same. When our society was more
static, providing few contacts with
minority racial or religious groups,
these loaded words caused less in
jury. But they were wrong, none
theless, and their use today, when
four contacts with other creeds
races and national groups are
rapidly multiplying, is a serious
breach of charity.
The fact that our contacts are
increasing with non-whites is
shown by 1860 census figures for
Minnesota. Non-whites, including
Negroes, Indians, Japanese and
Chinese, increased almost At per
cent over 1850, compared to IA
per cent for the states white pop
ulation. The numerical increase
was small, however, from under
$4,000 in 1850 to over $4,000 in
1860.
Brotherhood week from Feb. 10
to %, is as good a time as any to
take a look at the terms we use
which give offense to others. One
of the most common of these load
ed words is niger" and we find
it in all too many everyday express
sions. Take there's a niger in
the woodpile," or last one in is a
niggerbaby," for example. A good
rule of thumb on these words is to
determine whether you can use
them comfortably in the presence
of a member of the minority group
to which they refer Editors Note:
You can't, and 1t will be a long
time before you canD
What are some Of the other
words that cause offense and hence
should always be avoided? Com
munity, a monthly published in
Chicago by Friendship House, a
group of Catholics dedicated to
eliminating racial prejudice, pub
lished a list Of these words in its
February issue. Here they are:
"Kike, sheenie, yid, mess-can,
paddy, jig, jigaboo, negress, mig
ger, nigra Ia half-hearted effort
to say Negro), boogie, boy (when
used to address an adult male Ne
gro), shine, spook, darby, coon,
cracker, red-neck, white trash,
peckerwood, niger lover, chink,
polack and bohunk."
Not a very pretty collection, is
it? Wipe these words from our
daily vocabulary and we will have
made real progress toward the
brotherhood that comes with NUT
udl EeSpeCI'
Perhaps you may feel that clean
ing up our vocabulary is not going
to solve our growing problems in
intergroup relations. 1t will not
solve these problems today, but
it will be a major step in removing
the unreasoning prejudices with
which we are all afflicted.
It is hard to change the deep
seated fears and animosities with
which we have grown up, but we
can avoid communicating our
younger listeners with the same
loaded words.
After all, prejudice has to be
learned. It's not inherited. There is
much wisdom in the words Of Os-
car Hammerstein's song from
South Pacific" which says in

oClNSo WHICH, TGpdE6u lueUl IL
shame is that many of the men
who took advantage of the CT bill
frittered away their time in school,
and too many dropped out.
Even so some of those who
dropped cut are holding better
jobs than those who did not en-
ter school at all.
More Negro youngsters are re-
naming in school through high
school and more of them in the
Twin Cities are entering college
and completing college courses.
This is good omen but still
leaves much to be desired because
the drop-outs of Negroes of Sec
ondary school age is still to high
In Minneapolis and st. Paul.
AS Ashby Gaskins, Minneapolis
Urban League Vocational Services
director pointed out in his article
which appeared in the Feb. 23rd
edition of this paper, there are
about nine Negroes teaching at the
University of Minnesota.
Only IL Teachers In st. Paul
There are an estimated twelve
Negro teachers in st. Paul elemen-
tary and secondary schools. This
seems a small number in view Of
st. Pauls need for teachers. None
of the teachers in the schools with
the exception of one are what can
be called a local products. The Ne
gro community in st. Paul should
make study of why there are so
few teachers of Negro ancestry in
the public schools. Those who are
in the system appear to be making
good records.
Hospitals Source OF Jobs
A new source of considerable
employment for the Negro COM
munity are the public and private
hospitals of both cities. Minneapo-
lis hospitals generally have a good
policy of employing nurses, medi-
cal technicians, orderlies, kitchen
and laundry help.
At the University of Minnesota
hospitals, a good employment
policy exists and a sizeable group
Of Negroes work there where they
were seen as patients only few
years ago. This includes employ
ment in offices as clerks, typists
and stenographers.
At st. PauPs Ancker hospital
Negroes work at all levels in this
city and county institution.
In most of st. Paul's private
hospitals Negroes are employed as
nurses and technicians.
Social Service Field Wide Open
In the public and private social
service fields Negroes have con-
tinued to hold important jobs thru
the years. Both in st. Paul and
Minneapolis Negro women social
workers hold supervisory posts
where they oversee the work of
workers who happen to be men,
bers of the majority group.
In addition there are in Mime
apolis integrated settlement houses
with integrated stats. One of them
the formerly almost all Negro
community facility has an execu-
tive director Henry r. Thomas,
who heads the staff which will
eventually be fully integrated.
The same is true of Halle Q.
