Dispatches have it that Cole Blease has been defeated in his?rata*- to succeed--himself in the Senate. In South Carolina and the South there has always been a minority among the whites who have disdained' a- white supremacy predicated upon oppression-: of ..the Negro. This minority has been as completely overpowered as the Negro himself. Time. and again these whites ha/e made gestures of broader statesmanship but they were alas outnumbered and so they had to endure like the Negroes: what they were powerless to resist. This helpless minority of broadminded whites have.hacLa problem quite as vexing as that of the Negjro and they have made sustained apology for their TillrrraHs and Bleases. Broadminded Negroes have fully7" appreciated their "predicament and have borne the drosS of suffering and ^malediction with patience knowing full well that they had the best wish-\ es of the best whites the minority. At last it has, come about that South Carolina can have a "minority rennr)"'...!,,.! - v muni hi many ways reueems the good name of a state that has been cursed these~TXjirrY^ years . with".a type of demagogies that was as spectacular as it was embarrassing t??people of pride and culture. When the ipjnority reports that it is resolved to put an end to Negro-' baiting and that it is further resolved to no longer .^prostitute the fairname of South Carolina to the cause of the Negro-phdbists, it land* ^ heartening aspect to the Negro's^ mighty struggle to pay the full price of full-fledged citizenship in this country!?For-about forty years^ the majority in South Carolina haa^, reported and always in favor o^' the Tillmans -and the Bleases! , But a silent minority has watched long and earnestly for the cbanee to strike from tlie limbs of worthy potiticaT ambition the chains' forged by?men who were quite willing to thrust the cntrrf Negro citizenry into the lion's den -of the mob violence if only they m+gbt?accede__lo power^ and-preference. Even a minority on justice-resolved cannot be eternally denied! It must be borne in .mind that this from time to.time there will be other i reports to hearten the hard-pressed Netrro race. When Southern &hife "vu.vn opum cue auggeatlUIl Lllct t their safety and purity must be predicated upon?mob violence and when South Carolina retires her far-known champion of such doctrines of lawlessness, we are convinced that the mills of God are grinding. It is going to be a fine thing for the cause of Negro betterment when the Negro is more definitely committed to .full than to "getting back at'' the majdritjvr-,*As between this minority and the Communists, I prefer the former as offering the greater promise of succor in our distresses. The times of tribulation are at hand and because ?*? the minority report from South Carolina the Negro is emboldened to press forward flint-faced and determined to pay the full priteof citizen^" ship and to shoulder the responsibilities thereof! A Straw in The Wind The organization of the Lawntown Shoe Company in Richmond a few years ago was hailed as an event to compare with the stirring events of the days of the True Reformers and the Mechanics Bank. There were many irklicatldhs that the new enler-<>f Nt?gro Richmond which would have guaranteed it greater and greater use fulness in our community. Headed by a ^throughly reliable and capable business man, A. L. Walton, there was every reason to expect great things of the "Lawntown Shoe Company. After a few brief years its doors are closed and another page is written in a history of business tragedy in Richmond! There were many things about the operation of-ttshne store that marked it as a unique business adventure. Banks may have many depositors or it may have a few the banks have the problem of keeping certain assets liquid while others must be^frozen; high finance may play uu important pant anihe success or failure of a bank. But in regards to a Negro- shoe store it is different. -AH-Negroes more or less wear shoes more^ban"?u,bllo^^^^^e8 wear^^ioes of a fine quality.- The mpst casual ?fort of patronage would have kept the doors of the Lawntown Shoe Qq, open. This patronage was not forthcoming.? Let us face the ugly fact that the failure of this worthy enter-, prise is a disgrace to our community! It is further a sad commentary on the Negro's loyalty to Negro en-' \ ' . . IX) LEADEIT ~ ting the "h'\ which makes our ritten this: "Throughout Amerimony to the fact that the white lored woman, and who refuses his own race, is not too proud to i to give his son * the dark skin"1 1 . 1 c.," takes care of American relijootlegging, divorce and all the~ ity for deception ts~glv,en ade- j ion the writer says: "If judg-1 can Democracy as a civilization Sam is convicted as Uncle Sham, | e almost entirely upon confession we could say in truth that this his readers.

We wonder after all, jf the I great growth of Negros insurance j=ha? not been due-to the fact that: wniu? eompanie.1! wore?(mcc .slow LuJ take Negro* risks. We further wonjler if the time comes when white I Companies go out to capture all Nc^I gra insurance in sight, will not No-I gro companies fall upon the evil 1 times. The Lawntown Company I handled the very best of shoes-^the {writer is now wearing a pair pur! chased there three or four years ago and it is doubtful if he has ever worn a better. The writer has two other pairs \t seems- impossible to wear-out There are quality and value there, but Richmond Negroes would i*>t support it. It is sometimes said that Negro business managers are not polite and capable. This can not by any means be said of Mr. Walton. There was not a better kept store in Richmond; yet the'Negroes would not support it. After1 all our talk about race love and loyalty and a'that, it is highly possible that most Negpoes at hearr "calk black" bnt rather "trade white."?There is not much ~ftfhrrct'or the Negro business in the face of such racial hypocrisy." The closing of the Honrs of the Lawntown Shoe Company has a meaning for Negroes throughout the nation. It^ shows which ,way the wind- is brbwijig Nero business. Let us not forget that the task of getting Negroes l<> "trade black" as well as "talk black" in fan from I'm in hoili When we wi-il.' the epitaph on jthe tombstone of the tion w he the?. we^should boginLy naying: "Sacml?to the Memory" or" whether it will be nearer the tnuli to say "Cursed to the Memory" of the Richmond "Negroes who brokCTfirith with "Gus Walton and the Lawntown Slioe Company of Richmond! A nJ a.. I. | rtliu UU I UI III For some time we have wanted iO offer a suggestion that we organize I a "First Negro To" flub. So frequently we come across accounts of "the first Negro to" do this or :tl?ai. There is a "first Negro to" cnmplux_ too prevalent in the Negro news. Often when the first N_pgro does a thing [ whites have been doing that- same thing for thousands of years. This "first "Negro to" distinction may boost I the individual but it certainly disparages the race! POINTED George A. Singleton The weekly text: "And they had the hands of man under their wings". Ezekiel 1:8. The weekly thot: It is the ownership of the soil that everywhere gives, the ownership of the men that live irX r> >>'r. UJJUU iu iicuiy ueorgt' in ri'U^l'l'SS and Poverty." A word from-George is very timely when so1 much is being said about Communism. America is capitalistic# and dominated by "big business." Long since has the Hebrew God been voted out of office and thanl^s for past services rendered. In his stCfKHthe Almighty Dollar has been sworn in.. | Newspapers, magazines, education, ( art, thP church, religion, labor,?all are dominated and ruled by the A I-' mighty Dollar.

It takes an Isaiah to reach such a conclusion, and the 4a*t up^ pear amongst men was exromniiiiiicated. Isaiah Was .a prophet.. The race will pever be saved by the priest but by the prophets.

Brother Schuyler of the Pittsburg Courrier handles my co-columnist, Gpr don Handcock in a merciless manner. ThP Professor is able to take care of himself.

This writer is sympathetic wil%.. Brother Schuyler and the nascent group of malcontents who chafe beneath the iw>ke of what they call "re- J ligion." For years this servant has .-nntpmlufl fnv ..mnnfipntinn from cant, hypocrisy, empty form, super^l st it ion mid m?re tradition In religion: Brother Sehuyler-would repudiate _re-i ligion altogether, but the religion .of the future hg_.\yill no doubt be forced to embrace: "The qudst_of the good life m ;i good world." That religion which accepts truth and light from anv source whatsoever, aiid having accepted FTh> tindings ot workers TrT all fields builds a world view, pushes a. world program which will make ultimatoy foor happiness, peace and brotherhood. ' This religion will not be an opiate and crasht individuals, but a refusal to surrender-Jo social injustice of anv sort. Thus armed with knowledge and the modern science man will dare to. lnild a home in the earth and realy.e the dream of ancient seers. Any leligioon which wilL not front and face the radical solution of social problems, is. bound to lose the respect of thinking men in this age when humanism is making such tremendous gains. ! In a recent issue of thP Christian Recorder, the oldest offictafmrgun Of thp-Ar-M.?fir-Ch-urclr, Dr. Wrighthas an abje editorial on support of education by his denomination. -It appears under th0 caption: "Who's going to nay the bill?" WelHtloes 'he argue that the people cannot afford to retreat. This writer hastens to add, unless the state decides to play fair is Kentucky seems to be doing "under the circumstances." He would add further that it is not so much of a task tu^aise the money as it is to keep track of its expenditure. Dr. Wright's church does not need tojc&ise more educational funds but see to- it that the amounts raised are approrpiatpd according ttT standards of jusLtici1, honesty" and common sens?."
