NEGRO CONGRESS
ON CRISIS URGED
Delegates at Meeting at
Howard University In
dorse Proposal.

The $50 delegates attending the clos
ing session yesterday of the national
conference on the position of the
Negro in the national economic crisis
enthusiastically received suggestion
for a national Negro congress to be
held in the near future.
The conference was in Frederick
Douglass Hall Of Howard University
and drew to it representatives from
nine Southern States, the Middle
West and from the Interior, Com
merce, Agriculture and Labor De-
partments. Detailed plans for a ma
tional congress remain to be an
nounced.
Unemployment figures were present.
ed which showed 36 out Of every 100
Negro employables are out Of work,
while the general average. according
to American Federation Of Labor flg-
ures, is only % out of 100.
In a message read by John Herling
of the League for Industrial Democ-
racy, Norman Thomas. Socialist lead
er. appealed to Negroes to join the
Socialist party.
Socialism offers to the Negro all
the hope there is of decent world,
as the race problem in America con-
sists in denial of rights which the
Socialists insist shall be enforced"
Thomas wrote. I'VE must oppose the
idea of the totalitarian state by those
of the cooperative commonwealth.
Hope for colored men lies in uniting
with the Socialists and with enlight-
ened labor unionists who are fighting
for equal treatment of white and col
ored workers in labor organizations
and in the whole economic structure"

E)HEMURGIC" fellowships
4 are to be established in the
4S State agricultural COL
leges II present plans are
carried through. They will provide
for postgraduate research work along
the lines laid down in the program
of the new farm chemurgic" move
ment.
These novel educational enterprises
are still in the formative stage, but
the Farm Chemurgic Council regards
their establishment as highly prob
able. That they will be followed by
"chemurgic" professorships is not too
much to expect, according to inter-
ested persons.
What. then" some may ask, "is
chemurgic? What does it mean?
Why its sudden appearance in head
lines?"
1t is quite safe to venture the pre-
diction that much will be heard of
"chemurgic," much will be written
about it. So far as the average citi-
zen is concerned 1t is a brand-new
word which, somehow or other. caught
the popular fancy and Is making con-
siderable conversation.
It's an Economic Trinity.
+ To those Immediately interested it
is the identifying symbol of the new
American economic trinity-agricul-
ture. industry and science-dedicated
to the solution of the time-honored
farm problem. The triple alliance
intends to do this by forwarding q
practical program which has been
worked out by hard-headed men who
prefer to deal with facts rather than
fancies; who seek to help the farmer
without resorting to Federal legisla-
ton, to appeal to Washington, or to
alluring panaceas parading glittering
generalities. In short, it is intended
to advance the industrial use of farm
products through applied science-and
industrial science works only through
ascertained facts.
According to the farm chemurgic
program, the farm and factory are to
be hitched together, making the
farm something more than food
factory. Farm acreage will be used to
grow crops to provide raw materials
available in industry, with the expec-
tation of increasing farm income by
making profitable use Of surplus acre
age and surplus crops.

II this treaty, which Is now final

would be much to be said for it.
Such an understanding was sought
in the years prior to the outbreak of
the great war in 1914 by the Liberal
government then in power in Eng
land. The ratio at that time was to
be higher, in view of the existing
strength of the German fleet, and
the fact that Germany had a con-
siderable colonial empire. Sixty per
cent of the British feet was the ratio
unofficially discussed, but the nego-
tiations never became official. II

classic Greece. When combined
through Elision, "chemurgic," literal
ly meaning Chemistry at work." was
produced. In its present application
it means science working with indus
try and agriculture.
Book Signalizes Campaign.
This new American word was coined
by one of the most eminent chemists
in the United States, DR.. William j.
Hale, consulting chemist of the Dow
Chemical Co., whose book, The Farm
Chemurgic," published a few years
ago, caused something of sensation
along the scientific frontier and tipped
off, far in advance, the recently ini-
tiated chemurgic campaign.
The synthetic word was known only
to few chemists until a remarkable
gathering of some 300 prominent men,
representing agriculture, industry and
science, met at Dearborn, Mich, early
in May. The newspaper men cover
ing the Dearborn conference picked
up the word "chemurgic" as something
novel and flashed it over the wires and
it made front page headlines in the
dailies of the country.
The Dearborn conference authorized
the formation Of committee to or
ganize a national council to serve as
a co-ordinating forum of American
agriculture, industry and science in
developing industrial markets for farm
products.
The result Of these preliminary steps
has been the organization Of the Farm
Chemurgic Council, now functioning
at its headquarters at Dearborn Inn.
Although the council is but a few
weeks old, its daily mail. kilograms
and long distance telephone calls
have reached numerical proportions
calculated to make radio program
sponsors green with envy, and the
council hasn't q thing to sell and, up
to now, has put out no publicity. The
deeply significant characteristic Of
this daily influx Of mail is that an
unanticipated proportion Of it comes
from manufacturers representing all
sorts Of industries.
1t was to be expected that chemists
and farmers would manifest their in
terest in the council and its work.
But putting across the chemurgic
idea to the industries was looked upon
as a dificult problem. The quick re-
sponse of industrialists to the pro-
gram is but one of the evidences OF
the remarkable countrywide spread
Of the farm chemurgic movement.

and might very we'll have prevented
the outbreak of the war.
But the naval agreement just signed
cannot be examined in a vacuum. 1t
drives a breach, and a very wide
breach, right through the treaty of
Versailles. Under that treaty, the
main German battle feet was limited
to six small ships of a maximum ton
mage of 10000 tons each. Germany,
according to the British attitude, now
officially Endorsed, will be entitled to
five dreadnaugnt battleships, of any
size, SO long as the total tonnage of
the German feet keeps within the
prescribed limits.
In passing. it may be noted that
the German naval authorities do not
at present favor the very large battle
ship, say of the class of the West
Virginia, of $1,000 tons. They prefer
a battleship of about $4,000 tons which
could pass through the Kiel Canal.

whether the conservative
Democrats will break away and have
separate ticket, whom the Republic
ans will nominate, and which candi-
date will win the election. We talk
about all that-and we might almost
as well be talking about the presi-
Dental candidates. of Ulysses S. Grant
or James K Polk. The terms Demo-
crat" and Republican" are utterly
inadequate even family to suggest the
issues that compose next years cam
paign.
What will be decided next year Is
no mere matter of who shall occupy
the White House for the ensuing four
years. 1t has no analogy to whether
in 1928 Mr.. Hoover would defeat ex-
Gov. Smith.
If the people are to understand the
issues of next years election, they
must re-educate themselves in poll
tics-and the process will be difficult,
for the issues are not comparable to
anything with which the average
American is familiar. The issues are
so alien to American ways of thinking
that almost it is impossible to discuss
them In terms Of American speech.
New Commentators Needed.
For adequately informing the counc
try about the politics of the present
and of next year, we should develop q
new school Of commentators. These
commentators should, of course, be
grounded by experience in the ordi-
nary forms and personalities of Amer
ican politics, because 1t is through
our regular political parties and
mechanisms, for the present anyhow,
that the new issues will be fought
out. But the commentators and re-
porters, If they are to keep the people
properly informed, should know also
certain social and economic issues
| which have not before arisen in
America, which up to now have been
as alien to America as the German
tongue, or the Italian or the Russian.
It is not enough to know the familiar
American terms-Republican, Demo-
cratic, tariff, and the like-it is neces-
sary also to understand fully such
terms as the authoritarian state, y
the "totalitarian state" and the whole
terminology OF the new forms Of So
ciety and government that have arisen
In Europe.
