 AMOSKEAC PLANT

Manchester, N. H., July 10-(UP) Recognizing the apparent inevit- ability of liquidation of Amoskeag Mfg O., state and city officials to- day turned toward salvaging Man. chester's textile industry. Efforts will be made either to lease the Amoskeag plant to some other con- cern or to divide the plant for use by smaller industries. The plant known as the country's largest single textile unit, closed last Aug ust, throwing 11.O00 operatives out of work.

however, DR.. w. T. Love received
an appointment as county medical
examiner in the Coroner's office, a
position he still holds.
These appointments serve as an
entering wedge and mean much in
the future planning of the Negro
Physicians of Detroit to secure
public office. In every case the doc
tors who have filled the above men,
toned offices have rendered service
above reproach. Even the delicate
problems which were anticipated
did not materialize. They render
service to all groups, and the only
embarrassment, if such you may
call it, has been the tendency of a
large number of the clientele to
specify to please send DR.. So and

Cooperation,
Legitimate and
Legitimate
BY r.. NJ. GOAIGHTLY

There are two forms OF COOpera-
ton practiced in business ventures
and otherwise.
One kind is characterized by the
desire of the more fortunately stu
ated to gather about them persons
who may be of use in carrying out
a plan back of which is the motive
of exploitation of those associating;
while the power of control remains
in the hands of the more power
full. The idea of democracy is elm
mated or geatly minimiZed. There
is no desire to really help those
less powerful, but the main idea of
this type of cooperation is to dis
tribute the risks of operation over
a large number, without the de-
mocracy in management or con-
troll. This is the type of coopera-
ton which has been most familiar
to most of us, and of which we
first think when the word is used
or presented Instance after instance
of the effects of this type of CO
operation has been referred to when
one presents or attempts to present
the subject of Cooperation" Most
people can point to the failure OF
cooperative ventures here and else
where, with which they have been
previously identified. They have
never known of the true meaning
of the word cooperation" and as
compared with true cooperation, the
type just described is illegitimate.
The real meaning of cooperation
embraces the fundamental idea OF
true democracy. Wherever true co
operation is practiced, there is also
found true democracy. The idea OF
exploitation is only applied to the
individual who exploits his own
possibilities for his own use anc
benefit, and solely from his own eff
forts. In true cooperation, one does
not seek to exploit his fellows, but
rather to help him. One does moi
seek to stop or check his neighbor''
progress, because each step forward
by his neighbor enhances his owl
position in the social order. There
is no struggle between two or more
persons for the same thing as is the
case with illegitimate cooperation
but rather there is a struggle Il
create more for the benefit of all
so that none will have to suffer be
cause of scarcity, and that thu
things produced may be distributed
more equitably to those responsible
for their production. Real coopera
ton favors distribution rather thai
concentration, and does not seek t
promote itself at the expense o
anyone. 1t takes nothing from any
one, but gives everyone the benefit
of his own efforts. It opens tn,
door and keeps it ajar for thos'
who have initiative to enter and t
develop themselves as they hav,
the capacity. This is legitimate co
| operation.

School Trustee
Insults Negroes
karwOwski Speaks Disparagingly
Of Negro JOb-HOlder

Henry Karwowski, of Ham
tramck, who last June was re-
elected to a four-year term on the
local school board, probably ex-
pressed last Monday the feeling of
some of the other men who serve
as trustees in Hamtramck's schools
toward Negro citizens, the largest
minority group in the city.
Mr.. Karwowski, who was also a
candidate for common council in
the recent election and was defeat
ed, said: why should l do any
thing for the colored citizens, when
they did not give me one vote in
the last election ?"
He was speaking to a Tribune
representative, regarding the small
representation which local colored
citizens have in the Hamtramck
school system. The Tribune report
er, in reply to Mr.. Karwowski's
statement, pointed out that ii would
be logical to assume that the col
ored citizens were guided in their
voting by his record as a school
trustee, because they knew he had
the opportunity to show his friend
ship toward the group, but had not
done so. 1t was also pointed out to
Mr.. Karwowski that in all the
Hamtramck school system, there is
only one Negro employed. To this,
the school trustee calmly replied:
Maybe he should be fired"
Mr.. Karwowski's Indifferent at
titude in the matter, recalls TO
mind the report made last year by
Mrs. Sarah Vaughn, a civic leader,
disclosing that out of 369 en-
ployees in the Hamtramck schools,
there was only one Negro. Mrs
Vaughn's report also showed at
that time that the school board had
contended there were no openings
for colored applicants for jobs;
while during the same time they
appointed to a teaching position
William Choplan, a resident of
Highland Park.
Mr.. Karwowski has given colored
citizens of Hamtramck another
reason for joining the Tribune's
"Self-Respect" campaign in this
community, and helping GUST these
school board members who are
bent on keeping our girls and boys,
who have graduated from the high
schools, from jobs which are
rightfully theirs.

GREATER
PEOPLES LEAGUE JOINS
DRIVE FOR RESPECT
Committee Convenes
Wednesday Night:
Citizens Back Move

The theory that to gain respect
you must first demand it, seems to
| be true in the case of the Tribune's
Self Respect Campaign, now under
way in Hamtramck. Since this
campaign was launched two weeks
ago, aid and support have been com
ing from all angles of this move
ment. Not only from members of
the race, but from those OF the other
race. Last week the People S
League, through their official organ,
THE Voice of The People" followed
the lead OF their Councilwoman
Mary Zuk, and offered their aid in
the colored citizens drive for self
respect.
Said the Peoples Voice: I'VE
believe that the poor whites are
travelling the same road as the
Negro citizens and should unite
with them to fight their common
oppressors." The editorial cOntin-
ued to praise Leroy White and
the Detroit Tribune for their fore
sight in inaugurating the cam
paign. They call upon the colored
people to affiliate with them, and
they pledge to aid in the election
of the race candidates for public
Offices.
Leroy White, under whose super
vision the campaign is being con-
Quoted, said Tuesday, in reply to
the offer of the Peoples League:
I'VE appreciate the offer of the Peo-
MAJ, I hnf I In, N
position to accept that offer with
out the consent of the majority of
the colored citizens. If it is their
will we will affiliate with their or
ganization." White also announced
that the first meeting of the Self
Respect Committee will be held on
Wednesday, April 22nd, at the Tri-
bune's Hamtramck Bureau, 3051
Yemans street. All those who are
interested are invited to attend this
meeting.
Meanwhile, partisan politics in
this movement seems to have been
forgotten as political leaders of all
descriptions flocked to join the self
respect camps. Isadore Green who
holds the title of Unofficial Mayor
and one of the chief aides to former
Mayor Joseph A. Lewandowski,
says: THE main point is to unite
the Negro in one common cause of
electing their own. Our only hope
is in Independent politics. | am

Eugene Butler, assistant city as
SCISSOR and unsuccessful candidate
for constable, says: The Self Re-
spect Campaign is fine thing. l
am for it. The wishes of the ma
jority should be followed"
Rosa PhilpOt, clubwoman and
civic leader: II sincerely hope that
this movement wins success. You
have my support"
Ordiane Toliver, assistant city
clerk: Il am for the Self Respect

The colored students of the
Hamtramck High School seem 70
think that the pictures recently
taken by the school officials were
for some other reason than those
designated. However, this has been
investigated and is untrue. The
question of racial prejudice does
not enter into this. These snap
shots are to be used in the recon-
mendation Of graduates for jobs.
