NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION HE FEWER RESOLUTIONS made the (ewer broken so we're only making one for the New Year: To give the public more and better news and to' continue the fight for equal opportunity and justice for all peoples regardless of race, color or creed. To this end we re dedicate ourselves and teek the cooperation of our subscribers and organizations working toward the same goal. Instead of preaching democracy i we shall try to practice the Golden Rule.

At the same time we shall continue to consider it our, duty to fight hypocrisy, crime and ignorance and to oppose the forces that represent these evils. We extend to our readers our sincere wishes for a "happy and prosperous New Year. It is our hope that peace will return to the world in 1941 and that nations may speedily resume peaceful methods to settle their differences instead of resorting to war and stirring up the baser passions of mankind. Happy New Year to all! DEADLOCK IN PRODUCTION ALMOST TWO MONTHS have passed since the national election, and jet this country finds itself very little further advanced in the production of aeroplanes and other war materials, as well as housing for the million soldiers being drafted than it was in the early Fall. Conditions have become so bad that Chairman William S.

Knudsen of the National Defense Advisory Board re ccntly inadu. a speech in New York in which lie warned the country that if the bottle neck in production continued we would not only be too late to help the British but would remain at the mercy of any aggressor nation that might try invasion of this country. Mr. Knudsen blamed both capital and labor for conditions but was more critical of the latter group for their insistence on maintaining the 40 hour week, the right to strike and other prerogatives in the face of the emergency. He said that instead oi a five day week essential industries should he placed on a seven day basis and strikes should be outlawed during the emergency.

Another evil complained of was the "rack etcering" by labor organizations. Widespread publicity was recently given a letter by a non union electrician who was unable to go to work on a housing project because he could not pay the $iOU joining fee the union demanded of him and in many cases Negro carpenters have been unaClc to get jobs because unions demanded that they pay $75 before they are permitted to go to work on government cantonments to house the soldiers being drafted. A similar situation prevails in the shipbuilding industry, where in many sections Negroes are discriminated against because they are non union workers and at the same time the "unions are making joining fees prohibitive. The (solution to this problem, it seems to us, is for the President to declare a wartime emergency and place all industry on a wartime basis. By doing so, both labor and industry would be subject to draft on the basis of need, and jobs would be opened up tt all workers regardless of their union affiH ation, or lack of' it.

Such a policy Would be of inestimable benefit to the Negro, for he is the biggest sufferer from the present discrimination in industry both. from, the employer on the one band and the part of organized labor on the other. In this connection, it might be pointed out that similar suggestions hare been made by many prominent persons. Governor Lehman of New York recently wrote Chairman Knudsen suggesting that many factories making non essential commercial articles could be converted to the manufacture of defense materials. The "urgency" of the defense, situation was tot fully appreciated by some manufacture the letter stated, and it might be added that neither capital nor labor has shown I willingness, to make any sacrifices to aid be defease prcrsau FIGHT ON INFANTILE PARALYSIS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY appeals are out to aid the fight on infantile paralysis by supporting the celebration of the President's birthday with balls.

These appeals are being sent to al) citizens without regard to race or color. When this campaign was first inaugurated, New. York Age called attention to the fact, that Negroes were denied admission to the War Springs, Ga. Hospital tp which the money from these balls was largely given. Because of the state law which keeps the races separate in Georgia, it was pointed out that nothing could be done to correct this situation at Warm Springs but.a part of the funds were set aside some three years ago for the erection of a national paralysis hospital for Negroes at Tuskegee Institute.

Very little has been heard about the progress of the program at Tuskegee since that time. part of the funds raised annually are now used in established regional and local hospitals for this purpose, since many patients haven't the financial resources to travel south for treatment. Local hospitals for the treatment of infantile paralysis can prevent discrimination because of race in some of the Northern cities and states. In our opinion Chairman Keith Morgan and his national committee conducting the fight this year could get greater support'from the Negro population of the country if announcement was made of the disposition of the funds to be 'raised, and especially as it relates to how Negroes share in it. EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION YJHITE'PEOPLE like to remind Negroes that; they were only recently slaves, and considering'this fact they are doing very wen for themselves when they manage to eke out an existence unaided by some white overlord.

A correspondent to The New York Times from Atlanta, recently sent 'in a Christmas story of the meeting of the Ex slave Association of Atlanta and of their prayers for peace. The members of this organization are said to range in age from 90 to 107 years but despite their ages they are said to have done a lot of singing and praying for world peace. It was a good story but to this observer, it just didn't ring true, for such people know very little of world conditions and because of their age are certainly unable to do much singing. We cite this story to show how subtly the white South keeps alive the idea that Ne groes are barely removed from slavery and before that were uncivilized and unaccustomed to the ways of modern civilization. They still hold to the idea that Negroes are of a lower order than the whites and should not be treated the same.

Many Negroes, too, aid this fiction by holding annual celebrations honoring the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation which freed them. These celebrations usually re call the previous conditions of the Negro and the principal speaker indulges in flights of oratory to point out the progress we have made in so short a space of time and to tell of the bright outlook for the future. Instead of being inspired, many young people leave such meetings with a feeling of confusion. They have been told that they have poor heritage, and should not expect much. Most white races have been slaves at some time in'thcir The Jews were once enslaved by the (members of the colored race) but one seldom hears a Jew mention this fact.

The present British Isles were once conquered by the Romans and their people etiolated but English historians have very little to say on this subject Even in this country, many of the first white settlers same here in bondage and had to work for a number of years before they were free lo buy land, vote or exercise the other prerog atives of citizenship. In Georgia especially where General Oglethorpe brought over a colony of settlers made up largely of people who had been imprisoned for debts and minor offenses was this true, but one seldom hears such things talked of by the descendants of these people. In other words, the whites try to hold up to their youth the bright and shining achievements of their race and. try to forget the darkest episodes in their history. Thus We find white boys inspired to dare any undertaking while Negro boys early learn that they haven't milch chance in life and soon lose all ambition to strive for any unusual career.

Because this fact, we think the time has come for the Negro to stop reminding Jiim self that he was until recently a slave. Instead we should teach our youth that we are now, citizens and that if we act like citizens end strive to achieve like all other racial groups in this country, well get somewhere. Be it said to the credit of our grandparents recently, relieved from bondage, they did not indulge in. recalling the old days. Rather they rejoiced in their new found freedom and taught the first generation removed from slavery to believe that through the medium of an education, bird work and ambition, they could go places ead be sornebody.

Let's turn our faces toward the future, rather than turning back each year to. recall the darkest period ci our racial history.

In. human life, men art often faced with certain inescapable facts and conditions to which they are compelled, to adjust, themselves.

External nature prescribes certain laws' and conditions by. which they must exist, and men, willingly or unwillingly adjust themselves to them, because there is no other course to pursue. In the social life of mankind men have always grouped themselves, or have been Igrouped, fajto what is termed races. These groups or rarities of the human net. are sometimes known by tames of their own selection, and igaifl by names bestowed upon them by other races.

The ancient Greeks art a cast in point If. these atroupings of human beings into races is, as Bussell says, result of a "superstition" derived from, the cave man, and is "preposterously because "there are ho races," then human ily as we know it in the supposed superior light of the TwenUeth Century is. decidedly superstitious, for the most enlightened and prog I fairs groups of humanity in our timet art distinctively ract con TThe (rouping of to "races is nude possible' by the existence within each group of eer physical, mental asu IM) OF il KOBLE 11 Tht other evening I listened to a distinguished piece pT nonsense that went, under the "name of criticism. The occisfon was a discussion of Tolstoi's Peace" by the eminent Mark Van Doren, Allen Tate, and Huntington Catrns program. Invitation' to lArnihg." Several years ago read "War and Peace" mainly to get Tolstoi's analysis of Napoleon's Russian campaign I was tremendously impressed with the novel though not sufficiently so to prevent my skipping severs long passages.

The broadcast, I hoped would indicate how much I had misted and would stimulate me to reread the book. Alas, 'rwat not to be! The distinguished started out by saying that. and Peace? was "a great novel" "had all the things. which make a novel great but in greater degree than any otter," What these factors were was not discussed and the listener could only infer, The critics continued: Tolstoi "has no theory about elass not interested in middle class want ed a classless society but. portrayed all groups." "The Czar Alexander was portrayed as human munching crack era" "hundreds of characters are portrayed.

"Are there any defector "Ideas' are "The novel "does not seem to flow from Tolstoi's experience but from other sources as for example his discussion of freemasonry." And so Although the conversation was not as disjointed as presented here' ideas were; there was.no skeleton whose outline was fairly discernible to the listener to which these, comments were attached. In all justice to the critics the accepted pattern of literary criticism is that in any analysis of a story the story itself is not told but only hinted at The criticism must concern itself with descrip tion, character analysis, quality of writing and high or low spots. Part of this pattern is dictated by the belief that people won't want to find about something they already know and therefore book sales will be limited. Whether the profit motive underestimates human curiosity or not i tis my belief that the reader or listener must be given some general ideas about, a book so that the specific details of criticism will have some meaning for him. My discussion then of Claude McKay's most recent book will not follow the subUe pattern of the critics, but mat of a Negro who has read and has been immensely stimulated by a book which reveals the community in which I have lived or the last twenty years in many of its colorful yet significant aspects.

"Harlem Negro Metropolis" is not a novel, though it has material enough for many novels. It is a survey of a Negro community the largest one in any similar area anywhere in the world within a white civilization. "And as New York is the most glorious experiment on earth of different races and divert group of humanity struggling and scrambling to live together, so Harlem' is the most interesting sample of black humanity marching along with white humanity." This survey includes eleven chapters covering work; business, amusements, poliUca and religion as well as the more spectacular activities of occultists and. number runners. It is written in Mr.

McKay's beautiful poetic' prose made vibrant with pungent expression as gut gin," sing dance," "numbo jumbo divinity of Father Divine," "Sugar Hill is vinegar to many of the residents." The pictures in the book are those of real Negroes whose dignity, no matter what their station, is conveyed all who look The photography it real art and not only amply illustrates the text but gives tangible evidence that Negro photographers, xan do as fine a job in their field as those of other races. However, it is in discussing tht mass activities ot Negroes what Mr. McKay sajrs is important Mr. McKay is an because ot the quality of bis mind and his art; but be is one oi tht masses by choice, because of the universality of his experience and his feelings. He disdains to use his superior gifts to sethin a Dart from' the Nerro masses and tor that reason rites of theml and ueir doings mors understand ingly and sympathetically most of our writers.

His chapters on Father 'Divine Marcus Carrey, Sufi Ham id and organized labor should be read by every one who wants to understand the well springs of mass movements among Negroes. All these movements touched Ntgroer in many other areas besides, Harlem. A complete understanding of Negro mass movements, however, must entail a study of the to' gro church the most successful and extensive of Negrd mast morements as wen as 'Negro fraternal orders. The omission bf these two is a serlour flssarLtot Mr. McKay's' boot Mr.

It is just here that Mr. McKay's second reason for sympathetic portrayal of these leaders, name ly a solution of our problems alon grace lines, is debatable. Mr, McKay accepts' that solution as the only one to bring the Negro respect and independence. If our numbers were at all comparable to those ot the whites this might be so; but since we are only a tenth part of the population we must work with others besides ourselves. We can, however, use our.owa economic resources and our poliU ical power far more effectively than we do and Mr.

"This might be a break for us." Buster told ye paragrapher. "Wt are 'beat' for a good "headline' too." Sticking our press cards in our i hat bands we hurried the four and a. half blocks, to pass police lines and skip over yards of fire hose as they poured water on the blazing inferno of two tenement houses.

If they were any dramatic scenes we wouldn't miss them, we bargained. But aside from the spectacular blaze it was just another fire. If our memory serves us correctly, and we can't bother to look up the flics, some heroic person had acquainted the tenants of the Are and they had left the buildings safely But The Age was waiting to go to press. And we needeii hearilin Mt I if any. persons were mirsin.

He told us a couple of tenants were unaccounted for. That was all we needed. In a lront page streamer wc headlined "Fire Destroys Building On 139th Street; Two Persons Missing." As. a matter of fact, all the tenants were missing from those buildings that night Their homes were being razed by fire. 1 WHAT 18 KNOWN as the.

It was 9 p. m. that we left The Age office lor home. On Seventh avenue we noticed that almost every store window was rMJ1 y. thrown missile.

We hurried home. hurried down, a and beat it for 125th street. Taking up a stand oo the northeast corner at Seventh avenue, in the shadow of two police radio cars, we observed fast swelling and Surging tides of dark humanity crashing against large plate glass winoows as mounted and equestxian poMce attempted to break up the crowds. From that pomt we saw police emergency wagons roU up and down, but not a police officer in" them could be seen. They were just covered wagons; brick the hands of a mischief bent person is a dangerous weapon even to the head ot a cop.

From that point we heard missiles crash, ing into store windows within ear shot of police officers who never bothered to look around.
