Another Booker T. Washington

Another Booker |. Washington
The paramount need of Negro Americans is intei-
gent realistic and wise leadership. The serious lack of
it is in small way responsible for the shockingy dis
graceful and tragic state of relations country
today.
of Booker T. Washington coupled with the rise of pre-
ferred status of the socastc philosophy of the WEB
Dubois school of thought, may readily understand
why relations between Negro and white Americans
dropped to the lowest level in years
And, too, Grant government is in small way
responsible for the theological and organzaonal sue
of than three decades of red agitation and
propaganda to split America prelude to conquest
Through governmental default, the virus of commu-
nism allowed to spread, taking firm hold pri-
mary the Negro inteigentsa Fortunately the vast
majority of the frank and fe Negro Americans did not
fall for the empty talk of the reds follow the treach
path suggested to them by the intellectual dupes
An examination of the official records of govern
ment agencies investigating communism in America
shows that the majority of Negroes and their white
allies who engaged in agtatng and stirring up racial
unrest, have been engaged in advancing the
cause of communism. Some of them have record
spanning more than four decades of activity in the
radical movement.
When the cheat" on many of these agitators
went into hiding. Now that the Supreme Court has
created ideal climate for red activity they have
come into the open again There others who work
ed either openly coverty to scuttle the internal
curlty program for fear of being caught in its viseke
jaws Still others gently chded the reds to appear
formed and respectable, while at the time work
ing to scute and defeat every internal security
At no time have these Negro eftsts co-operat-
ed with the government in genuine effort against the
red conspiracy Significantly Investigating committees
for some have avoided calling Negro eftsts to
testify under OATH Perhaps the may be found
in the political consequences of hue and cry of Ne
persecution that is almost certain to be raised 1t
seems to me that fear of the tag antiNegro bias kills
automatically any idea of conducting thorough in
vestgation of subversive activities among Negroes
Thus color and race becomes stopper to investiga-
ton in an area declared taboo by the reds
The reds always considered the Negro intellectual
shallow superficial" and "phony" who could easily
be manipulated. Thus, through the medium of fattery
feigned nterratiasm and deceptive program the reds
able to win over many Negro inteectuas The 'red
carpet rolled out for those Negroes considered very
important to the Party In this category fall editors
columnsts of newspapers key officers in important Ne
organizations, college university professors ar
tists entertainers, and labor leaders, Sometimes the
red carpet treatment consisted of invitations to the
home of wealthy white communist for cocktails and
and exchange of views with few prominent persons
As other times, the full treatment given This con-
ssts of food, booze and sex. The Communist Party
has always had dedicated band of white spec
tally trained for this phase of communist activities
In order to subver and win over the so-called Ne-
gro Masses" white communists fellow travellers and
their liberal friends invaded the Negro community join
ed Negro organizations helped to form organizations for
Negroes, ostensbly tc flight for Negro rights These
invaders posing friends nothing but political
soldiers" of an aen-directed army under orders to
entrap and the Negro 1t is to the everlasting credit
of the Negro masses that they quickly saw through
the phony activities of these treacherous white carpet
pagers
A careful check into the background of the promi-
nent Negro agitators reveals the startling fact that
many of them able to go through various colleges
and universities grants from foundations set up by
white philanthropsts Another startling fact is that
most of them have lived all their adult life on the arges-
of white leftsts liberals bleeding hearts" dogood
ers and philanthropsts. They have no feeling no
sympathy, understanding for the Negro masses To
them, the merely something use as step
ping stone to sefadvancement Indignation is some
thing that they want to put for sinister reason
However they find it difficult to achieve without using
the muscle of the down below.
Negro American must later face the fact
that the Negro leaders of the NAACP and their Negro
red supporters constitute cheap synthetic leadership
distilled in the laboratory of white persons whose mo-
tives suspect.
Never the need for the leadership of men of the
caiber of Booker T. Washington more garingy re-
vealed than in the socalled Summit Conference" at
the Hotel Raleigh in Washington, D. Co. May 1920 1853
At this conference, approximately 400 Negro big
wigs gathered in what widely publicized as con
ference OF leaders aimed at finding way resolve the
grave crisis in race relations Many persons expected
that important and momentous decisions would arise
out OF the Such expectations stirred
