Schuyler ToIks

GEORGE S. SCHUYLER, jour-
nalist and author, New York City,
says:
"Here are what I consider to be
the most significant developments
in Negro life in 1886:
II. That Negro athletes swept
the Olympic Games. This en-
hanced group prestige and self es-
TEEN.
"2. That Negro voters turned
on Senator Borah and ruined his
presidential ambitions in key
states.
"3. That cotton picking ma
chimes demonstrated their ability
to pick cotton. This invention may
revolutionize American Negro Life.
~. That Tuskekee Institute ea-
tablished a School for Chefs. The
most forward step it has made in
years,
"5. That Major r. r. Wright
Of Philadelphia was able to make
such progress with the importa-
ton and sale of Haitian coffee, the
first important intraracial COM
merce internationally.
"6. That 100000 Negro World
War veterans got over a quarter
billion dollars, the largest lump
sum ever received by the group,
and expended it, in the main, in
telligently.
"7. That despite civil rights
laws in over half dozen States,
Negroes scarcely disturbed Jim
crowism, continuing to dodge
trouble by only going where they
thought they were wanted. Per-
haps this indicates growing indif-
ference or spinelessness."

is not problem Of any particular
racial group, but of all those who
are economically depressed. We
have got to raise the standards
Of living for all those who in any
way are underprivileged.
"The ability to benefit by edu-
cation requires home life and sur
roundings of a certain calibre. Tt
also requires decent standards Of
health. We must face the prob
lem of how we can get adequate
medical care for those in. low in

faced it seriously yet. For where
ever any group in a community
is forced to exist at a very low
standard, that group becomes a
menace to the community.

alone. They are a problem Of our

A Bank Teaches the Nation


The Dunbar National Bank, now
in its ninth year in Harlem, nears
the four million dollar mark in
assets and the three million mark
in deposits. It is generally known
that the bank has succeeded, sure
ly and quickly, largely because it
worked sympathetically with the
people of the community in which
it. operates. It has promoted a
colored man to the post Of assist
ant Vice President and Manager
of the banks only branch, and
has just announced, for the New
Year, the promotion Of another
colored man to the post Of AS
sistant Manager of this branch.
In the main office Of the bank
many of the employees are color
ed, and those employees range
through all departments.
The Dunbar Banks President,
Mr.. c.. c. Huitt, a man Of quiet
dignity but Of liberal as well as
sound views, has said he hopes
the record Of his institution, which
is principally owned by Mr.. John
D. Rockefeller, Jr., will inspire
other wealthy men, in other cities,
to have faith in the Negro and
give him an opportunity for de-
velopment in the all-important
field of finance.

The Record Speaks

At the close of the old year, all
Of us had an opportunity to see
just how important it is to the
group as whole for some Of us,
during a given year, to break some
kind Of a constructive record. We
saw Jesse Owens paraded at the
top of the list in the sports mara
thon. Who could help but feel
proud Of this achievement, and
what colored man or woman, boy
or girl, did not feel thrill of ex-
ultation when the cold record
forced people who, otherwise,
would not notice a colored man,
no matter how good and respect
able he might be. The record Of
Owens and what followed shows
that we simply must put our
shoulder to the wheel, and by some
herculean effort, go over the heads
of everybody else to the front
rank, and here shine for the bene-
fit of all Of us. Only a few can
do it, but those few should feel e
their duty to do it whenever they
can. They should not shirk, nor
should they give, up easily be-
cause the going Is a little tough.
There Is too much at stake to quit
for shallow reasons or thin ex-
cuses. After all, one young man
raised the Negro group in America
20 worldwide attention. No mat
Ger what the sacrifice, it was
svorth It.
On the other hand, 1t would be
unfair to us not to point out that
most of our record breakers seem
to be individuals. We do not seem
to do things together very well.
IN short, we do not cooperate,
neither in work nor play. Many
people question the amount of
time and energy put into our grid
iron clashes in our schools and
colleges, but this writer believes
it is good thing If for no other
reason than that it is teaching

canoe from the address of Secre-
tary Roper is this: Among the
things to be stressed is a
proper measure of race pride and
the common virtues of life to sus-
tain that pride"
President Roosevelt sent q let
ter to the Conference, in which
he declared: I'm the administra-
tion of the affairs of government,
I have continuously endeavored to
keep in mind the interests of the
Negro race as part of the total
problems Of social betterment. I
am sure that the results of your
conference will prove Of inestim-
able help in achieving this end
I shall await with great interest
the report which you plan to sub
NIT to me-"
Promoters of former conference
es on the problems of the Negro,
such as the Fact Finding conven-
tions at Durham, and the Han
hedrin Of Prof, Kelly Miller at
Chicago must look upon this gath
ering with mixed feelings. At last,
in America, Negro leaders assem-
BILE, practically under the aegis of
the Federal Government, and are
told by the President that he
awaits their report with interest,
and the most liberal views are
expressed by the Presidents wife,
practically indicating to the Negro
leaders just what to ask for, and
limiting as broadly as possible that
they will get it,
If this is not a New Deal, then
maybe we are all in the midst of q
roseate dream.
The Arizona gleam., 1937-01-22

the Negro, on a mass scale, to
work together. The team has to
work together, intelligentlly, to
win. The school knows the value
of pulling for the team. The state
and section is proud when the
championship comes home. An
instance of this was the Virginia
State College boys having tur-
years-a championship feast. Ev-
erybody was happy, from Presi-
dent ]. M. Candy, down.
If our youth are taught the
scientific reason for cooperation in
their play, we will have a better
and stronger group in our racial
and national life when these youth
go out into the world. It Is main
ly because those among us who
have the spotlight today were not
taught how to play together, that
they work together so poorly. That
attitude causes us all to suffer, in
that we get so few champions,
right when we need them most.
