True Christmas

Aflume and bleeding from the holocaust,
The Eorth moves on too seIsuttced.
And stumbes into Christmas, lost.
Seeking still more Santa Claus than Christ
We look with hope toward the eastern skies,
For signs Of Christ dnd MorY come ogdn,
When all the while the mdnger lies
Deep within the hearts Of willing men.
Wise men abhor the new and subtle Pageant
Wherein the greedy merchant dores descend
To making blessed Christ his agent.
Pointing Santa Claus q greater friend
Ruined Earth, the broken strands Of hope
With ovorice OF hate cannot be spiced,
Entwine q peace from heorsrings into rope
With less Of Santa Claus and more Of Christ
Whatever gift is wrapped in years TO come,
Must bear the guarantee Of loves purest brands,
Fdcsimiles Of Freedom ore but sugar plums,
Give your hedrt and bear it with clean hcndsl

In loving memory of our dear mother
and wife, Mrs. Annie o. Jordan, who
passed away four sad years ago, Dec. lS,

A loving mother and wife, gentle and

What a beautiful memory she left behind.

for the great Ito them) privilege
of being invited to dinner at some
despicable zoot-suiter, the nappy-
white persons home or to call some
famous white man by his first name
as he always calls them.
They gIorify certain colors
among Negroes-making heroes or
heroines, front pagers, as it were,
of those whose skins are not all
black, whether their choice in this
connection is capable of producing
or not. In this, they accept the
white mans standard of beauty and
doom thousands of Negroes whose
only sin is that they look Negroid,
to ridicule and embarrassment.
That is why the Negro woman
who might weigh $50 pounds and
who wheezes when she climbs into
the bus gets a round of filters and
giggles or cold disdain from young
Negroes who think they are acting
as New Negroes" for the benefit
of the white riders aboard the bus.
That is why the poor, untutored
Negro fresh from the South, max
ing his first venture in the So
called land of freedom and oppor-
tunity" of the North is shooed away
or sent to the police station or to
the Salvation Army for assistance
or advice, when the Negroes who
sent him should be the first to come
to his aid.
Day of Reckoning Coming
One of these days the great
masses of Negroes in Americas
principal cities and on its farms
are going to wake up completely
and get rid of burden they should
on no account have to carry. That
day will come when the masses
awake to the knowledge that
they, not the so-called better
element" are the ones who are
making progress. They will then
realize that three-fourths or more
of the professional Negroes spend
all their working hours chasing
members of the masses-because
the Negro masses have most of
the money in the race. They have
the ten and fifteen dollar a week
jobs shining shoes, cooking, wait
ing tables, running errands, or kill
ing chickens that provide the main
source of revenue for the profess
SIGNALS. The doctor, the lawyer, the
preacher, the realtor, the store
owner, and the undertaken all draw
their sustenance from the lowly,
headed man, the unbathed piano
mover, the ragpicker, the wash
woman, and the errand boy.
The other professional Negroes
draw their support from the big
white foundations or from white
philanthropists, but must make
their studies on the little Negro
since it stands to reason they
wouldn't stand much chance in sub
hitting statistical data on the Irish,
Jews, Germans or Italians.
There should be some avenue or
way in which real Negro leadership
would not depend on what the white
man thinks is best for Negroes but
would tell him what the Negro
wants and is going to take. This
leadership wouldn't continue to let
the white man tell him year in and
year out that there are only
100000 Negroes in the United
States. 1t would tell the truth and
say there might be rs million and
make demands based on that
strength Of numbers.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1944-12-22

the tried and true get the right of
way up the road to the goal. All
Negroes who truthfully want con-
crete answer as to what we are
and where we are going should ask
those who set themselves up as
leaders and presume to do our
thinking: Are you one of US or
do you belong with the other side ?"
Once an answer has been made
and if there is the slightest hest
tation based on prior commitments
or considerations, action should be
taken at once. Only in this way
can we rid ourselves of the heavy
load we are taking on our backs.

These words Of Charles Dickens express exactly
what this newspaper tries to be to the people of
this community.
Because it is during the season of Christmas that
the strength of friendships is most evident we
choose now as the time to express our resolve to
continue to be worthy of the friendship you have
shown us.
In turn we wish for you the most Merry Christ
mas YOU have ever had. Despite the anxiety and
worry which the war has brought to many of our
homes in the past year, we urge you to remember
that the bells of Christmas were ringing long
before the warriors of wrong rose up and they will
be ringing still when the scars of this generations
conflict are healed and forgotten.
Make faith in such thought your closest compan.

Wasted Efforts Costly

There seems to be more time
and money spent to prove by writ
ing and long winded discussion that
the Negro is actually a black man
with a white skin than there is
spent to adequately feed, house
and educate the millions of US who
need such attention.
There seems to be reason to sus-
pect a grain of truth in the rumor
that certain specialists" on race
matters go around with stetho-
scopes, placing them on the chest
of bleeding, aching, hungry race,
making an analysis and a detailed
report to hand over to some body
of white folk who accepts the re-
port of our national low estate and
makes a substantial donation for
a similar report the next year.
That such specialists" have
rightly earned the title, "stool-
pigeons" is apparent when the fact
is plain that they are paid off while
our condition remains the same.

Educated to Ape Whites

There seems a constant effort
underfoot among a certain class of
the so-called better element" of
Negroes to get away from" the
rest of US. They are educated to
ape the white mans tastes in every
respect and to frown on any and
all things purely Negro. They
publicly denounce and decry our
racial cultures, willing to trade all
that away for a dubious distinction
of being almost like a white man."
Everything they belittle that is
Negro, even the effort to achieve
economic status and self-hood. They
would break up and scatter the
so-called black-belt vote where
thousands of Negroes are concen-
trated, not because the segregation
is the main ailment, but because
Negroes vote straight Republican
or Democratic tickets and are
thereby identified by a common
political preference.
They send their children from
the community to exclusive schools
with whites, hoping against hope
that the white mans educational
system will make their black or
brown offspring white, not realiz-
ing that color is o. greatest
strength and the hardest part of
the evidence of Negro parentage
to destroy.
Unite With Whites Against Race
These Negroes make common
bond with so-called liberal whites
to scatter our racial strength; to
invade the most sacred precincts of
our inner cultural activities, and
to take over and direct our thinking
