Can give thanks? Can in all honesty celebrate

So speak the gloomy souls. They know all of

annual festival of thanksgiving for the years blessngsbut
they do not see the blessings
Last year at Thanksgiving time they
would be at in few weeks-they set the dateso

point, that the licensed stock
brokers deal in futures and stocks,
often times never actually held by
them.
1t takes large sums of money to
go into competitive business and
these Negro men get such money
without the legal sanction granted
licensed stock brokers. remember
hearing one of the Soundest Ne
gro business men tell of the
hardships encountered by qualified
and ambitious Negroes in getting
business credit. AS 1 remember he
said that the ratios were 5 to / for
white and to / for Negro busi-
ness men.
FIND ANOTHER WAY
These odds are not sufficient to
blot out the possession of high
quality brains, ambitions, and
aggressiveness in Negroes. In other
words many Negroes are surcharg-
ed with the desire to prove that
different color of skin does not
prove inferiority. So if the routine
of democratic society prevents them
from achieving by the established
rules of the game they are likely
to find a way out. You know, find
a way or make one". Dynamic in
tellect and ambition have a way of
not being denied.
1t is generally true that once
the numbers kings are established
in the financial world as figures
OF consequence the convenient mem
orieS of society" forget the ways
in which the initial capital was
gathered. These erstwhile bankers
become masters of the fate of a
considerable group of the masses
and the pet lions of Negro so
ciety"-not exclusively Walter Win
chell's Cafe Society either:
1t seems as though the Ameri-
can plan of democracy is for all
groups within its borders except
Negroes. They are being forced in
significant numbers to develop pro-
tective ways of life contrary to
their profeSsed religious and moral
beliefs. The privileged status given
the number kings" is the proof I
submit for the present.

Watch Russia

THAT THE UNITED States will
in the not distant future become
a dictator nation, is becoming more
and more a dreadful possibility
There is grave danger that we are
going to be destroyed by the de-
vious game of politics which con-
gress insists on playing, while the
fate of democracy hangs in the
balance. AS Patrick declared to
the Colonials, we are listening to
the song of the sirens until she
transforms us into slaves. The
siren song of German propaganda
has lulled our nation to sleep; and
We are joined to our political idols
in such way that we seem incab-
able Of looking over a critical sit
uation.
Isolationism and obStruoUionism
have handcuffed our defense efforts,
and it has remained for much abus-
ed and much maligned Russia to
save the faces of the remaining de-
mocracies. 1t makes us sick at
heart to imagine what would have
happened to Britain without the
respite of Russian arms. 1t makes
us even sicker at heart to imagine
what would have happened to the
United States with Britain flat
tened by German fury. Whether
we admit it or not, we owe the
Russians deep debt of gratitude
for relieving the pressure on the
democracieS.
NO RESISTANCE
Even today we cannot feel proud
OF the part Britain is playing in
RuSSia's defense. Her air raids are
becoming more and more desultorv
and there is nothing to suggest that
full advantage is being taken of
the respite that the Russians are
giving. In Britain as in the United
States, there is a lot of charges and
counter charges by one political

ENJOYED SPEECH
What I'm wondering about, is
whether Willie and Floyd's aunt

Pm wondering about this. be-
cause I know that if she was there
she enjoyed that speech 1 made
Everybody there said she did And
I refuse to believe that, since she
must have been there. she would
have said if she didn't mean it, she
enjoyed that speech especially
when she had had the good for
tune and good sense to be the one
who, in the month Cf October,

couple million bucks (Which

/ have said that While and
Floyd MayWeatl1er are in the May
time of their lives. Logically it
would seem that I should say that
their aunt, at 65, is at life's au-
tumn. But, wait! This cannot be,
for the simple reason that
woman IS or whatever, can't be at
the autumn of life with a couple
of million bucks to spend or give
away. There is entirely too much
living one can live and too much
stuff to stuff ones life On under
such conditions, to talk about the
autumn Of ones life.
Besides. a couple of million
bucks makes its own weather; and
Willie and Floyd's aunt may have
far more resl Maytime in her, at
SIS, than both of them put to-
gether. And anyhow, who wants to

Playing the numbers" seems to
offer hope for the growing number
of diSpoSSeSSed Negroes. This is
evident by the religious" zeal with
which they play the numbers.
These folks buy dream books for
the purpose of translating their
dreams into lucky numbers. They
have produced an unprecedented
demand for cheap magnifying
glasses which they use to dis
cover the hidden lucky numbers"
in certain printed matter.
They patronize fortune tellers and
"voodoo" doctors as dispensers of
the right combination of numbers.
They note carefully every seeming
ly unusual event in normally rather
dull lives for clues to be translated
into lucky numbers.
BECOME BANKERS"
This fanaticiSm for the num-
bers'' has opened up an avenue of
large income for the more intelli-
gent adventurous and astute of
the Negro masses. They become
bankers. This type of banking is
an even more lucrative business
than legitimate banking because it
is free from legaliStic controls. 1t
is exceedingly, profitable up to a
certain pOint-the more balanced of
these bankers" are beginning to
sense the attainment of this point
and quitting the business. A for
mer banker" told me that he kept
his income taxes paid, thereby ELI
mlnating any interference from the
federal government. When the local
authorities convicted him the first
time he figured that it was time to
quit and husband the future in
Sured living which he had prepared
for himself and family.
The bankers" with real business
ability and acumen accumulate big
money hurriedly and invest it wise
ly. Because of their wealth they
soon develop prestige equivalent
among Negroes to that of licensed
stock brokers among whit people. 1t

It's services range in scope from
helping worried recruit reach the

of a coast-to-c coast chapter pro-
gram geared to produce 40,000,0OO
surgical dressings.
To perform these services it must
have considerable funds; hehce the
roll call for membership: this is
its principal means of raising
funds. 1t is no longer a participat-
ing agency in community chests.
The demands on the Red Cross
during this emergency are greater
than the community chests can
meet. Millions of dollars will be
required for direct aid to meet the
distress brought by modern war
fare, in which the civilian popu-
iation shares. as never before in
martial conflict, in fatalities and
injuries, equally with the armed
forces. Millions of dollars also will
be required to support the morale

lief organizations sponsored by the
government are in a quandary as
to their next steps.
1t is more than ever evident that
there is a definite need for WPA,
CCC. NYA despite all of the war
time boom in manufacturing.
Scrapping these organizations
will throw even more Negroes
out of their own resources or to
starve, for the proportion OF
Negroes on these projects so
far Outweighs their population
proportion, and their length of
time on the projects is the full
time allotted, indicating be-
yOnd any doubt that the need
among Negroes is just as great
as ever despite claims thst
Negroes are being employed
elsewhere il, large numbers.
The great wave of prosperity
has not as yet reached the Negro
although efforts are being made
to see that they get fair share
in the general issuance of work.
NO CUTS SHOULD BE
MADE
But with all of this, no cuts
should be made in these appropria
tions, for it would represent a
false economy whereby deserving
and needy persons would suffer
even more greatly than they now
are doing.
II is imperative, it is felt in
certain quarters, tina. the WPA
among all other agencies should
be given a full appropriation

Big manufacturers, talking in
