DISCRIMINATION, RACIAL

It seems to that speakers in the House of Representatives yesterday afternoon who argued that racial discrimination did not exist in the various divisions of Alaska very much mistaken else not very observant Racial discrimination certainly does exist in Alaska it exists not only in every and Territory of the United States but through out the world. One does not have to go very far in Alaska to discover many instances of discrimination against the Indians, Aleuts and Eskmos.
 Discrimination exists. That much should be ad- mitted by all ~9 llr In connection with this situation, Representative Anderson has introduced in the House bill which would provide for fun and equal accommodations facilities and privileges to all citizens in places of public accommodation within the jurisdiction of the Territory of Alaska to provide penalties for viola tions -.
 Yesterday the House indicated that it would pass this bill by a large majority.
 We repeat-discrminat certainly does exist.
 The question in minds is this:
 Will the passage of this bill eliminate discrim- Can it aid in the elimination of racial discrim- tnation? .-.. s4gz Y Can discrimination be erased by law? a. 85 st AR Racial discrimination exists in many other ways than in denying to members of certain color the accommodations of a saloon theatre, hotel or beauty parlor.
 These things are of minor importance in racial
 
 actions of denial of privileges which constitutes the basis of discrimination It is the attitude of which believes itself to be the chosen the superior race. in looking down upon another as inferior that is the root of racial discrimination E{ff
 No law will change this attitude. No law can force member of to take member of another into his home into his social activities against his will. No law force member of one race to speak to a member of another race the street.
 No law force business man. who is of one race, deal pleasantly with customer who happens to be of another
 We know of playfeld for children-a fine play field The white children this fine payfield for themselves. The Indian children playground that is not good-usualy the streets alleyways. Yet there is nothing to keep the Indian children from playing the fine playground They can play there they fish But they don't because the white children refuse to play with them. This makes the Indian children unhappy and it is only fun to play when you are happy . # No law remedy thisssitlation, & ss .~ On the contrary, we honestly believe that a law

hence. And only a few months later he was paying at a rate of more than s1 pound to get rubber from Brazil.
 Again in Mexico, Banker oJnes refused to pay more than $l00 a flask for mercury. Japan was pay ing as high as $230 flask, and mercury was vitally needed for making shells. But Jesse wouldn't go a cent higher. Furthermore Jesse wouldn't buy the mercury except through the banks in Mexico City, who took a commis- sion from the natives, with the result that the natives preferred to sell direct to the Japs. So until Mexico declared war, the Japs got more of Mexico's mercury.

in addition, war business and &C., companying wealth were concen- trated as never before in the hands of Roosevelt's old enemies - Big Business. Six companies got more than SO per cent of all the war orders. General Motors, Du Fonts, Newport News Shipbuilding, Beth lehem Shipbuilding, Curtiss- Wright, The Aluminium CorporationD In addition, 100 companies got 30 per cent of the war orders. Instead Of dispensing business, the war did exactly the opposite.
 Today the biggest question in the minds of business, and of the conservative Senators who so con- scientiously represent them in the fight against Wallace is: Who will get these war plants after the war?
 Jesse Jones up until January 20 was in general charge of their dis position-Subject to certain counter checks by the War Surplus Prop erty Board. He also was completely in charge of new loans to these and other companies. Economically, he was the most powerful man in the world, and the amazing thing about it was that, thanks to a powerful lobby of friends in the Senate, he was able to maintain that power despite the fact that his record for shortsightedness in ordering vital war supplies is almost unbe- lievable.
 For instance, Jesse waited until March 5, three months after Pear Harbor, the day before Batavia capital of the Dutch East Indies

fell to the Japs, before trying to order all the quinine remaining in that area. This was the only re- rlaining source of quinine. And weeks before, the State Department had warned Jones that the Dutch East Indies were in danger and he must buy quinine.
 In regard to tin, Jones was asked by the State Department and the National Defense Council as early as two years before Pearl Harbor to grant a loan to build a tin shelter in the United States. They were afraid our normal tin would be cut off from Singapore. But Jesse refused to budge. And as result, housewives today are still salvaging their tin cans.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not c0m,peW
THURSDAY. FEBRUARY

l THURSDAY, tEBRUAH1 l 1 Mixed planetary aspects are ac- tive today which should be favor- able for many lines of constructive work
 HEART AND HOME: The world conflict between conservative and ! liberal ideas will be reflected in homes. The younger generation will be restive under control. Par ents will have reason to seek wisdom and to exercise patience in dealing with boys and girls.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: While trade will continue good, there will be a growing anxiety about postwar developments in the world of com merce. Sacrifice of individual plans will be demanded by coming events.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Reaction ary elements will retard war efforts and will inject fears where foresight and courage are necessary. This month and next will see the nation aroused to it's supreme strength in combat.
 INTERNATIONAL FFAIRS S: New personalities will supplant many German leaders and pleas of innocence will meet accusations of horrible guilt in which all rules of war have been ignored Although the United Nations defeat the Axis armies, their greatest task is to overcome mad ideas.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of much encouragement and progress. Overgenerosity should be avoided.
 Children born on this day pro- bably will be talented and succNs- ful, but they may be self-centered and unwisely ambitious.

peatedly.
 The second reason for the delay was that even after Jesse started the synthetic rubber factories, he put all his eggs in one basket-that of the big companies. He put all hls rubber production in the hands of the Standard Oil of New Jersey patent pool, headed by his old Texas friend, the late William Parish. And despite, the fact that the 31 rubber factories to be built by the Standard group were not to be even completed until 1944, Jesse stuck to them until blasted loose by the Baruch report on rubber. The Baruch report, incidentally, severely criticized Jones for putting all his eggs in one basket and for not accepting the Russian offer to lend us their rubber patents.
 Jones, however, was playing with his old friends. And big companies had their eyes on the postwar world. After the war they knew that aviation would be a booming industry, would demand high oc- tane gasoline, which is by-pro- duct of synthetic rubber They would have the high octane re- fineries. Also they knew that the postwar automobile will feature a small engine using high octane. So the Standard of New Jersey group and others favored by Jesse with lush rubber contracts will be all set for the postwar world.
 That is what the Senate fight is all about. That is why you can understand how the big firms now operating government built and government-owned war plants don't want anyone like Henry Wallace who believes in the common man interfering with their plans for the future.
