TO THE REPUBLICAN, PARTY

Not many people were surpri-
sed at the November election
returns. There had been too many
broken promises and too little
real leadership shown over the
years for anyone to even expect
any different return than the one
that we had.
The new Congress will meet in
January and for the first time
in fifteen years it will have a
Republican majority in both
houses. That situation is not due
to the fact that the majority of
citizens love the Republican party.
1t was not because they thought
the Republican were greater men.
1t was because these voters
feared the leadership of the other
party and because they WEI tired
of RECOMMENDATION and tired of
managed economy" They want
to return to fundamental Ameri-
can policies and to the American
way of life.
And now-my Republican friend
Of I have any you lave a
serious duty to perform and as
you do it, rests the future of your
party and perhaps even the fate
of your nation. There are serious
problems to be solved. Great
wrongs to be righted and great
plans to be made.
Somehow we feel that tie first
duty you owe the citizens of the
nation is to take the government
out of business. Everytime a tax
free government institution makes
a sale, it blocks one by an indie
pendent business man and takes
away from him some profit from
which he pays his taxes. Every
time any group receives special
consideration the privileges grant
ed are taken from others. Ii is
your job to end these wrong.
You will be urged to punish
labor" by enacting severe laws.

must put an end to that but do
not forget that the laborers have

of fungus growths, he found many

suspects that's because he didn't
want to. The South had been suf-

No doubt Carver thought God

That is the brief biography of
George Washington Carver.
But now we must ask ourselves,
for what shall We honor him most
today:
Shall we honor him because
he was a Negro? Yes, of course.
This record of a man born
slave, who wrested an education
from an inimical white society,
and with it achieved so greatly,
is a spectacular and heartening
triumph for all Negroes, and for
all white people who wish to see
them fulfill their American des-
tiny. But to honor Carver prim-
arily as a Negro, is somehow
to patronize him. 1t is to say,
in effect, that what he accom-
plished is notable chiefly because
he was a Negro. 1t is to deny
him something, by according him
praise for the one thing over
which he had no control the
color of his skin. Thus in honoring
him primarily as Negro, we
would belittle him as a scientist.
Then shall we honor him prim-
arily as a scientist regardless, as
the expression goes, of color, or
birth? Yes, of course. How shall
mankind ever honor enough a
man whose discoveries made life
richer and easier for hundreds of
thousands of Southerners, both
black and white? And yet to
honor him primarily as a scien-
fist is somehow to ignore that
very mysterious quality of his sue
cess: the thing in him, the force
in him, the strength in him, which
brought him from the lowest econ
omic depths of American life, to
the pinnacle of world fame. 1t
is this something in him that we
should honor. It is this something
which makes him stand on
high and singular ground above
