AN AROUSED CLERGYMAN

Boston is fortunate to have in the
inner circle Of the cause of freedom
DIR. Arthur Lee Kinsolving, a preacher
Of the word of God and a patriot.
As rector of Trinity Church, Boston,
he occupies position of influence in a
vast and undetermined area. Rev
Klnsloving's sermons often contain
stirring utterances against social inius-
tees and too-long condoned race pre-
JUDGES against colored people, espec-
Tally In the South. His Lincoln Dav
sermon last Sunday in the fashionable
Copley Squar Church rang with truth,
courage and frankness when he said
that thee olored people comprise 1/1O
OF the population but do not receive
proper treatment. At another point
he said, "the white brothers in the
South have been unwilling to kneel in
communion with their colored brothers.
This is giving the lie to our religion"
Phillip Brooks championed the cause
OF the colored man and other under
privileged people and blazed the trail
IN which now walks with courage and
strength, Arthur Lee Kinsolving.

sons to obtain their life, liberty, and
happiness at the expense of the pow
erty and toll of the great majority"
Continuing, the speaker advised his
hearers to become affiliated with the
unions functioning in the industries
where they work, and upon entering
the union to insist upon absolute equal
ity with all other workers. GAS a result
of the work of the Race Labor Com. in
New York City, there is in the Harlem
area trade union army of nearly
10000 eolOred", he said. 'In New
York we have been insisting that those
business institutions which derive their
support and maintenance from the pur
chasing power of the colored, should
give adequate employment opportuni-
ties to colored workers. He warned his
hearers that such a program had its
dangers, however, unless wisely and
cautiously advocated and combined
with a determined struggle against Sc
gregation. For, said he, if all colored
were confined to work in areas where
they are segregated, most of the colored
workers in any community would be
perpetually unemployed, since there
are not enough employment opportuni-
ties available to absorb the colored
workers living in any given area.
In the course of his speech, Mr..
Crosswaith denounced race prejudice
and said that color, sex, and birthplace
are purely accidental, and that anyone
who hated another human being be-
cause of any of those accidental and
utterly unimportant differences was
worthy of contempt.
AT the conclusion of his address, the
meeting was thrown open to questions.
and the large audience took advantage
OF the opportunity to ask a great many
questions.

PASS THE BILL

The proposed "act to prevent dis
cr1mlnation in employment bv public
utilities" should have the support of all
democracy-minded citizens. It is com
monty known that there have been oc-
caslons IN the past when applicants for
work IN business or industrial concerns
have been rejected because of race or
religion, or they have been rudelv in
formed beforehand that they "need NOT
apply. In the case of most of tbe
white groups the ban has been lifted
but there IS no gainsaying the fact that
the colored applicant still has a hard
struggle to find work here in America
which is called the "world's greatest
democracy.
Nevertheless the passage of the anti
discrimination employment bill is de-
manded not alone in the interest of the
eolored group but for the protection
OF all who seek employment in the
public utilities, regardless of the appli-
eants religion, race or color. 1t is we'll
to make sure of safeguards against the
poison of Europe's current race-pre-
Judlee by strengthing democracy in the
held OF employment.

BUSINESS AND JOBS

The need of establishing more and
more business enterprises, though thew
are necessarily small, becomes increas-
mgly important in view of a perman-
ent scarcity of jobs. For social work
ers generally are agreed that, at the
best fourishing level, present business
and industry will be unable to provide
employment for all who desire work
Millions always will remain unem-
ployed
The dearth of jobs means that the

has. The old familiar Jobs are going.
many have already gone, to white work
ers who formerly scorned such en-

other jobs must be created to replace
the jobs the Race has lost.

practical means of replenishing the
supply OF jobs. There hardly is such

THE FASCISTS CONQUEST of
Catalonia in Northern Spain has
rightly increased the number of voices
raised in behalf of Democracy. This
writer truly detests all that is related
to Fascism, Nazism, Ku Kluxism and
all other forms of barbarism and die
tatorship, whether clerical, political or
economic. Upon careful study one is
bound to be deeply impressed with the
close similarity in outlook and conduct
between all relationships. All of them
operate upon the basis that "the ends
justify the means" Some of those ends
may be lofty and even desirable in
spots, but quite often the methods used
in an effort to secure those detectives,
negate whatever is valuable in them
The net result being that mankind and
civilized progress lose more than they
gain.
WITH ALL EMANCIPATED indi-
viduals everywhere, this writer be-
lieves in the principles of Democracy.
1t IS my opinion that only through the
genuine application Of these principles,
that the working class as a whole, and
the COlored man in particular can and
IN time, will be able to free themselves
from all forms of oppression including
economic and political oppression.
MANY OF THE voices we now hear
in behalf of democracy find it more or
less convenient to be silent when
democracy at home is being cruelty
done to death as evidenced by the fol
lowing story which was sent out of
Goldsboro, n c. on February 9 by the
United Press.
WE HEREWITH REPRINT it in
full without comment, because we feel
it speaks loud enough concerning the
genuineness of American democracy
as democracy relates to Colored people
and labor. The lines in capital letters
are simply to impress upon the reader
the significance of that particular pas
sage in the story.

THE DIGEST
By FLOYD J. CALVIN
DR.. BrdWley


We bow our heads in sorrow at the
passing of that lovable and kindly,
able and philosophical gentleman, DR..
Benjamin Brawley. An invaluable
member of our group, and fine and
great scholar has gone to his reward
Former students through the coun-
try can testify to DR.. Brawley's innate
qualities as good friend and wise coun-
sellor, optimist and believer in the
worth and future of his people The
books which DR.. Brawley leaves behind
will be cherished by the public at large
We will revere the memory OF Or.
Brawley for the beautiful personality
that was his; and we will venerate his
works for the inspiration they will give
Tuskegee
1t is our hope that untoward incl
dents at Tuskegee Institute, which are
to be expected in the course Of events,
will not cause any doubt in the public
mind as to the basic value of the Tuske-
gee program or any reflection on the
able administration with which the IN
stitution has been blessed since the
passing Of the founder.
Under DR.. Motion Tuskegee made
notable advances, in both the field OF
education as such, and in the field OF
financial administration. The work
went forward proftably insofar as sup,
port of the school was concerned, and
it went forward quite creditably from
the viewpoint of improving society by
training more and more useful mem
bers of society. Under the youthful but
able and dynamic DR.. Patterson, the
prestige of the school in both the old
fields has not suffered. It financial sup
port has continued, and students con-
tinue to flock there for the training
which DR.. Washington outlined and
projected.

And spirit so forgiving-

And should my bark be foundering
You are by guiding star.

A little more like thee.
