because Negroes produce able men
who ought to be in Congress.
If an American Negro went to
little Honduras, for example, he
would see many of his race sitting
in the chambers of the national
legislative body. The same thing
would have been true in Brazil be-
fore the present Vargas dictator
ship.
Vargas doesn't think much of
legislatures and, privately, doesn't
think much of Negroes. But even
this iron-handed despot has not
dared to fout the equalitarian tradi-
ton of his country where about
forty per cent of the people have
Negro blood.
What goes for politics also goes
for business in Latin America. Ne
groes serve capably and well as
owners and managers of CONNER
cial firms, as statesmen, jobbers,
bookkeepers, and clerks.
Women are just beginning to
enter business and professions in
the Fl republics.
But it will not be long before
trim Negro girls will be pounding
typewriters, side by side, with trim
white girls in neat, comfortable Of
fees without Jim Crow signs.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1944-03-31

When woman suffrage becomes a
reality in that part of the world,
those same girls will take time off
to go to the polls and vote without
the shabby restriction of the poll
tax.
Nor will the Latin American
countries ever need a Fair Employ
ment Practices Committee as our
good neighbor develops her in
dustry and commerce. The growing
Latin-American labor movement
has never been bothered with the
problem of color because the larger
proportion of its members were Ne
groes and Indians to begin with.
The peoples of Latin-America
fought the battle of color when
they fought the white Spaniards
