H ANCOCK | , 1 ' " - j! 1 l i Two great mistakes. The fiftieth anniversary of Tuske- f ling was it tor the President of the ' United States to tend distinction to the I occasion by his broadcast. It was a , signal recognition that honored Mr. j; Hoover no U-sa?than Tuskegee stands ; today as an imperishable monument ! to tne. genius oi man, and that he was a Negro makes it all the more marv:- 1 lous! As long as written records en- ! dure amoung.men, the name of Booker .j greatest benefactors of mankind. The | Tuskegee idea was a great one and time and circumstances are conspir- ' ing to show that Booker T. Washing- ( ton was a statesman and a prophet who* looked over the shoulders of his - generation away into a future the , secrets of which even now-men cannot j, ~ fathom. -W hen wash ing toy arose as-( i- an ambassador pf good?will andj , Apostle of industrial education as a ; , ~ means of the .Negro's further emanci-[ pation. he was often misunderstood i und, often maligned. The Negroes i, could no more understand Washington ; Titan the Jews could understand him | ( who came to bring them salvation. | r The greatness 'of Washington can, best be seen tlmSuirh the nresnpctivp i 1 of the years, but so has' it been witiv3} - great hearts from ancient days. < There is something tragic in the | mistake made in appraising Booker) f T. Washington and I)r. DuBois as \ leaders of the Xegro race. There are I ~ many evidences to show that the mistake was not so much thgt of the two great men themselves as of their followers. Very seldom are great men as far apart as are their discipjes! To ' the casual thinker the Washington and ' _ DuBois philosophies of the Negro i race may. stem antagonistic. To the - more serious thinker they are eomplea although the Negro race needed and needs' now. high education and the ballot which Dr. DuBois so vigorously advocated; the race also needed and needs now the economic assurance L that only econmic efficiency can gn.t> rantec and this was. the underlying i- idea of Booker T. Washington. The t devotees of the two schools of thought I _ flew of intellectual?quibbling?and Lhe_.race_bas-_suffvxed because of it. It is true we need ati^uUelligentsia .among the Negro race but we also need'a'working class to support then:. The man who strove to economically assure trie working masses was indirectly making possible theprofession .aJ?classes..?The?man? who?strove to- supply the Norm race?with oroiW? sional classes was ind-irectfv assuv. ing the working massesf Instead oi ; being antagonistic as their disciples so i enthusiastically imagined, they were complementary as all can clearly see today; In the flush of excitement incident to his new-found free1 dom, it was quite natural that the Newhat we can see today; that he should i'.' rather look with disdain upon him who pointed out the humble approach to the highway of manhood. Washington's program was not popular-is u -not popular now-but is suggested cer tain 'fundamentalsin raee-buildlhg~" ~ thai are neing more imd mqre considered by serious thinkers. At the . time when Washington came on the j scene, three courses were open to the j ' newly emancinated Negroes. They might purpufull citizenship by per1 fecting industrial efficiency; or they might'strive for the ballot, the only t logical means of attaining full-fledg, ed citizenship in a'uiemocracy; or atilhthev might strive for full social equality. The very latitude in choice may have been to our. racial detri- , I ment for after years, the Negro has > neither attained social equality, nor , won the ballot, nor perfected an in|dustri,al efficiency. Kconomieallv the Negro, is still at the mercv of the white' man. The recent reoort of the motft unmistakably this* tragic fact. Whether it would have been worse ~ had the Negro subscribed to ihe teacK*" . ings of Washington is a matter that admits of debate. It was si great L mistake-it. is- now ^ Hgeeaf-- noistoke1 tn ass1)""- f ?*-Wfrrhingtoti'ahd DuBois are contradictory and our present plight may be the results of that mistake. Had the Negro realized that these two schools of thought were complementary, the b cloud*-might wot be -so dark on out"' economic horizon. . The next great mistake is the one of assuming that our present plight , is due to the inherent failure of Wast. must not be supposed that fifty year3 , of Tuskegee means< fifty'years for i?dustria! education for the Negro race. | Nothing could be farther from the | troth. From Its vefy beginning in > I.EAQER ii i meeting of the Clinical Society )f Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Baum;s G. Baumgardner of this city, and was chief assistant to Dr. k City, Surgeon in chief at the lumgardner read a paper "The of Carcinoma of the Breast."

Chavis, of elected Supervisor of Medical irdner and Chavijr are all well Dieted their High School work bble, Baumgardner and Chavis liversity Medical School. The rid know when accomplishments de, and especially when those ith Carolfna's own. Justrial eductH'on has jnever beu: zonular with Negroes. It smaHtol too much of their "previous condition >f servitude." Fot hundreds of years is a loberer, the Negro had his hii-oflard work or anything1 that looked ike it; consequently the approach to full 'citizenship" via the ballot was nore inviting. Industrial ' educa ion like Christianity has never had a jood chayice. Reduced 1k> its last oeen in the ascendancy for it comported more certainlv with the ambi lions of the race with its new-found freedom. For every Negro with the Washington point of view there arescores with the DuBois point of view. Even now the average Negro is afraid of aoything that looks like industrial education and the average Negro leader is afraid to advocate anything like it. All of our educational instututiortfc are committed to the DuBois point of view and nine students out of-ten feel that being >rofessional is superior to being an industrial worker. Although Washington preached it ardently, the Negro has not been able to -see the dignit'v' in common labor. Statistics show ?ufT positions out of a hundred places of employment; yet if we were to ask who are the favored eight, al-. most a hundred out of a hundred would bcin to wonder who are the other seven! It is this attitude-of the Negro race that must be changed if we are to survive~in this country. A lfUmirtk Anf 1 o f? A ? /I f " face the jssue apd talk plainly to our misguided ^eo^'e. the" must eventually, or be overwhelmed in the great, economic conflict that is approaching. One of the reasons it is so difficult to get Negroes to do business with?Negroes is the attitude of some professional Negro tow.-<*ds his more titudes must be broken down before; we can advance. It is a mistake to suppose that the points of view of Washington and DuBois are fundamentally antagonistic. It is a mistake to suppose that fifty years of Tuskcgeel means fifty years nf indnstrial education for the Negro race! I POINTED *' POINTS George A. Singeton The weekly text.

Years ago LouisX s 1, and Marie Antoinette were driven frrun <hrn^r? in France and | fered their heads to be severed frbm their bodies because of the teaching 1 of RoSseau, and his glorious company.

If Russia has been caught in the act of infidelity, anarchy, communism, or nihilism, let him that is without sin cast the first stone at her.
