VULGARTTY. OBSCENITY, and
:ursing, without regard for others
on public co-veyances. places OF
public entertainment and street
corners Is becoming far too pre-
valent and constitute q nuisance
which should be eliminated. Much
too often while riding the street car
or passing in the street, witness
scenes on the nart Of our people
which are just short OF revolving.
And we of all groups can less afford
conduct ourselves in this manner.
I'VE should always remember
at our every act reflects upon
the whole race. OF course it is
not fair to judge whole people by
the act OF some irresponsible nit
wit" but it is done that way never
theless. We therefore cannot
afford 70 ignore the harm being
done the race by the loose conduct
OF too many OF our folks in public
places.
How to correct this evil is big
problem-yet We must do some
thing about it, and do it now. We
do not claim 10 have the solution
but we do think the condition could
be greatly bettered if the organiza-
tons interested in the development
OF the Negro in this community be-
stirred themselves on this point.
An educational program should be
launched through our schools,
churches and clubs-to bring about
a realization OF just what it means
for a race to lose its cultural values
and become devoid OF self-respect.
Pamphlets. tracts, posters and public
meetings should be used TO focus
public attention upon the problem.
:. We need not hold back for fear
Of calling the other fellows atten-
ton 10 our weakness in this direc-
ton for he sees our conduct daily
on street cars and street corners.

THE RECKLESSNESS with which
many Negroes throw away their
money Is astounding. Our extrava.

You can't get ahead spending

Fora Neale Hurston's article in
the American Mercury for May,
The "Pet Negro" System, is further
evidence Of her ability to write
amusingly on a wide variety OF
subjects. Miss Hurston writes with
great good humor but just as in
Dust Tracks On A Road" her auto
biography. one cannot always go
along with her conclusions. The
practice in the South OF a Negro
having a white protector is we'll
known but is far more likely to be
found on the lower levels Of Negro
society. DR.. Charles Johnston in his
latest book. Patterns Of Negro
Segregation" points out that Ne
groes whom he designated as lower
class and lower middle class are
far less resentful Of segreg CATION
than those in the upper classes
These are tie Negroes who are
most often in trouble Of one kind
or another and find it useful 10 de-
pend on the interest Of some white
man. The professional classes for
the most part follow a policy OF
avoidance as DR.. Johnston points
out and, Miss Hurston to the con-
trary. are seldom found kowtowing
to favorite white.
Miss Hurston concludes her ar
ticle by stating that all the we'll
known Negroes have strong at
tachments across the color line"
We agree completely with her here
but TIE friendship OF Dr. Dubois
and Mr.. Spingarn which she men,
lions among others is certainly on
a different level from the sor. Of
thing she has been discussing in
the South. 1t is a friendly relation
ship with none of the implications
Of the pet Negro" system. Miss
Hurston mentions several examples
of pet Negroes" in the South. but
even here she failed to include TIE
most famous examples. I'd like 70
see Miss Hurston stick TO fiction.
When she gets on the color question
she is far less sure Of her ground.

Freezes Rates
The new measure, II was predict
cd, will result In freezing" present
individual income tax rates at pres
ent levels for two years. Under
the plan the rs per cent OF one
years liability, which Is not abat.
ed, must be paid in addition to
the regular income tax in those
two years.
The conferees. after Ave days of
discussion, adopted the basic pro-
visions OF a compromise for the
Ruml pay'as-you-go plan proposed
by Sen. George (D) Ca, chairman
OF the Finance Committee. The
new tax bill provides:
one hundred per cent csncella-
ticn OF one years income tax for
1912 or 1913. whichever Ia less.
II the tax is less than $40 This
is expected to cancel taxes on at
least 100000 taxpayers.
Seventy.fve per cent abatement
of the 1912 or 1943 tax. whichever
Is less, for persons whose tax
liability is over $50.
Experts were instructed to work
out a notch" provision to smooth
out the difference between 100 and
IS per cent abatement for those
whose tax liability is slightly above
$50.
A 20 per cent payroll Withholding
tax is levied beginning July /, TO
apply on l943 taxes.
The self.employed, such as doc.
tors and lawyers, must make quar-
terly estimates OF their income and
pay taxes accordingly. II individu-
ais generally underestimate their
tax liability by over 20 per cent
(33 l-3 per cent in case OF farmers)
six per cent penalty must be
paid.
Two anti-windfall provisions
were included to prevent persons
with incomes swollen by war from
gaining unduly by the rs per cent
cancellation. The first is that
which applies cancellation to the
lesser OF the 1912 or 1943 income.
The second anti-windfall provi-
sion allows a taxpayer to select
1888. 1889 or 1910 as a base year
and add $50 900 to the income for
that year. He then pays income
tax on the difference between that
amount and the lower OF his 1912
or 1913 income.
