The Negro Looks Back and Ahead
With the passing of 1931, the world in genera] and the
Negro in particular can look back en one of the most disast
rous and unfortunate vears in peace-time history. The de
pression, which many “experts” said could not last through
1931, still has its pall about us and it seems as if many
days must pass before the country recovers from its fin
ancial illness.
The Negro's economic bulwarks, never yet strong, have
been assailed in all manner of wavs, Banks in Chicago,
Philadelpha and New York have crashed. loaded to the top
with Negro savings. The race has been displaced in jobs
and has been driven from manv of those which through
many years he has claimed as his own. The Liggest busiy
ness enterprize of Aframerica, the Nationa] Benetit Insu
rance Co., has tottered on the brink of ruin. A host of
smaller busiresses have passed into history and today peo
ple are begging for alms who in vears gone by gave liberal
ly themselves to the cause of charity.
Interracially, the Negoroes of Atlanta have witnessed
the holding of an Ecumenical conference where the city
camouflaged its begey men of racial animosity and paraded
them before international ¢iunts of church thought as
emissaries of Brotherly love to the Negroes. The electro
cution last February of seven men for a murder and the
imposing of the death sentence of eight boy: in Alabama
are atrocities which even Georein's clean lyncehing slate
in 1931 cannot quite counterbalance.
Politically the Negro has found new grievances against
the Hoover administration Lut has shown more interest in
his government, with a distinct partiality for the democrats,
and the end of the year finds the republicans making seri
ous efforts to regain their lost Negro support.
But the fundamental interest of the Negro in any
year is eccnomic—and financial suecess must be his own
product. He cannot obtain this politically for if he could
great Chicago would not have its thousands of starving
brown men and women s there the Negro has risen to
his greatest pclit’e:]l heizhts, As soon as our economic
footing is sound, we may expect the respeet of other races,
even thcugh they secretly hate us, as a perusal of the his
tory of the Jews will show.

-~ T're-kesson o 19371 and the lean years before is easy to
see but its fellowing is unlikely. Since the Negro depends
mainly upon whites for employment and since black laborers
are turned off and whites hired in their places when hard
times strike the nation. it is obvious that the race, to be as
sured of werk in times like these, must found and support its
own business enterprises, and that the leaders who suffer
indirectly from unemployment should take the steps to be
gin worthwhile institutions.
If the race can but learn this primary lesson in econo
mics, then the depression as witnessed in the last few years
will work toward everlasting good and the Negro will be
able to face the next cycle of financial instability with the
certainty that he will not have to give up his job in a white
concern to needy whites.

The Advantages of Co-operation!
The year 1931 taught the Negro
many things but none of more im
portance than the advantages to be
gained through co-operation. A
few major, and a great many min
or, organizations have come into
being as the result of this co
operation and when the principle
has been thoroughly sold to the
masses we can expect great things
from them.
In co-operating there is entailed
a definite obligation on the part of
all concerned and just to the extent
that each fulfills the obligation
will the success of the undertak
ing be assured.
Right now the Negro is chiefly
concerned in building up his eco
nomic enterprises. He has learned
that it is impossible to support his
churches, schools and social or
ganizations without a definite
background of revenue-producing
concerns.
In spite of the bugaboo that the
small business cannot exist or com
pete with the large ones the Negro
is finding that when all the neces
sary elements of good business and
good management are brought to
gether and all co-operating to
all to meet your family and dis
cuss Low you can curta’l some of
the woe.ess oxpenditures and con

Heretofore, the Negro has not
paid o sufficient attention to the

management, relying more on an
inconsistent racial appeal, with the
result that a great many of our
undertakings failed or did not pro
