July 3 (ANP) Shifting aspects of the political, social and economic depression problems which Rtrimsrla Neeroea in particular and affect thdlivea of all Americans, require a broadening and intensification of the work of the National Association ior tne Advancement oi Colored People, Joel L.

Spingarn, president, told delegrta to the 26th annual conveptlon of the organiza tion, at a aias meeting nem in the auditorium of the Vahon high chool, Tuesday evening. Spingarn, angxslar, deft and diplomatic, placing hie shots like a master strategist on the tennis courts, made, the convention'j keynote speech in which he uncovered and opened fr discussion the two issues which delegates seem to feel are most important to the Association at this time: How far shall the Association expand its program beyond the field of civil rights and to what extent must such an organization solicit the co operation whites? The keynoter addressed himself to the last issue first. Without condescension, without directly nam ing the issue, he spoke out of the life and heart of that type of white person which, to most colored Americans, appears to be rapidly becoming extinct, thosa white Americana distinguished In their own right and among their own people to whom justice in America, for all Americans, has been an ideal to be passionately sought. "I csnnot be happy, I cannot be free," asserted Spingarn, "as long as there Is one American, one whit man or on black man, in America who is not free and happy." Witn a aeiicacy rare among whites who give their ability and their means" for the solution of racial and class problems in the United 3tate, this man of letters, aer, honest to the touch, described some of the trials which such men and women must endure trial which they do not regret nor attempt to evade, out searing to the soul and confusing to the mind. Twenty or.

years ago this man, wealthy in his own right, distinguished In a field far removed from racial reiatiors, had visited in St. Louis. He was invited to address the members of the City club. He chose to speak upon the raoe problem. "As I spoke to them," described Mr.

Spingarn, "I noted from the beginning the Indifferent expression on their faces. Then, of a sudden, something happened. One by one, they got up and began to leave, registering their lack of interest and their disapproval. I kept on until I had completed my apeoch. Only 25 pr cent of the audience was left.

But a I spoke to these business and civlo leaders, I looked beyond them to the wails where stood the Negro waiters. They glued their eye upon me. My message struck home to them. Though ail the members of the City, club had' left, I would not have been alone. I knew from the expression in the faces of these waiters that I had a duty to perform, that there was a spiritual unity between them and ma' which permeated that room ajid reached through and beyond the Indiffer ence of the so called leacers.

That incident, 21 years ago, was so to speak, Spingara's baptism of Are. Ever since he has been working on the problem, not almply for the Negro, but for America, for human beings, a lover of men working for their mancipation. Must the races work together? He belongs to the dominant race. He answers that the burden which the white race bears cannot be lift ed without the help of the black race. His answer seemed to be that if the dominant race needs the help of the weaker race, certainly the weaker ra.ee must avail itself of all the aid It can attract from the dominant group.

Spin gam believe the two races must work together in a spirit of mutual. determined helpfulness, without condescension and with mutual appreciation of their oommoa Spingarn also answers the question as to how far whites should go in co operating with Negroea. His spirit rules out the fear of whites "running things," imposing their will because they jive their means. True lovers of justice, he declared in effect, will work and plan for the best way to achieve their ends, without respect to color, without respect to means, without respect to position. They will seek the dominance of neither rroup, but only the dominance, of what is tru' and His address indicated unmistak ably that the leaders fee! that the tim has come to expand the Associations program, to push fur ther ahead, to get a gratp on and a control of the new problems.

The question has been asked. To the left toward radicalism, tae unvarnished truta, or to the right toward conservatism, to what is expedient? To the left, answered Spingarn. Not to communism, not to revolution, but to deadly grips with 'the fundamentals of the economic and social system which is responsible for poverty and injustice the United States. In th 26 yeaie of it existence. President Spingarn declared, the Association has performed invalu able service.

He described some of its achievements, advancing the frontier of civil liberty for the Negro, the freedom which is lettered in the Emancipa tion troclamation. But he confessed that the record of the past was not enough, that these duties well done had justified the Association ex. stench, but had not set the limits of it functions. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Is now full grown, asserted President Spingarn, in the flower of its power and must accept the responsibility of seeking the solution by every means with.n it power of all problems which array race agiinst race and class against class in the United States. What Should Be Our Race's Attitude Toward Abyssinia Kditor, Th PitUburgh Courier, Pa.

Dear Sir: In your Jul 15 issus, thr appeared a letter which took issue with Mr. Frank St. Claire for his views en the American Negro's attitude towards Abyssinia. Now, with all due respect Jo its author, I would like to answer the questions asked in this Jettsr and. at the am a few thoughts for the general benefit of the Negroes whose thoughts on the race problem are east in the sam vein.

The auUiore5 of the letter to which I refer signed herself "Missie Kelley, a race loving woman," but. Judging from th question she asked In her letter, her love springs more from natural impulse than from any deep seated sentiment based on reason. "In reading over the news in your paper," says she, "I ran across his article (Mr. Frank St. Clair's) concerning Abyssinia.

And I wondered hat he meant by 'stay at Wher is our home? When did we ft a homer Does he call this his home? WTien did ws Com in possession of this great American government? Where ar our Negro presidents? 'When will bifcla to rule this so called nom? Ah! As one awakened out of sleep, I'm Jost to the fact that this la our horn. What Ls ha talking about tailing America tht black man's horn?" Th Uarned Wabater define bom as a "dwelling houf; th hous in which on residence." This perjfie definition, however, has rvevj only as a has for various rl attraction which go Into 1 the making of our conception of home. Immediately think of such things as peace, love and kindness when the word hotmn is mentioned. Now, since Miss Minnie Kelley's letter was burdened with so many Christian like sentiments, take it that her conception of home is baed on these tions, and, albeit they are beautiful, desirable and obtainaoie, yet they are wholly inadequate a bae upon which to build logical reasons why the Negro should not call America his home. Negro slaves toiled hard to help build this nation.

Their very souls have gone into the making of many of its institutions. Each day their labor was added to the gradual expansion of the agricultural South, which in turn started and kept the industrial wheels of the North whirling in the process of making things to supply the American populace. Although a byproduct himself during these toilsome years, the slave none the less worked and earned his right to enjoy the benefits offered by the country he was helping to build. This right first appeared in the humane movement for his freedom, and definitely marked the beginning of the American people's desire to pursue a course that led to the true Ideal of Democracy. Are we, the sons and daughters of thos slaves, foolish enough to think of running away frctn their labor? Are we disposed to be a people who have not the insight to see that our forefathers planted us here tc grow and to struggle on toward that democratic Ideal whlca they themaalv gave a svr Bat White Historian 'Begs For Quarter' Reviewing DuBois' "Black Reconstruction" in N.

hia now famous "blacklist" included in the bibliography of the monumental work, has Dear Editor. On Athletics Editor, The Pittsburgh Courier. It la T(ry Interestinx to note that the Negro athletlo achievements are being worked out scientifically by different men of authority on the development of athletics, euoh as "Pop" Warner suid others. My first observation of this very close study of athletio achievements of the Negro waa right after Met oalf and Tolan demonstrated to the world that tha Negro could be developed to the higheat point of ath letlo proSclency. Our good friends of authority retreated to their laboratories aftr this accomplishment and came forth with a new discovery that "startled" the world: Metoalfe, Tolan and others ran to school, thereby developing the leg muscle while the white athlete rod in automobile which cause thir leb muscles to be undevelop ed.

My second observation of thJs very august body of scientists, came after Jeaee Owen had jumped to a new world's record. Again they retreated to their labs and after repeated experiments, finally came forth with another new discovery, for the world: The Nro heel pro trudes far farther than the while, which gives him more spring. Judging from what I read la the papers, our good friends and aol ontlsts ax soon to retreat to their labs to experiment on the arms and fists of the Negro. Here' hoping that their findings will be as startling as the previous ones. One of the very interesting things I have also noted from these many experiments of the Negro is that our good frWnd of authority have been forced to work on the Negro from the bottom up, thanke to Metcalfe, Tolan, Owens, Joe Louis and others.

There Is only the head left for them now. So we are hoping in the near future, some outstanding laboratory material will present Itself. Of oourae we all realise that the subject will have to be so high they can't gt over, so wide they can get around cant et under. brought an apologetla and cringing reply from Henry Raymond Mus sey of Wellasley College, who, re viewing the book as a first page feature In the New Tork Sunday Herald Tribune "Books." begged for quarter for his "Thi is a book of controversy." writes Dr. Mussey "la form and intention a solid history of the reconstruction period, with primary reference to the Negro's part la It," he went on, paying tribute to DuBois' scholarship.

LESTER B.

JOHNSON, Savannah, Ga. According to Taste Editor, The Pittsburgh Courier, PitUburgh. Pa. Dear Sir: During the past weeks I have become keenly Interested in the articles on interracial marrisge and have enjoyed reading the letter and views of other on thla Interesting question. First.

I think marriages ar purely uo to Individual taste. Since the Lees, Washlngtons and others, years ago took care of i that side of the question, it must be and will always be a solution to the rac problem. We should lay aside petty prejudice entirely. Love melts all opposition, conquers stll foes, sweeps away ail barriers, abounds in charity, large hearted nes, tolerance and noble striving. We have given the white race all ing? God forbid! I kiow not how many more Negroes think as Miss Kelley thinks, but, as for me, this ls homo.

I azn duty bound to stay here and protect the sacrifices my slav ancestors have made. So, too Miss Kelly. and all th other Negroes who think th Race should go back to Africa. I repeat: "This is home." It Is as much my home as It is th whit man's. for on, would be among th first to answer th call of arms to protect this Nation.

For I hav not only my forefather and my own labors to jtect, I also hav you and every other woman la th U. S. to look out for, Miss Kelley. as well as every child colored end white especially little white eyed pickaninny who looks so hopeful. Harry Douglas.

Pittsburgh, Pa Dear Sir: In my short xpnenc. I find that a tru christian endeavor, deep thinking, a good flreald training, education, la these only do ws find success, whatvr the undertaking and having atudled this race question from many angles, black a well as white, I feel free to offer contradiction. On of our readers states, in your lssus of Juts 22, that should only want white women, aa men want our behind cloaed door. That ls not th way. for two wrongs do not make a right, and why should we want to disgrace ourselves, to spite other.

White men do not proposition their women for others, as do a certain class of our men. In writing on such a subject, one should be more tactful, and see things as they are. When we learn to put up a better front to protect of this and la turn have asked for nothing. There are very few pure Afro Americans. I have seen children who were supposedly Nordic, but those children's features, color and character in general were worse than any of ojr children's.

On class ot whit girls will accept our men; another class will accept him for a selfish motive. White men. nine times out of ten. will nak behind locked door with a rac woman. If she 1 so foolish.

But we who have real race prid can find so many handsome brown men and women, who ar intelligent and able to fill any place, from a country school to the legislative hall, why should we seek any other race? But. I say. If two people love well enough to travel through life together, regardless of race or ereed. those whom God hath joined together. no man put asunder.

Many are negroid without knowing It (If that word Is to be used) for highly bred men.
