Negro White
Volunteer
Army Div.


New York-A volunteer division
of the U. S. Army open to all men
of any race, creed, color or nation
al origin has been proposed by
Walter White, secretary of the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People to Army'
Chief of Staff General George c.
Marshall.
The suggestion, embodied IL a
letter sent December % to the
Army chief, has been endorsed by
P. L. Prattis, executive editor of
the Pittsburgh Courier; Carter
Wesley, general manager of the
Houston, Texas, Informer; and
William o. Walker, managing cd
itor of the Cleveland, Ohio, Call
Post, all of whom strongly urged
the activities of such a unit.
TIL NAACP urged the War De-
partment to organize the inter
racial volunteer division on the
basis that it will be a practical
step toward giving a tremendous
lift to the morale of the Negro
which at present is at a dangerous
Iy Tow ebb."
1--WE are convinced" the Assoc
iation said, that it would also
have a tremendous psychological
effect upon white Americans, and
it would give the lie to the attacks
made by Nazi Germany and other
Axis powers to the effect that the
United States talks about democ7
racy but practices racial discrim-
nation and segregation"
The NACP also asserted: "A
gratifying number of young white
Americans have expressed them
selves as believing that racial Sc
gregation in the Army is undem-
ocratic and dangerous to Jul ma
tional morale. Our belief in the
practicability of such a division is
based upon correspondence in the
iffice and contacts which various
members of our staff have had
with student bodies ranging from
the University of California 10
Campobello Island, New Bruins
wick"
The suggestion is not original
with the NAACP but was made b.
Claude A. Barnett, director of the
Associated Negro Press at the CO..
ference of Negro editors with Gen
eral Marshall and other War De
partment officials in Washingto-i

idents in Nebraska will be regis
tered in the 20 and 81 year old age

Ter General Guy N. Henninger,
State Director of Selective Service

National Selective Service head

tration in Continental United Stat
es of about 5000, 900 men between

RED CROSS CALLS PREJU-
DICE "A SYMBOL OF
DEMOCRACX,

New York. The American
Red Cross has stated that it not
only does not want, but does not
need the blood Of Negro donors for
wounded sailors and soldiers. 1t
did not stop there, but declared
that individual prejudices should
be respected as a symbol of dem
ocracy.
In a letter to DR.. E. r. Alexan-
der of this city, December 80, s.
Sloan Colt, Director of the Red
Cross War Drive states: Tho
Red Cross is now able to obtain
from white donors enough blood to
keep all the processing plants full
ly occupied so that the total am
cunt Of blood plasma available 10
the armed forces is not lesseaed
by Dur inability to accept Negro
donors"
The letter, which DR.. Alexander
has referred to the NAACP was in
answer to a protest from him -
bout the Red Cross policy.
The NAACP pointed out the
irony in CoIr's statement attem' T.
ing to explain the policy.
After admitting that there 5 .

DEMOCRATIC
WAY. OF LIFE
BY RUTH TAYLOR

capabilities and to have a
chance to develop those capab-
ilities to the utmost. We have
gone far under the capitalist
system, and if we want to see
free enterprise continue we will
have to see that it works for
the good of all. Under our de-
mocratic way of life the COM
mon laborer in factory or on
the farm already has a far hi
CHER standard of living than in
any other country in the world.
Some rabble rousers say that IL
defending capitalism we are de-
stroying democracy. But our
people remember that it was
from behind that war cry that
Hitler destroyed democracy in
Germany.
The democratic way of life
demands constructive action.
We must not be content with
things as they were Of things
as they are, but we must plan
and work for a better world to-
morrow. We have progressed
because our standards have
gone up. We can progress only
as we take steps to insure still
finer things for the coming gen
Grafton.
The democratic way of life
demands conservation. Democ-
racy is not of free gift-it must
be earned anew by each gener-
alton. We must defend our de-
mocratic heritage both from
the enemies without and from
the enemies within Y. .indiffer-
erence, neglect and carelessness
We must rededicate ourselves
to the principles upon which
our government is founded. -.
and live up to them in our
daily life as well as in our pub
lie utterances. We must fight
and if needs be, gladly die for
these imperishable things.
This and only thus will the de-
mocratic way of life endure.
The Omaha guide., 1942-01-17

Make no mistake about it
in war as well as in peace
the democratic way of life de-
mands more of it's followers
than does any other form of
government.
The democratic way Of Ifs
demands thought. It's citizen1
are not ruled by dictates from
a master, but have to govcri
themselves. !. what laws they
have are made by them, so
that there is no alibi when they
fall short. They obey orders
from those whom they have E.
lected to lead them and from
their deputies alone.
The democratic way of life
demands self control. Man is
not restrained by force, bu.
must reason and restrain him
self. He is not trained to war
but by reason of his self
control, he can put aside his
most cherished work to fight
for those liberties to which he
hopes to return.
The democratic way of life
demands education. Not thu
education given to the children
in the dictator ruled state
but the training in thinking
things out and in thinking
things through. Man must
learn to live in a democracy,
He must educate to live with
his fellow man, without regard
to class, race, creed or color, to
cooperate without meddling, to
act in a spirit of fellowship
without any attempt to domin-
eer over the life of someone
else, and to accept the pecul-
iarities of another as he expects
his own peculiarities to be ac-
copied.
The democratic way of life
demands cooperation. In order
to make it work there must be
an opportunity for each citizen
to earn a living, to have opPor-
tunities equal to his natural
