"The Most Unkindest Cut"

For years Negroes in this country have
had to resort to all kinds of sychophancy
to hold their jobs with white concerns 1t
was just plain idle talk to say, you must
not do this or that, for it is too much like
Uncle Toming." Workers had to do it or
lose their butter, and the bread. That, of
course would never do. To prevent this
the common laborer and the menial serv-
ant set themselves to a task of self-preser-
vation. That they succeeded is evident
Today, conditions are no better Just
when sociologists and other theorists were
telling us that racial problems were disap-
pearing we find ourselves confronted with
The most unkindest cut Of all Negro
workers are being discharged and re-
placed by white workers. Recently, IN
southern school, in a state where whites
are forbidden to teach Negroes, young
white man has been appointed principal
of a Negro school. Certainly he will not
teach Negroes, but he will receive hand
some salary He will be paid on the scale
of the white principals. Jobs for white
teachers are scarce, and something must
be done about it, So it is being done Ne
gro schools must now tolerate this mis-
chief. In Georgia, and New York, in
Frisco and Dayton the same thing is true
in principle, Negroes must yield their jobs
to white brethren when the pinch comes.
Dismissing a poor people, who can find
little else then menial work to do. is IN
deed the most unkindest cut of all.

Dark Days Ahead

News dispatches tell of the arrival of
Halle Selassie in the hinterlands of
Ethiopia. His return to the country, from
which he fled d few years ago was made
possible by British agents. All of this is
important news, in view of the unfortunate
reception Of the deposed Emperor when
he first went to England. There he ex-
pected to receive protection and defense
IN his attempts to adjust financial claims
against Italy He further expected to
receive military aid, in accordance with
the declarations of the League of Nations.
But he was disappointed in each expecta-
tion
Now England is having troubles of her
own; troubles, in which Selassie can play
a helpful hand. Since England can use
him she gladly sets her agents to the task
Of patching up differences that may have
developed between the Ethiopian ruler
and those Of his Ras, who regarded him as
deserter fleeing from his country when
it was upon its knees in trouble. She
supplies him with military needs and
places him where he can join British
forces in striking against Italian forces in
Africa
This new adventure means dark days
for Selassie. While British forces in Afri-
ca are decidedly superior to Italian troops
there German blocade will make it inn
possible for the English to continue sup
plying its African constabulary In such
an event the Ethopians will hardly be able
to sustain their troops, and Selassie will be

Taft Is Right

The Havana Pan-American Conference
Is oyer. The delegates from South Ameri-
ca are we'll on their way back to their
Southern homes. With them go many pc
cular emotions, probably some conflicts.
When they reach home most of them will
experience some difficulty in explaining
their whole hearted approval of Mr.. Hull's
program. That this IS true was voiced by
Argentina delegate. who informed the
Conference that he must present the Con-
ference agreement to his country's legis-
lative body for acceptance before it could
have the legal sanction Of his people This
Is but an inkling Of the rumblings that
may appear before the war is over
Some of the things attempted at the
Conference appear questionable. One of
these was the plan to guarantee the pur-
chase of South America $ surpuses thru
d Rooevelt appropriation of five hundred
million dollars In commenting on this
action Senator Taft said such a step is
foolish. It most certainly is risky. With
farmers Of the United States sweating be-
cause Of unsold surpluses just what is to
be derived from using the Taxpayers
money to load the country up with South
American beef and wheat? We have no
assurance that we will not be made the
goats in a trade QUARREL between Eur
opean and South American sharks. Mr..
Tafts words may gain significance after
all.

The Real Trouble

When Italy went into Ethiopia few
years ago and slaughtered its defenseless
inhabitants, it had the tacit understanding
with England and France that it's course
had their approval. Two years before
Mussolini ordered his armies to strike, he
had the date marked on his calendar; and
France and Britain knew it was marked.
Ethiopia was member of Britain's League
of Nations and appealed for help, but no
help was forthcoming; and SO the little
empire was subjugated by Italy that tried
out new methods of modern warfare upon
tribal people and gloated over its sue
cess 1t is true that France and Britain
talked about sanctions but this was
hypocritcal gesture to appease the inter-
national indignation that their treachery
rightly incurred.
Today we read that Great Britain with
her back to the wall is acclaiming Ethiop-
la as her ally. The Ethiopia that was sac
rificed few years ago is now hailed as
her conrad in arms. Great promises
which she will never fulfill are being
vouchsafed unto Ethiopia in the hope that
even the little help that Ethiopia may
render in her PROSTATE condition, may re-
lieve some of Britain's pressure. When
so-called mighty nation like Britain seeks
help from poor Ethiopia whom she be
trayed before the startled gaze of a won
dering world, things must be serious in
deed.
IT ii this kind of spirit that has brought
damnation to Europe 1t is this kind OF
spirit that will ever make the nations
mourn. 1t is this kind of spirit that Will
keep this world peopled with Hitlers. So
we are justified in saying that the real
trouble with Europe today is that it has
,een largely ruled by a nation that will
use even those whom she has BETRAYED.
Britain is not interested in the restoration
if Selassie's kingdom but in the nreserva-
fon of her own hegemony. THE REAL
TROUBLE.
