America and Rus sia, considered the world's most powerful nations, are constantly at each other ’s throat in a w. r of diplomacy which threatens to at anytime turn into a real hut war. Here in the States we are torn between whether or not to grant ALL citizens the use of a free bal lot, equality in education, the chance at a job based on skill, the right to live where one pleases so long as he remains civil: and the unfettered enjoyment of ALL privileges and responsibilities citi zenship regardless of race. Here in the south, most Negroes* principal victims of this racial blight - have not the guts to stand up and be counted in the fight to erase this terse from the American scene so that our nations will be come - In reality - “The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave,” a democracy indiviible in practice as well in theory. These colored timid souls could soon dispell their fear of exercis ing the rights of first-class citizen ship if they'd just get out and vote and teach others to do so Tor those haven't the courage to travel und er the banner of the NAACP as real fighters, voting is the only al ternative to being a first-clo« ci tizen, And how can any Negro bold his head up if he or she do<>< not do one of the two as we battle this herculean monster of segrega tion and discrimination in the mat ter of Jiviofr and with a” people?

WILLIAMS NEW INBORDEN HI J'REXY ENFIELD -- A cloud of mys tery seems to surround the mid year release of Aaron F. Wilder from his pvincipalshiu of the T. 8.

Southerners fear - anti unduly so - that with the advent of inte gration they may be in for unre strained competition where ids own women are involved. Wc should only need to remind him that In the north and wni w}ier>> social integration Is permissive and practiced with dignity, there has not been an avalanche of colored males marrying blond females. Admittedly, Negro males, not un like their white brothers, when in an unrestricted area, sometimes ‘go a-huntlng’ because men £re men and women are won: tu whatever their color. Wherever the white male has traveled, whether in Af rica. Japan, Korea, China, the South Seas or among unlettered colored women servants or slaves of his southern homest - he has left his seed to grow as a living testimony against his hypocritical attitude about race-mixing Except for the efforts of a half million whites and Negroes who are working hard thru the NAACP to correct this fallacy of our de mocracy America would now be fifty years further back than we are in race relations and world prestige as well.
