Young Men Needed
These gradutes realize, he said, that
"America's need and the South's
need at this moment is for young
men who are really young, whose
youth is confined to no mere calendar.
Men young enough to see frontiers
and invade them, to discover TIRES
holds and cross them. Men who care
for something enough to die for it.,
love something enough to live for it.,
whose souls know categorical i'm
peratives, and for whom there are
calls they will answer even if it
costs them their jobs.
every unhappy word that comes
to us over the blessed, Atlantic
ocean tells of a fatal gap between
men and the machines Of man. The
radio, the airplane, the miracles of
chemistry, the subtleties of psychol-
ogy, the wizardries of finance, the
marvels of mentllurgy, the most in
genious processes of-trade-are serv-
ing men whose points of view are
dark as inquisition's own and in
whose souls hateful insanity burns.
| "Our immediate task in America
is not to make war upon any people,
within or without our land. 1t is
rather to prove our own institution.
We need to prove that government
by the people works. We need to
preserve and make productive the
competitive econmic system upon

capitalism depend

their Egypt and into promised lana
unidentified, a Canaan unknown,
he said and no Moses worth his
bulrushes would lead SOutherners
out of the South at a time like this,
anyhow, it seems to me.
"He would look about him at the
forests and mines, the fields and
streams, the wealth of human and
natural resources, the warm suns,
the bright moons, brave memories
and dawning hopes, and say this is
your promised land-if you till 1t and
have benefit of the tilling'. Here at
your feet is promised land for you
and for all of America, he would
say, if you take your stand in it for
entitlements against other lands; If
no distant tax burdens you when
you buy and limits you when you
sell; if your goods go to market as
cheaply as those of other peoples; it
the rest of gold is not greater for you
than for others; and if the fruit of
your possessions is permitted to fall
isto your own laps.
"Here is your Canaan he would
say, and one for the North and East
as well-if you supplement what God
and history have given it with what
you can give it; if you walk upon it
in ways of science; if you balance its
agriculture wit Industry and its
cotton and tobacco with food. Here
is your promised land if you educate
your children in grace to inherit it,
if you do justice in it among your
selves; if you trust it enough to put
your own gold into it. Here is your
Canaan if you hold its laborer wor-
thy of his hire, its merchant of his
fee, its farmer of his crop; if you
honor its laws; and if you make 6

problem and hope"

ates that they must proceed to ''parti-

it at once a problem and an oppor-
tunity for America"
He said that, regardless OF how 1T
came about, "the defeat of this pow
erty offers America at once a vast
new market and a relief from agrl-
cultural and industrial competition
based on substandard and distress.
For thee defeating of it, the South
needs science and self-help from its
own people, justice and geseorsity
from other people"
Raising the question of discrimi-
nation, he asked: care we guilty OF
unpatriotic sectionalism when we OPP
pose federal laws, or the admins
tration of federal laws, which in
labor's great name would destroy our
own labor in favor of New England's
or New York's?
"Do we misbehave at nations
love feast when we refuse the other
cheek to Wisconsin as that otherwise
enlightened state proposes that there
be federal asd state taxes to choke
our cottonseed oil and federal law
to deny us substituting herds and
hay?
Matter of Freight Rates
"Do we upset the apple cart of
national unity when we ask that there
be freight rates which let us go to
the great markets of this land as
cheaply per mile as our competitors
in other regions go?
care we indelicate when we de-
mand, for the agriculture which is
still happily our principal way of
life, balances and offsets to federal
favors granted, 10, these many years,
to the industry which is the way of
others?
eff these things were sectionalism
then the need would be for more, not
less. But they are not They are
regionalism They are EXPRESSIONS of
our regional needs and deserts, and
in serving them we serve America
for we contribute to solution of

Mr.. Graves declared that the South

economic inventory-its export trade
in cotton. 1t is attracting industry,
and with it the jealousy of power

1T is inviting agricultural science
and diversification, and with them
the alarms of other powerful regions
which see their farm markets threat

Question of Negro Vote
Its Negro problem is being made
acute by the suddenly developed fact
that the Negro vote in the North and
East is. more important than the
white one in the South to the only
politicaE party in which the South
counts.
with the hand of government up
on nearly every process, social, eco
nOmic, moral, and local, it is poll
tically outnumbered and has lost its
thirds rule.
with education never SO neceS-
sary for survival, it has more child
re nto educate and less money with
which toTdo it, than any other region
Erich in natural wealth and I'M
developed purchasing power, it is
burdened with a comparative pow
erty of man and land"
He concluded that whatever the
ansfers to these facts of Southern
life, "they justify increasing regional
science, regional self-help, and reg
ional d-taking".
Referring to the suggestion of the
National Resources Committee thai
in its present economy the South
would be served if from three to six
million of its inhabitants moved tc
some other place, Mr.. Graves di-
rected attention to the fact the COM
mittee did not say how they woulc

There is no sound reason for judg-
ing the South guilty of hateful and

said the Birmingham editor, who de-
livered the University's baccalau-
reate address before a large audience
in a twilight setting in beautiful
Kenan Stadium.
The University presented degrees
to a class of $50, who had just been
told by Mr.. Graves that they faced
"the most exciting and uncertain
world that ever received a gradual
