A FEDERAL JUDGE

The appointment Of Irwin c. Moison to a Fed
era judgeship in New York by President Truman
marks the first time in our history that we have
had a Negro federal Judge in continental United
States. Mr.. Moison will not have to leave the
mainland Of the country to carry out his judicial
duties Senate confirmation Of his appointment is
expected although some sharp language may be ex-
changed among the Senator'S in the process.
Mr. Mollison is an able and experienced lawyer
member of the Chicago Board of Education and
an active Democrat. The sponsors of Mr. Molison
include Senator Scott Lucas of Illinois, Congress-
man William Dawson and the liberal wing of the
Democratic party. No matter what Mr.. B Ill o
thinks about the appointment, quite few of his
colleagues are going down the line for Mr. Molison
and democracy.
President Truman must be given due credit for
this appointment. However valid may be the criti-
cisms some Negro leaders have made of his admins
traton, the President has demonstrated that he
is not afraid to break precedent when it suits his
purposes We have noted before that Mr.. Truman
seems inclined to follow the liberal tradition of his
predecessor in the presidency. In naming Mr. Molli
son to the Federal bench the President has taken
positive and encouraging step in his own right.
After all it is deeds not words that count If Mr..
Truman continues to take such steps during his adj
mnstration, no intelligent Negro will be able to
hold his Missouri drawl against him.

A GOOD IDEA

DR.. Everett r. Clnchy pres dent of the Ma
tional Conference of Christians and Jews, at a
luncheon meeting last week declared IF 600 scIen-
fists work ng together can produce the atom bomb,
then 600 scientists could be put to work on the job
of inter-group hatreds." Speaking on the same
occasion, Basil OConnor, national chairman of the
American Red Cross, stated that we cannot con-
tinue to wage war Ike physical giants and to seek
peace like in ellectual pygmies.
We hold with these speakers that inter-group
peace in America demands that our best brains be
put to work now. Nat onal unity and domestic
peace is fun 'amenta to the operation of our demo-
cratic system The racial and religious hatreds
which are pulling the peoples of our country further
apart constitute threat which must be faced
souarely Hiding our heads in the sand and play
ing down" the true state of inter-group relation
ships will prove Just as foohardy for us as it did for
Germans who dismissed Hitler in the early days as
just crackpot.
The Federal government should face the facts
and act with the same dispatch on this problem of
peace in America as it did on the problems of war
abroad. There are many foolish people who seem
to think they can make monster disappear by
turning their backs to it. The monster Of racism
is real and menacing and our government should
recogn re its responsibility to defend democracy
from its attacks.
The Federal government can mobilize the in
teectual resources of the nation for this job just
as readily as it modified scientists to perfect the
atomic bomb. The atomic bomb helped us win the
war and it is possible that as result Of the abors
of intellectual leaders on national project Of race
relations we may eventually win the peace

THE SCREWBAIIS

That queer assortment of screWbals on the De
troit Housing Commission put on another spectacle
last week and won another round Of applause from
local Klansmen and their fellow travellers. Com
missioner Horace White was as sgusted with his
colleagues as the rest of us, and he told reporters
that the Commission, by re Getting the plea of War
Veteran Charles Johnson, took IAN irretrievable
backward step To be sure e Commissioners
have been walking backward so long, their eyes
must by now be in the back of their heads.
Young Johnson, fresh from the wars, probably
thought he was at last done with Nazis and Fascsts
Now he has discovered that some Of our city fathers
81 re many of the opinions of the two-b gangsters
who worked for Hitler. The contemptuous AFRO
gance of the Commissioners, who openly declare
that they dscrim nate against Negro citizens and
in It that they are go ng to continue to dlscrlmi-
n against them has aroused bitterness in the Me-
gro community
These Commissioners know full we'll that they
are violating the spirit and the letter OF the Amerl-
can constitution They know that they are pandef-
ing to prejudices. They know further that their
az ION is provocative and infammatory They know
also that they are appeasing the worst elements IN
our population, the very elements which will destroy
democracy as soon as they possibly can. In short,
they know they are wrong and they don't give
hang.
What shall we do about it? We must work to
rally the decent people, white and colored, behind
the elect on of new administration We must try
to put clean, honest Americans who believe in de-
mocracy in public office. We must join hands with
decent white people and together work to change
the cl mate of public opinion. There are thousands

WE AGREE

The fighting in the Pacific in which natives are
demanding freedom and pitting themselves against
their former masters is very embarrassing to the
big boys who call themselves liberators The French
and the Dutch are having a tough time convincing
the colonals in the East that European rule is bet
ter than independence and freedom.
The natives have their grievances against i'm
peral rule and they don't share an sentimental at
tachment to the big white fathers who want to
claim them now. Last week on this subject the New
York Post editorialized: "Old style coloniasm, with
it's foundations set in mass Of underprivileged,
derpaid natives is too much of threat to decent
wages and prices everywhere, too much of threat
to the shaky peace of the world to be tolerated a
moment longer" On this we certainly agree.
