The NAACP versus ReuctiOnuries
and 'sUncIe Toms"
By Randolph l.. White

AS is usually the CASE when the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Coored People takes mill
tant stand in its struggle to win frstclass citizenship
Tor black Americans of sef-styed friends in
the majority resort to almost trick in the book
to the impression to the public that the NAACP
is trOuble-seekng organization bunch of outside
agitators.
Equally as bad is "Uncle Tom" type of race
leaders. This latter gentry, while assuring their
people that they with them in their fight event
ualy enjoy the good things of life taken matter of
course by all other racial groups in America Juas-ike
deny to white people that they ese leaders) share the
opinion OF their more militant brethren. However, be
this it may the overwhelming majority of these weak
kneed leaders for the equality of opportunity
for which the races true leaders striving. But, like
all chselers, the hatinhand" type of Negro is unw
ing from fear of reprsal against him to make the sacr
fices necessary to win the prize
Where the NAACP's success dependent upon the
whims of reactionares in the white and Unce Tom
type Negroes the organization would have folded up
ago. Contrariy, the NAACP because of it's great
support from it's white friends Negroes
not awed at the sacrifices necessary be made in the
struggle for their rghtfu place in the Sum- growing
stronger as the years pass.
The ironical thing about our "Uncle Toms" - these
"good Negroes" - who daily sell their brethren "down
the river" to win special personal consideration
they always wind up being reegated to the treat
ment and conditions that face their more scrupulous
brethren.
NO - the NAACP isn't troubleseeking group; it
seeks only that brand of justice and equality for black
Americans enjoyed by all other Americans.
If that be agitation or troubesAeking, say to those
who would deny Negroes that type of justice and
equality of opportunity they enjoy themselves READ

PRESS COMMENTS

The December 26th issue of the Dallas Morning
News carries letter by local white man who tells of
the wife of noted coered college president" coming
to him to solicit funds for her husbands school
He asked her, 'Do you know what would happen to
the colored public school teachers here in Texas if
segregated schools abolished coored children
were allowed to go to white schools?"
Though opr public schools are for the education of
our children and not to provide jobs for teachers this
would be tragic, if it were true But it is not true
Our white brother missed two very important points
CD this coored lady soliciting funds and she knew
he answer tnat ne wanted and she to him without
hesitation And (2) if segregation abolished all col
ored children will not go to white schools
What will happen will be that there will be no more
colored white schools. There will be schools of
stone brick wood and steel to which coored and white
children will according choice or convenience And
competent colored and white teachers continue to
teach the children who to them in the same room
and in the same buildings in which they teach.
Any thought of abandoning or closing any of the
schools have is without merit What bother
ing white neghbors is that they do not want their
children to to schools used by Negroes because
they know that these schools basicy inferior
buildings, grounds and facilities These schools in
ferior But we cannot close abandon them.
The National Education Association issued state
ment in the December IL issue of the News to the effect
that Texas needs $50, 600 worth of build
ings to its present shortage, and this does
not include repairs and requirements IeXas neeoS l1oo
more temporary emergency teachers this year The
outlook overcoming Texas shortage Disappointing
because the number of teachers taking teaching edu-
cation courses is smaller this year than last
year.
How can Texas close abandon any of it's schools?
The answer is simple. 1t cannot.
The fact is that Negro teachers in the South are
standing the threshold of and promising future
They are about become ful-fledged teachers What
they must do is prepare themselves, and fasfor the

The New Year came in in a very
pleasant manner was the general
report Of those members and their
guests who went dancing at the
London Country Club Thursday
evening.
The enlarging of the porch at
the club has almost doubled the
capacity and it was there that the
dancing to the Ohio State Colleg-
iennes progressed until 1854 was
we'll launched. The lounge and
wings had been beautifully deco
rated for the holiday season, with
numerous balloons making a very
festive setting for Sitting OUT

breakfast which was a part of the
program planned for the evening
by MIR. and Mrs. Blair Savage, Mr..

tanned at the home of Mrs. Byers
Adair, East High Street, Monday
night for one of the loVehest
parties of the holiday season.
Recently the Adairs redecorateo
their home, and its old-fashioned
charm was accentuated by the
beauty of the yuletide decora-
tfons. Not only were there sprays
of cedar and evergreen with
bright colored ornamented cones
to show the seasonal spirit, but
twinkling light from red and
white tapers cast soft enchantment
over unusual mantle and table
arrangements which featured col
lections of ceramic angels and
choir boys. The dining room table
with its buffet style decor, was
especially appealing with candle
light reflected from the quaint
figurines and the fine silver serv-
ice, showing the treasured an
tidues to rare advantage.
That the mood of Christmas
gaiety might not be curtailed in
this setting, only short meeting
was conducted by Miss Margaret
Chance, in the absence of the
presiding officer, who presented
Miss Margaret Long in charge OF
the program.
