MARK ETHERIDGE

Mark F. Etheridge, member of the Presidents
Fair Employment Practices Committee, opened the
first committee hearings in the South at Birming-
ham with speech that is as dscouraging as the
latest war bulletin. After attacking Negro news
paper editors who demand "all or nothing" he de-
clared: HE (the Negro) must recognize that there
is no power in the world - not even in all the
mechanical armies of the earth, Allied and Axis -
which could now force the southern white people to
the abandonment of the principle of social seq
regation."
Mr. Etheridge has struck the keynote of the
next revolution in America for this defiant Hitherto
attitude which announces to the world that the color
bar is sacred must end in tragedy. He tells the
Negro soldier who faces death on the field of battle
that even his supreme sacrifice will not lower at
all the color bar of Dixie. He is telling America that,
though we deserve some jobs and new opportunities
because of the nations need, in reality this is a
white mans war. He says in effect that our fight
against the color bar is futile and that we may as
well realize our impotency in the face of this great
wall of color.
Indeed, he has laid the basis for racial war,
because the Negro people of America along with
the coored people of the world are threatened and

WAR HYSTERIA

The impact of war upon America has had many
unfortunate results, but none is alarming than
the steady rise of racsm, the increasing concern
over race and color The Japanese attack upon
America stunned the nation and revived all the racial
bogeys which we had hoped were on their way to
oblivion Last week California organization sought
through the courts to exclude from American cit.-
zenship all Japanese, Chinese, Hindus Hottentots
and islanders of the Pacific" Though American
BORN the organization questions the right of these
people to hold American citizenship.
1t seems to us that such chauvinistic campaign
runs completely counter to the spirit of democracy
and may be the opening wedge for attacks upon the
citizenship of any minority that happens to be ont
of grace with the dominant group. They may even
question the rights of the American Indian to hold
citizenship now that we noble Americans have
robbed him of his natural home and penned him
up in reservations
To deny citizenship to an American born human
being because of his racial origin is to declare oneny
to the world that our democracy will not support
the very principles which we constantly profess.
The fact that we are at war on world scale against
the racist doctrines of the Axis should be enough
to keep us from adopting their racial philosophy.
The further fact that the Chinese and other Pacific
people are our allies in this war against fascism
should make such proposals dangerous and menace
to our national welfare.
After six months of war, we still have not
learned that not necessarily the chosen people
of the EARTH and that unless treat all peoples and
all races in manner that becomes true democracy,
we may so shape the course of this that victory
will not only be delayed but perhaps impossible Such
proposals wrong in principle and absolutely dan
gerous under our present circumstances.
The Michigan chronicle. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1936-current, 1942-07-04

challenged to cringe or die There will be no pea ce
for white or black anywhere on earth until these
man-made barriers of color blown to hell Ghandi
of India has said that we in America are morally
unfit" to wage a war for democracy as long as we
maintain the color bar. Mr.. Etheridge's South will
die for this democracy only on condition that the
Negro be kept in his place"
The southern white man becomes the tragic
child of the human race. He is destined to defeat
and he carries in his vile heart the seeds of his
own destruction We of the colored world will fight
as we have always fought, and we shall not rest
until the South and the world are free of racial
tyranny Neither God nor the reason of man can
give comfort to the cancered minds of these human
"haters" who predicate their destiny upon the OPP
preston of an innocent people.
The color bar must go in America, and we shall
not be deferred by the vain shouts of laundering
prophet who is tickle and false.

THE OLD MASTER
PETRY FISHER SAYS

Michigan, the great arsenal of de-
mocracy, have indeed been fortzI-
nate in having such statesman as
Senator Brown representing tn EN-
in Washington. 1t was my honor
10 stand on the City Hall steps with
Senator Brown in 1896 listening TO
a speech by the greatest President
that America has ever had and who
has no peer in the entire world
which is. now looking upon him as
the greatest humanitarian it ltas
ever known. am not much Of
biblical student but l believe that
in view OF the fact that President
Roosevelt was struck down by a
disease that is in most cases 100
per cent fatal that God in His wis.
DOM preserved him for the land
Of this free am the home of the
brave spd. also for all liberty loving
people Oh the entire world.
Senator Brown has been favpr-
able and fair>w:..h the colored peo-
pie of Michigan spd the United
States and has never Sefrsed to see
delegation & colored\ people and
many individuals that sought his
help in matters pertainine>to the
welfare OF our people have breen
taken care of. That in itself shonld
stamp him as qualified and liberal
10 all classes of people. In contrast
we have Senator Vandenberg, The
great isolationist servant of 'hhe
special interests which hive
opposed the President in many in
stances to the detriment Of The
country. As far as the colored people
Of Michigan and the United States
are concerned, they simply do not
exist He h. ever supported amy
measure for the welfare and nd
vancement OF the colored people;
he has never spoken in a campaign
or at any other time to a group of
Negroes. He. like many Repulli-
cans, has always received the votes
OF the unthinking masses Of Bible
headed Negro Republicans" that
vote for any man, regardless Of his
attitude, simply because he flies
the banner OF Abraham Lincoln.
Senator Brown was the honord
guest at a banquet at the Saint
Matthews Parish House on Satihr-
day evening, June 26. People Of both
parties were in attendance. Without
a reasonable doubt no Negro that
left that banquet had any donbi
about how Senator Brown stood
in regard to Negroes, and II he hsad
any reasonable pride or race com.
sciousness he should support Seiaa'
tor Brown. Senator Brown hs:

BIGOTRY

THERE IS NOTHING more i'm
portant to the defense of America
today than that of electing to posi-
tons Of leadership in our govern
ment this fall, those who believe in
true democracy; those who realize
that America is a composite of all
races hence must be shared alike
by all races. We must be alert to
checkmate any and all efforts Of
organized bigotry to direct the
affairs Of this nation. A THIRD
FRONT should be opened by the
American people now-directed
toward destroying the wide spread
evils Of bigotry and race hatred
which is doing so much TO under
mine the morale and solidarity OF
the cause for which we fight,
The Michigan chronicle. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1936-current, 1942-07-04

A THIRD FRONT
SITTING IN on an interracial
conference at the Book-Cadillac
hotel last evening where plans were
discussed and drawn up to fight
race hatred and color prejudice in
Detroit war work plants, impressed
me more than ever with need of the
United Nations opening not only a
second front-but THIRD FRONT
against race hate and the color bar.
These are more dangerous to
America and the cause of-the
United Nations than all the forces
OF the Huns" and the "Japs."
Those American citizens who seek
to prevent other American citizens
from enjoying the privileges and
opportunities of citizenship are the
most dangerous enemies to the fu-
ture and security of this great ma
ton and its democratic way OF life,
with which we must contend.
Those whom we should fear most
are the American citizens who seek
to lift white Americans and hold
down black Americans-who seek
to hold aloft white womanhood and
at the same time debase black
womanhoo d-who would protect
the white worker at the expense Of
the black worker-who attempt ia
deal justly with white citizens and
at the same time deal unjustly with
the black citizens.

Small sleeping. country towns.
A loneliness. a vast unrest. 81.
A burning wish TO stand
But once. close close enough 10
touch
The honest soul Of Man.
