Racial Economic Background For Successful Prosecution Of i CHICAGO. I1U Feb. 19 In a scathing editorial denouncing the biased policy of the Red Cross in segregating the blood donated by Negroes from that given by whites, the Christian Century magazine, dated February 11. branded the action as Nazi like and distinctly harmful. Claiming that Negroes consider the "War for Democracy" idea advanced by the Ur ito i States and Great, Britain as a compound of hypocrisy and deception, the editorial states that this feeling of bitterness has been made worse by the action of the Red Cross.

The refusal of the Navy to accept Negroes in any other capacity except as kitchen menials, the btas ei policy of the Army, the discrim ination practiced azmnst Negro workers defense piants have been responsible for the attitude of the Negro toward this "war for says the Christian Century. However, the Red Crops Is reported as attempting to undo the harm that has alremiv been done by this blood segregation pol icy, wpicn is said to oe nased on the same principle as Nazi loc itnne, "Think with your A Prerequisite War At Home was to spend Its money mistakes and get going.

It would mark the beginning of the end of the racial superiority bugaboo throughout the universe. But the aove is based on a hypothesis. The gods of destiny may have no such drama to unfold this war. If we sit around and pout, waiting for some sucn miracle to happen, we would be guilty of as much ignorance as the white man has shown. There are too many things that we can do here at home to bring about our "Double victory.

The road may be more tortuous and more roundabout, but the fruit will be just as sweet.
