Negro Congressman Says
It's Only Solution

Daily Worker Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, April %.
What have you, the only
Negro representative in the
U. S. Congress, to say to the
Negro people, particularly to
the Negro workers, on May
Day?
Oscar Depriest just laughed.
I repeated the question. His head
rolled on his short, fat neck and
Oscar Depriest laughed and passed
again: Il guess I won't say any
thing"
This was the upshot of an hours
interview last Tuesday, in which
the Negro Republican Congressman
repeatedly told the Daily Worker
correspondent, in answer to queries
on today's Negro problems, from
Jim-Crowing to the denial Of voting
rights and lynchings Il know the
only answer is revolutionary pro-
gram. 4. But I am against revolu-

Thus coldly the son of two Ala
bama slaves who is now the rep
resentative of Chicago Negro
freedmen" according to the lights
he learned as boss in one of the
worlds most notorious political
machines, the Thompson Small
ring of Cook county, clearly drew
a line-on one side, Depriest and
the white politicians and the
profits they made on corruption
that brought him indictment for
alleged connection with a South
side vice ring; on the other side,
the Negro people and their inter
ests as Depriest admitted he saw
them.
The N. r. A. "has been detri-

standpoint" Depriest confessed.
But as to his attitude toward the

And these words she whispered
over and over again until, at length.
Barnabas reached out and touched

A PIRATES A PIRATE.

This way is perhaps the best by
which to secure a good foar-team
league. But Key West ball play
ers have peculiar elements rooted
i'm their baseball souls. The Pirates
and Singers here have in the last
few years represented the two
best clubs. Very rarely does a Pr
rate ever don a Slugger uniform
and Just as rare is the case of a
Slugger reversing the process. A
Slugger is Slugger and a Pirate
is a Pirate. "And that's that. ;"
say the ball players. Further than
that, parents and relatives of a
ball player stand firmly against
his going over to rival clubs.
What's to be done? There is no
doubt that players have an abso-
lutte right to go where they please.
No one can prevent them. But
what the FERA officials can do
in the meeting tonight is appeal
to the natural sporting instinct of
any athlete. They can ask play
ers to cooperate and go where they
are assigned for the interests of
the league.

PITcHERS-AHOY!

What has occasioned all this in
terest? Plenty! What's happen
ing in the baseball league? Pen
ty! Then let's look over some of
the rumors and talk going the
rounds. The greatest controversy
will undoubtedly be on division of
the pitchers among the four teams
expected to comprise the coming
league. That there win be di-
vision is bound TO come true. Too
many managers and players are
interested in making the hurting
staffs of the four senior loop
teams here as equal as possible
and will exert every effort to have
the plan become an actually. Be-
sides it is a worthy move. Why?
Well, listen: The question wheth-
en- Key West has enough baseball
talent to make a four-team senior
loop ever Gibbs and flows. 1t is
the opinion of this sports scribe
that the Island City can have a
fOur-team league and still give a
smart brand of teamwork to the
crowds. But only when the hurl-
ing staffs and even a few of the
better players are evenly divided
among all four clubs win we be
able to have a league without q
fourth team too weak to even hold
up a decent last place.

WHY NOT?

One final matter. Why can't
Key West teams have uniforms?
The diamondball loops expect to
have nice-looking suits. However.
diamondball outfit does not APP
proach the expense of a baseball
uniform. Still, if Key West is to
have a representative baseball
league, the first step must be to
secure uniforms. No other city
has a league with the makeshift
suits our players wear. And it
will not be necessary to purchase
an entire baseball outfit. If the
FERA can supply shirt and pants
to each player in the league. a
step will be accomplished here that
will be city-wide in it's effect. And
if it is possible, different colored
uniforms for the four teams in the
league will make our loop one of
which we can be proud through
and through.
