HERE and
THERE
By W. M. Smith


This columnist is disposed to
chisel a little this week and there
fore invites you to read something
from some of the widely known
writer's of the Pittsburgh Courier.
Dubois in his Pittsburgh Courier
column says that the present intel
Ggence of the Negro religious
group makes it an easy prey for
any clever fanatic and the length
to which it can be led is measured
by Negro Encouragement and hun
ger and the wish for artificial slim
ulant and food. He cites Father
Divine as an example. Much of
truth in this, but something of
error also. Father Divine's follow
ers contain as many white as col
ored people. And they don't seem
to lack food.
In fact, as far as my observation
goes, hungry Negroes are as rare
as Negro beggars. Dubois need
not have confined himself to re-
igious fanatics. / have seen any
number of accepted intelligent Ne
groes led by the nose into some of
the most stupid actions, like play
ing policy, Twin Citians take no
tice.) .... .......... ...... ....
Geo. Schuyler, caustic critic, but
frequently correct diagnostician of
the group, in his column of the
same paper calls attention to the
unfortunate prejudice of his people
in the fundamental field of agricul-
ture.
His thoughts are evoked from
reading Thomas C. Campbell's "The
Movable School Goes to the Negro
Farmer" Mr.. Schuyler bases his
remarks upon what he terms the
mis-education of the Negro youth
who has been Systematically taught
to look down upon farming as a
desirable means of subsistence,
than which Mr.. Schuyler declares
there is nothing better or more
fundamental. He calls to mind the
important fact that agriculture
produces most of the wealth of the
Negro and will be responsible for
much more when there is larger
percentage of educated leadership
in that field.
Mr.. Schuyler concludes his inter-
esting column thus: cit is difficult
to find a Negro in the north owning
an acre of land or COW, but there
are thousands owning automobiles
and expensive radios. The same

fact our press run was larger than
