retort. They're making it tough

the wrong idea of freedom. They
think that it means to carry a chip

white person they happen to come
in contact with. They imagine that
all white folks are against them like
they are where they come from.
They mistake liberty for license.

US came from the South. You're
from Virginia, aren't you?" To his
assent I said, "Most of the leader

places. 1 am not worried about
colored people from the South. Let
them come, I hope more of them
leave the South and come to New
York. The only thing is there
should be some movement to inte-
CRATE them rapidly. There should
be a Virginia club, a Georgia club,
a North Carolina club, a Florida
club, a Texas club-in fact, clubs
from all the states with a nucleus
of those who came here many years
ago. These clubs should do more
than just give an annual dance.
They should welcome the new
corners from their various states,
inform them about public and pri-
vate agencies serving the citizens
of New York, tell them about the
public parks, the schools, both night
and day, and encourage them to
register and vote. If this were done,
you wouldn't know the difference in

SHOULD NEGROES FIGHT
FOR THEIR RIGHTS

There is no easier trick in an
argument than to accuse your OPP
ponent of wanting the moon. That
makes him out as a totally un-
reasonable or irresponsible man;
and after this it does not matter
what your opponent says, for all
his statements, emanating from an
unreasonable source, are tainted
with insanity.
In "The New York Times Maya
zine" July 81 Robert Moses made
use Of this mischievous type of
argument. Writing Of civil rights
and tolerance in New York City,
he said: There are stories of un-
rest among our colored citizens.
There are Negro leaders who will
accept nothing but complete social
equality" The argument is trans
parent: the Negro wants social
equality-the Negro wants the
moon.
Who, I should like Mr.. Moses
to say, are the Negro leaders who
want social equality? Who will ac-
cept nothing but complete social
equality? Who are these leaders ?
Are they Walter White, W. e. B.
Dubois, Lester Granger, Eugene
Kinckle Jones, Dean William h.
HASTE, Judge Charles E. Toney,
Judge Hubert T. Delaney, DR..
Charming II. Tobias, Thurgood
Marshall, Professor Leon A. Ran
som7 I dare say that Mr.. Moses
cannot name one Negro leader.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1943-10-08

The authority he could cite is the
Negro-baiting Governor Of South
Carolina, the Honorable DIN D.
Johnston, who, on July Is, told his
State Guard that "if any outsiders
come into our State and agitate
social equality among races, shall
deem It my duty to call upon you
men to help expel them" A few
days later the Governor was an
swered by the Negro Citizens
Committee Of his State, who wrote
him: "Cool, level-headed leaders
Of our racial groups have never
advocated, nor desire, the much
talked-of social equality which
has been used to breed unrest, and
even hate, among races"
There is no social equality among
Negroes, not any more than among
white persons. The President of
Fisk University does not invite
the scrubwomen to his table; the
head Of a Negro insurance company
does not go mentioning with one
Of the company's agents. Negroes,
like white persons, move in their
own professions, classes, castles;
and many Of them, certainly the
Negro leaders, would consider mil
lions Of white persons their social
interiors.
To say that Negro leaders, or
even that some Of them, want
social equality, and win accept
nothing else, is to lay the ground
work for the most vicious Of pre-
