The Liberty of the Press is the Palladium of our rights JUNIUS Writing editorially on the resentment taken by Russian Reds against illtreatment meted out to a Negro who was beaten up by Americans and then thrown out of a mess hall, a report of which appears in another column of this impression, the Pittsburgh Courier says: It was probably invitable that some Americans in Soviet Russia would in time give vent to their racial bias. It so happened the other day when a number of American engineers ejected a Negro workman from the common mess hall of the tractor factory where the former are employed as experts.
They soon found that they were in Russia and not in America. The trade union controlling the factory and composed of twenty six different nationalities and races, drew up a resoltion declaring that the Soviet Union is the fatherland of all workers, including Negroes, and reminding the American engineers that race prejudice is a part of the capitalist, not the communist order of society, and will thus not be tolerated under the Bolshevist regime. It concludes by warning. We will not allow the ways of bourgeois America in the The Negro worker is our brother like the American worker. We castigate any who dares to destroy in the Soviet land the equality we have established for all proletarians of all nations, In this connection it is interesting to note that the powerful industrial unions control the Soviet republic. Americans will find no sympathy for their color psychosis and anti Negro propaganda there. The Russians recognize it for the social menace it is and will not tolerate it.
What the working people voted down has not a chance of surviving in a land run by them.
THE WORKMAN, SATURDAY AUGUST 30, 1930 Consistency, thou art, indeed. jewel, coveted and rare, But also is simplicity jewel, beautiful and fair; Tho some disown, still be it known, Simplicity, in word and deed, Is still an ever urgent need!
Deception and extravagance, High sounding, subtle flatteries, Afford delight for passing hour, Leaving, perhaps, fond memories, That in their turn, must soon give way To sullen thoughts and dire unrest That surge within the human breast.
If one woul have, each passing day, peace enduring, constant, true, Let him all arrogance and pride Within his heart fully subdue; Thus living he will fully know Enduring peace, and too, shall see The virtue of SIMPLICITY!
FORWARD MARCH. This is the command that will fall from the lips or the President of the Panama Canal West Indian Employees Association in the Siifer Park at Colon, at 30 on the morning of Monday September 1st. Labor Day.
The command will be heard and obeyed by nis comrades and rellow workers of the West Indies in the service or the United States Government in the Canal Zone. And they will march off to the strains of martial music in one body, with one aim, one aspiration, and one destiny, to demonstrate the value of co operative bargainingof their acceptation of the axiom that, the laborer is worthy of his hire of their desire to gather into their told all those who are scattered in the bye ways and hedges. Their banners will introduce them as they march past. Their mottos will reveal the treasured thoughts they possess regarding their social, economic, and industrial salvation, and they will speak in the language of action.
As the people march through the streets, the mottos they bear will speak in silence, but with force convincing, that they are not only marching that day as a demonstration of abulity to do so; but that they are actually on the march of progress compatible with the necessities of civilization in relation to self and progeny.
Before we go any further, we wish once more to give public expression to our interestedness in the work or the Panama Canal West Indian Employees Association. We have watched its doings, and we have noted its accomplishments. In a number of ways, its activities nave corrected many disabilities from which silver employees nad suttered from the commencement of their service with the Panama Canal, due to the dual indifFifty Years of Activity An Appreciation of Court Brock No.
6725 Ancient Order of Foresters HOMELY PHILOSOPHY By GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON DO YOU KNOW HOW TO ENJOY LIFE?
Strange as it appears, there are few people who really know how to enjoy life. They take holidays, trips into the green country, or to palatial cities, play at games or dance to rhythmic music; yet they are only going through with action. They are not joyous and gay while doing so, they are lugging along their troubles.
To enjoy, one must learn to throw overboard all thoughts of worry and care, and live in the present hour fully, freely, and wholly.
