"A Frightening
Witches Sabbath

Late in 1850 the incident most reported and
pictured in the newspapers was the matriculation
of a couple Of tiny Negro children in New Orleans
school E. . What made the newsmen love the story
was group of stout middle-aged women who
gathered every day to scream invectives at the
children and a crowd gathered every day to en-
joy and to applaud But now heard the words
bestial and filthy and degenerate. In long and
protected life have and heard the vomitngs OF
degenerate humans before. Why then did these
screams fill me with a shocked and sckening sor-
row? The words written down dirty, carefully
and seectedly filthy. But here was something far
worse than dirt, kind of frightening witches Sab

Should Be Investigated

In making finding Of guilty against Charles
e. Damels-the man involved in the May 18 shooting
incident with Minneapolis police, Judge Irving Brand
commented that the legality of the arrest and the
behavior Of the police not matters before the
court. But he added, If the defense testimony is
true these matters ought to be taken up by the
proper authorities.
We agree. The testimony of the prosecution
was that the two policemen, Wayne Brakeman and
Fred Whaley, arrested Daniels for "cursing" them
Daniels and his wife denied this They testified that
the police dragged him out of the car by the hair
and the throat and scuffled with him. Daniels also
testified that later policeman tried to put ,gun
in his hand 80 I'll have excuse to blow your
brains out"
The policemen involved in these shenanigans
should be given a hearing and, If guilty, should be
severely dealt with.

Failure To Deal
With Unemployment
Serious Situation

The failure Of the federal government to deal
adequately with our frightening unemployment
problem is having preotable effects upon the drive
for equal job opportunities for Negroes.
It's like the game of musical chairs: When there
aren't enough jobs to go around there's going to be
a scramble for every job there Is And white people
and Negroes too, going to use every argument
at their disposal to get the job
Coming at time when the Negro demand for
equal treatment is being pressed effectively, the
unemployment rate is most unfortunate. 1t is likely
10 give rise to tensions and conflicts that ought to
be avoidabe. Already white people beginning tc
complain that the Negro drive for equal job treat
ment amounts to discrimination against whites.
Ironically enough, the basis of this complaint is
the fact that historically the Negro has had to bear
the major impact Of every recession of employment
Last hired and first to be laid off," has been the
rule up to now Any change in this rule means that
somebody besides Negroes is going to have to suffer
more than before from reduction Of employment.
Conflicts and tensions are nothing during
periods of unemployment. The younger workers,
with less seniority to protect them, have been In
conflict with the older. Criticism of working wives"
always increases at such times. The process Of
workers using their seniority to bump" fellow
workers jobs Of lower skill gives rise to bitter
argument. And so it goes.
The fact that a development of great historical
Importance is taking place makes it doubly i'm
portant that all possible be turned to solv
ing the unemployment problem as soon as possible
If this is DONE the upgrading Of Negro workers
to position Of equal opportunity be accomp-
Hshed without unmanageable conflict and tension
1t is not DONE may find that the conflicts will
be very destructive indeed.

A Churl Is A
Churl, Is A Churl

Some of our friends have been making the
point that sometimes the churlish manners and the
mistreatment which Negroes ascribe to anti-Negro
prejudice not that at all; that white people in
the same circumstances encounter the same bad
manners and churlishness.
The point Is made most often In connection with
police relationships, and It has some validity. Ne
groes are more conscious than white people Of the
fact that some people the police forces Of our
country who have business being there It Is not
that these characters mad at Negroes particu-
larly 1t is that they are mad at everybody. This
probably affects their manners though in all like
Hhood they chIrrl to begin with and never had
any manners.
The policeman who hands out phony traffic
tickets, and the who makes overzealous con-
clusons about stricken person whose affliction re-
sembles intoxcation soon learns the prudence of
limiting his pushing around activities to people who
defenseless. he tries 1t too often with citizens
who know their rights and have the resources to
fight back he begins to build up a record that no
policeman wants. There policemen on the Min
neapois and St. Paul forces who dearly wish they
had not been 50 sure that all Negroes are defense
less.
The fact that we do have a double standard of
law enforcement is a blot the police profession
Even assuming that all police even-handed about
the way they push around whites and Negroes
whose economic status makes them relatively de-
fenseess conceding this does not the police
by any means.
It would be a choice piece Of irony If the Ne
groes civil rights battle should root out this intus-
tice not only for Negroes but also for whites who
are scarcely aware Of 1t.

ISSUES: GOOD
AND BAD
BY p. L. PRATTIS

President Kennedy Is forcing
my man." Barry Goldwater on
the defensive as the time comes to
put up or shut UP while evolving
plans for the Presidential race in
1854.
Barry is GLIB as all get-out and
can reach for casudstry at the drop
of another fellows idea, good or
bad.
You don't hear much about the
Republican truth squad any
more since Barry has been on the
trial. All the Republicans need
now is a Goldwater press confer
ence the morning after Kennedy
has done something, anything, wise
or unwise. Barry can always tell
us Americans how dangerous or
wrong the Presidents actions are.
He can back up his opinions with
what stands for reason.
AS the nation moves toward
1854, however, it Is a bit intriguing
to observe what seems like the
Kennedy strategy for 1864. Just
like Ike caused the American
people to feel that he would get
rid Of the Korean war and jumped
over Stevenson's head into the
White House, Kennedy is dumping
the cold war. This is much more
important than dumping the sldr-
mish in Korea. 1t Is like telling
millions of voters that their chill
dren are going to have chance
to live.
No one could have thought
after the Cuban crisis that any
thing could be done to lessen
tensions between the Soviet
Union and the United States, but
now the newspapers are even
running stories about Russian
fishing ships saving the lives Of
Americans at sea, and Of Rus
sian agreement to a certain type
Of limited inspection II the Unit
ed States viii agree to a certain
type Of limited arms reduction.
OF course, this puts the south
ern Democrats on the spot. They've
got to go along with a man who
seems to be doing something about
the existence Of human beings in
the future.
Barry may think any kind Of
a deal with the Russians n sus-
pect and bad, but the American
people will appreciate a deal
which provides that they are go
ing to be able to eat, drink and
be merry with the forward
march Of time.
Another strategic move from
the Kennedy camp which Goldwat-
er Is going to find 1t difficult to
condemn is the tax-cutting pro-
gram presented by Republican
Secretary Of the Treasury Dillon.
This Is the kind of measure the
Democrats, despite their cleavage
on civil rights, have the votes to
put over.
Respecting this bill, every
Democrat, North and South, will

would not blame my man"
Barry from feeling discounted,
nor even Nelson Rockefeller. This
upstart Kennedy has done the very
things Rockefeller would have done
If he had had the chance. It's
a wonder how the President gets
around to these matters, touching
so many people, when he has so
many other things to do.
If I can make It to Washington
on the 28th, I'm going to ask him
how he maps his strategy.

Don't Panic When Freezer Fails,

don't push the panic"
button.
That's the advice Of q
United states Agriculture
Department expert, who has
prepared q leaflet on what
to DO When Your HON e
Freezer Stops"
There is. 1t appears. more
than one avenue of escape for
frozen foods, about to perish
in a powerless freezer.
On the brightest side, keep
bearing in mind that food in
a well-filled. well-insulated
IL to SO cubic-foot home
freezer will not begin to spoil
In less than five days.
Sad News
In contrast, the sad news
is that In q cabinet with less
than half q load. food will
not stay frozen more than a
day. SO, If q hurricane hits,
prepare to lose some frozen
supplies unless help comes
within five days, or less.
II the freezer stops run
ming and will be off for some
time, the leaflet advises, take
these steps: /. Keep
the freezer closed. 2. Move
the food to a locker plant.
3. Add dry Ice If you can get
1t with gloves on). 4. Can
all the food at once.
Should you cover the freez-
er with blankets2 According
to the specialist, blankets,
quilts Or some other cover
ing are helpful If you have
put dry ice in the cabinet. 1t
viii help. too. to put crum-
pied newspaper between the
cabinet and blankets.
If you put blankets or
other coverings on the freez-
er. be sure to pin or fasten
them so that they will not
cover the air-vent openings.

to take your food there in
an emergency.
q. Try to locate q source
Of dry ice in your commu-
nifty.
8. Keep canning supplies
on hand. and keep canning
equipment in good working
order. At times. the only,
practical solution Is to can
thawed food to save 1t.
4. During the seasons when
power failure Is frequent In
your community, it's good in
surance to run the freezer
between 10 and 20 degrees
below zero.
5. In choosing q freezer,
select one with good insula-
ton. A well-insulated freezer
keeps food cold hours longer
