"Of Public Welfare"*^ 'Jo At its meeting on January 8, 1941, the South Carolina Board of ^ Public Welfare formally adopted Hai and made public the following the atatement: Nal !y Reviewing the work done by, ndr State and County Departments of No] Public Welfa*e during the past La> three and - one-half years, the A1 Boa-d wishes to express its-high sch rpp-oval of both the quantity and the quality of the work done, and of its gratitude to Mr. Daniel, the Pet State Djrector, his entire staff, W. and ^ft!*p*'county unit. County res Boards and staffs have been most a r cooperative, and effective in car- to rying out their functions, and to deri overlook any worker in the De- Pri partment jvyould "be doing"^jcssathan * " Justice'."* " r ibb-**1 -v dF-" * ' mo The Board also wishes to ap- nat peal to the entire public, and par- po\ ticularly to the members of the olo incoming uenerai Assembly, to the take the broader view of the pub- con lie welfare program, and to look tut upon it for what it really is*, ty onmely, an effort to provide?'* , better way of life for all?a so- XT ?ult'lv Mi which tlm mure fortunate members are privileged to make ani definite and impartial provision - to prevent actual want on the mh part of those who are less fortu- we> nate but who have an equal u't right with all to the means?of- -8? subsistence. ?ei on None of-us, so long as we have in anything to share, would alloAj ton our next-door?or our back-dooi 194 neighbor?to suffer actual want mcre.y because our budget would of not balance, particularly if that ful neighbor is in desperate need be- wh cause of old age, blindness, or mo other physical handicap, or is a er widowed mother struggling t o noi give her fatherless children a An chance to become normal citizens. ' It is our confident belief that the fer public and the General Assembly bes will willingly make provision for oti these needy neighbors of us all, of once the pitiful fact of their des- pla pernte need is fully understood. en< One of the important duties im- 25( posed by law upon the iDepart- ga men', of Public Welfare is to de- for termine that need by careful im- wa partial- investigation, according to .-rstr.ndards which are uniform | rui mrougnout the state, and to pre- c ' P sent the facts to the"'public and So the General Assembly. This duty un: it has performed, we believe, in a so manner that merits the hearty ap as proval not only of this Board but > aof the entire citizenship of the th( state. It was a tremendous un- sis dertrjdng to set up and get into ed smooth operation an organization tri of this type, and the task has isli constantly , become heavier and bel more complex by reason of the' its many services demanded of the: ch; Department of Public Welfare j ter which no one could anticipate and to |fl^ which were not imposed upon it am Wj by law. Among the more inipor ( bel ' tant of these services, which State ( rai and County Departments have va: faithfully endeavored to perform | un ?rfmy~ be^mentioned the selection oi tei CCC boys, distribution of surplus' po commodities, including the rapid | ly expanding school lunch" and I food stamp programs, csrtifica-K10 tion of applicants, for.free treat-1 the ment of cancer, certification of, it annlirnnta f nv WP4 tn\ -> ". ? vi.iKi?jnHtui,, j securing and furnishing informa- &r< tion to. local Selective Service en Boards in cases involving depen- fci dency of men selected for mili- Bo tary training, and many others, j he The Beard feels justified in .as- i be! suming that the variety and ex-1 he, 1 tent of such services requested of: am the Department of Public Welfare, a indicate public recognition of ef \vi ficient performance * by the De- J a partment of its legally imposed hai .t BUI .1 ft I : U7!i VV 11 jBRI and buy 1 Guignarc 1 4 WOR 1 Phone 5261 > Col IAMPTON SPONSORS 15th IUILDERS' CONFERENCE jational Association o meet in february ' s Hampton Institute, Va.?Repre- ?1 entative Negro builders from the * ntire eastern seaboard section ot h he United States have been in- a ited to attend the 15th Hampton iuilders' Conference at Hampton s nstitute, Hampton, Virginia, on F February 10, 11 and 12.

The first Hampton Builders' ' Conference was held in January ? L923.

William Morrow and company. In beginning hi* narrative, Mr Hullinger almost frightens us with the bold statement that: "The Negro race in America" i? still to a great extent a farming people, its fate depending on what happens in the fields ,of this country and to the crops that conn from them.'- He points out ?thc important and yet precarious posi tion the American Negro occupies He- makes one wonder just what would happen to the Americar Negro if the' "agricultural door' of opportunity should be sudden ly closed to him. and this ques tion arises, "Are there enough other occupations to sustain inn should .farming be taken awaj from the Negro " Of course. th? writer intimates that the Ameri can Negro is safe:guurded in tha the Natton depends so largely ui him for "the production of its ma jor crops-Miotton and tobacco There is^? slight indication, how ever, that the author inininn?F; (he part which FRe Negro -playi in other occupations in order t< bring to the forefront?w+rrrt hp does dn Agricultural It is ahvay: difficult to characterize one grouj of people where they are so close ly associated with^ another group without m?kin^~comparisons. Th factrcalhnot be overlooked that th problems of Negroes in Agricul ture, as described by the writei are primarily problems of whit farmers as well; and therefor* problems of the region. The author infers that more and more leaders of thought' ar coming to realize that the time i past when America can remain in different .when any group of it citizens is being' neglected. The writer touches lightly 01 migration of Negroes from rura areas to urban centers, and fror South to North. In the past fio years, mass move~ment of Negr farmers has become a seriou problem. Of course, there ar very definite causes for such mov fluents?both economic and socic logical. Despite this rapid trail sition, the parent Negro s?oc still remains in the Deep South and whether or not we are willin to admit - it, the southern Negr determines very largely the atti tude of the white man toward th Negro in America. The recent depression prove* that all farmers, including Negro es, needed more than mere fnvm al instruction and inspirations guidance. Hence, the new actio agencies created by the Unite; States Department of Agrieultur now engaged in rehabilitating a almost hopeless mass of peopU Here Henry A. Wallace might b termed "the modern Joseph," wh set in motion these new agencie to bring about national reeoverj The Movable School -of Agricul ture and Home Economics is de scribed as a unique type of teach ing backward people, and certain ly the most effective way of reaci ing unlettered individuals, Book er T. Washington being-given crei it for the idea, along with th Negro Farmers' Conference am the National Negro Health Week The writer "X-rayed" the Ne gro situation in agriculture an< "spotlighted" the work of the Ce; sus Bureau by telling what Ne groes are doing and the part the; play in national agriculture. H tells how many Negroes are still after 75 <years of freedom, at th bottom of the economic ladderas well as pointing out those wh have attained a measure of ec? nomic freedom. He wisely cred its philanthropy with the progres of the Negro since emancipation along with public aid. He put: his finger on the vitally "sore' spots affecting the rural Negr< when he says "Chief among thi evils which the pogr man on thi farm?small owner, tennnt or la borer?has 'tb face are poor hous ing, high mortality, insecurity an< debt," and he feels that no othe; problem recently aggravated b} agency can reach this disma the depression, except the Fed eral Govrnment. The book is profusely illustrat ed *and contains much valuable factual data that?could?hr?nT useful as supplementary readinf material for schools. However it seems that legends to the pic tures would h&ve made them move effective. It is pleasing to note that thi author made liberal use of re. ports of Negro Extension Agent; fronr the Southern Region. In citing notable achievements the author concludes that: Given a chance, the Negro wil carry his portion of the Nation'; agricutural j load.?T. M.
