EDITORIALS,
A New Angle In Race Relationship
By William conklin Brown

The Editor of the Richmond Times
Dispatch in the issue of Oct. 21st.
told a great story on the Negro
Exodus" and, true the story was
This editorial in our estimation show
that the writer of this article has q
good and sympathetic understand
inr of the economic status OF the
Negro as it now obtains in the south.
After, admitting that the Negro has
vertually been forced to the wall, be-
cause of the competition that he
must meet with, in the poorer class
of whites in the south, in obtaining
icbs, that once were considered ms
he offers a ray of hope, to the Negro,
as farmer. He, says Agriculturaily
the Negro still fairly retains a I'M
competitive place in the south.
This confession should give the
Negro new inspiration, and we be-
lieve it will. There are hundreds or
prosperous Negro farmers in the
south and in our own state Virginia.
And, it may encourage more to enter
into this profitable and independent
calling. 1t occurs to US that should
the Negro become a foremost food
producer of the south, instead OF It's
foremost consumer he would hold an
envible position. There could be no
serious conflict of opinion with our
leaders on this new metormorphis Of
occupation of our group, for farm
ING has become a great science OF
this ace. and the many new inven-
lions to save labor on the farm, has
caused the drudgery to be minimum.
The writer of the editorial in the
dispatch" in speaking of the migra-
ton in the past ten years, AYERS; Az
the center however of this exodus
lies the incontrovertible fact that tie
Negro cannot compete with white IN
dustrial labor in the south as we'll as
he can in the North" In measure
this is true, but it is fact that GER
tain sections of great industrial
plants of the south could be manned
bv Negroes, with out any serious
conflict in the racial goodwill of the
Races. In fact this plan is adopted
bv many of the great Industrial
plants of the south.
Nevertheless, should the Negro an
ticipate, or be forced back to the
farm ne may rest assured that the
whole world has to eat and what a
commanding position the group
would be, if they were considered
the producers of the country's food.
The editorial in the dispatch reads
thus:
Industrial DEVELOPMENT Of tile
South since the war has been accom-
panied by a pronounced exodus OF
the Negro, according to survey re-
Gently completed and announced
Though the Secretary of Commerce.
This survey indicates that approx
mately 100000 Negroes have left
the South during the past ten years
to enter Northern competition rath-
err than to keep their status in the
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1930-10-25

But senatorial friendship" not back
ed up by senatorial votes, is about as
valuable as the kiss of Judas.
The N. A. A. C. P. is undertaking
to lead colored voters in Ohio in a
bitter fight against McCulloch. 1t
does so pursuant to the unanimous
vote of its Ohio branches whose re-
personalities endorsed such action at
a state conference in Columbus. Neg
70 voters in Ohio, and in other states
as well, are now confronted with the
opportunity of making good the posi-
ton they took on Parker. If they
elect the men who sold them out by
voting for Parker, let them hereafter
remain silent when their rights are
trampled upon.
The N. A. A. C. P. is not accepting
one cent from any political source. 1t
is making this fight on its own non
partisan basis. Its objective is full
citizenship rights for the American
Negro. It's weapon is the ballot. Cam
paigns of this kind cost money. I'm
fortunately the N. A. A. C. P. is
gravely hampered by lack of funds.
Its opponents are spending lavishly
large sums. We are informed halls
are being hired in Ohio cities to pre-
vent other than McCulloch meetings
being held; that the N. A. A. C. T.
position is being misrepresented both
by Republican editors and in widely
distributed campaign literature; and
that tours are being financed of
hitherto unknown Negro "leaders"
some of them political henchmen of
dubious repute.
1t rests with colored people wheth-
err they will back up the fight in their
behalf which the N. A. A. C.. P. is
making. Money is badly needed, and
needed at once. If you can spare any,
thing from a few dollars to few
cents for this fight send your contri-
button to the N. A. A. C. P. Every
penny received and every penny ex-
pended will be accounted for.
And pennies and dollars are sorely
needed now for one of the most cru
cial fights the Negro has ever made.
The defeat of Parker has been called
the major political demonstration by
the Negro since the Civil War. Poll
ticians are watching the contest in
Ohio, On its outcome will depend the
attention given the just demands of
Negro voters in the future. 1t does
mt matter so much whether a given
senator is elected or defeated. 1t mat
tiers profoundly whether colorcd citi-
zens rally to their own cause and
back up that cause with the sinews
of war.
Give now. Give quickly and gener-
ously to the N. A. A. C. P, SO Fifth
Avenue, New York City.
