Telephone 4523 Saturday, March 1. 1941 THE STATUS OF THFr^-^^ NEGRO TEACHERS Negro teachers in South Caro lina are asking for equal salaries and eight months school term. These demands are, just ana right. Negro teachers contribute much to the general welfare of the state. * ?hp.lieve that there is a bet cer day- ahead for all teache.rs. Legislation, for one group 'frill . - help all teachers in our schools. There are 5,600 Negro teache*in South Carolina and not 1,000 01 these teachers have their regis ration .certificates. As a whole Negro teachers are not voting-citizens and the man without a ballot regardless of his college de Int.. in n/itVmnf value, in -the body politic. Whatever the white man does in the legislature or other wise to help the Negro race is done largely because of the sym pathy- he ha$-for the race. The man without the ballot, regardless " "Pf his 'COHl'ge 'degrees, is much as a political aisset. "THE VALUt OP A MAN" Bishop Monroe H. Davis of Baltimore, one of the keyri<5te"lipebk^ ers at the statewide reception hon oring Bishop J. S. Flipper iri' A1 len university Monday night de clared the value of a man is.es timated by. the amount of brain? and muscle1,he is able to put into his work arid also, it depends upon whose hands he falls into while in the making. In this; the bishop "has something." The hand? into which a man falls- serves-eith v,;0 i^,-?*;? ? ? i? >. v- 4 in ii in cic^awun ui a acirunun to his success. The former i 's more likely to happen than the latter. The philosophy of his address was that he went to fame because he fell into the hands of the Senior Bishop of the A. M. E. church, was?advised to "go ahead"; he "" went ahead and was elected a hlshop in his church on the first ballot with a flattering vote. Many distinguished men and women paid honor to Bishop Flip ?..,..rtrl hinKi-.p Af spiring them to go to highei heights after they had fallen?"in to his hands". . WHAT HISTORY TKAfHRQ By Dr. Charles Stelzle Practically everything that is happening to us today hapened to others in some form thousand? of years agv>?according to the archeologistfl Who found the re cords on clay tablets, baked 5,000 years ago. or to the historians who began to Wn|e some 2500 year# lat They tell us about sit-down strikes, hours of labor, salary bon uses, collective bargaining, eost of living, old-age pensions, .silver standards, crooked politicians, womeit*? rights, and in the Bible itSelf we have the even years of plenty, and seven vears of depression with "brealines" and ? "food commissioner." During all of these experiences panaceas .war* xuggtfstad tg mceJ the problems pf the times. Some of th?m worked out. but many failed. It's a strange thing that some ddluded leaders are today pfferinp the same old quack rem ?t v .? 1 " ... * ;dieB that, were tried and failed n the days when they had to be written with pointed sticks mjtead of with typewriters. But it is still more remarkable that plans and principles which proved to be basically sound are jeing disregarded today. We have earned that dictatorships and au trocracjes are not conducive to the freedom and happiness of the whole people; that the character oi * nation's greatness is determinee y the character of its individua .itizens; that no question is eveJ settled permanently except upor the basis of justice; that righl human relationships are more im portant thtfh thejcreation of grea organizations; that the source o: ha_ppiness depends not so much upon what W? have as it does upoi what we "-a re. These and many c^lTer thing; which history has taught us ma; ^ nppliaH to problems faring n; today. They may be applied t< personal relations, to the l^oi problems, to national questions and to international affairs. There fore, let's stop looking for shor euiH-and }>aten.t-reriiediej;.
