WHATS WRONG WITH CONGRESS?
Newspape»‘s, magazines, and radio com
mentators have been very busy the last
few days in analyzing the record on Presi
dent Truman's legislative program and
how it fared in Congress up to the time
that body recessed for Christmas The re
cord is a pretty gloomy one from the
President’s point of view, and equally
gloomy if President Tniman’s recommend
ations have represented the wishes of the
American people.
In the fii*st place, congress has been
very slow and dilatory about acting on
post-war domestic measures, wliether in
cluded in the President’s program or not.
Several issues on whi^!: truman urged
prompt action have 1 O' . and are being
treated very liesurely /• committee. The
fact that the Presideni fell that certain
legislation should be passed without delay
if it was to serve its purpose in speeding
up and smoothing out the process of re
conversion to peacetime living apparently
carried no weight with Congress. Of the
22 recommendations made by Truman
since Congress convened September 6 only
four have been acted upon.
In the second place, when Congr''ss
has actc.l, it has modified the Presidents
proposals so as to produce something
greatly different from what was asked
for, as in the case of the Full Kmployment
Dill. In the case of the United States Em
ployment Service Congress pointedly ig
nored the President’s request that it lie
continued under Federal control until
June of 1917, and tacked a rider onto an
other measure, the rider providing for the
return of the USBIS to the states early in
1946. The President answered this move
of Congress by tmexpectedly vetoing the
bill in order to kill the rider, adding a
sharply worded rebuke to Congress for us
ing such unfair tactics against a President
who has leaned over backward in trying
to be fair with Congress.
Time magazine contributes the follow
ing commentary on the Congressional-
executive situation:
premise of the oarly New Deal
d^s that Congress exists merely to echo
the executive's orders had long ago been
diitcarded. Congress has taken a healthy
interest in debate. But the methods of con-
troRing debate, of channeling and guid-
public medical and dental treatment which
will bring needed preventive and curative
services to all, regardless of financial
status?

ONE MORE BOOT
President Truman*s answer to Mr.
Hou.ston’s protest agiijinst the Pr sident’.-t
failure to back up tne KEPC’s directive
in the Washington tra^it case was a very
plain and emphatic one. lie simply tool:
away the agency’s power to issue any di
rectives at all. From Ihis point of view
that apparently solves the problem; but
it only further weakens the pr?sent FEPC.
P'urthorniore it givca aid and comfort to
the enemies of a permanent FEPC; f(».
the President’s action will be used as an
argument against the desirability of any
permanent FEPC at all, or for one whoso
function will be purely deliberative and
advisory, and without any powers that
have to be respected. The future of fair
employment legislation is at present veiy
dark. There will either be none onacteJ
by the pre.sent Cougr.sd, or if aiiy bill U
passed it will be the kind that puls nice
words on paper, but provide.s for no real
action.
In his order which ended the FEPC s
l)Ower to act in a concrete way President
Trumaj) also ordered Federal agencies to
end all racial discrimination in employ
ment shifts occasioned Ijy reconversio:i
and reorganization. That such an order
was needed is hardly to be que.sliono 1.
but the latter action does not make ;;p
for the President’s further sal>otaging oi
the FEPC. Nor does the President indi
cate by what methods he intend.> to see
that his order is to be . 'emented an
chocked on to insure that it will not b
evaded. The whole thing seems to be o:
a request ba.sis. It sounds good vrhe i
said; but how about seeing that w at s
ordered will be carried out?
The war is over. The nation is go;.i;\g

DON’T FORGET THE LIBRARY
Now that relaxation from the rush an:l

campaigners will redouble their efforts to
raise the $10,000 being sought for the
acquisition of a home for the Richard B.

the nomination; he .stoutly p^.-.,,
claimed his belief tnat 96 p'er

The Senator’s mathematics

THE WAY
Nineteen centuries after the liirth of Christ finds man at
the erus.sroads of human relations Despite the scientific advance,
particularly in the field of natural science, we find man resorting
to outmoded methods ih attempting to bring about peace a.id
goodwill. One jastifiably questions the “why” of progress on
the one hand and apparent stagnation on the other hand. Is
the groping, made evident by international chaos, something
which man can avert. Are the motives leading up to meetings,
such as they h.-ld in Moscow, rooted in principles of truth? Will
any good ever come of the meetings we are proned to rely upon
when the rift comes, There is little hop of our making significant
strid.=i in human affairs until we discover the inherent weakness
in our procedure. When the truism, weakness begets weakness,
is universally accepted fears, now common place, will no longer
bcgi-t strife that is culminated into world wide disorder. Good
can only come out of diplomatic meetings when the subordina
tion of individual wills is accomplished in the outset. Starting
from such a focal point will help us achieve our dc.sircd goals.
The W'-akness of the flesh. -Arhiie known, does not seem lo pro
duce suffici'mt evidence to warrani our abandonment of .son-.-
principles. We need to beuomc cognizant of the fact that world
peace and harmony dcpe-id upon the acceptance of another Way.
There arc those who look to Moscow for the establishment
of world where eternal peace and goodwill v/ill abide. They feel
that whatever is done, relative to the Atomic Bomb, will relieve
much of man's mental anguish. To them Molotov, Byrnes, and
Bevin arc a kin to U-mporal saviors of mankind. They forget
that each one of these individuals has a particular interest in
his country; these selfish interests completely overshadow sur
face interests of other countries. Does the sclf-appointd position
of leadership, Russia, England and the United States have assum
ed bestow upon them special abilities to manage*, alone, the af
fairs of all mankind? Will the little- nations look up to such
leadership as a kind of Providential Decree? It is doubted that
the satisfaction of certain selfish ambitions will meet the smiling
approval of the downtrodden peoples of the earth. Do you not
que.stinn the cau.(r of unrc.:t in India, in Java, and in our own
land where minorities have only a reading knowledge of de
mocracy? To lead successfully, Russia, England and the United
States must concern themselves relative to the problems of the
weak whose present state, in many instances, accounts for their
(Russia. England, and the United States) greatness.
Many ci-niurics ago Christ aomonished Thomas with this
irrefutable fact “I am the way,” etc. No conditions arc hinged
around the fact; the definiteness of the statement is obvious to
the most casual reader. Further we find the other part of the
utterance equally aa reassuring as the former — "the truth and
the liic.” Docs a statement have to be made plainer for the finite
mind to comprehend? As we go the way of the flesh, wo are not
mindful of our needless errings? Are we not willing to forsake
the paths of misery and distrust? There are many ways pursued
by man. From some of these pursuits happi.^ess is attained. As
he faces a crisis, unlike any other of recorded history, will he
continue to devise means of setting up a new world order, or
will he follow the simple plan laid down by Christ — "I am the
way.” Man is known to complicate the simple and get no where
as a result of his futile efforts. To those dreamers of a Utopian
'state, how long will you allow yourselves to be deceived by prom
ises made when the going gets rough and are abandoned when
rosy prospects appear? No equation equivalent to success becomes
a reality until "I am the way” becomes an acknowledged truth
and a practiced fact in the affairs of men.
In attempting to workout our many perplexing problems,
we would find that adherence to the Golden Rule is most neces
sary, Since we can't have a separate world for all races, why
not practice living together in peace and harmony in this one?
Its hard, but such a sttac !• practicable.

ing commentary on tho^Coiigiv.ssionai-
oxecutivo .'■-ituation:
‘i'Chc of. Iho oa'rly Now Dctnl
days that Congre.'^s exists merely to echo
the executive’s orders had long ago been
discarded. Congress has taken a healthy
interest in debate. But the methods of con
trolling debate, of channeling and guid
ing legislation, of bringing order out of
the normal Congressional chaos seemed
to have broken down. To many Congress
men frankly took the view that I!arr>
'Truman did not moan everything he said
and that therefore all his proposals did
not need serious attention. And in Con-
rcss itself the Democratic leadership, un
certain of its aims, had broken down, h
could be stopped or Ijeaten by almost any
coalition — and almost alwavs was.”
Now that relaxation from the rusli an I
preoccupation of Christmas is over ti e
campaigners will redouble their oiforts lo
raise the $10,000 being sought for the
acMiuisition of a home for the Richard B.
Harrison Library. The need is ob.ious.
Now is the time lo act. When the solicitor
approaches you, think of what an asset
the lil)i*ary lias lieen lo the community.
Remember that it is your library, in a
sense and to a deg'-ee very unusual in this
section of our country. Don’t forget ho'v
much the library needs the room for ex
pansion. And meet your i'espi)nsibilit>'
gladly and generously.
Most .\mci icans applauded the
p.ppoin;m-:nt, but not Senator
Bilbo. Not only did he oppose
the no.-nination; ho sioutW pi-9-._
claimed his belief tnat 98 per
cent "of my people in Mis-issip-
pi” wi uld approve his action.
The Senator’s mathematics
rni;;h'. stand a little scrutiny. In
■:e firs; plac. it ij qui;e po«si-
bir- that he- is not counting the
r ar’.y 50 per cent of the Mi»-
sissippian.s that are not while
ar- his p.ople at alh They don't
vot~. so naturally they don’t
n.attcT. Then there are all the
po' white hillbillies who don't
count because they don't pay anv
joiity in ia-t4. It is a..so tiu'
tiiat iMrs. Roo-S-velt has for yvars
been d.cidedly unpopular with
large pucjp-rs of southerners,
" doubt a fair share
01 MLssissippians. But it was no
ore nor less than an absuid
Bilboism to say that 93 p.r cent
01 -ven thos: Mississippians who
...u allowed to vote would sup
port Bilbo's opposition to Mr*-..
Roosevelt as a UNO delegati*.
There is probably nobody in th -
United States who knows that
bitter than Senator Bilbo,
“The Man" thrives on publici
ty. 'There i.'s no b'ttev way of
getting publicity than by being
pie of Mi'isis.'Jippi are like those
ol the rrsl of the country th.
Senator will be lucky if he ge s
the support of 51 per cent of the
voters.” (When he comes up for
reflection next year.) It is pos
sible that Bilbo may accumulate
enough asininitics of one kind
or another to turn chc majority
oi Mi.*;siss:ppi voters against him
by Mection time. His chivalrous
c.pposition to the appointment of
Mrs. Roo.sevelt may help. Or it
may not. Mississippi has stood
L lot from Bilbo and others. Mav-
bu they will take this last pe:-
fcrmance in stride, too. I would
n’t bet against it.

SOME QUESTIONS
In a Winston-Salem daily there appear

Brandon, city-county health department
dentist for Negro schools, to llie effect
that 90 per t-oiil of the children ho ex
amines have dental dofect.s, many of them
serious.
The existence of a public .service which
reveals such facts is a fine thing. Itut to
uncover the facts is not enough. Some
questions naturally arise wlien such in
formation is made public: \\ lie.l percent
age of the parents of fhe.se children will
know the .significance of the facts as to
their children's general health now and

Though some may not realize it Raleigh

A WORD OF COMMENDATION—
For three years Miss Jean Davis, Union Bus Terminal em
ployee in Charlotte, has done extra work, saved all her money
and has blown it away in one day. She gave oringes, apples
and nuts to patients in the Sanatorium. Such a spirit of giving
commands our respect, to the extent, that we reveal the fact to
you d“ar readers.
In our communiy Russell C. Caudill, aware of the destitution
of one Negro family here, solicited aid f am interested citizens
an dsucceedod in getting one hundred and fifty dollars. We are
indeed approciative of tho spirit which prompted Mr. Caudill to
aid this deserving Negro family. Docs such action arouse in us
a desire to heip others who are in dire need of the bare neces-
sitis of life?
Tne exemplification of the Christ spirit in thee these two
honevolent souls certainly should be classified as ‘must” action
today, if we arc lo behold the glowing reality of a better day.

In the well watered ‘erritory bc-

Nile and tho modem Suez Con.d
now known as Goshen In Egyp*.
Joseph, their leader was advisor to
Pharaoh and Prime Minister over
the lane* of Esypt. Here they pros
pered and multiplied. Now the
Pharaoh who knew Joseph died.
In subsequent years suspicion and
prejudice set up a chasm which
led to oppression of the weaker
nation or race; and strange to s.ay.
for more tha.-i a thotusand years
there have been outbursts here
and there of racial antagonism.s
of this group. Yet, in many cases,
the eppresed join in to help prac
tice this antagonism on other
races. Even though the people
were oppressed, they continued tc
multiply. Pharaoh ordered f*!!

leader received his name, the nec
essary training and the wisdom
which prepared him to later ac-
Lumplish his task. .\s leaders ol

ERRED
At the age of 40, Mcscs — an
educated man in all the arts and
sciences of an Egyptian Oovern-
ircut -- was fired with a zeal lo
rescue and b»-lng iustloe to his
people He found an Egyptian
beating one of his Hebrew breth-
rr I. with a whip; infuriated, he
struck the Egyptian a fatal blow
and hid h m in the sand The next
day he found twe of his brethern
fighting and as he separated them.

to them what he had done to thi-
•^gypt-an the day before. Moses'
-nnr «!»ch to a b;id situation caused
him to flee to the land of Midian.
: (':ses, like Jacob, went to a
itran.'c land where he married
and became a Shep! erd. During
thcFC years of loneliness and
while liberate his people. God
had a chance to again enter his
life.
AN OPPRESSED PEOPLE
CRY UNTO GOD
The statement that the prayers
of the righteous availcth much can
be justly applied here. Wc do not
.•lay that all of these pc-ople were
righteous, but there were some,
and G« d’.*! purposes cannot be
overthrown. Even today our Inter-
preafion of the meaning of Christ's
Coming into the work! — “I came
that ye mlgth have life and that
more abundantly." — Is applic.ible
to the oppressed people who are
now suffering. The individual,
race, or nation that deliberately,
maliciously and willfully oppresses
a nc-son or people* plants seeds
which will come up and damn the
oppresser far generations to come,
lei IIS beware!
A LEADER CALLED
Mount Horeb — out there in the
an of Midian. made famous by the
burning bush — has something to
tell all lovers of nature. If only
wc would stop and observe some
of the things nature teaches, may
be we. as did Moses, might realize
our dicam in a call from God.
There arc a few expre-ssions tn
Jehuvoh'f speech to Moses which
should make glad the hearts of
all men who truly seek Him: "My
people. . . “. . . have hUard
their cry and their sorrows and
I am come to deliver them." MoseL
now 30 years old pleads his In-
auility and raises a series of ob
jections. None of these carried
weight with God who in turn gave
hi mthree signs ol His assurance

It is intersting to read Chapter
4:18-3!. ani to note the contrast of
thts approach to that of 40 years
ago This time the organization of
the ciders of Israel and the train

esteem when Pharaoh and even
some of his own people rebel.
All grea; mnvoments for good
