What's Really Behind The Walton Resignation?

created Liberian post of secretary
of public works and utilities, relat-
ed to Walton's retirement?
And why are we interested in
the answers to these questions OBJ
viously because we want to see pro-
gress and democracy developed in
Liberia, particularly. We Ameri-
can Negroes want to be able to
point to Liberian and other Negro
lands with pride and not be
ashamed to say "these are our peo-
ple."
But for nearly three generations
now there has not been much in Lii
IBERIA of which we really could be
proud. We have generally kept
quiet about her, even kept away
from her and refused to assist her
economic and social progress while
Europe was pouring men and
money into Africa to develop and
exploit their holdings.
But when she was in difficulties
with foreign powers we helped to
protect her by encouraging the U.
S. Government to intercede with
Liberals enemies. But today Amer
ican Negroes want to throw their
influence on the side of progress
and democracy not only in Liberia
particularly, but in the whole of
Africa and the West Indies. The
Walton situation needs to be
cleared up fast. After all, Liberia
was founded as refuge for free
Negro labor. Who knows, some day
it might actually become that.

WASHINGTON, July z (ANP)
Replacement of Edward r. Stet-
tinius, Jr., as secretary of state
takes away from that important
position one who in the short per-
iod of his stewardship has shown
a real disposition to carry out the
friendliness of his predecessor,
Cordell Hull, toward the republics
of Liberia and Haiti, and toward
the republics of Liberia and Haiti,
and toward Ethiopia.
In addition, his creation of the
division of dependent territories
and the elevation of Ralph s..
Bunche to the position Of associate
director, for the first time gave
unprecedented recognition to the
professional status of Negroes in
a field heretofore not particularly
appealing to many Negroes.
Stettinius came into the depart
ment and worked closely with
Hull, especially in the events which
finally led to Dumbarton Oaks and
now the successful San Francisco
conference of the United Nations.
The affable Stettinius subscribed
wholeheartedly to the liberal pro-
fessions of Hull and sought to in
corporate many of them in the fl

the equator is particularly un-

Mr.. Walton spent an extended per-
iod in a hospital here in the United
States before returning to Liberia
in January.
In the face of these rumors,
thoughtful Negroes in Africa and
the Americas will want to know the
real reasons for Mr.. Walton's re-
tirement if current reports are
true. Mr.. Walton's position is such
that his leaving it requires explain
alton. 1t should be expected that
American Negroes particularly,
will reveal a keen interest in all
problems which directly or indi-
rectly affected Negroes.

The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1945-07-07

According to current reports
now circulating all over the coun-
try, Lester Walton, United States
minister to the West African Ne
gro republic in Liberia, is resign
ing his post after 10 years of serv-
ice. Mr.. Walton is or was the top
ranking Negro in the foreign serv-
ice of the United States. Since Lii
IBERIA has come to play an increas-
ingly important part in the COM
mercial and foreign policies of the
United States, reports of Walton's
retirement have set off a wage of
speculation.
In the absence of a clarifying
statement from the u. S. Depart
ment Of state, the rumors which
are thriving at present are substan-
TALLY as follows: "Walton's politi-
cal support is relatively weak" !"
"He has been playing ball too close
ly with the Firestone rubber inter-
est" "He has been working hand
in-glove with that small group of
reactionary Negro Liberians al
legged to be blocking the progress of
the country" NEGRO soldiers don't
like him." "The American army
doesn't like him." Colorful as these
rumors are some of them take on
more colorful variations in the re-
telling.
Seemingly few people are giving
much weight to the statement that
Mr.. Walton's health has failed him.
This statement is quite plausible
since the climate along the West

talks on developments in connec-
tion with the discussions on trus-
teeships.
Under Stettinius increased num-
bers of missions have been sent to
Liberia and to Ethiopia to aid in the
development of these countries.
His being named U. S. delegate
on the security council and chair
man of the American delegation in
the general assembly of the pro-
posed United Nations organization
puts him into a position now where
he may press hard for the freest
and more advanced Interpretation
of these sections of the charter
dealing with human rights and in
dependence for dependent peoples.

the following questions: Does the
retirement of Mr.. Walton indicate
a change in American policy to-
ward Liberia? If so what changes
are being planned? In view of the
strong influence which the Fire
ston Rubber Co. and U. S. Military
authorities exert on Liberian for
eign and domestic policies, is Wal
toms retirement intended to make
room for a more acceptable Ne
gro?
How will his retirement affect
the results of the work being done

commissions now in Liberia to aid
in improving health, agricultural,
educational and other conditions

WASHINGTON, March 20 -
(R) - War Manpower Commits

lively donned an umpire's cap

called baseball safe" for the
1945 season.
In a decision that cleared one
of the games principal man.
power hurdles, McNutt yester-
day ruled that players may re-
turn TO the diamond from Off
season employment, such as
winter war plant jobs.
These players, coaches and
managers do not need certifi-
cate of availability or referral
card under WINGS job program
since baseball is their principal
business and, McNutt held in ef-
feet, they have right to work
at it.
His decision, following closely
President Roosevelt's recent pat
on the back for the sport, vir-
tually set the stage for the start
of tn fourth wartime season.
The only thing, apparestly
that could clog the works at this
late date is enactment of work
Or-jail legislation, now before
Congress, and an Interpretation
that diamond players were di-
rectly affected Such action is
considered unlikely.
Most baseball leaders were
jubilant at the decision. Said
Will Harridge, president of the
American League: MIR. Nc
Nuts statement is very graft
tying And Ford Frick, the
National League boss, chimed
in: ITS a great thing for base
ball"
McNutt said he had satisfied
himself that there is a wide
spread demand for the game,
particularly among servicemen,
and that it has homefront
morale value. He added there is
real justification for this ac-
ton and the games continu-
ance.

baseman Rudy York and pitcher
Rufus Gentry are holdouts
brought a quick denial from tt
ger officials Wednesday.
eneral Manager Jack Zeller
scoffed at the rumors, declar-
ing, I've have no holdouts this
year." He said that IL of the 35
potential Tigers have not ar

but added, I'VE have no exhibit
ton games with major league
clubs, so are not too worried"
Zeller said that Don Ross, a
utility player, sent a wire from
his p a a d a, Calf. home
Wednesday, advising the Tigers
business office that he was de-
layed by travel conditions, but
would try to b; on hand for the
seasons opener.
The "holdout" rumors began
to circulate Wednesday after
the March 20 deadline for re-
porting at camp passed up-
noticed. Absentees include six
players who were sent up from

The absentees include: Pitch
