ZIFF CO., Chicago, New York, Los Angeles Negroes Still Losing Jobs In the unemployment situation, which seems to lo growing more acute as the winter season rapidly approa es, Negroes are still losing jobs and joining the ranks of the unemployed. In some local instances, where Negroes have been re plactd with members of other races, it appears that the took advantage of their white employers and betraved tho confidence they had reposed in them, with the result that they were discharged and their places given to whitbs, There are many whit~ families who prefer Negro help, but this Negro help need not think that they can do as they please, cart and carry off their emplovers’ goods and be longings, stage swell parties at the expense of their em ployers and then maintain a strangle held on their jobs, This is just not the oven season for such stunts and carrying-ons. : Really, the Negro is too prene to get the impression that he is a fixture on the job and that the “boss” can not get along without him. Years age there was no interracial competition in the field near aristocrats and ps-udo-aristoerats considred it a mark of traditional distinetion to maintain a bevy of uni fermed black servants, a hanc-over from the plantation days of the slave-holding hcirarchy: and thus the Negro domestic servant became a byword and institution in the South. In the changes of the times and fierce and .keen competiticn for jobs, of whatever sort, the Negro laborer, both skilled and unskilled. finds himsclf facing an entirely new and strange (to him) situation, and unless he can ad just himself to it and meect this competition with improved and more efficient service, he will lose many more such jobs. All white people are not unfriendly to Negroes and there are many of them who still prefer Negro domestic servants, but whenr thcss corvants become oo expensive and unbearable, it hes o tendency to shake their faith sono what in the entire race, and thus they simnlv do what {5 - consider the next best thing—give the job to some member of their own race. Our efforts to get jols for our people are all richt and a fine move, but it appears to The Defender that along with the job getting movement should be included a course teoc ing our people how to hold their jobs after they Tope £ : —Houston Informer '«-“‘ﬁ eHE [FARLEM /& | \!U'.— = 5‘/' .

Fourth of July retains only a slight flavor of the Revolution Storekecepers display - firecrackers for sale in their bathrooms and | cellars instead of in their show cases. Their customers shoot them | off' when the policeman cn the beat isn't looking. In {i*s flouting of the law there is just a vostige of the spirit of revolt ‘hat flamed when Crispus Attucks died on Boston Commons. But not : trace of Washington's magnetism or Lin coln's sage humor colors the mood of their anniversaries, Thanksoiv ing often comes at a time when the nation has little cause to be grate ful. Labor Day is an excuse for wealthy people to indulge in an extra long week-end of motorins or yachting. To us groundlnes moast of our holidays are merely extra Sundayvs. The birthday of Jesus is the uni- Hue exception, On Christmas th> spirit of generousness and hon piness is abroad, and this reflec:: the character of the Nazarene whose life the day commemorates. I think this is because the da does not mark the anmversiry of an event, but recalls the appear ance of a marvelous personality. It is doubtful 1f the early Christians knew the actual date of Josus birth. And since that time kinos and parlisments and popes have tampered with the calendar. Thc precise time of His advent into the world is shiouded in uncertaintly. But His way of living was so vivia and. significant, so appedling to the hearts of the millions thzt nfi more than nineteen centuries jle 88 still a living force, and not merely a great name. Caesor.

What they feel is permon ent and universal. Jesus knew thar fhe most enduring fecling is the desire to be happy. The first _ ﬁgxciple of His gospel is that the desire for happiness is dignified . @nd virtuous. Sick men want to be . Hungry people want to be drd. Outeasts want to be respect __@ble. Therefore; He healed the sick. S e R fed the hungry and taught vaga bonds self-respect. “ In each of our political conven tions the speech of the temporary chairman, the first long oration of ’the meeting, is supposed to sound | the keynote of the pfatform of the party for the coming campaign. 1 ithink the first miracle Jesus per formed can be called the keynote of His ministry. It was the miracle 'at Cana. On that occasion He d.d inot cast out a devil or make a ‘cripple walk without crutches. He turned water intc wine. The mit acle was performed unconditional- Iy. The guests were not commanded to sin no more. The Bible implies that most of the guests at the wed ding feast did not know the best wine had been made out of water Which meuans that Jesus' sole mo .tive was to prevent a joyous shin dig from being a bust. He did not want the pariy to break up before the Cana Happiness Boys felt moist enough to croon “Sweet Adeline.” The Gospel of Happiness For centuries the churches have taught that it was Jesus' mission to save the world from sin. It seems to me that He spent most of His time enjoving Himself and re lieving the spiritual ond bodily unrest of others. At least that is how I understand the story of His life as it is told in the Gospels I do not remember that He cver (preached a sermon against danc ing, drinking or gambling. Most of the natives of Palestine. like the majority of the people of Harlem. | were a fairly decent lot. and Jesus inever went out of His way to de tnounce their petty faults. Like imost civilized meen of all ages. IHe {seemed to be of the opinion that jmorality is a personal matter and |of no great importance. | Indeed, there is a case on record Iwhich shows He had small reg:rd for the type of man whose only {merit is his goodhess.

In His talk with the woman of Samaria He did not tell her to leave the man she was living with. lWhen they brought Him a wom jan taken in adultery He said ‘I do Inot condemn you.” Perhaps the clearest expression of His view of life was given at the time when the Fharisees critic ised His companions for plucking corn on the Sabbath. “Man was not made for the Sabbath.” Jesus re plied. “The Sabbath was made for man.” This means, in Seventh ave niiec words. “When pleasure inter feres with religion. cut out the treligion.” | !

We would like to disagree with |Dr. Walton. The Land-Grant Col |leges are supported by funds ob 'tained from Federal Taxation. As la citizen of the United States of | America, surely any citizen should I be interested in the way that mon ey i1s spent.

The funds do not {they come from the people and it belong to the Boards of Directors: ‘ thardly seems in uccordance, with a Democracy to have a Board of Di rectors say, ‘We spend this money as we please, and you will like it or not.” In this sense, no citizen of the United States is an “outsider.’ World 2 Friday Dixon (We are all in on it as much as Dr. Waltoh or his Board of Direc tors. at least in the theory of the American State.

We {believe there is something wrong ‘about a school that cannot keep ‘teachers. Either they do not pick jout the right ones to begin with, or ithey do not furnish attractive liv 'ing conditions or salaries after they get them. Many of our private schools have small annual turn overs, and this is the first sign of nealthy academic set-up.
