And that’s a real serv the enemy is- you knew where to place your punches. The wusleaders _the A F. of L- officials, the heads of the Urban League of the N- A A- C. P have tried to pull the wool over our eyes and to keep us be | lieeving that the government means : well, but the employers here and there just will chisgl- It’s getting pretty pain that that’s so much ba loney, no matter how the mi»leaders may slice it for us Here’s Plain Speaking Listen to this from Robert Minor, member of the Central Ctmmittee of the Communist Party and one of the vice presidents of the League of Struggle for Negro Rights- The NRA had '‘open hewing!*,” where every" body was supposed to work off steam and then let the a me go on as be fore- The NRA thought that would gave them something they weren’t looking for- He didn’t just mention a fe wsore spots, he showed up the, NRA in all its rottenness. He didn’t mince any words about the meaning of the new deal. Here’s what he said: “The NRA shows by all its ac tions that it is a measure of the gov dmment and of the employing class, conserving the interests of the em ploying class and striving above all things to prevent encroachments of labor against capital ” Then Minor went on to «ay: “The worst sufferers of all the un employed are the Negro workers. The NRA offers to them not relief, bur the most callous discrimination and deprivation of even that pittance which the white workers get here and there from some recovery pro ject.” They Never Answered This And then Minor threw another bombshell by challenging the NRA to take the Blue Eagle away from those businesses that dfisc'riminate against Negroes.

FERA INSISTS ON NEGRO TEACHERS FOR RACE IN T H E SOUTHLAND (Special to The Omaha Guide) Th»t Negroes be given a fair share of the enwegency education funds was included in a memorandum sent State Relief Admini»trators and State School officers this week by Aubrey Williams. Assistant Federal Emer gency Relief Administartor. according to Dr- Ambrose Caliver, Specialist in Educational Relief for Negroes. This memorandum is another evi dence of the continued desire of the Federal Elmer gen cy Relief Adminis tration to have Negroes share fairly in the benefits of the emergency re lief program. It stttes that the at tention of the Administration had been directed to the fact that in sev eral areas and States, funds of un employment relief have not been al lotted to educational projects in such p. way a* to give empoyment t0 Ne groes in proportion to their probable needs Accordingly, the. statement contin ues, the State administrators are res ponsible school officers are expected to distribute employment paid out of FERA relief funds on a basis of needs with complete equiliv among the groups Concerned Attention is also called to the psac tloe in certain Southern communities of employing white teachers to teach Negro students in the emergency edu cation projects. On this point the meemomndum was direct and speci fic. “Negro teachers should always be employed to teach Negro pupils and Negro adults. In States maintain ing segregated scheol programs for the two races ” The memorandum follows in full: To State Relief Administrators and State Chieef School Officers: “The attention of this Administra tion has been directed to certain facts showing that in several areas and States, funds for unemployment re lief have not been alltted to projects such as repairs of school buildings, organization of classes under the emergency educational program and the extension of school terms in such way as to give employment to Ne groes in proportion to their probable needs. “The purpose of the Relief Admin istration is to give employment to those in need and to rehabilitate the human resources of the Nation- Ac cordingly, 'ttye State administrators and responsible school officers are ex pected to distrivute employment paid for out of relief funds on a basis of needs with complete equity among the groups concerned “Since, in proportion to population, unempldyment among Negroes is equal to. If not efen greater than, unemployment among other groups, for Negroes are notably inadequate, equity demands that educational re lief to Negroes be at least at the level pf their percentage of the popu lation in each State “Since a chief purpose of the emergency education program Is to give employment to qualified teach ers and since unemployment among educated Negroes is especially *eut». Negro teachers should always be em ployed to teach Negdo pupils and Negr0 adults, in States maintaining segregated school programs for the tjvo races. 1 Sincerely yours, (Signed) AUBREY WILLIAMS, Assistant Administrator, Feeder*!

LYNCHERS OF CLAUDE NEAL STILL AT LARGE NEW YORK—(CNA)—The gov ernments of the states fo Florida and Alabama and the local authorities in volved have lifted no finger to ap prehend the members of the meb that lynched Claude Neal. 23 year old Ne gro, in the most brutal manner in Marianna. Fla-, on October 27 “There is no basis for federal in tervention ” was the statement of Attorney General Cummings in an swer to demands that the federal government prosecute the lynchers under the “Lindbergh Law,” which provides the death penalty for in terstate kidnappers. The fact that Neal was kidnapped across the state line to Florida, is sufficient basis for federal action Whitewashes Sheriff Meanwhile. Governor Dave Schlotz of Florida has absolved Sheriff W F Chambli» for his part in the lynching In answer to the thou fluids of or ganizations an dindividuals protesting the lynchng, the govearnor mmeogra phed a statement and Bent it out for distribution- In this statement, he as sumes the guilt of Neal on the rape charge, although Neel had not yet been tried- Ha also states that the lynching was quite “unnecessary." as his state has an excellent r«cord.for legal lynching and would have taken the Negro’s ife by respectable court loom methods. Excerpts faam the statement of Governor Schlotz fol low: ". .. there was nothing that coum have been done by me as Governor to prevent the lynching of this Ne gro after the matter was called to by attention- It was not «- case of calling out the militia to protect the jail or a prisoner in custody of an officer. The Negro was held in the hands of a mob out in the woods in a location unknwn to the author ities where, he was killed “This lynching wa« not only d« plorable but so absolutely unneces sary in this state where under the present administration crimes; of this character! are so speedily and sum marily dealt with- As an example. Editor's note; This is <he second of a (series of four articles on the Negro in Soviet Russia*. — A NEGO POSTAL CHIEF IN THE U. S.. S. R. BY THYRA J.. EDWARDS MOSCOW. — (FP)—Negros e may be seen fn various walks of life in iae Soviet Union in factories, tn the streets, at the theater and museums. In the Commissariat of Po-ts and Telegraph in Moscow, is Homer Smith, slender, dark brown Negro, from Minneapolis. He graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Journalism. Finding no opportun ity, he became a Minneapolis post office clerk, but since there i« no opportunity for a Negro to advance in the U- S- Postal service. Smith appli ed to the Soviet Commissariat of Posts and Telegraphs, which made him postoffice consulant and inspeo tor. He was placed in charge of re organizing the postal system- During his first year an interpreter travel ed with him- Now, tow years later he knows Russia n and travels alone. He is reported to hold the highest government post of any foreigner in the Soviet Union. Enthusiastic About Soviet In hi» official caacity, Smith travels into the remotest republican of the Soviet Union- He feels warm enthus iasm for the Soviet program of self determination of national minorities. “Theaters, opera, schools, factories, model houses going up in the re motost areas, s© that every nation ality and every individual in the Sov iet will have at hie daer absolute equality of opportunity! " he « “Ffency such a program for the Negro people iu America. «v«iy last man of them!" Like Negro In America Before the revolution, a parallel existed between the statue of the minorities in Russia and the Negro in America, Smith states- These groups under the 0*«r wore jim crewed on street cate and hi public places, intea marriage was prohibit ed, discriminatory v^gse persisted and there was almost abaohst* illiter acy. But new he finds that equality of opportunity Is umvewri in the Bov let Union. YOU'LL BUY HOME FURNISHINGS TO GREAT ADVANTAGE AT Orchard & Wilhelm Go. AND YOU LL FIND THEM VERY CONSIDERATE AND HELPFUL the Negro Doc Williams who com mitted a similar crime in Dade Coun ty on August 24, last was arrested on September 5, cnvicted on Septem ber 28, the death warrant signed by the Governor on October 2, ®nd he was executed on October 8- Thus in perfectly orderly and legal manner and with credit t the state this man paid the penalty of his crime in 30 days after he was apprehended and only 45 days after the crime was committed. There is absolutely no ex cuse for mob law in a state which deals so promptly with criminals of this character.” Gvemor B. M- Miller of Alabama ordered the grand jury to wait until November 19 before beginning an in vestigation into the lynching of Neal, following his delivery to the mob by the sheriff and jailer of Brewton, Ala.
