DANGEROUS DOCTORS
The recent diagngitic clinic held at Lincoln hosj^ital la the third
which hag been spongored hy the Division of Cooperation in Educa^
tion and Race Relations in Durhaiil.' The CAROIJNA TIMEIS is
^*d to add its word of appreciation for the opportunity afforded
Negro* doctor* to attend these highly instructive gatharingf, and
w« iruit be-tw^ut niiuiimy as beneficial to all con
cerned
For some reason or another i'iegro doctor* In Durham
were not at the clinic with exactly a one hundred percent attea-
dance. Aa is usually the case aom^t^ of them were satisfied to
let^an opportunity go by to better their knowledge of ■th« profess
ion in which they are engaged. This should not be, and the patrons
of such doctors should inform themselves concerning the doctofB
who do graap such opportunities, and secure their lervicea when in
need of such instead of those Who are either too lazy or too shift
less to do further study in their profession.
The age in which we now live is one that calls for, speed ^ni
strenuous effort on the partthose who would keep abreast of
the times. New discov€Ej#» G science, medicine and others
fields of endeavor are taking plaae almost daily. Any doctor who
is satisfied to drag along with..tbs«i^.R>e 'methods of treating
various diseases of mankind is unfair to his patients, and a men-
aace to,the progress of the general health of his race and nation.
Teachers who fail to continue to improve themselves in their
field are soon dicarded. Those who have not had a certain amount
of training, are given certificalies accordingly: We believe the
health of a people is just as important as education, and suggest
that som£ step be taken toward rating doctors according to the
amount of time they are willing to spend in seeking new know
ledge of the profession in which they are engaged. '
As impressive as the argument against socialized medicine may
be, there k nothing that ia. going to endorse it more quickly than
an awakening of the genjeral public to the fact that some of their
doctors are holding up the traffic on a four lane highway with an
oxcart.

THC NEGRO AND THE JEW,
FAfcTNtRS IN DISTRISS
The Negro and the Jew
coastitute the unly racial minori

Christian nations on account t

perrtcution of the Armenian hr
a piece of villiany of which only
the unspeakable Turk was rap
able. When Chief Justice
Tanney guggssted that a: the
time of the establishment of the
American Constitution, the N>>gro
had no ri^ht wbicli a white man
was bound to respect. The dogmu
shocked the conscience ef the
nation and was repudiated at the
point of the sword as being re
pugnant to th$ principles
Christianity and the ideals of
Democracy. No one dared dream
that seventy years lattr the Eo^d
of a Christian nation would pro
claim '%y action which npcakb
louder than words that the Jew
from whom our Christian dis
pensation was derfVeJ had no
rights that the Geri|^an is bound
to respect. This partnershio >n
distress inevitably brings ..abou; a
fellow feeling between ■stfcose ^two
persecuted races. The Negio. is
persecuted because he patches
and masters hia persecutors in
various features of civilization.
By virtue of this enforced part
nership, the Jew will becoma tlie
natural leader of the backward
Negro in coiTilTnerce and busines'3
while the latter will furnish a
complacent constituency £ « r
business and trade. The Negro is

LOUISIANA BLACKNESS

We now have the spectacle of
a Negro leader beins openly
attacked in th« white press by
so high an official as 'S United

being vicious as to brand the
leader as "deceitful and dis
^onest.** We doubt seriously,
howerer, whether anybody , ni the
Negro group will come to t h e
defense of this leadM*, which
only goes to prove the typs of
leader he is. Ordinarily, no lead

ly att«cked by a white man,
hi|1i or lew, without Negroes
promptly rallying to the defense

this fall in 3% Negro colleges in
eight states by Dr. Paul Corne>
director of Student Hcaltn
Service of Howard university,

announced by Dean Numa Adams.
The' study is being sponsored
by the National' - Tuberculosii^
and the American Social
Hygiene association and Is belie
vedy by medical authorities to be
the first joint survey of its kind
ever undertaken among Ntigr^
Icotlege students. Last winter,
the National Tuberculosis assoc !a
tion sponsored a survey of the
health and medical programs of
Negro colleges in ten states ly
Dr. Comely, who concentrnted
particularly on tuberculosis.
It is ho>ed that as a Teeul'. of
Dr. Cornely’s survey a prdgi-am
will be sel in motion to reach
ultimately about 40,00:0 N«.‘gio
students.' Health auihoritiee
believe that many of the^ studi
ente eventually will become
into their future profession and
to their f^iture students up to
the minute information on these
vital health preblems.
Dr. Cornely’s itinerary will
take him to Hiasoari, Oklahoma,
Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Miss.
Florida and Georgia. His first
step will be at Stowe Teadkers
