Membership
Campaign Nears
Halfway Mark
Committee Steps
Up Efforts AS
Workers SET Pace

The membership campaign of
the Parrish St. Branch Y.M.C.A.
neared the half way mark at the
third report meeting, Monday May
10th. Both the Executive Com
mittee and Division workers are
lending all their efforts in the di-
rection of the final push in order
to make the campaign a success
both from the standpoint of men,
bers and finance.
Messrs. E. w. Banks and P. L..
Abram have gone over their goals
of production for the Executive
Committee. Messrs. W. H. Turner
Sturgeon Campbell, Dorsey Griffin
w. K. Thames, Dampier Thornton
Clarence Evans, and Oscar Wolfe
show the way for the Division
workers. Not far behind them in
production are: Messrs. James
Rundles and Mamie Lewis.
To make the campaign succeed,
it will take the combined efforts
of all the Executive Committee
men, Division workers and Jack
sons Negro population as a whole.
Negroes must come of age and
accept the responsibilities of our
social and civic life. The YIN CA.
is similar to a baby, in that it
must be mothered. There must be
a deep feeling of cooperation and
acceptance of responsibility. The
larger the membership constituent
cy, the smaller the responsibility.
If we are to have our social a
gencies, we must share in the up
upkeep of them. We must be will
ing to sacrifice, to give until it
hurts.

RAPER STRESSES
GROWING
IMPORTANCE OF
CO-OPS IN
ADDRESS BEFORE
$500 COLORED
FARMERS

The growing Importance of co
operatives to small farmers wa.
emphasized by DIR. Arthur Raper
social science analyst of the us
Department of Agriculture, in ar
address recently before a record
audience of $500 Virginia colored
farm people in their annual farm
ers' conference at Virginia State
College, Petersburg, Va.
Other speakers on the one-day
conference program were: DR.. L.
H. Foster president of the col
lege, L. B. Deitrick, State Exten-
sion Service director, John W.
Mitchell, Eextension Service field
agent, Miss Janet L. Cameron,
State food and nutrition specialist,
and three farmers-Lee Winston,
Otis Scott, and Lloyd Forest. DR..
John L. Lockett, director of the
division of the college and Rass
w. Newsome, State agent of Elk
tension Service presided.
DR., Raper, who is author of
preface to Peasantry" and "Ten-
ants of te Almighty" pointed out
in his address that only through
cooperatives could most small
farmers afford heavy farm ma
chinery such as tractors and COM
bines. This means, he said, that if
small farmers plan to compete
with large operators, they cannot
afford not to cooperate.
''If you can learn to get along
with your neighbors in a coop,
perhaps you can learn to under
stand a farmer who lives in the
adjourning county, or the next
State, or halfway around the
world" the social scientist declar-
ed.
Turning to some of the overall
problems of farmers, Raper raised
seven questions: (l Are you utili-
zing science and common sense?
Neither will work without the
other, he said. (2) Have you realiz
ed that your land isn't yours to
abuse? The soil does not belong to
you; we are all tenants of the AL
nightly, Raper warned.
60 Are you improving your
home? How does your house look
to other FOLKS when they drive up
Is your home the kind of place
that your daughter likes to bring
her beaux? (4) Are you creating
the kind of life on the farm for
your children that will make them
want to stay there and build on to
what you have started
90 Are you and your family
eating the right kind of food? co.
Can't you and your neighbors get
together and form a coop to do
the things that none of you can do
singly? CD Are you helping to see
to it that you have good schools
and good churches in your COM
munity? "The future of your farm
depends upon how you answer
these questions" Raper asserted.

FIGHT FOR STATE RIGHTS AGAINST
CIVIL RIGHTS PROGRAM NOT AIMED
AT NEGRO GOVERNOR SAYS
Negroes See Segregation Issue Only AS
Condition Affecting Nation In Its
Relations With World PEOPLES

JACKSON. Miss. May 10 A
growing exodus from the state
and widespread apprehension
among Mississippi Negroes was
seen as the result of the speech of
Governor Fielding Wright to the
Negro citizens of the otate made
over a statewide radio lookup
Sunday morning and the meeting
of the States Rights Democrats
held in the city auditorium here
Monday.
The speech of Governor Wright
made as a prelude to the Monday
convention was to explain to the
Negroes of the state the stand of
the white people on the estates
Rights ISSUE" and the opposition
to the Civil Rights program re-
Gently presented to Congress by
President Truman.
Holding that the fight for
estate Rights" and against the
Civil Rights program was not
fight against the Negro citizens
of the State, the governor pointed
out that he was the governor of
all the people of the state, and
after reviewing the conditions af-
fecting Negro education, health
and opportunity asserted that he
would keep on working for i'm
proving for the Negroes of the
tSate.
Summing up his advice, his ex-
PLANTATION of States Rights and OPP
position to the Presidents Civil
Rights program by stating that no
such laws could be enforced in
Mississippi and advising all Ne
groes who were dissatisfied that
they would be better off by moving
to some other state.
The deep effect of the Cover
ror's speech, especially some of
its undisguished implications,
upon the Negro community can
best be seen in the fact that IN
practically every Negro Church in
the city Sunday morning the min
lister took time to comment upoH
the governors speech and what 1T
meant to the future of the Negro
as a citizen of the state and in
terms of christianity. Similar re-
ports were received here from
many sections.
The Exodus of Negoes from the
state was seen as coming in the
laboring class and younger group,
whose attachments in the state are
less binding than among other
groups, as aresult of Illustration
and bewilderment growing out of
the states rights and civil rights
issues, and to keep from getting
into trouble, which they see as
coming from many directions, and
is thing which carrys the deep
est meaning for Mississippi and
Southern Negroes.
Negroes comment generally on
the Governors speech and the
speeches broadcasted from the
States Right convention here Nom
day was that Negroes are not in
terested in social equality and So
cial itermingling and that the only
thing that Negroes in Mississippi
are interested in is equal protection
and equality under the law.
In general Negroes comments
placed segregation as the concern
of the nation itself and saw it not
as it relates to the Negro as a race
but as it relates to the nation
itself in the contest between do
mocracy and communism in win
ming the support of people of the
world.

which brought delegates here froa
