Below, it is the following state

President, the need for an investi-
cation, as authorized by the ESQ

groups of this Country, Including
several colored organizations, such
as the National Negro Council; the
United Government Employees,
headed by Edgar G. Brown; the Ma
tional Negro Publishers Association
and the we Are Americans Too
Conference. The need for a fair
and impartial investigation is also
supported by some of the outstand-

such as the New York Times. It

I do not know who advises the
President of the United States on
the problem of color. 1 do not
know who he is, where he comes
from, what his perspective is, nor
the width and breath of his men
tally, nor the extent of his know
ledge and experience. But whoev-
er he is, he is rendering a disser-
vice to the Negro and to his coun-
try if he is either incapable or I'M
willing to face the facts written IN
blood in Detroit, Mobile, Beaumont,
and only Heaven knows where
next it shall be written. These
facts are:
l. That a compromising laissez
-faire policy in respect to the Ne
groes fundamental rights as citiz-
ems, breeds contempt for law and
order.
2. That the persistence Of Sc
gregation and discrimination on
the basis Of race and Color in the
Army, navy, marine corps and
various departments Of the federal
government Serves to strengthen
those elements of the population
intent on the propaganda of Nazi
Concepts of racial superiority in
America.
8. That these elements are in
reality in the minority but they
are highly articulate and vocifer-
Gus and must be dealt with as any
other subversive elements whose
actions r contrary to the war
aims of the American government
4. That the President himself
must take positive action to crush
these "copperheads'' who create
dlsunity at home and embarrass-
ment abroad.
