ft is my earnest conviction that
your present effort to oppose the
Draft and your udvlce to young Neitrob^
not even register is 111-advised,
easily capable of being interureted
"tt-s unpatriotic, will get Negroes
in serious trouble who follow
you at this point and will eventually
cripple your own usefulness as
a great leader among us. , . ' { Believe
me, you are not ulone in
feeling the burden of our group
There is a wide spread dissatisfaction
among Negroes to being ma^le
second class citizens The "White
man has sense .sufficient. "to-know
that Negroes simply can not have n
superlative affection for a country

krid then asks them to die fur it
Many -of us still beilev;.: uhd I an.

Taut is, America is a good land, that
ur rights are gradually being .granted.
that full rights must eventually
come, but that progress in human
relations is exceedingly slow. The
only thing that cuts short the process
Is revolution. 1 believe all think
ir.g Negroes would oppose th*
hilly of such an idea I share your
impatience in feeling that We want
all our rights and we want them
now. 1 share no one's confidence
that America will grant these rights
now TO clo the rteht?thlinr?s pre-sumes
goodness. America Is not
good enough at heart to do the right
thing*" I do hut believe that- we can
force our way tjirupgh noii-cooperutlem
There art* thousands1 of Negroes
.v hii highly regard your opinions. If
t liese Negroes follow VyilT?
tliat tney flatly refuse' t-o register
for Draft, they will thid thejnj^elves
hi contempt of their country, they
will doubtlessly end up In Jail, be

hus-made provision for those
who have honest religious scrupiet
d gainst war. It recognizes the conN^muttiuiiM
objector. I do nut Lwlievt
U w;U, nor can well afford-to pus^
up lightly the Issues created by the
refusal to register 'for the Draft
Finally, it is my candid opinion^
har ff ybu persist in your present
rourse you will eventually so anta- ,
tonize your government that you S
vill be charged with subvesive ac- j
ivitics and your own liberty taken
;rom you. I know that a brilliant;
irgument can be made for the 'Jail
is u concomitant of progress.
In spite of this argument, I am
:;ure you can serve your group mctfe
ilTectively as a free Than, fighting
rtlways within the law, than from

As vour friend. I strongly urge
