Controlling Race Stock

Controlling Race Stock
Statisticians Of population estimate
that the end Of the present century will
witness a total population in the
United States of two hundred million
people. These estimates have warmed
the scientists to action, an outstanding
one Of whom, Prof. r. F. Forester, Of
New Jersey, sounds the following
warning: what is vital is that ouI
control over the future race stock oil
the United States will apparently never
be greater than it is today; and if it is
desired to maintain a high average OF
ability, well-being, and citizenship, nc
simpler device is at hand than the non
admission from this time forward, Of
all DUBIOUS RACE ELEMENTS
From other observations of Jealous
Prof. Forester, it appears evident that
his classification Of dubious race ele-
ments" refers particularly to Negroid
types from the West Indies, South
America, Africa, and elsewhere, the
fusion of whom with other racial types
in America, says Prof Forester, should
be avoided; "for," he continues. 'the
mulatto population today equals in
number the black population Of not
many decades ago"
Thus, once again, are science and
the midnight instincts of the "su,
perior" races at variance; and it seems
almost impossible to bring about either
written or unwritten laws which have
any marked effect to safeguard the
policy of preservation, in order that the
sheep" and the goats may be kept
eternally apart for all save economic
cooperation. The Supporters" cannot
seem to save themselves from them
selves, and the interiors" are becom-
ing more variant in hue than Joseph
coat of many colors.
There is one sedative, however
which might be employed ere the eff
fects of fusion bring greater consterna-
ton to the higher" types Of stock;
and that is the formula Of Americas
democracy, which if employed in pure
unauthorized doses, will at least bring
some degree of peace and repose to
those who have been more wont tc
worry about racial purity than Chris
tian integrity.

Explorations Fruits

Amid deepest lamentations, an
American tourist returning from the
Congo and South Africa, sings dirge
Of regret over the sights there that
met his gaze of curiosity. Says he:
Il am greatly disappointed with this
country; in fact, there is very little in
the whole Of South Africa to attract
visitors" And the tourist goes on to
relaee the depressing scenes common to
land which was exploited by King
Leopold of Belgium, and which now is
tightly held in the grasp of other ex-
ploiters, who are running rampant in
South Africa, not for the sake of hui
mainly, but for the sake of greedy self.
So avaricious have certain exploiters
recently become that they are striving
TO pass bills which will forever debar
South African natives from the honest
fruits Of their own toll. 1t is not sur
prising that depression and sadness
greet the eyes of American tourists in
the dark continent.
1t is always thus where exploitation
has been the prime output of the
minds Of men One does not have TO
journey to Africa to see the wasting
fruits Of exploitation. Wherever one
group of men is busily absorbed in ele-
waiting itself upon the back of another
group, waste follows in the wake of the
exploitation in the form of either physi-
cal. mental, or moral decay. In the
South today there remain saddening
proofs Of the days Of slavery. Land
wastes and moral backwardness, like

tons hands The years spent while
physical and moral decadence reigned

COLORFUL NEWS MOVIES

By THE CAMERAMAN


The nomination of James A. Cobb
to be Judge of the Municipal Court OF
the District of Columbia has been con-
frmed by the United States Senate.
The matter is merely history, now, and
a race man Of sterling character, splen-
did ability, and judicial poise goes on
the bench as the successor of the late
Robert H. Terrell. Inside the con-
frmation cup, however, there is one
parting scene which colored America
needs to view, in passing, in order that
when repetitions of such appear upon
the horizon of Negro progress, the
Race may prayerfully prepare to purge
itself from such intraracial decays as
the two Cobb protestants who APP
peared before the Senate subcommittee,
and, like crabs, fastened their claws
upon the hem Of his garment, trying to
forestall his and the Races progress.
One protestant, an unlicensed
plumber, who, has undoubted ability in
his trade, despite his failure to qualify
under the District Plumbing Board
and there is no one who questions his
ability because Of his failure TO qualify
as registered plumber-fought Cobb
before the Senate Committee on ac-
count OF the percentage OF Howard
University law students, of whom
Cobb is Vice-dean, who, like the
plumber, have failed to pass the dis
trict examinations for licenses Glass
houses? Worse than that-a glass
head.
But, saddest of all in the annals OF
racial disgressions was the testimony
Of another protestant who vigorously
opposed Mr.. Cobb before the Senate
committee upon the ground that he
was a man of poor judgment. This
witness, an attorney-at-law (please tor
give us), alleged the bad judgment con-
sisted of Cobbs legal activities in the
Curtis segregation casa case in
which the rights of Negroes to pur-
chase property in the face of segrega-
ton contracts are being tested before
the highest court of the Nation. This
attitude, the witness insisted, provoked
prejudice and bad feeling, which
proved that the nominee was a man of
poor judgment.

United Laundry Workers

United Laundry workers
The American Federation of Labor
has announced that the 10000 colored
laundry workers of New York City
are being organized by the Interna-
tional Laundry Workers Union, the
Women's Trade Union League, and
other affiliated associations subordi-
nate to the parent A. F. of L. These
10000 colored laundry workers, the A.
F. of l.. asserts, constitute about rs
per cent Of the New York laundry en-
ployees. We would certainly like to
see the detailed figures of the laundry
personnels of New York employers,
for about FIVE years ago colored en-
ployees of New York laundries consti-
tuted only 20 per cent of the grand
total. In the skilled occupations, they
constituted only about 10 per cent; in
semi-skilled occupations, about 10 per
cent; and in unskilled occupations,
about 10 per cent, as against 80 per
cent, 90 per cent, 90 per cent, and 81
per cent, respectively, for whites in
the four general groups named, !. C.,
total skilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled.
Now, there is no especial reason why
the colored workers should have the
corner" on the profession of washing
and ironing; any more than the white
should have it on electricians and pipe
filters (or any other) occupations;
and bit OF suspicion nresistibly at
taches itself to a movement to or
ganize the sisters and brothers, while,
at the same. time, they are frequently
barred from other branches Of the
Union.
Be that as it may, however, il the
news is authentic then the new laun-
dry union prospectives should see to it
that they increase their inclusion in the
skilled. classes. No particular pride at
taches itself to the fact that they are
heavy in the unsleilled classes, and
Eight" in the skilled group. OF course,
this is not their fault, by any means;
in fact, it would be the exception to
the general rule if the opposite were
true. But, if good faith, through and
through, pervades this organization eff
fort, then the next step is to advance
the unsl1illed workers, when they be-
come qualified, into the skilled groups,
with commensurate pay and equalized
conditions Of labor. And, after that
see that union means UNION, not
only for the laundresses and mangle-
machine hands, but for piano-makers,
carpenters, glassblowers, and what-not
That's the kind of organization that
viii make the Union ,scintillate with
