Matter of Principle

I would like to suggest that,
although there are undoubt-
eddy some Negro schools that
are as good" as some schools
for whites, this is entirely be-
side the point. 1t is the prin-
ciple Of the thing.
A Negro who is a citizen
Of the u. s. A. is an American
and right now he is being de-
MED his rightful heritage
equal opportunity for adj
vancement.
A person who points to the
number of crimes committed
by Negroes, to the number
Of Negroes engaged in UNI
skilled labor, Is being unfair.
Corresponding statistics ex-
list for whites at the same
economic level. Negroes are
not genetically inferior.
Give the Negro race the
chance it deserves. The Amer
lean Negro will better his
position in society. The race
will produce more men who
will leave great contribu-
tions to the HUMAN race.

Dear Mrs. Kicker:

Dear Mrs. Kicker;
Recently at q weekly
teen-age dance / met a boy
I thought was very nice. He
said he liked me and I told
him the same thing. But
this week when / danced
with him, he started doing
a slow dance which is not
very nice. My girl friend
told me she had known
him from somewhere else
and he wasn't a nice boy.
Well, i told him not to
bother me any more but I
didn't give him any rea-
son. He just said, "Okay,"
and acted disguised. Then
I started thinking. Mrs.
Kicker, do you suppose
my girl friend might be
wrong? I still like him
and l know he likes me.
I've discussed this situa-
ton with my parents and
they suggested that / write
to you. My idea was to ex-
plain to Jackie that / will
only go out with him if he
acts like a gentleman. 1

and 1 have the courage to
tell him the truth. Should

satellites, there should be no
trouble between the races.
The firm stand on segrega-
ton should not exist. We
should not ban citizens from
public parks. buses and pub
lie schools because their skin
is a different color.
The Negro is a human be-
ing just like all the rest Of
the people God set upon this
earth. 1t is not the color but
the ability upon which a per-
son is judged in our society.
In each racial group there
are the good and the bad.
Before we can get along
internationally, first we must
be able to get along ma
tionally. The firm stand
against Indignation must be
broken and broken soon.
