Rural South Still Negroes’ Opportunity, Says Hubert
|
B - - e
By Zack T. Hubert |
In telling of this single commun-!
Ity in the heart of rural Georgia, |
the writer suggests it as an « xamnple
of what may be done all over the
south under proper leadership and
direetion. Projects of this kind are
unanswerable lessons
In the rurul community of Spring
ficld (twelve miles from the near-|
est town and railroad) in Hancock
County, Georgia, there is in process!
of development a real project in|
Negro rural improvement. The cvi-|
dent basis of this growth or de-|
velopment is the belief that farm
ownership and community coope-|
ration combined with modern and
improved methods in farming and
the handling of farm produce is
productive of good living and con
entment. A careful study of the
springfield project and the factors!
lor this improvement is enhighten
ing and may be happily suggecstive|
to some who are at present ‘‘lost”.
Good Leadership {
The community from its begin-|
ning was blessed with wise leador-|
ship. Organized soon after civil|
war days by truly pioneer spirits,|
first to undertake the buying of|
lands and the building of homes,
the record has been of continued,
if slow, growth. All those farms
purchased in the outsel, and since,
are still in the hands of Negro own- |
ers, and today there are acres by |
the thousands owned in fee simple
by these farmers. lLeadership and,
helpful cooperation account for this.
The Huberts, the Dixons, the .hmn-l
sons, the Warrens, and others|
bought lands and built homes and
reared familics out of the products!
of their simple but prudent farm- |
ing. and as [ remember from boy-|
hood it was not a one-crop system
employed Strange it is that those
early and supposedly ignorant
farmers should know: better than|
we; for practically everything need- |
ed at the home was grown on the
farn.. Cotlon indeed was the mon
ey crop, but corn, wheat, oats, po
tatoes, peas, chickens, pigs, cows,
Yorses, mules all needed in the
o ne life, were part of the farming
scheme. And these old people learn
cd this oul oi the rigerous school ot
slavery.
Proper Sons and Daughters {
Not the least instrumental in the
continued prosperity of the Spring-;
field community is the character!
of ity sons and dawghters, Hecausc
of the farm ownership or-homing
instinet grown into these children
of independent living, she gom- |
munity has been- usually successful'
in developing leaders. Out of that
insignificant place have gone tm-E
Huberts to allt parts of the country |
and into the various walks of lm-,?
the Dixons as teachers and physi i
ciang, the Harpers in Atlanta, West
at Howard university and a hot !
of other:s. And some of these have
1etminea their home contaects and
the evidence of their leadership in|
the communities’ continued :m(l.

Three Committees
| . 1
in Congress
Washington, - Dec. 22 -By The
Associated Nepgro Presse There is
a saying that the work of congress
mien is not in the making of great
epecches in the house of represen
tatives, but in the bee lhike activi
ty of their committees, If that 1s
s0, Congressman Oscar DePriest of
the First lllinois district will dis
port himsclf like a bee in threc
committecs during this, his second
tcrm in congress.
He has been placed on the fol
lowing committees: Indian affairs
Invalia pengions and enrolled bills
He is conspicuously absent from
committces in which he might ex
ert an influence in behalf of the
constituents whom he represents;
such as education, agriculture, la
bor, etc.
There is not a single southerner
on any of the DcPriest committees
division, a workshop and equip
ment; Headquarters for county de
monstration agent, and students
coming from outside communities
for the educational opportunities
here afforded. Conditions here tell
the story: Church in good condition
and painted. homes repaived and
painted, good barns buiit and paint
ed, more and better stock in evi
depre, corn and small grains
growing no vacant and uncultivat
ed farms. This 18 a condition of
hope and forward looking due to
the contact and influcnce of her
sons and daughters
Inter-racial Goodwill
Statements and experiences of
some learned writers and philoso
phers to the contray here is a Ne
gro controlled, land owning com
munity, in which the whites of sur
rounding communities and of the
entlire county take great pride. In
all this section there has never]
been a racial clash, ard the Negroes
enjoy not onl ythe goodwill, but
the respect of the whites every
where. September last a large bar
becue staged under the leadership
of B. F. Hubert, president of the
State College for Negroes and as
sisted by community leaderes
brought to Springfield men and wo-|
men of both races from all parts
of the county. They were celebrat
ing the founding of this Negro
land-owning community. They talk
ed and ate as other men and wom
en do, and had-a really good time.
Said an old Justice of the Peace,
“But one man in thirty years has
been jailed from this community
and this was for a minor offense.”
FFarming in South Negroes Hope
In Atlanta, in New York, in Chi
cago, and in many other large cen
ters are thousands of Negroes who
have left the farms of the south
for the glcaming lights of town life.
Most of these are dependent many
helpless .and some hopeless. They
have traded a great “birthright for
a mess of pottage.” Many wise men
are now sceing this. Negroes are
not alone in this, for many whites
nave done Likewise, as witness the
present tendency farmward. But
the farming of the south is a par
ticular heritage of the Negro; the
art which, in mass, he has best
learned wnd upon the improved
knowledge and practice of which h
can win a real independence. It is

hours, take it from this Vagrancy of Society, were chock full of mirth
We had a torrid time! Mattie Blackshear was there after about two
weeks of lethargy since her return to the whirl. “Bee' Blackshear's

he refuses to stop for even a red hight, was a true simile for Florida. In

combination Seven Year's Itch and Saint Vitus Dance after a ‘shot’ of
monkey glands. Howard McElrath had to sit and take notice as kthel
Moore and her little sassy “barb” flaunted an artificial air of non

to dismiss thoughts of the “Ole Rocking Chair” and its latest invahd.

belle and co-ed of Spelman college, went over big. kssaying to plug
:he social gap of the week-end, Cecil just about bridged the gap hter

Miss Carroll endeared herself to her Ira Street invites Jaunty belles
present were Misses Melbahue Bryant, Lowse Leah Day, Muriel Al

no part of my business or intention
to urge peoples 'return to the farms
but I do urge those now there to re
main and ‘'dig in’ Keep open
minds and learn what it means to
farm. Hundreds in this season of
want and depression, who, coming
to the cities, have lost their jobs
and their living, are learning the
‘cayon of their sorrow. Think of the
folks at Springfield and do like
wise. Dr. James H. Dillard has re
cently expressed it thus: “We beat
the air with more or less vain
words when we grow eloquent over
other ways and means of keeping
people in the country. Education,
good roads, and other improve
ments are all right, and we do well
to push forward in such ways. But
whatever we may do .this owner
ship of homes is the basic need.”
Springfield is only an example
of what may be duplicated in hun
dreds of places all over the south:
and this will make for racial stabi
lization ,growth, and wealth.
