Everybody knows where Nazism
stands and what to expect of it.
Cruel as it is, and dangerous as
it is to civilization, it is less cruel,
and it may be even less dangerous
in the end, than the sort of
democracy which is not real
enough or strong enough to prac-
tice what it breaches. To destroy
hope utterly is kinder than to al
low it without intending to let it
be fulfilled.
Patience Waning
The Importance Of facing the
situation between white and col
lored people in our own country is
twofold-it is upon this rock that
our own ship of democracy may
go down first, and upon this rock,
too, that all peoples may divide in
to the ultimate enmity.
Everywhere in the world the col
ored peoples are asking each other
if they must forever endure the
arrogant ruling white race. They
feel they have been very long pa
tient, but they cannot be patient
forever and they will not.
In India such men as Nehru,
now again in Jail at the hands of
white men fighting for democracy
in Europe; in our own country, col
Ored Americans, as intelligent and
well educated as Nehru, barred by
their color alone from an equal
chance with white Americans to
earn their living or to defend
demOcracy-there is a deep, subtle,
dangerous relationship between
them. We are foolish If we do not
realize it.
For in many educated eOlOred
Americans, h0pelessness results not
in simple crime but in a rejection
of patriotism. There are those, and
some of them leaders, who favor
Japan in the present crisis,
seeing in Japan the future leader
of all cOlOred peoples in the world.
There are those who prefer Hit
Ter to British imperialism, feeling
that If English rule over eOlOred
races can be destroyed, then Hitler
can be dealt with afterward as the
less established evil.
At home and abroad the white
race has the choice to make
whether it will follow the totai-
tartan principle Of ruler and sub
ject races, even to the inevitable
end of rebellion and the worst of
wars, or whether peoples Of all col
ors will decide to work out ways
of living in mutual harmony and
freedom.
Crisis Near at Hand

ored and white peoples at this mo-
ment. It is idle to say that the

FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE

Dear Editor: Faith is supreme
so let US have faith in our govern
ment. Don't let our government
down. Defense is of paramount i'm
portance. We may or may not
agree with it on every issue but
let US keep pace with the majority
and fight fire with fire. There are
some things that must be done as
a state of war exists.
Respectfully yours,

keep the issue hushed and hidden
and apart from the thinking of the
mass of white people. The crisis
approaches, whether white people
are willing to know il or not. It
approaches in the world, and with
that memorable march our own
people are keeping step.

Hypocrisy Seen
I am, 1 think, realistic and OBJ
iective on this matter of race, haV-
ing lived most of my life among
colored peoples. My own ancestry
is entirely Southern, and am very
familiar with the problems Of white
and colOred in the South.
l do not, however, believe their
solution is to be found in what the
average white SOutherner says, In
the familiar patter, that the col
Ored man is a childish creature, de-
lightfuI enough in his place, who
only wants to be taken care of and
fed and sheltered and treated kind
". That the cOlOred person in the
South often glibly falls in with
such assertions means nothing.
The colOred person is afraid OF
his white master and says what the
white man wants him to say. The
same colored man quickly expresses
himself in totally different terms
as soon as he changes his locale
and is relieved of his fear.
But be that as it may, the real
point is that our democracy does
not allow for the present division
between a white ruler race and a
subject colored race, and we ought
to make up our minds as to what
we want and then move to &C
complish it.
If the United States is to include
subject and ruler peoples, then let
US be honest about it and change
the Constitution and make it plain
that colored cannot share the priv
ileges of the white people. True,
we would then be totalitarian rather
than democratic; but if that is
what we want, let us say so and
let US tell the colored people so.
Then the white Americans will be
relieved of the necessity Of hypOe-
risy and the eOlOred people will
know where they are. They may
even settle down into n dOcile sub
Jet race, SO long as we are able
to keep the weapons of rebellion
from them-and these include edU-
cation.
As an American, / should deplOre
any such thing, and yet the world
needs this sort of Qualification
Democracy now suffers from vague
ness because of the lack of relation
between principle and action. With
all the evils that HitIerism has, at
least it has one virtue, that it
makes no pretense of loving its fell
bowman and Of wanting all people
to be free and equal.

Ward off Winter Driving II|s-HeIp Conserve Gasoline
with new CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS

Here's quick relief from the Paralyzing
effects of cold weather on cars using old,
worn-out, inferior quality spark plugs,
which cause hard starting, sluggish per-
formance, poor gas mileage-new Cham
pion Spark Plugs!
Old plugs-spark plugs that have been
in service 10000 miles or more-invite
trouble. Carbon enCrusted insulators,
burned electrodes and compression leak
age rob all spark plugs of their efficiency.
This results in hard starting, rundown
batteries, poor acceleration and loss of
power and speed. Economy Of operation
disappears. A new set Of Champions
Evening star., 1941-11-09

will not only ward off these winter driv-
ing ills, but in addition give YOU that
imperative extra gas mileage required
by our national gasoline economy pro-
gram.
Outstanding among Champions many
patented features is the sensational Sill
ment seal which banishes troublesome
leakage common TO ordinary spark plugs.
Since leakage in spark plugs causes them
to overhead, resulting in pre-ignition,
rough, unresponsive and wasteful engine
operation, you can see how important
it is for you to insist on Champions
the spark plugs champions use.
