South Speaks

to killing and hamstringing any
legislation which would construc-
lively come to grips with any prob
lem affecting the Negro People.
For instance, these men who do
all in their power to keep the Ne
gro down, are the very ones who
fought the life out of the veterans
housing bill because they could fore
see Negro veterans getting money
with which to build decent homes
and liberating themselves and their
families from blighted and slum
areas.
The unholy thirty odd anti-Negro
Congressman want to keep the
masses in the slums where they are
devoured by rent sharks. These
Congressman are tools of those who
oppose socialiZed medicine for the
INDECENT, federal aid to education,
fair employment practice, aboli-
ton of the poll tax and other pro-
posed liberal legislation on a racial
basis.
A Liberal Congressman told me
of how they try to beat them into
line by referring to them as niger
lovers" and Communists; told of
having been told by one of them
in the presence of a number of his
cohorts that they were a disgrace
to the South" and ought to remem-
Der that Negroes Of today are the
descendants of slaves and, there
fore, should not be accorded equal
treatment or opportunity.
An alert and hateless Congress
man replied, you stopped reading
your history too soon, otherwise
you would have discovered by going
further back that your ancestors
were swoOped down upon and for
chilly enslaved in other years"
A voter in his state stood up in
the church where the Congressman
had been invited to speak and
yelled, Il am for white supremacy,
| hear tell that you are a niger
lover-what about it,"
Fifty people in the congregation
of 800 clapped their hands and the
white supremacist sat down.
L iN WIZ VI Nit NOllk on
her way home that night observed
that the incident represented a sign
Of hope in the deep South.
This sort Of thing made me agree
with Carl Murphy Of the Afro
American Newspapers that there
are millions and millions Of Amer
leans, North and South, who have
not bowed in unconditional surren-
der to hate, prejudice, ignorance
and benighted way of life; that
America is a great country: that
the Nation is beginning to recog-
nize that, as Representative Luther
Patrick and | agree, the reaction
aries effort to keep the Negro down
represents a greater threat to our
country than communism. and stop
ping the forces who thwart the will
of the people because Of racial and
religious prejudice is the most i'm
portant thing before the American
people today.

ton. is one of the outstanding pro-
gressives Of the country. He is a
former dean of the University of

Representative Adam Clayton
Powell, Jr., Democrat, of New York,
asked Herbert H. Lehman before
he resigned as director general Of
the United Nations Relief and Re-
Mobilization Administration to pro-
mote Blanchard Baker, a New
Yorker, from a UNRRA admins
trative field officer to a deputy field
director. Baker is serving in the
office of the UNRRA field director
at Lubbock, Germany.
David X. Niles, administrative
assistant to President Truman, has
informed Mr.. Powell that Attorney
General Tom c. Clark is working
on the question Of releasing con-
scientious war DIRECTORS from pris-
on. Mr.. Powell asked the Presi-
dent to issue a proclamation re-
leasing them and restoring their
civil rights.
The $64 question: Who will sue
coed Raphael O'Hara Lanier as
special assistant, Bureau of Areas,

Acceptance by Bob Weaver Of
the post of supply officer of the
UNRRA Ukrainian mission was no
surprise in informed circles. A
schism had developed in the Amer
lean Council on Race Relations in
Chicago, Of which he was director
Of community services, and it was
a question whether he would stay
with that organization or seek a
job elsewhere.
Now that the hearings on the
nomination Of Edwin W. Pauley to

Another gentleman with the
interest of the Race at
heart has come forward with
a panacea for solving once
and for all the American
Negroes dilemma. He is a DR..
William A. Brown, LA Casa Will
ladora," Cave Junction, Illinois Val
ley, Oregon.
don't know DR.. Brown and ]
don't know whether he is white or
colored but his program labelled
Westinghouse: Land of the Free
Born" came TO me in a mimeo-
graphed tract and that is the rea-
son for this piece. Westinghouse,
according to DR.. Brown, sis en-
visiOned as a living memorial to
the great American Educator, DR..
Booker T. Washington. 1t takes
the form of a vast cooperative
Negro Community Enterprise in
Cameron Parish, Louisiana, oppo-
site Port Arthur, Texas. AS pro-
jected, it contains 400 square miles
within a proposed city named
Westinghouse and 900 square miles
contiguous thereto, this area to be
reserved absolutely for every sort
and size of Negro-Initiated IN
DUSTRIES to be Negro Owned and
Negro Managed. In developing
Westinghouse the Gulf of Mexico
is to be made the MexicO-America
Inland Sea-"
DR.. Browns Westinghouse har-
Dor would be made large enough to
provide for all the shipping in the
Mexico American inland sea and
establish ample anchorage for the
American Navy.
In 1850, DIR. Brown wants to
stage Golden Jubilee of Booker
T. Washington's launching Of the
National Negro Business League
with a most fittingly inaugurated
international, interracial exposition
Of the 60 colored nations; thus
making Westinghouse the cultural,
commercial, fiducial, industrial,
recreational, educational, musical,
spiritual center of the 500, 100000
colored people of all the wide, wide
world. Brother Brown wakes fur
Their eloquent in discussing this
brand new dream of racial advance
ment by concentrating on two
names-George Washington, the
first President of the United States,
and Of course, a white man, and
Booker 7. Washington, a Negro
Washington who adopted the name
Of the white man and later became
world famous for his endeavors in
racial advancement through the
race working with their hands. DIR.
Browns program is sOlidly ma
tionalistic and was set up within the
American system, the monster
black belt sent to the reservations
Of the West upon which the Indian
braves are allowed to roam, in the
most prejudiced section of the
United States outside Of Florida
and Mississippi. The Jim Crow
Washingtonia would be hemmed in
on three sides by various mixtures
of the cracker redneck element,
with Uncle Sans Navy manned
as per custom by whites anchored
at business-like distance off shore
so that all that could happen in
Washingtonia would be loud hOsan-
mas, hand-clapping, singing of
spiritunls, picking cotton and other
activities the white man ascribes
to US as our purely racial inherit
ance.

sition, development, disposition and
control of all Washingtonia prop
erty, with the approval of all enter

Dear Joe
By JAMES L. HICKS
Dear Joe:

Do you have a job yet?
Well you are not alone. At the
end of February there were 1,l31,-
1874 veterans looking for work. l
wonder what happened to all those
jobs the country was going to save
for the boys when they came home ?
This is just a drop in the bucket,
Joe, but it may help a little-the
Veterans Administration is look
ing for qualined men and women
to fill $50 vacancies as special serv-
ice chiefs, recreational directors
and recreational aides in VA hos
pitfalls. The starting salaries range
from $500 to $3.50 per year.
Your VA branch office has all
the details about these jobs. Drop
in and hle your application. It's
not hard to qualify for the $500
jobs. If you were a special serv-
ice officer in your Outht or a spe-
cial service non-cOm, you should be
able to make it.
The five grand jobs call for a
little more experience, such as hav-
ing been a playground director for
three years, or a dramatic coach
or a recreatiOnal director for the
same period of time.
Don't send your application to
Washington as it will only be a
waste OF time. Get the habit of
dealing through your local Veter-
ans Administration branch office.
1t has all the power to help you that
the office in Washington has.
Joe, if you don't have a job, it
seems kind of foolish to talk to
you about income taxes but the
income tax people are so rugged
maybe we had better take look at
them anyway.
II you were an enlisted man,
you were exempt from filing an
income tax return until your tour
of duty was over, providing you
didn't receive money from other
sources.
When | say "other sources" l
don't mean the deal you made with
that carton of cigarettes in Paris
or that jeep tire you let that poor
Australian have up near Darwin
for 20 bloody pounds. | don't think
you'd better mention those deals,
Joe, when you file your income tax
statements.
However, if you were a commits
stoned officer Sissy in pink panta-
loons), you are subject to tax If
you earned more than $2,000-and
show me an officer who didn't!
If you were released in 1945 and
are now gainfully employed, you
are expected to fill out Income Tax
form W.. 1t is important that

Chairman Robinson, whose committee investigated the con- struction of the Alcan highway, told the House the reports of the records of the original investiga- tors showed no evidence of irreg- ularities. The committee made a four month investigation of the l,422 mile road and said, consid- ering it was a military project, un- dertaken when United States was straining every effort to get mate rials and war munitions to the Territory for the Army. "If Japan had taken advantage of the situa- ton during 1922, it is the opinion of high military leaders it could have fully occupied the Territory"
