K. c. CALL HEADS
BROWN BOMBER DRIVE

The naming of the drive,
Brown Bomber" was a happy
choice. 1t identified the drive
without setting up a color line.
A number of white persons
bought their bonds through our
committee. Our strategy was to
interest management, and with
its consent, approached the work
ers. Our ammunition plant here
was an outstanding example of
that procedure. Through it, we
sold $4,000 worth. One white
worker bought $4,000 worth.
After all, the best sale is to
the individual who is not in the
habit of saving. We did lot of
that encouraging the small sale
of $25, $50 and 500 bonds.
Because Kansas City is the site
of an airplane factory whose pro-
duct is called the Mitchell Bomb
er, Brown Bomber has a local ap-
peal, which everybody would re-
spond to.

DEMOCRACY
SCORES ONE

For the first time since recon
struction days the country will
have two Negro congressman
when the new congress convenes
next January 20.
Two congressman can't control
the House of Representatives but
they can exert a great deal OF
influence In its deliberations.
The time will come when there
will be a great many more Ne
groes in congress. That is go
ing to result from our outstand-
ing anti-demoeratic practice: that
of forcing Negroes to herd to-
gether in ghettos in the large
northern cities.
One way or another democracy
cripples forward in our country.

The FILA Disgrace

The National Association fol-
the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie has sent to President Roose-
welt a detailed memorandum in
dieting the discriminatory poll
cies of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration during the entire
period of that agency's existence
This new Deal agency has,
from the very beginning, discrim-
mated against Negro applicants,
promoted racial residential segre-
cation, prevented this potential
ly effective agency from making
any significant contribution to
meeting the basic housing needs
of Negroeys," stimulated racial
tensions by restriction of living
space and housing accommoda-
tions, and done everything in its
power to prevent true democracy
from becoming a reality.
1t manipulates mortgages in
such a way as to prevent Negroes
from escaping from their ghet-
toes and prohibits occupancy OF
properties except by the race
for which intended.
Everywhere the FILA respects
racial restrictive covenants and
hampers Negroes as bidders in
the housing market.
Here is a New Deal agency
controlled by an alleged friend
of the Negro, which las done
more to perpetuate Residential
segregation than al the racially
prejudiced forces of the Solo
South put together.
And this New Deal agency Is
! supported out of the taxes pait
by Negroes and whites alike.
President Roosevelt has nevei
SAID or DONE anything abou
! this as long as the agency hal
existed, although Negro individ
uals and organizations have pro
tested long and loudly against it
He has been too busy tryini
to free foreign peoples from sim
liar evils abroad
Negroes everywhere must ris'
up in righteous rage against thi
FILA disgrace, get after thei
representatives in Washington, D
c., deluge the White House wit
letters and kilograms, use ever
legal means available, and or
ganize politically regardless o
party utilization to GUST fror
Congress every Congressman an
Senator who supports the polio
of this agency.
The greatest evil confrontin
the Negro in America is segraga
ton, and the FILA has been tn
most effective of the New Dea
agencies in perptuating reslder
tial segregation.
This agency must be reform
/ NOW.
In a few years when the Negr
population has been completed

too late to do anything.-Pitt
