hoods on the East Side have
job of selling themselves TO the
residents. The number of crimi-
mails is very small, despite the
high percentage of the total
number of criminals who are
Negroes. The support of the re-
spectacle people can make any
outbreaks against the police inn
possible.
Tact Needed
This selling job requires a tre-
mendous amount of tact and UNI
derstanding and patience. II is
too much TO expect the average
policeman to have those quail
ties. We would suggest, there
fore, that only carefully selected
men be sent to work in these
areas, and that policemen with
any traces Of prejudice be kept
far away, for their actions will
sooner or later create serious
trouble.
The police job in the area
would be handled more easily
if there were more Negro po-
licemen working in both Negro
and white neighborhoods. We
are aware of the fact that the
shortage of Negro applicants for
the police department is not
entirely the fault Of the po-
lice. The Negro community must
encourage Young men and wo-
men to seek careers in the po-
lice department We will be
helped in this job if the po-
lice. department were able to
back up its assurance that there
is no discrimination in its ranks
The widespread belief that Ne
grocs cannot expect 10 be
placed in uniformed positions OF
command in the department must
be dispellcd, as well as the be-
lief that they will only be used
in Negro ncighborhoods Only
concrete actions can accomplish
these purposes.
Remove Crime Causes
In the long run the problem
Of the community's antagonist
10 policemen can only be solved
when the causes of the high
crime rate are removed. Steps
can be taken however, to case
tho situation.
II the city can take serious
steps TO break the walls of the
ghetto that today hem the Ne
gro in. TO provide decent hous'
ing and recreation facilities, anc
to open up Job opportunities fol
all. the high crime rate can be
materially reduced.
Any steps short of these vii
Bring no lasting results.
Are our city fathers able tc
meet the challenge? Or will they
prefer to take refuge in tho
acist theories that allege tina
rhine is higher among Negroe'
because of the color Of theil
skin?

Need knowledge
knowledge of the causes Of
,bese problems is essential to
,seir solution. People who be-
|,ieye that Negroes are criminal

rem. and like Bilbo, propose to
nm them back to Africa. The

more overcrowding and respect
Employment even more, thus
Increasing the very causes OF

|tion is patiently not the solution.
Here are some of the things
|,bat must be done:
When we understand that So
|cial and economic conditions

|are in a position to take posi-
hive action to reduce 1t.
Break Blockade
The blockade on the Ne
gro population must be ended
In must become possible for Ne
|eroes to build, buy and rent
homes outside the narrow dis
|trjcts 10 which they are now
.confned
Once the over-crowding Of Ne
eroes begins to ease. many OF
.the strains which now result in
|crme will also be eased, There
lac several steps which must be
|tsken to achieve this result.
The city council must rescind
hts policy Of mot changing the
racial characteristics of neigh

win enough support for its legal
campaign against restrictive COW

Enforcement Powers
These laws and ordinances
must be backed up by real en-
torcement powers. and policed
by government and union agen-
cies.
No single factor will contri-
butte more TO the well being and
happiness Of the Negro com
munity than equal access TO all
Jobs. For il is the traditional
economic insecurity of Negro
men and women that has left
a deep scar on the Negro com
munity and its life.
Other points can certainly be
made, and we will make them
IN future articles on this sub
lect, These seem to us, however.
to be most important goals we
should seek now.
Final Item
There is a final item that re-
quircs some discussion here. The
police are confronted by a great
ly increased hostility in the Ne
gro neighborhoods. This has led
to several incidents which might
have touched off serious disor-
ders. TRIBUNE readers will
doubtless recall the recent Of.
fort Of crowd to rescue a pri-
soner from a policeman.
That effort resulted in the
killing Of one of the members of
the crowd. 1t was miraculous
that nothing more serious de-
veloped out of that fracas.
No doubt the blame for this
situation must be shared Ne
groes in Detroit, crowded into
the East Side area, whose ter
rible conditions spawn crime at
frightening rate, see policemen
arresting members of their race
with great frequency. They de-
velope the belief that many of
the arrests are unfair and dis
criminatory
They lose their belief in the
majesty of the law and in its
impartiality They are FESTIVE
and rcsentful.
Prejudiced or Frightened
The rank and file of policemen
in their turn, knowing that the
incidence of crime in the Negro
neighborhood is much higher,
are often frightened or preju-
diced or both.
They often tend to be overly
aggressive. insulting and vio-
lent This feeds the fires of re-
sentiment among the passers-by
who watch them making arrests
searching suspects or stopping
people on the street
In a sense. the policemen who
work in the Negro neighbor-

PAPER SHORTAGE

Washington, April l2.-lAP)
The Government knows there
a toilet paper shortage in some
areas, but there is no agreement
on the cause or what to dc about
it.
The Civilian Production
Agency says it's a price problem
and therefore is OPA's head
ache.
OPA says it has granted price
increases to most manufacturers
who have asked for them. Is
ready to grant more if necessary
but that price adjustments wont
help much.
One OPA official said one O.
the basic troubles is the popu-
latiOn MIGRATION since the end
of the war. Another factor. he
said, is the big influx OF Nac2-
TONERS to southern resort areas.
