lose preStl9e because OF Violent
attacks against him in the govern
ment controlled press, but he
barely escaped several attempts or
his life by unknown persons
| He tolerated even these efforts tc
kill him, in the hope that sooner OF
later the world situation would i'm
prove and enable his Peasant Party
which Loyalty followed him, to con-
tribute to the political and economic
revival of Poland. Insofar as Mos
COW was concerned, the Yalta agree
ment was dead and buried. The
Peasant leader had hopes, however
that the Kremlin would welcome his
cooperation, particularly since it
knew the peasants were strongly be-
hind him.
The trial of Mr.. Mikola jczyk's S
principal lieutenants in Krakow in
August this year was an eye-opener.
These men were all accused Of being
the tools of the intelligence serv-
ices of the imperial monsters, Amer
lea and Britain. They all received
long sentences on trumped up
charges.
Knew Time Was Up.
Thus the real Polish Peasant
Party was reduced to insignificance
In a secret talk with American Con-
gress members who visited Poland
recently, Mr.. Mikolajczyk said his
time was up and that unless he
managed to escape he would be as
sassinated before the end of the
year. Mr.. Mikolajczyk had received
strong hints that his wartime con-
nection with the Fascist" govern
ment in exile could not be wiped out
except in blood.
Politically Mr.. Mikola jczyk's
escape is expected to offer greater
to the Polish puppet
government than if he had been
killed. The peasants, who believed
in their leader and applauded his
decision to return to Poland under
dangerous circumstances, are ex-
pected now to be disspirited. So
long as Mr.. Mikola jczyk was the OBJ
ject of persecution by the govern
ment, the peasants rallied to his
Every time one of his prin-
cipal party officials was purged, they
retaliated against the MVD and its
Polish counterpart.
Now the Warsaw officials can tell
the peasants that their leader has
deserted them and Is going to live
in comfort among his employers"
in America. They will say that he
was fundamentally a Fascist and is
returning to his Fascist environ
nent-the capitalistic United States.
An important segment of Poland's
to Moscow's vassalage will
thus be eliminated. Mr.. Mikolajc-
zyk's words from the West will have
less effect on the peasants now that
he has escaped than If he had never
gone to Poland at all.

Deadliness of Golf.
I didn't realize that golf was a
deadly pastime for 40 year olds
until I read an article by some
medicine man or the other. He said
that to play more than 18 holes
was dangerous; that to walk rapidly
was even more dangerous, and that
to protect what little hearts We had
left, it would be sensible to walk
backward up any and all hills we
encountered on golf courses.

TO EACH HIS OWN
BY Walter J. Stevens

With many others went to

others expected to be enlight-
ened on the early beginnings
and progress Of our NEGRO" an
cestors. was terribly dis APP
pointed not to hear some facts
that would have sharpened my
anticipation for the coming
Negro" history week. Instead,
Dr. Woodson chose to expound
a certain kind of philosophy with
which colored people throughout
the country are all too familiar.
At one place he acknowledged
that his remarks sounded like
the Booker T. Washington
theory. It not only sounded like
it to me, but it was exactly that.
For instance the greatness that
he attributed to Frederick Doug
lass was predicated upon Doug
lass's advice to the colored
people to work with leather,
wood and iron, rather than upon
Douglass's great work with the
Massachusetts Anti-Slavery So
ciety, and los remarkable ach-
ievement of persuading the Gov
eminent to accept colored men
as soldiers in the Civil War.
I was also chagrined at the
speakers failure to mention
Bostons great contribution to
the history of the colored race,
and his passing unnoticed the
graciousness and worthwhile
achievements of the Aristo Club.

SEGREGATION

Of the women's garment indus
try was not always what it is
today-a conglomeration of
thirty-odd racial, religious and
nationality groups.
II I were asked what factors
are most responsible for the
decent and harmonious rela-
tionships which today prevail
in the women's garment work
ers organization, I would reply
as follows:
First, by working alongside
one another, people got to know
one another, and foolishly ac-
quired prejudice as well as pre-
conceived notions ultimately
gave way to humane under
standing and good fellowship.
Second, association in shop
union activities leads to a COM
mon bond of friendship and
comradeship.
Third, travelling to and from
work together, living in prox-
unity to one another and par
ticipating in joint communal
activity, tend to erase what
ever is left of tn estupid notion
that color of skin or size of
nose is a criterion of intelli-
gence or personal worth.
Here in this big union of
100000 members we learned
lesson which has brought to its
members and to the industry
generally a great deal of hap
piness and strength; a lesson
deserving further examination;
an experiment worthy of rep
etition - APA.

IN the struggle for better
understanding among peoples,
the question Of segregation is,
unfortunately. not receiving
sufficient attention.
Protagonists of tolerance,
understanding and full racial
equality have done a good job
in diagnosing the virus of race
prejudice They have demon
strated that intolerance feeds
on ignorance and breeds fur
Their hatreds and bigotry. They
have shown that these hatreds
are not limited to the economic
field alone but have spread into
the cultural and social spheres
as well. They have mapped out
workable programs based upon
experience and understanding.
Some of these proposals, such
as the widespread distribution
of educational literature, the
holding of interracial and in
terfaith conferences, are most
laudable. But it is difhcult to
understand the lack of empha-
sis on the elimination Of seq
regation.
One can find out good deal
about a people by reading its
literature, by an acquaintance
with its culture, but none of
these are a substitute for per-
sonal contact. The Information
