Tigers Win,

Beet Yonks. Tribe
Whips Griffs Twice

ONEW YORK, Sept. 12-(R-
Through no fault of their own
the Detroit Tigers were two
games out of a first division
berth in the American League
scramble but they hoped to i'm
prove on that mark today.
With big AL Benton going all
the way, the retiring league
champions finally subdued the
new titleholders, the New York
Yankees, 5 to 4, in IL innings
yesterday, but Cleveland, by de-
feating Washington twice, in
creased its grip on fourth place.
Southpaw Hal Newhouser.
who has been knocked out of the
box in his last several appear
ances, was called upon to hurl
the second game against Ernie
Bonham.
New York and Detroit match
ed runs in every inning until
the final frame and the victory,
given some added color by Ben
tons first hit since 1889, left the
two clubs all even at 10 games
in the seasons series.
The Tigers are the only club
the Yankees have been unable
to dominate this year.
Dutch Meyer and Rudy York
divided seven of Detroit's IL
hits. Meyer collected four, in
Guiding two doubles, and York's
swat included his twenty-sixth
home run of the season.
Marius Russo, who went the
route for the Yankees, struck
out IL, but he aided in his own
downfall with a wild heave of
a sacrifice bunt in the twelfth.
Charlie Keller, Yankee out
fielder, sprained his ankle slid
ing into second base in the ninth
and will probably be out of the

Duty or Rights?
by Charles Stelzle)

Since the birth of the American Re-
public, we have accepted as supreme the
doctrine of 4.the right of liberty and the
pursuit of happiness" In our systems
Of jurisprudence, and in our treatises up
on statecraft and sociology, the empha-
his has been upon the rights Of man
kind We have been hearing aboct the
rights of the child, the rights of women,
the rights Of capital, the rights of labor,
civil rights and political rights
In the Bible, however, there is prac-
hcally no reference to the rights of man.
The emphasis there is upon duty. :"
When the strong oppress the weak, we
Immediately cry out that there has been
a transgression of rights. The Bible de-
clares that the law Of brotherhood has
been violated.
Does this mean that we are to do
nothing-to simply wait until the op-
pressor, whoever he may be, sees his
duty? Not at all Whenever an infring
ment of right neglect of duty occurs
it should be brought to the direct at
tention Of the individual, group or nation
involved and an opportunity given to
correct the commission or omission. II
this is not done, steps should be taken to
see that it is stopped and the rights
are upheld and the duties enforced.
Human rights will never suffer if hui
man duties be performed. Duty then,
and not rights, is the supreme need Of
the hour. For the doing of ones full
duty will carry one farther along than
the mere granting of another's rights.
Gradually. men are coming to learn this
important truth. Man demands justice,
and he is right But God demands more
than justice-His Imperative is Love.
And love is the fulfilling of the law"

The situation is serious. With
Turkey and Russia capitulating
to Hitler 1t is getting more and
more serious. With this NATION
torn by our American Quislings
we are not getting anywhere in
particular. The national behavior
of this country so closely resem-
bles that Of France, that it makes
us shudder to imagine what a
day may bring forth. We are face
to face with a revolution the like
Of which has not been dreamed.
Nobody with the slightest histor-
ical perspective will imagine for
a moment that democracy will
die forever. This is impossible.
The taste Of this "way Of lifen
guarantee its Immortality; but
this does not blind us to the fact
tnat temporarily the sun OF de-
mocracy may mourn.
At any rate prolonged eclipse
may see the Negro further sub
jected and possibly exterminated.
The revival of lynching in Flor
ida shows what is lurking in the
mind, and natures of certain ele-
ments in this country. The "go"
sign they are waiting for will
come from Hitler and let us not
delude ourselves on this point.

The time is at hand when we
must face the ugly fact that de-
mocracy has it's back to the wall.
Things are serious indeed and
only the simple can ignore this
Solemn fact. Hitler is about to
make a clean sweep Of Europe
and then only God knows what
will happen. One by one he has
subdued the nations. Turkey and
Russia inspired the hope that
sure; but there is every evidence
they might withstand his pres
that they are ready to capitulate
to Hitlerism.
It is high time that this coun-
try was buckling down to the
task of preparedness. With Lind
bergh playing the role Of hecklei
and with Wheelerism continually
muddying the political waters;
with strikes bristling from one
side of this country to the other
and with explosions and what
nots occurring daily, we are in

self we are lost. The facist and
nazi ideology is threatening the
whole concept of democracy
With the passing of democracy
the hopes Of the Negro race will
fade, for only under democrat
ic regime can the Negro hope to
achieve in the future. The prog
ress the Negro has made in this
country would have been impos-
sible if there had been no demo
cratic ideologies Of government.
If the outlook for democracy is
dark, the outlook for the Negro
is darker.
Without democracy the Negro
is futureless. If the current adeo-
logies Of Europe are worth fight
ing for, how much more is de-
mocracy worth fighting for and
if need be, dying for. The fact
that only 90 years ago men
fought to make the world safe
for democracy that fell snort
of perfection should not hlipsi
this nation to the fact that by
fighting we have had 90 mo-
years Of democracy. These 90

that was bought with the price of

worth all it cost. The fight for
democracy was not lost therefore
