NEGRO HISTORY WEEK
GAINS v

An unusually fine spirit of
cooperation has been shown
by the state and national ed
vocational magazines in plac-
ing the Negro History Week
observance among the impor-
tant concerns of the school
year. The notice taken of the
celebration by the educational
monthlies of the South has
been especially helpful. The re
suit therefore, is that the pro-
gressive teachers of both races
in the North and South where
ever the Negro population is
considerable, have become act
i've in making preparation to-
ward this end.
Much interest is been shown
in Pennsylvania, even in parts
where the Negro population is
negligible. Philadelphia is ar
oused. New Jersey schools are
just as active at various cen
tiers as those across the line.
The New Brunswick, N. j.,
schools are to work out IN con.
nection with Negro History
week, a project in the contri-
button of the Negro race to
American cultural life.

THE DRUNKEN DRIVING
PROBLEM

Newspapers mold public
opinion faster than any other
agency and should be enli ted
in the campaign to end drunk
en- driving" says W. A. Cab
riclson, Honolulu police chief,
in a paper read at the recent
National Safety Council.
1t is reliably estimated taat
drunken driving ha at least
doubled since the repeal of pro
hibition. Todey Ii is one of the
principal causes of motor ac-
eGdents. Surveys carried on in
various states indicate that Ii
quOr is a factor i'm 10 to 20 per
cent of all accidents involving
n fatality or a major injury.
In the words of the Chief of
the California State Highway
Control, the drunken driving
evil continues to grow una
bated.~- Intoxicating liquor
is playing too great a part in
the present mounting death
TOLL. .-"
The "alcohol mixed with gas
oline' problem must be attack
ed from a number of angles.
In many communities police
and prosecuting authorities
are more or less indifferent to
it and are prone TO let a lit
tie pull reduce a serious
drunken driving charge. While
proven scientific methods for
establishing whether or not a
person is legally intoxicated
are we'll known, they are not
widely adopted, with the re
suit that many eases are taken
10 court without sufficient evi
dence to justify a convection.
Worst of all, perhaps, a large
part of the public eondones
drunken driving by refusing
to demand rigorous and impair
taal laws and methods to de
tect and punish it.
Alcohol at the wheel kills
thousands of Americans each
year-and Injuries tens of thou
sands. It must be stopped.

Northern Senators

ments in favor of the bill and the
present strategy. Senator Norris
stated that a hlibuster could be
broken by a strict and technical en-
forcement of the rules. It was
pointed out to him that an anti
lynching bill removing the threat
of mob terrorism was a proper ad-
vance step for the social legisla-
ton for which he has morked for
many years. The Senator was nom
committal, but it is believed that
he will not permit himself to be the
spearhead of an attack on the bill
next week.
Southern Dailies Aid Bill
One of the most encouraging as
poets of the fight thus far has been
the steadfast support of many
leading daily newspapers in the
South. In fact, the southern daily
papers have fought the flibuster
much harder than the northern pa
pers. Chief northern paper to turn
tai and run was the New York
Daily News which declared editor
tally in plain language m support
of the bill several months ago, but,
after only three days of filibuster-
ing, announced that 1t had been
convinced by the southerners that
the bill was no good and %thereupon
changed its opinion. On the other
hand, such southern dailies as the
Louisville (Ky.) Couricr-Jounal,
tie Richmond (Va.) Times-Dis-
0etch, the Greensboro IN. c.
Daily News, the New Orleans
tLa.) Tribune and the Statesville
IN. c. Landmark have condemn
ed the flibuster in no uncertain
terms and stated that the southern
senators did not represent the SEN
tim mt of the South. Editorials
from these papers viii be introduc-
ed into the Senate record at the
proper time.
A conference of leading sup
porters of the bill last night re-
affirmed the strategy which has
been pursued for the past two
weeks, that is, to keep silent and
allow the filihusters to make their
speechcs without opposition will
tend to extend the flibuster and
may isad off into extraneous dis
cussion.
The southerners would like no
thing hetter than to get the Sem
ate in a hot and prolonged debate
on the race question so that the,
issue of the mt -lynching bill
could be pushed in the background.
The supporters have no intention
of being drawn into such side ar
guments and at the right time will
maxi their speeches on the bill and
reply to such legitimate arguments
of the fEibusters as have been ad.
vanced.
Editors Lobby for Bill
Among those who have been here
lobbying for the bill this week are
Robsrt l.. Vann, editor of the
| ittsburgh Courier; Carl Murphy
editor of the Afro-American; and
Mrs. Vivian Osborne-Marsh of
Berkeley, Calf, grand president of
the Delta Sigma Theta sorority.
The national Bar Association has
sent letters to all its members urg-
ing the utmost cooperation with
the fight.

PRINCIPALS would like not only
to sponsor the celebration but
would introduce the syhtem-
attic tudy of the Negro. This
has actually been done in sev.
eral cities IN Ohio and certain
schools of Indiana and Illinois
are working toward the some
end. The board of education of
Chicago is requesting that all
books hearing upon the Negro
be submitted for consideration
in those schools.
Farther west the need\ Elk
prI sed show a widening inter
est in the effort. Mrs. Helen
Walker IN the white schools IN
Kirksville, Mo, wants material
ial to be used in teaching a
unit ON Negro literature in her

Miles of the Central High at
st. Paul, Mimi, asks for data
that the International Rela-
tons Club of the institution
may present to various groups
a, sembly programs Oh the Ne
gro's contribution to American
life. Mrs. Edna Breazle of the
Roosevelt High School IN Seat

information on the background

teachers not only concede the
Negro a place in history but un
dertake to in tify if to their
ella ses.

lie is planning with the aid of
school officials, to have pro
grams throughout the state.
lie says that Negro History
Week has never been given ap-
preciable degree of considera-
ton on the coast. He reports,
however, that there has been
developed in the last four or
five years, a racial conscious
ness with a racial appreciation
which if nurtured and inspir-
ed will accomplish much in ra-
eial progress. He believes more
over, that one of the method
by which this may be accom-
pliShed is Through types of
programs which are usually
carried out during NegroHiS-
tory Week He is, therefore
arranging programs bearing
upon various aspects of Negro
life and history.
In the South itself, evidence
of the effect of the movement
has been shown as usual by the
Officers in the state depart
ments of education especially
] concerned with the work am
ong the Negroes. In this class
belong the very active officials
in Virginia, North Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana,
and 0klhoma. Miss Willis G.

interesting the white schools in
