Mr. White suggests as the only effective and 1

Americans. Even-handed justice, according to the
r? "V'title, and incidentally according to our way of

nd Homes. Assurance of justice, in the courts and
protection of life in every one of the United States.

" so in .sheer enlightened selfishness, if no other~rea- ~

relations, and to those who are interested in

j Last Sunday afternoon a (Mass Meeting that was
largely attended, was held at Allen University, the
purpose being the consideration of matters per
raining , to the announced intention of the Duke

the pIhns ol hdspiiillZlillOn US they WW6 J
presented by investigtors who had made diligent |
* vrnjuiry. into the many ramifications of the project, i
1 A copy of these resolutions was published in the
| laily papers Monday of the .current week, while. i
another-copy, was handea over to a Committee. 3?r
} looted at the Mass Meeting to confer with the
' hospital authorities at the Columbia Hospial The
resolutions express in no wavering or compromsiing
eims the disinclination on the part of Columbia '
Negroes to be subjected to back alley, Jim Crow
--theirs as regards their health and. life. \
Whether or not this meeting proves efficacious ,
in arresting the proposed hospital plans, much ,
good has been accomplished in sounding out the
L-U'ople by and large as to their reactions to these i
events of such momentous importance to them. \
We might advance faster if the people were i
?taken into our confidence more often for it is that 1
,;(.t nil filled the people who are the ultimate ar- i
= ?;v-vs of~nll our destinies. . =

Wo rather admire the expressed Community con- (

kindled because of this situation shall not be per- ]
v.itted to die even if what it set about to accom- i

Negro race. The Negro's-cross has been heavier by
reason of the lives and labors of ahese men. They t

? (iii- line should pass and clear thti Ueok?> fOf another ~t
more tolerant generation was as inevitable as it c

South to ride into political power on an anti-Negro '
- I'lhfvnn, Thvn uroswHohe Smith. HardwicK. Vflr- i
daman, Ileflin and Cole L. Blease. These men by v
spectacular pronouncements poured oil upon the ^
hres of race prejudice and* that the South was saved 8
1 ''"in a destructive conflagration is a modern miracle _
Tillman waxed mighty and passed on and then his *
line began to fade. Tom Watson Hardwick, VaTda- ^
_ man, lleffin and Cile L. Blease all have been retired 2
by the very voters who placed them in positions
.of power. There is no more vivid illustration of a 1
changing attitude on the part of the white South 1
than their refusal to longer support by political t
sanction men whose only claim to political prefer- 1
ment was a rabid and nrnnnnncorl or>fi_\Ionrrn oOi. I
tude! The white South of today is demanding more <
of its statesmen and politicians. This may mean (
the breaking of a better day. The passing of this ^
line of "Negrophobists" is no proof that 'the fires *
of prejudice have ceased to burn in the South but *
it does inflammatory in nature. TTiis itself marks '
a subtle but certain advance in the matter of race
relations. *,." . ? ..A. 1
The Unemployment Conference
The second national unemployment conference of 1
the year is just ended at Washington- This writer 1
attended each session for two whole days. Men of <
great eminence were trying to devise ways and means J
of deliverance from our present economic debacle. '
?Everybody was evidenaly expecting a satisfactory J

program but in that, everybody must have been dis
appointed for there was no satisfactory program
presented.
A group from the conference conferred with a
committee of Congressmen in the Senate building.
The delegation was-cordially recieved and the Congressmen
did with the utmost fraukncss discru-s
with themselves seemetL-Ur -be n+ They are baffled
by transpiration and turn of events. In short
the second employment conference like the first wftt
mean no more than a picturesque presentation of
the major jjroblem of the nation. This may help
borne. The byproducts 01 the discussion are perhaps
the most important and two of the nSore important
are first, the almost unanimous belief that
our present economic plight is g.oing to be longdrawn
out and the drift of discussion assumed the
nirnanc* of mnnv of mi> nroioni (.nnaftimw
cond, that the Negro is bearing the burden ui his
unemployment in that he is unemployed out of all
proportions to his numbers. WhaJ. llTv tiisplacement
by whites is going on apace, and the black.
Shirt movement which arose in Georgia last year,
was apparently quelled as a movement but the spirit
is marching on. Nobody had any remedy for this
dangerous tendency. The speuketfa from almost
every cdty present told tragi?-- storiesvof conditions
among the Negroes. Those brilliant economists
from seventeen states set themselves to the serious
task of trying to find a way out. Not like some
of the so-called Negro leaders who want to "laugh
prosperity", and who call facing the inrlv facts.
"gloom," these meii and women faced the ugly facts
the remedies offered, First, there should be child
labor laws to keep out of industry children below
eighteen. This would mean a large field that adults
Could fill. Second, there should be old age pensions
provided for persons above sixty-five. These could
retire and make room for younger ' generations.
Third, unemployment insurance should secure those
between eighteen and sixty-five and times Ha
they could not secure employmentfthey could be supported
in comparative comfort,. Fourth, there
should be a shorter work day and a shorter work

concensus of opinion among the economists is iliiu
unomployment is a permanent phenomenon) a position
taken by this writer two years ago, who accordingly
urged the Negroes to "dig in" by holding
their jobs. And -they called him the "Gloom Dean."
