THE SUPplANT

THE SUPpiANT
Long have | beat with timid hands
upon life's leaden door,
Praying the patient. futile prayer
my fathers prayer before,
Yet | remain without the close,
unheeded and unheard.
And never to my listening ear
Is borne the waited word.
Soft DER the threshold of the
years there comes this eoun-
sci cool.
THE STRONG DEMAND, CON
TEND. PREVAIL; THE
BEGGAR is A FOOL!
That is the theme for the week,
and what a beautiful thought has
been expressed by Mrs. Georgia
Douglas Johnson, widow of the
late Republican stalwart, Henry
Lincoln Johnson. Sr., of Georgia.
The verse is taken from a book
of verse entitled Bronze" and
it is good reading.
REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP
among Negroes In Arkansas is
cropping along as usual. There
is now a splendid opportunity
for Negro Republican leaders to
win the representation that they
are entitled to, provided the old
retire and let youth come into
the ranks. We shall not engage
in personalities for it is futile
just now, but the time has come
when there should no longer be
any need for weakened politi-
clans. Negroes are politically i'm
potent In Arkansas, and even the
most active participation in party
politics nets very little to the
average politician. SO, in the
absence of any money. the root of |
all evil, Negro politicians will
find that they have everything |
10 gain and nothing to lose So,
should not the demands for equal
representation in party politics be
made now? There are some names
in Republican politics which are
traditional. We need new lead
ers, we need young men.
but old Negro men do not care
to retire and make way for the
Young,
VOTING IN PRIMARIES
my boss thinks that Negroes will
gain Just about as much as
| Negroes gained when the Supreme
Court handed down the renown-
ed Gaines Decision. In Ar
kansas. the decision meant four
teen one hundred dollar schol-
arships, through the active cam
paign made by the Committee on
Negro Organization tHarold
Flowers brain-child) and the
subsequent enactment OF a sehol-
arship aid law, providing for the
paltry sum of Five Thousand
Dollars per year for Negro stu
dents to study medicine, law,
dentistry, and etc, outside OF Ar
kansas. So, the Supreme Court
decision making it possible for
-..egroes to vote in the democra-
tic primaries, will neal very lit
tie, If anything, to Arkansas
Negroes. First, Negroes do not

Why DRAFT FAMILYc

This labor-draft situation may
be illustrated by a pioneer father.
head OF a large family who drafts
two of his boys TO fight the In
dams. He expects the others 10
work hard and maintain the pro-
duction Of the family But there
is 4 favorite son. who is cOddled
and given discriminatory benefits.
He doesn't do all he could, and
goes in for some rlOtouS living
The others. including one Of the
boys at the front. are disguised
and kick. Then the father says,
III draft all those AZ home,
thinking thus TO allr-the criticism.
But why draft the whole fam
lily? What The head OF the family
should do would be 70 give the
faVorIte son a spanking and 10
quit CoddlnC him.
Fighting and dying arc great
sacrifices but they can't he paid
for. and aren't labor. BY the same
token. We can't force men 10 work
and still remain 2 democracy.

SPLIT LABORERS

But ! wonder if Mr.. Roosevelt
figured on how badly his draft
labor scheme would split the
laborerS and presumably the Ia
Dor vote. | wonder If he realized
how sharp a cleavage would de-
NcIop and how definitely he would
become tarred with the support
Of the most radical and un-Amer-
lean element IN America today.
The other evening I debated
this issue on one Of the radio TO
runs The thing that struck me
was that in favor of the civilian
draft appeared former New Deal
leader and a representative of a
Go, union noted for its comrhu-
nlstic leadership. while repre-
sentative Of American trade un-
ions and an economist joined in
the attack. In other words. IN his
new policy, the President has the
enthusiastic support Of the Eel
low Travellers in our midst. He
meets the disguised and unqual-
flied opposition of the two great
declarations of organized labor.

that the President had no idea

Congress VIII turn the scheme
down, and that then. when further

that he wanted TO stop strikes
but Congress wouldn't let him. lie

The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1939-1949, 1944-01-13
A FUTURE PROBLEM

It may not be too early for Ken
newick to worry about the traffic
conduct that will be an after-the-
war problem. Not having forgot
ten the toll taken of lives before
the war, due to carelessness in
driving, we are probably unani-
nous in agreeing that there is
always something to worry about
the conditions will be worse be-
cause of the millions of fighting
in this line. It is suggested that
men who will be so accustomed to
danger that when they get behind
a wheel they will really ''let go".
There are the many civilian driv-
ers who have felt restrained by
the eye-dropper method of tank
filling and when they no longer
need reach for their gas coupons,
they will forget discretion. It
may be that we will have to set
new standards for driving tests
and make some new laws to cover
the condition when it does arrive.
