ONE LEGGED POLITICIANS
We will admit that self preservation is the first
law of nature, but the thinking Black man is tired of this
worn out political machinery fostered by some of the pol
itic; ; leader.- of our group who betray and misrepresent
thei iVid. a worker in order to build up their own political
background. Recently it has been strikingly noticeable,
the -called political leaders staging the old role of de
mar ding representation and constitutional rights, and
turn out to be "purchasable leaders”. The politician and
office seeker should use a little common sense in finding
out how main followers these self-styled breadline politic
ian have. They should demand them to do the same as
all races and gro ips do,—secure their pro-rata of employ
ment and preserve their constitutional rights. Demand
ih i;. -<g up an organization of their own ana furnish
the necessary finance to operate the organization in in
terest of the candidate that they claim they are so con
cerned to see elected to an office.
It is the desire of every American Negro to see cap
able Negroes in official positions where they may de
mand their rights, but not for Negroes who will sell their
race body and soul for a few paltry dollars.
ANOTHER PRO-PARKER SENATOR DEFEATED
The primary election with its surprises and upsets
of political dope is still the topic of interest where ever
the political-minded meet. Several reasons are given for
the result, but of course the main cause was those whb
failed, did not get enough votes. This may not seem wise
but tLie -object in its analysis comes to this point. Bpt
we may draw some lessons from this contest. Our Ne
leaders overlooked the winner and divided their forc
es betw ,-en Shortridge and Crail. Mr. Tubbs is under no
obligation for their support in the primary, but he will
net l this united support in the November election. The
close margin of Tubbs’ lead brings out the conclusion
had the Negro vote been cast solid for Shortridge, he
would have been nominated, and that the NAACP. has
another Parker Senator’s scalp. The Prohibition was a
determining factor and that this State is debatable ground
on this great social experiment, this is demonstrated bv
the surprising showning of Bob Shuler. Chester Rowell
sizes up the situation as a paradox in which a “predomin-»
antly dry vote, in dominant party, nominated the wetest
candidate on its list. The Rev. Bob, who received more
votes than anybody else, was the only aspirant to any of
fice who had ever been formally declared a public nuis
ance and officially suppressed as such. Evidently some
300,000 people in California, most of whom must have
heard his scurrilous radio abuse of all and sundry, did not
regard him in that light.” If this freak breaks into con
gress he won’t be lonely as there are others.
Fred Roberts seems to be invincible, he scores again.
LEARN HOW TO WALK
An extremely important phase of the automobile
accident problem is carlessness or ignorance on the part
of the pedestrian. During 1931, pedestrian deaths reach
ed 14,500 out of a total of 34,400 deaths caused by auto
mobiles, and the number of pedestrians injured non-fat
alh was 300,000. Consequently, if we are to make defin
ite progress in reducing deaths and injuries, we must
teach the public to walk.
In the case of the walker on the highway at night,
the old rule of “Keep to the right” may be suicidal—the
left side is the right side. Wearing dark clothing increas
es the hazard because of its invisibility. Weather condi
tions are all important, and at the hour between light and
darkness, when the pedestrian tends to blend into the
background ar*l figuratively disappear, he must be ex
tremely careful, inasmuch as the driver may not be able
to see him at all, and hence cannot take care of him.
Carlessness in crossing streets, stepping suddenly
out from between parked cars, walking around the end of
a street car into traffic and thoughtlessness and abstrac
tion regarding traffic lights, court disaster.
If pedestrians can learn “good walking practices”,
deaths and injuries from automobiles will be reduced.
PRACTICAL ROAD BUILDING
The most expensive roads are those who do not
serve their communities well. By the same token, the
most economical roads are those which best suit local
conditions, whether they cost three thousand dollars a
mile or thirty thousand.
At this time many states, cities and counties doubt
less consider dropping much of their road work as an eco
nomy measure. This is a mistake—almost any other
government function and maintenance has been one of
the most vital factors in fighting distress and unemploy
ment the past three years. And remember this—every
road dollar which we spend, so long as it is spent wisely
after due study of conditions, will return continuous div
idends in the future. It will do this by improving busi
ness conditions, encouraging tourist travel, and broaden
ing the markets and opportunities for agriciultural sec
tions.
Good secondary roads, which are weatherproof,
skidproof and long-wearing, can be built with oil or as
phalt surfaces, for less than five thousand dollars a mile.
These make perfect feeder arteries for connecting towns
and farming areas with the cross-country superhighways.
They have been termed the “food” roads of the nation—
a title they eminently deserve.
The good roads movement has been one of the most
progressive phases of the twentieth century. The nec
essity of facilities for fast, economical and year-round
transport can hardly be exaggerated. And roads will
play an even greater part in the future of America than
they have in the past.
KILLING THE WORK HORSE
A good many politicians seem to believe that the
way to solve unemployment is to levy more taxes on the
industries which, if a permanent and sound prosperity is
to be achieved, must provide the jobs.
They figure that the way to get more work out of
a horse is to load him so heavily that he is unable to move
out of his tracks! The people must realize that it is
from prosperous industries that they secure emplovment,
and not from industry-killing politicians and taxation.
THEN AND NOW
Those who denounce the privately owned electric
industry would do well to give little thought to conditions
today as compared with those of twenty or thirty years
ago.
Those were the days of small local plants. Many
of them were municipally owned. It was common to
have service during only a few hours a day. It was also
common to have service shut down, due to mechanical
trouble, during the hours it was most needed. According
to modern standards, rates were extraordinarily high and
plants were amazingly inefficient and wasteful. La*ge
industries could settle only in large cities, inasmuch as the
service in the smaller towns was too uncertain to be trust
ed.
Today the average small town is served by private
ly owned electric system which may extend into several
states and serve thousands of other communities and mil
lions of persons. Interruption of service is practically
unknown, and when it does occur, due to storms or some
unusual disturbance, it is remedied with amazing prompt
ness, often in the face of seemingly insurmountable ob
stacles. Service is given twenty-four hours a day. Ef
ficiency prevails. Rates are so low as to be an almost hid
den item in the family budget. Great industries are leav
ing the large cities and settling inrural areas where the
problem of taxation and space are less pressing. And
they have the assurance that the power service they will
get in a village of five hundred will be just as good as
in a city of five million.
It will be hard to convince the average person that
this could have been done under government ownership.
European countries, where government utilities have
been uppermost, have lagged far, far behind us. When
politics, with all its inefficiency and patronage, comes into
a business a high standard of service customarily goes out.
A POLITICAL CROSSROADS
The Negro is at the political crossroads, he is to
choose between an administration that has courted the
South and ignored and humiliated him, with an indiffer
ence bordering on brutality. There can be no excuse for
this treatment, only on the ground that white Republic
ans believe the Negro will vote the Republican ticket re
gardless of the issues involved. The Democratic Party
hates the Negro because of the belief that the Negro is
hopelessly Republican. While not advocating falling into
any particular party, but once established that Negro
voters respond to live issues, instead of dead traditions.
We will be respected in the Republican party and “lily
whiteism” will be a thing of the past and with it go the
white primary. We have the means in our hands to put
our enemies on the spot, if we but use our votes intelli
gent. But so long as our leaders are willing to be hu
miliated and scorned, then kiss the hand that smites
them, who are the rank and file to lookto for guidance
and leadership? *
Let us reverse that old adage:
‘‘A white man never forgets an insult;
An Indian never forgets an injury;
The Negro forgets both.”
Let our slogan be the Negro never forgets.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
(by The Modern Priscilla Art &
Study Club)
To clean the ice box, one that is'
lined with porcellein,—nse a warm
soda solution and rinse with clear
water. This should be done twice
a week. Will keep the ice box
sweet and fresh.
Most people when they fry
fish usually throw the grease a
way. To avaoid this waste, peal
an irish potato, cut in small pieces
and brown in the fish fryings.
This will take away the fish
smell and may be used for an us
ual frying.
“KEEP THE WELL CHILD
WELL”
A Story of What Happened When
We Let The Child Go on His Own
" I
(by The Visiting Nurse Ass’n. of
Omaha)
If your child looks well, acts
well, eats well, sleeps well, and is
well, do you see any reason why
his daily program should be su
pervised? When the nurse sug
gests that we make a record of
his health program, have you
ever thought the suggestion un
necessary, probably even a bit
foolish?
Well, if you have thought that,
you are not alone. Not so many
years ago, even Health Organiz
ations thought the same thing.
But listen to the story of what
really happened right here in the
United States—a discovery that
changed many people’s minds a
bout what to do with the well i
child.
Most of you know why we have j
Baby Stations, don't you? Baby'
Stations are not for the sick bab
ies; they are for the WELL bab
ies; they are intended to help the
parents keep these well babies
well. For many years, Health
Organizations have been holding
Baby Stations all over the coun
try, from one coast to another.
What has been the result? At
the age of two years, hundreds
and hundreds of perfectly fine
| splendid children have been grad
uated from these Baby Stations
every year. Can’t you just see
them, these little two-year olds,
the finest lot of children you
could find anywhere—plump,
rosy-cheeked, with perfect teeth,
happy, playful, never sick?
And how proud we parents and
health workers were of them;
how proud of the good joh we
had done. They were so fine that
all of us thought that there was
not another thing we could do to
improve them. And so not an
other thing did we do for them—
not until they were almost five
years old and ready to go to
school. That was three years
later. Then we had them exam
ined to see if they were “all right
for school”.
What do you suppose we found
what do you suppose these hun
dreds and hundreds of fine, hap
py, perfectly well two-year olds
looked like after those three
years had passed? Can you make
a guess? Well, this is what we
found—and all over the United
States too. Instead of the fine
happy, perfectly well group of
two year olds, we found that
eight out of every ten children
had something definitely wrong
with them! Some had had ton
sils: some had enlarged glands:
there were running ears; many
had decayed teeth; a large num
ber was underweight; some had
defective posture; many were
nervous, cross, irritable; most
were taking colds easily and sick
frequently. What a sad, sad,
picture when compared with the
splendid, happy, healthy group
they were three years earlier!
And why was this so? Just be
cause we all wrongly thought that
those little children were so fine
at two years of age that “there
wasn’t anything else for us to do”
But why didn’t the parents see
what was happening, you mav
ask? Chiefly (because it usual
ly takes a long, long time for the
results of had health habits to
SHOW. It is not until a great
deal of damage has been done
that we see the outward signs of
it.
To prevent the same situation
happening agin is the reason for
our Pre-school Conferences. Reg
ular supervision of our children’s
health program will give no
chance whatever of their slipping
down slowly into Danger Valley.
This is the ONLY way we can he
sure of their staying on top of
Safety Hill, if they are not right
on the very top of Safety Hill,
bring them to Pre-school Confer
ence where we will work Vmt to
gether the best health program we
can for your children to get to
the top of Safety Hill as fast as
they can—and once there, con
tinue their health program every
dav so that we can KEEP them
the finest, healthiest, happiest
children it is possible for children
to be.
