A NATION OF
MINORITIES
(by Elmo Roper)
Research Director, Fortune
Survey of Public Opinion
The story of anti-minority
sentiment today is the story
of "Divide and Be Conquer
ed." Any nation which in
dulges itself in selecting min
orities for ostracism or per
secution in any form will be
"conquered” from within;
conquered in the sense that
its capacity to be internaliy
Tstrong. self reliant and prod
uctive will be destroyed.
Vi ith all of its well-known
weaknesses, human nature is
so constructed that no major
ity group of people can elim
inate a minority or deprive
one of its normal rights with
out serious impairment to the
fibre of the MAJORITY'S
character.
Bad as are the effects of
minority persecution in any
form on the members of the
minority, they are less ser
ious to the long-term national
good than are the effects of
anti-minority sentiments on
th ose who hold them. These
ill effects on the majority
would be serious even if we
wer§ considering a hypothet
ical case which involved bu:
one majority and one minor
ity.
But in America we do not
jq have so simple a situation as
one majoritv and one min
ority—WE ARE A N ATION
OF MINORITIES. The coun
tries of Europe. Asia ami
Africa have furnished “•na
tional" minorities— English.
German. Polish. Scandinav
ian. etc. Almost all of the re
ligious philosophies which
have come into being during
the ages have furnished us
with religious minorities —
Catholics. Methodists. I nitar
ians. Quakers, etc. Differenc
es in material wealth have
made minorities out of both
the very rich and the v«*ry
poor. Southern Baptists are
a smaller minority than Cath
olics. Jews are a larger min
ority than Lutheranse. Epis
copalians are a smaller min
ority than are trade union
members. Negroes are larger
minority than Methodists.
The Daughters of the Ameri
can Revolution are a smaller
minority than the American
Legion.
So ““anti-minority senti
ment" in this country means
the antipathy of one or more
minorities for one or more
different minorities. A dang- j
erously combustible frame- j
work in which to start a con-1
flagration of hatred! For we j
now know that antipathy" to-1
wards minorities is contae
ious within the INDIVIDUAL.
Dislike for one minority
breeds dislike for another.
The largest of the hate or
ganizations—the ku Klux
klan— capitalized on this
fact with its three-way cam
paign against Catholics. Ne
groes ami Jews.
Truly tiie function, though
not the purpose. of anti
minority sentiment is “Divide
and Be Conquered.' That
minority which is today a
part of a coalition of minorit
ies which make up a tempor
ary majority may well tomor
row be the persecuted minor
ity.
w hat are the sources ot
anti-this and anti-that senti
ment 'i YY e must look deep
for the causes and. regardless
of how much or how little
members of the minority
may thefselves contribute te
the dislike for it. we must
look within the mind of the
possessor of anti-minority
sentiment for much of the
answer.
It is likely that we will find
a tthe core of such sentiment
some kind of fear, however
vaguely defined: fear of the
minority’s power or size or
intentions or purposes or al
legiances— or something!
And it is likely that we will
often find that this fear is
produced hy misinformation
Clearly then, one way to com
bat anti-minority sentiment is
to actively provide as much
correct information about
each minority" as possible.
It's easy to hate someone yon
don’t know or to fear some
thing you don’t understand.
It s hard to hate someone
NAT’L NEGRO HEALTH WEEK, MARCH 31-APRIL7
Hits ‘Jim Crow’ Medical Care for Vets
New York, NY—A sharp pro
test against the edict of Dr. Paul
ft. Hawley, medical director for j
the Veterans' Administration that
Negro units will be established in
Veterans hospitals under the care ]
of Negro doctors and nurses was
voiced in a telegram March 16 by
the NAACP Hawley also declar
ed, according to newspaper re
ports, that even in the North, the
Veterans Administration would
restrict Negro doctors and nurses
to Negro patients—a strict Jim
Crow arrangement.
“The NAACP unqualifiedly pro
tests such a plan as reported
which would make for not only
the continuance of racial segrega
tion in veterans hospitals but its
extension to areas where non-dis;
crimination is against law and I
public policy.. Dual basis of ad
ministering hospital care to vet
erans places undue burden on tax- j
payers and demonstrates unAmer i
ican attitude on part of Govern-1
ment hospitals urther urge de
cision to use Negro doctors and
nurses for care of all patients in
Veterans Administration hospit
als without regard to race, creed,
or color.”

Surgeon of
Democracy
CORONET TELLS STORY OF
DOCTOR LOUIS WRIGHT
Louis Wright’s career is noti
only a stirring chapter in the his-1
tory of modern medicine, but a
striking example of democratic
triumph over prejudice and bigo
try
The article SURGEON OF DE
MOCRACY in the April Coronet,
traces the life of this great doctor
and of his fight to win recognit
ion for himself and others. Today
at his post in aHrlem Hopital, Dr I
Wright continues to work and to
train other young doctors, for
most of New York's Negro sur
geons have come up under his di
rection.
The story of Dr. Wright's in
spiring achievements begins in
1917, continues Coronet, when the
United States entered World War
I. Then 26. Wright lef Ids p~ac
tice in Atlanta to volunteer for
the Army. At the time, it was the
rule, to vaccinate against small
pox by scratching vacine into the
skin. The young Negro doctor
observed that this technique in
volved a large percentage of re
peats and one day at Camp Up
ton he made a revolutionarv ex
periment; he injected vaccine by
hypodermic needle under the skin.
It worked. "No takes" were vir
tually eliminated. Today Wrights
.method is recognized as the best
method of vaccination.
His original work on the treat
ment of skull fractures and brain
injuries has made him a leading
authority in that field. He in
vented the brace used in the trans
portation and handling of patients
with neck injuries. His report on
the treatment of rupture of the
spleen, published in 1939, is a clas
sic, and right now he is making a
study of lymphogranuloma, an in
fection of the glands which has
been the subject of little original
research in this country'.
Wright was guided into medic
ine by his stepfather, Dr. William
Fletcher Penn, a graduate of Yale I
Medical School, who paid Louis' I
expenses through Harvard at a
period when most Negro students
worked as redcaps and Pullman
porters to finance thems Ive."
through other universities. From
Dr. Penn, Wright learned to be in
tolerant of mediocrity.
Today, at 54, Dr. Wright is a
youngish-looking man with a
ready smile, easy poise and mod
est assurance Some of the older
Negro doctors on Harlem’s staff
think he’s tough—tough and un
reasonable. Perhaps it’s because
Wright won't play "race' politics
in staff promo/ons. “I insist on
the best man for the job. whether
he's white op black, Jew or Cath
olic, and that’s all there is to it,’
he says.
Like father, like—no. not son_
but daughters, for both of Dr.
Wright’s daughters have decided |
to take up medicine, concludes |
Coronet. Jane, who was graduat
ed from Smith College, started her
intemeship at Bellevue last sum
mer, and Barbara, a graduate of
Mount Holyoke, enters in April
whose problems you undei -!
stand: it‘s not easv to be fear

Meanwhile the NAACP office in

Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt and Dr
Channing H. Tobias will serve as
co chairman of a national commit- !
tee. it was announced by Walter j
White who is in personal charge
of the case for the NAACP. Mrs.
Roosevelt telegraphed her consent
from Tucson, Ariz.
There are two aspects to this
case. White said, both of which
are of the greatest importance
One is the adequate legal defense
of those who have been arrested
and charged with crime. This is
the first consideration. These in
nocent persons, terrorized by a
\ mob and the threat of a lynching
merely retired to their section of
Columbia to avoid any trouble.
Their district was invaded, their
homes and businesses were ran
sacked and wrecked, and scores of
them were threatened and beaten
at the point of machine guns in
the hands of raiding state troop
ers.
It is of the very first import
ance that these innocent people
be freed and that nothing take
precedence over securing their
liberty on these fantastic charges.
The second important feature of
this case is the arousing of public
opinion through mass meetings
and protests to bring the guilty
parties to justice and to prevent
the occurence at Columbia from
becoming the pattern to be used
by other communities throughout
the nation. Wre expect, through
the national committee now being
formed, through the 1200 branches
of the NAACP and through coop
eration with other organizations
to carry out this important task
but without forgetting that the
main issue to the colored people
; in Columbia is that those who have
been arrested shall be free.
Mass Meetings Arranged
White said that series of mass
meetings is being arranged in 15
key cities, with smaller gather
ings scattered in a score of other
cities where the case will be pub
licized by speakers from the NAA
CP National office and others.
White spoke March 21 to an
overflow mass meeting at Ebene
zer AME Church in Detroit. Thur
good Marshall, chief councel of
the NAACP who will supervise
i the entire legal defense, spoke on
the Columbia case at a masss meet
in Cleveland, Ohio. The case also
was spread before delegates to a

of branches and Miss Lucille B.

“A HEALTHY HOME IN A HEALTHY COMMUNITY”
THEME OF THIS YEAR S OBSERVANCE; FOUNDED
BY DR. BOOKER T. W ASHINGTON IN 1915
The thirty-second observance of National Negro Health
Week set for March 31—April 7 will emphasize the theme,
“A healthy home in a healthy community,” the l'. S. Pub
lic Health Service announced.
‘Any movement to stimulate better health among Negroes
is helpful not only to the group itself but to the entire na
tion which is socking an adequate health and medical pro
gram for all people.” Dr. Thomas Parran. Surgeon Gener
al of the U. S. Public Health Service, declared.
“National Negro Health Week as a period of emphasis
anti demonstration of year-round efforts stresses the great
need and opportunity for the average Negro family to im
prove their home and share health benefits in tiic rommun
itv.” Dr. Parran said. He pointed out that although Ne
groes constitute 10 percent of our population, they bear
from three to six times their proportional burden of ill
health and premature death. “This disproportionate bur
den of sickness and death upon the Negro race should lie
removed.” Dr. arran declared. “Every American, what
ever his race and economic status, should be assured the
opportunity of health.”
National Negro Health eek was founded in 1915 by
Dr. Booker T. Washington, late principal of Tuskegee In-,
stitute. and the time now is chosen during the week that
includes April 5. his birthday. After his death T uskegee
Institute and Howard University sponsored the National
Negro Health Week Movement. The U. S. Public Health
