Answer To A
Child's Question

Every day Duke University Hos
pital, at Durham, in North Carroll
ma, is filled with all kinds of peo-
pie, come from a whole state to its
wards and its clinics. It is a part
not only of the monument to a
man but Of the hope of a people.
And there are those who say
that the whole thing grew from
the pathetic question a child put
to a man of wealth and power.
James Buchanan Duke, who had
made a tobacco fortune, was NOV
ing into water power. His private
car rolled onto sidings near drab
little towns by potential power
sites. Duke looked in dress and
girth like the conventional por-
trait of a millionaire. The deferen-
tial attentions paid him by his sec
retaries and engineers made the
portrait complete.
The little people in the little
towns looked at him with awe. And
one who looked was a small boy.
He followed him around, listened
to Dukes questions, his orders, his
decisions. And finally the boy put
himself squarely in front of the
great man and asked his own great
question.
Mister" he asked, "can you cure
fits?"
The secretaries and engineers
laughed. But Duke was irritated
with them and was interested in
the child. The boy had asked the
man who had the money to harness
rivers something like the same
question which long ago tested the
powers of King Canute.
Duke questioned the boy. 1t
turned out that the child's father
was subject, to fits. That meant
tragedy and poverty in his large
family. They say that there and
then Duke gave orders that atten-
ton be given to the boys father.
They also say that he went off in
his car, not satisfied.
The child's question is a part of
the hospital. There ade always
limits to power. But a child or a
millionaire can both seek to the
limit of their powers. The Duke
Hospital is a monument to their
seeking together.-This Weeks
Magazine.

race and should be looked upon and
treated as such.
ParSimonious Leadership, Exhib-
it 1.
There was a time, when Negroes
were settled in certain parts of In
dian Territory, (now called, Okla
homa) with a view that he possess
ed brains enough to work out his
own salvation. He cultivated a few
acres of cotton, corn and water
melons. He spent much valuable
time, building churches, planning
camp meetings sitting on the
fence playing banjo, quaffing
'slo-gin' and chasing harlots. Just
below the roots of his poorly culti-
waited cotton, were billions of dol
lars worth of 'black gold (crude
oil and it's by-products). This gives
strong evidence that the Negro, is
a dangerous degree, is shallow and
by nature, superficial at heart. He
is concerned only, with the appar-
ent or that which is in view and
never dreams of an exploration be-
low the surface. Because of this,
we are called, and rightly SO, a
backward people. A people, group
or race, sinks no lower or scars no
higher than it's leaders. If this be
true and it is, the American Ne
gro, may as well admit, that his
past and present humiliating and
very unfavorable standings among
human families of this world, may
be laid, factually and culpably, up
on the threshold of those who are
and have been masquerading under
the false auspices of race leaders.

A NEW, MORE VIGOROUS, CON-
STRUCTIVE AND PRODIGI-
GUS LEADERSHIP.
Editor.)

Continued from Last Week.)
The Negro under past and exist
ing leadership, shows little or no
ambition for cultural productivity,
substantial and worthy adventures,
an industrial economic improve
ment, or to become a living and an
essential part of rapidly chang
ing world. Past and existing condi-
tions keeps the Negro, groveling in
the plebian quagmire of human sy-
cophancy and they seem to love it.
AS a student at Addison Hi,' Roa-
noke, Virginia.; an axiom, given in
two words "Aim High" was placed
high and conspicuously, above the
blackboard of the advanced class.
I didn't grasp the meaning of these
two words until I left the United
States. With a New, more vigor-
Gus, constructive and prodigious
leadership; the race would gain m
spiration to Aim High, hereby, ele-
waiting self and posterity, in rank,
dignity, wealth, power and charac-
ter. He (Negro) would be encour-
aged to promote, at his own initia-
tive; essential productivities, indus
trial projects, and worthwhile COM
mercial possibilities. A Negro indi-
vidual or a group of individuals,
who directly or indirectly; by ac-
ton being or state, impede or srow
down the pendulum of time en-
couraging the elevation of the pow
erty stricken disgraceful level of
the American Negro; are danger

It Was Amazing-the birthday
party of Miss Alexandria dexD
Marie Anthony and Mrs. Eddie
James Johnson, Phoenix socialites.
I have never beheld anything its
equal.
The new home of the AMVET
Post No. IA was the setting for this
social event. Everyone of the up
per society strata was present: Mr..
and Mrs. Burleigh Rideau, Mr.. and
Mrs. John A. Ward, Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur Rosser, and others; Misses
Hazel and, Dorothy Williams, Mo-
zell and Evelyn Mack, Juanita Fa-
vors, Lilly M. Rideau, Bobby Lewis
and others; Arthur Dibrell, Oscar
Clark, Leon A. Cherry, Matt Ven
cradle, Curtis Gray and others.
A short picture, Boogie Woogie
Dream, starring Lena Horne was
shown to the group by Mr.. Arthur
Rosser. A table was covered with
dainty hers d'ceuvres, which only
a feast in the meade halls of Arth-
urian legends could compare with.
The new AMVET club with its
modern beauty and unlimited
space, will be a favorable mite spot
with Phoenicians. Mr.. Johnson has
gone to great pains in acquiring
facilities to offer Phoenix Amvets
the very best for an environment
of this type.
Two of our former students have
become tied together with the
bonds of matricony. Secretly, they
married July 5, 1948 in Flagstaff,
Arizona. Formal announcement OF
the wedding was made this week.
In behalf of the many friends they
have on our campus, I wish to ex-
tend our heartiest congratulations
to Mr.. and Mrs. Burleigh Rideau.
Another of Our Group became
engaged last week; one which we
have anticipated for sometime. Joe
Batiste and Othella Edwards have
announced their engagement. And
still another, Hazel Williams, is

a late spring. I wonder who will be
next.
One of Our Greater Citizens is
leaving Phoenix and the Valley of
the Sun to concentrate his talents
and efforts in another community.
Our loss will be New Orleans gain.
Mr.. Westbrook Mcpherson has
been our Urban League Executive
Secretary for the past year and 1
feel very safe in commenting that
his performance in that office has
been superb. Mr.. Mcpherson is a
member of the Phoenix Alumni
Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fra
ternity.
What worries me is why our
Urban League can not keep some
one on the job for more than
year. I believe the Urban League
would do better if it were in Tue
son. It's roots have become affixed
to eroded soil in Phoenix, and in
stead of growing to maturity it is
wiltering away and slowly dying.
But why? I think the reason is
evident enough.
Another Week and Another
Month has passed. 1948 will soon
bow out to 1949. What have you
done for yourself, your community,
or your friends this year? Think
about it. It may give you reasons
to perceive New Years resolutions
and make 40 even better.
