Westbrook Pegler Quotes
the Lady from California
New York, NY.—Columnist Westbrook Pegler, recently
made his annual criticism of the Negro press. I cannot
say that I am an dmirer of Pegler’s work. though I must
admit a healthy respect for his success in maikug a fortune
by parading his animosity as a ferless presentaation of the
truthful and therefore more dangerous side of the news.
Pegler, the man I do not know, and can not therefore in
dulge in nor appreciate the personal attacks made upon
him by those who find it necessary to violently disagree
with the way he has selected to make a living. Pegler the
writer is a journalistic freak, a sensationalist with a positive
anti complex. That he is anti-Negro is the point behind
his yearly pilgrimage to the other side of the tracks.
Like so many others who dare not venture forth on their
own in attacking the Negro, Pegler uses quotes from a Ne
gro source. He has fallen into the habit of citing the state
'Iments of an estimable lady editor of a Los Angeles tabloid
that enjoys an intimate circulation, and which must have
had itself in mind when it said editorially, “Negro newspa
pers are powerless because the men and women behind
them and on them lack the power of skill . . . . ” With the
arrogance and superiority of a confirmed racist, Pegler
chose to disdain the qualifications of the many highly
trained publishers and editors of Negro newspapers, and
selected the lady from California and her cozy little sheet,
as his ideal for achievement in the Negro newspaper field.
It is of no interest to Pegler that there are papers that
have been owned and run by Negro families'for generations
and that those same papers are far from perfect institutions
because, his rantings and the scolding reproofs of the lady
from California to the contrary, this is a white man’s coun
try and the advertising that is the life blood of any news
paper must come largely trom white sources. Perhaps the
Negro press has not inmitated too closely the white newspa
pers and they have missed some excellent standards a* a re
sult, but through peddling luck charms and love powders
they have been able to disseminate news and information
which has helped weld the Negro minority into a strong,
alert segment of the American body politic.
The lady from California is quoted by Pegler as calling
for a return by the Negro to “the simplest tenets of dec
ency, cleanliness, thrift and perserverence.” It is not sur
prising that he seized upon this quote for bold-face present
ation, for it gives a beautiful inerence that these qualities
are lacking in the character of Negro men and women.
“Our performance,” the lady from California is quoted
to have said in an editorial, “should keep pace with our
protestations.” In these few well-chosen words you have
the essence of high moral, civic and political achievement.
It is the state, we must assume, in which writer Pegler and
the lady from California abide alone. As desirable as it
may be that al of us work to measure up and thus become
eligible to join them, most of us by choice will forego the
pleasure.
Pegler s New \ork outlet, the Hearst Journal-American,
has long been a most unpopular member of the metropoli
tan daily press. It has been accused of questionable ethics
and it has not hesitated to use its power to whip up a
frenzy against the Negro. The Christian Science Minitor is
a unique publication that follows dainty ethics and will not
accept liquor ads. However both newspapers that enjoy
wide circulation, and this would not be so if it were not
true that many people find something of interest in some
part of each paper.
Neither the self-sufficient Pegler, nor the talented lady
from California can say that luck charms, love powders,
sensational news stories or vulgarity are the chief reason
why people buy Negro newspapers. Perhaps the day will
come when the standard of the Negro press will be higher,
but that is, at the moment an ideal that must be worked
for like first class citizenship and the right to live where we
please.
The lady from California is trying to build herself and
her paper into guv^> proportions in her chosen field, and
that is her right. She has taken on every Negro paper in
the country, and that is her right, but it should not be a
source of comfort to her to know that her most unrealistic
public scolding has provided a springboard for Pegler to
libel Negro soldiers with these words: “. . . the majority of
the Negro papers during this war so undermined the nation
al loyalty of Negro servicemen that they became unmistak
ably responsible or episodes humiliating to their own racial
clientele and tragic to many individual Negroes thus seduc
ed to commit grievous military crimes.” That statement,
Mr. Pegler and dear lady, is a DAMN LIE. The records of
the 0\S I will show that every Negro! paper in the country
used volumes of its material to build morale and loyalty
throughout the war period.
If Pegler means that by carrying reports of white peo
ple's discrimination and curtailment of Negro’s rights at
home made the boys at the front angry he should remem.
ber that both himself and the lady from California sub
scribed to the belief that, “Truth is always dignified.” The
influence that the Negro press exerted over our boys at the
front is a normal influence that the presentation of truth
would ordinarily have. None of the white papers, com
nutted to the practice, deleted the word Negro from any of
TOLERANCE ON TRIAL
(By Henry C. Turner)
Chairman, NY State Commission
against Discrimination
i Condensed from May 3rd Issue of The
American Magazine
NEW YORK'S action in outlawing
prejudice in employment was a bold
and ticklish move. Nowhere in the na
tion, rarely in any other part of the
world, is there a greater mixture ol
races, creeds, and colors than in the
melting pot of Manhattan and its ad
jacent boroughs. For years certain
national groups and colors have been
forced into individual fiancfal, social,
and political cliques, with the result
that many of their members have been
unable to rise above the economic class
into which they were born.
“NO fsEGROES employed here” Such
I a sign might well have been placed on
i the door of the personnel office of one
of the country’s greatest insurance
companies. Ever since it had been
founded it had maintained a consist
ent practice against the hiring of col
ored people, refusing even to interview
them for job vacancies.
But by mid-July of last year that
firm had 40 Negroes working in various
departments in its New York offices and
had ordered personnel workers to give
every colored applicant equal consid
eration with whites.
Th'at about-face change in policy was
one of the immediate results of a re
volutionary new state law creating a
New York State Commission Against
Discrimination with power to compel
business, industry, and labor unions to
eliminate employment practices preju
dicial to an individuals’ race, creed, or
national origin.
The incident, in which the insurance
company simply had complied with the
law, was only one of several which
followed the enactment of the new sta
tute. No longer could an employer re
ject an applicant or fire an employee
because he was a Catholic, a Jew, !a
Protestant, or because he was Greek
or Polish or Egyptian or his parents
had been born in European or African i
countries, or because he was black or |
yellow or white. His application was to
be judged solely on his experience, his
'ability, and his knowledge of the job
to be done.
In view of the formidable opposition
to the Ives-Quinn Bill, as it was to be
known before it became law, the num
ber of business and industrial concerns
which have conformed to its provisions
seems almost incredible....
It must be understood that the Com
mission is feeling its way along a way
that has never been explored before.
There is no legal or social precedent
on which decisions can be based.
(The law is flexible, and we of the
Commission must apply it with com
mon sense and fairness ).
Some civic leaders said the bill would
prohibit new enterprise from settling
in the state. Businessmen cited it as
another curb on their activities, a new
case of government meddling, an impos
' sible attempt to settle a purely moral
issue by legislative intervention.
Bebause the law has been in opera
t ion less than a year, it may be too
early to assess its results, but, so far,
none of these predictions have mater
ialized. Both industry and labor have
been in large degree co-operative, ass
isting the Commission in enforcing a
statute that is without precedent in 'any
state of the Union.

-(by DORIS ANN McGILL)
Well—well another week has passed'
and we’re picking up just where we

its crime stories in deference to better relationship between
the races during the war.
Whatever Pegler might say, and however much the lady
from California may speak her shame of her people, the
condition of the Negro press reflects accurately the condi
tion of the Negro race in the American scene. You can’t
straighten out the press until we straighten out the race
problem. Some of us may grow impatient and disgusted,
but nothing will help except sincere hard work on all fronts
Telling the white man how badly off we are won’t help.
He knows the score already, and he’ll only use our tirades
against ourselves to push us farther into the background.
Hie Negro press grew before the advent of Pegler and the
lady from California, and it will survive and continue to
grow despite them.

Little boy standing up in street car

at AL, who was sitting in the seat be

Al:..“ Y Hello Sonny, what’s your

The little boy’s mother:. .“Sit down
Bobbie!”
Little boy, standing again:..“My
name’s Bob-bee, . .1 know what you
are.”
Al:..“Where did you get that pretty
coat?”
Little boy:..“My mommie bought it
for me,..I know you are”.
His mother:. .“Now Bobby sit down’
Little boy protesting:. .“But I don’t
wanna sit down, mommie.”

Love
“My, how sweet Charmaine, so you

HATE
Senator Theodore G. Bilbo and Con

Headlines Say:..“Are the worst the
South has to offer. No argument there.
Hodding Carter, publisher of the Del
ta-Democrat of Miss., warns that it
would be ‘dangerously misleading to
present Rankin and Bilbo as ignorant,
violent men..and nothing more”. 1
agree with him, there are many more
appropriate, if not complimentary ad
jectives that can be used to describe
these purveyors of class hatreds.
Carter says Bilbo and Rankin are re
presentative of the VOTING majority
of their state. What we canot under
stand is how these Missrepresentatives
can be considered Duly elected and
Sworn into office when half of the citi
zens of their state are denied free vot
ing privileges. Isn’t there some law
dealing with the legality of such pro
cedure? If not, there should be.
