MITCHELL AND NEGRO
CONGRESS-

Congressman Arthur Mitchell
provides one OF the best reasons
why there should be a National
Negro Congress.
This gentlemen who prldes him
self on the fact that he represents
ChIeago's wealthy white ''lcop sec-
tlon,- means 10 leave no doubt that
he will serve his Democratic chief
talns-and not the Negro people.
Although he could yell the roof
off of congress, what has he said
against the growing oppression Of
Negroes? He has nothing save a
contemptuous sneer for II. II. 1927
the only unemployment and social
insurance bill which provides for
the 6,000,000 Negro wage-earners.
Not one word has he uttered
against the outrageous frameup OF
thel Scottsboro boys and Angelo
Hetpdon. All of these issues in
volYe the life and death rights of
the Negro people.
Nbt content with this shameless
record he has now set out to nip
th6 National Negro Congress in the
bud. He has begun Hearst red
scare" at Howard University be-
cause Of the recent conference
held there on the economic status
of the Negro under the New Deal.
Out of this conference came steps
for d National Negro Congress.

become a matter OF public concern.
One unique and important point
about this struggle which the por-
ters are waging is that IL is the
first national trade union among
Negroes in America and will be
the first to have successfully Crap
pied with great modern indus
trial corporation.
When and II the Brotherhood
wins. it will be the first time that
a group Of Negro workers. under
their own leadership have con-
quered powerful industrial and
financial corporation, such as Pull
man. Incorporated. When It is re-
membercd that among the board OF
directors are J. p. Morgan, r. X;
Mellon, Alfred p. Sloan, George r
Baker. Harold S Vanderbuilt,
George Whitney and others, Pull
