OPA AXTl-XEGRO EVICTION
ORDER HIT BY CONGRESS
MAN MARCAXTOXIO
New York. June 6 (ANP) Con
gressman Vito Marcantonio, president
of the International Labor defense,
this week requested Chester Bowles,
OPA director, to reconsider a nation
al OPA certificate of eviction based
solely on the fact that the tenants. Mr
and Mrs. Larry Wiliams, are a mix
ed couple. Mr. Williams is white.
When the landlord failed to get an
eviction order from the local rent
control director, he took his case to
he rent division of OPA Washing
ton and was granted a certificate of
eviction. Marcantonio pointed out
that the attitude of the landlord and
the OPA in this case were partly re
sponsible for high rentals in Negro
areas of New York.
"As a member of congress from
Harlem," said Marcantonio, “and as
one who has lived in Harlem all my
ife, 1 am well acquainted with the
neighborhood location in which the
apartment house in question is l<Kat
ed. It is a neighborhood in which
live American families of many rac
ial extractions; Negro, white, Puerto
Rican, Spanshi and so on. As a mat
ter of fact, the East River Housing
development—a government low-cost
housing project which I sponsored, is
only a few blocks away. And in this
project Negro and white American
families have been living in complete
harmony for many years. I cite these
facts to nidicaie that in the neighbor
hood the democratic pattern of Negro
and white Americans living together
in harmony has long been normal."
While urging OPA director Bowies
to revtrse his position on the eviction
case, the New York congressman
criticized greedy landlords who;
scheme to restrict the number of
dwellings available for Negro Amer
icans to create an artificial Negro
housing shortage.

Pegler Quotes Negro
Newspaper.
By Westbrook Pegler
(from a clipping sent in by a
Subscriber)
New York—About two years ago,
1 yielding to the wild impulse of the
man who threw an egg into an elec
! trie fan. I composed a restrain and
dignified but daring criticism of the
Negro press tor the United State-,
finding it low, venal and violent and
ethically no better than the journal
ism of Charles Coughlin, of Detroit,
and I should have added. Marshall
Field of New York and Chicago. As
I expected, the retaliation was vigor
ous, and the guiltiest of the Negro
opportunists in the field of journalism
profiteers in their peoples' perplexity
and exploiters of ambition and frus
tration were the most violent. Their
racket had been recognized and chal
lenged. In the name of racial amity
and cooperation, they had been pro
moting race riots and in contempt of
their own professed respect for the
intelligence and dignity of their bre
thren, they were taking dirty money
from swindlers who advertised voo
doo perfume, guaranteed to bewitch
reticent females, lodestones to bring
luck to clients of the numbers rack
et and lucky charms to help in fill
ing inside straights and in shooting
ten the hard way.
Recently, having received a mild
admonition from even so moist a
friend as Eleanor Roosevelt to in
spect their sigths and alter their meth
ods, the magnets of the egro press
celebrated an occasion designated Na
! tional Negro Newspaper Week. I
| do not know what exercises went on,
but. for the record, I should like to
quote from an editorial in the Trib
une of Los Angeles, a newspaper
published by and for Negroes.
“This,” said the Tribune, “by de
cree of the Negro Publishers’ assoc
iation is National Negro Newspaper
week and this paper has been encour
aged to mark the event with editorial
mention. Well, we will, but what we

gar. the black W'inchell is downright
licentious. If the details of a rape
case in the Hearst papers are lurid,
they’re downright elemental in a Ne

glorify cheapness. Negro newspapers
go farther in glorifying vulgarity, ev

Having been a reader of the Los

of other Negro publications even be- |

contrast which it perceives between
itself and the Pittsburgh Courier, the
Chicago Defender, the Afro-Americ
