cONFlDENcE-NOT SUSPICION


When the war was declared at an
end, there was much talk about the
new era, big business, and racial
solidarity. From almost every quar-
ter came reports OF groups entering
big Business The reports were true
in most instances. and we launched
quite few new enterprises.
II required but two or three years
to determine whether we were ready
for Big Business The war was credit
ed with bringing us closer together
1t was said the great war gave birth
to a new racial pride. hitherto
unknown racial confidence, and pre-
dictions were many that the New
Negro was with us.
AS we scan the past three years,
we look in vain for many of the
enterprises launched under the enthu-
siasm born right after the Armistic.
We look for the Big Business Men
and their Big Business.
To our regret we have not develop
ed any Big enterprises. We launched
quite a few in many parts Of the
country, North and South, but they
have fallen. 1t is difficult to assign
an accepted reason for the failures
but since we have the failures, we
may conjecture without doing VIC
lence to the real truth.
If we have suffered from any one
cause is the Suspicion" we have
cultivated for many of our under
takings Instead of cultivating Con

suspicion. We have spread that sus

Fans were on their toes at this an

later that the Cleveland stars would

be shut off from bookings for the

that the American Giants will not be

means that the game here will be
dead as hector for some time to come
If something Is not done to straight
ten out matters. The fans are real
angry. Neither Chicago nor Cleve-

and they call it a league too. This
is too much to ask the fans to stand
