nand was assassinated by an Aus trian student of Serbian sympa- thies and the murder touched off a world war. The Archduke was a big shot in his ward and the name had news value. It made all the headlines. All the history books mention it. It is accepted that the pretext used to start the Great War in Europe was the as sassination of the Archduke Fer dinand.
 Nobody even bothers to mention that the student with Serbian sym pathies was a lad named Gavrilo Princip. He was unknown. He was unimportant, He was evil or mis- guided and he committed a politi- cal murder. But, right or wrong, he had definite ideas about what the community needed and the horrible thing he did about the way he felt was the signal for raising the curtain on Act One of the Worbd War.

BULLETIN newsman~ Allen E. Green, Jr.. drew a fairly interest ing assignment last week.
 He was sent to the Bellevue Square Housing Project, where carry out simple door-to-door in vestigation into what our neighbors there think the community needs.
 Altogether, Green interviewed fifty people, six of whom preferred not to answer the question.
 Six Bellevue Square residents thought the primary need was more and or better jobs.
 They complained about excessive rentals, alleging an over-eagerness to increase the rent scale as against a long drawn-out proceed ure for decreasing same when war ranted.
 Sixteen persons bemoaned inad- equate recreationa1 facilities and placed this first on their list of necessary impro ements.
 A single person attacked the ab- sence of sufficient professional leadership.
 Two were satisfied completely. c'EVeTythlnS around nere pAeaseS me already.")

a whole does not recognize 8 cer-
 tain man as 8 leader, then he is
 not leader. But if a man is SC
 lected as leader of the Negro
 people by group of the most
 prominent white people, he auto
 maticalIy becomes a leader, despite
 whatever feelings the Negro com
 munity may have.
 Today, we are rapidly approach ing 8 period ia our historical de veIopEnent that is almost fearful to behold. Many of us have become educated, or acquired good jobs, or purchased "fine' cars tin Chicago, one sees as many fish-tail CadiI- laos in the Black BeIt'' as along the Gold Coast'').
 This growing contented status has meant one thing. Our class interests, be they intellectual or economic, have begun to dispiace our race consciousness. In short, we have begun to particudarize ourselves. Actually, there is noth- ing wrong with this phenomenOn since as Professor E. Franklin Frazier pointed out, it shows Eve are human" But, at the same time, we must remember that to suffer certain socio-economic and pOliti- cal disabilities in America because of socially imputed physical char acteristics is to be a Negro. And all of the fine homes, good jobs, or nice cars, will not alter the fact that generically we are yet a race of pariahs.
 We still have a long way to go in the achievement of any sembi- ance of true racial equality. At this point I do not advocate that we all "stick together This is inn possible for ml1ltifarious reasons.
 What do advocate is that we re- member where Eve came from as the majority of our people suffer the innumerable social proscrip- tions. Even if we forget that we're Negroes and attempt to think of ourselves instead as Americans, let's not forget the fact that we must help a large portion of 14,- DOG, GOO people who still do not know what it is to enjoy the won derful and widespread benefits of the American way of life.

Two weeks ago, in Chicago,
 attended a dinner in the home 0i
 one of the coslntry's outstanding
 Negro surgeons. The plethora oi
 Negro Iumi11aries present read like
 8 who's who of Negro America. somewhat awed by their presence,
 I remained in an obscure corner
 chatting with the only other young person there, the son of a doctor. In the middle of our conversation, 8 very old woman asked us If she might join us and proceeded to give us an interesting cross-sec- ton of her life. Eighty-seven years old, she spoke of her friendship with Frederick Douglas <@When he saaarried that white woman, | was through with him') and many past Negro leaders. One of the most important things she left with me was this statement: "No matter what you say, the one thing have discovered to be the generic truth these past eighty-odd years is that THE NEGRO'S WORST ENEMY IS THE NEGRO HIM. SELF"
 If the reader like myself seri- oIsly contemplated this putative fact, he would discover more truth than fiction. As the Negro com n1slnity has evolved in cOmplexity and grown in size, we have devel- oped many Negro leaders, pFofes- sionaI and business men. A signih- cant proportion of these people have become what is termed so- "the vested interests" For many of these men have been, in truth, opposed to the removal of segregation barriers, lest their position, now one of prominence, become one of Obscurity in the larger white pattern.
 Many of our most prominent Ne gro leaders and even some of our Negro newspapers have lost the that brought them fame. En many Of our industrial centers, the Negro leaders are categorical Uncle Thomases." This is due to two facts: 1.) A particular person is selected as 8 leader by the white community because of his and nOn-militancy and (2.) The Negro glOries in this new position of prestige. In the case of the first, there is no escaping the truth that if the community as

 The BULLETIN is grateful to the persons who were willing to CO., operate in this survey. It is, how ever, no more than they should have done. The growth and inn provement of the community has to be aided by the people of the com munity.

is missing great bet in not do- ing a feature on the life and death of Gavrilo Princip. There is prob ably a tremendous story there of the importance of little people and of the value of finding way to let the man in the street blow off steam and then harnessing the steam for the public good.
 I suppose you think, one of the guys said, that if some reporter had given Gavrilo a chance to tell the world how he felt and why, the whole history of Europe might have been changed.

Green Good Newsman
 ... He Likes People!

Allen E. Green, newest addition to the Bulletin editorial staff, says he gets great pleasure out of meet ing and working with people"
 This short statement by Allen explains what gives him the basis for developing into a top newspaper man. For if he didn't like meeting people, he could not get the mate rial that makes his features so realistic. Then too the fact that he is major in Psychology at the University of Connecticut has an effect on his meeting and working with people /. in this field his work is people.
 Allen finished high school in North Carolina, and then jouneyed to Hartford to settle down. There was an interruption in his settling process however, when he was called to serve in the Army. He spent some time in Italy and Af- rica with the 366th Infantry and saw combat duty in the North Ap- penine region. After his tour of combat duty, Allen served in the Philippines with the 244th Engin- eers Regiment. All in all, he holds three battle stars fer his tour of duty in the Army.
 Returning to Hartford after the war, Allen became the first and only Negro to work as a Medical Aide at Hartford Hospital This achievement came about as the re- suit of his aggressive spirit in fighting for equal rights for every one.
 During the summer of 1947, Green was water front director at Camp Bennett where he did a won derful job in the camps recrea- tional and social program. The fact that tennis, pinC-pong, and swimming his f-.- sports helped Allen in his camp work.

In fact my Army experience was my first contact and it was that which made me feel I would like to accumulate enough basic knowledge to at least draw sensible conclusions.
 In this press for knowledge II have gained interesting as well as impressions. The latter has come out of certain marked conflicting circumstances.

 But on the other hand I have been trying to make my contribu- ton to this group through organ Rational effort, which means the attending of a great many meet ings. Meetings at which Negroes who are more culturally advanced. Gas assume those are who I see riding in great comfort and dressed WelD, should be in attendance. However, as yet, I have not been able to find these persons.
 I do not know whether these peo- pie that observe on the street are professional persons or not, so could not be criticizing this group. But it is interesting to note that I have rarely met an individual at meeting who was introduced as such.
 What T really want to know, is this an Identification of misplaced interest and effort upon the part of many? Because if that is true, I doubt seriously that any outsider can do anything about such a ser lous problem.

american Legion! G. ID. A. c. BLANKS. AdJutant McKinney-King Post 142, Inc. I will try to tell you briefly how
 the American Legion first origI-
 mated.
 The American Legion is a fight Ing veterans organization. It was formed by fighting men of the American Expedition forces in France in March 1918. The American Legion is char. tered by the Congress of the Unit ed States.
 Since the depression of 1882. when the Legion found jobs for ans, the organization has led the field in securing employment for veterans.
 Membership in the American Le. zion is exclusive. Only those vet. erans holding discharge from ac- tsnal service fin either World War \ or IT are eligible for membership i'm the organization.
 The American Legion has either sponsored or given full support to practically all veterans legislation on both Fedora and State levels.
 Rehabilitation is the theme song of the Legion. Since 1926, ne-ion- ally and in departments and posts, it has spent $6S,0OO, ,0OO in its Child Welfare caring for the children of veterans.
 Since the inception of the Jun- for Baseball program the Legion has provided recreation for more than 6,OOo,o0o boys.
 At this point, wish to state the McKinney-King Post, 142, has sponsored junior baseball team. These fine boys are in charge of Athletic Chairman Arthur Dukes. Jr. They recently played their first official game in East Hartford.
 These boys are a fine lot and brilliant in action, and there's a possibility we may find a Jackie Robinson or Larry Dolby in the making.
 Dukes Doing Fine Job
 COmrade Dukes is doing a tine lob with our boys. He is assisted Dy Comrades Frank HoIIey, Em- mltt l.. Wilkins and Samuel F. GuiIbeau. The public is invited to zee this game. There is no charge.
 Hundreds of thousands of Amer can boys and girls have taken part in the American Legion-spon- sored High School Oratorica1 Con- est, which is an effective citizen- ship program.
 Next week will tell you about 9ne of Our fine young men In the person Of Comrade Charles BivenS and how well he conducted our program for the Mckinney King Post 142 in the OratoricaI Contest his year, also some of the ques- ions asked me when canvassing or new members, and after have inished you can be the judge and iecide for your self whether sfae American Legion is worthy of your or not, and whether 7ou need it or it needs you.
 Our meetings are the second and ourth Wednesday nights each at 2243 Main Street, Hart ord. Conn. So, be seeing you at ,ur June 22nd meeting and in this anne column next week.

CONNECTICUT DIARY

 Unwittingly, we are sure, the powers-that-be behind the NEGRO Community Center have walked to the back of the bus and sat down in a cozy sort of discriminatory atmosphere which is uncalled for by local custom and, we are cer- tain, not appreciated by people of the community who make it a prac- tise to think

nOcent of this tendency. We
 pray we shall always be anx-
 ious to recognize and give
 credit when it is deserved.
 For the record, we are proud
 of and grateful to the people
 of Stamford who made the
 Community Center dream come
 true. Their work and sacrifice
 deserves the highest kind of
 praise.
 But, also for the record, be- cause we are proud of them and since we think they were big peo- pie for having had the vision and energy to add in positive terms to the worth and growth of their community, we think they ought to be big enough to wipe out for ever that unnecessary, undemocra- tic and opprobious jim-crow label which they have plastered right smack across the face of an other wise wonderful project.
