THE STUDENT ASSEMBLY
The fact that the studenls of white col
leges makinjf up the menil^iTship of Norfu
Carolina’s Student Assemldy voted two to
one to invite representatives of the Ne;'’’o
collepres to next yeai’s session of the As-
semhly is far more Important than is the
fact that Secretary of Stale Thad Eure
would not have had it done, had it been
left to him. The students belong to the
future of North Carolina and the South,
and their reaction indicates a trend, whi.a
that of Mr. Eure r*presmts the status
quo; the cautiou.s, conservative approach-
As lonjf as the younjrer jreneralion is will
ing to face social issues and moral obli
gations scjuarely, the pro.spects for the
future are good.
The students used the refreshing pro
cedure of facing a problem on its merits.
They were undeteiux^d not only by the
representations of Mi- Piure, but by any
other considerations except the point at
issue; 1. c.. Why should students who han
pen to be Negro student.H be ‘xcluded from
an important student irganization who-jo
w ■i..!'--"o-’C'-’-n is with understanding prob-
j,'n • .• h.ch affect and are the concern of
all lie jjeeph'? Tliey did not bow to the
- ; cows, or flinch from the paper
di;- i wMch are so awesome to many
o! th. i‘ ciders, white and black.
y.T ill will come of the action of the
Sruiit •!« .\ssombly. On the other hand a
gi'*. d'-al of good may result. The fine
ex.trnnie they have set their elders may be
o:u of the greate.st of these goods.
A MATTER FOR CONCERN
Aren.i;’ '!; to the daily press seven of
tne oigiji ju rsons in State Prison condemn
ed to death and awaiting the result of
their .appeals to the Supreme Court are
Nogioes. This fact should furnish food
f«u- thought to every Negro citizen in
North Carolina: for it means that either
o :]• )) oplc are far more criminal than
u hite citizenry, or that the machinery
^f justice is biased, or both. Whichever of
fieso alternatives is true, it offers a chai-
iiMige not only to the law enforcement of-
and the community as a whole, but
Miiocially to the law-abiding Negroes of
North Carolina; for it means that either
o . oplc are far more criminal than
V hite citizenry, or that the machinery
ff bjstice is biased, or both. Whichever of
■» alternatives is true, it offers a chal-
b- .ge not only lo the law enforcement of-
and the community as a whole, but
especially to the law-abiding Negroes of
our state.
THE LIBRARY CAMPAIGN
Th* campaign to raise $10,000 for a
p' i inai.' at, liljrary-owned honio for the
Rkaard B. Ilairison Library has begun,
and already gilts are being received. Be
fore P’ebruary 1, the date set for the
reaching of the goal, the relatively small
Si m of $10,000 should be oversubscribed.
."he call to assist the ftichard B. Har
rison Libraiy should make a strong appeal
to tP»e citizens of Raleigh and Wake
County. Its great ser\-jce, and the rate
at which that .sendee has grown, amply
justify the project to secure enlarged and
Sf'if-iiuned quartei*s. Any public institu
tion which has so commended itself to its
coii.'jtituency that in ten years it has out-
grov. n (juarters which were originally big
eiiniigli for it to rattle around in, has ev*
er^' reason to be supported in a public
campaign for enlarged and permanent
qi'artGrs.
It may be w'oith while to recall two
fac.13. One is that the operating revenue
of ihc library is derived from public funds.
As is entirely jiroper the Negro citizens
have not been called on, nor are they be
ing asked now, to support the library di
rr.ctly out of their own pockets. Nor is
reason to doubt that the purchase
of a library site will be as.'^isted by public
funds.

The second fact is that the Richard B.
Harrison library is not a branch of the
other city libniiy. or any other library, for
that matter. It i.s a library for Negroes,
nianaged l)y a bi-racial board and adinini
stored by Negroes, with city and county
financial ^support. In this re.spect it I.s an
unt-fjmmon instifition: and forthts reason
it may appeal to all the citizens, and c.?-
pecially lo the Negro citizens, for hearty
support in this campaign.
“BUY CHRISTMAS SEALS'*
There is hardly an annual campaign
that needs publicity as little as does the
Tuberculosis Christmas Seal sale, .so well
known is it to the American people. To
millions the little stamps are as much a
part of the Christmas season as are holly
and carols and frenzied list-making and
shopping. But for fear tiiere may be some
one who ha.s forgotten, it may be said
again that everyone ought to buy the seaL
the sale of which furnishes so much of
the money for the nationwide fight against
tuberculosis. The fight is slowly and grad
ually going our way, but we are not far
enough ahead to afford a let-up.
I*arlicularly should Negroes feel the re
sponsibility for promoting in whatever
way they can the campaign again.st lu-
borculo.sis. It is .still one of the three or
four leading killei-s of our people, and the
facilities fo- combatting it among Negroo.s
are still far too meager.
In Raleigh a tew public-spirited persons
are intensely interested in the anti-tuber
culosis work. Kor several years Mrs. Nan
Frazier has efficiently led the seal sale
campaign among our group. She and her
co-workers deserve our full support.
POOR FEPC
The situation regarding the FEPC, al
ready bad enough, is detorioraling. (’on-
gross has done J’othing toward pulling ,i
on a permanent basis, despite President
Truman’s recommendations to that effect
and Congress had already failed lo pro
vide for the continued existence of the
agency as an emergency wartime bureau.
The personnel has been reduced, because
of the failure of Congress to provide foi-
it in a regular way in the budget.

resignation f»*om the Committee. President

agency as an emergency wartime bureau.
The personnel has been reduced, because
cf the failure of Congress to provide for
it in a regular way in the budget.
Now. as revealed by Attorney Houston
in the statement which accompanied hi.'
resignation from the Committee. President
Truman himself not only failed to back
up the F'EPC’s directive in the Washing
ton transit case, but actually stymied the
Committee’s action already taken.
Whatever else Truman’s action may
mean, whatever the reason for his stand.
Congress and the nation will interpret
his previous recommendations about the
FEPC as lip sQivicc, prompted by a son.w
of duty, and po.ssibly by sincere personal
wishes, but not to be backed up by any
po.sitive stand in a concrete situation. The
w'hole thing ntw appears to be on a pr-
litical basis, rather than on the basis of
statesmanship.
That the President’s action, or inaction,
.should have been associated specificaPi
with a case arising in the nation’s capital,
is e.specialiy unfortunat . That Washing
ton is a southern city helps to explain his
attitude, but does not justify it, or relieve
him of his re.sponsibility as chief execa
live of the United States.
NEGRO DEMOCRATS VOTE IN GA.
According to an ANP dispatch hundreds
of Negroes voted in the Democratic prim-
arj' in Athens, Ga. It was the first time
in -10 years that Negroes had taken p.irt
in a primary in that section. The clerk re
ported that 75 per cent of the 500 Negm
registrants voted. The skies did not fall
it is understood; in fact election day wa
"without incident."
The .story told b3’ the despatch goe;
on to say that a few days before the elec
tion the Clarke County Democratic execu
tive committee voted nine to one to com
ply with the ruling of U. S. District Court
Judge Davis in Geoigia that Negroes coul t
not legally be barred from the Democratic
primary. The rest of Georgia and the
South will fall in line. In some places
w'ill De done gracefuhy, in - thers it will
be much harder. But in the end it will
happen everywhere.

true that comparatively the Ne

SOUTH ::arolina secedes again
Seccssionism still survives in South Carolina. The Palmet’o
state was the very first -to si-cedc from the Union in the 1860's.
But in 1945 South Carolina is thiealening to secede again and
thi.« time not from the Union but from me old traditional “keeo-
Ihe-Negro-down” south. Report's h^ve it that there are white'South
Carolinians who are not only supporting the Negro’s contention
for his rights to vote but who accompany Negroes to the ballot bo*
to see that nothing is done to circurr 'ent this right
When white southerners are so determined that Negroes shall
vote thill they are willing to go with them to the ballot box, we
arc witnt's.sing “strange things today.” That those white southern
ers are South Carolinians is one of the moral miracles of the 20th
century. As we were informed some months ago, these same South
Carolinians favored letting Negroes vote in the primary: this same
group met and madt- a statement in rebuttal to the shameful legu'-
iative attempts to thwart the Negrr’s rightful contention for polit
ical participation. Now these same whites are so determined that
justice shall be accorded Negroes in their rightful attempts to
exercise their rights of suffrage that they accompany Negroes
to the ballot box.
Intcrracialism is reaching a new high in constructive action
W'hcn it assumes the proportions and momentum now manifest n
South Carolina. Things are stirring in the south and although the
short time pros{>ects leave abundant room for hope. These latter
day secessionists in South Carolina are the hope of the south and
the nation. Without thorn the Negro is lost; and then the nation!
It must be kept definitely in mind that the fight for justice
for the Negro is not a fight merely for the Negro. It is a fight for
the south and nation. Long live these latter day secessionists in
South Carolina! May their numbers increase. This secessionism is a
I'cdemptionust movement calculated to save the moral face of the
south no !es.s tnan its heart
LITTLE BY LITTLE
Little by little Negroes are advancing in their legitimate
aspirations toward full integration into the body politic of this
nation. Little by little those forces designed to thwart these as
pirations are weakening while those favoring these aspiration are
strengthening. It w'ould wreck civilization and democracy to per
manently subjugate the Negroes in the United States or the Indians
in India. The subjugating nations are strictly on the defensive and
it is only a matte,- of time and their position will be untenable.
Britain Ls still fighting. Britain dares not cease fight-lng.
Fighting is the life blood of the far-fiung British empire. But fight
ing will in time destroy Britain and if she does not fight, rapid
disintegration will set in and final dissolution will become inevit
able.
Once the United SUtes can boconvinced that we are no
longer justified in fighting Britain's imperialistic wars, Britain’s
strangle hold on India and Ireland and China will be broken for
ever. The sooner the British empire disintegrates, the sooner will
appear prospects of lasting peace. There is no way at present
to stave off war if Britain is to keep intact her vast empire. But
unfortunately the handwriting is now upon the wall, and even the
most dull-eyed Britons can read it. Imperialism is a form of iso
lationism and the survival of mankind depends upon the abolish
ment of isolationism, Little by little forces of abolishment are at
work just as little by little forces are at work for Negro liberation
here and elsewhere.
The Negro athle te symbolizes the underlying spirit of the na
tion. Little by little these Negro athletes are coming into their own.
Joe Louis has probably eontributtd as much to improved race
relations as any Negro of this generation. He is the greatest symbol
of interracialism. His success has been of the interracial kind,
but there would have been no success had he not wrrought it with
those ‘‘million dollar mauls” which we call fiats. Now comes

The Responsibility Of Victory
i est i'erfiet.
By W. L. GBEENE
One of the w’orst things that
could passibly happen lo tk.c*
joulh of North Carolina would

nctiviti's. The time has «:om. lor

opportunity commensurate wi’.n
ti.t'ir understanding of public af-
faii-s.
Fi.ar and economic pressuie
};avo dictated the courstJ of ac
tion of over ninety per cent of
tiur current leaders. It has been
u common thing to hear th“
fnihi rs of our euircnf corps of
educational loader.-- say. “WVve
got to fool the white folks lo get
anyhting out of them.” For a
time some of the white folks
veere inoKd. Thu ilattery and
undeserved piatse heaped upon
ti.c holders of public purine
sirmgs was nUasani to tne car
and elevating to the ego. Even
alter the truth became known.
white loiks were inclined lo
enjoy the songs of praises ever
given them by grateful retain
ers. All this was good in its
time. All of this time is not yet
passed but the sun of that day
L low on the horizon of human
affairs. Today is the dt. of sci
entific fact and philosophical
truth. Gone is the day of tra
ditional make-believe and fanci
ful rationalization of popular er
ror. The issues of World War 11
demonstrated clearly the 11s
of hypocrisy into which \. are
about to fall. The same error
which made the regimes of Hit

ly the way of life for tcnj many
American “blind” who can’t see
iieyoi. 1 the film of popular pre
judice which make's them seem
to themselves to belong to a
superior race.
The students of North Caro
lina are not moving too fast. Anv
motion, even in the physical
sense, must overcome inertia;
most of the motion must over
come friction: but in this day
of "necessary” change there
must be forward motion against
the braking efefet of tradition-
clist conservatism and social
inertia.
Some of us who saw the need
fur pressing forward toward
n.ore and more opportunity for
the lower caste Americans in the
war effort were called potential
traitors. Those who would dLx-
i-ourage the students trying o
ppply scientific knowledge to
the improvement of human re
lations will be recorded in his
tory as traitors to the new world
which is certainly “a coming."

“The responsibility of victorv."
At first hearing that sounds like
one of the catch phrases adopted
fcv the campaign orators, a phr^e
t' at rolls so easily from the bps
U.ai we o\2rkok its meaning.
But it is very much more than
that. The responsibility of victory
ntans that upon the victor lies
tuc twin burden of making anl
keeping the peace.
The victor not only has the task
of cleaning up the rubble of war,
hut of buiWing anew. To this task
tnc victor must apply the same
selfless devo* m to a cause that
he applied in war. To this end h-3
must drive through obstacles —
once making sure what he
Is after. He mu.n not be swayed
by personal inclination nor pre
judices.
The responsibility of victory
must be above revenge. Hatred
cannot solve me problems of
peace. A way must be found for
notions to live together in amity.
The victor must act with justice,
not a. jyed by maudlin sympathy
nor by personal prejudice — but
clearly, coolly, fairly and with an
eye to the future.
The responsibility of victory de--
j ands clear minds — full know
ledge of why and what wo have
feught, how we have won and
what we must do to prevent the
ret arrence of man-made tyraimy
ar- aggression — not in our life
time but for all time.
Our long time responsibility is
the well being of men. Onely a*
\vt, the victors, build a strong new
v/crld in which men are free w»
live as Individuals with the Four
Freedoms brought into active use
fc'HTywhere, can any man be free
anywhere.
Our rt«p»onsibilily in the vic-
t'-ry has still another and great
er facet. As Mr. Wallace so ably
slated it, ‘ Now the war is ov?r.
the central fact is hunger — lAy-
sicsl and spiritual hung'.T. But
even more important in the ’ong
run than physical food is the ipir-
itual food represented by genuine
dt-mocracy.”
It is now up to us to show to
the people of all the earth, how
universal is our democracy and
how, as it acted as one to fight
the battles of war. so will it act
as one ic win the battles of peace.
There are 1,700.000 boys and girls
in U. S. 4-H clubs and more than
90 thousand of them are in North
Carolina.

Both writers were certain of Christ

certain that he stated his declara-

though it was more than seven

born. It is interesting to note
God'.s love and faith in men and
rations frem the beginning. He
tried Abraham, Isaac. Jacob.
Moses — the Kingdoms — the
Bitb-.lonian and Roman Empire.
During all these years despite the
prophets warnings and God’s pa
tience the people still walked in
■--^rkness It is natural to ask why?
There can be but one an.swer. Fail
ure to Exalt Christ, No Christ
wa.s not born then but their dis
obedience of God’s mes-sengers
was the same as If he had been.
It should be of God's mcssengeis
was the s-ame as if He had been.
It should be noted that the Re-
■i' -nir. official-- — especially the
Phamsees — had a form of God
liness. but their hearts were far
from God. As we look at the key
veise there are given reasons why
we should exact the c*’ilri uf whim
Isaiah wrote: 1. Wonuerful. He is
wundcrful in his birth, as a teacher
In his death, resurrection; 2. Coun-
scllar who ever seeks and abides
by His Counsel is on the safe side

our peace only when He Is en

stood In dire need of a Savior
when the angels sang Glory to
God and on earto peace. A few
people accepted Him then and be
gan exalting His name abo«’e
every other name. They suffered
— some died, but they, the few,
won more converts who in turn
established His churth ar.d dawn
through the ages the Christian
Church has been holding high the
banner ct the Cross telling men
to kok and live, and men have
looked and they have lived.
It is true men have exalted
themrclves and have at times left
Christ out of the picture and
whenever and wherever that has
happened men and nations have
gone down. And whciever Christ
has been exalted others have been
bi ught to sec the Pght. “I, if I
be lifted from the earth, will draw
all men unto me." Jno. 12:32. At
this parliular lime this lesson
shculd certainly be heeded by us.
Then wc think of what happened
to those who exalted themselves

such ‘Jaughtering of lives and suf
ferings cf untold millions of all
nations of the earth — its time to
pau.se and take stocic of how and
