In this work, too. Shouse had the
assistance of an able alumnus of the

and his assistant. Emmett Dough-
erty. have supplied to the scattered
repeal battahons.

Two Courses on Negro
Question to Be Given
At New Harlem School

NEW YORK-Two phases of the
Negro question will be dealt with by
the Harlem Workers School when it
opens this evening, the historical
phase in course called "Revolu-
tionary Traditions of the Negro
People" given by James Allen, and
Current Problems of the Negro Lib
Grafton Movement" given by James
w. Ford.
Allen will cover the history of the
Negro people from the African slave
raids and the colonial period to the
present day, with special attention to
the Civil War and reconstruction
period and recent developments.
Special emphasis will be placed on
those historical conditions which laid
the basis for the present day Negro
question and on the revolutionary
traditions of the Negro people which
have been buried by bourgeois and
reformist historians.
Ford will deal with the present
conditions of the Negroes and the
methods and organizational forms to
win them to the revolutionary
struggle for the self determination of
the Negroes in the Black Belt and
against capitalist exploitation.
Registration is now going on at the
school office, 200 w. 135th ST., Room
212 B.
