THE COLD WAR AND THE NEGRO
7* BX DICK JARRETT FOE ANT
When it rams in the city, the
umbrella companies and cleaners
do excellent business. When many
persons of our populations were
suffering from the Asiatic flu, the
drug companies were making a
real killing; What is bad for one
may be good for another. The
■ Negro, due to his economic and
social status is affected by condi
tions differently than those who
are more fortunate. How is the
Negro affected 'ey the cold war?
Russia and the U. S. are at grips
with each other in a struggle for
world supremacy. There is a cold
war being fought with weapons of
propaganda, psychology, economic
penetration, scientific advances and
everything else short of general
Avar. The attempt of each nation is
to secure allies and coi miitments

in case there is a gem-rai war.
Hew do these conditions affect
the Negro, differently from others.
Tire Negro will gain economically
and socially in America *nd loss in
another aspect.
The Negro will gab.' socially
and economically because of
the American’s belief in the
American Creed. This creed is
centered in the belief of equa
lity and right of liberty for
others. This doctrine of equali
ty and liberty is the Creed A
mericans ar§ trying to seii tc
the world. Because Negroes
hare not been given these
rights, and the U. S. is a world
leader, the U- S, is confronted
with a moral problem which
has the center of attention on
the stage. The U, S. cannot con
tinue to preach one thing and
do another and gain allies. She
will be forced iu practice wbai
sthe preaches.
Consequently, because of this sit
uation, Negroes will gain socially
and so sliat the U. S,
will look good to the world. How
ever, in one aspect the Negro will
lose because of the cold war, main
ly psychological.
The Negro is not a superrasa. Ka
is a man with emotion*, heart,
blood, veins and subject to death
if someone shoots him with s bul
let in the head.
The cold war has produced in
Americans an insecurity and con
sequent anxiety. This anxiety has
developed into mental and physi
cal breakdowns in many persons.
The Negro will also conaet the
symptoms of insecurity and ex
treme frustration which are the
results of the cold war between
Russia and America.
Because the U. S. must practice
what they preach, that is, liberty
and equality for all, Negroes will
achieve some social and economic
j’advancement because o? the cold
I War, that is anxiety, with its. re
sultant effect of psychoses and
neuroses.

Emotion And Weeping:
Drying IsAWcman’s Prerogative
Crying, like charging one’s mind, [
is called a woman’s prerogative, j
When tears spill from the eyes of
a man, he blames smog or smoke, j
When it happens to a small boy,
his pride suffers because he wants j
to be a “man!”
Only the feminine weeper can
boo-hoc openly. Bui what starts her '
tears flowing is as baffling as \\ hat.
changes her mind. Hurt or happy,
sentimental or sad, she can sob.
Such contrasts nr emotion may
show that weeping has little to do
with emotion.
Science explains that crying
5n an adult, like laughing and
smiling, is so hound up with
the social reactions of the in
dividual that it often ix impos
sible to determine whether the
response is truly emotional, on •
!y partly so or totally devoid
of emotion. Social reactions,
like party manners, can he
habit-forming. A kiss, for ex
ample, may raffle the emotions
no more than a handshake, or
—depending on the individual
—quite the opposite;
But whatever emotional differ
ences stand between man and wo
man, none distinguishes the r.-.'le

ing to researchers for the Mu Hue '

to be able to see. It is nature’s own !

located just beneath the outer bony '
