(From The BLAKE TORCH)
'Does Democracy Draw a Color
Line?" This was the subject of the
forum delivered by Mr.. Cecil New
man on October II in the chapel.
Mr.. Newman's address was very
well received by the school. Mr..
Newman is editor and publisher of
two Negro newspapers, "The Min
neapolis Spokesman" and "The St.
Paul Recorder" He is also a Iaison
officer in the labor relations depart
ment of the Twin Cities Ordnance
Plant.
He came quickly to the point
the Negro problem-by showing
how it is perplexing to more people
now than it ever has been before.
This, said Mr.. Newman, is because
scientific development has made the
world smaller, and our internal
problems, as result are brought
home more acutely to US.

cerned the vulnerable spot the Ne
gro problem makes for enemy prop
agandists to emphasize. If we can
not keep our own house in order, as
serted Mr.. Newman, there is little
chance for us to take the lead in a
postwar peace program.
Mr.. Newman quoted the follow
ing statement made by Wendell
Willkie a few months before his
death: ave, as Americans, cannot
be on one side of the fence abroad
and the other at home"
He then showed that the ugly
racial discrimination still practiced
in the u. S. is a real factor in I'M
dermining the morale of the nation.
This is easily imagined when one
takes time to reflect that one in
every ten Americans is Negro, and
that two-thirds of all the news writ
ten about Negroes is either in a
ridiculing or a downright insult
ing vein. AS Mr.. Newman said, the
United States has had too steady a
diet of "Amos and Andy" Respect
for the average Negro family, in
his opinion, would be an enormous
step towards solving the trouble

He gave many examples of col
ored patriots, scientists, and various
other benefactors of America, and

The pastor charged that Judd's
statement stamped him as "the
No. l Negro batter in Minnesota. i"
He also recalled that Gov. Dewey
failed to have a fair employment
practices act by the last New York
state legislature and that members
of a Dewey-appointed commission
to study race discrimination in in
dustry resigned in protest. The Ne
groes of Minnesota, Rev. Kelley
said, have lost faith in the Republi-
can promises. Judd's statement,
he added, has aroused widespread
resentment.

eve are for his reelection be-
cause he has shown by his deeds
that he will abolish discrimination
against any person by reason of
race, creed or color"
He went on to say:
"The Negro knows that the
agrarian South has been transform
ed under the Roosevelt admip-
istration. The Southern TenS int
Farmers union has emerged to
sensitize America concerning the
rottenness of cotton tenancy. The
federal government has created the
AAA which has alleviated the de-
spair of tenancy.
"The Negro knows that his fu-
ture is with organized labor and
with small business enterprise.
Roosevelt has helped the Negro,
North and South, to become an
American worker and not a scab
laborer or a strike breaker. The
new bill of rights, the economic
bill of rights advocated by our
President, meets the earnest de-
sire of the Negro people of Amer
lea.
"The Negro knows that Eleanor
Roosevelt has suffered insults,
hatred and revengeful acts be-
cause she has stood boldly in favor
of the rights and responsibilities
of the emancipated tenth man. She
is dear to our hearts and will ever
quicken our gratitude to God for
her humane spirit.
Roosevelt is the living express
sion of the needed freedoms. The
Negro has felt freer under Roose-
welt administration than any other
presidential leadership since the
days of the martyred Abraham
Lincoln"
