both events and evolutions for per
haps centuries ahead.
Democracy is truly “on trial”.
Believers in it must do much more
than just believe in it if it is to
survive, and if the “American Way
of Life” is to be maintained.
The phrase “America, the Arsen
al of Democracy” is not an empty
oir idle one, but is pointed, pertin
ent and pregnant, indeed.
THE ATOMIC AGE
More than most of us can con
ceive, unless we have given much
thought to it, the invention of atom
ic power has revolutionized human
society, for better or worse.
Scientists have prophesied that
other nations, even without some
of the recently reported “leaks” of ,
information, will have made their
own secrets of atomic energy with
in 5 or 8 or certainly 10 years.
Conceivably a future “war" could
begin and end within one or two
days! Wiping out national capit
als, industrial centers and whole
cities within hours could do it.
Now no nation is safe or secure,
with awful destructive power at its
finger tips.
ROTHERHOOD NEEDED
The immediate demand for friend
liness and brotherhood must be
realized and proclaimed from the
housetops—and LIVED
Common sense tells us that if
two men facing each other, both
armed to the teeth, do not agree a
micably to discard their weapons
they must chance the effect.

Police White
Washed In Ohio
Posse Probe
Cincinnati, Ohio, March 5th —A
casual remark by a police officer
in Cincinnati, O., was responsible
for assembling a posse of 75 to 100
men in that town to hunt down a
suspect in an attempted rape case,
City Manager Wilbur R. Kellogg
said, but his report on the incident
to the city council completely ex
onerated the city administration.
The report, requested by the Cin
cinnati branch NAACP, said a
Madisonville home had been bur
glarized and a 45 year old wife
criminally attacked. Shortly after
ward, another home in the neigh
borhood was robbed by a Negro
answering to the same description.
A group of armed men, numbering
75 to 100, gathered at the scene, to
join the manhunt.
But other factors were unearth
ed by investigation made by Ern
est J- Waits of the Committee on
Democratic Action, Harold J. Pier
son of the West End Civic League
Arnold B. Walker of the Division
of Negro Welfare and Harold D.
Snell of the Cincinnati branch NA
ACP. This group interviewed the
manager of radio station WCPO
over which a call for armed vol
unteers was broadcast. The man
ager said the call had gone out ov
er WCPO in response to a request
from Lt. Conner of the Sixth Dis
trict.
The group talked to City Manag
er Kellogg who gave them the po
lice version of the affair. The po
lice say that a radio newscaster
asked Lt. Conner whether help was
needed and Lt. Conner said it was.
Mr. Kellogg refused to issue a
public statement to the effect that
the police had not requested a civ
ilian help and would not tolerate it
in the future. He said such a state
ment would most likely result in a
riot against Negroes.
The City Council, which request
ed the City Manager to report on
the situation after receiving a let
ter from the Cincinnati branch of
the NAACP, had no comment to
make on the report.

School For Blind
To Train Woodard
New York, aMrch 6th—Isaac
Woodard, blinded Negro veteran,
whose assailant. Police Chief Lyn
wood Shull of Batesburg, S. C.,
was acquitted by an all white jury
in twenty-eight minutes recently,
left New York City last week for
the Avon School for the Blind
where it is hoped, he will be suffic
iently rehabilitated to enable him
to adjust to a normal life. Wood
ard was accompanied by Franklin
H. Williams of the NAACP legal
staff.
At the Avon School for the Blind,
in New Haven. Conn., where Wood
-ard was sent through efforts of
the NAACP and the Veterans’ Ad
ministration. Mr. Woodard will be
taught to read Braille, to write,
use the typewriter, walk alone and
prepare himself for a trade or pro
fession.
Woodard’s admission to the train
ing school marks the final chapter 1
in. one of the most shocking stor
ies in southern anti-Negro sadism
in the history of American racial
strife. The horrible torture beat
ing of the Negro soldier, still in
uniform and fresh from more than
two years in the South Pacific, be
came a cause celebre and was wide
-ly publicized in newspapers in
every section of the globe when
the facts were first discovered by
the NAACP in April. 1946. Thru
efforts of the Association, Wood
ard received medical care from
some of the nation’s leading spec
ialists but it was discovered that
his eyes were totally beyond aid.
NAACP investigators tracked
down his attacker, Police Chief
Shull, who was eventually tried
and acquitted in record time in
South Carolina.
A trust fund of $10,500 was set
un with the proceeds from individ
uals and funds collected on a na
tionwide tour of NAACP sponsor
ed mass meetings.

THE COLLEGE FRONT
(by EDWIN R. EMBREE,
President Julius Rosenwald Fund)
ooo
CHICAGO.
i Colleges have swung far toward
democracy during the past decade.
There is scarcely an institution
left, outside the segregated South,
that is not open to all students re
gardless of creed or color. An ev
en in the South recent Supreme
Court decisions have forced states
to provide much fuller facilities to
Negro students. In such border
areas as Maryland and West Vir
ginia, the state universities have
opened graduate and professional
training to all citizens rather than
go through the fantastic rigma
role of providing dual facilities in
the advanced specialities. Medical
schools are still resistant, holding
to quotas for Jews and practical
exclusion for Negroes. But even
here pressures are at last opening
the doors.
The great triumph is in faculty
appointments. Five years ago
only two Negroes held posts in in
stitutions other than Southern Ne
gro colleges. And these two were
in laboratory posts, hidden away
from the general classrooms. To
day fifty-six Negroes are teaching
in colleges and universities from
New York University to the Univ
ersity of California. While several
of these hold temporary visiting
lectureships, over half of them
have regular, permanent faculty
appointments as professors and as
sociates. This is a recognition of
Negro scholarship—and of democ
racy in education—that would have
eemed revolutionary even five
years ago.
High on college rosters today are
Allison Davis and Abraham Harris
at the University of Chicago; Char
les Buggs, professor of biology at
Wayne University; Edward Chand
ler St. Clair Drake, and Lorenzo
Turner at Roosevelt College; Wade
Ellis and Edward Palmer at the
University of Michigan; Cornelius
and Catherine Golightly at Olivet;
Adelaide Hill at Smith; Joseph
Gier at the University of Califor
nia; Ira Reid and Hale Woodruff
at New York University; Kenneth
Clark, Marion Cuthbert, Eugene
Holmes and Lawrence Reddick at
the New York City colleges, and a
host of others cvhosen soleiy be
cause of their talent,
Roosevelt College of Chicago has
set a new standard with an overt
welcome to talent regardless of
any artificial restrictions or quota
among students, faculty or trust
ees. This college is a positive and
aggressive force far beyond its
own halls, fighting for equal oppor
unities and full participation by
members of all groups in every
phase of American life.

Negroes and members of other
"minorities” are taking full advan
tage of the new opportunities- Stu
dents are qualifying at almost ev
ery college and university. The
colored professors have high stand
-ing in scholarship and high popu
larity as teachers. The service of
Negroes on boards of trustees,
while still rare, is proving useful
in every way.
There are still many ills in hu
man relations in America. It is
of special moment though, that the
colleges, which mean so much to
the future patterns of our society,
are swinging with fresh zest into
the practice as well as the teach
ing of democracy.
