The whole history of miscegena-

of the propagandists so far as Ne
gro Inclinations are concerned. :.
Miscegenation, which gave birth to
the Mulatto Race, had its beginn-
ing under early colonial conditions
when white men, racially alien
settlers, invaded the Colonies of
the Darker people for the purposes
of exploitation of their resources
and the RECOMMENDATION of their la
Dor, taking no women Of their own
with them. Without consent or
inclinations of the Dark people
the Whites forced their unlimited
affections upon defenseless colon

There is a cure for all Of earth,
Known as the Master Plan.

Of peoples in distress.

For such now runs in flood.

Ere man his life can expiate,

And learn the Master Plan.

Shall live with men in brotherhood,
And humbly walk with God.

INTEGRATION VS.. MlsCEG-
ENATION. This would be an
ideal legal title for case of two
averse parties in litigation. For
it represents, truly and accurately
the contemporary situation in our
own homeland. 1t represents
case of perpetual conflict between
FACT on the one side and PRO
.PAGANDA en- the other.
The Propaganda side, first, tells
its story. And, truly enough, its
proponents have an audience much
more vast than is the audience OF
the second side. This, moreover, is
not due to the fact of any auth
enticity of the first story. For il
such story were placed upon the
scale of blind justice alongside the
Real Evidence which refutes it, it
would be weighed in the balances
found wanting. But, because the
proponents of the Propaganda side
in our country are sufficiently art
full to color it so as to make IT
appetizing fer their consumers
precisely as the Nazi propaganda
lists have done in Germany and all
Europe during the dictatorial era
the majority peoples of our ma
ton, more gullible by comparison
than more unenlightened Euro
peans, have accepted it without
of it's veracity and with
out notice of the Real Evidence to
refute it. The story that the pro-
pagandists would have the world
believe is that the ultimate am
billions and innate desires of the
Negro Citizens of this Country, in
their unrelenting fight to enjoy
the sum total of their Constitu-
tional Guarantees are to mix and
mingle with the white citizens OF
this country on an equal social
footing; to recreate our whole
basic social philosophy which is
equally an inherent integral OF
both races; and to start anew
upon an unrestrained course OF
INCARCERATION, which is the
illicit intercourse and inter-breed-
ing between the races. Such an
allegation may be most CURLY de-
scribed as a complete reduction
from the sublime to the profound
ridiculous. And, this fact is well
known by it's white proponents. :.
But these falsities are Indignantly
disseminated by them for one pur-
pose only, that is, to keep secure
the upper position of the capital
istic forces of this country over
the working people of this nation,
Black and White alike; to perpet.
ually maintain a wedge, by the
perverted process of racial anita
gonism. between the white and Ne
gro working citizen both of whom
constitute the vast majority of the
national populace, and who by viz
tue Of their commences Of eco
nomic objective would, if rightly
informed, find ground for COM
plete interracial unity to the end
that the whole of the working pop
ulace may rise to a higher stand
ard of living and to full economic

SEGREGATION

Segregation is practiced in America to make the Ne
vro feel subordinate to the whites which practice has caS
ed considerable confusion and has advertised America to
outsiders as everything but a democracy.
Now here comes a Joe Foster, Representative from
Lonoke county who himself with lot OF false
pride on plans introduce legislative bill that would re-
quire Arkansas bus lines to add conductor to their We
hces as Of enforcing the segregation of WHITES
and blacks while passengers the vehicles.
Joe Foster wants to be sure that the Negro and the
whites kept separate by providing fine under the pro
posed of $25 for the first ofense and $500 and
pententiay for the second oense Now for the
Honorable Representative to waste legislators time and
PAYERS money at this crucial period over little mater
of segregation would be sabotage well unnecessary
for if he is representative of the white to enforce
segregation law is unnecessary for the Negro knows well
enough as to whose company he wants to keep.
