Let's examine some angles Of
this, especially the color angle, and
see how Japan stands ON the ques-
ton. Japan is the self-appOinted
champion of "Asia for the Ash
atics." The Chinese are not taken
in on Japan's scheme to control
Asia, nor are the Burmese, the Fill
pinOs, the Javanese, nor even the
Siamese, and they all resemble the
japanese, and we could add that
they have almost a common racial
interest in the East.
That does not destroy the fact
that "Asia for the Asiatics," a
slogan created exclusively by ia
pan, isn't attracting moral support
for the Land of the Rising Sun and
misleading darker races in other
countries in the belief that Japan
is also fighting in the interest of
the black man against white SUI
premacy. Japan harbors no such
idea.
The only reason why Japan will
not succeed in fully controlling
Asia is because it happens that all
Asiatics hate Japan more than they
despise any white people. Japan is
a ruthless cOnquerOr; its lOrdship
over subdued Korea is hOrrid his
tory. But the idea of ASIA for the
Asiatics" is a good one and itself
is sinking into the hearts Of the
Asiatic races, yet they do not want
Asia for Japan. But they do want
Asia for Asiatics-fOr themselves.
Japan is the warrior of Asia.
Now let's turn to the gentleman
of Asia-China-and see how he
stands on the color question inso-
far as darker races are concerned.
Vincent Sheean, world traveller
and historian, tells US the follow
ing in his comparison of the ORR
entails: The natural amiability of
the Chinese has been q great ally
in this gradual conquest of the
sympathies of Asia. The Chinese
in general are friendly, gregariOus
folk, who like to talk, will discuss

Japanese have little respect for
black folk; especially do they con-
slider the American Negro and the
native African too docile and sub
servient to be considered in the af-
fairs of men beyond the sphere of
a servant or hireling. Japanese
are the most clannish people on
earth.
Transplanted in Western civiliza-
ton where they become excellent
agriculturists, merchants and bank
ers, they almost religiously avoid
dealing with or hiring Negroes to
perform any services for them.
Wherever a Japanese has con-
tacted the Negro as a next door
neighbor on the West Coast, he re-
mains a total stranger to his sur
roundings and doesn't in any wise
encourage the spirit of fraternity.
He will in some instances, how
ever, grant the black man equal
privileges in many of the cafes and
hotels under his ownership, but be-
yond this commercial contact the
acquaintance abruptly ends. He
treats the Negro with contempt
that is silent and biting.
How the American Negro mag
ines he has something in common
with the victories of Japan, and
that his status of manhood rights
will be fully attained through q
Japanese cOnquerOr offers quite a
puzzle in the channel of clear
thinking.
We may, however, realize some
by-products out of this present
world conflict by the white man
seeking our friendship in a more
genuine manner to aid him in main
tanning his world prestige, but the
fact remains that we cannot expect
any nation to go through the
slaughter Of battle, win the victory
without our support, then present
US the blessings Of freedom on a
golden platter. Surely the Japa-
nese are not that magnanimous,
nor is the American white man.

Pegler To Prove
Press SubVersive

New York, N. Y.-Westbrook
Pegler, sour columnist for the
Scripps-Howard papers, was chal-
lenged this week by the N.A.A.C.P.
to prove that the Negro press is
subversive and opposed to the war
effort.
In his column printed in New
York April %, Pegler told of his
examination of the Pittsburgh
Courier, and the Chicago Defender,
and strongly intimated that these
and other Negro papers were in the
same class with Father Coughlin's
Social Justice, which has been
denied the use of the mails because
of alleged subversive tactics. Peg
Ter made some criticisms of the two
Negro papers, but twice mentioned
Social Justice, and twice pointed
out that Negro papers were read
by colored soldiers in Army camps.
After characterizing Pegler's
observations on the Negro papers
as superficial, the N.A.A.C.P. let
ter to the New York World Tele-
gram declared:
1--WE challenge Mr.. Pegler, or
anyone else, to find single dis
loyal or subversive line in any Ne
gro paper. We challenge him to
find any slurs upon President
Roosevelt. We challenge him to
find any assertion that the Japa-
nese were provoked into this war.
We challenge him to find any
praise of Hitler or the Axis powers.
We challenge him to find any sug-
gestion that America ought to have
stayed out Of the war-that this
is not our war. We challenge him
to find any reflection in the Negro
press of the Axis propaganda line.
"The Negro press has urged loyal
support for the war effort. It has
never been critical Of the war eff
fort, but only of the way in which
Negro American citizens are being
denied an opportunity by their
country to participate fully and on
an equality, and with dignity in
that war effort. So the Negro press
resents the shooting and beating Of
Negro soldiers in uniform; it COM
plains justly and logically against
the restricted quota of Negro fly
ing cadets for the Army at time
when the Army is seeking des-
perately to enlist 100000 men in
the air forces; it complains of the
niggardly treatment Negro Ameri-
cans have received from the U. S.
Navy; 1t yells protest after pro-
test at the denial of employment to
Negroes when Donald Nelson is
begging for more and more produc-
ton; it resents a lynching on a
Sunday morning A days after
Pearl Harbor as being inconsistent
with the professed war aims; it re-
sents, also, the doctrine of segrega-
ton which has fathered many of
the inequalities and mistreatments
which the race suffers.
"Does Pegler say that these pro-
tests are subversive

The school system, he said, al

trade schools have been turned
over to streamlining students for
the army and war industries.
They get mathematics and cleo

War education needs were dis
cussed at a meeting of the Ameri-
can Institute of Education on the
War, in Washington, Bow said.
Detroit's schools, he continued,
already have suffered from effects
of the war. Two hundred and
fifty teachers have gone into the
armed services while scores more
have been drafted into govern
ment posts as experts.
ENROLMENT DOWNWARD
Enrolment is still downward,
Bow said, as 1t is all over the
country.
"This reflects the falling birth

the loss of thousands Of students
