War Food Head
Says Labor Is
Very Essential
Most Jamaicans
Are Located In
Eastern States

WASHINGTON, d. Cts N 81
Reporting that 57,489 workers from
Mexico, Jamaica and the Bahama
Islands have come to this country
to date for agricultural employ
ment, Marvin Jones, War Food Ad-
ministrator, today praised the
ability of these workers and des-
cribed their efforts as being OF
utmost Importance to the produc-
ton of food and fiber for war needs.
AT the total, 43,963 came from
Mexico, 1928 from Jamaica, and
4.698 from the Bahama Islands.
The latter two countries are British
crown colonies and the workers
brought in are English speaking.
BY the end of August, another
3,139 Mexicans will have arrived
to do farm work. In addition, more
than $4,000 track workers have
been supplied by Mexico to the
United States for employment on
railroads, through the efforts OF
the War Manpower Commission.
eve are grateful to these work.
ers for the way in which they re-
sponded to our appeal for their
help in alleviating our farm labor
shortage, and for the valuable as
sistance they have been giving
our farmers" said Mr.. Jones.
jamaica and the Bahama Islands
have made a similar contribution.
Both these countries have small
populations, compared to our own,
and vet they have willingly supplied
numbers of some of their ablest
workers"
Jamaicans and Bahamians have
been employed largely in East
Coast states and in the Middle West.
Some of the principal crops which
they have helped harvest are citrus
fruit, beans, peas, sweet corn, po-
tatoeS, tomatoes, asparagus, sugar
beets, and cigar tobacco. On July
81 the JamaicanS were distributed
as follows: 1912 in New Jersey,
1924 in New York, 1,046 in Wiscon-
sin, 1000 in Connecticut, TAT in
Michigan, 638 in Illinois, $50 in
Idaho, 357 in Minnesota, 314 in
Iowa. 300 in Pennsylvania, 1856 in
Indiana, and 181 in Ohio. The dis
tribution of Bahamian workers on
July 81 was: 1875 in Maryland,
754 in North Carolina, 500 in Vir-
ginia, 1913 in New York, 301 IN
Tennessee, 260 in Florida, 105 in
Delaware, and 13 in South Caro-
lima.
The workers have come into this
country to relieve farm labor
shortages in critical areas under

again. He did not want to talk to
them. They were not his kind. He
felt that they were not here Tor
crimes such as his. He did not want
to talk to the whites because they
were white and he did not want
to talk to the Negroes because he
felt ashamed. His own kind would
be too curious about him. He lay
long while, empty of mind, and
then he heard the steel door open.
He looked and saw white man
with a tray of food. He sat up and
the man brought the tray to the
cot and placed it beside him.
Your lawyer sent this, kid, You
got a good lawyer" the man said.
Say, can 1 see a paper?" Bigger
asked.
well. now" the man said,
scratchg his head. ooh, what the
hell. Ueah sure. Here, take mine
I'm through with it. And say, your
lawyers bringing some clothes Tor
you. He told me to tell you"
Bigger did not hear him; ne lg-
nored the tray of food and opened
out the paper. He paused, waiting
to hear the door shut. When 1t
changed, he bent forward to read,
then paused again, wondering about
the man who had just left, amazed
at how friendly he had acted. For
a fleeting moment, while the man
had been in his cell, he had teIt
apprehensive, cornered. The man
had acted straight, matter-of-fact.

him, amazed.
Don't throw that away, boy.

One of the men picked up the
cross and brought it back.
Here, boy; keep this. This is
Gods cross!"
Il don't care!"
Jaw, leave 'om aIone!" one of the
men said.
They left, dropping the cross just
inside the cell door. He picked it
up and threw it away again. He
leaned weakly against the bars,
spent. What were they trying to
do to him? He lifted his head, hear
ing footsteps. He saw white man
coming toward him, then black
man. He Strengthened and stiffened.
It was the old preacher who had
prayed over him that morning. The
white man began to unlock the
door.

The white guard caught the
preacher by the arm and, pointing
to the cross on the floor, said,
Look, Reverend, he threw his
cross away"
The preacher looked and said:
"tSon, don't spit in Gawd'S face
I'll spit in your face if you don't
leave me alone!" Bigger said.

the guard said, piously touching his
fingers to his forehead, his chest,
his left shoulders, and then his
right; making the sign of the cross.

shouted. His body seemed a flaming
cross as words boiled Historically
out of him. Il told you l don't want

Quietly, the old black preacher
stopped and picked up the cross.
The guard inserted the key in the
lock and the door swung in. Bigger

man IN service who is suppose to

he loves me and wants to marry

Ans. If he were very desperately

would not be writing regularly to
another girl there in your own
community. Therefore, fIo not
make him a promise. You aren't
old enough for marriage and he
isn't old enough to assume the re

chance and complete your educa
ton.

Ans: An excellent idea .outs
wait until your boy goes into the
service before making this change
After he enters the army YOU

Article Outlines
Racial Peace Plan

NEW YORK CITY - (SNS) An
article, How to Prevent Race
Riots" by Winifred Raushenbush, a
soclologist of national reputation,
appearing in the September issue OF
THE AMERICAN MERCURY, de-
tails six steps that any community
threatened with racial trouble can
take to avert clashes of the nature
of the Detroit riot which claimed
"a lives, Is of them Negroes.
Admittedly her article, says Miss
Raushenbush, by-passes consider
alton of deeper historical and eco
nomic consideration" and is Of the
opinion that "the underlying causes
(of riotS) cannot be cured in week
or a year.
The measures she advocates "are
practical steps that can and must
be taken by public spirited citizens
in danger areas. These are emerg-
ency measures aimed to minimize
the duration and havoc if trouble
does break out; and more import
ant, measures to avert riots alto
gether." Following are her suggest
ed remedies:
/. Through newspapers and radio
stations instruct citizens to report
incitory rumors to the proper au-
thorities; g. Check with authorities
to be sure red tape has been elimi-
mated for declaring state Of
martial law Immediately if neces-
sary, 3. Insist that the best train
ed and most intelligent members of
the local police force be assigned
to danger areas; 4. Insist on recre-

IDEA NOT DESTROYED

"GarveyS arrest, trial and SubSe-
quent department resulted in the
dissolution of his movement, but it
did not destroy the popular interest
in African colonization. That inter-
est will never die" Bishop Bell says.
Continuing, he states, American
Negro troops in vast numbers are
serving in Africa. Many of them
want to settle there after the war
is won. They will be intrigued by
its tremendous natural resources.
They will be possessed by the dream
of residence and citizenship, in the
ancient homeland. They will thrill
to the prospect of helping, to build
a state and civilization free of
prejudice and unjust discrimination
based upon color and race.
1T is not too soon to begin to
explore the possibilities of African
colonization of such Negro people
of the Western Hemisphere as
might care to accept it. To what
ixtent and under what conditions
would Liberia and Abyssinia be
open to them?" the distinguished
G. NJ. E. prelate asks. what social,
political and economic reforms may
be effected elsewhere on that vast
continent favorable to the immi-
grafton and settlement of Negro
people from these shoreS?" Bishop

Writing on "LET MY PEOPLE
CO." in the current issue of the
Christian Index, official organ of
the G. M E. church, the distin-
guished prelate says:
IT write this under no great il
fusion. / understand thoroughly
well that many millions of Negro
people west of the Atlantic ocean
have not the slightest interest in
returning to the land of their
fathers. They have never seen
Africa and never care to.
MANY BELIEVERS
"This is precisely as might be
expected. Perhaps it is also as it
should be. Certainly I have no
quarrel to make with any who are
of this mind. I do not even care to
make an argument to disSuade them
from their predictions.
But 1 understand thoroughly
well also that there are many Ne
gro people west of the Atlantic
ocean who have great interest in
returning to the land of their faith
ers. Most of them have never seen
Africa either, but they would like
very much both to see it and to
make it their future home.
81 happen to be of this latter
group. Since early manhood I have
wanted to live and work in Africa
now more SO than ever before.
"The Marcus Carney movement
demonstrated convincingly the
spread and deep-seated interest of
hundreds of thousands of Negro
people in the United States, the
West Indies, and Central and
South America in the 'Back-to-
Africa proposal. No single Negro
and movement since our Civil War
has ever attracted such far-reach-
ing and enthusiastic support in
the Western Hemisphere.
