Love affairs and marriages between mem
bers of different race never particularly in
terested me. If these love affairs and mar
riages add to the peace and harmony of the
world, am in favor of them. If they detract
from the peace and harmony of the world, |
am against them. 1t is simply matter of get
ting along. Here are two situations that came
TO this writer's attention recently.
In my business activities, | manage sever
al pieces of property in the New York area.
Mixed couples live in some of them. The re-
lationship between these mixed couples and
other tenants of the buildings seems to be
harmonious They seem to be getting along.
1t is only when members of different races
are counting that difficulties arise.
In one well kept building a particularly
meddlesome person kept complaining that
single woman who lives in the building has
white friend who visits her often. 1T will ruin
the reputation of the house if men like that
are seen visiting" she complained. When l in
quired if the visitor was rowdy, noisy of other
wise undesirable the meddlesome one admit
ted he was not.
| finally met this sutton and found him
to be a most interesting, intelligent, and in
formed man. He owned successful business
in downtown New York and was independent
~ wealthy, He was in position to do most of
the things he wanted to do and he knew it.
The lady he visited occasionally was his en-
ployee and had been for many years Both
of them knew what they wanted. They knew
what they were doing Both were able to take
care of themselves. While he is a successful
business man, she is a capable worker and
will be able to make her way anywhere. Both
of these people make contributions toward the
welfare of the other, and both are respectable
members of society. Neither is likely to do

number of Negro voters in the capitol city.
What is more and very important eolored
Baton Rougeans found out during the strike
that they furnished more than 70 percent of
those who ride the buses. That they could
put the bus company out of business if they
organized and used the strength of the r
numbers in fight for their rights citi
zens They, as good Americans, respected the
opinion of the Attorney General but plan to
fight the state law on segregation that vo-
lates their constitutional rights That decision
is commendable and $4,000 is fine nest-egg
as a starter in a long, necessary fight for
first class citizenship. Baton Rougeans have
already filed suit to test the validity of the
city emergency ordinance regulating seating
of bus passengers.
Oldtmers often used these words in their

Here is another case with which I am ia
mlar. A colored girl lives in rooming house.
She is not the best type of person. She drinks
too much, has difficult time in keeping a
job, and appears to be engaging in the oldest
profession. Others in the building complain
about her Caucasian boy friend. I know very
little about him except that he is writer.
However person seen in the company of
prostitute who is drunk most of the time, is
questionable. A person is known by the COM
pany he keeps.

individuals of this ilk will not add to the
equanimity of the universe The two of them

the peace and harmony of the earth.
The only interest your observer has in af

This is a great country. You can complain
about taxes, you can say anything you want
to about any public official and say it out
loud. You may not like the way you're treated
and there may be certain places where peo-
pie can get away with murder but not with
the sanction of the government nor with the
sanction of the majority of the people once
they know the facts.
Negroes know this better than anybody
else. If anyone in American life could have a
reason to be bitter about anything, it would
be the coored brother But he is fercely loval
because this is his country and he knows he
has helped to build it. Some Negroes NAV 90
to live abroad, feeling that they can enjoy
freedom there as they cannot in the United
States, but even so, they do it regretfulIy;
and in spite of any bitterness they may feel,
few, If any would do anything to undermine
its government
It's good that the Negro instinctively
knows that this is fine place to live He
knows it without having been anywhere else.
It's compliment to his good judgment that
he has not had to suffer elsewhere to learn
that the USA offers the best possible oppor-
tunity for all, even if he does have to fight
for his.
They say that in order to appreciate an
OIL painting one must stand off bit and get
a good angls on it. When one is up too close
the picture isn't too clear Therefore. anyone
who doesn't quite appreciate it, might take
little iaunt elsewhere and come back and
look at this country from little different
angle. There must be something in this idea.
because some Of the most loyal Americans
we know are those who are brand new Ameri-
cans and because they understand how n7iser-
able life can be they appreciate America all

The white bus drivers strike in East Bat

created is, to some extent, approaching norm

35, 900 colored citizens organized and fought
constructivey and wisely, They We're fighting
for their rights under the local law Their
voices were heard and their counsel sought by
the powers that be.
The issue grew out of a strike of white
bus drivers May Is concerning seating ordi-
nance passed by the City Council March II,
directing that whites load from the front Ne
groes from the rear, but no provision was
made for reservation of seats. Bus drivers
claimed that the city ordinance contravened
the state law regulating segregation on pub
lie conveyanceS. Attorney General Fred j. Le-

flicted with the state segregation laws re-
