THE SENATE AXIS

According to news dispatches the garrulous
chest thumpers from dear old Dixie who cover so
much ground in the United States Senate are pre-
pairing to embalm and bury the budget bill for the
Presidents Fair Employment Practice Committee.
Having passed the House by four-vote margin, the
appropriation bill is now being "analyzed" by the
poll-taxers who SO successfully killed the anti-poll
tax measure The FEPC needs an appropriation of
$3.50 to carry its work which has been as i'm
portant to the prosecution of the war as the work
of any other committee in Washington, and far more
important than most.
The Senate Axis which comprises southern bour
bons and northern tories must not be permitted to
chop the FEPC bill to pieces and destroy agency
which has provided essential industries with needed
manpower and integrated minority groups into the
industrial program Of the war effort. However re-
uctant some of us may be to talk Of pressure, we
know that tremendous pressure must be brought to
bear upon the reactonaries in the Senate to
the life of the FEPC We believe that the ajority
of the American people have come to regard the eff
forts of the FEPC as necessary for the effort,
and this majority opinion must make itself felt now.
Your letters and kilograms will be weighed and
counted even if they are not read by the Senate
poltcos. Let them hear America speak.

THE MINOR VICTORIES

Press reports Of War Department order re-
curing army camps to provide non-segregated bus
service between camps and towns for Negro soldiers
indicate that, although the mills of the Gods still
grind slowly, by intelligent and persistent protest
over an obvious injustice remedial action finally
gets started. The transportation problem Tor our
soldiers stationed in the South has long been source
of tension and friction Morale builder Joe Louis
who was embarrassed by an arrogant MP for making
telephone call in white waiting room will attest
10 the pers of the southern transportation system
1t is the earnest hope Of all of us that such
minor victories are preliminary to bigger democratic
victories and that the War Department order affect
ing travel between camps and towns will be broad
ened to include general travel below the Mason and
Dixie. Few whites appreciate the humiliation
and fierce resentment which Jim crow travel en-
genders in the soul of the average colored American
Today with all rail transportation overburdened and
every other form Of travel curtaed by the eXigen-
cies of the war effort the plight of the Negro traveller
is worse than ever.
The social significance attached to transporta-
ton by the bigoted white southerners is ridiculous
Jim crow travel which incidentally, means inferior
accommodations in every particular, has become
something of symbol for the white supremacists
and they loath to give up any symbols of their
alleged superiority As matter of fact symbols are

all the white supremacists have today to indicate
their self-styled supremacy. The natural leveling
force of our democratic and equatarian form of
government and the total demands of the war effort
are playing havoc with the South and these super
ority symbols have hollow ring. Save for their
explosive effect upon the Negro people who are
physically pinned down by these Jim crow symbols,
they serve no purpose. They certainly do not prove
the superiority of whites. They prove only that
Grass bigotry is still being appeased by nation
which has not hesitated to use million black men
to attack the foreign counterparts of our native
injustices.

since the war the population density

The total number OF Negroes born
in Hawaii remains unknown. as
there are no census number avail

Hawaii's colored populace is low,
