Negro businessmen must learn
sales and management from the
bottom up or Federal laws guar
anteeing equal opportunity will
mean nothing, Chicago eXecu-
tive told members of the District
Of Columbia Chamber Of Com
merce last night.
He addressed the annual
awards banquet of the chamber
at the Statler Hilton Hotel,
Seventeen Negro business lead
ers, nine from the District, re-
ceived certificates honorin 6
them for their achievements.
The speaker, Earl B. Dicker-
son, president of the Chicago
based Supreme Life Insurance
Co. of America, said Negro busi-
nessmen can compete equally
only when they have equal
training and experience.
He lauded efforts of the Small
Business Administration and
other groups to provide finan-
cial aid and management train
ing to small firms.
Word of Caution
ut is illogical in our demo-
cratic society to think that in
the long run we can build a
society in which on one side OF
the street the participants are
Negro and on the other side
they are white" Mr.. Dickerson
told the group. "The old way OF
thinking of Negro businesses
and Negro chambers of COM
merce must give way to the in
tegrated way of thinking that
there is no such thing as Negro
business"
Another speaker, Robert w
Kitchen, an official of the
Agency for International De-
velopment, cautioned that the
Negro busines community
must not focus on what some
body else can do for us, but
what we can do for ourselves.
1t should be of no concern
he said, that the growth OF
Negro-owned and operate d
business has been slow. But II
would be bad to run a slow race
and finish last"
A third speaker. Fredric T
Suss, general counsel of the
Small Business Association
outlined the services made
available by his organization
The nine local businessmen
receiving awards were:
Henry Darlington, president
of the Henry Fuel Co.; w. Bur-

They are sold under several

Another hint is that motion

3-Day School, Experimental
Approach To Farm Management

calculating the cost of operation
of their equipment and the cost
of production of crops and live
stock on their farms and have
requested that the schools be
continued"
One purpose of the school has
been to point out problem areas
in the farm business and to
teach methods for the farmer to
to use in calculating his costs.
For example. the cost of owning
and operating farm machinery
is definitely a real problem on
many farms. At this school, the
farmers have learned to cal
culate their actual tractor cost
per hour of use as well as the
costs of oreration of other items
of equipment. This same pro-
cedllre has been used in figuring
total cost Of labor, various
crops and pasture. and profit or
loss for various livestock enter
prises. The whole procedure is
designed to train the farmer so
he can figure exactly what he is
now doing then use this know
ledge to better assist him in
deciding future plans.
Probably enc of the most val
liable aspects of the training
will turn out to be the fact that
the farmers will be thinking
about good management more
in the future.
The Extension Agents involv
ed in the teaching have learned
in turn from the students
and hope to put their lessons in
70 practice towards making
many improvements in the next
Farm Management School as
well as the farm mana cement
program in general.

are primarily Grade A Dairy
men or General Livestock farm
ers. These farmers have sew
eral things in common despite
the fact that they are engaged
in different tyres Of farming.
First Of all. they have an
average awareness Of the differ
ence good management can
mean to the profit realized from
their operation. Secondly, they
realize that the pencil has be-
come one of the most important
tools they have available to use
in farming. Frequent use Of
this pencil was required during
the school and in doing home
work assignments Thirdly, these
men know the value Of keeping
an accurate farm record and
using this record as a basis for
improving their farm operation
These factors helped furnish the
necessary initiative for partici.
pating in these three all-day
sessions.
This school was presented in
five counties with one day each
week in each county for three
weeks. The groups In Bedford
Appoma ltox, Luuenburg, and

equally as responsive and COM
Elementary as the Cumberland
folks, according to E. w. Carson
district extension agent for this
area. Mr.. Carson added regard
ing the schools, that: farmers
are truly getting cost conscious,
this is evidenced by the records
they are keeping. It has also
been interesting to observe in
these schools that every farmer
has participated in the workshop
sessions. Farmers have been
