NAACP OPPOSES STATE
CONTROL OF ART PROJECTS
New Work, May 4—An appeal
•was issued today by the NAACP
to all Americans especially Ne
groes to oppose cuts by Congress
of appropriations f' r the Federal
arts projects. It is aimed particu
larly at the “white collar” pro
jects which will localize them in
the states and vest control in
state authorities. The NAACP
pointed out tjhat this would seri
ously cripple, particularly in
southern states, the already small
opportunity given Negroes and
particularly Negro writers Th^
association also called attention
to the considerable amount of ma
terial in various art fields which
has been gathered by Negro writ
ers and the m^iderable number
of contributions made in the fields
of music and the theatre. It point
ed particularly to the number of
books written, the vast amount of
material about Negro life and
Negro contributions to American
culture which has been gathered
and published, and to the Negro
theatre as represented in the
"Swing Mikado,” “Macbeth,” and
in the creation of art oenters Hke
the one in Harlem.
Interested persons should write
their senators and congressmen
urging opposition to* any bill de
signed to curtail the federal arts
projects or to vest control of them
in the several states.
SOUTHERN GROUP TO FIGHT
HEALTH DISCRIMINATIONS
Birmingham, Ala. May 3— A
o/ntinuing campaign against dis
criminations in public health pro
grams, and for the improvement
of tibe health of colored people
was pledged in the resolutions
adopted here April 23 at the clos
ing session of the fourth Southern
Regional Conference of branches
of the NAAGP. Branches in Ga,
Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi
and Tennessee were represented at
the meeting.
The health resolution urged that
state and federal funds for health
work be allotted justly in pro
portl to the health needs of the
Negro, that Negro doctors dentists
nurses and social workers be em
ployed on the staffs of public
health bureaus and departments,
and that Negro advisory comm.it
tes be named by state and federal
health agencies to assist with the
Negro work The resriution also
urged safeguards in the new
President’s health program outlin
ed in the recently-introduced Wag
ner bill.
Branches and teachers were
urged in another resolution to
cooperate in pushing test cases
in the courts t» secure equal
teacher’s salaries and to correct
other inequalities in public edu
ca'Hon. The u*esolion did not
mention it, but there was consid
ering talk in the city of the pos
sibility of some Negro student ap
plying for admissMn to the Uni
versity of Alabama* for advanced
or professional training.
In a vigorously worded resolu
tion the conference urged “Ne
groes 6m demand the free right to
vote in primaries as well as
elections, the right to serve on
grand and petit juries, the right
to be free from police brutality,
and the right to have equal ac
commodations on the common car
riers of the nation." Continued
support to the campaign for a
federal anti-lynching law was
pledged.
A pledge to support labor legis
lation for the betterment of the
working class and a suggestion
that colored people give prefer
ence to those merchants who em
ploy Negroes were contained in
other resolutions.
Tho closing meeting In the |
Masonic Temple was addressed
by A. T. Walden, and Luther
Bdookes, of Atlanta, Ga.; the prin
cipal of the high school in Mobile
Alabama, and Roy Wilkins, as
sistant secretary and editor of the
Crisis, from the nati. nal office
in New York. Bishop B. G Shaw,
spoke briefly urging Birmingham
citizens to support the NAACP
by taking out membership.
Tho keynote address of the con
ference was delivered by Dr. E.
W. Tagart, former president of
tho Birmingham branch and now
a national director of the NAACP.
Panel discussions on education,
labor relations, problems of youth
constitutional rights, religion and
economics, and race relations
made up the program on April 22.
J. L. LeFlore of Mobile and Dr.
C. A. McPher#<n of Birmingham
were re-elected chairman and sec
retary respectively. S. L. Belle is
President of the Birmingham
j branch. , <
HIT IN THE POCKETBOOK
Government acquisition of the
electric light and power industry
is beginning to hit out citizens
where they feel it most—in the
pocketbook. And the result is that
a great many dosy dreams of the
blessings that are supposed to
dime from socialized power are
being rudely exploded.
Tn the state of Tennessee for
instance, a government agency, the
Tennessee Valley Authority, has
taken over all the major private
power properties. These properties
were taxed to the hilt wh^n in
private hands, and ade now prac
tically tax free. As a consequence,
it is estimated that the state gov
ernment alone will lose $1,080,000
a year in tax revenue; its muni
cipalities will lose $1,027,348;
counties and school districts will
lose $727,794; and a total of $C76,
953 more in miscellaneous taxes
the utilities used to pay will also
be lost by various units of the
Tennessee gi/vernment. That, adds
up to more than $3,500,000—which
jv>X«dx«t VRt JopuoM ou s(^j
as tjhe saying goes, “isn’t hay!"
who see dollars added to his tax
statement in order to cut a few
cents from his light bill, is becom
ing disillusioned.
Crossing the continent, a simi
lar siijuati ai threatens in the Paci
fic Northwest where public owner
ship adfvocates are making a great
cry in an attempt to persuade
the voters to approvo publicly
owned power districts to d’stribute
electricity from Grand Coulee and
Bonnevillo daims to supplant the
private utilities. In a recent year
the major utilities in Washington
and Oregon paid $5,700,000 to
sitate and local governments, plus
$2,000,000 ho the federal govern
ment, and in some counties utlility
taxes amount to nearly half of all
county tax revenue. Both of these
state face severe budget difficul
ties and as n^ire than 25 per cent
of their area already consist of
tax-free Indian reservations and
national parks, the loss of utility
tax revenue would be a blow. And
that may explain why Northwest
taxpayers, in general seem to he
locking on the public ownership
proposals with cold and ciitical
eyes.
The simple way out, of course,
is for public ownership projects
to pay taxes on precisely the same
hasis as private utilities and to
willingly submit to the v*ame kind
of regulation, accounting practices,
etc. But, in every instances, this
proposal has been fought tooth an
nail by those who are so eager
to socialize the electric industry.
Can it be that the socialists pri
vately realize that if their projects
are put on a fair comparative basis
wth private industry, the public
will really see h'w empty are the
windy promises they make of
“cheap power?"
-ooo
SHOT IN THE ARM
It is reported that government
economicts view the immediate
business future with optimism
largely because the Treasury’s
monthly deficits are increasing.
One wonders just how much lon
; ger these "shots in the arm" tac
tic* will meet wiJh any success.
It may temporarily invigorate in
dustry. bi pour out money without
worrying where more money is
coming from to meet the deficit.
But it certainly doesn’t build a
sound foundation, for a nation to
keep on piling up debt for future
generations to pay.
Some day, we’ll learn that the on
ly honest and permanent prosperi
ty must come from productive, ex
panding industry under a stable
government which makes bo.h
ends meet. Let’s hope we don’t
learn that too late.
