We speak of ?t as thoug it were a blueprint of some intr ? cate machine, turning out article with precisbn, alike to the shac ing of a hair. f-' ' But democracy is not'n" blffi print of a machine?pot even machine in the politic..! ?s?nse. Dt mocracy is a way of life whic stems from the individual. It i the method by which he learns t live amicably with his neighbo It is the formula which civilize and free people have found 11105 useful in working out the grcr problem of human relations. Democracy being a way and 11c an arbitrary law has fhnvg-= ma n of them. But those mistakes ai man made and can be correcte by the will of the majority. Whu rights the majority have, can b _____ retained by them only if they al low the same rights^4o the minor! ty. Because the majority want free speech, they must allow i i-. to the minority. The right of argu ment and conversion i* opns to th minority and majority alike. Democracy is the way of revo lution by evolution. It took man; years for democracy to overthrow the slavery of man - but Hs fina doom was sealed when the decisioi was first made to follow the tie mocratic way. The Emancipntioi Proclamation was the inevitabl result of the Declaration of Iiuk> penlenee. Democracy is the ONLY way ti overcome the slavery of want the slavery of ignorance, the slav ery of discrimination. We i:m?v that the solution will be found for democracy depends upon tin " will uf all?the people, ami that t; but the will and the courage o many individuals.? Democracy ' Is the way of ac tion.

His prnver ior larg- I er opportunity is being answered j .?t long last. There are two things the Xegrc must tin and the- tirst is to save { seme money. I put \\ bluntly 01 | otirposc. Nobody ?an toll wlutl ..ill come fuiTn at the eonclusior .?_ current hostilities. If tin srioe determination to keep the Negro out of the picture is directed at throwing him for a loss when tire war ends, we are in-fot a hittrr-ytvug'-'le to hold our gains, In any event the Negro is going I to need some of the easy money 1 that jy passing around, it is true we ci nnot sate it all; but it is equally trgt^ that it would be unwise to spend it all.

That j the Negro must m?lgp hotter than j others to hold his given place is a deplorable fact, a disheartening I fact at times but withal a persis?tent fact. We. must face it.
