women 
Make  Better  Wives? 

By  BesHle  Mack 

Dr.  Arthur  Frank  Payne,  psychologist  and  lecturer, 
recently  aroused  the  ire  of  several  hundred  co-eds  at  a 
noted  eastern  university  when  he  advanced  the  hypotheses 
that  the  happy  marital  partnership  is  almost  alwaya  tho 
one  wherein  the  husband  has  more  intelligence,  a  better 
education  and  a  wider  range  of  knowledgre  than  tho  wife. 

He  was  vigorously  accused  of  advocating  a  return  to 
the  days  when  the  sole  duties  of  a  wife  were  to  rear  her

Dr.  Payne,  who  ha.s  made  an 
extensive  study  of  the  tremen 
dously  imporUnt  instUution  of 
marriage,  sticks  by  his  guns,  how- 
ever and  even  goes  further  to 
.state  that  even  so-50  marriages 
ar*  not  possible  because  in  a  80-90 
relationship  the  woman  .should  be 
expected  to  contribute  equally 
with  the  man  nnd  therefore  should 
never  expect  alimony  in  ca.se  ot 
separation.  The  really  happy  mar- 
riage, he  suys,  i.s  the  one  where 
one  partner  finds  happiness  in 
giving  more  than  is  received  in 
the  way  of  small  courtesies,  and 
the  college  bred  woman  finds 
small  ploasure  in  perpetually  giv- 
ing in  to  the  grammar  school  hus- 
band. 

He  has  observed  that  if  a  gram- 
mar school  graduate  marries  a 
college  educated  woman  he  almost 
always  gets  an  inferiority  feeling 
ahaut  it;  he  becomes  ashamed 
before  the  college  graduate  wife 
and  she  too,  is  ashamed  of  him.

Mrs,  Mubel  Montgomery  was

wife   is   very   proud   of   her   college  |  beautiful    tea   honoring    her    .sister, 

Mies  Lena  Durroh  of  Chattanooga, 


trained  husband.  .She  makes  up 
for  her  lack  of  a  degree  by  being 
always  charming  and  gracious 
and  she  feels  that  she  must  keep 
abreast  of  the  times  so  as  not  to 
embarrass  him;  whereas  the

marries    a    college    woman    usually 


Tenn..     who     will     be     her     house

The  setting  for  this  delightful 
social  event  was  the  Ashby  Club

an  entirely  different  circle  of 
friends.  These,  says  Dr.  Payne, 
are  the  men  who  seek  the  com- 
panionship of  other  women— wom- 
en who  have  not  "been  every 
where  apd  seen  cver>thing."  One 
such  man,  when  brought  to  task 
for  hla  nieanderings,  excused  him- 
self by  stating  that  be  bad  decid- 
ed   that    he    would    rather    be    the 


Mrs.    Montgomery    who    thrn    prr-

Miss  Belh  Pierre  was  the  only 
other  member  in  the  line.  Miss 
Mary  Labuzon  presided  over  the 
register.  Miss  Carolyn  Carringtoo 
supervised  the  .serving  of  the 
guests  in  tho  spuctous  dining

P'ETE  VISITOR 


SACKA»IENTO— Frail  and  weak- 
ened by  undernourishment  and  his 
vision  impaired  through  lack  of 
glasses  which  lie  was  compelled 
to  sell  in  order  to  procure  food, 
John  Smith.  M-year-old  ex-service 
man,  was  found  in  a  serai-^ed 
condition  in  front  of  a  lunchroom 
on  16th  Street  recently.  The  man 
served  two  enlistments  in  the 
Navy  and  was  an  inmate  of  the 
Soldiers  Home  at  Yountville  until 
a  year  ago  when  he  was  dis- 
charged because  of  the  Economy 
Act.  Since  then  he  i»as  been  wan- 
dering aimlessly  through  the 
state. 

NEWAItK— Answering  final  roll 
call,  Peter  Keller,  vctdran  of  the  I 
Spanish  American  war,  died  last 
month  at  .Saint  James  Hospital, 
age  SO.  When  the  Spanish  fleet 
sailed  out  of  Santiago  Harbor 
July  3,  1898,  Admiral  Cervera  was 
aboard  the  Infanta  Maria  Teresa. 
This  vessel  was  pursued  by  the 
USS  Gloucester.  The  Infanta  re- 
ceived the  full  force  of  the  Ameri- 
can battle  fleet  and  soon  burst 
Into  flames.  When  overhauled,  the 
Gloucester  cast  her  a  line,  saving 
<25  Spanish  sailors  among  whom 
was  Admiral  Cervera.  Keller  di- 
rected the  rescue  and  was  subse- 
quently awarded  the  Congressional 
Medal  of  Honor.

JVEW  HOPE— It  appear,.!  that  the 
Veterans'  Administration  will  soon 
is-.'iue  chocks  to  those  Spanish  war 
veterans  who  were  deprived  of 
their  pensions  because  they  were 
under  55  years  of  ag.  The  Ad- 
ministration required  that  vet- 
erans be  50  per  cent  disabled.  In 
need  and  55  years  of  age.  The 
later  provision  was  .subsequently 
modified  but  those  eligible  were 
directed  to  make  application 
which,  per  se,  was  acknowledg- 
ment that  their  disability  was  not 
service  connected.  Many  refused 
to  comply  and  thus  jeopardize 
their  claims.  These  wi"  be  the 
beneficiaries  Checks  will  cover 
the  period  January  19,  1934  to 
March   27,    1934. 


EQIUPPEI)— Members  of  veteran 
units  meeting  in  the  War  Memor- 
ial Building  wcrs  unofficially  no- 
tified two  days  before  the  general 
strike  that  the  building  would  be 
closed  for  the  duration  of  the 
strike,  v.orkcrs  there  being  affili- 
ated with  striking  union.';.  Amazed 
but  making  no  protest,  several  of 
the  vets  were  standing  by  ready 
to  serve;  not  through  any  desire 
to  oppose  unionists  hut  for  their 
own  convenience  since  99  per  cent 
of  all  organizations  arc  housed  in 
the  Memorial.  Members  of  these 
units  arc  from  evry  walk  in  life: 
select  100  veterans  at  random  and 
it  will  be  shown  that  better  than 
25  per  cent  of  the  crafts  and 
trades  will  be  represented.

Milcy,    near    the    Beach,    Is    ready 
for   occupancy.   This   modern    insti- 
tution   will    employ    approximately 
412  persons,  mo.st  of  whom  will  be 
civil    service    employees.    As    usual 
in    such    cases    veterans    who    can 
qualify     will     be    given     preference 
both  in  examinations  and  appoint- 
ment.    Former     members     of     the 
Hospital     Corps     and     those     who 
have   had   hospital   experience   have 
a   decided   advantage   as  additional 
points    are    allowed    for    such    ser- 
vice. Ordinarily,  board,  room,  heat, 
light    and    laundry   are    provided.

trioteers.   treasury   raiders   or    par- 
asites.     This      oomprehenslvc      and

I  been   awsy  from   the  city.   There 
I  has   been    nothing  going   on   worth 
I  mentioning    where    my    daily    pur- 
suits    take    me,    hence    nothing    to 
[record     In     the     log.     However,     on

nessed.    The     occasion     was     the 
presentation    of    their    Colors    and 
the    reception    of    their    permanent

Th?  Post  wants  the  public  to

have  missed  out.  Especially  to 
those  who  Always  attend  our  par-

Rev.   Fred   A.   Hughes   prior   to  the 
actual    prcscnUlion    of   the   Colors. 
As    usual    the    reverend    was   soul 
stirring      Then     the     colors     were 
brought    in    to    the    tunc    of    some

I'IKOU     I.S    LEADER 

The  lender  of  this  race-baiting 
ounipaigii  is  no  less  a  person  than 
Oswald  I'irov.-.  the  former  minis- 
ler  of  justice,  but  now  minister  of 
dcfen.se.  For  the  readers  to  get 
a  clear  picture  of  what  is  going 
m  in  South  Africa,  il  is  first  of  all 
necessary  to  s'ay  a  few  words 
about    the    political    parties. 

In  South  Africa  there  are  two 
mnjor  political  parties,  the  South 
.\fiic.in  party,  representing  Brit- 
ish capital,  chiefly  invested  in  the  i 
sold  mining  Industry  of  the 
Transvaal.  This  party  is  headed 
by  Gcnrul  Smuts,  Uie  man  who  | 
publicly  insulted  n  group  of  lead- 
ing Negroes  In  New  York  some 
years  ago.  The  other  party  is  call- 
ed the  Nationalist  parly,  chiefly 
supported  by  the  Boer  farmers 
and  Industrialists.  This  party  is 
led  by  General  Herlzog  In  South 
Afriia  uil  politicians  arc  "gener- 
als," ju.st  as  Southern  ones  are 
"colonels." 
•:«    VEAItS  OF   KIVALKY 

For  20  >rHrt  these  two  imrtirs 
luui-  Imtii  fighling  CBch  other  as 
bIKerly  mh  Republicans  and  Drni- 
orriils.  Ilnuever,  they  nmde  iM'urr 
in  VXtX  Tirlimin  Itoos.  Ihe  chief 
Jiislice  of  .South  Africa,  was  the 
IM'iicc-iiiaki'r.  He  resigned  from 
the  h'-nch  and  toured  Ihe  country 
in  Ihe  early  part  of  the  year, 
pointInK  out  lo  the  while  |ieople— 
Kngll^li  and  Boer  alike — that 
Sniilb  .Africa  Mils  faced  with  ii 
iiillnnal  rrlsis,  that  If  HertMg 
and  Sniuls  did  not  stop  fighting 
c:uh  iillirr.  the  Datives,  with  thr 
:i'd  of  Ihe  Japanese,  would  run 
the    «vhltes   Into   the  sen. 

Thi.H  was  enough  to  send  the 
Iwo  generals  Into  each  other's 
arms  They  immediately  forgot  all 
their  differences  and  squabbles. 
Up  went  the  cry  throughout  the 
length  nnd  breadth  of  South  Af- 
lien  calling  u|)on  the  Europeans 
lo  rally  to  the  defense  of  "white 
civilization."  HcrUog.  who  was 
then  prime  minister,  invited  Gen- 
oral  Smuts  to  bury  the  hatchet 
and  join  his  cabinet.  Smuts  agreed 
ind  a  national  coalition  govern- 
ment was  set  up. 
PIKOW    AFRICA'S    HITLER 

It  was  then  thai  Pirow  saw  his 
chance  of  becoming  the  South 
African  Hitler.  He  took  over  the 
ministry  of  defense,  so  that  ho 
could  smash  the  Jews.  Ihe  Com- 
munists, nnd  Socialists  in  Germn- 
ly.  I'Irow  proceeded  lo  Germany 
0  study  Nazi  methods.  During 
lis  stay  there  he  was  the  guest  of 
Hit  lor. 

On    his    return    lo   South    Africa, 
'le    openly    launched    a    campaign 
>f    racial    InclUmcnl,   at   the    rame 
Ime    nrgnnizing    the    white    unem- 
ployed   Into    Storm    Troops,    called 
Mv>erial    Service    Battalions.    TheM  '

"bla<-k    Invaders,"    as    the    native, 
ire    referred    to    here. 
LIFE    AND    DEATH    HTKUOOLB 
Addressing    hi.   men    in   a   broad- 
cast speech,  PIrow  told   them   that 
they   had   the  great   task   of  deter- 
mining  for  the   next   few  centurle. 
nr  perhaps  ns  long  a.  our  Weatorn

pecially  the   youth    and    the    "poor

THE  CINDER  PATH-         ^ 
POLITICALLY  SPEAKING  , 


By  flack  Klmbrough 

August    28    is    not    so    fur    away, 
I  but    the    politicians    can't    do    any- 
thing   about    It     The  ^strike    situa- 
tion   hns    had    them    well    hobbled 
In    Northern    California,    but    now 
that  it   Is   under   control,   they   arc 
away    like    Metcolfc    in    the    100 
I      There   are    four   large   democratic 
groups    in    the    East    Bny    district: 
"The   New   Deal   Democrctic  Club.' 
^  '"Business     Women"s     Dem.     Clnb." 
and   the   "Creel   for  Governor  "  olub 
which    Is    led    by    Wilson    and    B 
Rumford    in    Berkeley.    This   divi^,- 
ion    may    be    the    natural    result   of 
the      large      field     of      Democratic 
candidates.   They  are :   Creel,   Dew- 
j  ey,     Evans.     MaJabey.      MoNlchols. 
'Sinclair,    Wardell.    M     K     Young. 

Right     now     Creel     nnd     Sinclair 
seem   to   be    way   up   in    front,   but 
there's    many    a    slip     The    EPIC 
group      made      a      clever      political 
j  move    in    appointing    Dr.    T     R.    M 
j  Howard,  president  of  the   Econom- 
;  Ic,       Commercial       and       Political 
[League    of    California     As    one    of 
I  the    EPIC    campaign    stale    orgou- 
izers,   he   will   direct   the   campaign 
among   the   Negro   voters   through- 
out the   state. 

I  II  I.  o.tlmated  that  there  arc 
I  about  40,000  egro  voles  in  Cal- 
ifornia and  about  7.000  In  the  East 
Bay.  We  sincerely  hope  that  th* 
East  Bay  group  can  get  together 
before  the  election  but  that  is  a 
lot  to  hope  for.

fV^m  Chicago,  one  of  the  Nfegro  teams  who  are  entered  in 
'the  Denver  Post  Tournament  have  made  tb«t-same  move..  I 
speak  of  the  Kansas  City  Monarchs,  who  wili  play  in  the 
Colorado  tourney  along  with  one  other  <!k)loned  team,  the 
•Denver  White  fiUephants^ 

■  Incidentally,  the  Monarchs  also  sought  the  services  of 
!a  southpaw,  as  is  my  quest,  and  they  afgpe<^  the  greatest 
;  of    all    Negro    left    hand    pitchers,    Willie    Foster,    leading 
;  tnoundamen  for  Bob  Cole's  Chicago  Anieriiftn  Giants  and ' 
ehamps  of   t^ie   Negro   National   League' laiMf  season.   The  i 
Ifiaysees  were  given  a  good  chance  to  co^'tJle  $5000  first  [ 

■  prize  money,  and  with  Foster  twirling  they,.are  now   hot 
ifavorites,  especially  with  such  stars  as  Chet  Brewer,  Rogan 

and  Beverly  to  assist  on  the  htlL  And  the  Denver  folks  wiU 
ssv/  a  sweet  innerwall  with  Duncan  behin3~lhe  plate,  Giles  , 
rfS-first,  Mothel  on  second,  Allen  in  shorfTBrti  Joseph  cover- 
jing  third  when  the  tourney  ojjened  August  1   for  the   12 
■day  play. 

Coming  'j:  ok  to  nay  own  t.cuhles,  I  need  a  portside

A  victory  in  either  tusale  »nd  then  1  have  Dudley  Jones 
'and  Wilbur  Stout  to  use  for  the  third  play.  Jones,  who  has 
;becn  ill,  is  nuiking  every  effort  to  round  into  shape  and  it's 
;fortunate  that  he  decided  tp  join  the  squad,  for  I  just  learn

BARGAIN  RATES 

■  .  '  ■ 

for  Intelligent,  thrifty  advertisers! 


EFFECTTIVE  June  12,  1934,  The  Spokesman  rates  for  advertising 
provide  extraordinarily  liberal  quantity  and  time  discounts. 
These  discounts  have  been  arranged  with  special  regard  for  the 
intelligent  and  thrifty  advertiser,  who  desires  the  great««t  mukr 
iTspoBM  at  the  least  cost. 

Though  prfj)arcd  primarily  for  merchants,  included  also  arc 
marked  reductions  in  CHURCH.  FRATERNAL,  ORGANIZATION, 
and  CLASSIFIED  rates.) 

THRIFTY  ADVERTISERS  are  not  deceived  by  spurious  circu- 
lation figures.  They  know  that  quality  of  circulation  is  more  im- 
portant than  quantity;  that  whether  or  not  the  advertiser's  thrift  is 
rewarded  will  depend  on  three  things: 

1.  The  reader's  bujing  power. 

2.  The  reader's  confidence  in  the  newspaper  containing  the  adver- 
tiser's message. 

3.  The  cost  of  advertising. 

BUYING  POWEIR  of  Aframericans,  as  some  thrifty  advertisers 
have  already  discovered,  is  commensurate  to  that  of  other  Americans. 
Even  in  the  impoverished  Southland,  the  United  States  Census  Bun;au 
compiled  in  1930  the  follo\\ing  significant  information: 

NEGRO    PURCHASING    POWER    IN    NINE    IMPORTANT    CITIES 
AND  ITS  DISTRIBUTION  FOR  PRINCTPAL  GROUPS  OF  ITEMS  OF

THIS  NEWSPAPER,  because  of  its  dependence  in  large  measure 
on  revenue  obtained  from  circulation,  is  able  to  offer  the  advertiser 
rates  far  below  those  generally  set  for  the  opportunity  of  addressing 
this  type  of  market.

INTELLIGENT    ADVERTISE21S    do    not    expect    a    newspaper    to 
guarantee  results.  They  know  that  the  best  guarantee  any  news- 
paper can  offer  is  an  opportunity  to  speak  to  its  readers.  Whether 
or  not  the  advertiser  gets  results  will  depend  on  two  things: 

1.  The  responsiveness  of  those  readers. 

2.  The  readers'  ability  to  buy  the  thing  advertised. 

READER  RESPONSE,  as  every  intelligent  advertiser  knows,  is  a 
condition  which  the  advertiser  himself  can  control.  Whether  or  not  he 
controls  it  will  depend  on  tw^o  things: 

1.  The  VALUES  in  money  saved  or  quality  purchased  by  buying  the 
thing  advertised. 

2.  The  EFFECTIVENESS  of  the  method  by  which  the  thing  for  sale 
is  advertised. 

Obviously,  a  newspaper  can  help  the  advertiser  address  its  readers 
iu  an  effective  message.  But  no  newspttpcr  can  put  value  into  a  product 
if  its  purchase  represents  no  saving  in  money  or  no  g^ain  in  quality. 

SOUND  VALUES  and  EFFECHVE  ADVERTISING  METHODS, 
distinguish  the  intelligent  advertiser.  The  intelligent  advertiser  will 
not  offer  cheap,  inferior  goods  for  sale  at  high  prices.  He  knows  that  a 
customer  may  be  deceived  once,  or  perhaps  twice,  but  not  forever;  and 
that  when  the  customer  finally  discovers  he  has  been  deceived,  he  will 
buy  elsewhere. 

The  intelligent  advertiser  uses  forethought,  too,  in  choosing  an 
advertising  method.  He  knows  the  value  of  repetitieB,  of  "telling  'em 
often  and  telling  'cm  all."  He  knows  that  a  large  amount  of  space  is 
more  effective  if  divided  into  several  consecutive  messages  than  if  used 
all  at  once.  ...  He  knows  the  value  of  white  space,  of  simplicity  of 
design,  of  not  overcrowding  his  message  with  confusing  details.  He 
prepares  his  copy  accordingly  .     .  and  he  gets  response. 

It  Is  only  for  the  intelligent  advertiser  that  aihrertislBg  pays!

Negro  Women  Said  to 
Be  Desirous  of  Nothing 

By  ik^Mtiie  Mack 
In  spite  of  the  tangibility  of  the  realized  dreams  of 
Dinah  Watts  Pace.  Huey  Laney,  Mary  McLeod  Bethune  and 
many  others,  Negro  women  are  constantly  being  accused 
of  being  sadly  lacking  in  ideals — in  club  life  and  as  individ- 
uals. They  get  nowhere  in  club  life,  say  their  accusers, 
because  nine  tenths  of  them  are  content  to  drift  with  the 
tide  rather  than  do  a  little  rowing.  They  do  not  travel  far 
OS  individuals  because  they  almost  always  have  no  particu- 
lar port  In  mind.  ^ 
The   dictionary  defines   the  word  - 


ideal  as  being  a  mind-concept  of 
a   thing  desired. 

The  Negro  woman,  therefore  la 
accused  of  being  desirous  of  noth- 
ing Many  will  say,  (and  perhaps 
rightly  too)  that  those  who  make 
this  accusation  know  not  whereof 
they  speak  but  the  thought  comes 
lo  mind  that  there  may  l>e  tboae 
among  us  who  have  not  as  yet 
appreciated  the  value  of  Dr. 
Frank  Crane  might  prove  benefi- 
cial. 

"When  Che  ship  leaves  port  the 
captain  knows  where  he  wants 
to  go.  To  the  soul  the  idea  Is  the 
ship's  destinaUon.  Most  people  who 
never  arrive,  fail  because  they 
have  no  goal.  They  sail  aimlessly. 
Tbey  mistake  motion  for  pro- 
gress, and  often  the  motion  is  in 
a   circle. 

Get  an  ideal.  Vou  do  not  suc- 
ceed because  you  do  not  know 
what  you  want,  or  you  do  not 
wont  it  intensely  enough.  Deter- 
mine upon  what  thing  is  most 
worth   while   to  you    in   the   world

BON     VOYAGE 

Miss  Rubye  I.  Morgan,  Jovely 
daughter  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  N.  C. 
Morgan  of  Ward  Street,  Berkeley, 
departed  on  Saturday  for  an  in- 
<ieftnite  visit  in  Los  Angeles.  Miss 
Morgan  is  well  known  as  an  ae- 
A>mplistaed     dressmaker     She     was 


and  is  dependent  for  its  perpetua- 
tion upon  his  ignorance  and  sub- 
mlssiveness.  It  places  the  landlord 
above  the  law  and  thus  stimulates 
that  lawlessness  which  is  charac- 
teristic of  the  South.  It  is  a  blind 
alley,  trapping  all  those  who  en- 
ter. 

To  its  conditions,  according  to 
this  book,  most  of  the  tenants  arc 
resigned.  There  is  some  little  re- 
sentment, Mr.  Johnson's  investiga- 
tors found.  Indeed,  there  must  be 
much  more  than  is  indicated  in 
this  l>ook,  for  it  was  not  far  from 
the  communities  surveyed  that  the 
Camp  Hill  revolt  flared.  Even  Ne-

Weighted  by  its  own  inadequac- 
ies, the  plantation  system,  already 
anachronistic,  is  doomed  to  inevi- 
table destruction,  carrying  with  it 
both  the  Negro  tenant  and  the 
white  landlord.  Although  Mr. 
Johnson  indicates  the  hopelessness 
of  the  system  and  points  out  Its 
basic  conflict  with  the  limes,  he 
offers  no  solution.  Neither  govern- 
ment aid  nor  independent  land 
ownership  offers  permanent  relief. 
The  obvious  solution  which  Mr. 
Johnson  does  not  suggest  is  social 
revolution:  the  introduction  of  a 
lysUm  which  will  place  the  coh- 
trol  of  the  land  in  the  hands  of 
those  who  cultivate  it  and  whose 
goal  will  be  production  for  use' 
rather   than   for   profit.

i    THE  ROOTS  OF  REUGIOUS  WAR 

G«mt  editorial  by  the  Rev.  DauicI  G 
BOl.  of  the  First  African  Methodist  Ei>is- 
«op«l    Church,    Oakland: 

rUOM  Constantino  (Algeria)  comes  word 
of  the  maseacre  of  many  Jews  in  a  re- 
ligioua  war  which  has  been  launched  by 
^Itfohammedan  Arabs  against  the  Children 
of  Israel.  Jewish  passengers  have  been 
•iTttgg^l  from  public  conveyances  and 
killed!  Business  enterprisea  oMnicd  and 
operated  by  Jews  have  been  looted  and 
wrecked!  With  a  type  of  frenzy  and  hate 
as  religion  con  engender,  the  slaughter 
(;ocs  on  with  full  approbation  of  the  Mos- 
lem God!  A  Jewish  soldier  is  alleged  to 
have  desecrated  a  Mosque — and  that  is 
reaaon  enough  to  slaughter  the  innocent. 
It  is  reported  that  martial  law  has  been 
declared  and  Senegalese  troops  are  at- 
tempting to  bring  order  out  of  chaos. 

A  few  weeks  ago  we  witnessed  an  exo- 
da*J  of  Jews  from  Germany.  Religious 
hatred  and  bigotry  seized  the  hearts  of 
the  leaders  of  the  German  Republic  and 
members  of  the  Jewish  Intelligencia  were 
d^vcn  from  the  Fatherland.  Theirs  was  , 
the  crime  of  being  bom  of  Jewish  ances- 
try! Pogroms  such  as  the  world  witnessed 
in  Old  Russia 'were  re-enacted  by  "Chris- 
tian" Germany!  Purification  of  the  Ger- 
man blood  stream  v.;a3  the  object  of  this 
religio-political-racial  war  against  the  seed 
of  Abraham.  Some  of  the  finest  hearts 
iu)d  minds  of  Judaism  and  of  the  world 
were  forced  to  seek  asylum  in  foreign 
lands. 

■  '  The  Moslem-Jewish  Tragedy  in  Arabia 
today  re-echoes  the  Christian-Jewish 
Tragedy  which  has  been  enacted  through- 
out the  world  for  nearly  two  thousand 
ypunl  Wth  the  approbation  of  the  Chris- 
tian God,  Catholics  and  Protestants  have 
uantn  the  seed  of  hatred  all  the  way  from 
Golgotha  to  the  uttermost  parts  of  the 
earth!  The  pound  of  flesh  has  been  exact- 
ed from  every  Jewish  generation.  In  song 
and  in  story;  in  pictm-c  and  through  the 
drama;  through  catechism  and  by  silent, 
'dtdderstanding  acquicacencc  they  have  laid 
tb^  very  foundation  of  ill  will  and  shame 
irtiich  baptised  the  fields  of  Europe  with 
human  gore,  formed  the  ghettoa  in  urban 
eenters  and  catablislicd  the  precedent  for 
Arabia  today. 


ri.  CONRAD  HI'^NRY  MOEHLMAN, 
(Jamefi  B.  Colgr.te  Professor  of  the 
HBuory  of  Christianity  at  the  Colgate- 
Rochester  Divinity  School)  has  spoken  of 
some  Unchristianized  Areas  of  Christianity 
and  the  Bhamc  of  the  holy  faith  as  fol- 
knri: 

"Three  inherited  unethical  Christian 
attitudes  involve  the  American  Indian,  the 
M«gro  and  Judaiam.  In  Helen  Hunt  Jack- 
'A  Century  of  Dishonor'  and  similar 
the  American  Indian  has  had 
IMttial  Justice  done  him.  As  long  as  Al- 
beit Schweitxer  continues  his  work  at 
Lanl^reqe  in  French  E>}uatorial  Africa, 
llMiatIng  that  he  is  there  to  make  atone- 
awai  f or  the  white  man's  it^justicc  and  in- 
InniHuiity  to  the  black  man.  Christianity 
wiBliave  before  it  an  object  lesson  whose 
BBtBiatinnii  are  all  too  obvious. 

I^at,  strange  to  relate,  Christian 
ha*  not  had  the  courage  to  face 
Ghrifltian-Jewish  issue.  The  Christian-

PRCM  the  heart  of  the!^^0;^p  American

uttered  in  defense  of  Judaism -by  the  Rev. 
!{e<iry  M.  F:dmonds  of  Birmingham,  Ala- 
Ijai:ia,  to  t^c  Vanderbilt'SChool  of  Re- 
ligion: 

"We  have  dfimned  you  fo^  the  very  at- 
titudes which  wa  oarselve^,)iave  made  in- 
ovilable.  We  have  robbed/  ^ou  and  now 
criticise  you  for  being  secpetive.  We  have 
driven  you  together  Uke  sbiep  m  a  storm 
F.nd  now  call  you  clannish. «  - 

"We  have  accused  you'  of.  materialism, 
because  you  have  been  successful  in  busi- 
ness. Your  prosperity  has  been  an  evi- 
dence of  a  mercenary  mind,  ours  an  evi- 
dence or  tlie  favor  of  God. 

"We  have  taken  yoiir  BlMe  over  and 
>nade  it  ours  and  said  never  a  word  of 
appreciation  of  the  genius  for  God  which 
produced  it.  Through  all  'the  Christian 
centuries  our  ritual  has  rested  upon  yours 
.  nd  in  these  days  of  enrichment  of  wcr- 
bhip  we  discover  once  more  how  rich  yours 
is — but  no  intimation  of  thanks. 

"We  have  called  picace  a  Christian  atti- 
tude, forgetting  that  it  was  a  Jew  who 
first  used  those  words,  which. now  belong 
to  humanity,  about  beating  swords  into 
I)loughshare3  and  spears  ;  into  pruning 
nooks."  r, 

^Jki\ 

BLACK  MEN  of  America  and  of  West 
and  South  Africa  know  Yfi^&t  it  means 
to  Buffer  and  to  die.  They,  too,  have  been 
I  he  victims  of  religious  bigotry  and  hate. 
Slavery  and  slave  breedindv  prostitution 
and  rape,  ghettos  and  exploitation  have 
crushed  them  to  earth  v,'\^]fi  religion  has 
openly  and  silently  acquiesoed.  These  are 
the  things  that  have  danMwd.  the  soul  of 
"Christian"  America  and  established  a 
norm  of  conduct  for  a  Pagan  world.  The 
rask  before  us,  however,  is  pot  a  hopeless 
one.  ••'  .1    • 

The  findings  cf  historical!  research ;  the 
incscajiable  facts  of  Anthropology;  the  di- 
recting light  of  the  social ,  «cicnces  have 
come  to  re-enforce  the  teachings  of  Juda- 
ism and  we  discover  the  basis  of  a  com- 
mon, intelligent  religious  failb.  The  philos- 
ophy of  the  "Sermon  on  tha  Mount"  runs 
like  a  thread  of  gold  throi|gb  the  teach- 
ings  oj  the  Prophets  of  Israel,  the  words 
of  the  lowly  Nazarene  and  the  exhorta- 
tions of  Mohammed!  Thcra.aie  no  impos- 
sible racial,  national,  raligious,  cultural 
barriers  to  universal  undorstanding  and 
good  \vilL!  Interdependence,  world  unity 
and  Brotherhood  are  upon  usi, Mohammed- 
an, Christian  and  Jew  must  unite  with  the 
peoples  cf  the  world  to  destroy  the  seed  of 
religion   and    racial    hatred!

RACE   KlIXKItS— Among   Negroes 

the     homicidal     tendency     has 

reached  a  btagc  that  cnuacs   great 

alarm.  Frankly  speaking,  It  la  not 

,  alone     alarming     but     murders 

among    the    group    have    been    of 

I  such   (rcntieney    that    there    should 

I  be  some  concerted  effort  made  to 

!  jtop  tb:m. 

I'rcss  and  pulpit  should  unite  in 
I  arousing     public     opinion.     Strong 
I  editorials  by  the   press,  ond  sting-  ] 
iiig     comments     from     the     pulpit 
could  do  much  toward  allaying  the 
tigerish   spirit   that   impels    to   kill.  ; 
itomc  of  the  murders  are  commit- 
ted   for    the    most    trivial    things.  | 
The     dli-agreemcnt     in     some     un- 
seemly argument:   the   controversy  ! 
over  tlic  ownership  of  a  few  pen-  [ 
nies    have    been    sufficient    causes 
for   tlM   taking  of  a   life.   One   can  [ 
not   read  a  Negro  paper  that  does  j 
not    contain    one    or    more    bomi-  | 
I'idcs     A    Cincinnati,    Ohio,    paper 
recently   published   a   list   of   seven 
killings  occurring  on  one  Saturday 
night.    It   appears   farcical    to   pro- 
test at  a  lynching  when  wc,  among 
ourselves,   hold   life   so  cheap. 

It  might  be  said  that  such  con- 
lllions  should  not  be  given  public- 
ity; that  they  should  be  treated 
with  studied  silence;  that  the 
criminal  aspects  and  tendencies  of 
the  group  should  be  kept  in  the 
background;  th.it  oniy  the  good 
should  bo  blazoned  and  heralded 
to  the  world.  But  not  so:  Unfor- 
tunately, the  Negro  is  judged  as  a 
unit. 

The  dereliction  of  the  one  re- 
flects on  the  many.  We  have  been 
too  lenient  r/ith  the  criminally  in- 
clined. Too  nfraid  that  wc  might 
be  uccuscd  of  drawing  a  social 
line.  The  press  has  considered  the 
noc^ible  loss  of  a  subscription,  and 
the  pulpit  ha:i  debated  whether  or 
no  it  iiilght  affect  the  collection 
plate. . 

Down  In  Shrcveport,  La.,  a  mob 
coinpo»id  of  Negi'oes  sought  to 
emulate  their  white  pfototy^o  and 
lynched  one  of  their  own.  That 
band  of  mongrels  could  not  have 
been  aroused  to  the  pitch  of  the 
.ludjc  Lyneh  method  on  one  of 
anotiicr  race  under  any  circum- 
slancc.  No;  not  even  had  one  of 
thcif  wives  or  daughters  been  vio- 
lated. But  thpy  took  Grafton  Page, 
jn,  one  of  their  own  race  stripped, 
ti;d  his  hands  above  his  head  to 
the  limb  of  a  tree  and  clubbed 
'tin  tj  death.  And  for  what"  He 
wnj  accused  of  being  a  troublo 
a)al:cr.  Pcihaps  Grafton  Pago 
n-Ri  nut  a  "good  nigger"  and  dl<| 
not  kmv'ow.  That  mob  of  Negroes 
ihould  be  arrested,  convicted  and 
/ivn  the  .•'i-n:  sentence  that  we 
'Icninnd  of  all  lynchers. 

It  Is  to  be  sjcn  whether  or  no 
,vc  will  be  as  diligent  in  the 
3cnrch  and  prosecution  of  the  Ne- 
^ro  murderers  of  Grafton  Pogc  as 
wc  v;ould  be  if  the  murderers 
vcrc  of   any   other   race.

CALL   A   SKCOND. 
PAN-AFRICAN  CONQREi^ 

With  the  consent  and  financial 
support  of  the  Association,  Dr. 
Dubois  two  years  later  called  a 
Second  Pan-African  Congress.  It 
assembled  In  London  for  two 
day!*,  AugUbt  28-29,  1921;  in  Brus- 
sels for  three  days,  August  31- 
Sriptemlicr  1  and  2;  and  in  Paris 
i^eptchiber  5-6,  with  113  delegates 
from  26  different  groups,  and 
with  100  visitors.  There  was  much 
infrcstins  and  provocative  dis- 
cussion nnd  debate,  and  many 
resolutions  relative  to  the  welfare 
of  the  Negro  race  were  passed. 
Gratien  Candacc  of  Guadeloupe 
l^ecame  President  and  Isaac  Bcton 
of  Paris,  secretary.  Dr.  DuBois 
presented  the  resolutions  to  the 
League  of  Nations  at  Geneva  and 
urged  that  a  special  section  be 
formed  in  the  ^ternational  Labor 
Bureau  to  deal  with  native  prob- 
lems; that  representation  be  given 
on  the  Mandates  Commlasion^  and 
that  an  international  Institute  be 
organized  to  study  the  Negro 
problem. 

Accompanying  Dr.  DuBols  to 
Europe  to  aid  in  the  organization 
of  the  Congress  were  Walter 
White  and  Jessie  Fauset.  The 
Congress  cost  $3,068.14,  of  which 
the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  paid  $2846.02. 

In  the  fall  of  1923  Dr.  buBois 
conducted  interesting  and  suc- 
cessful sessions  of  the  Third  Pan- 
African  Con^rresn  1^  London  and 
Lisbon 

The  Fourth  Pan-African,  with 
200  delegates  represcniiog  13  coun- 
tries met  In  New  York,  August 
21-24,  1927,  was  the  largest  of  the 
four  international  gatherings. 
TIIB  LONG  KIOHt  FOR 
HArriAN    I>1UCKOOM 

Stirred  by  rejwrls  of  brutalities 
and  atrocities  incident  to  the 
American  Occupation  in  Haiti,  the 
N.  A  A.  C.  P.  Board  In  March 
1020.  sent  James  \Veldon  Jolinson 
and  Herbert  J.  Scligmann  to  the 
black  republic  for  six  weeks  to 
Investigate. 

Upon  his  return.  Mr.  Johnson 
published  charges  that  Haitian 
autonomy  was  forcibly  overthrown 
by  the  U.  9.  Marine  CorJ>s;  that 
over  3000  Haitian  "rebels"  were 
killed  during  the  occupation;  that 
Haitian  men  apd  wonn^n  hxl  been 
tortured  and  ricar-slnvery  revived 
to  build  roads  (or  the  American 
forces;  that  the  salal4cs  of  the 
Haitian  r»rc»ident  and  other  of- 
ficials had  been  withheld  because 
thry  would  not  sign  a  contract 
giving  the  National  City  Bank  of 
New  Yorft  excliiHtve  flscnl  mon- 
opoly; that  rl^ld  censorship  by 
Amerlcnn  force*  prevented  Hai- 
tians from  exi>osing  conditions  to 
the  world,  and' thai  the  American 
government  had  failed  to  redeem 
lt.'i  pledges  to  old  Ifaltl  financial- 
ly,   educationally    or   otherwise. 

Mr.  Johnson  personally  pUwod 
the  information  at  the  disposal  of 
Senator  Harding  on  August  i, 
insn,  nnd  Mr.  tlardlng  used  It 
with  telling  effect  In  bis  campaign 
speeches.  The  Haitian  qu'^stlon 
thus  became  hn  tm'portant  l.saue  In 
the  presidential  caQipnIgn.  Clumsy 
but  unsuccoMful  efforts  were  |

Barnctt  of  the  Marine  Corpi  In 
Haiti  with  admission  that  3,290 
Haitians  had  been  murdered  and 
that  he  had  been  inexpressably 
shocked  at  the  "inJiscriminatc 
killings." 

Secretary  Daniels  sought  to  dis- 
credit Getieral  Barnctt's  admis- 
sions. Urged  on  by  the  Associa- 
tion. Senator  HardInK  reiterated 
his  charges.  Secretary  Daniels 
then  appointed  a  Naval  Board  of 
Inquiry  to  hold  hearings  In  Wash- 
ington and  Haiti  for  complete  in- 
ve.stigation  of  the  charges.  In 
prompt  ,  press  statement.i,  Mr. 
Johnson  prophesied  this  "Investi- 
gation" would  be  only  another 
whitewaah. 

His  prophecy  came  true.  Gener- 
al Burnett  modified  his  original 
admission.  Other  high  witnesses 
were  evasive.  The  hearings  held 
in  Haiti  were  farcical.  Haitian 
witnesses  with  direct  evidence 
were  barred  from  the  hearings 
and  others  were  intimidated.  As 
ex|>ected,  the  Court  of  Inquiry  ab- 
solved the  Marines. 
HArriAN  OPINION 
ORGANIZED 

When  the  66th  Congress  ad- 
journed without  acting  on  Joint 
resolutions  (Soiling  for  a  complete 
investigation  of  all  American  acts 
in  Haiti,  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  Board 
ordered  Secretary  James  Weldon 
Johnson  to  begin  organizing  Hai- 
tian opinion.  This  hs  proceeded  to 
do.  and  on  November  17,  1920,  the 
Patriotic  Union  of  Haiti  was 
formed  with  M.  Georges  Sylvain, 
noted  Haitian  lawyer  and  diplo- 
mat as  head.  It  shortly  became 
national  in  scope  and  membership 
and  shortly  sent  a  commission  of 
three  leading  Haitians,  one  of 
whom  was  Stenio  Vincent,  now 
President  of  Haiti,'  to  the  United 
States  to  present  a  memorial  to 
the  President,  to  Congress  and 
to  the  American  people,  reviewing 
American  rule  in  Haiti  and  con- 
demning the  Marine  Terror. 

American  newspapers  gave  wide 
publicity  to  the  Memorial  but 
Colonel  .lohn  H.  Ru.saell  immedi- 
ately ett.iblished  a  censorship  In 
Haiti  forbidding  publication  of 
American  press  comments  in  Hai- 
tian   nsw8paper.s.

two  republics,  and  a  close  watch 
was  kept  on  all  developments  re-

THE  ik:j 

DLSTl'RBANCEH 

Following  disturbances  In  Haiti 
In  1929,  when  President  Hoover 
u.sked  Congress  for  authorization 
for  a  commission  to  study  and 
report  on  the  situation  there,  the 
rv.  A.  A.  C.  P.  Board  telegraphed 
him  painting  to  the  utter  lailure 
of  the  American  Occupation  to 
justify  its  courbc  or  to  restore 
democratic  rule,  and  warning 
against  the  appointment  of  a 
Commission  that  might  whitewash 
the  Occupation. 

An  all-white  commission  v.-a: 
appointed  on  February  7.  1930.  Dr. 
Robert  R.  oMton,  principal  of 
TusUegce  In.stitule  was  a.sked  to 
head  a  scp.iratc  commission  to 
study  cducat\pn  in  Haiti.  The 
President's  (^omuiis»ion  visited 
Haiti  and  rendered  a  report  cor- 
roborating the  Association'^  charg- 
es and  embodying  many  of  its 
recommendations.  The  Mot  on 
Commission  later  made  a  fine  re- 
port   on    Haitian    education. 

In  January  1931,  Secretary  Wal- 
ter White  visited  Haiti  and  con- 
ferred with  President  Stenio  Vin- 
cent nnd  many  other  prominent 
pci'sons  on  Haitian  affairs, 
throughout  the  year  the  Associa- 
tion pushed  its  fight  for  "Haitlan- 
iiuition"  of  all  government  work 
in  the  country. 

In  Dtrember  1981.  the  N.  A.  A. 
C.  P.  presented  to  President  Hoo- 
ver a  memorial  protesting  against 
the  ultimatum  of  October  26  by 
the  American  Minister  holding  up 
the  ralaries  of  all  Haitian  govern- 
ment officlnU,  except  th;  white 
Amerlrnns.  It  complained  thai  "at 
present  the  Hnitinn  government 
cannot  appropriate  a  dollar  for 
any  purpose  without  the  consent 
of  our  (the  American)  financial 
adviser,"  nnd  asked  for  complete 
restoration  of  financlul  nnd  politi- 
cnl  autonomy  to  Haiti,  withdrawal 
of  the  Marines  and  negotiation  of 
a  new  treaty  constitutionally  ne- 
gotiated with  the  consent  of  the 
legislatures   of   k>oth    nations." 

The  Memorial  was  also  signed 
by  the  American  Civil  Liberties 
Union,  the  Central  Conference  of 
American  Rabbis,  the  Fellowship 
of  Reconciliation,  the  League  for 
Industrial  Democracy,  the  Metho- 
dist Federation  for  Social  Service, 
th:  National  Association  of  Col,- 
oi'od  Women,  the  National  Urban 
League    nnd    the    People's    I^obby. 

AlMut  the  same  time  the  Asso- 
ciation presented  a  memorandum 
to  Senator  Reed  Smoot,  chairman 
of  the  Senate  Finance  Commlllee 
for  investigation  of  the  holding 
and  flotation  of  Haitian  loans  in 
this  country,  the  imposition  of 
Haitian  loans  by  force,  the  dubi- 
ous activities  of  certain  American 
bankers  in  Haiti  "dealing  with 
themselves"  and  operating  through 
the  State  Department  without 
congressional  sanction. 
WITHDRAWAL  OF  MARI.NES 
FINALLY    PROMIMED 

Tliroughout  1981,  the  Associa- 
tion actively  fought  to  end  Amer- 
ican control  of  Haitian  finances. 
l.rfirgvly  OS  a  result  of  ita  13-year 
agitation,  an  accord  was  signed  on 
August  7,  1983,  between  the  two 
governments  for  v-lthdrawal  of 
the    Marines    by    October    1,    1934. 

Recently  when  President  Rootw- 
vrlt  vi.slted  Haiti,  he  promii^d  to 
withdraw  the  Marines  on  August 
1.5.  10J4.  This  pledge  was  undoubt- 
edly influenced  by  the  activity  of 
the  Association  prior  to  and  dur- 
ing the  Pan-American  Conference 
at  Monte\'ideo  where  Dr.  Emeit 
H  Oruenlng.  an  N  A  A  C.  P. 
member  and  adviser  to  the  Amerl- 
c«n  delegation,  was  instrumental 
In  working  out  An  agreement 
ending    the    American    Qceupation. 


Uy  Mivmn  Robrrson 
Mr.  (iooige  S.  Schuyler,  Pitts- 
burgh Courier  columnist,  writing 
In  the  August  Issue  of  the  '  Ameri- 
can Sptctator,'  a  "Lilci.iry  News- 
paper," advances  Ih'j  extraordi- 
nary theory  that  the  brj>l  lai  lies

telephone  poles  and  trees  vith  tli>; 
bodies    of    persons   so    defended. 

Although    Mr.    Schuyler    iinploys 
most   of   his  extravagant    polys>lln- 
bles    in    attacking    the    pcrhon    and 
courtroom      tactics      of      Attorney 
Samuel     Lelbo»ltz,     chief     ccunsel, 
he   includes  in  his  theses  the   hap- 
py  suggestion   that    the   traditional 
"Uncle    Tom"    courtroom    leehniquc 
would     have     been     the     intelligent 
defense    snd    concludes    wit^l     the 
I  naive    assertion    that,    had    such    an 
approach      been      used      the      boys 
I  "would    each    have     been    given     a

I  when    the    eratliers    hod    gone 
j  the    boys    would    have   'Seen    turneil

Mr.  Schuyler's  article  says  in 
port: 

I     "Had     the      distinguished     chief 
counsel   l)ecn  a  really  .shrewd  law- 
yer,   he    would    have    sited    yp    the

I  Any  attempt  to  disprove  Mr 
'  .Schuylcrs  ailicle  would  be  to 
suggest  that  It  is  erroneous.  It 
isn"t  erroneous.  It":i  silly.  Although 
he  had  a  possibly  tenable  urt;u- 
nent  in  his  attack  on  Atty  Lel- 
bowitz,  his  article  bcc<ime  absurd 
when  offered  his  own  plan  of  de- 
fense. 

An    explanation    of    the    splentiid 
'  results    of    such    method.)    as    they

tion of  the  28  known  lynching^ 
during  the  past  year,  the  N.  A 
A.  C  P.  called  attention  not  only 
to  the  nearly  200  per  cent  Increase 
in  mob  murder  during  1933  from 
the  total  of  ten  during  1932,  but 
to  the  surprisingly  large  number 
of  Instances  of  apparent  collusion 
between  law  officers  and  mobs. 

■"The    lynching    record    by    states 
for     1933     Is     topped     by     Alabama 
1  with      five,     followed     by     (jcort;ia 
and     Louisiana     trtth     four     cuih; 
South      Carolina      and      TcnnesHcc 
with    three   each;    Mississippi    Ki.h 
two.      while      Florida.      Maryland. 
Missouri,  North  Carolina  and  Tex- 
•  as  each  lyiiehed  one. 
!     "The   alleged   offenses   for    which 
j  the   victims  were   lynched   arc   list- 
ed PS   murder  (81   attack   on   while 
I  woman    (3),    attempted    attack    on

I  woman   (3)   .   .   " 
I     The    policy    Mr     Schuyler    advo- 
cates Is  one  of  denial,  of  passivity, 
of    the    appeal    of    wrakocaa.    Such 
a     policy     achieves     nothing      The 
only    Instances    In     whlth     it     has 
even      beon      partially      iueicssful

I  the     more     hlghty     intelligent      To 
suppose      that      such      nn      appeal

Dear  John, 

I  found  this  swell  poem  In  a 
book  of  yours.  .  .  .  It"s  by  Lud- 
v,'lg  Lewlsohn,  Who,  ss  you  know. 
Is  the  author  of  stvcrul  hunilrcd 
books  ruoglnrt  from  pulp  paper 
westerns  to  studies  In  English 
Letters.  Incidentally,  his  later 
works  should  b<'  of  particular  In- 
terest to  the  Negro  since  many  of 
them  deal  with  the  bi-ruclal  prob- 
lem of  a  people  whose  position 
somewhat    parallels  ours:    the   Jew

hen-  of  Kenneth  Spencer,  the 
lanky  youngster  who  came  all  tlio

Cooli  iind  Harrj'  Lawrence  Free- 
man, gave  him  an  audition  Satur- 
day afternoon  and  immediately 
sta.-teil    tearing    their    hair. 

Spencer's  voice,  according  to 
Professor  Freeman,  is  a  lyric  bas- 
so, midway  bet-;vecn  that  of  a 
bn.sso  cantante  and  a  basso  pro- 
fiiniJo  They  had  to  drop  the  key 
beluw  that  of  Robeson  and  Blcd- 
siM-  for  him  to  sing  "Ol'  Man

Just  23  years  old.  Spencer   is  an

By  Catherinf)  Thater 

The  crime  of  segregation  is  committed  more  often  by 
those  who  deplore  it  than  by  those  who  are  accused  of  it 

Some  time  ago  I  was  requested  to  write  an  article  on 
this  subject — which  I  did,  favoring  it.  I  still  favor  it,  with 
qualif icntions ;  segregation  is  a  good  thing  TF: 

1. — It  will  force  Negroes  to  cease  drawing  a  color  line 
among  themselves. 

2.— It    will    compel    them    to    establish    businesses    of

WOMEN  WHO  WORK,  by  Grace  llut<hiiis. 

Women,  like  Negroes.  Miss  Hutchins  points  out  in  this 
informing  book,  are  kept  in  inferior  positions  and  pala 
lower  wages  by  employees  in  order  to  maintain  a  labor 
reserve  with  which  to  threaten  the  wages  and  standardH 
of  all  workers  in  the  Industry.  And  again,  like  N<«roei*. 
they  face  the  same  tyjie  of  discriminations.  Men  try  U>  keep 
them  out  of  certain  crafts  and  cfttimes  refuse  them  ad-

20 -YEAR  WAR  ON  LIBELOUS  FILM 


By   Nasoii  Robertwa 
HAIL  AND   FAREWELL 

TOE  reeignaUon  of  Dr.  W.  E.  B.  DuBois 
from  the  editorship  of  the  Crisis  means 
that  the  Crisis  itself  has  seen  its  last 
issue.  There  will  be  another  magazine  of 
the  same  name  in  its  place.  But  it  will 
not  be  the  same  publication. 

;  .\ny  publication  expresses  the  man 
or  men  at  its  head:  their  character,  their 
interests,  their  life.  Just  as  every  novelist 
v^Wtcs  of  himself — always,  so  every  editor 
cxprcases  himself  in  his  choice  of  material 
for  publication. 

Dr.  DuBois  brought  to  the  Crisis  tlic 
scholare  superior  grasp  of  rhetoric  and 
,-*ilology.  He  is,  without  doubt,  one  of  the 
isee's  most  dehcate  and  accurate  gram- 
lOarians.  He  has  given  us  all  a  "style 
sheet"  in  precision  and  balance  in  writing. 
He  will  be  remembered  among  newspaper- 
men as  one  who  gave  us  the  only  medium 
of  exprcs.sion  which  could  compare  with 
a«y  publication  in  the  U.  S. 
U  Meanwhile  we  examine  with  interest 
tbp  first  "Brain  Child"  of  the  new,  tem- 
porary editors. 

Wc  arc  not  surprised  by  the  increased 
^ijor  and  bellicose  tone  of  the  new  issue. 
That  is  partly  freshness  and  partly  ignor- 
ance. The  editors  have  just  taken  over  a 
new  task.  And  they  see  their  goal  without 
seeing  all  of  the  obstacles  in  their  way. 
Tliey    wiD,    however,    discover    those    ob- 
st|u;les.    We    predict    that    they    will    be 
stamped  much  more  by  them  than  they  will 
be  by  their  ambitions. 
^  The    new    magazine    should    prosper, 
"rtiere  is  need  for  a  national  organ.  If  the 
ccutors  can   supply   the   material   to  trap    j 
thfet  eerie  phantom,  "popular  taste,"  they   ' 
roxfy;  create  just  that.  j

A   SGEPTEB   CHANGE8   HANDS 

PRESJCDENT  lilNDENBURG  in  his  just- 
■^  published  "Political  Testament"  handing 
down  the  scepter  of  his  power  to  Hitler, 
ciitablishcd  the  Na7:i  leader  against  a 
background  outline  of  the  stormy  years  of 
GSwinian  politics  since  1919.  Hitler  is  crcd- 
ifed  with  having  achieved  a  united  Ger- 

rWe  nu^ht.  however,  similarly  praise 
£VB.  O'Leary's  cow  for  her  success  in  re- 
juvenating Chicago.  There  is  the  matter 
of.  method.  Thare  is  the  matter  of  cost. 
And  in  the  case  of  Hitler,  there  is  a  ques- 
tion as  to  his  success.  A  unity  which  rc- 
qoires  a  million  brown-shirta  for  its  main- 
tCBance  can  hardly  be  called  perfect. 

T  Mr.  Graham  Wallace,  who  has  studied 
tie  actions  of  masses,  has  this  to  say: 

^,  !'When  a  tsar  or  a  bureaucracy  finds 
iQftf"  "forced  to  govern  in  opposition  to  a

Maybe  they  feel  that  Ihe  race 
should  be  preserved.  I  wonder 
why? 

fc^speclally,  I  wonder  why,  on 
Thursday  nite  (when  this  is  being 
writteni  12  hours  left  Thirty 
hours  more  work.  And  everyone 
lircd  out.  I'd  give  five  hundred

The  Ued  ihasrrs  will  pri.hMbly 
make  a  lot  out  of  thai  story 
nlMiut  the  Manhattan  .Summer 
•School  for  Workers  (FEKAi 
which  allows  its  .tudents  to  have 
access.  In  its  library,  lo  such  lit- 
erature, 'among  other  books i  aa: 
The  Working  Woman  in  the 
Soviet  Union."  "Why  a  Worker's 
Daily  I'reM"  and  "What  every 
Worker  Should  Know  About  the

The  attacks  on  the  sehwil  will 
pi'obuHly  produce  a  number  of 
dixxy  ideas  Already  thry  have 
dusted  off  that  old  slogan  about 
being  "I'ro  America"  as  if  that 
mean,  anything  There  exi.^ts  In 
Ameriin  today  communistic,  so- 
cialistic, and  monarchal  settle-

with  more  oppression  than  can  be 
found  in  such  foreign  ruuntrirs 
as    G.'rninny.    It.tly    and    Louisiana 

And  how  atwut  nudism  and  that 
southern  .slate  which  passed  a 
law  through  its  legislature  to  the 
effect  that  when  two  trains  np- 
proacn  a  R  R  crossing  at  the

stop  until  one  of   them   has   passed 

Anyway,  how  can  you  be  loyal 
lu  a  geography?  You  might  be 
loyal  to  a  map.  if  you  are  that 
sort  of  a  person,  but  If  you  try 
to  be  loyal  lo  a  slogan  you  are

LOS  ANGELES  NEAR- 
LYNCH  VICTIM  IS 
CLEARED  BY  JURY 


LOS    ANGELES.    Aug     21-  <CP) 

Robert  R.  Puller,  45.  of  1516 
Easl  52nd  Street,  walked  out  of 
Los  Angeles  City  Hall  a  free  man 
after  Superior  Court  Judge  Thom- 
os  P.  White  found  him  not  guilty 
of  murder  in  the  first  degree  in 
the  slaying  of  Arthur  M.  Filiger- 
ald.  33.  in  Fullers  Pool  Hall.  la-Tt 
June 

The  defense  attorney  Frank  J. 
McCarthy,  contended  that  Futler 
shot  and  killed  Fitzgerald  in  self- 
defense  Deputy  District  Attorney 
George  Kemp,  however,  charged 
that  although  Fitzgerald  was  cre- 
ating a  diaturbance,  he  didn't 
threaten   or   attack    Fuller. 

Fuller  voluntarily  gave  himself 
up  and  turned  over  the  death  gun 
to  police  a  few  minutes  after  the 
shooting. 

At  the  inquest  June  13.  In  the 
Hall  of  Justice,  the  coroner's 
courtroom  wa.  thrown  into  a 
panic,  when  Mrs.  Emily  MarUn. 
sister  of  Filxgerald  attempted  to 
lynch  Fuller  by  throwing  a  rope 
around  hi.  neck.  She  was  as- 
.l.ned  by  two  other  si.lers.  Forty 
police  officer,  and  deputy  sher- 
iffs were  used  to  settle  the  riot, 
and  physician,  from  the  receiving 
hospital  were  busy  attending  the 
women  who  had  fainted  and  thoae 
who  had  twen  knocked  down  and 
trampled. 


WASHINGTON  -The  sixth  con- 
nectitjnal  Voung  People's  Congress 
of  the  A  M  E.  Church,  which  in- 
cludes Sunday  school  and  Chris- 
tian Endeavor  Leagues,  meeting 
here  last  week  voted  against  a 
resolution  designed  to  give  finan- 
cial aid  to  the  Scottsboro  Ixiys  ' 
and  the  Herndon  Defense  because  | 
of  timidity  and  stiff-necked  oppo- 
sition   of    ^uthern    delegates. 

Leader  of  the  opposition  was 
John  Adams,  president  of  Taine 
College.  Birmingham,  Ala.,  who 
declared  that  the  adoption  of  the 
resolution,  which  called  for  a 
recommendation  that  the  various  ' 
young  people's  organization,  of 
the  A.  M.  E  Church  set  aside  a 
"Herndon-Scottsboro  Day."  would 
result  in  more  racial  friction  in 
the    South. 

Bitterly  denouncing  "those 
Northern  people  from  the  South, 
who  pretend  to  be  astounded  at 
the  attitude  of  southern  whites, 
toward  colored  people,"  Mr.  Ad- 
ams urged  that  the  handling  of 
the  Herndon  case  be  left  in 
Georgia,  and  that  Alabama  handle 
the    Scottsboro    coive.  i 

""The   South   can   devise   the   best  ' 
ways    of    handling    their    problem.  . 
and     need     no     instructions     from 
people     of     the      North,     M>me     of 
whom   have   never   been   South  and 
dont    know    what    it  s    all    about,""  \ 
he    said. 

Authors  of  the  resolution  foOght  i 
valiantly  for  it.  but  in  vain.  They 
tried  to  show  the  advantage  of 
adopting  the  resolution,  of  placing 
themselves  on  record  aa  being  op- 
posed to  the  treatment  of  the  > 
Southern  colored  man,  whether 
the    white    |>eople    like    it   or    not.      | 

Dr  R  R  Wright,  president  of 
Wilberforce  University,  asked  that  [ 
the  ""young  people  l>e  allowed  to  I 
have  a  «ay  in  this  congreas  and  In 
the  adoption  of  these  resolutions, 
and  let  the  old  people  sit  bark, 
listen  and  take  note,"  but  was 
overruled.  i 


NEW  YORK.  Aug  17  Although 
the  Mississippi  Supreme  Court 
bad  ruled  thai  ""a  mans  house  is 
his  castle'"  and  had  reversed  the 
conviction  of  a  man  accused  of 
killing  a  deputy  sheriff  who 
sought  to  arrest  him  without  a 
warrant,  a  Mississippi  mob 
thought  differently.  "Tiding""  two 
men,  Robert  Jones  and  Smith 
Houey,  from  officers  who  were 
escorting  them  to  the  court  house 
to  stand  trial  for  a  second  time, 
the  killers,  amid  the  usual  gleeful 
gestures.  hung  their  victims, 
bringing  the  rate  of  lynchlngs  in 
the  United  States  since  June  1  to 
more   than    one    a   week. 

Followring  these  lynchings  at 
Ashland,  a  wire  from  the  N.  A.  A. 
C.   P.    lo   President    Roosevelt  said: 

"Two  lynchings  in  Mississippi 
yesterday  bring  the  total  for  the 
year  lo  14  with  six  of  this  total 
from  Mississippi  alone.  Twelve  of 
the  1934  lynchings  have  taken 
place  since  it  kwcame  apparent 
Chat  Congress  was  not  to  enact  a 
federal  anti-lyncbing  law  during 
its  closing  days.  Lynchings  in  the 
United  States  since  June  1  have 
been  at  the  rate  of  more  than 
one   a   week. 

The    parade    of    Imld    mob    mur- 

I  ders  since  June  1  la  lurthar  proof 

!  of   our   contention    that    the    ■itataa 

are    unwilling    or    unable    lo    chcok 

^  Ijmching   and    that    the    only    raetli- 

od    left    is    the    invocation    of    the 

power    of    the    federal    govemmant 

to   rid  our   nation  of  lynching  law. 

We   urge   again    that   you    insist   at 

the    opening   of    the    new    Congrcaa 

upon    the    passage   of    federal    aati- 

lynching    legislation." 

A  second  telegram  from  the  N. 
A.  A.  C.  P  office  addreased  to 
Governor  Sennett  Cbnner  of  Mlaa- 
Issippi    said: 

"Double  lynching  at  Michigan 
City.  Mi.isiuippi  yesterday  brings 
total  lynchings  for  year  to  14  of 
which  Mississippi  has  accounted 
for  six.  W'e  do  not  of  course  ex- 
pect to  hear  from  you  on  these 
lynchings  nor  do  we  expect  Mis-

them. "

l^es.  Wilder  were  the  stars  of  the 
program.  King  and  Ledford  spent 
the  following  week  at  Isleton. 
They  were  accompanied  by  their 
better  halves.  We  learn  they  were 
trying  to  avoid  the  dog  houaa. 
Their  special  diet  was  milk-fed 
striped  bass  twice  a  day.  The  boys 
dropped  in  on  Cousin  Charles 
Roper  for  a  minute  and  cousin 
threw  a  cocktail  party.  He  told 
the    boys    not    to    return    for    an- 


Grant  greeting  him  with  a  healthy 
triple  to  right.  Sharkey  then 
punched  over  the  wTnning  marker

5th  hit  qf  the  day.  Arthur,  the  Bth 
man  to  face  Ernie,  rolled  out  to 
end  the  big  inning.  The  Elks  saw 
Golphln  neach  first  on  a  wide

ASSEMILYMAN  WILLIAM  F. 

KNOWLAND 

STATE  SENATOR 

(DISTRICT    INfXl'DBfl   ALL 
OF      ALAMEDA      COUNTY) 

PRIMARY  AUGUST  28.  19Si 


The  following  let- 
ter was  written  to 
Mr.  Leon  Washing- 
ton, who  like  many 
others  deserted  the 
ranks  of  Republican- 
ism for  a  more  dem- 
ocratic effort. 

The  letter  gives  us 
a  highlight  on  the 
man  we  choose  for 
the  next  governor  of 
California.  As  we  al- 
ready know  Mr.  Em- 
mett  J.  Scott  held  a 
responsible  position 
during  the  war.  And 
an  endorsement  from 
such  an  eminent  au- 
thority proves  beyond 
a  doubt  that  this  great 
crusader  will  always  be 
sympathetically  mindful 
of  our  problems. 


THESE  ALAMEDA  COUNTY  OFFICIALS  HAVE  SERe  YOU  WELL 


Mr.  L«en  Waahington 
THE    SENTINEL 
97S   EUut   Vernon   Avenue 
Los    Angeles,   California 

Dear   Mr.   Waahington: 

1  beg  to  advlae  In  answer 
to  your  telegraphic  Inquiry  of 
August  l(Rh.  that  Mr  George 
Creel,  as  Director  of  Public 
Information  during  the  World 
War.  impartially  and  most 
helpfully  cooperated  with  me 
while  serving  as  Special  As- 
sistant to  the  Secretary  of 
War  to  overcome  some  of  the 
unhnppy  conditions  of  that 
period,  and  sought  to  pre- 
serve a  morale  among  the 
colored  people  of  the  United 
StaUs.  I  owe  much  during 
that  period  to  his  unfailing 
and   courteous   cooperation. 

An  Incident  of  more  than 
slight  Importance  was  his 
help  In  arranging  for  a  meet- 
ing   of    the    editors    of    out- 


standing colored  newspapers 
and  magazines,  and  leaders 
of  the  colored  people  here  in 
Washington,  for  a  three-day 
session  discussing  with  Mr 
Creel  him.self  and  various 
members  of  the  Cabinet,  the 
conditions  which  were  inter- 
fering with  the  whole-souled 
cooperation  of  the  colored 
people  in  winning  the  World 
War 

Also,  Mr.  Creel,  upon  re- 
quest, made  all  of  the  ar- 
rangements for  Dr  W  E.  B. 
DuBois,  representing  the  Na- 
tional Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored  People, 
and  Dr.  Robert  A.  Moton  and 
Mr.  Lester  A.  Walton  of  the 
New  York  Age.  to  go  to  Paris 
following  the  Armistice,  to 
exert  whatever  Influence  they 
could  at  the  Peace  Confer- 
ence 

I  can  say.  with  entire 
truthfulness.  I  do  not  now 
recall  a  single  instance  in 
connection  with  the  numerous 
matters  I  was  constantly 
compelled  to  put  before  him, 
that  he  did  not  exert  him- 
self to  the  uttermost  to  help. 
Very  truly  yours. 
(stgnt>d)  Bmmett  J.  Scott 


Therefore,  on  election  dav  rally  to  the  polls  and  cast 
your  vote  for— GEXDRGE  CREEL— Governor  of  Calif. 

Gratefully  and  sincerely, 
W.  J.  Wilson,  Pres.  Wm.  Byron  Rumford.  Secty.

THESE  TMO  WE  KNOW 

||OR  those  who  wish  to  be  gwded  by  ita 
judgment.  The  Spokesman  recommends 
Mr.  F'rod  E.  Stewart,  candidate  for  the 
!9tate  Hoard  ut  I<^)uallKation,  district  No. 
2.  and  JuiIk*"  Sylvatn  J.  Lai^arus,  candi- 
date i'ur  tUf  .Sufjerior  Court,  Department 
X 

Mr.  Stewai-t  has  for  many  years  shown 
impartial  friendship  for  the  Negro.  Nor 
has  his  friendship  ever  been  condescen- 
tion.  Many  people  remember  an  incident 
during  the  World  War  when  Mr.  Stewart, 
who  was  then  in  charge  of  the  State  Belt 
JL  R.  told  some  80  white  workers,  who 
objected  to  working  with  the  Negroes  he 
had  employed,  that  they  could  either 
work  with  the  Negroes  or  quit. 

,  As  appointed  head  of  the  second  dis- 
trict S.  B.  O.  E.  Mr.  Stewart  has  given 
three  Negroes  positions  of  highest  res- 
ponsibility in  his  organization.  He  was 
also  instrumental  in  the  appointment  of 
two  others  in  the  southern  part  of  the 
9tate. 

These  things  are,  of  course,  particulars 
of  interest  to  our  people.  Mr.  Stewart  is 
known  generally  as  an  extraordinarily 
aMe  man.  At  Sacramento,  in  1933,  he  in- 
flated that  the  pubhc  utilities  corpora- 
tk>as  were  not  paying  their  fairshare  of 
the  tax  burden,  and  largely  through  his 
unaided  effort  were  those  companies  made 
to  pay  $6,000,000  more  during  the  cur- 
rent biennium  than  they  had  in  the  pre- 
ceding ope.  His  influence  in  the  State 
Board  in  administrating  liquor  control  has 
been  responsible  for  most  of  that  body's 
stability  and  progress. 

Judge  Lazarus  is  known  to  San  FYan- 
dacans  for.  his  honesty,  fairness,  fine 
gnsp  of  the  law,  and  deep  sympathy  and 
understanding.  His  long  and  splendid  rec- 
ord as  judge  in  the  police  court  is  his 
highest  recommendation.  Recently,  his 
btbulce  and  sanity  in  the  face  of  strong 
pressure  brought  against  him  in  the  in- 
fSdent    of    the    Vigilantes    and    the    Red 


i>care  was  a  splendid  example  of  the  man's 
strength  and  faith  in  the  American  insti- 
tuticn  of  justice  and  the  right  of  free 
i'.peech. 

No  Negro  is  unaware  of  the  impor- 
tance of  such  characteristics  in  the  men 
..lio  adniiniHter  the  law. 

'l'hi-i:e  twii  have  pix)ven  themselves  able 
offi«;ialB  and  honest  men.  They  deserve 
your  vote.

ALCATRAZ  ISLAND  AND  DIXIE 

THE  arrival  of  43  prisoners  at  Alcatraz 
■  Island  makes  timely  a  truth  that  Has  long 
since  become  axiomatic  among  criminals: 
"Don't  break  Federal  laws." 

The  Federal  poUce  are  not  hampered 
by  red  tape,  political-criminal  affiliations 
or  the  limitations  of  state  boundary  lines. 
They  will  trail  a  single  criminal  for  years, 
and  they  almost  always  "Get  their  man." 

This  reputation  is  the  finest  theft  in- 
surance. It  explains  the  few  robberies  of 
Post  Offices  and  other  Federal  projects, 
as  compared  to  the  relatively  wholesale 
criminal  levies  on  private  enterprise. 

Kidnapping  threatened  to  become  a 
national  disaster  until  the  Lindbergh 
tragedy  precipitated  congressional  legis- 
lation making  such  crimes  a  Federal  of- 
fense. 

No  one  who  is  acquainted  with  the 
operation  of  "Justice"  in  the  south  is  not 
aware  of  the  ineffectiveness  of  locally  fi- 
nanced, locally  controlled  police  depart- 
ments. Some  of  them  are  no  more  than 
the  official  expression  of  the  character 
and  prejudices  of  the  people  of  the  com- 
munity. . 

The  Costigan-Wagner  Anti-Lynching 
bill,  which  would  make  lynching  and  such 
crimes  a  Federal  offense  has  still  to  be 
I>assed  through  congress.  We  cannot  relax 
imtil  it  is  made  a  law — until  we  know  that 
the  perpetrators  of  such  crimes  would  im- 
mediately join  Mr.  Capone  and  his  notor- 
ious companions  on  California's  "DeVil's 
Island." 

Alcatraz  Island  may  house  some  un- 
desirable neighbors.  But  it  is  an  interest- 
ing symbol  and  reminder.

In  the  heart  of  Harlem.  The  deal,  Policing 
which  i*  considered  one  of  the 
largest  real  estate  transacUona 
made  in  Harlem  in  several 
months,  was  cousummatea  when 
the  EViuitable  Ufe  Insurance  as- 
sofiaUon  transferred  the  property 
to  the  pre&ent  owners.  The  deal 
was  handled  by  Henry  S.  Warner, 
former  grand  commissioner  of  the 
IBPOEW,  George  E.  Hayes,  atty., 
who  personally  supervised  the  in- 
terests of  Mrs.  Wilson  in  the  deal, 
William  C.  Hueston,  commissioner 
of  education,  IBPOEW,  John  B. 
Nail,  associate  broker.  It  is  un- 
derstood that  the  Wilsons  will 
occupy  living  quarters  in  the  new 
p^oper^■  as  Finley  contemplates 
running  for  congress  from  the 
21st  district.  It  is  said  that  a 
printing  plant  will  be  established 
where  a  daily  paper  and  fraternal 
paper   will   be   printed. 


The  above  will  make  interest- 
ing reading  for  the  rank  and  file 
who  have  been  contributing  to 
the  grand  lodge  fund  through  the 
medium  of  the  $1.00  per  head  per 
capita  tax.  It  is  a  most  pleasant 
thing  to  know  that,  in  a  decade 
as  Grand  E!xalted  Ruler  of  the 
IBPOEW,  the  present  head  has 
been  able  to  accomplish  what  his 
predecessors  were  unable  to  do. 
But  then:  His  predecessors  were 
cast  In  the  mold  of  fraternal 
loyalty  rather  than  exploitation. 
If  we  recall  the  names  of  those 
men,  who  headed  the  organization 
during  our  membership  we  and 
whose  unselfish  devotion  to  the 
Order  placed  it  on  the  pinacle

Dear    .lohn. 

It  srenM  we  can  write  thirty  on 
the  cat  series  The  family  ha:, 
suditenly  ceased  being  a  group  of 
five  kittens  and  become  a  mys- 
tery Friday  night  we  left  them 
I  ontcntedly  gnawing  at  Nick'. 
pnntM  leg  and  Monday  morning 
A'e  find  them  completely  and  en- 
Itrcly  Komewhfre  else  The  only 
•  lue.  that  were  found  were  two 
Uiiawed  iwrkchop  booei,  and  u 
note  which  read  "Horse.hoe  Club 
IJHiiee     .  .VX)         .     .     2x3    .     .    . 

lOpt    L    F  "  It  look,  like  a  crypto- 
gram  to   me. 

Nixon  wa.  the  first  one  Into 
tbe  office  He  discovered  the 
tragedy.  Although  he  felt  that  the 
only  proper  gesture  In  such  a  .11- 
uatlon  was  to  faint,  or  al  least 
to  wring  out  one  of  thoM  deep- 
chested  sobs  a.  Romeo  did  when 
he  saw  his  girl  friend  .tretched 
nut  neat  and  tidy  on  a  .lab  In 
the  family  .epulchre.  he  could  do 
neither.  He  didn't  know  how  to 
faint,  and  he  had  a  cold.  So  he 
went  across  the  street  and  called 
for  volunteers 

A  Mrs  Agnes  Hipplrbottom. 
housewife,  obliged.  She  pulled  a 
beautiful  faint;  according  to  Nick 
On   the   davenport. 

With  the  scene  thus  pro|>crly 
1*1.  the  next  step  could  he  taken 
A  police  call  wa*  sent  in  and 
telegrams  dispatched  tn  P  h  1 1  o 
Vance.  Ellerj-  Queen,  Nick  Charles 
and  Charlie  Chan  Two  hours  lat- 
er a  radio  dispatch  car  raced  up 
and  disgorged  five  pollrrmen  and 
n  staff-photographer  from  the 
United  Press  The  policemen  im- 
mediately broke  in  Ihr  front  door 
of  the  house  next  donr  and  ar- 
rested everyone  in  it  b<fore  thry 
discovered  that  they  had  the 
wrong  number.  A  hearty  laugh 
was  had  by  all  while  the  victims 
were  being  bandaged   up 

We  were  put  in  rather  an  cm- 
harrassing  position  by  the  fact 
that  Mrs.  Alleycat  was  not  around 
to  pose  for  the  photographer  reg- 
iMerlng  grief  A.  a  matter  of  fact 
Mr..  Alleycat  hadn't  come  home 
yet  from  the  party  o  fthe  night 
before  As  a  matter  of  further 
fad  Mrs  Alleycat  ha.  proven  ber- 
Mlf  the  most  depraved  wanton 
you  ever  uw  Rhea  up  all  night 
Every  night  She  spend,  all  her 
lime  in  a  Bu.h  Street  backyard 
throwing  money  at  a  blond  tenar 
named  Tom  Downey  .So  with 
none  of  the  iirlnctpals  ftreeent  (wc 
tried  to  get  in  touch  with  the 
father  but    nothing    cam*    of 

that  rxoepl  thtit  srvoial  taineut<i 
were  known  to  have  hastily  de- 
parted for  parts  unknown  at  first 
mention  of  an  InviKtigatlom  wi 
were  compelled  to  work  with  the 
few  slim  clues  at   hand 

Thus  far  we  ran  report  but  lit- 
tle progress  InvrstlgBlors  found 
a  woman's  body  down  the  Sky- 
line Boulevard,  and  a  man  in 
Tampa.  Florida,  committed  sui- 
cide by  sitting  in  a  hornets  nest 
but  it  Is  not  believed  that  these 
findings  have  any  bearing  on  the 
case    in    hand 

The  most  Interesting  due  thus 
far  brought  to  light  is  a  poem 
which  was  nritten  by  young  <<Hr- 
relt    Pittnian    Alleycat: 

HI'RIILRVA.    WimiLKVA. 

What  doth  Walter  SVinchell   say 
In    his    neat    and    precise    way 
Of    the    doings    on    Broadway 
The   guys    and    gals    who    come    to 

play 
Who    "renovate"  or  get   "that  way" 
About    each    other.    Everyday

"Christ's  Mind  for  Times  Like 
These,"  will  be  the  subject  Rev  H. 
T.  S.  Johnson  of  Taylor  Memorial 
will  discuss  next  Sunday  morning. 
It  will  be  Labor  Sunday  and  also 
Communion  Sunday.  The  message 
will,  therefore,  point  to  the  ideals 
of  Jesus,  crystalized  in  and  em- 
phasized by  the  Cross  of  Calvary, - 
as   the    things    that    must    be    made 


A  .Message  to  Labor"  will  be 
ihe  theme  nf  discu.Hsion  Sunday 
.-:iorning  The  present  time  is  most 
favorable  for  the  cause  of  organ- 
ized labor.  It  is  hooed  that  the 
brothernood  01  me  laboring  man 
'.vl.ich  is  a  fundamental  principle 
of  the  labor  movement  w-ill  no 
long.r  be  interpreted  to  exclude 
t  iie    Negro. 

The  summer  vacation  is  rapidly 
coming  to  an  end.  All  departments 
of  the  church  are  t>eginning  to 
stir  with  renewed  activity.  The 
Parochial  chapter  met  last  Thurs- 
day and  mapped  out  its  work  for

neet  next  Tuesday  for  the  same 
purpose  The  Bazaar  committee 
will  meet  at  the  same  time  to 
make  final  arrangements  for  the

practical  before  the  conflict  be- 
tween capital  and  labor  shall 
cease  and  peaceful  relations  ob- 
tain among  the  various  social 
classes  and  racial  groups  of  the 
world.  In  the  evening,  the  thought 
on  labor  and  the  mind  of  Christ, 
will  l>e  continued  under  the  cap- 
tion;  The   Work   of  Our  Hands. 

The       inter-denominational      and 
interracial    outdoor    vespers   of    the 
Epworth     League,     at     Leona 
Heights,    last    Sunday    was    a    most 
enjoyable     aa     well     as     profitable 
service.    The   service   was    prepared 
to   emphasize   God    in    nature   and.  i 
on   a  hill   top  with  the   setting  sun 
in   plain   view,  adding  to  the   beau-  , 
ty  of  adjacent  scenes,   it   was  easy  , 
to    recognize    God's     presence    and 
to   really    worship.    Aside    from    the  i 
spiritual   feast  there  was  an   abun- 
dance   of    food.

Book  of  One- Act  Plays 
Clever  but  Depressing 

••six  PUy«  for  a  Niigro  Thntor"  by  Randolph  Edmonds 
Tbmt:  ifl  something  terribly,  terribly  depressing  about 
tbew  six  one-act  plays.  It  is  as  if  the  hfe  of  the  Negro  in 
this  coontry  werp  one  unrelieved  tragedy  wherein  no  ray 
of. hope  penetrated  and  no  laughter  resounded — a  Ufe  of 
tragic  and  unending  defeat.  There  is  of  course  tragedy 
aptetity  in  the  conditions  to  which  Mack  folk  in  this  coun- 
trj'  are  bom;  but  there  is  also  song  and  laughter  and 
gaiety.

and  then  the  next  moment  be  cold.  ...  It  seems  that  the 
greater  the  demonstraUon  of  affecUon  at  the  outset,  the 
less  in  the  end.  .  .  .  The  wonder  to  women  is  why  men  grow

POLITICAL  RETROSPECT 

lUE  HAVE  Just  concluded  what  many 
^f«el  was  the  most  momentous  primary 
AiuUon  the  State  has  ever  held.  For  the 
lltlfro  in  the  Bay  District,  nothing  tran- 
tiflUKSA  of  a  revolutionary  nature,  but 
Mlide  from  the  rather  well  organized 
IJgpiocratic  organizations  among  Negroes, 
vvlMch  were  attached  to  the  Creel  and 
W»rdell  camps,  and  went  down  in  the 
S^JQcSair  landslide,  there  were  a  few  indi- 
cations of  a  tendency  on  the  part  of 
II|e(tX}  voters  to  take  themselves  more 
aprlously.  While  it  is  perhaps  too  much  to 
wy  that  he  has  become  of  age  politically, 
iti^toes  appear  thjit  the  Negro  electorate  in 
t|i$dM  parts  is  seriously  trying  to  "put  on 
l)is ;  first  pair  of  long  pants"  and  in  so 
dffiffg  is  experiencing  some  of  the  same 
cWtaarrassments  that  go  with  such  an  oc- 

mmon. 

...It  is  true  we  have  always  been  and 
still  are  "blessed"  with  a  few  political 
'Wig  Shots"  of  the  old  school  who  purport 
tpr.  hold  the  Negro  vote  in  the  palm  of 
t|i|eir  hands,  but  in  the  past  the  efforts 
(tf-these  master-minds  have  resulted  in 
Utile  or  DO  good  for  the  racial  group  so 
0tr"a8  political  recpgnition  goes.  This 
eftjCtion  was  no  exception.  The  tendencies 
tgl/fstrd  poUtical  maturity  however  slight 
ttgBy  may  be,  seem  to  be  found  in  the 
fltforts  made  to  actually  acquaint  the 
nMUHKS  with  the  numerous  candidates  and 
Ijbfir  platforms. 

^■-:  Around  election  time  candidates  make 
no  secret  of  desire  to  meet  and  contact 
q^  many  prospective  voters  as  possible; 
Vtd  certainly  if  voters  are  to  make  in- 
teUi^nt  use  of  the  ballot  they  should  be 
deeirouB  of  hearing  the  candidates,  or  in 
HHne  way  acquaint  themselves  with  the 
ivpies.  In  most  cases  however,  the  desire 
of  the  candidate  to  be  heard  far  exceeds 
Hk  detire  of  the  voters  to  hear.  It  thus 
IS  found  advisable  to  attract  voters  to 
m^Kings  where  candidates  may  set  forth 
ttdr  platforms.  Because  of  this  lethargy 
oa  the  part  of  voters,  the  candidate  is  at 
ifft  mercy  of  those  persons  who  for  some 
mpaon  or  other  can  attract  voters  to  a 
■IBtral  meeting  i^ace.  Frequently  the 
<pfice  seeker  must  pay  a  tribute  for  the 
^vil^e  of  presenting  himself  to  this 
flKOUp  or  that  group  that  have  been  got- 
tan  together.  In  the  East  Bay  area  a 
yriiekMB  practice  is  indulged  in  by  some  of 
tiw  race's  political  big-shots.  Candidate 
after  candidate  has  complained  of  being 
MU  that  it  would  cost  him  $5  to  appear 
Wrore  a  certain  organization.  This  money 
Wf  aaid  to  be  for  expenses  incident  to  the 
IMtHiHng.  The  fact  that  the  meetings  in 
case  are  held  in  a  public  school  con- 
even  the  unlettered,  that  someone 
is  •eonunercializing  at  the  expense  of  pub- 
IIb  good  will. 

Tf.  Some  justifiable  criticism  has  also  been 
greeted  toward  certain  reputable  Negro 
Ijjgaiiintiona  whose  practice  is  to  give 
i^iaMikUtes  dinpen"  around  election 
tttoas.  Caadidatea  are  invited  to  come, 
pirdiase  dinners  and  present  their  plat- 
tmtbM  either  during  the  repast  or  immedi- 
iM^lfy  thereafter.  On  these  occasions  only 
■■ifew  members  of  the  organization  spon- 
MBtaf  the  dinner  are  on  hand  and  can- 
flUlBtes  present  ttieir  platforms,  princi- 
jM^  to  each  other;  a  situation  of  doubt- 
jwi  political  value  to  the  candidates  and 
Jlpninly  not  calculated  to  impress  the 
~  itt  ot  the  poUtical  seriousness  or 
of  the  sponsoring  group.  In 
one  (ets  the  impreasion  that  these 
ites  dinners  ars  primarily  for  the 
of  raising  a  little  money  for  a 
cause.  Many  candidates  cannot 
to  thus  waste  their  time  and 
Mod  to  a  dMck  to  cover  the  cost 
ttdwt  mailed  to  them,  and  thus 
belag  accused  of  being  unsympa- 
U  these  orgmiatlons  are  sincere- 
tn  having  their  membership 
poUtieally,  some  plan  should 
to  fK  a  repreaentative  number 
jftHHIwlli  it  would  teem  advisable  tt> 
'ryiVk  tbets  amir*. 
c^  «|  Im|w  conaa  from  the  fact 
oisattaga  wew  sponsored 
that  iMrs  repreaentative 


the  auBjiioes  of  the  Independent  Forerun- 
ucrj,  at  the  Elks  Home  in  Oakland.  In 
Ih.s  ca.'jc  Uic  supix)rt  of  all  repreaentative 
i'tizcns  and  inlci-ested  groups  was  en- 
listed, to  the  end  that  a  record  crowd  was 
on  hand  at  an  early  hour.  Many  Candi- 
da'cs  unhesitatingly  expressed  the  behef 
that    this    was    the    best    political    mass 

acting  of  iU  kind  held  by  any  group 
lius  year.  No  favoritism  was  shown  and 
:)o  attempt  was  made  to  commercialize. 
-l>c    meeting    was    ab|y    conducted    and 

hv3c  who  listened  received  information 
that  must  have  aided  them  when  they 
voted  the  following  day. 

Politically,  the  average  American  is  a 
iong  way  from  an  adult,  and  it  does  seem 
that  there  are  indications  that  we,  as  a 
group  arc  trying  to  get  out  of  the  adol- 
escent class.

Scare  and  examine  it  with  the  clarity 
that  ^orncs  with  perspective,  it  might  be 
well  to  sum  up  at  this  point  what  wc 
have  done  and  examine  our  methods  be- 
fore we  go  ahead. 

Of  one  thing  we  can  be  quite  certain: 
the  anti-communistic  tactics  recently  em- 
ployed; those  of  breaking  up  the  meeting 
places,  destroying  papers,  and  jailing  the 
agitators,  is  quite  futile.  This  is  wholly 
aside  from  this  legality  or  morahty.  Merely 
examined  from  the  viewpoint  of  effective- 
ness it  is  a  failure. 

You  cannot  destroy  an  idea.  Nor  can 
you  arrest  its  dissemination  and  accep- 
tanc(>  either  through  legislation,  oppres- 
sion, or  persuasion.  Its  acceptance  or  re- 
fusal is  dependant  on  conditions  entirely 
foreign  to  such  methods. 

We've  had  millions  of  ideas  wtiich 
have  been  tried  and  discarded  by  a  world 
vhich  either  outgrew  them  or  found  them 
iilapplicablc  or  untimely.  The  most  recent 
of  these  was  the  idea  of  technocracy. 

We've  had  other  ideas  which  survived 
every  attempt  to  stamp  them  out. 

h)  the  year  399  B.  C.  Socrates,  a 
skeptic  logician  of  Greece,  organized  a 
school  of  philosophy.  Socrates  was  killed 
,'^or  his  teachings.  Yet,  Socratic  dialectics 
is  today  a  fundamental  of  all  reasoning 
thought. 

Two  thousand  Christians  died  in 
Rome's  attempt  to  arrest  the  spread  of 
the  "Rebellious  and  disintegrating"  idea 
of  Christianity. 

Roger  Bacon,  a  Franciscan  monk  of 
(he  13th  century  spent  much  of  his  adult 
life  in  jail  because  he  held  the  idea  that: 
"Machines  for  navigating  are  possible 
without  powers,  so  that  great  ships  suited 
to  river  or  ocean,  guided  by  one  man, 
may  be  borne  with  greater  speed  than  if 
they  were  full  of  men.  Likewise  cars  may 
be  made  so  that  without  a  draught  ani- 
mal they  may  be  moved  cum  impetu  in- 
aestimabili,  as  we  deem  the  scythed  char- 
iota  to  have  been  from  which  antiquity 
Inught.  And  flying  machines  are  possible, 
so  that  a  man  may  sit  in  the  middle 
tui'Tiing  some  device  by  which  artificial 
wings  may  beat  the  air  in  the  manner  of 
a   flying^  bird." 

America  and  France  are  monuments  to 
the  superiority  of  an  idea  over  any  and 
all  physical  force  which  might  be  brought 
against  it. 

You  cannot  destroy  an  Idea  by  such 
methods. 

The  theory  of  Communism  or  any 
other  theory  will  suceed  or  fail  within 
itself.  Its  success  or  failure  is  determined 
by  its  essential  truth  coupled  with  its 
timeliness. 

A  good  idea  presented  to  a  contented 
people  may  not  be  considered.  Conversely 
a  bad  idea  presented  to  a  discontented 
people  may  quickly  become  the  popular 
politk^al  creed.  Witness  Germany  for  an 
example. 

Mr.  H.  G.  Wells  writing  on  this  matter, 
said,  "Men  do  not  act  upon  theories.  It  is 
always  some  real  danger,  some  practical 
necessity  that  produces  action;  and  it  is 
only  after  action  has  destroyed  old  rela- 
tionships and  produced  anew  and  perplex- 
ing states  of  affairs." 

In  that  is  the  reason  for  Communism's 

growth  in   the   U.   S.   And   in   that   is   a 

fiugges^pn  for  the  method  of  its  defeat.

'"there  are  more  happy  single  women  than  married 
ones,"  says  Dr.  Mary  O'Malley,  the  only  wominiciftiical 
director  in  mental  dlseasi'S  in  this  country.  "The  happily 
married  woman  is  much  the  happier  of  the  two,  but  there 
seem  to  be  fewer  happily  married  women  than  there  arc 
happy  single  ones." 

is  thi."?  true?  A  single  worhan  has  more  freedom  of 
movement,  fewer  demands  on  her  time  and  interest,  fewer 
compromises    to    make     When    shc^  •  »

CmP-ON-THE-SHOlILDER   CHILDREN 

By  Bessie  Mack 
THE  vacation  season  has  passed  and  all 
'  ftMida  trod  by  young  feet  in  the  early 
morning  converge  u|x)n  one  central  ixjint 
— the  school  nx»m.  Negro  |>arent8,  north, 
^ast  and  west  who  have  fuUy  resolved  to 
-ce  to  it  that  their  children  be  accorded 
Uieir  full  rights  from  Nordic  teachers  and 
pupils  alike  should  take  a  little  time  out  to 
soe  if  they  have  instilled  into  their  off- 
•ipring  those  principles  which  will  tend  to 
make  them  give  as  much  as  they  hope  to 
receive. 

Unfortunately  fo  rthe  Negro  child,  he 
is  usually  sent  to  school  with  a  chip  on 
his  shoulder  —  a  chip  which  has  been 
placed  there  by  an  over-zealous  parent. 
He  generally  enters  the  school  yard  look- 
ing for  insult,  abuse  and  discrimination  ; 
because  his  parents  have  informed  him 
that  he  will  find  such  and  it  has  been 
proven  that  one  usually  gets  what  one 
expects  in   any  walk   of  life. 

He  enters  the  classroom  feverishly 
searching  for  the  rights  which  he  has 
been  told  to  stand  up  for  and  as  a  result 
he  is  discourteous,  insolent  and  touchy. 
All  of  which  shows  upon  the  report  card 
and  causes  papa  and  mamma  to  bristle 
with   unrighteous  indig^iation. 

To  face  facts  bluntly,  the  Negro  jmr- 
ent  is  the  unwilling  cause  of  so  many  so- 
called  "problem  children"  in  the  colored 
ranks  of  mixed  schools,  north  and  west. 

On  the  other  hand,  if  parents  would 
look  at  the  matter  in  a  dispassionate  light 
and  explain  inteUigently  to  their  children 
what  is  exijected  of  them — and  why — the 
little  ones  would  find  the^  several  ways 
much  smoother  as  they  climb  the  educa- 
tional ladder  via  the  mixed  school.  They 
should  be  taught  to  command  respect  and 
justice  rather  than  demand  them.  It  is 
not  enough  that  they  be  always  as  clean 
and  as  neat  and  as  prompt  as  the  average 
white  child;  they  should  strive  to  have 
sU  of  these  qualities  in  the  superlative 
dejjree. 

The  Negro  pupil  who  does  nbt  feel 
ihat  he  suffers  on  account  of  his  color  is 
the  one  whose  parents  make  frequent 
visits  to  the  classroom  and  who  show  by 
iheir  actions  that  their  one  desire  is  to 
cooperate  with  the  teachers  for  the  great- 
»«t  good  of  the  child;  they  are  those 
whose  parents  talk  to  the  teachers  and 
not  the  child  when  they  feel  that  all  is 
n^t  fair  on   the  educational  front. 

Let  every  Negro  parent  remember  that 
the  souls  of  their  children  can  never  be 
enslaved  save  by  their  own  infirmities; 
Bor^freed  save  by  their  very  strength  and 
owiL.  resolve  and  constant  vision  and  su- 
preme endeavor.  If  they  would  be  free 
indeed,  and  enjoy  "happy  school  days" 
.  literally,  they  must  be  taught  to  endeavor 
ib\  be  always  courteous,  smiling,  unbur- 
deiied  with  chips-on-the-shoulder  and  nev- 
er on  the  defensive  prematurely.

HIIEY   DOES   rS   A   FAVOR 
By  William  Pickens 

I  AM  AFRAID  that  many  people,  even 
colored  people,  do  not  get  the  signifi- 
cance of  Huey  Long's  present  "labors"  in 
Uouisiana.  He  is  a  product  of  the  system 
Invented  to  disfranchise  and  decitizenize 
the  weak.  Having  got  rid  of  the  weak,  the 
"Htrorg"  have  now  divided  into  factions 
and  each  faction  is  trying  to  get  hold  of 
the  tricky  weapon  which  they  forged  to 
use  against  the  weak :  namely,  the  machin- 
ery of  "registration"  and  "primaries"  con- 
trol. 

They  know,  for  example,  that  which- 
ever side  controls  registration  and  pri- 
mary voting  is  unbeatable.  How  do  they 
know  it?  Because  they  made  their  new 
"conatitution"  and  sham  law  so  that  they 
ooold  disfranchise  any  colored  person  in 
Louisiana  from  a  university  graduate  to  a 


field  hand. 

The  tricky  system  which  they  set  up 
would  make  it  legally  possible  for  them  to 
listranchise  Franklin  Delano  Roosevelt 
and  all  his  family  and  cabinet. 

That  is  why  I  am  i-ooting  for  Huey;  he 
is  doing  what  of  course  he  does  not  mean

'.vhicli  he  and  the  others  have  created. 

Now  that  they  have  downed  and  oust- 
ed the  weak,  each  faction  among  the 
sti-ong  is  afraid  for  the  opposing  faction 
to  get  possession  of  the  deadly  weapon 
which  they  together  have  forged  against 
the  weak. 

Huey  is  not  even  satisfied  with  the 
tricks  invented  to  use  against  colored,  he 
has  had  two  or  three  dozen  other  bills 
passed  by  the  legislature  to  make  sure  of 
hog-tieing  his  opposing  whites.  He  seems 
to  have  Louisiana  by  the  tail  with  a  down- 
hill pull. 

There  are  other  states,  Alabama,  Mis- 
sissippi. Georgia,  South  Carolina,  who 
have  similar  "pet  monsters"  in  their  sys- 
tem of  law  which  may  some  day  be  turned 
against  any  efforts  they  make  for  reform. 
Just  now,  however,  Louisiana  seems  about 
to  hit  the  political  bottom  in  America,  as 
it  long  held  educational  bottom  in  both  its 
white  and  its  colored  populations.

FATHER    DIVINE    AND   SOCIETY 

HYPOCRITES 

By  Eugene  D.  Johnson 

IT  is  A  traditional  American  custom  for 
Negroes  to  be  segregated  by  white  peo- 
ple; therfcfore  we  should  not  be  surprised 
•n  the  least  when  they  practice  it.  But 
^vlieii  Negroes  begin  to  segregate  tfteir 
lellowmen,  it  is  time  for  every  Negro  to 
6it  up  and  ask,  "Can  it  really  be  true?" 
And  if  it  is  true,  we  all  should  revive  the 
old  saying  and  get  down  in  sackcloth  and 
ashes. 

I'rotests  from  "Strivers  Row''  resi- 
dents against  Father  EHvine  and  his  fol- 
lowers prove  beyond  a  reasonable  doubt 
that  Negroes  are  segregated  by  each 
other  as  well  as  by  white  people.  When  a 
v/hite  person  segregates  »  Negro,  there 
always  is  talk  of  the  Constitution  being 
violated. 

These  protests  from  "Strivem  Row" 
remind  me  of  something  which  is  of  para- 
mount importance  to  Negroes  everywhere. 
When  people  object  to  the  cooking  of 
fjiareribs  and  fricasee  chicken,  it  partly 
verifies  the  general  belief  that  they  do 
not  eat  substantial  food. 

I  am  afraid  these  complaints  are  com- 
ing from  a  group  of  meddlers  and  busy- 
bodies,  who  takes  pride  in  sowing  strife 
and  discord  among  their  neighbors;  or  a 
bunch  of  society  hypocrites,  who  preach 
one  thing  and  practice  another. 

Segregation  has  no  place  among  Ne- 
.  groes.  For  the  reason  I  think  "Strivers 
Row"  residents  should  mind  their  own 
business,  and  leave  Father  Divine  and  his 
followers  alone.  ^,hite  people  are  very 
much  concerned  with  what  is  going  on  in 
Harlem,  And  if  Father  Divine  and  his 
flock  are  forced  to  vacate  their  newly 
established  "Heaven"  on  139th  Street,  I 
shudder  to  think  what  the  result  will  be 
when  a  Negro  takes  his  next  segregation 
case  to  court.

Club  of  San  Francisco  was  winner 
in  1932.  The  Trojans  took  the 
honors  in  1933.  And  the  Para- 
mount got  off  to  a  good  start  this 
year  looking  very  much  like  the 
winners  and  the  cup  would  have 
been  their  permanent  property,

bid  in  the  home  stretch,  overtak-

victory  and  place  their  name  on

team  was  composed  of:  Mrs.  Jerry 
Fields,  Mrs.  Ann  Powell;  subs 
were  Mrs.  Thad  Dawson  and  Mrs.

MERCHANTS  OF  DKATH,  by  H.  C.   EiiK«n»r.«h«   and  V. 
C.    Hanighen. 

Somewhere  in  George  Bernard  Shaw's  "Major  Bar- 
bara," one  Undershaft,  an  armament  maker,  says  to  a 
statesman : 

"I  am  the  government  of  your  country  .  .  .  you  will  do 
what  pays  us.  You  will  make  war  when  it  suits  us  and 
keep  jieace  when  it  doesn't.  .  ,  .  When  I  w;int  anything  to 
ki^ep  my  dividends  up,  you  will  discover  that  my  want  is  a 

national  need  When  other  people 
want  something  to  keep  my  divi- 
dends down,  you  will  call  out  the 
police  ond  military.  And  in  return 
you  shall  have  the  support  of  my 
newspapers,  and  the  delight  of 
Imagining  that  you  are  a  great 
statesman."

Manless  Wedding  presented 
by  tbe  Zion  Church  oboir  waa 
certainly  the  success  expected.  A 
great  deal  of  fun  prevailed  and  a 
splendid  audience  enjoyed  the  en- 
tertainment. The  following  were 
the  participants:  Mrs.  Tide  Taylor, 
bride;  Mrs.  B.  Atkinson,  groom; 
Mrs.  Hogan.  best  man;  Mrs.  H. 
Jeffries,  matron  of  honor;  Mrs.  M. 
Johnson.  Miss  Sylvia  Belle  Ma- 
gruder,  deserted  wife  and  Nelline 
Magruder,  her  child;  Franzylea

lia Stradher.  flower  girl;  Miss 
Melfaun  Plnkney  and  Mrs.  Faith 
Thomas,  ushers;  last  but  not 
least.  Mrs  William  Smith,  minis- 
ter. 

The  wedding  party  with  Its  va- 
ried members  and  vegetable  bou- 
quete  provoked  a  great  deal  of 
merriment  but  the  added  humor- 
•us  dialogue  written  by  Mrs.  Ma- 
bel Ritchardson  brought  forth 
riots  of  langtater.  Mrs.  Love  played 
for  the  bridal  procession.  Before 
the  ceremony  Miss  Plnkney  and 
Mrs.  Johnson  gave  an  improvised 
dialogue.  Nellne  Magruder  recited. 
Early  Wilson  sang  a  solo.  Iflsa 
Leona  Dykes  gave  a  few  number* 
on  the  accorlllon  and  Mrs.  Foster 
played  until  the  program  started. 
After  tbe  wedding  the  bridal 
party  and  guests  enjoyed  refresh- 
ments at  a  very  nominal  fee.  Mrs. 
Stewart  Is  certainly  to  be  com- 
mended for  brlngtaf  this  splendid

PLAIN  TALK  ON  WAR  AND  FASCISM 

By    Hilliani    B.   Spofford,    Editor   of   The 
Witness,      10pisco|ml      Church      Weekly, 
Secretary  of  the  Church  League  for  Jp,- 
dustrial  Democracy 
i  LOT  of  smart  people  are  writing  these 
**  days  on  the  Choice   Before   Us   but  it 
aeems  to  roe  that  few  of  them  get  down  to 
brass  t|cks.  llicy  all  know  that  the  world 
»  in  a   mesE  and  that  changes  are  inevi- 
table. But  moat  of  them  are  looking  for  an 
eaey  way  out. 

Aa  a  well-known  writer .  said,  people 
arc  willing  to  do  anything  for  the  workers 
but  get  off  their  backs.  So  today  we  find 
mild  reforms  advocated  by  all  sorts  of 
jieoplc.  I  was  talking  with  one  of  them 
the  other  day.  He  was  arguing  his  head 
off  at>out  the  jMjrmancnce  of  the  present 
economic  order,  slightly  reformed,  but 
ended  the  conversation  by  saying,  "Well, 
whatever  happens  I  am  set.  I  bought  a 
farm  the  other  day  so  that  if  things  smas^ 
completely  I  can  raise  potatoes  and  tur- 
nips and  at  least  eat."  That  is  the  amount 
of  confidence  that  he  has  in  the  reformed 
capitalism  which  he  was  defending  so  bol- 
ligerently. 

The  simple  fact  is  that  the  present 
order  is  washed  up.  There  is  no  possible 
way  for  the  present  rulers  to  maintain 
their  iwwer  short  of  dictatorship,  and 
capitalist  dictatorship  means  Fascism. 
And  Fascism  doesn't  mean,  fundamentally, 
Jew-baiting,  Negro-baiting,  Black  Shirts, 
Brown  Shirts,  castor  oil  and  all  the  rest  of 
the  silly  business  that  we  read  about  in 
the  papers,  as  bad  as  these  secondary 
characteristics  certainly  are.  It  means  the 
limiting  of  production  by  the  owners  that 
their  profit  system  may  be  maintained  a 
while  longer.  It  means  even  worse  than 
that — it  means  War,  for  part  of  their 
program  is  to  seek  export  markets  for  the 
goods  denied  the  starving  millions. 

Economically  we  have  the  beginnihgij 
of  Fascism  here  in  the  United  States. 
Codes  are  limiting  production  and  the 
government  is  ordering  the  farmers  to 
bum  their  wheat,  plow  under  their  cotton 
and  kill  their  little  pigs.  Why?  Because 
people  have  no  need  of  these  things?  N<A 
at  all.  It  is  because  the  profit  system  eon 
be  maintained  only  if  theer  is  a  scarcity 
of  goods,  and  the  masters  are  determined 
that  there  shall  be  profits  even  if  it  means 
starvation  and  misery  for  the  vast  major- 
ity. 

We  are  suckers  if  we  allow  them  to 
get  away  with  it,  and  by  "we"  1  mean 
everyone,  for  all  but  the  very  few  on  top 
are  going  to  suffer  more  and  more  as  this 
thing  develops.  It  means,  first  of  all, 
Starvation.  11  means  further  the  suppress 
sion  of  all  liberties  and  the  enslavement 
of  mankind.  The  churches  will  become 
the  handmaid  of  the  state,  just  as  they 
have  been  made  to  buckle  under  in  thfi 
F'ascist  countrieii  of  Europe.  All  who  prise 
religious  freedom  must  oppose  Fascisijau 
Elducators  are  enslaved — witness  what  has 
happened  to  them  in  Germany  and  Italy. 
Unions  will  be  put  oue  of  business.  Civil 
liberties  will  most  certainly  be  ruthlessly 
aenied,  with  anyone  daring  to  express  sa 
opinion  displeasing  to  the  masters  either 
lulled  or  thrown  into  a  concentration  cantp 
Or   prison. 

All  of  us — now  that  the  Second  Con- 
gress Against  War  and  Fascism  (which 
will  meet  in  Chicago  this  week)  approach- 
es, all  of  us — Christians,  Jews,  Atheists, 
Conservatives,  liberals  and  Radicals  — 
ihust  fight  this  thing  before  it  develops 
soy  further.  The  way  to  fight  it  is,  first' 
pf  all,  to  understand  the  economic  forces 
that  are  driving  us  rapidly  in  that  (lirec:' 
tion.  The  only  ultimate  escape,  1  believe, 
is  into  a  new  social  order.  There  we  ^will 
find  not  starvation  but  plenty  for  all;  'noi 
dread  «f  destitution  in  old  age  but  the  asr 
Hurancc  of  security;  not  the  denial  of  all 
that  makes  life  worth  the  living  but  the 
releasing  of  powers  in  man  th^t  makes 
for  the  free  and  abundant  life.  ,,

NOW!   STAND  UP  AND  CHKKR! 

By  Wesley  John>ton 

rOR  the  past  several  years  men  and  worn-    j 
'  en,  representing  our  intelUgensia,  have    | 
observed   with   bitter  disappointment   the    ! 
activities  of  young  Negroes.   Their   hopes    ' 
tot  an    inteUigent    and    influential    racial    | 
Itroup   vanished   with    the    constantly    in- 
ovsslng  number  of  girls  and  boys  suffer- 
m%  from  mental  lethargy.  These  men  and 
Wxana  of  sterling  merit,  who  have  been 
in  fostering  good  will  and  an  in^ 
at  understanding  between  their  rac^ 
I  othen,  rave  up  in  despair  and  frantic* 
«d  that  the  fnture  was  hopelesA 
urttttiMto  of  mind  may  well  be  appr# 
lor  out  of  a  lackadaisical,  sophi^- 
sod   pleasure   seeking    class   tai||| 


never  arisen  a  Frederick  Douglas,  a  Phyl- 
lis Wheatley,  aor  a  Booker  T.  Washington. 
With  the  coming  of  the  year  of  1934,  a 
.loteworthy  change  of  attitude  toward  ed- 
ucation on  the  part  of  the  Negro  youth 
beeaine  evident.  This  group  may  well  be 
i.c2-;.ied  "ITie  New  Negfo."  The  name  does 
not  ivioun  that  a  new  group  of  individuals 
,.u,:«eiiBjng  totally  different  racial  charac- 
L.eri3tiC9  has  suddenly  come  into  being.  It 
docs  imply,  however,  that  the  present  day 
Negro  has  been  imbued  with  new  thought 
and  vision,  vibrant  with  a  new  psychology, 
and  vested  with  a  new  spirit  of  awareness. 
As  a  result,  Intellectual  attainment  is  re- 
ceiving unusual  consideration  and  excep- 
tional   high    appraisal. 

According  to  the  registrars  of  the  va- 
rious educational  institutions  of  northern 
California,  the  number  of  Negro  students 
in  attendance  shows  a  marked  increase.  It 
is  further  observed  that  the  Negro  student 
is  gradually  becoming  an  integral  part  of 
his  college  or  university  by  affiliating 
himself  with  extra-curricular  activity  oth- 
er than  athletics.  E^'idently,  he  has  sensed 
his  inherent  capacity  for  development  and 
accomplishment  by  observing  past  per- 
formances which  were  under  severe  handi- 
caps. 

White  Americans  have  been  for  years 
conscious  of  the  Negro's  natural  artistic 
qualities  in  music,  painting,  decoration, 
acting,  public  speaking,  architecture, 
sculpture,  poetic  expression  in  any  form, 
Urace  of  movement,  ease  of  action,  and 
consumate  control  of  self.  Unlike  their 
predecessors,  the  present  tendency  of  Ne- 
gro students  in  mixed  institutions  is  to 
unite  in  an  effort  to  acquaint  the  faculty 
and  student  body  with  the  contributions 
their  race  has  made  to  the  progress  of  this 
country. 

Prevailing  social  ^nd  economic  condi- 
tions are  the  major  forces  which  have 
given  birth  to  this  revival  of  learning  and 
stimulation  of  race  pride.  As  never  before 
the  Negro  of  today  has  been  made  to  real- 
ize the  necessity  of  preparedness.  Since  he 
IS  the  last  to  be  hired  and  the  first  to  be 
fired,  the  Negro  must  be  equipped  to  cope 
with  all  emergencies.  The  present  Negro 
t«naissancc  is  sure  to  be  welcomed  hearti- 
ly by  thousands  of  persons  who  will  in 
turn  have  new  faith  in  Langston  Hughes' 
poem:

'FBKKDOM'  »* 

By  Ma.son  lloba(Hon 
«  GREAT  CLAMOR  was  recently  raised 
"  throughout  America  at  what  was  feared 
to  be  an  attempt  to  limit  the  freedom  of 
speech  in  those  two  great* public  forums: 
the  newspaper  and  the  radio. 

Apparently  that  particular  wolf  has 
been  driven  away  from  the  sheep.  No  one, 
however,  seemed  to  fei^  it  necessary  to 
mention  the  fact  that  real  freedom  of 
.''peech  never  existed  either  over  the  air  or 
in  our  newspapers.  The  clamor  was  really 
in  defense  of  something  which  never  has 
existed. 

America  is  filled  with  sacred  white  ele- 
phants in  the  form  of  ideas  and  institu- 
tions. So  long  as  our  bright  young  satir- 
ists, our  comics  and  our  editorial  pundits 
aim  the  barbs  of  their  rancor  elsewhere, 
utter  "freedom"  is  permitted.  However, 
for  a  man  to  write  unfavorably  of  any  of 
the  sacred  herd  would  be  journalistic 
suicide. 

If  Judy  O'Grady  chooses  to  Practice 
plastic  surgery  on  her  husband's  face  with 
the  frying  pan  it  will  make  front  page 
news.  However  the  colonel's  lady,  if  the 
colonel  Should  happen  to  be  a  large  stock- 
holder in  a  corporation  which  advertises 
(extensively,  might  do  almost  anything  and 
have  the  facts  go  unpublished  or,  if  they 
do  appear,  do  so  in  shy  retirement  down 
at  the  bottom  of  the  inside  page  under  a 
column  of  statistics.  And  as  for  anyone 
attacking  the  institution  of  big  business! 
Why  they  can't  even  teach  economics  in 
collie  as  it  should  be  taught. 

On  the  air  lanes  you  may  talk  of  Gin 
and  Beer  (with  restraint).  But  should 
Romeone  attempt  to  broadcast  the  idea 
that  the  most  sensible  approach  to  life  is 
to  remain  constantly  drunk  and  forget  the 
whole  nasty  mess;  if  someone  should  at- 
tempt to  broadcast  pro-communistic  argu- 
ments, arguments  in  favor  of  birth  con- 
trol, sex  freedom,  socialism  or  anti-relig- 
ious propaganda,  his  listeners  would  hear

It  Is  highly  important  that  we 
look  ahead  for  the  younger  gen- 
eration, for  during  adolescence 
the  character  of  the  adult  is 
molded.  Hence  if  we  can  en- 
courage and  assist  an  institution 
which  promotes  organized  play, 
athletics,  social  atmosphere,  lit- 
erature, and  fellowship,  we  are 
building  for  the  future  ^nd 
making  possible,  for  the  individ- 
ual, happiness  and  a  well  bal- 
anced   life. 

The  Community  Center  has 
trained  leaders  in  numerous 
fields  to  direct  the  promotion  of 
the  aforssaid  recreational  activ- 
ities, and  its  sole  need  is  the 
full  and  hearty  cooperation  of 
the  populace.  The  Community 
Center  is  vital  to  our  lives.  Con-

Rev.  E  J  Magruder.  popular 
pastor  of  the  A.  M.  E.  Zion  church 
in  San  Francisco  narrowly  miucd 
death  this  week  when  his  car 
was  «ruck  and  overturned  by  a 
Lincoln,  the  property  of  and  pi- 
loted by  the  chauffeur  of  Mrs. 
George  Rolph.  sister  in  law  of  the 
late  Governor  James  Rolph. 

The  accident  occurred  at  the 
intersection  of  Franklin  and 
Jackn>n  Streets  in  San  Francisco 
about  10:30  Monday  morning.  Rev. 
Magruder  was  returning  from  the 
funeral  services  at  St.  Brigid's 
church  of  Mrs.  Gregoria  Braan. 
The  driver  of  the  other  car 
seemingly  did  not  notice  the  oth- 
er car  crossing  the  street  at  right 
angles  to  him.  for  he  struck  the 
light  car  well  towards  the  rear, 
cruahing  the  side  and  turaiag  it 
over. 

After  being  rushed  to  the  Emer- 
gency hospital.  Rev.  Macrader 
was  found  to  be  niffering  from  a 
badly  wrenched  aide  and  sprained 
arm.

The  wortd  faeries  is  back  again,  which  melons  that  when 
The  Spokesman  come«  off  the  press,  Xoias  is  only  96  days 
off— jilBt   a   couple   days   more   than   three   moliths.   Can't 

you   hear   the   .vuletide   bells    ringing   and   the What? 

You'd  rather  hear  the  sound  through  the  mlio  cf  Jimmy 
Fox  or  Goose  Goalin  nitting  a  homer  for  Detroit!  Well,  so 
would  I.  One  can  ring  a  bell  an>'time,  but  you  dop't  hear 
that  old  familiar,  "Sotk,"  whenever  you  fdease.  Dope  re^ 
ccived  by  the  wrfter  from  the  East,  informs  me  that  the 
big  play  will  start  on  Wednesday.  October  3,  in  the  park 
■of  the  American  League  pi^nnant  winner.  At  this  writing, 
(Tuesday),  it  looks  like  that  team  will  be  Frank  Na\'in's 
Detroit  Tigers,  who  are  6'o  games  in  front  of  the  N.  Y. 
Yankees.  For  the  National  circuit  bunting,  the  Giants  hold 
a  sUm  edge  of  less  than  4  games  on  St.  Louis  aod  anything 
may  happen.  Regardless,  the  dispatch  offers  this  info,  pro- 
viding the  abovf^  teams  cop.  The  series  opens  at  the  Motor 
City  and  plays  there  the  3rd  and  4th,  jumping  to  New 
York  for  the  next  three  games,  October  5,  6  and  7.  The 
prices  «t11  run,  $8.60  for  bbx  stats,  fe.SO  and  $3.30  for 
grand  stand  and  blfcicliers  a  "buck  'ri  ten."  And  ftere  is 
good  news.  Henry  F<  .-xl  V6,  maker  of  a  \to11  linown  road 
pest,  has  purchased  the  brftftdcasting  privileges  for  the 
mere  sum  of  S  100,000  suid  the  great  games  will  come  to  you 
via  both  NBC  and  CBS.  'Lil  Henry  may  sell  a  few  more 
Fords  afterwards  to  world  series  players,  vAS^re  aU  for 
him  n6w — they  get  a1!>oiit  $42,000  cjut  of  mhe  hundred 
"grind"  he  is  paying  for  the  broadcast.  ^

on  the  9th  will  be  present,  and 
while  no  adroission  will  be  charg-

will  be  asked  to  donate  as  much 
as  possible  diving  the  cdlT^tloiD. 
This  request  wUI  ^e  made  owiAg 
to  the  fact  that  the  House  ffr

penses for  returning  to  Oakland 
from  a  Friday  game  some  hun-

METCALFE   SETS   WORLD 
RECORD    IN     JAt>AN 

TOKIO,  .Tapan.— The  wianlitfT  of 
two  sprint  events,  toe  100  and  200 
meter  dashes  by  Ralph  Metcalfe, 
enabled  the  American  team  to  de- 
feat J&pari  In  a  two  day  meet 
Soptember    9. 

Metcalfe  turned  in  the  two  most 
sen.<iational  performances  of  the 
meet.  He  won  the  200  meter  dash 
in  20.2  seconds.  Charley  Parsons, 
(white)   of  II    S.  C.  was  second. 

Althoitgh  the  above  tinie  clearly, 
breaks  the  200  meter  record,  it  Is 
doubtful  if  the  record  win  be  of- 
ricialTy  recojTiized  as  th'^re  is

have   a  definite   policy  that   wc   do

of  the  western  zone  of  the  Fire-

a  letter  addressed  last  week  to 
Waller  White,  secretary  of  the 
National  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Colored   PeoplA 

The  Htitement  was  in  reply  to  a 
complaint  by  Mr  White  of  some- 
time ago  against  an  Inter-office 
memorandum  in  the  Grand  fiap- 
ids,  Mich,  office  of  the  Firestone 
Company,  signed  by  H  C  Acker, 
district  manager,  objecting  to  a 
Negro  employe   waiting  on  trade. 

"'On  a  recent  shopping  check  of 
your  store,"  the  memorandum 
stated,  "it  was  found  that  the 
colored  attendant  was  waiting  on 
trade  and  left  a  rather  poor  im- 
pression 

"I  would  watch  this  if  I  were 
you  and  let  him  handle  trade  only 
in  extreme  emergencies.  I  don't 
believe  you  would  appreciate  being 
served  by  a  colored  attendant  if 
you  were  in  a  station  where  the 
crew  was  made  up  largely  of 
white  men  " 

In    his    letter    of    complaint    Mr. 
White  warned  "Many  thousands  of 
Negroes   in   the    United   States    own 
automobiles     Many    of    these     use 
Firestone     tires      The     question     I  j

AMFR,  FEDERATION  OF  LABOR  RAPPED  FOR 
ITS  TWO  FACED  POLICY  IN  TREATING  RACE 


\ 


The  aliliuUp  of  the  American 
Krdvratliiii  of  Labor  toward  the 
Negro  IK.  according  to  Earl  L. 
llrown  111  an  article  In  "Today" 
very  inuih  like  that  of  the  magl- 
<  ian  who  blandly  assures  his  au- 
diitue  that  he  has  nothing  up  bis 
.-dcevcx.  nothing  at  all:  then  pulls 
a  brnf:e  of  rsbblts,  a  puppy  dog 
and  a  string  of  South  American 
liag»  out  of  his  "empty"  arm  cov- 
•  rinK-i 

The  Federation,  according  to 
Mr  Brown,  has  a  policy  of  total 
impartiality  In  lu  membership  re- 
c|ulrements  insofar  as  race,  color 
or  crted  are  concerned.  And  It  re- 
quired of  the  IJnions  affiliated 
with  It  that  they  subscribe  to 
that  policy  However,  in  actual 
practice,  nothing  even  spprosch- 
liig  such  an  attitude  la  evident.  On 
the  contrary  bigotry.  prejudice 
and  distrust  In  fact  all  the  pop- 
ular American  Idean  and  prac- 
tices regarding  treatment  of  the 
black  worker  are  found  in  the 
various   iinion.i 

Mr  William  Green,  president  of 
the  American  Federation  of  Labor, 
made  a  statement  giving  the  atti- 
tude of  the   Federation   as   (ollown: 

"Realizing  the  necessity  for  the 
unity  of  the  wage  earnerif  of  uur 
country,  the  American  Federation 
»f  t..ubor  has  upon  all  occasions 
declared  that  trade  unions  should 
open  their  portals  to  all  wage 
earners,  irrespective  of  creed,  col- 
or, nationality,  sex  or  politics 
Nothing  has  transpired  in  recent 
years  which  has  called  for  a 
change  of  our  declared  policy 
upon  this  question:  on  the  con- 
trary, every  evidence  tend.H  to  con- 
firm u«  In  this  conviction;  for, 
even  if  It  were  not  a  matter  of 
principle,  self  preservstion  would 
prompt  the  workers  to  organize 
intelligently  and  to  make  common 
cause  " 

UIPFERCNCe 

Tbe  difference  between  state- 
ment and  practice  la  made  sharp- 
ly   evident    In    Mr     Brown's    article. 

An  example  of  nome  of  the  facts 
cancerning  the  A  F  of  I.,  in  ref- 
erence to  the  -Negro  workers,  may 
."how  why  the  above  quotations 
are   so  dramHticully   oppo.site 

The  strength  ol  the  A.  F  of  L 
rests  upon  the  strength  of  the  na- 
tional and  the  international  un- 
ions Many  of  these  unions,  formed 
between  IMO  snd  1H90.  "totally 
misread  the  trends  in  American 
indastry "  Machinery,  women,  un- 
skilled and  aeml-skilled  workers 
and  Negroes  were  subject  to  the 
restrictions  of  their  constitutions 
and  by-laws  Today,  no  fewer  than 
24  national  snd  International  un- 
ions, ten  of  whith  are  affiliated 
with  the  A  F.  of  L,  exclude  Ne- 
groes from  their  membership 
through  provisions  in  their  con- 
stitutions or  rituals  These  unions 
are:  1  The  Internaliunal  Brother- 
hood of  Boilermakers.  Iron  Ship- 
builders and  Helpers  o(  America 
2— The  International  As.ioclation 
of  Machlnista  3  The  Brotherhood 
of  Railway  Carmen  4  The  Bro- 
therhood of  Railway  and  Steam- 
ship Clerks,  Freight  Handlers.  Ex- 
press and  Station  Kmployeea  5 
The  Brotherhood  of  Dining  Car 
Conductors  »  The  Order  of 
Sleeping  Car  Conductors  7  The 
Order  of  Railway  Conductors  of 
America-  &  The  Grand  Interna- 
tional Brotherhood  of  Railway 
Engineers  »  The  Order  of  Rail- 
way Expressmen  10  The  Ameri- 
can   Federation   of    Expressmen.    11 

The  Brotherhood  of  Locomotive 
Firemen  and  Engineers.  12  The 
National  Organization  of  Masters, 
Mates  and  Pilots  of  North  Ameri- 
ca. IS— The  Neptune  Association 
14  The  American  Federation  of 
Railway  Workers  15--The  Switch- 
men's Union  of  North  America 
16— The  Brotherhood  of  Railroad 
Trainmen  17  The  Brotherhood  of 
Railroad  Station  Employees  and 
Clerks.  18  The  American  Federa- 
tion of  Train  Umpalchers.  l^  The 
Railroad  Yardmasters  of  North 
America.  20  -Railway  Mail  Asso- 
ciation. 21  The  American  Wire 
Weavers   Protective   Association.   22 

The     Order     of      Railroad     Tele- 
graphers. 23 — The  Commercial  Tel- 
egraphers  Union    of    America    24 
Tbe       Railroad       Yardmasters       of 
America. 

Because  of  the  A  F  of  L  policy 
that  affiliated  organizations  may 
not  retain  In  their  constitutions 
any  discriminatory  clauses  against 
Negroes,  the  t>ollermakers  and  the 
machinists  accomplish  Ibis  ex- 
clusion by  a  pledge  which  forms  a 
part  of  the  ritual  and  binds  each 
member  to  propose  only  while 
workers  for  membership.  Not  ex- 
ercising the  caution  shown  by  the 
boilermakers  and  machinists,  the 
other  unions  affiliated  with  the  A. 
f^.  of  L.  retain  the  discriminatory 
clauses  In  their  constitutions.  The 
Railway  Carmen  limit  membership 
to  "any  white  person  between  the 
ngrs  of  16  and  M  " 
UKNIKI)    AmUATlUN 

As  a  result  of  the  exclusion  poli- 
cies of  these  unions,  not  fewer 
than  22ft,onO  Negroes  are  denied 
trade  union  affiliation  and  Its  at- 
tendant  benefits. 

It  la  not  to  he  assumed,  howev- 
er, that  the  absence  of  constitu- 
tional clauses  discriminating 
against  Negro  workers  impllea 
their  admission  Into  the  unions. 
Tacit  agreements,  examination 
snd  local  determination  of  eligibil- 
ity for  membership  servo  as  deter- 
rents to  Negro  Inclusion  in  many 
unions.    The    plumbers    never    have 


Vinadc  an  Issue  of  the  question  of 
admitting  Negroes,  although  it  is 
;;enerally  understood  that  they 
are  not  admitted  Despite  |ierti- 
nent  eff'irta  of  Negro  plumberN  in 
Philadelphia,  New  York  and  Chi- 
cago to  secure  membemhip,  they 
hi4>'e  luil  AUrcceded  In  Philadel- 
phia, licensing  boards  will  not 
grant  liienscs  to  Negro  plumbers. 
Another  instance  of  exclusion  is 
that  of  the  flint  glans  workem.

bers, a  separate  i  barter  is  isaued 
to  the  Negro  group  In  many 
cases.  It  means  that  the  .Negroes 
work  on  a  lower  scale  than  do  the 
white    musicians 

('a.>«e  on  top  u  fi-ase.  in  every 
field  of  Industry,  can  be  related 
In  reference  to  rxclunion  and  seg- 
regation on  the  part  of  thf  unions 
against  the  Negro  workera  In- 
Btiad  of  trying  to  improve  these 
unfortunate  condition*,  the  A  F. 
of  L  has  permitted  the  black 
workers  to  drift  away  from  the_ 
uniiinn  in  Increasing  numtiers  Ne- 
gro inemlwra  in  the  unions  direct- 
ly affiliated  to  thr  A  F  of  L  to- 
talled 3Z.«19  in  IW<I>.  SMJU  in  1910: 
and  42,619  In  193>>  Examining  a 
few  apccific  unions,  we  find  that 
in  the  barbers  and  journeymen's 
union  there  were  tUX)  .Negro  mem- 
bers in  iwm.  l.urin  m  leio  and  only 
23(1  in  192s  The  cigar  makers  un- 
ion boasted  of  B.OOfi  .Negro  mem- 
bers in  19111  snd  lli>  in  192)1.  while 
the  Negro  union  mine  workera 
fell  from  4ii.isai  in  19IU  to  J.OOO  In 
192S  In  prw^eally  every  union, 
there  ha.i  been  a  decrease  in  Ne- 
grt)  menibcrAhip,  in  apite  of  the 
tremendoua  inirease  in  white 
mrmberahip  during  tbe  war  and 
.Hince  the  .National  Recovery  Act 
gave  ao  much  impetua  and  popu- 
larity to  trade    unionism 

The  mam  method  uaed  by  the  A 
F  of  L  to  organize  Negro  work- 
era  ainre  I9ilf)  i.<  to  form  separate 
locals  of  colored  workers,  either 
as  auxiliaries  of  the  local  white 
union  or  directly  atfiliated  with 
the  federation  The  effectiveness 
of  such  organization  has  not  been 
commendable 

Although  there  were  109  Negro 
locals  arflUal«d  directly  with  tbe 
A  F  of  U  li>  1919.  there  were 
only  52  in  IftSA  and  38  in  1»2>. 
Fourteen  of  the  in  nnw  listed  are 
groups  of  tbe  rcccnllyaffiliated  ' 
alecping  car  portrra.  while  seven 
of  the  remaining  locals  may  be 
classified    as   inactive 

What,  then,  is  the  real  attitude 
of  the  American  Federation  of 
Labor  toward  the  Negro  workers?  | 
From  the  actual  farts  in  the  case, 
it  comprises  a  number  of  resolu- 
tions urging  organization  of  .Ne-  , 
gro  workera.  a  protest  here  and 
vacuous  decreea  there  against  ef- 
forts of  radicals  at  organization; 
segregated  organization  of  Negro 
workers  in  certain  oiiupatlons 
through  local  and  federated  un- 
ions: a  few  pleas  for  organization; 
the  employment,  at  various  time*, 
of  a  few  Negro  organisers;  and  a 
total  Inability,  if  not  unwilling- 
ness, to  compel  the  International 
unions  to  remove  Negro  exclusion 
clauses  from  their  constitutions 
-  The  federation  essays  policies  or 
stands  for  them  realizing  that  it 
cannot  carry  them  out  It  has  at- 
tempted to  live  up  to  its  philoso- 
phy of  liberalism  without  per- 
forming the  mechanics  necessary 
to  make  that  liberalism  a  reality. 
So  few  have  been  its  efforts  In 
behalf  nf  Negro  workers,  despite 
Us  pranouniements,  that  it  has 
fsiled  to  rryatalize  the  opinion  of 
Negro  snd  white  workers  and  the 
intelligent  public  to  any  other 
conclusion  than  that  the  American 
Federation  of  Labor  "stands  for" 
'  the  organization  of  workers  de- 
spite their  race,  creed  or  color, 
I  then,  with  complacent  self  satls- 
I  faction,  sits  down,  having  done 
'  nothing. 

To  quote  Leo  Wolman:  'The 
:  American  nderatlon  of  Labor 
as  a  central  organizing  machine, 
had  fallen  Into  disuse  for  this 
I  purpose  several  decades  ago.  and 
I  as  It  grew  older.  II  lost,  with  Its 
I  youth.  Its  energy  and  Its  Initia- 
tive."

Lords  and   the   King   of   Kings."         | 

Fa'her  Divine  is  in  a  measure 
regarded  /is  God  in  thi-  teachings  I 
K<  I  fplod  by  the  mission  followers.  ' 
.Not  in  body,  he  explains,  but  In  1 
jtpirit  He  c^o  heal  all  ailmenU.  : 
..an  banish  all  troubles,  his  follow- 
ers   -lay. 

"Thank     L"    Father 

The  last  three  word.s  ot  the  fore- 
going are  spoken  1  on.<itantly  by 
followers  at  the  mLiision  If  some- 
one pas.ies  a  salt  shaker  to  one  at 
the  table,  for  instance,  the  ac- 
knowledgment is  not  "Thank  you," 
but    is    'Thank    you.    Father.' 

Another  phrase  repeaUd  fre- 
quently and.  uttered  during  the 
worship  sessions  is  "It's  wonder- 
ful"' This  is  varied  by  "Isn't  it 
wonderful?"  "It'a  trulv  wonderful" 
and    "Isn't    it   wonderful.   Father?" 

Murn  of  the  wonder  expressed 
IS  over  the  healing  attributed  to 
Father  Divine. 

"I  had  heart  trouble  when  I 
e.ime  here,  and  had  tried  in  vain 
through  the  use  of  digitalis,  to 
overcome  it.  but  not  until  I  ac- 
(Cpted  the  teachings  of  Father  1 
Divine  was  I  cured,"  said  Man-  1 
ager    Cramer.  ; 

"The     total     number     of     persons 
who    have    visited    the    place    since  ' 
we     opened     it     i.s     about     20,000,     I  , 
believe      We     feed     about     1,01)0    a  , 
month    fret  ' 

The     exhortations     are     short,     a 
talk,    of    10    minutes,    for    example,  , 
t)eing     followed    by    a    delirium    of 
chanting    and    body    swaying    that  : 
lasts    for    4f>    minutes 

Children  barely  able  to  toddle 
imitate  the  elders  in  the  chanting 
and  swaying  and  clapping  of 
hands  Elderly  men  and  women, 
both  black  and  white,  strive  to 
keep  up  with  the  movemenU  of 
the    demonstration. 

Young  black  girls,  unconscious 
of  the  natural  grace  of  their 
swayings  and  arm  undulations, 
roll  their  heads  as  with  wide  open 
mouths  they  chant  the  few  simple  ' 
words   of   the    hyitins   in    repetition.  \ 

A     blonde     young     woman.     Miss 
Lovely     Young,     smartly     dressed, 
sways    with    the    others     Only    she  . 
stands    on    a    platform    in    front    of  I 
fhe    congregation     Miss    Young    is  1 
a    shorthand    reporter    aod    steno-  1 
graphi  r.    employed    by    Father    Dl-  | 
vine    to    make    transcripU    of    the 
preachings    uttered    in    the    hall. 

She.  too,  is  graceful  In  her 
swaying  When  the  exulution  1 
demonstration  ceases,  and  a 
.ipeaker  mounts  the  platform. 
Miss  Young,  businesslike,  resumes 
her    pad    and    pencil. 

Otherwise  staid  white  men  join 
in  the  impestuosity  of  the  occas- 
ion, jerkily  but  with  ardor  It's  a 
.vibration  in  emotional  outburst 
that  seems  to  move  with  the  pre- 
cision   of   a    machine. 

All  these  missions  are  called 
"kingdoms'  by  the  followers  of 
Father  Divine.  Lo«  Angeles  is 
said  to  have  one  of  the  largest, 
split    into    two    missions. 

The    mission    at    4Ist    Street    is 

operated  .•imilarly  to  that  al  fSSth. 

'  It    Is    in    charge    of    Rebecca    Well, 

formerly    an    employee    of    Father 

Divine    in    New    York. 

The   41»t    Street   establishment    is 

situated   in   the   Dunbar   hotel,   for- 

I  merly  the  "Harlem   Show   Boat,"   a 

■  night   club  once   operated   by  Jack 

I  Johnson.      former      heavyweight 

champion 

In  addition  to  serving  meals 
there,  nt  a  maximum  of  10  cenU, 
rooms  arc  rented  at  »2  s  week, 
with    two   beds   to  each   room 

Like  thr  worship  hall  and  the 
dining  room,  there  Is  no  racial 
distinclion  in  renting  of  the  rooms. 

One  distinction,  however,  la  em- 
phasized that  of  sex  Tbe  top 
floor  rooms  are  rented  only  to 
male  patrons,  it  waa  explained, 
and  the  second  floor  only  to 
women 

Manager  Rebecca  Well  declare! 
this  rule  I.h  rigidly  observed,  ac- 
cording to  the  ttacblnga  of  Father 
Divine. 

In   his  teachings,   even   man   and

TIRE  COMPANY  SAYS 
'UUR  POLICY  FAIR' 


NEW  YORK.  Sept  14 -Mrs. 
Mary  V  V.  Blanchard  of  Carmel, 
Calif .  has  just  sent  her  check  for

.NEW  YOR:.,  Sept  14  "We 
have  a  definite  policy  that  we  do 
not  discriminate  against  Negroes," 
declared  A.  P  Matbieaoii.  m.macer 
of  the  western  zone  of  tile  Firc- 
...i  ..  i;i.i.,ir  t.oiiip.-.iiy,  in 
a  letter  addressed  last  week  to 
Walter  White,  secretary  of  the 
National  Asaociation  for  the  Ad- 
vancement  of  Colored   People 

The  atatement  was  in  reply  to  a 
complaint  by  Mr  White  of  some- 
time ago  against  an  inter-office 
memorandum  in  the  Grand  ftap- 
ids,  Mich,  office  of  the  Firestone 
Company,  signed  by  H  C  Acker, 
district  manager,  objecting  to  a 
Negro  employe  waiting  on  trade. 

"On  a  recent  shopping  check  of 
your  store,"  the  memorandum 
stated,  "it  was  found  that  the 
colored  attendant  was  waiting  on 
trade  and  left  a  rather  poor  im- 
pression 

"I  would  watch  this  if  I  were 
you  and  let  him  handle  trade  only 
in  extreme  emergencies.  I  don't 
believe  you  would  appreciate  being 
served  by  a  colored  attendant  if 
you  were  in  a  station  where  the 
crew  was  made  up  largely  of 
white  men"  ' 

I      In    his    letter    of    complaint    Mr. 
White  warned  "Many  thousands  of 
Negroes   in   the    United  States   own 
automobiles      Many     of     these     use

In  his  reply  to  this  complaint, 
Mr  Mathieson  wrote:  "The  mana-

THE  farmers  of  Concord,   Mass.   fired   a 

shot  heard  round  the  world.  But  even 
more  remarkable  sound  waves  are  being 
produced  by  the  farmers  of  Arizona,  and 
of  the  interior  of  California.  These  men 
are  firing  shots  in  the  direction  of  Oriental 
farm  owners  and  laborers,  sounds  of 
which  are  heard  in  Toliyo,  yet  fail  to 
reach  the  ears  of  the  various  county  sher- 
iffs, leas  than  ten  miles  away.  This  pecu- 
har  acoustic  property  is  the  cause  of  no 
little  astonishment  in  Japan  where  the 
fX)litica!  activities  of  such  sterling  bodies 
for  political  betterment  as  the  Ku  Klux 
Klan  and  the  Night  Riders  of  the  west  is 
unknown.  However,  to  the  Negro,  with 
superior  racial  memory,  such  things  are 
not  strange  at  all.  In  fact  it  is  very  much 
like  old  times  back  home. 

It  is  pleasant  to  note  that  the  Night 
;;iders  have  progressed  right  along  with 
the  country.  They  are  attempting  a  much 
more  difficult  and  thorough  task  than  was 
t^vcr  dreamed  of  by  their  shroud-clad  pro- 
genitors. 

The  K.  K.  K.  set  themselves  a  far  less 
anibitious  program — seeking  only  to  so 
terrorize  the  Negroes  that  they  would  re- 
main something  a  little  less  than  men  and 
a  little  more  than  a  farm  animal.  But  the 
K.  K.  K.  did  feel  that  the  Negro  had  a 
place  i  nthe  south.  It  was  their  purpose  to 
see  that  the  Negro  kept  that  place. 

The  Night  Riders  have  set  for  them- 
selves a  far  more  difficult  task.  They 
hope,  by  waving  the  magic  cloak  of  dark- 
ness, to  cause  many  thousands  of  Oriental 
laborers  to  completely  disappear.  And,  by 
the  same  gesture,  they  hope  to  solve  the 
economic  problem  of  the  farmer. 

Although  we  can  admire  the  Night 
Riders  for  their  clever  originality  in  bring- 
ing prestidigitation  to  the  aid  of  the  AAA, 
we  still  cannot  restrain  our  wonder  as  to 
just  how  they  hope  to  make  the  thing 
stick. 

When  the  mysterious  gentlemen  in 
whiskers  makes  the  young  lady  in  tights 
completely  disappear  from  the  stage  of  a 
theater  by  the  simple  process  of  waving 
his  arms  and  saying  something  that 
sound?"  like  "epilachidness"  read  back- 
A'ard,  we  iielieve  our  eyes — she's  gone.  But 
iJiere  n-mains  some  inner  secret  part  of 
our  minds  which  refuses  to  believe.  We 
know  with  that  part  of  our  minds  that  the 
lady  is  not  really  gone,  but  is  curled  up 
.'ike  a  pretzel  somewhere  behind  a  mirror. 
And  will  spring  out  beaming  when  the 
band  music  reaches  a  crescendo. 

That  same  part  of  our  minds  refuses 
the  thought  that  the  Night  Riders  will  be 
wholly  successful  in  making  the  Orientals 
disappear.  We  suspect  that  they  will  re- 
appear, beaming,  somewhere  else. 

There  is  possible  a  means  to  a  perma- 
nent solution — a  way  that  has  perhaps 
escaped  the  attention  of  these  eminent 
igrie-ulturalisLs.  The  prircipU  complaint 
against  oriental  labor  is  that  the  orientals 
standards  of  hving  is  so  much  lower  than 
that  of  th^  white  man  that  it  is  impossible 
to  compete,  economically,  with  them  with- 
(>ut  lowering  their  own  standards  of  liv- 
ing. 

This  argument  however,  fails  to  embrace 
the  important  consideration  of  the  influ- 
ence of  environment  in  shaping  the  stan- 
dards of  living.  It  is  strange  that  a  peo- 
ple who  outnumber  a  minority  group  by 
such  a  vast  percentage  as  does  the  white 
group  in  America,  should  have  so  .little 
confidence  in  their  customs  and  the  influ- 
ence of  their  systems  of  education  to  fear 
that  they  would  be  unable  to  absorb  the 
minorities  and  shape  them  into  our  better 
way  of  life.  In  fact,  observation  of  third 
and  fourth  generations  of  these  minori- 
♦ies,  where  they  have  been  given  the 
opportunity  to  do  do  bo,  indicates  that 
■ttch  fears  are  groundless.  We  would 
suggest  tolerance  and  patience  as  a  so- 
lution of  the  problem,  or  a  change  in  the 
g«i»ting  economic  order.  But  we  don't 
hold  much  hope  for  the  application  of 
<4tber  solution.  That  involves  a  bit  of 
night  riding  on  a  number  of  old,  entrench- 
ed ideas— and  ideas  are  far  more  difficult 
of  extirpation  than  are  human  beings.

A  POBNVLA  OF  FR0GBE88 
.  By  Jobo  BuMey- 

ri  THE  development  of  rmdal  groups  up- 
wfrds,   all   progress   depends   upon   the 
|lft)j|ttCtion  of  a  oompsrativ«ly  small  num- 
,  improved  individuals,  who  are  su- 
to  the  mass  in  knowledge,  skill  or 
and  who,   by  i^wson  of   their 
powam,  render  a  new  service  to 
of  people  smoof  whom  they  live, 
law  of  the  lanCIENT  FEW, 
It  points  out  that  progress 
the  differsBttotkm  of  a  few 


w 

Ipigher  samples  of  human  beings. 

■  It  may  appear  to  many  controversial 
:lniit  such  a  formula  is  true.  But  all  the 
constructive  work  in  the  world  has  been 
dene  by  a  few  individuals,  and  usually  in 
spite  of  the  active  opposition  of  the  ma- 
jority or  mass.  Progress  comes  by  their 
upward-pushing  lives  in  a  perpetual  strug- 
gle with  many  powerful  forces,  evidenced 
by  pubUc  opinion  and  the  more  important 
social  institutions. 

The  ma;^  oi  people  are  never  progress- 
ive. They  can  destroy,  but  they  can  never 
create.  They  can  pull  down,  but  they  can 
never  build  up.  Nor  does  the  impulse  of 
pj-ogress  always  come  from  universities, 
churches,  courts  or  governments,  for  they 
are,  to  a  large  extent,  interested  in  keep- 
ing things  as  they  are.  In  the  ensuing 
struggle  between  the  mass  and  the  few  to 
advance,  it  is  invariably  found  that  most 
people  are  opposed  to  superior  things  and 
superior  people.  They  resent  superiority 
as  a  reflection  upon  themselves.  This  su- 
periority is  new.  It  is  different.  Therefore 
they  are  opposed  to  it. 

The  refusal  to  accept  a  basic  truth,  or, 
in  short,  the  unteachable  attitude  of  mind 
of  the  mass,  becomes  the  reason  for  lack 
of  progress  in  any  group  or  any  nation. 
Gk^wth  and  pix)gress  depends  upon  the 
production  and  encouragement  of  superior 
individuals,  who  will  benefit  their  group  or 
race  as  well  as  themselves  by  their  super- 
ior powers  and  ideas.  Development  moves 
fro  mthe  few  to  the  many — from  the  in- 
dividual to  the  group.

UPTON  SINCLAIR,  after  having  thrown 
the  Democratic  Party  into  a  shocking 
state  of  disruption,  now  seems  about  to 
codnplete  the  turmoil  by  turning  the  Re- 
publican party  upside  down. 

Reports  from  Sacramento  indicate  that 
the  Republicans  realize  that  if  they  are 
to  win  at  the  polls  next  month  they  will 
have  to  offer  a  far  more  liberal  program 
than  they  have  in  the  past.  The  elephant 
is  breaking  but  with  a  bad  attack  of  new 
ideas.  It  will  be  interesting  to  see  what 
^prm    those    new    ideas   will    take. 

From  here  it  is  difficult  to  see  just 
what  tbey  can  offer.  It  is  certain  Uiat 
they  will  not  go  as  far  to  the  left  as  has 
Sinclair.  And  the  happy  medium  which 
would  probably  be  the  course  they  would 
Uke  to  take  is  already  stamped  with  the 
New  Deal  brand.  In  fact  nearly  all  the 
popular  fall  styles  in  new  ideas  seem  to  be 
worn  by  the  donkey. 

What  they  will  probably  fall  on  will  be 
something  that  is  not  quite  the  New  Deal 
and  not  quite  the  old  Republican  conserv- 
atism but  some  bastard  species  of  beast 
which  will  try  to  be  both  elephant  and 
donkey — a  pachydermassinus  plank. 

Then  it  will  be  up  to  the  party  pub- 
licity department  to  create  a  name  and  a 
«logan.  That  will  be  the  really  important 
work  in  the  campaign;  the  coining  of  a 
word  to  connote  Uberal  conservatism  and 
stand  pat  progress.  We  do  not  envy  them 
their  task.

THAT  the  Negro  should  use  his  voting 
privilege;  that  it  is  his  most  effective  if 
not  his  only  effective  weapon,  is  an  idea 
so  common  it  hardly  needs  repetition. 

BUT  IDEAS  ARE  VALUELESS 
WITHOUT  PUTTING  THEM  INTO  AC- 
nON. 

ACT! 
.  ..  REGISTER  AND  VOTE! 
-Ji:  Registration  for  the  November  election 
aloses  one  week  from  today.  If  you  voted 
^t  the  1932  presidential  election  and  have 
<iot  changed  your  precinct  since  then  you 
need  not  re-register,  even  if  you  failed  to 
7ote  4t  the  August  primary. 

If  you  have  moved  from  one  county  to 
another,  you  must  have  lived  in  the  county 
for  90  days  before  election,  or  since  Aug- 
tlst  7,  in  erder  to  be  able  to  qualify  as  a 
voter  by  re-registering.  If  you  have  moved 
from  one  precinct  to  another  in  the  same 
GQunty  you  must  re-register.  If  you  move 
on  or  after  September  27,  the  last  day  for 
registering,  you  can  go  back  to  your  old 
precinct,  if  properly  registered  there,  and 
>ote. 

San  Francisco  today  has  the  largest 
registration  in  its  history.  Those  qualified 
to  vote  at  the  August  primary  numbered 
;^90,083.  Since  then  the  number  has  in- 
creased to  293,375. 

And  here  is  a  significant  fact:  Of  the 
new  registrations  since  the  August  pri- 
mary in  the  two  major  parties,  nearly 
twice  as  many  have  qualified  to  vote  for 
tjpto.j  Sinclair  as  for  Gov.  Merriam,  the 
£igurea  being  509  additional  Republican 
.  tegisLr4Uon8  ^ud  ^36  additional  Demo- 
cratic re^strstions.

The  Republicans,  the  Democrats, 
the  Progressives,  the  Commui^ts 
and  all  the  r.at  of  them  gathered 
logelher  la  Sacramento  last  week 
lo  build  their  various  platforms. 
When  the  platforms  were  finally 
presented  lo  a  breathless  public. 
It  w.s  dlMovered  that  most  of  ihc 
hiunmri'lng  bad  been  directed  to- 
ward the  enemy  camp.  The  Re- 
publicans pointed  toward  the 
Democratic  plank  and  cried  "Hav- 
oc." Tlic  Democrats  pointed  to- 
ward the  Republicans  and  offered 
liulf  u  prig'*  of  vituperation,  only 
pau.sin(  for  commas  und  eenti- 
coUtn', 

An'l  when  all  the  nmoke  and 
dust  blew  away  and  the  coostruc- 
ii\r  uli'Ljuiiu  was  laid  bare  before 
the  public,  It  all  added  up  lo  Just 
another  dish  of  the  old  Italian 
Bolngn>>. 

The  Republicans  decided  to  play 
the  cards  ftji  they  are  The  only 
thing  Ihry  could  think  of  to  ofler 
the  people  In  solution  ef  the  pres- 
ent mi.-crabl"  conditions  waa  un- 
employment insurance.  I  sup- 
pose tbey  felt  that  they  were  fair- 
ly within  th*  limits  of  conterva- 
tism  IM  offering  that  (.!nemploy- 
ment  1 1.  now,  a  part  of  the  glor- 
ious tradition  of  America  And 
uneniployinenl  insurance  will  cer- 
tainly   !•'    needed 

The  Democrats,  who  are.  ac- 
cording to  the  Republlcana.  "Radi- 
cal communist  adventurers.'  of- 
fered the  radical  Idea  of  giving 
the  citizen  the  opportunity  of  be- 
ing self -supporting:  which  is  such 
a  novelty  that  it  is  a  part  of  the 
Constitution.  Communism  finds 
rxprculon  In  the  plank  In  the 
form  of  a  "Just  and  moderate  in- 
crease in  bank  and  Inheritance 
tax..."  And  I  suppose  the  adven- 
lur.  will  lie  ill  the  attempt  on 
the  part  of  the  Democrats  to  put 
out  a  fire  with  a  water  pistol 
And   faith. 

It  Is  certainly  comforting  to 
know  lliat  the  future  of  California 
will  be  In  the  hands  of  one  of  two 
such  daring  groups  as  these  The 
people  seemed  to  want  a  radical 
chnngc  la  the  administration  of 
the  government.  But.  to  quote  Mil- 
Ion.  "The  swollen  sheep  look  up 
and  are  not  fed"  We  will  be  given 
the  stirring  opportunity  lo  choose

Among  the  better  pictures 
T.'hich  you  should  mc  soon  is  the 
Her  hi- McArtbur-wrlllen -managed  • 
directed    "Crime    without    Passion  ' 

In  it  the  playwrights  have  held 
up  for  examination  one  of  those 
end  products  of  a  long  develop- 
ment: the  sophisticated  intellec- 
tual. 

And  they  have,  in  .tartling  ori- 
ginality, managed  to  picture 
wealthy  New  Yorkers  without 
'.howing  .n  MO  •  piece  orche.lra 
playing  for  Mrs.  Van  Doodle's 
voek-rnd  dance:  a  midnight  sail- 
ing of  the  Isle  do  France:  a  pent 
house:  or  the  bed  of  a  million- 
aire's mistress.  reMnihling  a  cross 
between  a  five  dollar  valentine 
ind   Cleopatra's   barge. 

Despite  these  rertrictions.  Hechl 
md  MacArthur  have  given  us 
three  characters  you  will  not  soon 
forget:  Margo  the  agnostic  with 
hik  hrilllaol.  incisive,  legal  mind: 
Carmen  Brown,  the  dancer:  and 
tbe  "other  woman"  whom  he  de- 
scribed with  Swinburne  in  the 
latler's    iioem: 

Cold  eyelids  that   hide  like  a  Jewel 
Hard    eyes    that   grow   soft    for   an 

hour: 
The    heavy    white    limbs,    and    tbe 

cruel 
Red      mouth     Ilka      a      venomous 

flower; 
^Vhrn     these     arc     gone     by     with 

their  glories. 
U'hal  shall  r.st  of  thee  then,  what 

remain    . 

Thr  play  Is  not  al  all  a  com- 
rorting  thing.  But  it  will  make 
>-au  think.  And  In  that  it  attacks

thus  far  attacked:  the  vulgarity 
of   Intellectual   sterility

prietor of  a  market  in  Ihe  colored 
aeclinn.  is  the  brother  of  Nick. 
'ind  John  suffered  badly  at  the 
hands  of  boycott-minded  citizens 
before  11^ waa  lenrncd  that  John 
Buono  had  no  connection  with 
bi.s  brother's  enterprise  and  In- 
'Je<-d.  had  fallen  out  with  him  be- 
cauiie    of    the    beer    garden    matter. 

The  trouble  started  in  tbia  pic- 
lureaque  city  on  t'^i.Tay  when  in  a 
two-column  display  advertisement 
in  the  San  Diego  Sun.  a  daily  pa* 
per.  announcing  the  opening  of 
the  l>ot  r  garden.  .Nick  Buono 
cau.aed  to  be  inserted.  "NO  NE'

Keeling  ran  high  Crowds  col- 
lected around  tbe  beer  garden 
which  is  nn  Imperial  Street,  and 
two  police  cara  stood  by  for  fear 
of    .'•eriou.',    trouble. 

Rumor  had  It  that  John  Buono. 
whose  market  is  just  a  block  from 
thf  beer  gaidcn.  was  financing  it. 
There  was  immediate  talk  of  boy- 
cotting John  Buono  and  people, 
without  waitinK  for  this  action, 
started  doing  their  buying  else- 
where 

Some  people,  however,  did  not 
l>elieve  that  John  Buono  was  the 
type  of  man  who  would  publicly 
inault  (>eople.  a.s  Nick  Buono  had 
They  knew  that  John  Buono  had 
for  yeitrs  employed  a  full-time 
colored  clerk  and  that  he  was 
vice  president  of  the  local  Race 
Rclalioo.s  society 

Tue.aday  night  at  a  citisens' 
ma-aa  meoting.  John  Buono  spoke. 
pleading  with  his  colored  friends 
for  their  belief  and  trust  Buono 
the  next  day  posted  an  advertise- 
ment in  the  loi^al  pa^iers  offering 
KM>  to  anyone  who  could  prove 
that  he  had  any  connection  with 
Nick    Buono'a    beer    garden 

An  attempt  was  made  by  Nick 
Buono  to  refuse  .*er\ice  lo  col- 
ored patrons  for  a  few  nights  but 
he  quickly  decided  to  change  his 
tactics  aa  well  as  deny  responsi-

appeared    In    the    San    Diego    Sun

that  the  Texas  U.  S  Attorney 
acknowledged  receipt  of  the  docu-

To  this  letter  Mr  White  has 
replied:  "We  hand  you  herewith 
affidavits  of  Messrs,  J  W  Lowe

that  Mr  Cooke  declares,  under

had  any  Instructions  from  VVash-

it  is  apparent  either  that  his

or  he.   in    plain   language,   lied. 

"We  submit  that  this  would  ap-

BISHOP  JOHNSOt 
ANNOUNCES  NEW  i 
M.  E.  APPOINTM^ 


'Tuskegee  or  Nothing'  is  U.  S.  Edict 


NEW  YORK.  Sept  21  In  a 
letter  to  President  Roo.sevelt  to- 
day. Walter  White,  secretary  of 
the  National  Association,  scored 
Ihe  jjm  crow  policy  of  the  Vet- 
erans Administration  which  in- 
sist.., that  Negro  physicians  seek- 
ing appointment  can  secure  it  only 
at  the  Tuskegee  Veterans  Hospi- 
tal He  urged  the  president  to 
Instruct  the  Veterans  Adminis- 
tration that  appointments  should 
be  maile  on  basis  of  merit  and 
that  any  rule,  written  or  unwrit- 
ten, which  confines  the  .services 
of  (lualified  Negro  physicians  and 
surgeons  to  the  Tuskegee  hospital 
be  immediately  abandoned  He 
warned  the  President  that  "if  the 
Veterans  Administration  is  per- 
mitted to  pursue  sut  h  a  policy 
there  will  be  widespread  re- 
sentment among  Negroes  and 
fair-minded  white  people  through- 
out   the    i-ounlry  " 

'The  Veterans  Administration.' 
Mr.  While  continued,  "either  for- 
get. 0  rignores  the  fact  that 
moneys  for  the  support  of  the 
Administration  are  gained  hy  the 
taxing  of  Negro  Americans  <s 
well  as  while  Americans.  II  ("r 
gets  a.  well  that  Negroes  l<iiiglit

wholly  Inconsistent  with  thr  hiRh 
principlea  of  Democracy  .t-  mwn 
elated    by    yoursslf " 


The  Negro  surgeon  who  has 
been  barred  from  appointment 
anywhere  except  al  the  Tuskegee 
Veterans  Hospital,  is  Dr  Jesse  J. 
Greene.  1864  "th  Avenue.  New 
Vork  City  On  September  28.  1933, 
he  took  the  United  States  Civil 
Service  examination  for  Medical 
Officer,  was  qualified  and  placed 
on  the  eligible  list  for  appoint- 
ment. He  became  No.  3  on  tbe 
list  for  General  Surgery  in  the 
State  of  New  York  with  the  Vet- 
erans Administration  and  the 
Public  Health  Service  While  the 
Veterans  Administration  through 
Charles  M  Griffith.  Medical  Di-' 
rector,  and  Gen  FVank  T.  Hlnes. 
Administrator,  has  admitted  Dr 
Green's  eligibility  for  aaetfament. 
It  .lays  he  can  secure  appointment 
only  at  the  Tuskegee  hospital  Dr. 
Greene  had  requested  considera- 
tion for  appointment  al  the  Vrt- 
rrwis  Administration  Facility. 
Bronx.  New  York  City,  becauu  of 
iU  proximity  lo  bis  home.  Both 
Administrator  Hlnes  and  Director 
Griffith  admit  that  "Civil  Service 
rules  and  regulations  do  not  elim- 
inate colored  physician,  for  cerli- 
rtcation  or  for  consideration  for 
iksalgnmenls  al  stations  other  than 
Tuskegee,  Ala ."  and  yet  they 
both  state  that  "Dr  Greene  will 
be  considered  for  appoinlmrnl  to

^^uished    military    and    professional 
.  career     In    a    previous    letter    wril- 
I  ten      to     President      Roosevelt      on 
August    23.   Mr.    White    pointed    out 
that     the     Negro     surgeon     served 
'  through    the    World    War    as    fir* 
lieutenant     in     the     U      S      Army: 
that    he   is    a   graduate   of   Western 
Reserve    and    Howard    Universities, 
that    he    is  a   graduate  of   the   Har- 
lem   Hospital    staff   and    "has    done 
iliKlingulshed    work     in     the    treat- 
ment   of   skull    fractures   and    brain 
injuries.    The    nature    of    this    work 
'  lind     conclusions     based      upon      It 
'  have      profoundly      influenced      tbe 
whole      treatment     of     skull     frac- 
tures   and    brain    Injuries     Articles 
on    the    work    done    by    Dr    Greene 
and    his    associates    have    appeared 
in    such    medical    journals    as    the 
Archives   of  Surgery." 

Mr  While  declared  today  that 
this  incident  furnishes  further  evi- 
dence of  the  evils  of  segregation 
and  how  the  Negro"s  progress  is  , 
frequently  handicapped  by  the 
exiatance  of  segregated  instilu-  , 
tions  supported  by  the  taxes  of 
all    Americans

SUEVIV  AL  OF   THE   EFFICIENT 

"  '*"■  By  Juhii  KuHNey 

MOST  men  at  some  stage  in  life  speak  a 
—'lasting    truth,    although    their    philoso- 
ifhka  o!    theorieii  of  life  j;iiay   not  be  ac- 
cepted in  tot.0.  "The  survival  of  the  fittest" 
lUMl  been  well  depicted  by  Darwin,  in  his 
Origin  of  Si«cics.  And  it  is  classic  that  the 
Efficient  Few  survive.  They  create  a  new 
4|^ecies.  Thes  aiove  life  a  step  higher. 
...    In  the  Darv.-inian  sense  most  individu- 
als.o  fany  '-j>,cv^'  r^"'"-?  a-'c  c::ac'.'.y  alike. 
They,  do    i.oi.    change.    They    leave    their 
grou]>  prcC'scly   r'.s   Uiey   found   it.   But   a 
few  VJK  diflcient.  Sane  are  a  bit  weaker. 
TTiey    perinii.    Some    are    a    bit    3t.x)nger. 
They  survive  ajid  nourish.  And  these  few 
win  lift  tht  life  of  the  group  to  a  higher 
I^ane. 

l^ogress  cones  through  improvement, 
not  by  imitiition  nor  routine.  A  large  busi- 
■  ness  must  be  kept  mobile  and  alert,  quick 
to  change  and  improve  with  changing  con- 
ditioi'iS.  In  com  nou  parlance,  this  means 
that  the  busineiis  man  who  does  what  all 
other  busjj'iess  mm  do,  is  likely  to  lose  his 
trade.  It  means  that  success  comes  to  the 
one  whti  dares  something  different — some- 
thing bettT  thai;  hie  comixJtitors.  He  is 
the  superior  individual  who  adopts  im- 
proved methods  and  ideas,  who  has  been 
TfeU  born  and  trained  and  who  is  aggres- 
sive and  not  easily  beaten. 

Tragic  it  is,  that  the  efficient  few  are 
fiuiuehed  solely  because  they  differ  from 
tbe  mass.  Institutions  are  often  designed 
'or  this  purp<3se^to  penalize  the  fit  and  to 
enable  tlie  unfit  to  survive.  Barriers  are 
often  erected  against  ability  in  the  form 
of  substitutes,  making  it  possible  for  weak 
and  iriferior  men  to  rise  to  the  top — some 
actually  btxiome  leaders. 

Substitutes  for  ability  that  we  fre- 
quently find  are,  wealth,  age,  and  birth. 
Many  have  fortunes  which  they  did  not 
Mim,  and  others  may  make  a  fortune  by 
stroke  of  luck.  As  wealth  is  power,  these 
men  become  influential  whether  competent 
or  not.  But  ownership  is  non-educative,  in 
tQIOany  instances  given  authority  without 
Knowledge,  enabling  those  who  possess  it 
WTCUle  over  people  who  are  more  compe- 
ternH  and  worthy  than  themselves. 

Age  is  one  of  the  best  supported  sub- 
stitutes for  ability.  Nf.turaily,  there  should 
be  a  resjfect  for  age,  but  it  should  never 
be  coiifounded  v/ith  ability.  It  has  its  vir- 
tues and  its  defects,  and  there  is  no  valid 
reason  why  it  ..hould  be  associated  with 
wisdom.  Age  looks  back,  not  forward.  It 
dcpsDda  nore  uixjn  the  memory  than  upon 
S^.licaln.  It  serves  most  to  anchor  a 
IM^  XQ  bid  ideas  and  customs,  being  al- 
tttmt  invariably  opposed  to  improvements, 
•••flirth  or  hercdity  as  a  substitute  for 
■Ultty  is  uncertain,  flimsy,  and  unreliable. 
01m  son  iti  d.  too-  may  be  \  is-o  and  the  son 
itA\,iaa  ar  may  !  •:  a  foci.  Cut  oocr.usc 
rtf  this  principL-  of  h^  redity,  all  manner 
iqjf'  Weak,  trashy  jwoplc  have  been  held 
fttt  tit  the  head  of  a  nation  or  group. 
'-  These  three  obstructive  substitutes  for 
Umty  are  more  or  less  protected  by  a 
glUlior  that  makes  it  difficult  for  us  to 
VMt  dearly  huw  obstructive  they  are.  But 
iWe  must  always  be  a  struggle  and  the 
0^[|perior  individuals  should,  for  the  benefit 
itf-kiho  mass,  be  set  free  to  improve  and  in- 
aud  develop.

ffib  yroxid  boa^Ung^  of  our  Negro  brethren 
ft&at  East  and  South.  (Or  is  it  just 
•^Bbfif?)  We  have  been  regaled  with  sto- 
(les  of  monumental  Negro  enterprises  and 
lbl4p^  Negr(>  businesses  in  other  parts  of . 
OMOOuntr)'.  We  have  been  told  about  how 
"back    there"    and    "down    there" 


prising  the  states  of  Arkansas,  Louisiana, 
<^)klahunia,  and  Texas  there  are  2,281,951 
i  Negiocs  and  4,883  stores  owned  by  Ne- 
groes, or  one  store  to  every  467  Negroes. 
In  I  he  l-^st  SouUi  Central  States,  com- 
prlsiW;!  the  states  of  Alabama,  Kentucky, 
.Mi83is8ip^>i.  and  Tennessee,  there  are  2,- 
P58,23S  Negroes  and  4,359  stores  own«^ 
by  Negroes,  or  approxim^itely  one  store  to 
eVeJt^  Q0$  Negroes.

ing'the  states  of  Delaware,  District  of 
Colliiiiilu.'v.  Florida.  Georgia.  Maryland, 
''.o:i;.  tjt'Qiina,  South  Carolina,  Virginia, 
ijf^  \Vcr;t  Virginii',  there  are  4,421,  388 
N^rpes  and  9,622  stores  owned  by  Ne- 
(jrocs,  Or  approximately  one  store  for  ev- 
••'■yi4-">l  Negroes. 

la  thn  Pacific  States,  comprising  the 
--'^ates  of  California,  Washington,  and  Ore- 
ion,  there  are  90.122  Negroes  and  294 
^tore.s  owned  by  Negroes,  or  approximate- 
ly ope  store  for  every  306  Negroes.  In  Cal- 
ifornia, there  arc  81,044  Negroes  and  262 
stores  owned  by  Negroes,  or  approximate- 
ly one  store  for  every  309  Negroes. 

A  glance  at  these  figures  will  show 
more  business  per  Negro  in  California 
*han  in  the  parts  of  the  country  where 
.segfc^dtion  is  more  intense  and  about 
^'hich  the  most  disputes  arise.  Far  be  it 
from  me  to  attempt  to  belittle  the  enter- 
prise and  courage  of  Negroes  operating 
bxisineases  in  the  South  or  East,  but  this 
is  a  plea  for  more  appreciation  of  the 
courage  and  enterprise  of  Negroes  who 
operate  businesses  in  the  Pacific  States, 
>vhere,  since  segi-egation  is  less,  competi-  QM  TjjC  VPT 
tion  with  businesses  run  by  whites  is  pro-  I L 1 1 

portionately  greater. 

Furthermore,  let  those  who  fail  to  un- 
derstand the  disadvantages  of  separate 
schools,  ponder  these  figures.

l>enefits  for  the  entire  population 
.Mlunta  has  been  a  pioneer  along 
many  progressive  lines,  and  it  is 
only  fitting  that  the  city  which 
has  been  a  leader  in  inler-racial 
cooperation  .should  insist  that  all 
paru  ot  Its  population  should 
benefit  from  this  new  social  ven- 
ture This  reflects  the  spirit  of 
'he  New  Deal  We  know,  from 
>ad  experience,  that  when  one 
section  or  group  of  the  population 
Iluuri.shes  at  the  expense  of  oth- 
.rs.  it  is  not  lung  before  the  whole 
country    is    the    loser 

W'e  have  learned  that  it  is  for 
ilie  economic  benefit  of  the  whole 
country  for  all  divisions  to  be 
pro.sperouK.  that  discrimination 
against  a  section,  a  race,  a  relig- 
ion or  an  occupation  is  harmful 
to  ^e  people  as  a  whole  and  dia- 
turbing  to  any  atempts  to  work 
out     a    balanced    economy'. 

Secretary  Ickes,  who  came  to 
.Atlanta  for  the  ceremonies,  enter- 
ed the  platform  on  the  Spelman 
College  Campus  at  9:40  oclork  and 
as  the  assembly  cheered,  was 
greeted  by  President  John  Hope, 
chairman  of  the  University  bous- 
ing advi.sory  committee,  who  pre- 
sided The  Doxology  was  sung, 
and  Colonel  A  T.  Walden  wel- 
comed the  Secretary  and  his  par- 
ty, including  Colonel  Horatio  B. 
Hackett,  director  of  the  housing 
division  of  the  PWA,  and  the  ar-

joined  in  the  singing  of  the  Negro 
National  Anthem,  "Lift  every 
Voice  and  Sing"  under  the  direct- 
ion of  Profesor  Kemper  Harreld. 
The  Secretary  was  introduced  by 
President  Hope  as  one  who  "foV 
many  years  worked  for  a  square 
deal  a  New  Deal,  a  common  nat- 
ional honesty  that  would  guaran-

and  broad  freedom  for  all  men 
whether  white  or  black".  The  Sec-

HOWARD  U.  CHARGED 
WITH  RACIAL  BAR  IN 
MEDICALDEPT. 


WASHINGTON  ( EX  I— Although 
Jewish  philanthropists  have  given 
huge  sums  for  the  maintenance  of 
Howard  University  and  a  Jew  is 
chairman  of  its  Board  of  Trustees, 
the  startling  disclo.sures  that  dis- 
I  crimination  against  Jewish  stu- 
'  dents  seeking  entrance  into  the 
_ medical  department  is  being  prac- 
tised,  was   made  this   week. 

According    to    information    from 

an      authoritative      source.     Jewish 

applicants     for     admission     to     the 

Howard    Medical    School    are    being 

I  arbitrarily    rejected. 

Out    of    1.50    applications    for    ad- 

I  ini.ssion  to  the  Medical  School  said 

lo   have    been    made   by   Jews,   only 

six     were     favorably     considered— 

and   two   for   the   Dental    College. 

The  reported  discrimination  is 
all  the  more  staKling  because  Dr. 
Abraham  Flexner,  a  Jew,  is  chair- 
man of   the  board  of  trustees. 

Howard  University  is  a  quasi- 
Government  in.stitutlon.  It  is  sup- 
ported chiefly  by  Federal  appro- 
priations The  Medical  School 
building  was  erected  through  a 
Federal    appropriation    of    $900,000. 

Tn  the  Medical  School  endow- 
ment fund  of  (523,153,  Julius  Roa- 
enwalil,  a  Jew,  contributed  $2S,00() 
of  the  $2SO,nno  the  university  had 
to  raise  to  meet  the  conditional 
offer  of  the  General  Education 
Board,  which  gave  t2!M,000  toward 
Ihe   fund. 

The  university  has  aiao  received 
grants  from  the  Julius  Roaenwsld 
Fund.  In  tbe  flacai  year  ending 
June  30,  193b,  the  fund  gcve  the 
university  $70,606.  tt  also  made  a 
grant  of  $86,000  to  the  university 
for  the  development  ot  the  depart- 
ment of  loolonr. 

Jews  and  colored  perfons  often 
are  discriminated  agaast  in  medi- 
cal schools  of  eastern  universities 
because  of  prejudice  against  their 
doing  clinical  work  la  obatetrics 
and  gynecology.

had  t«  lick  the  referee  a«

The  iHii.t  ended  with  the

ref  taiil  Sp-j.les  struck  at 
him,  but  the  boxer  denied 
the    charges.

Membership   X'«mp«igo     Launched 

With  the  goal  set  at  MK)  mem- 
bers, the  Membership  Campaign 
of  Linden  Branch  was  sent  on  its 
way  at  a  "kick-off"  luncheon 
meeting,  Thursday,  September  27, 
at  the   y.   W.   C.   A. 

The  campaign  is  being  carried 
out  in  the  form  of  building  a 
Linden  Branch  Bay  Bri<|ge."  Mr. 
U.  S.  Griggs,  superintendent  of 
the  Golden  State  Insurance  Com- 
pany, was  very  appropriately  se- 
lected as  speaker  by  Chief  Engitf^ 
eer,  Mrs.  W.  A.  Qordpn,  who  is 
campaign    manager. 

Mr.  Griggs,  after  firing  the 
workers  with  enthusiasm  and  pep, 
pointed  out  some_  of  the  prerequi- 
sites for  reaching  the  goal,  listing 


the   Western   Front",   wrote   of   her    as    most    important:    perseverance, 


that  she  was:  "a  ravishing  figure 
of  the  eternal  enigma,  the  most 
beautiful  panther,  and  the  breath 
from  the  jungle,  elementary  force 
and  beauty  for  weary  western  ci- 
vilization." She  receives  more 
space  in  French  newspapM^^  than 
does  the  President  of  the  Repub- 
lic. Reams  of  copy  are  hammered 
through  typestrriten  by  infatuated 
drama  critics,  dealing  with  hef 
"luminous  voice",  her  "evocation 
of  early  African  sculpture",  her 
"lubricious    symbolism". 

Miss  Baker  loves  her  work  and 
spends  most  of  her  time  study- 
ing her  ipb.  A*  a  result  of  sever- 
al years  of  such  living,  she  can 
now  do  almost  anything  you  can 
name  in  the  way  of  eccentric  and 
dificult  dance  paterns.  She  has  a 
lovely  high  clear  voic;—  at>(l  can 
put  over  a  song  in  a  way  that 
few  can  egual.  She  has  an  vxtra- 
ordinary  sense  of  stage  style  and 
erotic  rhythm.  She  speaks  four 
languages:  French,  Italian,  and 
German  I>eside8  her  native  tongue. 

Today  Miss  Baker  is  Europe's 
ideal  of  an  American  Negro  enter- 
tainer, probably  because  Europe 
knows  so  little  about  Am6rlcaDa 
and  Negroes.  After  her  seasons 
of  Old  World  theatrical  discipline 
in  Paris,  Madrid  and  Berlin  Amer- 
ioans  find  her  as  foreign  and  as 
fascinating  an  actress  as  if  she 
had  never  seen  the  U.  S.  but  had 
been  born  abroad.  To  them  she  i( 
exoitic,  original.  Not  at  all  the 
Broadway    type    that    many    Euro- 


hope,  confidence,   faith,   industry. 

To  the  surprise  of  the  workers, 
and  much  to  their  delight,  Mr. 
Griggs  announced  that  be  and 
Mrs.  Griggs  would  be  the  donors 
of  a  silver  loving  cup  to  be  award- 
ed to  the  engineer  bringing  in  the 
largest  amount  over  her  goal. 

The  luncheon  was  excellently 
prepared  and  served  by  tbe  social 
committee.  caoslatlDg  of  Mrs.  Ter- 
esa House,  chairman,  Mrs.  I.  Has- 
kell, and  Miss  T.  Brooks.  It  was 
tasty,  well-planned  and  promptly 
served.

Tbe  Paramount  Bridge  Clujs  of 
San  Francisco  entertained  the 
bridge  clubs  of  the  Bast  Bay 
cities  ou  Saturday  evening,  in  a 
contract  bridge  tournament  at  the 
home  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thomas  H. 
Andrews,  Greenwich  Street,  San 
Fri^cisco. 

The  following  clubs  participated 
in  tbe  tournament,  each  club  be- 
ing represented  by  two  teams: 

San  Francisco — Jolly  Bights  and 
Paramounts 

Oakland-  Merry  Wives,  Mon- 
archs.  Benedicts,  Dunbars,  and 
Straight   Eights. 

The  play  was  progressive  by 
team  partnerships  and  first  prize 
was  won  by  the  teams  of  the 
Straight  Bights,  which  Lcams 
amassed  u  total  score  of  8040 
points  in  tbe  play  of  24  hands, 
with  the  Monarchs  runners-up 
with  a  total  score  of  7720  points, 
and  the  Merry  Wives  in  third 
spot  with  a  total  score  of  7160 
points. 

The  play  of  the  team  of  Mrs. 
Ann  Powell  and  Mrs.  Stewart, 
representing  the  Merry  ,Wlves, 
was  worthy  of  special  mention. 
This  team  was  assigned  No.  1 
table  at  the  beginning  of  the  tour- 
nament and  defeated  all  comers  to 
that  table,  except  for  tbe  last  four 
hands.  Going  into  the  last  hxind  of 
the  fifth  round  1400  points  behind 
the  very  strong  Paramount  team 
of  Messrs.  Dave  Haskell  amd  Ros- 
coe  Hulsey,  this  team  bid  and 
made  a  grand  slam,  vulnerable,  to 
win  that  tabl«.  The  Merry  Wives 
must  be  reckoned  witb  iu  all  fu- 
ture  tournaments. 

The  Jolly  Bights,  a  ladies'  club 
of  San  Francisco,  made  a  very 
creditable  showing.  considering 
that  this  was  tbeir  first  experi- 
ence   at   tournament    play. 

The  men's  teams  participating 
were  comprised  of  many  «f  the 
"big  shots"  in  the  local  contract 
bridge  world,  including  the  teams 
of  Ban  Francisco's  own  Para- 
mount Club,  which  won  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.  silver  championship  tro- 
phy cup  for  the   year  of  1982   and

Witli  the  first  milestones  set 
thing.s  .irc  now  beginning  to  take 
their  forms,  according  to  various 
reports  But  the  cry  is  still  for 
mo^e  Mii'n,  and  more  co-operation 
on  the  part  of  those  who  are 
enrolled  Both  are  very  necessary 
to  continue  the  work  '  started. 
Those  u'orkmg  with  Mr.  Watkins 
ure  beiii^  paid  through  the  gov- 
ernmeni  project  financing,  and 
can  only  be  retained  through  the 
cooperation  of  each  and  every 
person. 

At  :i  meeting  held  last  week, 
consisting  of  the  older  boys.  It 
was  cle.irly  explained  that  the  Y. 
ff..  C.  A  is  to  be  the  center  of  all 
"X"  .iffiiirs.  Which  means  all 
group.s  claiming  any  connection 
with  the  "Y"  must  hold  its  busi- 
ness meetings  at  the  "Y"  and 
must  meet  at  least  twice  a  month 
including  the  business  meeting,  at 
tbe  "Y".  Only  those  doing  this 
will  be  ullowed  to  use  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  name  or  colors.  This  ruling 
will    itpply    to    all   groups. 

Coach  William  (BiJI)  Cowes  has 
be^n  quite  pleased  witb  tbe  work 
of  the  Basketball  squad  thus  far 
the  .>iea80;n.  A  few  more  can- 
didates are  needed  to  try  out  be- 
fore tbe  squad  of  regulars  will  be 
chosen  For  this  purpose,  a  meet- 
ing will  be  held  at  the  "Y"  Fri- 
day, Sept  28,  at  7  oclock.  All 
members  of  this  squad  and  former 
members  of  hte  Hi  "Y"  groups 
are  asked  to  attend.  Plans  for 
raising  money  to  buy  the  necess- 
ary ecquipment  will  be  gone  over. 
Also  plans  for  the  remainder  of 
1934  and  the  opening  of  1935  will 
be   discussed.

LABOR  AT  TI1K  CROSSROADS 

AS  YOU  READ  THIS,  history  is  being 
made  by  the  American  Federation  of 
Labor  at  its  54th  Annual  Convention  here 
in  San  Frartcisco.  What  is  being  said  and 
done  at  this  convention  will  be  reflected  in 
the  {xtlitical  and  economic  structure  of 
this  nation  a  century  hence.  ; 

Merc  words  are  not  the  most  accurate 
indications  of  the  importance  of  this  con- 
vention. Time  and  again  has  the  nation 
heard  delegates  introduce  impassioned  res- 
olutions favoring  .the  30-hour  working 
week,  minimum  wage  rates,  old  age  j^en- 
sions,  unemployment  insurance,  and  de- 
nouncing child  labor,  company  unions,  and 
ra<ial  discrimination.  These  declarations 
arc  neither  new  nor  unexpected.  Their  as- 
sertion by  labor  spokesmen  has  always 
been  aco-pted  as  a  matter  of  course.  They 
have  be<.ome  incorjjorated  in  the  body  of 
customary  American  ballyhoo,  and  are  a 
reference  work  for  every  politician,  dema- 
gogue, and  reformer  who  seeks  an  easy 
"■\  entrance  to  the  people's  favor. 

It  is  rather  what  is  taking  place  within 
the    labor    movement    itself    that    reveals 
-^  lat>or's   important   part  in  the  determina- 

tion of  coming  events.  Of  the  several  ma- 
j<»r  trends  clearly  visible  among  the  many 
isolated  expressions  of  local  attitude  and 
"^  ix»licy,  those  pointing  toward  the  increas- 

ing militancy  and  solidarity  of  the  Ameri- 
can working  class  are  most  significant. 

Will  trade  unionism  continue  in  its 
traditional  role  as  a  conservative  social 
force?  I'erhups  not!  For  both  the  nature 
and  nuiiilxr  of  resolutions  introduced  dur- 
ing the  first  two  days  of  the  Convention 
,  indicate  a  radical  departure  from  the  old 

t^  )x)licy  of  expediency.  One  is  impelled  to 
leel  that  a  new  crop  of  leaders  will  no 
longer  be  satisfied  with  compromise.  In- 
sistence on  the  30-hour  week,  despite  the 
krtowledge  that  it  would  be  fought  by  the 
government;  declarations  for  government 
ownership  of  trtephone  and  telegraph  util- 
ities, for  immediate  and  decisive  federal 
action  against  the  company  union — these 
demands  do  not  come  from  the  old  stand- 
patters. They  come  from  a  leadership  risen 
from  and  chosen  by  the  rank-and-filers.  It 
is  perhaps  safe  to  predict  that  these  new 
leaders  will  not  be  satisfied  with  tempo- 
rary and  unsubstantial  gains.  They  will 
positively  not  be  duped  by  government 
spokesmen  of  the  brand  of  the  lamented 
General  Hugh  Johnson! 

It  is  apparent  too  that  lalwr  has  at 
Last  awakened  to  its  need  for  solidarity, 
for  a  closing  of  ranks.  Resolutions  favor- 
ing the  industrial  linion  and  declaring  for 
the  abolition  of  racial  discrimination  have 
been  introduced  at  previous  conventions, 
but  with  much  less  awareness  of  the  im- 
mediate necessity  for  action  in  these  mat- 
ters. It  may  be  that  the  new  leadership, 
sensing  the  temper  of  the  times,  realizes 
that  the  iron  is  now  white-hot,  ready  for 
\he  hammer. 

If  these  r'  ervpt.ions  are  correct  and 
American  la'ou.-  actually  presents  a  solid, 
uncompromising  front  to  capital  and  gov- 
ernment, any  sweeping  social  changes  in 
this  country  may  be  postponed  indefinite- 
ly. On  the  other  hand,  if  reactionaries  win 
out  at  the  convention,  the  American  Fed- 
eration of  Labor  will  lose  much  of  its  ef- 
fectiveness as  a  pressure  organization  in 
the  nation's  affairs.  It  is  not  necessarily 
true  that  this  last-named  consequence  will 
jeopardize  further  those  fundamental  lit>- 
jertiefl  of  the  common  man,  always  prom- 
ised but  never  secured.

SINCIJUR'S  CHANCES 

SINCE  THE  POLITICAL  persuasion  of 
most  citizens  resolves  itself  to  a  matter 
of  which  candidate  seems  most  likely  to 
win  an  election,  the  chances  of  Upton  Sin- 
diir  for  tiecomftig  Governor  of  California 
py  at  this  time  the  uppermost  position 
it  ths  public  curiosity.  How  probable  is 
s  victilry? 

Suaiy,  no  sane  person  can  rely  on 
lions  either  of  the  Sinclair  camp 
opponents.  It  is  good  strategy,  as 
-'li^Wiy  fOJitidaa   knows,   to   inspire  conTi- 
JiMM*  ia  the  wavering  voter;  and  no  state- 
tJlMnt  more  quickly  persuades  the  faint- 
jMtftMl  than  a  bold,  lMuiggerat«d  estimate 
ft  l>|^*  lOorn  strsngth.

deed,  this  was  not  hard  to  believe,  consid- 
ering the  man's  background.  We  heard 
that  he  and  Joe  Stalin  were  in  cahoots — in 
fact,  that  the  two  6f  them  planned  to  di- 
vide Atnerlfca  between  them  after  Upton 
was  elected.  This  ♦irad  a  bit  difficult  to 
fi\vafl6w,  but  a  lt<-ge  number  of  people 
gulped  it  down.  Mr.  Sinclair  won  the  nom- 
inal iJbti. 

Now  *ve  are  b6ihg  told  that  the  demo- 
cratit  nonunee,  in  addition  to  being  a  low- 
down  dirty  "R*d,"  is  also  ^  scoundrel  and 
a  liar  and  will  probably  walk  out  with  the 
CaplLoi  in  his  vest-pocket  if  he  is  elected.

THE  SPOKESMAN 


It's  So  Wonderful  How 
Father  Divine  Sways 

By  Sybyl  Suidford 

When  the  Garden  of  Eklen  becomes  the  Garden  of  Eat- 
ing tjtd  the  pun  celestial,  it  is  sad  commentary  to  the  doc- 
trines of  our  modem  civilization,  says  an  article  written  by 
Ucnel  Lievick  in  the  October  "Forum."  This  is  the  doctrine 
of  Father  Divine,  who,  though  he  does  not  claim  deity,  does 
not  deny  the  attribution,  saying  merely,  "I  teach  that  God 
has  the  right  to  manifest  Himself  through  any  person  or 
thing  that  he  may  choose."

History 

In  the  Making 


Week    of    October    12.    1934 


HOW  IMMINENT  is  the  threat  of 
death  and  mutilation  to  millions  of  Eu- 
ixjpe's  ooinnion  people  glared  frt)m  head- 
lines again  this  week  when  news  that 
^ing  Alexandei-  of  YiigoHlavia  had|  been 
assaiviinaled  on  French  soil  inspired  ugly 
i'limora  of  troops  mobilizing  on  Balkan 
frontiers,  SK'nt  diplomats  scurrying  to 
await  orders,  provoked  hurried  confer- 
ences of  excited  statp  ministers.  Small 
reassurance  came  with  the  news  that  the 
assassin  was  also  a  Yugoslav,  that  Mus- 
solini had  renewed  his  offer  of  concilia- 
tion with  the  little  Balkan  kingdom.  Mean- 
while, officials  of  the  U.S.  Department 
of.^  State  were  seeking  to  determine  to 
what  extent  the  assassination  might  af- 
fect the  forthcomiiig  naval  conversations 
in  Ijondon  and  the  general  plans  for 
di8armainer\t.  Obviously,  the  entire  sys- 
tem of  hallyh(M>  with  which  the  American 
people  is  to  be  liyjinotized  into  an  atti- 
tude of  belligcix'iit  (Mitriotisni  must  be 
re-shapc^d.  Thin  week's  war-scare  will  be 
used  at  home  to  defend  the  administra- 
tion's gigantic  naval  program,  abroad  to 
substantiate  the  oveitures  of  senile  and 
hypocritical  "statesmen"  in  their  demands 
tor  the  other  fellow's  disarmament. 

REVELATIONS  MADE  public  at  the 
recent  hearings  of  the  Senate  Committee 
investigating  munition  transactions  ought 
to  dispel  any  hopes  for  peace  cherished  by 
the  American  people.  Despite  organized 
pressure  to  quash  the  hearings,  they  con- 
tinued long  ii'.'U'^h  for  one  disquieting 
fact  to  be  made  apparent  to  all  who 
wish  to  see:  the  War  Department's  pro- 
gram for  the  defense  of  American  soil 
is  really  a  program  of  aggression  in  Asia 
©r  Europe.  As  one  writer  put  it,  "the 
armament  industry  has  fomented  war 
scares,  sold  instruments  of  death  to  both 
sides  in  civil  wars  and  in  international 
irars,  bribed  government  officials  at  home 
tod  abroad,  blocked  armament  embar- 
goes, disregarded  treaties  of  peace,  inter- 
fered with  disarmament  conferences,  lob- 
bied for  armament  programs,  employed 
spies  in  foreign  armies,  used  army  and 
navy  officers  as  sales-promotion  agents, 
profiteered  at  the  expense  of  govern- 
ments, participated  in  secret  international 
agreements  for  splitting  profits  and  di- 
viding world  markets,  and  sold  patents 
and  secret  designs  to  foreign  countries", 
not  only  for  profits,  but  also  because  of 
It*  role  in  the  systems  of  militarists.  On 
DO  other  basis  can  the  "helpfulness"  of 
the  US.  War  I">epartment  in  armament 
negotiations  be  explained.  All  of  which 
m  convincing  proof  that  the  3000  dele- 
gates to  the  U.S.  Congress  against  War 
and  Fascism,  which  met  last  week  in 
Chicago,  must,  if  they  are  in  earnest, 
invoke  much  more  potent  weapons  than 
the  protest.  They  will  have  need  of  every 
iftstrument  of  education  and  pressure  now 
biting  used  effectively  by  organized  labor 
and  other  under-privileged  groups.  Even 
UM^n.  the  outlook  is  far  from  encouraging. 

,•:  VIOLKNCE  OK  A  different  brand. 
I^haiw  justifiable  if  any  violence  can 
ke  called  that,  flared  this  week  in  other 
irorld  capitalM.  Madrid  reported  the  sup- 
I^Q^uiion  of  a  SorialiHt-Comnuinist-Syndi- 
l^tt  revolt,  and  if  the  use  of  every  en- 
ids0  of  hunum  destruction  known  to  man 


in  order  to  niunlor  1.300  Pcii»mta.  maim 
J,900  more  ,aiid  throw  thousands  behind 
bars  give-s  the  Conservative  Party  added 
assurance  of  security,  the  revolt  has  been 
suppressed  in  fact.  But  tlie  increasing 
unity  in  leftist  ranks  and  the  sporadic, 
determined  character  of  the  outbreaks 
indicate  that  the  government  knows  that 
it  must  revive  Inquisitorial  measures  if 
it  would  stamp  out  the  people's  aversion 
to  a  Spanish  Hitler  or  Mussolini.  Not  so 
in  Havana!  Another  revolution  threatened 
to  .succeed  the  general  strike  which  ter- 
rorized investors  in  Cuban  industries  this 
wei'k.  No  unity  seems  probable  among 
the  inhabitants  of  Uncle  Sam's  little 
neighbor.  Moreover,  it  is  doubtful  if  a 
successful  coup  d'etat  by  Revolutionary 
Party  leader  Grau  San  Martin  will  bring 
r>eace  to  the  unhappy  island.  Perhaps 
there  is  some  truth  in  the  opinion  held 
by  many  that  any  dictator  will  last  in 
Cuba  so  long  as  he  lasts  in  the  esteem 
of    certain    American    interests! 

TOP   PLACE  in    the   week's   history- 
making    news    in    the    United    States    was 
shared    by   the   Fifty-fourth   Annual   Con- 
vention   of    the    American    Federation    of 
Labor   with    final   Textile   Strike   develop- 
ments    and     President     Roosevelt's     new 
NRA  set-up.  Though  the  President  sought 
to   pacify    restless   business   interests   and 
encourage    labor    at    one    and    the    same 
time  in  his  September  30  "fireside  chat", 
it    is    doubtful    if    he    did    either.    Despite 
his  iteration  of  100/f  American  principles, 
"the  driving  jjower  of  individual  initiative 
and   the  incentive  of  fair  private  profit," 
despite  too  his  choice  of  six  conservatives 
]    on    the    seven-man    board    to    administer 
I    future   NRA    policy,    his   newly   appointed 
I    Director   E>onald    R.    Richberg  of   the   In- 
;    dustrial    Emergency    Committee,    in   oi^er 
to    forestall    an    attempt    by    "blind    reac- 
j    lionaiies"  to  cut  off  all  relief  rolls,  found 
I    it    necessary    to    prophecy    that    such    an 
I    act     would     precipitate     a     revolution     in 
I    thirty  days.    Nevertheless,   spokesmen  for 
I    business  continued   to   mutter   dissatisfac- 
tion  with    the    administration's    "infringe- 
ment  of   American    liberties".    And    labor 
spokesmen    voiced    strong    opposition    to 
the  President's  pix>posed   industrial  truce, 
which  would  necessitate  labor's  relinquish- 
ment  of    its    right    to    strike.    Meanwhile, 
Jcseph    Stalin,    whose    opinions    may    not 
always  be  welcome  but  can   never  be  ig- 
nored, was  praising  the  President's  initia- 
tive   and     courage,    while    deploring    his 
na'thtids.    The    .Soviet    ruler    told    Novelist 
j    H.  Cj.   WoIIs  that  he  was  convinced   that 
l'itv;idenl   Roosevelt  would   I'nil  of  re-elec- 
I    tioii    if    he    tried    actually    to   satisfy    the 
interests  of  the  working  class.   Said  Sec- 
ivtary    Stalin:    "Americans    want    to    do 
away    with    the    crisis    on    the    basis    of 
private  capitalistic  activity,  not  changing 
their  economic  basis,    ,   .   .   Not  one  capi- 
talist   will    ever    agree    to    the    complete 
elimination    of    the    reserve   army    of    im- 
eniployed,    the    purpose    of    which    is    to 
press   on    the    labor    market    and    produce 
cheafi  workers.    You   will    never   persuade 
the  capitalist  to  cause  himself  losses  for 
the  .sake  of  satisfying  the  people's  needs. ' 

GIVE  THE  GRAND  prize  of  univer- 
sal contempt  for  supreme  banality  and 
vicicusness  to  Georgia's  Governor  Eugene 
Talmadge,  who,  in  the  final  stages  of  t^e 
Textile  Strike,  used  the  armed  force  of 
the  state  as  a  strike-breaker,  herding 
"vomfn  pickets  into  wire-enclosed,  sentry- 
patrolled  military  camps,  shooting  male 
strikers  in  the  back,  and  otherwise  aiding 
mill  owners  in  their  attempt  to  starve 
out  workers  already  near  starvation! 
Then  award  to  Francis  Gorman  the  full 
confidence  of  American  labor!  For  if 
Gorman  saw  he  could  not  win  against 
the  combination  of  government  and  em- 
ployers, the  American  people  have  seen 
that  in  leaders  like  Gorman  rests  the 
fate  of  the  common  man.  What  if  the 
union  lost  all  its  demands,  if  its  future 
now  lies  in  the  hands  of  a  reactionary 
board  of  inquiry?  It  has  gained  exper- 
ience in  the  use  of  its  most  powerful 
weapons.  It  has  given  to  the  labor  move- 
ment two  effective  new  stratagems — the 
scaltHi  order  and  the  flying  picket  squad- 
ron. It  has  gained  new  confidence  in  the 
unity  of  its  ranks  and  the  loyalty  of  its 
members.  These  gains,  though  obviously 
not  all  hoped  for,  leave  the  textile  em- 
ployers with  a  doubtful  if  temporary 
victory. 

UNANIMOUS  OPPOSITION  to  the 
open  shop  was  indicated  in  a  series  of 
rew4utions  against  company  unions  adopt- 
ed by  delegates  to  the  Fifty-fourth  An- 
nual l>)nv<iition  of  the  American  Federa- 
tion of  I.Abor  during  the  last  week  of 
the  convention  here.  Yet.  the  convention 
rejected,  over  a  strong  minority  vote,  all 
thirteen  repolutionn  asking  for  approval 
of  the  organization  of  industrial  unions. 
Uj  which  it  is  seen  that  the  Federation 
is   long   on    words    out    short   on   Mtifon,

HASTILY  YOURS

THE    DISCRIMINATION    Bl'GABOO 

rXPULSION  OF  ANY  UNION  violating 
^  the  constitution  of  the  American  Feder- 
ation of  Labor  by  maintaining  the  color 
bar  wa.s  too  drastic  a  step  for  the  54th 
(Donvention  to  take  last  week.  But  the  ova- 
tion given  the  15-minute  speech  of  A  Phil- 
lip Randolph,  who  introduced  this  first 
anti-discriminatory  resolution  with  teeth 
in  it,  is  a  sign  that  white  labor  in  America 
is  fast  realizing  that  it  cannot  be  free  as 
long  as  black  labor  is  enslaved. 

Adoption  by  the  Federation  of  an 
amending  resolution  to  investigate  cases 
of  discrimination  and  report  at  the  next 
convention  leaves  the  next  move  up  to 
.\frainerican  workers.  Obviously,  unless 
opjxirtunity  is  given  unions  to  discrimin- 
ate, there  will  be  nothing  to  rej^rt. 

This  may  seem  strange  to  many,  but 
the  cry  of  "discrimination"  is  frequently 
a  false  alarm.  The  hard  truth  of  the  mat- 
ter is  that  Negroes  show  little  or  no  dis- 
position to  join  the  ranks  of  organized 
lalxir.  .\nd  even  after  they  have  been 
(•oaxed  into  a  union  they  have  to  lie 
liounded  for  dues  and  toii.staiilly  urged  to 
attend  meetings. 

Randolph,  certainly  the  ablest  s(x'ak- 
er  at  the  Convention  and  probably  one  of 
the  shrewdest  men  in  the  labor  movement, 
made  out  a  remarkable  case  for  the  Negro 
worker,  but  he  cannot  win  the  fight  for 
the  entire  group  alone.  He  needs  help,  and 
perhaps  the  most  effective  help  will  be  the 
early  application  by  Negro  workers  for 
i:ien.Ler^hip  in  unions.

ECONOMIC  PROGRAM  OR  ECONOMIC  OROER 


UIITH  idleness,  poverty,  and  despair  gap- 
ing from  every  window  and  doorstep  in 
Atlanta,  some  2t)0  of  the  city's  smug  mid- 
dleclassers  assembled  recently  in  the  First 
Congregational  Church  to  hear  Professor 
Ira  de  A.  Reid  answer  the  question.  "Does 
the  Negro  need  a  new  economic  pro- 
gram ?" 

Thsi  question,  though  only  slightly  less 
absurd  than  the  query  of  a  man  who. 
afflicted  with  hoof-and-mouth  disease, 
asked  if  he  needed  a  doctor,  was  bravely 
attacked  by  Mr.  Reid  with  resulting  cas- 
ualities  on  both  sides.  The  speaker  concen- 
trated a  withering  fire  on  the  enemy's 
flanks,  but  left  his  center  undisturbed  and 
as  formidable  as  ever. 

After  half-an-hour's  preliminary  jjer- 
suasion  had  left  the  audience  aghast  at 
the  startling^revelation  that  the  Negro  ac- 
tually needed  a  new  economic  program, 
the  implications  of  this  drastic  and  revolu- 
tionary scheme  were  disclosed.  Mr.  Reid 
told  Aframericans  to — 

1 — Strive  to  attain  full  citizenship; 
2 — Form  "pressure"  organizations 

(a)  For  working  class  protection; 

(b)  For  the  utilization  of  consum- 
ers' power; 

3 — Re-align  professional  and  business 
groups  with  the  masses. 

•       *       •       «       w 

THE  VALUE  of  any  program,  either  for 
individual  action.  i$  determined  in  large 
measure  by  its  practicability.  Admit  this, 
and  you  have  tossed  all  Mr.  Reid's  pro|»oB- 
als  into  the  garbage  can. 

You  i>eoplc  who  believe  that  it  is  jwasi- 
ole  to  induce  or  com|»el  Aframericans  to 
follow  a  program  such  as  is  advanced  by 
Mr.  Reid  should  bear  in  mind  certain  char- 
acteristics of  the  times:

taining full  citizenship  in  the  United  States

a  mitt  slinger  and  have  been  since  t'.iat  May  night  of  sev- 
eral years  a.50,  whon  Lewis  made  his  finU  California  ap 
jjearance  and  knocked  a  chap  named  tsaminy  Bass  for 
n.w  of  fish  hooks.  Sunday  night  we  had  John  up  at  the 
Lakeside  Roof  a.s  the  honoi-ed  .guest  of  tin-  evening  and 
had  promoter  Forman's  right  hand  man,  Dee  Julio,  get  200 
photos  of  Lewis  made  so  he  could  givc^them  av.ay  free  that 
evening  to  his  ft  lends.  I'll  admit  it  was  a  pubUeity  stur.l 
for  thi  bout  this  week  with  Georgi,  but  it  made  many  new 
friends  for  the  Ukable  John  Henry  and  he  all  but  got 
writer  y  cramp  from  aulogiaiihing  his  •  pictures.  And  we 
killed  two  birds  with  one  effort,  for  the  many  readers  of 
the  Tribune  who  have  many  times  seen  the  name  of  Alan 
"Pinky"  Ward  on  the  s|)ort  sheet,  but  never  in  |jerson,  had 
that  on])ortunity  Sunday,  for  we  hud  Ward  up  to  introduce 
Lewis  and  he  did  a  swell  job  and  enjoyed  b^ing  present.

for  his  brother  Christy,  as  well  as  other  Colored  boxers. 
I'er'oonalix'.  1  feel  that  as  Lightiiravj-weight  champion  of 
the  Paeifir  Coast,  this  young  chap  who  will  be  voting  soon, 
is  not  receiving  the  same  treatment  in  San  Fnmeiseo  rings 
that  he  will  get  at  the  Oakland  Auditorium.  So  there's  th«-

How  does  one  go  about  getting  in  the  Movies?  Well,  to 
start  with  you  have  to  starve.  You  have  to  starve  a  long 
long  time.  For  year*  maybe.  At  the  same  time  you  have  to 
walk  about  from  studio  to  studio.  And  be  refused  by  the 
casting  directors.  Then  you  go  back  to  Iowa.  And  mirrj' 
tha,t  Johnnie  Sojiith  who  runs  the  Garage.  .  .  .  That's  how 
you  get  in  me  movies.

History 

In  the  Making 


Week  of  October  19,  1934 


NO  GREATER  HEROISM  is  known 
tc  history  than  that  of  the  1200  striking 
coal-miners  of  recz,  Hungary,  who  this 
week  chose  death  by  starvation  and  suffo- 
cation rather  than  compromise  their  de- 
mands for  a  hving  wage.  With  bodies 
weakened  by  hunger  and  thirst,  and  by 
titeir  sleej)le6S  vigil  in  the  dust-filled, 
folackcnod  shafts,  and  while  their  women- 
folk begged  soldiers  to  "Let  us  go  down 
into  the  pit  to  die  with  our  men,"  these 
wretched  workers  remained  for  108  houre, 
dying  by  degrees  but  with  spirits  resolute 
and  unflinching.  Alarmed  government  of- 
ficials sent  an  ultimati>m:  "Come  up  with- 
h»  30  minutes.  If  you  refrain  from  lawless- 
ness and  violence  v/e  will  negotiate  with 
you."  Neither  answer  nor  the  govern- 
ment's messengers  returned.  Later  came 
the  miners'  ultimatum:  "We  will  not  leave 
the  shafts  or  aiii,v/er  further  messages 
until  infomied  we  have  been  given  an  8 
per  cent  increase  in  wages.  We  have  de- 
cided to  die  if  it  is  not  done.  It  means  sui- 
cide but  we  would  rather  die  here  of  gas 
mnd  lack  of  food  than  face  a  slow  death 
above,  because  our  wages  are  not  enough 
to  buy  bread."  P"'iually  the  Credit  Anstalt, 
wliich  owns  the  mines  and  is  controlled  by 
the  Fascist  Austrian  government,  agreed 
to  the  following  terms:  (1)  A  bonus  of 
about  .$17<217  now  and  a  similar  one  at 
idiristmus  tune;  (2)  No  prosecution  for 
-  -aa^iotege  provided  no  damage  was  done  to 
•tlie  mines;  (3)  No  cancellation  of  vaca- 
Itions  iiecause  oi  Uit:  bl'-ike;  (4)  A  govem- 
!hl£Dt  commission  to  dispense  justice.  Even 
Itben  the  miners  returned  to  the  surface 
;tt!))|,C|t$ntly,  bcheving  that  they  had  wcak- 
'tiWd.  ...  Neither  prose  nor  rhyme  haa 
|evpr  unfolded  a  more  glorious  story  of 
^htfrnan  valor.  In  comparison  to  this  strug- 
■j;Je-to-the-death  of  workers  for  food,  the 
•Spartan  daring  at  Thermoiwlae,  the  ride 
loi  11^  Six  Hundred  into  the  Valley  of 
IDtotb,  the  Americans'  charge  on  San  Juan 
JHfll-^^very  tale  of  martial  couragc^that 
^egend  or  history  can  tell  shrinks  to  insig- 
Viflemce.  The  story  of  the  Hungarian 
.tntners  is  an  epic.  Yet,  it  was  given  sec- 
.'oiifl-page  rating  by  most  of  the  great 
^ttftWspapers  in  this  country.  The  Lind- 
'bergh  kidnapping  case  got  the  headhnes! 

:;  'Another  gesture  to  delude  the 

xoinmon  peo|i|e  is  about  to  be  made  as 
.'tm  'is  written.  In  London,  the  world's 
gtlfiii  aea  jiowprs  are  gathering  to  decide 
^Wbat  optiroislB  a|td  propagandists  declare 
fOsybe  "the  fate  of  the  epochal  naval 
IBUldraeiice  of  193S."  Ad  if  conversations 
^n  scrape  of  paper  are  binding  ties  on 
ofanbttion  of  nations!  Three  things  are 
MHain:  (1)  Japan  will  neither  honestly 
..  aitfipt  ag^in  the  5-5-3  ration  nor  repudiate 
■^Jtm  "Monroe  Doctrine  of  Asia  ";  (2)  Great 
will  not  ceaae  planning  for  the  se- 
of  the  empire,  which  has  already 
threatened  by  recent  diplomatic 
in  llitfope;  (3)  And  as  for  the  U.

^lARPLY  RECOILING  FROM  left- 
ward extremes  went  both  American  and 
■  ^iiL.sn  la.x)r  last  vvwk.  lOven  then,  the 
British  were  far  ahead  of  our  workers. 
Nearly  2,500,000  English  laborers  post- 
carded  the  Labor  Party  conference  repudi- 
ating Leftist  proposals  for  (1)  cooperation 
with  the  Communists;  (2)  immediate  abo- 
lition of  the  House  of  Lords;  (3)  confisca- 
tion of  industries,  banking  and  estates 
without  compensation;  agreeing,  however, 
on  a  progi-ani  for  ( 1 )  absolute  repudiation 
of  Communism;  (2)  an  eventual  abolition 
of  the  House  of  Lords;  (3)  socialization 
of  all  industries,  beginning  with  the  rail- 
roads, and  with  compensation.  American 
labor  lagged  behind  these  steps.  It  repudi- 
ated both  Communism  and  Fascism  and 
rejected  every  left-wing  proposal  submit- 
ted to  the  Convention,  i-eccnlly  meeting  in 
this  city.  Forward  ste|is  were  (1)  organi- 
sation of  industrial  unions  at  the  discre- 
tion of  the  executive  council  (it  was  er- 
j-onecusly  reported  in  this  column  last 
week  thdt  the  Convention  had  rejected  all 
13  pro])osals  for  industrial  organization) ; 
(2)  increase  of  the  executive  council  mem- 
bership to  allow  for  inflow  of  "new 
blood";  (3)  instruction  of  executive  coun- 
cil to  aid  in  having  national  and  interna- 
tional unions  to  remove  bars  to  colored 
workers;  (4)  five-day,  six-hour  week, 
without  reduction  in  pay;  (5)  unemploy- 
ment insurance;  (6)  higher  wages;  {7) 
action  by  executive  council  to  have  com- 
pany unions  outlawed  by  modification  or 
clarification  of  section  7-a  of  the  NRA. 
.  .  .  Most  encouraging  aspect  of  the  Con- 
vention, from  The  Spokesman's  point  of 
view,  was  the  militancy  of  rank  and  file 
membership  of  the  A.  F.  of  L.,  and  the 
fervor  with  which  a  new  leadership  pro- 
mised to  fight  labor's  battles  to  the  finish. 
Time  will  tell  how  cheap  is  talk;  and  even 
now  "the  Bird  of  Time  is  on  the  Wing." 


THE  SPOKESMAN  SEIECTS: 


Continued   from    Page    1 

were  brought  into  his  court.  He  went  on 
record  as  denouncing  the  police  for  their 
campaign  against  these  poor  workers. 
His  administration  of  justice  is  seldom 
questioned  even  by  offenders.  They  know 
that  they  will  get  a  "fair  break"  in  his 
court,  because  he  seems  to  understand  the 
.social  factors  underl.ying  crime.  His  entire 
attitude  is  sympathetic,  tolerant,  patient. 
.\nd  in  a  system  of  justice  where  the 
common  man  has  so  little  influence,  this 
Httitude  in  a  police  judge  is  all  important. 
The  people  of  San  Francisco  need  Judge 
Lazarus  as  a  police  judge,  but  his  influ- 
ence will  be  far  greater  on  the  Superior 
Court  bench.  For  that  position,  over 
Judge  Steiger,  his  record  is  adequate  rec- 
ommendation. 


SINCIJIIR    VERSUS    MERRIAAl 

GOVERNOR  MERRIAM  will  be  re- 
clcclcd  Governor  of  California  if  the 
voters  in  this  state  act  according  to  cus- 
tom. That  is  to  say,  if  a  majority  of 
Califomians  believe  the  ballyhoo  and  pro- 
paganda now  being  showered  upon  them 
through  every  publicity  channel  money 
and  influence  can  command,  they  will 
vote    for    Governor    Merriam. 

But  if  you  are  one  of  tbosc  jicrsonB 
who  intend  to  lay  a  wager  on  the  outcome 
of  the  election,  you  would  be  wise  to 
reckon  on  factors  not  usually  considered 
by  political  observers.  This  is  an  extra- 
ordinary election;  extraordinary  men  and 
factors  will  decide  the  question  of  defeat 
or  victory  for  either. 

It  is  customary  in  a  "representative 
government",  such  as  ours,  for  elections 
to  be  decided  by  the  money  and  influence 
of  a  candidate.  And  it  has  been  the  rule 
that  that  candidate  who  summons  to  his 
aid  most  money  and  influence  emerges 
the  victor.  In  fact  .so  important  are 
money  and  influence  in  assuring  the 
success  of  a  political  campaign,  thdt  a 
candidate's  fitness  for  office  is  purely 
incidental.  It  is  now  well  established  that 
merit  has  little  or  nothing  to  do  with 
an  individual's  chances  of  victory;  and 
that  he  will  gain  or  lose  votes  in  pro- 
portion to  his  backing  and  his  knowledge 
and  use  of  all  the  subtle,  cheap  tricks 
of  demagoguery. 

But  a  new  factor  enters  into  the 
present  poUtical  campaign.  It  is  the  com- 
mon man's  skepticism.  The  mass  mind 
is  no  longer  what  it  used  to  be.  Ekrs 
that  ordinarily  would  drink  eagerly  of 
the  politician's  hocus-pokus  are  now  deaf. 
Minds  that  customarily  accept  without 
hesitancy  any  suggestion  offered  are 
tightly  closed.  The  trouble  is  that  there 
has  been  too  much  hocus-pokus,  too  many 
suggestions,  The  herd  is  weary  of  talk 
and  golden  'promises,  of  reaction  and  in- 
action. The  herd  demands  a  leader  to  act. 

This  single  factor.  The  Spokesman 
believes,    uf  'not    taken    into    account    by 


the  gentlemen  who  arc  directing;  the  cam  ■ 
jiaign  against  Mr.  Sinclair.  Thcsi  gentle- 
men arc  of  the  old  school.  Thiv  still  be- 
lieve in  the  principles  of  mass  psycho- 
logy. They  think  that  the  majority  of 
Californians  are  still  sheepish,  gullible 
children,  who  will  obediently  walk  to  the 
jioUs  on  November  6  and  dc  as  they  ai« 
told.  And  so  they  employ  every  device  of 
the  orator  and  salesman  in  order  to  in- 
oculate these  children  with  the  fear  of 
Sinclairism. 

This  form  of  campaigning,  in  our 
o|)inion,  is  neither  opjxjrtUne  nor  effec- 
tive. Instead  of  denouncing  Sinclair,  his 
loes  would  do  better,  it  seems  to  us,  by 
offering  to  the  people  a  program  more 
feasible  and  as  novel  as  EPIC.  The  wrong 
.strategy  is  being  used:  every  knock  of 
the  man  Sinclair  is  really  a  boost  of  the 
I  plan  EPIC.  If  nothing  more,  it  serves  to 
remind  the  voters  that  at  least  Sinclair 
is  offering  them  a  leadership  of  action — 
which  is  more  than  either  Merriam  or 
Haight   is   doing. 

Unless  The  Sjwkesman's  vision  is 
strangely  beclouded,  Sinclair's  foes  are 
doing  more  to  elect  him  by  this  cam- 
paign of  mud-slinging  proi)aganda  than 
he  is  doing  by  his  own  efforts.  And  in 
so  doing  they  are  involuntarily  contribut- 
ing to  the  happiness  and  future  of  the 
American  people.  For  if  Sinclair  is  de- 
feated, the  common  fjeople  of  this  country 
may  as  well  begin  preparing  for  a  con- 
tinuation of  the  present  unemployment 
enigma.  The  privileged  few  will  have  won 
again ! 


TRAMIITOLO     VERSUS    KAIIN 

OF  THE  TWO  LEADING  candidates 
lor  election  to  the  United  States  Congress 
from  California's  Fourth  District,  The 
Spokesman  unhesitatingl.v  chooses  Chaun- 
cey  Tramutolo.  Not  that  Mr.  Tramutolo 
is  so  exceptional  a  prospective  Congress- 
man, but  that  Mrs.  Kahn  is  so  lamentably 
reactionary    a    Congrcsswoman ! 

Mr.  Tramutolo  has  opinions  which 
indicate  his  loyolty  to  the  people  of  this 
State.  And  when  we  say  "the  people", 
we  mean  the  great  majority  of  hard-work- 
ing, liberty-loving  Californians.  PYr  ex- 
ample, Mr.  Tramutolo  may  be  counted  on 
to  vote  for  the  30-hour  week,  if  it  ever 
reaches  Congress  in  the  form  of  a  bill;  for 
unemployment  insurance;  for  the  CosLi- 
gan-VVaffii(?i  anti-lynching  bill!  for  admin- 
istrution  measures  generally,  such  as  more 
funds  for  public  works,  for  the  extension 
of  CWA,  for  relief  measures  of  whatever 
magnitude. 

The  Siokesman  doubts  very  much  if 
Mr.  Tramutolo  would  well  wear  the  label 
"Socialist"  or  "Communist."  As  a  matter 
of  fact,  his  leftward  tendencies  are  defin- 
itely curtailed  by  a  professiional  back- 
ground and  business  associations.  He  will 
not  be  one  of  those  to  favor  governmenlal 
owuersiiip  of  banks  and  lailroads,  al- 
though he  lias  not  cominitled  himself  on 
such  a  jiossibility.  But  in  our  opinion,  the 
rise  of  Mr.  'I'lamutolo  to  eminence— his 
petiple,  us  he  put  it,  were  once  as  "^M)or  as 
cliurch-mice"--predisito8i'H  him  favorably 
to  the  doctrine  of  individualism.  By  suiH>r- 


ior  ability  and  a  few  "breaks"  he  has  at- 
tained a  iNJSilion  of  affluence  in  the  com- 
muiiity,  and  it  i.s  our  experience  that  such 
a  man  can  not  be  counted  on  to  renounce 
entirely  the  sjstein  in  which  he  plays  so 
imi>ortant  a  role. 

But,  as  comiiarcd  to  Congresswoman 
Ualin,  Mr.  Tramutolo  is  a  very  deep-dyed, 
iiibid  "Red."  So  far  backwards  does  the 
venerable  lady  lie  in  theory  and  practice 
that  any  poison  this  side  of  the  Third 
Glacial  Period  would  be  a  distinct  im- 
pi<  venient  on  her.  None  of  her  official 
uUciaiice;;  or  acts  is  more  clearly  an  in- 
dication of  this  utter  incapacity  for  under- 
standing modern  society  than  her  message 
of  congratulation  to  Governor  Rolph  after 
iiis  condonation  of  the  San  Jose  lynchings. 
The  good  lady  believed  that  mob  violence 
ol  the  brand  that  i-ndcil  in  Holmes  and 
Tluirinond  being  strung-up  to  trees  in  San 
Jose  was  tli»'  right  kind  of  justice! 

Even  if  Mrs.  Kahn  had  never  coni- 
niJlted  this  flagrant  (lolitical  indiscretion 
---all  the  more  flagrant  because  of  her 
Jewish  blood — her  official  acts  as  Con- 
giO.isnoman  from  California  w(}uld  damn 
her  eternally  as  a  fit  representative  of  the 
iK'uple.  P^or  some  inexphcable  reason,  she 
voted  against  the  TVA  project.  This  may 
not  be  ;is  inex[)licable  as  it  seems,  consid- 
ering her  connections  at  home!  Moreover, 
.she  voted  against  the  bill  authorizing  re- 
Ik'f  funds  lor  California.  And  what  would 
llinsc  gentlemen  in  the  soup-lines  on  P'ol- 
soin  SLieet  have  done  if  the  government 
had  net  spent  money  for  relief?  As  a  mat- 
ter of  fact,  Mrs.  Kahn  impeded  the  Ad- 
ministration's progress  all  along  the  way. 
Certainly,  Mi.  Roosevelt  is  not  doing  all 
lh:it  he  could  do.  But  if  the  representative

jtatli  so  far,  what  on  earth  may  be  ex- 
pected of  her  when  he  turns  further  left-

AN  INTIMATE  GLIMPSE  OF  LAN6ST0N  HUGHES 


P 


ersonalities 

By  Wesley  Johnson 


I  Severol  days  ago  it  was  the 
writer's  good  fortune  to  interview 
one  of  America's  foremost  writers, 
Langston  Hughes.  Contrary  to  the 

^  writer's  previous  conception, 
Mr.  Hughes,  a  man  of  sterling 
character    and    dynamic     personal- 

j  Ity,  was  not  only  easy  to  meet, 
but  also  congenial  and  pleasant. 
Nc^twithstanding     his     many     suc- 

I  cosaes.  this  Internationally  known 
person    Is  void   of    haughtiness  and 

j  Is   a    patient    listener   even    though 
he     may    he    nn 
authority  on  the 

Isubject    dis- 
cusaed. 

M  r  .  Hughes 
W8W  born  In 
Joplin.  Mo.,  in 
1905    .Shortly  af- 

1  ter     his     birth. 

'his      parents 
moved  to  Cleve- 

'  land.   Ohio. 

It  was  in 
Cleveland  while 
n  1 1  e  nding  the 
Central  High 
School   that  Mr 

'  Hughes  became  seriously  interest- 
ed In  writing.  His  enthusiasm  and 
ability  as  a  writer  finally  netted 
him  the  honor  of  becoming  the 
editor     of     the     school     paper     and 

I  year  book  The  educational  insti- 
tutions    which     represent     Mr. 

.  Hughes'  alma  mater  arc  the  Co- 
lumbia t'niversity  and  the  Lincoln 
Kniveralty.  With  pride  Mr  Hughes 
boasts  of  being  a  member  of  the 
Omega  Psi  Phi  fraternity.

iluusc  of  CnnKt'CiUi  nufl  one  of  the 
fii-st  Negi"o  lijwycrs  in  thl^  coun- 
try, i.i  Mr.  Hughes'  grand  uncle. 
Mr.  L.angslon,  who  founded  the 
Howard  University  t^iw  School, 
was  Minister  to  Haiti.  His  book, 
"Fiom  the  Cabin  to  the  White 
House, "  was  widely  acclaimed  for 
its  merits

According  to  Mr.  Hughes,  it 
takes  him  an  average  of  three 
days  to  writo  a  story,  first  draft. 
One  day  or  more  is  needed  to  re- 
vise and  edit  second  and  third 
draft.  Mr.  Hughes  claims  that  he 
cannot  <lo  more  than  four  pages 
of    good    writing    a    day. 

In  giving  an  account  of  the 
sources  of  his  ideas  for  stories, 
Mr  Hughes,  who  has  ha<l  a  varied 
'•nd  colorful  life,  said  that  he 
u^ies  nrtual  happenings.  Of  course 
they  are  changed  or  modified  to 
.•nilt  the  story  that  he  would  like 
to    present. 

When  asked  whether  Negroes 
should  re.stilcl  their  writing  to 
■.'cfrroeM.  Mr  Hughes  .sa^d.  "My 
position  in  regard  to  writing  has 
been  that  Negroes  should  write 
about  anything.  If  yiiu  write  well 
enough,  your  work  will  b<'  ac- 
cepted" 

During  his  career.  Mr.  Huphes 
has  written  21  -ihort  stories,  three 
books  of  poems,  and  one  novM. 
"Not  without  Laughter,"  which  is 
one  of  his  most  popular  works 
RIISHIAN    OB.SKKVATION8 

Russia  offers  far  greater  oppor- 
tunity to  Negroes  than  any  other 
country  In  Europe,  according  In 
Mr.  Hughes.  Raallsing  the  sad 
plight  of  the  Negro  and  having  » 
kind  feeling  toward  minority 
groups,  the  Rusalane  heartily  wel- 
t>pm»  Nef roe*  and  even  go  out  of 


Ihrir  way  lo  iimkr   Ibing.s  pleasant 
for    ihem. 

Mr  Hughi:,  further  .sUiled  that 
there  i.i  no  racial  di.siriniiuulion. 
Negroc.K  are  given  ec|uul  oppor- 
tunity to  advuucc  in  all  fields.  As 
far  as  marriage  is  concerned, 
there  are  no  laws  prohibiting  Ne- 
proe-s  and  whites  from  marrying. 
I  he  affairs  of  the  henrt  are  pure- 
ly  personal. 

,  It  is  Mr  Hughes'  contention 
,  that  the  basic  cause  underlying 
!  the  race  problem:;  in  this  country 
J  i''  purely  economic.  When  we 
j  have  a  social  order  which  will 
;  Improve  the  economic  conditions, 
.•ircording  to  Mr  Hughes,  creating 
I  equality  among  the  wprkcrs  good 
will  and  mutual  iinderstantling 
I  will  prevail  between  the  various 
I  races  and  nationalities  which 
I  make  up  this  great  country.

Beceutly  Mr  Hughes  was  listed 
a:i  one  of  2.1  knding  American 
writers  who  have  n  social  influ- 
ence. At  present  the  poet  lives  in 
Cnrmel  while  he  is  working  on  a 
series  of  articles  on  Russia  Al- 
though his  latest  articles  are  not 
written  aboia  Negroes,  they  have 
been  purchased  (>y  u,ge  maga

When  I  wu.H  very  young  — 
or  perhaps  Ishould  say;  once  up- 
on a  time.  I  wjis  n  fraction  of 
one  of  those  organizations  con- 
sibt  of  e  I  e  v  c  n  men  whose 
function  is  to  huildle  together 
very  earnestly,  slap  one  another 
on  the  backs,  and  then  line  up 
about  a  football  like  coopera- 
tive hens  trying  lo  hutch  out  a 
leather  egg.  After  that  someone 
would  say.  "Ii|up'".  and  everynnc 
would  fall  dowi).  Then  the  grand- 
stands woulcl  cheer  like  mad. 
There    wasn't    muc^    sense    to    it. 

We  used  to  practice  every  af- 
ternoon In  Golden  Oatc  Park. 
And.  since  I  was  a  disciple  of 
that  sort  of  thing  for  the  entire 
seven  years  I  spent  in  High 
school,  it  followed  that  I  became 
somewhat  an  authority  on  the 
park  life  and  activities  within 
llic    vi(  inily    of    the    practice    field 

One  thing  which  never  failed 
tu  iuipiefs  me  as  somewhat  un- 
a.^ual  v/as  the  fact  that  during 
bn.sk  showers  there  would  be 
pari;  employees  busilly  engaged 
in  watering  the  Rras  and  shrubs 
At  the  lime  it  seemed  silly. 
:  But  luter  I  learned  that  they  had 
Kood  reason  for  their  actions. 
The  men  were  at  that  time  paid 
ill  watering  the  gra.ss  and.  shrubs. 
I>y  the  day.  When  Ihey  didn't 
v.'iirl<  they  weren't  paid  So  despite 
After  I  learned  that  it  still 
seemed  silly. 

Thi^  incident  was  vividly  re- 
c  Jlcd  la:it  week  when  I  had 
o-casion  to  enter  a  certain  store 
wliile  about  the  business  of  the 
fourth  estate,  an  institution  in 
V  hi<  h  several  people  gather 
around  in  a  huddle  and  attempt 
tn  hatch  a  plot  for  tile  good  of 
the  coainuinity  and  the  damn- 
ation of  thoir  enemies  ...  It 
ends  up  in  everyone  falling  down 
and  the  gniiidNtands  cheer 
like  mad  There  isn't  much  sense 
to     it. 

It  wii...  with  .sonic  surprise  that 
I  learned,  once  being  inside  the 
sore,  that  there  was  present 
therein  a  Merriam  supporter: 
v.'hich  is  a  .■<tate  of  mind  closely 
associated  with  myopia  and  com- 
l-lelc   loss  of   memory 

In  the  course  of  the  ensuing  ar- 
;(ument.  I  learned  that  this  par- 
tit'ular  Merriam  supporter  was  a 
Ml  main  supporter  because  he 
hoped  to  "get  paid  for  it."'  And  so 
I  reiimmbcred  the  man  uselessly 
v.'atcrir.K  tne  gra.ss  knowing  full 
well  th.it  what  he  was  doing 
would  piuJiirc  iiuthinK  more  than 
already  existed;  would  make  no 
iniprnvemcnts:  add  no  beauty  .  . 
ill  fact  had  no  reason  for  being 
done  at  all  except  thit  ihe  person 
doiiii;  it  would  be  paid  for  bis 
labor. 

It'o  nii'u  having  memories  of 
childhood    brouifht    back    that    way 

.Xfli'r  the  matter  of  money  had 
been  dispo.scd  of.  he  went  on  lo 
secondary  considerations  The 
inalter  of  the  relative  values  of 
the  two  men,  and  reasons  for  and 
.igaiiisi  ihi'ir  election  And  here  I 
niiiiccd  a  peculiar  thing,  and  one 
that  is  so  largely  h  part  of  the 
c.'tinpalgii  that  I  am  beginning  tn 
fcrl  lh:ii  it  is  rnotcil  In  an  imiwr- 
tiiiil  trill h.  No  Merriam  supporter, 
it  ;.« em'i,  can  «iffer  a  logical  rea- 
■nii    for   one   Ici   vote   for   hi.s  candi- 

•  liil<'.  The  entire  Meriinm  ram- 
jmiKn  consists  of  attacks  on  Sin- 
chiir.  This  is  as  if  a  salesman 
were  to  attempt  lo  ."ell  one  a 
Ford  car  by  spending  the  entire 
time  of  Ihr  irustnnier  telling  him 
« hat  a  rotten  Job  Chevrolet  puts 
nut.  Hut  then  I  don't  blame  the 
MrrriaiM     men     for    attacking     Sin- 

•  lair  so  wildly.  They  have  to  say 
Homcthing  And  it  Is  quite  certain 
that  no  one.  not  even  one  with 
Ihe  imagination  of  an  Kdgar  Itlce 
Burroughs,  could  find  anything 
favorable  to  say  about  Merriam. 
The  less  said  about  that  man,  the 
better. 

However,  in  the  matter  of  Sin- 
clair, there  is  very  much  to  say 
Indeed.  And  the  Merriam  support- 
er proceeded  lo  say  it    .  . 

This  dissertation  followed  so 
closely  the  pattern  of  a  campaign 
of  two  years  ago,  tha  I  uncon- 
sciously took  the  role  of  promp- 
ter, and  was  disappointed  when 
iiij  speaker  faiieu  lo  include  all 
his  points  in  the  catalogue  of  dis- 
aster, he  gave  me.  calling  It 
"What  would  happen  if  Sinclair 
were   elected." 

I  wonder  if  the  Ilepublicans 
have  not  hired  the  same  cam- 
paign director  in  this  present  bat- 
tle that  they  had  in  that  other 
one?  The  patterns  are  so  nearly 
identical  that  they  might  be  the 
same  I  would  not  be  astonished 
to  learn  that  the  various  Repub- 
lican headquarters  had.  as  their 
plan  nf  campaign,  dusty  copies  of 
the  campaign  plans  of  that  other 
fight,  with  Roosevells  name 
struck  out  and  Sinclair's  substi- 
tuted. For.  "What  will  happen  if 
Sinclair  is  elected,"  and,  "What 
will  happen  if  Roosevelt  Is  elect- 
ed" arc  so  nearly  the  same  that  It 
would  appear  that  the  former  Is 
either  plagiarism,  or  a  most  re- 
inai'kahle  accident  of  Identity 

The  "If  Roosevelt"  volume  out 
n.'  the  Republican  Press,  con- 
'iinrd  if  I  remember  rightly, 
some  very  interesting  suppositions 
The  plans  he  advocated  were,  "un- 
sound, unsafe,  and  wholly  Inap- 
plicable." If  Roosevelt  were  elect- 
ed, "graaa  would  be  growing  along 
Wall  Street  wttbin  ils  montbt."  If 


Roosevelt       were      tlevtod,       "The 

'banks  would  be  closed  down  In  3ii 
days."  I  For  once  they  were  lru<' 
prophets!)  His  ideas  on  the  tariff, 
on   banking,  on  the  problem  nf  the 

'  farmer   and   the    worker   generally, 
were     dangerously     radical     eKprrI 
meals.   And  as   for  the  abolition  of 
prohibition,     that     was     Imponslhk' 
It   simply  couldn't   be   dune        .   . 

Now  my  entrance  Into  the  drug- 
store was  rather  a  special  en- 
trance .  for  it  WAS  not  myself 
alone  wljo  entered  the  store  (hat 
day,  but  myself  and  Brother  Leo 
of  St.  Marys  College  Brother  l^i> 
was  not,  of  course,  present  In  Ihr 
flesh  However,  he  was  so  strnnB 
in  my  mind  at  the  time,  he  iiii;:hl 
as    well    have    been    present. 

The  night  tK-forc,  I  had  attend- 
ed a  lecture  given  by  this  muii 
and,  fur  such  is  his  persouQlity.  I 
wa..<  still  marching  with  that 
splendid  host;  the  great  nicn  of 
history,  for  it  had  been  conccrn- 
ine  them  that   he  had  spoken 

Brother  Leo,  I  might  add.  is  ■< 
man  of  high  repute  among  those 
esoteric  onca  to  whom  Kngllsh 
Literature  is  bread  and  milk  and 
sweet  flowing  lioney  tor  the  hun- 
ger in  their  souls,  for  he  ranks 
as  the  highest  authfuity  on  Kng- 
lish  Litarature  in  this  part  nf  the 
world. 

'  Besides  this,  the  ni.in  is  sninr- 
thing  of  the  Wandering  Jew,  for 
he     has,     through     the     magic     of 

I  books,  lived  intimately  in  all  the 
ases.  Thus  he  can  talk  ol  Aris- 
totle, Plato,  Sophocles,  and  the 
I;  new  them  personally.  And  he 
can  toll  you  of  St  Francis.  St 
Therencc.  and  the  doings  of  l.Vh 
century  popes  in  the  same  way 
tn  fact  he  knows  so  much  that  he 
is  humble  .  .  which  is  a  sort  of 
a   badge  for  that  sort  of  Ihing 

He  was  talking  on  the  eternity 
of  truth  And  he  gave  us  the  an- 
cient reminder:  that  in  many 
many  things  of  the  mind  man  has 
failed  tn  take  one  step  forward 
since  their  discovery  or  Invention 
Aristotle  invented  l>oglc  .  ami 
no  one  could  better  his  method 
So|ihoc.lei  wrote  the  most  mecban- 
ically  perfect  play  that  has  ever 
been  known  And  even  in  the  pat- 
tern of  the  balanced  life  itself 
few  ages  equalled  Greece  in  grasp 
and   application. 

.  If  you  know  Brother  Leo  at  all. 
you  will  not  be  surprised  to  learn 
that  he  feels  that  with  Shake- 
speare and  Sheridan.  English 
drama  reached  a  peak  it  ha< 
never    .'ln<'e    appioaclied 

With  all  of  life  there  ahe  ct(  r- 
nal  truth*  --  eternal  values  And. 
from  a  Itmited  knowledge  of  the 
cla.sslcs,  I  can  recall  uo  single 
example    of    n    man    who    made    n 

,  permanent  gain  In  life  In  which 
hi.-)  actions  were  predlcattd  on  the 
fact  tbvt  he  was  "getting  piad  for 
it" 

I  have  had  allthis  summed  up 
for  me  by  a  lawyer.  He  said,  "Mo- 
ney Isn't  everything."  ...  He 
was  a  lawyer    And  he  said  that    .  .

Puppetry    Class   Opens 

Although  many  were  disappoint- 
ed over  the  fact  that  the  Instruc- 
tor scheduled  for  puppetry  was 
unable  to  take  the  class,  some  of 
the  girls  decided  to  organize  a 
self-instructive  class,  therefore  on 
Wednesday  evening,  October  17 
member.s  put  their  heads  together 
and  began  experimenting.  With 
much  enthusiasm  and  mirth,  the 
girls  proceeded  to  try  their  hand 
In  making  amateur  puppets.  Al- 
ready much  talent  is  being  shown. 
After  the  work  is  completed  this 
group  expects  to  write  and  pro- 
duce a  puppet  play  at  which  time 
friends  interested  will  have  an 
opportunity  to  witness  the  unus- 
ual ability  of  this  class.

VOTE  FOR  THESE  MEN  AND  MEASURES! 


FOR  THOSE  who  witJi  to  be  guided  by  The  Spokes- 
man's judgment  in  Tuesday's  im[)ortant  election,  the  fol- 
lowing rfcommendations  are  submitted.  In  making  these 
rocommendations  The  Spoluisnian  wishes  it  to  be  clearly 

iinderst(X)d  that  it  is  not  attemptitig  to  pick  the  winning 
horses  in  this  race.  iVVth  us,  an  ili  ction  is  not  a  betting 
affair.  \Vc  leave  the  task  of  choosing  winners  to  the  poli- 
ticians and  professional  v/eatlietvaiies.  The  Spokesman 
selects  these  men  and  measures  because  they  represent 
jirinciples  in  which  we  hx'iiovo.  If  they  win,  wU  and  good.

A  CHALLENGE  TO  ACTION! 

A  CALL  TO  ARMS!! 

IN  DEFENSE  OF 

California! 


Sinclaiiism  —  the  program  of  Upton 
Sinclair  and  his  radical  associates  —  is 
Communism,  cleveriy  disguised,  but  delit>- 
erately  designed  to  Russianize  California 
state  government 

It  is  rooted  in  class  hatred,  fostered 
and  fomented  by  radicals  who  boast  of 
their  hatred  of  American  ideals  and  Amer- 
ican principles  of  government 

IF  IT  IS  SUCCESSFUL,  IT  WILL 
DESTROY  CAUFORNIAS  BUSINESS 
STRUCTURE.  BANKRUPT  OUR  FAMI- 
LIES, OVERTHROW  OUR  ORGANIZED 
LABOR,  CONFISCATE  OUR  HOMES, 
WRECK  OUR  INDUSTRIES  AND  ROB 
OUR  EMPLOYED  WORKERS  OF  THEIR 
EMPLOYMENT. 

It  is  a  de(init4S  unmistakable^  attempt 
to  establiHb  a  Soviet  Sl*te  in  California — 
to  l»e  Iiea4led  by  a  GodlewK  (M>vemor.  who 
prates  of  Free  Love,  sneers  at  marriage, 
NlandefH  »)ur  rhurche»i  and  loolw  forward 
to  the  day  when  (quoting  Upton  Sinclair'H 
own  words)  "we  may  see  In  America  that 
wonderful  sight  which  we  saw  in  RustOa, 
when  Christian  monks  awiMnbied  and 
burned  tbdir  holy  boolu>" — the  day  of  Bev- 
olution. 

Your  personal  security  is  at  issue — the 
welfare  of  your  home  and  family;  yotir 
American  citizenship,  your  rights  of  self- 
ruJe  and  freedom  of  worship — your  job 
and  >'our  independence. 


At  Tue8<iay's  Election  .  .  .  Stay  Amerieaa!

History 

In  the  Making 


Week  of  November  2,  1934 


OPIUM 

FOB    THE 

PEOPLJE 


LENIN     OFTEN    SAID. 
"Religion  is  opium  for  the 
people."  But  religious  con- 
vocations   in    many    lands 
recently  uttered  many  encouraging  words. 
In    Buenos    Aires    the    Roman     Catholic 
Church    celebrated    its    32nd    Eucharistic 
Congress.   At  the  close  of  the   mass  on 
the  last  day  of  the  Congress,  one  million 
people   heard   Pope    Pius   XI    say:    "Only 
where  tlie  peace  of  Christ  in  the  kingdom 
of  Christ  rules  are  there  offers  of  promis- 
es. Only  so,  in  fact,  will  this  poor  world, 
which  we  see  afflicted  with  fraternal  and 
regal  bloodshed,  be  able  to  find  true  and 
st&ble  peace,  free  from  so  many  evils."  .  . 
In  the    United   States,    the   Slst    triennial 
General     Convention     of     the    Protestant 
Elpiscopal   Church   saw  44   bishops,   as   a- 
gainst  38.  voting  approval  of  the  dissemi- 
nation  of   birth   control   information.   The 
sesqui-centennial  celebration  of  the  found- 
ing of  Methodism  heard  the  assembly  a- 
gree  to  imite  in  one  body  more  than  ten 
million  communicants.   (In  September,  the 
Lutheran  bishops  also  agreed  to  unite  in 
one  church   4,381.094    members).   ...   In 
Germany,    in    defiance    of    the    autocratic 
methods  of  Realm  Bishop  Ludwig  Mueller, 
who  caused  to  be  arrested  rebellious.  anti- 
Nazi    Bishop    Hans    Meisser,    Protestant 
throngs    picketed   Hitler's    house,    spat   at 
the  swastikas  on  either  side  of  the  door, 
and    next    day    published    this   statement: 
'In  a  Church  which  calls  itstif  a  church 
of  the  gospel,  the  gospel  is  cast  out  and 
despotism  and  lying  have  gained  control. 
Realm  Bishop  Ludwig  Mueller  and  August 
Jaeger    are    responsible    for    this    ravish- 
ment. Satan  does  his  work  through  them. 
Therefore  we  cry  to  God  to  make  us  free." 
HISTORY-MAKING    SIGNIFICANCE    of 
the    Catholic    Eucharistic    Congress,    the 
E^piscopal    triennial    Convention,    and    the 
Methodist   sesqui-centennial   celebration   is 
exactly  zero.  The  emptiness  of  Pope  Pius's 
hig:h-w)iinding   words   is   reflected    in   the 
Catholic  opposition  to  the  Socialist  educa- 
tion of  Mexico's  youth.   In   that   poverty- 
ridden  country,  where  the  present  revolu- 
tionary   government    is    attempting    to    e- 
mancipate    the    lower    classes    from    capi- 
talism, most  opposition  to  the  government 
ifl  fomented  by  the  Catholic  Church.  Last 
week,    eight    civilians    and    eight    soldiers 
were  shot   to  death   by   Catholic   malcon- 
tenta.  ...  In  the  United  States,  the  Epis- 
copalians  added    tardy   approval   to   birth 
control,  an  idea  both  science  and  common 
■ense    offered    civiUzation    centuries    ago. 
As  for  the  Methodist  and  Lutheran  reso- 
lutions for  unity.  The  Spokesman  fails  to 
■ee  any   promise  to  humanity;   there  is. 
however,   an   advantage   in   this   proposal 
for  those  who  turn  rehgion  to  profit.   .  . 
But  in  Germany  a  different  tale  may  be 
told.    In    the    tiny    Lutheran    rebellion    of 
Wurttemburg  may  be  the  germ  to  infect 
•U  Nazidom.  Already  Jaeger  has  resigned. 
•ad  Ifuelier  been  rebuffed  by  Hitler.  Or- 
tkbdosy  dies  bard  in  any  land,  but  where 
no  substitute  is  offered  for  it.  it  dies  with 
a^flsTM  Mtnggle.  To  cure  a  drug  addict, 
ibs  liliyilcian  .must   rebuild    his    nervous 
by  inducing  or  compelling  him  to 
oonstnustive    habits    of    mind    and 
not  by   giving   him    another   drug.

SOARING 

INTO     TIIE 

CliOUUS 


UP  TEN  MILES  into  the 
clouds  last  week  went  Pro- 
fessor   Jean    Piccard    and 
his    bra\'e    wife    in     their 
specially  constructed  balloon  to  study  the 
cosmic  rays.  Rapidly  the  balloon  descend- 
ed, landed  in  a  tree;  but  not  before  preci- 
ous instruments  had  been  released  safely 
to  earth.   The   Piccards.    unhurt,    declared 
the  flight  a  success.  History-making  sig- 
nificance:   the    Piccard    instruments    may 
reveal    important    information    concerning 
radiation  and  the  nature  of  matter;   may 
change  physics,  aid  mechanics  and  medi- 
cine.   ...    The    11.000-mile,    $50,000-air- 
derby    from    England    to    Australia,    sug- 
gested    by     Sir    MacPherson     Robertson, 
AustraUan  industrialist,  and  won  by  two 
Englishmen    in    71    hours   is   another   tri- 
uinph  for  aviation,  demonstrates  the  feas- 
ibility of  trans-oceanic  crossings,  will  has- 
ten  the    completion    of   a    world-spanning 
aviation  system. 


THE  U.S. 
WAR  ON 
CRIME 


HARD    ON   THE   HEELS 
of  U.  S.  Attorney  General 
Cummings'     announcement 
of    a    national    conference 
on  crime,  to  meet  in  Washington  Decem- 
ber   10.    Federal    agents    shot    to    death 
Charles  (Pretty  Boy)   Floyd,  elusive  U.  S. 
public  enemy  No.  1  and  asserted  murderer 
of  12  men.  Next  man  on  the  Federal  list 
is    George    (Baby    Face)    Nelson,    wanted 
for  killing  a  special  agent  in  a  Wisconsin 
wood  last  April  when  the  Dillinger  gang 
shot  their  way  out  of  a  federal  trap.  Ap- 
parently   the    era    of    the    boss-gangster- 
killer  is  passing  away.  To  hasten  its  de- 
parture, the  national  conference  on  crime 
will   consider    (1)    Causes  and  Prevention 
of    Crime;     (2)    Investigation,    Detection, 
and    Apprehension;    (3)    Criminal    Courts 
and    Prosecution;    (4)    Detention,    Parole, 
Probation,  and  Pardon.  ...  The  announce- 
ment of  the  meeting  elucidates  thusly  on 
No.   1,   Causes  and  Prevention   of  Crime: 
"Attention  here  will  be  paid  to  underlying 
causes  of  crime,  and  possibilities  of  pre- 
venting it  through  educational,   civic,   re- 
ligious,  and   welfare   work."   Not   a   word 
mentioned  about  "economic  work."  Killing 
a  Dillinger  or  Floyd  will  not  prevent  other 
DilUngers  or  Floyds  from  being   bom  in 
slums,  growing  up  without  adequate  food, 
clothing,  and  shelter,  being  shunted  about 
by  brutal  "guardians"  of  the  law.  It  will 
not    prevent    these    impressionable    young 
minds    from    perceiving    how    millions    go 
starving  while  a  few  have  more  than  plen- 
ty; from  being  innoculated  with  the  Amer- 
ican virus  of  "Profits  the  end,  whatever 
the  means." 


satisfactory  agreement,  that  Jajian  is  will- 
ing   to    accept    any    mutually    acceptable 
compromise.  Almost  simultaneously  Wash- 
ington and  London  protested  the  govern- 
mental control  of  petroleum  Japan  plans 
to  establish  in  the  empire  and  Manchukuo. 
I'he  Washington  protests  alleged  a  viola- 
tion of  the  Nine-Power  Pact,  hinted  at  the 
monopoly  that   would   be  enjojcd  by  the 
Manchuria  Oil  Company,  owned  by  Japan- 
ese interests,  to  the  detriment  of  Standard 
Oil    and    the    Texas    Company.    Japanese 
newspapers   were   silent,   Japanese  sUtes- 
men  non-commital.  Said  Tokio's  Ambassa- 
dor to  Washington,  Hiroshi  Saito:  "Japan 
has  no  oil.  We  must  provide  for  our  na- 
tional   defense."    To    all    of    which    The 
Spokesman    suggests    that    the    Common 
People    of   Japan,    Great    Britain,    or    the 
United    States   are    absolutely    indifferent. 
Mr.  Average  Citizen  of  every  nation  is  not 
concerned  with  warships,  aircraft  carriers, 
and  submarines.    He  doesn't  give  a   hoot 
for  the  Nine-Power  Pact.  He  has  no  inter- 
est in  oil,  except  for  its  heat  and  motor- 
driving  power.  His  primary  interests  are 
much  simpler:   food,  clothing,  shelter,   re- 
lief from  the  fear  of  unemployment,   do- 
mestic  happiness,    and   a   little   leisure    in 
which  to  do  as  he  pleases.  And  if  he  has 
the  least  curiosity,  he  doubtless  wonders 
why   in   the  name  of  God   he  has  to   be 
drafted,    drUled,    and    dragged    across    an 
ocean  to  fight  for  somebody  who  is  inter- 
ested in   armaments  and  oil!   But  this  is 
exactly    what    appears    likely    to    happen; 
for  Japan's  Monroe  Doctrine  is  not  a  mat- 
ter of  words.  It  is  much  more  formidable. 
It  consists  of  the  actual  preparation  for 
a    mammoth    conflict,    a    preparation    of 
which    the    Occident    is    fully    aware    and 
determined  to  resist.  For  there  are  a  few 
people  in   the  Occident  sufficiently  inter- 
ested in  oil  and  armaments  to  cause  the 
uninterested    multitudes    to    become,    mo- 
mentarily,    "patriotic     defenders     of    our 
flag  and  country"!

AFTER 

ELECTIONS, 

WHAT? 


WHAT  DO  THE  American 
People   think   of   the   New 
Deal?  What  has  become  of 
the     Third     Party     Move- 
ment? How  far  Leftward  must  Roosevelt 
go    in   the   next   two   years?   Answers   to 
these  questions  will   be   suggested  during 
the  next  several  days  as  1,420~  candidates 
for   3  Governorships.   34   Senate   and   432 
House  seats  face  the  acid  test  of  popular- 
ity.  In  addition.   742  candidates  seek   274 
principal    State    offices,    excluding    those 
seeking  seats  in  Legislatures  and  numer- 
ous lesser  posts.  Democrats  feel  certain  of 
180  House  seats;  where  their  nominees  are 
likely  to  face  strong  opposition  they  be- 
lieve Roosevelt's  popularity  will  tide  over 
the  batUe.  The  Nation's  political  barome- 
ters  he,   however,    in   the    fate   of   Upton 
Sinclair  in  California,   of   the   LaFollettes 
in  Wisconsin,  and  in  the  clashes  in  Con- 
gress immediately   following   the   election. 
E^specially  is  the  arena  of  Congress  to  be 
a  testing-field.  The  last  session  witnessed 
an     increasing     rapprochement     between 
Conservative   Democrats    and   Old   Guard 
Republicans  on  the  one  hand,  and  between 
Liberal    Democrats    and    Progressive    Re- 
publicans on  the  other.   The  Presidential 
election  of  1940 — if  we   are  still  electing 
presidents  then — will   probably  be  a   con- 
test   between    conservatives    of    whatever 
party-label  and  the  nation's  liberal,  pro- 
gressive elements. 


THE  POWER  OF  ELO- 
quence  almost  made  his- 
tory for  Negro  workers 
during  the  recent  A.  F.  of 
L.  Convention  here.  Yet,  so  modest  is  the 
man  who  accomplished  this  remarkable 
feat  that  only  a  few  Aframericans  in  the 
entire  nation  know  anything  about  it.  But 
this  week  an  article  in  The  Nation  tells 
of  the  man  and  the  incident:  "As  usual 
the  convention  machinery  was  well  oiled 
and  only  once  did  a  recommendation  of

cans and  Africans  little  known  in  this  country.  These  she  ranges  side

critics:  Theodore  Dreiser,  W.  E  B  DuBois.  Mike  Gold,  Langston

"It  was  necessary  to  make  this  book."  Miss  Cunard  writes  in  a

great  game,  to  which  she  gave  Joyously  of  time,  energy  and  money

ASIA'S 

MONROE 

DOCTRINE 


JAPAN'S    ANNOUNCED 
MENT  that  she  is  growing 
more  resentful  of  Europe- 
an and   American   imperi- 
alism in  the  Orient  appeared  beneath  the 
surface   of   two   recent   news-worthy   inci- 
dents. In  London,  her  Rear  Admiral  and 
Special    Envoy    laoroki    Yamamoto    upset 
the    armament    conversations    by    voicing 
three  proposals:   (1)  Scrapping  of  the  ra- 
tio   system    to    give    Japan    equality;    (2) 
Scrapping    of    such    "primarily    offensive 
weapons"  as  aircraft  carriers;    (3)   Okeh- 
ing  of  such  "primarily  defensive  weapons' 
as    submarines.     Obviously.     Europe's    or 
AmericJi's  first   method  of  attack  on  the 
Japanese  is  by  aircraft;  and  Japan's  best 
weapon  against  the  aircraft  carrier  is  the 
submarine.   Yet.   in   reply  to  charges  that 
he  was  attempting   to  wreck   the  confer- 
ence   by    making    these    demands.    Envoy 
Yomomoto  said  he  would  remain  in  Lon- 
don a  year  if  necessary,  in  order  to  get  a 


REMEMBERING  THE  FATE  of 
America's  first  citizens,  people  in  this 
country  may  not  be  surprised  at  anything 
done  by  colonial  governments  in  Africa. 
Yet.  it  struck  us  as  somewhat  unreal — 
almost  as  farcical  as  England  and  the 
United  States  teUng  Japan  how  many 
batticshiijs  she  may  build— that  the  Dur- 
ban. South  Africa,  Chamber  of  Commerce 
should  submit  proposals  to  the  Wage  and 
Industrial  Commission  providing  for 
wage  differentials  for  native  and  Euro- 
pean workers. 

According  to  these  proposals,  there 
will  be  one  wage  scale  for  native  workers 
—  "a  fair,  average  wage  for  unskilled  la- 
bor to  hv  a[>plied  on  as  wide  a  scale  as 
I)08sible"  —and  another  for  whites,  based 
on  the  "white  standard  of  living".  This 
system,  it  is  alleged,  will,  "result  in  the 
growth  of  a  market  for  South  African 
products",  will  "provide  more  work  for 
Europeans",  and  will  "even  gfive  those 
(Europeans)  who  cannot  be  absorbed  in 
skilled  work  a  better  chance  of  making 
a  living". 

This  charitable  program  of  "doing- 
our-duty-by-the-natives"  is  further  modi- 
fied by  a  provision  regulating  increases 
in  pay.  These  will  be  effected,  so  we  are 
informed,  only  "after  consultation  with 
a  representative  of  business  interests". 
Jesse  Jamen  needed  only  the  diction!

THIS  RAPE  OF  AFRICA  has  an  exact 
parallel  in  the  United  States.  Last  week 
the  Southland  Manufacturing  Company, 
of  Montgomery,  Alabama,  submitted  to 
the  NRA  Appeals  Board  arguments  favor- 
ing differential  wage  scales  for  white  and 
Negro  workers  in  its  employ.  Company 
spokesmen  declared  that  if  the  company 
abided  by  the  NRA  code  provisions,  call- 
ing for  equal  wages  for  white  and  Negro 
workers,  it  would  be  driven  to  suicide; 
that  one  factory  in  Montgomery  had  al- 
ready shut  down,  throwing  hundreds  of 
workers  out  of  employment. 

Coming  from  officials  of  the  South- 
land Manufacturing  Company,  such  argu- 
ments are  not  surprising.  They  reflect 
the  well-konwn  attitude  toward  Aframeri- 
cans held  by  American  business  interosU

secretary  respectively  of  Tuskegcc  Insti- 
tute, long-heralded  pioneer  in  Aframerican 
education ! 

To  the  Aframerican  people,  this  act  of 
treachery  by  two  respected  leaders  ought 
to  be  a  revelation.  It  is  far  more  signifi- 
cant than  a  mere  indication  of  the  mo- 
tives and  characters  of  two  individuals.  It 
shows  how  deeply  enmeshed  in  the  toils  of 
this  nation's  rulers  is  the  present  Negro 
leadfi-ship.

their  act,  or  that  they  were  acting  in  the

the    gentlemen    plodding    peons    on    some

would  be  expected  of  them.  But  the  people 

look    to    these    educators    for    intelligence 

and  courage. 

Obviously,  their  hands  were  tied.  They 

knew  that  further  concessions   to   South-

Yet,    they   were   compelled    to    say    "yes"

In  a  previous  issue  of  this  news- 
paper this  column  complimented 
the  Ladies  Auxiliary  of  Major 
John  R.  Lynch  Camp  No.  75  and 
enthusiajitlcally  state<l  that  the 
word  "success"  might  fittingly  be 
inscribed  upon  their  escutcheon. 
It  Is  a  pleasant  task  to  record  the 
partial  accomplishment  of  another 
move  on  the  part  of  this  unit 
which  entitles  it  to  ailil  "plus"  to 
the  inscription.  President  Ida  Har- 
graves  baa  appointed  a  cammittaa 
to  raise  /unds  for  the  procurement 
at  uniforms  for  their  newly  or- 
ganised drill  team,  with  Mrs.  Mar-

perience as  drill  masters, .  we  ven-

(act  that  the  "most  actuating  mo-

the  profits  If  they  are  to  maintain 
a  pUuie  Id  the  social  system.  Mr 
Jackson  pointed  out  that  the  rel- 
ative number  of  Negro  business 
men  is  (ar  below  that  o(  other 
groups.  "Negroes  roust  fill  the 
gap,"  he   said. 

He  said  Negroes  should  spend 
their  money  with  those  businesses 
that  not  only  employ  Negroes 
but  allow  theih  reasonable  oppor- 
tunities for  advancement,  and  of

In  the  parade,  it  was  said,  the 
colored  groups  were  booed  while 
passing  through  the  .sections 
where  the  white  spectators  stood, 
although  they  were  loudly  cheered 
in  colored  neighborhoods.  On  the 
floor  of  the  convention,  the  rep- 
resentative from  the  Oakland 
Post  called  the  attention  of  the 
meeting  to  the  (act  that  the 
FIbrlda  Post  baseball  team  had 
refused  to  play  baseball  with  the 
Massachusetts  Post  because  the 
Maaaachusetts  team  had  a  colored 
boy  playing  on  it.

THERE  .MUST  BE  AN  EXCUSE 

And  we  speak  of  Young  Peter  Jackson's  poor  showing 
at  Madison  Square  Gardens  last  Friday.  Leaving  Califor- 
nia with  the  tSate  lightweight  title  tangling  from  his  best 
and  with  an  enviable  record,  the  hard  hitting  big-time  de- 
but. Of  course,  our  policy  is  against  building  an  athletic 
to  the  skies  via  th«  press  when  he  is  exhibiting  his  wares 
in  a  foreign  spot,  but  it  is  often  necessary.  Easterners,  for 
breakfast,  dinner  and  supper  have  been  getting  several 
doses  of  Young  Peter  Jackson,  the  "Black  Whirlwind"  of 
the  Pacific  Coast  ...  a  new  Chocolate  .  .  .  another 
Walcott  .  .  .  Lang^ord  .  .  .  even  a  second  edition  of  oJe 
Cans.  Jackson  was  appearing  a  double  10-round  main  at 
the  Gardens  against  Tony  Falco,  the  other  half  consisting 
of  Frankie  Klick  and  Harry  Dublinsky.  One  California  boy 
won,  that  was  Klick  of  'Frisco — Jackson  was  a  big  disap- 
pointment and  according  to  press  reports,  finished  a  poor 
second  to  Falco,  who  although  never  defeated  in  N.  Y.,  is 
not  classed  as  a  contender  for  Barney  Ross'  title. 

My  correspondent  claims  that  the  flashy  Negro  was 
not  given  a  chance  to  become  acclimated  after  the  long 
cross  country  hop  and  it  is  hoped  that  Jimmy  Johnston 
will  give  Young  Peter  another  chance,  owing  to  the  fact 
that  he  is  supposed  to  have  signed  for  three  combats.  While 
we  are  not  in  the  habit  of  framing  alibis  for  our  sepia 
stars,  I  know  Peter  Jackson  is  one  of  the  best  lightweights 
in  the  country  today  and  will  redeem  himself  with  another 
showing.

HASTILY  YOURS 

By  Mason  Roberson 


l*Mple  often  ask  me  "why  I  do  not  write  a  play."  Just  why  tbty 
do  this  I  am  unable  to  imagine  They  seem  to  (eel  that  the  only  ne- 
requlslte  to  such  production  la  Hteracy.  However,  be  that  aa  It 
be,  and  It  may  be  almost  anything,  he  answers  I  usually  give 
tbtm  taars  toward  the  highly  imaginative,  varying  with  each  ques- 
tiooer.  For  although  I  can  seldom  tell  you  why  I  do  the  things  I  do, 
I  «aa  always  give  one  reason  (or  not  doing  what  I  do  not  do.  Where 
w«rt   we?  , 

One  answer  that  seems  to  satisfy  everyone  is,  "I've  already  written 
a  play."  A(ter  that  they  go  away  and  never  bother  me  again.  It  may 
be  that  they  have  read  plays  and  know.  .  .  Anyway  that  is  the  best 
answer  I've  (ound,  and  I  pass  It  on  to  others  (or  what  it  is  worth. 

The  scene  Is  laid  in  a  beer  hall,  or  tavern.  Back  stage  there  are  a 
•criaa  of  booths  with  the  entrances  to  them  on  the  back  of  the  stage. 
<Tbe  scene  Is  set  as  if  the  audience  wer2  looking  through  the  wall 
•gainat  which  the  booths  are  set.)  b  that  clear?  O.  K.  Booths  visible 
•re:    S,   S,    and    7. 

Cast  of  ):haracters:   A  whole   lot  o(  artists. 

Wh«n  the  play  opens  there  is  the  sound  of  a  guitar  poorly  played 
by  an  Invisible  musician.  (And  he'd  better  be  a  good  one,  for  he  has 
the  task  of  setting  the  whole  mood  of  the  play  right  at  the  first  so 
that  no  one  will  think  it  (1)  The  Royal  Hotel,  Hawaii;  (2)  A  banjo, 
and  the  whole  thing  Uncle  Tom  Modernized  by  the  Guild;  (S)  "Cowboy 
Moonlight"  since  the  table  cloths  are  those  horrible  red  and  white 
ones.  Checked. 

The  particular  mood  the  guitarist  must  fix  is  rather  a  subtle  one — 
It  must  be  a  tast  modern  number,  but  the  musician  must  put  Into  it 
■11  the  exhaustion,  the  boredom,  the  pessimism  he  feels.  (He's  Just 
coming  out  of  a  SO-day  drunk.  And  when  you  are  coming  out  of  a  30- 
dajr  druntc  completely  surrounded  by  (umes  of  stale  beer — get  the 
idea?) 

.jBol^  3  and  7  contain  two  men  and  two  girls  apiece.  Booth  S 
coDtiUas  two  men  and  one  girl.  Tb«y  must  have  names  but  I've  for- 
gotten them. 

Act  one.  Scene  one.  Music,   lights   (candles),  action: 
Booth  3:  "And  then  we  got  awful  drunk  and  we  all  went  up  to  Mimi's 

and 

Booth  7:  "What's  the  name  of  this  ]olnt?  I  thougtit  we  were  going  up 

to  the  Palace." 
Booth  S:  (Man  A,  looking  through  his  beer  at  the  candle  light)  "What 

an   ingenious   creature   is   man   that  he   could   put   philosophy   into  a 

iwttle.   (He  thinks  that   is  good  and  repeats  It  so  hell  remember  to 
'    a^y  it  again  when  be  gets  the   right  moment.)  .  .  .  "Puts  philosophy 

into  a  bottle." 

Woman :  "I  met  Sherwood  Anderson  in  New  York.  I  think  faels  cute." 

Other  Man:   "Where  in   hell's  the   waiter?  Hey!   Wbats  your   name? 

Joe?  Howabout  some  more  beer?" 
Joe  the  waiter  comes  in.  He  needs  a  shave.  He  needs  sleep.  He 
needs  to  have  his  glands  reground  and  new  oil  put  in.  He  takes  the 
empty  beer  mug,  helps  himself  to  a  cigarette  from  a  pack  someone  has 
carelessly  left  exposed  on  the  table,  looks  at  the  woman,  decides  to 
alup  it  and  disappears  through  the  door  (rear). 
Booth  7:  "What  I  think  is  true,  and  therefore  what   is  true  to  me  is 

part   of    the    Universal    Truth.    This    follows    from    the    discovery    of 

Biahop   Berkeley  that  one   thing  is  aa  real  as  another   if   as  clearly 

comprehended;   and   its  application   to  alt   things   bring  the   universe 

within   the   do|nain   of   organized   speculation." 
Booth  S:   "I  met  Theodore  Dreiser  In  Chicago.   I  think  he's  cute." 

Xsn:   "Where   the  hell   Is  Joe?   I   want   my   beer."    (To   other   Man): 

•'Dfrhy  don't  you  get  drunk  Fred?  You  can't  t^e   this  sort  of  thing 

sober  you   know." 

CXher  Man:  "Drinking  doesn't  do  much  good.  All  I  get  Is  a  stomach 

ache." 

Man  One:  "I  know  what  the  trouble  with  you  is.  You're  afraid  that 

youll  talk.  And  if  you  talked  you   might  spill  some  of  your  secret 

love  affairs,  you   old   fox." 

Woman,  tiastily:  "Why  don't  you  find  out  where  Joe  Is?  I'm  thirsty 

too." 
Booth  7:   "Whatever   is  true   must   somehow  come   Into   my   thought.   I 

must  think  it,  else  it  is  not  true.  This  accords  with  the  great  axiom 

of  Descartes — 'I  think,  therefore  I  am.'" 
Booth  3:  "And  then  we  got  Just  simply  pie-eyed— and  we  were  all  run- 

niiy  up  Market  Street  in  the  middle  of  the  cartracks.  .  .  . 
Booth  5:  Man:    "Joe!  Joe!"  (Exits  rear.) 

Woman :    "Why  don't  you   tell   him?" 

Fred,  nervously:   "Not  now.  He's  too  pie  eyed  to  understand." 

Woman:  "No  he  isn't." 

JTred:   "Yes   he  is." 

Woman:   "Maybe  you  don't  want  to  tell  him." 

Fred:  "Maybe  I  don't." 
Joe  comes  in  with  the  t>eer.  He  puts  it  down  and  starts  to  leave. 
Then  he  sees  that  the  other  man  is  not  there.  He'  stops  and  leans  on 
th«  door   Jam. 

joe:    (to   the   woman)    "Where's  your   husband?" 

Woman:   "Out  looking  for  you.  He's  mad." 

Joe:  (meaningly)  "If  I  was  your  husband  I  wouldn't  leave  you  for  a 

minute." 

Prad:   (eagerly)   'Til  bet  you're  a  sheik  with  the  women.  Hey  Joe?" 

Joo:   (ignoring  him)   "You  know,  you're  the  most  interesting  woman 

rve  ever  seen  in  this  dump.  You  have  an  interesting  mouth." 

Woman:    "Beat  it.  Beat  it,  will  you." 

Joe  leaves.  Woman  turns  to  Fred:  "^ou  wanted  to  keep  him  here 

•oa  w«  couldn't   talk   didn't  you?" 

TVed:   'Talk.   Talk.  Talk    is   a   thing   people   use   socially   when    they 

kavant  anything  to  say."  (That's  not  so  good.  He'll  have  to  polish  It

ON  THE  LYNCHING  OF  CLAUDE  NEAL

WASHINGTON— Secretary  Ick 
es'  announcement  of  the  subsis- 
tence homesteads  projects  for  Ne- 
groes, made  last  Friday,  marks 
the  first  definite  establishment 
of  a  federal  program  for  the  as- 
sistance and  rehabilitation  of  the 
important  Negro  section  of  the 
^Q^erican  population,  it  was  de- 
clared by  Department  of  Interior 
spokesmen   this    week. 

The  Alabama  project  is  but  the 
start  of  a  program  to  provide 
subsistence  homesteads  projects 
for  Negro  homesteaders.  In  ad- 
dition to  the  Alabama  project,  an 
allocation  has  been  approved  for 
i  Negro  unit  at  Dayton,  Ohio, 
and  a  development  for  industrial 
workers  In  Arkansas.  A  large  pro- 
ject Is  contemplated  for  the  Vir- 
gin Islands. 

Nine  Other  Projects  Studied 
In  addition  to  these  projects,  for 
which  allocations  have  been  made, 
no  less  than  nine  proposed  pro- 
jects (or  colored  homesteaders  are 
'being  studied  at  the  present  time 
and  the  ones  with  the  most  (a- 
vorable  features  are  rapidly  being 
pushed  to  a  point  where  alloca- 
tions can  be  made  and  work  be- 
gun. 

These  projects  Include  two  in 
Virginfa,  one  In  Pennsylvania,  one 
in  Indiana,  one  in  Mississippi,  one 
In  South  (Carolina,  one  In  New 
Jersey,  one  in  North  Carolina,  and 
one   in   Maryland. 

All  together,  they  call  for  an 
expenditure  of  approximately  one 
million    dollars. 

A  project  for  Negro  home- 
steaders is  also  being  consider- 
ed for  establishnoent  in  Califor- 
nia. 

The  Alabama  project  will  con- 
sist  of   three   distinct   homestead 
communities.    The    first    oonunu- 
nlty  will  be  located  within  eight 
miles  of  Tuskegee  Institute.  The 
second  unit  will  also  be  In  a  ru- 
ral   section    of    Alabama,    while 
the     third     wUI     be    within     the 
city  limits  of  one  of  the  State's 
Industrial  centers. 
"The   studies   by   the   Division   of 
Subsistence     Homesteads     of     the 
social    and    economic    problems    of 
the    Negro    groups    are    following 
three    main    lines:    homestead   gar- 
dens   in    areas    contiguous    to    in- 
dustrial   cities;    part-time    (arming 
groups;    and    a    distinctly    agricul- 
tural   project,"'    it    wa^  stated    by 
Charles  K.  Pynchon,  general  man- 
ager   of    the    Federal    Subsistence 
Homesteads    Corporation. 

Problem  Faced  Stated 
"The  economic  problems  of  the 
country's  Negro  population  have 
been  particularly  difficult  of  solu- 
tion because  so  large  a  portion  of 
the  population  belongs  to  the  low- 
er wage  group.  As  a  consequence, 
large  numbers  have  been  thrown 
on  relief  during  the  past  few 
years. 

The  problem  of  the  Negro  has 
been  Intensified  In  the  North,  due 
to  great  migration  of  Negroes  to 
northern  cities  during  the  past 
twenty  years.  In  the  South  too, 
the  population  movements  have 
been  cityward.  To  meet  this  sit- 
uation, small  homesteads  of  the 
garden  type  are  being  planned 
for  areas  both  in  the  North  and 
South  near  industrial  centers,  so 
that  the  homesteaders  may  draw

PORTUGUESE  COLONIAL  EXHIBIT  ! 

ATTRACTS  CURIOUS  TO  OPORTO

AFRICAN  NATIVES  AND  MINIATURE  VILLAGES  ON 
DISPLAY  AS  PORTUOl'I'^SE  IMPERIAUSM  I 

IS    TRACED    FKUM     1426 


OPORTO— Although  PoHugal  is  no  longer  the  great 
colonial  power  that  she  was  in  the  15th,  16th  and  17th 
centuries,  this  Uttle  Iberian  nation  of  six  million  inhabitants 
still  seems  to  glory  in  her  past. 

In  order  to  whip  up  the  spirit  of  nationalism  and  im- 
perialism in  the  masses  and  instil  into  the  Portuguese 
youth  what  General  Carmona,  the  dictator,  calls  the  "colo- 
nial mind,"  the  government  has  organized  a  great  exposi- 
tion at  Oporto  where  there  is  being  displayed  all  about  the 
colonies  to  the  stay-at-home  Portuguese. 

The  show  ground  covers  an  extensive  area  with  separ- 
ate pavilions  featuring  the  economic  life  of  each  of  the 
eight  Portuguese  colonies  of  Mozambique,  Angola,  Guinea, 
San  Thome,  Cape  Verde,  Macaru,  Timor,  and  Goo  in  India. 

The  main  pavilion,  situated  right  before  the  entrance 
to  the  exposition  groimd,  is  occupied  by  the  Mozambique 
Company  which  owns  most  of  the  agricultural  and  mineral 
resources  of  Portuguese  East  Africa. 

On  the  opening  day  of  the  exposition.  General  Car- 
mora,  the  dictator  of  Portugal,  accompanied  by  himdreds  of 
generals,  admirals,  high  state  and  church  dignitaries,  as 
well  as  members  of  the  foreign  diplomatic  corps,  attended 
a  ceremony  in  front  of  the  Mozambique  pavilion  where  a 
memorial  in  honor  of  Portuguese  navigators,  discoverers 
and  pioneers  of  colonization  in  Africa  was  unveiled,  amidst 
the  ringing  of  church  bells  and  the  booming  of  cannon. 

In  order  to  realize  the  ancient  glories  of  Portugal,  it  is 
necessary  to  visit  the  Historic  Hall  where  diagrams,  maps, 
charts,  and  models  of  old  slave  ships  are  on  display,  show- 
ing the  various  stages  in  the  development  and  decline  of 
Portuguese  imperialism  from  1426  when  Henry  the  Navi- 
gator sent  his  mariners  down  the  West  Coast  of  Africa  in 
search  of  the  mythical  kingdom  of  Prester  John. 

Here  one  sees  a  plan  of  E^lmina  Castle  on  the  Gold 
Coast,  built  by  the  Portuguese  in  1492  and  used  as  a  slave 
depot  where  the  Africans  were  caught  and  shipped  to 
America  and  the  West  Indies.  Apart  from  Africa,  the  Por- 
tuguese were  also  active  in  Brazil  in  those  days.  Many 
reconis  of  early  Brazilian  colonization  projects  are  depicted 
in  the  Historic  Hall. 

The  most  interesting  features  about  the  whole  exposi- 
tion, however,  are  the  different  miniature  villages  showing 
how  the  natives  in  the  various  Portuguese  colonies  Uve. 
E^ch  village  is  inhabited  by  different  African  tribesmen 
who  go  about  their  daily  life  just  as  they  would  do  if  they 
were  at  home — till  the  farms  and  attend  to  their  cattle  and 
other  domesticated  animals. 

The  women  l<x)k  after  household  affairs,  while  the 
children  run  about  among  the  pigs  and  chicks.  Attached  to 
each  village  is  a  little  "eompoimd"^  or  zoo  with  animals  re- 
presenting the  fauna  of  the  different  colonies. 

Apart  from  this  section  of  the  exhibition,  all  the  other 
sections  are  nothing  but  undisguised  attempts  to  boost 
various  imperialist    imdertakings. 

The  Benguela  Railway  Company  occupies  a  part  of 
the  Mozambique  Pavihon  which  is  built  out  of  stone  and 
other  materials  bought  specially  from  Mozambique.  The 
railway  is  an  Anglo-Portuguese  railway  and  was  built  in 
1934  by  Sir  Robert  WilUams,  the  friend  of  Cecil  Rhodes, 
the  great  South  African  imperialist  and  foimder  of  North- 
em  and  Southern  Rhodesia.  The  railway  (X)nnects  Central 
Africa  with  Europe  by  way  of  Lobito,  the  principal  port  of 
Angola.  The  exhibits  of  the  company  show  the  various  sec- 
tions of  the  railway  and  the  country  which  it  traverses.     ' 

The  Catholic  missionaries,  the  official  religious  sup- 
porters of  the  Portuguese  regime  in  Africa,  have  a  section 
in  the  exposition  showing  various  phases  of  their  mission- 
ary work  in  Angola  and  Mozambique.  Everywhere  one  goes 
African  soldiers  of  the  Portuguese  colonial  army  are  to  be 
seen  dressed  up  in  picturesque  costume  that  seems  more 
suitable  for  comic-opera  players  than  for  modem  warfare.

RELIEVE  LIBERIA  HAS  ACCEPTED  LEAGUE  PLAN 


GENEVA— Liberia  has  obtained 
the  services  of  Dr.  BrundzlnskI 
and  Dr.  Babeckl,  Polish  experts, 
according  to  information  received 
by   the   League   of   Nations. 


to  finish  it  because  certain  official 
documents  dealing  with  diplomatic 
relationships  between  'the  colored 
republic  and  Great  Britain  had  to 
be  looked  up  in  the  British  Mu- 
seum archives. 

In  the  course  of  an  Interview, 
Mr.  AzIkiwe  said  that  although  It 
is  not  his  purpose  to  whitewash 
the  rulers  of  Liberia  who  must  be 
held  responsible  for  much  of  the 
ills  oftbeir  country,  be  will,  nev- 
ertheless, show  by  documentary 
evidence  that  the  various  imperial- 
istic powers^England,  Rmerica, 
France,  and  (Jermany—have  done 
much  to  obstruct  the  development 
of  Liberia. 

Krrord    of    Human    Frailtlos 

"Liberian  history  is  the  record 
of  human  frailUes,"  said,  the 
young  professor.  "It  Is  the  imbod- 
iment  o  fthe  part  which  such  ab- 
stractions Hs  ambif.on.  Jealousy, 
greed,  courage,  and  heroism  play 
In  the  history  of  any  human  or-

of  de  Jure  political  life  are  Inade- 
quate to  pronounce  the  success  or 
failure  of  the  African  to  control 
his  national  destiny. 

"The  republic  is  at  a  transition- 
al stage  of  iU  political  evolution. 
Its  progress  has  been  gradual 
through  the  years.  Nevertheless, 
Liberia  is  destined  to  be  the  me- 
dium of  political  ron*rlo\isne«s

NEW  YORK— An  ImporUnt  in- 
junction which  probably  will  end 
the  picketing  movement  to  force 
the  employment  of  Negro  clerks 
in  stores  in  the  West  12Stb  Str«et 
area,  was  granted  Wednesday  by 
Supreme  Court  Justice  Samuel  I. 
Rosenman.  The  jurist  said  that 
fear  of  race  rioting  as  a  result  of 
the  picket  campaign  influenced 
bis   decision. 

His  decision  was  rendered  In 
the  injunction  petition  of  the  A. 
S.  Beck  shoe  stores  against  the 
Rev.  John  H.  Johnson,  as  head  of 
the  iCtizens'  eLague  for  Fair 
Play:  Arthur  Reid,  as  president  of 
the  African  Patriotic  League,  and 
Ira  Kemp,  James  Thornhill,  Hen- 
ry Veal.  Homer  Nichols,  Clifford 
Lee  and  five  other  individuals 
formerly  connected  with  the  ICti- 
zens' League  for  Fair  Play,  but 
now  constituting  a  picketing  com- 
mittee of  their  own. 

Justice  Rosenman's  order  elimi- 
nated the  iCtizens'  League  for 
Fair  Play  and  the  African  Patri- 
otic League  as  defendants,  but 
banned  the  picketing  committees 
from  attacldng  the  Beck  branch 
store  at  264  West  latito  Street, 
where  pickets  with  signs  have 
been  posted  since  September  21, 
when  the  store  management  re- 
fused to  comply  with  demands 
that  50  per  cent  of  the  store's  em- 
ployees should  be  Negroes  select- 
ed by  the  picketing  committee. 
Predicts   ConHlct 

The  jurist  recognized  the  right 
of  labor  unions  or  trade  organi- 
zations to  picket  or  conduct 
strikes  for  the  purpose  of  securing 
better  wages,  shorter  hours  or 
bettering  the  working  conditions 
of  their  members,  and  ruled  that 
in  the  present  case  no  claim  is 
made  that  any  interest  of  organ- 
ized labor  is  involved.  The  court 
said  that  this  was  a  dispute  of 
one  race  as  opposed  to  another. 

Analyzing  the  right  of  the  de- 
fendants to  picket  the  plaintiff's 
store,  the  court  decided  that  "the 
defendants  do  not  constitute  a 
labor  union  or  a  labor  organiza- 
tion of  any  kind.  They  do  not 
compose  nor  are  they  all  mem- 
bers of  any  single  trade  or  class 
of  trades.  Their  demands  are  not 
connected  with  any  one  industry. 
The  questions  about  which  they 
are  now  picketing  have  no  con- 
nection with  wages,  hours  of  la- 
bor, unionization  or  betterment  of 
working    conditions." 

"It  is  solely  a  racial  dispute," 
Justice  Roseman  decided.  "It  is 
born  of  an  understandable  desire 
on  the  part  of  some  of  the  Ne- 
groes in  this  community  that  the 
stores  In  their  neighl>orhood  where 
they  spend  their  money  should 
employ  a  percentage  of  Negro 
help.  Their  exclusive  concern  is 
that  a  certain  number  of  white 
persons  be  discharged  in  order  to 
make  place  for  members  of  their 
own    race." 


Verbal  Snapshots 


By  W.  J.  Wheaton 

As  this  column  is  written  Mr 
and  Mrs.  Citizen,  millions  strong, 
are  marching  to  the  polls  to  exert 
their  right  as  sovereign  subjects 
of  a  great  democracy.  In  the  47 
units  comprising  the  todays  elec- 
tions there  are  many  different 
problems  to  solve  Maine,  the  48th 
unit,  has  cast  her  vote.  Although 
there  are  as  many  angles  to  the 
political  problems  as  there  are 
States,  the  main  naUonal  Issus  Is 
centered    in   the    "New   Deal."   The 

;  Republican   party  seeks  to  asperse 

I  tbs   recovery    efforts   of    the    pres- 

'cnt  Administration  and  claim  that 
a   notable   gain    in   the    House   and 

I  Senate  will  point  the  direction  of 
the     wind     in     the     1936     national 

I  election.  So  far  the  most  optimis- 
tic of  the  CK)P  fail  to  see  any 
gain  in  the  Senate — probably  a 
loss— and,    though    they    may    add 

j  to  the  number  In  the  House  the 
Democrats  will  still  have  a  com- 
fortable   working    majority.    Of    all 

I  the  states  holding  their  elections, 
California  presents  the  most  inter- 
esting of  any.  It  has  three  candi- 
dates for  the  office  of  governor. 
One  a  Socialist  wearing  the  label 
of  democracy:  one  a  conservative 
GOP,  the  other  a  Progressive 
nominated  by  the  Commonwealth 
party.  Up  until  two  weeks  ago 
the  Sacialist-Democrat  had  a  tre- 
mendous following.  It  was  gained 
on  his  promise  to  banish  poverty 
from  the  State  of  California. 
Coming  into  the  home  stretch  the 
candidate  of  the  (30P  punctured 
the  Utopian  dream  of  the  banisher 
of  poverty;  party  lines  were  wiped 
away  and  dissolved  like  the  mist 
under  a  summer  sun.  The  Ele- 
phant and  the  Donkey  marched 
side  by  side  in  perfect  harmony. 
Anything  to  defeat  the  "Red  Men- 
ace." There  seems  to  be  strong 
undercurrent  for  the  third  candi- 
date and  it  will  not  be  a  great 
surprise  to  see  him  poll  a  big 
vote.  The  nation  is  watching  the 
outcome  of  today's  electlcn  in 
California,  and  its  vote  will  be  a 
determining  barometer  by  whi(4 
to  gauge  the  trend  of  the  public 
mind. 


One     of     the     foremost     Baptist 
preachers,    in    an    ordination    ser- 
mon,    rapped     what     he     termed, 
"The    racketeering    preacher." 
The  preacher  who  was  out  for  the 
dollar   and   placed   his   own    mater- 
ial  advancement   above    the    wants 
and   needs  of  his  pastorate.   Rack- 
ets of  any  kind  are  to  be   lament- 
ed,    but    the    man    or     men     who 
create     a     RACKET     out     of     his 
church     or     fraternal      obligations 
I  are  DESPICABLE.   Such   men   are 
too    small    for    contempt    and    too 
loathsome      for      human      contact. 
I  When    one    considers    how    bard   It 
'  is     for    the    average     Negro     man 
and  woman   to  earn   a    dollar,   and 
'  how    they    willingly    dispense    with 
I  that    money    in    the    cause    of    re- 
I  ligion     and     fraternnlism,     it     be- 
I  comes   the    lowest   kind   of   racket- 
I  cering     when     some     preacher     or 
'  head   of   a   fraternity   exploit   them 
I  and    convert,    what    was    given    to 
forward     a     righteous     cause,     to 
their  own   material   use.  .Some  day 
there    will    be    a    great    awakening 
and     the     exploited,     both     church 
and   fraternal,  will   arise  and  drive 
the    lecherous    exploiters    from    the 
TEMPLE.

ur.  Moton  said  he  realized  that 
memberk  of  one  race  had  an  in- 
stinctive dislike  for  close  contact 
with  those  of  another,  and  re- 
marked that  this  was  true  of  the 
Negro  ns  well  us  nf  the  white 
man,  but  said  he  could  see  no 
reason  why  thin  should  prevent

On  lynching  he  said,  "Tills  la 
terrible  to  Kay,  but  the  more  ter- 
rible, the  more  revolting,  they 
are,  the  sooner  public  sentlinrnt 
will  rliM-  atcainst  them.  I  abhor 
lawlesHnms,  but  as  I  say,  the 
more  horrible  they  are,  the  nwrti 
sentiment  is  developed  agalaat 
them." 

He  declined  to  cnmiiient  on 
any  sprritlc  Instance  and  when 
asked  about  the  IScottebaro  rose, 
said,  "It  has  been  discussed  too 
much   already." 

t'ondrnms  Planned  Segregation 
He  condemned  the  practice  of 
segregating  the  races  in  any  way, 
but  said,  "It  is  the  only  thing,  aa 
conditions  now  obtain  in  many 
parts  of  the  country.  If  you  leave 
the  Negro  alone  and  Just  let 
things  settle  themselves,  the  av- 
erage Negro  will  go  with  the  peo- 
ple of  his  own  race."  The  desire  to 
be  with  his  own  kind,  with  those 
he  understands  and  by  whom  he 
in  understood,  would  effect  a  na- 
tural segregation,  he  said.

BBUIN    DRIVE    TO    FREE 
ATLANTA     PRISONERS 

NEW  YORK— (CNA)— A  nation 
wide  ca.mpaign  to  free  the  negro 
and  white  workers  held  in  Ocorg- 
ir  was  announced  this  week  by 
the  National  Executive  Committee 
of  the  International  Workers'  Or- 
der, a  cooperative  workers'  in- 
surance society,  with  headquarters 
at   80  Fifth  Avenue  in  this  city. 

Of  the  arrested  workers,  seven 
Negro  men  and  women  are  held 
on  charges  of  "Possessing  and  dlk- 
tributing  insurrectionary  litera- 
ture", l>ecause  they  had  member- 
ship cards  in  the  InternaUonal 
Workers  Order.  The  I  WO.  will 
cooperate  in  these  cases  with  the 
International    Labor   Defense. 

Four  others  are  held  on  a 
charge  of  "inciting  to  insurrec- 
tion", which  carries  a  possible 
penalty  of  death.  Among  the  four 
is*  Charles  Weaver,  Negro,  Presi- 
dent of  the  Atlanta  Painters  and 
Plasterers    Union.

HAMPTON  INSTITUTE.  Hamp- 

|ton,  Va.   Nov.    II      The  drama  is  a 

•  broad    field    of    art    expression    for 

the   Negro   only   if   hla    playwrighta 

]  use     Negroid     themes     exchisively 

This  view  la  expressed   by  Richard 

B.    Harrison,    famous   star   of   "The 

Green    Pastures,"    in    an    exclusive 

interview    given    to    the    editor    of 

,The    Southern    Workman,    at    the 

InaUtute    recently,    and    printed    in 

the     November     number     af     that 

journal 

Asked  whether  the  drama  is  to 
be  one  of  the  great  fields  of  art 
expression  for  the  Negro.  Mr 
HarriaOD  replied:  "No,  net  unless 
the  race  produces  writers  of  plays 
in  aufficicnt  numbers,  aad  that 
we  are  not  doing  at  present  "  He 
was  asked  "You  mean,  then,  that 
your  answer  is  in  the  affirmative. 
If  wc  have  a  sufficient  uumtwr  of 
Negro     playwrights  ■"' 

I  do,  emphatically,  but  a  con- 
dition attaches  to  (hat."  was  Mr. 
Harriaooa    reply    "Tlie    frames    of 

*«^  wsTa  ,  >ii,  ,\ntm .  <tot   be 

Negroid,  definitely  and  emphatic- 
ally""  \ 

The  InterN-lewer  said:  "Let  me 
get  this  ciesr.  Mr.  Harrison  Do 
you  mean  that  the  Negro  play- 
wright rtands  little  chance  of 
success  if  he  enters  the  broad 
field  of  dramatic  writing,  taking 
hia  themes  from  any  subject,  just 
OS    other    play-wrights    do""" 

To  thi5  he  replied:  "That  is 
precisely  what  1  mean.  So  far  as 
my  information  goes,  no  Negro 
playwright  has  succeeded  In  hav- 
ing any  of  his  offerings  accepted 
and  produced  with  sun-rB.\  if  they 
drall  with  themes  of  different 
type  As  I  see  it.  the  themes  must 
be  Nritroid  if  they  are  to  have 
universal  acceptance  " 

Mr  Harrison  made  it  i  Irar  that 
he  Is  not  at  all  unfriendly  to 
while  ploj-wnghts  "Because  I  say 
that  the  Negro  playwright  must 
deal  with  themes  which  are  Ne- 
groid, and  that  he  can  write  in 
this  vein  better  than  white  play- 
wrights, do  not  understand  me  to 
mean  any  unkindllness  to  white 
playwrights.  They  write  about  the 
Negro:  but  I  think  the  Negro  can 
do  the  job  better.  He  knows  the 
thoughU  nnd  the  language,  and 
understands  the  ideals  and  aspir- 
I  atlons  of  the  Negro.  He  Is  a  Ne- 
;  gro  hinvieir.  and  has  lived  through 
the  ex|>erience  of  one.  The  suc-

LOS  ANGELES.  —  Everyone  la 
aware  that  prices  on  food  stuffs 
are  going  up  along  with  the  cost 
of  living,  generally.  However,  Mr 
Manuel  L  Murrell  of  402  Pico 
Blvd.,  Santa  Monica,  encountered 
a  rise  In  the  price  of  milkshakes 
that  exceeded  the  wildest  hopes 
of  the  Farm  Administration 
Hoard:    (25  a   piece 

Mr.  Murrell.  his  wife,  Mrs.  Julia 
V.  Murrell  and  Miss  Mamie  Lu- 
Valle,  lister  of  Jimmie  LuValle, 
noted  U.  C.  L.  A.  track  star,  en- 
tered a  cafe  on  the  window  of 
which  was  prominently  displayed 
a  sign  rending  "Jumbo  Malted 
Milk,    10    cents." 

The  trio  ordered  three  malted 
milks  and  were  promptly  In- 
formed that  they  would  cost  US 
per  glass.  A  ticket  was  made  out 
for  $79  for  the  three  malted  milks 
and  the  person  in  charge  of  the 
cafe  insisted  that  Murrell  pay  the 
{75    before    he    was    served    with 


Arthur  W.  Mitchell.  37,  victori- 
es over  DePriest  in  the  Novue-m 
ous  over  DePriest  in  the  Novem- 
ber 7  election,  in  the  First  (<nii- 
cago)  ni.  District,  became  the 
first  Negro  in  the  history  of 
Congre.is  to  be  elected  on  the 
Democratic    ticket. 

Mr  Mitchell  was  born  in  Ala- 
bama where  he  had  a  distin- 
guished'r«cord  as  an  educator  be- 
fore he  left  to  take  up  the  prac- 
tice of  law  in  Washington,  D  C. 
He  was  In  Washington  for  two 
decades  nearly  until  after  the 
election  of  1928  when  he  moved 
with   his   family   to  Chicago. 

In  the  1928  campaign,  Mr.  Mit- 
chell was  employed  at  the  Repub- 
Ucan  wesUm  headquarters  in  Chi- 
cago. Not  long  after  Hoover  was 
elected,  he  professed  himself  dis- 
ippointed  by  the  Hoover  policies, 
ind  changed  his  political  affllla- 
Jon.  He  was  an  active  supporter 
it  Franklin  D.  Roosevelt  io  the 
.:ampaigi>   of   193X 

Charges    DePriest    Neglected 

In  the  campaign  just  closed  Mr. 
Kitchen  charged  that  Mr.  De- 
Priest had  neglected  the  vital  in- 
.erests  of  his  constituents.  He 
net  the  DePriest  charge  that  the 
New  Deal  had  meant  misery  to 
many  colored  people,  by  stating 
that  although  some  colored  people 
might  have  suffered  in  establish- 
ing the  program,  the  general  di- 
rection of  New  Deal  alms  was  in 
line  with  betterment  for  all  class- 
es including  the  colored  man  and 
that    time    would    bring    benefits. 

Two  factors  added  the  election 
jf  Mr  Mitchell.  The  first  was  the 
.'act  that  he  is  colored.  Always 
jcfore  the  I>emocratic  party  had 
mpportcd  a  white  candidate,  but 
when  the  white  man  nomicated  io 
the  prima»  died,  Mr.  Mitobell 
«as  aaapM^^^^th*.  Demacwtia 
county  central  committee.  As  a 
result,  be  fen  heir  to  the  large 
block  of  white  Democratic  votes 
in  the  district,  as  well  as  the 
growing  percentage  of  black  Dem- 
ocratic votes  which  the  white 
candidate  could  not  win. 

Furthermore,  during  the  spring 
primary  campaign,  Mr.  DePriest 
split  the  Republican  party  ranks 
by  taking  sides  in  a  knock-down 
and  drag-out  battle  between  two 
Republican  leaders  in  the  second 
ward.  The  man  oppoeed  by  De- 
Priest won.  In  the  election  it  was 
demonstrated  that  he  failed  to 
completely  win  back  the  Republi- 
cans whose  support  he  had  alien- 
ated   in   the    primary. 

The  unofficial  vote  count  by 
the  Board  of  Election  Commis- 
sioners is:  Mitchell,  27,970:  De- 
Priest.   24440. 

DePriest.  the  first  Negro  elected 
to  Congress  in  27  years,  will  have 
served  three  terms.  Mitchell,  be- 
sides being  the  first  Negro  Demo- 
crat, will  be  the  22nd  Negro  to 
serve  In  the  House  of  Representa- 
tives.

nt  the  trial  of  Mrs.  Temple  Wil- 
son and  her  son  Luther  which 
was  scheduled  to  op«n  here  on 
November  l.'i.  The  two  are  charg- 
ed with  complicity  in  the  killing

on  July  21,  when  he  attempted  to 
enter  their  premises  without  a 
warrant  and  arrest  Jerome  Wil- 
son, son  of  Mrs.  Wilson.  Several

trial    was    promptly    filed.

I  know  It's  rotten  but  here's  my ; 
slam    on    the    game    called    life.    If 
you     take     ths     bitter     with     the 
sweet  here's  the  bitter 
In    "Life's"    big    drama,    some    are

VVhile  some  are  rats  and  chistlers.!

eryday life  just  Neva  PeopUs, 
lA;ster  Skaggs,  and  Sleepy  Wil- 
liams, are  billed  for  China  .soon. 
Sleepy's  chair  act  is  nothing  short 
of  sensational.  Each  of  the  trio 
can  hold  their  own  anywhere.  • 
Met  the  cbarmln'  little  Marion 
Ucasley.  She  was  a  member  of 
the  famous  Irene  We,st,  troupe  ut 
the  present  touring  Europe.  They 
call  her  "Dimples"  but  from  the 
way  she  can  shake  her  hips  I'd 
cull  her  "Pepper."  She's  hot  with 
a  lot  of  that  thing  called  "IT." 
She  mny  rejoin  Irene  We.st  In 
London  0  Luana  Belvlne,  panlon 
me,  I  forgot  to  tack  Williams  on 
the  end  of  her  name  will  I  un- 
derstand open  at  the  "Dawr. 
Cafe  "  She  gave  "Sleepy"  Wil- 
liams a  break  and  married  him.

•Bottoms"  Smith,  .Sleepy  Wil- 
liams, Jimmy  Johnson,  Rutledge

were  guest  artists  at  Club  Ala- 
baui.  They  kept  the  ones  with  the 
filthy  lucre  reaching  in  the  old 
Jeans.  It  sounded  like  a  rain  of 
small  change.  Ooop!  1  can't  leave 
"Dancing"  Nat  out  of  It.  He  was 
there  slinging  hoofs  every  which 
a-wha'.  •  Seen  at  the  •"Bam"

a  group  of  friends.  Duke  Brown

Week   of   November    16,    1934 

ELECTION— TURNS  AND  BETUBNS 

The  election  is  over,  and  we  can  now 
pick  up  our  papers  once  more  without 
seeing  the  entire  front  pages  devoted  to 
vilUfication  of  the  candidates  of  the  oppo- 
sition. Some  of  these  much-criticized  men 
are  in  office  .  .  .  and  ail  we  can  now  do 
is  count  the  dead. 

The  mortality  rate  among  Republicans 
was  very  high:  Pennsylvania's  Reed. 
Ohio's  Fees,  New  Jersey's  Kean  ...  so 
nuny  were  defeated  that  they  ceased  be- 
ing important  as  individuals  and  became 
a  mass-symbol  of  the  power  of  President 
Roosevelt  and  his  New  Deal. 

A  few  months  ago,  on  his  return  from 
a  vacation  trip  to  Hawaii,  Mr.  Roosevelt, 
in  public  addresses,  indicated  that  he  was 
going  even  farther  io  the  direction  he  has 
already  moved;  i.  e.  left.  This  was  not,  of 
course,  news  so  much  as  it  was  confirma- 
tion. 

That  the  public  is  in  favor  of  this  New 
Deal  was  indicated  by  the  overwhelming 
majority  of  Democratic  votes  piled  up  in 
the  election.  The  country  clearly  said,  "Go 
ahead,  Mr.  President,  we're  for  you!" 
And  that  Mr.  President  will  do  just  that, 
there  is  now  no  doubt  This  election  made 
it  certain  that  he  would  be  able  to  carry 
out  his  plans  without  interference. 

Only  64  votes  are  needed  in  tne  Senate 
•  for  a  two-thirds  majority.  Present  Demo- 
cratic strength  in  the  Senate  is  sixty 
seats.  The  new  (74th)  Congres  which  will 
be  seated  in  January  will  have  69  Demo- 
crats— and  may  even  go  over  70.  This  is 
a  greater  one-party  majority  than  was 
ever  before  attained  in  the  Upper  House 
in  the  history  of  that  institution.  And  it 
is  more  than  enough  to  form  a  bloc  which 
can  railroad  through 'any  legislation  the 
party  may  desire. 

President  Roosevelt  will  have,  on  Jan- 
uary 3,  more  nearly  the  power  of  an  ab- 
wrfute  monarch  than  any  president  ever 
had,  except  in  wartime. 

That  the  people  gave  him  this  power 
is  proof  of  the  country's  faith  in  the 
"New  Deal."  The  election  was  more  than 
a  straw  in  the  wind — it  was  a  bale  of 
straw  in  a  gale — blowing  left 

No  interpretation  of  this  election, 
however,  would  be  complete  without  in- 
cluding the  voice  of  the  critics.  Of  these 
the  most  articulate  is  shrewd  Al  Smith, 
the  man  who  had  a  beer  named  after  his 
hat  Mr.  Smith  said,  in  interpretation  of 
the  landslide,  "No  sane  local  poUtician 
who  has  bimg  up  an  empty  stocking  over 
the  municipal  fireplace  is  going  to  shoot 
Santa  Claus  just  before  a  hard  Christ- 
Santa  Qaus,  is,  of  course,  the  "Emer- 
gency" expenditures  by  the  Administration 
of  well  over  a  billion  dollars  in  the  last 

four  months.

THE  CAT  CAME  BACK 

Mr.  McAdoo,  Mr.  Creel  and  several 
other  "New  Deal"  stalwarts  threw  Sin- 
clair to  the  wolves  in  the  recent  election, 
calling  his  "EPIC"  plan  a  wholly  imprac- 
tical dream.  Their  statements  were  freely 
three-sheeted  about  the  state  and  filled  the 
headlines  and  front  pages  of  all  the  news- 
papers— contributing  no  Uttle  to  the  defeat 
of  the  Democratic  Candidate. 

Now  we  learn  from  Washington  that 
among  the  projects  being  considered  to 
take  care  of  the  annual  winter  increase  of 
imcmployed  throughout  the  country  is  a 
plan  similar  to  if  not  identical  with  the 
"impractical"  "EPIC."  Thus  far  the  va- 
rious plans  tried,  such  as  direct  relief, 
"Make  Work"  PWA  projects,  and  the 
elaborate  and  clumsy  reconstruction  me- 
chanism have  all  proved  imperfect. 

Should  the  Administration  fall  on  the 
EPIC  scheme  it  would  be  an  interesting 
sight  to  watch  Messrs.  Creel,  McAdoo,  et 
al,  rapidly  pulling  in  their  horns  and 
jumping  on  the  bandwagon.  However  we 
don't  feel  that  the  gentlemen  will  find  it 
difficult  to  play  the  role  of  turncoat  .  .  . 
a   chauvanistic    politician    is    usually   one 

who  is  now  out  of  office.

THE  NEAL  LYNCHING 

THE  RECURRENT  horror  that  is  a  . 
lynching  is  stuffing  the  White  House  mail 
box  with  petitions,  telegrams  and  letters 
expressing  protest  of  various  individuals 
and  organizations  against  injustice.  Hard- 
ly a  clear-thinking  man  or  woman  in  A- 
merica  but  desires  to  do  something  toward 
ending  this  sickening  condition.  .  .  .  And 
so  they  write  a  letter. 

But  letters,  petitions,  and  telegrams 
are  so  common  in  Washington  that  their 
absence  would  probably  be  a  more  ef- 
fective attack.  And  liowever  conscious 
we,  might  be  of  the  "manifest  injustice" 
and  of  how  things  "should  be",  the  un- 
pleasant fact  that  is  American  History 
points  the  futility  of  any  attempt  by  a 
disorganized  minority  group  to  gain  a 
square  deal  through  any  method  so  in- 
effectual as  that  of  calling  it  to  the  at- 
tention of  the  Administration. 

There  is  only  one  way  to  a  lasting  cor- 
rection of  this  evil:  make  our  office-hold- 
ers conscious  of  the  power  of  our  organi- 
zed vote.  We  have  an  excellent  lesson  in 
the  American  Legion.  With  little  more 
than  a  third  of  the  number  of  voters, 
this  group,  through  soUdity  and  perse- 
verance has  hammered  legislation  thru 
Congress  that  makes  it  today  the  recipi- 
ent of  more  political  consideration  than 
any  group  in  America,  with  the  possible 
exception  of  the  big-money  interests. 

"The  Negro  could  do  the  same  and 
more.  We  can  best  protest  the  Neal  lynch- 
ing by  working  toward  closer  political 
unity  within  our  own  people.  A  petition 
is  merely  an  expression  of  weakness.

FOR    DR.    MOTON— HAPPY    DAYS 

After  19  years  at  Tuskegee,  during 
which  he  lifted  it  to  a  sound  financial  and 
collegiate  basis,  Principal  R.  R.  Moton 
last  week  resigned,  calling  attention  to  the 
fact  that  he  had  remained  two  years  be- 
yond the  period  fixed  for  ordinary  retire- 
ment. 

Dr.  Charles  W.  Eaiiot  of  Harvard  said 
he  remained  as  president  as  long  as  he 
could  go  up  the  steps  two  at  a  time.  Dr. 
Moton's  call  for  younger  shoulders  to  bear 
the  burden  of  administration  at  Tuskegee 
is  another  way  of  stating  the  Harvard 
principle  discovered  by  Dr.   Eliot. 

Few  of  Dr.  Moton's  friends  who  saw 
him  leave  Hampton  Institute  19  years  ago 
for  Tuskegee,  where  he  walked  into  a 
powition  left  vacant  by  the  death  of  Book- 
er T.  Washington,  ventured  to  predict  the 
uniform  success  that  has  been  his. 

Today  he  steps  down  with  the  good 
will  of  Tuskegee  and  its  friends  and  with 
the  benediction  of  thousands  of  Ameri- 
cans who  appreciated  his  effors  as  elder 
sUteeman  and  adviser  of  presidents. 

The  AFRO  joins  its  readers  every- 
where in  wishing  for  Dr.  Moton,  in  his 
retirement,  good  health,  good  luck,  and 
happy  days.— Baltimore  Afro-American.

Hy  W.  J.  Wbe«toa 

What  does  the  result  of  the 
recent  elections  portend?  Ar«  Ne- 
groes coming  into  their  own  po- 
litically? Those  are  questions  for 
thought. 

It  is  evident  that  he— the  Negro 
-is  less  partisan  minded.  He  is 
not  the  hide-bound  political  ad- 
herent that  characterized  his  fore- 
bears. Men  and  issues  are  more 
to  him;  the  welfare  of  the  na- 
tion at  large  is  greater  far  in  his 
estimation  than  the  legislation 
that  Nets  him  apart  as  an  alien. 
Yes,  as  an  alien  in  the  very 
country  that  he  helped  to  maice 
prosperous.  In  the  nation  that 
he  helped  to  found,  and  gave  of 
his  life  blood  to  preserve.  It  is  a 
sure  sign  of  progress  when  we 
note  that  where  a  Negro  of  one 
political  faction  has  been  de- 
feated, another  Negro  has  suc- 
ceeded him,  and  in  each  case  the 
successor  has  bean  a  Negro  with 
advanced  Ideas.  Who  would  ever 
have  thought  that  a  Negro  would 
have  been  elected  by  the  Demo- 
cratic Party  to  •  seat  in  the  Con- 
gress of  the  United  States?  But 
it  has  been  done.  And  a  young 
man  who  espoused  the  cause  of 
Jefferson  and  Jackson  has  de- 
feated an  extremely  conservative 
legislator  with  an  experience  of 
16  years  in  the  California  Assem- 
bly.   Both    are   Negroes!

This  younger  generation  has 
thrown  off  the  yoke.  It  used  to 
be  thought  an  heinous  crime  to 
be  affiliated  with  any  other  poli- 
tical movement  save  that  which 
bore  the  label  of  the  Elephant. 
The  name  of  Abraham  Lincoln 
was  used  to  hypnotize  the  un- 
thinking, although  the  Party  has 
departed  from  the  early  precepts 
of  Lincoln  and  its  tounders,  long 
ago. 


Whatver  political  progress  that 
will  be  made  in  the  future  will  be 
made  by  the  young,  progressive 
Negro,  who  will  merge  himself 
as  a  whole  In  the  affairs  of  the 
nation.  He  will  be  insistent  that 
no  special  laws  are  enacted  for 
his  especial  benefit,  but  that  be 
be  given  the  same  treatment,  un- 
der the  law,  given  to  all  others. 
On  the  whole,  the  outlook  looks 
brighter.  The  outrages  committed 
through  racial  hatreds  are  being 
condemned  and  protested  by  in- 
fluential men  and  women.  The 
more  heinous  the  crime,  the  more 
forcible  it  is  brough  home  to 
the  notice  of  the  people  and  pub- 
lic opinion  is  being  wrought  to 
a  degree  of  revulsion  against  the 
perpetrators  heretofore  unknown. 
The  most  ignorant  hill-billy  that 
ever  came  down  from  the  moun- 
tains soon  learns  that  it  is  not 
alone  unpopular,  but  unsafe,  to 
right  public  opinion.  Governors, 
sherifs,  and  other  oficers  of  the 
law  who  deliver  prisoners  in  their 
custody  to  the  ravages  of  a  brutal 
mob,  win  no  more  be  derelict  In 
their  duties.  Public  opinion  has 
reached  the  ear  of  our  national 
law  makers  and  demanded  the 
attention  of  the  President  In  the 
White  House.  The  churchmen  have 
been  aroused,  North  and  South, 
and  have  voiced  their  protests 
against  the  violation  of  the  law 
and  the  tnedcncy  to  make  a  force 
of  constituted  government.  We 
believe  that  the  independent  ten- 
dency of  thought  and  the  unsel- 
fish spirit  exhibited  by  the  young- 
er generation  of  Negro  men  and 
women  has  much  to  do  with  the 
change.  When  they  came  to  the 
Cross  Roads  of  our  racial  desti- 
ny, they  chose"  ~rte  "fight  course. 
Many  nt  the  ould.  conservative 
element  stood  horrified  and  sought 
to  deter  them;  but  with  the  cou- 
rage of  youth  they  turned  Into  the 
path,  which  many  believed  full 
of  danger,  that  bids  to  do  that 
for  which  we  are  striving,  the  re- 
cogniUon  of  ourselves  as  an  In- 
tegral   part  of   the   nation. 


fornia,  we  wish  to  thank  you  for 
the  great  support  that  you  gave 
the  \oleran  acts,  amendments  1 
and  2,  on  November  6.  You  by 
your  ballot  have  said  that  you 
can  never  do  enough  for  us  who 
gave  our  last  measure  of  devotion 
for  you  and  this  great  country. 
Again  we  thank  you  in  all  sin- 
cerity. 

Tho  Post  was  Invited  to  attend 
the  Armistice  Day  services  at 
Bethel  A  M.  E.  Church  last  Sun- 
day, by  the  pastor.  Rev.  ^i".  A. 
Hughes.  Most  of  the  Post  was 
present  to  hear  a  great  sermon 
delivered  by  a  great  pastor.  We 
are  glad  that  we  were  invited.  It 
gave    us   something   to   think    over. 

We  will  gladly  participate  in 
anything  that  is  for  the  better- 
ment of  the  race,  state,  and  the 
community.  Just  let  us  know  in 
time  and  we  will  be  there  to  as- 
sist you  as   much  as  we  can. 

On  last  Sunday  afternoon,  a 
service  was  held  at  the  Veterans 
Hospital  (Fort  Miley)  to  honor 
Armistice  Day.  This  writer  was 
present   at   that   service. 

A,  H.  Wall  Po.st  would  greatly 
appreciate  the  attendance  of  our 
group  at  these  different  celebra- 
tions.   You    are    always    welcome. 

We  would  love  to  see  you  take 
a  more  active  part  in  our  meet- 
ing than  you  have  in  the  past.  We 
meet  on  the  first  and  third  Fri- 
day night  of  each  month  and  we 
like  to  see  you  there  and  for  you 
to  become  more  acquainted  with 
the  Legion  and  American  Legion 
affairs.  We  will  also  appreciate 
your    membership    into   the   Post. 

Read  The  Spokesman  as  well  as 
your  daily  papers  for  the  activi- 
ties concerning  A.  H.  Wall  Post. 
And  watch  this  column  for  news 
from   the   Dugout.,

Pork  Dizr.y  Woodlyn  evidently 
spoke  out  of  turn.  Having  no 
dog  house,  he  came  up  with  a 
beautiful  shiner.  Looks  very  much

never   cease.. 

Two  dark  horses  arc  In  the 
race  for  Governor  and  Lieutenant 
Governor  of  the  State  of  Calif-

Their  names  were  actually  written 
in  and  appeared  on  the  list  at

ing booth,  Berkeley.  They  were 
only  defeated  by  2,318,000  votes, 
and  The  Jew  is  asking  for  a  re-

Speaking  of  elections,  yours 
truly  was  swept  into  office  as 
one  of  the  six  members  on  the

ROD  AND  GUN  CLUB 


Comrade  Austin  J.  Nottage  of 
Col.  Charles  Young  Post  No.  269 
of  the  American  Legion,  returned 
from    Miami    where    he    attended    refreshment     committee,     gave     us 


Those  who  attended  the  regular 
meeting  of  the  East  Bay  Rod  and 
Gun  Club  on  November  7  were 
given  a  grand  treat.  A  moving 
picture  of  the  Shasta  trout  hatch- 
ery, the  largest  in  the  world,  was 
furnished  by  C^l  Howlett  of  Sears 
Roebuck  and  Co.  From  the  egg  to 
a  full  '  size  ^pawning  trout  we 
watched  the  little  game  fish  grow 
—and  his  development  was  inter- 
esting. 

The  meeting  was  well  attended. 
Mrs.   Persley  and  Mrs.   Wakes,   the 


It  is  often  wondered  why  the 
average  Negro  takes  more  Inter- 
est In  matters  that  don't  concern 
him  than  In  events  that  should  in- 
terest him  greatly.  When  some 
notorious  Inw  breaker  is  killed 
or  runs  afoul  of  the  law,  the 
barber  shop  law  dispensers  are 
loud  In  their  criticisms.  Wc  over- 
heard loud  lamentations  over  the 
killings  of  Dlllinger  and  his  co- 
horts. The  officers  who  did  the 
killing  were  denounced,  and  the 
killings  were  called  cowardly  acts. 
We  happened  to  glance  at  a  pa- 
per lying  by  and  It  was  making 
an  appeal  for  every  Negro  to 
write  his  congressman  or  U.S. 
senator  in  behalf  of  the  Federal 
antf-lynching  bill  which  will  be 
presented  at  the  Incoming  Con- 
gress. There  was  not  one  of  the 
group  who  had  taken  notice  t>f 
that  appeal,  and  when  It  was 
called  to  their  attenlion.  It  was 
as  quickly  forgotten.  Now  they 
are  all  wrought  up  over  Tom 
Mooney.  The  United  States  Su- 
preme Court  has  oredered  Warden 
Holohan.  Snn  Quentin  Prison,  to 
show  cause  why  Mooney  should 
not  be  allowed  to  file  a  petition 
for  a  writ  of  babens  corpus  The 
Warden  has  foKjr  days  in  which 
to  reply.  Now  one  ran  hear  more 
whys  and  why  nots  among  Ne- 
groes. We  listened  In  vain  for 
some  one  to  mantlon  the  fate  of 
the  two  Scottsboro  boys.  Not  a 
word!  ,, 

Haiti  Is  shlpateg  coffee  to  the 
United  States.  If  Is  said  that  the 
Haitian  brand -4*^  superior  tn  any 
ohtrc    brand    cyj^ng    from    South 


the  National  American  Legion 
Convention  as  a  delegate,  has 
much  to  say  about  his  experience 
in  that  city,  and  praises  the  Cali- 
fornia delegation  for  the  breaking 
down  of  the  things  that  might 
have  been  unpleasant,  such  as 
marching  in  the  parade  and  other 
things  that  needed  correction.  He 
enjoyed  a  few  days  stay  after 
adjournment  with  friends  and  rel- 
atives. 

Members  of  Col.  Young  Post 
represented  the  Post  at  a  number 
of  affairs  during  the  Armistice 
Day  celebrations  Sunday.  Com- 
mander Leo  C.  Higgs  led  his  Post 
to  Taylor  Memorial  Church,  where  !  angler, 
an  open  house  was  held  for  the  I  Uespite 
veterans,  from  4  to  6  P.  M.  A 
fine  program  and  tea  was  en- 
joyed. 

They  know  how. 

Sunday  night  they  went  to  th« 
15th  Street  Church  where  they 
enjoyed  a  nice  program.  Thanks 
to  comrade  Newman  for  pinch 
hitting,  there  should  be  more  like 
him. 

Past  Commander  Hicks,  who 
was  one  of  the  Armistice  Day 
committee  of  the  city  of  Oakland, 
and  Mrs.  Maples,  president  of  the 
Auxiliary,  attended  a  luncheon  at 
Hotel  Oakland  where  Sir  Charles 
Kingford  Smith  was  honored,  and 
given  a  silver  service. 

There  was  a  large  delegation 
on  hand  for  the  pageant  Monday 
night  at  the  city  auditorium.  The 
Post  and  Auxiliary  held  box  seats 
Mrs.  Hicks  and  Mother  Mrs 
Freeman,  held  box  seats  assigned 
to   committeeman   Hicks. 

Col.  Young  Post  members  want 
to  know  who  it  was  that  said 
that  the  comrades  and  friends 
wouldn't  rally  to  tHeir  smoker. 
Hope  you  had  a  good  time  and 
sorry  you  left  too  soon.  There 
was  more  misunderstanding.  Make 
up   for   it    next   time. 

Comrade  Youle's  boys  were  hot 
don't   you    think? 

I  Comrade  Treece,  former  adju- 
'  tant  of  the  Post  who  Is  the  chair- 
man of  uniform  of  the  10th  dis- 
trict, is  wondering  how  he  would 
look  In  an  official  uniform.  Did 
you  see  those  large  fellows  Mon- 
day,  look    nice   don't   you   think? 

Did  you  hear  any  of  the  speak- 
ers from  the  Post  on  the  school 
program  during  educational  week? 
If    not,   you    missed    a   treat.    Com 


a  surprise.  Striped  bass,  potato 
salad  and  vino  were  served,  and 
did  the  gang  enjoy  it!  Mr.  Pers- 
ley caught  the   bass. 

That  bug  is  still  busy.  Noah 
Johnson  is  the  latest  victim.  He 
went  fishing  the  first  time  last 
Sunday,  caught  five,  weighing 
from  3  to  7  pounds,  and  now  he 
is  looking  the  show  windows  over 
for    tackle. 

Bay  Point,  Pittsburgh,  and  An- 
tioch  are  the  choice  spots  at  this 
time. 

The  1934  hunting  and  fishing 
seasons  so  far  have  been  noted 
for  the  success  of  the   hunter  and 


1  LIKE  THAT  STORY  about  Gibson,  the  Georgia 
Tech  end,  being  benched  during  the  Teth-Mithigen  game 
in  order  to  even  the  handicap  made  by  the  benching  of 
Willis  Ward.  There  was  another  story  about  a  Los  Angeles 
woman  who,  upon  catching  a  swordfish  off  Catalina  Is- 
land, took  the  catch  to  a  taxidermist  and  had  it  mounted 
and  dyed  pink  to  match  the  drajjcs.  There  is  a  [jarallel 
moral  in  them  somewhere.  ...  I'd  work  it  out,  but  I'm 
rather  confused  by  a  letter  I  just  received  from  Mrs. 
AUeycat. 

I  must  confess  that  I  had  rather  given  up  ho|)e  of 
ever  hearing  from  this  peculiar  beast  again.  Her  precipi- 
tous exit  on  the  tail,  or  Uils  of  her  young,  had  something 
about  it  of  the  character  of  a  Greek  tragedy.  I  had  imag- 
ined her  sitting  darkly  in  some  dark  comer,  sad  beyond 
the  grief  of  tears,  waiting  for  the  eternal  |)cace  of  death. 

But  instead  of  awaiting  death's  chaste  kiss,  Mrs. 
AUeycat,  according  to  her  letter,  decided  to  sublimate 
her  grief.  ...  so  she  went  to  college.  .  .  "I  am  now  the 
complete  collegian.  I  have  a  Freshman's  hat  and  a  copy 
of  Mencken's  'Prejudices'."  Already,  she  says,  she  is  able 
to  sneer  at  Big  Business.  When  she  learns  to  sneer  at  the 
government  too,  she's  going  to  try  to  make  the  "Literary 
Society". 

"The  Ufe  here  is  marvelous.  ...  all  that  anyone  does 
is  sit  all  day  in  the  "Come  Inn",  drinking  Chocolate  Malted 
Milks  and  talking  about  Schopenhauer.  It's  very  energi- 
zing. 

She  didn't  know  much  about  election  returns,  except 
that  she  seemed  glad  that  "Mr.  Roosevelt  wasn't  defeated" 
.  .  .  because  her  economics  professor  told  her  that  the 
Brain  Trust  idea  was  "identical  in  spirit  with  the  pattoni 
of  government  in  Plato's  Republic".  She  said  she  tried  to 
find  the  Republic  of  Plato  on  a  map.  .  .  but  all  she  could 
find  was  a  river.  .  .  .  the  professor,  however,  "has  the 
cutest  little  mustache  you  ever  saw!" 

Up  to  this  point  I  didn't  know  just  what  to  think. 
In  fact  ,  I  was  still  uncertain  that  she  was  even  in  a  col- 
lege. But  her  letter  strayed  over  into  the  field  of  football, 
and  at  once  she  became  more  lucid: 

I  "The  Santa  Clara-St.  Mary's  scramble  has  all  the 
'I  told  you  so'  boys  losing  sleep.  From  where  I  am,  (which 
will  be  row  FF  next  Sunday)  it  looks  like  the  battle  of 
the  year.  What  a  set  up!  Clipper  Smith,  the  keenest  strat- 
egist in  football,  bucking  against  "Sheer  Power"  Madigan. 
Who'll  win?  How  can  one  tell?  Can  Smith  with  his  double 
deceiver  (which  is  nothing  more  than  a  wide  wing-back 
sucking  out  the  end)  pry  a  hole  through  the  Irish  wall? 
And  on  the  other  hand,  whatinell  is  Smith  going  to  offer 
against  a  guy  like  Nichehni?  When  there  ain't  no  hole  for 
that  bull  gorilla  to  go  through  he  just  turns  on  the  heat 
and  tromples  all  over  the  defense.  I'm  having  a  fever  over 
hoiv  to  place  my  bets. " 

So  I  knew  Mrs.  AUeycat  was  really  in  College;  in 
spirit  as  well  as  in  body.  .  There  will  b«  more  letters 
later.  .  .  I'm  afraid.

The  deer  kill  this  year  by  li- 
censed hunters  Is  greater  than  it 
has  been  for  some  five  seasons, 
excepting  1931  the  banner  year 
since  1927.  Present  figures,  based 
on  deer  tags  returned  to  the  Com- 
mission Indicate  that  when  a  fi- 
nal check  is  made  that  more 
than  20,000  bucks  were  shot  this 
year.  Last  year  the  total  waa  a 
little    over    17,600. 

Striped  bass  fishing  has  been 
belter  this  year  than  for  several 
years  past.  The  sport  has  called 
out  more  men  and  women  than 
have  been  seen  on  the  bay,  rivers 
and  sloughs  for  a  long,  long  time. 
The  fish  have  been  running  plen- 
tifully in  nearly  all  sections  of 
Inland  waters,  and  they  have  run 
to  large  sizea.  The  almost  un- 
precedented appearance  of  this 
great  sport  fish  since  early  In  the 
year  has  caused  a  great  increase

AND  SO  I  READ  the  magazine  "Story"  which  is  de- 
voted solely  to  the  short  story,  and  edited  by  Whit  Bur- 
nett and  Martha  Foley.  I  did  not  seek  the  magazine.  It  was 
brought  in,  vaguely,  by  a  girl,  who  vaguely  left  it  saying 
she   "didn't   read   anyway"   except  when   she   was   sick    in 
[bed.  The  issue   (November)   contained  a  story  by  William 
Saroyan,   the  latest  literary  "discovery".   He   is  Armenian 
hke  Michael  Arlcn  and  a  San  F'ranciscan  like  Frank  Nor- 
!  ris,  according  to  some  of  the  blurbs  I  have  read  concerning 
,  him.    This   would   seem    to    place    him    in    a    high    literary 
'  classification   without   the   necessity   of   production   at   all. 
It  is  a  wonder  the  blurb  writers  didn't  add  that  he  wrote 
I  in  English — like  Shakespeare.  That  would  have  cin(;hed  it. 
WTicn  I  read  his  "resurrection  of  a  Life",  I  added  the 
name   of   another   famous   writer   to   the    comparison.    He 
seems  to  me  to  closely  approach   Sherwood  Anderson — in 
cmde  power,  in  the  way  he  gives  the  reader  a  character's 
essential  hfe,  and,  most  nearly,  in  the  thing  he  is  trying 
to  do.  ...  he  succeeds  and  he  fails  just  as  Anderson  did. 
But    he    cannot    remotely    approach    Anderson's    ecstactic 
descriptions.    .    .    that    is   an    achievement    in    writing    few 
can  touch. 

I  suppose  I  should  aj)ologizc  for  such  an  esoteric 
criticism.  A  better  way  of  knowing  the  man  is  possible 
to  all.  Read  his  book.  "The  Man  on  the  Flying  Trapeze".

bout  against  the  champion  or  a  contender.  You  know,  with 
his  two  clean  cut  wins  over  Rosenbloom.  John  Henry's  rep 
preceded  him  to  Eastern  shores  and  it  would  have  been  an 
easy  matter  to  build  him  into  a  big  attraction  for  a  main 
event.  As  to  the  loss,  I  have  only  this  to  say,  "John  Henry 
either  found  it  impossible  to  become  acclimated  in  such  a 
short  Ume,  or  he  was  stage  frightened  on  his  first  big 
Eastern  bout."  Regardless,  lets  all  pull  for  him  to  come 
out  on  top  next  time  he  steps  in  the  ring.

Look    at    this    list    above.    And    think 
what  it  means. 

All  those  men,  from  Congressman 
downward  were  elected  by  ballot  to  serve 
ts  members  of  the  legislative  bodies  of 
vmrjouB  civic  groups.  They  did  not  come 
into  a  government  job  through  the  side 
door  of  appointment,  with  its  very  obvious 
mutual  back  scratching  as  a  necessary 
price.  They  were  elected  by  the  people  to 
represent  them.  And  they  have  the  power 
aad  the  position  to  do  just  that.  The  me- 
chanics of  a  representative  government 
aro  such  that  a  shrewd  race  legislator 
'Gsn  both  act  as  a  guardian  for  all  the  ad- 
vance we  have  already  made  as  a  race  in 
kis  district,  and  break  ground  for  our 
ftirther  progress.  There  is  no  bettej  way 
of  positively  guaranteeing  these  things

Too,  their  presence  is  a  constant  re- 
nlnder  to  the  other  members  of  the  as- 
■nmbiy  that  there  is  an  alert  group  of 
fVlers  behind  the  elected  men  of  sufficient 
nanber  to  make  their  patronage  well 
worth  consideration. 

.To  Mr.  Mitchell,  our  new-hatched  con- 
greasmsn  we  look  with  the  greatest  hope. 
He  is  our  very  first  missionary  among  the 
hstlMrians  on  the  Dixie  side  of  the  house. 
Be  has  an  unprecedented  opportunity  for 
ive  education  in  ethics.  And  he  can 
fiplsmait  his  teaching  with  the  educat- 
or's right  arm,  a  punitive  power.  We  wish

The  race  has  made  great  fomv-ard 
vMdes  in  the  last  few  years  in  the  matter 
ff  iHring  their  ballot  intelligently.  Among 
^km  elected  were  an  increasing  number  of 
jfmiag  men:  lawyers,  doctors,  educators — 
with  a  background  which  will  enable 
to  fin  their  offices  brilliantly.  A  far

WBAT  NOW? 

Ms  latest  book,  "Negro  Americans, 

rT  Ifr.  James  Weldon  Johnson, 

few  men  of  our  race  who  com- 

Bilnd  with  a  brilliant  pen, 

i-Stt  Interpretation  of  the   Negro 

ttst  is  well  worth  the  attention 

ndnd.  The  important  sum- 


mary below  is  of  |)articular  interest. 
Said  Mr.  Jchnson: 

"If  Negro  Amtricans  could  do  what 
re:isonabIy  appears  to  be  impossible,  and 
as  a  separate  unit  achieve  self-sufficiency 
built  upon  group  economic  independence, 
docs  anyone  suppose  that  that  would  abol- 
ish prejudice  against  them  and  allay 
opposition,  or  that  the  struggle  to  main- 
tain their  self-sufficiency  would  be  in  any 
de;ji-ce  less  bitter  than  the  present  strug- 
gle to  become  an  integral  part  of  the  na- 
tion? Taking  into  account  human  nature 
as  it  is,  would  not  the  achievement  be 
more  likely  to  arouse  envy  and  bring  on 
even  more  violent  hatreds  and  persecu- 
tions? 

"Certainly,  the  isolationists  are  stating 
a  truth  when  they  contend  that  we  should 
not,  ostrich-like,  hide  our  heads  in  the 
sand,  making  believe  that  prejudice  is 
non-existent;  but  in  so  doing  they  are 
apostles  of  the  obvious.  Calling  upon  the 
race  to  realize  that  prejudice  is  an  actual- 
ity is  a  needless  effort;  it  is  placing  em- 
phasis on  what  has  never  been  questioned. 
The  danger  for  us  does  not  lie  in  a  possi- 
ble failure  to  acknowledge  prejudice  as  a 
reality,  but  in  acknowledging  it  too  fully. 
We  cannot  ignore  the  fact  that  we  are 
segregated,  no  matter  how  much  we  might 
wish  to  do  so;  and  the  smallest  amount 
of  common  sense  forces  us  to  extract  as 
much  good  from  the  situation  as  there  is 
in  it.  Any  degree  of  sagacity  forces  us  at 
the  same  time  to  use  all  our  powers  to 
abolish  imposed  segregation;  for  it  is  an 
evil  per  se  and  the  negation  of  equality 
either  of  opportunity  or  of  awards.  We 
sl^ould  by  all  means  make  our  schools  and 
institutions  as  excellent  as  we  can  possibly 
make  them — and  by  that  very  act  we  re- 
duce the  certainty  that  they  will  forever 
remain  schools  and  institutions  "for  Ne- 
groes only."  We  should  make  our  business 
enterprises  and  other  strictly  group  under- 
takings as  successful  as  we  can  possibly 
make  them.  We  should  gather  all  the 
strength  and  experience  we  can  from  im- 
posed segregation.  But  any  good  we  are 
able  to  derive  from  the  system  we  should 
consider  as  a  means,  not  an  end.  The 
strength  and  experience  we  gain  from  it 
should  be  applied  to  the  objective  of  en- 
tering into,  not  staying  out  of  the  body 
politic. 

"Clear  thinking  shows,  too,  that,  as 
bad  as  conditions  are,  they  are  not  as  bad 
as  they  are  declared  to  be  by  discouraged 
and  pessimistic  isolationists.  To  say  that . 
in  the  past  two  generations  or  more  Negro 
Americans  have  not  advanced  a  single 
step  toward  a  fuller  share  in  the  common- 
wealth becomes,  in  the  light  of  easily  as- 
certainable facts,  an  absurdity.  Only  the 
shortest  view  of  the  situation  gives  color 
of  truth  to  such  a  statement;  any  reason- 
ably long  view  proves  it  to  be  utterly 
false." 

HISTORY  CONSCIOUS 
That  Negroes  are  gcneraly  becoming 
more  conscious  daily  of  the  important 
position  they  have  made  for  themselves 
in  the  civilization  of  the  world  and  its 
march  of  progress  is  clearly  evidenced  by 
a  chain  of  events.  Among  them  is  the 
annual  observance  this  week,  of  Negro 
Achievement  Week  by  the  Omega  Psi  Phi 
fraternity,  national  body  composed  of  col- 
lege trained  men,  during  which  time  facts 
as  concern  the  accomplishments  of  numer- 
ous outstanding  men  and  women  are  made 
public. 

Speakers  from  the  several  chapters 
of  the  organization  located  in  different 
sections  of  the  country  address  church 
congregations,  school  assemblies  and 
other  civic  bodies,  and  sponsor  an  essay 
writing    contest    open    to    students. 

At  Houston  Texas  this  week  the  ann- 
ual convention  of  the  Nationsil  Association 
for  the  study  of  Negro  Life  and  History 
is  being  held,  and  men  and  women  from 
all  parts  of  the  United  States  have  gath- 
ered there  to  discuss  and  contribute  add- 
itional facts  relative  to  the  history  of 
the  world  as  made  by  Negroes.  Because 
of  the  work  of  this  association  and  the 
fine  contribution  of  its  foimder.  Carter 
Woodson,  most  public  school  systems  now 
include  as  a  part  of  their  regular  courses, 
one  atmut  Negro  History,  and  since  the  i 
Negro  has  no  history  except  that  which  ' 
is  so  closely  interwoven  with  the  history 
of  all  other  nations  and  races  as  to  leave 
no  line  of  demarcation,  students  taking 
the  course  are  forced  to  learn  of  the  Ne- 
gro. 

As  slowly  aa  it  may  seem  to  some  of 
us  to  arrive,  the  day  of  recognition  for 
the  Negro  as  a  man  of  definite  contribu- 
tion to  the  world's  growth  and  develop- 
ment is  not  fur  distant,  and  those  persons 
who  have  pioneered,  accepted  the  rebuffs 
of  tfieir  own  as  well  as  other  races  and 
have  generally  suffcrod  in  their  attempt 
to  win  for  the  race  its  rightful  place  in 
the  pages  of  ull  books  concerning  world's 
history,  can  at  last  begin  to  sec  the  frui- 
tion of  their  labor. — Louisiana  Weekly. 


RENU  HAS  THE  ONLY  :0N  THE  VET. 
RACE  WEATHER  MAN  FIRING  LINE 


By     Langaton     Hughea 

RENO,  Ncv.,  -Oscar  H.  Ham 
mouds,  observer  of  the  United 
States  VVcnther  Bureau  at  Reno, 
is  the  only  Negro,  no  far  as 
known,  employed  in  such  a  ca- 
pacity in  America.  Mr.  Hammonds 
furmerly  \^3S  a  school  teacher, 
entered  the  service  in  1007,  tak- 
ing the  Civil  Service  examination 
in  Indianapolis,  Indiana,  his  home 
state. 

Within  two  weeks  after  receiv- 
ing notice  that  he  had  passed 
the  examination,  he  was  appoint- 
ed to  the  Reno  station.  The  fol- 
lowing year  he  was  transfered 
to  San  Francisco,  and  during  bis 
time  there,  he  was  for  awhile  in 
sole  charge  of  the  Weather  Bu- 
reau station  on  the  Southeast 
Farrallon  Islands,  thirty  miles  off 
the  Golden  Gate,  where  weather 
conditions  are  recorded  and  boat 
passings   noted. 

In  1810,  Mr.  Hammonds  return- 
ed to  Reno  where  he  has 
been  stationed  since  that  time. 
At  present,  as  Second  Assistant 
Observer,  be  works  entirely  in 
the  main  Reno  office  and  obser- 
vatory located  on  the  top  floor 
and  roof  of  the  new  Post  Office 
Building.  For  five  years,  however, 
he  made  a  monlly  trip  to  Donner 
Summit  on  the  top  of  the  Sierra 
Nevada  range  to  engage  in  snow 
studies,  recording  the  weight,  the 
depth,  and  density  of  the  snow 
generally  found  on  the  high  moun- 
uins  the  year  around.  An  account 
of  these  observations  may  be 
found  in  the  September  issue, 
1932,  of  the  Monthly  Weather 
Review,     issued     at    Washington. 

When    I    went    to    interview    Mr. 
Hammonds    at    hiii    oifice,    I    found 
a   plump,   cordial   little   man   about 
fifty.    For    more    than    an    hour    I 
was     shown     the     various     instru- 
ments,   maps,    and    charts    used    in 
the    recording    and    forecasting    of 
weather    reports.    On    the     center 
desk     of     Mr.     Hammond's     office 
thereis    a    large    automatic    triple 
register    that    records    on    a    twen- 
ty-four   hour    circular     chart     the 
hours     of    sunshine,    the     raiiifall, 
the    wind    velocity    and    direction. 
On      the      roof     and      observation 
tower     there     were     other     instru- 
ments   to    record    rain    and    snow- 
fall,   atmospheric    pressure,    humi- 
dity, temperature,  and  every  other 
phase    of    the    weather's    activities. 
j     There    arc    in    the    office    books 
I  of     complicated     thermographs  and 
I  barographs,    and    a    large    weather 
I  map  of   the   United  States,   compil- 
I  cd  and  diagramed   daily  from   tel> 
I  ctype     reports    received     from     all 
over   the    country.   Mr.    Hammonds 
m.ikes      two      observations      daily, 
keeping    account    of    humidity,    vi- 
sibility,   and    the    highest    and  low- 
est   temperatures,    among    other  re- 
cordings,    which     are     then     wired 
to     the     central     weather    stations 
in      the      East.      Mr.     Hammond's 
work    alKo    consists    of    compiling 
data    for   the    monthly    and    yearly 
weather    reports    from    Reno    and

It  was  quite  a  surprise  to  learn 
that  our  old  friend  Herb  Clarke 
belongs  to  the  famous  Nut  Fam- 
ily. While  listening  to  the  broad- 
cast of  the  water  polo  game  be- 
tween St.  Mary's  and  Santa  Clara 
at  Kezar  Stadium  last  Sunday, 
Herb  showed  up  at  the  Ferry 
building  looking  as  though  he  had 
swum    the    bay.    He    was    all    wot 


The  Post  was  honored  by  a  visit 
from  Senior  Vice  Commander  Wil-

he  is  known  to  mo.t  of  us,  gave  I  both  inside  and  outside.  And  to 
us  some  very  timely  remarks,  and  I  make  bad  matters  worse  he  was

Scout  leader!)  recognlic  the  en- 
thusiasm of  a  boy  for  games. 
Games  therefore  occupy  an  im- 
portant place  in  Scouting  Coupled 
with  his  love  for  doing  thing.'), 
game,  teach  hi»n  much  of  what 
he  learns.  They  even  help  him  to 
pass  his  test  requirements  In 
fact.  Scouting  itself  appears  lo 
him  unconsciously  as  a  great 
game  of  unlimited  variety  and  in- 
terest. 

They  understand  his  instinctive 
yearning  for  all  oulaoors.  Directly 
or  indirectly  that  vast  domain  out 
beyond  the  pavement  ends  occu- 
pii'S  an  even  nioic  i.nportant 
place  in  Scouting  than  games.  Out 
there  on  his  hikes  and  in  his 
camps  he  learns  woodcraft,  camp- 
cruft,  and  nature  study.  He  leurns 
how  to  use  a  knife  and  p.xe  pro- 
perly. With  lhc»e  tool.i  iic  can 
build  himself  a  shelter  and  make 
a    bed    a.    comfortable    .i.t    any    ut 


ing  it.  Ignorance  concerning  an 
organization  of  such  vital  im- 
portance to  the  community  ought 
not  to  be  condoned: — wherefore 
this    article. 

Let  me  begin  by  telling  what 
the  Scout  Movement  is  not,  and 
makes    no   claims    to    being. 

It  is  not  just  a  fraternal  organ- 
ization whcrcunto  the  fond  par- 
ents may  deliver  their  boy,  the 
while  they  go  about  their  intend- 
ed occupations.  It  has  no  mili- 
taristic aims.  The  uniform  is  sim- 
ply a  means  of  notifying  the 
world  at  large  that  the  wearer  is 
a  Boy  Scout.  What  drills  there 
are  is  only  meant  to  teach  the 
boy  some  measure  of  discipline, 
and  the  harmony  necessary  in 
dealing  with  groups  ot  such  rug- 
ged individualists  aa  boys  arc.  It 
is  non-sectarian,  dedicated  never- 
theless to  the  belief  that  religion 
is     one     of     the     greatest     factors

was  nut  a  speaker,  proceeded  to 
give  us  one  of  the  best  speeches 
that  the  Post  has  ever  heard. 
Murry  said  so  many  things  that 
this    writer    would    like    to    relate 


too  happy  lad  passed  by.  (He  has 
too  much  and  I  haven't  got

it  will  be  soon.  Comrade  Gordon

teresting, and  that  it  cannot  be- 
come monotonous  as  no  two  days 
have  ever  been  known  to  be  ex-

When   Michigan    University   tangleti   with    Ncthwertem 

.;.   last   Saturday   and    Willis   Ward    trotted   off   the   field 

ifter  scoring   all    his   team'.i    jwinta    by    kicking   two    field 

goals,    "Finis"    was   written    to    the   career   of   one   of   the 

lacts  greatest  football   stars.   Although   his  last  year  at 

vlirhigan,  it  has   been   his  most  .stormy  .stason.  and   what 

vill  sofjn  be  his  ahna  mater  Ehowed  that  they  appreciated 

lis  great  work  on  the  gridiron  and  truck  but  little,  by  re- 

tntly    barring    him    from    a    game    against    a    "cracker" 

-•leven.  If  he  cares  to.  Ward  will  sUll  be  able  to  cavort  on 

he  track,  as  he  docs  not  graduate  until  at  the  ned  of  the 

ipring  semester.  Incidentally.  \Lchigan  lost  to  Northwe»-

OZE  SIMMONS  .MAY  CHANGE  SCHOOLS 

While  on  the  Big  Ten  subject,  I  guess  I  might  as 
veil  pass  on  the  report  which  I  just  received  regarding 
the  pigskin  career  of  Oze  Simmons,  great  halfback  of 
I  Iowa  U.  The  dof)e  says  that  Simmons  will  probably  change 
lis  Iowa  colors  fcr  those  of  Northwestern  in  19.35.  Lack 
<f  cooptnition  on  the  part  of  the  coaches  and  team-mates 
s  cause  of  the  change,  says  the  report.  Incidentally,  North- 
A-estem  is  the  team  which  Iowa  defeated  for  their  only 
liig  Ten  victory  and  the  game  in  which  Simmons  ran  wUd 
Lo    garner    nation-wide    publicity.

PETFJJ   JACKSON    WIN    H.VS   AFTERMA-ni 

Young  Peter  Jackson  was  pven  the  decision  over  Young 
Sammy  P'uller  at  Madison  Square  Garden  a  few  Fridays 
ago,  but  according  to  press  reports,  the  decision  was  so 
rank  that  the  afU-rmath  may  result  in  having  the  scoring 
sj-stcm  in  i\ew  York  changed  entirely.  Checking  on  half 
[a  dozen  ringside  scribes,  it  seems  that  Fuller  won  "going 
away" — dropping  our  Coast  champion  in  the  resin  three 
times  and  trouncing  him  in  general.  Nevertheless,  tlie 
judges  were  divided  as  to  the  winner,  leaving  the  decision 
to  the  referee,  who  raised  Jackson's  hand.  Young  Peter 
was  a  3  to  1  favorite  to  whip  the  aged  Fuller,  and  higher- 
ups  claim  so  much  money  was  bet  on  theCalifomia  boxw 
that  he  couldn't  lose.  He  didn't,  but  the  judge  who  voted 
for  him,  Harold  Barnes,  and  the  referee,  Danny  Rid(^ 
have  been  indefinitely  suspended  by  the  New  York  Boxing 
Commi-ssion  and  Madison  Square  Garden  heads  cut  then 
off  their  list.  Oh  well,  for  one  of  the  few  times,  a  Negro 
athlete  got  a  break.

SOCIAUSM  AND  CIVIL  8KRVICE 

It  would  seem  from  this  point  in  time 
lliat  the  immediate  future  of  the  Ameri- 
Ciiii  Nffeio  contiiins  great  promise  of  bet- 
ter tliuigu  when  considered  irom  the 
view|x)int  of  trends  in  government  as  af- 
f«x;ting  our  economic  opportunities. 

This  i)ropliecy  is  based  on  the  assump- 
tioii  that  President  Roosevelt  is  leaning 
toward  SociaHsm.  We  cannot  be  certain. 
In  such  matters  the  President  has  been 
consistently  enigmatic  concerning  his  real 
oxunions.  Most  of  his  work  has  aimed,  this 
f;ir,  toward  the  correction  of  existing  er- 
rors; and  nearly  all  of  the  legislation 
which  is  sponsored  by  the  White  House 
has  been  either  labeled  or  easily  identified 
as  emergency.  This  impermanent  labor  has 
made  the  executive  mind,  its  philosophy 
and  economic  opinions  something  of  a 
mystery.  However,  an  examination  of  the 
emergency  legislation  over  the  years 
would  indicate  that  Mr.  Roosevelt  is  quite 
definitely  leaning  left — either  that,  or  else 
he  has  found  a  startling  identity  in  the 
lirescription  for  curing  our  economic  ills. 
Whatever  the  reason  a  definite  trend  to- 
ward socialism  is  evident.  And  this,  to  the 
Negro,  should  be  balm  in  Gilead. 

Today,  more  Negroes  find  economic 
security  in  Municipal,  State  and  Federal 
payrolls  than  in  any  private  class  of  in- 
dustry. Only  under  civil  service  is  the  Ne- 
gr6  assured  of  an  opportunity  to  advance 
somewhere  within  the  limits  of  his  ability. 

Socialism,  or  public  ownership  of  pro- 
duction, would  automatically  bring  civil 
service  into  general  use.  This  would,  in 
turn,  make  it  no  longer  necessary  for  our 
PhJD.'s,  Lawyers  and  skilled  scientists  to 
rely  on  the  Pullman  Company  for  their 
livelihood.  They  would,  under  such  a  sys- 
tem, find  the  opportunity  to  advance  in 
their  chosen  profession  rather  than  learn 
the  bitterness  they  so  frequently  "know  to- 
day of  finding  no  market  for  their  skilled 
hands  because  of  the  color  of  their  skin.

OUB  OWN  FOOTBALL  GAME 

Anyone    who    has    seen    the    Stanford 
football  team  in  action  may  have  marveled 
at  the  beautiful  play  of  its  great  perform- 
ing  backs:    Grayson,    Hamilton    and    the 
rest.  Among  the  thousands  of  spectators 
who  have  seen  the  team  in  action  this  year 
there  were  probably  only  a  very  few  ex- 
perts who  reabzed  that  they  were  watch- 
ing one  of  the  most  efficient  demonstra- 
tions of  teamwork  to  show  in  any  stad- 
ium. The  casual  observer  will  tell  you  that 
Gni3wni  and  the  others  are  "great."  The 
expert  will  tell  you  that  they  are  being 
supported    by    such    excellent    blocking — 
that  the  guards  and  blocking  backs  are  so 
efficient  in  cooperatively  sweeping  the  op- 
position out  of  the  runners  way  that  often 
aO  that  is  required  of  the  man  with  the 
ball  it  to  keep  his  feet  and   not  fumble. 
They   will    tell    you    that    Stanford    is    so 
nearly  a  perfect  "TEAM"  that,  against  in- 
ferior opponents,  watching  them  function 
<  iteoomes  almost  monotonous. 
I        EJvery  touchdown   that  Grayson   made 
this  season  was  made  by  the  whole  team. 
iTIwy  (the  other  ten  men)  were  willing  to 
•  Mtbmerge  themselves  in  order  to  achieve 
I. a,  common  goal.  They  were  willing  to  do 
iJti^  most  bruising  kind  of   labor  for  an 
im^ire  season  in  order  to  let  another  man 
Tl^Sompliah  their  mutual  purpose. 
|.»n.{B  that  is   a   great    lesson   the   Negro 

^i.Ms  hss  come  a  long  way  from  the  to- 

,4^psadeace  of  slavery  days.   He  has 

giraduaUy,  to  stand  on  his  own 

H»  has  to  condense   into  three  or 

pMiprations  the  acquired  learning  of 

of  white  independence  in  Amer- 

hs  has  been  able  to  aksorb  so 


much  as  ho  hab  is  not  rcniaikublc.  How- 
ever, that  he  should  be  expected  to 
achieve  psychological  acclimation  with 
Uiut  of  the  white  man  is  unfair.  His  edu- 
cation is  going  on  every  day.  Thus  far  we 
have  reached  a  point  where  we  are  so 
very  near  them  in  our  habits  of  life  that 
the "  importance  of  our  failures  is  being 
overeniphaaired.  We  have  learned  much. 
Ultimately,  when  we  achieve  our  diploma, 
which  will  probably  be  when  we  have  gone 
so  far  in  that  direction  that  we  will  find 
it  necessary,  with  our  anglican  brothers  to 
practice  reveiuion  in  our  desires  and  seek 
uguin  for  the  mystic  sway  of  the  jungle 
torn  tom,  we  should  be  content.  Of  course 
we  won't  be,  for  they  are  not. 

But  in  that  march  toward  our  ultimate 
goal  of  a  car  in  every  garage,  a  relative  in 
every  psychiatric  institution,  and  complete 
dissatisfaction  with  life,  we  shall  have  to 
learn  next  in  our  ordered  progress  the  fine 
art  of  cooperation.  In  that  is  one  of  the 
highest  expressions  of  civilization.  That 
understanding  which  enables  the  man  who 
opens  the  door  for  the  president  of  a  bank 
to  realize  that  he  is  really  a  part -of  the 
executive  department  since  he  is  clearing 
the  way  for  the  other  and  thereby  enabl- 
ing him  to  function  more  fully  in  his  ex- 
ecutive capacity.  Or  to  get  back  to  our 
opening  simile,  that  enables  the  guard 
who  cliijs  out  a  defensive  fullback  to  real- 
ize that  he,  as  much  as  the  man  with  the 
ball,  made  the  touchdown. 

Thus  far  the  Negro  has  learned  to  or- 
ganize quite  nicely.  In  fact  he  seems  to 
have  loained  this  lesson  too  well.  He  has 
too  niiniy  organizations  for  his  own  good. 
There  are  too  many  churches.  Too  many 
clubs.  Too  many  political  organizations. 
At  present  we  are  too  concerned  with 
hairline  differences.  It  is  poor  logic  that 
finds  the  best  method  for  50  people  to 
achieve  a  common  goal  is  for  them  to 
form  five  clubs  of  ten  members  each  be- 
cause there  arc  five  different  methods 
possible  in  the  achievement  of  that  goal. 
One  club  can  achieve  more.  Better  co- 
operation would  enable  all  the  social  or- 
ganizations, functioning  loosely  together 
to  come  in  to  the  many  benefits  that 
accrue  to  larger  organizfitions.  The  Athens 
Club  and  the  Olympic  Club  are  merely 
several  groups  with  similar  aims  bene- 
fitting from  cooperation.  Their  members 
realize  that  although  the  operation  of  the 
clubs  may  not  be  exactly  as  they  wish, 
the  benefits  offset  the  ills.  They  have 
learned  that  half  of  a  large  loaf  may  be 
greater  than  the  whole  of  a  small  one. 

The  Negro  has  not  yet  learned  this. 
In  our  churches,  too  many  sects  dissi- 
pate the  power  that  would  lie  in  a  larger 
membership  in  a  smaller  number  of 
church  bodies.  And  when  we  hurry  to 
join  fifteen  different  political  clubs,  each 
of  which  has  about  twenty  members,  we 
should  not  be  astonished  that  we  receive 
less  administrative  consideration  than 
does    a    club   of    less   exact    purpose    and 

more  members.

OUR   SOUTHERN   FRIENDS 

THE  ACTION  OF  Doctor  Hamilton 
Holt,  president  of  Rollins  College,  Winter 
Park,  Florida,  in  forwarding  to  President 
Roosevelt  a  vigorous  protest  against  the 
Neal  lynching,  signed  by  teachers  and 
students  of  that  institution,  should  be  a 
reminder  to  us  of  an  important  truth. 
We  should  always  remember  to  avoid  gen- 
eralities when  we  talk  of  the  South. 

It  is  an  easy  thing  to  lump  together 
every  one  who  lives  South  of  the  Mason 
and  Dixon  hne  and  classify  them  as  of 
the  type  which  found  expression  in  the 
actions  of  the  morons  and  savages  who 
perpetrated  the  crime  against  Neal.  But 
it  is  an  entirely  unfair  attitude. 

When  the  Negro  achieves  his  rights 
in  the  South,  it  will  be  not  through  his 
own  efforts  alone.  Sharply  to  demarcate 
between  the  two  groups  and  call  all  those 
not  ourselves  our  enemies  is  to  establish 
a  false  premise  which  may  lead  us  into 
dangerous  experiments  in  seeking  our 
emancipation. 

Too,  when  we  do  that  we  should  re- 
member that  it  is  precisely  the  condition 
of  mind  that  we  so  greatly  abhor  when 
we  find  it  in  the  white  man.  He  is  wrong 
in  considering  all  Negroes  as  one.  We 
are  wrong  in  considering  all  Southerners 

so.

TlfANKST.IVINO    AOAIN 

THANKSCIVINO  is  with  us  again. 
Some  will  have  turkeys  and  some  won't; 
and  from  where  we  stand,  it  appears  that 
more  won't  than  will.  All  of  which  goes 
to  say  that  the  dreariest  Winter  of  the 
depression  is  before  us,  the  opinions  of 
industrialists  and  government  attaches  to 
the  contrary  notwithstanding. 

Accordingly,  with  or  without  the  tur-

significance.  It  is  a  day  for  girding  up 
our  loins,  taking  a  -<ieop  breath,  and 
plunging  without  trepidation  into  the

policies  and  religion  don't  mix! 
We  are  thinking  of  Ihc  bitter 
fight  in  Kiin.sa.s  bclween  the  Right 
Kiv.  John  A  Gregg.  Bishop  of 
hi!  Fifth  E|)isiO|>.»l  Di.strict.  A. 
ME.  Church  and  the  former  Bis-, 
hop  W.  T.  Vernon.  The  latter, 
former  Registrar  of  the  Treasu- 
ry under  the  liile  President  The- 
odore Roosevelt,  and  later  a  Bis- 
hop of  the  A  ME.  Conference, 
ha.s  alw.'iys  hurt  a  ^renter  leaning 
toward  politics  which  the  reli- 
gious   cloak    failed    to    conceal. 

The  feud  Kturted  over  the  con- 
trol of  the  Western  University 
ut  Quinclera,  Kan-sas.  According 
to  the  news  the  school  has  had 
the  dual  support  of  the  state 
and  church.  The  church  financed 
the  cultural  courses  and  the  gov- 
ernment supported  the  vocation- 
al and  industrial  branches.  It  is 
the  contention  of  Bishop  Gregg 
that  Vernon  on  th«  one  hand 
and  Governor  L,andon  on  the 
other,  have  conspired  to  freeze 
Ihe  church  out  altogether.  For- 
mer Bishop  Vernon  has  insinuat- 
ed himself  in  the  political  life  of 
the  slate  and  built  up  quite  a 
following.  It  appears  that  the 
idea  is  to  place  Vernon  at  the 
head  of  the  school,  and  that  Gov- 
ernor Landon  contemplates  erect- 
ing a  school  of  "higher  learning" 
for  Negroes  only.  Bishop  Gregg 
contends  that  tthis  would  pre- 
clude the  attendance  of  Negro 
youths  in  other  educational  in- 
stitutions supported  by  the  state. 
The  A.ME.  church  will  fight  the 
Vernon-Landon  program,  and  the 
Incident  promises  to  cause  one  of 
the  most  bitter  political  battles 
in    the   history   of   Kan.ias. 

Politlci  seems  to  enter  into 
most  evry  worthwhile  endeavor 
of  the  Negro.  Particularly  is  this 
true  of  the  religious  and  frater- 
nal body's  fostered  and  main- 
tained by  that  class  ofjmraaltes

evening 


RAPID  WALKING,  regulyly  pursued,  is  benefioial 
to  health,  hips,  and  happiness.  It  won't  affect  a  streamline 
body  overtii^ht  or  cure  a  sluggish  circulation  in  a  week. 
Nor  will  it  magically  solve  spiHtual  and  mental  problems. 
But  given  time,  health  and  hips  will  surely  respond.  And 
as  for  one's  nervous  worries,  there  is  no  better  medicine. 

Or  perhaps  you  haven't  heard  abcut  walking?  Walk- 
ing, plain  ordinary  walking  outdoors  now  is  smart.  lt'«  a 
new  fad.  Wliy  they  even  have  teachers  in  New  York  who 
teach  debutantes  how  to  walk  propeerly.  Imagine  learning 
to  walk  at  eighteen!  Even  men  have  taken  to  walking  again 
and  several  of  New  York's  high-powered  business  execu- 
tives actually  give  up  their'^  morning  papers  to  walk  to 
wotk.  They  all  agree  that  walking  along  in  the  outdoors 
clears  the  head  and  promotes  lucid  thinking. 

Furthermore,  it's  perfectly  tijuc  that  fashionable  Park 
Avenue  has  re-discovered  legs.  Possibly  Ye  Olde  Depres- 
sion has  had  a  hand  in  this  pedestrian  state ^of  affairs  by 
taking  the  gentry  out  of  the  taxi. 

Let  it  be  added  that  jihysicians  register  their  approval. 

For  years  they  have  been  urging  women  to  walk  outdoors. 

And  they  are  pleajsed  to  see  the  country  on  a  walking  jag. 

hoping  that  the  craze  will  last  as  long  as  ProhibiUon  did.  lAu"memb"^rran"d"fr'iends" 

Rapid  walking,  they  say,  causes  the  muscles  to  massage  j  dj^ny  invited  to  be  guests  of  the

Baer.    for   example.   He   has   been   heard    to    remark    that  Miss  Ernestine  Bryant,  president, 
walking  is  great  exercise  for  men  and  women  alike,  that 
it  promotes  shm  hips  and  a  large  following.  Fredrick  March 
is  another  gifted  member  of   the   cinematic   nobility  who 

says  his  advice  to  women  is  the  same  as  his  slogan  for  i  Mr.s  Theima  Auther,  president, 
hiniaelf — "Forward  March!"  .  .  .  And  there  is  Ned  Way-  Wce  Modemcs,  Mrs.  Irene  Osibin,

FINDS  CAUSEIiF  HIGH  DIVORCE  RATE  IN  LACr. 
OF  MASCULINE  COMPANIONSHIP  FOR  BOYS; 
MARRIAOE  WRECKED  BY  MALE  DOMINtTIOK 

TWO  Vivkl.  POINTS  have  been  stressed  in  David 
Seabury'8  now/ book.  "What  Makes  Us  Ki-em  So  Queer?". 
just  piibliehecy  by  Whittle8«-y  House. 

The  first/deals  with  the  divorce  problem,  and  Mr.  Sea- 
bury  saj-s  of/ this:  "We  shall  never  solve  tho  question  of 
marriage  untjil  .it  least  half  of  the  boy's  early  life  is  con- 
ditioned by  iiis  own  aex.  Tho  average  man  must  have  as 
much  muscjuline  affection  and  di8<ii)line  in  his  early  life 
as  he  has  olf  feminine  affection  and  discipline,  or  we  cannot 
hope  to  hf^ve  normal  marital  relations.  The  average  mar- 
riage 13  ruined  before  a  man  reaches  iitl«;!esienee  by  the 
gynei)h()bifa  stored  in  the  depths  of  the  maseuline  jjcr- 
sonality.  /  .  .  .  "Gynephobia  is  common  indeed  and  consista 
of  a  fea|f-  of  woman.  The  average  man  was  brought  up  by 
his  mot'her,  by  women  nurses  and  teachers.  Fully  !»r'  per 
cent  of  )the  discipline  in  his  life  has  been  admini.stered  by 
women.  jThus  he  stores  in  his  heart  an  uneonKcious  fe«ling 
of  ,rts(/ntment  against  being  told  by  a  woman  what  Is 
right.  Unconsciously  he  is  ready  to  resist  ruggeations  made 
either  by  his  wife  or  by  any  other  feminine  adult.  He  ha.s 
a  feeliAg  he  must  keep  his  manly  firerogativvs,  must  bc-- 
come  ((dominant  over  these  creatuten  who  are  forever  tell- 
ing IViin  what   to  do." 

Fccondly,  Mr.  t-k-abury  |>oints  nut  that  not  all  marital 
diffiiuities  are  the  result  of  a  lack  of  ma.sculine  condition- 
ing. '  Women  also  often  have  qucemesseii  which  are  the 
resiylt  of  social   compulsion   and  (hildho.d  i  xpcneiices. 

"One  of  the  greatest  causes  of  divorees  in  American 
life/  lies  in  the  ir^capacity  cf  many  of  our  women  to  love 
fully  and  freely.  Though  the  marriage  relation  may  have 
been  successfully  consummated,  there  is  no  |isychic  union 
ajy  long  as  a  feminist  attitude  is  accentuated  by  a  primary 
c/ncern  of  woman  for  woman." 

The  sum  total  of  Mr.  Seabury's  findings  results  in  a 

'orthright  statement  that  society  will  have  the  problem  of

Week  of  December  7,  1934 


WELCOME 

Nfcirt  week  will  see  the  birth  of  a  sec- 
(mS  Negro  paper  in  San  Francisco  under 
the  fttiiding  hands  of  Mr.  Edwards  and 
Ml^.  .Ward  and  Mr.  Irvine. 

j,«^*  are  both  pleased  and  sorry. 

•  Our  pleasure  lies  in  the  fact  that  a 
s^nd  paper  in  San  Francisco  will  fulfill 
a  lont-felt  want.  No  city  should  have  only 
Otto  {Miper-  Just  as  no  man  should  read 
only.OOe  bpok  and  hope  to  come  at  truth 
taar  8U^  a  narrow  path.  Nothing  ever  writ- 
tra  tru  more  than  an  opinion.  The  more 
ij^fihioiti  one  can  obtain  on  a  subject  the 
mf^  likely  he  is  to  approach  nearly,  the 
mttb  cf nceming  that  matter.  It  was,  I 
i^HMj  Itark  Twain  who  suggested  in  reply

Spokeeman  has  always  been  a  lib-

taak  of  pointing  out  the  defects 
f,\^tM  as  it  saw  them.  In  that  it  has 
.^Otbething  like  a  doctor  who  ignores 
^iq^^iiiriae  healthy  body  of  his  patient 
It  out  a  boil  or  other  defect.  This  is 
fk'jpMlMLhy  duty  of  journalism.  Without  it 
(^•|lipit|ilH)W  would  be  almost  meaningless. 
' "J^nt^ver,  nothing  ever  written  in  this

■Iter  Mr.  Ilentam  came  into 

t^tidMlk.  lir<  ^mlth,   it 

miy  retained  a*.%  candle  to 


attract  the  California  Negro  votes.  And 
many  good  men  and  true  eanifastly  sup- 
ported Merriam  iu  the  belief  fhat  he  would 
do  "right  by  the  boya"  after  election. 

The  first  thing  Mr.  Merriam  did  was 
to  give  Mr.  Smith  the  well  known  axe. 

He  put  out  the  candle. 

We  wonder  who's  holding  the  bag. 

SIGNS  OF  PROGRESS  IN  TENNESSEE 

Liberalism  in  America  is  cropping  out 
in  the  most  unexpected  places.  We  discov- 
er the  Federa  IGovernment  actually  apply- 
ing for  experts  in  economics  to  advise 
them  as  to  the  best  corrective  economic 
legislation.  The  Supreme  Court  of  Ala- 
bama extended  the  date  of  execution  of 
the  two  condemned  Scottsboro  Boys.  And 
now  the  Ekiitor  of  the  Chattanooga  Times 
in  a  sudden  outburst  of  candor  admits 
that  Mr.  Mitchell,  a  Representative  in 
Congress,  would  be  treated  as  a  represen- 
tative in  Congress. 

Said  the  editor: — 

"There  is  not  the  slightest  valid  reason 
why  Mitchell's  color  should  be  a  deter- 
mining factor  in  the  official  treatment  ac- 
corded him.  In  business,  industry  and  the 
professions,  the  Negro  should  be  dealt 
with,  even  in  the  South,  on  terms  of  busi- 
ness, industrial  and  professional  equality. 
Much  more,  if  anything,  is  a  representa- 
tive of  the  race  in  Congress  to  be  met  and 
dealt  with  on  terms  of  official  equality. 
Any  Democratic  Congressman  or  other 
official  who  may  fail  to  meet  and  deal 
with  Mitchell  on  such  terms,  on  the  floor 
of  the  House,  in  committee  rooms,  in 
cloakrooms  or  in  executive  and  adminis- 
trative offices,  will  thereby  be  violating 
and  denying  the  first  principle  of  demo- 
cratic government." 

We  congratulate  the  Editor  on  his  dis- 
covery of  a  profound  truth.  We  would  sug- 
gest that  he  read  the  Constitution  of  the 
United  States,  a  document  which  contains 
ethical  doctrines  which  will  doubtless  be 
quite  a  shock  with  the  impact  of  their 
novelty  but  which  may  cast  much  light 
for  that  gentleman  in  his  earnest  search 
for  truth.

PENNY  WORTH  O'  HEALTH 

When  you  buy  your  Christmas  seals 
you  know  that  you  are  helping  to  pur- 
chase for  the  nation  the  most  precious 
commodity — health. 

The  long  war  on  tuberculosis  has 
proved  that  health  can  be  bought. 

In  1900  the  death  rate  from  tubercu- 
losis in  the  registration  area  was  201.9  per 
100,000  population.  Last  year  it  was  59.5. 
The  downward  curve  has  been  relentlessly 
steady.  This  one-time  white  plague  once 
stood  at  the  top  of  the  list  of  killers 
among  the  diseases.  Today  it  is  sixth.  Be- 
cause of  this  fight  the  lives  of  more  than 
160,000  Americans  are  being  saved  every 
.year. 

On  this  year's  seal  is  the  picture  of  the 
first  cottage  in  the  pioneering  sanatorium 
of  Dr.  Edward  Livingston  Trudeau  in  the 
Adirondacks.  Dr.  Trudeau  went  there  to 
die.  But  he  learned — today  it  is  a  medical 
truism — that  tuberculosis  need  not  be 
fatal. 

It  can  be  cured  and  it  can  be  prevented. 
The  annual  Christmas  seal  sales  have 
helped  to  do  both  for  hundreds  of  thou- 
sands of  Americans. 

•     •     • 

To  this  editorial  in  the  Daily  News  we 
might  add  the  reminder  that  tuberculosis 
is  one  of  the  most  common  diseases  among 
Negroes.  In  fact  it  is  so  much  more  preva- 
lent among  Negroes  than  whites  that  the 
opinion  was  advanced  by  an  eminent  medi- 
cal authority  that,  left  unchecked,  it 
would  solve  the  race  problem  by  totally 
exterminating  our  group. 

So  it  is  especially   important   to   you 

that   you  do  your  part   to  forward  this 

work.

AND  THIS  IS  "SOCIETY" 

(From    the   "Afro-American") 

At  most  many  parents  have  permitted 
queer  ideas  to  develop  among  us  about 
"society." 

We  permit  our  children  to  go  to  public 
receptions  at  a  time  when  they  should  be 
going  to  bed  and  allow  them  to  come  home 
in  the  ntoming  at  a  time  when  they 
should  be  getting  out  to  work 

In  many  cases  where  thequestion  is 
asked  why  cant  certain  people  support 
jieir  Y.M.C.A.,  Y.WX  A  ,  the  Urban  lea- 
gue, the  church,  the  Community  Fund,  the 
hospital,  the  college  and  the  N.AA.C.P. 
we  might  ar  well  admit  the  answer  is 
society. 

Why  the  small  number  of  stores?  Why 
the  low  rate  of  home  ownership?  Why 
the    high    rate    of    illegitimacy?    Society. 

Sensible  parents  who  are  eager  that 
their  children  shall  be  better  off  than 
themselveo  might  well  sit  down  with  pen- 
cil  and  paper  and  see  what  they  are  per- 
nuttini;  '.'society"  to  cost  thesv;' in '  money, 
Sn  time,  in  anxiety  and  ia  lost'eMcloneyt.

Thanksgiving  has  cAme  and 
gone,  and  we  know  that  there 
were  many  of  us,  who  had  a  great

should  have  been  thankful  just 
the  same  because  we  were  living 
and  most  of  us  were  enjoying 
very  good  health  and  that  In  It- 
self was  enough  to  be  thankful 
for. 

Fellows,  this  is  real  beman  tftlk 
and  real  fighting  talk.  If  you  are 
a  slacker,  then  you  won't  have  to 
read  this.  You  "who  servtd  yoitr 
country  during  the  war  owe  it  t6 
yourselves  to  join  somt  veteran 
organization.  Why  not  joih  the 
American  Legion?  A.  ti.  Wall 
Post  is  the  only  colored  organiza-

SCHOOL    DAY    ROMANCB 

On  Tuesday  evening.  November 
2T,  8  P.  M..  at  the  Chapel  of  the 
Flowers  in  Berkeley,  Miss  Jesuits 
Martin  became  the  bride  of  Mr. 
Lloyd  Hughes  of  San  Francisco. 
Rev.  Fred  Hughes,  fnlher  of  the 
groom,  read  the  marrlnKc  cere- 
mony. The  bride,  beituliful  in  a 
white  satin  gown,  long  white  veil 
held  In  place  by  a  clusfr  of 
pearls,  carrying  u  bou<|uct  of 
white  bouvardis,  rosebuds  and 
white  satin  ribbons,  the  gift  of 
Mayor  Rossi  of  San  Francisco, 
was  attended  by  her  sister  MIks  i 
Golden  Martin.  Miss  Martin  was ' 
gowned  in  blue  starched  chiffon,  I 
and  white  satin  sandals.  She  car-  | 
ried  a  bouquet  of  pink  June  rose 
buds.  Mr.  Fred  Hughes,  Jr.  at- 
tended his  brother  as  best  man. 
Miss  Miriam  McCard,  soloist, 
wearing  a  gown  of  blue  satin 
sweetly  sang  "I  love  you  truly.' 
The  bride  was  given  away  by  her 
father,   Mr.    Robert   Martin. 

Mr.  Hughes  is  a  graduate  of 
the  University  of  California.  He 
is  a  member  of  Pht  Beta  Kappa 
honor  society  at  this  institution. 
He  Is  the  eldest  son  bf  Rev.  and 
Mrs.  Fred  Hughes  of  San  Fran- 
cisco. Miss  Martin  is  the  eldest 
daughter  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Robert 
Martin  of  Second  Avenue,  Oak- 
land. She  also  is  a  former  student 
of  the   University  of  Culifornla. 

After  the  ceremony  a  reception 
was  held  at  the  home  of  the 
bride's  parents.  Mrs.  Robert  Mar- 
tin, charmingly  gowned  in  blue 
velvet  with  rbinestone  trimming 
and  accessories,  gardenia  corsage, 
and  silver  slippers  received  the 
guests.  She  was  assisted  by  Mes- 
dames  Louise  McCard,  Ernestine

Southern  part  of  the  state.  Upon 
their  return  they  will  be  at  home 
to  their  friends  at  their  San 
Francisco   apartment. 


Verbal  Snapshots 

By  W.  J.  \«hr«iU>n 
AUTOCRACV   IN    FB.VFKKNITIKS 

THE  FOLLOWING  may  be  termed  •'vilifittition";  if 
so,  the  entire  Negro  Press  will  stand  indicted,  and,  porhai* 
suspended.  It  is  Associated  Negio  Press  news,  and  tH*^ 
headline  of  several  newspapers  on  my  desk  declare  that, 
"J.  FINLEY  WILSON  IS  IN  DANGEROUS  MOVE".  Says 
the  subjoined  story;  "In  an  autocratic  move  that  many 
behcve  might  spell  the  beginning  of  his  downfall,  J.  Finlcy 
Wilson.  Grand  Exalted  Ruler  of  Elks,  this  week  called  olifj 
the  grand  convention  of  that  body  scheduled  to  nictt  here, 
(Washington,  D.C.)  in  August,  upon  the  failure  of  the  two| 
local  lodges  (Columbia  and  Morning  Star)  to  accept  the- 
appointment  of  ,Dr.  Cliarles  B.  Fisher  of  this  city  as  chair- 
man of  tlie  committee  on  arrangements  for  the  convention.) 
The  two  local  lodges  got  together  and  unanimously  endors- 1 
ed  a  candidate  of  their  own,  who  Wilson  refused  to  accept,  j 
The  lodges  resent  the  autocratic  attitude  of  the  GER  and 
say,  that  as  hosts  to  the  grand  convention  they  have  thc^ 
sole  right  to  select  their  own  chairman."  j 

Autocracy  here  on  the  Coast  has  been  the  cause  of; 
much  unrest  among  the  Antlered  Herd.  The  usurjwtion  of, 
the  rights  of  subordinate  lodges,  in  utter  defiance  of  their 
constitutional  privileges,  has  been  the  cause  of  feelings  notj 
conducive  to  the  cementing  of  fraternal  ties,  as  well  as  be- 
ing a  failure  toadherc  to  the  basic  principles  upon  which 
the  Order  is  built.  It  is  deplorable  that  even  the  inherent  | 
right  of  criticism  should  be  termed  as  villification  and 
treated  as  treason.  No  public  character  tan  clothe  himself 
in  garments  so  sacred  that  he  can  escape  the  barbed  shaft 
of  criticism,  be  it  favorable  or  adverse. 

And  by  the  way,  we  wonder  just  how  many  of  our, 
fraternal  organizations  are  preparing  to  give  a  Christmas 
joy  to  the  unfortunates.  Somehow  or  other,  there  seems  to 
j  be  a  lacking  of  the  old  spirit  that  obUined  in  San  Francis- 
Ico  in  the  old  days.  We  remember  when  the  back  streets, 
and  out-of-the-way  places  were  searched  out,  and  the 
j  Christmases  of  many  with  dismal  prospects  were  turned 
'  into  days  of  gladness.  This  writer  still  remembers  one 
Christmas  eve,  in  the  company  of  two  of  the  Anllered^ 
I  Herd,  we  unearthed  on*  of  the  most  pathetic  cases  of  dM-' 
titution  I  have  ever  seen.  There  were  an  ill  woman  with 
an  ill  child  huddled  under  a  bundle  of  clothes,  and  two 
others  who  had  rigged  up  the  branch  of  a  Christmas  tree 
with  some  tin  cans  and  colored  rags.  We  went  out  and 
the  fellows  emptied  their  pockets.  Toys  for  the  kids,  bas- 
kets of  food  for  the  household,  and  a  real,  honest-to-good- 
ness  Christmas  tree  for  all.  Fred,  get  cut  the  old  truck  and 
see  if  the  old  spirit  of  "Give"  can't  be  revived. 


ANTI-IYNCH  BILL  WONT  WORK,  SAYS 


(By  Paul  L.  Blakely,  S.J.,  in  the  Nov.  Issue  of  America) 

I  trust  that  I  shall  not  be  accused  of  drawing  the  color 
line  when  I  assert  that  the  white  man  has  as  much  right 
not  to  be  lynched  as  his  colored  brother.  In  fact  as  in  law, 
the  two  should  be  equal,  and  no  mere  variation  of  pigmen- 
tation should  be  invoked  to  sustain  special  privileges  in 
favor  of  the  Negro. 

Yet,  as  I  pore  over  newspapers,  magazines,  and  sta- 
tistical abstracts,  I  find  an  indefinite  number  of  pleas  for 
the  Negro,  but  hardly  one  for  the  protection  of  the  white 
man.  This  attitude  overlooks  the  fact  that  between  1885 
and  1932,  we  lynched  about  1,(XK)  white  men  and  women, 
and  we  lynched  them  with  impunity.  Although  everj-  case 
represented  murder  and  revolt,  in  not  a  single  instance  was 
capital  punishment  imposed  for  the  double  offense.  Let 
this  practice  be  carried  to  its  logical  conclusion  and  the 
crime  itself,  cannot  be  sectional. 

At  the  same  time,  I  observe  that  lynchers  are  quite 
commonly  referred  to  as  "Southern  brutes".  Every  lynch- 
ing, certainly,  connotes  a  brute,  and  generally  a  troop  of 
them:  but  why  the  discriminatory  adjective?  California, 
for  instance,  seems  to  specialize  in  lynching  white  men. 
Its  record  between  1889  and  1932  lists  25  whites  and  2 
Negroes.  In  Nebraska,  the  list  is  18  and  4,  in  Oregon  7 
and  1,  in  Wyoming  28  and  5,  and  in  Colorado  19  and  1. 
Here  we  have  a  choice  collection  of  brutes,  but  none  is 
from  the  South.  Discussion  of  the  topic,  like  the  cjime  it- 
self, cannot  be  sectional.  t 

Altogether,  according  to  Monroe  N.  Work,  of  Tuske- 
gee  Institute,  between  1885  and  1932,  no  fewer  than  985 
whites  wer^  lynched.  While  this  number  is  stnall  compared 
with  the  3.161  Negroes,  it  is  enough  to  move  the  question 
of  whether  we  are  not  insisting  too  much  on  the  peril  to 
the  Negro  and  too  little  on  the  peril  to  the  white  man- 
or woman.  Since  the  Fourteenth  Amendment  is  supposed 
to  guarantee  legal  equaUty,  in  preparing  new  State  or 
Federal  legislation  on  lynching,  care  should  be  taken  to 
prevent  discrimination. 

That  legislation  will  be  proposed  when  the  mills  begin 
to  grind  is  beyond  doubt.  Some  measures  will  be  adopted 
in  the  States  in  the  hope  of  showing  that  Federal  action  is 
unnecessary.  In  that  case,  the  Federal  bill  will  be  shelved; 
but,  then,  it  will  probably  be  shelved  in  any  case.  Such  is 
the  usual  fate  of  legislation,  when  a  detertnlned  minority 
face  an  indifferent  majority.  From  the  debates  in  Congress 
we  shall  reap  a  mass  of  useful  publicity,  when  and  if  the 
bill  is  reported  out;  but  Its  enactment  by  Congress  would 
greatly  surprise  me.  There  will  certainly  be'  a  deal  of  ar- 
gument over  the  provision  for  fines  ranging  from  $2,000 
to  $10,000  to  be  imposed  upon  recreant  counties  and  of- 
ficials, and  over  the  restriction  of  punishment  by  fine  or 
imprisonment  to  cases  in  which  the  murdered  man  has  been 
forcibly  taken  from  the  custody  of  the  law  officers. 

At  least  half  the  number  of  men  and  women  lynched 

were  never,  it  has  been  said,  in  legal  custr^dy.  It  would  be 

[possible  for  officials  to   nullify   this   legislation,   yet   come 

out  unscathed,  by  simply  declining   to  arrest   persons  ac- 

cused  of  crime,   and  in  danger  of  l)eing   lynched.   The  ef- 

Ifectiveness  of  the   fine   system   as   a   deterrent,    is   argued 

from  the  fact  that  South  Carolina  has  never  had  a  repiti- 

tion  of  the  rrim^  in  any  county  on  which,->iJjidiT  State  leg-

"arouses  a  feeling  of  satisfaction 
(pleasure)  which  effectively  coun- 
teracts tuxd  mitigates  the  pain  of 
the  offense,"  Dr.  Wlltels  warns 
against  a  too-ready  tendency  to 
explain  this  phenomenon  by  eco- 
nomic laws.  "It  seems  quite  clear," 
he  says.  In  reference  to  the  Claude 
Neal  lynching,  "that  a  sexual  per- 
version had  its  way.  .  .  The  sa- 
dist derives  sexual  pleasure  and 
gratification  from  the  infliction 
of  pain  and  torture  upon  another 
individual  and  not  infrequently 
upon  animals.  Deep  humiliation, 
Mutilation  and  ijiHiBder  perpetra- 
ted for  jdeasure-  are  the  axtreme 
of, this  piirversion."

ject of  the  discourse  by  Father 
D.  R.  Wallace  Sunday  raorutng 
at    St.    Augustine's    Mission. 

Father  Wallace  is  pointing  out 
that  while  the  first  coming  of 
Christ  was  necessary  to  make 
all  our  efforts  count,  since  no 
one  could  sav«  hiotself  or  anyone 
lese  apart  pfom  Christ,  and  while 
the  second  coming  will  be  dra- 
matic and  awful  in  its  judgment 
yet  11  IS  our  own  individual  duath 
which  we  must  watch  as  that 
comes  daily  for  some.  Then  will 
be  tlie  end  of  our  opportunity 
to  avail  ourselves  of  what  Christ 
came  to  give  us.  We  are  then 
ready    for    the    judgment. 

The  choir  will  present  a  special 
program  of  soitg  next  Sunday 
night  at  8  o'clock.  Arch  deacon 
JHoidgkin    will   be   the    preacher.

LOllS  AND  LEWIS  FIGHT  TONIGHT 

America's  two  outstanding  Ne^o  box-fighters  go  tb 
the  i>08t  tonight  (Friday)  and  if  they  return  victorioua,  it 
'  will  mean  much  in  their  fistic  climb  up  the  ladder  to  spot- 
light. Funny  too,  that  both  have  the  same  last  name,  biit 
;  tjjell  them  differently.  One  ia  Joe  Louis  of  Detroit,  who  ia 
{ the  present  sensation  of  beak-bruising  circles  and  heraltittl 
j  by  sports  editors  throughout  the  land   (including  my  goOa 
;Pal  Al  Santora  of  the  Post  Enquirer)  as  the  "Black  Men-. 
I  ace"  of  all  Heavyweights.  You  have  read  a  Uttle  of  jAcf% ; 
1  great  rise  on  these  pages — such  a  phenomenal  accent  Unit 
!  tonight,  after  only  a  dozen  profesBional  bouts,  he  is  schett* 
uled  to  meet  Lee  Ramage  in  a  Chicago  main  event   Of  tSe 
1 12  bouts,  Louis  has  scored  10  kayoes,  his  last  two  victims. 
,  being  Charlie  Maasera  in  three  rminds  and  Stanley  Poreda 
iin  one  heat.  Charley  just  beat  Hans  Birkie,  won  over  Boli 
i  Olin,    new   lightheavy   champ   and   went    10   sessions   to   a  • 
[draw   with    Steve    Hamas.    Poreda's    record    is   even    mo(« 
j  colorful,  Stanley  has  beat  Primo  Camera,  Tommy  Louglv-' 
ran,  Ernie  Schaff  and  Babe  Hunt.  In  both  matches,  Louis; 
I  gave  away  weight.  His  fighting  weight  is  195.  If  he  £,1Mk] 
to  the  poat  tonight,  here's  one  who  will  be  pulling  for  MM.' 
I  will  also  be  pulling  for  John  Henry  Lewis,  doped  to|

This  «->U  lie  Jdhn's  third  bout  and  according  to. a  lettsr! 
from  Frank  SAuler,  they  will  probably  return  after  tM»; 
match.  The  Coast  champ  has  won  and  lost  in  his  other  two; 
bouts  and  faces  a  tough  lad  in  the  Boston  Italian,  Who  haS' 
trounced  Lee  Ramage,  Bob  Olin,  Lou  Brouillard  and  a  heat;

Hu»lneM    Oirls    Elect    Otiiccr. 

Thursday  evening  past  the  din- 
ing room  of  the  Y.W.C.A.  was  the 
setting  of  a  Yuijtide  supper  pre- 
pared and  served  by  the  Presi- 
dent, Mrs.  Ruth  K.  Williams.  A 
small  white  Christmas  tree  deco- 
rated with  red  cellophane,  nnd 
red  candle,  made  a  beautiful  cen- 
terpiece. 

The  reports  for  the  year  given 
by  the  officers  showed  a  year  of 
activity  and  many  innovations  in 
the  club  program.  A.r.'r  declaring 
all  foflces  vacant  t^e  officers 
were  elected  as  follows:  Mrs.  Ruth 
B.  Williams,  president:  Mis*  Al- 
thaa  Clark,  vice  president;  Mrs. 
Rosalie  Smith,  recording  secreta- 
ry; Mrs.  Eunice  'Wagner,  finan- 
cial secretary;  Mlsi  Mary  Norris, 
treasurer;  Mrs.  Ruth  Meadows, 
membership  chairman;  Miss  Char- 
lotte Linfoot,  program  chairman; 
Miss  Ruth  Dean,  publicity;  Mrs. 
Jane    Hudson,   social    chairman. 

Installation  will  be  held  Thurs- 
day evening,  December  21,  with 
the  new  social  chairman,  Mrs. 
Jane   Hudson   in   charge. 

The  Business  Girls  have  made 
plans  for  a  Karnival  night  to  be 
held    early    in    January. 

Clubs    To     Have     Exhibition 

A  "Cet  Acquainted  Night"  is  to 
be  held  at  the  Linden  "Y "  Wed- 
nesday. December  19th  at  8  p.m. 
All  clubs  belonging  to  the  "Y" 
will  participate  and  exhibit  Mime 
of  the  work  that  has  been  done 
during    the    year. 

This  effort  will,  it  is  hoped, 
serve  a  two-fold  purpose:  it  will 
introduce  the  clubs  to  one  ano- 
ther and  give  the  friends  of  the 
club  members  a  chance  to  see 
some    of    the    craftiiVork    done    by 

Y  clubs.  Representatives  from  the 
diffet-ent  clubs  will  act  as  hos- 
tesses. 

"Y"    Offers    Hand    Craft 
Many     took     advantage     bf     the 
oportunlty     that     Linden     Branch 

Y  is  offering.  Last  Wednesday 
night  the  class  wtM  well  attended 
and  many  attractive  articles  werij 
started  under  the  supervision  of 
Miss    Evelyn    Kendall. 

It  is  not  too  late  to  join  the 
class.  If  you  have  not  already 
done  so,  register  by  calling  Holi-

A  REAL  BARN  DANCE^

B.v   "Chartle" 

To   begin   with,   d«sr   ladle.r   y^,'i'' 
should    know    thiit    a    uian    docsq,'^ 
like     just     any     kind     of     tobaccot-   i 
Ho     likes     HIS     kind     of     tobucoa. 
And    only    bis    kind.    It    may    smell      ' 
like    a    fire    In    a    slaughlvr-housf!.'.,  ,^| 
but    if    he    llkcH    tbtt    kind    of    Ut-    mi/ 
bacco,    there    is    little    you    can    d*  ■>  •'! 
about    it     He    will    get    the    kinti 
he     likes     If     he     has     to     buy     U 
himself. 

So,    before    you     buy    him    thoSb.  I  'I] 
cigars,    cigHrcttes,    or    pipe    tobac- 
co,  take   u   peek   at   the    brand    he  ,'■ 
smokes.  i    ..,ii| 

And  please,  pleiuie  lememblM'''^  1} 
Wind  of  this  we  should  like  to  re^'""'! 
mind  you  most  emphatically)  thi^t  ^^,1 
a  man's  preference  in  cu'ors  dafta..||.|l 
not  run  lo  such  positive  aaacb*  "  ifl 
tion  as  does  a  woman's.  Primary' '^| 
colors  are  nice  and  strung.  .  bifi. 
we  just  don't  like  them.  So  when 
you  buy  those  neckties,  sox.  and  ' 
handkerchiefs,  please  remember  ' 
that  wc  much  prefer  something 
quite  plain.  Black  and  white,  he,- , 
lieve  it  or  not,  are  very  popular 
with  the  male.  And  something  In 
the  darker  colors  will  •ave  us 
the  necessity  of  explaining  to  oyi 
friends  that  the  girl  friend  Is 
neither  a  lady  bull  fighter  nor 
completely   color   blind. 

If  you  buy  books  you  might 
apply  the  same  rule  you  use  with 
tobacco.  Find  out,  first,  wb^ 
kin<l  of  books  he  likes.  He  mgy'^ 
like  detective  stories.  Or  he  may 
like  stories  about  bunding  your 
own  cedar  chest.  But  find  ottt 
his  preference  before  you  I'qr  ' 
him    that     book. 

Another  thing  you  should  re- 
member about  books  is  that  a 
m.'in  may  go  to  his  books  (or  afi 
entirely  different  reason  than  you  , 
do  yourself.  If  he  works  In  an 
office,  or  does  any  kind  of  bralft 
work,  you'll  probably  find  thai 
he  prefers  the  lightest  kind  of. 
literature  This  is  because  he 
seeks  relaxation  in  his  reading. 
Remember  that  doctors  nnd  col- 
lege professors  arc  the  most  avid 
consumers  of  thrill  murder  mys<  i''.\ 
teries.  And.  on  Ihe  other  hand.' 
the  men  who  read  the  heavier 
books  are  often  truck  drlxxrs  oi 
blaekiimith.i  and  such.  They  want 
to  stimulate  their  minds  and  rest 
their    backs    when    they    read. 

And  here'.s  a  hint.  Don't  mak^ 
your  Christmas  gift  too  practical- 
Its  pleasiint  to  get  «oraethlng  one 
needs  for  Christma.s.  But  aftet 
all.  there  isn't  renlly  much  oaa^ 
can  do  In  the  rate  of  regltterlltg 
high  enthusiasm  over  a  pair  of 
SOX  Many  men  get  more  of  a 
kick  out  of  recelv'ng  some  gift 
they  can  use  but  wouldn't  buy 
themselves:  some  knlcknack.  a 
trick  ashtray,  a  pillow  for  his 
den.  amybe  a  picture,  or  even 
one  of  thow  crazy  dolls  than  he 
would  out  of  receiving  a  wrnag- 
sized  shirt.  Christmas  isn't  prac- 
tical. It's  lovely  the  gift  should 
be    too.

a  letter  that   has  been  lying  around  the 
house.   One   man   found   one   in   his   safe. 
In  fact  .sevoral  men  have  admitted  that 
tbey    found    this    dangerous    species    in 
their  safe.  One  of  the  things  that  is  puz- 
zling  medical   science   is  the   odd    attrac- 
tion a  safe  seems  to  have  for  this  spider. 
Both    men   and   women    are    listed    a 
laoag  her  victims.  Dr.  Oscar  Academus, 
world-famous   Viennese  authority  on   poi- 
■qnous  insects,  after  several  years  of  re- 
Mftltsll,    admitted    the    startling    discovery 
t)iat  wives  are  more  often  the  victims  of 
tile  «Uack  of  this  deadly  spider  than  are 
8Bl|^  women.  He  intended  to  explain  this 
fqt  the  benefit  of  the  Fleischmann  Yeast 
nfOple,  but,  unfortunately,  their  contracts 
fqr  19S5  have  already  been  drawn  up  and 
wigoe^-  ^  I^i*.   Academus  refused   to  ex- 
iitadn  until  he  can  get  a  radio  hook-up. 

He  did  admit,  however,  that  men  who 
-«|«  bitten  by  the  spider  are  often  unaware 
<oi  the  fact  until  the  next  day.  In  this 
lies  their  great  danger.  You  don't  know 
J^  hftve  been  stung  until  too  late.

THE  COUNTRY  is  getting  a  good 
laugh  out  of  the  action  of  an  Eastern 
millionaire  vho  gave  his  entire  fortune 
to  charity  in  order  to  attain  "freedom" 
The  concensus  of  opinion  among  those 
who  arrive  at  their  oiJiniona  via  the 
snap-judgment  route  is  that  probably  he 
Is  substituting  the  slavery  of  economic 
need  for  the  slavery  of  economic  surplus. 

Whether  or  not  he  has  done  this 
latter,  for  one  thing,  we  must  give  him 
credit.  Once  he  has  arrived  at  a  decision 
concerning  his  life  and  the  reasons  for  its 
unhapjwness,  he  had  the  courage  and  the 
v/ill  to  attempt  a  correction  of  the  fault. 
His  ri£:ht  arm  he  thought  offended  him; 
he  cut  it  off.  '  ' 

How  many  of  us  would  have  similar 
courage  ?

EDUCATION  AT  SAN  QUENTIN 

ACROSS  THE  BAY  they  are  celebra- 
ting the  twentieth  anniversary  of  the  in- 
ception of  1  system  of  education  among 
the  prisoners  of  San  Qucntin.  It  is  widely 
paid  that  the  inculcation  of  learning  wil! 
make  the  prisoners  better  citizens  and 
more  fit  to  take  their  rightful  place  in 
wciety  once  they  have  served  their  terms. 
This  hopeful  attitude  is  both  the  original 
'•ause  and  thief  reason  for  continuing 
the  syatem  of  extension  courses. 

We  cannot  hold  with  the  learned 
gentlemen  that  having  prisoners  exposed 
to  so*  many  i)ages  of  written  matter  each 
week  will  produce  a  complete  reversion 
of  character  to  the  end  that  the  habitual 
criminal  will  return  to  the  world  to  be- 
come a  pillar  of  the  church  and  a  leader 
in  youth  movements.  But  it  wiil  probably 
make    them    better    criminals. 

There  is  nothing  just  as  good  as  a 
liberal  education  to  help  a  man  better 
his  thinking  machinery.  However,  we 
sincerely  doubt  that  the  American  col- 
leges can  produce  in  the  mass  of  students 
anything  so  startling  as  a  complete  re- 
vising of  their  philosophy. 

The  average  college  student  reads 
philosophy  and  goes  to  the  zoo.  And  he 
contemplates  the  phenoinena  about  him 
with  entirely  objective  eyes.  Something 
to  be  observed  and  noted,  but  hardly 
anything  about  which  one  should  "do 
something"  m  relating  it  to  his  own  life. 

However,  there  are  indications  that 
some  of  the  students  do  acquire  a  certain 
sharpening  of  their  wits  through  the  me- 
dium of  .a  college  education.  So  that  they 
are  able  to  rationalize  their  previous  opi- 
nions and  give  reasons  for  their  habits 
of  mind.  Too,  they  are  saved  from  mak- 
ing unreasonable  errors  after  a  fashion, 
so  tliat  they  escape  some  of  the  mistakas 
of  those  less  gfifted  of  fortune. 

A  career  in  crime  in  America  is, 
today,  one  of  the  most  promising  among 
the  professions.  Of  course,  there  are  fail- 
ures— Just  as  there  are  failures  in  every 
business.  However,  the  success  in  that 
field  as  in  any  other  field  is  aided  by  an 
oducation.  So  that  we  can  hope  in  the 
future  to  see  California  produce  some 
of  the  most  brilliant  criminals — maybe, 
even  produce  a  creator  of  another  Teapot 
Dome  scandal  to  rival  that  interesting 
loUege  of  criminal  minds  that  made  the 
Harding    administration    such    a    flower 

in   the   pages  of  American  history.

THE     30  -  CENT     MINIMUM 

WE  BEUEVE  THAT  the  National 
Association  for  the  Advancement  of  Col- 
ored People  in  nowise  exaggerates  possi- 
ble consequences  when  it  contends  that 
•J)c  Federal  Emergency  Relief  Adminis- 
tration's abandonment  of  the  80-cent 
hourly  minimum  relief  wage  will  be  fol- 
lowed by  ruthless  exploitation  of  nine 
million  Negroes  in  the  South.  Harry  L. 
Hopkins,  FERA  chief,  'has  announced 
that  the  government  will  pay  the  prevail- 
ing wage  in  cotnmunities  where  relief 
vorkers  are  employed. 

Consideied  casually,  Mr.  Hopkins' 
statement  ot  poUcy  does  not  appear  a- 
larming.  Abandonment  of  the  30-cent 
minimum,  however,  means  that  the  gov- 
omment  has  surrendered  to  Southern 
opposition,  which  holds  that  the  former 
minimum  is  too  high.  ThousiUkIs  of  em- 
pioy^n  in  the  South  pay  their  workers 
— especially  the  Negro  on««-i-much  less, 
r.nd  they  want  to  continue  to  get  cheap 
iabor  without  competition  from  relief 
agencies. 

It  seems  to  us  that  the'  administra- 
tion is  dodging  an  important  issue  and 
forgetting  its  pledge  to  iralte  the  living 
standards  of  American  workers.  Negroes 
and  labor  groups  should'  be  insistent  in 
their  dentands  that  the  fovemment  again 
institute  the  30-cent  minimum  and  em- 
yloy  Its  resources  in  raising  w*ges  in  the 
South  with  the  same  dUigsncc  that  has 
characterized  its  boosts  of  iivfnf  costs. —

Nearly  15,000  SERA  \vorkers  In  San  Francisco  are 
doing  Just  about  what  everybody  else  is  doing  to  earn  a

we  soon  pass  up  the  middle  of  a 
city  street  until  the  train  arrives 
at  Central  Station.  There  is  more

On  Sunday  pt^  hod  the  pleasure 
of  visiting  th»t  beautiful  country 
club  Val  Ver4#,  It  Is  beautifully 
located  about  w  miles  from  L.  A., 
above  Sargua.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Carl 
Hall,  with  #hom  we  stopped, 
took  us  on  this  trip.  Many  lovely 
cabins  have  ^lieen  put  up,  and 
plans  are  uncter  way  for  extens- 
ive   Improvements. 


A  Mr  and  Mrs.  Scott  has  n 
most  wonderful  home  there  with 
every  modern  .convenience  includ- 
ing electric  stigwe,  frigidaire  and  a 
modern    bar       ' 

Mr.    and    I 
very  comfortsine  little  cabin    They 
call    the    Btnok    Shock     And    many 
pleasant     wefk    ends     are     spent 
here. 


And     now 


Obviously,  we  need  something  more  than  statutes.  We 
need,  first  of  all,  an  appreciation  of  the  law  of  God.  As  I 
wrote  last  year  of  the  lynchings  in  Maryland,  the  State  is 
obhged  by  every  title  of  justice  to  pursue  and  punish  the 
murderers;  but  this  done,  its  duty  is  to  investigate  the 
county  affected,  and  to  search  out  the  causes  why  this 
community,  supposed  to  be  civilized,  condones,  or  approves, 
or  promotes  murder.  With  the  completion  of  this  survey, 
the  State's  next  duty  is  to  invite  the  aid  of  every  agency 
which  is  capable  of  lessening  and  by  degrees  destroying  the 
operation  of  these  causes. 


Districts  in  which  illiteracy  flourishes,  in  which  super- 
stition has  replaced  religion,  and  in  which  ehi-onic  alcohol- 
ism is  generally  accepted  as  connoting  virihty.  are  not  civi- 
lized. The  first  means  of  reform  is  not  to  harry  the  unfor- 
tunate inhabitants  through  a  system  of  justice  which  they 
do  not  understand,  but  to  civilize  them  through  the  church 
and  school.  If  a  choice  must  be  made,  it  seems  to  me  that 
a  million  dollars  invested  in  real  education  would  strike  far 
more  directly  at  lynching,  than  the  creation  of  a  new  set  of 
courts  or  commissions  for  the  protection  of  persons  about 
to  be  lynched,  for  the  punishment  of  localities  infested  by 
lynchers,  and  for  the  financial  remuneration  of  the  survi- 
vors of  the  lynched. 

Disillusionment  follows  too  much  reliance  upon  the  ef- 
fectiveness of  statute  law  as^a  direct  means  of  moral  im- 
provement or  of  social  reform.  The  law  is  a  sword,  as  Aris- 
a  Hall  have  a  totlc  has  Written,  which  the  State  will  have  occasion  tc 
use.  But  it  is  better  to  teach  men  willingly  to  embrace  vir- 
tue, and  so  escafie  the  painful  duty  o(  punishing  the  wicked 
and  the  hopeless  task  of  trj-ing  to  reform  them  by  brute 


force.

occeplubic    to    the    faction    headed 

by    IJr.     H.     Claude     Hud.son.     who 

did    not    seek    re-election,    but    who 

sought  to  name  his  successor. 

The  opposition  slate  was  head- 
ed by  Rlliott  I  Johnson  and  in- 
cluded nominees  for  other  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.  offices.  None  of  the 
names  were  printed  on  the  ballot, 
but  the  chairman  ru'ed  that  they 
could  be  placed  in  nominntlbn 
from  the  floor  und  that  those  fa- 
vorln;i  them  would  have  to  write 
in    their   candidates. 

Hardly  had  the  ruling  been 
made  than  n  dozen  speakers 
sprang  up  to  protest  the  ruling, 
charging  favoritism  and  an  at- 
temr>t  to  railroad  through  the 
"official"  slate.  Attorney  Fdwin 
L.  .lefferson  finally  got  tfte  lloor 
to    nominate   Johnson. 

Other    speakers    demanded    that 


with  gifu.  In  this  manner  they 
gained  entrance.  They  saw  aMti

AUGUSTA  GA.  BUILDS 
FIRST  HIGH  SCHODL 

AI'GL'.STA.  Ga.   De.     .s      The   re- 
cent    completion     of     two     modern 
and      commodious      public      school 
buildings    for   colored   children    and 
the    addition    to   the   curriculum    of  j 
one   ycnr   of   high   school   work    ere  ( 
hailed     here    as    the    dawn     of    a 
brighter   day    for   Negro   public   ed- 
ucation     In      Augusta.     The      two 
buildings,    costing    a    quarter    of    a  j 
million    dollars,    were    erected    from 
the    proceeds    of    a    recent    million  [ 
dollar       bond       Issue       for       public 
schools     Their    cost    In    proportion 
to    the   entire   building    program    II 
not     far    from    the    proportion    of 
Negroes     In     the     total. 
Negroes    In    the    lotui    population. 

The  grounds  are  now  being  put 
into  condition  by  a  force  of  CWA 
workers. 

Siniullaneously  with  the  con- 
slruetlon  of  the^e  new  schools,  the 
city  bonrd  of  education  Is  Intro- 
ducing the  flr.'it  graile  of  high 
school  work,  with  the  expectation 
that  an  additional  grndo  will  bo 
added  eirh  year  until  n  full  high 
school  standard  h'ls  been  achieved. 
Tills  l.'i  a  notable  mov. ,  since  for 
many  years  the  city  has  provided 
no  high  school  facilities  whatever 
for  Its  Negro  children,  but  has 
left  Ihim  entirely  dependent  upon  . 
private  schools  for  their  high  I 
school    opportunities.  I

"If  there  is  n  so-called  Negro 
problem  In  Alabama  l<Kla.v.  it  Is 
nol  so  much  a  social  as  It  l.s  an 
ec<momic  problem."  said  Mr  Holt 
To  our  mind,  il  is  true  that  if 
we  could  aid  the  Negro  to  place 
himself  on  n  sound  economic  bas- 
is, standing  on  his  own  account, 
without  the  necessity  of  depend- 
ence on  the  difficulties  of  social 
adjustment,  then  the  other  aspects 
of  the  problem  would  more  quick- 
ly solve  themselves  It  se6ms  log- 
Icnl  that  a  materially  larger  num- 
ber of  independent  Negro  farm-

to  Thr  Spoltoaman.  Mr.  Siiay  ulU 
.      ,te   Klad    to    reply. 

The  Hollywood  movie  manufactu- 
ers  have  discovered  that  there  is 
money  to  be  made  out  of  exploit- 
lag  the  tragedy  of  the  "passing" 
Negro.  The  result  is  "Imitation  of 
'  '  Life",  and  in  this  motion  picture 
we^  are  urged  to  believe  that  the 
rJi^ro's  only  chance  for  happi- 
ness is  within  the  stifling  bound- 
aries of  a  jim-crow  world.  Any 
Negro  who  can  see  this  film  and 
enjoy  it  needs  to  be  shaken  into 
consciousness. 

"Imitation  of  Life",  advertising 
The  somewhat  frayed  charms  of 
' 'Claudelte  Colbert  and  the  invisi- 
ble talents  of  Warren  Williams, 
h^  won  wide  attention  in  spite 
of  the  mediocrity  of  these  two 
"•tars"  and  the  banality  of  their 
love-story.  The  real  reason  for  tlie 
films  success  has  been  the  fact 
tliat  a  hitherto  ignored  facet  of 
American  life-  and  therefore  inter- 
esting—has for  the  first  time  been 
represented    on    the    screen. 

Louise  Beavers,  a  Negro,  as  the 
mother  of  the  girl  who  wants  to 
"pass",  is  prominently  cast.  But 
only  a  false  and  treacherous  sat- 
isfaction   can    arise    from    this    re- 


college.  In  a  last  desperate  ef- 
fort to  escape  the  barbarous  im- 
prisonment of  color  she  disowns 
her  mother.  Aunt  Dctilah  dies  of 
grief.  Pcola  returns  to  repent 
over  her  coffin,  now  re*dy  to 
descend  into  the  ranks  of  the  un- 
derprlvillged  Negroes.  What  do 
the  millioBs  of  American  Negroes 
thinlc  about  this  degrading  "so- 
lution" of  their  struggle  for  hu- 
man   rights? 

The  scene  in  which  Collicrt 
luggests  t))at  Peola  be  sent  back 
to  a  Negro  (jim-crow)  college 
gives  rise  to  a  speech  by  A^int 
I^tilah  that  is  the  arch-type  for 
tbe  cowed  state  of  mind  "respec- 
tat'le"  Negroes  are  encouraged 
to  have.  Louise  says:  "THERE 
IS  VO  USB  IN  FIGHTING.  Ckid

Oscar  RanVins  successfully  de- 
fended his  coast  middleweight  ti- 
tle against  Tommy  Kios  at  the 
Olympic  Auditorium  Tuesday 
night.  Rankins  won  every  round 
but  the  eighth  and  ninth.  The 
Uexican  has  a  record  of  being  a 
tough  customer,  and  has  a  deci- 
sion over  Vioce  Dundee.  Rios 
proved  to  be  no  trouble  to  the 
titian-haired    chap. 

Leo  "Deacon"  Kellcy,  168,  of  San 
Pranciseo,  stopped  Kmilio  Marti- 
nes,  ues,  Denver,  in  the  first 
ten-round  feature  event.  Soma 
weeks  ago  Martinez  couldn't  meet 
Kelley  because  of  a  cold,  and 
when  he  met  him  Tuesday  night 
the  "Deacon"  rocked  him  in  such 
a  convincing  manner  that  referee 
Larry   McGrath   stopped   the    bout. 

In  the  first  round  a  hard  right 
floored  the  Mexican.  The  second 
was  even.  The  third  found  the 
Penver  southpaw  on  the  floor 
twice  from  devastating  right 
hands,  when  Martinez  got  up  the 
second  time  it  was  obvious  that 
oe  was  out  on  his  feet  so  referee 
Larry    McGrath    stopped    the    one-

cism of  anything  I  do, "  said  Huey 
L/ong,  "KlQgfish"  dictator  of  the 
iovercign  state  of  Louisiana.  The 
editor  of  the  college  paper  had 
dared  to  criticise  the  "Kingfish" 
for  his  meddling  with  the  football 
team.  If  you  were  to  substitute 
the  university  for  another  name, 
you  find  the  prototype  of  Huey, 
who,  also,  has  clottied  himself 
with  the  halo  of  such  sacrcdness 
that  to  make  mention  of  the  holy 
name  in  terms  other  than  that  of 
servile  obeisance  is  to  condemn 
one  to  fraternal  oblivion.  The 
Louisiana  "Kingfish"  has  made 
himself  the  laughing  butt  of  the 
nation.  As  a  dictator  he  is  riding 
to  a  fall.  That  will  be  the  fate  of 
all  dictators;  even  Hitler  and  the 
cruel  Stalin.

:!ruel  pronouncements  of  the  Czars 
and  the  murderous  rulings  of  the 
Soviet.  "Both  regimes  are  a  dis- 
grace to  civilization  and  no  form 
of  government  based  on  the  fear 
of  death  can  survive."  he  said.  It 
does  s6em  impossilT.e  that  such 
wholesale  killings  as  has  marked 
the  recent  reports  from  the  Soviet 
Republic  can  long  be  countenanced 
by  the  more  progressive  nations. 
True:  Many  other  iftitlons  need 
to  clean  the  Augean  stables; 
many  of  the  nations  who  claim 
leadership  in  the  Christian  world 
need  a  revamping,  but  not  one, 
save  the  Hitler  regime,  has  so 
daringly  flnuntsd  the  flag  of 
cruel  murder  in  the  face  of 
clviltzatlon  as  had  the  rclgn  of 
Stalin.  Musolini  made  an  ex- 
ample of  criminals,  but  he  en- 
couraged and  still  encourages, 
his  people  to  walk  In  the  path 
of    happiness. 

"The      Republican      party     must

VA'ck  of  December  21,  Um 


THE  SPOKESMAN 


of    the    conference    by    the    Pres- 
ident  to   the   close,   it   was   fraught 
with      interest.     Every     phase     of 
crime    was    considered    and    idea.'< 
for    crime    abatement    formulated. 
It     i.s     astounding     how,     and     to 
what   extent,   the   criminal   has   in- 
sinuated   himself    into    the    social 
life     of     the     nation.     The     United 
States     is     given     the     unenviable 
distinction      of      being      the      most 
crime    ridden    nation    that    boasts  i 
of    progressive    civilization.    In    our ' 
desire    to    make    this    country    .in ' 
asylum  for  the  oppressed  we   hav^'  ' 
unwittingly,    invited    the    refuse    of  > 
other     countries.'    Instead     of     de-  ' 
porting    alien    criminals    we    have 
made     it     possible     for     them     to 
accumulate  great  wealth  and  there- 1 
by    contaminate,    through    bribery, 
the     weaklings     who    we     selected 
to   give   us   lawful    protection.   One  ! 
of    the    bright    spots    in    the    agen- 
da    of     the     conference     was     the  | 
reference      to      LYNCHING,      that 
great  American  pastime.  The  Pres- 
ident,     in      his      opening      address, 
struck      the      key-note,      and      the 
conference    classed    it    among    the 
crimes     that     should     receive     the 
fullest     consideration.

.  This  offer  makes  her  »  real 
100  per  cent  NRA  American;  and 
also  represents  the  first  step  In 
the  film's  argument  for  "putting 
the   Negro   in   his   place". 

Claudette's  heart  is  touched.  Lou- 
ise   gets    the    job    and    moves    in 
v.'lth    her    own    little    girl     (almoat 
white).  The  white  woman  admires 
Louise's   pancakes.  Louise,  lieing  a 
..Nefiro  and  therefore  naturally  sim- 
plc-.iiinded,    says    the    recipe    is    a 
secret,    an    old    family   secret — and 
than  proceeds  to  reveal  s&id  secret. 
•  •Ijiext  we   find  Colbert,  without  the 
iinowledge    or    consent    of    Louise, 
opening    a    pancake    stand.    Making 
^k>»    pancakes    Is    the    Negro,    por- 
•y    tcAyed    as    very    happy    to    do    the 
::     work,    make    profits   for   her   mist- 
reu,    and    have    her    picture    used 


Not  in  the  bonred  head,  but  in 
the  upraised  arm,  lies  the  future 
of   the   Amerloan    Negro.       ' 

Surely  any  Negro  who  can  en- 
joy a  film  like  "Imitation  of 
Life"  needs  to  be  shaken  into 
consclousneta.  The  mere  presenoe 
of  Louise  Beavers  as  the  Im- 
personatej'  of  this  slave-t^pe  of 
Negro  makes  the  whole  thing 
a   lie.

So  out  the  front  door  and  past 
the  boys  Pat  stepped,  with  that

The  judge  only  requires  eight

the  Judge  is  not  so  cruel  after  all. 

Thos«  two  two-year-olds  of  the

Bryant  and  Pankey,  Jr.  made

Breaing  clothes  and  groomed  to 
perfection,  these  two  boys  stood

boy  stood  back  after  a  few  strug- 
gles and  walched  youth  take  Its 
place,  ghdtng  along  with  the  ease 
of  a  straight  eight.  The  occasion 
was  tile  debut  of  Miss  Eleanor

of  Mr  and  Mrs  William  DeClay-

Cottage,  B^keley,  and  the  hall 
was  filled  with  what  Woodlyn 
Perkins  wpuM  descriH^  as  gor-

Citizens    of    the     Bay    area    are 
up      in     arms,      and      rightly      so. 
over    the    projected    terms    of    th'j 
Bay    Bridge    transportation    as    of- 
fered    by     the     Key     System     and 
the    Southern    Pacific    Railways.    If 
ever    there    was    a    grab    of    som- 
thing    for    nothing    it    Is    the    offer 
of    those    two    systems    of    trans- 
portation.   It    was    a    canny    move 
on    the    part    of   the    S.    P.    to   put 
in      the      clause      to      reserve      the 
right   to   continue   to   operate    their 
automobile  ferries  when  the  bridge 
Is     completed.     In     that     case     the  I 
terry    could    make    the    auto    fare  | 
so     that    It     would     detract     from  \ 
the     bridge     traffic     and     thereby 
take    away   one    of    the    best    sour- 
ces off   revenue.  The  whole  of  the 
proceedings    were    so    glaring    that

Week  of  December  21,  1934 

ONE  LESSON  OF  CHRISTMAS 

Again  we  come  to  enjoy  the  most  beau- 
tiful festival  in  our  heritage  of  history.  A 
day  set  aside  to  commemmorate  the  bir'h 
of  a  Man,  and  to  serve  as  a  reminder  of 
the  ideas  by  which  He  Hved. 

The  world  has  chosen  the  one  sure  way 
of  keeping  those  ideas  alive;  by  putting 
them  into  practice.  In  a  way,  every  gift 
•we  mrke  is  a  candle  to  His  memory. 

There  is  httle  in  the  Christmas  spiri' 
that  i?  not  an  expression  of  an  ideal  He 
bved.  It  is  entirely  in  keeping  with  this 
spirit  that  we  make  this  day  one  of  es- 
pecial joy  to  children. 

There  is  nothing  in  the  entire  ritual  of 
Christmas  concerned  with  selfishness.  Our 
only  thought  is  to  give.  To  bring  happiness 
to  others.  And  in  that  act,  we  have  dis- 
covered, lies  great  happiness  for  ourselves. 

The  strange  sad  tragedy  of  civilization 
is  that  mankind  refuses  to  accept  this 
yearly  lesson  and  make  the  spirit  of 
Christmas  a  part  of  our  everyday  lives. 
Most  of  us  deny  ourselves  that  happiness 
except  in  the  holiday  season. 

Some  men  have  found  it  an  entirely 
practicable  way  of  everyday  life. 

Perhaje,  with  sufficient  courage,  we 
might  learn  to  daily  share  in  the  happiness 
they  have  found. 

CURING  THE  DOPE  EVIL, 

The  Federal  Government's  periodic  na- 
tion-wide drive  against  dope  peddlers  and 
depots,  which  caught  several  bay  area 
race  men  and  women  in  its  net,  has  been 
a  matter  for  wide  discussion. 

The  dope  habit  is,  without  doubt,  one 
of  the  most  serious  diseases  of  modern 
civilization.  Not  only  does  it  rob  men  and 
women  of  freedom  of  will,  of  ambition 
and  of  uscfullness,  but  it  carries  as  an 
almost  inevitable  consequence  of  its  habit- 
ual us<.».  the  degeneracy  of  the  addicts  into 
criminals  forced  to  prey  on  society  in 
order  to  obtain  the  money  necessary  to 
purchase  the  drugs. 

The  Federal  drive  was  handled  with 
the  usual  efficiency.  It  was  effective  in 
the  usual  way:  distribution  channels  were 
broken  up,  many  thousands  of  dollars 
worth  of  dope  was  seized  and  hundreds  of 
"runners"  and  other  lesser  agents  were 
arrested.  They  will  be  imprisoned.  And 
new  channels  will  be  developed,  new  run- 
ners foimd  and  greater  secrecy  will  be,  for 
A  time,  employed.  This  will  mean  an  in- 
crease in  the  cost  of  distribution.  It  will 
be  taken  care  of  by  an  increase  in  the 
cost  of  the  product  to  the  consumer.  But 
the  diftributjon  will  continue. 

No    cleanup,    however    thorough,    v/ill 

ever    be    successful   in   stamping   out    the 

trade  in  narcotics  so  long  as  il  is  confined 

to  the  market  rather  than  to  the  source. 

The  only  way  the  worid  can  ever  be  freed 

"Xfrom   Ihe   traffic    in   dope   is   by    the   en- 

,Bctment     of     legislation     contn)lling     the 

,  growing  of  narcotic  producing  plants. 

Nearly  all  of  the  world's  supply  of 
nunootics  come  from  Asiatic  countries 
udder  the  control  of  European  powers. 
Ilieae  powers  could,  if  they  were  willing, 
pan  laws  limiting  the  crops  to  the  amount 
neop—ary  to  produce  only  those  drugs 
uaed  for  medicinal  purposes.  International 
mo^ngs  have  been  called  in  an  attempt 
to  pit  through  this  legislation. 

Tbe  power*  refused  to  agree  to  the 
liintting  laws  because  profits  from  this 
tr«4e  are  ao  great  they  form  a  source  for 
bi^ie  tmx  useflsments. 

XJntO  such  a  control  is  put  into  effect 
tire  mil  expect  periodic  dope  cleanups  to 
ht  ft  ytxt  of  the  national  idiime. 


PUT  PRESSURE  ON  CONGRESS! 

A  ration-wide  drive  to  have  the  Costi- 
gan-Wagner  anti-lyuching  bill  passed  by 
the  next  Congress  has  been  set  to  open 
on  January  6.  It  is  of  first  importance  to 
every  Negro  in  America  that  this  bill  be 
passed,  simply  for  its  value  in  itself.  But 
there  is  a  second  reason  why  the  pressure 
which  will  be  directed  toward  Congress 
in  support  of  this  bill  should  be  as  great  as 
it  is  po.ssible  to  make  it. 

The  Congress  we  are  asking  to  pass 
this  bill  consists  almost  wholly  of  Demo- 
crats. This  party  which  has  been  the  tradi- 
tional enemy  of  the  Negro  in  politics,  is, 
for  the  first  time,  becoming  aware  of  the 
importance  of  the  Negro  vote.  The  lit'le 
nudge  in  the  ribs  given  these  gentlemen 
by  the  election  of  Mitchell  to  their  own 
ranks,  has  served  to  point  the  fact  that 
the  Negroes  hold  the  balance  of  voting 
power  in  several  important  regions. 

The  novelty  of  such  an  idea  will  make 
it  difficult  for  Jthe  gentlemen  to  accept  so 
revolutionary  an  idea  without  strong  per- 
suasion. Their  minds,  however,  are  open 
and  seeking  in  this  matter.  The  Costigan- 
Wagner  Bill  will  offer  us  the  opportunity 
to  convince  them.  It  is  up  to  each  one.  of 
us  to  make  it  his  duty  to  see  that  every- 
thing v,'ithin  his  power  is  done  to  help  this 
cause  along,  both  in  order  to  pass  the  bill 
and  that  we  may  establish  our  strength  in 
order  to  obtain  fairer  consideration  in  the 
future. 

«       •       •       •       • 

BUSINESS  IS  WHAT  YOU  MAKE  IT 

The  Negro  business  man  and  woman 
is  fond  of  making  the  ancient  complaint, 
"Our  people  won't  support  us."  They  then 
sit  idly  by  in  the  complete  resignation  of 
one  who  has  borrowed  a  phrase  to  explain 
an  insupportable  obstacle  in  the  way  of 
success. 

We  sometimes  wonder  that  these  peo- 
ple don't  turn  with  lago  and  say,  "'Tis 
in  ourselves  that  we  are  thus  or  thus." 
Often  the  reason  they  are  not  supported 
is  that  they  are  not  deserving  of  support. 
How  many  of  them  can  offer  a  place  of 
business  that  is  equal  in  efficiency,  clean- 
liness and  price  to  the  average  white  place 
of  business?  How  many  of  them  can  say 
that  they  offer  the  prospective  customer, 
in  return  for  this  racial  loyalty,  any  special 
inducement  to  repeat  his  patronage. 

It  is  hardly  to  be  expected  that  a 
restaurant  owner  who  serves  his  cus- 
tomers greasy  food  in  mismated  plates, 
and  poor  coffee  in  cracked  cups;  and  then 
charges  him  more  than  he  would  have  to 
pay  across  the  street  for  more  appetizing 
food  with  cleaner  service  should  receive 
racial  loyalty  where  no  loyalty  is  due. 

Business  success  is  founded  on  a  keen 
knowledge  of  the  desires  and  tastes  of  the 
average  customer.,  Jt^happens  thatu  tliaae  4s 
desires  anff  tastes  are,  fundamentally,  the 
same  regardless  of  race.  No  one  can  hope 
for  success  without  first  putting  his  house 
in  order  in  regard  to  these  facts.

MORGAN    SINGS    SPIRITUALS 

Morgan  College's  music  department 
sponsored  a  lecture  on  spirituals  and  the 
singing  of  them  by  a  double  quartet 
Monday  night  in  Baltimore  before  a 
public  meeting  of  the  inter- racial  com- 
mission. 

Morgan  College  seems  to  be  where 
Tuskegee,  Fisk  and  Hampton  were  twe- 
nty years  ago — namely,  at  the  point 
where  ft  was  necessary  for  their  quar- 
tets to  sing  spirituals  in  order  to  secure 
financial  contributions.  Toward  this  end 
intelligent  men  and  women  are  asked 
to  sing  lines  like  these  as  an  evidence 
of   their  learning  and   culture: 

"Everybody    talks    'bout    heaven    ain't 

goin'   there." 
"I    got    shoes." 

"In    dat    great    gittin'    up    mawnin'." 
"De   ole    Ark's    amoverin'." 
"I    ain'    goin'    to   study    war    no    mo'." 
"Han'    me    down    yo'    silver  -trumpet, 

Gabriel." 
"When  I  git  up  to  de  Kingdom." 
"I    hope   I    may    join    de    band." 
"Play   on   yo'   harp.   Little   David. " 
Students  who,  through   four  years,   are 
learning  to   know  what  is  choice  in   En- 
glish,   what    is    true    in    science,    what    is 
fine    in    manners,    and    what    is    best    in 
self    expression,    are    asked    to    stand    in 
front  of  white  entertainment  seekers  and 
sing: 
"Goin'    to    moan,    moan,    moan,    moan, 

moan  to  my  Lord." 
"Goin'  to  be  red,  red,  red,  ready.  Lord, 

ready   for   my   Lord," 
And   this: 
"I   gotta   keep  a-prayin'    both   day   and 

night   to  pas'    my  tremblin'   mjnd." 
Spirituals    may    belong    in    a    religious 
or  on  a  concert  sUge.  but  it  takes  queer 
•reasoning    to    place    them    in    an    inter- ( 
racial    gathering.  —  FroM    the    Baltimorej

Week  of  December  28,  1934 


A   LESSON   FROM   TENNESSEE 

Last  week  saw  the  enactment  of  a 
drama  which  should  serve  'both  as  au 
object  for  our  gratitude  and  a  call  to 
arms. 

In  Tennessee,  the  intelligent  Governor 
called  out  the  State  Militia  when  an  at- 
tempt was  made  by  an  infuriated  mob  to 

..stonn  the  jail  and  lynch  a  Negro  held 
^hcre  on  a  charge  of  rape.  The  militia 
h«d  some  difficulty  in  breaking  up  the 
mob  and  frustrating  the  attempted  lynch- 
ing. But  there  was  never  any  possibility 
of  their  failing  except  through  their  own 
desire.  There  was  a  large  reserve  of  Na- 
tional Guardsmen  who  were  not  called 
out  because  they  were  not  needed.  Any 
military  observer  can  tell  you  that  .1 
■man  number  of  trained  troops  can  over- 
come many  times  tTieir  own  number  in 
any  disorganized  mob.  The  outcome  was 
a  aot  surprising  demonstration  of  the 
Cnrces  of  tlie  law  functioning  as  they 
iMKtuld. 

In  Congress,  this  next  session,  an  at- 
temiit  nill  be  made  to  pass  the  Costigan 
Wagner  Anti  L^mching  Bill.  This  bill  is  of 
fftai  ^{tortance  to  every  Negro  in  Amer- 

illS^  If  it  is  |>assed  it  will  make  possible 

,'tte  extension  of  the  same  protection  that 
adtAB  in  Tennessee  now,  to  all  the  op- 
pressed thousands  of  your  relatives  and 
friends    throughout    the    south    who    live 

.today  with  the  dull  horror  of  the  proba- 
bility <of  being  lynched  a  constant  part  of 
thdiT' thoughts. 

la   another    part   of   this    paper   is   a 

W»t  .of  this   bill.    Place   yourself    in   the 

,    of    the    average    Negro    "down 

■^MM^,"  today.  Then  read  the  copy  of  the 

m. 

It    will    help    you    lo    realize    what    it 
eUM  to  them.   And  to  you. 
We    cannot    too    strongly    urge    your 
M^oit   of    the    passage    of    this    bill    in 
way  within  your  power.

^Uv.. Year's  Day  includes  in  the  ritual 
w  etfebration  the  astonishing  marriage 
)te  abandonment  with  the   phil- 
of  a  stoic.  We  .qpend  the  night  be- 
>New    Years    in    collecting   the    most 
,  complete  and  colossal  binge  our 
books  or  our   friends    can    provide. 
We  rise  on  New   Years  Day  to  sol- 
>^«ar  that  thereafter  we  shall  not, 
P9i4tively,   longer   practice   the    fol- 

id  habits: 

ly    those    who    have    awakened    to 

<me   of    "morning    after"    heads 

onto    his    neck    can    appreciate

ad- 


miration that  was  earned  by  Nero  and  by 
the  emiforers  who  followed  the  family  of 
Anton^u^5,  can  ever  be  gained  by  part-time 
work.  Such  a  reputation  is  a  life  work  in 
itself,  and  a  testimonial  to  concentration. 

Anyone  who  wishes  to  know  real  vice 
must  give  all  his  time  to  it. 

The  opposite  is  also  true.  If  our  lives 
are  made  so  full  of  other  concerns  that  it 
cannot  contemplate  some  recently  gone- 
bad  habit  you  need  have  little  fear  that 
It  v.'ill  return.  Mark  Twain  put  it  in  an- 
other way  when  he  said  that  the  problem 
is  not  to  give  up  the  act  of  smoking  but 
to  keep  the  mind  -from  dwelling  tm  the 
desire  for  tobacco. 

The  matter  of  weak  and  >  strong  wills 
is  the  victim  of  mifch  false  opinion.  Weak- 
willed  pereons,  so-calle<l,  may  not  be 
weak-wijled  at  all.  They  may  have  the 
bad  habits  of  indecision,  procrastination 
and  laziness  but  that  does  not  mean  that 
they  were  constantly  offered  the  oppor- 
tunity of  dependence,  parasitism  or  some 
of  its  interesting  and  pleasant  companion- 
vices  through  the  accident  of  environment. 
If  those  persons  were  brought  up  in  an 
atmosphere  of  independence  and  of  hard 
work,  we* would  say  of  them  that  they  are 
strong-willed,  simply  because  they  have 
the  habit  of  decision,  promptness  and  la- 
bor. A  man  who  leads  a  parasite  life  may 
be  exercising  as  strong  a  power-of-will  as 
his  opposite.  He  ma^  be  as  determined 
and  as  careful  to  keep  other  people  work- 
ing for  him  and  to  avoid  working  himself 
as  the  other  man  is  in  achieving  inde- 
jwndence.  They  only  differ  in  their  choice 
of  habits  of  life. 

Try,  this  year,  swearing  onto  some 
good  habits  rather  than  swearing  off  bad 
ones. 

Try  making  the  resolution  that  you 
will  expand  your  life  to  include  community 
interests,  helpfulness  to  others,  a  job  that 
has  some  definite  goal,  a  course  in  educa- 
tion of  some  sort;  the  things,  in  other 
words  that  will  lead  you  to  become  the 
sort  of  f)erson  you  want  to  be.  Once  you 
get  into  the  activity  of  such  a  life,  you 
needn't  worry  about  bad-habits,  or  weak- 
ness of  will.  You  will  be  too  busy  for  bad 
habits,  weak  will  or  even  the  contempla- 
tion of  their  non-existence. 

THE 'old   YEAR 

Looking  back  on  the  year  just  past 
brings  to  mind  such  a  confusion  of  mem- 
ories that  it  becomes  difficult  to  isolate 
any  particular  one  or  group  and  consider 
it  alone.  It  would  be  futile  to  attempt  a 
classification  of  these  thi-ee-hundred-odd 
days  and  call  them  progress  or  retro- 
gression. That  will  never  be  known  by  any 
living  man.  A  hundred  years  from  now 
some  historian  will  give  these  years  a 
name  that  may  be  a  true  evaluation.  We 
do  not  know  what  that  name  shall  be.  A 
working  name  might  be  "The  age  of  con- 
fusion." 

We  think  that  that  historian,  whoever- 
he  may  be,  will  find  two  events  in  this 
year's  history  of  America  important 
enough  to  remember.  One  is  very  vivid  to 
us  because  San  Francisco  was  the  thea- 
ter for  the  action.  The  General  Strike 
was  far  more  important  in  its  symbolism 
than  it  was  as  an  act.  And  the  General 
Strike  is  far  from  over. 

The  second  important  happening  was 
an  end  rather  than  a  beginning.  The  shift 
in  the  habits  of  thought  of  the  masses  in 
Apierica  has  been  in  action  for  years.  It 
quickened  its  pace  and  achieved  more 
positive  direction  with  the  beginning  of 
the  depression.  During  the  last  few  years 
the  die-hard  conservatives  have  been 
fighting  a  hopeless  battle.  But  they  never 
grounded  their  arms  and  called  an  end 
to  the  struggle  until  this  last  year. 

We  can  imagine  the  historian-to-be 
coming  across  this  item  in  some  old  musty 
book;  recorded  not  many  pages  after  the 
copy  of  the  treaty  of  Versailles: 

"In  December,  1934,  the  leaders  of  the 
RepubUc^n  party,  the  last  major  conserva- 
tive group  in  America,  gathered  the  tat- 
tered and  depleted  remnants  of  their 
forces  in  New  York.  .  .  . 

Said  General  Nye:  "The  Party's  fu- 
ture must  be  that  of  liberalism.  .  .  .  The 
Party  need  not  become  a  party  of  oppo- 
sition to  wealth  as  such,. hut  it  must  be- 
come a  |iarty  willin  gto  direct  wealth  and 
a  profit  system  into  paths  which  give 
larger  recognition  to  those  who  create 
it.    ...    "  , 

Said  General  Borah:  "Wc  are  going  to 
the  left  as  sure  as  I  am  alive."

pleted our  quota  for  the  year  of 
1935.    and    for    that    wc    are    to    rc- 

!  ceive  a  nalionHl  cUation  "Distin- 
guished Service  Certificate',  to  be 
presented  to  the  post  at  the  next 
department  convention.  National 
Commander  Frank  Uelgrano  wrote 
the  po.st  a  personal  letter  thank- 
ing   it    for    its    achievements. 

I      The      following      members      were 
present    nt    the    banquet   given    for 
the    National    Commander,    Frank 
Bclgrano,     at      the      Palace      Hotel 
I  Saturday     night    .December    22nd: 
;  Po.st  Commander  Chauncey  Roane 
,  Junior     Past     Commander     Roxber 
I  Chambers,    Post    Chaplain    George 
White,     Assitant      Service      Officer 
,  Henry  Peterson,   Chairman    of    Re- 
ligious   activities    Bobby    Williams, 
and     Past    Second    Vice    Comman- 
1  der    Dock    Buckner.    J    have    talked 
I  with     the     Post     commander     and 
he  tells  me  the   following  informa- 
tion:   There    was    an    excellent    en- 
tertainment   that    could    be    second 
to     none.     The     program     was     so 
Hong    that    the    speaker,    ur    rather 
the     master     of    ceremonies,    could 
only    call    on     the     post     that     the 
National    Commander    is    a    mem- 
ber    of     Galileo     Post.     This     was 
not    an    oversight,    but    because    of 
the    length    of    the    program. 

Most  of  you  know  what  a  re- 
ception was  accorded  Frank  Bel- 
grano  at  the  Ferry  Building,  and 
I  want  all  of  you  to  know  that 
Wall  Post  was  given  the  bc.>"l 
assignment  that  could  be  given 
for  a  national  figure,  and  that 
was  the  assignment  of  being  body 
guard. 

At  our  last  meeting  night  the 
commander  gave  the  legion  obli- 
gation to  two  of  our  members 
who  had  not  received  th«  oath 
of  a  legionaire  Comrades  Frank 
Conway,  who  is  oneof  the  mem- 
bers of  the  Post  Orchestra,  and 
Comrade    Thomas    Reese. 

Comrade  Bates  Pope  has  the 
post  so  much  at  heart  that  he 
was  forced  to  break  out  in  a 
rash  and  open  his  heart  to  stimu- 
late the  meeting  by  giving  the 
post  a  collation,  anu  this  was  not 
.iskcd  of  him.  You  can  see  hovir 
wc  of  the  Legion  feel  about  our 
organization.  We  were  fortunate 
enough  to  have  present  the  fol- 
lowing visitors:  Comrad<<  "Bill" 
Hanger,  a  member  of  John  R. 
Lynch  Camp,,  No  75,  Spanish  War 
Veterans:  Mr.  William  Moore  and 
Mr.  Washington.  Neither  of  the 
latter  two  were  eligible  to  join 
the  legion,  but  they  were  welcome 
and  you  will  be  too  if  you  should 
visit     us. 

The  po.st  has  been  notified  that 
there  are  several  members  of  ^hc 
race  who  are  inmates  of  the  hos- 
pital. We  as  a  post  have  been  re- 
quested to  visit  these  men  while 
they  are  in  the  hospital.  Wall 
Post  is  not  at  all  fielfish.  We 
would  like  tohuve  all  veterans, 
no  matter  of  what  organization, 
visit    these    comrades. 

POSTSCRIPT;  Altho  the  Post 
has  done  little  or  nothing  to 
bring  cheer  to  the  community  this 
year,  as  a  post  we  hopo  that  the 
next  year  will  find  us  doing 
great  things  to  matte  somebody 
happy.  Comrade  Pope  spoke  on 
this  matter  at  the  last  meeting 
We  have  .several  boxes  of  candy 
to  give  to  the  children  of  Bethel, 
ZIon,   and  Third   Baptist   churches.

ring  victories  at  Ma'son  Square 
Garden,  but  il  look  James  J. 
Johnston  to  really  set  the  fans 
(ti.Houssing  championship  ubilitie:< 
uf  the  congenial  adopted  son  of 
California.  Johnston  you  know,  i.i 
the  big  matchmaker  at  the  Gitr- 
don,  and  his  statements  are  hand- 
led with  occuracy  by  the  sports 
scribes.  So,  the  news  hounds 
dashed  for  a  phune  Inst  Monday 
when  Johnston  boldly  forcciisl

"Bob  Olin  will  have  his  fare 
and  liKbtheavywcighl  e  r  o  w  n 
lifted  the  first  time  he  meets 
John  Henry  Lewis  in  a  title

After  that,  you  undoubtedly  are 
not  surprised  that  John  Henry's 
slock  skyrocketed  u|).  The  new- 
writers  believe  the  Madison 
Square  bosses  prediction  and  from 
I  indications,    so    does    Bob    Olin. 

Olin,  after  much  pro  and  con. 
h.'is  finally  consented  to  battle  the

in  the  Garden  ring  ut  New  York

But  if  there  is  to  be  any  "lifting  ' 
done  that  evening,  it  will  be  only 
the  champion's  face,  for  he  re- 
fused to  meet  John  Henry  al  this

Week  of  January  4,   1935 


THE   TOWNSBND    BILL 

THE  LATEST  ECONOMIC  MOSES 
tb  appear  in  California,  Dr.  Townsend,  is 
the  proud  father  of  one  of  the  simplest 
jSlans  for  curing  all  our  ills  yet  devised. 
It  would  seem  that  Dr.  Townsend  has 
read  all  the  introductory  chapters  of  sev- 
eral books  on  money,  and  has  leaped  to 
the  obvious  conclusion  of  all  the  authors 
that  it  is  velocity  rather  than  quantity 
that  makes  for  good  or  bad  times.  When 
money  is  moving  rapidly,  passing  from 
band  to  hand,  it  makes  for  good  times. 
When  money  is  lying  idle  in  the  banks 
and  in  private  safes,  it  makes  for  bad 
times.  This  obvious  truth,  entirely  simple 
as  it  is,  was  seized  on  by  Dr.  Townsend 
aa  the  core  and  whole  of  the  economic 
situation.  The  solution  he  offers  is  en- 
tirely his  own.  .  ^<<M 
^  Dr.  Townsend  proposes  to  retire  ev- 
eryone over  sixty  years  of  age  on  a  pen- 
sion of  $200  a  month,  subject  to  the  fol- 
lowing conditions:  (1)  that  the  person 
not  be  an  habitual  criminal;  (2)  that  the 
person  ceases  working  for  money;  (3) 
that  the  person  spend  the  entire  sum 
within  the  same  month  of  receiving  it; 
and  (4)  that  he  spend  it  within  the  Unit- 
ed States. 

The  money  with  which  to  pay  thest 
pensions  is  to  be  obtained  thru  a  sales 
tax.  This  is  supposed  to  supply  a  revolv- 
"  ihg'  fund.  The  money  given  out  in  pcn- 
MdOB  is  immediately  spent  and  taken  in 
again  by  the  tax,  etc.,  etc.,  etc. 

Dr.  Townsend  advances  that  this  add- 
ed Bup[4y  of  money  is  just  what  the 
country  needs  to  cure  it  of  the  depression. 
1%^  trouble  seems  to  be  that  the  United 
States  has  unlimited  ability  to  produce, 
and  huge  stores  of  the  mfeans  of  produc- 
tion which  are  being  choked  off  by  frozen 
ttoney.  With  this  age-old  "choke",  the 
Machinery  of  business  will  spring  to  Ufe 
purr  as  of  old.  Blue  skies  will  shine  down. 
AtHi  the  land  will  be  blessed  with  happi- 

■  '  •    •    • 

DR.  TOWNSENDS  VERY  PRETTY 
picture  is  clouded  by  the  fact  that  his 
plan  fails  to  consider  one  fact:  the  source 
df  the  money  to  pay  the  pensions. 

A  sales  tax  levied  on  the  whole  peo- 
ple of  sufficient  amount  to  yield  what 
his  plan  requires  would,  while  putting  the 
old  folks  in  a  dizzy  ficl  dof  clover,  place 
On  the  shoulders  of  the  already  over-bur- 
flened  tax-payers  a  new  load  that  would 
work  incalculable  hardship  and  damage 
te  their  lives,  and  would  certainly  not 
loBg  be  tolerated  by  the  tax-payers  them- 
aelVes. 

Assuming  that  there  are  ten  million 
people  in  the  United  States  eligible  to  re- 
eelve  the  pension,  at  $2,400  a  year.  The 
total  tax  revenue  necessary  to  float  such 
an  expenditure  would  be  $24,000,000,000. 
TJUki  would  mean  that  a  sales  tax  of 
somewhere  in  the  neighborhood  of  100 
Jer  cent  would  have  to  be  levied. 

If  the  people  would  stand  for  this — 
tkho  they  wouldn't — it  would  mean  that 
tmiit  present  salary  would  purchase  just 
JuK  of  what  it  does  now.  It  would  be 
'41^  to  go  into  details  of  what  hardship 
Jtfft  would  impose  on  the  average  citizen. 
■^*^^  The  effect  of  this  decline  in  the 
-MBOunt  spent  would,  of  course,  create  a 
^SSS^ponding  decrease  in  the  total  in- 
ISSSk*  tr^m  the  sales-tax  source.  So  that, 
.ilKwt^  end,   the   thing  would  fall   of   its 

)»■.•<•-  •     •     • 

^^miaiE  CAN  BE  NO  DOUBT  THAT 
should  be  done  for  the  thou- 
l<of  oM  people  who  have  been  thrown 
work    during    the    depression    to   I 


swell  our  A  relief  lines.  America  needs  a 
national  old  age  iirnsion  of  some  sort. 
JVn.l  th.'il  is  one  of  the  things  President 
Hooaevrit  will  t.'iko  up  iii.  the  near  future. 

However,  any  plan  that  culls  for  a 
sales  tax  to  finance  It  is  certainly  unfair. 
It  works  too  great  a  hardship  on  those 
in  the  lower  brackets  of  income.  And  it 
should  be  remembered  that  this  effect 
is  especially  direct  on  the  Negro. 

Certainly  something  should  be  done 
to  correct  the  present  condition,  in  which 
wc  leave  the  old  people.  The  Townsend 
plan  is  too  absurd  to  merit  consideration 
— (jr  even  mention,  except  for  the  fact 
that  jKHiple  today  have  reached  a  point 
of  such  hopeless  desperation  in  consider- 
ing their  economic  future  that  they  are 
inclined  to  grasp  at  straws,  no  matter 
whether  they  are  faulty  economics,  Alice- 
in-Wonderland  politics,  or  other  chimers. 
This  is  one  of  them  and  should  be  con- 
sidered as  such.

ETHIOPIA    VERSUS    ITALY 

THE  LEAGUE  OF  NATIONS  IS  BE- 
ing  asked  to  rule  in  connection  with  the 
alleged  attempt  on  the  part  of  Italian 
troops  to  invade  and  take  over  territory 
claimed  by  Abyssinia  to  have  been  given 
her  in  accordance  with  the  border-line 
agreements  set  forth  in  the  Treaty  of 
Versailles. 

Although  we  cannot  now  know  cer- 
tainly that  Italy  is  the  aggressor  in  this 
matter,  we  should  be  given  that  know- 
ledge soon.  And  once  it  is  decided,  for 
certain  it  should  produce  some  interesting 
reading,  not  for  the  importance  of  the 
matter  in  itself,  but  in  the  opportunity  it 
will  offer  the  reading  public  to  fix  a 
measure  for  that  illusion  of  honor  among 
nations. 

Not  so  long  ago,  Japan  took  over 
Manchuria  and  received  the  condemna- 
tion of  the  world.  This  world  at  that  time 
was  without  plans  for  its  own  border-in- 
crease, so  it  could  shout  honor  and  ethics 
in  rich  repetition  in  all  the  presses  of  the 
world.  One  of  the  leading  causes  of  the 
lack  of  opportunity  or  desire  for  their 
own  expansion  on  the  part  of  the  greater 
nations  at  this  time  lies  in  the  fact  that 
there  is  so  very  little  of  the  world  of 
economic  value  which  remains  not  gobbled 
up  already  by  the  powers,  that  their  sur- 
cease is  one  of  lack  of  opportunity  rather 
than  of  desire. 

Italy,  if  she  is  the  guilty  party,  is 
only  following  out  her  (MussoUni's)  oft- 
repeated  threat  to  re-make  history  and 
build  again  the  old  Roman  Empire.  Rome, 
it  will  be  remembered,  held  under  her 
sway  at  one  time,  all  of  Northern  Africa, 
among  other  places.  Italy's  present  hold- 
ings in  the  dark  continent  cannot  com- 
pare with  the  real  estate  of  the  old  Ro- 
man Empire. 

If  Italy  carries  out  her  conquest,  we 

wonder  if  the  powers  will  look  upon  her 

act    with    the    same    shocked    disapproval 

that    they    felt   when    they    observed    the 

httle   Brown   Men   kidnapping   Manchuria.

TRAINING  DOMESTICS 

Whne  Harlem's  district  superintendent 
of  schools,  Dr.  'Oswald  Schlockow,  pro- 
posed in  a  recent  report  that  curriculum 
be  adapted  to  the  pupil  with  consideration 
for  his  social  and  economic  prospects, 
there  were  a  few  "broad-minded"  people 
m  the  community  who  agreed  with  him 
heartily  and  scouted  the  suggestion  that 
special  education  for  Negroes  was  in  the 
offing. 

The  Amsterdam  News  was  prompt  in 
attacking  Dr.   Schlockow's  proposals. 

The  fact  that  we  were  not  wholly 
wrong,  despite  Dr.  Schlockow's  denials,  is 
brought  out  in  relief  by  a  new  incident. 
r.a.3t  week  a  group  of  Harlem  parents 
charged  that  Eugenie  Chinnock,  principal 
of  Junior  High  School  136,  Edgecombe 
Avenue  and  136th  Street,  is  attempting  to 
force  scores  of  pupils  into  courses  de- 
signed for  domestics  and  house  servants 
against  the  wishes  of  their  parents. 

The  principal  has  sent  the  following 
form  letter  to  numerous  parents: 

"The  teachers  are  always  gratified 
when  the  parents'  choice  of  course  is  one 
which  can  be  approved  by  the  school. 
Sometimes,  however,  an  anal}^is  of  the 
pupil's  abiUties  and  a  study  of  the  pupil's 
record  disclose  the  fact  that  an  unwise 
choice  has  been  made.  In  such  a  case  it  is 
necessary  for  the  principal  to  assign  the 
girl  individually. 

"In  accordance  with  this  procedure 
'sic)  it  is  necessary  for  me  to  place  your 

daughter,    ,    in    the    Practical    Arts 

Course  next  term.  Her  progress  will  be 
carefully  watched  and  studieil.  This  course 
leads  to  a  junior  high  diploma,  which  will 
entitle  her  to  entrance  into  an  accredited 
senior  high  school.  Her  academic  work 
will  be  given  in  25  periods  each  week, 
A'hile  her  practical  arts  will  be  given  only 
10  iHjriods."  .  .  .  — N.  Y.  Amsterdam  News

been     important     factors    in     Wil- 
liams' success. 

Mr.  Je.sse  W.  Payne,  popular 
Berkeley  man,  has  been  elevated 
to  the  position  of  assistant  super- 
intendent of  the  Oakland  district. 
Payne  first  entered  Golden  State 
service  about  four  years  ago.  He 
has  been  a  faithful,  loyal  repre- 
sentative, and  during  the  past 
year  he  took  special  train'.ng  in 
preparation  for  assuming  greater 
responsibilities.  Mr.  Payne  is  very

litical   affairs    in    this    community 


ed  by  the  accusation  of  a  Negro 
of  an  outrage  on  a  young  white 
girl. 

The  speedy  action  of  the  law— 
where  there  is  a  chance  for  It— In 
cases  of  this  kind,  where  a  Negro 
is  Involved,  was  put  in  progress.  A 
mistrial  was  declared.  The  ma- 
chine of  Justice  was  too  slow,  and 
the  irate  hoodlums  were  too  rest- 
less to  await  other  legal  action. 
Hud  they  waited,  their  desire  for 
the  death  of  the  Negro  would 
have  been  promptly  fulfilled  by 
the  arm  of  the  law  through  south- 
ern Justice  us  far  ns  Negroes  en- 
joy it. 

In  dealing  with  Negroes  in 
southern  courts,  juries  are  a  bit 
reluctant  about  giving  them  jus- 
tice. Whether  guilty  or  not  guilty, 
the  Negro  knows  the  consequence 
in  the  hands  of  a  Jury  whose 
opinions  are  set  —  based  upon 
"southern  chivalry"— no  justice  for 
Negroes. 

It  IS  too  bad  that  we  have  in 
these  United  States  an  eleman* 
that  is  the  exponent  of  the  high- 
est civilization  in  the  land  that 
will  wantonly,  baselessly  and  ma-

42  MILLION  ASK  F.  0.

Swinging  into  action  with  « 
carefully  planned  nationwide  cnra- 
palgn  to  secur*  support  of  th« 
Costigan-Wagner  A  n  t  i-LyArhInf 
bill  in  the  present  ssssfon  of 
Congress,  the  N.A.A.C.P.  com- 
menced, this  week,  the  circulation 
of  thousands  of  petlMons  which 
the  (Dvemors  of  several  states, 
mayors  of  large  cities,  chureh- 
men,  editors,  businefsmen,  and 
others  are  being  asked  to  sign. 

The  document,  addressed  to  the 
President  will  contala  the  signa- 
tures of  leaders  of  different  or- 
ganisations and  grotips,  totalling 
forty-two  million  members,  which 
are  actively  supporting  the   bill 

Designed  to  leave  the  Nation- 
al Oov«mment  no  doubt  as  to 
the  widespread  support  this  bill 
hnjt  cnmod  from  both  rsces.  i he- 
petition    reads    as    foT^iws: 


or    McAllister    Interfered    in    their 
nefarious    orgy    with    ths    "crack" 
I  of   firearms. 

■  I  consider  Governor  McAllister 
I  the  south's  first  law-enforcement 
I  citizen,  and  he  has  set  a  precedent 
I  unknown  to  the  south,  where 
leach  year  the  merciless  lynchers 
I  reap  the  toll  of  helpless  ond  un- 
;  protected   Negroes. 

Of  course.  Governor  McAllister 
will  be  dead  politically  so  far  as 
the  south  and  Tennessee  are  con- 
cerned; but  he  will  ever  live  in 
the  memories  of  fair,  upright  and 
lawabidlng  white  citizens  through- 
out the  south  and  the  thousands 
of  Negroes  in  the  "black  belt," 
who  are  Just  above  chattels,  and 
ore  the  victims  of  the  tyranny  of 
some    southerners. 

There  are  causes  for  the  racial 
outbursts  and  antipathies  in  the 
south. 

Most  poor  whites  and  many  Ne- 
groes live  In  abject  poverty.  Their

I  he  shrewd  southern  politician 
arouses  the  ire  of  the  poor  whites 
with  the  Indomitable  race  ques- 
tion a  virile  propaganda  that 
does  no  little  damage.  In  the 
meantime  they  are  wreaking  an 
injustice  upon  ths  most  peaceful 
citizen  (the  Negro)  in  the  United 
States.

ans "cut  the  pie,"  and  usually

Ol.ve  the  south  better  rural 
schools  for  whites  and  Negroes; 
promote  racial  understanding;  ed- 
ucate the  masses  to  respect  the 
laws;  deal  out  justice  to  all  races 
alike,  and  conditions  will  be 
changed  for  the  better. 

I  fervently  congratulate  the  ed- 
itor of  The  Star  In  his  policy, 
commenting  on  mobs  and  equal 
justice  in  his  editorial  columns.  I

«Bd  world.  The  recent  shameless 
abduction  of  a  prisoner,  and 
'transportation  across  the  State 
tine  from  Alabama  to  F*1orida  to 
be  lynched,  with  the  crime  adver- 
tised throughout  the  nation  twelve 
.kours  In  advance,  is  n  notorious 
example  of  the  complete  break- 
down of  the  machinery  of  jus- 
tice which  has  grown  out  of  the 
lynching  evil.  Since  1882,  n,068 
buman  beings  have  been  lynched 
In  the  United  States,  with  less 
than  a  dozen  convictions;  in  each 
of  these  cases  only  nominal  pri- 
son terms  were  given  the  lynch- 
ers. 

"During  1934  the  total  of  lynch- 
^Ings  reached  the  alarming  num- 
ber of  18.  While  the  Costigan- 
Wagner  Anti-Lynching  bill  was 
pending  in  the  Congress^  thero 
was  a  complete  cessation  of  lyn- 
chlngs  for  a  period  of  six  months 
but  since  June,  when  Congress 
adjourned  without  voting  on  the 
Co8tige(n-  Wagner  bill,  sixteen 
mob  murders  have  taken  place. 

"We,  the  undersigned,  urge 
resp«(?tfully  that  you  as  Presi- 
dent of  the  United  States  in  your 
opening  address  to  Congress  place

over  that  point  We're  convinced 
like  the  Negro  boy  asked  which 
State  in  the  Union  was  be.st  for 
Negroes,  that  '  dey  ain't  none  oh

Certainly  it  i.<i  true  that  Negro

songs, suffers  from  the  repres-

"Black  Menace"  who  trailed  a  heavyweight  champ  some 
years  ago — but  in  vain.  That  champ  was  JACK  DEMP- 
SEY (right)  and  the  challenger  was  HARRY  \ViU..S 
(left).  S|K)rt  pages  carried  news  that  a  match  had  l>eeii 
made  between  Denipse_>  and  Wills  and  that  contracts  had 
been  signetl.  However,  shortI.\-  :ifter  do|ie  concerning  the 
bout  disap|)eared  as  suddenly  as  it  appeared.  It  was  said 
that  the  promoter  had  been  jailed  for  embezzlement — 
many  reports  were  given  out  to  the  public — it  was 
EVEN  DENIED  IN  SOME  tJlTARTERS  THAT  THE 
FIGHTERS  HAD  EVER  SIGNED  A  CONTRACT.  A  few 
weeks  ago  I  promised  I  woulil  show  you  the  proof  on  the

Week  of  January  11,  1935 


THE  ROOT  OF  TH1&  EVIL 

Professor  Paul  Radin  of  the  Univers- 
ity of  California,  addressing  the  members 
of  an  Oakland  Sunday  Forum,  said  that 
the  race  problem  lies  in  economics. 

He  explained  that  race  prejudice  only 
exists  in  those  countries  where  exploita- 
tion of  a  minority  group  can  be  made  a 
source  of  financial  profit.  As  an  example 
of  this  fact  he  pointed  out  that  Russia, 
prior  to  the  revolution,  practiced  some  of 
the  most,  bitter  oppression  on  its  minority 
races  that  the  world  has  known.  In  the 
case  of  Russia,  the  oppression  was  direct- 
ed principally  against  the  Jews.  The 
pogroms,  imder  the  Cossacks,  were  a 
world  wide  disgrace  to  that  country.  To- 
day there  is  no  longer  any  oppression  in 
RoMia,  because  the  economic  setup  of 
that  country  is  such  that  it  has  eliminat- 
ed the  pront  from  such  practices. 
.  Many  people  will  not  agree  with  Dr. 
I^Adin's  opinion  concerning  prejudice.  But 
no  one,  we  feel  sure,  can  but  acknowl- 
edge that  his  approach  to  the  problem  is 
far  more  sound  than  that  of  the  average 
"interpreter." 

Too  many  Negroes  spend  their  entire 
life  attacking  the  results  of  prejudice,  and 
never  touch  the  cause.  They  are  satisfied 
to  spend  their  time  forcing  restaurant 
owners  to  serve  them,  theaters  to  allow 
them  to  sit  down  stairs,  and  beer-hall 
proprietors  to  allow  them  to  get  djmnk 
on  the  premises,  "regardless  of  race." 

We  do  not  mean  to  imply  that  this  is 
•not  important  work.  But  far  more  lasting 
results  would  probably  attain  were  we  to 
devote  most  of  our  energies  to  a  correc- 
tion of  the  causes  rather  than  an  elimina- 
tion of  the  results.  It  would  be  better  to 
plug  the  leaks  in  a  boat  rather  than 
spend  one's  hfe  in  bailing. 

What  will  finally  be  decided  as  the 
root  cause  of  prejudice  we  would  hesitate 
to  conjecture.  But  of  this  we  may  be  quite 
certain:  no  real  lasting  solution  wlil  ever 
be  attained  until  we  discover  the  root 
cause  and  direct  the  main  force  of  our  at- 
tack toward  its  extirpation.

A  SOCIOLOGIST  LOOKS  AT  CASTE 

Professor  Charies  S.  Johnson,  in  his 
recent  book, '''Shadows  of  the  Plantation" 
gives  us  another  view  of  the  serpent, 
prejudice: 

,',It  has  been  observed  that  as  long  as 
thfefr  social  institutions  are  functioning 
normally,  primitive  peoples  ordinarily  ex- 
h^  and  extraordinary  zest  in  the  lifo 
tiffy  lead,  even  when  that  life,  like  that 
of  tbe  Eskimo  in  the  frozen  north  or  the 
jipaim  in  the  steaming  forests  of  Central 
^Msa,  seems  to  be  one  of  consent  pri- 
vijUpn  and  hardship. 

;.  On  the  other  hand,  when  some  catas- 
tjHlfiie  occurs  which  undermines  the  tra- 
"*"*     '   •tructure   of    their    society,    they 
loae  their  natural  lust  for  life, 
>tlMt  euphoria  which  enabled  them  to 
the  hardships  of  thei   rprimitive 
frequently   deserts    them.    That 
may   be,    and    frequently    is, 
advent  of  a  more  highly  civ- 
people   intent   upon   their   improve- 
UkI   uplift    by   incorporating   them 
a  more  highly   organized   industrial 

•uch    circumstances,    a    people 

^   so   completely    obsessed    by    a 

"  tl|eir  own  inferiority  that  they 

dMirs  to  live  as  a  people,  and 


if  they  live  as  individuals,  they  will  prefer 
to  identify  themselves  as  far  as  they 
are  permitted  to  do  so,  with  the  invading 
or  dominant   people. 

It  is  in  some  such  way  as  this  I.  E.  by 
the  incorporation  of  defeated  or  merely 
disheartened  people  into  some  larger  and 
more  complex  social  unit  that  castes  are 

formed.

SHOULD  LVNCHINO  GO  ON  THE  AIJl 

Much  indignation  was  expressed  by 
various  members  of  the  listening  public 
over  the  candid  brutality  they  found  in  a 
Sunday  evening  broadcast  recently  in 
which  the  actors  "put  on"  a  lynching,  as 
part  of  a  dramatization  of  the  love  prob- 
lem of  someone  or  other. 

The  broadcast  was  criticized  on  the 
basis  of  "taste."  It  was  said  that  the 
lynching  was  so  real  and  so  brutal  that 
various  terrible  sensations  took  command 
of  the  listeners.  Some  of  them  were 
"shocked."  Some  of  them,  we  suppose, 
fainted  and  fell  out  of  bed.  So  lynching 
broadcasts  are  bad. 

We  can't  hold  with  them  in  that  opin- 
ion. Right  now,  nothing  is  more  important 
tha  nthat  the  people  of  the  United  States 
should  be  fully  acquainted  with  lynching 
in  all  its  horror.  The  Costigan-Wagner 
anti-lynching  bill,  is  about  to  be  passed 
on  by  the  new  Congress.  The  more  pres- 
sure we  can  bring  to  bear  on  the  repre- 
sentatives, the  more  likely  we  will  be  to 
find  it  passed  on  favorably  by  that  body. 

The  people  who  would  have  such 
broadcasts  barred  from  the  air,  are  think- 
ing in  the  same  manner  as  those  who  feel 
that  any  unpleasant  social  truth  such  as 
prostitution,  should  be  ignored  because 
of  its  nature.  For  the  very  reason  of  its 
unpleasantness,  such  things  should  be 
discussed — and  corrected.  In  discussion  is 
the  one  sure  way  to  correction.  Uncle 
Tom's  Cabin  discussed,  and  very  apprecia- 
bly aided  in  correcting,  a  problem  of  its 
day. 

Probably  one  of  the  best  things  the 
N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  could  do  would  be  to  put 
on  a  dramatization  of  a  lynching  on  a 
national  hookup.  People  need  to  have  the 
tragedy  of  lynching  brought  to  their  at- 
tention as  often  and  as  emphatically  as 
possible.

THE  LAW  OF  UBERTY 

In  a  thoughtful  article  in  the  winter 
number  o  fthe  Yale  Review,  James  Trus- 
low  Adams  points  out  the  danger  of  in- 
sisting on  our  rights  while  neglecting  our 
duties.  As  all  moralists  maintain,  right 
and  duty  are  correlative.  Privilege  and  re- 
sponsibility exist  in  a  definite  ratio.  In  a 
rightly  ordered  state  of  things  the  man 
with  the  heaviest  responsibilities  is  like- 
wise the  man  with  the  most  numerous  and 
extensive  privileges. 

As  Mr.  Adams  lucidly  explains,  the 
trouble  with  us  Americans — and  with 
human  nature  generally — is  that  we  are 
over-insistent  on  our  rights  and  neglect- 
ful of  our  duties.  We  find  it  hard  to  agree 
with  Mussolini  that  "the  conception  of 
liberty  is  not  absolute.  ...  It  is  not  a 
gift:  it  is  a  conquest."  Give  me  all  I  want 
and  don't  ask  me  for  anything,  is  the 
practical  formula  whereby  many  of  us 
put  our  conception  of  Uberty  into  practice. 

—Brother  Leo,  in  the  Catholic  Monitor.

OTHER  PEOPLE'S  MONEY 

Harry  L.  Hopkins,  Relief  Administrat- 
or, said  recently  that  the  "costs  of  the 
depression  are  being  taken  out  of  the 
hides  of  children."  This  statement  is  based 
on  the  fact  that  out  of  12,945,000  persons 
receiving  relief  in  October,  1933,  5,250,000 
were  children.  But  there  is  another  as- 
pect of  this  that  is  worth  noting.  It  is 
that  the  bills  for  the  relief  of  these  child- 
ren. Last  week  the  government  borrowed 
$992,000,000  to  be  used  in  relief  work. 
The  bonds  on  which  this  sum  was  raised 
are  payable  in  1954.  The  children  of  1934 
will  be  the  taxpayers  of  1954,  and  so  they 
Or  thdr  great-great-grandchildren  are  ex- 
pected, in  1954  or  thereafter,  to  pay  for 
the  depression  of  1929  to  1934  et  seq. 
Since  1930  we  have  borrowed  $11,000,000,- 
000  to  support  the  depression.  This  vast 
sum  we  are  going  to  ask  our  children  and 
grandchildren  to  pay,  along  with  the  bil- 
lions we  borrowed  under  Coolidge  to  build 
our  roads,  our  palatial  apartment  houses, 
our  movie  cathedrals.  Is  it  not  time  to 
consider  calling  on  the  men  who  usurped 
too  large  a  share  of  the  income  of  the 
American  people  under  Coolidge  to  pay 
the  bills  of  the  depression  they  produced?

from  his  little  habitut  in  Western 
Europe  to  the  overlordship  of 
practically  the  whole  eurth.  Be- 
ginning with  about  the  year  1000, 
he  conquered  all  of  North  and 
South  America,  Africa,  Australia 
anil  u  large  part  of  Asia  and  dom- 
inated the  regions  which  he  did 
not  annex.  Moreover,  during  this 
period  of  expansion  the  white 
man  developed  a  civilization 
which  he  considered  superior  to 
that  of  men  of  any  other  color, 
despite  the  fact  that  ancient  civi- 
lization antedated  hia  own  by 
thousands  of  years.  While  the  av- 
t'lage  white  man  welcomed  peo- 
ple of  color  from  other  lands  into 
his  country,  admitted  them  to  his 
institutions  of  learning  and  even 
to  his  home,  he  resented  any  sug- 
gestions that  they  wcru  his  equals. 
WHITE  vs.  BEO,  VEIXOW, 
BLACK    AND    BROWN     MEN 

During  the  400  years  which 
elapsed  between  the  beginning  of 
the  period  of  expansion  and  the 
World  War,  the  white  man  al- 
most exterminated  the  red  muii, 
reduced  the  blacl<  man  to  slavery 
and  lorded  it  over  the  brown  and 
yellow  men.  At  the  opening  of 
the  Twentieth  century,  little  Jap- 
an v;as  the  only  nation  of  color 
that  did  not  live  in  the  sufferance 
of  the  white  man.  That  was  due 
to  the  avidity  with  which  Japan 
imitated  the  military  and  diplo- 
matic method.s  of  the  white  man. 
The  white  Mian  maintained  his 
superiority  by  force.  He  wn.s  en- 
abled to  do  thi.s  because  of  his 
linowledge  of  science  and  Us 
applications,  science  being  his 
chief  contribution  to  civilization. 
Moreover,  where  he  did  not  settle 
and  transplant  his  own  civiliza- 
tion as  he  did  in  the  Americas  and 
Australia,  he  exploited  other  peo- 
ples for  hLs  own  benefit,  as  in  In- 
dia and  Malays  and  to  a  certain 
extent  in  China.  In  developing  the 
resources  of  new  regions  he  trans- 
ferred hundreds  of  thousands  of 
men  of  color  from  their  home- 
lands and  put  them  to  work  for 
him  in  strange  regions  eitlifr  as 
peons  or  slaves.  In  developing 
the  resources  of  old  and  itettled 
regions  his  primary  object  was 
self-enrichment.  The  gains  to  the 
natives  which  undoubtedly  resul- 
ted were  a  by-product.  During 
these  centuries,  moreover,  he 
made  evident  his  faith  in  the  su- 
periority of  his  own  civilization 
by  sending  missionaries  into  the 
benighted  regions  to  convert  the 
inhabitant.')  to  a  belief  In  hU  way 
of    life. 

CHASINO    THE    DOLXAK 
TO    FOREIGN    SHORES 

The  19th  century,  after  the  fall 
of  Napoleon,  was  a  period  of 
comparative  peace  in  Europe.  The 
wars  that  broke  out  were  few 
and  of  short  duration.  The  white 
man  devoted  himself  to  develop- 
ing the  economic  and  social  rug- 
ime  Introduced  by  the  industrial 
revolution.  The  success  of  the 
new  factory  .system  required  raw 
materials  and  markets  that  could 
be  found  only  among  peoples  of 
other  colors,  and  the  resulting 
competition  between  white  men 
of  different  nationalities  to  secure 
them  and  the  methods  adopted 
were  often  little  calculated  to  in- 
crease the  colored   man's  morality. 

Moreover,  the  quick  develop- 
ment of  commerce  and  Industry 
and  the  rapidity  of  transporta- 
tion resulting  from  new  scientific 
discoveries  and  Inventions  caused 
a  large  increase  in  the  number  of 
white  men  settling  In  the  lands  of 
colored  peoples.  Many  of  these 
men,  relieved  of  the  restraints  of 
their  home  environments,  led  lives 
not  at  all  in  conformity  with  the 
precepts  of  the  white  mans  re- 
ligion as  expounded  by  his  mis- 
sionaries. The  same  ease  of  move- 
ment enabled  many  of  the  ablest 
and  most  intelligent  men  of  color 
to  visit  and  study  in  the  lands  of 
the  white  man.  What  they  saw  in 
the  way  of  poverty,  ignorance  and 


tliHl  "all  men  are  created  equal." 
The  ttcUons  of  the  white  man 
were  nowhere  in  accordance  with 
his  preaching,  for  although 
French,  German,  Dutch,  and  Bel- 
gians did  not  instruct  their  color- 
ed subjects  In  the  advanced  polit- 
ical principles  taught  by  the  An- 
glo-Saxons, their  missionaries  did 
teach  moral  religious  doctrines 
which  were  in  conformity  with 
the  conduct  of  their  fellow-coun- 
trymen in  the  'backward  re- 
gions." The  outrageous  methods 
of  the  European  powers  in  the 
last  decade  of  the  19th  century  in 
dividing  up  China  among  them- 
selves brought  to  a  head  the 
growing  resentment  in  that  coun- 
try against  the  white  man's  scorn

Moreover,    the   superiority   of    the  , 
white     man     had     hitherto     rested 
largely   upon   an   economic    founda-  i 
tion.    He    was    better    off    than    the 
colored    man    in    all    the    necessities 
and    luxuries   of    life.    But    the    wa:  ' 

reduced    many    while    men    to    the    KNKOItO.f)    t'llANtlK     Of

The  Boxer  Kebellion  was  really 
the  first  notice  to  the  white  man 
that  the  political  principle  upon 
which  his  own  life  was  founded— 
was  unknown  among  ihem.  The 
Japanese  was  the  only  exception. 
The  loyalty  of  the  Indian  had 
been  to  his  caste,  of  the  Moham- 
medan to  his  religion,  of  the 
Chinese  to  his  local  community. 
The  average  Chinese  was  seldom 
interested  in  what  took  place  In 
the  neighboring  province  and  nev- 
er conceived  of  China  as  an  en- 
tity. 

"EDUCATION"    THE 
ENTERING     WEDGE 

The  victory  of  the  Japanese 
over  the  Russians  in  1906.  the 
first  instance  in  modern  times  of 
the  defeat  of  a  nation  of  white 
men  by  a  nation  of  colored  men, 
had  profound  repercussion  ihro- 
out  all  lands  inhabited  by  so- 
called  "backward"  peoples.  Na- 
tionalism spread  among  them  like 
wildfire.  But,  it  was  different  na- 
tionalism from  that  of  the  West. 
Nationalism  in  the  West  is  ag- 
gressive; in  the  East  it  is  defen- 
sive. In  the  West  it  aims  at  ter- 
ritorial expansion  or  economic 
exploitation  or  cultural  superior- 
ity. In  the  East  it  aims  to  enable 
a  country  to  determine  its  own 
destiny,  to  retain  control  of  its 
economic  resources  for  its  own 
benefit  and  to  prevent  the  country 
from  being  placed  In  a  position 
of    International    inferiority. 

Nevertheless,  when  the  World 
War  broke  out.  the  supremacy 
of  the  white  man  was  unquestion- 
ed. He  expected  colored  people  to 
admit  It.  and  with  few  exceptions 
they  did  admit  It.  White  men 
had  engaged  in  fierce  competition 
among  themselves  for  supremacy 
in  areas  which  would  provide 
them  with  raw  materials  and 
markets,  but  they  presented  a 
united  front  against  the  colored 
man.  joined  together  as  they 
were  by  a  cohesive  power  of  race 
superiority. 

The  World  War  spelled  the 
doom  of  that  superiority.  In  dis- 
cussions upon  the  consequences 
of  that  catastrophe,  attention  is 
usually  directed  to  the  Urrible 
loss  of  life  among  young  combat- 
ants to  the  enormous  burden  of 
debts  and  their  evil  economic  con- 
sequences, and  to  the  hatred 
aroused  by  the  conflict  Itself  and 
the  treaUes  resulting  fi'om   It.   Sel-

who  had  shaken  hands  wllh  John

for  the*  greeting,  since,  as  he  ex- 
plulned,  his  right  hand  whs  cn- 
K'tgcd    with    a    beer    mug. 

The  purpose  uf  the  Interview 
was  to  iiscerlaln  just  how  the 
people  in  the  early  days  went 
about  the  matter  of  getting  a 
drink  It  seemed,  according  to  the 
testimony  of  this  witness  that 
the  pioc'cAH  was  fairly  simple  All

way  IhrouiEh  a  wcll-ollcd  swing- 
ing   doui     und    liierc    you    were. 

'There  was  sawdukT  nn  the 
floor,"  the  old  limvr  explained 
wistfully 

"But  what  did  you  cut?' 
We  didn't  eat  Oh  yea!  'I  here 
was  a  free  lunuh  counter  with 
pig's  knuckles  and  pickles  and 
there  was  a  put  of  what  the  bar-

ARGUMENT   OVER   MILE 

•Wilson's  father,  John  Wilson, 
and  his  family  lived  on  a  farm 
about  seven  miles  from  Franklin- 
ton. .  .  .  On  Saturday  morniog. 
July  21,  1934.  Joe  Hagec.  white 
range  rider  appointed  by  the 
State  to  inspect  the  stock  on  all 
farms,  went  to  the  Wilson  home 
and  told  Jerome  Wilson  .  .  .  that 
a  mule  had  to  be  dipped.  Jerome 
Wilson  told  Magee  that  they 
knew  the  mule  was  to  be  dipped 
and  would  be  dipped  as  soon  as 
bla  father  had  secured  the  neces- 
sary permit.  Magee  became  en- 
raged and  declared  that  he  him- 
self would  have  him  dipped." 
When  Jerome  Wilson  refused  lo  ; 
permit  Magee  to  dip  his  mule,  the  t.

Henry  Lewis,  No.  1  contender,  in 
a  ten  round  main  event  at  Madi- 
son Square  Gardens  in  New  York 
(Friday)    tonight. 

Not     more     than     a     couple     of 
weeks    ago.    the    nationally    known 
Ring     Spirting     magazine     named 
the    colored    boxer    as   The    leading 
citallenger     for     the     crown,     that 
Olin   captured   from   Maxie   Rosen- 
bloom,    only    because    he    got    the 
crack    at    the    title    tliat    justly    be- 
longed   to    Lewis.  I 
When   news  reached   this  section 
that    Maxie    Slapsie    contemplated  j 
putting    his    crown    on    the    block. 
Frank    Schuler    immediately    v/lred ' 
Jimmy   Johnston    and   was   told   to ; 
bring     John     Henry     to     ISastern 
shores.    He   got   off   to   u   bad   start 
lowing  to  the.  fact  that  he  wits  not 
acclim»ted,    but    has    defeated    his 
opponents    easily    since    the    debut. 
This    fatal   encounter   happened   to 
be  on  the  same  Ckirden  sliow  that 
the   present   champ   copped   the   ti- 
tle. 
OOPK  SATS   OUN   FORCED 

Olin  and  his  managers  knew 
what  is  liable  to  happen  when 
they  meet  Lewis-  -that's  why  tb^ 
dodged  him  last  week  as  was  re^ 
corded  on  this  page.  Perhaps  you 
are  aslcing  how  come  they  are 
meeting  tonight.  Well,  here's  (he 
dope  as  sent  us  straight  from  the 
Metropolitan   City. 

The  bos»e«  of  Madison  Square 
Oar4en    had    much    to     do    wMh 
OUn    getting    his    chance    at    the 
tlMe.      Quite     a      few      of      them 
(honght    be    was    a   neat    product 
until    they    saw    John    Henry    In

friends     hack     there     and     John 
himself,   has   gained  some   strong 
followers    who    have    a    finger    in

Whether     that     is     me     up-n-up 
dope,  I'm  as  innocent  as  a  cbeeild. 
However,    such    things    have    hap- 
pened  in  the  realm  of  cauliflower- 
ear  alley,  and  even  though  it   is  a 
Non-Title  boul,  It   is   just  one   step 
away   from   the  coveted   champion- 
ship  that   I  know   will  soon   adorn 
the    head    of    John    Henry    Lewis, 
ngw    referred     to    by     ofay    sport

vealed la.«t  week  that  Japanese 
imperialism  plans  to  .step  into  the

The  bulletin  revealed  that  with

In  the  f'hillippines  themselves. ' 
thera  is  a  decided  feeling  that 
I  Japan  will  step  in  when  the  Unit-

Times,  a  PhiUippine  publication, 
reported  that  Japan  will  install  a 
puppet  ruler  as  soon  as  she  finds 
a  pretext  for  invading  the  islands. 
Rumors    are    hLso    thick    in    Manila 


that ,  tke  Japanese  have  a  large 
"sluslf*  fund  of  400.(100  yen  to

NEWSi'APER,  according  to 
Arthur  Brbbane,  is  historjs  second  hand.  It    has  tho  difficult  task  of 
kcppinp  its  oyo  on  the  acUcna  of  two  billion  human  brings  spread  over 
va«t  areas  and  s|«>«king  in  counUess  tongues.  It  must  git  the  news  from 
the  four  comers  of  tht-  world,  past  tho  opposiiton  of  people  who  know, 
pn.st  ocnaors,  and  through  the  obscurity  of  different  languagr s.  When  all 
this  is  d».no  the  important  news  must  be  condensed,  interpreted,  written 
up  in  an  interesting  manner,  printed  anU  delivered  to  your  door.  And  for 
this  you  |>ay  less  than  five  cent*.  •  A  good  newspaper  gets  all  the  news. 
A  perfect  newspafxr  would  be  one  by  means  of  which  a  reader  could 
gain  complete  knowledge  of  the  world  wc  live  in.  Reading  a  perfect  city 
newspaper  would  enable  a  subscriber  to  know  that  city  as  comj>leteIy  as 
if  he  or  she  had  lived  in  it  all  their  life,  and  knew  everjone  in  it.  Such  a 
r«pcr  is,  of  course,  only  an  editor's  dream.  •  The  Spokesman  has  been 
bringing  the  worid  to  bay  area  readers  for  over  three  years.   It   has 
turned  out  good  issues  and  bad  ones;  been  eariy  and  late:  made  mistakes 
and  progressed.  It  will  probably  continue  to  do  so  as  long  as  its  produc- 
tion is  hampered  h\  the  limitaUons  now  existing,   "i  We  feel,   however, 
that,  considering  tho  limitaUons,  we  have  brought  our  readers  a  papei 


that  can  compare  favorably  with  any  other  in  the  United  States  produced 

under  the  same  condiUons.  •  We  have  tried  to  bring  aU  the  important 

happenings  in  the  Aframerican  world  into  your  home.  We  feel  that  we 

have,  in  a  measure,  succeeded.  Wc  have  given  you  the  best  columnists, 

commentators  and  editors  we  could  obtain.  We  have  tried  to  keep  the 

difficult  attitude  of  complete  lack  of  bias  in  our  news  stories.  The  reader 

deserves  the  facts.  Judgment  is  his  private  right.  When  an  individual  or 

an  organization  has  accomplished  some  good,  it  has  been  recorded.  When 

an  individual  or  organizaUon  has  erred,  that  too  has  been  recorded.  The 

praise  or  censure  for  these  deeds  is  the  reader's  interpretaUon  of  the 

facts.  '^  When  a  newspaperman  becomes  opinionated  he  ceases  being  a 

newspaperman  and  becomes  an  editor.  We  feel  that  the  opinions  you  are 

asked  to  accept  in  our  editorial  and  commentaUon  columns  are  backed 

up  by  sound  knowledge  and  careful  thought.  "  The  Spokefunan  has  much 

to  learn— has  had  to  learn  much  in  the  past.  And  it  is  learning  every 

day.  Thousands  of  loyal  readers  have  been  learning— are  leaning— with 

us.  They've  been  subscribers  since  the  first  "tabloid  "  Spokewman  a{«)eared 

on  the  newsstands.  And  they've  been  readers  ever  since.  TfiBY  KNOW 

THAT  The  Spokesman  IS  A  GOOD  FIVE  CENTS  WORTP  OF  NEWS.

*'^Iti3  a  startling  thing  to  discover  in  a

bibyiieaB  is  not  only  God  but  a  large  pro—

'  President  RoOscvclt's  findings  in  the 
matter  of  dole  relief  arc  interesting:  "The 
Etaric  fact  before  us  is  that  great  num- 
bers still  remain  imctnployed.  .  .  .  Tjic 
lessons  of  history,  confirmed  by  the  cvi> 
dcncc  immediately  before  mc.  show  eon- 
clutjivdy  that  continued  deixindencc  upon 
relief  induces  a  spiritual  and  moral  dis- 
integration fundamentally  destructive  to 
the  national  fibre.  To  dole  out  relief  in 
this  way  is  to  administer  a  narcotic,  a 
subtle  destroyer  of  the  human  spirit.  It 
is  inimicabic  to  the  dictates  of  sound 
policy.  .  .'.  I  am  not  willing  that  the  vital- 
ity of  our  people  be  further  sapixxl  by  the 
S:tving  of  cash,  of  market  baskets,  of  a 
few  hours  of  weekly  work  cutting  grass, 
raking  leaves  cr  picking  up  papers  in  the 
public  parks." 

President  Roosevelt  seems  to  be.  in  a 
negative  fashion,  approaching  an  attack 
on  one  of  the  ftmdamental  misconcep- 
tions of  the  crisis.  An  expression  that 
has  been  so  often  repeated  that  no  one 
longer  'feels  the  necessity  ot  supporting 
it  with  arguments  or  facts,  is  that  uni- 
versal explanation  of  the  depression, 
"There  is  not  enough  work  to  go  around." 

This  is  doubtless  one  of  the  gravest 
errors  of  the  situation.  There  IS  enough 
work  to  go  around.  More  than  enough.  In 
fact,  there  is  far  more  work  to  be  done 
than  we  can  ever  accomplish  were  we  all 
to  labor  24  hours  a  day  constantly. 

Today,  in  the  United  States,  we  have 
m^llohs  of  dollars  worth  of  surplus  food, 
surplus  clothing,  surplus  hands  which 
oould  be  building  houses. 

When  we  consider  the  enormous  strides 
that  science  has  made  in  home  planning. 
we  realize  at  once  that  there  is  hardly 
a  house  In  the  land,  with  the  exception  of 
those  owned  by  a  few  architectural  pio- 
neers and  new-millionaires  that  shouldn't 
be  razed  and  a  new  one  put  in  its  place. 
The  farmers  of  tht  south  are,  today, 
without  a  sufficient  amount  of  clothes 
and  bedding.  Leather  begs  for  a  market — 
and  men  and  women  walk  about  in  worn- 
out,  broken  dotvn  shoes.  The  whole  thing's 
absurd. 

Here  we  have  a  land  bursting  with  a 
surplus  of  raw  materials  lying  besides 
idle  machinery,  and  hundreds  of  thou- 
sands of  the  population  living  in  squallor 
in  city  slums,  poorly  clothed — and  four 
million  idle  hands  looking  for  work.  Yet 
we  say  there  is  no  work. 

Today  the  standard  of  living  of  the 
citizens  of  America  is  the  highest  of  any 
country  in  the  world.  But  so  long  as  we 
have  scientific  knowledge  that  remains 
years  ahead  of  the  existing  ways  of  life, 
so  long  as  we  have  the  materials  and  the 
men  available  to  bring  this  knowledge 
into  the  life  of  the  average  citizen,  we 
cannot  say  that  'there  is  no  more  work 
to  be  done." 

The  real  problerh  before  the  govern- 
ment is  not  to  make  work  but  to  find  a 
means  whereby  some  of  the  vast  tasks 
before  otir  eyes  today  can  be  accom- 
plished.

MITCHELL'S  SECOND  VOTE 

Congressman  Arthur  Mitchell's  (£)em., 
111.)  first  vote  last  week  was  for  the  elec- 
tion of  the  House  officers,  and  his  second 
for  a  gag  rule,  imder  which  signatures  of 
218  Congressmen  are  necessary  to  compel 
consideration  of  a  bill  which  opponents 
arc  blocking. 

Previously  only  145  signatures  were 
necessary. 

In  voting  for  the  gag  rule.  Mr.  Mitch- 
ell voted  with  hia  party,  which  is  the  ma- 
jority party.  However.  Mr.  Mitchell  him- 
self is  a  member  of  a  minority  group 
within  the  Democratic  [larty,  and  the  time 
rtlay  come  when  he  will  have  to  use  the 
method  of  petition  to  call  up  btlla  in  which 
ho  ia  interested. 

Democrats  justify  the  gag  rule,  by  de- 
claring it  will  permit  them  to  hold  up  un- 
deairable  Republican  bUls,  which  have  no 
chance  to  pass  and  would  only  be  used  to 
hamper  and  delay  the  Democratic  pro- 
gl%m. 

Perhaps  after  Mr.  Mitchall  has  gotten 
his  feet  thoroughly  wet  in  Congress  he 
win  not  vote  for  any  measure  designed  to 
CUi^  the  power  of  minority  groups  in 
Congreaa  or  iit  the  nation. 

A  majority  of  the  Houae  ia  not  always 
right,  and  even  if  it  were,  it  should  always 
bi  joaaibto  for  a  minority  and  a  small 
minotlty  to  insist  by  petition  that  the 
bbfly  btfor«  it  adjiouma  vote  a  question  up 
oi"  down. — Baltimore  Afro-American.

llavK  Just  come  from  a  belated 
t'ldivjing  of  two  more  than  iiitcr- 
esUnii  pIclUTis  namely.  "Iniltation 
nl  Life"  and  "Lives  of  a  Bengal 
l^aiiycr,""  They  arc  widely  ncjidiHt-

In.  "IiiiUatlon  of  Life"  the  proL

IS  hympiithetically  and  in  thi 
mawt  part  Intelligently  told  Thert 
Is  ne  need  here  to  review  the 
vtory.  bul  the  situation  in  real  life 
It  K<vms  to  UN  could  have  been 
coamderably  cased  by  a  more 
careful  analysis  on  the  part  ol 
Ih*  irbilr  mother  In  helping  solve 
Ihe  priiblrms  of  the  one  whi 
might  4>ave  been  her  equal  finan- 
c'laiiy  liu'  who  chose  to  remain 
ber  scrviint  It  was  obvious  that 
L>elllidi.  the  mother  of  the  "passa- 
ble" girl  rralixed  her  daughter"* 
illUoun:i  but  could  not  cope  with 
Ihc  situation  as  set  forth  In  the 
SUlhurs    Imagination. 

tVhUe  one  was  moved  to  sorrow 
for  tbc  two  mothers,  yet  there 
was.  Infinitely  more  tr.igedy  in 
Ihc  children"*  prnblemii  which  no 
OBC.  nuidc  any  stine  move  to  help 
exeept  Ihiil  of  the  while  girl"* 
unfortunate  love  for  her  inothcr'!i 
suitor.  That  wua  agreeably  fixed 
and  everyone  looked  happy,  but 
Ihe  other  girl  was  left  lo  go  back 
lo  an  existence  she  professed  to 
hate  and  only  agreed  lo  remain 
In  because  ol  the  deolb  of  her 
mother. 

Of  course  the  piiture  u  to  en- 
tertain hut  having  found  and  por- 
trayed the  problem  we  are  en- 
iHled  at  least  lo  a  sensible,  con- 
structive   conclusion 

In  "Life  of  a  Bengal  Lancer" 
w*  are  led  lo  believe  that  all  the 
young  men  in  the  service  of  his 
Majesty's  troops  in  India  are 
dashing  young  fellows  who  wear 
smnrt  uniform.'!  and  have  mother 
Comploars  On  the  other  hand  all 
the'  Hindus  are  subtle  devils  who 
wear  dlnniunils  practically  every- 
where and  nre  bent  killing  all 
the  dashing  )t>ung  fellows  in  the 
nice  uniforms  who  would  rather 
be  killed  than  «ublle:  '.hereby  sav- 
ing the  reputation  of  England 
far   pretty    consistant    itupidtly 

Here  also  we  have  the  stuff  of 
wMeh  good  entertainment  is  made 
but  so  many  interesting  points 
are  raised,  .^o  many  sociological 
problems  begun  and  so  much  left 
to  more  than  the  Imagination  that 
it    becomes   a    little    wearing 

l*Or  Instance,  the  kpeclacte  of 
three  hundred  million  people  be- 
ing held  in  abeyance  by  a  Colonel 
who  cant  solve  the  :>imple  prob- 
lem of  whether  or  no  he  shall 
aarc  his  son  or  jump  in  the  Bay 
•f  Bengal  Is  slightly  touching  and 
imlnts  to  the  logical  conclusion 
Ihst  he  should  jump  but  if  neither 
piuasdure  Is  advised  by  the  "big- 
wigs' back  home  nc  must  wait 
UntM  the  last  minute  itorm  the 
Mtailel  and  through  a  miracle.

If  what  happens  In  "Life  of  a 
Bengal  Lancer"  is  a  true  ac-

ITALY'S  ATTEMPT  AT

B)    Frank   Shay 

An  atlenipt  to  understand  what

consist  in  an  attempt  lo  under-

preparing  to  gobble  up  whatever

What  Is  the  real  significance  of 
Ibis,  and  what  do^s  it  mean  to 
us    in    America? 

Abyssinia,  ostensibly  an  inde- 
pendent country  owned  and  gov- 
erned by  African  Negroes,  is  ac- 
tually "independent  only  in  Ihe 
sense  that  natives  are  permitted

France  and  Italy  hsx-e  no  reason 
lo  shoot,  enslave,  or  exploit  the 
natives  of  Abyssinia,  nnd  in  fact, 
if  given  the  chance,  would  call  a 
halt  lo  these  cruelties  But  we 
must  always  distinguish  between 
the  interest  of  the  ruling  class, 
enforced  by  the  government,  and 
the  Interest  of  the  people  who  are 
governed. 

Even  In  Abyssinia  itself,  wret- 
chedly as  that  land  is  squeesed 
for  profits  by  the  foreign  imper- 
ialists, we  find  a  n.itive  ruling 
class  who  Is  getting  theirs."  The 
Abyssinian  government  is  one  of 
the  most  notoriously  corrupt  in 
tbe  world  The  native  ruling  class 
has  for  years  cooperated  with  the 
while  imperialists  In  sending  into 
slavery  hundreds  of  thousands  of 
men.  women  and  chiloren.  under 
Ihe  most  terrible  conditions  of 
work  and  utterly  without  Ihe 
slightest  humanitarian  considera- 
tions This  Is  one  reason  why  dur- 
ing the  past  several  decades  the 
native  population  of  Africa  has 
dropped  lo  a  mere  fraction  of 
what    It    has   been 

Besidei^  the  slave  labor  supply 
to  conveniently  furnished  them 
by  the  Abysrinlan  "governmenl," 
the  imperialist  powers  want  other 
things    from    that    country.    ESng- 


land  wants  southern  Abyssinia, 
suitable  for  cotton-rcising.  Slave 
labor  will  enable  English  mill- 
owners  to  get  a  supply  of  cotton 
heaper     than     ran     be     furnished 

.  tn  by  th:  miserable  share- 
•.roppers  of  the  American  South. 
This  will  make  it  possible  tor  the 
English  capituli.'.ts  to  compete 
with  the  Japanese  industrialistA. 
Aho  pay  their  workers  In  terms 
of  pennies.  England  also  wants  to 
control  the  head-waters  of  several 
of  the  important  rivers  of  Egypt 
and  the  Sudan,  which  hove  their 
source  in  the  moun'.ains  of  Abys- 
sinia. .She  wants  all  that  water 
for  irrigating  tbc  :>udan  and  for 
a  supply  of  cheap  wa;er-power  to 
exploit  African  slave-labor  in  new 
factories    and    mills. 

Italy  wants  pari  of  northern 
Abyssinia,  a  territory  ;  between 
Eritrea,  on  the  Coast,  and  Italian 
Somaliland.  also  on  the  coast, 
both  of  which  strips  she  now 
owns  In  Ihese  ambitions  the  Ital- 
ian ruling  class  has  not  been  in 
conflict  with  the  British  capital- 
ists, whose  field  of  lunditry  lies 
further  south.  But  ihe  French 
have  had  their  eye*:  on  the  same 
ground.  Now,  in  return  for  con- 
cessions in  the  European  economic 
battle.  France  has  igreed  to  give 
the    Italian    thieves    a    free    hand 

Abyssinian  radicals  have  ap- 
pealed lo  the  League  of  Nations 
for  protection  against  these  im- 
perialist robberies.  The  outcome 
of  this  appeal  is  evident  when 
we  consider  the  substance  of  the 
League:  reprcscntati\-es  of  tbe 
governments  of  FRANCE.  ITALY, 
AND  ENGLAND!  It  i.s  like  strik- 
'  Ing  workers  asking  the  boss  to 
lead    them    against    himself. 

Obviously  it  means  little  to  tbe 
great  mass  of  inhabitants  of 
Abyssinia  whether  they  are  work- 
ing for  the  benefit  of  either  na- 
tive or  foreign  masters  A  master 
is  a  master  regardless  of  the  color 
of  his  skin  or  the  language  he 
.•peaks  The  Imperialist  masters 
all  have  the  same  object,  whether 
in  their  own  or  a  foreign  land 
to  grind  profits  out  of  the  work- 
ers The  woikers  in  every  land,

shown  how  the  Gentiles  have 
carried  Christianity  forward  with 
Tarying  degrees  of  success.  He 
will  now  consider  the  possibility

N'EWSPAPEH.  according  t.i 
Arthur  Bri;  bane,  is  history's  second  hand.  It  has  the  difficult  task  of 
keej-ini:  its  eye  on  the  actions  cf  two  billion  human  beings  spread  over 
vast  areas  and  sm  aklng  in  countless  tongucG.  It  must  get  the  news  from 
the  four  corners  of  the  world,  past  the  opposiiton  i.f  f>eople  who  know 
past  censors,  and  thiouph  the  obscurity  of  different  l.inguages.  When  all 
this  is  dene  the  important  news  must  be  condensed,  interpreted,  written 
ui>  in  an  inlenstinf;  manner,  printed  and  delivered  to  your  door.  And  for 
this  you  pay  less  than  five  cents.  '  A  good  newspaper  gets  all  the  news. 
A  perfect  newspnjier  would  be  one  by  means  of  which  a  reader  could 
gain  complete  knowledge  of  the  world  we  live  in.  Reading  a  jK-rfect  city 
newspaper  would  enable  a  subscriber  to  know  that  city  as  completely  as 
if  he  or  she  had  lived  in  it  all  their  life,  and  knew  everyone  in  it.  Such  a 
poper  is,  of  course,  only  an  editor's  dream.  ♦^The  8|>ok<^sman  has  been 
bringing  the  world  to,  bay  area  readers  for  over  three  years.   It   has 
turned  out  good  issues  and  bad  ones ;  been  early  and  late :  made  mistakes 
and  progressed.  It  will  probably  continue  to  do  so  as  long  as  its  produc- 
tion is  hampered  b.\'  the  limitations  now  existing.  <1  We  feel,  however, 
that,  considering  the  limitations,  we  have  brought  our  readers  a  pajx-t 


that  can  compare  favorably  with  any  other  in  the  United  States  produced 
under  the  same  conditions.  ^  We  have  tried  to  bring  all  the  important 
happenings  in  the  Aframerican  worid  into  your  home.  We  feel  that  we 
have,  in  a  measure,  succeeded.  We  have  given  you  the  best  columnists, 
commentators  and  editors  we  tovid  obtain.  We  have  tried  to  keep  the 
difficult  attitude  of  complete  lack  of  Was  in  our  new3  stories.  The  reader 
doac'r\'cs  the  facts.  Judgment  is  his  private  right.  When  an  individual  or 
an  organization  has  accomplished  some  good,  it  has  been  recorded.  When 
an  individual  or  organization  has  erred,  that  too  has  been  recorded.  The 
praise  or  censuiv  for  these  dMds  is  the  reader's  interpretation  of  the 
facts.  1  When  a  ne^^'8pape^nan  becomes  opinionated  he  ceases  being  a 
newspaperman  and  becomes  an  ecBtor.  We  feel  that  the  opinions  you  are 
asked  to  accept  in  our  editorial  and  commentation  columns  are  backed 
up  by  sound  knowledge  and  careful  thought.  •■  The  Spokesman  has  much 
to  learn — has  had  to  learn  much  in  the  paA.  And  it  is  learning  evwy 
day.  Thousands  of  loyal  readeni  have  been  learning— are-  leandng — with 
us.  They've  been  subscribers  since  the  first  "tabloid"  Spokeeman  appeared 
on  the  newsstands.  And  they've  been  readers  ever  since.  THEY  KNOW 
THAT  Tbe  Syokesmail  IS  A  GOOD  nVE  CENTS  WORTH  OF  NEWS.

.   LOUISIANA    rj!:Al>8  OFF 

Example  is  alwajc  a  bettor  teacher 
than  is  precept.  But  is  seldom  that  the 
average  man  is  given  the  opportunity  to 
loam  by  this  belter  method.  Louisiana, 
however,  obliges  by  giving  the  United 
States  a  splendid  example  of  the  necessity 
for  the  Cosiigan-Wagncr  Anti-Lynching 
Bill. 

A  mob  at  Frunklinton,  with  the  evident 
connivance  of  the  authorities,  entered 
the  jail  in  that  town,  shot  to  death  a 
prisoner,  Jerome  Wilson  and  dumped  his 
bullet-riddled  body  in  the  road. 

This  action  was  prompted  by  the  fact 
that  Jerome  Wilson's  trial  liad  been 
thought  by  the  high  court  unfair.  Ck)n- 
victed  by  a  jury  of  white  farmers  after 
he  had  killed  a  Deputy  Sheriff  over  an  ar- 
gument concerning'  dipping  his  mule,  he 
was  given  a  new  trial  by  the  high  court- 
So  the  mob,  after  learning  of  the 
findings  cf  justice,  went  to  Jerome  Wilson 
and  lynched  him. 

In  that  act  was  a  complete  argument 
for  the  necessity  of  an  anti-lynching  bill. 
The  whole  situation  was  clearly  exhibited. 
The  operation  of  "justice."  The  futility  of 
existant  legal  machinery  to  mete  out  jus- 
tice. The  "protection"  of  the  southern 
jails  ...  all  the  whole  mess  was  pointed 
out  in  a  single  act  of  savagery  by  a  mob 
of  low-grade  morons. 

Because  there  is  no  anti-lynching  law, 
the  murderers  of  Jerome  Wilson  will  prob- 
ably never  be  apprehended.  Until  there  is 
such  a  law  no  Negro  can  hope  for  cither 
safety  or  justice  in  the  south. 

It  is  up  to  us  to  see  that  such  a  law  is 
passed  at  this  session  of  Congress.  It  can 
be  done.

THE  TWIUGMT  OF  ETHIOPIA 

Imperialism  is  based  on  the  exploita- 
tion of  colonial  peoples.  Italy,  a  second- 
class  power,  arriving  late  on  the  scene, 
found  practically  all  available  real  estate 
snapped  up.  Nothing  wa  sleft  but  two 
barren  strips  on  the  East  coast  of  Africa. 
Fertile  Abyssinia  beckoned.  She  sent 
40,000  men  there  in  1895,  but  Emperor 
Menclik  beat  them  back  in  ig^ominous 
defeat.  Fifteen  years  later  in  a  brief  war 
Italy  took  Libya  from  the  Turks.  Steadily 
she  has  pushed  southward,  intent  on  con- 
quering the  desert  tribes  and  reopening 
the  caravan  routes  into  the  rich  areas  of 
Negro  Africa,  southward  from  Lake 
Tchad,  hoping  to  head  off  some  of  the 
great  trade  that  now  goes  through  the 
west  coast  ports. 

Fortuitously,  the  European  situation 
has  given  Italy  an  opportunity  to  bargain 
advantageously.  To  guarantee  the  assis- 
tance or  neutrality  of  Italy  in  the  event 
of  war  with  Germany,  France  has  given 
44,000  square  miles  of  territory  south  of 
Libya,  bringing  that  territory  closer  to 
Lake  Tchad.  She  has  also  given  Italy  a 
slice  of  French  Somaliland  and  half  inter- 
est in  the  railroad  from  Djibuti  to  Addis 
Ababa,  Abyssinian  capital.  It  is  intimated 
that  she  has  given  Italy  permission  to  deal 
in  her  own  way  with  Abyssinia,  where  oil 
has  recently  been  discovered. 

Italy  has  no  oil.  Abyssinian  oil  has 
recently  been  discovered  near  the  border 
of  Italian  Somaliland.  Italy  is  determined 
to  take  that  oil  territory.  The  Leagtie  of 
Nations  will  no  more  be  able  to  stop  her 
than  it  has  been  able  to  stop  the  Para- 
guayan-Bolivian war  in  the  Chaco  jungles. 
Once  Italy  has  that  territory,  it  will 
not  be  loiig  before  she  will  have  the  rest 
of  Ethiopia.  An  extension  of  the*  railroad 
will  enable  her  to  send  out  oil  and  bring 
in  equipment  expeditiously.  At  the  same 
time  she  can  keep  out  Japanese  goods 
and  prevent  the  Abyssinians  from  getting 
arms  and  ammunition.  No  doubt  but  what 
she  will  do  it.  It  is  probable  that  only  the 
reluctance  of  Great  Britain  to  strengthen 
Italy  will  prevent  the  march  of  imperial- 
ism in  Ekist  Africa,  and  that  hope  is  a 
slender  reed. 

It  appears  to  be  the  twilight  of  Abys- 
sinia.— Pittsburgh    Courier.

T.\KlNO    A    CHANCE 

The  Bishops'  Council  of  the  A.  M.  E. 
Church  has  not  succeeded  in  recalling 
Bishop  David  H.  Sims  from  South  Africa 
to  answer  charges  of  desertion  and  proba- 
ble bigamy  preferred  by  his  wife  over  a 
year  ago. 

Permitting  a  bishop  or  any  other  of- 
ficial to  remain  as  a  leader  in  the  church 
for  two  years  after  unanswered  serious 
moral  charges  have  been  filed  against  him 
is  a  serious  blimder.  The  church  is  taking 
a  chance. 

If  Bishop  Rims  is  innocent,  what  a  se- 
rious and  unnecessary  handicap  upon  his 
work  these  charges  must  be. 

If  he  is  guilty,  how  can  any  parishion- 
er or  preacher  forgive  a  church  which  has 
permitted  soiled  hands  to  administer  their 
communion  for  t#o  years  ?— Afro- Ameri-

is  unchanged.  Remove  federal 
relief  and  acreage  control,  and 
the  cotton  industry  would  at  once 
sink  to  primitive  conditions  of 
life  and  society.  Control  of  pro- 
duction    is    the    only    constructive 

and    hopeful   feature   in    all   of   the 

vast  relief  program  {bat  has  been 

administered    in    the    Cotton    Belt, 

but   whether   controlled    production 

can   withstand    Its   own   effects   on 

foreign   production   is   doubtful.    In 

any  case,  all  other  forms  of  relief 

in   the   rural   South   have    been,   as 

Mr.    Harry   L.    Hopkins    says,    like 

dumping   money  into  a  sewer. 
The    new    plan    of   rehabilitation 

of    the    farmer    explained    by    Mr 

Hopkins  at  the  Atlanta  Confer- 
ence   of    Southern    -elief    directors 

in    March    promises    more    in    the 

way  of  permanent  relief  than   any 

previous     measure.     According     to 

Mr.  Hopkins,  rural  famlliM  on  re- 
lief  rolls   should   be    provided   with 

land,  housing,  farm   animals,   tools 

and  groceries  and  so   be   given   an 

opportunity  to  care  for  them- 
selves.     About      120,000      Southern 

families  need  this  type  of  relief  at 

once.  The  plan  is  perhaps  remi- 
niscent of  Reconstruction  promis- 
es of  40  acres  and  a  mule.   but«it 

docs   offer    more    hope    than    mere 

pouring  of  relief  Into  empty  stom- 
achs. 

KBLIEF  MONEY 
Concerning    the    effect    of    lU'X' 

and   CWA    money    re«Hve4    In    the 

Cotton    Uoit,    Mr.    Kennedy    writM 

that    It    was    these    moaeys    alone 

that   kept   the   farmer*   alive.    The 
lal     wrangling     and     aeinshaess 

came  Into  evidence  in  the  problem 

of    lU    dIstribuUon,    centered    prhi- 

eJpoUy   about  the    wage   aoale.   The 

government    relkf   wage   senle   was 
ImueJi    higher    than    the    soale    ex-

they  still  measure  labor  by  the

the  minds  of  many  who  are  In-

causing  jitters"  In  the  Hnanci*!

I      Gambling,    even    behind   the   drab 

grey    walls    of    San    Quentin,    with 

staken  a   bit   of   tobacco,   candy,   or 

other   prison    luxuries,    has    brought 

Ernest  Smith,  convict   face   to  f^ce , 

with    the    hangman  s    noose,    and    a 

jury  today  will   decide    whether   or 

not    he    roust    die    for    the    murder 

of   a    fellow    prisoner. 

Smith  Is  charged  with  kickinfi 
Arthur  Ruls.  white,  td  deatll  1^ 
the  prison  yard  in  a  vlclous- 
before  guards,  standing  30 
away,  could  separate  them 
convicts  and  one  guard  toM  of 
seeing  a  knife  in  Ruis'  hand,  and 
supported  Smith  Ihal  he  struck 
in    self    defense  .* 

In  rebuttal,  however.  Rohart 
Duarte.  white,  convict,  testifiira 
that  he  had  told  of  the  knife  be- 
cause of  death  threats  from  niac- 
teen  other  inmates  it  he  did  Offt 
aid  in  Smith's  defense.  In  recant-^ 
ing  his  story,  he  bared  the  fadf 
that  games  are  run  nightly,  mad 
told  of  the  activities  of  Smitb  \i 
"collector"  of  gambling  debts 
owed  by  other  inmates.  Ruis  ia 
said  to  have  repudiated  bis  "daM" 
and   the   fight  ensued. 

In     support     of     the     self-defense 

plea,    Edward    Voetrede.    a    guard, 

testified    that    he    saw    Ruts    pull    a 

(j3y    knife,    and*  identified    the    weapon 

from     a     drawer-full     taken     from

addretKca  of  FU-TY  huHiuefutes  o|»erated  by  whites  In  the  Ray  IMijn. 
Well  lay  a  bet  that  you  can  do  it  as  ra|iidly  as  we  ran  write  them  down. 
Why!  la  it  ainply  because  more  busin«>s(ies  are  0i>eratpd  by  whites  than 
by  NecroeHf  la  it  beeau.se  the  wWte  businesses  arc  "blgRcj  and  better" 
than  the  Net(ro-oper»tcd  budnehMSM?  •^  Not  at  all!  The  reason  is  fdmpte: 
NFXiRO-OPeilATEO  BISINESSES  1K)NT  ADVERTISE!  If  you  didnt 
re«id  or  Uatea  to  advcttiseiaciBta.  you  woiddn't  know  whether  the  Kmpo- 
riiun,  H.  C.  CapwoU,  Sherman  «  Clay.  Hiok.  J.  C.  Pemiey,  HeJustcin.  or

T  Megro  proydetors  or  nwaagars  of  bwiineM.  enterpriMa  eontaad   that 


their  people  will  not  patronize  them.  We  thiak  the  buying  puMio,  in  a 


majority  of  sueh  cases,  Is  riglit.  The  pubti«,  of  whatever  race  —  Negroid, 


IVIongoloid,    Caucasian  — is    PRICE-CONSCHM^S    and    QCAUTY-CON- 


KCMH  S.  The  pubHe  Ls  iookin^  for  the  f<reatest  value  at  the  lea«t  ex- 


pense.  Therefore,    why    |iay    Proprietor   Btanfc  —  who   happens   to   be  a 


**feflow-raee-man" —  more  for  a  product  that  is  inferior  in  quality  to  omt 


coating  less  at  K'a  downtow-n  store?  f  The  "raee^rotherhood"  appeal  i» 


no  lonj;*'r  effective  under  con^ietitive  business  conditions.  In  truth,  Negro 


bifj-crs  wotdd   preler   to   patronize   a   Negro   huslness  —  providing    titeir 


porrhases  meaa  real  savings  on  real  values.  To  obtain  and   hold  their 


patroaage,  the  Negro  proprietor  must  operate  his  iMislNew,  aeeording  to 


up-to-date  practice.  WUICTI  ME.\NS  THAT  HE  MUST  ADVEBTUUEt 


tl  Aad  as  a  mattM-  of  faet,  the  boMneM  ttiat  advertises  is  generally  the 


bminess  "on  its  toes,"  alert,  anxious  to  get  and  keep  a  satisfied  cHeateie. 


II  Ls  the  business  that  offeni  real  savings  and  real  ralues.  It  hi  the  ImmI-

THE    GOVERNOR'S    MESSAGE 

THE  MESSAGE  of  Gtoverncr  Frank 
Slcrriam  to  the  Legislature  was,  in  effect, 
that  the  {jeople  must  take  the  more  un- 
pleasant of  two  alternatives  for  financing 
the  necessary  expenditures  of  a  depres- 
sion-weighed state. 

By  increai>ing  the  \evy  in  almost 
all  tax- revenue  sources,  the  State  may 
continue  to  "pay  as  it  goes",  thus  keep- 
hig  a  balanced   budget. 

We  can  pass  with  little  comment  the 
fact  that  the  Governor  placed  the  main 
Inirden  of  the  new  taxes  on  the  little  fel- 
low. Unfair  as  this  certainly  is,  it  should 
not  be  unexpected.  The  Governor's  record 
js  too  well  known  to  make  any  action  fa- 
vorable to  the  big  interests  a  surprise. 
Wb  plan,  however,  to  keep  a  balanced 
budget,   certainly   deserves    praise. 

The  other  alternative  is  to  follow  the 
pattern  of  the  Federal  Government  and 
finance  expenditures  by  floating  long- 
term  l)ODd  issues.  This  tosses  the  burden 
of  payment  on  the  shoulders  of  the  next 
^neration — a  long  popular  practice.  As  a 
Nsult  of  practicing  the  latter  method  of 
financing  government  expenditures,  the 
per-capita  debt  of  the  people  of  the  Unit- 
ed States  is  now  nearly  four  hundred  dol- 
lars. 

Another  result  of  this  second  method 
is  inflation,  if  the  practice  is  carried  too 
far.  When  the  market  is  saturated  with 
government  bonds,  the  only  alternative 
left  to  a  goverfiment  operating  on  a  bal- 
anced budget  is  the  printing  of  paper 
money  without  gold  backing.  The  conse- 
quences of  such  a  practice  are  too  well 
konwa  from  examples  in  Europe  to  re- 
quire description.

MOONEY     AND    SCX)TTSBORO 
Wv    asked    an    attorney    togivc    us 
an  interpretation  of  the  recent  findings 
of  the  United  States  Supreme  Court  in 
regard  to  the  Tom  Mooney  case,  in  its 
|K>ssibU    relation.>«hip  to  the  case  of  the 
Scottsbt'co    lM)ys,    which    will    Im-    heard 
by    that    body    within    the    next    two 
months.   Here   it   is!   — The   Editor 

What  solace  may  be  found  in  the  obi- 
tur  of  the  United  States  Supreme  Court's 
recent  decision  in  the  Tom  Mooney  case 
for  the  Scottsboro  boys?  Despite  the  fact 
that  the  opinion  under  the  special  facts 
disclosed  in  effect  amounted  to  a  denial 
of  an  application  for  a  writ  of  habeas 
corpus*,  a  slender  ray  of  hope  was  cast 
in  the  summed  judgment,  that  considera- 
tion could  be  given,  to  such  appeal,  but 
only  after  every  legal  remedy  within  the 
state  was  exhausted.  In  the  words  of 
Chief  Justice  Hughes,  "Orderly  procedure 
governed  by  principles  we  have  repeatedly 
announced  requires  that  before  this  court 
is  asked  to  issue  a  writ  of  habeas  corpus, 
in  the  case  of  a  person  held  under  State 
commitment,  recourse  should  be  had  to 
whatever  judicial  remedy  afforded  by  the 
State  may  still  remain  open." 

Although  Mooney  and  the  boys  at 
Scottsborough  share  fates  of  proportion- 
ate severity,  they  are  not  to  be  cast  nec- 
essarily in  the  same  setting.  Fundamental 
mistakes  have  been  commonly  admitted 
in  the  one  case;  in  the  other  there  are 
errors  of  different  kind,  and  with  the  fur- 
ther prospect  of  elimination  to  a  suffi- 
cient degree.  This  again  suggests  a  differ- 
ence to  be  not^ed,  that  the  latter  case  is 
by  no  means  ended  in  the  trial  stage, 
whereas  Mooney's  situation  lacks  but  one 
step — habeas  corpus — to  complete  its  tra- 
vel through  our  courts  of  CaUfomia. 

Of  similarity,  it  may  be  added  that 
the  positions  of  the  defendants  concerned 
are  equally  dire,  and  the  remark  of  the 
Supreme  Court  tends  to  offer  sympathy 
with  such  positions,  when  it  says:  "The 
requirement  of  due  process  in  safeguard- 
ing the  liberty  of  the  citizen  against  de- 
privation through  the  action  of  the  State 
embodies  the  fundamental  conceptions  of 
justice  which  lie  at  the  base  of  our  civil 
and  poUtical  institutions."  At  least  a 
course  is  laid  for  application  by  the 
Scottsborough  boys  for  writs  of  habeas 
corpus,  whej-e  they  come  within  the  spell 
of  fundamental  error,  rather  than  inci- 
dental error  in  procedure  which  must  be 
taken  advantage  of  to  prove  of  effect. 

Public  efforts  should  perhaps  be  un- 
ending in  strength  of  its  assertion.  For, 
some  hopes  pass  through  the  tortures  of 
a  slow  death,  and  can  we  say  that  the 
waning  notes  of  an  heroic  pubhc  opinion 
are  merely  the  dying  gasps  of  hope  at 
Scottsboro?  And  when  that  abortive  clam- 
or subsides  into  the  mere  whispers,  what 
shadowy  hope  can  we  expect  to  be  cast 
upon  th'.>  ever  ebbing  promise  of  a  much 
desired  and  deserved  liberty  by  that  au- 
gust body  of  justice?  Or,  will  they,  when 
the  trial  and  error  attempts  of  a  South- 
ern court  succeed  by  logical  paradox  in 
producing  a  suitable  disguise  for  tradi- 
tional justice,  close  the  doer  on  another 
episode  of  American  tragedy?

AGITATION    D0F:S   PAY 

Dr.  Townscnd's  ballyhoo  for  old-age 
pensions  has  not  been  in  vain. 

Laughed  at  by  the  conservatives  and 
the  unthinking,  he  kept  the  tom-tom  beat- 
ing imtil  he  had  mobilized  15  milUon  peo- 
ple behind  him. 

Those  15  million  people  meeting,  dis- 
cussing writing  to  their  Benators  and  rep- 
resentatives in  Washington  forced  consid- 
eration of  the  Doctor's  old-age  pension 
plan. 

I'resJdent  Roosevelt  finally  took  cog- 
nizance of  the  nationwide  demand  for  se- 
curity for  our  old  people.  He  made  it  a 
burden  of  his  recent  message  to  Congress 
on  social  security. 

Senator  Wagner  of  New  York  has  in- 
troduced a  bill  providing  for  monthly  pay- 
ments to  those  above  60  years  of  age 
ranging  from  $10  up. 

Ten  dollars  a  month  is  obviously  too 
little.  Dr.  Townsend  asked  for  $200,  which 
is  certainly  not  too  much  for  old  men  and 
women  who  Jiave  no  source  of  income.  Al- 
ready there  is  a  move  on  in  Congress  to 
amend  the  Wagner  bill  to  raise  the  mini- 
mum monthly  payment. 

Agitatiov  does  pay.  Our  old  folk  ulti- 
mately will'  get   their   pensions   and   they 
will  receive  more  than  a  measly  ten  dol- 
'    lars  a  moqtj^,  too. 

lliere  can  be  no  social  security  while 
i  millions  of  the  aged  are  dependent  upon 
'  the  already  underpaid  wage-earners.  Nor 
I  can  there  be  any  real  recovery. — Pitts-

ho   oc- 


storehouse     of 

ences  which  bears  the  marks  of 
the  accumulation  of  ideals,  of  cul- 
ture, refinement  and  among  other 
things  the  precepts  and  pructencc 
of  civilized  society. 

Suppose  we  turn  our  attention 
briefly  to  the  fact  of  these  enu- 
merated phrases,  which  repre- 
sents the  basis  of  most  of  our 
emotional  responses.  Here  wc 
have  a  bundle  of  primitive  reflex- 
es and  reactions  susceptible  to 
the  powerful  suggestive  Influences 
of  the  American  environs.  The 
facts  of  the  Influence  of  sugges- 
tion on  the  infantile  mind  are 
too  well  known  to  necessitate  an 
elaboration  at  this  point.  In  the 
meantime,  however,  the  inferiority 
complex  which  Is  a  direct  out- 
growth of  suggestion,  auto  or  oth- 
erwise, had  Its  Inciplency  in  these 
primitive  minds  when  they  were 
taught  that  they  were  of  a  lower 
calibre  and  not  commensurate 
with  that  of  the  white  man.  On 
the  other  hand,  all  environmental 
influences  seemed  to  substantiate 
these  teachings.  For  those  infan- 
tile creatures  fettered  with  super- 
stition and  ignorance,  and  at  the 
same  time  attempting  to  adjust 
themselves  to  new  conditions  of 
life,  there  was  no  other  alterna- 
tive. Thus  a  wholehearted  accep- 
tance of  this  doctrine  resulted. 
SUSTAINED  IMPBDIMENT 

Had  the  problem  of  this  con- 
cept ended  with  the  early  colo- 
nists our  task  of  mental  rccoft- 
struction  would  not  be  such  a  gi- 
gantic one.  This  concept  has  be- 
come a  social  heritage  and  has  ao 
woven  iUelf  Into  the  mlnd-fabrk 
of  the  Negro  that  It  has  servtft 
as  an  impediment  to  the  forma* 
tlon  of  a  true  concept  of  hll 
worth  ns  a  man.  That  the  white 
man's  teachings  have  been  very 
effective  we  need  not  go  on  any 
extended  trip  to  find  evidence, 
but  casually  listen  to  the  conver- 
sation of  the  Negroes  in  any  a«e- 
tion  of  the  country  and  you  wUI 
hear  such  remarks  as  these:  •Yiih

No  matter  what  other  bugaboos 
may  arise  to  plague  Ma.x  Baer  as 
heavyweight  champion,  the  color 
question  isn't  likely  to  be  one  of 
them.  Max,  who  came  home  this

being  willing  to  meet  Joe  Louis, 
the  sensational  young  Detroit  col-

if  Joe  stands  up  in  the  meantime. 
Of  course,  promise  and  perform-

JOE   IJOVIH   MAY   COME

BOUT,  WIRES  MANAG'R 


Joe  Louis,  the  latest  colored 
gent  to  crash  the  headlines  from 
Oiost  to  0>a8t  arrived  in  Los 
Angeles  last  Wednesday  to  pre- 
pare for  his  coming  Feb.  21  ring 
engagement  with  Lee  Ramage. 
And  if  you  will  remember,  news 
of  Louis  accepting  the  match  and 
heading  for  California,  was  given 
exclusively  to  Spokesman  readers 
by  the  writer,  a  week  before  white 
daily  papers  and  two  weeks  before 
Race  papers  on  the  CJoast  pub- 
lished  the   news. 

In  the  boxer's  party  that  was 
greeted  at  the  station  by  thou- 
sands 'of  fans  of  both  races,  there 
was  Joe's  sister,  his  co-managers 
John  Roxborough  and  Julian 
Black  and  his  trainer,  Jack 
Blackburn.  With  motorcycles 
leading  the  wajr,  the  auto  caravan 
was  taken  to  the  C^ity  Hall  where

of  sleep  and  thousands  of  dollars

the  title  to  Tunney,  Jack  proba- 
bly heaved  a  vast  sigh  at  the 
thought  of  being   relieved   of   such 


leans  title  shot.  But  once  he  be- 
came champion,  Gentleman  Jim 
drew  the  color  line.  So  did  his 
successor,  Bob  Fitzsimmons.  Bob 
fought  Jack  Johnson  in  190S,  but 
that  was  long  after  he  had  lost 
the  title  to  Boilermarkcr  Jeffries.

after  Jeff's  retirement  by  virtue

BLACK  SOX  L0«CBT«-1  SCORE 

The  winning  streaiT  of  the  Oak- 
land Black  Sox  was  cut  short 
last  Sunday,  when  fTley  were  de- 
feated by  another  Winter  League 
team  at  Bayvlew  by  a  «  to  1 
count.    The    Sox    are    not    discour- 


patrons,  the  Orpheum  Theater  has 
completed  the  feature  film  book- 
ings for  the  second  month  of  the 
new  year.  Boastfully,  they  claim 
that  the  coming  weelis  will  afford 
the  pleasure  seekers  the  wildest 
possible  variety  of  comedies,  mys- 
teries and  musical  films  it  has 
been  their  pleasure  to  present 
since  Fanchon  and  Marco  took 
over  the  management  of  this 
htfhsc. 

During  the  week  to  come  the 
Orpheum  offers  "The  Mystery  of 
Edwin  Drood,"  featuring  Douglas 
Montgomery,  Heather  Angel, 
Claude  Rains,  and  David  Manners. 
On  the  same  bill  will  be  'The 
Million  Dollar  Baby,"  starring 
Arllne  Judge. 

The  following  week,  Feb.  14. 
brings  one  of  the  long-looked-for 
films,  The  Ciood  Fairy,  once  more 
bringing  Margaret  Sullavan  in  a 
role  said  to  be  better  even  than 
her  part  in  "Little  Man  What 
Now."  Appearing  with  her  will 
be  Herbert  Marshall,  in  the  role 
M  C  of  lover,  while  Frank  Morgan  ably 
heads  her  supportlhft  company. 
This  is  rated  as  a  rip-snorting 
farce  that  should  add  greatly  to 
the    laurels   of   this   star. 

Following  that  feature  will 
come  the  new  Edward  Robinson 
film  sensation.  "The  Whole  Town's 
Talking."  Over  the  air,  In  the  dal- 
ly press  and  in  magazines  this 
comedy  drama  has  been  lauded  to 
the  skies.  And  that  these  reports 
are  well  foundeS  can  easily  be 
believed  when  one  considers  the 
fact  that  the  man  Who  wrote  the 
screen  vertlAn  of  t%ls  play  Is 
nonte  other  than  Robert  Rlskin, 
who  wrote  "One  Night  of  Love," 
the  Grace  Moore  hit,  and  just  re- 
cently wrote  "Broadway  BUI." 


oember  M,  1908,  took  the  heavy- 
weight championship  away  from 
the  white  race.  That,  of  course, 
made  all  color  lines  null  and  void. 
It  is  regrettable  that  Johnson,  un- 
like so  many  of  the  great  boxers 
of  his  race  who  were  a  credit  to 
their  profession,  but  were  denied 
the  rhanre  to  become  champions, 
brought  dishonor  upon  the  title 
and  cheapened  it  as  it  seldom 
has  been  cheapened  since,  though 
several  experta  along  those  lines 
have  had  a  whack  at   It. 

Jeffries,  who  drew  the  color 
line  as  the  champion,  was  goaded 
Into  coming  out  of  retirement  to 
fight  Johnson.  It  was  a  sorry 
Ih^g  for  those  who  like  to  boaat 
of  the  supremacy  of  the  white 
race  that  JeffrirA  hadnt  stuck 
to  his  guns.  Johnson  knocked  him 
out  at  Reno  In  1910.  The  rest  of 
Johnson's  career  aa  champion  was 
spent  on  the  well-known  lam. 
Jock  Curiey  and  a  gaw-ky  giant 
from  the  Kansas  plains  caught 
up  willh  him  in  Havana  in  the 
spring  of  191.V  and  the  dear  old 
while  race  was  sa\-ed  In  the  2tth 
round  as  Johnson  curled  up  on 
the  canvas,  flashed  his  golden 
grin  Into  the  setting  sun  and 
winked  at  his  white  wife  near  the 
ringside. 

Once    the    precious    bauble    was

ANNOUNCEMENT 


Hudson  and  Bullor,  Funeral  Directors,  1911  Sut- 
ler Street,  San  Francisco,  have  begun  negotiations 
to  CHANGE  the  name  of  the  firm  to  BUTLER 
FUNERAL  HOME,  r  The  firm  was  established  in 
San  PYancisco  under  a  co-partncrahip.  and  al- 
though it  retained  the  name  under  which  it  was 
originally  established,  It  has  not  been  operated  as 
a  partnership  for  the  last  ten  years,  r  This  cor- 
rection is  being  made  in  order  to  reflect  more 
clearly  the  firm's  true  stAtus,  but  it  does  not  imply 
a  change  in  ownership  nor  in  p«rH4>nnel.

Week  of  February  7,   1935 


TjThe  growth  of  Fascism  in  America,

^UllhPig.  Whenever  a  people  arc  in  trouble 
(JIPKUy  sort,  either  from  inteinal  indigeg- 
tiSi»  or  from  the  danger  of  attack  by  an 
OOMde  country  which  might  feel  a  desire 
to -..increase  its  acreage,  the  result  ia  the 
a^ine.  The  confusion  produces  a  hundred 
Of  so  cure  all  hawksters,  complete  with 
8|0B^rian  voices,  iron  nerves  and  a  grasp 
cdf:  philology  far  more  comprehensive  than 
JjlT  tlieir  understanding  of  logic  or  eco- 
adttiics.  These  people  immediately  set  up 
,  i^gtt  boxes  and  loudly  insist  that  the  best 
VM^  to  put  out  the  fire  in  a  building  is  to 
jinM^tice  the  method  of  the  Filipino  firc- 
nm  and  pull,  down  the  whole  structure. 
Ajrtlfis  is  to  be  expected  as  in  the  natural 
or^r  of  things. 

But  the  natural  order  of  things  pro- 
a  response  to  the  sudden  violent 
Ution  that  is  interesting  in  that  the 
iVi|Mnsive  movement  isainwd  to  produce

te&T^****"  ^^^  insistant  on  preserving  the 
ll^ttiiB  quo.  That  self-conscious  fascism  is 
l^tio  means  conducive  to  such  ends  is 
•Mily  shown  in  the  illuminating  picture 
at  •»■  fascist  Italy,  a  fascist  Germany,  a 
Bavaria  and  so  on.  Usually  in  their 
[:%o  preserve  the  flag,  the  country  and 
status  quo,  the  citizens  end  up  finding 
elves  possessed  of  something  in  the 
of  a  political  organization  that  is 
Ml|^cult  to  compare  not  only  with  any- 
^Htt  that  has  gone  before  in  that  particu- 
^*eountry,  but  difficult  to  compare  with

gesting the  overthrow  by  force,  violence, 
or  other  unlawful  means,  of  the  govern- 
ment of  the  United  States  ...  is  guilty  of 
a    felony." 

And  those  who  recall  Hitler's  sensai* 
tional  burning  of  anti-Nazi  literature 
mgiht  see  the  parallel  in  this : 

"Any  such  book,  pamphlet,  document, 
or  paper  is  a  public  nuisance  and  shall  be 
suiiinianly  deoii-oyed  upon  oraer  ci  auy 
judge  or  justice  of  any  court  of  record  in 
this  .state." 

This  can  hardly  be  called  in  keeping 
with  the  Constitution  of  the  United  States' 
provision  for  freedom  of  speech  and  press. 

There  are  many  race  organizations 
that  include  as  part  of  their  program,  the 
practice  of  fighting  against  Communism, 
socialism,  atheism  and  such  attitudes. 
They  should  certainly  continue  to  fight 
for  their  beliefs.  But  we  feci  that  greater 
danger  for  the  Negro  lies  in  the  possibility 
of  a  violent  nationalism  than  could  be 
foimd  in  any  of  these,  however  offensive 
they  may  seem. 

We  cannot,  from  here,  see  anything 
but  the  darkest  tragedy  for  the  Negro 
should  fascism  come  to  America.  And  al- 
though prophecies  are  always  doubtful, 
we  feel  that  unless  efforts  are  made  which 
will  check  this  growth,  tjie  negligence  may 
be  at  the  cost  o  fa  terrible  blow  to  race 
progress  in  the  United  States. 

AS  OTHERS   SEE  US 

It  has  been  said  that  a  traveler  to  an- 
other country  brings  back  only  as  much 
as  he  takes  with  him.  Another  saying  in 
the  same  vein  has  it  that  the  best  way  to 
know  your  own  home  town  is  by  traveling. 

These  two  quotations  are  particularly 
suited  to  an  introduction  to  the  recent  re- 
port given  by  Mrs.  E.  R.  Clark,  executive 
secretary  of  the  Booker  T.  Washington 
Community  Center,  before  the  guests  pres- 
ent at  the  Annual  Banquet  of  that  organ- 
ization, and  concerning  her  observations 
and  work  during  a  six  months  leave  of 
absence  which  she  has  just  completed, 
spending  that  time  in  Cincinnati,  Ohio. 

Mrs.  Clark  in  telling  her  audience  of 

the  conditions  in  Cincinnati  gave  them  an 

insight  into  the  many  advantages  known 

to   San   Franciscans   and,   in   many   cases, 

not  taken  advantage  of. 

1      The  description  of  the  Ohio  town  and 

'especially  that  section  of  the  town  which 

would  be  called  the  slums,  was  a  graphic 

portrayal    of    conditions    of    filth,    misery 

^and  ignorance  almost  unbelievable. 

I      The    district    which    Mrs.    Qark    was 

"given  to  work  in  was  right  on  the  Ohio 

>  river.  It  was  therefore  the  Mecca  for 
thousands  of  Negroes  who  drifted  up 
f from  the  plantations  and  farms  in  search 
/of  the  benefits  they  had  been  told  existed 
in  the  cities  "up  north." 

Crossing  the  Ohio  river,  this  portion 
of  Cincinnati  was  the  first  urban  life  they 
encounteced.  And  many  of  them  settled 
there. 

This  district  had  a  population  89  per 
cent  Negro.  Cincinnati  itself  has  a  popu- 
lation of  50,000  Negroes.  This  is  a  town 
smaller  than  San  Francisco.  Yet  out  of 
this  number,  a  rough  20,000  people  are  on 
relief,  either  direct  or  work. 

The  ignorance  of  this  inflowing  ele- 
ment was  so  great  that  it  was  almost  ne- 
cessary to  start  educating  them  in  such 
small  things  as  how  to  live  in  a  home, 
use  plumbing  and  such  clcmcntals.  As  a 
result,  discouraged  and  careless  landlords 
had  neglected  their  houses  and  let  them 
run  down.  The  housing  situation  is  one  of 
the  worst  in  the  Unittid  States.  E^ight  and 
ten  people  live  in  a  two  room  flat.  Beds 
are  eve  nput  up  in  the  kitchens.  People 
knew  BO  little  about  modem  plumbing 
systems  that  they  jammed  up  the  pipes  in 
whole  sections  of  the  district.  Nearly  ev- 
eryone carried  a  cazor  or  knife  of  some 
kind.  And  hardly  any  of  them  at  all  were 
even  remotely  acquainted  with  any  of  the 
benefits  and  recreations  of  a  city.  Such 
things  as  art,  music,  home-economics, 
planned  play  and  the  thousand  and  one 
refinements  of  life  were  simply  not  in 
their   life. 

In  the  apartments  and  flats,  people 
thought  nothing  of  entering  through  the 
carelessly  unlocked  door  of  a  recently  va- 
cated neighbor's  rooms  and  tearing  out 
the  wooden  fixtures  and  boarding  to  haul 
it  away  for  firewood.  Murder,  theft  and 
rioting  was  commonplace. 

Consider  this.  And  then  consider  our 
situation  in  the  bay  area.  We  have  pleas- 
ant homes.  We  have  opportunities  for 
participation  in  every  sort  of  educational 
avocation.  Every  benefit  of  a  refined  civi- 
lization is  ours  for  the  taking.  And  yet 
how  many  of  us  take  advantage  of  the  op- 
poKutiities  ottered? 

Think  of  those  ''farm-products"  in  the 
ClndAnati  slums  who  have  not  only  been 
denisd  any  advantafes  at  all,  but  even  the 
oppoituillty  'or  acquiring  the  necessities 
of  Ufe.  Compare  thbm  with  yourself.  ''

To  dwell  in  far  places 
Where  few  feet  have  trod. 

Music  that  lights  eternal  fires 
Of  love  and  laughter,  joy  and  pain, 
And  all  the  fragrant  dreams  that  lead 
Man  thirsting  after,  from  the  hand  of

Week  of  February  15,  1935 


UNCOLN  AND  DOUGLAS 

This  week  saw  the  birthdays  of  two 
men  who  are  preeminent  in  history  for 
their  outstanding  labors  in  the  cause  of 
the  Negro. 

Lincoln  is  too  well  known  to  necessi- 
tate a  repetition  of  his  accomplishments. 
In  FVederick  Douglas,  ex-slave,  author, 
author,  lecturer,  journalist,  diplomat,  gen- 
tlerflan,  the  race  knew  a  man  who  was 
both  an  inspiration  and  an  example  of 
the  potentialities  that  lie  in  each  of  us. 
Douglas  by  demonstration,  gave  the  he  to 
all  the  stupid  claims  of  racial  inferiority, 
the  white  man's  burden,  and  the  "child- 
ishness" of  the  Negro. 

Both  of  these  men  accomplished  in- 
credible tasks  in  forwarding  the  cause  of 
the  Negro.  That  cause  has  yet  to  be  won. 
It  is  now  our  task. 

So  long  as  the  Negro  must  divide  his 
energies  between  living  for  itself,  and 
fighting  for  his  rights  and  holding  those 
rights  already  won,  he  cannot  know  com- 
plete freedom.  That  is  our  burden  and  our 
task  today.  And  however  unpleasant  we 
may  find  it.  it  is  inescapable. 

It  is  almost  futile  to  hope  to  see  an 
end  nf  ^re'udicc  in  the  U.  S.  in  the  span 
cf  our  own  iive'^.  j-jut  that  wc  can  anc. 
must  hasten  the  mcment  of  its  end  for 
some  future  generation  is  the  only  con- 
clusion of  a  social  conscious  mind. 

The  long  foad  of  history  is  graced  bj' 
the  graves  of  such  men  as  these,  who 
thought  not  of  themselves  but  could  think 
of  man  in  terms  of  generations.  Who  could 
find  content  in  the  knowledge  that  their 
hand  had  helped  to  better  the  pattern  of 
man's  final  design  in  the  long  long  cUmb 
up  from  primordial  ooze.  Theirs  is  the 
real  way  of  life.  Theirs  is  the  ultimate 
triumph.

MB.    MITCHELL'S    ATTTTDDE 

It  seems  from  here  that  in  the  matter 
of  f}ongressmSn  Mitchell,  the  newly  elect- 
ed Democratic  Representative  from  Chi- 
cago, the  Negro  Press  is  doing  a  great 
deal  of  their  fighting  in  the  dressing 
room.  Although  Mr.  Mitchell  is  still  so 
new  in  his  office  that  he  has,  as  yet,  had 
little  or  no  chance  to  indicate  his  real  in- 
tentions in  the  only  way  they  can  be  truly 
valued:  in  his  actions,  the  Press  would 
seem  to  have  snatched  at  a  few  state- 
ments given  out  in  anger  in  an  interview, 
and  blown  them  up  to  the  complete  con- 
demnation of  the  man. 

Very  much  of  what  Congressman  Mit- 
chell said  in  his  first  encounter  with  the 
fourth  estate  seems  to  us  to  err  in 
awkwardness  of  statement  rather  than  in 
confusion  of  intention.  Any  man  unaccus- 
tomed to  the  ungentle  probing  of  an  in- 
quiring reporter  might  be  excused  for  bo- 
coming  confused.  And  to  be  suddenly 
snatched  from  the  relative  obscurity  of  a 
Chicago  Law  Office  and  find  oneself  the 
cynosure  of  120  million  eyes,  smeared 
across  hundreds  of  front  pages — to  dis- 
cover that  everything  one  does,  says, 
thinks  or  feels  is  weighed  with  the  impor- 
tance of  a  statement  direct  from  the  Ora- 
cle of  E>elphi,  is  liable  to  produce  stage 
fright  in  any  man. 

The  true  measure  of  any  public  of- 
ficial is  easily  discoverable.  All  that  is  re- 
quired is  the  patience  necessary  to  permit 
fcim  to  vote  on  several  issues.  In  that  is 
0hown  the  real  character  of  the  man. 

Although  the  hypothetical  evaluation 
of  Mr.  Mitchell  by  the  Press  may  be 
proved  by  time  to  have  been  a  true  one. 
It  ia  an  injustice  not  to  reserve  our  judg- 
ment until  we  can  be  certain.

THIS  REAL  MENACE 

When  an  attack  on  that  sacred  Amer- 


if-.nn  institr.lioii,  tlic  Bill  nf  RigliLs.  bf- 
comcs  so  menacing  that  it  aroused  the 
intelligent  concern  cf  such  men  as  Bish- 
ops, heads  of  colleges  and  leaders  in  in- 
tellectual and  social  circles,  it  is  time  for 
Mr.  and  Mia.  .John  Public  to  1x>  aware 
and  on  their  guard.  Hear  Grayson  N. 
Kefauvi'f,  D<'an  of  the  School  of  Educa- 
tion of  Stanford  University: 

Ho  warned  conservatives  that  "suc- 
cessful blocking  of  orderly  change  by 
those  whose  interests  are  best  served  by 
the  status  quo  is  likely  to  force  violent 
revolution,"  and  went  on  to  show  that  or- 
derly change  can  be  brought  aboi/t  only 
if  our  young  jieople  are  taught  to  face 
the  conflicts  and  maladjustments  of  mod- 
em life  and  to  analyze  each  proposal  for 
change  fearlessly  and  with  open  minds, 
with  no  concept  withheld  from  them  be- 
cause it  is  considered  to  be  dangerous. 
Said  he: 

"Proposals  for  social  change  are  sub- 
jected to  vigorous  attack,  and  those  who 
make  the  proposals  are  sometimes  labeled 
as  un-American,  radical,  and  commimistic. 
Yet  as  one  studies  the  expressions  of  the 
early,  revered  leaders  of  our  democracy, 
one  finds  that  they  vigorously  supported 
the  idea  of  change  in  government,  even 
radical  changes,  if  the  existing  govern- 
ment did  not  serve  the  welfare  of  the 
people. 

"Lincoln,  whose  birthday  we  cele- 
brate, contended  that  'any  people  any- 
where being  inclined  and  having  the  power 
have  the  right  to  rise  up  and  shake  off 
the  existing  government  and  form  a  new 
one  that  suits  them  better.  This  is  a  most 
valuable,  a  most  sacred  right,  a  right 
which  we  hope  and  beUeve  is  to  Uberate 
the  world.'  " 

"The  preservation  of  democracy  and 
the  making  of  further  progress  towards 
the  attainment  of  its  ideals  are  dependent 
upon  having  critical  social  understanding 
widely  distributed  throughout  the  popula- 
tion. If  sufficient  social  understanding  can 
be  developed,  desirable  social  changes  can 
be  made,  violent  revolution  can  be  avoided, 
demagogues  will  experience  greater  diffi- 
culty in  securing  support  for  their  imprac- 
ticable schemes,  and  the  welfare  of  the 
people  will  be  served." 

"The  program  of  social  training  has 
been  challenged  by  certain  individuals  and 
certain  newspapers,  making  the  charge 
that  there  are  radicals  and  communists 
in  teaching  positions  and  that  subversive 
doctrines  are  being  taught.  It  is  difficult 
to  determine  the  purpose  of  this  attack — 
whether  Ihoae  jKakl.ng  it  rre  incorrectly 
informed,  or  whether  it  is  an  attempt  to 
seek  notoriety  or  to  improve  the  sale  of 
what  they  write  or  publish,  whether  it 
represents  part  of  a  fascist  movement 
to  crush  independence  in  thinking  in  the 
social  field. 

"I  have  no  fear  of  the  loyalty  of  our 
teachers  to  our  democratic  ideals.  I  am 
concerned,  however,  with  the  effect  of 
this  unwarranted  attack  in  causing  many 
teachers  to  refrain  from  considering  im- 
portant social  problems  for  fear  that  they 
will  be  criticized  or  that  their  positions 
might  be  put  in  jeopardy.  Such  an  effect 
would  seriously  devitalize  the  instruction 
in  this  important  field     at  a  time  when 

there  is  great  need  for  it."

NEGRO   AND   THE   NEW   DEAL 

Speaking  on  the  topic,  "Has  the  Negro 
Profftted  by  the  New  Deal?"  at  the 
monthly  forum  on  January  27  of  the  Lay- 
men's Union  in  New  York  City,  Elmer  A. 
Carter,  of  the  staff  of  the  National  Urban 
League  and  editor  of  Opportunity,  denied 
that  the  New  Deal  has  brought  any  ap- 
preciable betterment  in  the  fundamental 
status  of  the  Negro  in  the  United  States. 
The  same  discriminations  are  in  force  to- 
day that  were  in  existence  before  the 
NRA,  the  same  wage  differentials,  the 
same  system  of  exclusion,  explicit  or  tacit, 
from  various  types  of  industry,  the  same 
personal  insecurity.  However,  in  Mr.  Car- 
ter's opinion,  certain  definite  benefits  to- 
Negroes  have  accrued  as  a  direct  result  of 
the  New  Deal.  In  the  CCC  camps,  for  in- 
stance, 65,000  colored  youths  have  been 
employed,  who  have  sent  home  to  their 
families  over  $7,000,000.  Even  if  spread 
very  thin,  this  sum  will  have  some  effect 
on  Negto  domestic  conditions.  While  indi- 
vidual localities  have  discharged  Negroes 
in  favor  cf  whites  seeking  job — the  aim 
of  the  Blue  Shirt  agitation — there  is  no 
ascertainable  proof  that  this  has  taken 
the  form  of  a  wholesale  practice.  Garment 
workers  in  New  York  have  taken  on  5,000 
colored  men  and  women.  Through  FERA, 
thousands  of  Negro  students  have  been 
enabled  to  continue  thei  reducation;  hun- 
dreds of  colored  school  teachers  have  been 
opened  for  Negro  relief  and  social  workers 
in  a  great  number  of  localities.  Under  the 
AAA,  Negro  farmers,  the  AAA  may  in 
the  end  prove  a  benefit  to  the  rural  Negro 
by  taking  him  out  of  tenantry  and  peon- 
age, and  placing  him  in  the  class  of  the 
agricultural   wage   earner. — The   America. 


Today 

in  the  Theater 


—BY    WALTER    WAY— 

No  one  need  wonder  what  tn 
do  with  themselves  these  day.^. 
particularly  if  one  is  a  devotee  of 
the  talkies  or  even  the  stage  for 
both  fields  are  lustily  shouting 
from  Geary  Street  "all  the  wuy 
out    Market." 

The  case  of  the  backward  dra- 
ma, that  is,  the  play  written  with 
the  climax  first  and  the  cxplann- 
tion  of  the  event  that  makes  thu 
climax,  after,  is  having  its  day  iit 
ihe  Curran  with  Douglas  Mont- 
gomery, of  "Little  Man,  What 
Now?"  fame  turning  in  n  some- 
what temperamental  performance 
of  the  lead  in  "Merrily  We  Roll 
Along,"  a  serious  satire  on  friend- 
ship. There  are  only  three  more 
purformances  scheduled.  Regard- 
less of  the  unfortunate  casting  in 
xomc  parts,  the  pliiy  has  been  one 
of  the  best  drawing  c.irds  in  sev- 
eral seasons,  Down  the  street  and 
around  the  corner  Mr.  Walker 
Whiteside,  who.sc  euphonious 
name  we  have  always  envied  is 
thrilling  goodly  crowds  in  "The 
Master  of  Ballanlrac"  the  stiige 
adoption  of  Robert  Louis  Steven- 
son's magnificent  book.  There  are 
al.so  only  three  more  showings  of 
this  worth  while  production  unless 
a  held  over  is  demanded  so  a 
hurried  trip  to  the  Columbia 
wouldn't  be  at  all  amiss.  If 
Whiteside  vacates  in  time,  this 
same  theater  will  bring  to  San 
Franciscans  one  of  the  most  wide- 
ly discussed  films  of  the  season, 
Three  Songs  About  Lenin,"  to 
open  Sunday  February  17.  This  is 
me  second  Soviet  film  in  as  many 
months  and  while  we  could  not 
recommend  "Petersburg  Nights' 
as  being  overly  Interesting  we  are 
advised  fro  mthe  East  that  this 
new  effort  is  of  decidedly  fiiier 
quality.  The  title  anyway  is  in- 
genious. 

All  of  which  ought  to  satisfy 
any  legitimate  "fan"  but  there  is 
more  on  the  boards  this  week 
than  some  appetites,  or  pocket- 
books,  can  assimilate.  At  the  Al- 
cazar "Behold  the  Bridegroom"  is 
finishing  the  third  week  of  what 
looks  like  a  permanent  stock  con- 
tribution  to   our   entertainment. 


3  TORTURE  VICTIMS 
GET  11THR.  STAY 

j  NEW  YORK,  Feb.  8  -Ed 
Brown,  Yank  Ellington  and  Henry 
iShield.s,  DeKulb,  Miss,  conilcmned 
lu  hang  February  H  for  the  alleged 
murder  of  Raymond  Stewart,  a 
■  while  farmer,  were  granted  a  re- 
'  prieve  by  Governor  Conner  until 
February  21.  This  respite  will 
Kive  the  trio's  lawyers  time  to  file 
:i  writ  of  error  and  the  state  su- 
preme court  to  conslCcr  it.  This 
failing,  an  appeal  will  be  made  to 
the  supreme  court  of  the  United 
,  Slates. 

The  three  men  were  convicted 
on  the  basis  of  a  "confession" 
forced  from  them  by  beating  and 
torturing,  a  procedure  roundly 
jcondemhed  by  Supreme  Court 
Ju.sticc  W.  D.  Anderson  in  a  dis- 
I  seating  opinion.  There  was  no 
:  other  evidence  against  them.  The 
N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  has  agreed  to 
furnish  money  for  the  expense  of 
Ml  appeal  to  the  United  States 
.supreme  court.  The  lawyers  in 
the  case  are  Attorney  John  A. 
I  Clark  of  DcKalb,  and  Ex-Govern- 
|or  Earl  Brewer  of  Jackson,  Mis- 
sissippi. 

News  that  the  three  condemned 
men  might  escape  the  noose, 
reached  Meridian,  where  they  had 
been  held  in  the  county  jail  since 
the  slaying  a  year  ago,  and  mur- 
murs of  a  possible  lynching  arose. 
Acting  on  an  order  from  Judge 
W.  W.  Magrudcr  of  Starkville, 
Sheriff  B.  M.  Stephens  rushed  the 
trio  to  Jackson  la.st  Sunday  where 
they  were  lodged  in  the  strong 
Hinds  County  jail.  Judge  Magru. 
der  of  Starkville.  Sheriff  B.  M. 
iSephens  rushed  the  trio  to  Jack- 
son last  Sunday  where  they  were 
lodged  in  the  strong  Hinds  County 
jail.  Judge  Magruder  expressed 
the  view  that  the  removal  would 
be  "expedient  to  the  public  wel- 
fare."

county  and  state  chairmen  was 
issued  today  by  the  National  A.s- 
sociation  for  the  Advan<rment  of 
Colored    People. 

The  association  declared  the 
support  of  these  officials  would 
have  much  weight  with  congress- 
men and  senators.  It  urged  Its 
branches  and  colored  voters  ev- 
erywhere to  call  upon  their  local 
political  dignitaries  in  person  or 
by  letter,  asking  them  to  write 
senators  and  congressmen  from 
their  states  urging  passage  of 
the  bill.  7 «—

Before  this  column  reaches  you 
many  of  the  cuircnL  uttractloiis 
on  the  screen  will  have  given 
away  to  new  features  so  we  won't 
go  into  details  about  them  except 
to  recommend  "Devil  Dogs  of  the 
Air"  with  James  Cagney  and  Pat 
O'Brien  as  good  theater,  for  the 
children  and  lovers  of  adventure 
pictures;  'The  Right  to  Live,"  be- 
cause of  Colin  Clive  and  Joseph- 
ine Hutchison,  who  was  here  last 
season  with  LeGalliene  in  a  brack- 
et of  Ibsen  dramas;  "Rumba," 
notable  because  of  the  appearance 
of  Margo,  a  pleasant  young  lady 
who  may  or  not  be  a  star  one  of 
these  days  and  last  but  certainly 
not  least  the  excellently  done 
"Clive  of  India,"  with  as  fine  nn 
actor  as  Hollywood  can  boast  of, 
Ronald  Colman  as  the  ambitious, 
ruthless  Clive.  This  particular  fea- 
ture is  now  at  the  United  Artists 
and  will  probably  be  there  for 
several  weeks  to  come. 


TALLAHASSEE,  .  Fla.  -  In  an 
opinion  which  sharply  scores  the 
common  police  practice  of  using 
the  vagrancy  law  indiscriminately, 
the  Supreme  Court  of  Florida  has 
reversed  the  decision  handed 
I  down  in  the  Orlando  court  against 
E,  L.  Bland  and  his  wife  Lillian 
I  Bland,  The  coupl?,  who  have  been 
;:ctlvc  in  organizing  workers, 
were  arrested  on  a  charge  o'  vag- 
rancy and  sentenced  to  pay  a  $50 
'  fine  or  serve  50  days   in   jail. 

"The  complaint  on  which  the 
petitioner  was  tried  wholly  fails 
to  state  an  offense  against  the 
law,  neither  was  it  supported  by 
any  valid  evidence  whatever," 
says  the  Supreme  Court  In  its 
decision.  "Rarely,  if  ever,  has  a 
more  arbitrary  high-handed  exer- 
cise of  the  police  power  been 
brought  to  the  attentibn  of  this 
court.  It  appears  that  petitioner 
lived  in  a  nearby  community,  had 
a  means  of  support,  had  a  perfect 
right  to  be  where  he  was  at  the 
time  he  was  arrested,  was  not  mo- 
lesting anyone,  and  had  no  sus- 
picion pointed  to  him  as  a  crimi- 
nal character.  There  was  no  basis 
for  his  arrest  and  there  was  less 
for  the   conviction," 


"Imitation  of  Life"  afforded 
colored  performers  a  better 
chance  to  sho  wreal  histrionic 
ability  than  any  other  picture 
produced  in  Hollywood,  according 
to  many  reviewers  of  screen  fare.

BENEFIT  DINNER 


This  month's  "Stage"  Is  filled 
to  overflowing  with  glowing  ac- 
counts of  New  York  openings  and 
closings  with  the  accent  on  the 
latter  but  nothing  marks  this 
season  as  outstanding  as  Noel 
Coward's  ascension  from  the 
throne  of  whatever  kingdom  he 
was  lord  and  master  of.  His  lat- 
est play  "Point  Valalne,"  accord- 
ing to  the  Broadway  critics  Is  a 
forced,  111  humored,  bawdy,  half 
comlc-traglc  account  of  a  lady 
who  rum  a  hotel  and  at  the  mo- 
ment is  mIstreM  to  a  waller  This 
makes  for  Wonderful  drama  until 
the  other  man  comes  along,  and 
the  comely  lass  finds  she  really 
loves  this  new  here  with  the  re- 
sult that  she.  he  or  the  waiter 
Jumpe  off  the    "point "  to  close  the 


clever  Mr.  Coward"8  latest  dramat- 
ic offering.  The  author  of  "Vor- 
tex," "Private  Lives,"  and  "De- 
sign for  Living"  had  better  look 
to  his  alurels  or  he'll  be  following 
the  example  of  Elmer  Rice  and 
renouncing  the  theater  for  In- 
gratitude. 

Katherine  Cornell,  is  reported  In 
BalUmore  with  her  "Barrett's," 
'"Romeo  and  Juliet"  and  "Roser-

Hayes  who  is  bringing  her  Thea- 
ter Guild  production  of  "Mary  of 
Scotland"  which  we  had  the  plea- 
sure of  seeing  locally  not  long 
ago  with  Helen  Gahagan  as  the 
unhappy  Scot.  This  time,  the  In- 
comparable Hayes  will  suffer 
tearfully  through  Maxwell  Ander- 
eon's  well  written  melodrama  as 
Mary  and  Pauline  Fredrlcks  may 
or  may  not  be  seen  here  as  the 
scheming  Queen  Elizabeth,  "With-

_,.J[NSTITUnONS  OF  LEARNING  are 
tbe.  last  places  in  Anwrica  one  would 
inflect  of  harboring  the  mcmster  called 
^Oolor  Prejudice."  Yet,  the  Aframerican 
«^  last  Wednesday  requested  service  in 
a  Iwrber  shop  on  the  University  of  CaU- 
fKhlia  campus  discovered  that  the  appear- 
Ifme  of  liberality  is  n(^  guarantee  that 
**the  stuff  is.  there."  He  was  refused  a 
■have. 

>  Thanks  to  the  National  Student 
£iagie,  his  case  will  be  carried  to  the 
Students'  ElKccutive  Ciommittee,  and  if  no 
•itiafaction  is  received,  to  the  adminis- 
tntion.  It  |s  not  probable  that  the  club 
«f  Aframerican  students  on  the  campus 
lidl  have  a  strong  representation  on  the 
It^asfue  delegation,  a  fact  which  favors 
^  presumption  that  the  delegation  will 
Mpt  be  as  successful. 

,  .But  whether  successful  or  not,  the 
Laasue's  efforts  on  behalf  of  a  cause  so 
ftel  to  Af ramericans  recommend  it  as  an 
Mipiiization  of  singular  courage  and  f ore- 
1101^  In  its  campaign  against  compulsory 
mtttary  training  for  students,  against  the 
•iVI»«a8ion  of  student  and  professional 
lEraedom  of  speech,  it  needs  assistance. 
Lst  the  Aframerican  students  reciprocate! 
Certainly  their  interests,  both  now  and 
later,  are  served  neither  by  war  nor  by 
til*  aupitreaaion  of  constitutional  liberties. 
Aa  a  matter  of  fact,  in  case  of  war,  they 
win  be  either  the  first  targets  of  the 
oaemy's  gu|is,  or  the  caretakers  of  me«s- 
rooffis  and  stables.  And  they  know  froml 
Mqierience  ^lat  enforcement  of  proscrip-i 
tlve  measures  always  begins  with  "Amer- 
km'a  Tenth  Man." 

Tliere  is  another  reason,  moreover, 
why  they  need  the  National  Student 
XiMigue  as  mich,  if  not  more,  than  the 
Ltague  nee^  them.  In  omicentrating  on 
tih0  iHtiader,  more  univeraally  significant 
i«ttvitiM  of  the  League,  they  will  lose 
Mt. sense  of  futility,  that  distorted  per- 

Eso  often  engendered  by  preoocu- 
with  the  racial  pibblem.  The 
ia  Qot  only  an  avenue  to  broader 
Inpipieaoe  find  satisfying  activity;  it  is 
%r  escape  from  isolation.

Stale  is  merely  an  extension,  is  the  one 
great  racial  cure-all.  Startling  though  the 
proposition  may  be,  wc  submit  that  these 
persons  have  no  authority  for  advancing 
an  opinion  on  the  subject.  What  authority 
has  any  man  for  an  opinion  except  knowl- 
edge? And  how  else  can  knowledge  be  ob- 
tained except  by  the  sacrifice  and  labor 
which  all  but  a  few  men  are  unwilling  to 
give? 

This  inability  to  appraise  intelligence, 
this  disrespect  for  Mind  and  the  attributes 
of  Reason,  is  not  a  peculiarity  of  Afra- 
mericans.  It  is  a  property  of  the  modem 
temper.  But  it  makes  the  Aframerican's 
problem  more  acute. 

What  is  to  become  of  his  intellectuals? 
Why  have  them  at  all  if  they  are  not  to 
be  allowed  to  serve?  Are  the  opinions  of 
a  DuBois  and  a  Johnson  to  be  mocked  and 
berated  by  fools  who  speak  with  the  as- 
surance of  knowledge  and  the  finahty  of 
wisdom  ?  Strangely  enough,  these  are  ques- 
tions only  intelligent  men  can  answer.

MIGRATION  TO  CALIFORNIA 

VISIONS  OF  hordes  upon  hordes  of 
Texas  and  Alabama  farmers  sweeping 
down  on  California  follows  a  recent  an- 
notmcement  that  manufacturers  are  mar- 
keting a  cotton-picking  machine  to  do  the 
work  now  done  by  hand.  Already  econo- 
mists and  state  officials  are  wondering 
how  they  can  handle  the  increased  popu- 
lation. 

Although  displacement  of  workers  will 
not  take  effect  immediately,  it  is  time  now 
to  plan  for  the  migration  which  is  certain 
to  begin  in  1936.  That  the  largest  propor- 
tion of  this  influx  will  be  Aframerican 
goes  without  saying.  It  is  not  unreason- 
able to  believe  that  California  may  expect 
her  Aframerican  population  to  double  in 
the  next  five  years. 

Several  consequences  of  such  a  phe- 
nomenon come  readily  to  mind.  Most  im- 
portant is  the  certain  increase  in  race 
friction,  with  its  resultant  discriminatory 
and  proscriptive  measures.  As  a  conse- 
quence of  this,  the  isolationist  trend  al- 
ready conspicuous  in  large  population 
centers  will  manifest  itself.  Jim  Crow  Af- 
ramerican institutions  and  organization^ 
will  multiply  and  prosper.  Little  Harlems 
will  spring  up  overnight;  and  a  petty 
bourgeois  class  will  fatten  on  the  lean 
sides  of  hard-working  domestics  and  la- 
borers. The  stage  i9  now  ready  to  ring 
down  this  last  curtain  on  the  Aframeri- 
can's prospects  of  a  cosmopolitan  life. 
When  San  Francisco  becomes  conscious 
that  her  colored  citizens  are  "Negroes," 
veto  of  the  hope  of  homogeneity  will  be 
unanimous.  The  entire  United  States  will 
stand  committed  to  bi-racialism — a  society 
in  which  two  racial  groups  are  ever  dis- 
tinct, with  the  weaker  group  consigned 
for  all  time  to  a  status  of  servility  and 
Inferiority. 

There  are  already  those  asking  "What 
can  we  do  to  stop  this?" 

One  thing  is  plain:  it  cannot  he  stop- 
ped by  ordinary  measures.  Small,  impo- 
tent organizations  cannot  halt  it.  The 
Church  cannot  stay  it.  Newspapers,  fra- 
ternal orders,  social  clubs,  individual  phil- 
anthropists, or  all  of  these  forces  in  com- 
bination, cannot  stop  it.  It  is  something 
too  gigantic.  It  is  a  decree  of  liistory,  the 
mexorable  march  of  Destiny. 

To  contravene  or  circumvent  historical 
destiny,  one  must  strike  at  basic  causes. 
And  in  this  special  case,  those  causes  are 
not  hard  to  find.  Beneath  the  coming  mi- 
gration, behind  the  trend  toward  bi-racial- 
ism, the  same  causes  are  operative.  They 
are  economic — a  matter  of  struggles  be- 
tween three  groups.  One  group  fights  an- 
other for  bread,  clothing,  shelter.  A  third 
group  keeps  them  fighting  each  other,  and 
in  turn  fights  them  both — for  profits. 
Eliminate  the  third  group,  and  there  is  no 
fighting! 

The  solution  is  not  as  easy  as  the 
statement  of  it.  But  when  thousands  on 
thousands  of  Aframericans  begin  arriving 
in  California,  easy  or  difficult,  this  solu- 
tion will  recommend  itself  to  the  people  of 
this  state.

Today 

in  the  Theater 


-BY    WALTER    WAY—  ' 

Mason  Roberson,  who  wields  the 
editorial  axe  of  this  paper,  armed 
himself  last  week  with  bis  finer 
sensibilities  and  buckety-bucket- 
ied,  in  the  approved  Woollcott 
manner  to  the  Opera  House  to 
hear  and  see  Stravinsky,  the  mod- 
ern; while  this  humble  and  some- 
what disgruntled  reviewer  of  this 
and  that  contented  himself  sitting 
Indian  fashion  on  Nob  Hill,  the 
comfortable  confines  of  the  Pair- 
mont  Theater  as  his  teepee  and 
the  eternal  fires  of  Ibsen  the 
principal  object  for  being  there  in 
the  first  place. 

Many  moons  have  passed  since 
this  village  has  thrilled  to  the 
spoken  word  of  Cie  Norwegian 
and  while  we  did  not  exactly 
"thrill"  at  Baldwin  McGaw's  read- 
ing of  Peer  Gynt  we  were  pleased 
and  mightily,  with  his  conception 
of  the  play  as  a  whole,  the  de- 
lightful staging  which,  in  some 
instances,  considering  the  small- 
ness  of  the  platform,  was  miracu- 
lous. We  must  thank  FYederIck 
Stover  for  this  and  at  the  same 
time  commend  him  for  bis  inter- 
pretation of  the  Troll   King. 

It  would  be  impossible  to  com- 
ment on  all  the  important  speak- 
ing parts  of  the  play  but  we  must 
Include  Dorothea  Johnston,  Peer's 
mother,  who  gave  a  very  poor 
first  act  following  it  with  im- 
provement which  culminated  in 
the  beautiful  "Sonia  Moria  Castle" 
scene;  Emma  Knox,  as  the  lovely 
Solveig  who  more  than  any  other 
character  caught  the  simple,  pure, 
direct  charm  that  is  peculiarly 
Scandinavian;  Ruth  Ryan,  as  the 
Green  Clad  Woman,  who  on  sev- 
eral occasions  dropped  out  of  her 
grotesque  character  into  the  pro- 
per young  lady  of  the  drawing 
room. 

Having  Intimated  that  we  were- 
n't pleased  with  McGaw's  exhibi- 
tion of  the  titular  role  of  the  mad 
scamp  of  Norway  we  feel  that 
his  evident  hours  of  labor  on  the 
part  deserve  nothing  but  con- 
structive criticism.  We  might  say 
that  he  overacted  in  striving  to 
capture  the  youthfulness  that  be- 
longs to  the  character  and  sug- 
gest that  a  less  pedantic  forma- 
tion and  duration  of  facial  ges- 
tures, an  easier  manner  of  finding 
"spots,"  and  that  the  summation 
of  all  the  bitter  years  of  Peer 
Gynt's  life  be  shown  more  in- 
tensely in  the  character  as  he  ap- 
pears as  an  old  man.  A  white 
wig  will  denote  age  but  It  will 
never  suffice  for  suffering.  As  to 
the  settings,  the  scene  in  the  hall 
of  the  mountain  king  might  get 
along  with  fewer  "supers,"  the 
modern  selection  accompanying 
the  ship  scene  ought  to  be  thrown 
in  the  general  direction  of  San 
Francisco  Bay  and  Harry  Hamil- 
ton, who  appears  twice  in  dances 
could  go  o^  forever  without  hurt- 
ing ours  or  the  audiences  feelings. 
If  these  things  were  done,  the 
undertaking  of  the  masterpiece 
might  be  Justified;  as  it  sUnda  it 
is  too  mucb  a  sacrifice  to  modern 
ism,  particularly  in  Interpretation 
of  line  and  addition  of  slang, 
which  adds  no  humor  as  it  is 
evidently  supposed  to  and  lessens 
our   respect   for   the   interpreters. 

The  production  will  1>e  repeated 
March   1   to  6. 

Briefly,  "Three  Songs  of  L«nln" 
is  nothing  but  pure  propaganda, 
probably  an  attempt  by  the  Soviet 
to  beat  the  forthcoming  filming 
of  the  life  of  King  Oeorga,  in 
time  and  artistry.  No  one  can 
deny  that  It  won  in  the  first  di- 
vision but  its  place  in  the  second, 
even  without  the  lienefit  of  Com- 
parison, Is  low.  The  story  of  Len- 
in's life  is  undoubtedly  filled  with 
drama  that  lends  .Ttelf  willingly 
to  any  camera  but  the  Jerky  man- 
ner in  which  the  Russians  told  it 
made  the  whole  thing  a  little  im- 
possible to  follow.  TTje  Hrst  two 
songs  deal  with  the  leader's  free- 
ing of  the  E^astern  Russian  and 
women;  the  second  with  his  death 
and  funeral.  These  are  told  with 
an  ample  supply  of  cloae-upa  of 
types  ot  Russians  whieh  skiwed 
the  whole  action  tremendously. 
The  funeral  was  impressive  and 
touched  the  heart  of  raaoy  io  the 
audience  but  again  the  close-up 
was  too  frequently  used.  Anyone, 
regardless  of  his  inUnsity  of  be- 
lief in  Russian  politics  is  apt  to 
get  bored  with  constant  showings 
of  a  corpse.  The  third  song  has 
breadth,  feeling  and  power.  It's 
principal  objective  was  to  show 
how  murb  Russisni  of  all  classes 
have  galBed  through  the  teach 
Ings  of  Lenin.  It  proved  iU  point 
and  brought  prolonged  applause 
and  ohaara  from  tlie  audience. 
The  spectacle  of  great  factories, 
happy  workmen,  some  of  whom 
may  or  may  not  have  been  hire- 
lings ot  the  Russian  Art  Theater, 
was  well  the  more  tedious  parts 
of  the  picture  and  lu  only  fault 
was  tha  Injection  of  captions  on 
the  acraao  whieh  in  many  cases

.When  you  talk  of  fine  cooking  you're  talking  of 
the  South.  And  when  you  talk  of  the  South 
you're  talking  of  fine  cookiti^  No  picture  of 
"Southern  hospitality"  is  complete  without  a 
table  laden  with  the  good  tift\g»  only  Southern 
cooks  can  produce.  Men  write  poems  about 
Southern  cooking.  They  sing  songs  abou(  it 
Their  hearts  are  in  Dixie.  Because  their  hearts 
are  near  their  stomachs.  S9vithem  cooking  is 
the  tastiest,  most  economical  in  the  United 
States.  II  The  Spokesman  is  proud  of  this.  We're 
proud  of  the  fact  that  Aframerican  cooks  have 
made  this  important  addition  to  the  most  im- 
portant art  in  the  world.  We  want  to  encourage 
the  development  of  Southern  cooking,  and  help 
the  general  spread  of  knowledge  concerning  it. 
And  YOU  can  help  us.  H  We're  going  to  give 
away  a  group  of  valuable  prizes  for  the  bast 
recipes  submitted  to  us  by  Spokesman  readers. 
Judges  are  being  chosen  to  decide  the  winners 
of  the  prizes  to  be  given  by  your  neighborhood 
merchants,  whose  bargains  printed  in  The 
Spokesman  will  give  you  valuable  hints.  !!NEXT 
WEEK.  WATCH  FOR  THESE  BARGAINS.

the  achievement  of  greater  things 
than  we  would  have  ordinarily 
desired. 

In  reality,  therefore,  a  horo- 
scope is  merely  a  circle  of  neces- 
sity, an  accurate  mirror  like  re- 
flection revealing  to  us  not  only 
the  quality  but  also  the  condition 
of  our  entire   intricate   makeup. 

Surely  should  we  not  then  use 
such 'a  horoscope  as  we  would  a 
mirror;  studying  its  reflection  to 
note  our  deficiencies  and  to  im- 
prove upon  them  according  to 
the|r    respective    requirements. 

FVillowIng    is    the    Astro-Analysis 
of    this    week. 
Mar.     Z — Venus     in     good     aspect 

promises  a  good  aocial  day: 
bringing  with  it  a  surprise  in  the 
form  of  an  uninvited  but  most 
welcome  guest.  Be  alert  aod  dis- 
creet however  this  pleasant  day 
14  overshadowed  by  an  adverse 
Uranian  influx  tending  to  indicate 
possible  rebellion  of  one  of  your 
guests  and  subsequent  disruption 
of  your  party. 
IVIar.    !l— An    odd    day    under    the 

spell  of  which  you  want  to  do 
and  say  a  lot  Don't  do  it.  This 
pep  and  driving  force  you  feel  is 
of  a  good  Martian  nature;  not 
to  be  used  however  in  business  or 
intellectual  pursuits  as  other  as- 
pects forbid  it.  Sports  and  hard 
work  will  absorb  and  use  this 
energy  constructively. 
Mar.     4 — Be     on     guaird.     A     good 

Uranian  influx  tempts  you  to 
seek  progress  and  new  undertak- 
ings. To  be  sure,  you  will  find 
muc{i  offered  you;  but  beware  of 
deception  as  Indicated  by  other 
powerful  aspects. 
Mar.  5— Qood  solar  and  Jupiterian 

influences     incline     you     toward 
generosity    and    other    means    of 
spending   money.   You    seem   to   be 
taken   by  a   plan  offered  you.   Ex- 
ercise 'the  utmost  caution  as  there  I 
■till   exists   a   strong   deceptive    in-  { 
fluence.    Weigh    your    plans    care- 
fully to   ascertain   their   practical- 
ity. 
M4r.    •— Tou    arc    lonely    and    in 

need  of  recreation.  Very  well, 
but  take  care  to  make  your  calls 
strictly  social.  Refrain  from  dis- 
cussing your  business  wltb  some- 
one whom  it  does  not  concern. 
Mar.     1 — An     excellent    Mercurlan 

influx  renders  you  mentally  a- 
lert  and  In  want  of  expression. 
You  may  speak  and  write  to  your 
advantage.  An  adverse  Martian 
Influeoce  adds  fire  to  your  speech. 
It  is  well  to  msike  your  speech 
fiery;  but  guard  against  it  'becom- 
ing venomous. 

Mar.  t— Uranus  in  Saturn  favora- 
bly aspected  indicate  a  .  strong 
tendency  toward  cbaqgea  and  ex- 
pansion. The  day  is  apt  to  bring 
on  uBcxpeoled  but  fortunate 
change.  Contracts  for  either  buy- 
ing or  selling  are  favored  and 
may   be   entered   iDto.

considering  the  fact  Uiat  fome

By   C>ril   Br^ga   in   the   Dally 
VVorker 

Government  dlacrlmi  nation 
against  Negroes  once  more  stands 
exposed — this  time  in  the  func- 
tioning of  the  Home  Owners  Loan 
Corporation. 

'The  HOIX;  is  one  of  the  many 
alphabetical  panaceas  set  up  by 
President  Roosevelt,  which  are 
functioning  mostly  on  paper.  The 
H0I^  is  supposed  to  be  the  an- 
swer to  the  prayers  of  tens  of 
thousands  of  harassed  small  home 
owners  threatened'  with  the  loss 
of  their  homes  by  foreclosure.  In 
most  cases,  these  homes  repre- 
sent the  life  savings  of  these 
small    homeowners. 

The  case  of  Daisy  Jones,  41 
West  ISlst  sL,  New  York  City,  is 
typical  of  the  attitude  of  the 
HOLC  toward  small  home  owners. 
It  is  typical,  particularly,  of  the 
widespread  discrimination  by 
HOIX;   officials   against   Negroes. 

Miss  Jones,  a  Negro  worker, 
slaved  and  sacrificed  all  ber  life 
to  put  a^ide  "something  for  old 
age,"  under  a  system  which 
throws  its  aged  worlters  on  the 
scrapheap.  Today  she  is  facing 
not  only  the  loss  of  her  home,  but 
of  her  health  and  the  only  means 
of  livelihood  available  to  her  dur- 
ing the  present,  prolonged  dislo- 
cation of  capitalist  Industry,  with 
its  unemployment  and  suffering 
for  over  14,000,000  workers  and 
their  dependents. 
RV1JE8  AGAINST  NIEOBOES 

Ifiss  Jones  Is  unemployed,  but 
because  she  is  a  home  owner,  she 
cannot  get  relief.  And  because  she 
has  to  take  In  paying  lodgers,  the 
HOLC  now  rules  that  she  cannot 
get  a  government  loan. 

This  ruling  is  made  under  a 
new  HOLC  provision,  popularly 
koown  in  Harlem  as  the  "Room- 
ing House  Alibi."  It  was  adapted 
several  moathji  after  Miss  Jones 
bad  made  her  application  for  a 
loao,  but  it  has  t>een  invoked 
against  this  woman  as  against 
thousands  of  other  Negro  small 
homeowners. 
Against      what      group      la      the

lodgers,  with  resultant  overcrowd- 
ing and  increase  in  the  death  and

The  Rooming  House  Alibi  was

New  DeaJ  meant  a  new  chance 
for  them,  had  made  applications 
for  loans  In  the  effort  to  save 
their  homes.  The  government  and 
its  HOtC  found  the  Rooming

for  Its  discrimination  against  the 
Nogro  saaall  home  owners. 
A  'tYPICAL  CASE

cal  of  this  tleUberate  anti-Negro 
discrimination.  For  almost  a  year

trial  of  15  workers  accused  of 
Criminal  Syndicalism  Is  how  in  Its 
sixth  week,  with  Sam  Darcy,  Com- 
munist candidate  for  governor  on 
the  stand  for  the  defense.  I'he 
most  startling  fact  about  this  sig- 
nificant labor  case  is  that  the 
defendants  are  being  tried  not 
for  overt  acts  or  for  crimes  com- 
mitted, but  for  holding  and  teach- 
ing certain  beliefs. 

Each  day  of  the  trial  makes 
more  obvious  the  frame-up  nature 
of  the  charges.  Although  the  de- 
fendants are  charged  with  "ad- 
vocating the  overthrow  of  the 
government  by  the  use  of  force 
and  violence,"  the  real  reason  that 
they  are  today  facing  a  possible 
sentence  of  3  to  42  years  in  prison 
is  their  labor  activities  io  Califor- 
nia. Most  of  the  defendants  have 
been  active  In  organizing  thou- 
sands of  agricultural  workers  of 
this  state  to  l>etter  their  condi- 
tions of  work  and  life.  Three  of 
them,  Pat  Chambers,  CaroHne 
Decker,  and  Jack  Warnick,  have 
been  arrested  before  for  leader- 
ship in  agricultural  strikes  in  this 
state.  The  powerful  agricultural 
interest,  represented  by  the  Asso- 
ciated Farmers  Inc.,  the  Indus- 
trial Association  and  the  other 
reactionary  forces  have  a  most 
active  interest  in  seeing  that  con- 
viction is  secured. 
RACIAL  PREJUDICE 

The  outcome  of  this  trial  will 
affect  labor  and  liberal  organ- 
isations, Negro  as  well  as  white. 
A  conviction  of  the  defendents 
will  undoubtedly  be  followed  by 
further  suppressive  measures 
against  any  groups  that  protest 
present  day  conditions. 
Of  special  interest  to  Aframeri- 
cans,  is  the  definite  racial  preju- 
dice evident,  particularly  during 
the  early  course  of  tBe  trial.  The 
prosecution  has  read  excerpts 
from  Communist  publications  dis- 
torting the  meaning  in  most  cases 
but  slyly  stressing  all  references 
to  equality  of  the  races.  More 
than  once  the  prosecution  has  in- 
timated that  the  defendonts  are

Big    Pish    Hooks     Himself    While 

Bed  Cap  Performs  Emergency 

Operation 

While  trawling  for  striped  bass 
along  Marin  shores  last  Sunday, 
Bob  Strode  dropped  a  laOZ  sinker 
with  a  no.  9  hook  attached  but 
the  hook  took  a  flop  and  plunged 
deep  into  the  palm  of  bis  hand. 
Gene  Hurt  immediately  grabbed 
bis  emergency  kit,  cut  the  eye  of 
the  hook,  split  the  hand  and 
pulled  the  hook  through.  It  was 
necessary  to  return  to  Oakland 
and  send  Bob  to  Hlghlsuid  hospi- 
tal where  four  stitches  were  tak- 
en In  his  hand.  The  doctor  com- 
mended   the    first    aid    treatment. 

No,  they  got  no  fish.  Bob  Strade 
was  the  only  sucker  oaugbt. 


The  proMoutlon  had  the  au- 
durity  to  preaeat  ax  wltiipsaes 
Doiiir  of  the  very  vigiliuites  who 
imd  taken  part  In  the  murder 
of  two  workers  at  Plxlfy,  dur- 
iiiK  the  cotton  strike  of  1BS3.  As 
niu  pointed  out  by  the  defense 
attorneys  there  is  a  dose  re- 
M-inblance  between  the  vlgi^te 
group*  which  take  the  law  In 
their  own  hands"  and  the  lynch 
nioln  of  the  south.  From  these 
same  vigilantes  the  admission 
was  secured  that  the  cotton 
strike,  in  which  10,000  Mexican, 
white  and  Negro  workers  had 
Uken  part,  a  20  per  cent  in- 
crease In  wages  was  obtained. 
Now,  the  prosecution  attacks 
the  Cannery  and  Agricultural 
Workers  Industrial  llnion,  which 
led  the  strike,  and  attempta  to 
make  membership  in  this  organ- 
iuition  a  cmire. 

It  must  be  remembered  that 
these  defendants  are  on  trial  for 
the  political  and  social  principles 
that  they  uphold.  Not  the  least 
of  these  principles  and  one  par- 
ticularly attacked  by  the  prosecu- 
tion, is  their  belief  in  the  com- 
plete   equality    of    the    Negro    and

other  than  San  Francisco,  and  no 
one  to  give  our  subscription  to,  if 
w*  desired  to  subscribe.  After 
some  discussion  among  the  boys 
we  finally  began  trying  to  guess 
who  was  who.  Some  of  the  boys 
have  a  strain  of  Indian  blood  In 
their  veins  and  therefore  prefer  to 
earn  their  name,  or  title,  rather 
than  have  It  given  to  them.  The 
name  of  the  paper  was  quite  sug- 
gestive, and  then  the  boys  finally 
connected  several  amqng  them- 
selves. But  Little  Sgt.  Noah  John- 
son Is  suspected  of  tielng  the  man 
tliat  the  guilty  finger  points  to. 
Oh  yes — the  name   of  the   paper. 

The  8.  F.  TatUer;  and  I  kind 
of  thought  the  boys  mode  a  bod 
guess,  but  being  no  Huey  Lony,  I 
had    to   join'  the    majority. 


The  recent  activltlas  of  a  heart- 
less dog  poisoner  operating  in  the 
Eiast  bay  has  caused  much  com- 
ment, as  to  what  the  motive  of 
such  a  person  could  be.  Well  I 
have  a  suggestion  to  make:  at  the 


home    of    one    Jim    Payne    on    last   ^■ 


He  was  asked:  "Would  you  be 
prejudiced  against  me  if  it  should 
be  brought  out  in  the  trial  that  I 
favored  the  right  of  Intermarriage 
between  Negroes  and  whites? 
"No,"  responded  the  prospective 
juror,  "but  I  ain't  got  no  use  for 
'nigger-lovers'"! 

This  open  expression  of  blind 
race  prejudice  is  all  the  more  sig- 
nificant when  it  is  remembered 
that  most  of  the  jury  Is  made  up 
of  similar  thinking  individuals 
The  jury  box  does  not  contain  one 
worker  or  small  farmer,  nor  one 
Negro,  but  is  composed  of  retiring 
clerks,  officials  on  pensions,  rela- 
tives of  policemen,  friends  of  the 
prosecution,  etc.  Practically  the 
entire  jury  was  selected  by  the 
prosecution  after  the  defence  had 
exhausted  its  challenges.  One  of 
the  women  on  the  jury  has  openly 
expressed  her  belief  that  Negroes 
are  not  entitled  to  poTTTieal  equall

Sunday  afternoon,  there  gathered 
some  12  of  the  foremost  bridge 
players  of  the  east  bay.  Of  course, 
they  were  all  men.  The  game  was 
to  last  from  2  p.  m.  to  6  p.  m., 
but  the  play  was  so  interesting 
and  the  shrimp  cocktail  and  beer 
so  good,  the  boys  just  kept  up 
the  battle  until  about  T:SO  p.  m. 

Before  this  hour,  poor  Mrs. 
Payne  was  hoarse  from  answering 
the  phone.  Everyone  In  the  house 
hod  received  a  phone  call  but 
Calhoun  and  knowing  how  busy 
the  line  had  been,  I  phoned  my- 
self. 

Those  present  were.  Major  Lov- 
ing. Col.  Green,  J.  Sykes,  J. 
Pajrne,  C.  Robinson,  BUI  Ander- 
son, Frank  Fields,  Bveratt  Mack. 
Mr.  Butcher,  Bill  fUckmond,  Thad 
Dawson,  and  yes,  I  was  there. 
Ed  Faucett  came  for  a  few  min- 
utes,   just 

two  tricks  while  plsyiog  the  fifth 
hand,  and  he  was  lbs  first  man 
to    be    put    In    the    dog    house    by 


McAllister,  the  reactionary  of- 
ficial, who  in  the  last  election 
was  ousted  by  the  people  of  Sac- 
ramento as  District  Attorney  has 
been  appointed  as  special  prose- 
cutor to  continue  the  cose.  The 
prosecution  at  the  time  it  closed 
its  argument  had  presented  18 
witnesses  consisting  mainly  of 
stool  pIgeoDt,  police  officers,  "red 


way  of  the  phone. 


Oh  yes,  the  dog  poisoner!  Now 
with  these  gentlemen  oil  In  the 
dog  bouse,  the  poor  canines  had 
to  hit  the  street  and  some  sap 
thought  too  many  dogs  on  the 
street  was  a  dangerous  thing. 
Thus  the  poisoner! 


Jim  Payne  has  one  of  the  most 
intelligent  dogs  I  ever  saw.  He 
long  enough  to  los(^was  lying  on  the  front  porch 
asleep  when  I  left.  Even  Bill  An- 
derson got  called  from  somewhere. 
The  poor  dogs  have  to  suffer.

bulged,  waa  caved  In  like  an  em-

stray  away  from  the  righteous 
path  you  must  pay  the  penclty 
that  nature  exacts.  But  when  you 
pass  the  three  score  mark,  fond 
memories  are  a  treasure  that  one 
should  guard.   Ask  Sheriff  Hunter.

are  to  watch  the'  ponies  and  take

Question  of  LaFerne's 
Friendship  Unimportant 

EDITORIAL 

Cliiinpurlanl  to  Ih;  gruup  of  workers  employed  by  H.  LaFerne 
ta  the  question  of  whether  or  not  be  ii  their  frlecd.  To  avoid  or- 
gUBtent,  let  us  assume  that  Mr.  LaFerne  is  genuinely  humanitar- 
ian, that  he  sympathized  with  Aframerican  worlcers  before  he  em- 
plojred  them,  that  he  will  continue  to  champioa-^eir  rights  If  and 
witen  he  no  longtr  employh  them,  that  he  is  one  of  those  exceed- 
ingly rare  employers  in  the  history  of  industrialism  who,  dlsre- 
garding  his  own  interest  in  profits,  operates  his  business  with 
the  sole  purpose  of  aiding  the  unemployed.  Give  him  the  benefit 
of  all  these  doubts,  and  then  what  have  we?  Exactly  nothing! 

The  Spokesman  does  not  presume  to  judge  Mr.  LaFerne's  sin- 
cerity or  lack  of  it,  but  it  does  submit  that  there  is  but  one  im- 
portant question,  and  only  »ne,  confronting  the  workers  in  the  Lc- 
Feme  restaurants,  namely,  the  question  of  organization.  SHOULD 
THEY   ORGA^^2;E,   AND   TO   WHAT  PURPOSE? 

Be  LaPerne  friend  or  exploiter,  immediate  organlEation  of  his 
employees  is  necdssary.  If  he  is  using  Aframerican  workers  be- 
cause they  are  cheap  labor,  on  that  basis  only,  and  not  because 
of  friendship,  is  their  employment  assured?  He  needs  them  now; 
they  are  building  his  business,  adding  daily  to  his  capital  invest- 
ment. When  that  investment  is  large  enough  to  allow  a  fair  pro- 
fit despite  increased  labor  costs,  he  will  be  independent  of  Negro 
workers,  able  to  pay  them  less  and  work  them  longer  and  harder, 
able  to  discharge  them  without  a  pang  of  "packetbook-conscience". 
At  the  present  time,  however.  Employer  LaPerne  is  a  smart  man. 
And  smart  men  don't  kill  the  geese  that  lay  the  eggs  of  gold — 
especially  when  the  barnyard  is  organized.  Killing  one  goose  might 
make  the  whole  flock  take  wings  and  carry  their  eggs  out  of  reach. 
On  the  other  hand,  if  LaFerne  intends  "doing  right  by  our  boys", 
It's  no  more  than  fair  for  the  workers  to  give  him  the  benefit  of 
all  their  skill  and  loyalty.  This  can  best  be  done  within  an  organ- 
ization. The  men  themselves  can  work  out  problems  of  efficient, 
courteous  service:  establish  standards  as  a  basis  for  time  and 
money  economies;  iron  out  difficulties  resulting  from  employee  dis- 
aatiafartlon :  offer  valuable  suggestions  for  increasing  the  earn- 
ings of  the  enterprise,  et  cetera.  The  success  of  the  late  William 
Stephens,  pioneer  restauranteur,  may  be  attributed  in  large  mea- 
sure to  the  coopcratio'n  and  confidence  he  received  frim  his  em- 
ployees,   whose    organization   he    personally   supervised. 

Finally,  organization  of  culinary,  domestic,  and  restaurant  work- 
ers on  a  large  scale  is  a  long-needed  step  in  the  struggle  of  Bay 
City  Aframericans  for  an  economic  foothold.  The  jim-crow  policy 
of  unions  in  this  vicinity  has  forced  the  majority  of  wage-earners 
into  this  type  of  work.  The  same  policy  is  now  directed  toward 
their  displacement  from  even  these  jobs.  Employers,  always  quick 
to  seize  any  advantage  offered  by  competition  in  the  labor  market, 
have  profited  by  the  unions'  policy  to  the  injury  of  lx)th  the  un- 
ions and  the  Negro  unorganized  workers.  Black  workers  are  used 
as  scabs  to  force  union  labor  to  terms,  then  discharged  until  they 
are  needed  again.  Self-organization  is  the  first  step  toward  the 
unity  of  black  and  white  workers,  toward  a  joint  struggle  against 
the  wage-cutting,   hire-and-fire   policy  of  the  employers. 

l«t  the  LaFerne  employees  organise!  Let  them  build  a 
strong,  purposed  "esprit  de  corps",  directed  toward  three 
aims:  (1)  Increasing  their  value  to  the  LaFerne  enterprises 
thru  more  efficient,  conscientious  ser\'ice;  (2)  protecting 
themselves  asainst  that  day  when  LaFerne  will  have  made 
his  "pile";  and  (S)  lajing  the  foundation  for  a  participation 
wUh  white  union  labor  in  the  common  struggle  for  labor's 
righta.

MR.  BARRY  ATTENDS  THE  CX>SMOS 

-  WELL-INTENTIONED,  LIBERAL,  NEWS-COLUMNIST  JOHN 
D.  BARRY  last  week  commented  at  length  on  his  impressions  of 
the  Cosmos  Club  reception   and  musical.  Mr.   Barry  was  favorably 

'  impressed  by  the  impeccable  tail-coats  and  suavity  of  the  men, 
by  the   light   complexions  and   charming   manners  of   the   women. 

Vye  wish  there  were  more   columnists  like  Mr.   Barry.   But   since 
there  are  not,   we  wish   Mr.   Barry  had  seen   more   clearly,  told   his 
readers  of  a  deeper  significance  of  the  affair. 

Beneath  those  tall-coats  and  manners  lie  prodigious  energies, 
enfeebled  and  paralyzed  by  the  lack  of  incentive.  Among  those 
charming  women,  of  whatever  complexion,  might  have  been  a 
Margaret  Sanger,  an  Alice  Longworth,  a  Frances  Perkins.  The 
■uave  gentlemen  might  have  been  super-industrialists,  cabinet 
members,  builders  of  Bay  bridges.  But  early  in  life.  Before  they 
had   thought    much   about    tall-coata    and   good    manners,    came   to 

•each      an      awful      revelation:      FOR    THE    NEGRO    AMERICAN 

-EVERY  CHANNEL  OF  CREATTVE  AND  CONSTRUCTIVE  Eyi- 
PRESSION  LS  DAMMED. 

Tills  demoralizing  discovery,  Mr.  Barry,  gives  a  reason  for  the 
good  social  usage  you  saw  at  the  reception.  It  explains,  too,  the 
Afrunericao's  preoccupation  with  entertainment  Go  to  any  social 
affair  and  observe  the  abandon  with  which  these  people  strive  tr 
utiliu  their  enormous  energies.  You  will  see  that  as  all  incentive 
and  channel  of  expression,  they  have  substituted  social  pleasare 
mad  success   for   more  substantial,  yet   impossible,   achievements. 

Than  ask  yourself.  Mr  Barry,  what  is  to  be  done  with  a  social 
order  which  dams  at  birth  the  world-moving  energies  of  fifteen 
million  people 


THE  SPOKESMAN  TRIES  AGAIN 

TRIAL  AND  ERROR  must  for  a  long  time  yet,  necessarily  be  an 
Important  method  in   the  conduct   of  any  enterprise  serving  Afra- 
mericans   The    absence    of    standards    and    guiding    precedents    has 
~  cauaad  The  Spokesman  to  adopt  this  method,  with  resulting  costly 
biundcrs. 

Despite  our  errors,  however,  most  of  our  readers  have  remained 
loj-al,  patient.  We  appreciate  this,  and  with  this  Issue  (See  an-

a  nawspaper  meeting  every  test  of  a  good  weekly  journal.  Among 
the  new  plans  are:

All  of  the  sections  of  the  bill 
Jealing  with  questions  of  inter-

for  220  yards,  100  and  300

calf's  track  career  has  been  daz- 
zling. He  tuui  run  and  won  great 
races  ugaiust  the  best  competition 
in  the  world;  he  bos  carried  his 
challenge  to  the  enemy  by  going 
abroad  and  defeating  the  best 
Burop?un    truck    stars. 

A  good  student,  a  fine  fellow, 
this  180-pound  human  rocket  has 
carved  bis  name  forever  in  the 
sports-world  hall  of  fame.  He  will 
graduate  from  Marquett  next 
June,  but  before  he  leaves  his 
lOma  mater  for  bis  home-town  on 
Lalce  Michigan,  the  world's  "num- 
ber one  runner"  has  more  than  a 
fair  chance  to  lower  the  time  for 
100    a«d    300    meters. 

Eddie  Tolan  and  Ralph  Metcalf 
are  by  no  means,  however,  the 
only  great  Negroes  of  the  Amer- 
ican track  which  luis  had  a  gal- 
axy of  dusky  stars.  Howard  P. 
Drew  of  Hartford,  Connecticut, 
was  the  first  known  human  to  run 
100  yards  in  9.C  seconds.  He  did 
it  a  generation  ago. 
Huhbard  of  Michigan 

One  of  the  must  celebrated  ifuur- 
ter-railers,  Binga  Dismond,  Chi- 
cago .star,  defeated  the  immortal 
Ted  Meredith  and  was  joint 
world-title  holder  with  Meredith 
for  the  440,  botb  of  them  having 
run  this  distance  in  47.4  seconds. 

Ned  Gourdin  of  Harvard  was 
the  first  human  to  jump  twenty- 
five  feet  or  more.  He  performed 
this  marvelous  feat  In  a  perfect 
dpaawttc  setting  in  the  Oxford- 
Cambridge,  Harvard-Yale  inter- 
national mc;t  at  Cambridge  (U.S.) 
In   July,    1»21. 

DeHart  Hubbard  of  Michigan  is 
by  all  odds  the  greatest  all-raund 
trac-k  athlete  tt>«  Negro  raoc  has 
produced,  he  ran  100  yards  in  9.6 
seconds;  bopped,  skipped  and 
Jumped  48  feet,  lO'i;  Inches  and 
held  the  world's  record  for  the 
broad-jump  in  192&,  doing  25  feet, 
l(t%  inohe.s.  As  a  member  of  the 
Olympic  learn  In  1924  Habbard 
W(m  the  broad-]ump  with  a  leap 
of  21  feet,  S'Vj  inches.  At  Chicago 
la  1«8,  he  jumped  26  feet,  2  in- 
ches, but  the  record  was  disal- 
lowed because  the  level  o{  the 
take-off  was  one  inch  higher  than 
the  surface   ef   the    landing-pit. 

Among  other  great  Negro  track 
stars  .should  be  mentioned  Frit2 
Pollard,  of  Brown,  whose  exploits 
00  the  gridiron  have  obliterated 
his  renown  as  a  hurdler.  Ted  Ca- 
ble and  Al  Jackson  complete  the 
trio  of  Negroes  who  have  won  the 
•ovetcd  varsity  H  in  track  at 
Harvard. 

Sol  Butler  of  Dubuque  waa  one 
of  the  few  men  to  jump  2S  feet, 
and  be  was  a  member  of  the  Ol- 
ympic   team   in    1930 

Phil  Edwarda,  New  York  Uni- 
versity's most  famed  track  star, 
ran  the  Oao  in  1:52.2  which  was 
the  Intercollegiate  all-time  record 
until    1932. 

Jesse  Owens  of  Ohio  State,  and

youth  who  ran  riot  against  North-

players  This  arose  following  the 
8ug:^esijnn  of  the  pre.sidenl  to 
have  a  mixed  Je^ue.  AH  hut  a 
few  present,  believed  the  idea  a 
very  good  one  and  like  the  prexy, 
believe  the  injection  of  one  or  two 
white  teams  of  the  same  class, 
will  arouse  more  enthusiasm, 
make  competition  keener  and  last 
but/  most  importaint  the  greatest 
step  forward  to  lower  the  bar 
that  keeps  colored  (fiamond  stars 
from    organised    baseball 

The  plan,  which  will  be  voted 
on  at  a  meeting  this  week,  when 
officers  will  also  be  elected,  c^ls 
for  white  as  well  as  colored  um- 
pires. The  success  of  the  circuit 
this  season,  will  depend  more 
than  ever  on  the  finanaial  assist- 
ance of  the  fans.  Tentative  date 
for   the   opening   is   April   14th.

a  sprinter,  and  Simmons  is  almost 
certain    to   be   in   the   vanguard   of 
the    Big    Ten    track    warriors,    be- 
fore  he  leaves  Iowa. 
The  Ornat  Bebeson 

The  Number  One  athlete  of  the 
Negro  race  and  one  of  the  great- 
est in  history  is  the  Inimitable 
Paul  Robeson  of  Rutgers.  The 
man's  prowess  in  all  branches  of 
sports  was  nothing  short  of 
amazing:  h«  won  twelve  varsity 
letters  In  four  different  sports: 
track,  football,  baseball  and  bas- 
ketball. He  threw  the  javelin  on 
the  track  offgregation,  played  end 
on  the  eleven,  center  on  the  bius- 
i  ketball  teatn  and  caught  on  the 
baseball  nine.  He  was  rated  as 
one  of  the  all-time  ends  in  foot- 
ball by  Waiter  Camp;  he  was  in 
the  exclusive  class  with  Hinkey  of 
Yale    and    Hardwick    of    Harvard. 

Willis  Ward.  Michigan  s  current 
football  and  track  star,  has  helped 
to  keep  on  a  high  level  the  re- 
nown of  Negro  athletes.  In  the 
EHg  Ten  track  meet  in  1933,  the 
dusky  Wolverine  star  scored  18 
points  for  his  team  more  than  all 
Other  members  ou  his  or  any  oth- 
er team  combined  -to  win  for 
Michigan. 

With  the  possible  exception  of 
boxing,  there  is  no  other  branch 
of  sports  In  which  the  American 
Negro  has  proved  his  ability  as 
he  has  in  track .  athletics.  In  proc- 
tioally  every  distance  from  100 
yards  or  leas  to  ten  miles,  a  Met- 
calfe or  a  Tolan  has  been  on  top 
or  near  the  top  of  the  track-heap.

The  efficacy  of  the  new 
magnetic  discovery  was 
demonstrated       la.st       fall 


By  Karl  CraiLMliaiv 

Joe  Louis,  young  heavyweight 
sensation  lived  up  to  the  advance 
notices  by  stopping  "Red"  Barry. 
tough  Washington  Irishman,  in  2 
unil  1-3  rounds  at  Drcanilunil  Aud- 
itorium, la.st  Friday  iii(;ht.  I.,oui8's 
victory  was  couvincinK  and  sub- 
pcrb  as  he  bent  down  Barry  with 
a  blazing  two-fisted  attack.  Wise 
heads  nodded  approvingly  and  sta- 
ted, "He'll  do".  Louia  didn't  seem 
to  extend  himself  in  the  least 
and  was  master  of  the  situation 
from  the  start.  To  the  acclaim  of 
the  capacity  crowd  that  jammed 
Dreamland  Arena.  Louis  entered 
the  ring  first.  He  was  wearing  ii' 
beautiful  blue  robe  with  red  and 
white  trimming?,  emblematic  of 
his  Golden  Glove  Championship. 
Barry  entered  seconds  later  in  a 
non-descript  affair,  but  neverthe- 
less looking  serious  and  formadible 
After  the  necessary  introductions, 
ceremonies,  etc.,  the  fighters  came 
together    immediately 

ROUND   ONE 

They  met,  in  the  center  of  the 
ring,  fiddled  around  a  bit,  Barry 
shot  a  left  but  Louis  pulled  uwuy. 
Louis  feinted  and  clinched.  Barry 
tried  two  lefty  to  the  face  and 
danced  away.  Louis  crossed  a 
short  right  to  the  jaw  and  Barry 
was  In  trouble.  Loui.s  was  working 
smooth  and  cool  as  he  rolled  and 
slipped.  Barry  swings,  Louis  con- 
nected with  a  right  uppercut  that 
put  Barry  in  trouble  again.  Louis 
missed  ticverul  rightg  and  lefts 
to  the  head.  Louis  came  in  with 
a  left  to  tho  body  and  brought 
It  up  sharply  to  the  head.  Barry 
countered  with  a  right  to  the  jaw 
that  swung  Louis  around  against 
the  ropes.  This  was  Barry's  Inst 
and  practically  only  effective 
punch  during  the  fight  Louis 
measured  Barry  and  shot  a  right 
uppercut,  .shifted  and  shot  a  left 
uppercut,  but  both  missed.  Barry 
was  backing  away  at  the  bell - 
Louis's   round. 

KOITND   TWO 

They  feinted  each  other  into  a 
clinch,  lA>\i\a  shot  a  right  cross, 
Barry  jabbed  to  the  face,  in  the 
infighting  Louis  bobbed  Barry's 
head  back  with  short  uppercuts, 
Barry  was  strictly  on  th6  defen- 
sive here,  pawing  weakly.  Louis 
dropped  Barry  with  a  right  to 
the  jaw.  After  a  9  count,  Barry 
arose  to  run  into  a  barrage  of 
jolting  punches  that  hung  him  on 
the  rope  where  seemingly  be 
couldn't  fall.  Louis  eased  up  mo- 
mentarily, Barry  was  practically 
defenseless.  I..0UI8  stepped  in  again 
with  a  left  and  right  and  Mr.  Bar- 
ry hit  the  floor  again.  He  arose 
after  a  9  count  and  swinging  wild- 
ly, Louis  sensed  the  kill,  but  evi- 
dently Trainer  Blackburn  was 
holding  him  in  check.  They  were 
sparing  at  the  bell.  Louis's  round. 
ROUND   THREE 

Ixtuls  met  Barry  in  the  center 
of  the  ring  with  a  left  hook  to 
the  chin.  Barry  sagged  and  waa 
on  the  defcn.sive  again.  Louis  toyed 
with  Barry,  then  put  him  down 
again  with  a  hard  right  to  the 
head  Barry  was  up  at  8  only  to 
run  intn  those  blazing  fista  again. 
When  he  went  down  this  time. 
Referee  Toby  Irwin  stopped  the 
fight  to  save  further  punishment 
and  Louis  won  by  a  technical 
K.  O. 

In  the  supporting  bouts  Frank 
ConoUy,  Oakland  heavyweight. 
K-O'ed  Jack  Petrle,  San  Jose,  In 
the   second   round. 

Eddie  Houghton  took  a  6  round 
decision  from  Bob  Frazier,  local 
colored  boy.  in  the  special.  They 
are    light    heavies. 

The  second  preliminary  resulted 
In  a  technical  KO.  for  Nash  over 
Al  Marino,  after  Marino  had  suf- 
fered a  severe  cut  over  the  right 
eye  In  the  third  round.  This  was 
a  hammer  and  tongs  affair  that 
had  the  crowd  on  their  feet 
screaming 

In  the  first  preliminary,  Al  No- 
vay  and  cniff  Dalen  drew  after 
Dalrn  had  NOvay  down  twice  In 
the   opening   round.

ers    were    unarmed     and    opposed   Vernon   Thornton    of   Oakland    are 


to  any  violence  has  been  proven 
more  than  a  score  of  times.  That 
the  growers  resorted  to  ruthless 
violence  and  murder  in  their  ef- 
forts to  break  the  strike  and  force 
wages  down,  is  common  knowledge 
to  everyone  in  the  locality  and 
has  even  been  proven  in  the  courts 
at  a  previous  trial. 

The  prosecution  in  the  present 
trial  baa  sought  to  contend  that 
the  strike  was  not  a  struggle  for 
better  conditions  but  an  act  of 
violence  instigated  by  so-called 
"agitators".  They  also  tried  to 
place  the  blame  for  the  killing  of 
the  two  pickers  on  the  shoulders 
of  the  strikers  themselves. 

Those  vicious  slanders  have 
been  answered  by  more  than  a 
score  of  valley  witnesses.  The  tes- 
limony  of  Al  Smith  and  Willie 
Crawford,  the  two  Negro  workers, 
revealed  the  true  conditions  be- 
fore and  during  the  strike  and 
gave  eye  witness  accounts  of  the 
actual  killing. 

The  moat  important  significance 
of  this  testimony  is  its  revelation 
of  the  growing  bond  of  real  unity 
and  fellowship  among  Negro  and 
white  workers.  Not  only  did  they 
■tsind  together  in  firm  conrad- 
ship  during  the  strike  but  have 
carried  this  unity  into  the  courts 
to  defend  their  fellow   workers.

At  the  last  writing  I  told  you 
that  the  District  Commander  had 
organised  two  base  ball  leagues, 
and  that  Wall  Post  was  a  mem- 
ber of  one  of  the  leagues.  At  our 
last  meeting  Wall  Post  had  scored 
two    runs    on    two    hits.

The  fir.1t  meeting  in  each  month

Sister  Bresse  Williams  and  the 
social  committee  are  planning

A    UREAT    FINISHER  { 

Louis    is    a    great    finisher,    one 
of  the   best  in   the  game,  when  he 
tags    an     opponent,     its     "too     bad 
Jim".    He    goes    about    the    "kill"  | 
like  a  veteran,  with  a  way  ail  his 
own,   but,   according  to   Blackburn. 
the    best    he's   ever    se#i.    "He's    a 
Hon    and    a   lamb,"    says    Jack.    A  J 
lion   in  the   ring  and   a  lamb   out- 
side.    We     could     readily     sec     the  ! 
latter,    as    Louis,    lounging    in    his  [ 
snug   quarters,   put    in    a   soft   spo- 
ken word  now  and  then.  We  ask- 
ed  what   was   Louis's    best    punch, 
and    Blackbiirn    promptly    told    us, 
there     wasn't    any    "best    punch", 
they  were  all  the  .lame,  Louis  be- 
ing   a    two    fisted    fighter,    throw- 
ing   them    from    either    side    and 
'Ikely   tn   turn    the   house   over   on 

ou    from    any   angle. 

PEURONM  ToraincsT 

To  the  question  of  his  toughest 
.'Ight,  Louis  answered  Patsy  Per- 
onnl.  He  had  Patsy  down  three 
imes  during  this  fight  but  just 
wouldn't  put  him  away.  He  won 
he  decision  after  ten  rounds  of 
oug^h  milling.  Perronql  had  won 
18  straight  fights  until  he  ran 
into  Louis.

MOseooe  woke  him  up. 

Claude  L«dford,  while  he  did 
not  aee  the  fight,  caught  the  fe- 
V«r.  He  left  the  old  bus  at  South 
•Brkeley,  as  he  came  to  work 
for  only  a  few  hours.  On  leaving 
the  pier  he  failed  to  see  his  car 
where  he  thought  he  lefi  it.  Some 
maan  man  had  stolen  it,  was

-EDITORIAI^ 


The 


■^"^5^ 
^P^ 


DUUINC;  THK  THREE  YEARS  of  its  exisU-mc 
this  newspaper  hua  evoked  a  great  deal  of  crititlBm. 
There  are  those  who  approve  and  those  who  don't. 
There  always  will  be  both.  We  expect  this— rather  wel- 
come it;  for  friticiam  of  a  newspaper's  politics  is  gen- 
erally an  indication  of  its  influence,  to  be-  preferred 
much  more  than  public  indifference. 

Lately  however,  The  Spokesman  has  been  accused 
of  Communist  leanings.  Many  ixK)ple,  careless  of  defini- 
tion, declare  openly  that  this  newspaper  is  a  "Red  " 
jouriiiil.  And  th(;  rumor  has  reached  our  ears  that  wt- 
an-  »ub«idi/id  by  J(x>  .Stalin.  (Would  to  Clod  we  were 
subsidi:'.*^!  by  somcbo<iyl) 

Our  readers  should  really  ask  the  Communi.st«  what 
they  think  of  ua.  After  they  had  called  us  everything 
from  ii  "|Ktly  Ijourgoois  opi)ortuni8t'*  to  a  "child  of 
God"  wo  might  get  enough  sympathy  to  start  a  cir. 
culation  campaign.  But  because  we  are  prepand  to  of- 
fer explanations  of  our  policy  at  any  time  and  to  any- 
body, wo  welcome  receipt  this  week  cf  a  letter  from 
E^qiiity  Advance  Post,  No.  2887,  V.  F.  W.,  stating  this 
rumor  plainly  and  honestly.  We  appreciate  the  candor 
of  this  letter,  and  are  glad  to  have  the  opportunity  of 
answering  it  publicly,  since  our  answer  may  be  taken 
as  final  testimony  on  the  question  whether  or  not  The 
.S{)cke8man  is  "Red".  The  S[)oke8man'8  answer  follows 
eaeh  question  in  large  tyi»e. 

The   I'lihliohrro 

H.  K.  S|K>kr«nmn  -   lUty 

iirnllniirii  ^ 

VVr  hiive  litutrd  the  allegation  made  thst  your  publiration  has 
a  lenning  tuwarU-s.  U  in  vympthy  with  and  advooitrn  Communiam 
in  these  United  Sliitrs.  Some  ol  tbeae  rhargen  have  been  made 
by  prrsonH  u  hoiu  we  cannot  justly  ignore  In  fnct  it  bai  been 
chargcl  Mcrri'lly  and  openly  that  the  Spokesman  a<'tu»lly  advcKUtrH 
subvcmivr  pru|inganda  in  connection  with  our  Coniililution  and 
Government. 

We  prefer  to  believe  that  all  these  charges  and  rumors  are 
erronenu.t  and  fnlse  We  like  to  believe  that  your  newnpapcr  is 
thoroughly  American  and  that  it  txlieves  in  Americim  institutions 
and  ideals  In  ordir  to  give  this  Committee  some  concrete  asiiur- 
ancc  und  intintion,  which  we  desire  to  report  to  our  organizstion, 
will  you  pit  i.if  Hnxwer  these  questions  in  writing  or  have  a  rep- 
resentntivr  ut  your  paper  appear  before  our  Post  snd  outline  your 
policy  and   declaration   of   principles? 

1.  Do  you   believe   In  the   orderly   process  of   government   an   it 
'  now  1-xij.t.s  ill  ItiL-  United  States  of  North  America? 

ANSWER:  No!  The  process  of  government  as  it 
now  exists  in  this  country  is  incompetent,  undemtxra- 
lic.  and  chaotic. 

The  abuses  of  Huey  Ixjng  in  l>ouiBiana,  of  Talmadge 
in  Georgia,  of  Merriam  in  California,  of  stupid  and  dem- 
ogogic  public  t)fficials  in  every  branch  of  the  local, 
state  and  Kixleral  government  are  an  indication  of  the 
incomfjctency  of  the  present  system,  under  which  an 
alert,  intelligent,  and  progressive  electorate  NE\'ER 
elects  a  public  official:  it  is  alwa>'s  a  confused,  impas- 
sioned, propagandized  mass  of  voters  whose  attention 
has  been  caught  by  the  horse-play  and  demagoguery 
of  politicians.  Honest,  progressive  men  don't  win  Amer- 
ican elections. 

Any  one  who  questions  whether  the  present  lortv 
of  povemnu-nt  is  democratic  n«*ed  only  ask  an  obaer\'ant 
Negro  American,  cr  an  Indian,  or  an  American-tknn 
Chinese  or  Japanese,  or  a  Jew,  or  a  picket  in  any  strug- 
gle Ixtwcin  workers  and  employers.  Democracy  is  the 
mask  behind  which  lurks  as  tyrannical  and  ruthlt-ss 
an  oligarch  as  ever  made  profits  from  war  or  sold  men 
into  slavery.  There  are  some  who  cannot  see  beneath 
this  mask:  they  are  blind.  There  are  some  who  8«^e 
what  is  not  there:  they  are  short-sighted.  There  are 
some  who  refuse  to  believe  what  they  see:  they  are 
timid.  Finally,  there  are  some  who  refuse  to  look,  pre- 
ferring to  accept  the  mask  at  its  face  value:  you  know- 
damn  well  what  they  arc! 

As  a  matter  of  fact,  the  Veteran's  question  was 
improperly  stated.  The  adjective  "orderly"  has  no  busi- 
ness in  it.  There  are  few  perioda  since  1776  when  the 
government  of  the  American  people  has  been  orderly, 
unless  we  understand  "orderly"  as  "being  ordered  by 
financiers  and  industrialista".  Not  even  the  law.  most 
stable  of  social  institutions,  represents  an  orderly  cor- 
[)us  juris — especially  when  such  a  case  of  |>ali>able  in- 
justice as  the  Scottsboro  caae  has  to  be  taken  twice  to 
the  Supreme  Court  to  get  nine  citizens  a  fair  trial;  or 
when  this  highest  authority  in  the  land  three  times  de- 
cides that  Negro  Americans  in  Texas  have  the  right 
to  vote,  and  three  times  is  flagrantly  defied  by  state 
legislatures  and  (utrties.  Moreover,  the  government  of 
this  nation  has  yet  to  bring  order  to  a  type  of  justice 
administered  in  the  South,  where  the  "orderly  process  ' 

i.s  to  take  the  "Goddam  N r"  and  unfuri  him  from 

the  nearest  tree! 

No.  dear  readers,  The  Spokesman  certainly  does 
NOT  believe  in  the  orderly  process  of  government,  AS 
IT  NOW  EXISTS  in  the  United  SUtes  of  North  Amer- 
ica! 

2  Have  you  or  do  you   Intend   to  resort  to  subversive   methods 
or  propaganda  in  proposing  a  change  of  our  form  of  government? 

ANSWER:     Before    answering,    definitioh   of   the 
word    "subversive"    is    necessary:    The   word    has   two 
meanings:    (1)    to  change;    (2)    to   ruin.   In  the  latter

RALEIGH,  NC  Three  white 
state  prison  camp  guards,  suspen- 
ded during  Investigation  of  alleg- 
ed brutalities,  admitted  Wednes- 
day that  tl^y  had  taken  part  in 
secret  midnight  beatings  of  coa- 
victa,  in  dir«ct  disregard  of  the 
regulations  under  which  they  were 
supposed   to  work. 

Out  of  the  unspeaklble  torture 
suffered  by  two  convicts  wboae 
gangrenous  feet  were  amputated 
after  they  disobeyed  J35-a-month 
brutal,  ignorant  white  guards, 
armed  with  pistols  and  authority, 
has  resulted  an  authorisaUan  of 
four  investigations  into  sordid  stor- 
ies of  inhuman  treatment  in  the 
state  prison  camps. 

The  state's  investigating  ma- 
chinery was  placed  in  action  wheh 
it  became  known  that  Woodrow 
Wilson  Shropshire  and  Robert 
Barnes  had  had  their  feet  cut  off 
at  the  State  Prison  Hospital,  last 
week,  after  they  had  suffered  ex- 
crutiating  pain  while  handcuffed 
to  the  door  of  a  small,  dork,  and 
foul  ceil  In  a  prison  "camp  under 
circumstances  too  revolting  to  be 
more    than    intimated. 

The  investigators  have  before 
them  evidence  from  various  sour- 
ces indicating  that  the  torture  of 
these  men  and  of  others  grew  out 
of   the   brutal.   If   not    sadistic,    ad 


last  fall  disclosed  some  of  them 
with  families  were  receiving  as 
little  as   $7   a   month   In   relief.

That  convicts  have  been  tortur-

LIndsey  Woody,  white,  formrr 
guard,  told  the  legislative  prober-> 
that  "conditions  had  been  bad"  at 
the  camp.  He  stated  that  prison- 
ers had  been  handcuffed  with  arran 
stretched  above  their  beads  and 
that  he  had  heard  of  one  man  be- 
ing beaten   to  death. 

Much  evidence  that  priaonrrs 
frequently  have  died  from  thr 
solitary  confinement  punishment 
in  cold,  damp  cells  in  the  high- 
way prison  camps  baa  reached 
the  ears  of  the  probars,  it  is 
said. 

It  also  has  been  alleged  that 
guards  have  unmercifully  beaten 
priaonera  with  their  flats,  walking 
sticks,  clubs,  and  even  pieces  of 
iron  pipe,  although  corporal  pun- 
ishment is  forbidden  by  prison 
regulations. 

lamalea  Afraid  »•  Talk 

Much  of  the  testimony  must 
come  from  men  bow  in  prison 
camps  or  former  inmates,  and  it 
is  reputed  that  fear  of  reprisal 
have  made  many  hesitant  to  give 
their  story.  However,  the  investi- 
gators are  promising  them  all 
protection  and  a  search  into  their 
stories. 

W^at  is' believed  to  \»  (lie  prl'n- 
cipal  respoosibliity  for  the  abuses 
revealed  is  that  portion  of  a  sys- 
tem which  permits  t33.00-a-monlh

ers Into  dingy  cella  and  keep  them 
chained  to  cell  doors  eight  or  ten 
hours  a  day  for  a  week  or  month.

THE  SPOKESMAN 


WEEK  OF  MARCH  29,  1935 


IS  HE  SPOKEN  RED? 

Oantinued  from  page  1 
emphatically  NO.   In  the  former,   emttliatically 
YBS. 

The  Spokesman  masthead  reads:  "Independently 
putaUahed  every  week  in  the  year  to  set  forth  ideas  and 
IRtmiote  programs  for  social  reconstruction,  in  the  in- 
tmst  especially  of  Aframericans  and  other  under-pri- 
vfleged  groups."  • 

With  this  end  in  view,  most  of  the  previous  edi- 
*«rials  of  this  newspaper  have  been  written.  With  the 
ttaoe  end  in  view,  most  of  those  to  appear  later  will  be 
written. 

"Hie  Spokesman  believes  that  a  social  system  in 
\irfaich  millions  of  people  are  condemned  to  lifelong  mis- 
ery ought  to  be  coi:rected.  We  believe  it  can  be  correct- 
ed. We  intend  to  do  all  we  can  to  correct  it. 

t   What    ia   your    policy    in    coanection    with    Conununism    in 
United  States? 


ANSWER:    The   Spokesman    regards   Communism 
in  the  United  States  as  a  healthy  symptom  of  the  peo- 
ples awakening.  Social  change  usually  requires  extreme 
measures.  There  is  much  exaggeration  in  Communist 
propaganda;  but  exaggeration  is  necessary  to  win  at- 
tantion  for  doctrines  little  known,  generally  unpopular, 
^d  dmounced  by  the  nation's  rulers.  Because  of  this 
lieed  for  over-statement  of  an   unpopular  idea,  exag- 
l^tntion  lies  in  the  doctrines  of  Confucius,  Socrates, 
f%.tia,   Aristotle,    Christ,    Locke,    Tom    Paine,    Thomas 
'Jefferson,  Abraham  Lincoln,  and  Franklin  D.  Roosevelt. 
_     ;  The  American  people  need  a  pohtical  party  to  re- 
present  the  interests  of  the  conunon   people,   of   the 
,1fQa>ker8  and  the  under-privileged.  Everyone  with  even 
iaB»  eye  open  knows  that  neither  the  Democratic  nor 
•H^jB  RepubUcan  party  does  this.  A  strong  third  party 
^  labor  party — is  immediately  necessary.  The  American 
4Meration  of  Labor  is  too  weak-kneed  to  propose  this 
^Heasure  and  carry  it  through.  It  must  be  done  by  the 
^ffOfle,  the  awakened  electorate  of  this  country,  who 
^ipc^ -longer  can  be  hypnotized  by  circus  antics  or  high 
^rwsure  political  salesmanship,  who  know  a  Huey  Long 
^r  what  he  is  instead  of  what  he  says  he  is.  Commu- 
nist criticism  and  agitation  is  a  constructive  social  force 
pointxBg  to  this  end. 

The  Spokesman  sees  the  real  danger  to  American 
principles  and  ideals  of  political  democracy  in  stifling 
juid   crushing    Communist   propaganda   and    agitation. 
^  a  matter  of  fact,  Mr.  Roosevelt  would  be  the  first 
to  admit  that  change  in  the  present  set-up  is  indispen- 
sable to  the  preservation  of  individual  liberty  in  this 
eountry.  The  only  difference  between  Mr.  Roosevelt  and 
Ihe  reddest  "Red"  is  their  opinions  concerning  the  ex- 
paolt  of  this  change.  We  dare  say  that  if  the  "Red"  did- 
f  at  point  out  how   far   a   change   might   extend,    the 
fhattga  advocated  by  Mr.  Roosevelt  would  not  lean  as 
i^kftward  as  it  does.  In  plain  words.  Communism  in 
^^uaerica  at  this  particular  historical  moment  is  nec- 
eswry  to  preserve  the  democratic  ideal. 

4  I*  yoa  beliwe  in  retorting  to  force  in  order  to  bring  about 
a  chaiic*  in  our  (ovamment  as  now  constituted? 

V ANSWER:  Only  when  tyrants,  having  seized  the 
rdns  of  government,  use  force  in  order  to  exploit  and 
crush  the  American  people,  does  The  Spokesman  be- 
lieve the  people  are  justified  in  using  force  to  restore 
^  their  rights.  This  question  is  stupid  wheh  addressed  to 
the  comm(»i  people,  since  the  immediate  internal  dan- 
^ger  to  the  government  and  institutions  of  this  country 
is  not  from  Its  people,  but  from  scheming,  power-intoxi- 
csted,  balf-hsked  Napoleons.  Let  the  Veterans  address 
tIMB  qxwstion  to  Messers.  Mellon,  Morgan,  Long,  Du- 
pQoi,  and  Hssrst!

IIW'wufM   or   paraoB   connected   with    the    Soviet   Government   of 


J.  ANSWER:  Positively.  NO!  As  a  matter  of  fact, 
Mr  paper  and  everyone  connected  with  it  is  having  a 
Ipilie  of  a  time  to  employ  themselves,  or  receive  re- 
JlWis,  monetary  or  othenrise,  from  any  source  con- 
Wtl^fA  with  Aframerica.  For  three  years  we've  tried 
tiiilekBtMHiy  to  give  the  people  of  the  Bay  ciUes  a 
fWjpP  locsl  weekly  newspaper.  We've  done  that  to  the 
■Wtfattion  of  our  consciences,  but  over  and  against 
tt^ 'dejections  of  our  empty  pockets  and  stomachs. 
Jllr  oar  reward,  we've  received  a  kick  in  the  teeth  from 
4|f  smug,  re«pwtable  dtixens  who  grin  in  our  faces, 
^ittA  c«r  paper,  conveniently  leave  town  when  we  need

we  mean  it  is  in  a  position  to  tell  either  Mr.

SACRAMENTO,  Mar  25— Juve- 
nile delinquency  will  be  on  the 
wane  if  provisions  of  Assembly- 
man Hawlcin's  bill  creating  "co- 
ordtnatlng  councils"  is  carried  out. 
It  provides  for  the  segregation  of 
coung  people  convicted  of  break- 
ing the  law  by  sendlitg  them  to 
forest  camps  and  keeping  them 
away  from  the  hardened  criminal. 
The  councils  will  consider  the  In- 
dividual problems  of  the  child, 
study  his  background  and  attempt 
to  regulate  his  future,  so  that  his 
criminal  tendencies  will  be  dest- 
royed. 


California's  Crime  Conference 
was  buried  under  the  news — but 
for  the  first  time  in  the  history 
of  the  West  every  peace  officer 
and  executive  authority  of  the 
eleven  westrn  states  gathered  to- 
gether and  attempted  to  solve 
their  mutual  problem— the  ex- 
tinction of  crime  and  the  rapid 
apprehension  of  criminals.  'Dele- 
gates were  treated  with  an  ^  in- 
spection of  "California's  finest" 
when  they  reviewed  the  training 
school  of  the  State  Highway  Pa- 
trol. 


Young  Republicans  almost  fell 
for  a  plan  to  build  up  enthusiastic 
support  for  a  "HIi-am  Johnson  for 
President"  boom.  The  convention 
was  the  opening  gun  of  the  G.O, 
P.  National  Campaign,  led  off  by 
Col.  'Teddy"  Roosevelt  the  As- 
sembly held  a  rousing  convention. 
Party  leaders  throughout  the  na- 
tion watched  the  activities  of  the 
young  men  with  great  interest. 
The  undercover  movement  for 
Johnson  provoked  great  surprise 
to  the  oldsters  who  had  thought 
that  Johnson  had*  forgotten  his 
presidential     ambitions. 

Friends  of  the  "old  man"  as 
Merriam  is  referred  to  in  the" 
Capitol,  pushed  the  thought  to  the 
delegates  that  Merriam  because  of 
hfs  nationwide  Townsend  support 
would  be  a  good  trading  nominee 
for  California  to  send  to  the  next 
Republican  national  convention- 
Young  Teddy  was  left  in  the  cold. 


OPERETTA  PLANNED 
FOR  ST.  AUGUSTINES 


DIVINE  WHITK  RKIIIT,  by  Tre- 
vor Bowrn.  Harpers  for  the  In- 
stitute of  SwiiU  and  KxJiKiom 
Reaearoh,  New  York.  307  pagea. 
Published  .on  behalf  of  the 
"Protestant  Christian  enterprise 
in  the  United  States,"  this  volume 
is  intended  for  the  millions  of 
professing  white  Christians  in 
this  country.  To  these  it  naay  t>e 
an  enlightening  book  reviewing, 
as  it  does,  the  history  of  race 
relations  in  this  country  and 
tracing  the  development  of  Insti- 
tutionalised prejudice.  To  some 
of  them  it  may  mean  even  mop. 
It  may  be  the  means  of  orienting 
their  uncertain  steps  along  the 
path  of  a  more  lityeral  attitude 
towards  the  Negro. 

But  beyond  this,  "Divine  White 
Right "  can  do  but  little.  It  ts  not 
enough,  in  this  day,  to  condemn 
discrimination,  segregation,  dis- 
franchisement and  lynching.  To 
point  to  the  hypocrisy  of  church 
and  state.  Nor  are  sincerity  and 
high  purpose  enough.  The  need  is 
for  a  program  to  meet  these 
evils.  This,  Mr.  Bowen  does  not 
offer. 

CHURCH    CAN    DO 
SOMETHING 

Instead  there  is  the  suggestion 
that  organized  Christianity  should 
and  can  do  something  towards 
changing  attitudes  and  rectifying 
the  Negro's  status  in  this  country. 
While  ethically  it  may  be  accepta- 
ble to  hold  that  the  church 
shoulc)  face  the  problem  of  race 
relations  in  jbh^  spirit  of  Jesus 
Christ,  it,  is— to  put  it  mildly- 
amazing  to  advance  ,  the  theory 
that  the  church  ran  do  something 
fundamental  in  bringing  about  a 
real  change  in  the  Negro's  po- 
sition  In   American    society. 

Such  a  view  totally  ignores, 
first,  the  economic  roots  of  race 
prejudice,  and  second,  the  historic 
alignment  of  organiztu  religion 
on  the  side  of  those  forces  which 
profit  by  the  existence  of  race 
prejudice.  One  might  as  well  look 
for  the  church  to  be  in  the  van- 
guard of  a  movement  to  secure 
for  workers  the  full  product  of 
their  labor  as  to  expect  that  in- 
stitution to  conduct  a  far-reaching 
sincere  and  sustained  effort  to 
eradicate  color  prejudice  in  Amer- 
ica. Only  the  most  naive  Christian 
looks  for  any  such  development 
in    his    church.    There    are,    to    be 


Popular  demand  is  bringing  an- 
other performance  of  that  beauti- 
ful operetta  "The  Belle  of  Barce- 
lona", a  musical  comedy  In  three 
acts   by  Charles  Ross   Chaney. 

Those  fortunate  enough  to  have 
attended  the  premier  production 
given  under  the  able  direction  of 
Miss  Ida  L,.  Jackson  at  the  Ber- 
keley High  School  Auditorium, 
nearly  two  years  ago  have  not 
forgotten  its  .  splendid  casting, 
beautiful  costuming  and  haunting 
melodies. 

Who  could  forget  Edna  Lancas- 
ter as  Marguerite,  the  accompli- 
shed daughter  of  Spain;  handsome 
Alden  McOelland  as  Hal,  the 
dashing  American  custoc  instec- 
tor;  popular  Walter  Loving,  Jr., 
as  Don  De  la  Vega,  whose  golden 
voice    lingers   with   yeu   (till. 

The  second  performance  which 
bids  fag-  to  surpass  the  first,  will 
be  given  sometime  in  May.  Many 
of  the  old  cast  are  taking  part, 
with  the  addition  of  so^e  exce^r 
lent   new  tallent. 

Miss  Ida  L.  Jackson,  lb  whom 
enough  credit  cannot  be  given 
for  the  artistry  of  the  first  pro- 
duction Is  directing  genius  of  the 
cast,  and  she  has  few  peers  in 
this   field.

CONTAINS  ESSAY/ 
HI     IKA    REID 

Thi'  latter  third  of  the  bonli 
con-isl.s  of  un  es.suy  by  Ira  DoA 
Rtid  on  "The  Church  and  Educa- 
tion for  Negrbcs."  After  u  brief 
hisluiical  survey  und  un  analysis 
of  the  structure  and  outlook  of 
the  Negro  college  and  the  furce.s 
whil  li  hove  molded  the^,  Mr. 
Reid  ventures  to  outline  sound 
objeitives  for  the  denominational 
and   private   college   for  Negroes. 

"Theirs  is  the  opportunity  to 
unfrock  the  sham  and  pretense  of 
formal  secondary  education,"  he 
asserts.  "Theirs  Is  the  role  of 
making  education  vital;  theirs  is 
the  responsibility  for  intellectual 
honesty  on  all  matters  including 
those  of  race;  theirs  is  the  task 
of  planning— without  which  there 
is  the  challenge  to  eliminate  the 
last  vestiges  of  hypocrisy,  from 
America's  first  and  foremost  In- 
terracial activity;  theirs  is  the 
project  of  making  a  church  school 
the  apotheosis  of  an  education 
that  unfalteringly  and  unequivo- 
cably  dedicates  itself  to  the  deJ 
velopmcnt  of  the  Negro's  full^t 
contribution."     . ' 

This  iirogram  leads  to  the  di- 
lemma which  Mr.  Rayd.  himself 
recognizes:  "Can  it  (the  college) 
sui-vive  if  it  adopts  this  point  of 
view:  and  should  it  survive  if  it 
does  not?"  He  answers  adequate- 
ly: "Only,  through  a  socialized  ob- 
jective can  these  programs  ever 
hope  to  be  other  than  sterile. "-

MOBILE.  Ala.,  Mar.  15— At  an 
open  forum  moss  meeting  con- 
ducted by  the  Mobile  branch  of  the 
N.A.A.C.P.  at  Metropolitan  A.  M. 
E.  Church  on  last  Sunday,  plans 
were  made  to  launch  a  vigorous 
mover-'nt  to  increase  the  number 
of  qualified  voters  in  Mobile 
county. 

~  Plans  are  now  being  carefully 
devised  to  "round  up"  the  exservice 
men,  who  by  virtue  of  service  in 
the  U.  S.  Army  or  Navy,  are  ex- 
empted from  payment  of  poll  tax: 
It  is  also  planned  to  interest  and 
educate  young  men  and  women 
reaching  maturity  as  to  the  re- 
sponsibility of  citizenship,  and 
encourage  them  to  register;  those 
who  are  above  twenty  one  and  not 
over,  thirty  years  of  age  will  be 
assisted  in  paying  back  poll  tax 
through  a  fuitd  which  it  ts  hoped 
n^ay ,  be  created  by  giving  a  series 
of    entertainments,        .

LFTT  N'O  .\H'.AMK1:P-.\N  F:.\II,T  bicau.s.-  the  Su- 
preme Court  again  .si  t  .iside  tin  (oruiction  of  the  S<-ottsl>iro 
boys.  It  is  Well  that  .\lah.ima  and  the  South  should  Ix'  re- 
buked. But  whin  the  iibuke  is  preced<-d  by  justification  of 
legal  iegerdeman,  its  eff.iii\in<  ss  is  destmyed. 

This  is  exaetl".  what  liapp<ned.  Nine  Men.  sobir  and 
wise,  one  day  deehne  illegal  a  device  by  which  justice  in 
the  South  IK  circuKuented,  the  day  b<'fore,  thi-  sa^me  .Nine 
Men  had  sanctlo:..  I  the  u.st'  of  a  similar  device  by  which 
<MM).Of)0  Texans  an-  r.  Mm  .1  of  their  right   to  vote 

In  other  wor.is,  it  is  ,ill  right  if  the  I>emo(  ratic  p.irty 
in  thi-  South  i-\aiiis  til.  s|i.nt  of  fh(  Fedcr-;il  Constitution 
by  calling  •its«-lf  .1  .In!/  11  'v  uluntars-  assoiiation"  and  re- 
fusing memUrship  I"  N'egi.i  Anierieans.  thereby  barring 
them  from  the  p<.lls  it  the  deinotratic  pnmanes  Thr  Nine 
Men  know  full  well  that  this  is  a  t  ru  k  rxpressly  designed 
to  vi(.late  the  spirit  ol  the  ( ■■institution  Rut  s<i  kmg  as  it 
e\-ndes  the  actual  li  tl.  i  of  the  law,  it  is  lawful  The  Nine 
Mens  task  is  to  judi;.-,  imt   to  ninake  or  enforce  the  law. 

The  trouble  with  the  Souths  jiirv  system  therefore 
if  we  are  to  follow  the  same  logic  is  not  that  it  is  wrong 
or  unjust,  but  th.it  it  is  merely  stupidly  admiiiisten-il  The 
trickery  is  tin.  iipparent  .Some  smart  demagogue  ne<'ds  to 
show  Southern  states  how  to  app<>ar  impartial  while  act- 
ually discriminating  in  the  selection  of  jurors' 

Plainly,  therefon',  that  Negro  Amenians  are  held 
unjustly  in  a  servile  status  is  not  the  concern  of  American 
Justice;    the    impntant    thing    is    that    they    ix-    oppressed 

"legally  ".

of  the  fact  that  Mr.  Kenneth  King, 
coach  of  the  state  team.  Mrs. 
Stephenson  of  the  physical  edu- 
cation department,  and  Mr.  How- 
ard himself,  had  given  permission. 

Inasmuch  as  the  debate  was  a 
college  activity,  as  the  offer  from 
Wiley  had  been  presented  to  the 
school  it-self,  Negro,  students,  as 
well  as  San  Francisco  tax  payers 
are  wondering  Just  what  Is  the 
Implication  in  the  refusal  of  a 
state  in!!tltution  to  accommodate 
the  students  and  their  guests  at 
the  school  gymnasium. 

No  reason  has*  been  vouchsafed 
by  the  school  authorities,  from 
Dr.  A.  Roberta,  president  of  the 
institution.  Denn  of  Women  *Mary 
Ward,  Kenneth  King,  coach  of 
Delta  Sigma,  Mrs.  Stephenson  nor 
Allen  Howard,  all  of  tli«  latter 
three  ha\-e  l>een  busily  passing  the 
buck  for  arranging  with  Mr.  John- 
son for  a  dance  In  the  first  place. 

Mr.  Howard,  who  was  elected 
to  rescind  his  permission  In  per- 
son,   admitted    that     his     decision 


Charging  that  her  husband  died 
through  negligence  of  the  Union 
Furniture  Company  when  they  took 
her  bad  away  and  forced  her  siek 
husband  to  sleep  on  the  floor.  Jfrs. 
Josephine  Johnson,  after  a  year, 
is  still  fighUng  frjr  i25,000  damages 
from   the  San    Francisco   company. 

In  September.  1933,  Mrs.  John- 
son, who  then  lived  at  214  Har- 
riet Street,  with  her  husband  Jobs 
Johnson,  left  for  Kansas  City. 
Missouri,  to  attend  the  illness  of 
her  mother.  Following  the  deatb 
of  her  parent,  the  couple  returned 
to  San  Francisco  in  January,  to 
find  that  the  Union  Furniture 
Company  from  whom  they  were 
buvini;  tuuis^  fumishinga.  had  ca- 
tered their  home  and  removed 
the  furniture,  claiming  that  pajr- 
ments  had  been   In  arrears. 

Included  in  the  furniture  i»- 
possesacd  was  g^<  bed.  a  dreaaar 
and  a  chifforobe  which  was  ti* 
property  of  the  Johnsons  ai^ 
which  had  not  even  been  purchaa- 
ed   from   the   Union   Company. 

Mr.  Johnson  was  ill  at  the  tisM 
or  bis  return,  having  been  gassed 
during  the  World  War.  When  MMl 
Johnson  made  demand  for  the  re- 
turn of  their  bed,  the  company 
promised  to  comply.  This  they  did 
not  do,  and  when  night  came 
Mrs.  Johnson  made-^  bed  for  ber 
husband  on  an  old  mattress  placed 
on  the  floor  January  chill,  creep- 
ing under  the  door  silla  faroocSt 
on  an  attack  of  double  pneumonia 
and  several  days  later  _  th^^  sick 
veteran    died. 

The  suit,  presented  by  Attorney 
Edward  MabsoB.  councel  TdTBn.

Well,  well,  looks  like  our  re- 
cord breaktnir  crowd  of  2230  fold 
adKiissions  for  the  Les  Hlte  Arm-

for  the  writer  to  crow  about  We 
have  clippings  from  a  Pittsburgh 
paper  that  shows  Mills  Blue  Rhy- 
thm band  drew  the  "largest  crowd 
of  the  year"  last  Wednesday  at 
tbe  Savoy  ballroom-  -thoy  had  140u 
oa^i  customers.  Three  ttmes  "Ano-

UOO  and  don't  be  surprised  If  I 
pass   that   total    on   April   19th. 


This  has  been  a  week  of  much 
excitement  for  the  boys.  First, 
ths  Irish  Sweepstakes  caused  ma- 
ny of  the  gang  to  go  hurrying 
Into  the  old  jeans  to  check  their 
^U  Hollywood  j  tickets  of  chance,  and  tho  final 
ti<jc.  .They  call  ( argument  as  to  what  each  would 
have  done  if  he  had  won.  Its  a 
Idiown  fact  that  Red  Caps  will 
take  a  chance  Some  take  foolish 
bites  at  sucker  bait.  Take  Clutch 
Turban,  for  Instance,  when  he 
was  tricked  by  a  dark  secret  a 
gentlemo*  of  decided  color,  (that 
Is,  he  told  Clutch  he  was  a  gen- 
tlemaa.)  Tha  gentleman  asked 
Clutch,  "Con  you  use  some  groc- 
eries chijap?"  CTutch;  "What  you 
got?"  Gent;  Three  hams,  1  sack 
of  rice,  1  uack  of  sugar,"  Clutch; 
"For.  how  much?"  Gent;  "Six 
bucks."  C^Iutch;  "O.k."  And  folks, 
believe  or  not  Turban,  the  wise 
guy,  gave  the  stranger  six  bucks 
and  ia  still  waiting  for  his  hams 
and  rice.

LOUIS  TO  MEET 
PRIMO  IN  JUNE  BOOT 


bia    production    co-starring    Bruce 
Cabot   and  Judith  Allan. 


When  the  Michigan  Unlvervlty 
track  and  field  team  steps  onto 
Edwards  Field  against  the  Gol- 
den Bears  on  Saturday,  April  Itth, 
NVillls  Ward,  one  of  the  greatest 
athletes  to  ever  pull  on  a  spike, 
will  be  the  "work  horae"  of  the 
Ann  Arbor  team. 

Coach  Chaa,  Hoyt  has  selected 
a  team  of  22  men,  nine  sophomores 
all  of  whom  have .  captured  their 
letters  this  year,  eight  juniors 
and  five  seniors. 

\\'ard's  Last   Year 

Ward  is  among  the  latter  quin- 
tet and  this  will  be  one  of  hla  fi- 
nal appearances  flying  the  colors 
of  the  Michigan   U. 

The  famous  race  star  leads  all 
his  teammates  for  events.  Coach 
Hoyt  sending  word  that  Ward  will 
compete    in    the    following: 

100  yard  dash,  high  hurdles, 
high  jump   and   broad  jump. 

I  have  been  informed  that  there 
would  be  another  colored  lad  on 
the  team,  but  at  this  writing  we 
were  unable  to  learn  his  name  or 
the  events  in  which  he  would 
compete. 

•HTentury"    Big    Event 

The  event  which  will  attract 
the  most  attention  will  be  on  the 
cinder  path,  when  Ward  hooks 
up  with  California's  star  sprinter, 
(George  Anderson  and  their  next 
best,  "Mushy"  Pollock.  Anderson 
has  run  the  100  official  in  9.6  and 
unofficially  in  9.4.  Both  lads  of 
the  "blue  and  gold"  jersey  expect 
to  show  their  heels  to  Ward,  but 
I  am  here  to  tell  you  Willis  is  a 
"competition  man'  and  is  liable 
to   pull    up   in    front. 

The  Michigan  crew  is  scheduled 
to  arrive  next  Tuesday  and  Ward 
will  be  honored  by  the  Alpha 
fraternity  Saturday   night.

Again  we  find  that  atrange  sit- 
uation of  "Lambs  eating  up  the 
Wolves."  Ptajrlng  as  partners  In 
the  Monarch  Bridge  club.  A  hot 
rivalry  developed  between  Payne 
and  Butcher,  (wolves)  agaltut 
King  and  Dr.  Leneor.  (lambs)  and 
when  the  smoke  had  cleared,  tha 
lambs  had  completely  devoured 
the  wolves.  Payne,  like  a  good 
Republican,  demanded  a  recount, 
which  was  granted,  but  Dr.  and 
King  had  points  to  spare,  and 
were  Payne  and  Butcher's  faces 
red. 

The  wild  scramble  for  the  best 
jobs  and  houra  after  the  change 
in  schedule  of  8.  P.  Poaaanger 
trains  is  about  over.  B.  Hancock 
gave  up  his  one-man  Capt  Job  at 
Berkeley  for  one  of  the  new 
8  hour  jobs  at  the  Ferry  BIdg. 
Chas.  (3ibsoD  fsll  heir  to  the  other 
one,  and  all  Is  quiet  on  the  West- 
ern front  again. 


A  night  wire  from  Julian  Black, 
co-manager  of  Joe  Louis  with 
John  Roxborough,  t'ullowed  by 
news  clippings,  tells  why  Nntie 
Brown  was  able  to  go  ten  rounds, 
and  receive  a  severe  beating  for 
bia  troubles.  Between  the  lines, 
the  writer  also  gathcr.s  ^hat  Loui.s 
mai'-not  beia^lo  to  return  to  San 
Fiancisco  next  month  as  he  ex- 
pected. Fighting  16  bouts  In  lass 
than  10  .months  is  quite  a  strain 
on  a  youngateir  like  Joe.  who  has 
not  fully  matured  yet,  and  he  may 
hang  up  the  gloves  for  a  months 
rest.  Before  May  Ist  they  will 
decide  whether  to  come  west  again. 
One  thing  already  decided.  Is 
that  they  will  set  up  a  training 
camp  In  New  Jersey  the  latter 
part  of  this  month  or  the  first 
week   In  May. 

Browa   a   "Clutcher" 

Clippings  from  storlea  by  three 
of  Detroit's  largest  dally  papers, 
verify  Black's  wire  that  Brown 
"went  the  distance  only  by  clinch- 
ing and  refusing  to  stand  up  and 
fight."  Here  are  excerpta  from  the 
telegram: 

Louis  wins  every  round  from 
Notie  Brewn  before  <M0O  house. 
Brown  Kurvlvrd  first  round  knock- 
down of  nine  sad  stayed  covered. 
up  thereafter — when  Joe  came  back 
Id  third  and  aaid  he  hart  his  right 
hand  slightly  bf  striking  Brown 
OB  head,  Bladcburn  gave  him  In- 
atmrtions  to  take  no  chances  of 
iaiuring  hla  handa  LauU  dhl  all 
tiie  fIghUng  after  tkat  Brown 
content  to  hang  on  and  stay  the 
UmlL  Brown  clinched  so  much 
that  Joe  often  had  to  pull  him- 
self away.  One  writer  said  Brown 
should  l{e  called  "Brown  the 
Clutcher".  Cannot  give  aoj'  de- 
finite answer  about  trip  west  now 
and  Joe  will  probably  rest  this 
month — Beoelved  your  wire  abou.

PLUMBER  PLUMBED 

Jaines  Galley,  340  Dlvisadero  St., 
complained  that  a  very  pretty  wo- 
man about  S5  years  of  age  tried  to 
engage  bim  to  do  some  plumbing. 
Galley  told  her  the  plumbing  she 
wanted  him  to  do  was  against 
the  law.  She  replied,  'There  are 
lots  of  things  against  the  law." 
Galley  stated  that  he  had  threat- 
ened to  kick  her  shins  before  she 
would  leave.  After  her  departure. 
Ganey  examined  his  wallet  and 
found  that  a  JlO  and  a  »5  were 
mis.sing. 


ACORN   SKATERS 

San  Francisco  speed  artists  as 
well  as  those  of  Oakland,  are  ex- 
pected to  take  part  in  the  racing 
eVents  which  the  Acorn  Club  will 
stage  at  their  Skating  Party, 
Sunday  morning  from  10:30  lu 
1:30    p.   m.   at    Rollerland   Rink. 

Instead  of  the  usual  complimen- 
tary tickets  for  the  winners,  there 
will  bo  cash  prizes  worth  while 
competing  for.  Oakland  champs 
are  ready  for  the  races,  confident 
they  crtn  easily  whip  any  ot  the 
'Frisco  lads  who  cross  the  Bay 
and  attempt  to  .steal  tjicir  plunder. 


aaude  McWllllams  lontlnuea  to 
be  the  important  cos  '"  the  Sac- 
ramento Junior  College  Track 
team,  as  they  move  around  this 
neck  of  the  woods  defeating  all 
comers. 

A  few  weeks  ago  the  (7apltol 
City  Jaysee  squad  dumped  the  UC. 
frosh  and  last  Saturday  they  did 
the  same  thing  to  Stanford's  fresh- 
man team. 

And  also  again,  the  San  Fran- 
cisco race  lad  was  high  point  man. 
Claude  copped  first  in  the  100 
yard  dash  with  a  slower  than 
usual  lime  uf  10.2  and  led  the 
broad  jump  field  with  u  leap  of 
22  ft.  10  in.  He  hud  to  be  satis- 
fied with  second  in  the  2'JO.  how- 
ever, getting  off  to  a  bad  slart. 
If  he  had  won  this  event  a.s  he 
did  against  the  Bear  yearlings, 
the  score  would  have  been  almost 
the  same  as  the  U.C.  meet,  as  it 
was,  Stanford  finished  on  the 
short   end   of  a  71    to  01    score. 

SKAOWAY  'SOI'RDOIJGH' 
ORPHEUM    ATTRACTION 

Two  flrat  run  feature  pictures 
plus  a  novel  stage  attraction  make 
up  the  new  show  starting  Thurs- 
day al  the  Orpheum  Theatre 

On  the  screen,  there  is  Damon 
Runyon's  Collier's  Magazine  story, 
"Princess  O'Hara",  the  story  of  a  ] 
Broadway  show-girl  who  drives 
a  hack,  hitched  to  a  stolen  {50,000 
race  horse  in  competition  to  the 
city's  taxicubs. 

The  companion  screen  feature 
is  "The  Hoosier  Schoolmaster",  ad- 
apted from  the  beloved  novel  by 
Edward  Eggleslon. 

On  the  singe,  as  an  extra  added 
attraction,  the  Orpheum  presents  | 
Martin  Itjen,  c.illed  the  'Chic 
Sale"  of  Skagway.  Iljcn  is  a  real 
"sourdough  ■  who  operates  the  on- 
ly streetcar  in  Skagway,  and  has 
just  returned  from  Hollywood 
where  he  went  to  sec  Mae  West 
in  responce  to  her  invitation  to 
"come  up  and  see  me  sometime"' 
Itjen  appears  at  every  perofrmance 
and  tells  of  the  days  when  the 
Yukon  really  ""flamed"  !  He  also 
brought  along  his  famous  .«;treet- 
car  and  it  will  be  seen  on  ^he 
streets  of  San  Kr.incisco  eyerj- 
day  duruig  his  eagagemcnt  on 
the  stage  al  the  Orpheum.  Regu- 
lar prices  prevail  for  this  bog 
atag:e    and    screen    show.

.NEW    YORK,    March    28  -  Every 


CARNERA  BOUT  MAY 
KEEP  LOUIS  FROM 
RETURNING  TO  S.F. 


Even  tho  Louis  has  a  big  bai- 
lie in  front  of  blm  With  Primo 
Camera,  this  combat  Is  not  until 
June  19th  and  nn  energiUc  lad 
likti  Louis  should  have  at  least 
one  bout  in  between.  Damon  Run- 
yon, foremost  sport  critic  says 
this  match  la  "the  blggeat  bout 
of  the  year"  and  Eaaternera  claim 
the  gato  may  hit  the  IBOO.OOO 
mark. 

The  match  is  the  Ulk  of  the 
fistic  world.  muc;b  pro  and  con 
flying  as  to  whether  the  20-year 
old  kid  la  ready  ofr  the  giant 
Italian.  Well,  Camera  Is  big  and 
strong. but  cannot  punch  as  hard 
with  both  hands  as  Louis  can 
with  one.  so  we  look  for  him  to 
cut  PrlMo  down  to  hi*  slie  and 
then  "turn  on  the  beat".  And  if 
Ihe  bout  draws  anything  around 
the  predicted  amount,  his  end  of 
the   purse  will  be   around   $100,000.

With  the  tourist  trade  one  of

obtain  permanent  residents,  the 
fear  of  an  income  tax  is  felt  by 
everyone,  but  especially  by  the 
realtors  and  builders,  as  well  as 
the  retailers  of  expensive  mer-

the  incomes,  California  should  hes-

8.  F.  SCHOOL  OPENS 

SPRING  CIRRICULUM 

Registrations  are  still  being  ac- 
cepted for  the  new  Urm  of  the 
Workers"  School,    now   starting. 

The  present  curriculum  Includes 
courses  in  Fundamentals  of  Econ- 
omics. Intermediate  and  Advanced 
Economics,  Leninism,  Why  Com- 
hiuniam  and  a  course  In  Trade 
Unionism.  Fees  are  extremely 
modarata,    with    special    allowance 


However,  the  liquor  people  are 
out  to  place  retailing  on  ,a  firm 
foundation  and  they  do  not  want 
to  see  liberal  liquor  legislation 
passed  until  the  industry  has  had 
an  opportunity  to  clean  house 
"We  do  not  want  a  repetition  of 
the  prohibition  era",  declared  a 
liquor  man,  "and  we  will  fight 
for  sane  control  in  the  belief  that 
all  will  benefit."  Quite  a  change 
in  attitude  ffom  the  saloon  days 
when  the  hard-liquor  boys  brag- 
ged that  they  could  beat  any  re- 
gulation. 

Building     and     Loan     Disputes 

Building  and  Loan  Association 
stockholders,  shareholders  and  cer- 
tificate holders  will  finally  be 
able  to  inspect  their  company 
books,  if  the  Evan's  Amendment 
voted  into  the  Scudder  proposed 
BuUding  and  Loan  Act,  is  intact 
at   the   final    passage   of   the   bill. 

For  three  weeks  debate  has 
see-sawed  on  this  controversial 
question  of  regulating  the  loan 
companies. 

Sinclair    Proposals    Dumped 

"Production  for  use"  theories 
were  -dumped  in  the  waste  baaket 
when  an  alert  Senate  downed 
the   Olson-sponsored   self   help   act 

Distinctly  that  part  of  the  Sin- 
clair dictated-  Democratic  plat- 
form which  brought  out  |yie 
George  Creel  fireworks,  this,  at- 
tempted step  in  the  direction  of 
State  Socialism  was  cleanly  fore- 
stalled. 

Proponents  of  the  Olson  Bill 
loudly  pointed  to  the  nineteen 
Senate  votes  that  supported  them. 
However,  among  those  voting  on 
the  hopeless  proposition  with  the 
titular  Democratic  State  leader, 
were  seven  reactionary  Senators 
who  needed  Olson's  backing  later 
for   their   owrf   pet   bills. 

One  Senator  said,  flicking  the 
ash  from  his  Havana  cigar,  "My 
vote  was  merely  a  Senatorial 
Courtesy."  Sometime  Culbert  Olson 
will  discover  the  ways  of  the 
House    of   Lords.

MEDICINE  KILLS  CHILDREN 

SOUTHERN  TANGANYIKA. 
Africa-(By  Mall' to  CNAi  Twen- 
ty-five Mhool  children  are  dead 
and  twenty-thrM  others  seriously 
"I  here  from  tke  effects  of  a 
medicine"  administered  bv  the 
white    school    pl|ralclaii 

A  cheoMcal  •nbyai,  of  the  med- 
iclne  showed  that  It  was  a  poison- 
ous solution  of  K,ap  conUinInf 
.arsenic. 


An  added  reason  for  organized 
effort  toward  traffic  .safety  and 
accident  prevention  as  a  result 
of  the  36.000  deaths  and  nearly 
l.OOOJXM  people  injured  in  auto- 
mobile accidents  in  the  United 
States  last  year,  is  pointed  out  by 
Mr  Wm.  Niekerson.  Jr..  nrcsident- 
m.inager  of  the  Golden  State  Mu- 
tual   Life   Insurance    Company. 

"Probably  nearly  every  one  of 
tho.se    injured    in    automobile    acci- 

I  dents  "    Mr.    Nickerson    said,    "sus- 

I  tained  some  loss  of  time  and  con- 
sequently of   salary   or   wages,    nnd 

I  a  large  part  of  the  deaths  from 
automobils  accidents  deprived  « 
family  of  its  wage   earner" 

"It  is  to  emphasize  the  necessity 
and  the  possibility  of  finding  some 
way  to  replace,  in  part  at  least, 
lost   time  .ind   resulting  loss  of   in- 

j  come  due  to  accidents  and  ill- 
neaa.  that  next  week.  April  15  to 
30,  has  been  set  aside  as  the 
first  National  Acoident  and  Heakh 
Insurance    Week." 

All  of  the  major  insurance  com- 
panieh  that  deal  in  acclAnt  and 
health  business  have  perfected 
plans    for    the    observance    of    that 

■  week.  By  virtue  of  the  fact  that 
the  Golden  Stale  Mutual  ranks 
sixteenth  among  one  hundred  co- 
mpanies doing  this  class  of  busi- 
ness in  this  state,  it  is  one  of  vhe 
leaders.  The  officers  expect  to 
see  to  it  that  the  company  is 
well  represented  in  all  progressive 
movements  and  maintain  its  high 
position. 

I  Many  Accidents  in  Home 

'  WTiile  automobile  accidents  are 
more  spectacular  .and  are  there- 
fore given  more  attention,  Mr, 
Nickerson  poinLs  out  further  that 
accidents  in  the  home  last  year 
caused  33.000  deaths,  very  nearly 
as  many  as  Btlribuled  to  motor 
vehicles.  There  has  always  been 
a  popular  belief  that  home  was 
the  safest  place  lo  be.  but  these 
figures    disprove    the    theory. 

The  bathroom  is  by  far  the 
most  dangerous  room  in  the  home. 
The  National  Safely  Council  re- 
ports that  there  are  4S.000  persona 
Injured  annually  while  taking  a 
iMlh.  Falls  of  all  kind.s.  Including 
those    from    stepladders,    on    stairs 

j  or    slippery    floors,    account    for    45 

,  per  cent  of  the  home  accidents, 
while  13  per  cent  are  due  to  cuts, 
6  per  cent  lo  collision  with  objects 
and  the  remainder  under  various 
classifications.  About  65  per  cent 
of  these  accidents  occur  Inside 
of  the  house  and  39  per  cent  out- 
side. 

Sports    and    Reereation    Toll 
Sports    and    recreations    are    res- 

( pnnsible  for  nearly  23  percent  of 
the  accident  claims.  Insurance 
company  records  show,  while  occu- 

j  pallona   linjuries.  which   would   na- 

,  lurally  be  regarded  as  coming 
close    to   the   lop   of    the    li.st.   were 

!  responsible  for  only  about  IS  per 
cent. 

Sickness  disability  Is.  of  course, 
even    more    widespread    than    that 

j  due  to  accidents  and  Is  not  con- 
fined by  any  means  to  the  major 
diaea.ses.  For  example,  medical 
per  cent  of  the  people  of  the  Uni- 
aulborilies  report  that  almut  SS 
ted  Stales  may  be  listed  at  any 
time  as  suffering  from  the  ail- 
ment known  as  "a  bad  told",  and 
that  one  person  dies  every  four 
minutes  in  the  United  State*  from 
pneumonia  or  other  disease  trace- 
able  to  .the   common   cold.

Oil,  on  the  golden  liquid  in 
which  many  hard-earned  life  sav- 
ings have  been  sunk,  will  soon 
become  a  household  word  in  the 
Bay  district  if  the  plans  of  the 
Pacific  Oil  and  Gas  Development 
Corporation  to  hire  high-pressure 
Negro  salesmen  to  bombard  a  lo- 
cal   sucker   list,    materializes. 

The  Company  has  advertised  In 
local  papers  for  salesmen,  and 
organiiations  and  professional 
oeople  In  both  Oakland  and  San 
Francisco  have  lieen  approached 
to  lend  their  support  lo  their 
soeculative  schemes  it  was  learn- 
ed   last   week. 

The  project,  which  was  Orat 
wesented  to  th*  pubUc  last  year, 
oropoacs  to  sell  sub-lenses  in  Mer- 
ced and  Fresno  Counties  in  Ike 
hope  that  gaa  or  oil  may  be  f«»d 
on  the  leased  lands.  The  neasest 
development  of  oil  lo  the  Doe 
Palos  site  is  at  Coalinga.  48  mOaa 
away. 

Investigation  shows  in  1934.  a 
radio  company  sought  Information 
from  reliable  sources  on  the  Com- 
pany and  officers  who  then  want- 
ed to  doae  a  br«>adcastlng  con- 
tract. James  P.  George,  president. 
B.  N.  Lachman.  vice  president, 
and  Wm.  Klein,  secretary,  the 
company  was  told  have  been  In- 
volved in  several  court  cases. 
George  was  connected  with  the 
L.  L.  Salache  oil  promotion  deal 
and  the  Pacific  Realty  fraud.  "Die 
deal  was  reversed,  but  1(]|en 
George  refunded  the  money  the

the  Division  of  Corporations  s^ya 
Klein  was  convicted  in  a  Federal 
receivership  case,  but  won  on  1^

George  and  Klein  last  week 
faced  contempt  charges  for  violat- 
ing a  restraining  order  issued  to 
Miller  and  Lux  forbidding  the 
two  to  transport  prospective  spae-

their  reputation  has  been  tea|. 
aged  by  sales  talks  of  Parific  Oil 
and    Gas    Development    salesmen. 

Reports  of  the  Real  Eatata 
Commissioner  says  that  it  is  eri.

VENTRILOQUIST,  BAND 

Frank  Rogers,  the  ventriloquist 
with  the  Harlem  Rhapsody,  which 
starts  today  its  first  week's  en- 
gagement at  the  Capitol  theatre, 
claims   two   distinctions: 

First:  That  he  Is  the  only  col- 
ored man  in  America  who  can 
speak    Chinese    fluently. 

Secondly:  That  he  is  the  only 
colored  ventriloquist  on  the  Amer- 
ican   stage    today. 

Rogers  spent  ten  years  In  the 
Orient,  coming  in  intimate  con- 
tact with  Cantonese-speaking  Chi- 
nese. Having  mastered  so  difficult 
a  means  of  speech,  ventriloquism 
appeared  easy  to  the  actor  and  he 
soon  ■  became  so  renowned  for  his

Musician  "  '  »»^«f;ixVxrose 

Between  Jim  Crow 

Union  and  Scabbing 


EDITORIAL 

WHEN  NEGRO  MUSICIANS  recently  got  contracta 
for  several  lucrative  night  clubs,  white  musicians'  Local  No. 
0  promptly  apftealed  to  club  proprietors  to  discharge  Ne- 
groes, replute  with  whites.  At  that  time,  both  while  and 
Ncgrt^  musicians  were  A.  F.  of  L.  members.  Negroes  lost 
their  jobs. 

Negn)  Local  048  retaliated,  carried  Local  (5  to  court. 
Net  result:  Local  048  kicked  out  of  the  A.  F.  of  L. 

Now  comes  I..ocal  6  with  an  olive  branch,  offering 
Negro  musicians  membership  in  a  SUBSIDIARY  of  Local 
0.  Reason:  night  club  proprietors  prefer  Negrtj  bands,  un- 
ion or  non-union.  They  attract  patrons,  fill  cash  registers. 
Reason  No.  2:  More  members  of  Local  6  mean  more  votes 
for  whoever  wants  to  control  Local  6. 

Question:  what  are  the  benefits  to  be  derived  by  Negro 
musicians  from  joining  a  tjubsidiury  of  I>x:a!  6?  What  are 
the  disadvantages? 

Benefit  No.  1,  as  The  Spokesman  s^-es  it,  is  the  advan- 
tage of  organization.  This  is  vital  for  any  form  of  collittivc 
bargaining  with  employers.  l.JikKjr'H  struggle  becomes  ef- 
fi-ctive  with  organization;   it  is  futile  without  it. 

Benefit  No.  2.  is  the  fact  that  Negro  musicians   will 
receive  the  same  wage   as  other   union   musicians.    Differ- 
ential  wage   rates  are   the  principal   weapons  of   lalx>r  ex 
liloiters.    They    explain    the    Negro's    economic    demoraliza- 
tion below  the  Mason  and  Dixon  line. 

Benefit  No.  ,3,  ojjens  San   Franci.sco  territorj'  to  Oak- 
Is:  nd    musicians.    Most    Negro   musicians   live    in    Blast    Bay ; 
cities.  Ixx-al  6  used  this  argument  to  dihcriminate  again.st 
Negroes  in  former  instances. 

Chief  disadvantage  is  the  fact  that  the  subsidiary 
local  will  be  jim  crow.  It  is  a  question  whether  the  best 
fight  against  .segregation  can  be  made  from  within  or  with-  ', 
out  the  ranks  of  union  labor.  The  Spokesman  is  not  ctn- 
cemed  so  long  as  the  fight  is  made.  If  the  Negro  musicians 
accept  Local  Six's  terms,  let  them  do  so  with  the  reserva- 
tion that  it  is  only  a  partial  step  to  what  they  really  want. 
Let  them  not  he  deceived  by  artful  words  in  the  subsidiary 
union's  agreement.  The  subsidiary  union  is  simply  a  device 
to  segregate  them,  to  deprive  them  of  the  right  to  auto- 
nomous action.  Once  members,  their  appeal  must  pass  al- 
ways through  Local  6. 

If  Local  6  intends  to  do  the  right  thing,  it  will  admit 
Negro  musicians  on  an  equal  basis  with  other  musicians. 
The  necessity  for  a  subsidiary  uni(/n  seems  to  be  pure  un- 
adulterated  hokum. 

Negro  musicians  have  then  the  alternative  of  choosing  1 
one  of  two  arrangements :  ( 1 )  Entering  a  jim  crow  union  I 
in  which  they  must  accept  the  dictation  of  professional  I 
competitors;  or   (2)   scabbing.  I 

Of  the  two  evils  The  Spokesman  would  recommend  the  ' 
lesser,  which  in  this  case  happens  to  be  accepting  a  subsid- 
iary status.  Once  organized,  it  will  then  be  much  easier  to 
dicker  with  Local  6,  and  if  no  terms  are  agreed  upon,  to 
throw  up  the  whole  thing  and  scab  again.  But  outside  of 
the  labor  movement  is  no  place  for  Negroes,  of  whatever 
skill  or  profession.  Let  all  those  who  are  skeptical  remem- 
ber the  International  Longshoremen's  Association! 

Negro  labor  and  white  labor,  must  be  united.  This  is 
paramount — at  whatever  cost.

HATFIELD  REWARDS  THE  NEGRO  VOTERS 

IMPELLED  BY  A  DEEP  SEINSE  of  loyalty  and  grati- 
tude, we  surmise.  Lieutenant  Governor  Hatfield  recently 
announced  with  much  blare  and  publicity  the  appointment 
of  a  Sacramento  youth  as  his  personal  page.  "Generous 
George"  doubtless  believes  that  his  campaign  books  are 
now  out  of  the  red  as  far  as  Negro  voters  are  concerned. 

Whatever  the  Lieutenant  Governor  may  have  been  told 
by  others  who  presume  to  speak  for  all  Negroes,  The 
Spokesman  submits  its  opinion  that  most  California  Ne- 
groes now  consider  the  Merriam-Hatfield  aggregation  as 
nothing  more  than  professional  purveyors  of  1(X)  per  cent 
buncombe. 

We  of  the  Bay  Cities,  especially,  know  that  the  election 
of  the  present  administration  was  urged  by  honest,  able 
Negroes,  who  sincerely  believed  that  pohticians  keep  their 
promises.  Example:  Edward  Faucett,  who  retired  recently 
after  conducting  for  many  years  a  successful  tailoring  es- 
tablishment, addressed  a  radio  audience  and  promoted  an 
extensive  campaign  in  behalf  of  the  Merriam-Hatfield  can- 
didacy. Mr.  Faucett  is  more  able  than  many  of  the  recent 
appointees,  more  honest  than  both  Messrs.  Iferriam  and 
Hatfield  combined.  That  he  did  not  expect  a  reward  for  his 
efforts  is  unimportant.  The  significant  thing  is  that  neither 
Mr.  Faucett  nor  any  other  Negro  of  merit  has  been  asked 
to  help  the  administration  do  its  job. 

But  all  this  is  beside  the  point!  Let  Mr.  Hatfield  get 
this  through  his  skull;  no  mere  appointment  of  a  Negro 
youth  as  a  flunky,  nor  even  the  appointment  of  several  Ne- 
gro leaders  as  administrative  subordinates,  will  satisfy  the 
eighty  thousand  Aframericans  who  live  in  this  state.  These 
people  don't  want  poUtical  sops,  or  the  chance  for  a  few  of 
their  leaders  to  feel  important.  They  want  employment, 
living  wages,  decent  working  conditions.  They  want  cloth- 
ing, shelter,  food. 

No.  Mr.  Hatfield,  the  day  is  gone  when  you  and  your 
kind  can  toss  a  crumb  to  beggars  and  glow  with  self- 
righteousness.  Nowadays,  beggars  are  learning  to  carry 
clubs.

Post   HIU   SpecuUtors 

In  recommending  a  zoning  law 
to  break  the  high  land  values  in 
the  Harlem  area,  which  i.s  ap- 
praised at  t2iM>,000.000,  Commls- 
I  sioner  Post  testified  that  local 
rents  were  being  boosted  to  un- 
reasonable heights  by  unscrupu-  : 
lous  speculators  "in  sort  of  anU- 
clpatlon  and  hope  that  some  day 
Harlem  will  become  an  area  of 
sky-scrapers  and  property  will  in- 
crease tremendously  in  value." 
His  testimony  was  given  before 
thr  housing  sub-committee,  which 
was  presided  over  by  Attorney 
Morris  L.  Ernst.  Dr.  Charles  Ro- 
berts. Harlem  dentist,  is  chairman 
of  the   Mayor's  Committee 

Stating    that    it     would    be    im- 
possible    to     get     private     Interests 
!  to    reduce     "the     ridiculously     high 
land    values"    of    Harlem    property, 
Mr.    Post    recommended    a    zoning 
law  to  reduce  the  local  land  value 
from    tlO    a    square    foot    to    S3    a 
I  square    foot.    This,    he    said,    would

Bill  to  Bar 
Racejurors 


MONTGOMEKY.    Ala     April    12 

A  bill  to  restrict  jury  service 
In  Alabama  to  quaTifieU  voters 
will  be  introducrd  in  the  Htate 
.tenate  April  30  by  .Senator  Bon- 
ner of  Camden,  ht-  announced 
here    this    week. 

The  pur|K>se  of  the  bill  ia  to 
attempt  to  get  around  the  Unite*! 
Stales  Supreme  Courl  deci!<ion  in 
thr    Scottsboro    case. 

Obser\'ers  were  quick  to  Me 
Ihe  connection  tx-tween  the  U.  8. 
supreme  court'.-,  decisions  in  the 
Texas  primary  case  and  the 
Scottsboro  rase  Although  thr 
.'^otlsboro  decision  was  a  great 
victory,  southerner!,  immediately 
tied  it  up  with  the  Texa.s  decis- 
ion denying  Negroes  the  right  tu 
vote  In  the  Democratic  primaries 
and  Senator  Bonner's  proposed  i 
bill  is  the  result  of  their  study 
of  ways  and  means  to  still  ex- 
clude   Negroes    from    jury    service. 

Senator  Bonner's  bill  brings  to 
the  front  once  more  the  great 
importance  of  thr  various  pri- 
mary fights  which  have  been  car- 
ried on  in  the  past  ten  years  and 
which  on  occasion  have  been  de- 
nounced as  "useless"  by  some 
persons  who  did  not  realize  their , 
importance.  , 

Supported  by  a  decision  which 
effectively  disfranchises  Negroes 
it  is  possible  tliat  reactionary  ele- 
ments in  the  South  will  be  able ' 
to  baae  all  sorts  of  discrimination 
against  the  Negro  upon  the  re- 
quirement of  their  being  qualified 
voters.  This  is  what  happened  in 
New  Orleans  in  1933  when  the  city 
council  attempted  to  pass  a  reso-  < 
I'jUon  restricting  employment  on 
,1  huge  bridge,  a  public  works 
project,    to    registered    voters.  |

conditions  in  the  economic  field 
are  thr  worst  since  slavery,  waa 
thr  contention  of  Dr  John  Hope. 
prr.iident  of  Atlanta  University, 
in  an  address  to  the  quadrennial 
Human  Relations  Institute  at  tbe 
L'niverslty  of  North  Carolina 
Tuesday. 

Dr  Hope  declared  that  in  the 
face  of  so  much  unemployment, 
12  million  citizens  were  being 
"flattened  out  economically,"  be- 
cause they  were  unable  to  com- 
pete successfully  for  jobs.  He 
made  a  plea  for  better  education- 
al ndvantages. 

Among  others  who  have  ad- 
dressed the  Institute  during  the

A  three  year  court  fight  for 
damages  for  Injuries  received 
when  be  was  struck  by  a  ma- 
chine at  Van  Ness  and  Geary 
sts  in  1932.  resulted  n  a  jury 
award  of  S7iM0  in  cash  to  Wil- 
liam Kingston,  San  Francisco 
war   veteran. 

Kingston  was  struck  by  a  ma- 
chine driven  by  Helmut  Hardt. 
white,  in  Octol>er  ll>32.  who  was 
travelling  past  the  central  line  of 
tbe  street.  The  ex-soldier  received 
a  fractured  skull,  contusion  of 
the  brain  and  other  injurie.s  to 
which  is  directly  traceable  an  at- 
tack of  meningifls  and  occasional 
epileptic    selxurea. 

Tbe  General  Accident  Insurance 
Company,  who  fought  giving  dam- 
ages in  the  case  maintained  that 
Kingston  was  not  in  the  pedes- 
trian zone  when  he  was  struck, 
claiming     contributory     negligenif. 

A  request  by  the  Company  for 
a  non-suit  as  well  as  a  directed 
verdict  was  denied  by  Judge 
James  O.  Conion  early  in  the 
trial.  Judge  Conion  also  forestall- 
ed attempts  of  tbe  Company  at- 
torney to  int«ct  the  racial  issue 
into    the    trial. 

As  a  last  resort,  the  insurance 
group  have  asked  (or  a  motion 
for  Judgment  notwithstanding  the 
Jury  verdict,  wUch  would  deny 
Kingston  his  |7B0O  Ta  spiU  of  the 
jury  decision.  It  was  held  unlike- 
ly that  Judge  Conion  would  admit 
the  motion,  since  their  latest 
move  is  based  upon  the  same  con- 
tentions denied  in  their  earlier 
attempts  to  quash  the   suit. 

Atty.  Walter  Olds  represented 
Kingston.

duous pursuits  involving,  in  part,

State  and  his  Ph.  D.  at  Cornell. 
Dr.  Patterson  is  an  agricultural 
expert  and  a  veterinarian.  At  one 
time,  he  Is  said  to  have  consid- 
ered setting  up  a  veterinarian 
hospital. 

Among  the  first  projects  of  tbe 
new  president  will  be  the  rehabili- 
tation of  M  Alabama  families 
what  will  be  known  as  the  "Tus- 
kegee Self-Help  Cooperative  of

By  Byron  "Speed"  Iteilly 
Brutus  Hamilton's  Golden 
Bear  track  and  field  team  were 
tavoritea  agajnst  Michigan  U. 
last  Saturday  and  u-i  pre-dope, 
romped  off  with  a  victory,  but 
It  was  certainly  not  the  fault  of 
Michigan's  star  squad  member, 
I  Willis  Ward 

I      Ward     proved     to     be     all     that 
j  Eastern    and     West    Coast    scribes 
'  said   he   was.   and   altho    liampered 
I  by   a  slow  track   and   almost   slop- 
I  py    field,    the    sensational    colored 
star     rolled     up     a      total      of      17 
points    for    high    |)oint    honors. 
Lioses    Close    klacr 
The     outstanding     event     of     the 
day  was  the   100-yard   dash,   which 
found     Willis      being      nosed      out 
by    California's    flash.    Anderson. 

Anderson  also  finished  in  front 
of   Ward    in    the   shot    put. 

However,    Ward   took    first    place 

In    the   high    hurdles    with    a    time 

of    14.8;    first    in    the    broad    jumi> 

with    a    leap    of    23    feet    ll'^i     in 

In  the  high  jump,  he  tied  for  first 

place     with     Moisio,     at     6     feet. 

Ward    could    easily    have    won    this 

event,    but    owing    to   l^e    fact   that 

Moisio    was    his    team    mate    and 

they     split     the     first     and     second 

place  pointJj,  he  informed  me   that 

he   did   not   bother   to   jump.   Willis 

has   leaped   as   high  as  6   ft.  7   in., 

so    all    knew    that    he    could    have 

captured    the    jump    if    he    corred 

to.    which     would    have     meant    a 

couple  of   more   points  to  his  total. 

Owens  The  Best 

After   the    meet,   tbe   writer    was 

taken     into     the     gymnasium     by 

Couoh    Charley    Hoyt    of    the    vis- 

I  iting    team,    and    talked    v,rith    sev- 

i  eral   of   Ward's  mates,  while   Ward 

I  was    dressing. 

I      Hoyt,    who    conditioned    bespect- 
j  led    Eddie   Tolan,   agreed    with    the 
I  members    of    this    team,    that    An- 
derson  is   fast,   but   when   he  steps 
on     the     cinder     path     during     the 
'  N.C.A.A.     meet    on    June    22nd,    at 
the      Berkeley      stadium,      he      will 
see  the  heels  of  a  young  freshmen 
I  from     Ohio — right,     Jesse     Owens. 
They  are  all  confident  that  Owens 
can     "take"    the    U.C.    star    in    the 
I  century  and   that  he   will  cop  first 
place    in    the    broad   jump. 

Acorns  to  Entertain 
For  the  National  meet,  all  the 
stars  of  the  track  and  field  will 
be  present.  Ward  himself  re- 
turning. Besides  him  and  Owens. 
Eulace  Peacock  of  Temple.  Ben 
Johnson  and  several  other  out- 
standing Negro  stars  of  E^ostern 
and  middlewest  schools  will  take 
part. 

On  the  night  of  the  meet,  the 
Acorn  club  will  bold  a  public  re- 
ception to  entertain  the  athletic 
stars    and    their    coaches.

It's  way  beyond  any  spook 
thriller  ever  dared  in  pictures. 
Mechanically  and  in  every  other 
way,  it  far  outstrips  the  original 
Fran><cnstein.  a  half  million  dol- 
lars having  been  spent  to  make 
it    the    last   word    in   its   class. 

The    same     lavishness    has    also 
gone    into    the    casting    of    players. 
In      addition      to      Boris       Karloff.lof    the    San    Francisco    News:

Mr.  Robert  Olln,  light  heavy- 
weight champ,  was  a  smart  man 
when  hs  got  a  toothache  and  re- 
gretted he  was  unable  to  meet 
John  Henry  L<ewis  in  New  York 
several  months  ago.  He  was  smart 
again  when  he  put  his  champion- 
ship belt  in  th?  Tamily  trunk 
wh^n  he  met  the  Arizona  school 
boy    in  San    Francisco   last   Friday. 

For  John  Henry,  according  to 
most  sports  writers,  won  every 
round,  gave  Champion  Olin  a 
boxing  lesson,  and  .ilso  adminis- 
tered a  beating  that  is  bound  to 
reflect  in  future  fights  of  the  un- 
fortunate   Robert.

;  NEW  YORK.  April  12  The  de- 
Icision  of  the  United  States  su- 
preme court  giving  a  Democratic 
party  in  Texas  the  right  to  bar 
Negroes  from  membership  und 
thus  prevent  thera  from  voting  in 
\  the  Democratic  primary,  is  being 
studied  by  the  legal  committee  of 
the  National  Association  for  the 
,  Advancement  of  Colored  People, 
together  with  the  briefs  present- 
ed to  the  supreme  court  by  both 
sides. 

I  The  case  was  not  handled  by 
the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  although  it 
had  won  three  successful  Texas 
'  primary  decisions  prior  to  this 
i  case.  The  ease  which  the  su- 
preme court  decided  April  1  was 
I  handled  exclusively  by  Texans, 
I  who  financed  it  from  start  to 
finish. 

i     The     AseociBtion     declared     Ihni 

it    will    give    all    possible    study    to 

■  ways     to    secure    the    participation 

of    qualified    Negro    voters    in    the 

Democratic      primaries      in      Texas 

and  elsewhere  In   the  South.  There 

i  is    a    bare    possibility    that    a    re- 

'  consideration     may    lie    asked,    but 

I  it   is   more    likely    that    if   there    is 

any    chance    of    upsetting    the    rul- 

'ing,    an    entirely    new    case    will    be 

built  up   by  the  Association. 

GOLDEN  STATE  INVESTORS 

RECEIVE  THEIR  CHECKS 

(tnlt-holders  in  the  Golden 
State  Mutual  Life  Insurance 
Company  recently  received  checics 
for  full  payment  of  Interest  for 
the  year  ending  December  31, 
1834.  The  fact  that  the  Ciolden 
State  has  regularly  discharged 
its  interest  obligation  to  Unit- 
holders every  year  while  many 
corporation."!  have  been  unable  to 
pay  dividends,  justifies  the  faith 
and  confidjnre  of  these  investors 
who  made  possible  a  LHe  Insur- 
ance Company  in  the  west  owned 
operated  and  controlled  by  people 
of  African  descent.  It  further 
justifies  the  respect  and  confi- 
dence   of    the    general    public 

Thi.'t  marks  the  ninth  consecut- 
ive year  that  the  Company  has 
paid  interest  to  Unit-hoMcrs.  and 
during  this  period  It  has  paid 
over  a  half  million  dollars  to  Pol- 
icyholders, making  prompt  adjust- 
ment of  every  legitimate  claim. 
These  facts  arc  hnt  further  evi- 
dences of  the  sound  foundation 
on  which  the  Company  is  built, 
its  stability  and  efficient  man- 
agement.

1-MAN  STREET  CARS 
POPULAR  IN  U.  S. 


The  operation  of  the  one-man 
street  car  on  the  Folsoni  and 
.1  Howard  Street  lines  in  San  Fran- 
cisco has  caused  us  to  make  in- 
quiry about  the  use  of  this  type 
of  car  in  other  cities  tnroughout 
the     United    States. 

The  one-man  car  is  a  safety 
feature  of  modern  city  life.  It  is 
popular  in  every  city  in  which 
the  cars  have  been  used.  The  pub- 
lic like  the  safety  features  and 
find  them  just  as  fast  m  traffic 
as  the  two  man  cars.  The  one- 
man  car  permiLs  the  company  to 
operate  more  cars  than  if  two 
men  are  employed.  You  need  not 
wait   so   long   for   a  car. 

Every  city  In  the  United  States 
with  3904)0  population  or  more, 
except  San  Franclsoo  has  the 
one-man  cars  in  service.  Some  of 
these  citlej!  are  as  follows;  New 
York.  Chicago.  PitUburgh.  Bos- 
ton. Philadelphia.  DerUlt,  Cleve- 
land, St  lAHiin.  Baltimore.  Mil- 
waukee. Buffalo.  Washington.  D. 
C,  Minneapolis,  Cincinnati,  New- 
ark, N.  J.,  Kansas  City,  Seattle, 
Indianapolis,  Rochester,  Jersey 
City,  Louisville,  Portland,  Ore.. 
Houston,  Toledo,  Columbus,  Den- 
ver, St.  Paul,  Atlanta,  BUrmiog- 
ham,  Akron,  Memphis  and  Pro- 
vidence, R.I  Much  nearer  home, 
we  find  the  one-man  cars  op- 
erated exclusively  in  Oakland 
Also  in  Sacramento,  Ixis  Angelei< 
and  San  Diego,  we  find  thcni  In 
use  Ti>cy  ran  be  operated  a.- 
safely  as  a  truck,  n  motor  eoaeh. 
auto  stage,  bus  or  even  an  auto- 
mobile. San  Francisco  have  one- 
man  buses  on  both  the  Munioipal 
and  the  Market  btrset  Railway 
lines,  nnd  there  i.s  no  thou.;fat  of 
adSing  the  second  man  to  increase 
the   safely   of   these    cars. 

The  new  cars  operated  oa  the 
Folsom  an  Howard  Streets  lipc: 
have  all  of  the  now  .safety  fea- 
tures. They  have  been  proven  the 
best  in  the  other  ciUcb  namt>d 
above.  One-moii  cars  a-'c  no  long- 
er an  experiment.  They  are  nee  - 
essory  to  give  tUe  people  service 
they  ore  entitled  to.  They  are 
safe  and  reduce  accidents  and

Week  of  April  10,  103S 


nt  PfTTSBURG  COURIER  JOINS  HEARST 


Continued  from  page  1 
Apropos  the  Scottsboro  Decision:  **The  opinion  of  the 
CXHirt  should  he  aorepted  as  proof  that  the  <-ourt» 
4ff  tUk  country  are  fearieKH,  c-oura|;eoas  and  fair.  .  .  .  if 
9|p»  rent  of  the  country  will  let  Aiatiama  go  into  serious 
,i|DffereQoe  with  itself  on  thLs  Scottslxiro  matter,  we  ven- 
^Slfen  the  assertion  tliat  the  ScottslMro  case  nill  tiave  not 
tried  in  vain.  .  .  .  Let  us  all  return  to  a  quiet  and 
er  IntrwsiMH^Uon." 
■  '■  Two  centuries  ago,  Uncle  Tom's  grandfather  said  the 
nine  thing  in  more  picturesque  language:  "Hush,  pore 
talack  boy,  doan  you  crj'.  Yo-all'll  git  justice  by-and-by." 

Apropos  cf  the  Harlem  riot:  "Negroes  will  have  to  go 
•bout  this  employment  problem  another  way. . . .  We  must 
learn  to  panish  our  enemies  and  reward  our  friends  quietly 
and  without  ballyhoo  or  \iolence." 

,The  Courier  lies;  see  story  on  Harlem,  page  one  of 
this  issue.  But  even  if  the  riot  did  not  accomplish  any- 
thing, nearly  twenty  centuries  ago,  the  world's  starving  mil- 
lions were  told:  "Blessed  are  the  meek,  for  they  shall  in- 
herit the  earth." 

Apropos  of  the  Te.xas  Vote  decision :  "If  the  Democrats 
can  organize  a  party  and  define  the  qualifications  of  its 
members,  the  Negroes  are  not  prevented  from  doing  the 
very  same  thing." 

In  other  words,  we  may  now  hopefully  look  forward 
to  the  great  day  when  fifteen  million  Negro  Americans 
form  a  black  bloc  and  legally  wrest  control  of  the  govern- 
ment from  ninety-five  million  other  Americans. 

If  W.  R.  Hearst  should  express  these  opinions,  no  Ne- 
gro American  would  be  surprised.  But  from  a  representa- 
tive of  the  Negro  press  such  views  are  incredible. 

The  Spokesman  had  expected  Mr.  Vann,  m  exchange 
for  his  New  Deal  appointment,  to  support  the  Administra- 
tion. We  were  quite  unprepared  for  this  recent  boot-licking 
betrayal  of  the  Negro  people.

DIVINE'S   FOIXOWERS 

COLORADO  SPRINGS.  Colo  - 
Declaring  that  they  would-  have 
no  "black  and  tan"  JoInU  in  their 
town,  white  residents  of  Ivywild. 
a  auburb,  staged  a  mass  demon- 
stration In  front  of  a  newly  Sign- 
ed church  which  hnuse.s  one  of  the 
latest  congregations  of  followers 
of  Major  J.  "Father"  Divine,  on 
Thursday  night,  and  threatened  all 
sorts  of  violence  If  the  cuH  at- 
tempted to  remain  there.  A  crowd 
of  some  280  residents  mOAsed 
abmit  the  building  and  an  out- 
break of  violence  was  barely 
averted  through  the  efforts  of 
Sheriff  !;am  Deal  and  his  depu- 
ties 

It  Is  n  regular  part  of  Divine's 
"Kingdom"  Ylans  to  maintain  res- 
taurants and  lodgings  nnd  Ivywild

CROWDS  AHEND  MIL 
LEAGUE  OPENER  AT 
SAN  PABLO  PARK 


With  II  crowd  estimated  close 
to  6001)  by  sports  wi'iters  from 
dally  papers,  the  Berkeley  Inter- 
natlon;il  Ix-aguc  opened  its  Eighth 
season  :tt  Sun  Pablo  Park  Sunday 
afternoon.  Th*  loop,  foi'merly  the 
Berkeley  Colored  League,  adopted 
Its  new  name  When  u  white  and 
Chinese  team  was  tokeh  Into  the 
fold.  Such  a  move.  Iasti|^ted  by 
the  organizer  and  president  of 
the  organization.  Byron  "Speed" 
Rcilly.  hiis  proVrfjl  to  be  very  pop- 
ular with  tito  fans  and  from  the 
rabid  rooting  by  the  team's  fol- 
lowers Sunday,  showed  that  Inter- 
est in  the  circuit  has  doubled. 
Impressive  Ceremonies 

The  opening  ceremonies  were 
just  about  the  most  Impressive 
ever  staged  by  the  league,  follow- 
iDi  two  exbfbition  Sanies  between 
the  Grays,  Wa  Sungs  and  Athen 
riilks.  Although  ransl6  of  all  varie- 
ties .went  floating  over  the  air 
Via  broadcasting  aystem,  when 
the  Berkeley  St.  Johns  Band 
struck  up  a  lively  march  for  the 
parade,  tho  fans  dashed  for  the 
side  line  wires. 

Around  the  field  the  parade 
went,  led  by  Marshall  8&m  Pierce. 
After  llniug  across  the  infield  of 
the  diamond,  an  Oriental  act  was 
presented  by  members  of  the  Wa 
Supg  Chinese  team  amidst  the 
flash  of  fire  crockers.  The  act, 
was  formed  around  one  of  the 
famous  Chinese  Dragons  with  a 
huge  head,  from  under  which 
could  be  seen  legs  of  the  Wa 
Sung  memtiers  as  they  danced  to 
and  fro  from  the  evil  fire. 

Mayor  Welconieo  Throng 

Atty.  Walter  Gordon  filled  the 
Master  of  Ceremonies  post  and 
the  first  speaker  of  Mayor  Ed- 
ward A.  Ament.  who  gave  the 
Weli;ome  address.  He  was  fol- 
lowed by  the  League's  president. 
Charles  Davis,  recreation  superin- 
tendent: Oakland  City  Manager 
Jack  llassler:  'Edward  Faucett: 
Abe  Rose;  Berkeley  City  Manager 
Holiis  Thompson  and  members  of 
the  Berkeley  City  Council.  One  of 
the  most  Impressive  of  the  day, 
was  the  one  minute  of  silence  in 
memory  of  Oweh  "Nuby"  Drom- 
g«ole,  late  ardent  booster  donor 
of  the  Leading  Batsman  Trophy. 
As  Vice  President  Perk  Woodlyn 
asked  for  bowed  beads  and  si- 
letice,  Edward  Davis,  a  relative, 
placed  h  wreath  in  a  vacant  chair 
which  rested  the  spirit  of  the 
league's  friend,  who  was  a  great 
sport  and  was  always  ready  to  as- 
sist the  loop. 

Jack    Hurls,    nollls    lilts 

With  the  ceremonies  over,  the 
field  was  cleared  and  Jack  Hass- 
I4t  took  the  mound,  with  the 
Berkeley  City  Manager  at  bat,  and 
Edward  Faucett  behind  the  plate 
with  mask  and  protector.  It  was 
the  first  time  that  the  two  City 
l^adem  had  taken  part  In  any 
such  ceremonies  and  as  Hassler 
warmed  up,  Thompson  doffed  his 
(dot  to  prepare  for  his  work  at 
thi  platter.  Jack  wound  up  and 
In  it  came— and  out  it  went.  The 
Berkeley  Manager  connected  for 
a  long  clean  hit  to  left  field  and 
dashed  for  first  with  all  the  fans 
applauding  loudly. 

The  gents  shook  hands  and 
Hassler  iold  Thompson,  "If  I  had 
known  you  were  so  good,  I  would 
have  throkrii  Wy  curve."  Thomp- 
son also  informed  the  league 
prexy  that  Councilman  Martin's 
promise  of  the  City  Government 
to  assLst  io  putting  new  stands 
fur  the  League's  diamond  was  not 
an  idl*  jest.  The  field  was  then 
turned  over  to  the  Pelicans  and 
Al  Cigars,  who  prepared  for  the 
opening  gam*.

Robert  Gruy.son  fur  many  years 
a  lounge  car  man.  on  the  Cascade 
Limited,  departed  this  life  nnd 
was  burled  from  the  North  Oak- 
land Baptist  Church. 

Mr.  Grayson  had  a  striling  per- 
sonality and  was  very  congenial 
with  passengers  und  meml>ers  of 
the  crew.  He  will  be  long  remem- 
bered   for    these    virtues. 

Hiram  Johnson  Is  convalescing 
in  the  S.  1*.  Hospital.  His  condi- 
tion is  one  of  .steady  improvement, 
and  it  is  pleasing  to  state  at  this 
time  that  we  e:<pcct  Mi.  John.son 
to  be  discharged  from  the  hospi-  I 
tal   in   the   early   future. 

P.  D.   Austin  had   an  accident   in  ! 
the   Commissary   kitchen    in    which  [ 
lie    received    internal    an    dexternal 
Injitries.   He  is  convalescing  at   his 
home. 

Napoleon  Doak  whose  presence 
has  very  much  been  mis.sed.  has 
been  confined  to  tils  home  in  San 
Francisco,  due  to  sickness.  It  is 
pleasing  to  say  that  Bro.  Doak 
is  much  improved,  and  in  the 
early  future  we  can  expect  to  see 
Bro.  Doak  with  his  baoad  smile 
and  sterhng  personality,  among 
hia  worthy   constituents.

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gus  Jnck.son  un

leom  that  the  bride  did  not  order 
it.  Inspection  reveals  that  al- 
though wrapped  in  approved  form

that  the  perfume  and  powder  It

Orange  County.  through  its 
Board  of  Supervisors  has  sought 
transference  of  the  rich  tideland 
oil  area  of  Huntington  from  the 
Slate,  which  now  controls  the 
property.  Controversy  over  the 
property  has  raged  for  years,  but 
no  active  effort  to  give  tbe  rights 
to  the  county  bad  been  made. 

Information  states  that  the 
Orange  Supervisors  have  already 
signed  a  contract  with  the  famous 
Signal  Hill  Oil  Crowd  to  sub- 
lease the  oil  lands  in  event  that 
they  are  successful  ,  in  Jiaving

in  smoothing  the  way  for  the 
deal  and  the  skids  have  been 
well  greased.  Recently  the  Stan- 
dard Oil  Company  promised  to 
pay  the  state  (800,000  for  back 
royalties  and  drainage  from  the 
tidelands  prior  to  the  rejection  of 
the  original  drilling  permits.  In 
the  future  more  royalty  checks 
win  be  due  from  other  operators 
and  tbe  State  will  be  reimbursed 
for  its  stolen  resources.  All  in 
all,  the  Huntington  Beach  stir  is 
good  subject   for   months   to   come. 

PORTER   FIGHT   DOPE 

Senator  Stow  fought  the  Porter 
appointment  not  so  much  because 
of  the  Ex-Mayor's  intolerance,  but 
because  Mcrriam  had  refused  to 
appoint  Herb  Weyler,  Ex-Quinn 
satelite  and  a  member  of  the 
powerful  State  Highway  Commis- 
sion. On  the  other  hand  Senators 
Pierovlch  and  Swing  displayed 
their  grasp  of  practical  politics 
when  they  fought  to  have  Porter 
confirmed.  The  reward  consisted 
of  Swing's  obtaining  the  luscious 
Personnel  Board  appointment  for 
a  prominent  San  Bernardino  law- 
yer whose  name  will  be  disclosed 
this  week.  Swing  hails  from  the 
same  county. 

Popular  Andy  Pierovlch  who  is 
a  former  St.  Mary's  football  play- 
er, was  able  to  appoint  a  consti- 
tuent to  the  State  Embalming 
Board.  Experience  carrying  the 
ball  stood  Andy   in   good  stead. 

NAME   SOUGHT   CHANGED 

The    suggestion    has    been    made 
that   the    tSate    recognize    the    per- 
manency  of  the   present  Emergen- 
cy Relief  situation   and  change  Its 
name.    California    Relief    Commis- 
sion   would    be    tbe    new    title    and 
Its   object    would    be    to   carry   out 
present     relief     programs,     making 
enough  changes  to  provide  for  the 
gradual    elimination    of    the    relief 
problems   over   a   period    of    years. 
Chiselers    and    those    that    want 
charity   but   will    not    accept    work 
when   It   is   offered   them,   are   due 
for   a  Jolt.   Plans   for   a   state-wide 
employment      service      where      all 
able-bodied     men    and     women     on 
the   relief   rolls   will    be    registered, 
have   been   made.   If   a   man   called 
to    accept    employment    refuses    to 
work    he    will     be    dropped     from 
the.   rolls    and    his    relief    checks 
will   be   discontinued.   ...   It   may 
^ove  the  solution  to  tbe  problem. 


with      the      avowed      purpose      of  j  clsco   visited   at    the    home    of   Mr. 
reaching  a  conference  on  proposed  (and   Mrs.    P.   J.    Williams   on   Sun- 
day. 


tax   bilU 

In  the  seven  weeks  that  the  leg- 
islature has  been  in  session,  only 
16  bills  have  been  passed  by  the 
two  houses.  Unless  the  budget  is 
balanced  in  the  next  month  and 
means  found  to  provide  necessary 
revenue,  many  of  the  State  de- 
partment will  find  themselves 
obliged  to  halt  operations  after 
June    30. 

Appropriati<m  measures  have 
been  held  off  is  well.  No  self-re- 
specting legislator  dares  go  home 
until  he  has  obtained  some  share 
of  the  tax  monies  for  his  district, 
so  something  will  be  accomplished 
soon  I!  At  the  advice  of  Senator 
Rich  the  conference  committee 
plan  was  chosen  as  the  most  ade- 
quate way  of  solving  the  vexing 
task. 

Apparently  the  sales  tax  will  be 
amended  in  order  to  exclude  the 
taxation  of  foodstuffs,  if  the  atti- 
tude of  the  Assembly  In  debate  on 
the  bill  this  week  is  evidence.  As 
a  result  the  State  will  lose  $20,- 
000,000  a  year  in  revenue,  that  be- 
ing the  amount  paid  In  taxes  on 
food. 

LOS   ANGELES 
EXPOSITION   SOUGHT 

Assemblyman  okayed  a  bond  Is- 
sue of  t5,000,000  for  the  City  of 
Los  Angeles.  The  money  will  be 
spent  to  erect  an  Exposition  In 
the  heart  of  Los  Angeles  in  1937 
to  celebrate  the  completion  of 
Boulder  Dam  and  the  Metropoli- 
tan   water   district   project.

SLAVE  LAWS  STILL 
USED  IN  GEORGIA 


'^rn^llC    SLASHRS     INTianrK 

A  Chinese  boy  about  10  years 
OM  reeenled  the  fact  that  a  while 
boy.  Itenry  Rubi.  2262  Oenry  sl  . 
l»a<r  started  business  selling  pa- 
per* 00  hit  corner  at  Sacramento 
knd  PUImore  st.  He  showed  his 
resentisent  by  stabbing  Henry  in 
the  back  with  a  knife  The  police 
•te  atlll  Marching  ,for  1  ho  Cliinesc 
boy  while  Henry  has  recovered 
and  Moved  to  another  corner  to 
veil. kit  papers.  ,  , 


In  direct  line  of  descent  from 
:lic  cruel  slave  laws  of  the  earli- 
'-st  colonial  days,  is  the  statute 
\chich  stands  today  upon  the 
hooks  of  the  state  of  Georgia,  and 
iindir  which  Angelo  Herndoii,  22- 
veai  old  organiier.  faces  a  sen- 
tenci-  of  18  to  20  years  on  the 
,  hain-gnng. 

Thus,  in  colonial  New  York, 
statutes  were  passed  in  1708  and 
1712  to  prevent  and  punish  slave 
,n-ii:  lections  and  conspiracies, 
rile  fear  of  such  in.surrectlons  in 
1712  an.l  1711  led.  in  New  York 
City,  to  the  wholesale  execution 
of  Negioes  and  of  their  white 
friends,  and  Involved  the  most 
cruel    punishments. 

On  May  19.  1804.  the  Georgia 
legislature  passed  a  .statute  which 
may  be  considered  tlie  direct  pre- 
.lecessor  of  the  present  Georgia 
insurrection  law.  Any  Incitement 
to  Insurrection  of  s'.aves  was  a 
felony  punishable  by  death  with- 
out benefit  of  clergy.  The  law 
stated: 

In  almost  every  slave  holding 
date  of  the  union  it  was  a  crime 
to  teach  a  slave  to  read  and 
write.  Yet  tbouaands  learned,  in 
small,  secret  groups  held  under 
the  guise  of  prayer-meetings,  bar- 
becue feaats  and  fishing  expedi 
tlons. 

t.  waa  on  the  b*sis  of  this  Ia« 
that  Angelo  Herndon  was  Indict 
ed,  tried  ^•nd  sentenced  becaus 
'he  Jury  recommended  "mercy!" 
to  serve  18  to  20  years  on  th. 
chain-gang.       <*, 

.  11.    I'iis^i.  of  Ihs  s'ote  of  fleoi 
gin   to   keep    this   slave   law    on   it 
statute    books    is   being    challenged 
before   the   Supreme   Court   of   the 
ITnlted    Statai     by    attorneys     for 
the    International    Labor    Defense 
who  are   arguing   the  case   of   Ar. 
gelo   Herndon,        i:

According  to  Al  Monroe,  Chica- 
go sports  scribe,  a  story  is  slip- 
ping around.  State  street,  which 
says  Louis  will  never  get  a  title 
match  as  long  as  he  is  managed 
by  John  Roxborough  and  Julian 
Black. 

Not  that  there  is  any  mark 
against  the  classy  pair  of  mentors, 
out  the  rumor  has  It  that  the 
ofays  h;ive  put  their  foot  down 
on  Louis  getting  the  highest  box- 
ing honor  with  Negro  managers 
No  Worry  There 

It  seems  as  though  they  (peck- 
ies)    have   come    to    the   conclusion 


AL  CIGARS  TAKE      lATHEN  ELKS  CLASH 
LEAGOELEADBY      WITH  GRAYS  IN  1ST 
BEATING  WA  SUNOS    GAME  OF  THE  YEAR 


The  Al  Cigars  took  undisputed 
U'iiJ  in  the  Berkeley  International 
Li-ague  last  Sunday,  when  they 
wun  their  second  straight  game 
b.v  defeating  the  Wa  Sung  C'hi- 
lU'Sf  team  in  a  close  3  to  2  com- 
bat. 

U  was  a  thrilling  battle  from 
<l:irl  to  finish  and  it  was  any- 
body's ball  game  until  Dunn  made 
the  last  out  for  the  Wa  Sungs 

W.  Valente  and  Eddie  Hing 
hooked  up  in  a  chucker'.s  duel, 
Jilt  both  had  to  be  replaced  be- 
fore the  tilt  came  to  a  close. 
Bubros,  who  hurled  the  Cigurs  to 
.1  win  over  the  Pelicans,  cnme  to 
Valente's  rescue  In  the  8th  with 
jne  run  In,  none  out  and  two 
men  on.  It  was  a  tough  spot  for 
uny  moundsmen  to  be.  but  he  cut 
(he  Chinese  lad's  rally  by  fanning 
the  next  two  batters  and  making 
the  third  hitter  pop  up.  Ralph 
Lieu  took  over  the  chucking  for 
that   they   cannot   keep   Louis   from  '"^*''    '"    "'^    "'n^'''    "ut    the

Two  fast  games  are  on  tap  for 
Sunday,  the  Pelicans  and  Wa 
Sungs  clashing  in  the  noon  tilt, 
while  the  Athen  Elks  play  their 
first  official  game  of  the  season 
against    the   Orayi^ 

The  early  battle  should  be  an- 
other nip  'n  tuck  affair,  with  the 
classy  Chinese  lads  matching  their 
speed  against  the  Pels  heavy  hit- 
ting. Picking  a  winner  here  is  as 
easy  as  telling  when  the  next  war 
will    be. 

For  the  feature  game,  the  Grays 
will  be  out  to  crash  the  win  col- 
umn at  the  expense  of  the  young 
Athen  fclk  boys,  consisting  nwstly 
of  former  Pullman  players.  With 
their  manager  Ed  Smith  doing 
the  chucking,  the  young  "Bills" 
are  confident  they  will  rest  at 
the  top  of  the  circuit  standings 
after    Sunday.

That  lovely  new  dress. 
That  hat.  as  light  as 
moonbeams.  How  we 
all  work  and  plan  to 
make  our  Easter  out- 
fit the  most  beautftui 
-Tcation  to  be  accn  on 
that  BO  important  Sun- 
day of  Spring.  And  >t;t 
it's  all  a  frame! 

The  important  thing 
is  you  yourself.  Your 
hair.  Your  face.  The  hat 
that  frames  a  lovely 
face  is  a  beautiful  hat 
indeed.  The  dren  which 
complements  gUtmorous 
hair  and  smooth,  lovrly 
skin  will  be  the  center 
of  admiring  eyes. 

This  magic  "aptjcal  is 
within  the  reach  of  ev- 
eryone. Simply  i^one 
for  an  appofntment!

LIQUOR    CONTROL    PLANS 

Ray  Riley,  State  Comptroller, 
declared  that  a  new  policy  of  li- 
quor supervision  will  eliminate 
many  of  the  illegitimate  liquor 
retailers  who  are  operating  in 
California.  Federal  authorities 
state  that  there  are  between  7 
and  8,000  places  selling  hard  li- 
quor without  adequate  licenses  or 
supervision.  This  week  the  Board 
of  Bqualiiation  authorized  a  com- 
bination in8i>ection  of  all  stores 
in  the  state.  The  new  ruling  re- 
quires that  a  federal  man  and  a 
state  man  jointly  Inspect  the  spots 
in  their  districts  and  arrest  all 
offenders  who  sre  operating  with- 
out permission.  It  is  estimated 
that .  the  state  is  losing  nearly 
ta.OOO.OOO  a  year  in  license  fees 
'from  these  bootleg  joints.  It  U 
^also  expected  that  a  great  num- 
ber of  the  bootleg  liquor  dealers 
will  be  forced  out  of  business  and

the    whole    liquor    picture. 

Assemblyman  Boyle'  stated  yes- 
terday that  he  proposes  to  intro- 
duce a  bill  providing  for  the  sale 
of  liquor  by  state  owned  and  op- 
erated stores.  Patterned  after  the 
Washington  Retail  Act  the  statf 
would  give  present  dealers  two 
years  in  which  to  close  out  their 
business.  At  the  end  of  that  time 
they  would  be  comiiensated  for 
their  remaining  stock  and  equip- 
ment. With  the  appointment  of  a 
liquor  Czar  the  state  would  then 
maintain  stores  segregated  ac- 
cording to  population.  It  Is  estt> 
mated  that  the  revenue  from 
these  stores,  which  would  operate 
on  a  2S  per  cent  profit  basis, 
would  net  the  state  }2S,000,000  a 
year.  Boyle  says,  "It  is  imperativ^ 
that  we  Increase  the  liquor  stan. 
dards  of  the  state  and  my  plan 
would  eliminate  the  sale  or  pro- 
duction of  inferior  liquors  and  at 
the  same  time  place  the  sale  of 
such   Items   above   reproach." 

Opponents  of  the  plan  feel  that 
the  bill  would  be  a  step  In  the 
direction  of  state  domination  of 
all  business.

CONSOLJDATION  GAINS 

Assemblyman  Frank  J.  Waters 
this  week  gained  the  passage  of 
bis  bill  to  enable  pearby  and 
overlapping  school  dlAricts  ti  e(. 
feet  consolidation.  The  bill  pro- 
vides that  grammar  and  high 
school  districts  may  be  served  by 
the  same  board  of  trustees  if  a 
majority  of  the  voteT#  desire  to 
effect  such   a  consolidation. 

After  considerable  fight  two 
bills  were  passed  out  Of  commit- 
tee which  require  that  oil  and 
gas  pipe  lines  in  California  be 
classed  as  common  carriers.  As 
such  they  would  be  subject  to  rat* 
standards  and  licenses.  Independ- 
ent oil  producers  favor  such  a 
step  because  it  will  «ive  them  an 
opportunity  to  find  a  cheaper 
mode  of  transportation  for  their 
products.  However,  the  major  oil 
companies  are  making  a  definite 
stand  to  have  the  bh'is  killed  on 
the  floor  of  the  House. 
GROSS   TRANSACTION   TAX 

Day  by  day  assemblyman  La- 
tham's 1  per  cent  gross  tranaac- 
tloDs  tax  is  gaining  strength.  La- 
tham, who  halls  from  Alhambra, 
believes  that  his  tax  would  bring 
(200.000,000  a  year  into  the  coffer* 
of  the  state.  It  would  be  a  multi- 
ple tax.  that  la,  several  people 
would  be  forced  to  pay  a  tax  on  au 
commodity  before  It  reached  Hs 
final  purchaser.  Banks  and  other 
groups  whoBt!  quick  turnover  of 
business  would  be  affected  by  the 
measure,  are  bitterly  opposed  tot 
It.  Proponents  of  the  budget,  nev- 
ertheless, point  out  the  fact  that 
it  la  the  only  sensible  comproraiae 
that  has  been  suggested  to  dis- 
place the  many  nuisance  taxes 
that  Mrrriam  declared  necessary 
to   balance   his    budget. 

Speaker  Ted  Craig  states  that 
the  legislature  will  probably  ad- 
journ about  May  2S.  That  would 
be  three  days  following  the  dis- 
continuance of  the  legislator's  sal- 
ary checks.  Every  member  of  the 
legislature  la  paid  $12.00  a  day 
during  each  regular  session  until 
the  sum  of  |1IOO  has  been  dl«- 
bursed,  after  which  time  there 
are  no  provisions  in  the  constitu- 
tion for  pay  checks.  Craig  warned 
the  members  that  to  date  they 
had  passed  only  one  or  two  coa- 
structive  meosurea  and  that  He 
would  begin  to  crack  the  whip 
unless  Immediate  steps  were  taken 
to   push   tax   legislation.

THE.  SPOKESMAN 


Week  of  May  10,  1938 


Spokesman 
Ducks  the  Sheriff 


EDITORIAL 

. ."  THE  FATAL  SATURDAY  came  and 
ytet,  leaving  The  Spokesman  to  continue 
f^  cnwading  wKy  no  sadder  but  much 
f^mr  than  before. 

Hiroe  hundred  and  fifty  persons  did 
nak  respond.  But  of  the  forty-six  who  did 
Bi^eve  this  newspaper  was  performing  a 
flfloessary  mission  in  the  community,  six 
ppaseBsed  the  rare  and  happy  conibiaation 
of  ftith  and  cash.  Because  of  them,  you 
may  continue  getting  your  Spokesman. 

Moreover,  because  of  them  you  may 
get  a  larger,  better  newspaper.  They  have 
i^ndertaken  the  difficult  task  of  asking 
for  and  getting  your  support.  During  the 
next  few  weeks,  you  will  be  approached 
and  asked  to  subscribe,  to  buy  advertise- 
ments, to  telephone  in  news,  to  write,  to 
offer  criticism  and  suggestions,  or  even  to 
approach  your  friends  in  the  interest  of 
the  oe«'spaper. 

With  this  new  departure.  The  Spokes- 
man has  definitely  passed  out  of  the  class 
of  a  petty  business  enterprise,  operated 
with  a  view  to  earning  profits  on  its  in- 
vestment. Now,  more  than  ever  before, 
this  newspaper  will  be  a  crusading  organ, 
an  instrument  by  means  of  which  Califor- 
nia Negro  Americans  are  to  be  informed 
of  significant  local  and  national  happen- 
ings. 

The  reorganization  plan  also  calls  for 
a  more  unswerving  committment  to  our 
published  slogan:  "to  set  forth  ideas  and 
promote  programs  of  social  reconstruc- 
tion." 

During  the  earlier  stages  of  its  devel- 
opment. The  Spokesman  had  an  eye  for 
circulation-building  features.  It  published 
a  scandal  column,  astrological  buncombe. 
Father  Divine's  opium-for-the-people,  and 
stories  having  no  other  purpose  than  that 
of  «itertaining.  These  things  are  part  of 
the  past. 

A  clearer,  fresher  vision  dictates  The 
Spokesman's  future  methods:  The  majori- 
ty of  onr  people  still  live  on  the  ley(J  of 
Igaoranoe,  depravity,  and  poverty.  By  diie 
of  merit  or  foHjine,  some  few  have  emerg- 
ed to  position^  of  relative  securtty-  But 
the  nriiHviis  of  fanner^  domestic  servants, 
aaA  eommon  laborers  who  make  dp  the 
Httffo    American    people    are    still    con- 
Anm^  jtQ  e:^oitatk>a  and  misery.  The)- 
•re  ••  horriUy   raslaved   today   as   they 
wen  in  1835.  And  their  condition  is  stead- 
ily growing  worse. 

A  ngime  of  regiltaentaUon  in  tlie  "tai- 
tatmt  of  Big  Business  faces  America;  'It 
Ua  afaready  come  to  Germany,  and  ItUy. 
See  wliat  it  did  to  racial  imnorities  in 
QefiiMiiy!  See  wliat  it  did  to  conurion  1a- 
bovei*  !■  Italy!  Just  that,  and  more,  Will 
i*-do  to  Negroes  in  America.  Already,  un- 
4it  tke  NRA,  it  has  regimented  some  few 
iMmt-licks  to  perpetuate  the  Negro's 
role  of  Forgotten  Man,  of  a 
of  wood  and  drawer  of  water."  It 
ins  nteed  the  Negro's  cost  of  living, 
.J  kli  wages,  throwA  him  into  bread- 

tatewifled  discriniination,  and  given 

goveramental  sanction  to  segregation. 

In  this  demoralizing  crisis,  the  duty  of 
a^  new^wper  for  Negro  Americans  is 
(^iour;  (1)  It  must  educate  its  people  to  an 
awnareneas  of  their  position  and  in  the 
knowledge  of  what  to  do  about  it;  (2)  it 
muit  expose  every  attempt  made  by  Ne- 
gfoea  themselves  or  by  their  enemies  to 
abuse,  humiliate,,  mislead,  betray,  exiloit, 
segregate  or  otherwise  injure  them. 

In  order  to  execute  these  tasks,   the 
uewspaiMir  must  be    (1)    courageous,    (2) 
truthful,  and  (3)  fmancially  independent. 
That  The  Spokesman  wiU  teU  the  truth 
UriifBi  it  gets  the  facts,   that  it  has   the 
*gat>"  to  interpret  theae  facts  m  the  Ught

aled  even  by  its  enemies.  To  provide  the 
ttilni  In^wrtant  requisite  for  serving   iU

Qniy'a  UMOigeait  was  never

in   the   buainees   world 
t9  fjrtweea  his  honest  oon- 


IliB  last  Monday  night 
■aw  a«Kl  heard  a 


new  and  strange  E.  B.  Gray.  The  'cloee- 
mouthed,  tight  fisted  business  man  sud- 
denly became  a  fluent,  bold  spokesman 
for  his  people.  Eugene  Blake  Gray  told 
political  candidates  they  were  demagogues, 
told  Negro  apologists  for  these  candidates 
they  were  bootlicks,  told  his  audience 
they  needed  a  far  more  searching  reor- 
f^anization  of  society  than  was  possible 
through  the  election  of  stupid,  dishonest 
officials. 

A  transformation  indeed!  Yet,  the 
change  in  Mr.  Gray's  attitude  is  one  which 
all  other  intelligent  Negroes,  soon  or  late, 
will  have  to  make.  The  conviction  that 
Negro  Americans  have  nothing  to  lose, 
everything  to  gain  by  a  change  of  the 
status  quo  is  a  conviction  which  the  force 
of  circumstances  will  compel  us  all  to  ac- 
cept Events  are  moving  at  a  tremendous 
pace,  unswervingly  in  one  direction:  TO- 
WARD THE  PERPETUATION  OF  AF- 
RAMERICANS  AS  AN  EXPLOITED, 
PERSECUTED,  SEPARATE  CLASS.  No 
mere  constitutional  amendment,  legal  re- 
form, or  "better  racial  understanding" 
can  stay  this  movement. 

Mr.  Gray  is  not  alone  in  his  convic- 
tions. Most  of  us  are  with  him*  The  dif- 
ference is  that  he  is  disgusted  with  the 
old  remedies  that  are  offered  to  patch  up 
the  situation.  We  still  believe  in  them.  We 
think  that  our  vote  for  a  Democrat  or  a 
Republican  will  change  the  entire  status 
of  our  group.  We  forget  that  there  is  no 
difference  between  the  two  parties  as  far 
as  our  status  is  concerned.  Both  are  de- 
termined to  keep  on  hand  a  huge  group  of 
miserable,  starving,  cheap  laborers.  Both 
will  use  race  prejudice,  discrimination, 
segregation,  and  lynching  to  maintain  the 
status  of .  this  group.  Under  the  present 
bi-party  system,  the  ballot  never  can  be 
a  soluticm  to  the  Negro's  problem. 

A  thousand  congratulations,  Mr.  Gray! 

The  Spokesman  is  with  you,  and  if  we  are 

not  mistaken,  most  of  our  people  will  soon 

have  to  be.

SCOTTSBORO  BOYS  IN  TllE  BAY 
CfnES 


DERTHE 
DOME 


P/Ac 


I).  S.  GOVERNMENT  REPORT  SHOWS  MISERY 
OF  WORKERS  IN  HUGE  TORAGCO INOUSTRIES 


ALABAMA'S  SCOTTSBORO  BOYS 
are  symbolic.  Hundreds  of  their  proto- 
types abound  in  our  midst— wretched,  ig- 
norant, dejected  young  men  and  women, 
victims  of  hate  and  exploitation. 

True  enough,  6ur  own  Scottsboro  boys 
and  girls  are  not  in  Kilby  prison  under 
sentence  of  death.  But  the  walls  that  en- 
close their  spirit  are  as  strong  is  those  of 
Kilby.  The  cbnditiofls  which  create  Scotts- 
borb  boys  are  as  active  here  as  Ih  Ala- 
bama. 

The  Nine  Alabama  Scottsboro  Boys 
may  die  on  the  gfallows  or  rot  in  jail.  But 
there  will  be  other  Scottsboro  boys  so 
long  as  the  conditions  which  breed  them 
exist. 

What  are  the  young  men  and  women 
of  the  Bay  Cities  going  to  do  about  these 
conditions?  About  the  walls  of  despair 
that  paralyze  their  energies  and  will? 

At  a  meeting  of  the  American  Youth 
Congress,  in  San  F«ancisco  last  Sunday 
night,  delegates  from  many  youth  or- 
ganizations accepted  recommendations  of 
a  National  Minorities  Commission  seeking 
to  abolish  the  conditions  which  breed 
Scottsboro  boys.  The  Commission  recom- 
mended definite,  clear-cut  action  to  be 
taken  against  discriminatoin  and  segre- 
gation in  every  phase  of  American  life. 

At  the  Congress  were  hundreds  of 
young  men  and  women,  filled  with  a  new 
vision  and  determination.  No  equivocal, 
timorous  playing  with  pretty  words 
sapped  away  the  precious  time.  These 
young  people  meant  business.  'What  are 
we  going  to  DO  about  the  Negro  youth?" 
"What  are  we  going  to  DO  about  discrim- 
ination and  segregation?"  These  were  the 
questions  they  bravely  sought  to  answer. 
And  they  did!  You  will  hear  a  great  deal 
more  of  this  Youth  Congress.   ^ 

But  among  those  hundreds  of  young 
people  resolved  to  create  4t  better  world, 
were  only  three  Negroes — two  young  men, 
one  young  woman! 

Why  did  not  more  young  Negroes  at- 
tend? 

The  reason  is  clear :  they  are  not  in- 
terested. Their  elders  have  demonstrated 
no  absorbing  interest  in  remedying  con- 
ditions; and  example  is  ever  a  better  ped- 
agog  than  precept.  Handkerchief-headed 
mothers  and  fathers,  spittle-licking  civic 
leaders,  pleasure-seeking  forty-year-old 
children — these  are  the  reasons  our  youth 
greaaes  its  hair,  decorates  its  body,  and 
spends  every  idle  moment  in  gin-guzzling 
and  Jau-worshipping. 

A  little  thought  will  reveal  that  the 
fieigfat  train  boarded  by  the  Scottsboro 
boys  and  the  dance  hall  crowded  by  our 
own  yoimg  men  and  women  are  going  to 
the  sanie  place.  Both  are  means  of  escape, 
of  running  aWay,  from  what  seems  to  be 
an  intolerable  situation.  Jazz,  liquor,  pool 
balls,  bridge  tables,  and  freight  traini

The  SUt«  Senate  began  asotbfr 
InvestiBation  iprce  when  it  aet  up 
a  committee  to  Investigate  the 
Civil  Service  setup  througjjput 
state  departments.  Rumors  have 
come  to  the  front  that  the  tfer- 
riam  administration  la  dlsreffrd- 
Ing  civil  service  in  its  quwt  to 
find  Jobs  to  reward  the  deservlltg 
faithful.  Thfl  committee  la  about 
evenly  divided  as  regards  those 
that  favor  and  those  that  disfa- 
vor Governor  Merriam  and  his 
tactics. 

Another  Senate  investigating 
committee  was  named  following 
the  resolution  submitted  by  Sena- 
tor Powers,  requesting  an  Immed- 
iate thorough  consideration  re- 
garding the  untimely  hanging  of 
Rush  Griffin,  slayer  of  a  Uni- 
versity of  Southern  California 
student.  A  delay  bad  been  granted 
Griffin,  but  officials  had  failed 
to  notify  the  warden  of  San  Quen- 
tin,  who  had  no  other  recourse 
than  to  hang  the  condemned  man. 
Senator  Powers  was  named 
chairman  of  the  committee  and 
Senators  Knowland  of  Oakland 
and  DifanI  of  RiversiiTe  will  as- 
sist him.  Walter  Gordon,  brilliant 
lawyer  will  act  as  attorney  for 
the  committee  and  Assemblyman 
Ous  Hawkins,  youthful  represen- 
taUve,  who  Is  the  only  Negro 
elected  to  office  west  of  Chicago, 
will  work  with  the  group  in  an 
ex-officio  capacity.  It  is  expected 
that  a  house  cleaning  of  negligent 
public  officials  will  folk>w  as  a 
result  of  this  Investigation,  which 
will  take  place  in  Los  Angelec 
this   week. 

Reliable  rumor  has  it  that  H. 
H.  "Ham"  Cotton,  old-tlaae  Demo- 
crat, who  organized  the  powerful 
American  Democracy  to  defeat 
Upton  Sinclair,  is  slated  to  be 
named  collector  of  internal  reve- 
nue. 

Senator  McAdoo's  recent  sudden 
recovery  from  what  was  feared  to 
be  a  serious  illness,  upset  plans 
which  would  have  completely 
changed  the  political  future  of 
California.  Had  McAdoo  failed  to 
recover  from  his  illness,  Oeorge 
J.  Hatfield  would  have  been  gov- 
ernor of  California  today  and  as 
Drew  Pearson  says,  "bald  beefy 
Frank  Merriam"  would  have  been 
junior    senator    from    California. 

If  certain  rumors  about  the 
McAdoo  -  Greenway  -  Dern  aviaUon 
phllanderings  are  true,  do  not  be 
surprised  to  see  the  ex-secretary 
of  war  and  former  presidential 
aspirant  present  his  resignation 
as  senator. 

Mooney  and  Billings  will  Have 
their  sentences  commuted  by  ex- 
ecutive order  of  tne  governor  In 
a  very  short  time— they  will  not 
be  granted  an  executive  pardon 
but  will  be  granted  their  freedom 
through  the  commutation  of  their 
prisoD    terms. 

Quotations  James  Breonan,  Saa 
Francisco  assemblyman  and  for-

Workers  write  tliat  hundreds 
of  them  have  been  laid  off  be- 
cause they  could  not  make  the 
required  $2.40  or  $2.50  a  day  even 
at  the  intense  speed-up,  because 
of  the  piece  rates  paid  by  the  to- 
bacco   companies. 

To  eliminate  all  but  the'fastest, 
workers  report  that  In  addlUon  to 
their  being  given  sntall  stems,  the 
bosses  have  set  the  scales  back 
and  weighed  them  to  keep  stem- 
mers  from  making  more  than  a 
certain    amount. 

Stems  are  put  on  llie  floor  and 
the  worker  'has  to  clean  them 
himself,  using  time  during  which 
be  should  be  produCTng  to  make 
the   rate. 

W^en  the  workers  fail  to  keep 
up  with  the  speed-up,  they  have 
to  re-apply  for  Jobs  and  visit  the 
company  doctor  who  sees  if  he 
can't  reclassify  them  as  old  or

Tuberculosis  Takes 

Toll  of  Floridans 


JACKSONVILLE.  Fla.,  May  4.- 
(CNA)  —  The  terrible  sufferings 
and  starvation  conditions  of  Flor- 
ida Negroes  are  reflected  in  the 
high  tuberculosis  death  rale,  ac- 
cording  to   many   here. 

Recently,  the  Tuberculosis  Asso- 
ciation issued  statistics.  It  report- 
ed that  in  one  county  the  Negro 
death  rate  was  17  times  as  high 
as  the  corresponding  figure  for 
the  whites. 

Washington  county  has  a  ratio 
of  16  Negro  deaths  to  one  white; 
seven  and  eight  were  cohnmon 
throughout   the  other   counties. 

The  Association  has  appealed  to

attempted  to  fight  the  passage  of 
a>-regulatory  loan  law,  claiming 
that  the  outrageous  charges  now 
b«ing  made  upon  the  public  by 
loan  sharks  were  better  than  any 
demanding  that  Mooney  and  Bill-  measure  which  would  limit  loan 
ings   be    freed.    (Sovernor   Merriam,  |  interest       charges.       Assemblymen 


by  this  one  stroke,  would  engage 
the  admiration  of  all  labor  groups, 
thereby  dispelling  uneasiness 
among  certain  divisions  of  the  A. 
F.  of  L. 

Movement  toward  the  creation 
of  a  State  Police  system  gained 
momentum  this  week  when  Ray- 
mond Halght,  defeated  Progress- 
ive candidate  for  Oevernor,  ap- 
peared before  the  Constitutional 
Amendments  Committee  and  spoke 
on  behalf  of  the  Latham  BUI. 
which  would  create  a  state-wide 
police    system.

Garibaldi.  Cronln.  Utt,  Corwin  and 
Riley,  perhaps  the  ablest  men  in 
the  Assembly,  were  authors  of  the 
measure,  which  will  drive  loan

HAMPTON  INSTITUTE,  Va., 
May  8.— In  Virginia  there  are 
4338  colored  midwives  and  these 
women  attend  29  per  cent  of  the 
maternity  cases.  One  of  the  im- 
portant problems  of  the  Virginia 
Department  of  HeallTi  is  the 
training  of  literate  colored  women 
between  the  ages  of  20  and  45,  to 
be   doctors'   helpers.

that  ho  had  no  complaint  to 
make    with    his    business   growth. 

He  attributed  his  success  to 
the  wide  assortment  of  stock  he 
carries,  and  to  the  fast  motorcy- 
cle delivery  to  any  part  of  the 
community  from  7:30  In  the

given  to  phone  orders,"  Mr.  Jen- 
kins said,  "are  all  a  part  of  my

BOYCOTTING  ITAUAN  STORES 


TWO  THOUSAND  HARLEMITES  last 
w«ek  paraded  in  protest  to  Mussolini's 
dewgns  on  Abyssinia,  and  considered  the 
boycotting  of  aU  Italian  stores  in  New 
York  City  as  a  retaliatory  measure. 

n  Duce  may  chuckle  up  his  sleeve  at 
this  demonstration.  It  may  not  alter  one 
ioU  the  plans  of  Italian  imperialists,  nor 
delay  the  proposed  invasion  and  subjuga- 
tion of  the  UtUe  Ethiopian  kingdom. 

The  significance  of  this  demonstraUon 
li9i  in  its  effect  on  the  minds  of  millions 
of  Italian  and  N^jro  people.  To  the  Ital- 
ian people  in  New  York,  it  may  bring  a 
gUmmering  of  what  is  happening  to  their 
kinsmen  in  the  mother  country.  To  mil- 
lions of  Aframericans  it  may  give  a  reali- 
o^on  of  the  resemblance  between  ItaUan 
Ii^Bcism  and  American  Democracy. 

The  Italian  people  should  know  that 
between  June  1927  and  January  1933,  in 
their  Corporate  Bute,  where  the  workers' 
tight  to  strike  Is  abolished,  ItaUan  wage- 
ouiieni  were  subjected  to  three  wage 
eotst  fii«t  of  20  per  cent,  then  of  10  per 
cent,  and  then  6f' 18-25  per  cent.  In  the 
iMriod  between  1929  and  1932,  according 
to  the  June  1933  International  Labor  Of- 
fice Report,  the  total  payroll  of  wages  and 
B^lariea  fell  from  6,040  million  lire  to  4,- 
100  millions,  a  decrease  in  the  purchasing 
power  of  the  wage-earners  of  19  per  cent. 
Moreover,  the  social  service  expenditures 
<rf  Italy  are  among  the  lowest  of  any 
leading  country  in  Europe,  amounting  to 
3  per  cent  of  the  total  national  budget,  as 
against  7  per  cent  in  Belgium  or  9  per 
oont  in  Britain. 

What  then,  is  the  purpose  of  this  mer- 
eileas  wage-cutting,  of  this  attack  on  tb< 
pepple's  standard  of  living,  if  it  is  not  to 
picserve  at  all  coate  a  system  of  economy 
in  which  production  is  organized  for  pri- 
vate profit?  And  in  order  to  extract 
profit  from  the  ever-dwindling  market, 
napt  not  this  system  lower  still  the  costa 
of  peoduction,  increase  .the  rate  of  ex- 
ploitation, and  attack  the  workers'  stand- 
ai^  and  the  social  services?  As  the  pro- 
4qetiTe  forces  fall  more  and  more  into 
AaUK,  and  the  population  of  "superflu- 
mp"  wage-earners  more  and  more  in- 
cnaaea,  is  not  war  the  only  "solution,"  the 
oqly  aalvatlon  of  the  fascist  state? 

The  Italians  should  learn  the  truth 
about  their  hero-dictator  and  his  instru- 
mtmi  Vt  control  They  should  see  clearly 
the  role  of  the  fascist  state  and  ita  in- 
evitable racoune  ^  imperialist  war  as  a 
SHans  of  self -preservation. 

"  On  the  basia  of  this  improved  under- 
gtaadtatg.   the   Italian    people    will    realize 
'i    thpi  the  bond  between  themselves  and  the 
[:  fe||tleia     demonstrators,     between     them- 
il3^  and  the  "unciviUzed"    Abyssinians, 
|k  e  doaer,  more  fundamental  bond  than 
.Mt    between    I^Jlan    wage-earners    and 
.  n^ttaii  profit-eaekers.  They  will  see,  more- 
-Jlgtt,  that  the  s^Vaticn  of  their  kinsmen   . 
f  iM  tkeir  native  ^^d  lies  in  the  disinte-

By  Jolta  P.  DMfIa 

At   once   the    most   stritdnji   and 
irrefutable  iudication  of  the  effect 

these  graduates  would  have  been  quickly  Lf  the  -New  Dear-  oa  the  Negro 
absorbed  into  the  pi-oductive  processes  as 
menials,  domestic  servanta,  or  common 
laborers.  Some  few  would  have  gone  into 
professional  schools  to  become  physicians, 
lawyers,  preachers,  teachers.  The  young 
women  would  have  quietly  settled  down  to 
raising  a  family.  Life  would  have  had  a 
direction;  living  would  have  had  a  pur- 
pose. 

But  alas,  this  coimtry's  age  of  unpara- 
lleled production  is  ended.  Millions  of 
bushels  of  wheat  are  burned,  nullions  of 
live-stock  slaughtered,  while  millions  of 
men  and  women  stand  in  bread-lines  and 
mob  relief  shelters.  The  waste  in  material 
goods  and  human  life  is  magnitudinous. 

Ekionomic  ruin  is  accompanied  by  mor- 
al degeneration.  All  is  confusion  in 
thought  and  idea.  The  world  driite  toward 
barbarism,  and  human  lives  drift  with  it 
— useless,  purposeless,  valueless. 

What  are  young  Aframerican  gradu- 
ates to  do?  They  cannot  find  even  menial 
work.  The  profeesions  are  overrcrowded. 
They  lack  the  cnpital  required  for  busi- 
ness enterprise,  and  if  they  had  it  ita 
risk  would  be  too  great.  Family  life  is 
undermined  by  economic  insecurity  and 
intellectual  stagnation.  The  church's  value 
as  a  social  center  is  nullified  by  Ita  preoc- 
cupation with  the  life  after  deatti.  There 
is  no  place  in  politics  for  America's  Tenth 
Man.  Is  there  no  way  out?  Indeed,  yes. 

Young  Negro  Americans  have  two  al- 
ternatives. On  the  one  hand,  they  may 
surrender  to  the  "tides  of  circumstance" 
and  drift  with  the  world.  They  may  ac- 
cept a  menial's  place,  drown  their  aspir- 
ations in  mediocrity,  renoimce  effort,  dis- 
claim their  vision  of  the  good  life,  di^ard 
great  expectations,  and  reconcile  them- 
selves to  the  world  as  they  find  it.  This 
is  not  an  heroic  way,  not  the  way  of  "edu- 
cated" men  and  women. 

The  other  alternative,  however,  is  a 
test  of  their  education.  It  is  the  way  of 
social  change.  It  demands  that  they  dedi- 
cate their  energies  and  equipment  to  the 
gigantic  task  of  reconstructing  society  so 
that  material  goods  can  be  used  to  con- 
serve and  enrich  human  life,  so  that 
human  life  can  have  significance  and  di- 
rection. This  alternative  is  V^e  duty  of

the  growids  that  relief  adminis- 
tration has  become  more  humane. 
As  a  matter  of  fact  federal  relief 
officers,  themselves,  admit  that 
grave  abuses  exist  In  the  admlnis- 
traUon  of  rural  relief  to  Negroes. 
And  this  is  reliably  borne  out  by 
the  disproportionate  increase  in 
the  number  of  urban  Negro  fam- 
ilies on  relief  to  the  number  of 
rural  Negro  families  on  relief. 
Thus  the  increase  in  the  number 
of  Negroes  in  relief  families  is  an 
accurate  indication  of  the  deepen- 
ing of  the  economic  crisis  for 
bhwk  America. 

NRA  Lowers  Negro  StanOard  of

The  promise  of  NRA  to  bring 
higher  wages  and  increased  em- 
ployment to  industrial  workers 
has  glimmered  away-  In  the  code- 
making  process  occupational  and 
geographcial  differentials  at  first 
were  used  as  de^^ces  to  exclude 
from  the  operation  of  minimum 
wages  an  dmaximum  hours  the 
bulk  of  the  Negro  workers.  Later, 
clauses  baaing  code  wage  rates  on 
the  previously  existing  wage  dif- 
ferential between  Negro  and  white 
workers  tended  to  continue  the 
inferior  status  of  the  Negro.  For 
the  particular  firms  for  whom 
none  of  these  devices  served  as 
an  effective  means  of  keeping 
down  Negro  wages,  there  is  an 
easy    way   out   through   the    secur-

A  NEQRO  HOSPITAL 


THE  REVEREND  AMOS  H.  CARNE- 
GIE of  Nev^'  York,  executive' secretary  of 
the  Negro  National  Hospital  Fund,  is  re- 
ported to  be  in  San  FYancisco  to  survey 
hospitalization  needs  among  Negroes  here, 
with  a  view  to  establishment  of  a  hospital 
for  training  Negroes  in  medical  and  surgi- 
cal work.  He  will  seek  subscriptions  of 
$400,000  to  defray  ita  cost. 

The  Spokesman  dislikes  to  raise  the 
cr  yof  "Jifn  Crowism*  as  often  &$  it  does. 
But  as  often  as  there  is  danger  of  jim 
crowism,  there  is  n«ed  of  wamint  against 
it  A  Negro  hospital  in  a  locality  where 
access  to  other  hospitals  is  easy  can  not 
be  called  anything  else  but  a  jlm-crow 
hospital. 

How  Rev.  Mr.  Carnegie  proposes  to 
raise  $400,000  to  build  this  hospital  is  an- 
other question,  the  answer  to  which  is 
known  only  to  the  'Reverend"  and  Lord 
God  Almighty. 

"  Certainly '  the  difficulty  of  soliciting 
this  fund  is  known  to  the  visitor  from 
New  York.  Which  causes  us  to  wonder 
whether  he  is  really  serious  about  raising 
it.' 

Vhen  again,  does  the  Bay  City  com- 
munity of  Negroes  wish  a  professional 
mendicant  from  New  York  to  importune 
the  white  people  of  the  Bay  CSties  for 
aid?  Why  not  do  our  own  begging. — that 

is,  if  we  feel  that  begging  is  justifiable?

when  we  realize  that  the  average 
amount  of  work  a  longshoreman 
teceives  during  the  year  is  from 
ten  to  15  weeks,  the  wage  rate 
loses  much  of  Ita  significance.

with  the  part  time  and  irregular

their  half  of  the  frame,  hut  that 
was  the  best  they  could  do  and 
so  the  game  ended,  with  the  Pel- 
icans going  into  a  first  place  tie. 
Heavy  hitters  for  the  winners 
were  January,  Lane  and  Hubbard, 
who    banged    out    two    each.    Also 

lgg  I  hitting    a     pair,     were     Perry     and 

jjl   Crowley  for  the  losers.

WHY  WE  HAVE  NO  UEUTENANTS 

•  OAKLAND'S  CIVIL  SERVICE  Com- 
nuBSkin  will  soon  again  examine  applica- 
tioss  for  promotion  in  the  City  Fire  De- 
partment. Among  these  applicants  will  be 
several  of  our  yotmg  men.  Will  they  be 
promoted? 

If  this  question  is  to  be  decided  on  any 
other  basis  than  that  of  merit,  we  may 
fate  the  realization  now  that  no  Negroes 
will  be  promoted  to  superior  positions  in 
the  Oakland  Fire  Department.  Several 
members  of  the  Negro  Engine  Company 
have  already  been  represented  at  exam- 
inations given  by  this  same  Civil  Service 
board  and  their  ratings  have  warranted 
promotion.  The  Board  "waited  for  a  va- 
cattey  in  the  department."  Although  other 
vacancies  have  been  filled,  they  are  still 
waiting. 

We  all  know  questions  of  merit  never 
comprise  the  whole  of  the  Commission's 
agenda.  Obviously,  there  are  questions  of 
pc^tical  and  economc  expcdency  to  de- 
cide. With  all  deference  to  the  purported 
"imtouchability"  of  Civil  Service  Commis- 
sionera^  it  may  still  be  said  that  these 
gentlemen  are  merely  agents  of  the  local 
government.  We  know,  too,  that  every 
local  government  in  the  United  States 
practices  jim  crowism  while  preaching  the 
square  deal.  Now  is  as  good  a  time  as  any 
to  admit  this  fact,  before  it  is  crammed 
down  our  throats  with  less  camouflaged 
measures. 

If  the  Negro  people  of  Oakland  actual- 
ly Wish  to  be  represented  among  the  of- 
ficers of  the  Fire  Department,  they  will 
place  pressure  where  it  belongs—on  the 
city  government.

THE  DEED  SCOTT  DECISION  OF  19S6 

AMERICAS  HIGHEST  AUTHORITY 
sent  Angelo  Hemdon  back  to  die  on  a 
Georgia  chain-gang.  The  Supreme  Court 
refused  to  alter  the  lower  court's  decision 
upholding  Hemdon's  conviction  for  the 
violation  of  a  law  used  before  1864  to 
keep  Negroes  from  revolting  against 
chattel  slavery.  It  required  that  Hemdon's 
defense  exhaust  all  "legal  iwssibilities 
within  the  State." 

This  means  that  Hemdon,  whose  only 
crime  was  in  exhorting  his  people  to 
break  their  fetters,  must  serve  from  18  to 
20  years  on  a  Georgia  chain-gang  imless 
the  L  L.  D.  is  able  to  carry  the  fight  again 
through  Georgia's  courts  up  to  the  Na- 
tiOB's  hlf^est  authority.  Doubtful  though 
the  outcome  of  this  procedure  is,  it  never- 
thflei  must  be  followed. 

DeUveriog  Hemdon  into  the  hands  of

Making  Profits  from  Legal  Murder 


VULTURES  FATTEN  on  carrion.  They  waH  unMI  dftith  overtakes 
an  animal.  Then,  with  much  screeching  and  flapping  of  uingA,  Ihey  make 
capital  of  the  dead  flesh. 

The  S|>okeNnian  suspecti>  that  >'ulture«>  liave  their  human  prototypes 
in  the  State  Capital  at  Kacranientu.  These  human  carrion-birds  seizetL 
upon  the  dead  bod>'  of  Rush  Griffin  and,  with  much  puMidty  and  hu- 
luaiiiturian  mouthiiigs,  tried  to  make  political  capital  of  his  death. 

They  appointed  fk  ^.pccial  state  committee  to  iiivcstig:Uo  tlie  Idilln;;. 
They  pas:.eJ  a  bill  requiring  a  "double  chock"  to  prevent  the  rcpctltiou 
of  such  "mistakes."  They  bewailed  and  regretted  and  deplored. 

Doubtless  many  persons  will  believe  that  our  enlightened  and  hu- 
mane public  officials  have  acted  solely  from  a  sense  of  justice.  But  The 
Spokesman  predicts  that  when  elect  ion- time  rolls  around  you  will  hear 
the  story  of  tlieir  heroic  efforts  in  the  Rush  Griffen  case  told  and  retold 
a  thousand  times.  The^e  gentlemen  will  attempt  to  make  their  cftort» 
the  basis  for  a  {lolitical  claim  on  jour  sense  of  gratitude. 

YOU  HAVE  NO  REASON  TO  BE  GRATEFUL!  Examine  with 
thinking  minds  the  actual  results  of  these  "heroic"  efforts  to  whitewash 
the  Griffen  blunder,  and  jou  will  see  cause  for  publicly  excoriating  every 
one  implicated  in  the  "investigation." 

Did  the  State  Investigational  Committee  discover  any  reason  for 
Rush  Grif fen's  violation  of  the  law?  Did  it  "find"  anything  wrong  with 
the  social  system  which  creates  Bush  Grif  fens?  Did  it  recommend  any 
amelioration  of  those  conditions  which  divert  the  energies  of  thousands 
of  hopeful  young  men  and  women  into  channels  of  vice  and  crime? 

What  did  the  Committee  actually  investigate?  The  reason  why  a 
stupid  clerk  could  cheat  the  State  of  its  victim!  It  investigated  how  and 
why  a  human  being  was  legally  murdered  sooner  than  the  date  set  for 
Ills  murder.  And  it  callously  washed  its  bands  of  the  whole  matter  by 
finding  that  there  is  no  "double  check-up"  on  hangings.  It  dismissed  the 
entire  Rush  Griffen  case  with  all  its  magnitudinous  hnplications  by 
blaming  a  legal  technicality! 

Our  far-sighted  and  benevolent  legislators  accepted  this  report  of 
the  Committee's  findings.  They  passed  a  bill  requiring  a  doubk  check-19 


to  i»reveot  furtlier  "mistake  hangings."  They  then  wrote  "Finis"  to  the 
entire  episode.  The  ease  of  Bush  Griffen,  so  far  as  Ihe  State  is  con- 
cometl,  is  now  closed. 

Heading  the  special  State  Committee  investigating  the  Orlffen  ca.se 
was  Walter  A.  Gordon,  Berkeley  lawyer,  l^nlversity  graduate,  gridiron 
hero,  legal  advisor  to  strong  Negro  business  and  fnitcrnal  organizations, 
and  president  of  the  Alameda  Coiinty  branch  of  the  N.  /\,  A.  C  P. 
Introducing  the  bill  to  require  a  double  check  up  on  siibseiiuent  hangings 
.\vaS  .^ngii.stu'*  Hawkins,  Assemblyman  froia  Loi  Angeles,  University 
Crsiduaie,  student  of  Economics,  and  infliicntici  Negro  civic  leader. 

Both  flordon  and  lla»kiiis  are  Negroes.  Both  know — or  should  know 
— the  conditions  of  Negroes.  Both  know  these  conditions  arc  Mhite- 
washed  by  "inv^tigating  committees."  Both  know  these  conilitlons  are 
worsened  by  the  demagogic  devices  of  legislative  tricksters. 

Why  then,  did  not  Gordon  and  Hawkins  demand  a  genuine  Investi- 
gation, a  law  to  end  all  Rush  Griffen  c&nes,  a  legal  reform  of  the  condi- 
tions that  create  Rush  Griffens?  Here  «as  a  signal  opportunity  for 
Gordon  and  Hawkins  to  establish  their  claim  to  Negro  leadership.  Here 
was  their  chance  to  strike  a  blow  for  the  freedom  of  Negroes  and  all 
otfaej-  people  on  whom  the  gallows  have  a  special  claim. 

Did  Gordon  and  Hawkins  lack  the  courage  to  make  this  demand? 
Or  were  these  two  Negroes,  equipped  with  a  University  education  to  lead 
the  struggle  of  less  fortunate  Negroes  toward  full  emancipation — were 
they  too  thinlung  of  an  election-time  when  they  might  make  capital  of 
the  broken  body  of  Rush  Griffen?  The  Spokesman  hopes  they  can  ex- 
plain. But  no  matter  what  their  explanation,  this  newspaper  deplores  the 
methods  used  by  the  State  of  California  to  justify  the  untimeliness  of  a 
legal  murder.  Such  methods  expose  the  pollution  with  which  government 
is  shot  through  and  through. 

As  the  servant  of  its  constituency,  the  State  shoidd  nourish,  protect, 
and  raise  the  lives  of  its  people  ever  to  higher  levels.  Instead,  it  throws 
its  full  power  to  preserving  the  inequalities  which  dwarf,  outrage,  and 
press  down  hiunan  beings  into  poverty,  vice,  and  crime.  And  when  any 
irregularity  occurs  In  its  official  murder  of  one  of  these  hiunan  beings, 
itr  provides  against  further  irregularities  with  legal  technicaUties!

and  seem  to  be  no  more  than 
circulaUon  builders.  But  the  idea 
of  a  children's  section  is  good 
and  could  be  used  with  great  edu-

this  difference  Is  accompanied  by 
a  difference  In  social  advantages. 
The  white  child  seems  to  move 
through  life  more  or  less  unre- 
stricted, while  he,  the  Negro 
Dhild,  feels  an  ever  tlghtenmg 
circle  of  restraint  Imposed  upon 
his    every    activity. 

I  have  tried  to  explain  to  my 
own  child  the  reason  for  ^his. 
and  hs  has  shown  an  interest  in 
my  explanations  which  very  few 
adults  seem  to  have.  He  knows, 
for  example,  that  his  color  is 
made  a  point  of  differentiation 
because  other  people  wish  to  keep 
him  feeling  inferior,  so  that  they 
may  use  him  throughout  his 
whole  life.  Already,  and  he  is 
only  eight,  he  Is  contemptuous  of 
the  humiliating  cartoons  of  plck- 
ininnlcs  that  he  sees  In  the  fun- 
nies. Once  he  told  me  that  the 
.nan  who  drew  a  particularly  de- 
plorable picture  of  a  Negro  boy 
.nust  have  been  paid  well  to  do  it. 
There  can  be  no  more  funda- 
mental question  than  this  one 
concerning  the  Impressions  con- 
veyed to  our  children.  I  am  sure 
that  I  am  appealing  for  hun-

IN  A  Cljias  BY  ITSEUP 

OP  ALL  the  journals  of  opinion  cur- 
rently published  in  this  country,  The  New 
Masses  stands  in  a  class  by  itsAlf.  Increas- 
ingly it  ia  bcco.iiing  a  weekly  ntcesaily  for 
anyone  who  desires  a  realistic  Jnicrprcta- 
tion  of  social,  economic  and  cultural  devcl- 
oiin^cnti;  in  this  country.  Whore  otlier  pub- 
lications remain  silent  in  the  fsico  of  insid- 
ious abuses  llie  New  Ma.s.scs  spcaJifl  out  in 
clear  and  unmistakable  condemnation. 
Where  others  tend  to  gloss  over  new  and 
ancient  evils,  this  magazine  tears  away 
the  veil  of  pretense  and  hypocrisy  and  ex- 
poses the  true  nature  and  roots  of  all 
forms  of  oppression  against  the  masses. 

Esjicciaily  are  the  Negroes  of  America 
indebted  to  The  New  Masses  for  its  un- 
compromising stand  against  the  special 
forms  of  oppression  designed  to  keep  us 
at  the  bottom  of  the  social  and  economic 
ladder.  In  recent  months  The  New  Masses 
has  published  three  contributioas  which  in 
themselves  demonstrate  the  value  of  this 
organ  in  the  movement  for  the  liberation 
of  oppressed  peoples.  The  ficst  of  these 
was  John  Spivak's  scries  on  Anti-Semitism 
in  the  country;  the  second,  Loren  Miller's 
"Mail  order  Dictatorship,"  an  expose  of 
the  strangle  hold  the  Rosenwald  Fund  has 
secured  over  Negro  leadership;  and  cur- 
rently. Marguerite  Young's  scries  on 
"Washington — Jim-Crow  Capital." 

While  Mr.  Spivak's  articles  ^d  not  deal 
with  the  immediate  problems  of  the  Ne- 
gro, it  is  well  to  rememijcr  that  the  forces 
which  make  for  Anti-Scmitiam  arc  essen- 
tially the  same  of  those  which  breed  pre- 
judice against  the  Negro.  This  In  spite  of 
the  fact  that  one  occasionally  meets  indi- 
viduals bitterly  opposed  to  Jews  who  ap- 
parently are  sincerely  friendly  towards 
the  Negro. 

Mr.  Miller,  a  newspaper  man  and  law- 
yer of  Los  Angeles,  analyzes  with  cold 
objectivity  the  vitiating  influence  of  the 
Rosenwald  Fund.  The  role  of  this  fund 
and  the  collaboration  it  has  secured  from 
the  Federal  Government  in  shaping  poli- 
cies concerning  the  Negro  arc  set  forth 
with  startling  clarity. 

The  ramifications  of  Jim-Crowism  in 
Washington  are  revealed  by  WMk  Young 
in  her  series  which  began  with  the  current 
number  of  magazine.  Racial  s*l)aratlon 
permeates  all  walks  of  life  in  the  nation's 
capital.  Miss  Young  asserts,  and  cites  in- 
contestable evidence  in  support  of  her 
charges. 

An  organ  of  the  Communist  party,  The 
New  Masses  is  committed  to  "following 
the  party  line."  This  sometimes  leads  it 
into  difficult  positions,  such  as  the  para- 
dox of  bitterly  scoring  Hitler's  bloody 
purge  on  the  one  hand,  while  on  the  other 
hand  defending  the  unwarrantM  execu- 
tions by  Soviet  authorities  fsttowing  the 
assassination  of  Kirov.  But  the  discerning 
reader  will  recognize  this  as  adherence  to 
a  rigid  party  discipline  and  will  discount 
it  accordingly. 

What  is  of  far  greater  importance  is 
the  outstanding  position.  The  New  Masses 
has  gained  as  an  effective  organ  hi  the 
fight  against  exploitation,  against  sham 
of  all  sorts.— H.  L.  M.

TOBACCO  ROAD 

Persons  who  have  a  bent  for  dramatic 
realism  and  those  who  are  interested  in 
understanding  social  conditions  ought  all 
to  see  "Tobacco  Road,"  now  playing  at  the 
Curran. 

The  play  deals  with  the  life  of  the 
poor  whites  in  the  South.  It  is  a  vivid, 
dynamic,  gripping  picture  of  that  life,  re- 
vealing the  complete  disintegration,  de- 
generation and  dehumaniuttioo  of  a  sec- 
tion of  the  white  population  in  the  South. 

With  little  or  no  plot,  the  play  moves 
rapidly  with  events  in  a  short  period  of 
Ume,  revealing  a  sordid  life  of  apathy  to 
everything  on  the  part  of  a  coroRjetely  be- 
numbed peoi)le,  beaten  down  upder  the 
vicious  agricultural  economy  in  the  South. 
Opening  with  the  theft  of  a  sa^of  tur- 
nips by  Jeeter  and  his  family  who  are  lit- 
erally dying  from  slow  starvation,  sordid 
detail  after  detail  follows.  The  only  Indica- 
Uon  of  a  spark  of  humanity  in  U>c  hfe  of 
these  people  is  where  Jeeter  tf  .moved  by 
the  lone  value  in  his  life,  the  |ovc  of  the 
soil  and  the  aroma  of  fresh  tiUTHed  loam 
and  of  burning  sage  brush,  fiyen  death 
proves  welcome. 

Those  persons  who  think  that  only  the 
Negro  is  oppressed  by  the  social  system  in 
the  South  ought  not  to  miss  this  play  It 
is  a  revelation  of  the  lack  oi(  «iviUxation 
in  one  of  the  supposedly  riyillaed  coun- 
tries in  the  wcild.

"Darkles  and  Orientals  have  t<i 
have  a  health  certiflcntc  to  swim 
lo  Sutro  Baths,'  said  the  woman 
taking  tickets  at  the  famous  re- 
sort  to  Mrs.  M  Hanu  and  Ut" 
M  Kanuey.  San  Francisco  reli- 
gioas  leaders,  when  they  sought 
admittance  to  the  baths  on  day 
last   week. 

A  few  minutes  the  girl  correct- 
ed herself  by  saying  dark  peo- 
ple", as  she  pointed  to  a  sign 
Just  Inside  the  ticket  cage  which 
•aid  The  management  reserves 
the    right    to    refuse    admission' 

Further  questioning  from  thi- 
young  woman  rlicited  the  infor- 
mation that  the  two  women 
would  have  lo  Sfcuir  a  permit 
from  the  Knaeil  of  Healh  bcforr 
they  would  be  allowed  in  the  tank 
She  refused  lo  lake  their  tickets.

aMheugh  several  white  i^rson.-i 
pasard  through  unchnllengcij  a.i 
they    were    standing    there. 

Inquiry   nt    thm   Board    of   H.-alth ' 
showed     that     there     is     absolutely 
BO    hallh    regulation    which    forces 
a  customer  in   a  bathing   resort   to  , 
furnish    proof    of    good    health     n> 
long   as   there    is   no  obvious   sani-. 
tary    rrasofi    for    demanding    such 
proof. 

Mrs.  Hanu  and  Mrs  Ramsey. 
'  both  of  whom  are  active  at  the 
Pentecostal  Mission  at  Webster

Back  again  in  first  place,  from 
which  they  were  dumped  recently

that,  the  W.  A.  lads  gave  tbe

the  claasy  young  Wa  Sung  Chin-

by  a  A  to  3  count  and  moved  into 
a  third  place  tie  with  the  Blk

lacbea  for  the  Jump,  set  by 
Chuhel  Nambu  of  Japan  lu  1931, 
Owens  tied  Prank  Wykoffs 
world  100  yard  dash  standard 
of  9.4   seconds. 

After  his  jump  he  raced  to 
spectacular  world  record-sma:>hing 
triumphs  in  the  220-yard  dash  and 
the  220-yard  low  hurdles.  Running 
by  himself  after  the  first  few 
strides,  he  finished  tbe  furlong  in 
20.3  seconds.  Tbe  performance 
was  three-tenths  of  a  second  un- 
der Roland  Locke's  world  record, 
shaded  Lockfe's  American  mark 
of  20.5.  and  beat  Ralph  Metcalfe's 
collegiate  mark  of  20.4  seconds. 
RUNS  HURDLES 
IN    tS.6   SECONDS 

Apparently     just      as      fresh      as 
wheu   he   started   his   day   of  days. 
Owens   completed    bis   conquest   of 
records    by    winning    tbe    low    hur- 
dles in  22.6  seconds,  four-tanlha  of 
a    second    under    the    Haled    world 
standard    held    jointly    by    Charles 
Brookins     of    Iowa    and     Norman 
Paul,  Southern   California  ace. 
That  Jump,  about  which  ttaek 
fane  are  likely   to  be  taUring  far 
a  long  llnto— unlrae  Oweaa  glvea 
them     MNiietlilag     ciee     ta     taUt 
alMut    soon — waa    Jnst    ahoat    a 
perfect  effort. 

He  blazed  down  tbe  turf  run- 
way on  his  first  attempt  with 
every  ounce  of  bis  eiraaslng  speed, 
struck  the  takeoff  squarely  aad 
rocketed  off  into  space.  Before  be 
landed  it  was  apparent  that  he 
had  been  shooting  all  season.  Tbe 
judges  of  the  event  withheld  an- 
nouncement as  they  checked  and 
recbecked  the  leap,  but  the  10.000 
spectators  knew,  when  Owens 
started  jumping  up  and  down, 
that  It  was  a  record  effort 

Owen's  records  will  be  offered 
for  adoption  a*  world  marks.  He 
did  not  use  starting  blocks  siod 
tb'e  wind,  brisk  at  first,  died 
down  as  Owens 'set   his  mark*.

HATriELD'S  DOUBLE  ROLE 


vmiMAS  Maids  and  porters  in 

VA1IK3UABD  OF  NEGRO'S  STRUGGLE 

^.vTHIS  WEEK,  when  Pullman  maids 
and  porters  choose  between  their  own 
Brotherhood  and  the  Wall  Street  con- 
trolled company  union,  it  will  be  the  first 
time  that  Negro  woricers  have  had  the 
c^portunlty  of  voting  tor  their  economic 
rightf  in  an  election  uiider  federal  super- 
ViBioii. 

■'I^e  election  will  be  secret,  and  held 
0^  Pullman  property.  On  the  ballot  will 
be  the  names  of  the  Brotherhood  of 
Sleeping  Car  Porters  and  the  Pullman 
Porters  and  Maids  Protective  Association. 
This  last  named  organization  is  a  device 
tiy  which  the  Pullman  Company  intends 
%B  continue  its  exploitation  of  Negro 
workers.  It  is  paid  for  by  the  Company, 
which  means  that  it  is  paid  for  by  J.  P. 
Ifiorgfn,  R.  K.  Mellon,  Alfred  P.  Sloan, 
Geetye  F.  Baker,  Harold  S.  Vanderbilt, 
George  Whitney,  and  other  financiers  and 
industrialists  who  sit  on  the  Pullman  Com- 
pany board  of  directors. 

B^catilte  of  the  courageous  educational 
work  carried  on  during  the  last  ten  years 
by  the  lekdei^  of  the  Brtitherhood '  of 
S&eeping  Car  Porters,  mosf  of  the  maids 
•Ibd  pbrten  Uhderstiind  the  role  played  by 
■brg^"  Mellon, -id)d  company  in  main- 
ttfamg  fhe  I<}egro*8  present  economic  sta- 
tus in  America.  These  black  workers  are 
not  dfteeived  by  the  Conipany  union  tac- 
Uoi.  They  plaiiily  aie  thi  issue.  And  all 
•  itbo  are  not  completely  demoralized  by 
Aar-or  bribery  win  vote  ler  the  Brother- 
h^wd. 

Voting  for  Uie  BrothWhood,  and  thiis 
aJKlUnSt  the  comptoy  union,  is  both  a  self- 
protaptive  meaaure  for  every  maid  and 
fortett  uid  a  measure  by  which  the  maids 
and  iwrters  may  step  into  the  vanguard 
of  NUgro  leadership.  Not  only  is  a  strong 
and  formidable  Brotherhood  the  sole  in- 
Wtruiytnt  through  which  maids  and  port- 
crf  ii)ay  have  their  grievances  against  the 
company  adjusted,  their  wages  raised 
asd  woiidng  conditions  improved;  it  is 
«lf»  «n  effective  instrument  by  which  Ne- 
sd  As  a  whole  will  win  over  the  rank 
of  the  American  Federation  of 
I^Sbof,  thiis  cau^g  that  organization  to 
ilMttih  the  Gok>r  line  in  its  affiliated  or- 
Hlkiiil^tions  and  to  enter  more  militantly 
|||to  tiM  straggle  tot  Negro  liberation.

.A*";*!***: 


"I  AM  ENCLOSING  a  copr  of  an  article  writteh  bj^  0«k>r|(«  Jenldns. 
mj-  iM>rsonal  page  in  the  Stat*  Scnat«  and  the  ohly  co)k)re<l  boy  ever  to 
aene  as  a  page  in  the  histor)-  of  the  Cailfoniia  Senate,"  ttTote  Lieutenant 
Governor  George  J.  Hatfield  in  a  letter  to  The  Spokesman  this  neck. 
"So  what?"  was  our  mode«t  inqiiirj',  which  is  ansnered  inunediatefy  by 
young  Jenkins  hinwelf,  who  concludes  his  observations  with  the  follow- 
ing sigiTificatit  Ntatement: 

"The  days  I  have  Kpent  iu  the  Senate  hitve  been  very  interesting, 
educational,  and  pleaHant;  therefore,  I  consider  It  a  rare  honor  to  parti- 
cipate b)'  performing  the  duties  of  a  page  for  Lieutenant  Governor  Hat- 
field, whom  I  have  always  found  to  be  an  unbiased  judge  in  all  matters, 
regardless  of  affiliations,  creed,  or  other  personal  characteristics,  and 
fair  to  all  races  and  nationalities." 

That  part  of  young  Jenkins'  statement  in  lighter  type  Ls  au  addition 
to  the  carbon  copy  of  the  boy's  article.  It  is  either  an  after-thought 
suggested  by  the  Lieutenant  Governor,  or  an  addition  of  Mr.  Hatfield 
without  consulting  the  boy.  Since  the  wording  of  the  entire  article  is  so 
precisely  diplomatic  as  to  suggest  its  writing  by  one  far  more  schooled 
in  puUicity  than  young  Jenkins,  whether  or  not  the  last  few  words  were 
superimposed  by  someone  else  Is  of  little  importance  except  as  it  indi- 
cates the  purpose  of  Mr.  Hatfield's  strange  and  sudden  "cooperation" 
with  the  Negro  press.  Though  this  o<>o|>oration  at  first  surprised  The 
S{iokesinan,  now  it  appears  more  understandable. 

Generous  George  Hatfield  has  pontlcal  ambitions.  He  is  a  painstak-^ 
ing  politician,  cautious  not  to  ignore  even  the  few  ballots  of  California's 
Negro  constituency.  Yet,  he  is  compelled  by  the  system  he  serves  to  keep 
this  constituency  in  a  menial  and  subordinate  position.  Thus,  Mr.  Hat^ 
field's  political  problem  relating  to  Negroes  assumes  a  two-fold  aspect: 
On  the  one  hand,  he  most  win  their  confidence;  on  the  other  hand,  ho 
must  keep  his  foot  pressed  against  their  necks.  .      f' 

If  no  Negroes  perceived  the  Lieutenant  Governor's  two-sided  poUti* 

___ : . ;  '-  .'■■  ■        — — . • M 


ral  strategy,  he  Oilght  get  avl-ay  with  It.  Certainly  a  large  number  of  our 
people  nlll  be  ldkpr««sed  i)y  the«u»  propaganda  releasetl  from  Hatfield's 
office.  Indeed,  a  few  Negru  mlsleatlrrs  are  already  taking  up  the  cudgel 
for  Hatfield  and  the  present  administration,  contending  that  the  appoint- 
ment of  Jenkins  as  a  Senate  page  is  a  sign  of  good  faith.  Luckily  for  us, 
however,  many  of  our  more  miUtant  leaders  are  examining  the  state- 
ments of  politieians  In  the  lig;ht  of  their  background  and  what  they  re- 
present. 

Such  an  examination  o|  the  present  administration  discloses  some 
ugly  facts,  but  facts  which  we  are  compelled  to  face  If  we  would  find  a 
remedy  for  them.  We  see  Generous  George  Hatfield  as  being  no  more 
and  no  less  than  a  tool  of  the  social  syirtem  which  relegates  all  Negroes 
to  the  slum  and  the  basement.  He  is  representative  of  the  class  which 
derives  Its  |»ower  from  the  fact,  among  others,  that  Negroes  are  regard- 
ed as  inferior,  imfit  for  executive  positions,  unworthy  of  high  trust  and 
res(>onsibility.  The  truth  is  that  neither  Hatfield  nor  any  other  tool  of 
this  system  can  appoint  a  Negro  to  high  position  without  calling  into 
question  the  whole  structure  of  ideas  upon  which  the  system  rests. 

You  and  I  can  remain  confident  that  Generous  George  will  not  be- 
tray the  master  cktss.  The  Negro  constituency  in  California  is  not  big 
enough  to  make  him  do  it;  and  even  If  It  were,  he  has  illustrious  prece- 
dents in  the  South  of  methods  used  to  maintain  the  system  despite  the 
presence  of  larger  Negro  populations.  In  general,  he  will  continue  play- 
ing the  role  he  has  essayed.  He  will  be  long  on  words,  short  on  action. 
He  will  flatter  the  vanity  of  his  Negro  henchmen,  while  preserving  a  cool 
exterior  in  the  face  of  widespread  Negro  unemplojinent,  segregation, 
and  discrimination. 

The  Spokesman  consigns  Mr.  Hatfield  and  all  his  ilk  to  the  devil! 
May  we  see  the  day  when  all  ^uch  hypocrites  and  demagogues,  as  well 
as  the  ideas  and  institutions  they  represent,  are  burned  on  the  scrap- 
heap  of  a  new  societ>'{  Your  task  and  mine  is  to  build  a  new  America, 
tvli«t(v  democracy  is  a  fact.

Condemns  Spakesmaa  for 
Meek  and  Apologetic  Expos- 
ure  of   Hospital   Fraud 

EDITOR:  In  view  of  the  rapid 
spread  of  Segregation  all  over  the 
country,  and  in  view  of  the  fur- 
ther fact  that  ita  spread  is  a  sig- 
nal for  even  worse  and  mone 
damaging  conditions,  with  which 
this  human  animal  called  a  Negro, 
has  to  contend,  will  you  plaase 
tell  your  readers,  why  you  so 
meekly  and  so  apologetically  con- 
demned the  proposal  of  that 
"CULTURED"  gentleman,  seeking 
to  discover  what  chance  there  Is 
in  this  region,  to  establish  a  Ne- 
gro   hospital. 

I  had  the  privilege  of  assisting 
my  late  pal  and  colleague,  Williain 
Monroe  Trott*r.  KEEP  BOSTON 
CLEAN.  When  suota  human  nui- 
sances li  lie  this  came  to  that  city 
with  their  JIM-CROW  SCHEMES, 
he  or  I  or  both  of  us,  put  the 
"yeastcake"  under  him  so  decided- 
ly, that  he  soon  departed,  talOn^ 
his  plundering  degrading  scUante 
With   him. 

Why  not  cease  designating  Ne- 
groes as  "Africamericans  and  Af- 
ro-Americans, and  Negroes,  and 
Our  Group,  and  other  appellations 
of  a  distinctive  character?  Try 
eliminating  distinctions  for  a 
while,  and  see  bow  it  works!  In 
the  language  which  many  of  your 
readers  will  surely  understand, 
but  which  should  also  be  aban- 
doned, "If  you  docs  try  that, 
'taint  gwine  to  do  no  harm,"  It 
might    do    some    good.

service  In  a  place  of  public  ac- 
commodation, I  wonder  what  he 
personally  did  to  end  the  discrim- 
ination. In  most  caaes  you  will 
find  that  the  Insulted  person  does 
nothing  except  talk  about  it  on 
the  outside. 

I  know  this  because  I  did  the 
same  thing  for  a  long  lime.  But 
the  other  day  I  decided  to  change 
my  tactics  and  talk  it  over  with 
the  proprietor.  A  certain  eating 
place  on  Fillmore  had  refiiiod  to 
I  serve  me,  ignoring  my  presence 
in  a  booth  for  nearly  40  midntos. 
I  got  up  and  aaked  to  speak  to 
^  the   manager 

AJL  first  the  man  was  openly 
de/tant,  but  after  I  bad  explained 
my  '  poaltloo  he  mellowed  Mid 
llstancd  ^attentively.  His  oniy  rea- 
lieved  his  trade  would  sufltr  If 
son  seemed  to  be  that  be  ba- 
he  served  Negroes.  I  told  bin  of 
tnata;iees  where  tlu  managar  had 
thought  tbe  same  thing,  but  bad 
been  forced  by  the  courts  to 
change  his  policy  and  that  tbe 
change  bad  not  brought  bin  aay 
appreciable  falling  off  in  tradk;  in 
fact,  it  bad  increaaed  Ms  trade

borhood  patronised  hit  plao*  b«- 
cauas  It  was  tbe  beat  and  elwap-

I  think  If  It  had  oot  been  fw  my 


talking  to  him,  he  would  sUll  be 
refusing  service.  Let's  all  try  it. —

Says  'Belle  of  Barcelona' 
Shows  What  Local  Taieat  Caa 
Do   in    Field   of   Drama 

EDrrOR:  Since  you  asked  for 
suggestions  for  editorials  in  Tbe 
Spokesman,  I  think  no  better  ocr 
casion  for  an  inspiring  article  has 
been  offered  than  tbe  showing  of 
the  "Belle  of  Barcelona"  In  Berk- 
eley  last   week. 

All  praise  to  Mis*  Ida  Jackson, 
the  directress,  to  the  ladles  of  St. 
Augustine's  church,  and  to  the 
participants  in  the  operetta!  They 
have  showed  us  what  we  can  i^ 
if   wc   really   want  to. 

Jt  is  high  time  now  for  oi|r 
leaders  to  make  use  of  some  o( 
the  talent  lylps  idle  about  us  on 
cyery  hand.  Our  ^oung  people— 
and  old  ones  too--don't.  have  to 
,8pend  their  free  moments  in 
dancing  or  goiag  to  minstrel 
siu>ws  and  burlesques.  They  are 
able  to  interpret  serious  drama 
and  comedy,  and  I  don't  sec  why 
some  of  our  clubs  can't  get  be- 
hind  some   o(    them    and    prodi^ce 


j.  plays.  Besides  the  recreational 
value  to  the  participants  and  spec- 
tators, a  movement  of  this  kind 
would  have  a  great  educational 
effect  on  the  community.— Irma

Reviewed  by  1.  P.  Flory 

Dealing  with  the  problem  of 
public  education  for  Negroes  In 
the  South — especially  in  elemen- 
tary sch^ls— plus  a  panacea  as  a 
solutitm  for  an  old  problem,  name- 
ly. t|fe~  lacl^-'of  sufficient  Kunds 
for  tht'  «onduct  of  Negro  schbdis. 
the  author  proposes  that  the  Fed- 
eral Oovernin«nt  'guaraMce  *ahd 
safeguanf  state  equanzation.  Over 
a  period  of  time,  this  woif^d,  iq  the' 
opinion  of  the  author,  provide  a 
school  system  eminently  Satisfac- 
tory when  compsrod  with  existing 
conditions.  , 

Divided  into  three  parts,  the 
book  first  deals  with  the  historic- 
al background  of  Negro  education 
from  tba  CMMl  War  period  to  the 
present;  next  it  deals  with  prob- 
lems of  economics  and  finance; 
and  finally  It  considers  current 
problems. 

Mr.  Bond's  presentation,  while 
perhaps  clear  and  erudite,  is 
nevertheless  a  mcri  restatement 
of  s  problem  that  is  part  of  the 
greater  problem,  namely  tbe 
whole  socio-economic  milieu  that 
creates  a  "Negro"  educational 
systetd,  gnd  'fn  whi«h  that  sysfem 
operates.  Characteristically,  Mr. 
Bond  contents  himself  with  ignor- 
ing this  fundamental  fact.  He 
impHos  that  under  existing  con-< 
ditlons  Ibtngs  are  thuR  and  so. 
Jlut  be  .otfA^f.  n«  suggestlpn  fqr 
abolishing  these  conditions.  In 
etbir  words.  Mr.  ftond  predlcai<!s 
his  solution  of  the  Negro  educa- 
tional '  system  upon  csiaUng.  cpnr 
ditlons  of  "Jim-Crow,"  dlscrlml- 
nstlon.  dlsfraacblsement,  ruthless 
brutality,  and  complete  subjec- 
tion  of  a   people. 

Had  Mr.  Bond  been  more  critic- 
al, less  cautious,  ,he  might  have 
discoverad  tliat,  given  the  most 
«omplote  facilities  for  Negro  edu- 
caUaa  daemed  daairable,  the  edu- 
catad  Nagro  would  still  be  faced 
with  tha  eoadlttons  that  make 
their  whbia  adjusttaent  to  life  dlf- 
ficUt,  aa  wall  as  their  educational 
»roW*<B    what    It  Is. 

mally,  Ifr  B«ad  might'  taave 
shown  how  utterly  insdequata  Is 
the    whole    educatlonnl    Kyslen    In 


the  South  as  Indicated  by  the 
section's  backwardness  and  lynch 
phobia.  He  might  have  empha- 
sised the  comparatively  low 
amounts  of  money  spent  for  edu- 
cation of  whites  as  well  as  for 
Negroes.  In  other  words,  the  prob- 
lem of  Negro  education  is  the 
problem  of  the  education  of  the 
whites  in  the  South  in  a  greater 
degree. 

I<(o  one  questions  that  Mr.  Bond 
tfnoirs  thfkse  thinaa.  nor  'that  he 
is-  an  abli  writer  -and  scholar.  But 


one  might  deplora  bis  laok  of 
courage.  After  all,  the  prospects 
of  a  dcanship  in  a  Southern  Uni- 
versity forbid  a  writar  discussing 
prol>lems  in  the  South  without 
reservations. 

All  Negroes  ougl)t  to  read  this

shoold  be  read  with  tbe  cyss

Wonders  Why  The  Southern 
Hamsony  Pour  Has  to  Sing 
Only    Negro   Songs 

EDITOR:  Ever  since  the  South- 
ern Harmony  Four  has  been  a 
quartet,  I  have  tuned  in  on  their 
programs.  ■  For  a  long  time,  I  en- 
Joyed  hearing  the  same  old  Spiri- 
tuals and  Southern  Folk  Songs 
sung  over  and  over.  But  now  1 
am  ^becoming  tired  of  the  same 
old   stuff. 

The    boys    In    the    quartet    have 
voices    that    could    sing    some    of 
the    popular   ballads   or   classics   as 
♦■ell    If    not    better    than    many   of 
the    sorry    quartets    we    hear    over  I 
the    air    dally.    1    know    they    arc  I 
paid   to   sing  typical   Negro   songs,  j 
but    I    wonder    if    they   themselves' 
hAye   ever   asked    their   sponsor    to 
let  them  try  out  on  other  music.     ! 

It   woOld   certainly   be   refreshing ! 
to  hear' a  Negro  quartet  do  some- 
thing    else     than     Negro    songs.—

Thinks  John  Henry  Lewis  Is 
Making  Mistake  by  Not 
Taking  a  Long  VacaUon  Now 

EDITOR:  The  world's  best 
ligbtbcavywcight  may  never  win 
the  title.  He  seems  to  be  getting 
mentally  stale,  and  during  the 
last  few  fights  I  have  thought 
that  he  showed  unmistakcniy  that 
he  needed  a  vacation  from  the 
fight   game.  , 

John  Henry  is  only  a  youngster 
and_  can  easily  afford  to  rest  up 
and!  frun  u»^,  the  champion  is 
com^elfcd  W  fight  'bim  for  the 
title  or  else  tx;  dubbed  a  yellow 
quitter.  But  instead  of  that,  John 
is  still  tramping  about  the  coun- 
try mbetltig  second-  and  third- 
rktA-s,  Wasting  his'  energy  and 
strength  and  gradually  getting 
fad  up  with  the  dirty  deal  the 
fight  game  is  banding  him. 

He  is  still  the  best  In  the  game, 
and  physically,  he  will  be  for 
some  time  to  come.  But  no  matter 
bow  good  a  fighter  Is  physically, 
be  has  to  be  In  the  right  frame 
of  mind  to  be  a  champion.  He  ha.^ 
to  b»ve  the  will  to  win,  tbe  deter- 
mination to  stay  ugder  any  kind 
of  a  barrage  of  fists  until  he  gets 
the  chance  to  put  In  the  kayo.  He 
baa  to  believe  In  himself  and  his 
ability  to  win  despite  all  odds.  He 
has  to  have  faith  in  the  fight 
game,  and  the  essential  fairness 
ot  the  'tport. ' 

But  no  fighter  who  has  gotten 
tha  dirty  breaks  that  John  Henry 
has  gotten  can  still  have  faith  in 
lM>xlBg  as  a  clekn  sport,  where 
merit  wiU  Win.  John  will  soon  see 
tbf  graft  and  dishonesty  io  the 
gam*.  He  will  realize  that  be  Is 
being  framed,  being  used  to  make 
lifontfy  '  for'  crooked  promoters. 
And  when  that  day  comes  there 
is  a  danger  that  John  will  be 
more  concerned  about  the  money 
to  be  made  than  about  winning 
the  championship.  He  is  honest 
now,  but  that  is  no  guarantee 
that  some  day  he  might  not  be 
sorely    tempted    to    "lay   down  ' 

t  think  he  has  the  stuff  now  to 
win  th^  championship.  He  ought 
to  go  back  to  Phoenix,  rest  up. 
go  to  school,  keep  in  training  by 
taking  on  light  local  comers,  and 
bids  bis  time  until  the  New  York 
Bpxing*  Commission  comes  to  him.

ITAUAN  IMPERIALISM  S  SYSTEMATIC 

PREPARATIONS  FOR  WAR  ON  ABYSSWIA 


By  N.  Ferretti 

War  adventure,  no  matter  whot  the 
conccqi:cnc:s  ir.r-y  be,  that  Is  the  guiding 
line  of   Ilalian  faaclst  fcrcigri  policy  today. 

At  the  present  lime  800.000  Boldicm 
are  under  arms.  The  whole  of  the  1931 
claas  has  bctn  called  up,  the  1034  clasa 
haa  jurt  been  called  up,  whilst  the  1033 
claas,  which  was  to  have  been  demobil- 
ized on  Aj)ril  J,  has  been  retained,  as  have 
alto  all  officers  and  non-commiBeioned 
officers  who  arc  with  the  colors.  That  is 
the  reply  to  the  official  announcement  of 
Germany's  proclamation  of  conscription; 
that  is  the  confirmation  of,  the  decision  to 
keep  in  mind  "all  possibilities"  in  Europe,- 
whilst  engaging  in  a  rtbbcr  colonial  war. 
General  iSaistrocchi  (Under-Secretary  of 
State  in  the  War  Office)  declared  in  Par- 
liament that  the  tliirtocnth  year  of  fas- 
cism in  Italy  will  be  a  year  of  rapid  ad- 
vance. He  further  asserted  that  very  like- 
ly "war  will  break  out  unex|)cctcdly,  i.e., 
after  only  a  few  days'  {Kilitical  tension," 
that  therefore  "we  must  not  allow  othera 
to  forestall  u»,"  that  "wc  must  retain  the 
initiative  of  attack."  This,  it  was  declared, 
is  all  the  more  necessary  as  the  new  spirit 
promoted  by  fascism  is  not  suited  to  a 
long  war  of  attribution  and  demands  a 
war  of  movement  with  fierce  fighting.  In 
order  to  emphasize  that  this  was  not  mere 
rhetoric.  General  Baistrocchi  added  that, 
in  addition  to  the  three  year  classes  al- 
ready with  the  colors,  the  1932  class  con- 
stituted a  reserve  which  could  be  immedi- 
ately mobilized,  and  he  repeated  once 
again  that  Italy  was  capable  of  putting 
eight  million  men  between  the  age»  of  20 
and  55  into  the  field. 

.  The  "Sabauda"  of  Cagliari,  which  is 
awaiting  a  third  division,  will  reinforce 
the  two  divisions  already  sent,  so  that  the 
contingents  of  Italian  troops  sent  to 
Abyssinia  will  amount  in  a  few  days  to 
120,000  to  130,000  men,  including  the  mil- 
itia and  the  Ascari.  This  appears  to  be  in 
accordance  with  the  programme  which 
General  Rodolfo  Graziani  (who  will  prob- 
ably take  charge  of  the  operations  in 
Africa)  got  Mussolini  to  accept  and  which 
he  submitted  as  a  condition  when  he 
took  over  the  position  of  governor  and 
commander  of  the  troops  in  Somaliland. 
On  the  basis  of  this  programme  Mussolini 
is  said  to  have  pledged  himself  to  send 
500,000  troops  to  East  Africa  by  Sep- 
tember. 

A  united  command  has  been  appointed 
for  the  whole  of  the  Italian  forces  In  Af- 
rica, with  General  De  Bono  as  Command- 
er, General  Cabba  as  Chief  of  the  General 
Staff,  and  General  Cona  as  his  deputy. 

The  direct  negotiations  Iwtween  the 
two  Governments  are  said  to  have  been 
broken  off  by  the  Abyssinian  Government, 
which  does  not  wish  to  be  tricked  by  the 
Italian  Government,  which  is  dragging  out 
the  affair  in  order  to  complete  its  prepara- 
tions for  attack  and  to  avoid  the  inter- 
vention of  the  Leaghc  of  Nations  and  ita 
arbitration,  which  is  persistently  demand- 
ed by  the  Government  of  Addis  Ababa.  In 
order  to  gain  time  the  Italian  Government 
is  multiplying  its  demands.  In  addition  to 
the  compensation  demanded  for  the  Wal- 
Wal,  Aphdub  and  Omager  incidents,  come 
further  "demands  regarding  the  alleged  oc- 
cujAtlon  of  Erithrcan  territory  by  Abyu- 
sihians.  ' 

It  is  obvious  that  the  Italian  Govern- 
ment can  continually  advance  fresh  claims 
until  it  considers  the  moment  suitable  for 
%n_  attack  to  have  arrived.  In  the  same 
way,  .  Italian  imperialist  agents  can  in- 
crease frontier  incidents  at  will. 

A  fresh  symptom  of  the  sharpening  of 
the  situation  in  Africa  is  to  be  seen  in  the 
order  issued  by  the  British  Govemmcnl 
to  all  officials  in  British  Somaliland.  They 
arc  ordered  tjot  to  leave  their  poets  under 
any  circumstances.  At  the  same  time 
troops  are  being  sent  from  Nyasaland  to 
this  colony  and  British  troope  are  bcinj; 
concentrated  in  Kenya  and  Uganda.  Thus 
Britain  is  already  intervening.  But  on  be 
half  of  which  party?  The  telegram  from 
Jibuti  reporting  the  serious  incident  on 
the  British-AbyBsinian  frontier  is  very 
diaturbing.  This  incident  Is  said  to  have 
occurred  in  October,  but  has  been  kept 
secret  until  now,  when  it  has  boon  fol- 
lowed by  further  similar  incidenU.' 

Under  these  circunvstanccg  one  must 
ask  whether  the  League  of  Nations,  which 
is,  to  meet  on  April  15  in  ordor  to  discuss 
the  German  armaraenta,  will  be  aWe  once 
again  to  avoid  intervening  in  the  Abyssin- 
ian conflict. 

No  matter  what  attitude  the  League  of 
Nations  may  adopt  in  this  question,  and 
np  matter  what  may  be  the  attitude  of  the 
BriUsh,  French  and  Italian  Imperialists, 
the  independence  of  the  Abysainian  people 
is  under  the  protection;  of  the  working 
p^ple  of  all  countries  ai)d,  above  all,  of 
y}V  Uftlian  proletariat.

One  of  the  Warrior  squad  even 
broke  a  record,  but  gets  little 
credit  for  the  same,  owing  to  the 
fact  that  he  was  just  a  step  be- 
hind an  opponent,  a'ic  was  Barnes 
Donnelly,  who  chased  Jockum 
Detlefsen  across  the  tape  to  a

Barnes  and  Jockum  smashed  that

the  Pelicans  and  Athen  Elks  will 
be  renewed  in  the  feature  game 
of  tbe  Berkeley  International 
League  Sunday  2  p.  m.  at  San 
Pablo  Park.  This  will  be  a  hard 
fought  combat  aad  a  huge  crowd 


The  Berkeley  Grays  made  a 
game  cfforl  to  crash  the  win  col- 
umn Sunday  at  San  Pablo  Park, 
even  to  a  9th  inning  rally,  but 
fell  short  three  runs  and  the  Peli- 
cans walked  off  with  a  14  to  11 
victory  This  belated  effort  might 
have  been  a  little  more  effective, 
but  relief  hurler  Perry  was  out  at 
l^'*'""  after  hitting  a  homer  with  two 
men  on.  The  chucker  failed  to 
touch  second  and  got  credit  for 
only  a  single  But  for  this  miscue. 
one  cannot  tell  what  might  have  |  ' 
happened  |  | 

Meaddows     went     the     route     for  |  |

1  Mr.  Sutro  is  "OUT" 


READERS'     COT^RESPONDENCE 


WHEN  EFFORTS  TO  COMMUNICATE  with  the 
tuMimger  of  the  Sutro  Baths  we»-e  made  by  The  Spokeartua, 
ToUoiring  that  establishment's  discrimination  agaiust  two 
(faurehwomen  last  week,  Mr.  Sutro  could  not  be  reached. 
Nor  has  the  gentleman  made  any  effort  to  communicate 
Vith  us,  though  our  message  or  telephone  number  was  left 
each  time  he  was  "out" 

On  the  face  of  it.  The  Spokesman  would  be  slow  to 
brand  Sutro  Baths  a  jim  crow  institution,  were  it  not  for 
Hk  fact  that  many  other  cases  of  discrimination  there 
have  been  repoKed.  The  League  of  Struggle  for  Negro 
Rights  has  for  many  months  been  piling  up  cases  of  Ne- 
groes being  refused  entrancje  to  the  baths.  There  must  be  a 
spark  or  two  if  so  much  smoke  belches  from  the  beach 
resort

EDITOR:    We    are    fully    In    ac 
cord    with   your   comment    on    th> 


But  sometime  this  month  a  Negro  organization  wUl 
have  an  outing  for  its  members.  In  all  fairness  to  the  or- 1  it^umenui  in  rushing  the  same 
ganization,  it  probably  secured  tbe  date  and  signed  the  con- 1  through 
tract  before  this  last  case  of  discrimination  flared  up. 
Therefore,  it  finds  itself  in  a  dilemma:  if  it  carries  out  its 
agreement,  it  will  be  practicing  self -jim  crowism;  on  the 
(jther  hand,  if  it  does  not  carry  out  its  agreement,  it  will 
lose  its  deposit. 

Whatever  this  organization  does  is  a  matter  it  alone 
win  have  to  decide.  If  it  feels  that  principle  is  of  less  im- 
portance-than  money,  let  it  go  ahead  with  the  outiag. 

But  the  embarrassment  of  this  organization  should  be 
a  warning  to  others.  It  is  not  the  only  one  caught  in  such 
&  situation.  There  are  cases — and  plenty  of  them — of  clubs 
and  churches  deliberately  asking  for  a  jim  crow  day  at  es- 


I  have  secured  a  t>oost  in  my 
work  upon  the  reaigning  of  one 
of  the  employees,  and  I  feel  that 
I  have  qiade  good. 

I  sincerely  wish  your  efforts 
will  be  rewarded  by  the  citizens 
of  the  bay  regelon  and  that  you 
will  meet  with  future  success.

Down  on  the  EmburraderOi  fcdr 
instance,  there  are  three  or  four 
Negro  longshoremen  who  have 
failed  to  grasp  the  principles  un- 
derlying the  General  Strike  and 
know  nothing  at  all  of  how,  why, 
and' wherefore  they  get  their  jobs. 
Anyone  seeing  them  at  work 
wouldr;thlHk  they  would  rather  be 
iim-crowed  in  an  all-Negro  gang 
than  working  beside  white  steve- 
dores. These  fellows  do  every- 
thing they  can  to  make  it  un- 
pleasant for  their  wliite  com- 
rades. They  shirk  the  heavier 
loads,  fall  to  offer  help  when 
needed,  soldier  on  the  Job,  and 
actually  try  to  pick  fights  about 
petty   matters.

ination 

The  Negro  peoi^e  of-  the  Bay  Cities  ought  to  decide, 
once  and  for  all,  whether  they  will  take  the  crumby  thrown 
fro  rathe  table,  or  whether  they  will  fling  these  cnunbs 
back  in  the  face  of  their  donor  and  demand  a  whole  loaf  of 
bread.  You  can  be  sure  that  as  long  as  you  truckle  and 
drool  for  a  crumb,  that's  all  you'll  ever  get. 

The  fight  against  discrimination  is  a  continuous  one. 
It  is  bound  to  be  bitter  and  relentless.  It  will  pay  few  re- 
wards other  than  self-respect — a  reward  admittedly  un- 
popular in  this  day  of  a  cash-register  religion  and  philoso- 
phy. But  the  fight  must  be  continued,  else  black  men  will 
lose  what  vestige  of  honor  remains. 


NEEDED— A  NA'HONAL  NEGRO  CONGRESS 

FOR  DECADES  NOW  we  have  been  talking  of  the 
need  for  a  national  meeting  in  which  our  special  problems 
could  be  thrashed  out  Last  week  some  250  representa- 
tives of  every  walk  of  life  and  every  important  organiza- 
tum  met  in  Washington  imder  the  auspices  of  the  Joint 
Committee  on  National  Recovery  and  the  Social  Science 
group  of  Howard  University.  They  discussed  the  "Position 
of  the  Negro  in  the  Present  Ekionomic  Crisis."  They  en- 
tlorsed  the  call  for  a  National  Congress,  which  will  attempt 
to  wprk  out  a  definite  program  of  action  for  the  N«gro 
people    in    America. 

At  first  thought,  many  of  us  may  exclaim,  "Just  an- 
other talk-fest,  at  which  everything  ipder  the  sun  will  be 
said  and  nothing  done."  Certain  aspects  pf  the  recent  con- 
ference, however,  indicate  that  this  time  something  will  be 
dooe.  i 

In  the  first  place,  a  candid  examination  and  report  of 
facts  leaves  no  doubt  of  where  the  Negro  stands  in  Ameri- 
ca today.  Statistics  included  these:  "about  50  per  cent  of 
the  Negro  workiBg  population  is  unemployed  (as  cran pared 
with  20  or  25  per  cent  white).  Despite  discrimination 
against  them  in  graoting  relief,  30  per  cent  of  Negroes  in 
the  United  States  in  January,  1935,  were  in  families  re- 
ceiving relief,  as  compared  with  17.8  per  cent  in  October 
1933,  when  the  New  Deal  got  under  way.  Relief  for  Ne- 
groes in  ESastenl  and  Western  cotton-growing  regioDs  av- 
erages two  d(rflars  less  than  that  given  to  whites  and  runs 


most  pow- 
erful organized  body  wiebin  the 
race.  It  represents  tbe  .greatest 
investment  of  the  Negro  people, 
and.  apart  from  its  spiritual  func- 
tion, «erves  aa  the  community 
qenter  for  all  *cU^tles  by  the 
group. 

If  young  people  would  get  in 
the  chuDch  and  put  some  pressure 
on  tbe  deacons  and  trustees  and 
preacher,  they  could  have  pro 
grams  that  they  want.  They  could 
almost  force  the  preacher  to  pre- 
pare himself  and  preach  sermons 
on  subjects  in  which  people  today 
ofe  interested.  They  could  build 
up  the  church  to- serve  the  people 
aa  a  great  educational  and  recre- 
uUon^l    ceo^r. 

If  The  SpoKesman  should  carry 
a  series  of  editorials  on  tifls  mat- 
ter I  am  sure  it  would  be  ren- 
dering a  valuable  service  to  Its 
readers  and  tbe  eommunlty.~Tbe

EDITOR:       Besides      being 
world's     "champeen     Jiners," 
folks     also     hold     the     record 
tardiness.   Not   for   nothing   has   C. 
P.     T.     (Colored     People's     Time) 
come     to     be     used    synonymously 
with    lateneses. 

Blame  for  this  lies  usually  with 
the  promoters  of  programs  and 
meetings.  For  some  reason  or 
Other,  these  people  find  it  neces- 
sary to  have  a  thousand-aod-one 
mediocre  artists  before  the  main 
attraction,  whatever  that  is.  Af- 
ter listening  to  little  Willie  toot 
on  the  saxophone  and  Mrs. 
Bcreechum  yell  sentimentally  and 
tearfully  about  the  trees  and  the 
grass  and  the  bees  and  the  but- 
terflies, an  audience  |s  hardly  in 
the  mood  to  get  down  to  brass 
tgcks   with   an    able   speaker. 

Then,  able  speakers  seem  to  be 
as  rare  as  hen  teeth.  If  a  man 
has  a  Reverend  or  a  Doctor  be- 
fore his  name,  the  meeting  chair-

Rev.  and  Mrs.  H.  L.  Brlnson  of

per  cent  of  tbe  po|nilation.  Unemployment  for  Negro  males 
is  29  per  cent  higher  than  unemployment  for  the  total  male 
population." 

Ip  the  second  {Hace,  the  conference  heard  and  rejected 
the  opinions  of  the  obstructionists  and  stand-patters  who 
have  so  long  stood  in  the  way  of  Negro  progress.  KeUy 
loner,  grand-daddy  of  the  Uncle  Toms,  declaimed  against 
working  for  progress  through  any  other  channels  tten 
"the  constitution,  democracy,  and  Christianity."  Dr.  W.  E. 
B.  DuBois,  ex-mOitant  but  now  a  back-slider,  advocated 
self  sfgi'^ation.  In  the  words  of  an  observer,  he  beUeves 
"the  Negro  race  is  to  leave  the  white  race  floundering  in 
the  whiripool  of  the  present-day  crisis  and  seek  its  own 
aalratkm  in' a  hUek  society  (existing  within  the  framework 
ttt  oi|r  preaeBt  Metal  order)."  In  sharp  contrast  to  these 
prmdaaeutM  tit  dooOity  and  resignation,  the  majority  of 
the  iftealters  at  the  conference  admitted  that  there  is  no 
sahlHon  fe  the  Negro  problem  within  the  present  econoquc 
agmtMB.  Thejr  were  united  in  the  declaration  that  dowa- 
ttodytt  Negroes  must  fight  the  present  situation  shoulder

l><ar  .Mr.   .Vf.i^rudcr: 

At  the  ouissd't,  Ut  ti.s  dt'daro  that  the  jjurpo.se  of  this 
letter  i.s  neither  to  attark  yoti  as  a  (xTson  nor  to  undermine 
the  go<Kl  work  you  have  done  during  your  f>asturate  of 
,  First  A.  M.  K.  Zion  Church.  Ff.r  that  work.  The  Rixikesmau 
has  deep  re3|)ect.  For  you  ]ioiw>na!ly,  we  have  the  warmest 
regard  and   most   cjrdial    feeling. 

Itiit  the  time  has  eome  when  The  Spokesman  ran  no 
longer  ri-niuin  I0y.1l  Ij  the  |)rinri|)lt-s  und  interests  of  its 
readers,  und  relrain  iroin  (|iiesliijiilng  some  of  the  a^-tivi- 
lies  in  which  ymt  are  latels  eii);u;;ing.  S|M-('if ieail,\ ,  Me 
refer  to  the  indiMir  pienie  at  Sutro  I'utlis  this  roming 
Tuesday. 

According  to  all  the  informatk/n  thii;  newspaper  can 
t;ather,  Sutro  Baths  is  a  JIM  CROW  establishment.  In 
lither  words,  Negrries  are  u.<<ually  refused  admittance  to  the 
hatha.  No  matter  what  rea.s<in  nr  excuse  the  management 
c.ffers  for  its  diseriminatory  ])Olicy,  the  fact  remain.s  that 
in  the  treatment  of  Negro  eitiwn.;  ff  San  Francisio,  the 
baths  may  jis  well  be  l<>cated  in  "ilie  bfjwels  of  Dixie. 

With  the  full  knowledge  of  this  Jim  Crow  policy  of  the 
management,  Mr.  Magruder.  you,  as  |>astor  of  a  Nei^ro 
church,  a.s  a  director  of  the  N'.  A.  A.  C.  P..  a.s  a  functionary 
of  the  A.  M.  K.  Zitn  denomination,  as  a  fraternal  leader, 
and  accordingly  as  an  influential  ivjiresentalive  of  the  Ne- 
gro people  of  San  Francisco — you,  Mr.  Magruder,  CON- 
TRACTED WITH  THAT  MANAr-.EME.NT  FOR  A  Jl.M 
CROW  DAY  I-X)K  NKXJROF^^  AT  THE  BATHS! 

Do  you  know,  Kevorend  Sir,  what  this  means  to  your 
reputation  and  s«.lf-rcs[)oct  ^  Do  you  know  what  it  means 
to  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.?  Dfj  you  realize  its  significance  to  the 


A.  M.  E.  Zion  denomination,  to  the  religious  and  fraternal 
people  who  look  to  you  for  leadership,  to  the  Negro  people 
of  San  Franci.sco  who  trust  you  with  the  guardianship  of 
their  libirties?  Do  you  really  know  the  signifieance  of 
what  you  have  done,  Mr.  Magruder?  If  not  we'll  tell  you. 
By  contnuting  for  a  Jini  Crow  day  at  Sutro  UuthH 
you   have  done  thewe  three   things: 

1. — Vou  have  misrepresented  the  N.  A.  .\.  C.  P.,  and 
repudiated  the  prineiple««  for  which  that  organization  has 
been  fighting  during  Itit  entire  lifetime,  namelv,  defease  of 
Ihe  civil  rights  of  the  Negro.  Kvery  sHf-respi-cting  Negro 
knows  through  insult  and  humiliatiou  how  drsiierate  is  that 
tight,  bow  much  its  cost  In  time  and  energy  and  money, 
how  Important  it  is  to  preserve  the  gains  already  achieved. 
^>t  the  tnill  of  thread  that  has  i-e<|uired  years  of  |)atient 
coiling  to  wind  in  place  by  a  simple  slip  can  uiuviud  itself 
hnd  tangle  in  a  thousand  knots.  Vou  made  that  sKp,  Mr. 
.'^lagrufier. 

2. — You  have  betrayetl  the  confidence  of  thr  Negro 
i»eople  of  San  f'ranelsco,  who  looked  to  you  as  a  man  of 
influence  and  responsil>ility  to  guard  their  iiberlles.  How 
now  can  any  self-respecting  .N'egro  dare  to  show  his  face 
near  Sutro  Baths,  after  having  thus  been  stigmi^ized  by 
his  leader's  servile  acccijtanci-  of  an  inferior  status?  And 
what  guarantee  is  there  that  other  places  of  public  accom- 
modation, observing  the  ease  with  which  Jim  Crowism  is 
thrust  down  the  throats  of  the  Negro  ix*ople,  will  not  in- 
augurate a  similar  policy?  What  assurance  now  lias  any 
Negro  San  Franciscan  that  eating  places,  hotels,  theaters — 
even  schools — will  not  order  him  to  "Wait  until  our  special 
Negro  Day?"  How  do  you  know  but  that  that  Ne^ro  will 
be  you,  or  one  of  your  loved  ones,  Mr.  Magruder? 

3. — You  have  surrendered  the  gauntlet  of  the  Christ- 
ian Church,  of  the  A.  .M.  K.  /ion  denomination,  and  of  the 
fraternal   orders   which   nmcar  allegiance   to    the   Christian

ideals  of  ju.ttire  and  the  hrotlierhood  of  man.  There  is  no 
record  of  Christ  ever  compromising  with  the  forces  of  evil. 
How  then  can  you,  a  Christian  minister,  reconcile  your 
compronii.se  with  Jim  Crowism  with  your  profession  as  a 
teacher  of  Christianity? 

Thest-  questions,  Reverend  .Sir,  you  will  have  to  an- 
swer. If  you  refuse,  you  will  tallou.sly  thiow  a  measure  of 
the  blame  on  the  people  you  have  misrepresented  and  be- 
trayed. You  will  force  every  member  of  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P. 
to  explain  and  aj»ologize  for  you.  You  will  compel  every 
Negro  citizen  of  San  Francisco  to  accept  partial  responsi- 
bility for  ALL-NEGRO  DAY  AT  THE  BATHS.   You  wil"; 

require  the  trustees  and  officers  of  your  lodge,   your  de-     j  to  show  that  the  aiiegad  injury 
nomination,  and  your  church  to  commit  themselves,  too,  t£     vas  very  probably  inflicted  by  a 
Ihis  act  of  SEI.F-JIM  CROWISM   AND  SELF-HUMTUA 
TION. 

One  thing  more:  what  ivill  tx-  your  future  poUcy  re 
garding  this  matter?  If  you  make  money  at  the  baths  or 
.Mi-Negro  Day,  will  you  contract  with  the  management 
lor  another  AII-.Negro  Day?  In  other  words,  have  you,  01 
huv«  you  not,  definitely  aligned  yourself  with  the  enemle; 
of  the  Negro,  with  the  forces  which  keep  him  separatee 
from  other  Americans  and  thus  exploit  and  persecute  him". 

On  your  answer  to  this  last  question,  Sir,  depends  the 
relations    between    yourselef    and    The    Spokesman.    This 

newspaper  declares  open  warfare  on  every  person,  institu 

.  ...  ,  ......  ,,  Jf    which    have    come    rumors    of

right,  startled  in  the  barracks. 
'  When  the  33  boys  sought  aid 
it  the  four  comnaanding  officers 
under  a  hail  of  rocks  and  show 
of  firearms  from  the  150  or  more 
white  boys  in  the  Camp,  they  and 
their  possessions  were  hastily  imt 
on  trucks  and  loaded  onto  tbe  5 
a.  m.  train  cut  of  Orlai:<l  annate 
their  homes.  There  four  were  ar- 
rested and  returned  to  Chico  to 
face  charges  preferred  by  Capt. 
Chisholm. 

In  court,  the  Captain  told  of 
ths  boys  running  to  him  for  pro- 
tection and  of  the  b.arrage  of 
rocks  from  Barracks  4  (all  whital 
hat  fell  around  him  and  t)>em  aa 
hey  rcsi'ued  four  of  their  nunibor 
mprisoned    in    the    washroqm. 

He  claimed   however,  that  one  of 

he    four    stabbed    him    just., under 

he    eye    with    a    pocket    k«ife    aa 

hey     ran     from     Ihe     beleajfuered

No  injury  or  sign  of  one  waa 
apparent,  and  he  admitie4 ,  that 
he  had  no  medical  attenliof^  nor 
did  he  leave  the  scene  of  the  sup- 
posed   assault. 

He     told     of     th«     boys     bezgipg 
him  to  intercede  for  Ihe  four  bojra  . 
locked     in     the     room    and     their 
cries    of    "Help!    They    ithe    white 
boys)    are    killing    them!  ' 

Following  his  presentation  of 
the  case,  a  move  for  dismissal  of 
the  charges  was  made,  bi't  re- 
fused when  the  prosecution 
claimed  that  they  had  14  mare 
witnesses  to  testify  to  tbe  allaged

of  Jack  Watkins  as  "Anthony,"  ■ 
Angelesta  Renn  as  "Mrs.  Cracken-

very  alow  tempo,  but  speeded  up 
with  the  enrance  of  "Jimmy," 
portrayed  so  excellently  by  Wil-

Mr  R  Asian  c.  dramatic  critic. 
"I  expected  to  witness  a  rather 
bori-sh  portrayal  of  a  very  diffi-

'  On  every  hand  the  Deltas  are 
being  shuurrcd  with  compliments.

STATE  UBkARY 


urns  FiDIONT  BALDWIN 


p# 


*;•  SUNDAY,  THE  HEART  of  Louis  Fre- 
(j^bbt  Baldwin  stopped.  No  more  will  the 
Jpttle  old  man  with  the  long  white  hair 
watt  at  the  Ray  Cities'  black  resitectabil- 
t^.  In  the  twinkling  of  an  eye,  death 
dtetchod  him  from  their  midst.  But  mortal 
'flmth  cannot  take  nor  touch  the  ideas  for 
4Jdch  be  stood. 

''  It  might  not  be  fair  to  those  respecta- 
Ue  ones  to  say  that  they  are  glad  old 
Baldwin  is  dead.  In  their  memories,  the 
man  should  never  die.  EXren  a  vicious  man 
iiwpires  in  some  breast  a  spark  of  affec- 
tion, and  Mr.  Baldwin  was  far  from  being 
Vicious.  He  was  one  of  the  kindliest,  most 
intelligent  men  this  writer  has  ever 
known. 

Dteiiliisionment  Explains  Character 

We  cannot  measure  Mr.  Baldwin's  life 
by  the  yardstick  of  "success."  Indeed,  in 
its  very  failure  did  it  succeed  in  establish- 
inf  the  man's  character  and  in  shaping 
tbe  outlines  of  his  personality.  »• 

Louis  Frem6nt  Baldwin  began  life  with 
high  aspirations  and  a  respectable  back- 
ground. Therein  lay  the  contradiction.  The 
m«^"%8pe<!table  he  became,  the  less  re- 
spect he  received.  He  acquired  learning, 
money,  influence,  prestige.  But  he  encoun- 
tered the  color  l^r.  This  was  disillusion- 
BMot  nnmber  one:  the  best  equipped,  most 
enUnrad  Negro  is  subject  to  the  same  in- 
digiilties  and  proscriptions  as  the  rudest, 
most  untutored  Negro. 

Then  began  Mr.  Baldwin's  life-long 
fight  against  the  color  bar.  With  the  late 
Monroe  Trotter  he  began  a  campaign  to 
rid  Boston  of  race  discrimination  against 
respectable  Negroes.  Therein  lay  another 
contradiction.  Respectable  Negroes  did  not 
wish  to  be  rid  of  racial  discrimination. 
ITiey  practiced  self-segregation.  They 
■wallowed  insult  without  protest.  They 
lidced  the  boots  of  their  persecutors.  They 
accepted  greedily  the  crumbs  brushed 
fr  om  the  table  of  their  masters.  They 
betrayed  their  own  people.  They  were 
rtupid,  shiftless,  spineless.  This  was  dlsll- 
lasiomiient  number  two:  the  most  socially 
advaaoed  Negroes,  either  by  using  it  to 
UmIt  own  advantage,  or  by  submitting  to 
H  wtthoat  opposition,  or  by  compromising 
With  it  for  the  sake  of  "peace,"  actually 
Biaintain  ^e  color  bar. 
'  '  Mr.  Baldwin  would  do  none  oi  these 
things.  He  had  too  much  honor  to  use 
segregation  for  personal  profit,  too  much 
aaanhood  to  accept  discrimination  unop- 
Ptmed,  too  much  intelligence  to  agree  to  a 
compromise  wtiich  left  the  basic  inequali- 
ties unchanged. 

The  Flight  to  CaUfomia 

What  could  he  do?  His  education  had 
been  purchased  dearly.  Its  price  had  been 
bis  youth  and  money  and  influence  and 
prestige.  He  had  become  an  old  'man, 
friendless  and — as  far  as  Negfroes  were 
concerned — without  hope.  He  was  an  out- 
XSSt,  socially  disinherited.  So  he  fled. 

The  flight  of  Mr.  Baldwin  to  Califor- 
nia, to  Aatro^agy  and  Yogi  Philosophy,  to 
the  occasional  simulation  of  Hindu  iden- 
tity, to  the  affectation  of  eccentricities — 
thmr  acta  of  running  away  are  the  most 
vulnerable  linlcs  in  the  chain  of  habits  that 
composed  his  character.  Even  so,  in  his 
defense  it  may  be  said  that  he  preferred 
the  lesser  dishonor  of  retreat  to  the  great- 
er shame  of  defeat,  surrender,  or  treach- 
•ry.  He  ran  away  from  the  enemy,  paus- 
ing now  and  again  in  his  flight  to  fire  a 
{farting  shot,  or  to  castigate  those  mem- 
bers of  his  own  ranks  who  forsook  tilm  on 
the  field  of  battle. 

Mr.  Baldwin's  career  In  the  Bay  Cities 
is  one  of  just  such  parting  shots  and  cas- 
^jlgations.  His  letters  to  the  daily  and 
%eekly  newspapers,  protesting  insults  and 
abuses  against  his  people,  were  read  by 
tboosands  of  Califomians.  His  speeches, 
^Hien^t'er  lie  had  the  opportunity,  always 
%pM^4ed  and  championed  the  poor  Negrd. 

Lived  Two  Generations  Too  Early 
<'■■  Never  did  he  fall  to  lash  with  his  gift- 
fd  tongue  those  respectable  Negroes 
^ifliom  he  piought  to  be  cowards  and  hypo- 
^tea.  \Aud  they,  in  confused  desperation. 
«ilagbt  to  retaUate  by  ostracizing  him,  by 

el  at   his  long   white   hair,   by   im- 
g  his  sanity.  But  old  Mr.  Baldwin 
vigorously   and    proudly   on.    And 
^ilwn  dea^  suddenly  confronted  him,  he 

Et  along   without   equivocation   or  ex- 
!,   wltbout    having    retreated    a    single 

'lieb. 

'-  Louis  FVemont  Baldwin  lived  before 
^  time.  Were  be  twenty-five  today,  with 
mt  dear  perception  and  virile  spirit,  his 
4JPs  WNiId  be  eminently  effective.  For  side 
ttf  Me  with  him,  fitting  together  the 
l^he  bar  and  all  those  forces  and  people 
tr^tmfain  it,  would  be  thousands  and 
of  younf  men  and  women  with 
perieptioB  Md  virile  spirit:  young 
Wfio  will  Oilther  accept  defeat,  nor 
^  ^  ",  aor  compromise;  young  people 
]^  mtm  who  will  not  rest  until  Uie 


color  bar  and  tfie  tottering  superstructure 
of  inequality  and  injustice  which  supports 
it  is  sent  crumbling  to  oblivion;  young 
people  who  Are  resolved  to  build  a  better 
world. 

Ijft  tho.".e  who  knew  him  remember: 
This  prim  resolve  and  mighty  dream  was 

once  vujced  by  Louis  Fremont  Baldwin. 

•       •       •       •       • 

If  any  group  of  people  can  be  picked 
out  and  segregated  and  made  helpless, 
there  is  an  excuse  for  pacing  them  lower 
wages. 


Herndon  and  You 

LEST  YOU  BELIEVE,  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Public,  that  the  fate  of  Angelo  Herndon 
has  nothing  to  do  with  your  position  in 
society,  and  that  whatever  you  do  to  help 
win  a  re-hearing  for  him  is  simply  your 
pious  deed  for  the  month,  it  will  be  well 
for  you  to  think  about  this  Herndon  case 
more  seriously.  It's  a  danger  signal  to  you, 
and  if  you're  not  a  fool,  you'll  pause  and 
consider. 

Public  mass  meetings  in  the  Bay  Cities 
arc  planned  for  next  week  to  solicit  your 
support  in  the  Herndon  Case.  The  Social- 
ist Party,  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.,  the  Urban' 
League,  the  Southern  Inter-racial  Commis- 
sion, and  numerous  other  organizations 
have  come  to  the  aid  of  the  International 
Labor  Defense  in  urging  the  Supreme 
Court  to  re-consider  the  case.  Surely  all 
these  organizations  would  not  join  hands 
on  this  issue  unless  it  portended  some- 
thing vitally  important  to  you. 
The  Dest      tion  of  Democratic  Liberties 

The  fact  of  the  matter  is  that  Hem- 
don's  sentence  and  the  refusal  of  the  Su- 
preme Court  to  pass  on  the  merits  of  the 
case  epitomize  everything  the  American 
people  have  learned  through  suffering  to 
hate  and  fear. 

In  the  first  place,  the  case  is  an  exam- 
ple of  that  use  of  force  and  law  which  the 
Fathers  of  the  Republic  so  dreaded  and 
intended  to  provide  against  when  they 
wrote  the  Constitution  of  the  United 
States,  namely,  the  dictatorship  of  an  oli- 
garchy. 

This  dictatorship  of  the  Georgia  indus- 
trialists, ■  bankers,  and  rich  property-own- 
ers is  plainly  revealed  by  the  whole  Hern- 
don case,  from  the  boy's  arrest  to  his  con- 
viction and  sentence.  Hemdon's  crime  was 
simply  that  of  ot^anizing  laborers  and 
jobless  persons  on  relief.  In  June,  1932, 
when  the  state  closed  down  all  relief  sta- 
tions in  Georgia,  Herndon,  through  his 
leadership  of  the  Unemployment  Council, 
mobilized  1000  laborers,  600  of  them 
white,  and  marched  in  protest  upon  the 
Fulton  County  Courthouse.  The  next  day 
the  officials  appropriated  $6,000  for  job- 
less relief. 

Money  Interests  Usurp  State  Power 

For  his  part  in  the  affair,  Herndon 
was  arrested,  tried,  convicted,  and  sen- 
tenced to  twenty  years  on  the  chain-gang. 
The  collusion  between  police  and  courts  on 
the  one  hand,  and  the  monied  interests  on 
the  other,  is  plain.  Herndon  represented 
the  majority;  his  persecutors,  a  small 
minority.  This  is  nothing  less  than. dicta- 
torship of  an  oligarchy,  using  force  and 
law  to  attack  the  leadership  of  the  desti- 
tute majority  and  thus  continue  oppress- 
ing them.  This  was  not  a  far'ste^  £rqm 
using  these  instrthnents  of  state  power 
both  to  press  Negroes  down  into  the  gut- 
ter and  to  punish  them  for  attempting  to 
rise. 

In  the  second  place,  the  refusal  of  the 
Supreme  Court  to  judge  the  issues  of  the 
Herndon  case  is  an  example  of  the  hypo- 
crisy with  which  justice  in  this  country 
is  evaded.  The  Nine  Old  Men  realixed  the 
portent  of  the  case  for  115  million  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Joe  Public.  But  they  "clutched 
at  the  straw  of  a  false  technicality"  and 
ignored  the  issues.  Those  Fathers  of  the 
Republic  must  have  turned  over  in  their 
graves  at  this!  It  clearly  meant  that  even 
their  brightest  brain-child,  the  highest 
guardian  of  justice,  had  fallen  into  evil 
ways  and  the  hands  of  the  minority.  It 
meant,  too,  that  democracy  was  now  be- 
ing openly  discarded  in  favor  of  subvers- 
ive and  tyrannical  forms  of  government. 

A  Warning  to  Every  Wage- Earner 

The  Herndon  case  is  a  warning  to  you, 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  American!  It  foretells  the 
imminent  menace  of  Fascism  in  the  Unit- 
ed States.  Fascism  is  no  more  nor  less 
than  dictatorship  of  an  oligarchy  of  in- 
dustrialists, bankers,  and  rich  land-own- 
ers. And  when  it  conies,  every  mother's 
Son  and  daughter  of  you  will  suffer. 

If  victory  is  to  be  achieved,  the  Su- 
preme Court  must  now  be  pressed  and 
harassed  unceasingly  by  the  protests  of 
millions.  A  word  in  behalf  of  Herndon  is  a 
word  in  behalf  of  yourself,  your  children, 
your  democratic  liberties.  Attend  the 
Herndon  mass  meetings!  Wire  your  pro- 
teat  to  Washington!

ALL    LABOKINU    PEOPLE    TO 
FORM  NEW   POLTTICAL 
PARTY  _^ 

EDITOR:  There  Is  a  decided 
movement  on  foot  both  in  San 
Francisco  and  the  East  Bay  to 
form  a  Labor  Party— built  from 
the  bottom  up.  Trade  Unions, 
Epic,  Utopian,  Townsend  Clubs, 
and  any  or  all  of  the  other  small 
liberal  groups  who  will  join  in  a 
broad  mass  Labor  Party  will 
elect  delegates  to  the  conferences 
to  be  held  late  this  summer,  at 
which  time  a  program  will  be 
drawn  up.  It  will  be  a  program 
acceptable  to  the  majority  of  del- 
egates, .therefore  necessarily  one 
of   Immediate   demands. 

This  sentiment  for  one  honest 
political  party  is  showing  itself 
all  over  the  country.  In  Patterson, 
New  Jersey,  several  unions  have 
gone  on  record  favoring  a  Labor 
Party.  This  has  occurred  also  and 
in  several  other  localities  that'  I 
know  of. 


great  evidence,  one  thonght  they 
were  In  the  "Old  Country"  where 
these  customs  originated,  mind 
you  this  was  the  first  time  one  of 
"Our  Children"  had  this  oppor- 
tunity of  bein^  queen,  and  not 
one  word  of  it  was  seen  in  the 
paper  that  we  Just  can't  wait  to 
receive. 

If,  however  on  May  2  IMS, 
there  had  been  a  razor  -  drill, 
knockdown  and  dragout  at 
Franklin  Hall,  there  would  have 
been  Headlines.  "How  coma?" — 
Anna    Foster. 

The  Spokf^niui  'would  have 
gladly  given  headUnea  to  rhOd 
story  if  Mm.  Poaler  had  given 
us  Up.  Not  having  th«  reaoufoea 
of  the  Examiner,  we  depend  On 
reader  cooperation  (br  m'Uffh 
news. — The   Editor. 


However,  In  regard  to  your  edi- 
torial on  asserted  ]im  crowism  at 
Sutro  Baths,  I  think  all  self- 
resi>«cting  Negroes  should  see  the 
matter  as  you  do.  Any  consent  of 
a  Negro  organisation  to  such  an 
arrangement  as  you  describe, 
whether  it  be  a  swim  meet,  a 
picnic,  a  roller  skate,  or  what  not 
is  a  tacit  Agreement  to  such  Jim 
crowism— as  you  state  In  this 
particular   case. 

Personally  I  hav*  gone  swim- 
mlngi  there  alone  and  with  Cau- 
cAalans,  and  entered  unhindered 
and  unquestioned.  Without  any 
difficulty  at  all,  I  couM  pass  for 
colored  anywhere.  Therefore  I 
think  the  discrimination  not  a 
matter  of  prejudice  on  the  part 
of  the  management,  but  a  fear  of 
prejudice  on  the  part  of  the  pa- 
trons: which  appears  to  be  on  the 
face  of  it  a  quibbling  distinction— 
yet,  is  it?  I  may  be  wrong.— Wes- 
ley Williams.  Jr. 


Socfety  Notes 


There  is  therefore  the  possibility    ^j^^   J^^J^^   HoMe   IN 


of  a  National  Labor  Party — based 
on  the  rank  and  file— following  u 
program  and  not  an  individual. 
Until  that  time  a  strong  fighting 
L.abor  Party, — evpn  if  confined  to 
the  Bay  District,  could  be  effect- 
ive (a)  in  repealing  the  anti- 
labor  city  and  county  ordinances 
(antl-picketing,  etc.)  (b)  in  get- 
ting relief  administration  in  the 
hands  of  the  workers  (c)  in  as- 
suring united  mass  action  in  all 
of    labor's    local    battles. 

In  Unity  there  is  strength— the 
only  hope  of  the  workers  is  to 
unite  before  the  mowing  machine 
of  wage-cutting  is  upon  us.  I 
should  like  to  see  you  give  us 
some  news  of  what  is  happening 
in  this  very  commendable  effort 
to  unify  the  forces  of  Labor.— C.

RECEIVES    OOLUDOE    DEGREE 

Miss  Audrey  Bishop,  daughter 
of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Louis  Bishop  of 
Hollister,  received  ber  college  de- 
gree of  Anociated  Arts  on  last 
Friday  evening  from  the  Holltster 
Junior  College.  She  is  the  first 
race     student     to     graduate     from 


the  Problem  facing  tlie  Negro  and 
the  Jew."  Instead,  the  honorable 
judge  gave  a  rambling  diiicourHe 
about  everything  under  God's 
name  except  the  subject  he  hud 
been   expected    to   give.  | 

He    began    with    the    NRA    decis- 
ion  and   ended    with   u   lot    of   fiiit- 
lery    for   John    Pittniun,    editor    of 
The   Spokesman,   which    wu.s   obvi- 
ously    calculated      to     make     Mr. 
Piltman   feel   obligated    to    the   ex-  | 
tent     of     reciprocating     aomelime, 
somewhere,      somehow.      After      he 
had    finished    bis   meandering   way 
through    jurisprudence,    philosophy, 
political    science,    economics,    hialo- 
ry.      psychology,      physics,      and      a  i 
dozen  or  so  of  the  other  arts  and 
sciences,  the  audience  gave   him   a 
big  hand,  and   the    "Juniors"   pres-  i 
ent  indulged  in  one  of  the  sorriest  I 
exhibitions    of    Negro    inluntilism    I 
have    ever    witnessed 

The  rea.son  Judge  Luzurus  didn't 
prepare  was  becuuHC  he  knew  he 
could  gel  by  withuut  prepiiriiig. 
He  knew  that  bo  matter  how 
miserable  wus  his  speech,  the  Ne- 
groes wouldn't  have  sense  ensugh 
to  resent  this  luck  of  preiiantlion 
as  a  reflection  on  their  mtelli- 
gence.  He  wa.s  right.  They  clapped 
and  applauded  as  if  his  speech 
had  been  a  model  one.  He  got 
away  with  murder-  murder  of 
English  and  the  cuurtCNy  due  ev- 
ery  audience. 

As  long  as  we  permit  men  to 
come  to  us,  say  nothing,  and  yet 
give  them  our  approval,  ju.st  that 
long  will  we  get  nothing.  We 
should  have  "booeu "  the  judge.  He 
might  not  have  liked  it,  but  next 
time  he  would  have  pre|icured. 
And  every  time  that  bunch  of 
children  arose  to  give  raucous 
"college  cheers"  we  should  have 
begun  throwing  mud-pies  and  to- 
matoes at  the  people  who  brought 
them  there.  Xfter  all,  what  was 
the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  meeting?  A 
race  riot  or  a  barn  dance?  It 
might  have  been  euher.  It  certain- 
ly was  not  the  impressive,  digni- 
fied, constructive  meeting  a 
stranger  to  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  I*,  i 
might    have    expected.-  W.    W. 

THINKS    GOOD    BEHAVIOR 
OF    NEGROEM    WILL    END 
RACIAL    DLSC'RIMINATION 

EDITOR:  Zion  Church  seems  to 
be  the  target  for  much  unfair 
criticism  regarding  their  beach 
party  at  Sutro  Baths.  Can  we 
break  down  Jim  Crowism  by  sit-  , 
ting  back  saying,  "We  can't  get  | 
in   places  so  we  won't  try"?  I 

It  seems  to  me  the  best  way  to 
break  down  the.se  barriers  is  by 
mass  co-operation  and  show  our 
Nordic  friends  that  we  can  be 
just  as  well  behaved,  take  just  as  I 
good  care  of  their  property  as 
anyone  else,  and  we  must  be  ad-  \ 
mitted.  I 

Whatever  any  of  our  churches 
do,  I'm  sure  It  Is  for  the  good  of 
the  community  spiritually,  socially 
and  financially.  So  if  Zion  choos-  ; 
es  to  be  a  Trail  Blazer,  let  us  as 
public    minded    citizens    give    them

LIKE  SORE  THUMBS  these  facts  in  the  CCC  riot 
case   stand   out: 

1 — The  officers  in  charge  at  Camp  Cohassct  either 
encouraged  the  disorder,  or  were  inccmpetent  to  handle 
it  when  it  began. 

2 — There  is  excellent  evidence  that  the  Negro  boys 
did  not   begin   the  disturbance. 

3 — Not  one  of  the  white  boys  involved  was  even 
disciplined. 

4 — Attorneys  Gordon  and  Richardson,  representing 
the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P..  instead  cf  defending  the  boys  as  they 
were  sent  to  dc,  persuaded  their  clients  td  plead  guilty 
in  exchange  for  suspended  sentences. 

5 — The  burden  of  proof  has  now  been  shifted  from 
the  state  to  the  .33  boys  who  v/ere  ousted,  and  who  now, 
in  order  to  be  re-instated  and  receive  sorely  needed  back 
pay,  must  prove  their  own  innocence. 

6 — The  state  officials  who  have  long  been  advocat- 
ing jim  crow  CCC  camps  now  have  ready  proof  to  offer 
in  substantiation  of  their  claims. 

Thus  is  justice  mocked  in  Chico,  California.  And  thus 
is  the  good  name  of  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  dragged  in  the 
mire  of  dishonor  by  the  police-court  methods  of  counsel 
for  the  "defense." 

How  will  the  members  of  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  reckon 
with  these  men  who  compromise  its  basic  principles?  Will 
they,  too,  contend  that  the  immediate  freedom  of  the 
four  boys  is  of  more  importance  than  the  ultimate  ex- 
posure and  conviction  of  the  guilty  persons?  Will  these 
people  who  have  looked  to  the  N.  A.  A.  0.  P.  as  their 
friend  aod  ^de  agree  with  "counsel  ibr  the  defense" 
that  a  questionable  bargain  with  the  prosecution  is 
more  honorable  than  fighting  for  justice  to  the  very  end? 

The  Spokesman  believes  not.  The  members  of  the 
N.  A.  A.  C.  P..  as  well  as  those  on  the  outside,  are  sick 
of  the  delays  and  excuses  and  white-washings  of  its 
leadership.     ' 

The  Negro  people  of  America  are  sick  of  the  shstm 
and  trickery  with  which  they  are  being  daily  betrayed 
and  defrauded  of  their  rights  as  citizens.  They  are  sick 
of  CCC  cases,  and  of  the  legal  processes  which  allow 
CCC  cases  to  be  gotten  rid  of  so  easily.  Their  temper  is 
rising,  thank  God.  For  only  when  they  meet  the  forces 
attempting  to  destroy  them  with  a  fiercer  struggle  to 
destroy  these  forces  will  they  see  a  new  day.

.NEW  YORK,  June  11.  Black

work  by  Dr.  W.  E.  B.  DuBois  on 
the   part   played   by  colored  Ameri- 

'  cans  in  reorganizing  Southern  so- 
ciety following  the  Civil  War.  was 
unanimously  praised  by  critics  on 
the  big  metropolitan  doilies  here 
Thursday  when  it  was  released. 
Well-documented,  brilliant  and 
devastating  in  Its  arraignment  and 
criticism  of  prejudiced  white  his- 
torians who  for   decades  have  glo- 

I  rifled  the  white  South  at  the  ex- 
pense of  the  Negro,  It  drew  ful- 
.some  commendation  from  critics. 
In  "Black  Reconstruction"  Dr. 
DuBois  is  said  to  be  at  his  l>est 
Every  falsehood,  canard  and  mis- 
representation circulated  by  the 
traducers  of  the  Negro  is  ana- 
lysed, ridiculed  and  demolished  by 
solid  facts  gleaned  from  contem- 
porary documents.  The  entire  role 
of  the  colored  people  in  develop- 
ment of  capitalist  economy  In 
America  and  throughout  the  world 
is  reviewed,  the  actual  status  of 
tbe  white  worker  and  his  relation 
to  the  Negro  from  colonini  days 
to  the  present  la  examined,  and 
the  solid  contributions  of  colored 
people  to  American  civilization 
before  and  following  the  Civil 
War  are  set  forth  In  exqulaite 
prose  and   with  withering   logic.

Barring  inferior  weather,  Joe 
Louis  and  Primo  Camera  will 
clash  in  the  "Battle  of  the  Year" 
at  Yankee  Stadium  next  Tuesday 
night  at  approximately  10  p.  m. 
E.  S.  T.  The  curtain  raiser  is 
scheduled  to  get  under  way  at 
8:13  and  the  show  is  being  staged 
by  the  new  20th  Century  Sporting 
Club,  u  strong  rival  to*  Madison 
Square  GarCena— aqd  a  "pet"  of 
William  Randolph  Hearst,  who 
owns  more  papers  right  now, 
than   I   have   dollars. 

Joe  has  been  going  through  his 
pace.s  at  his  training  camp  at 
Fompton  Lake,  N.  J.  and  is  (It  as 
a  fiddle.  Trainer  Jack  Blackburn 
has  all  but  slept  with  Joe,  and 
with  three  men  in  camp  who  have 
all  boxed  the  giant  Italian,  Louis 
has  some  idea  as  to  what  attack 
the  Man   Mountain   will  use. 

Favored  In  B<4tlng 

According  to  reports  from  bet- 
ling  commissioners  in  N.  Y.,  L^u- 
is  is  the  betting  favorite  by  8  to 
5,  but  we  doubt  seriously  if  that 
will  be  the  case  when  tpt  gents 
step  into  the  ring.  Camera  should 
be  the  favorite,  especially  with 
Billy  Duffy  in  his  corner,  and 
anyoiie  who  takes  the  Detroit 
youngster  and  gives  odds  is  mak- 
ing   a    big    mistake. 

Even  with  his  huge  hulk,  Primo 
is  a  pretty  clever  person  in  the 
ring,    and    his    long    left    hand    is

APOLOGES  DUE! 


TO  DATE,  MR.  MAGRUDER  has  NOT 
replied  to  The  Spokesman's  charges  that, 
by  contracting  for  a  jim  crow  day  at 
Sutro  Oaths,  he  misrepresented  the  N.  A. 
^A.  C.  ^.,  betrayed  the  confidence  of  the 
N^fTO  people,  and  violated  the  canons  of 
Christianity. 

The  reason  lie  has  not  replied  is  ob- 
vkras.  He  has  no  rc^y.  He  knows  the 
facts  are  incontestable  and  the  chargm 
fair.  But  he  prefers  to  remain  silent, 
tnmting  to  the  peofde's  poor  memory  and 
loyalty  to  the  church. 

Mr.  Magruder  errs.  The  cliurch  had 
nothing  to  do  with  contracting  for  a  jim 
crow  day.  Many  members  of  the  church 
deeply  resent  their  pastor's  abuse  of  au- 
thority. Many  people  will  long  remember 
his  failure  to  reply  to  these  charges. 

Yet,  all  he  could  have  said  in  liis  own 
defense  has  been  clearly  and  ably  stated 
By  one  whose  imdeleted  letter  appears 
dver-lhe  signature  of  "Jack  Riley"  in  the 
correspondence  column.  Mr,  Riley's  argu- 
ment may  be  reduced  to  several  proposi- 
tkuiB,  which  The  Spokesman  undertakes 
to  answer  in  the  following  order:  ' 

1 — l^.  RU^_  by  insinuation  accuses 
^  "Die  Spokesman  of  making  a  personal  at- 
fick  oh  a  man  of'^tbrfh  to  his  people  and 
the  community.  We  admit  that  Mr.  Ma- 
gnider  is  CAPABLE  OF  BEING  a  man 
ot  wort|i  to  his  people  and  the  community. 
Bat  his  capabilities  were  employed  in  the 
wrong  direction.  He  was  actually  being  of 
great  worth  to  the  very  people  who  in- 
tend to  keep  Negroes  pressed  to  the  wall. 
Wt  worth  to  the  one  is  in  exact  propor- 
tion to  his  worthleesnesa  to  the  other.  By 
informipg  Negroes  of  this  situation,  we 
koped  they  would  be  persuaded  to  force 
Mr.  Magruder  to  thange  his  tactics.  They 
can,  and  we  believe  they  will. 

The  Spokeamaa  has  no  personal  quar- 
rel with  Mr.  Maniider.  We  would  have 
made  the  same  attack  on  any  other  indi- 
vidual who  did  what  he  did.  Our  charges 
imputed  no  malice  to  the  man.  We  believe 
hia  error  waa  due  to  an  ignorance  of 
facta.  These  facts  are  abundant,  incontro- 
v«rtible.  No  leader  can  afford  not  to  know 
than.  If  Mr.  Magruder  would  lead  cor- 
rectly, be  will  study  these  facts  and  plan 
his  tactics  accordingly. 

2— Mr.  Ril^  asserts  that  where  Ne- 
groes arc  forcefully  segregated  they  are 
materially  better  off.  Mr.  Riley  does  not 
know  tjie  facts.  Only  one  is  sufficient  to

E,DITOR:  I  have  always  ad- 
mired your  franlcneas  and  your 
courageous  sUnd  In  the  defense 
and  propagation  of  certain  Ideals 
and  principles  which  you  believe 
in.  But  this  time,  Sir,  you  have 
arrogantly  attacitcd  a  man  of 
proven  worth  to  his  race  to  the 
community  and  to  the  city  of  San 
Francisco.  A  man  who  has  lat>ored 
unceasingly  and  given  his  service* 
unstfntingly  to  the  welfare  of  the 
people,  spiritually,  morally  and 
economically.  A  man  who  has 
contributed  much  toward  Inter- 
racial      understanding      and      the 


ment    to    the    colored    citizena    of 


racial  dlfMrimlaatlon.  If  one  uncouth  Ne- 
gro abuses  privileges,  by  the  1030  census 

ten  uncouth  white  people  abuse  privileges. 

But  imcouth  white  people  are  not  ordered 

to   ride  in  freight  elevators  m  hotels,  or 

sent  up  alley's  to  theater  "buzzard  roosts," 

or  only  once  a  year  permitted  to  batlie  in 

a  public  bathing  resort  with  a  sign  on  the 

outside  reading  "closed  to  the  public." 
How   can   any   reasoning    mind   escape 

this  logic?  How,  too,  can  it  fail  to  recog- 
nize in  segregation  and  discrimination  the 

age-old  device  of  "divide  and  rule"? 

Jim  cr«wism  and  racial  diNcrimination 

have    their    roots    in    dollars    and    cents. 

They   pay  dividends.   They   divide   people; 

divided    people    are    easily    ruled;     ruled 

people  are  easily  worked;  work  creates 
wealth.  H  any  grouji  of  |>eople  can  be 
picked  out  and  made  helpless,  they  can 
be  charged  exorbitant  rents.  Inferior  com- 
modities can  be  unloaded  on  them.  They 
can  be  forced  to  work  for  low  wages.  And 
their  low  wages  can  be  used  as  a  yard- 
stick with  which  to  measure  the  wages  of 
all  others  who  work. 

4 — Mr.  Riley  asks  why  The  Spokes- 
man dares  not  expose  the  real  enenues  of 
the  race — the  petty  poUticians,  the  fra- 
ternal jackals,  the  vice  in  the  Fillmore  l^"**"'"?  °'^  avenues  of  employ 
district,  the  nationally  known  Negro  mis- 
leaders. 

Does  Mr.  Riley  read  The  Spokesman? 
Indeed,  so  continuous  has  been  our  at- 
tempt to  expose  the  Negroes'  real  ene- 
mies that  we  have  acquired  the  reputation 
of  habitual  knockers.  There  is  hardly  an 
issue  since  this  newspaper  began  which 
docs  not  contain  an  attack  on  the  Negro's 
enemies.  Dig  them  up  and  see  for  your- 
self! 

Furthermore,  The  Spokesman  goes  far 
beyond  a  mere  surface  attack  on  the  Ne- 
gro's real  enemies.  It  attacks  the  founda- 
tion on  which  those  enemies  stand,  the 
entire  social  system  which  breeds  petty 
politicians,  mis-leaders,  and  vice.  In  fact, 
so  zealous  is  It  in  demanding  that  change 
of  society  which  will  give  the  Negro  those 
rights  promised  him  by  the  Constitution 
that  its  policy  has  been  referred  to  as 
Communist! 

And  now  that  we  have  answered  Mr. 
Riley's  letter — we  hope  to  his  satisfaction 
— we  still  insist  that  The  Rev.  E.  J.  Ma- 
gruder, by  contracting  for  a  jim  crow  day 
at  Sutro  Baths,  misrepresented  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.,  betrayed  the  confidence  of  the 
Negro  people,  and  violated  the  canons  of 
Christianity.  To  the  National  Association, 
the  church,  and  the  commimity,  he  owes 
public  apology.  We  hope  he  offers  it. 

•  •       •       •       • 

Negro  reformists  are  one  or  all  of 
three  things:  fools,  liberals,  or  traitors. 
Either  they  do  not  see  the  futility  of  re- 
form, or  their  optimism  blurs  their  vision, 
or  they  preach  reform  for  personal  pro- 
fit

MILD  AS  MUD 


So  many  copies  of  the  pamphlet,  "Re- 
cent Trends  in  Race  Relations,"  have  been 
distributed  by  the  Commission  on  Inter- 
racial Cooperation  from  its  Atlanta  office 
that  the  12-pagc  booklet  has  just  reached 
its  fourth  edition. 

The  document,  written  by  R.  B.  £3ea- 
zer,  a  white  man,  deals  altogether  with 
colored  people  and  their  problems. 

It  recites  that  educational  and  welfare 
conditions  in  the  far  South  have  im- 
proved; so  have  health  conditions,  al- 
though hospitals  are  still  inadequate.  The 
New  Deal,  it  says,  brought  more  gains 
than  losses,  and  justice  in  the  courts  is 
improving. 

On  the  debit  side,  Mr.  Eleazer  lists 
Ijmching,  economic  and  political  losses, 
and  economic  exploitation. 

All  this  he  recites  in  the  tone  one  uses 
in  discussing  the  fourth  dimension  or  the 
probability  of  fair  weather  tomorrow. 

It  isn't  the  kind  of  a  document.  Garri- 
son, Sumner,  Lovejoy,  FYederick  Doug- 
lass, Wendell  Phillips,  or  James  Russell 
Lowell  would  have  penned.  As  they  said 
it,  human  liberty,  slavery,  exploitation, 
justice  and  our  country's  duty  were  not 
matters  to  be  treated  as  objectively  as  a 
weather  report. 

It  is  like  slapping  on  the  wrist  a  crim- 
inal who  needs  to  be  subdued  and  mana- 
cled- Under  such  ciroumatances,  it  can  be 
understood  why  Mr  Eleaser's  pamphlet  is 
popular  in  the  South. 

It  is  inoffensive.  It  makes  no  sugges- 
tions for  immediate  reform  and  doqm't 
shock  anybody.— Baltimore  Afro-Ameri- 
can.

"Bare  is  merely  a  factor  In  the  oppres-

Cisco  can  never  pay  in  dollars 
and  cents  for  services  rendered. 
But  only  In  loyalty,  respect  ahd 
esteem.  I  refer  to  Rev.  E.  J.  j;.n- 
grudcr.  Sir,  whom  you  so  blatant- 
ly accused  of  betraying  his  iMsoplc. 
Betrayed  is  an  ugly  word.  Sir, 
not  one  to  be  used  lightly.  And 
is  certainly  not  one  to  be  hurled 
at  the  accused,  whom,  at  the 
very  outset  of  your  article,  you 
declared  had  done  good  work  for 
which  you  have  the  deepest  re- 
spect. Especially  if  your  attack 
is  not   perstihal. 

It  ia  gratifying  to  know.  Sir, 
that  so  many  people  disagreed 
with  you,  which  waa  evidefat  by 
the  attendance  at  the  picnic.  Some 
people  still  recognize  loyalty  aa  a 
prime    virtue. 

Aa  for  Jim  Crowism  and  racial 
discrimination,  you  have  two 
causes:  first,  racial  hatreds,  which 
antedate  history  and  which  will 
probably  be  in  existence  for  cen- 
turies to  come;  and  secondly,  the 
abuse  of  privileges  by  certain 
members  of  the  race.  In  both 
cases  the  situation  is  deplorable, 
but  can  you  truthfully  deny  the 
fact  that  where  the  race  is  force- 
fully segregated  they  are  materi- 
ally better  off?  The  ■  fact  that  k 
takes  forceful  segregation  tb 
create  the  initiative  and  incentiva 
to  accomplish  things  is  what  we 
should  be   ashamed  of.  ' 

But  all  that  you  can  say.  in 
that  the  N.  A.  A.  C.  P.  can  do  Ih 
the  Interest  of  civil  liberties  witi 
not  remedy  theae  evila.  You  are 
treating  the  effect  and  not  the 
cause. 

Economically  the  race  la  at  the 
bottom  of  the  heap.  Conaequentiy 
socially  also.  Before  you  can  de'- 
mand  and  receive  any  considerti'- 
Uoo  you  must  have  power.  That 
power  today,  if  not  mcaaared  la 
Dumbcra,  ia  measured  in  dollars 
and  cents  —  material  wealth. 
Wealth  not  aa  an  individual  but 
as   a   group. 

The  average  Negro  ia  living  IB 
a  world  of  make-believe— he  ia 
not  fully  awakened  to  the  reali- 
tica  of  life.  He  aeldom  thinka  of, 
or  foresees,  a  crisis  before  It  is 
upon  him.  He  Is  misled  by  many 
false  Moses  who.  take  his  last  dol- 
lar   to    obtain   satisfaction    tor   an 


stop  to  consider  the  purpose  of 
our  banquet  tables,  which  cer- 
tainly Uke  care  of  the  bodies  of 
thousands  of  unfortunates.  I  do 
know  that  in  New  York  alone, 
more  people  have  been  fed  and 
given  shelter  by  Father  than  by 
many  of  the  so-called  relief  agen-

There  Is  one  suggestion  I  would 
like  to  make,  however  Instead  of 
d(scuaalng  literature  and  art  that 
are  somewhat  unrelated  to  the 
pressing  social  problems  of  today, 
why  not  undertake  a  study  of 
these  problems?  It  should  require 
no  more  time  and  energy  to  un- 
derstand the  present-day  concep- 
tiona  of  politics  and  economics 
than  to  discuss  "Blacker  the 
Berry."  or  Negro  Spirituals  Be- 
sides, surb  an  understanding 
would  equip  our  people  much  bet- 
ter o  take  an  active  part  In  the 
dally  issues  that  center  around 
these   questions.

ANOTHER  RON  A«OOND 


WILL  NEGROES  BErifcFIT  from  the 
social  security  bill  passed  by  the  Senate 
last  Wednesday?  POSITIVELY  NO!  The 
reasons  are  obvious: 

1 — Though  the  bill  purports  to  provide 
unemployment  and  old  age  security  for  27 
million  American  workers,. It  omits  provl%r 
ion  for  farmers,  domesties.  and  govem- 
mmt  workeres.  This  means  that  of  5,503,- 
535  Negro  workers,  who.  if  th^y  w^r?  all 
employed,  would  be  divided  in^P  ?^%  ^9* 
ing  farm  labor  (1,987,839),  28.6%  in  do- 
mestic and  personal  service  (1,576,205), 
and  about  7,500  in  government  service, 
65%,  or  almost  two-tbirds  (3,571,544)  of 
the  potentiar  Negro  wage-«aming  popula- 
tion. wiU  NOT  be  affected. 

2 — The  bill  provides  that  the  workers 
themselves  will  contribute  3%  of  their 
wages  toward  their  protection,  and  the 
employers  will  contribute  a  like  amount. 
This  really  means  that  the,  workers  will 
coDtribute  all,  since  the  employers  will  ci- 
ther cut  wages  to  make  \m  tJv  deficit,  'ir' 
pass  their  burden  onto  tai  |c<^n8um^r8  \ik 
the  form  of  higher  pr^ces^  The  2§.8%  of 
the  Nagro  working  population  (l,424;Sb'l|i 
wlM>,  tf  fmployed,  vrofnld  be  engaged 'fn 
iadastry  and  transpor^tloii,  Will  therefore 
fmj  for  their  own  "security," 

.3 — ^The  bill  'wiU  iaiDQive!  .an  enoriiio^iig 
bureaucracy,  oontroUed  by,  appcjiiitirieilt 
from  above,  and  determined  by  local  pc*- 
litical  machines,  in  order  to  p^mliilster  thie 
machinery  set  up.  This  mjefcps  that  t^e 
same  discriminatory,  Jim  crow  methoAs 
that  are  employed  in  the  adjmnistration 
of  relief  will  be  used  in  the  security  pro- 
gram. 

4 — ^The  plain  intention  of  the  bill  is  to 
reduce  relief.  This  means  that  the  present 
unemployed  50%  of  the  Negro  working 
pc^Hilation  (20%  of  all  workers  receiving 
relief),  will  be  deprived  evtn  of  that  sub- 
sistence dole  which  it  now  receives. 

Thus  does  the  administration  continue 
its  traditional  role  of  ignoring  and  en- 
couraging discrimination  agaiiist.  the  Ne- 
gro. (., 

Thus,  too,  does  the  admiaistralion  at- 
tempt to  foist  on  the  Amsncaa,  pfigplo 
another  opiate,  to  drug  U)eir  senses  with 
a  false  dream  of  security,,  and  so  to  para- 
ly«  their  determination  to  wrest  a  square 
deal  from  the  "new  deal" 

This  National  Run  A,n^und  cannot  go 
(HI  forever.  The  Ametioi^i  people  know 
that  genuine  social  aecnt^  is  their  right 
in  a  democratic  nation.  Iliey  know,  too, 
that  the  denial  or  witb-heMing  of  genuine 
•ocial  security  is  nothing  less  than  a 
violation  of  this  riglat  They  were  fooled 
oaoe  or  twice.  Now  they'are  suspicious. 

Look  out,  adjninistmtioo'!

commerce,   industry,    or   government,   yet 
opportunities  to  excel  in  some  8|X)rts? 

ExcclloKci  in  .:ornc  of  the  sports  is 
indicative  of  physical  ability,  but  not  ne- 
cessarily of  mental  aptitude.  The  physical 
ability  of  the  Negro  has  never  been  con- 
tested by  the  exponents  of  white  superi- 
ority. They  concede  that,  yet  continue  to 
argue  that  he  is  mentally  and  morally  in- 
ferior, and  therefore  unfit  for  certain 
types  of  responsibility.  His  ability  to  win 
races  and  knock  out  opponents  in  the 
prise  ring  in  no  way  disproves  the  claim 
of  white  superiority. 

On  the  other  hand,  should  a  Negro 
become  director  of  the  Federal  Reserve 
systeip,  cr  president  of  Chase  National 
Bank,  or  sales  manager  of  the  Woolworth 
chain  of  stores,  or  (Jovernor  of  Texas,  the 
claim  of  white  superiority  would  imme- 
diately be  questioned.  This  in  turn  would 
provoke  a  searching  examination  of  the 
Nordic  myth  and  the  reasons  for  its  use. 

There  are  people  in  this  country  who 
cannot  afford  to  have  such  an  examina- 
tion made.  Incidentally,  they  are  the  same 
people  who  have  to  do  with  the  distribu- 
tion of  opportunities.  They  are  the  people 
who  control  finance,  commerce,  industry, 
and  government.  And  their  control,  in 
part,  is  based  on  the  extent  to  which  the 
concept  of  white  superiority  is  made  a 
tradition  of  American  life. 

As  long  a.s  this  Nordic  myth  is  ac- 
cepted by  the  American  people,  the  hand- 
ful of  people  in  control  can  maintain  their 
control.  They  can  use  It  to  divide  the 
majoritj-  of  the  people  and  set  nine-tenths 
of  ttwi  majority  over  against  the  other 
tenth.  They  can  then  press  the  isolated 
tenth,  Into  the  slum  and  the  gutter,  and 
usci  its  position  there  as  a  gauge  with 
which  to  measure  the  opportunities  to  be 
allowed  the  other  nine-tenths. 

So  you  can  wager  your  right  arm  that 
as  long  as  this  handful  of  people  control 
the  distribution  of  opportunities  through 
their  control  of  industry  and  the  state, 
Negroes  never  will  become  Morgans, 
Rosenwalds,  Fords,  or  Roosevefts.  It's 
not  in  the  cards  of  this  deck. 

In    America   the   working   class   starts 

out  as  mainly  black.  The  Negro  was  labor 

and  labor  was  the  Negro.

will   honestly   support   the    Interest 

of     all     working     people     in     the 

United  States. 
As    a    result    of    this    movement 

iteople     who    are    interested     have 

formed    groups    and    clubs,    mads

ther   popularixe    and    explain    the 

ibjects   and    necessity    of   a   Labor

Rev.  Blrcher,  grafted  the  use  of

aa  unfounded  attack  on  the 
«lub  and  Its  members. 

Mr.  Grimes  informed  the  club 
representative  that  the  permission 
to  use  the  church  must  go  before 
the  church  committee,  of  which 
he  is  a  member.  Needless  to  say 
that  under  the  influence  of  com- 
mitteeman Grimes  the  "church 
cammittee"  refused  the  use  of  the 
church  on  the  excuse  that  an 
other  meeting  was  being  held  on 
the    night    requested. 

Members  of  the  Vanguard  called 
on  Mr.  Grimes  to  verify  this  inci-

S6ciety  News 


'  THE  ITALIAN  PEOPLE  are  unsym- 
pathetic with  Dictator  Mussolini's  Abys- 
sinian campaign.  This  is  the  best  news  of 
the  week.  It  is  reported  by  leading  Amer- 
ican dailies,  that  have  no  reason  for  tell- 
ing the  truth. 

The  report  cites,  as  cause  for  this  dis- 
affection tile  general  pau{ierization  of  the 
Italian  people  under  the  fascist  corporate 
statfe.  Another  reason  giten  is  the  dos- 
potf<r  and  tyrranical  cruelty  with  whioh 
Mussolini  has  been  governing  the  country. 
A  third  cause  is  the  peril  and  misery  of 
the  Italian  troops  themselves.  In  French 
Somaliland,  where  detachments  of  these 
troops  have  been  concentrated,  thousands 
are  reported  to  be  dying  of  disease  and 
exposure,  while  thousands  more  are  ex- 
isting on  the  most  meager  of  rations.  Mu- 
ssolini pays  his  soldiers  so  litUe  t^t 
many  are  actually  seen  begging  alms  of 
the  Arabs! 

To  add  to  the  uncertainty  of  the  cam- 
paign, Rome  is  agog  with  the  recant  i^ws 
that  Emperor  Haile  Selassie  has  begun 
j(>reparing  an  army  of  500,000  men  to  re- 
p^.  thie  250,000  Mussolmi  has  mobilised 
against  him.  This  renders  the  advisability 
of  an  Abyssinian  war  all  the  more  ques- 
tionable. • 

This  seeming  change  in  the  attitude  of 
the  Italian  people  is  no  change  at  all.  The 
people  themselves  have  never  been  in 
favor  of  war.  But  because  of  Mussolini's 
rigid  censorship,  no  news  of  tliis  leaked  to 
American  shores.  The  reports  of  enthusi- 
astic popular  support  of  his  campaign 
were  all  lies  manufactured  by  Mussolini 
himself,  and  disseminated  through  his 
mouthpiece,  the  whole  Italian  press. 

The  truth  of  this  news  of  unrest 
among  the  Italian  people  is  authenticated 
by  Mussolini's  recent  intensification  of 
the  brutal  suppression  of  the  people.  His 
special  court  for  dealing  with  persons 
charged  with  political  crimes — really  dis- 
agreement with  Mussolini — has  handed 
down  35>8  sentences  since  September  1934. 
These  sentences  run  as  high  as  20  years 
impriaonment  or  banishment.  Criticism  of 
his  Ethiopian  campaign  is  stifled  as  soon 
as  discovered,  and  the  critic's  voice  is 
either  stilled  forever  or  provided  with  an 
audience  of  prison  walls. 

It  is  significant  that  almost  all  of  the 
558  persons  sentenced  by  the  court  were 
regarded  as  "radicals."

IX>NO  LIVE  THE  BROTHERUQCM)! 

EIGHTY-FOUH  .HUNDRED)  PULL- 
MAN maids  and  porters  voted  in  the 
recent  election  to  determine  which  or- 
ganization would  represent  them  ^  the 
company  controlled  union,  or  the  Brother- 
hood. Only  1400  voted  for  the  cofnpooy 
union.  . 

Tl^ifl  is  the  best  news  Negroes  have 
had  in  many  a  day. 

For  the  first  time  in  history,  Negro 
workers  stood  pat  on  principle  in  the  face 
of  a  well-organieed,  heavily  financed  op- 
position. Tallc  about  your  loyalty  to  gen- 
uine leadership!  Here  it  is.  Talk  ^bout 
your  courage  on  San  Juan  hill. and  in  the 
trenches  before  Metz!  Fightinr  the  Pull- 
man Company  required  more  courage.  - 

The  signif icap<fe  of  this  election  is 
tremendous. 

It  Indicated  th»i  the  lowest  paid,  most 
exploited  group  In  America  Is  awakening 
to  a  sense  of  its  position,  it  Indicates  that 
once  awakened,  tiiis  group  wilt  toliow 
intelligent,  honest 'leadershift  In  a  kt^ggle 
for  its  rightful  pIsM  in  thU  nation's  in- 
dustrial and  social  life. 

H»ts  off  to  ftaaiolph.  .Websteir;  Del- 
lums  and  the  others  who  "tuck  to  their 
guns  through  every  conceiTabie  situation 
the  Pullman  ewnera  .could  contrive  to  de- 
feat them!  For  the. intelligence  which' ae- 
aWed  them  to  sei»  to  LABOR  ORGANI- 
ZATION the  ooly  sAlvation  for  their 
people,  they  deserve  your  respect.  For  the 
honesty  with  which  they  ignored  offers 
of  personal  reward' ;in  return  for  betriay- 
ing  you,  they  dcMrve  your  admiration 
and  gratitude.  For  the  courage  with  which 
they  DEMANDED  your  right  to  organisa- 
tion, to  wages  and  better  working  condi- 
tions, they  deserve  your  loyalty.  This  is 
the  oiily  kind  of  leadership  Negroes  ought 
to  follow  or  even  tolerate. 

H$ts  off,  too,  to  every  porter  and 
maid  who  voted  for  the  Brotherhood!  For 
the  inteUigence  which  enabled  them  to 
perceive  the  true  direction  of  their  im- 
provement, and  for  the  courage  which 
hdped  them  to  defy  their  entployer  on  a 
matter  of  principle,  they  deserve  the  re- 
spect and  gratitude  of  all  Aframerica. 

For  it  is  these  hnmMe  men  and  women 
In  the  thick  of  the  struggle  for  r<iual'pa) 
nod  equal  eeonomlc  opportanitj.  and  not 
your  parasitic  profeaelonala  and  pneudo-

onin  pitnt  look  for  the  Iradenhlp  of  the 
present  and  future.  The  Negro  laborer,

reward  for  building  and  maintaining  those 
factories.  They  deserve  security  from 
want,  ill  health,  and  old  age.  But  they 
don't  get  it.  They  get  nothing  but  that 
pay  envelope  which  contains  just  cnqugh 
to  fceep  their  families  and  themselves 
alive  and  working. 

Ttekft  tht  Chinese  boys,  .^t  piis  very 
moment,  their  kinsmen  in  China  are  being 
robbed  and  despoiled  by  soldiers  in  ti.e 
pay  Of  the  French,  English,  Japanese, 
and -American  Rockefellers  and  Morg^ins. 
Ousted  from  their  own  home  by  stark 
misery  and  oppression,  they  are  helHled 
together  In  congested  little  sections  cf 
American  cities.  And  here  they  work  all 
day  and  all  week  for  barely  cnougt^  to 
keep  thcjr  families  _  ftn<|  theou^vcf' alive

•  You  know  too  well  what  those  Negro 
bpy*  arc  up  against,  essentially  the  same 
thiiigs  that  hol4  down  the  white  and 
Ohisese  boys — only  to  a  greater  degree. 
-  -But  on  Sunday  all  these  boys  meet 
fittd  play  baseball.  They  don't  seem  to 
realize  how  many  other  things  thpy  have 
in-<g>mmon.  Maybe  if  they  did,  they'd, g^ 
from  the  diamond  to  the  round  i&hle 
TWy'd  continue  the  spirit  of  friendship 
in  •  common  struggle  for  common  ends. 
Think  this  over,  Mr.  and  Mr»-  f'an. 
The  same  thing  is  probably  trufi  of  the

You  two  should  be  friends.

V     MORE  'MOOPI'  DANIELS 

THEY  TOLD  "MOOCH"  DANIELS 
that  there  wasn't  any  use  taking  the  ex- 
amination for  policeman  in  Oakland. 
"Mooch"  grinned  at  the  wise  guys  and 
took  the  examination.  He  passed  the  buck 
to  ^em.  It's  up  to  them,  now,  to  see 
that  he. gets  a  square  deal  from  the  civil 
service  commission. 

We  need  more  "Mooch"  Daniels. 

Nobody  is  denying  that  race  prejudice 
is  used  to  keep  Negroes  out  of  {^aces  and 
jobe  to  which  they  have  a  rjght.  Cer- 
tainly we  have  to  fight  this  prcjudide. 
Certainly  we  have  to  change  the  order  of 
society  so  that  the  principles  of  the 
founders  of  this  country  will  become 
sontething  more  than  so  much  thin  a|r. 

But  we  also  have  to  equip  ourselves 
to  take  the  jobs  and  places  to  whioh  we 
are  etitltled.  We  have  to  try  to  get  them 

""'In.  '        > 

JTie   wise  guys — really  scared   guys-^ 

can  begin  right  now  putting  pressure  on 

the     civil     service     commission     so     that 

"Mooch"  will  get  all  that's  coming  tp  him 

and  not  one  iota  leas. 

And  the  yoimg  mcp  and  ^voraen  who 
want  jobs  requiring  special  training  can 
begin  right  now  equipping  themselves. 

The  way  most  Qf  us  act,  people  would 
think  ve  were  waiting  for  any  one  of 
three  things:  (1)  .^  act  of  God  striking 
all  the  white  folks  dead  an4  leaving  only 
Negroes  to  run  the  country;  (2)  The 
second  coming  of  Christ,  filling  the  hearts 
of  men  with  brotherly  lov^  and  (|e%ling 
out  justice  over  the  land;  or  (3)  The 
Commutiist  revolution,  <)estroying  aU  Qced 
^pr  using  race  prejudice  and  giving  Ne- 
groes the  right  to  s^lf-dQterminaUon- 

We'd  better  stop  WAITING  for  any- 
thing. Unless  we  ar^  trained  and  able  to 
fill  the  places  to  which  wc  are  cifVUed, 
and  unless  we  make  some  actual  strup;glc 
to  get  them,  W€>11  be  of  no  use  to  either 
God,  Christ,  the  Communists,  or  ourselves.

With  the  First  Half  over  and 
the  Al  Cigars  holding  the  title, 
the  other  four  teams  are  re.-vdy  to 
sturt  out  for  the  Second  Half 
race.  One  game  has  already  been 
played  in  the  last  sector,  the  Ath- 
en Elks  taking  a  win  over  the 
Grays. 

Whether  they  wlfl  hold  the  lead 
or  not,  will  be  told  Sunday  after- 
noon when  they  tackle  the  Pell- 
cans  at  2  p.  m.  The  Pels  finished 
second  in  the  initial  half  but  are 
confident     of     loading     the     entire 

■  pack  to  the  wire  this  time. 

i     Lack    of    pitching    has    held    the 

'  Pels  down,  but  timely  hitting  al- 
most    evened      matters.      On     the

compete   with,  a  win   will   be   most 

'  important  to  cither  team,  all 
vifhich  assures  fans  of  a  hard

get  a  ch.ince  to  start  off 
the  second  half  with  a  win.  They 
face  the  Grays,  wno  have  failed

SAN  FRANCISCO'S  LOSS 

WHEN  TABYTHA  ANDERSON  died 
this  week,  the  {yobple  of  San  Francisco 
lost  a  heart  in  which  burned  the  chasten- 
ing flame  of  tauMdln  kindness.  That  she 
was  also  ambitious,  courageous,  loyal,  and 
diligent  can  neitber  add  to  nor  detract 
from  her  place  ih  the  memory  of  her 
friends  and  assopUites.  They  will  see  her 
always  as  a  geot^  woman,  soft-voiced, 
patient,   and  understanding. 

That  she  chque,  the  law  as  a  profes- 
sion was  fortuQa,t£  tor  the  law,  unfortun- 
ate for  her.  H^,^mple  honesty  rebelled 
at  the  trickery  ;^^  cupidity  which  must 
beconie  part  of  ^e  equipment  of  every 
lawyer  who  wouJ4  ^  successful.  She  was 
not  oply  the  s^nfftntof  her  clients,  but 
an  agent  of  justi^,  more  concerned  with 
the  spirit  of  l^Wr.tb^n  with  its  fee. 

As  a  worker  w^hin  the  church,  with- 
in the  N.  A.  A^,<^,P.,  and  the  Community 
Center,  Miss  Apo^bson  exemplified  that 
i^iirit  of  enterj^riss  and  fideUty  to  princi-

Tp  The  Spokesman,  this  case  smells. 
Too  fresh  in  «nr4neittory  are  the  many 
similsr  cases  wfcj^  dsOy  occur  in  the 
Sontli.  The  cspiNvi  watch  may  have  been

Negroes,  does  nothing  to  prevent  the 
wage-cutting,  pricc-and-tax-raisi^g  policy 
of  the  industrialists  and  property-owners 
who  really  govern  the  islands. 

We  hope  the  two  honorable  gentlemen 
cut  each  other'.s  thi-oats.  They'll  probably 
spill  the  wiiole  mess  with  their  blood.  It 
takes  these  gentle  little  disturbances  to 
bring  us  to  a  realization  of  our  own  posi- 
tion.

AN  AMBITTOUS  PROGRAM 

THE  RESOLUTIONS  ADOPTED  at 
the  26th  AnnuaT  Conference  of  the  Na- 
tional Association  for  the  Advancement  of 
Colored  People  constitute  an  ambitious 
program*  for  that  organization  during  the 
coming  year.  According  to  the  Rev.  Fred 
A.  Hughes,  who  attended  the  convention, 
the  Association  will  throw  most  of  its 
force  behind  the  breaking  down  of  educa- 
tional discrimination  in  American  Univers- 
ities and  colleges. 

From  The  Spokesman's  viewpoint  es- 
pecially important  are  the  resolutions  (1) 
condemning  discrimination  and  segrega- 
tion practiced  by  the  government  in  its 
Emregency  Relief  Program,  (2)  urging 
the  use  of  the  ballot  as  a  PItOTOST 
weapon  and  not  as  a  panacea,  (3)  con- 
demning the  increasing  signs  of  fascism 
most  evident  in  efforts  to  abridge  the 
rights  of  freedom  of  speech,  press,  and 
assemblage,  (4)  condemning  the  viol&tions 
of  the  rights  of  sharecroppers  and  agri- 
cultural workers  generally  by  planters, 
their   retainers,   and   officers  of  the   law. 

These  resolutions  seem  to  indicate  that 
the  leadership  of  the  Association  has 
turned  over  a  new  leaf  and  is  resolved  to 
fight  where  it  will  do  the  most  good. 
Negro  Americans  should  see  that  these 
resolutions  are  not  empty  gestures.  The 
membership  of  the  Association  can  force 
its  leaders  to  convert  resolve  into  action.

HOW  THE  GOVT.  SEGREGATES 

JACK  RILEY  in  a  letter  to  The 
Spokesman  last  week  implied  that  the 
government  of  the  United  States  is  the 
only  government  in  the  world  which  "sup- 
presses segregation  .  .  .  and  is  now  en- 
gaged in  a  series  of  social  experiments" 
whereby — we  suppose  Mr.  Riley  meant  us 
to  infer— the  Negro  will  ultimatdy  be 
emancipated.  The  Spokesman  disagrees 
with  Mr.  Riley,  contends  that  the  govern- 
ment of  the  United  States  actually  prac- 
tices, sanctions,  and  enforces  segregation, 
and  that  its  "series  of  social  experiments 
are  drawing  the  lines  of  segregation  of 
the  Negro  tighter. 

To  save  the  reader's  time  and  our 
space,  we  submit  as  corroboration  for  our 
viewpoint  the  25th  Annual  Report  of  the 
National  Association  for  the  Advance- 
ment of  Colored  People.  The  first  15 
pages  in  this  report  deals  with  the  Asso- 
ciation's 1934  fight  against  the  Govern- 
ment's policy  of  discrimination  and  segre- 
gation of  Negroes  in  federal  projects.  For 
Mr.  Riley's  benefit— who  seems  like  the 
proverbial  horse  that  could  be  led  to 
water  —  the  government  segregated  Ne- 
groes during  1934  in  CWA,  PWA,  FERA, 
CCC,  Subsistence  Homesteads,  Boulder 
Dam,  Mississippi  Flood  Control  ai^d  the 
Tennessee  VaUey  Projects.  What  other 
segregation  is  needed  to  get  this  point 
across?

NEEDED— A  NEGRO  THEATER 

IT'S  TIME  we  had  a  Negro  Theater  in 
America.  It's  time  we  had  a  theater  with 
courage  enough  to  present  on  the  stage 
thfr4ife  issues  and  realities  which  copfront 
the  12  milUon  Negroes  in  tliis  country 
everywhere.  We've  never  had  such  %  thea- 
ter in  America..  Not  until  very  recently, 
when  the  working-class  theater  emerged 
and  shot  up  into  full  flower,  was  there 
even  the  faintest  glimmer  of  it. 

For  the  American  theater  has 'never 
really  given  up  its  minstrel-show  ooncep- 
Uon  of  the  Negro.  The  fiction  of  that 
conception  has  continued  from  the  firet 
''burnt  cork"  end-man  down  to  Ames  and 
Andy  today.  It  was  "the  fiction  which 
played  up  the  mythical  idiosyncrasies  of 
color  and  made  those  idiosyncrasies  a  butt 
for  the  white  man's  laughter.  It  w^  the 
fiction  of  Sambo,  the  lasy,  good  for  noth- 
ing, crap  shooting,  razor  toting,  ghost 
ridden,  sex  hopped  Negro.  And  although 
the  long  tradition  of  the  wliite  aotor  in 
blackface  was  finally  broken  sad  t|»e  Ne- 
gro himself  allowed  to  appiar  on  the 
stage,  that  fiction  sUll  prevails.  Cork  or 
no  cork,  it  was  still  the  white  mSa's  fabri- 
csUon  of  the  Negro.  Aad  it  still  persists 
when  you  see  an  Bthsl  W9AM*  on  the 
stage,  a  Buck  and  BubUek  ta  ^M#eviHe, 
a  Cab  Calloway  ip  s  nlfht  club,  or  s 
Stepin  Petchit  in  tfie  morisa.  t1ta«e  par-

Herndon.      the     state      of     Georgia

up   the    challenge.

AN.%LYSIS  OF   RACE   PKBJlJDiCE 

RECENT  STATEMENTS  in  the  Fas- 
cist Italian  press  disparaging  the  intelli- 
gence of  black  men  a«^  an  excuse  for  their 
enslavement  by  the  'miperior"  white 
brings  forward  once  again  the  old  ques- 
tion of  race  prejudice. 

The  beHef  that  racial  hatred  Is  a  thmg 
aBctent  as  time  and  beyond  immediate 
rttmedy  is  not  confined  only  to  "Nordics" 
and  ether  white  people.  Surprising  though 
it  seems,  many  black  men  themselves 
sabscribe  to  this  view. 

Only  yesterday,  criticium  of  The 
Spokesman's  attack  on  the  Sutro  Baths 
All-Negro  Day  was  founded  on  the  as- 
sumption that  race  prejudice  is  some- 
thing too  much  a  part  of  "human  nature" 
to  be  removed  by  reconstructing  the  ob- 
jective features  of  our  social  environment. 
The  Spokesman  was  informed  that  only  a 
"great  cosmic  understanding"  would  bring 
about  this  muchly  needed  change  in  hu- 
man attitudes. 

So  it  is  with  the  programs  of  most  of 
tl»e  reformist  movements  among  Negp:^ 
Americans.  The  Inter-racial  Ckimmission 
proceeds  on  the  naive  assumption  that  a 
-  "better  understanding"  of  one  another's 
profalema  by  the  leaders  of  both  races  will 
i  briag  about  a  change  th&t  will  be  reflected 
in  the  Negro's  immediate  advancement. 
The  Garvey  Movement  and  its  off-spring, 
the  49th  state,  take  root  in  the  paralyzing 
consciousness  of  futility  against  race  prej- 
udice. 'Since  it  CANNOT  be  up-rooted 
from  human  nature,  and  since  it  will  al- 
WAyi^  be  the  cause  of  Oppressing  and  per- 
secuting the  Negro,  the  only  escape  is  to 
run  away  from  it,"  say  the  spokesmen  for 
:  these  groups. 

Even  the  clear,  penetrating  mind  of 
James  Weldon  Johnson,  one  of  the  ablest 
living  Negro  Americans,  is  thwarted  by 
this  monstrous,  evil  sentiment.  In  his 
recent  book,  "Negro  Americans,  What 
I^ow?"  Jotmson  magnifies  race  prejudice  a 
hundred-fold,  makes  it  some  gargantuan, 
n^levolent,  timeless,  colossus,  and  advises 
hte  readers  to  keep  saying  to  themselves 
imtil  death:  "I  will  not  allow  race  preju- 
dice to  blight  my  life." 

This  self-hypnosis,  as  our  own  experi- 
ence will  warrant,  is  not  even  a  remedy, 
•  much  less  a  cure.  Ndther  do  we  gain 
anything  by  grovelling  at  the  feet  of  the 
demon  and  giving  it  the  dervotion  due  a 
God.  For  practical  pdrposes,  as  well  as 
theoretical  clarity,  we  need  something 
more. 

We  need  to  know  that  race  prejudice 
is  pure,  tmadulterated  certified  buncombe 
stirred-up  in  a  mixture  of  vague  psycho- 
logical, philosophical,  and  sociological 
speculations  and  eased  down  the  throats 
of  the  gullible.  It  has  no  more  business  in 
an  honest  textbook  than  palmistry,  as- 
trology, alchemy,  phrenology,  nnmerology, 
and  necromancy.  But  in  modem  life  it 
has  a  use  for  the  same  reason  that  any- 
one  of  the  other  humbug  arts  and  quack 
cure-alls   have.   IT  PAYS! 

To  go  into  a  long-winded  discussion 
of  the  psychological  character  of  race 
prejudice  will  not  suit  our  purpose.  Any- 
one interested  in  this  phase  of  the  ques- 
tion should  stay  away  from  most  of  the 
ponderous  tomes  on  "mob  psychology" 
and  the  "crowd  mind,,"  et  cetera.  Let  him 
read  patiently  and  carefully  Hertz's  "Race 
and  Civilization,"  dt  Hankins'  "Racial 
Factors  in  Civiligation,"  or  Radin  s  "The 
Racial  Myth."  Your  public  hbrary  has 
them. 

As  an  immediate  step  of  practical  per- 
Importaace,  we  ought  to  realize)  that 
prejadice  i«t  nothing  more  tJian  a 
|als  toM  by  greMly  old  ogres  io  frlghtMi 
iMe  diUdren  out  of  their  uits  and  malts 
tihaii  bshave.  it  is  an  Instrument  of  ttocJal 
UMHrol.  made  by  men  to  iwe  against  other 


*hbiii\i-Jt.- 


In  America  it  works  perfectly.  It  has    |      |jp|%a||^||^|y| 

succeeded    in    making    ninc-tentiis    of    the  IIlKIiIjIjIi  I 

population  believe  that  the  other  tenth  is    ' 


worthless  and  de8er\'ing  of  nothnig  more 
than  standing  room  and  a  crumb  from 
the  table.  It  has  made  the  isolated  tenth 
go  further  into  its  shell,  cringing  and 
snarling  at  the  nine-tenths.  It  has  made 
them  waste  their  energies  fighting  one  an- 
other. It  has  taken  their  minds  away  from 
the  deejier  human  needs  and  hopes  they 
share  in  common.  It  has  keDt-tferm  divid- 
ed. 

And  to  whose  interest?  Ah,  there's 
the  questicn!  Find  out  who  benefits  from 
race  prejudice  and  you  have  the  answer 
to  the  riddle  and  its  ultimate  solution. 
Do  you  suppose  it  might  be  the  handful 
of  greedy  old  ogres  who  run  the  countrj' 
now  and  are  determined  to  continue  run- 
ning it?  who  shape  the  jjeople's  attitudes 
and  want  to  keep  shaping  them?

THE  WATERFRONT  SITUATION  ' 

WITH  THE  DEFEAT  of  Harry  Bridg- 
es and  the  West  Coast  delegates  to  the 
I.  L.  A.  Convention  in  New  York  last 
week,  the  situation  on  the  San  Francisco 
waterfront  takes  on  new  significance. 

In  spite  of  the  cries  of  "Red"  and 
"Commimist"  hurled  daily  at  the  leader- 
ship of  the  local  1.  L.  A.,  Negroes  have 
derived  immeasurable  benefits  from  mem- 
bership in  the  Association. 

There  have  been,  first,  the  new  bene- 
fits which  were  gained,  by  all  stevedores, 
regardless  of  race.  They  were  the  increas- 
es in  pay,  the  regularity  of  work  and 
hours,  the  certainty  of  employment. 

In  addition  to  these,  Negro  stevedores 
were  accepted  into  a  union  unconditional- 
ly. Several  were  elected  to  positions  of 
responsibility  and  leadership.  Every  effort 
was  made  by  the  union  officials  to  pre- 
vent manifestations  of  racial  antagonism. 
The  Negro  stevedores  enjoyed  the  exper- 
ience of  working  with  his  white  brothers 
without  any  reference  ever  b«'ing  made  to 
differences  in  (xmplexion. 

But  now,  these  advantages  so  recently 
gained  by  Negro  stevedores  are  in  danger. 
There  seems  to  be  a  concerted  move  on 
foot  to  brca  kthe  grip  of  the  I.  L.  A.  and 
its  brother  organizations  on  the  water- 
front. Certain  interests  are  making  a 
great  hue  and  cry  for  the  old,  stand-pat 
leadership  which  played  into  the  hands  of 
the  enemies  of  labor.  They  want  to  oust 
Bridges.  They  want  to  control  the  hiring 
halls.  They  want  the  power  to  cut  wages 
and  fire  men  as  they  desire. 

In  order  to  have  their  way,  these  dan- 
gerous interests  will  do  anything.  Daily 
they  are  attempting  to  stir  up  trouble  by 
trying  to  divide  the  men,  shouting  "Com- 
munist" and  "red  alien  agitator"  with 
every  breath.  They  will  threaten  and  ca- 
jole. They  will  use  violence.  They  will 
woimd  and  maim  and  kill.  They  will  even 
force  the  men  to  strike. 

In  the  event  of  a  strike,  the  Negro 
will  become  vastly  more  important  than 
he  now  is.  Efforts  will  be  made  by  these 
subversive  and  un-American  interests  to 
round  up  himdreds  of  Negroes  to  scab. 
They  will  be  promised  protection,  assured 
permanent  employment,  paid  attractive 
wages. 

This  is  the  real  danger;  some  Negroes 
might  believe  these  promises  and  work  as 
strike-breakers. 

Now  is  the  time  for  Negroes  of  every 
walk  of  life  and  every  phase  of  influence 
to  consider  this  problem  carefully.  The 
only  hope  for  the  Negro  people  in  Amer- 
ica hes  with  the  destiny  of  militantly  led, 
organized  lalx>r.  Seventy  years  of  strike- 
breaking have  gained  them  nothing.  In 
San  Francisco  last  July,  refusal  to  scab 
won  them  jobs  and  an  important  place  in 
the  local  labor  movement.  They  cannot 
aAord  to  forget  this  lesson. 

Negro  preachers,  teachers,  profession- 
als, and  workers  of  every  kind  should 
discountenance  at  once  any  secret  move  to 
regiment   black   scabs   to   beat   down   the 

struggles  of  waterfront  labor.

A  CALL  TO  YOlTTIi 

We  are  the  Negro  youth.  Twelve  mil- 
lions of  my  race  are  Americans.  Together 
wc  are  an  oppressed  national  minority.  In 
the  South  we  are  segregated.  We  enter 
theaters  by  side  doors,  we  ride  in  special 
compartments  in  street  cars,  we  eat  in 
designated  places,  we  are  ordered  away 
from  the  ballot  box.  Sometimes,  at  night, 
one  of  us  is  seized,  dragged  to  a  tree,  and 
there  tortured  and  hanged  as  though  he 
had  greatly  crimed  against  humanity. . . . 

Everywhere,  even  in  the  North,  we  are 
discriminated  against.  But  everywhere, 
too,  things  are  changing.  ...  It  is  for  us, 
you  and  me,  Negro  and  white  alike,  to  ad- 
vance once  more  the  cause  of  freedom,  to 
find  courage  in  the  spirit  of  '76. — From 
the  Keynote  address  of  Waldo  McNutt, 
chairman  of  National  Continuations  Com- 
mittee, American  Youth  Congress,  deliv- 
ered to  the  3000  delegates  and  visitors  to 
the  Congress  at  Cass  Technical  High 
School,  Etetroit

EST  YOU  BEUEVE,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  PubUc,  that  the  fate  of  Angelo 
Herndon  has  nothing  to  do  with  your  position  in  society,  and  that  what- 
ever you  do-fo  help  win  a  re-hearing  for  him  is  simply  your  pious  deed 
for  th^Hnonth,  it  will  be  well  for  you  to  think  about  this  Herndon  case 
seriously.  It's  a  danger  signal  to  you,  and  if  you're  not  a  fool, 
pause  and  consider. 

Public  mass  meetings  in  the  Bay  Cities  are  planned  for  this  week  to 
solicit  your  support  in  the  Herndon  Case.  The  Socialist  Party,  the  N.  A. 
A.  C.  P.,  the  Urban  l.«aguo,  the  Southern  Inter-racial  Commission,  and 
numerous  other  organizations  have  come  to  the  aid  of  the  International 
Labor  Defenas  in  urging  the  Supreme  Court  to  re-consider  Uie  case. 
Surely  all  these  organizations  would  not  join  hands  on  this  issue  unless 
it  portended  something  vitally  iniportant  to  you. 

THE  FACT  of  the  matter  is  that  Hemdon's  sentence  and  the  refusal  of 
the  Supreme  Court  to  pass  on  the  merits  of  the  case  epitomize  every- 
thing the  American  i)eople  have  learned  through  suffering  to  hate  and

thers  of  the  Republic  so  dreaded  and  intended 
to  provide  against  when  they  wrote  the  Constitution  of  the  United 
States,  namely,  the  dictatorship  of  an  oligarehy. 

Such  a  dictatorship  of  the  Georgia  industrialists,  bankers,  and  rich 
property-owners  is  plainly  revealed  by  the  whole  Herndon  case,  from 
the  boy's  arrest  to  his  conviction  and  sentence.  Herndon's  crime  wa.s 
sknply  that  of  organizing  laborers  and  jobless  persons  on  relief.  In  June, 
1932,  when  the  state  closed  down  all  rehef  stations  in  Georgia,  Herndon, 
through  his  leadership  of  the  Unemployment  Council,  mobilized  lOW) 
laborers,  600  of  them  white,  and  marched  in  ijrotest  uix)n  the  Fulton 
County  Courthouse.  The  next  day  the  officials  appropriated  $6,000  for 
jobless  relief. 

FOR  HIS  PART  in  the  affair,  Herndon  was  arrested,  tried,  convicted, 
and  sentenced  to  twenty  years  on  the  chain-gang.  The  collusion  between 
police  and  courts  on  the  one  hand,  and  the  monied  interests  on  the  other, 

is  plain.  Herndon  represented  the  majority;  his 
persecutors,  a  small  mlaority.  This  is  nothing 
less  than  dictatorship  o£  an  oligarchy,  using 
force  and  law  to  attack  the  leadership  of  the  destitute  majority  and  thus 
continue  oppressing  them.  This  was  not  a  far  step  from  using  these  in- 
struments of  state  power  both  to  press  Negroes  down  into  the  gutter 
and  to  punish  them  for  attempting  to  rise— a  customary  procedure  of 
Georgia's  oligarchy. 

In  the  sec<»nd  iilace,  the  refusal  of  the  Supreme  Court  in  judge  the 
issues  of  the  Herndon  ease  is  an  example  of  the  hypocrisy  with  which 
justice  in  this  country  is  e\aded.  The  Nine  Old  Men' realized  the  {xirtenl 
of  the  case  for  115  million  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Joe  Public.  But  'they  "clutched 
at  the  straw  of  a  false  technicality"  and  ignored  the  issues.  Those 
Fathers  of  the  Republic  must  have  turned  over  in  their  graves  at  this! 
It  cleariy  meant  that  even  their  brightest  brain-child,  the  highest  guard- 
ian of  justice,  had  fallen  into  evU  ways  and  the  hands  of  the  minority. 
It  meant,  too,  that  democracy  was  now  being  openly  discarded  in  favor 
of  subversive  and  tyrannical  forms  of  government.

THE  HERNDON  CASE  is  a  warning  to  you,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  American!  It 

foretells  the  imminent  menace  of  Fascism  in  the 
United  States.  Fascism  is  no  more  nor  less  than 
dictatorship    of    an    oligarchy    of    industrialists, 

bankers,  and  rich  land-owners.  Apd  when  it  comes,  every  mother's  son 


A    WARNING   TO 
EVERY   WAGE   EARNER 


and  daughter  of  you  will  suffer.  If  you  wish  to  know  how  you  will  sulTer, 
simply  examine  what  is  happening  to  the  wage-j-ameiu  of  Germany  and 
Italy.  In  both  countries,  wages  have  been  cut  to  rock-bottom  and  prices 
have  been  sky-rocketed.  At  the  same  time,  the  imiwverished  wage-earn- 
ers are  driven  into  the  ranks  of  the  unemployed  by  the  failure  of  the  in- 
dustrial machine  to  start  functioning  "normally."  And  what  happens 
then?  Relief  rolls?  No!  PuBiic  Works  Administration?  No!  Nothing  to 
relieve  the  slarvatifin  and  destitution  of  the  uneinployetl.  Italy  and  Ger- 
many si)end  less  for  social  relief  than  any  other  EunjjK'an  country. 

PERHAPS  YOU  WONDER  how  the  wagec»irner8  [lermitti'd  things  to 
get  in  this  condition.  The  answer  is  that  tluy  couldn't  help  themaelves. 
And  the  reason  they  couldn't  help  themaelves  is  because  the  lirst  step  a 

Fascist  dictatorship  takes  is  to  enact  laws 
PREVENTING  the  wage-earners  from  help- 
ing themselves.  Mussolini's  first  legislation 
was  a  law  outlawing  strikes.  And  the  .severity  with  which  he  KU[)pre8«e« 
any  disagreement  with  his  plans  is  shown  by  the  number  of  {Kjlitical 
prisoners  committed  to  long  sentences  in  pri.son  or  exile  every  month  in 
Italy. 

In  Italy  and  Germany,  a  wage-earner  may  be  paid  less  than  enough 
to  supply  himself  with  food  and  shelter.  But  he  dare  not  complain.  He 
may  be  kicked  out  of  a  job  when  the  factories  shut  down  and  foreed  to 
beg  or  steal  to  keep  himself  alive.  But  if  he  raises  his  voice  in  protest  he 
is  thrown  into  prison  or  banished  from  the  country.  He  can't  read  any- 
thing explaining  his  condition  and  sympathizing  with  him.  If  he  dees  he 
receives  the  treatment  of  an  alien  enemy.  He  is  beaten,  jailed,  and 
sometimes  shot.  There  is  no  esca|X'  for  the  wage-earner. 

MUSSOLINI  AND  HITLER  know  this  and  admit  it  by  their  behavior. 
In  spite  of  their  brutal  repression  of  the  Italian  and  German  people,  in 
apite  of  the  ideal  situation  which  they  maintain  for  the  financial  oli- 
garchy, THEY  CANNOT  START  INDUS- 
TRIAL RECOVERY.  The  factories  and  ma- 
chines and  capital  and  man-power  of  both 
countries  arc  either  idle  or  kept  running  at  half-speed  by  war  prepara- 
tions. There  is  no  permanent  escajie  for  Mussolini  or  Hitler. 

But  they  both  see  a  temporary  expedient  by  which  they  can  dupe 
the  wage-earners  again  and  hold  a  little  longer  their  position  of  control. 
This  expedient  is  WAR.  Today  Mussolini  plans  the  shameful  depredation 
and  slaughter  of  millions  of  Ethiopians.  Germany's  armament  factories 
are  working  day  and  night  in  preparation  for  the  conquest  of  her 
neighboring  Euroix-an  states.  In  war  both  Hitler  and  Mussolini  see 
plunder,  new  niarkeLs,  new  lands  and  mines  and  forests,  and  a  chance  to 
slaughter  th(  ub.inds  of  German  and  Italian  wage-earners,  thus  reduiing 
the  number  of  mouths  to  feed  at  home. 

This,  my  friends,  is  Fascism,  the  system  which  condemns  millions  of 
people  to  die  either  in  the  slow  rot  of  starvation  or  the  quick  furnace  of 
war. 

AND  THIS  is  what  Herndon  was  fighting  in  Georgia.  In  fighting  Fas- 
cism, Herndon  was  fighting  your  battle  and  mine.  We  must  not  let  him 
fight  alone.  We  must  not  let  that  fight  be  beaten.  If  victory  is  to  be 
wn\T  IS  TO  BK  a'hicved,  the  Supreme  Court  must  now  be  pressed 
i»o.\K   Bv   US'  '^"*^  harassed  unceasingly  by  the  i)rote«ta  of  millions. 

Governor  Talmadge  of  Georgia  must  be  foreed  fo 
pardon  Herndon.  A  word  in  behalf  of  Herndon  is  a  word  in  behalf  of 
yourself,  your  children,  your  democratic  liberties.  Attend  the  Herndon 
mass  meetings!  Wire  your  protest  to  Washington!  Sign  the  petition  to 
Governor  Talmadge!

BREAKING  THE  SPOKESMAN'S 
^VINDOWS 

WE  HOPE  THE  PERSON  or  persona 
who  huried  pieces  of  pavement  through 
our  windows  early  Saturday  morning  re- 
ceived adequate  compensation.  Admittedly 
however,  it  is  difficult  for  us  to  see  how 
any  compensation  could  induce  a  Negro 
woman  to  do  so  disgusUngly  petty  a  thing. 
Doubtless,  the  woman  was  paid.  Per- 
haps she  was  doped  or  primed  with  U- 
quor.  But  no  matter  what  the  circum- 
atances,  she  was  acting  merely  as  the 
«ent  for  other  interested  persons.  We 
don't  blame  her. 

Nor  can  we  find  &  moUve  for  this  van- 
daHsm.  Although  The  Spokesman  has 
been  accused  Ume  and  again  of  Commun- 
i»t  leanings,  it  is  not  a  Communist  news- 
■  Iiaper.  It  has  many  partners  in  the  light 
for  a  square  deal  for  labor.  Some  Com- 
munist, but  the  great  majority  merely 
lihieral.  Moreover,  the  Hemdon  issue  had 
aa  great  an  appeal  for  Negroes  as  for 
persons  interested  in  labor  or  radical 
movements. 

Tilery  are  some  rumors  about  that  The 
Spolusman's  reoeat  treatment  of  the  Sut- 
roBiattto-tod  COC  csmm  brought  this 
"rctrttraMoa"  upon  Its  head.  We  hardly 
think  the  persons  involved  in  those  eSses 
wonM  resoH  to  such  tactics.  There  was 
nothing  personal  between  The  Spokesman 
«Mi  those  persons,  only  a  difference  of 
ofitalon. 

...The  Spokesman  begs  leave  to  remind 
the  community  in  respect  to  this  matter, 
that  during  its  enUre  career  it  has  fought 
openly  and  above  board.  If  it  thought 
■omething  was  wrong  or  deserved  censure, 
it  said  so.  If  it  felt  an  individual's  behav- 
Jor  was  injurious  to  the  interests  of  its 
readers,  it  said  so.  It  has  never  been  vin- 
dicUve.  sneaky,  petty.  It  deserves  the 
■ame  treatnjent  from  those  persons  who 
^n't  like  it 

We  expect  our  windows  to  be  broken 
•gal".  We  expect  damage  to  be  done  to 
oar  machinery.  Wefl  try  to  stop  it  when 
It  comes.  But  if  we  don't  htop  it,  the 
eommnnlty  may  be  assured,  it  will  not 
stop  us.  The  only  way  to  alter  The 
Spokesman's  present  poHcy  is  to  "rub 
«rt"  Ito  editorial  sUff.  We  expect  at- 
teoiptB  to  do  that,  too.  Verj  Ukely  they'll 
eome  when  our  backs  are  turned. 

Negroes  the  country  over  have  long 
been  wishing  for  this  kind  of  a  newspaper, 
the  kind  that  doesn't  lick  boots,  stay  on 
the  fence,  betray,  or  cringe.  Now  that 
they  have  o|»e,  what  are  they  going  to  do 
about  it?  Shield  the  people  who  want  to 
kin  The  Spokesman  and  thus  encourage 
otter  attempts?  We  hope  not. 


smarter  than  the  censors  and  are  honest 
enough  to  give  us  the  facts. 

Acrordiuj  to  the  Berlin  correspondent 
of  the  London  Eccnoraist.  German  indus- 
trial acUvity  is  maintained  largely  by  the 
industries  engaged  in  re-armament  work. 
Unemployment  is  slightly  lessened,  but  the 
cost  of  living  has  been  catapulted  upward. 
Official  reports  on  wage  toUls  show  what 
the  employer  pays  and  not  what  the  em- 
ployee refc^ves  after  numberless  compul- 
sory subscriptions  and  official  and  party  '*""'  ""^  economic  theories  of  fas-  |  This  treaty,  however,  was  nulll-  '■ 
exacUona  have  been  met.  "'""    """    "  -  -     -  -      i- 

Moreover,  Berlin  has  recently  admit- 
ted the  existence  of  an  unofficial  and 
supposedly  secret  floaUng^loan.  The  peo- 
ple wUl  have  to  pay  for  this  loan,  yet  Ihe 
Naa  officials  and  magnates  floift  extrava- 
gance in  their  faces  and  refuse  the  pub- 
lication of  all  public  or  scmi-pubUc  ac- 
counts. 

Americans  who  read  these  things  and 
denounce  Hitler  should  Vemcmber  t*iat  he 
came  into  power  with  the  active  help  of 
all  those  people  who  accept  the  utter- 
ances of  demagogues  at  their  face  value. 
They  believed  Hitler  was  a  friend  of  labor 
and  the  German  people.  We  may  not  be 
so  guUible.  But  we  ought  to  keep  an  eye 
on  Hoover,  Hearst,  Long,  Coughlin,  Borah, 
BiU  Green,  Matthew  WoU,  Tajmadge, 
Townsend,  Sinclair,  and  even  Mr.  Roose- 
velt. All  these  gentlemen  have  a  way  of 
saying  things  to  make  the  American  peo- 
ple think  they  are  their  friends.

HOW  OFTEN  iMAVE  WE  heard  the 
old  saw:  "It's  not  the  most  'cultured"  but 
the  common  iieople  who  keep  race  preju- 
dice alive"?  In  fact,  on  the  basis  of  this 
reasoning,  most  of  our  liberal,  middle- 
class,  swanky  organizaUons  weave  elabo- 
rate programs  for  racial  betterment. 

This  is  far  from  the  truth.  The  great 
American  middle-class,  the  "elite,"  four 
hundred,  Mayflower  descendants,  and  ar- 
istocrats are  the  ones  who  keep  alive  the

MASS  MEETINGS  NOT  ENOUGH 

ANGELO  HERN1>:.N  has  come  and 
gone.  He  left  with  the  people  a  stirring 
message,  an  example  of  extraordinary 
heroism.  Such  a  mere  boy!  So  friendly, 
generous,  courageous!  Yet,  the  entire 
State  of  Georgia,  and  by  "due  process  of 
law,"  the  entire  United  States  of  America 
will  not  be  satisfied  until  his  blqod  is 
spilled.  .  .  . 

Anomaly  indeed,  that  the  State,  which 
political  scientisto  tell  us  will  see  that  >ve 
receive  justice  and  the  benefits  of  national 


ves  of  the  Italian 
people? 

Naturally,  in  Industry,  wages 
suffer  first  in  times  of  crisis.  Mr. 
Paul  Einzig.  whom  John  Strachey 
quotes  aa  a  warm  friend  of  Ital- 
ian fascLsm,  wroU,  "In  no  country 
is  it  so  easy  as  in  luiy  to  obtain 
the  consent  of  employes  to  a  re- 
duction in  wages."  Those  wages 
have  amounted  to  approximately 
60  p.  rcent  in  the  last  seven 
years.  An  agreement  between  em- 
ployers and  men  resulted  In  a  cut

MORE  THAN  ten  years  ago,  the  Pull- 
man  porters  began  to  assert  their  right  to 
organize  their  own  union.  That  wise  and 
beneficent  organization  which  manufac- 
tures dining  and  sleeping  cars  had  also 
manufactured  a  union  with  a  name  more 
prosaic  than  that  which  it  bestows  upon 
Its  rolling  stock,  to-wit,  the  Pullman  Por- 
ters and  Maids  Protective  Association.  But 
the   workers,   with    the  jngraUtude   which 

characterizes  their  class,  would  have  noth-    ,...,. 

mg  to  do  with  it;  whereupon  in  its  pater-    j hatli-pressod'    government     i,

Harlem,  the  city  within  a  city, 
that  is  always  on  the  lookout  for 
aunicthing  new,  finds  itself  con- 
fronted with  two  very  strange 
and  odd  rivals.  It  seems  that  the  | 
"Rent  Parties,"  for  which  Harlem 
has  been  famous,  have  now  been 
replaced  by  two  new,  exciting

WHILE  TH£  LODQ^  CE^JIBRyflTE 

WHILE  ROME  ByR,NEP.  Nero.f  it.  is 
said,  played  the  lyre.  Eighteen  centulitB 
later,  while  Negro  Americans  daily  .taae 
the  further  curtailment  of  their  Ubettlis, 
Negro  lodges,  perhaps  the  strongest  isisti- 
tutions  of  the  group,  spend  tjme.  nxwey, 
and  energy  in  discuasiog  petty  fra^ertsl 
details.  Last  week  California  waf^jUje 
Garden  of  Eden  for  lady  and  genU<anMn 
"fraternizers."  '  *m  ^i,; 

Admittedly,  lodges  have  a  puVMie. 
They  bury  the  dead,  help  c%re  fos  ttie 
sick,  and  provide  their  members  witliwan 
opportunity  to  "chew  the  fat"  Butatoow 
if  ever  is  the  time  when  Negro  organiSi- 
tions  of  whatever  sort  should  conc^Qtra^ 
their  resources  in  the  fight  for  full..^bis 
as  American  citizens.  y..  M  .i, 

One    reason    for    the    bickerings  and 

dawdling  within  the  lodges  is  the  pdlltM^ 

ambition  of  lodge  leaden.  These  persons 

are  in  lodges  for  persotval   advanc^t^^Qt, 

not  for  the  betterment  of  the  grou«M^jf

THE  STAMP  OF  AHPBOVAL 

HOW  MAJ^Y  BAY  CITIZENS,  we 
wonder,  will  attend  the  exhibition  of  old 
African  art  on  view  imtil  September  8  at 
the  San  Francisoo  Museum  of  Art?  In 
case  they  are  interested,  they  will  see 
sculpture  in  wood,  iron,  bronse,  copper, 
gold,  and  ivory,  as  well  as  textiles,  imple- 
ments, and  w(3ipons. 

Perhaps  it  will  be  a  spur  to  the  inter- 
est of  Negro  bay  citizens  to  know  that 
this  exhibit  is  highly  recommended  by 
critics  and  connoisseurs.  'Mr.  Charley's" 
personal  endoraement  is  usually  necessary 
to  give  value  to  -  anything  a  Negro  has 
created. 

Having  seen  the  articles  en  'exhibit,  It 
may  be  that  bay  citizens  will  show  more 
appreciation  for  the  efforts  of  artists  liv- 
ing in  their  midst.  Notwithstanding  the 
fact  that  Derkeley  has  a  sculptor  of  na-

TALK  OP  THIS  COUNTRY'S  refusal 
to  participate  in  the  coming  Olympic 
games  unless  the  Nazi  government  gives 
some  assurance  that  Negro  athletes  would 
receive  fair  treatment  turns  out  to  be 
nothing  but  Ulk.  The  United  States  will 
take  part  if  it  has  to  leave  Metcalfe, 
Owens,  Peacock,  Ward,  and  other  dark 
skinned  athletes  on  this  side  of  the  At- 
lantic. 

What  the  boys  are  to  do  is  something 
nobody  will  attempt  to  say.  The  trouble 
lies  as  much  with  the  attitude  of  the 
people  who  run  this  United  States  as  wiih 
Hitler's  maniacs.  The  proper  thing  for 
Uncle  Sam  to  do  is  to  refuse  to  enter  tha 
games  without  guarantee  pf  fair  play  for 
ALL  of  his  citizens.  But  he  w<m't  do  it, 
because  he  treats  his  own  dtissns  worse 
than  Hitler  could  possibly  treat  them. 
The  only  difference  between  bis  method 
and    Adolph's    is    that    perhaps    Adolph 

would  castrate  the  boys  painletely!

ROBESON  LBABNS  AT  L.AST 

SENSITIVE.  INTELLIGENT  PAUL 
ROBESON  seems  at  last  to  have  learned 
that  as  long  as  the  sooial  structure  of  the 
U.  S.  and  England  keeps  its  present 
shape,  there  is  no  escape  for  the  Negro. 
Robeson's  career  has  been  one  of  at- 
tempts to  escape.  His  last  picture,  "Ssn- 
ders  of   the   River."   was    the  fisal   vain 

, effort. 

"Sanders  of  the  River"  shows  the  pol- 
icy of  British  imperialists  who  use  Ne- 
groes to  betray  and  subjugate  other  Ne- 
groes. Ilobeson  played  the  part  of  the 
English  tool.  That  he  refused  to  make  a 
pec^nal  appearance  at  the  premiere 
8ho^s.^at,h^  v^as  disap^poin^  with  the 
work. 
,^T)terc  is  some  talk  of  Robeson  coming 

L  totalis  country  and  doing  seversl  pieces 
for  Hollywood.  We  hope  not.  HoUywood's 
depiction  of  tbe  Negro  is  and  will  be  no 
compliment  to  that  American.  He  will  be 
made  to  appear  a  rasor-totliig,  ',gin-gUE-

THB  ALPHAS  ONCE  MOKE 

To  the  victor  goes  the  spoils — 
which  in  this  case  is  the  eats.  To 
be  banqueted  —  the  victors  —  the 
Alpha  Phi  Alphas.  To  do  the 
banqueting  —  the  vanquished  —  the 
Acorns. 

The   Acorns   might   Improve  with 

us«,   aa  a  progressive  organisation, 

but.  it    doesn't     seem     as     though 

they      improve     on     the      baseball 

field.    After    winning    season    after 

season    in   the   annual   combat   be- 

;  tween    the    two    aggregations,    the 

I  'Corns      have      lost      two      straight 

'  games.   Sunday  by  the  unheard  of 

',  IS   to    4    score. 

Even  though  not  used  to  being 
on  the  Ibslng  end,  the  Acorns 
swallowed  the  blow  like  good  sol- 
diers and  came  to  the  conclusion 
that  it  is  impossible  to  win  with- 
out touching  a  ball  from  one  year 
to  the  otht|-.  While  they  found 
plenty  of  difficulty  in  hitting  the 
offerings  of  the  Athen  EHk  star, 
Meneweather,  they  also  failed  to 
give  January  of  the  Pelicans  any 
support.  The  Infield  was  Weak 
and  the  outfield  naeded  crutches 
to  hold  them  up.  The  losers  had 
little  trouble  with  the  old  men 
like  Richardson.  Rumford,  Bussey 
and  Allen,  but  ^ope  to  do  better 
with  the  youttfen  n#«t  time.

[the  top  position  in  the  Berkeley 
International  League  by  defeating 
the  Wa  Sung  Chinese  team  by  a 
10  to  3  score  Sunday  afternoon  at 
San    Pablo    Park. 

The  teams  put  up  a  classy 
brand  of  ball  during  the  enrly 
part  of  the  buttle,  but  when  Al 
Wong  took  over  the  hurling  duties 
from  Ral)>h  Lieu  and  the  lineup 
was  ch.'inged,  the  ttam's  defense 
was  weakened  and  several  un- 
earned runs  crossed  the  plate. 
The    losers    iilso    knocked    I.,nbuzon 


With  almost  as  much  sweet 
rhythm  in  her  voice  as  in  her 
dancing  feet,  this  little  Miss  sang 
and  danced  her  way  Into  the 
hearts  of  appreciative  audiences 
for  .seven  days  and  nights  On  the 
same  bill  was  such  stars  us  Ihejand  the  Albertina  Pasch  dancem 
Keilar     Sisters     and     Lynch„    radio  ' 

and    record    stars,   also   the    Harris   was    discovered    under     her    goml 
Twins     and     Loretta,     but     it     was 'but    mdiffprent    work.    Dancer    saw 
"that     charming     Le     Gon     girl,"  1  the    possibilities   of   unblhsr   star 
whom    the    theater-goers    dlscus-sed  1  auothiT      "Wuters, "      us      he      cull?, 
as  they   filed  out   to  Market  St.        I  Ethel. 

With  Walt  Roesner's  ork  furn- 1  Undi>r  hi.s  wing  she  went  and 
ishing  the  dance  rhythm,  the,  after  weeks  and  weeks  of  re- 
youngster  answered  encore  after  I  hearsing,  she  was  starred  in  the 
encore  to  the  point,  that  when  .she  '  Club  Tempo.  11  swanky  L.  A.  nlte 
returned  to  the  dressing,  she  was  1  spot  that  i^arl  wus  managing  ut 
unable  to  speak  for  nearly  five  I  that  time, 
minutes  frr  want  of   breath.  1     Then   came   u   hig   night.   Dancer 

While  waiting  for  the  sweet  was  staging  un  uffuiri  I  believe  it 
little  lass  to  regain  her  breath  was  at  the  Ebell  Club,  and  nil 
that    I    might    continue    my    inter-  ,  the    big    shots    of    the    movie    stu- 


vlew,  I  found  if  more  than  a 
pleasure  cppversing  with  her  man 
ager  and  the  gent  who  discovered 
her     possibilities — 

Right   again   -Earl    Dancer. 

Earl,  who  for  eight  years  hurl- 
ed trials  and  tribulations  to  put 
Bthel  Waters  on  top,  is  more  than 
enthused  with  Jeni  and  without 
prejudice,  believes  the  latter  will 
one  day  soon  hold  the  same  repu- 
tation in  the  profesiAon  as  Miss 
Waters  and  is  confident  she  will 
muke  more  money.  And  that  is  a 
lot  uf  money  and  no  one  should 
know  better  than  he,  for  during 
that  time,  the  star  of  "Thousands 
Cheer "   w.is   Mrs.   Earl   Dancer. 

Dancer  has  the  highest  respect 
for  his  ex-wife  and  the  fact  that 
she  has  been  so  successful,  gives 
him  confidence  that  little  Jeni 
will  reach  the  heights  he  has 
planned    for   her. 

Jeni  came  to  the  Coast  last 
June  a  year  ago  from  Detroit, 
with  a  troupe  that  wus  scheduled 
to  go  into  Sebastian's  Cotton  Club. 
They  failed  to  make  the  Culver 
City  spot  and  In  u  slang  expres- 
sion.  It   "was   every   tub." 

Miss  Le  Gon,  as  well  as  the 
rest  secured  employment  in  sev- 
cr.1I    nitc    clubs,    but    failed    to    sot 


dios  were  among  those  presenL 
Eurl  hud  a  bund  and  his  chorus 
of  90  voices  Between  the  orches- 
tra and  choir  numbers-  like  a  bolt 
out  of  a  blue  sky,  be  presenA* 
his  young  protege— Jeni  Lc  Gon. 

Magnificent,  stupendous,  colos- 
sal, spectacular  no  words  can 
tell  of  the  instant  hit  the  young- 
ster made  When  the  audiences 
finally  allowed  her  to  leave  the 
stage,  there  was  a  scraping  and 
scurrying  of  feet,  as  producers 
and  directors  dashed  for  back 
.stage  The  lucky  genet  was  Wln- 
fred  Sheehun,  prominent  movie 
official  und  close  friend  of  Dan-

HOW  MUSSOUNI'S  AFRICAN 

AMBITIONS  AFFECT  AI^RICANS 


EIGHT  NEGRO  AMERICANS  and  15 
Italians  represented  San  Francisco  Sunday 
at  a  protest  meeting  against  Mussolini's 
proposed  drive  on  Ethiopia.  Dospite  its 
aecanu^  impotence,  tliis  little  fgroup  set 
an  example  it  would  be  wise  for  similar 
groupe  all  over  the  United  State*  to  fol- 
low. Tliey  formed  a  committee,'  worded 
resolutions  of  protest  to  be  «ent  to  the 
Italian  consul,  and  laid  plans  for  a  larger, 
more  effective  protest  from  a  '  grater 
z«IMFeaentation  of  organizations.  ,  ■ 

Short  work  was  made  of  thto>  viewpoint 
now  expressed  by  many  Negro  Americans, 
who,  when  called  upon  to  protest  Musso- 
Oni'a  proposed  invasion  and  conquest  of 
£<Uiiopia,  say  that  they  cannot  see  how  so 
remote  a  situation  can  affect  them  here. 
Rather  than  worry  about  what  'is  happen- 
ing to  the  Ethiopians,  they  contend,  Ne- 
gro Americans  should  conq^trate  all 
their  time  and  energies  in  solving  iiieJr 
dtfficulties  at  home.  "  ''    ,  .

l--^{Ucially,  the  Italo-Ethio|Han  con-

^liJUta  reverses  in  Africa  may  k^  the  sig- 
Vtti'tor  a  general  uprising  of  the  darker

volved  a  great  deal  The  boys  had  origi- 
nally been  chal-gcd  with  assault  with  a 
deadly  wcajioii.  Their  rc.il  crime  was  de- 
fending themselves  against  the  attacks — 
dou.iticss  inspired  by  chauvanistic  army 
officers — of  confused,  ifjnorant  white  boys. 
,^  Now,  at  Sun  Pablo  Dam,  a  jim  crow 
CCC  ca.np  hp.^  been  set  up  for  Negro 
boy?!.  B<jys  arc  being  drawn  from  other 
camjjs  and  placed  there,  although  these 
report  no  trouble  in  their  former  camps. 
Officers  explain  that  this,  experiment  is 
being  conducted  to  'see  if  Negrros  can  be 
made  leaders  without  getting  the  big 
head."  Aiitlioritios  i>roi»3e  to  establish 
scvcml  of  such  camps  throughout  the 
state. 

It  will  be  remembered  that  The  Spokes- 
man pointed  out  this  probabiUty  in  a  for- 
mer editorial.  Nothing  was  done  about  it, 
the  population  preferring,  to  sit  quietly 
and  do  nothing  as  is  their  habit  in  every 
ease  where  action  is  needed.  Now,  after 
jim  crowism  has  become  a  lact — instead 
of  just  another  radical  outburst  from  that 
goddam  editorial  writer  cf  The  Spokesman 
— certain  organizations  are  considering 
"taking  up  the  matter." 

The  Spokesman  doesn't  need  to  tell  its 
readers  that  it's  too  late  to  do  anything 
aboiit  the  matter  now.  They  already  feel 
that  way,  and  we  can  predict  that  nothing 
will  be  done  except  to  provide  an  oppor- 
tunity for  several  of  our  eminent  but 
spineless  "leaders"  to  foam  at  the  mouth 
and  "rouse  the  rabble"  into  a  guffawing, 
clowning,  mutual  admiration  and  "deplor- 
ation"  society. 

We  might  as  well  recognize  the  fact 
that  segregation  is  a  policy  of  the  United 
States  government  and  therefore  neces- 
sarily a  policy  of  the  United  States  Army. 
Tliis  policy  will  be  extended  and  enforced 
at  every  opportunity.  Only  by  fighting  it 
all  along  the  line,  never  retreating  or  con- 
ceding, can  we  hope  to  gain  anything. 
When  we  compromise  with  this  policy,  we 
actually  surrender  some  part  of  the  fight. 

The  Spokesman  fears  these  words  are 
wasted.  California  Negroes  seem  to  b«  the 
least  informed  and  alert  element  of  the 
population  of  America  or  Africa.  Yet,  as 
long  as  The  Spokesman  is  published,  it 
will  continue  to  say  such  things.  Maybe 
there  is  a  place  in  heavi^  for  crusading 
rtiewspapers.  ■  .    >''--'^-'/    '  :  l  •.•  ^.  >  '  ■

'  C^LIFbRNlA's  recent  contributiop  to 
the  most  iitrbciou^  0^'  American  cr|meiB 
finds  niiineivus  apotogists  in  ihe  press 
and  sundry  state  departments  having  tb 
do  with'-lkw  ehforcement.      '   '  >•"'"" 

These  champions  of  Americanism  se- 
lect ^€  law's  -delay'  ks  the  6i\e  khS  only 
scape-^at.  Remove  these  delays,  we  are 
told,  and  indignant  citizens  will  be  lew 
inclined  to  take  "justice''  in  tbili-  own 
hands. 

This  explanation,  as  every  Negro 
American  knows,  will  not  hold  water.  The 
matter  of  legal  delay  and  error  is  only  a 
superficial  aspect  of  lynchings.  Speedier 
and  surer  law  enforcement  will  not  eti^ 
mob  violence.  In  the  southern  states", 
where  the  majority  of  lynchings  have  oc- 
curred, the  populace  is  never  doubtful  of 
the  penalty  to  be  imposed  by  a  hand- 
picked  lily-white  jury  on  a  Negro  accused 
of  rape  or  murder.  The  people  know  their 
jury  will  convict  and  their  hangmen  will 
execute.  Yet,  most  of  the  Negroes  lynched 
were  never  taken  to  trial. 

Nor  can  the  hideousl,y  viciouif  nature 
of  the  crime  be  removed  by  calling  the 
lynchers  "vigilantes."  Whatever  of  hero- 
ism once  clung  to  that  word  has  been 
come  to  mean  a  band  of  ruthless,  besotted 
erased.  In  modem  usage,  "vigilantes"  has 
hoodlums;  provocateurs;  sex-crazed,  drink- 
inflamed  thugs;  hired  footpads;  typical 
mobbists  and  lyncher*.  J 

What  is  intended  by  this  comment  ia 
to  call  your  attention  to  the  effrontery 
with  which  people  are  beginning  to  defend 
these  thugs  and  their  deeds.  Foi;  a  long 
time.  America  confessed  with  shame  that 
people  were  lynched  within  her  sacred 
confines.  Now,  a  certain  group  of  her 
people  are  openly  defiant.  They  admit  the 
occurrence  of  lynchings  beneath  their 
very  noses  and  ask,  'What  are  you  going 
to  do  about  it?"  If  their  queatioo  brings 
the  censure  of  intelligent  and  human  fel- 
low Americans,  they  pass  the  blame  onto 
the  government.  Such  inaoleuce  ii^  unpar- 
alleled. 

Yet,  this  attitude  will  be«^  Matching. 
It  ia  a  forerunner  of  something  w^rse. 
The  same  people  who  Justify  an4  defend 
lynchers  today  will  theoMelves  b*  lynojicrs 
lumorrow.  They  are  a  threat  to  the  safety 
of  all  Americans,  to  Americaa  ideals  and 
democratic  liberies.

Joe  is  the  hardest  puncher,  but 
Max  protects  himself  better.  How- 
ever, I  believe  this  is  because  Joe 
is  full  of  confidence  and  thinks 
he  can  whip  anyone  in  the  game. 
Louis  is  much  clever  than  Baer 
and  in  his  favor  al.io,  is  the  fact 
that  he  lives  clean,  which  makes 
it  possible  for  him  to  take  punch- 
es  so   easily."

tion, NJegixxs  should  be  in  the  forefront 
of  thine  pro  esting  a<;ain8t  holding  the 
Olympics  in  F-crlin.  And  they  should  make 
it  Pretty  clei  •  th.il  while  they're  against 
Nad  imfain  as,  tJieyrr-  just  as  opposed 
to  Jim  Crow  here  at  home. 

0)ming  from  Negroes,  these  protests 
will  at  least  have  the  ring  of  sincerity, 
something  tha|;  they  don't  have  when  they 
oome  tnitn  Uni  big-wigs  who  are  straining 
it  )*<«  benn  ^  Germany's  eye  while  ne-

nili>k,  ^j     11  tf    lie  opportunity. 

The  protests  would  be  received  in 
much  better  grace  if  they  came  from  our 
star  athletes,  our  Jess  Owenses  and  Eu- 
lace  Peacocks,  men  who  are  being  counted 
on  as  pure  winners.  An  announcement 
from  Owens  and  Peacock  that  they  will 
not  run  in  the  century  if  the  games  are 
held  in  Berlin  would  be  a  very  effective 
blow  at  the  whole  pattern  of  discrimina- 
tion. And  while  they're  making  that  an- 
nouncement they  ought  to  couple  it  up 
with  a  swift  kick  at  jim-crow  in  such 
states  as  Mississippi  and  Georgia. 

There's  every  reason  why  athletes  like 
these  ishould  take  up  the  fight  against 
discrimination.  For  the  moment  they  are 
riding  high  and  they  don't  feel  prejudice. 
But  those  things  await  them  once  their 
running  days  are  over  atod  they're  no  long- 
er able  to  do  the  hundred  in  less  than 
ten   seconds. 

Not  only  will  they  be  forgotten,  but 
they  will  be  forced  to  labor  all  their  lives 
under  the  onus  of  color.  Sooner  or  later 
they  will  have  to  fight  Jim  Crow.  Never 
will  they  be  able  to  deliver  mightier  blows 
against  it  than  at  this  very  inoment.

WERE  THERE  A  NAN-ni.YNCH  I^W 

(From  the  Charlotte,  N.  C.  Ncwh,  Aug.  2) 
The  extraordinary  judicial  iiiquiry  into 
the  lynching:^  in  Franklin  county 'produced, 
after  three  hours  of  know-nothing  testi- 
mony, not  one  scintilla  of  evidence,  how- 
ever sketchy,  on  which  to  hold  anybody 
for  anything.  The  sheriff  nor  his  two 
deputies  from  whom  the  prisoner  was 
taken  could  even  guess  at  the  identity 
of  a  single  person  in  the  crowd  of  20  or 
more  which  pursued  them  and  reli^t^ed 
them  of  the  Negro.  The  inquiry  recessed, 
because  there  was  nothing  else  to  do,  until 
a  later  date. 

The  sUte,  though  it  displays  a  will- 
ingness to  go  to  the  bottom  of  IBe  shame- 
ful affair  in  Franklin,  is  impotent.  It  can- 
not apply  the  third  degree  to  the  officers 
<rf  the  law  in  that  county,  or  make  them 
Incriminate  themsdves.  Wherefore,  it  oc- 
chra  to  us  to  examiq^  the  federal  anti- 
lynching  bill,  which  Southern  medibers  of
