Shareholder, in steel and all other

But if the unions don't have
enough power already to force the
government to make you pay, the gov

That makes it easier for a union Of
ficial to throw his weight around.
That makes it easier, Mr.. Shareown-
er, to take your money That gives
the union officials still greater income
and still greater political power over
the President of the United States
and other government officials.
Do you want to do something about
it? If you do-and you cerninly

MIR. Shareholder, You
Are Licked-If You
Don't Fight Back!
by Sumner Gerard

Government officials are hrying,
again, to take more of your income
and savings-to give to somebody
else, at the same time undermining
all citizens constitutional liberty.
What are you going to do about it
You are shareholder in one or
more corporations. You are almost
certainly among the 80 million own
ers of u. S. Government bonds, the
78 million holders of insurance poll
cics, the 70 million with savings bank
and other deposits, or among the mil
lions who receive or expect to receive
government or private pensions. You
may have other savings as well.
You have already seen your savings
melt away under government managed
and government promoted initiation.
You have seen government follow
consistent policy-through initiation
and taXation-of cheapening and re-
distributing your savings to others.
Now, in the steel fight, they're out
to take your income from savings as
well.
Union leaders are hungry for
power-and politicians need votes. The
way to get votes-or so the Admins
tration seems to think is to satisfy,
at any cost, the ever mounting APP
petiteS of dominant union officials
for economically unwarranted but
politically savory wage increases. The
next logical step is to disguise and
delay the fact that it is the public
which ultimately pays for higher pro-
duction costs, by making the people
who save and invest $3.50 900 for each
worker in latest, modern steel plants)
take the first shock of the enormously
increased cost of making goods.
It's a simple pattern. First the Wage
Sterilization Board recommends a
wage increase of 26 to 30 cents an
hour-with the so-callcd public"
members hardly able to conceal their
union label underneath. The union
then announces in effect policy of
whole hog or strike" The President

1t is felt that the outdated idea OF the
educational leaders would result In the with
holding Of the whole truth from a portion
of tomorrow's citizens. II is from these par
ticular ills of yesteryear, in concealing the
truth, that we are suffering. We are mrs

be faced with the fact that the frozen minds
are always at the head of the table. You

Who Shall Be Fired?-

Who Shall be fired?
Or maybe we should ask, who should be
fired?n
Or perhaps it would be better as ask, who
can be fired?"
For, in forty years Of public life we
have never seen professional worker fired
for inefficiency-for other reasons, yes; but
never for just plain inability to do his work.
OF course, we are speaking of colored work
ers. Firing is usually used as a method Of
control and patronage rather than improve
ment Of efficiency.
Get him fired Is particularly vicious
slogan where the Negro is concerned. AT the
professional and clerical levels it is mainly
a means of making man subservient out
side his job. The average Negro who goes
about his business doing his work well
and depending on his good work to hold him
in his job, may find himself fired at the
dropping Of hat because he did something
off the job that someone with pull did MT
like. A high official once said that II he dis
charged all the Negroes against whom other
Negroes brought charges and accusations,
he would have no Negroes at all left in his
employ. He further stated that none of the
charges were brought on the ground that the
employees were inefficient at their work.
II is always dangerous for a Negro to
have any opinion on anything and express IL
anywhere from house party to a church
meeting. There will always be somebody
present to report to the big house and
twist his statements inside out to show that
he is a dangerous" Negro and not to be
trusted with job. The only Negro who is
safe from firing is the Negro who works
for himself or whose job is not worth hold
ing.
Even the Negro who works for himself
is not entirely safe. Some time ago such a
Negro was warned by one of his good pa
irons that he might withdraw his patronage
because of things he had heard about the
Negro concerned

Know The Truth And The Truth Shall Make You Free
BY EARL

A recent article published in local
aaily makes one mindful of the fact that
there are certain sections where the prac-
tice of true Americanism is lacking. | re-
fer to the recent article on the banning of
the text book. "The Challenge of Democra-
cy", unless the chapter or chapters dealing
with segregation Of races and FEPC were
scratched or revised.
Alabama's top educational leaders a
greed to let the disputed text book be used
provided certain provisions be made. The
article stated that one of the chapters was
headed, Minority groups should have equal
ity with all others in the American way OF
life" Evidently this was too much for the
race conscious educators This is one of the
most backward moves that has ever been
made in America. OF course, It may be a
common practice in another country We feel
that any attempt to conceal the truth from
innocent students is a more serious crime
than presenting them with true facts Slave

nothing and should be appreciated because

Vacation time, which Is automatical-

gain. But unlike most Negro citizens, we
are concerned deeply. Our youngsters have
had their hope shattered and their conf
dence betrayed. They were promised sever
al years ago by Little Rock Negro leaders
that they'd soon have recreational spots in
the city for their enjoyment. Today, those
spots are farther from them than they were
when they were promised. We say farther
we mean just that. Were we to demand rec

"Thru your leaders, we put you where you

What Should People Read?-
BY lauren White

~ eauI eS1 ""'sO
Should loyal patriotic, law abiding A.
mericans read literature that erlticlzes
their government? Should mature individ'
uals investigate, analyze and question the
policies of their government? What rights
and privileges should law-abiding citizens
of democracy have?
These questions were debated with zesf
and vigor by a group in barber shop re-
Gently. Someone had read ''We Charge Geno-
eide" The reader explained that the book
was a petition to the UN by group of
Communists. These Communists charge that
the United States government is practicing
genocide against Negro Americans by deny
ing them employment opportunities, educa-
tional opportunities, the right to vote and
the use of hospital facilities.
The one individual who had actually
read the book contended that 1t was specl-
Gus. He said that it appeared to be an ac-
curate picture of conditions in the United
States. but actually was not. He stated fur
Their. "If colored people in other parts OF
the world should read that scathing indiet-
ment of the United States, they would fly
IN the arms of Russia. That would be
great tragedy for us ALL
Those who opposed that position, felt
that the publication and circulation of the
hook might relieve some of the economic
and political pressure imposed on Negroes
I subsequently read the book, and l did
mt like it. It left me cold and sick. It hurt
me. Although much of the book is specious,
much Of it is true. Here are two very Sig
nificant paragraphs:
1.-THE notorious failure to enforce or
even attempt to enforce the Fifteenth A.
mendment to the Constitution of the U. 5.
Arkansas State press., 1952-06-06

which stipulates that Negro citizens shall
be secure in their right to vote, results and
has resulted in the murder of Negroes on
the basis of race when they attempted to
vote. These murders are not tried under
the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments
of the Civil Rights Act. For genocide or
killing members of the group is the policy
of the Government of the United States no
matter what the circumlocutions used to
conceal it."
"As result of segregation, living in
ghettos and disease breeding houses, of be-
ing barred from the great majority of hos
pitfalls as result of discrimination in en-
ployment which makes for tragically
low income, of violence which prevents trade
union organization, of semi-peonage, OF
sharecropping, of terror which prevents
members of the group from using political
action to better their conditions-United
States Negroes are deprived of nearly
eight years of life as compared with life ex-
pectancy of white Americans"
The authors cite many cases taken
from Negro newspapers to substantiate their
case Copies of the book are being distri-
buted in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
Since we are counting these lands, we
should know what they are being told.All
people who want to see America remain
great world power should read I'VE
Charge Genocide" and judge for themselves
whether or not it tells the truth. Every pub
lie official should have copy. Officials also
should be on their guard to see that none
of their acts coincide with what can be
construed as "genocide" against a race of
people.
