After The Supreme Court Decision !.
Then What?-

Recently we have listened attentively to
many versions of future reactions If the Uni
ted States Supreme Court deals death blow
TO segregation when it hands down its deei-
sion on the school cases that are awaiting a
decision. There are many of the upper braek-
ct" Negroes who have adopted the psychology
of the white man, that separate, but equal
would be the logical decision of the High
Court And yet the upper bracket" Negroes
theory doesn't have too much weight with
the average every day Negro, for he wants
the High Court to rid the school system OF
segregation now
MANY arguments have been advanced by
the Negro that decision by the Court out
having segregation would be ruinaton to
the Negro, and would destroy all the gains
that have been made during the past few
years. Negroes even say that there Will be
many teachers out of jobs If segregation in
education Is abolished They even say, that If
the white man Is given more time the schools
will be equalized.
The above arguments in favor of con.
tinuation of the separate, but equal prae-
tees that dixie has instituted into a law, and
then made a farce of, would sound natural
as well as familiar, coming from white people.
And they would be logical for the white man
knows that without a law making him feel
superior, he would be just another individual
who would have to lift himself up by his own
boot straps. But, when one hears upper
bracket" Negroes trying to hold onto segre-
cation, one can we'll understand that they are
modified fools, or modified liars, afraid of
their limited security
Any Negro with any reasoning power at
all, knows that a decision from the United
States Supreme Court continuing the sepa-
rate but equal practices of the white man in
dixie will mean absolutely N 0 T n N G
1t is true that considerable advances have
been made in Negro educational facilities in
the south, but the advances were made not
on the change of heart of the white man.
They were made because the white man was

There's no doubt about it, as the wag
once said, whether you're rich or poor, money
is mighty nice thing to have. Nobody has
ever argued the point. Money is good to have,
particularly when you know what to do with
it,
Over the years, the big industralsts
have been raked over the Goals People have
read their fiscal reports and when they show
ed profits in the millions, they said big bust
ness doesn't care about anybody, and imagine
having all that money stashed away!
Just a little thought viii convince any
body who wants to be fair, that industry act
ually hasn't simply grown fat without sharing
its wealth. The fiscal reports show profit, but
what they don't show is the amount of money
that has gone into vast research to improve
goods and materials, to give better service to
the consumer. AS a result of research and
constant testing and improvement for in
stance, automobiles are safer than ever be-
fore, buildings are constructed with as near
fireproof as it is possible to make them, and
household gadgets in profusion take arudg-

All of this has meant not Only am .m-
provement in goods and services. bur the fn.

that have cut down working hours and given
the working man much more leisure than
ever enjoyed before.
And added 20 this industry hes been gem

institutions. They have built hospitals and

A Small Amount TO Pay For Rights

All over the country, citizens are eagerly
awaiting the decision of the United States
Supreme Court in the five school segregation
cases which it heard nearly five months ago
AS the time for the courts summer adjourn
ment approaches, anxiety becomes greater. It
it hoped that the court will strike death
blow to segregation.
While waiting for the momentous deci-
sion, the NAACP which took the five cases to
the Supreme Court, is fighting for its very
existence.
The NAACP is financed principally thru
memberships the So a year dues which
every Negro interested in his own welfare
is asked to pay. When memberships fall off
or are slow coming in, the very lifeblood of
the NAACP is in jeopardy.
The National Association is in the midst
of its annual membership campaign. Branches
all over the country are struggling to reach
their quotas 1t is a hard job Memberships,
like the much-higher dues to social clubs,
should be paid automatically It would not be
necessary for the NAACP to set up campaign
organizations and teams to beg and plead
with Negroes to Join the NAACP There
should be million Negro people throughout
the country who upon a certain day Of the
year would mail in their 50 membership with

this were done, the NAACP could 20 ahead

brothers safe return.
And her mind skipped to the
great holy day of Rosh Hashonah,
and she remembered writing in

happy New Year. But how could
this be happy New Year for her
when her brother was in some
far off land, and nobody knew
whether he was alive or not!
Then, the moon, which shined
bright outside her window, SEEM
ed to stop and hang there very
still, and all at once voice called
out from far away, Don't worry,
little Hannah, all is we'll"
The next thing Hannah knew
the moon had disappeared, but she
could not forget the voice which
said, Don't worry little Hannah,
all is we'll"
When her mother and father
came home from the synagogue,
Hannah rushed to tell them what
she had heard when for that time
the moon had stood still. And her
parents patted her head, and told
her to go to sleep. But nobody
slept well that night.
In the early hours of the morn
ing when the sun began to rise,
and the last signs of night dis
appeared, everybody in the house
was started by the ringing of the
front door bell. And the next
thing Hannah knew the house
was more cheerful than it had
ever been before, and everybody
was hugging and kissing every
body else. Leo was safe!
And Hannah'S mother and
father had come over to her, and
once again they patted her on the
head. Only this time they smiled
and said "Your prayers were an
swered." And they asked Hannah
and Daniel to come to the syna-
gogue with them. And on that
day, Hannah's first visit to the
synagogue, never had the Sho-
far been blown with so much
meaning, with so much strength

Hannah wasn't out playing with

appetite was gone completely.
In Hannah's house there was
always gaity, but on this day no

happened when that man in the

had brought telegram, and
Hannah had found out that her
