Too every keen observation of the
times ilt its very epparent that a new
philhsophw has evolved among Ne-
8ness ass am outcome of the world-
wiitle depression. Negroes have be-
come Business-conseious. Formerly
wllem a Negro went into business the
enmentt opinion was, “he is in business
to help the race.” Now the saying
is, “we are out to make a living.”
This is a remarkable advancement

semimness off purpose and action
wiliith and so fundamental to business
perity he felt disposed to pay more
for an article, he has now to sketch
his money because of diminished earn-
ing and buying capacity. His philoso-
phy now is not accomodation of the
merchant around the corner but sound
economy. He refuses to be guided by
sentimentality in spending his money,
to pay ninety cents for an article
which another merchant sells for
seventy five.
“But” says someone, “That fifteen
cents would help the poor colored mer-
chant a good deal, won’t it? The race
should sacrifice a little for its own
good.” This is good argument from
an altruistic viewpoint, not from a
business one. Would the merchant
himself pay one dollar and fifty cents
for what he could easily obtain else-
where for the price of one dollar?
Reason forbids it. When the public
is disposed to render charity it does
so cheerfully. It does not tolerate
mixing charity with business.
Comfiuntes today with the reality

nendlizatfonm that business must be

difffimore to race enterprises, but it
is questionable whether this is from
malliiis intent. Negroes have an in-
Hemntt loyalty to patronize their own.
On the other hand the character of
the times now compel the consumer
to excise common sense in his do-
mestiie affairs.. If in times of pros-
ness.
But the public is not concerned
about the merchant’s worries, it has
enough to bother about its own. Nor
is it either for the merchant to throw
up his hands with, “I can’t do better;
the race should help me they’d rather
see me go under.” It is his duty to
find ways and means to succeed. If
he is a fighter he will find a solution.
The lower creatures teach us the way.
MISSISSIPPI WOMAN GROWS
“HUMAN" SWEET POTATO
SAN JACINTO COUNTY
, Seven different communities were
represented at the county encamp-
ment, July 21 and 22. Five hundred
and fifty people visited the camp.
Demonstrations were given each day,
also lectures. Boys’ and girls’ games
were held in the afternoons and pro-
grams rendered by club boys and girls
each night.
On the 22nd, Miss Edna M. South-
ard, sanitary instructor, talked to the
group on rural sanitation, which was
very helpful.
At the close of the encampment a
demonstration was given in canning
beef. One hundred and twenty nine
cans were put up which consisted of
steak, roast, stew and soup stock.
This demonstration was given for the
benefit of those who are planning to
can beef this fall.

Gladly do I take advantage of the
oportunity to make a statement as to
why Negroes should vote the socialist
ticket.
They should do its because over-
whelmingly Negroes belong to the
working class. Only to very small
numbers are Negroes members of aa
owning class which lives without toil.
The great mass of them are workers
with hand and brain. The Socialist
party is the party of such workers.
It seeks to establish a world in which

GUADALUPE COUNTY
Meeting at New Bridge on July 28
and 29, the Farmers’ County Council
sponsored its annual encampment in
cooperation with the extension serv-
ice. Of special interest was the bread
making contest under the supervision
of the home demonstration agent in
which a team of girls vied with each
other in the making of corn bread.
The bread was sampled by those pres-
ent and was declared to be of excel-
lent quality even though 'some of it
was made with water only.
Lectures were delivered the group
by the county officers, representatives
of the ministry, doctors and dentists.
The crowd was larger than any pre-
vious gathering of this group.
Games consisted of potato races,
lean and fat women races, amateur
boxing and baseball. •

The above mentioned sections will
be in operation this association year
when we meet in Forb Worth. Come
teachers and let us have a great and
good meeting, announced President
McDonald.
Specifically the Socialist party is
committed by its platform to the en-
forcement of constitutional guarantees
of economic, political and legal equali-
ty for the Negro and to the enact-
ment and enforcement of drastic anti-
lynching laws. We propose, in short,
that the Negro shall be treated on
the same terms as the white man and
that both white and colored men shall
be treated as men. In the socialist
society we intend that no able-bodied
man, white or colored, shall be able
to live without working and that no
man shall look for work in vain.
You will see that we do not like
the Communist promise self determi-
nation in the black belt. That is bad
socialism and bad sense. We want a
party of workers with hand and brain
to achieve power all over America.
We cannot be thinking in terms of
this working class party and at the
same time in terms of racial parties
or racial government. The Negro in
America has no linguistic or cultural
differences from his white brother
which make it advantageous for him
to live in segregated communities.
The Communist proposal written into
its platform is at best an invitation to
segregation of Negro workers in one
county or state and white workers in
another. At worst it is an invitation
to race riots. It is not an expression
of self determination but of something
close to self extermination. That I

The Kroger company refused to do
this. The Toledo branch of the N.

Withdrawal of the marines now in

However, the treaty aha provided

urged further that the department
cancel all contracts held by persons
who have been guilty of offenses set
forth in the testimony.
While assuring Mr. White and Miss

will be done to correct conditions in
