to them where darker races are
concerned.
England has no moral right to
control India, but India is a rich
market upon which Britain fattens
itself through exploiting a darker
race that seems hopelessly divided
by caste system. Just as South
Africa is crushed under the heel of
British Imperialism, India has
somehow managed to annoy the
yoke of Britain by producing lead
ers like Gandhi and Nehru who
were willing to sacrifice their lives
in the cause of freedom for their
people. South Africa has not yet
produced a black Moses to chal-
lenge the English.
During the last war, when India
furnished 100000 soldiers and
some hundreds of millions of dol
lars, the secretary of state for

was the promise made when Ger
many had it's bayonets at the Eng
ishman's throat, and he needed
India then as he needs her now.
Another war has come and India
is still chained.
There was nothing dishonest
about the promise made during the
last war, but it was not honestly
carried out in the new Government
of India Act in 1919. Hindus were
still far too sparsely admitted to
higher office in their own country.

Negro Press is dishing it up and

it's 115 years, it's in a position to
shape events, and it's producing in
the clutches. White government Of
ficials can't wait It'll Thursday to
grab "Negro paper" and find out
how the wind of colored action and
thought blows. Office of Govern
ment Reports subscribes to 25 Ne
gro weeklies and two magazines,
and furnishes white and colored
government officials with thou
sands of requested clippings on all
subjects, many photostated in
quantity to supply demand.
Two of the "big four" Negro pa
pers have Washington editions and
offices. Another maintains Wash
ington correspondents. Associated
Negro Press has an Ace Cores
pondent in D. C. and serves most
of the local papers including only
Negro daily paper in the world in
Atlanta. There are four tabloids.
Two editors have grown old in the
game and are near 80.
Dismayed, big white advertisers
find they can no longer dictate pol
icy of the papers. Every election
year the number of Negro papers
selling out to Democrats or Repub-
licans, decreases. With fine impair
TALLY, the editors give hell to the
government, industrialists, poll
ticians, advertisers and anybody
who discriminates against Negroes.
It's a grand thing. Stand up,

serve the support the public gives,
take a bow.

Wants Wilkins to Name
Names
April 8, 1912.

April 8, 1912.
Editor: Reference is made to
the reprint in the Spokesman of
April 3rd of an article by Roy
Wilkins.
I agree with the attitude ex-
pressed by the majority of the Ne
groes attending the conference in
Washington on March goth that
our government must afford all of
it's citizens democracy before it has
the right to expect enthusiastic
support for the war from all.
I complain, however, to Mr..
Wilkins evasive reporting when
he states: "That only one man
spoke out-for 100 per cent bury
ing of the complaints of the race
and 100 per cent war against Hitler
and Japan, with the settlement of
complaints after the war;"
I feel that it is the duty and of
the essence of good accurate report
ing to actually name those urging
such conduct. Wilkins readers are
entitled to know who among the
alleged leaders are again ready to
accept promises for future delivery
of all too needed present rights.
And we are also entitled to know
the names of the organizations per-
hitting representation by such a
Judas.
When the press gives such full
information, regularly and without
equivocation, those kind of spokes-
men will soon be discredited and
men and women appreciative of the
responsibility of leadership will
come to the front to demand fear
lessly those privileges of Ameri-
can citizenship, which have all too
long been denied to the Negro
people.
It seems incumbent upon the
Editor of the Spokesman and Re-
corder to furnish US with the in
formation which Mr.. Wilkins failed
to give.
Very truly yours,
Jonas G. Schwartz.

ence, and the riots and outrages
House of Commons, but the British
politicians admired him for his
firmness in handling the India stu
alton" and subscribed $4,000 as
gift to him. Of course, they as
sessed the Hindus to pay General
Dyer for killing them.
Gandhi, an English-trained Hindu
lawyer and hitherto very friendly
to the English-he recruited for
them during the last war-was en-
joying considerable prestige in the
Indian National Congress when the
last promise of "self-government"
was made. When Gandhi called for
a showdown after the Kaiser had
been whipped, Britain's mind went
continued until the British sent
commission under Sir John Simon
to investigate.
The Hindus complained that they
were not represented on the Brit
ish commission, and when it vague
ly reported that it was desirable
that India should gradually attain
the status of a Dominion - like
Canada and Australia-the Nation
al Congress, again led by Gandhi,
demanded complete self govern
ment at once. A campaign of "Civil
Disobedience" and boycott was
started and in>that year more than
$4,000 Hindus were fined, or like
Gandhi himself, imprisoned. The
most powerful political party in
England is, and has been for many
years, the Conservative Party,
which cherishes the medieval max
i'm that "what we have we hold" or
that no part of the Empire shall be
lost. The freedom of India, there
fore, is essentially a struggle of
Hindu and British Conservative
politicians. India has many political
plums which can be traded for
strength and power in Parliament.
India has no faith in Winston
Churchill, whom they term "solid
white god, functioning in the inter-
est of white people only" Then Mr..
Churchilrs first speech in Wash
ington was commented on in India.
He said: "The British and Ameri-
can peoples will for their OWN
SAFETY and the good of all walk
together side by side in MAJESTY,
justice and peace" An England, a
United States, walking together in
majesty" can only mean to the
darker people of India a white i'm
perialism more dangerous to them
than the stewardship of Japan with
it's yellow imperialism.
These are some of the problems
that Sir Stafford Grips is facing
now in trying to win over India to
the English cause. He has wired
back for more power to make more
promises. But India is holding his
feet to the fre-with the threat of
Japan's bayonets only a hundred
miles away. Lies, they say, can be
laughed off, but truth is a sober
thing. India wants the truth now,
and Mr.. Churchill is worried, be-
cause Japan says it will give India
today what England promises it
tomorrow elf-government.

The white boys from England were
crowding in and getting all the fat
salaries from the fruits of midas
labor. There followed the epidemic
of riots and outrages which culmi-
mated in the crime of Amritsar.
General Dyer-the Iron-fst-has-
tily ordered his troops to fire upon
the crowd, killing 400 Hindus, and
he was not only absolved by the
blank on the issue and they told
Gandhi to go home and be a good
fellow and advise his dark COM
panions likewise.
He proposed to meet the English
with what he called spiritual
force: to boycott their schools,
stores, law courts, etc. The mass of
Hindu people, not being so spiritual
as the Mahatma, put too much
vigor into the campaign against
the British, and it failed, and
Gandhi went to Jail for two years.
In his homeopathic policy he at
tributed it's failure to his own i'm
perfectness in the spiritual life,
and Gandhi retired from politics
for six years.
The program which Gandhi adj
vocated comprised the revival of
native weaving, a long drawn out
process against the British sweat
shop method; the suppression of
alcohol and drugs, an equal moral
standard for men and women, the
unity of Hindus and Moslems
$4,000 of the latter were killed by
Hindus in one quarrel), and an end
of the ostracism of the 100000
