BRUTALITY TO JEWS AND NEGROES

'N'
President Roosevelt recently pro-
tested against the persecution of
Jews In Germany and stated that
he is shocked by the treatment
they are receiving in that country.
The good and humane citizens in
our beloved Southland have been
lynching and burning Negroes ev-
er since the Civil War, and are
still doing It. and nobody. not even
the President, seems to be shock
ed.
II Is strange how repulsive cruel
~ can become, when we see II
inflicted by somebody else. We
shudder nj the persecution OF the
Jews and Chinese. and those in
authority In our country don't hest
tate to speak out against It. At the
same time. they condone by their
silence, worse brutality In our own
country.
No fair-minded person condones
persecution in any form. and the
Jews have our sincere sympathy.
II Is difficult to see. however. n
there Is much love for Justice
floating around. why so little Is ac-
corded to Negroes. Is II because
the Negro Is considered to be so
insignificant creature. that he Is
insensible TO pain and the finer
things OF life? Surely. little DIFF
ference In color cannot be the rea-
son.
Charity should begin at home.
Don't condemn the other fellow
for the beam In his eye until rid
of the one In your own eye.
Two nations who are protesting
against the jewish prosecutions
In Europe are England and the
United States yet both OF these
nations have been equally cruel
TO other peoples. Great Britain has
killed countless thousands, in her
ruthless quest for wealth and
power. In india, men were chained
10 the mouths OF lannon's and
blown TO bits, as an example TO
other East Indians Regarding what
