THE WAY OUT
LOREN L L
NO SECRET

M 6GOhG1
IAN violating no confidence with the observation that the
Negro people have been pretty sadly exploited during their
residence in the United States.
Nor Is it a secret that times have been going from bad to
worse since the general breakdown began in 1929. Ever since
| can remember and that's quite a stretch Of years; there has
been a pretty widely held theory that something ought to be
done about this sad state of affairs.
The general notion seems to be that action has failed to
materialize because We aren't torganized.' A little reflection
is fatal to that theory. I'm willing to hazard the guess that
Negroes are about the best organized people on earth. The
Negro who doesn't belong to at least a half dozen assorted
clubs, .fraternities, social conclaves and churches is a rare Great
ue indeed The fly in the ointment is that most of the or
CARNATIONS are working at cross purposes.
Real Problem
The real problem before us is to get unity so that these
various organizations can chart a common course. If that is
done I'm quite sure that we can do something by way Of solv-
ing some Of the problems that beset us. Before such a course
can be mapped out It is necessary to determine just what the
main trouble is.
There are differences on that score but pretty general agree
ment can be obtained around a program looking forward to
the alienation of the economic disadvantages from which we
suffer. Out Of this economic maladjustment grows that wide
variety Of civil and political ills about which complaint is so
general.
Genuine Representation
The proposal to call a Negro National Congress is a step in
the right direction, as the boys who write editorials are fond
Of saying. As | understand it the Congress will be called
early next year and will include representatives Of all kinds Of
Negro organizations as well as enlisting the aid of groups of
whites who are willing to pitch into the battle. Surely such a
gathering could determine just what is to be done and set def
mite tasks for groups commensurate with their strength.
1t is obvious that if the Congress is to be the success it
deserves to be it must be genuinely representative. We have had
enough of self styled and self-picked leadership. Every church.
club and organization where a half dozen Negroes are banded
together ought to pool resources and plan to send a delegate
to speak his piece.
United Action
The very process of preparing to choose delegates will set
the tone OF the gathering. By the time the necessary 10000
points OF order and demands for information are sifted ont. the
program and platform Of the Congress will have been pretty
well determined and the sentiment of the people will have
become plain.
As see II, this Congress will not serve to break up exist
ing organizations or supersede them in any manner. Rather
IL VIII gather all OF us together and help us unite on a minimum
program Wmch Will leave every group free to pursue its own
program, while it centers all efforts on the things o. which we
can agree And that's what we have been saying we want.

OMAHA, NEBRASKA, JULY 9th, 1885
Mr., c. G. Galloway,
Dear Editor:

THROUGH Mr.. Sutton, your circulation manager, [
subscribed for The Guide a month, but we found the paper so
interesting that we extended it for a year.
You are giving Omahans a worthwhile paper that we
can send or show to out of town friends and feel proud of it.
We always find the interesting affairs for Sunday and the
week through The Guide. | hope that Omaha will enlarge the
society page by giving you their articles instead of out of
town papers that cut them 2 or 3 lines, or often ignore them.
A few words for Mr.. Sutton, who comes to your door
with a pleasing personality and earnestness for The Guide. |
hope that he Will not be denied an interview by anyone. We
can help him to build a good race paper by subscribing for The
Guide, weekly, monthly or for a year.
Sincerely,
