WHITE SUPREMACY AT WORK
BY George ii. Davenport

PPS) - The attack in Washington, D.. g., on Edgar
Brown, Republican Candidate for Congress End Congress
sional District of Illinois. is an attack on the Negro of
America. Brown was attacked by a young Texan, who SEEM
lily had instructions from Southern Congressman. Negroes
all over the nation should voice their protests direct to the
President, by letter or telegram-Regardless of what good
the President has done in the past in favor of the Negro
it seems that HE IGNORES HIS RIGHT NOW. Mr.,
Roosevelt. hasn't seen fit to utter q Kord in behalf of
Negro soldiers. Black soldiers are ~ ptkd like slaves
in Southern camps. Our only Negro Congressman should
protest because attacks of similar nature will be aimed at
him in the near future. Brown has done a good job of max
ing Congress conscio"- of the heather treatment of the
Negro in America - lie would make a good Congressman
for the Negro race, at least he would not wait until after
the war to protest, or wait until Cong. Hamilton Fish Ga
white MANI do the things that Negroes expect their
black representatives should do. Regardless of party, Ne
groes should protest, let the hoodlums at the seat of our
Government know that we do not like such tactics. | have
watched for Press reports on Dawsons reaction, but up
to the writing Of this article, | haven't seen or heard of
any! In New York during the 1910 campaign the Presi-
dents Secretary kicked a Negro policeman who was try
ing to protect the President. | never read of any apology
from the President to the Policeman. Of course, the Presi-
dent doesn't have to apologize to anyone, but it would have
made him a big man in the eyesight of Americans had he
sent a telegram to the p%olicemans family expressing re-
gret for the hoodlum attack by Sec. Early. In November
millions of Negroes will vote. Never before has the vote
meant so much, think, well, use your vote wisely-You
needn't ask this administration where they stand on the
race question. Just ask any Negro soldier. And last week
Tom Dewey turned you down. WE ARE IN H MIDDLE,
while we cannot expect much from either party - We can
accept the lesser of the two evils. Remember Brown
They hit you when they hit Brown.

THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE FORGOT

MIR. Roosevelt was quoted last week as saying; Our
boys on the battle front must not be denied an opportunity
to vote simply because they are away from home. They are
at the front fighting with their lives to defend our rights
and freedoms. We must assure them their rights and free
doms at home so they will have a fair share in determin-
ing the kind of life to which they will return"
Mr.. Roosevelt wants to assure the boys away from
home that he is interested in their rights and freedom,
and, that they should participate in fashioning the princi-
pies here that they are to habiitate themselves upon their
return. But, the Chief Executive has forgotten the boys
right here at home below the Congo. Whether they have
any rights or enjoy any freedoms is Of little or no concern.
Not even enough to speak anything in their interest. Mil
lions of boys here, some who fought and shared their blood
that these same rights and freedoms, that Mr.. Roosevelt
now praises so highly, be defended, denied the ballot, and
this can not be any news to Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t is known
the world over, surely the Chief has knowledge of it. But,
they have not been classed as first class citizens by Mr..
Roosevelt or any one else who is in authority. But, we do
feel that if these boys below the Congo are good enough
to fight for rights and freedoms for others, they are good
enough to enjoy the things they fight for. If they are good
enough to shed their blood for a country and are not good
enough to have a voice in selecting the men who are to gov
ern that country, something is wrong some where, and
since the Chief Executive is so interested in those who are
away from home we feel that he is rathe runfair by over
looking these here.

THE TIME is HERE

The time is here fol- the Negro leaders of America to
get together and comet to some conclusion IN their de-
mands for the race.
There are entirely too many ~self-styled leaders of the
race. Some demanding this and some demanding that. SoAe
preaching the gospel that the Negro is satisfied with his
$3.50 "a santh. These Is1fastXled leaders Ire
wantsNU hear it and find that he is easy prey for funds
when brought that kind of doctrine and uses it to keep
their pockets stuffed with money, and know too well that
they are liars when they say it. The Negroes of the south
may be satisfied with their position, but they are a he'll
Of a long way from being contented, and they never will
be until they are granted the same chances for development
and given the same privileges every other man claims for
himself. There are no two ways about it. Irrespective to
what the ~self-styled leaders of the race are preaching, the
Negro knows that he is fighting on foreign soil for demo
cracy, and he knows that he has seen none of that display
ed in his own country and until he is given an opportunity
to share what he is helping to make for somebody else, he
will never be satisfied. And until the Negro leaders can
be thrashed down to one or two who are able to reach
some conclusion on something that is concrete to bring the
Negro recognition in this country as a citizen, we are a
lost people.
The Negro in Arkansas wants to be a first class clti-
zen, he wants to be a good citizen. He is denied full parti-
cipation of the ballot, he is denied proper educational facili-
ties, he is given the worse accommodation in travelling.
He must take a back seat to any white face, irrespective
among our group going around telling the white man that
the Negro is satisfied. Such deceit is injurious to the well
being of the race. And the quicker these men are disrobed
of their neckties and white shirts and relegated to the back
seat, the better off the race will be.

KNOW THE TRUTH

There are many telling pas
sages in the pamphlet, Races
Of Mankind" 1t says that race
prejudice is hardly a hundred
years old in America and in the
world. Before that, people
prosecuted Jews because of their
religion-not their blood they
enslaved Negroes because they
were pagans-not for being
black"
II repeats the we'll known
truth that "All RACES have made
their contribution to human
knowledge" 1t drives home the
point that, "Up to now, every
great center of civilization has
had it's day and given place to
others. The proud rulers OF
yesterday become the simple peas
ants of another era. The crude
people who once threatened the
great cities become later the
kings and emperors In the same
country
Conflict grows fat on fear.
Freedom from fear Is the way to
cure prejudice the booklet
points out. 1t adds that, "They
tthe Russian people) did not
wait for peoples minds to
change. They made racial dis
elimination and persecution IL
legal. The more backward groups
were given special aid to help
them catch UP with the more ad-
vanced."
Those are specimen of truth
which the USO officials, Army
officials, Congressman May, and
the anti-truth bloc are trying to
suppress. 1t is the message Of
freedoms music. 1t Is the core
of democracy, Read that pamp-
hlet.
MAKES NO SENSE
In one Of his columnar efforts.
Langston Hughes, the poet-col-
umnist says:
1t does not make sense to deny
Negroes the vote and then call
Negroes bad citizens when they
have no chance to be good ones.
1t does not make sense to deny
Negroes equal educational facil-
tiles and then berate the Negroes
as being ignorant. 1t does not
make sense to intimidate, bru-
%talize, and hinder the progress
Of a people, and then blame that
people for not progressing more
rapidly. 1t does not make sense
to want to call all Negroes by
their first names, but expect TO
be called Mr.. yourself. It does
not make sense to eat the food
that Negroes cook, yet refuse to
eat with the Negroes.

ences. scientists investigate the
way by which particular traits are
passed on from parents to child

identify SKIN color on a color

Science therefore treats human
racial differences as facts to be
studied and mapped. 1t treats
racial superiorities as a separate
field of Investigation it looks for
evidence. When a Nazi SAYS, Il
am a blue-eyed Aryan and you
are non-Aryan," he means, II am
superior and you are inferior"
The scientist says; "Of course you
are a f~air-haired, long-headed,
tall North European (the Anthro-
biological term is Nordies, not
Aryans), and | am a dark-haired,
round-headed. less tall South
European. But on what evidence

point of inferiority and superior
ity. The mar with race prejudice

I'm superior anyway. I was born
that way"
1t Is the study of racial superb
critics and inferiorities, therefore,
which is most important in race
relations. This investigation, to
have any meaning at all, must get
evidence for and against the man
who says, 81 was born that way.
My race is proof that l am the
better man" 1t must be an in
vestigation of what Is better and
