Editorial
CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME

representative Joseph Gavagan, of Harlem dis
tict in New York City, has introduced resolution IN
Congress- asking President Roosevelt to make known to
the German Government the deep concern of the peo
pie of the United States of America toward the welfare
and well-being of the Jewish and Catholic Mnortes In
Germany
The resolution according to press releases also
asks that President Roosevelt inform the German Gov
ernnent through diplomatic channels that it is the
of the Congress of the United States of America that
such cruel nhumane and unjust acts violate the prnci,
Piles of morality and justice and tend to disrupt concord
and comfy among the nations of the world
We imagine what Chancellor Hitler and the
German people will think of this resolution especially
when they consider the nhumanity and brutality meted
out to the Negro minority in this country particu-
ary regard lynching discrimination and politi-
cal and economic injustice They will doubtless Let

A statement was recently published by Sidney
Strong, white American lecturer, preacher and world
traveller present residing in New York City He
declares that for fifty he has been asked in almost
every civilized nation the globe, why the United
States toerates lynching? He says:

have been met constantly with the old question of why this

His thoughts on this subject have
elected comment from every Me-
ogrs journal in the country and
they bid fair to stimulate the
growth of the clan spirit In the
ranks of colored people.
The dark side OF the situation
is that Negroes are almost forced
to embroce the policies OF nation
ialsm In order to maintain them
selves. DIR. Dubois explains the
pressure that forces such action
thusly:
Compulsory separation OF hu-
man beings by essentially artifi-
cial criteria such as birth. nation

The past week has been a good

OF four years. many with large
families. entirely dependent upon
our Department OF Public Welfare.
Ii is well for US to know, how
ever. that OF all the factories In
this city whose doors have been
thrown open for men TO enter and
find work, only one has meant
much to us who live within our
house. and that is the River Rouge
plant OF Henry Ford.
There are many In this nation
who do not like Mr.. Ford. His
methods have been held up for
much unfavorable comment, and
his motives questioned as not being
of the best social quality.
In the political campaigns that
too frequently disturb Detroit. he
has been made the object OF attack
and many OF us have been the first
20 oppose what was said TO be his
desire, although we have never
been positive that he desired any
thing politically from us.
What have those who shouted so
loudly against Henry Ford done for
us during these four lean years In
which we and our families have
gone hungry and cold? Where are
those Negro leaders who cried out
so strongly against Donald Mar
shall. and shouted back In public
meetings that he was nothing more
than a tool for Henry Ford?
Marshall has been very popu-
lnr man during the past week. and
Henry Ford has suddenly become |
a patron saint. because his doors
have been opened to us to earn I
living. This we should remember
when others come TO us and try TO
show us that we owe him no par /
ocular gratitude.
Why should we envy Mr.. Ford

motive was TO furnish motor trans

Huey himself expressed something
of the same idea when he publicly
told Harrison and Clark not to get

wanted some quilts in their hide.
Other Senators used other animals In
the same metaphor.
The result is Huey is going to have
immunity in congressional debate
hereafter. The boys are afraid Of
him.
Unions Can Lose Nothing.
The inside on the rail strike situa-
tion Is that the labor unions are en-
gaging in tactical maneuvers.
They are holding out because they
have nothing to lose.
It will be three months before the
10 per cent wage cut agreement ex-
pires. They have all that time in
which to hold out for better terms,
without any serious consequences.
The reason Rail Administrator
Eastman threw up the sponge was
that he dtscouered that situation
and became disgusted. He had the
operators fairly Uell in line, but
he could not bulge the unions.
None of the manipulators believes
there is going to be a strike. There
cannot be. The law provides many
steps yet before we even get up close
to one.
