Eight strikers at Negro colleges in
recent years are evidence of the re-
volt of Negro Youth against the eff
fcrts of white college presidents to
turn out future "Uncle Toms" to
succeed the crop now fortunately dy-
ing out.
That benevolent despotism" of
white college heads or trustee boards
is teaching "pacifism and servility"
is shown by John P. Davis in an
article in the January "New Stu
dent" Davis is a graduate at Har-
ward and a former Bates College
debater. Every moment of the
students time is scheduled, his
clothing prescribed even down to his
underwear. He is compelled to at
tend chapel and is put to bed every
night at ten o'clock. Especially is
his reading censored. In many col
leges and schools in the South, even
the magazine Of the webbing and
fearful Du Bots is barred. Latest
books on the race question are abso-
lutely taboo.
Strikes at Howard University and
Fisk resulted in resignation of
Presidents Durkee and Mckenzie,
both of them white arbiters of what
Negroes should be taught. Davis
notes other strikes as follows:
Hampton, Kittrell, Knoxville, st.
Augustine and to additional out
breaks at Howard University. Minor
revolts have been staged at nearly
tevery Dixie College.
At Hampton white faculty men,
bers were accused of membership in
the Ku Klux Khan. They ate at
tables separate from the Negro
teachers. At Fisk Howard and
Hampton the faculty called in white
police in an effort to intimidate the
students. zea
Students mail is opened by the
faculties of most Of these colleges;
especially is mail from the NORTH
scrutinized. Students mail usually
goes through two classes of censor
ship, first at the Post Office where
all mail to Negroes is carefully
watched, and again at the hands Of
the faculty. AT Storer College ant
Tougaloo College the faculties re
serve the right to dispose of OBJ
jectionable mail" 'in any way de
sirable."

Students Fight Goose Step
in Negro Colleges of y. S.

N. c., as at Hampton and Tuskegee,
there is compulsory chapel, Davis
points out. Regulation uniforms
are required; matrons rule mems
dormitories; students are forbidden
to entertain visitors in their rooms;
playing cards and tobacco ~
strictly forbidden on the campus.
Every thing is done to make ''uni-
versal robots" out of grown men and
women. Nothing is left to their own
initiative.
Every effort is being made to
teach servility and pacifism.
But the Negro student has long
since given up the motto of his pre-
decessors in college: "Take the world
and give me Jesus"

to overcome the opposition which has
cropped up against Carl williams Of

Farm Board, representing, respectively,

support to prevent q coalition of the
wheat and cotton groups they admitted
confirmation Of the two board members
could be blocked II real effort were
made to do so.
Senator Smith, Democrat. Of South
Carolina, upon whom many Senators
lean for advice on cotton matters, Ia
leading the opposition to Williams, and
Senator Wheeler, Democrat. Of Mon
