Blasts Part-Time
Negro Politics

CHICAGO CAMP Illinois
Cong. William l.. Dawson decries
the practise of many part-time
Negro politicians who view politics
as a hobby to be played at during
leisure hours in an October Ne
gro Digest article which states:
Il think politics, l live politics,
and | see politics as a scientific,
24-hour-a-day pursuit"
Referred to on Capital Hill as
a politicians politician, Dawson
says: Courtesy and p%oliteness are
still the badges of culture and
beneficial legislation for Negroes
cannot be successfully accomplish
ed simply on a loud-mouth, do
nothing basis.
Don't get mad, get smart!"
is the often repeated by-Word of
Dawson whose friends insist he is
one of Americas ablest and most
outstanding politicians.
"To those who would character
ize a good Negro congressman as
a noisy, flag-waving representa-
tive-at-large for all Negroes" Ne
gro Digest says, Dawson hardly
fits the bill. His methods are less
of the spectacular, publicity at
tractive variety, but more nearly
resemble the quiet, how-to-win-
acknowledgements varie-
ty."
Dawson says:
"Politics today is a business = a
sound business that requires as
much attention as any other kind
Of business. 1t is the biggest busin-
ess in our nation and is the very
life stream of our democracy. It's
not a hobby to be worked on in
leisure hours"

Before Columbus found your shore
My presence in this land was known
And, growing with you, I have

To love you, who could love you

And climbed to glory and to fame.

REPORT OF REP. FRED
Continued from yesterday
to PuertS Rico in the event any
defect undiscovered. We wen in.
formed that the shredder,
when properly operating,
would increase the sucrose ex-.
traction from a ton Of cane by
/ percent. AT the present price
Of raw sugar, this would mean.
a return to the Corporation of
81 per ton Of cane over the pre-
sent return, or a gain of $72,-
600 tons of cane is produced.
II addition to the activities
Of the sugar mill, we inspected
operations in the fields. At pre-
sent, the Corporation has some
2,620 acres IN cane. Sugar ope-
rations by the predecessor
Company had consistently
shown q loss, but had never
theless been carried on chiefly
because Of the employment
provided. Furthermore, losses
on the sugar operation could
be recouped by the rum oper-
alton, but this will will NO
longer be possible since Pub
lie Law 149 prohibits the man
ufacture Of + umor other alco-
, 1950-05-11
70 CONGRESS

$50 ~ w y~a
or SO ago, and average of some
thing more than 10000 tons Of
cane were being produced an
nually by the Company and
the independent small grow
ers, The new Corporation has
employed a technician, Frank
Colon Moret, who is putting
into effect improved methods
of cultivation. These include
the use Of fertilizer, employ
ment Of more modern wedding
methods, using a different
grade of cane, and planting the
cane in closer rows than for
merly. The yield for last year
was about $4,000 tons, but as
q consequence of the expert
ments IN cultivation and also
heesusebecause of increased
rainfall this year, it is estimat-
ed fhet the yield for this year,
as pointed out above, will be-
$4,000 tons. It IS expected that
next years yield may be as
high as $4,000 tons. If the yield
could be increased to 10000
tons, the sugar operation
should, for the first time, be a
profitable one. The manage
ment of the Corporation is
hoping to achieve the 10000
level by increased acreage and
constant improvement and ex-
Fermentation in methods of
sugar cultivation. The Corpo-
ration also plans to instruct
the independent. farmers in.
the more modern cultivation.
methods So that the yield from.
their fields will also be in
creased. Management's deci-
sion on this action is partly de
pendent upon an upward revi-
sion OF the statutory sugar
quota for the Virgin Islands,
which is discussed later in this
repdrt. We were informed by
the management Of the Corpo-
ration that the additional am
ticapted yield from present
holdings could be ground at
the Bethlehem mill with only
q relatively small increase in
expenditure for machinery
