Yes; we are our brothers keep
err! We suffer from the same
transgression of law and every
violation of civility, and from
their degradation as well.
We believe our ministers. our
business and professional men do
make an effort to teach and train
our race. Especially our Y.W.C.A.
and our Y.M.C.A. in their efforts
to draw a circle about our juve-
niles. Unless that circle is broad
ened enough to encompass larger
number of our migrants who are
not attracted to the churches and
lecture rooms, we may find our
selves aboard the sunset bus.
Crime and deplorable public
conduct have already done their
ungodly part in smearing our good
name in Seattle. Our migrants,
bred and reared on Jim Crow
ISM" have not acquired the rudi-
ments of our civic life, nor of our
public behavior. so deep seated is
their baneful Jim Crow breeding.
A survey published by the Jour
nal of Educational Sociology of
New York University states the
Pacific Coast is the present race
relations frontier. Among those
making the survey was Carey Nc
Williams, Pacific Coast authority
on West Coast problems; DR.. Rob-
ert O'Brien of the University of
Washington; the Urban League;
NAACP and others.
More than 100000 Negro mi
grants and a larger number of
whites, all from the rural south,
came to the coast during the late
war and few are going back. We
have problem. 1t Is not going to
be solved alone by neither Negroes

New Jersey Judge
Bars OAR from Taking
Part in NaturaIizations

TRENTON, N. Until the
four Trenton chapters of the
Daughters of the American Revo-
luton repudiate the national
OARS refusal to grant pianist Ha-
eel Scott the use of their Consti
tuition hall in Washington, they
will not, at his request, partici-
pate in naturalization proceedings
in his court, federal Judge Philip
Forman said last week.
The judge told the chairman OF
the local Americanization Commit.
tee that the OARS recent and
much-publicized anti-Negro deci-
sion was not the kind of policy
that could be "reconciled with
doctrines of American citizenship
as expounded in the Declaration
of Independence, where it is as.
serted that all men are created
equal. That text embodies the
spirit of naturalization in this
court, and the reported action
was, in my opinion, Numerically
opposed to it."

Group thinking be BOTH asset and liability
and it Is often the latter than the former.
Moreover, group thinking is INDISCRIMINATIVE
and seldom takes ognzance of individual preferences and
yet everyone knows that there many DIFFERENT
individuals in a group there persons in it.
Consequently generalizations about groups are
fallacious and therefore dangerous.

Jim Grow Travel Law
To Be Tested in the
US. Supreme Court

WASHINGTON, D. Cat last
clear case to test the Jim Crow
travel laws of southern states
which segregate interstate passen-
gers on interstate carriers is be-
fore the United States Supreme
Court.
Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone
on Nov. 10 signed an order allow
Ing the appeal of Irene Morgan
from the judgment of the Su-
preme Court of Virginia affirm
ing her conviction of violation of
the Jim Crow transportation stat
ute of Virginia. The case came up
on direct appeal instead of petit
ton for writ of certiorari because
the appeal challenged the consti-
nationality of the statute in Vir-
ginia.
Irene Morgan, on July 16, 1914,
was a passenger on a Greyhound
bus from Closter county, Virginia,
to Baltimore, Maryland. When the
bus arrived in Saluda, Virginia,
defendant was requested to move
back to the rear of the bus. She
was arrested and charged with
violation of the Virginia statute
requiring segregation of passen-
gers, and on Oct. IS, 1914, was
convicted and fined $40.
Her case was promptly appealed
to the Supreme Court of Virginia
on writ of error, and on June 6,
1945, her conviction was affirmed
by that court which held that the
Virginia statute was constitution
al and applied to interstate as
we'll as local passengers. A mo-
ton for rehearing was promptly
filed and was denied by the Su-
preme Court in September, 1945

This evil brew of MOB THINKING prevents US from
seeing each person UNIQUE individual and treating

RACE RELATIONS
The Khan Again

From Georgia comes the not
surprising news that the Ku Klux
Khan has been revived and has
about 10000 dues-paying men,
bers in that state alone. One of
its purposes, as might be expected,
is, in the words of Grand Dragon
Samuel Green, protection of
home and the chastity of white
womanhood." 1t also announces
the continuation of its fight
against Communism, and altho
Jews and Catholics are not mem
toned, it declares for "the mix
ing of those who have the same
IDEAS" which might be their way
of stating opposition to Jews and
Catholics. The Joining fee is $40
and annual dues are Sc, with an
additional SO for an insurance
fund.
Negroes who claim to have diff
ficulty in finding 81 or $3.50 per
year to join the NAACP might
take note.

we could appeal to their sense of

free from race friction. 1t will be
too late till force is used resulting

erl Had some of our church men
or business men who knew Eugene
Moszee intimately, impressed him
his approach to hating discrimi-
nation was wrong, we would to-

If this same energy had been
centered in placing a Negro wo-
man and two or three Negro men

would be far more satisfactory
than dozen indignation meet

Obviously a better team than the
final result shows, the British sufi
fered letdown at the worst possible
time this season. After battling on
even terms through the first halt
the British seemed to go completely
to pieces in the second and almost
gave the match to the winners.
Delpark got a break when the
British goalie completely misjudged
a shot that bounced into the net for
81 lead, and it was not long after
when the losers defense was caught
out of position when another boot
went through the posts. The British
meanwhile, missed innumerable
scoring chances, completely nullify-
