she had hacked her grandmother to death with
a meat AK, she would have been Identified as
Negro in no uncertain terms. Be that as it
may, it remained for a Negro newspaper to UNI
cover the fact that the child was of African de-
scent Whereupon the daily newspapers suDSe-
quently identified her as such.
Of course, this has been going on long
time Many Negroes who have contributed
great deal to science, literature, and the arts
have lost their identity because, once they
achieved the heights their white contempt
rares actually thought they were doing them
favor by forgetting" their ancestry. 1t APP
parently never occurred to them that this was
an insult perhaps it did occur to them
because failing to identify distinguished citi-
zens as Negroes has helped to preserve the
myth of white supremacy and has given the
Negro little inspiration in his struggle to a.
chieve full citizenship,
There has long been a discussion as to
whether or not radio and teevision would ever
replace newspapers. 1t seems TO have been
conclusively proved, however, that whatever
the value of the spoken word and on-the-spot
coverage, there is no substitute for black and
white permanent record of events as they oc-
cur Newspapers fill in details and summarize.
thus helping the reader better to formulate
opinions.
Among Negro newspapers, they must add
still another footnote to events as they occur.
We know that what is good for America IS
good for the Negroes; but we also know that
what is good for Negroes is good for America;
and in seeking to build up our prestige and
self-esteern, we are helping to build a better
country.

those ships, but have insisted thus far that the
sale of the ships be negotiated apart from the
settlement OF lend lease. The State depart
ment wants it the other way round.
Russia, under Stain, always tried to ne
gotiate a huge loan when the time came for
her to pay an old debt. In 1884, for instance,
when settlement of a S19O.OOOO 600 debt of the
Kerensky regime to the United States govern
ment was on the verge of being arranged, a
Russian prefer of S1OOO00000 was based on
getting a twenty year loan for twice that
amount as we'll as a like amount Of commercial
credit from the Export Import bank When
both offers were rejected negotiations col
lapsed The Russian offer was about the same
as a man offering to pay you one half of what
he owes you if you will lend him four times as
much as he pays you on the loan.
If I were bitterly opposed to the way of
life of an individual, would try very hard not
to he indebted to that individual n Russia
and Stain were bitterly against our way NJ
Hfp they should have arranged their lives so
they would not have needed the benefits Of our
way of life 10 is the height of childishness and
immaturity to pretend to oppose The very
thing upon which one must depend for well-be-
ing and survival
II isn't easy 10 properly evaluatp the life
Of an individual However. I feel safe to say
that if everyone paid his obligations as Pre-
mier Stain paid his there would be no credit

Since 95 percent Of the business transact
ed is done bv credit we could nor enjoy the
standard of living we now enjoy if the world
operated ala Stain

DISC RIMINATION NOT
CONFINED TO
ONE GROUP

That discrimination is an evil
cannot be denied in many cases.
In some instances it is general
among individuals Of the same
group. 1t IS practiced in some
families among the children. Par
ents think more of one child than
they do Of others IN our churches
there are groups that have but
little to do with those in another
group. Among the wealthy Of diff
ferent countries, states and small
er divisions there is discrimina-
ton shown
Discrimination is defined as to
treat unfairly by our dictiona-
ries and we can see and hear of
its use every day in the year a.
mong families and among differ
ent groups and among nations Of
the earth.
1t is caused by a superiority
complex and that derives from
trivial things and conditions in
people and groups The very
wealthy people have little con-
sideration for the people of mod
crate means. The individuals VINO
work in offices have but little
care for one that works digging
bitches or at other manual labor
The ones whose hands are never
blistered by hard toll feel a de-
gree or so above those whose
hands are soiled and hardened by
hard labor The most reprehensi-
BILE discrimination is that born of
color among people Of different
racial groups that prevails among
groups of the same race. You do
not have to seek very far to find
it daily and hourly among them.
Our group in this country has
practiced the same thing we con-
denim so bitterly in others. To
treat anyone unfairly Just because
they differ from us physically or

Last week, John p OConnell, commander
of the New York district, Veterans of Foreign
Wars, issued proclamation to the 600 posts
under his command urging members to read
their newspapers The campaign, he said, was
an enlightened public approach to the mo-
mentous decisions we now face
TOO many veterans and others, he said
"are carelessly relying on television and ra-
tiio IieWscasts to enable them to make decisions
now required of all citizens. This leads to
apathy in important events and ultimately to
corruption and acknowledgment"
If it is necessary to bring this sort of
campaign to the attention of any group in
America, it needs to be brought to the atten-
ton of our Negro citizenry Only we have
two fold job to do We must read the daily
papers to keep up with the fast moving
events of the world. But it's equally important
that we keep up with the events of the Negro
world" too The reason for this is simple
no where else can we get picture of what
our people are doing and how we'll they are
doing it, and no where else can we get the
inspiration that comes from hearing about out
accomplishments True we get little more of it
in the daily newspaper than we used to, but
most often we must uncover our own deeds.
A few years ago, one of the New York
Sunday newspapers carried full page story
with artist sketches mot photography of
little ten year old girl who was attending
a midwestem university. She was a genius and
she had been paraded before an array Of psy-
biologists and educators to see what made her
tick She was described as pretty active,
wholesome little genius. The articles failed to
say, however, that she was a Negro. Of course,
New York papers had long since agreed not
to mention the race of individuals in their col

Stains Credit Rating Bad
By lauren White

1t is impossible to get the full significance
of an individuals life while he is living. It Is
also impossible to get the full significance OF
a life Immediately after death. However, the
death ruler of d great nation calls for rctlea-
ton and evaluation.
One can get some estimate Of an individ-
ual or a nation by the way they fulfill their
obligations The Republic of Finland has en-
deared itself to all Americans by paying its
obligations We respect those who pay their
debts We abhor those who refuse to pay debts
and then try to destroy those to whom they
are indebted. Russia under Stain uied to do
just that
Under the Czarist and Kerensky regimes
the Soviet incurred a S4500 600 900 foreign
debt The Russian government borrowed the
money in good faith. Stain, who was the die
tator of Russia didn't reduce the debt one
dime in the thirty years he was in power. His
regime inherited the debts and they were ohli-
gated to settle them.
Besides the defaulted debt TO private Cit
liens and investing institutions of nations.
there is the special lend lease Of World War
II. The Russian government owes the United
States S11, $50, $4,000 for lend lease material.
The Truman administration was willing to set
tie for $500 600 600 or less than cents on the
dollar
After five years Of repeated negotiations
last year, Russia offered to settle for S3Olool-
600 and rebuked our State department for not
moving at once to split the difference
The Russians, moreover are still holding
$40 ships lent them during the war by the
United States. They would like to buy 1877 Of

built for sale prospective home-owners has helped
Negroes very except indirectly Far few lending agen
ces such banks insurance companies would lend to
builders building homes for Negroes And where they have
done they have SHE'D from lending homes quit
in projects open purchase the terms by
Negroes whites Consequently Negroes not only have
gotten comparatively few homes through the VA and FILA
guaranteed mortgage program but nearly they
been able do only segregated home building pro-
ects, in northern states
The federal lowrent housing program presents different
picture Negroes concerned The
dwelling built under this program that occupied
by Negroes good deal higher taking the country
whole than the proportion that Negroes bear to the general
population This just and fair recognition Of the fact that
their need for decent housing greater and their opportunities
get it from private landlords And many such pro-
ects the northern and ntegraed pro-
ects although the federal government has, unfortunately been
willing finance segregated projects where the local housing
authorities wanted it that way
1t is particularly disturbing, therefore that President Essen
hOwer appontee Mr. Cole who will administer the public hous
ing program strong and determined opponent of public
housing ground lead to Socialism He
against public housing every opportunity He asserted
speech in the house January D. 1919 when the housing
program being debated ut he public housing program
tends destroy government very interesting thing
that 1928 before either the Republicans
thought about it, the Communist party included public housing
program Thus he attempted that public
housing will lead to Communism and in fact Communistic
Mr. Cole eaCionary housing and issues that
he of the very few Republican congressman
defeated by Democrat in the election despite
enhower
Appointing such Mr. Cole be head the gov
enments housing program like appointing L. Lewis
to be head OF Wage Sterilization bord making Governor
Talmadge Governor ByneS the Civil Liberties sec
ton in the Department of Justice It clear that President
Eisenhower intends scutte our public housing
program or else he is incredibly ignorant of his apponee
