O
United World Order or BiIbOism
BY Joseph H. Nelson

Dor, the late Gene Talmadge,
Bilbo was a well educated man
who capitalized on the ignor-
ance and prejudice of his con-
stituents. Ultimately it is impos-
sible for such demagogues to
win because the cards are
stacked against them.
If America can unite and har-
monte the races or various eth
mic groups which have made
this country what is is thereby
providing an example for Europe
and the rest of the world, war
and disorder could be averted
This may be our last opportun-
ity. For we can never expect to
attain world peace and universal
brotherhood until our country,
the United States of America,
has been able to establish racial
amity and unity among our
white and colored citizens, all
groups or minorities and ultim-
ately realizing the Indignation of
all nations. the oneness of the
ntire humon family. the one
ness of the universe; hence
creating facilities of a world Or
der.
Twice America has had a
great opportunity to play her
proper role in world affairs
latter World War I and IL.
However, we have each time
failed to assume responsibility
which has caused a general
breakdown. If we do not consider
a moral rearmament and change
of attitude there is a possibility
OF ending up at some future date
by building new order now in
the making though yet unborn
upon the ruins of an old one.
This may be our last clean
chance. We who would educate
all nations must prove we can
educate uor own citizens to an
appreciation Of the responsible
tiles and benefits we enjoy be
! cause we are free Americans
Therefore, if we would build a
world order and attain the most
great peace for one united hui
mainly; we must begin by build
ing the best possible America:
There are a few minor Bilbos
| left. The sooner we get rid Of
| them, the nearer we shall be to
the indignation and unity Of the
world of humanity which is OBJ
viously a requisite to universal
| peace and brotherhood.

fifty rooms. Some Of the extra

accommodations is made neces-
sarv by the large number of APP

We admit that America is not
a perfect country making prac-
tice conform with profession in
every single instance. No one ever
claimed perfection for America.
But we are correct when we
maintain that the principles Of
equal justice and equal rights
are recognized American prime
iples-and that we have made,
and are making, progress toward
putting them into practice.
We do not need to be reminded
that some Americans disgrace
our country by the things they
say and 90. We know about The
vandals who desecrated num-
erous graves in the Jewish Gem
etaries of Waldheim, a suburb
If Chicago. We also know that
clergymen. civic leaders and
businessmen of the community
we're so outraged that they joined
forces for experimenting the des-
ecrators. We know that on July
25th the Ku Klux Khan swore in
some new members at Maryville,
Tennessee, which is near Knox
yille-and that the Khan doesn't
fulfill the American ideals Of
equal justice and equal rights by
its anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish,
and anti-colored program At the
same time we know that a Knox
County grand jury, citing laws
which bar "night-riding, intimi-
eating. and marauding," found
three KIansmen guilty of burn
ing crosses in Knoxville. and

its own way.
But equally good news for AM

Southwestern rural area of the

hundred years ago, a group Of
foreigners founded a country

Miss Emily Eliot Of Cambridge

Miss Emily Eliot of Cambridge,
secretary of the Quill Club, de-
ported herself in such a manner
as to win friends for the race
and give the whites a chance to
mix and mingle with a refined
young lady. How fortunate for
our race that Miss Elliot, so
young, and still in college, is be-
ing rooted and grounded in the
fundamentals of writings. With
her technique and with enlarg-
ing experience she is destined to
make a real contribution to lit
erature. BY reason of her schol-
arship It was made possible for
her to attend the Durham's
Writer'S Conference through a
group OF white women interest
ed in encouraging promising
writer's, I know that the forward
looking women of the race are
going to make it poSsibue for
cur promising writer's to have
a chance David Woodbury., one

erS, stressed what a virgin field

l wonder if we give creative lit
erature the place it ought to
have in our hearts. So often the
only accurate yardstick to judge
a people is their literature. Some
years ago a white leader said our
race was with out hope bsca use
it hap not produced literature.
The war took from Germany
many things, but her great
books and her great music still
abide. Our greatest need is for
magazines where the essays, the
feature articles, the short stor-
les and poems of the writer's of
our race can have an outlet. We
are supporting any number Of
vanity magazines. hope some
one with money will accept this
challenge to do a great and
worthwhile thing. And it can be
made to pay. 1t will be a blessing
to our young writer's.
My eyes have been watching
the ways of other minorities in
our student group. Some are
frightened to death by the pres
ence of a black man, and studi-
cusly shun him. We must try to
open their eyes to our common
cause. Others see the need Of
united front. We must cultivate
their friendships, invite them
into our homes and clubs, have
them speaker in our churches.
The older generation of whites
may tolerate us. but those of the
new generation that are for us,
show a boldness, sincerity
that is refreshing. More and
more dawns the consciousness
that they that are for us are
