MANNING, S. C., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1919.
FOREIGNERS-GOOD AND BAD.
In this country we have millions of foreigners-English, French, Ger
man, Austrian, Italian, Belgian, Sweedish, Norwegian, Greek, Turkish, Jap
anese, Chinese, and of every other nationality. The great majority of these
foreigners are conscientious and law abiding citizens.
They work.
There is also in this country another class of foreigners. They con
stitute the minority. They are not law abiding, and they are not citizens.
THEY AGITATE.
And because of the wild eyed bolshevistic vaporings of these anarchis
tic wind jammers and destroyers our country of late has been in a constant
state of turmoil.
This continual unrest and uncertainty are curtailing production, under
mining efficiency and alienating the loyalty of many good men.
It must cease.
Labor and capita! must get together on a sane and reasonable working
basis, where the division of profits will be fair to both sides.
But this will never be accomplished by allowing a braying minority to
usurp the authority which belongs to a sane majority.
Men of intelligence and integrity do not care to take orders from illiter
ate and irresponsible foreigners whose only claims to leadership are a mis
guided conscience and a pair of leather lungs.
Brains, not noise, must prevail if we are to live in peace and plenty in
this country.
"GET A JOB; GO TO WORK."
Wholesome advice to the negroes of the South, especially those who have
seen service in the army, and the more especially those who have returned
from France, is contained in a letter to the Savannah Morning News from
one of their own race, a former soldier and one who himself saw service in
France.
Summed up in a word, the advice of this negro, who when he received'
his discharge from the service returned to the town from which he entered
the army and to the job he gave up to fight for America, is simply "Get a
Job; Go to Work." As a matter of fact, these are his words.
Sam Overstreet is his name. Sergeant Overstreet he was in the army.
On his discharge appears the word "excellent." He made a good soldier,
which he attributes to the fact of his obedience to his superior officers and his
respect for them. As chauffeur for a staff officer he drove a car 30,000 miles
on the Western front.
ean nas written nis letter mn tne snira person ana it is given prominence
on the editorial page of the Savannah paper. He says he has studied the
present situation here and elsewhere "and that the biggest portion of this
race trouble is caused by a misunderstanding between the races." He urges
"each and every negro to the idea that he can live in peace and harmony, and
this is no time for foolishness, but to get a job and go to work." "Those
that have jobs," says Sam, "should hold them, and those that haven't got
them should get them, the sooner the better."
"There never was a (lay or time," continues, "when the white
people were any more willing to help the negro in any way they
know, but don't look for them t carry you around in a silver waiter
ibecause you went to France. Our own color won't do that. But
know, but don't look for them to carry you around in a silver waiter
will get; all.the help you want. The white people are .proud of the
negro and the record he made and are willing to help him, but he
must know his place and stay there. Social things will take care of
thenilves."
Applying this principle to himself, it has worked, this pegro adds. The
ran for whom he worked before he entered the service not only gave him a
job when he returned home, but gave him a better job than he had before.
If the negroes of the South would harken to the practical advice of this
nimmber- of their own race, one who lives and has his being in the South and
who knows actual conditions as they exist down here, instead of following
ol' after strange gods, absorbing the poisonous teaching of malcontents who
preach to them from beyond the Mason and Dixon's line, racial trouble would
be confined to that section of the country and the white man and the negro
would live together in peace and prosperity in the South.
In his admonition, "Get a Job; Go to Work," there is likewise some
mighty good advice for the whites as well as the negroes.
