A Greater Award For Ensign
Jesse Brown

Down in Hattesburg this Saturday high ranking
officer of the Naval Air Force will present to the widow
of Ensign Jesse Brown the Distinguished Service Cross
and the Air Medal poshunlous award to her hus-
band who killed in the air fighting Korea last
December
In the incident which marked the death of Ensign
Brown who the first Negro flyer in the American
Navy the efforts of young White Officer to to his
rescue makes the incident saga in the annals of Am
erican inter-racal respect and goodwill
From Hattiesburg this week also, the of fiji
teen Negro Citizens seeking the right to register and
vote reached the United States Supreme Court; the
necessity for such being in full contradiction of
what Ensign Brown gave his life for in the fighting
Korea; with young white officer coming into the Incl
dent the wings of galantry to make it American
saga of nterracial respect and goodwill.
The medals to be presented to the widow of Ensign
Brown in HattieSburg Saturday will be a great symbol
of the national greatness and appreciation for high pa
triotsm and sacrifice but somehow get the feeling
that from where he and understands Ensign Brown
would it far greater award if all the stumbling
blocks in the way Of Negro Citizens exercising their
right to register and vote in Hatesburg and Forest
County removed that further action by the
courts would be ever again necessary.
After all, Ensign Brown not fighting for med
ais, he fighting for democracy that recognizes and
h0nOrs the rights including the right to VOTE of all it's
citizens without regard to race creed color previous
conditions of servitude.

The cemetery officials who have allowed the dis

ST. LOUIS-(INS) - Charges
of racial discrimination were hurl-

some delegates to the American

The charge followed cancellation
of a Negro delegates reservation

Washington last night after he had
been honored as a fellow by the

STRAIGHT
AHEAD"

story is told that Walker White,
upon his return from one of his
trips abroad, found a memoran-
dunn on his desk to call Lester
Granger of the National Urban
League Immediately. 1t is said
calls between the two leaders are
not uncommon, but Walter is said
to have been concerned by the APP
parent urgency of the request and
hastily telephoned the Urban Lea
que Executive. Excitedly, Granger
is reported to have told White that
it looks "as if the race problem
had been solved" and wanted to
know what do we do now?"
1t is doubtful if the story is
true, but it does highlight the
dilemma of many Negroes in high
places WHO face the prospect of
job-hunting when the matter of
segregation and discrimination on
account of race is no longer with
US.
What brings this to mind is a
report out of St. Louis which said
the National Bar Association at
it's convention in the Mount City
rejected a resolution condemning
segregated schools. One report
said there were too many law
school teachers in attendance at
the meetings. AS a matter of fact,
Scovel Richardson, dean of the law
school of Lincoln University mis-
souri) was elected President of the
Association.
The matter of "where do we go
from here" is not a simple one for
the people who are certain to lose
their jobs in truly unsegregated
world. 1t is true that time will take
care of the situation, but mean
while, somebody will be hurt tenn
porarily. One of the reasons for
this is that the same ya-dstick for
measuring ability and qualifica-
tions has not been used in selecting
Negroes as it has for whites. 1t
follows, therefore, that many
Negroes occupying top positions
would not be able to qualify in
open competition. The answer to
this simply is better training and
better equipment. Much is being
done to encourage this by the
NAACP of which Walter White is
head; the National Urban League
of which Lester Granger is head,
and by scores of other individuals
and organizations including the
Negro newspapers and magazines
Oddly enough, many of these in
situations are suffering as a re-
suit of their efforts. 1t is paradox
cal in our society that individuals
or institutions should employ their
skill and funds to put themselves
out of jobs and out of business, but
such is the case of essentially
Negro groups fighting discrimina-
ton and segregation. SO, it could
happen that the Walter White
Lester Granger "what do we do
now" story may yet come true.
When it does, let US hope they will
be able to provide the answer.

FOOTLlCHTS
BY JUNIUS BETHEA

1.-THE Well" is on the reviewing
stand.
For once, the shoe is on the 9TH
er foot in which an innocent white
man is accused of crime which
provokes a race riot. 1t is Leo Pop
kin's social film, "The Well" re-
leased Wednesday by United Ar
fists. And if you are timid, you
better steel yourself against I'M
comfortable emotions and jumpy
nerves, for there is. no time to re-
lax when it begins unfolding all the
vicious tension, distortion, distrust
coiled in sudden violence and COM
passion of a race riot in a little
town, all packed into So minutes
of swift moving drama that is
sometimes irony, other times tear
jerking.
"The Well" is about a pretty
five year-old-Negro girl who falls
into an abandoned well, running
across an open field on her way to
school. Rumors quickly spread that
the child had been seen earlier
that morning with a white man,
the nephew Of prominent builder
and civic personality. These rumors
provoked apprehension among hun
dreds of colored families that the
child had been kidnapped, and they
were afraid the search for the
missing child would not be persued
with diligence since the child was
Negro, and the accuser was a
white man.
Suddenly like a bombshell, iso-
lated acts of violence began break
ing out between whites an
Negroes began beating up each
other, destroying property, setting
fire to property. The Sheriff TAX
en- by this sudden hate among
town of Negroes and whites that
had lived peacefully for twenty
five years, appealed to the Mayor
to ask assistance from the Cover
nor.
Just when the situation terrify-
ing, a little white schoolmate of
the missing child, and his dog dis
covered the books and coat by the
old well, and humanity began to
replace all the vicious jungle in
stincts. AS sudden as emotions
were inflamed, they subsidized, and
thousands stood silently and anx-
iously, watching several huge well
digging machines dig deep in the
earth in an effort to rescue the
child.
All those whites and Negroes
who earlier were keyed to murder
and destruction, were now joined
together in one common effort to
save the life of the little girl
"The Well" is portrayed by a
group of performers who are ex-
perts in the art of acting. Richard
Rober as the Sheriff, Maidie Nor
man and Earnest Anderson, as the
mother and father of the child, are
superb. Henry Morgan and Barry
Kelly, the Builder and nephew, and
Bill Walker, Christine Larson, Tom
Powers, George Hamilton, Dick
Simmons, Wheaton Chambers, all
give memorable portrayals.
Scripters, Russell Rouse, and CO.
director, and Clarence Greene, give
the dilogue a natural blend for the
story. Leo Popkin directed the
film with a pace that leaves not
one dull moment.
"Well" is an epoch in moving
making, and should enlist the at
tention of those who are in charge
of selecting the best movies of the
year.

Negro Country
Club In Conn.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept. "a
-Rasism reared its head here last
week when eight white property
owners protested the presence of
a Negro country club in their

the club, said he planned action to
prevent the clubs expulsion from
a site it has occupied for eight
years.
