The government is a fine thinr to work for. It pays off regularly: and well, and its checks never bounce. But it demands in return that the primary loyalty of all its workers be to UNCLE SAX. What we aeed now ta Waah tagtaa is someone whose primary loyalty is to America's THIRTEEN MILLION NEGROES.

But the south fernexs are not alone responsible for the fact that Negroes are being brutally pushed 3flr. around. The north, east and west are also to blame, because they wink, connive at and acquiesce in this practice of discriminating against Negroes. Bat TCrardJesa of who is re sponsible for tbe raw deal Negroes are getting, the big bald fact la taey are getting it Responsible committees of Negroes who seek to intercede in behalf of the Negro being accorded the simple right to work in industries and on jobs serring National Defense and to serve in the Army. Navy, and Air Corps are being given polite assurances that Negroes win be given a fair deal But it all ends there.

Nothing is actually done to stop discriminations. ALWAYS LOOPHOLES THROUGH SUBORDINATES It seems to be apparent that even when well meaning, responsible, top government omcial agree upon a fair and favorable policy, there are loopholes, and subordinate officers in the Army, Navy, and Air Corps, full of race hatred, who seek its contravention, mraniflcarkm, and evasion.

No real, srfnal. bonaSde. definite and nasi tire pressure of tha Negro mas tea has ever been brought to btar upon the executive and legislative branches of the city, stats, and national gorernmenis.

Now, as to a practical progrsm: I suggest that 16.909 Negroes march on Washington, D. CL, the capital of the station, with the togaat WE LOYAL NEGRO AMERICAN CITIZENS DEMAND TMg RIGHT TO WORK AND FIGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY. Negroes could joia this march from various sections ef the country from an trades, profesaioaa aad eaJBngs, such aa laborers, doctors, nurses, lawyers, teachers, preachers, nechaalea, dlerB, women, aad youth group. Our demand would be simple. in National Def meat aa soldiers aad officers ef aS ranks we are qualified far, ta the armed forcea.

No propaganda could be whip pad up aad sstsd to the effnet that Negroea seek to hamper defense. No charge could be made that Negroea are attempting to mar national unity. They wans to do aone ef these things. Oa toe contrary, we aeek the right to play our part ta advancing the cause ef national and antional unity. But certainly, there eaa be ao tree aationa! aaity where one tenth of the population are deeded their baste rights aa American Committees of the could be pHTnfd to confer with ofBciala about the aad rights ef th Negro.
