Says Northern
Negroes Should Not
Be Sent South

segregation in restaurants, theaters
and transportation facilities brings
the situation to head. A quarter
of century ago, bloody tragedies
at Brownsville and Houston in
Texas and elsewhere in the south
were directly traceable to these con-
ditions peculiar to and familiar In
the south.
mo principle of democracy sug-
gests forcing on anyone an associa-
ton distasteful to him. Individual
prejudice is not privilege, but
right, in private lives. The south
doubtless errs in trying to force
it's prejudices into public concerns
also, but the condition is a fact, not
a theory.
"The federal government ap-
parently has never learned that al
cannot without unfortunate conse-
uuences billet northern-trained Ne
gro troops in the south. Until 1t
does learn that automatic fact, there
will continue to be trouble"

gram at Brownwood or at points
in the south where Negro troops
are stationed. No amount of theory
can refute the hard facts that
the race questions makes the use
of Negro troops in southern areas
an extremely delicate question.
Primarily. the lack of any facile
solution is based on the fact that
both tradition and determination
are against admixture of races in
the south. Miscegenation and Jim
crow laws are not the cause but
the effect of deep-rooted feeling in
the matter that cannot be waved
aside. The concentration of any
considerable number of Negro troops
in communities where Negro popu-
lation is insufficient to absorb their
need for social contacts creates a
condition provocative of disorder. In
the south, too, Negro troops will, of
course, resent contact with civil
laws resigned to accentuate segre-
cation, statutes existing in few places
in the North. Exclusion from or

NEGRO INSTRUCTOR
Q A. L. Burnside, a Youthful
and enthusiastic Negro. who re-
ceived his training in Syracuse, N.
Y, is the WPA instructor in charge
of the project at Tuskegee. He is
responsible for the actual training
of the men under him to service
alrplanes, airplane equipment, and
to learn all of the many angles of
ground service work.
Mr. Burnside teaches regular
daily classes. With the aid of dia-
grams on a blackboard he begins
the course of training by giving
the trainees information on the
functions of the different parts of
planes. Practical experience is
gained by the trainees serving
ships in all kinds of weather. The
trainees not only learn to clean
airplanes, but they check landing
gears, controls, fuel and oil and
other functions vital to the opera
ton of planes in flight. All phases
OF the training, either in the ham
gars Or on the field, are done un-
der the watchful eyes of the in
Structor.
Cround service JraineeS under
Mr.. Burnside's supervision are di-
vided into two groups. Glasses and
instruction begin at $50 in the
morning and continue until $50 In
the evenings. A grounded Stinson
training ship has been placed at
the disposal of the WPA project.
At the Tuskegee Airport, where
these trainees have become a part
OF the ground service crew. are
several airplanes provided by the
U. S. Army Air Forces Other
