Free Press Killed
B~ureaucrats:"
Magazine States

arrogant .bureaucrats on local
and national levels are killing A
merica's free press and the right
Of the people to be kept informed
of the activities of elected and
appointed officials. So says Allen
Raymond, former chief of the New
York Herald Tribune Tokyo Blu
reau, in a revealing article entitl-
ed "News the People Can't Get"
in the forthcoming issue of RE-
PORTER Magazine.
Raymond lists four major
methods by which a conspiracy of
secrecy is violating the public's'
right to information. They r the
spreading practice Of holding
legislative, court and board meet
ings in secret; the increasing
control of government information
through the use of press releases
supplemented by gag rules on IN
derlings, and the, outright refusal
Of bureaucrats to answer quest
ions of public concern; the seal
ing or impounding of official e
cords as we'll as the failure to
keep any; and the extension of mi
litary security into fields having
little or no bearing upon the
nations safety, sometimes in
volving outright violations of con-
stitutional civil liberties"

supported or not, these instituz
tions ARE serving a useful pur-
pose. While it must be. admitted
that many whites contribute heavi
ly to the support of. all these or
CARNATIONS, it would be mighty
refreshing to witness some tang
BILE expression of gratitude from
the people these organizations
have served. Although Negroes
and Negro organizations fought.
for years to break down the jim
Crow barriers in boxing and in
organized baseball, very few Ne
groes have profited as a result.
Now that Negroes I on big
time in both boxing and baseball,
whenever there is a dollar to be
made as promoters, writing books,
articles or.anything else, the Ne
gro is left out in the cold.
III go along with the Cancer
Fund, because I believe it to be
one Of the worthiest charities there

somebody promote one off the

Of the organizations fighting seq

Will OllC dIlOCIlCI.
One wonders whether the lid
will be off now that the chief is
dead. What brings this to mind,
although it might not be concrete,
is a column written last week by
columnist Wendell Smith, Hearst
writer who doubles as columnlst
for a weekly newspaper, or vice
versa. Smith mildly jumped OF
Dan Parker and Walter WlIpchell,
Hearst men who have in the works
an exhibition base all game be-
tween Negro and white stars Of
major leagues for the benefit of
the Damon Runyan Cancer Fund.
SMITH OBJECTS. He sees the
project as a throwback to the pre-
Jackie Robinson Gays in the ma
jors, and believes the past ought
to be allowed to lie buried. He
brands the idea as one ri scgre-
cation and he doesn't like it.
Smith,, / believe, is a little too
sensitive. He seems to be carving
HI. position rather thin When he
stresses the point that the game
would be unequal because thele
would be only IA Negroes in the
majors from which to choose,
while the white stars could be
drawn from 380-odd players. In
the first place, I wouldn't regard
the game as an actual test of skill
no super world series. At best it
would be just a novel stunt t.
raise money.
However, taken man for man,
the IA Negroes cou.' put nine
lei on the field that would rank
fovorably with any ni~e whites
VINO could be called from the re-
naming players of the major
leagues. Furthermore, Il would be
a break for the Negro players in
the minors to be given a chance
to be seen in Yankee Stadium
against top flight opposition. If
there are IA Negroes in The nEa-
lols, 13 could be broug It up from
the minors to provide a 25-piay..r
team. The two extra players would
provide for a manager-coach and
a coach. And, incidentally, ii
would be a good opportunity for
Jackie Robinson to show his man
agerial skill. Wouldn't Durocher
love that? Roy Campanella could
also serve as coach.

IS 'IiMM Now That
MefHeMsf Is Dead?
By JULIUS j. ADAMS
For GlobaI News Service

It has been reported that Walter Winchell doesn't
like Westbrook Pegler and that the feeling is mutual
with Peg, but that they would never engage in fuses via
their respective columns. The answer to that, the report
further says, is that William Randolph Hearst, the Chief,
frowned upon members of the Hearst family taking issue
with one another.

lation's most militant weehlies, I
have worked tirelesslY against all

repation. However, [ believe Ne
groes have got to mature some
time, and quit being SO squeamish,
We are winning the battle against
segregation and We'll keep on
fighting. But I can't see the pro
posed game as a drawback. Are
we ashamed of being Negroes?
The proposal causes me much
more thought than the simple
question of segregation. We can
recall ~post-season games between
major leaguers and teams made up
of players from the Negro leagu-
ers. These were attractions which
produced a little extra cash for
the players and the promoters. To
say the least, the Parker-Win-
chell idea is novel and should pack
Yankee Stadium.
THE SEGREGATION angle
doesn't worry me SO much, but
frankly, | am sorry it has not
been possible to "scare up" a
game of this sort or some other
major promotion for the support
of an organization like the MAC
P in its fight against discrimina-

Urban League in it's fight for
better jobs for Negroes. Like

Vicorp Mill Manager Gives
Statement on Labor Status

job, only 3O8 men would be
required.
Since the labor shortage in this
island is such that we are COM
PEELED by circumstances to bring
in 200 laborers to be able to carry
out our harvesting and cultivation
schedules properly, it seems rea-
sonable that Management should
try to employ its labor force in the
most efficient way possible, espe-
cially when this course affords
the laborers the opportunity to OBJ
tain the highest wages proportion
ate to their effort, to reduce the
number Of laborers to be imported
to a minimum. The importation of
labor is one thing that Manage
ment does reluctantly and by
sheer necessity as in it are involv-
ed problems, such as transporta-
ton, providing housing facilities,
sanitary and social adaptations all
of which tends to burden the work
of Management.
From our estimates of income
and expenses for the present crop,
there is a forecast loss of sec, 900.
90 based on the present wage
scales which offer ample oppor-
tunity to our workers earning
stable wages which are above the
minimum.
Management does not feel justi-
fled in raising the present wage
rates to increase the probable loss
that we are contemplating at
present.
We should, undoubtedly, hurt
the future operations of this Cor
poration. .

ready to start grinding operations.
Considerable layouts of money
have had to be made to brong the
factory to a balanced level which
will give a smoother and more eff
ficient operation.
From the preliminary analyses
made in the laboratory the cane
fields show a high sucrose con-
tent, forecasting a high sugar
yield. So everything is ready to
start the crop.
We have not started, however,
due to some labor unrest created
by uniformed propaganda con-
corning st. Croix conditions origi-
mating in sources outside of this
island. Labor problems in an ever
populated area r entirely diff
ferent from labor problems in I'M
derpopulated areas. 1t is self-evi-
dent that in the first case there is
abundance of labor and in the Sc
cond there is scarcity. This is the
St. Croix case. We have not
enough laborers to do the work re-
CURED for harvesting and Guilt
waiting operations.
With these facts in mind and in
formation from our office records,
in the following paragraphs, we
discuss our wage rates and the
possibilities they offer our labor
ers to obtain substantial wages.
The Management of the Virgin
Islands Corporation is confronted
with the following problem:
It has to harvest from its own
fields one thousand tons of cane
daily. This operation a be ac-
complished in two ways. 1t can be
done by day work or by job.
From our records of last year,
we find that average tonnage of
cane cut by one man on the daily
wage basis was 1873 tons. The
average tonnage of cane cut by
one man working on the job basis
was 3.25 tons. The wage by day
was $40, so the cost to the Cor
poration per ton cut by day was
$1.72 per ton. The rate of pay by
job was $1.10 per ton. The average
wage by job was 1886. This proves
that the Corporation gave the OPP
portunity to its cane cutters to
arm wages which were $1.16 high
er than the minimum of $2.40 or
1870 above the minimum wage.
What was for the cane cutters was
true for the cane leaders and is
true for the workers that want to
work on the job basis in cultiva-
ton operations.
Another angle of this problem
is that to cut one thousand tons of
cane daily: By dav would require
1000 1873 or 725 mon BY Job
would require 1000 3.25 or 308
men. Difference AIT men.

A Fight Tomorrow

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. Coach
Eddie Erdelatz believes he has
ironed the rough spots out of
Nays football attack and the
Middies are ready to give favored
Princeton a real game at Thomp-
son Stadium tomorrow. Kickoff
time is 2 pm.
The Tigers are a one-touch-
down choice to win their 18th

Middies, 20-14. last year as part
of a nine-game undefeated and
united season. Navy won the
1949 game, 28-7.
This will be the first game at
Annapolis in two years, and a ca
pacity crowd of $4,000 is expected.
The last game at Annapolis, Incl
dentally, was that 1949 game with
Princeton.
Because this is Navy's home
coming game. and because of the
large number of Princeton alumni
and supporters in the area, Naval
Academy officials expect heavy
traffic on the roads to Annapolis
They suggest that persons in the
Washington area attending the
game leave not later than 10 am
to avoid traffic jams.

the trip by boat from Baltimore
with the S. S. COLCHESTER leaving
Baltimore's Pier S on Pratt street

next to the stadium in Annapolis
and will leave 80 minutes after
the game.
Erdelatz may use Quarterback
Bob zaStrow as his punter tomor-
row. One other change may put
Ira Kane in the" Navy offensive
lineup instead of Frank Brady at
right halfback. Kane generally
is the defensive safety man. but

person close to the Indians ad-
Imitted that the Indians had made
Iovertures for Williams, but said
the Tribe had been turned down
by Yawkey.
"I'll consider trading everybody
on my ball club except Williams,
Yawkey was reported to have said.
The informant refused to con-
firm whether Dolby was the bait
offered to the Red Sox, but ad-

Williams batted .318 and was

ting average is some Is points
above his 1851 mark.
Back to the managerial front
it was learned that st. Loui:
