METHODISTS SPEAK

Bishop Robert E. Jones who presided over the
Lexington annual conference of the Methodist church
which was held here last week made a magnificent
analysis of that oft debated theme today "The Negro
and the War" With natural eOquence he pointed
out that the American Negro has significant role to
play in the fight for democracy and freedom How
ever much, he declared, we are incensed with the
abuses of democracy we must remember that we
still live in a country which has democracy its
ideal Our fight is to make this ideal work in the
practical life of the nation.
Bishop Jones secuted any suggestion of appease
ment of the antidemocratc forces in America today
which are menacing the race and jeopardizng the
war effort upon which depends the national exist
ence He warned the Methodist ministry that now
is the time to speak out against the abuses Of democ
raccy and to get into the vanguard of the militant
race leadership.
We believe that Bishop Jones expressed the deep
convictions of the masses of our people and pointed
the only clear for the future. This is
and this is our country We must and will fight to
sustain the ideals which be maintained only with
untirng vigilance 1t is our duty to the nation as
we'll as to our own racial group OF strike at the
eitades of fascism in America, to denounce Hitler
ism at home and to make democracy living thing
despite her enemies. In such course the interest
Of group and the best interests of the nation converge
as one one broad highway for the future for all.

BOOK NOTES
By GERTRUDE SCOTT MARTIN

A new book by Countee Cullen,
stories OF Christopher Cat called
My Lives and How l Lost Them
was scheduled to come off the press
April Is. We're always little hesi-
tant to announce publication sched-
ules because often books are de-
layed weeks and sometimes months
Richard Wrights new book is to
appear soon also.
Even readers who do not usually
like books of travel and explora-
ton will find themselves engrossed
in reading about the head hunters
of Borneo in Black Borneo by
Charles C. Miller Modern Age
Books, New York City, $2.75). In
racy style Mr.. Miller debunks ex-
plorers whom he calls buns with
an excuse, but his book shows that
trip into the interior OF Borneo,
the Apo-Kajan region. is a thrill-a-
minute business.
Mr.. Miller was born in Java and
his father was a captain in the
Dutch East Indies army so that this
trip was one OF many he has made
to Borneo. The Dyaks who inhabit
the region through which the
author travelled to the interior
were once a progressive and in
tellectual race according TO Mr..
Miller. But in the last thousands
OF years they have retrogressed be-
cause Of "adat" or slavish holding
to customs Of their forefathers.
Everything that they do is governed
by omens and the answer to what
makes an omen good or bad Is
"sdat" Many times the reason is
lost in antiquity but the supersti-
ton remains, and the author found
that it was impossible to hurry
them along once they had decided
that the omens were bad.
After a diversity OF frightening
experiences the author does find
what he is seeking. the stone idols,
thousands OF years old. which are
looked upon with suspicion and
dread by the natives. It's the way
the author tells his story that makes
this book good reading. Mr.. Miller
has no illusions about himself or
about exploring so that he presents
what he has seen in down-to-earth
fashion with all the unpleasant as
poets. The sights and smells Of the
villages through which he passes
are real and definitely putrid. The
only times We think Mr.. Miller
loses his perspective is on two
occasions when he talks OF asserting
his position as a white man." In
general, however. he appraises the
natives with the same shrewdness
he turns on the Dutch military men
who travelled a short way with
him.
Divide and Conquer, a new PAM
phlet published by the Office OF
Facts and Figures in Washington, IS

rumors Hitler and the Nazis use TO

The quotation on the inside OF the
cover page from Mein Ksmpt re-

their minds they are more easily
victimized by a large than by a
small lie, since they sometimes tell

DETROIT'S MOVE

Our city presents paradox to the nation. Called
the Arsenal of Democracy because of its industrial
magnitude with its vast factories turning out cease
essy the goods of war; Detroit also has become the
capital and fountain head of American fascsm We
produce on the one hand bullets, guns and tanks to
destroy the enemies of democracy, and yet we give
comfort to all the fifth coumnists and Quisings in
America. We<shake mighty mechanical fist at
Hitlerism abroad and yet we are helpless before
a hometown mob of Kluxers who forbid occupancy
of Soiourner Truth Homes by Negro war workers.
While a million workers pledge to do their best for
the sake of democracy, we must listen to Father
Coughln. Gerald X. Smith and frequent visitor
James Colescott, all of whom surely welcome the
newcomer, Mr., Lndbergh.
Two events of the past week, however, have
strengthened democracy on our home front, the
order to move Negro war workers into the SoJourner
Truth Homes and the indictment of three ringeaders
of the opposition by the Federal Grand Jury At long
last Washington is apparently realizing that this is
no time to pussyfoot around with native Nazis and
appease those who would lose the rather than
lose their preudces The actions of the federal gov
eminent, however, are conditioned by the measure
of support those actions may receive from our local
government, and there is the rub.
The climate of public opinion in Detroit has
been seriously affected by these Quslings who are
preaching racial hatred and disunity, who are in
terested in democracy for gentle whites only. Isl
it not amazing that not of the three daily papers
dares to take clear editorial position on the inter-
national controversy, SOjouner Truth? One might
ask how well do these papers reflect the opinion of
the general citizenry? Too well, we fear is the
answer. The Sojourner Truth issue has been test
of the state of democracy in Detroit and in the
nation 1t has taken the measure of the will of the
people. Why, we ask, have so many chosen to remain
silent?
The federal government has once more placed
the Sojourner Truth controversy in the laps of De-
troiters and appeals have been made to the general
citzenry to settle this fight in manner worthy of
a democratic people. Shall the counsels of the Outs
ings and hate-mongers prevail? Indeed, the dis
position of the housing scandal will indicate clearly
how deeply Detroit believes in the ideals which it
processes The eyes of the world Detroit, and
within the next few days the general ctizenry will
have opportunity to cast its lot with democracy
or with fascsm.
have opportunity to cast its lost with democracy
or fascism
