THE URBAN
LEAGUE SERVES

There can be little doubt that
the most comprehensive Negro
social service program in operation
today is that of the National
Urban League.
There is scarcely a field of
human activity in which it is not
active.
In some way every Negro in the
United States benefits from the
operations of both the National
and local Leagues.
Job placement, creation of Job
opportunities. vocational guidance,
promotion of good interracial re-
lations in business, factory and
community in general - and a
variety of other problems - all
command attention and scientific
treatment by the Urban League

His GRAFTON follows:
NEGRO AND
THE CONSTITUTION

Because white is the predomin-
ant race in America, there Is a
tendency to look upon the Negroes
as foreigners. Nothing could be
more untrue. Only ! Negro in 200
alive today was born abroad,
whereas the number of foreign
born in the general population is
20 times as great.
The Negroes have always loved
America. unlike the other groups
they know no other country, and
their loyalty has never been
known to waver at any time How
ever, a strange and glaring In
consistency has long since crept
into American politics whereby
the Federal Constitution has failed
to protect the political and even
civil rights of the Negro. 1917
of Americas population.
When we say the Constitution
has partially failed to protect the
rights of the colored race, do we
mean that it has not recognized
our civil rights? No, not at all.
1t is true that the original Con-
stitution failed miserably and dis
gracefully to shield us. since 1t
left our people as slaves This
was so egregiously unjust that
Thomas jefferson wrote at the
time, concerning the slavery ques-
ton; Il tremble for my country
when | reflect that God is just,
and that His justice cannot be
restrained forever"
But the Constitution as amend
ed in the. 18th, 14th and 18th
Amendments, does give to the Ne
gro all of his political and civil
rights. Just as the first ten Am
endments constitute the Bill of
Rights for the white race, so these
three amendments are the Bill
of Rights for the colored. for they
make the original ten amendments
applicable and operative for us
all. The 18th Amendment abolish
es slavery, the 14th guarantees
civil rights to every American,
while the 18th affords us the
right to vote.
If the Constitution as thus am
ended, guarantees us all these
things, how can we say we have
not been protected by it? Simply
because it has not been enforced
The Federal government, is guilty
not of malice towards our race,
but of neglect and, at most, pass
i've connivance.
