Mccormick and others, who seem
to think that we must return to the
old days of the unemployment of
millions of people. He disagreed
thoroughly with some capitalist,
whose name l do not remember,
who declared that there must be
something like 20 million unem-
ployed in this country after the war
is over. That there must be a
change in the attitude of the i'm
perialist nations toward the colon
ials is a strong conviction of Mr..
Robeson's. He mentioned Frances
attitude toward its colonials, that
of bringing them up to the level
of full citizenship in a single gen.
Grafton. The colonials must be
raised to the position of equality
industrially and in every way, as it
is possible. ''The African and any
other so-called underprivileged
groups of people can function like
any other group if given the OPP
portunity," our cosmopolitan host
declared. He cited as an example
of a so-called backward people be-
ing able to use the modern ma
chinery, the Yakuti, whom Wendell
Willkie mentions in his book Zone
World" These people, who live in
the Ural mountains in Siberia,
mastered the modern machinery
brought in by the Russians.
Mrs. Blumberg raised the ques-
ton "as to whether this idea of
bringing all people up to the mod
ern standards of living needed to
be done from an altruistic motive
or not?" Mr.. Robeson's ready re-
ply was "No." 1t is a matter of
self preservation for people in the
more favored countries. By sup
plying the needs of the world we
can avoid having a large number
of unemployed people in our coun-
try.
Mr.. Robson said that he was
optimistic enough to believe that
"this" can be done; that is, that
jobs can be provided for all in the

Sullivan Urges
Media Research
on Negro Market

New York, Dec. 6-Driving the
point home that there is clear
evidence of the substance of the
Negro Market" David ]. Sullivan,
head of the Negro Market Organ
ization, today told the New York
chapter of the American Market
ing Association that advertisers
and marketers would do we'll to
re-evaluate new media sources to
reach Negro consumers.
Mr.. Sullivan cited the fact that
general media can offer only 1880
coverage in Baltimore in the best
read daily paper, and only $3.50 of
Negro families own a radio in Vir-
GINA"
Mr.. Sullivan gave the increase
in Negro population and gross in
come respectively during the years
1920 to 1913 as from 1Ola million
to over IS million and from 49,
O55, 400, 900 to I0,29O, 100000. This,
he said, is a market bigger in size
than the entire Dominion of Can
ada by 45Tc," and with over ST.
250,00O,000 more income in 1913.
On this evidence, Mr.. Sullivan
urged greater expansion of market
research in the Negro field cover
ing buying habits, brand prefer
ences, copy appeals and effective
media, both Negro and white.

City. Reynolds has been invited to
become a member of the organiza-
tons Planning Committee, which
he has accepted.
In correspondence with the new
organization, Reynolds was advised
by Charles Bolte, head of the group,
that the Planning Committee is in
complete sympathy with his views,
that problems facing the Negro
veteran are for all to solve. He
declared the organization ready to
demonstrate its good faith with
Negro veterans by full Indignation.
The organization is recommend
ing to its Washington Committee
that they urge immediate passage
of Senate bill 2992, which would
make it a federal crime to assault
or kill a man in the uniform of the
United States Army, Navy or Ma
rine Corps. 1t is prepared to go to

prisonment of Negro soldiers grow
ing out Of discriminatory practices
of the Armed Services. 1t is in ac-
cord with the view that a qualified /.
Negro should be appointed assistant .
administrator of Veterans Affairs |
in the government.
Reynolds believes, however, that |
there is still need for a national .
lobby to work with these veterans
organizations. He does not want to |
see Negroes return to a segregated /.
veterans organization, however. He
has organized such a lobby, called /.

of Discrimination in Military and

Wulter White to
Pacific Theatre

New York-Walter White, ex-
ecutive secretary of the NAACP,
left December 5, on the first leg
of his trip to the Pacific as War
Correspondent for the New York
Post. Mr.. White expects to visit
all areas where Negro troops are
centered, and to interview leading
government, military and naval
authorities in all theatres of COM
bat, and civilian circles. His timer
airy will include specifically the
China-Burma-India theatre, and
Russia. Stories, bulletins, articles
and special dispatches from these
sections will appear regularly in
the New York Post, the NAACP
press releases and leading maya
zines.

lighted to visit additional battle
fronts and to do whatever the
NAACP can in improving the con-
ditions under which Negro soldiers
are fighting. I hope, also, by talk
ing with the leaders of China,
India, Russia and other countries
to call attention to the Importance
of the world problem of race which
must be solved and solved right, if
there is going to be any lasting
peace in the world"

cities where there will be absolute
ly no discrimination or segregation
in the audience. This was why he
refused to appear a second time in
Kansas City. We certainly must
give great credit to Mr.. Robson
for this courageous stand that real
ly means much to all of US here in
America, white and Negro, who are
working and fighting for the full
Indignation of the Negro in Ameri-
can life. We must also give credit
to the white members of the cast
of Othello for superbly supporting
our hero in this stand for the rights
of our people, as they do Mr.. Robe
son in his never-to-be forgotten
portrayal of William Shakespeare's
Othello-the Moor "who loved all
too well and unwisely."

The existence of a new veterans

the full Indignation of Negroes was
revealed by Capt. Grant Reynolds,

his honorable discharge from the

postwar world.

postwar world.
Mr.. Robson had much to say
about the changing attitude and
temper of peoples in the world. In
speaking of the situation in Greece
today, he expressed surprise at the
bluntness of Winston Churchill as
he did in Parliament on the British
idea of empire. The temper of the
people is important, Mr.. Robson
commended. If the Grecian people
do not want King George as their
ruler he will not be able to remain
on the throne, even though British
guns and tanks try to keep him
there. II did not expect this crisis
to come with England on the con-
tinent of Europe as it has in Bel
GUM and Greece and other recent
ly freed countries, but rather with
India" Mr.. Robson asserted. He
predicted that Winston Churchills
government will fall before the end
of the war. The white nations need
to realize that the Chinese are not
going to return to the status quo
because the attitude of the Chin
csc people has changed, just as that
of the people in India and Africa
and all over the world, our host
said.
Negro Temper Has Changed
The temper of the Negro people
has changed, Mr.. Robson declared.
In speaking of the returning Ne
gro service men, Mr.. Robson said
that "he will not be seeking trouble,
but that he will want to feel that
he is a full citizen and he will re-
sent any curtailment of his sin
alienable rights There will be a
lot of truble in this country if the
returning Negro service men are
not given their rights"
Mr.. Andrews, Mr.. Robeson's very
efficient secretary, had called the
actor more than once, when l asked
Mr.. Robson, chow far South has
Othello been played?" Cincinnati
and Kansas City, Mr.. Robson re-
piled. Then he told US that the
production could be given in Wash
ington, Baltimore, Nashville and
other southern cities, but that he
had contract to play only in those
