THE BLACK MAN AND THE UNIONS
From The Crisis


I am among the few cOlOred men who
have tried conscientiously to bring about
understanding and cooperation between
American Negroes and the Labor Unions. I
have sought to look upon the Sons of Free
dom as simply part Of the great mass of
the earth s Disinherited and to realize
that world movements which have lifted
the lowly in the past and are opening the
gates of opportunity to them today are of
equal value for all men, white and black
then and now.
I carry on the title page, for instance, of
this magazine the Union label, and yet [
know, ard everyone of my Negro readers
knows, that the very fact that this label
is there is an advertisement that no Negroes
hand is engaged in the printing of this
magazine, since the international Typo
graphical Union systematically and DELHI
eratcly excludes every Negro that it dares
from membership, no matter what his quail
ifcations.
Even here, however, and beyond the hurt
of mine own, [ have always striven to
recognize the real cogency of the Union
argument. Collective bargaining has, I'M
doubtrdly, raised modern labor from some
thing like chattel slavery to the threshold
of industrial freedom, and in this advance
Of labor white and black have shared.
| have tried, therefore, to see vision
of vast union between the laboring forces,
particularly in the South, and hoped for
distant day when the black laborer
and the white laborer instead of being
used against each other as helpless pawns,
should unite to bring real democracy in
the South.
On the other hand, the whole scheme of
settling the Negro problem inaugurated
by philanthropists and carried out during
the last twenty-years, has been based upon
the idea of playing off black workers
against white That it is essentially
mischievous and dangerous program no
sane thinker can deny, but it is peculiarly
disheartening to realize that it is the La
Dor Unions themselves that have given
this movement it's greatest impulse and
that today, at last, in East St. Louis have
brought the most unwilling of us to ac-
knowledge that in the present Union move
ment, as represented by the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor, there is absolutely no
hope Of justice for an American of Negro
descent
Personally, [ have come to this decision
Reluctantly and in the past have written
and spoken little of the closed door of
opportunity, shut impudently in the faces
of black men by organized white working
men. [ realize that by heredity and cen
tury-long lack Of opportunity one cannot
expect in the laborer that larger sense of
justice and duty which we ought to de-
mand Of the privileged classes l have
therefore, inveighed against color discrim-
nation by employers and by the rich and
wel-to-do, knowing at the same time in 81
lence that it is practically impossible for
any colored man or woman to become a
boiler maker or book binder, an electrical
worker or glass maker, a worker in iewelry
or leath, machinist or metal polisher. a
paper maker or piano builder, plumber
or potter, a printer or pressman, a

FRUIT JUICES TAKE NO SUGAR
a Way to Save Surplus Products for
Use in Beverages, Flavorings and
Preserves Next Winter.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10-Home-
made fruit juices take no sugar and
may be used during the winter months
in variety of ways, according to
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. One i'm
portant use for fruit juices is in the
making of jellies at time of year
when sugar or its substitutes may pc
more plentiful and when it is more
convenient to do the work. In this
way freshly-made jellies may be avail
able all through the winter.
Fruit juice may be pressed out OF
fruit by means of a cider press, spe
cial fruit press, or other improvised
presses; then heated in an acid-proof
kettle up to 10 degrees +. The fruit
juice may then be poured into ordi-
nary hot jars. hot bottles, or tin cans,
and handled by the same directions
as those for canning of fruit itself
IL poured into miscellaneous bottles,
it is suggested that the fruit juice be
sterilized as follows:
Make cotton stopper and press in
to the neck of the bottle and leave
during the sterilization period. Set
bottles in boiling hot water up to the
neck of the bottle, sterilize the fruit
juice for 10 minutes at n temperature
Of 165 degrees Z. Remove the pro-
Duct, press cork in top over cotton
stopper Immediately. If the cork fits
well, no paraffin need be used. If a
poor cork, it may be necessary to dip
the cork in melted solution of max
or paraffin. Fruit juices and apple
cider when handled in this way will
not 'flatten in taste" and will keep
fresh for future use.
