runs down the spine, and the unknown
child in the hospital shows no streak.
Shortly after 2 a m. Sunday, Zel
r"i Thompson. Negro, who lives at
2804 Fark, was awaken by a thin
cry outside his window. He went to
asleep again, believing that the cry
ranee from a cct or a child next door.
He- wen* out on the porch at 7;15 a.
{ m. and found the hild bundled up in
i blanket crying softly. The blanket
was pinned with one large safety pin
and one chubby hand lay on the boards.
Thompson called an ambulance- “I
thought that it was a Negro baby,"
he said today. “>:t had a flat nose
like one and it’s hair was kind of that
way- I asked my neighbors about
and one of them said, he s^w a sedan
driving about the at 2 a. m. and he
raid it stopped in front of my house.”
A hospital laboratory worker said
Negro blood could be detected by a
miscropic examination, by physicians
scoffed at this.
“The Negro and the white hild are
just alike structurally,” said one of
them. “The blood cannot be told a
part bpart by any method devised thus
far”
“You will probably hear a lot of
stuff about different methods of tell
ing a white baby from a ...egro baF>y.”
said a high official at the University
of Tennessee Medeal School- But I
can tell you that there is absolutely
no way to do it. Only the mother
can tell you.”
The baby is as pink as any other
' white baby. Its’ nose is a little flat
and there is a slightly darker band
of color about its forehead. There is
something about the hair which does
not seem quite Caucasian, but, as the
says, “they all look that way.”

NEGRO PROBLEM MAY NOT
BE SOLVED, SAYS MENKEN
NEW YORK, Sept 18—The Nejjro
problem may be insoluble, declares H.
L. Menken, former editor of the Am
erican Mercury, in an article appear
ing in October “Crisis,” out Sept
ember 24.
Mr- Menken advances the theory
that neither by uproar or legal pro
cesses is the NegTo likely to secure
the rights he craves. He holds that
the present state of m,ind in America
as he sees it,, is that the Negro has
gone far enough and should be con
I tent for the present.
However, the Sage of Baltimore
also declares the Negro cannot af
ford to cease fighting, even though
he makes no new gains, or the rights
he now has may be taken from him.
Speaking of the Constitution and the
bill of rights, upon which the Negro
depends, Mr. Menken asks:
ii . i ...
uul iviirti is mis sonorous
charter of liberties really worth?
It is worth to the Negro precisely
what it is to the American white
man. That is to say, it is worth
whatever courts and legislatures
choose to make it from time to
time. And what they choose to
make it is no more and no less
than what the concensus of opin
ion, of mbb opinion—wants to
see it made. . . .
For all these reasons,” he con
eludes, “I find myself full of
doubt that the American Negro
will recover his constitutional
r:ghts on any near tomorrow.
His politicians promise hi'm that
he will, but they are only polit
icians. Some of his white friends
tell him the same, but they hawe
fooled him in the past. My pri
vate hope is that he will get them
all soon or late- But before any
such Utopia dawns there must be
consderable change in the thing
of the human race. It must cease
believeing in quacks and trans
fer its confidence more to facts.”

‘NO DISCRIMINATION’ DEF
INITE POLICY SAYS
firestone
__
NEW YORK, Sept. 34 — “We
have a definite policy that we do
not discriminate against Ne
groes,’' declared A. P. Mathieson, I
manager of the western zone of
the Firestone Tire & Rubber Corn*
pany, in a letter addressed last
week to Walter White, secretary
of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored Peo
ple.
The statement was in reply to
a complaint by Mr. White of some-;
time ago against an inter office
memorandum in the Grand Rap-,
ids, Mich., office of the Firestone '
company, signed by H. C. Acker,
district manager, objecting to a
Negro employe waiting on trade.
* “On a recent shopping check!
of your store,” the memorandum1
stated, “it was found that the j
colored attendant was waiting on
trade and left a rather poor im
pression.
i would watch this it I were
you ami let him handle trade
only in extreme emergencies. I
don’t believe you would ap
preciate being served by a color
ed attendant if you were in a
station where the crew was made
up largely of white men.”
In his letter of complaint Mr.
White warned: “Many thousands
of Negroes in the United States
own automobiles. Many of these
use Firestone tires. The question!
I should like to ask, both per
sonally and on -behalf of Negro
users of Firestone products and
of fairminded white users, is if
the Firestone'company approves
the distinctly biased attitude of
your district manager at Grand
Rapids. If it does approve such
prejudice we should like to know
so that Negroes may be inform*
ed of this fact.”
In his reply to this complaint,
Mr. Mathieson wrote: “The man*
ager of our Grand Rapids dis
trict office did not handle the
matter as it should have been han
dled nor in keeping with our pol
icy. We have several hundred
Negro employes in our factory
here in Akron and a large num
ber are employed at our whole*
sale offices and retail stores
throughout the United States.
“We have a definite policy that
we do not discriminate against
Negroes.

everybody does and says the right
thing. We have spoken to our
this situation and we assure you

NEGRO HISTORY
Mr. J. A. odtgers, who has
made an extensive study of the
history of the Negro, tells of the
difficulties that he is having in
in getting his manuscripts pub
lished. Yet it only requires $1500
(fifteen hundred dollars). .Judg
ing from the contributions that
Mr. Rogers makes to the Negro
weeklies. \Ye cannot see why this
should be. There is no more im*
portant work to be had of a peo
ple than their past history. Jt
tends to make them self admiring
and self supporting. If the Negro j
youth knew more about his)
beautiful physical characteristic, j
achievements and heroic deeds,!
he would not spend so much rnon' ’
ey buying hair straghtener and
face whitener stuff, that has
caused him to be tlu* lapghing
stock of*the civilized world. The
people, who support the Y. W. C.
A., the N. A. A. C. P., the Urban1
Ijeague and the Negro Churches,
cannot be expected to give Mr.
Rogers their as^iitanee. B* cause
they know if a people becomes
self'apreciative, they will no
longe. submit to the treatment
that they receive today. There is
absolutely no hope for the old
Negroes of today. Therefore there
should be a fund raised to get
Mr. Rogers’ works into the hands
of our Negro children.
