The dawnins congressional career
OF Representative Glare Booth Luce
is awakening keen interest not only
in Congress itself and among the
members OF the press, but also in
foreign diplomatic quarters, particu-
larry among the British.
Mrs. Luce's report from India was
anything but favorable to the Brit
ish point of view about the wartime
conduct Of Indian affairs. Her writ
ings, however. were restrained in
comparison with her informal COM
ments on the subject made in WASH
lngton drawing rooms on several
previous visits here.
Mrs. Luce's bid for a place on the
House Foreign Affairs Committee is
arousing interest among the foreign
representatives who respect her
brilliant pen and persuasive tongue.

as victory in this war seems more assured, has
alarmed many whites as we'll as Negroes.
BY modelling our political strength and joining
hands with the liberal white forces at work in our
community the Negro leadership can make head
start in restoring some semblanee Of human de-
cency in the civil affairs Of this arsenal of democ-
racy The confused and defeatist attitudes of some
Of our people in the past must be replaced with a
vibrant zeal for reform. If people live in an atmos-
phere Of Illustration, this Illustration turns newt
ably to bitterness and hate. Those Of us who have
sought to give hope and encouragement by pointing
out the course to full citizenship must now re-double
our efforts.
Through our alignment with the pro-democratic
forces in the trade union movement, and the poll
tical awakening of the masses of the Negro people
we have already made some progress and it is this
progress which has caused alarm among the re-
dictionaries. The time is at hand, therefore, when
we must pursue this course more vigorously than
any time in the past.
The Negro Press and all the organizations who
are bringing this message to the rank and file
making real contribution to our democracy which
is under fire from within and without. The Nazi
menace to a free world is being valianty fought
the battefelds beyond shores and its counter
part within our country must be fought with equal
valOr and skill by those of us on the home front.
AS President Roosevelt said we cannot draw hard
and fast line between the Americans who are fight
ing for democracy at home and abroad. We are
all in one great crusade against fascism and those
who seek to change the aims of this war effort and
who wish to save Americas fascist-ke traditions
while attacking this menace abroad are real enc
mics of freedom.
In the mastering of our political strength and
algnng ourselves with the liberal and progressive
forces in the white community we can within the
next few months do constructive job for peace and
goodwill by giving Detroit the kind of governmental
leadership that this crisis in local and national af-
fairs demands.

real issue before the NA.A.CP. and

whether or not Negroes, labor and

Within the coming months we will
see increased generalized criticism
Of organizations and men who talk
about equality and justice for the
Negro people. The criticism will
appear to be because they are fight

but actually. the criticism will be
levelled at this point against lib

labor. better housing. and programs
of non segregation wherever found.
Negro leadership must he aware of
this and not permit itself to be
divided along superficial lines in
its struggle for equality for all men.
