SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 1944 Ten Per Gent The announcement of Secretary of War Stimson that Negro troops will soon be increased from 9 per cent to 10.4 per cent of the total strength of the Army, with 50 per cent of them already overseas, emphasizes the extent of our contribution to the war effort. It is doubtful If as much as 50 per cent of the white troops in the Army are overseas.

With a Negro total of 709,280 soldiers, the Secretary asserts that approximately 14 per cent are scheduled for assignment to combat organizations. But in this war, more than in the past, every man is vital to the war effort, whether he carries a machine gun, cooks meals or lays out an airfield. The vast army of Neero truck drivers hurrying sup plies to all parts' of the British Isles make possible the bombing raids on German industrial cities. If there were no one to lay out and service the numerous air fields in England, Italy and Sicily, American raids on FESTUNG EUROPA would be impossible and the fighting would be reduced to a stalemate. Negro engineer troops laboriously cutting roads through the wilderness of Assam and Burma, make possible the increasing attacks on Japanese positions athwart the way to China.

Land based American air strength in the South Pacific is dependentupon the hard work of Negro Engineers and air forces auxiliaries who are seldom featured in the news, but are always doing their job. And now Negro combat troops are coming into their own wherever there is fighting, whether in Italy, New Guinea or Bougainville. We should ail resolve that this vital ten per cent shall come back to a better America, an America with less color discrimination and segregation, an America in which they shall play a political and economic role equal to that of other citizens. They are earning this place by their sacrifices. It is up to us to see that they get it, and the time to begin work on that project is right now.

Poll Tax Stalemate Senator James M. Mead of New York admits that he does not have sufficient votes to break down the Southern filibuster against the anti poll tax bill. Jubilant, Southern Senators have been saying they will filibuster against the bill until the crack of doom, and there is not the slightest hope that a cloture vote will cut off the flood of their verbiage. If we are to judge by past experiences with the numerous anti Iynchlng bills, there is not the faintest chance of passing this anti poll tax bill, either before or after election. This kind of legislation passes the House of Repre sentatives more or less easily, but it never gets by the Senate because of the demagogic bloc there representing the Southern oligarchy of planters, merchants and bankers whose political life depends upon keeping all the Negro and most of the white workers away from the polls.

These people thrive on minority rule, naturally battle to maintain it and hate democracy as much as a Hitler, a Stalin or a To jo. I Even though there seems to be a little chance of compelling the Deep South to end the poll tax, it is well to keep it on the defensive, as the current fight has done. It is very difficult to defend such things as the poll tax, lynching, jim crowism and other social evils afflicting Dixie; and their defenders who profess to be men and women of Christian character, must eventually suffer a moral degradation which will destroy trjeir leadership. To constantly preach one thing and "practice another has always been fatal to moral integrity, and one sees evidence of this on every hand in the South; and to a lesser extent in the rest of the country where natives have permitted the Southern ideology to make inroads. If Southern leadership were actually stalemated, it "would, for its own sake, do away completely with the color line in all its forms, thus inaugurating a spiritual resurgence which would make the South and the rest of the country truly the great bulwark of freedom.

Distinctions of so called race and color would soon vanish and equality would shortly fuse the Nation into an indivisible and invincible unity. But instead, the Sooth's old ignorant fight against the forces of the future continues on all fronts, and it must be met in the legislature, in the courts, in education, on theob wherever it lifts Its hydra head. Time is on the side of the righteous battalions. 'Hands Off Empire1 Those who thought naively that this war was being fought to free oppressed peoples from imperialistic yokes, got a real, awakening last week when the Right and Left in British politics united in the House of Commons to cry "Hands off the Empire" and to denounce the sacrifice of any imperial advantages after the war. These tirades were directed against the United States which supposedly has designs on British trade and bases which enable the British ruling class to live in the style to which it has long been accustomed.

So the Atlantic Charter is out of the window as far as the rulers of England are concerned, and they intend to continue exploiting the colored peoples of the world after the war as they did before.

As a technique of so cial control it is time consuming and of limited scope, but it is also a tough fibred rorm or mental ex ercise calculated to make men think before they act In our complex and highly diversified modern so ciety, it has fallen into disuse. As an institution, it flourishes almost nowhere but in the small New Eng land town hall meeting. Neverthe less, a revival of the forum in all American communities for the pur pose or affording tne people opportunities to debate the serious do mestic and international problems facing them is earnestly neede'd.

THE confusion that exists in the common mind about post war international co operation, lor ex ample, is understandable in the light of our methods of disseminat ing information. The press and the radio may seem impersonal and objective, but they are highly partisan. Tell me what daily paper a man reads regularly and exclusive ly, and what news commentators he listens to faitfully and I will tell you what he thinks about national legislation to draft manpow er, the soldier vote, the fourth term, or any other issue.

None other of God's creatures possesses this divine Other animals can grimace, snarl and bark, but NONE except man can laugh. There is nothing so STIMULATING as a good laugh, and nothing more readily drives away care, anger and trouble. If men were able to laugh more OFTEN and more freely, the chances are there would be little strife and few wars, because it seems that man only begins to get in grave difficulties when he becomes grim. Generally speaking vthe laughing man is a CIVILIZED man, and' the more civilized and CULTIVATED man becomes, the less likely is he to take himself or others too seriously. More than others' he appreciates that nobody, including himself, is perfect; that all people are subject to error; that there is something a little RIDICULOUS about most posturing and affectation.

Indeed, in order to keep themselves in good HUMOR, the ancient Romans possessed a little household god, a comical creature, whom they called Ridiculous. No matter how SERIOUS the occasion, one glance at this comical little figure was sufficient to restore good humor. It is UNFORTUNATE that society no longer has that little god sitting on its mantelpieces. Nothing is more HEALTHY or more calculated to cure despondency than a good laugh, and for this reason society has always valued its humorists. Official JESTERS have often been a fixture of courts, and the most welcome person in home or tavern is the zany who can keep people, high or low, in stitches.

A good JOKE is more valuable to man than a political tract or a blueprint for making humanity perfect. The humorist knows that humanity will NEV Pursuit Of Democracy MARJORIE McKENZIE ER be perfect and that it is folly to expect It A perfect humanity would be a pretty DULL one. Instead of being driven to TEARS by the faults and foibles of the human race, the humorist laughs at them, and in so doing makes us aware of our frailties and thus more TOLERANT of others. Laughter is also a great EDUCATOR because it forces the eccentric, the crude and the pompous Individuals into a saner appraisal of themselves and their associates. Much of the trials and tribulations suffered by humanity have been brought on by SOLEMN, serious people lacking the vision and understanding to see how FUNNY" they were.

The FANATICAL and humorless zeal with which they have harried humanity (always of course its own good!) has periodically bathed the world in tears and bldod, and is doing so again today. What is needed more than ever is MORE funny stories, more clever jests, more witty books that bring pleasant pains of LAUGHTER to the diaphragm and floods of JOYOUS tears from the eyes. There is too much SOLEMNITY abroad today for society's own good, and nothing routs the stuffed shirts, the self appointed Messiahs, the posturing politicians and the exalted generals than a gale of gusty laughter from the populace. If. MOST of their plans and programs for world saving were so greeted, they would take themselves less seriously and have more RESPECT for those humble millions whom they would use as pawns in the satisfaction of their egos.

Let us ALL try to laugh more, to see the funny side of things, to sharpen our sense of wit, to treasure the humorous tale and the good JOKE. We shall all be the healthier, pleasanter and HAPPIER for it.

It overpowered the Pagan Roman empire, created a new Europe, and then confronted a new political power, the modern State. I have one more point to make before I get back to cap i a 1 i m. Of course cannot compare my knowledge of the Church with that of a catholic. but anyone can see that, historical ly, the Church demonstrates a historical process as inevitable as day and nie ht. For centuries the Church opposed tne state, ana grew strong er and greater, men enurenmen compromised with the State; the result was disastrous to Church.

GHASTLY CRUELTIES OF CHURCH, STATE These churchmen used the politi cal power (which is physical force) to serve the Church; the result was that Catholics left the Church and founded the Protestant churches; the Christian unity was broken; the Church lost Germany, the Low Countries, England, the British Commonwealth, France, and Spain? They used police force to maintain Christianity as the control ling power in the lives of men and look at the western world now. HOES anyone want to compare "the ghastly cruelties of laizzes faire capitalism" with the mercies of the Emperor Charles the Fifth was kind, he hated cruelty: and I am not sar castic, he really did. So he decreed that men who, under torture, renounced freedom of thought must be killed mercifully; and 40,000 were, one summer in the Low Countries alone. Those who did' not repent, of course, were broken on the wheel or burned alive, in pub lic, by the official executioner. Two million Jews and Spanish Africans were robbed, murdered, or driven out of Spain to starve.

CATHOLICS DID NOT START INQUISITION Now when I say "The Inquisition." any Protestant thinks, 'The Catholic Church," and shudders. Most Catholics think, "She's attack ing the Church." the fact is that the Church did not begin the Inquisition, and could not possibly have carried it out. The Church is not police force. THE State began and carried out that horror of atrocities. The King of Spain asked churchmen to institute the Inquisition.

They did, believing that the political power could be used for good ends. And later they tried to stop the Inqui sition, and could not; it is very easy to Increase the political power. and not easy to stop it when you nave made it stronger than you are. CAN'T PROMOTE HUMAN GOOD BY FORCE Anyone who imagines that a use of force can promote human has forgotten, or abandons or denies, the fundamental tenet of Chris tianity, which is individual liberty. The Catholic Church has never done that.

But churchmen did; misled by (I think) false reasoning of the same kind that deludes so many Americans today, they used the State's police force in an attempt to control the State's subjects for the good of the subjects and the good of the Church and State. THIS is the point I make, and I know no exception to it in history: WHENEVER ANY GROUP OF MEN USES THE POLITICAL POWER TO DO GOOD TO THE MEN OR TO ADVANCE THEIR OWN INTERESTS, THE RESULT IS DISASTROUS TO THE PURPOSE THEY TRY TO ACCOMPLISH. AND THE EFFORT AT WAYS AROUSES A BITTER PUB UU KaMSISaNTMENT, BUT THIS RESENTMENT IS NOT DIRECTED AGAINST THE STATE; IT IS Church Colleges Art GoocT Indication of Christian Practices rfo' rlWes in tne umtea oi rr. am anR sixini ucr xiiinnn ji sion to that one college in the fan or uus have her.
