We are not responsible for unsolicited manuscripts or photographs-. Phone MUrdock 4092 SUBSCRIPTIONS 10 Cents Per Copy S2.50 Per Year Russell Not for FEPC Georgia's pet for the Democratic presidential nomination, Senator Richard Russell, was in Portland last week · and drawled his contempt of a strong, compulsory FEPC (fair employment practice commission) bill. The senator seems to "think that it's a state problem, not to be tampered with by the federal government. · Russell claims he has always been a friend of the Negro . and has done many things to up their plight in his native state. . How he justifies this claim is a mystery to many when the low segregated conditons and practices of his home state are · taken into consideration. ' The Georgian candidate could well bear in mind that the ' people Of the United States are guaranteed civil rights under ,_the Col)stitutiop.. When states attempt to bar civil lioerties to certaiJi segments of its population because of color, religion • or creed in direct defiance of the cou"ntry's constitutionaf law and guarantee, then the only recourse for the minority is to appeal to the federal government for enforcement of their rights. An outsider-non-American-will u n doubted I y be shocked to 0 learn that we have to enact civil rights ordinances in order to protect the liberty of the individual. Isn't it a paradox for America, the land of freedom and equality, to have to enact such shameful legislation as the \ ;;:: ;::ts on Interracial ;Life Topic of Berry Talk I I I BY JOY BROCK St.a.fr Writer, The Challenger · Mr. Ed.win C. Berey was guest speaker on the Men's Day program at Bethel AME church. The topic was "Blueprint in the Fu1 tu.re of Race Relations." Mr. Berry gave nine important points and elaborated on each. The points were predominantly directed to the Negro to make him also aware of his responsibility in the progress of democracy. Point I was the importance of 1 "Learning the True Facts" about , rac~-relations and eliminating stereotyping. He stated that many Negroes believe that just because i they are Negroes, they automatically understand race relations and the information they deliver and believe is often times false. Point 2-Understanding the True Meaning of Democracy. Every individual has to work for his freedom; nothing is given to us free. Then we should obtain what rightfully belongs to us according to our own merits or demerits, but not just because we are Negroes. Point 3-Decide Whether or Not We W.ant Integration or Segregation. Many Negroes have not decided as yet. This is evidenced in self segregation in public places personal prejudicial atti- , tudes an~1stereotyping. Point 4-Teaching Our Children Freedom. Our children learn from us. It we instill in their minds that their color is a handicap, and because they are Negroes they can't do certain things, they will soon believe iL and act accordingly. We must teach our childrc.n to respect themselves, hold their heads high and that they too are American citizens, privileged to compete in our society according to their own individual merits. Point 5-Stop Ha.Jing Ourselves. We need to have more confidence ,. in ourselves. We must learn \o be strong enough to rise above1conflict and be proud we are Negroes. Point 6-Stop Shifting , the Blame. We often find ourselves not facing reality and searching for a scapegoat to place the biame of our errors. Sometimes the Negro will blame it on his color or on the white man, when actuaUy it was on his ow.n demerits. We should look at ourselves and see if we are justified in these dccusations or are just afraid to ,face our own errors. Point 7-Paying Our Own y,tay. We must learn to stop begging for the things we need and buying the things we want. Mr. Berry sighted examples as fine ·cars and clothes, but no home. We should also send contributions to organizations which are working for the bettermen of the human race. He said, ''We have to pay rent for the space we occupy on earth." Point 8-Stop Being Prejudice. A good share of Negroes are prejudice and don't realize it. Many Negroes can be and are just as prejudiced as Caucasians. It is depicted in their conversations, mode of thinking and actions. We have to eliminate prejudices for better race relations. Point 9-Participation in Community Projects, Race relations can best be improved through cooperation or both Negro and Caucasions in community projects. Here the Negro is proving that he too can carry his load and stand up and be counted. Mr. Berry's speech was factual and down to earth. He portrayed it in such a way that the audience could see themselves in many of the situations he presented. IL was a speech that stimulated thought and needed lo be heard over and over again so we can see ourselves as others see us. PORTLAND CHALLENGER Ike Has Wrong Slan_t on FEPC Dwight Eisenhower is •·unwilling to believe that punitive federal law, when it penetrates into the area reserved for the states, will meet the problem"-in thjs rase the problem is equality for :'Ill with strong backing from the federal governmenL . . , Although he is against the controversial compulsory FEPC legisJation, Ike has reversed his stand on army -segregation. Said the former gerrerol: "We can no longer afford to· hold onto the anachronistic pdi,ciples of race seg• regation in the armed services." Knocking off the general practice of the--American public to stereotype, thus ignoring Eisenhower's former military capacity, 1t is unfortunate for him to take such an unfavorable stand on civil rights for the man has the other attributes that would make him fine presidential timber. He could be a good man. Bogle Soys: Friday. June 27, 1952 Deep, conscientous thought and acttions should be given rights. ======BY RICHARD BOGLE========= With the recent focusing of so much attention on Congressional investigations some deep and conscientious thought and action regarding the rights of those investigated is needed. In many instances the nature of the investigations has been that of a trial ... a trial however that sometimes leaves the person investigated without cow·t room procedures to defend his actions or his reputation. I am not saying that these investigations are not necessary. They are. Congress has authority to do this that stems from their power to legislate. The scope of national affairs has grown and right along with that so has the number of subjects that our congressmen must be well informed. Without first hand information our congressional leaders would be legislating in a vacuum. Many of the committees conducting these investigations do them in a fair and judicious manner. But even though the affair is handled fairly sometimes the press, radio and television spread the accusations throughout the whole country. Senator Kefauver has introduced a bill to congress calling for a set order of procedure in th06e investigations. No action has been taken on this bill or similar ones. Since the purpose of congressional probes is to seek information some guarantees should be made to those individuals being investigated that protection will be given their basic individual rights.
