Negro Press
Has Birthday
(Continued from page 1)
1877 had produced.
The twentieth century means
more than the launching of 1,796
Negro newspapers, all but nine
score of which have disappeared.
It means more than the survival
of four papers suckled before
1900: Afro-American (1892),
Philadelphia Tribune (1884),
New York Age (1883) and Sa
vannah (Ga.) Tribune, 1879).
It means the development of
large publishing plants, the use of
trained personnel, skilled hands
in the backshop, cool heads in the
counting profits, expan
sion, commercialisation.
H*
It means expertly edited or
gana forging a mighty wedge a
gainst the seamy side of Ameri
cas life. Plugging for schools,
jobs, bouses, play space, and
for unmarked v-al*, theaters,
pools, streets, and eating tables.
It means a steady stream of
Journalistic fervor and cold fact
emitting from every comer of the
nation (barring eight states),
spotting the flaws and exposing
the abuses.
The twentieth century means
men like T. Thomas Fortune, Ro
bert 8 Abbott, Chester A. Frank
lin, P. R. Young, Calvin Chase,
Lucian Hklnner, Wendell P. Dab
ney. Fred R. Moore, the Murphys,
Roscoe Dunjee, Joseph K Mit
chell. Christopher J. Perry, John
Mitchell, and a host of others.
Chains and Combinations
Thia century haa brought news
paper chains and combinations,
such as those controlled by the
Defender Publications, the Afro-
American Newspapers, Informer
Newspapers. Scott syndicate It
has brought newspapers with var
ious editions spreading afar like
the limbs of the tree the Courier
with its seventeen editions, the
Journal and Guide with four, the
Kansas Ctty Cail with four.
The century has also actual
land the tightly-knit National
(formerly Negro) Newspa|>er
Publishers Association, longest
lived (at 15) of any national
Negro press organisation. Na
tional Negro Newspaper Week
la being unveiled for only the
11th time.
The century haa meant the 23-
year-old Atlanta Dally World, by
no means the first Negro dally
(43 preceded It > but by far the
moat enduring. The century has
meant the largest circulations
upwards of 2,500,000 total dur
ing the ’4o's It means 187 ten-,
fifteen- and twenty-cent Negro
newspapers today. running to
some 1.500,000 copies weekly,
most of them firmly-established
community enterprises
Noul-Nearrhlng
At Its mid-point, the century
haa brought also some soul
searching, an Introspective l<s>k.
Some questioning. Some frowns
Will the Negro newspaper die?
Some Negro publishers say yea
Some say no. Some predict a
long life for the printed spokes
man of a flexible group that has
had to do many flips in adapting
Itself to countless changes In its
living pattern.
In any case, they are digging In
for the tussle that an Integrating
competitive America lias cooked
up for them.
Salad days may be ahead Rut
skirmishes, for sure. In a tlaay of
excitement.

New Klan?
Look Article
Describes Growth
Of Dixie Vigilantes
New York A secret vigilante
group, dedicated to the prevention
of desegregation at all costs, has
risen in the deep South and now
threatens to become a modern
Ku Klux Klan. It was revealed
thia week
This white supremacy group,
called the Citizens Councils, was
founded In July, 1904 to combat
last year's Supreme Court deci
sion against segregation In the
public schools. It la currently
under inveatlgation by the FBI
for possible violations of civil
liberties.
These disclosures of the power
ami activities of the dtlzens
Councils were made by IhlUtzer
Prise-winning editor lloddlng
Carter in an article In the new Is
sue of Look Magazine entitled,
"A Wave of Terror Threatens the
South."
Mr Carter, who la the editor of
the Greenville. Mississippi, Delta
Democrat-Times revealed that
the Councils Movement has
spread unchecked through the
states of Mississippi, Alabama
Georgia. Tennessee, Arkansas
Ijpulslann, South Carolina, and
northern Florida. It has met no
organized opposition, Mr, Carter
anM. and claims 2b.000 members
In Mississippi alone
In addition to Its antl-Negro
bins, the Councils are spreading
anti-Semitic and anti-Cathollc
propaganda as well Mr Carter
charged In his laaik article
The group was founded In Mis
sissippi in July and has its per
manent headquarters in Winona
in that state, Mr Carter revealed
While no direct physical vio
lence has resulted from the Coun
cil's activities to date, the group
has won each fight it has entered
in the last six months, Mr Carter
said It operates by exerting ec
onomic and social pleasures on re
calcitrant Negroes and whites
The greatest danger posed by
the Councils. Mr Carter found
was the possibility that “the ex-
tremist fringe,” the ''viciously un
controllable.'' and the "hoodlum
element" would take control of
the organization and lead It to
“widespread, organised and ra
cially motivated terrorism '*

This is "Teacher Appreciation"
week and our school han been
busy doing nice little things for
each one's favorite teacher. You
Mas should send your child's
teacher a hanky or something
Teachers need to be cheered up
every once in awhile.
To give you an example of how
much teachers mean to us, Karen
Lou Vaughn and Shirley Tolbert
are proof, both girls excelled in
music (piano) at a recent music
survey at Edison School with
over 500 contestants. Shirley is
the ten year old daughter of the
A Tolberts, 115 N. Dakota Av.
Karen is the nine year old daugh
ter of the George Vaughns. 1900
8. Euclid. These girls had splendid
teachers and of course their abil
ity to learn is superior.
Mrs. E. Harris. 115 N. Dak
was pleasantly surprised last
week when a party of local house
wives surprised her, with a be
lated birthday party. Mrs. Harris
received many lovely gifts. Those
who took part in the party were
Mrs. C. Coakley. Mrs. T. Vaughn,
Mrs. C. Smith and Mrs. A. Wif

oldies.
Our Daniel Coates and Bob
WtMtnms are working in Yank
ton at the state mental institu
tion. They plan to do some hunt
ing with the Blakeys and visit
with the Bacons so I guess we can
term this trip partly pleasure.
Bob Haynes has been having a
rough time with an infection on
his face Bob Is working, but h»>

shape to accept his golf dance In

FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST
702 Lyndale Ave. No.
"I Will Arise And Go To My
Father." St. Luke 15:18, was the
text used by our assistant minis
ter, The Rev. Dr. Wilson, on Sun
day, March 6. He used for his
subject, "Why Don't You Come
Back Home.” We enjoyed the
message very much. He brought
out many fine points on why
backsliders should come back to
the church of the living God.
In the afternoon. Rev. J. C.
Wiggins, pastor of St. Paul's
Church of God in Christ and his
congregation were with us. His
assistant minister. Rev. Harvey
Carpenter, brought the message.
"A Sick Man That Shall Die. the
Lord Said. Set Thine House In
Order,” was his subject taken
first verse. He really delivered an
from the 38th chapter of Isiah,
inspiring sermon which we en
joyed very much. He brought out
that many of us in the world are
sick and will soon die, so we had
better set our house in order. It
was a wonderful message.
The Royal Jubileers and the
Glittering Stars were with us also.
After the wonderful singing by
the groups, our pastor. Rev. L.
C. Harris administered the Lord’s
Supper by candle light. It was
beautiful, no singing, all silent.
On Sunday. February 27, Rev.
Harris brought one of the finest
messages that we have heard His
subject was, "Jesus Is A Junk
Man.” That message brought
12 to the fold. They were: Rev.
Henry Wilson. St Paul Church of
God In Christ. Our pastor ap
pointed him as our assistant min
ister; Mr. Grant Wallace. Mr.
Raymond Wallace, Mr. Howard

ZION BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. H. W. Botts' sermon was
based on James 1:26-38. His sub
iect was "Unruly Members.”
Thoughts to ponder were. "But
the tongue can no man tame; it
is an unruly evil, full of deadly
poison. Words spoken can never
be recalled: they leave scars that
can never be healed, because we
fail to bridle our tongue. If any
man among you seem to be re
ligious and bridleth not his tongue
but deceiveth his own heart, this
man's religion is vain." The or
dinance of holv communion was
administered following the ser
vice.
Music was rendered by the
combined choirs of Zion directed
by Mr. Ralph Primm.
