THE UNITED STATES
The Radio Industry in the United
Slates cane in for terrific blasts
Brom leaders among American
9)slgroes. speaking at a conference
'sponsored by the Committee for
the Negro in Arts held recently in
New York City.
Canada Lee, well known Negro
actor, charged that the "lynch men-
tality" of American radio made
"cannibals, dehumanized monsters,
clowns, menials, thieves and liars"
out at the Negro people whom it
had "jailed in a concentration camp
of silence where we are surrounded
• by indifference and our real words
reach nowhere."
Mr. Lee, who has repeatedly
denied that he is a communist,
joined with Paul Robeson, the sing-
er, and several others in violent at.
racks on American radio owners for
alleged efforts to distort and con-
ceal Negro problems and what he
termed their refusal to hire qualified
Negro workers. He declared that an
insidious pattern of discrimination
and hatred toward members of his
trace was apparent throughout the
country. He charged that failure to
enact civil sights legislation, re -
mewed terrorism by the Ku Klux
Klan and other acts of violence
Howard Negroes were all part of a
movement to maintain e,an "iron
curtain" between Negroes and white
persons in the United States.
Paul Robeson, famous baritone,
)recently returned from a trip
through Europe, told the 300 as -
ambled Negro workers in, radio,
television and the theatre that they
were deprived of their rights,
whereas inhabitants of the Soviet
Union and the "peoples' democ-
racies" in Eastern Europe are "in
mea danger of losing any of their
mil rights."
Speaker after speaker assailed
alAdio's alleged suppression of artis-
tk talent among Negroes, what was
sidled "Jim Crowism" in most of
the large unions in the industry,
Also "censorship" that prohibits
Radio script writers from' dealing
honestly with minority grievances.
In fact it would almost seem as
though the Negro characters we
hear over the radio, or see via tele-
vision, might not be quite so care-
free and happy shout it all as they
sound or look.
GREAT BRITAIN ,
As most people know, Britain's
reserve of gold and dollars has run
dangerously low. So low, that Sir
itlafford Cripps has announced --as
4 stop -gap measure—that Britain
will cut off practically all spending
itt dollars until September at least.
This measure is a drastic ex-
pedient. It will mean still more
austerity for the British people,
and it will also deal a blow to
American exporters right at a time
of uncertainty regarding the United
States economic outlook.
The immediate cause of Britain's
new dollar difficulties is that the
United States, like other world
markets, has for the moment
changed front a "seller's market" to
a 'buyer', eierket." Because of low-
er 4eumed the buyer has an ad-
vantage r ter the seller, under such
tsonelitioue i ritRit) finds it difficult
to eompef,
'This is b.•cailse, on the average, t
the *)ritish worker is far less pro-
NormanBlait
ductive than the American worker
—largely through huge American in-
vestment in mass production equip-
ment, and the relative lack of such
equipment in Britain. As a result,
British costs of production are
higher, and British goads at a com-
petitive disadvantage.
Most economists think—like Sir
Stafford Cripps—that lower pro-
duction costs would be Britain's
best solution to the problem. But
to achieve Phis speedily would re-
quire drastic wage cuts—a step
which the Labor, Government would
be unlikely to take and which prob-
ably would be resisted by wide-
spread strikes. In fact the Labor
Government seems determined to
take no steps that would to any
extent reduce the standard of living
of British workers, upon whose
votes its future depends.
So it becomes increasingly clear
that Britain's problems cannot be
easily or quickly solved; and that,
no matter what course is taken, the
cooperation and counsel of the
United States will be required.
But there is a feeling, both in
Washington and in London, that
with patience and perseverance on
both sides, the problem will some•
how or other be worked out.
JAPAN
The violent attack of the Jap-
anese Communist Party on the
aims of the Allied occupation
seems to have become the principal
problem of General Douglas Mac -
Arthur's headquarters. This was
emphasized by the supreme com-
mander's recent statement in which
he denounced communism as "na-
tional and international outlawry"
and hinted that Communists might
be deprived of protection of the law.
The problem has been pointed up
by a whole series of incidents in
which Communists were either di-
rectly concerned or strongly sus-
pected. The most recent was the
death of the Japanese transporta-
tion minister whose multilated body
was found on the railroad tracks
in the outskirts of Tokyo. It is
believed that he was "taken for a
ride" and murdered in old-time
Japanese assassination style because
he was an agent of the govern-
ment's and occupation's policy in
dismissing surplus railway workers,
His death, coupled with a series
of actions --such as the storming
of the Taira town police station and
sabotage along rail lines—has given
rise to the belief that the Com-
munists have chosen this time for a
violent showdown with the opposi-
tion, The Japanese Communist
party is a tightly knit organization
whose membership le secret, but is
now estimated to have reached 200,-
000. In addition, there are about
three million Communists sympa-
thizers in Japan, as the last election
showed, so that the threat of 'com-
ing trouble is by no means an idle
one.
'.Teacher --"Johnnie, I'm sthlianled
of you. When I was no bigger than
yott, I eould reel off all the Kings
of England in order without hesita-
tion."
Johnnie—"Yeah; but there was
only three or four of them 'then."
StORT
Success in modern hockey de-
pends, of course, very largely on
the efficiency of your scouting sys-
tem and owning or controlling
enough "farm" clubs where the bud-
ding talerit your scouts bring in can
be developed to "big time" effi-
ciency. But give him a fair share
of material to work with, and we
think that John George Boucher
—better known as `Buck" --will put
plenty of new life into the Boston
Bruins.
* * ,p
Buck Boucher may not have been
the greatest hockey defenseinan
who ever performed; but he be-
longed right up there among the
top hands, as anybody who saw him
in action at his best—or, even bet-
ter, anybody who ever played
against hint—will be glad to testify.
* * *
Boucher played for years in a
league -which boasted—to mention
just a few—stalwards such as Odie
and Peg Cleghorn, Eddie Shore,
Red Dutton, Cully Wilson, Billy
Coutu and Lionel Hitchman, And
when any of that gang bit you,—
well you stayed hit.
* *
Yet ]3uck Boucher, although
never classed as dirty player, held
his own in the very roughest going;
and there were very few in the
league who would, from choice,
head for his side of the defense
when boring in on goal.
* *
Boucher played on four Ottawa
teams which won the Stanley Cup,
the last time being in 1927 when
the Senators beat out the Boston
Bruins, Later he was traded to the
Montreal Maroons for Joe Lamb,
and also had a season playing de-
fense for the Chicago Black Hawks.
But it is in an Ottawa uniform he
will best be remembered by those
who recall the days when the Sena-
tors—and Buck Boucher—were just
about tops.
Just how low the heavyweight
boxing racket bas fallen is seen in
the fact that Ezzard Charles, recog-
nized—in certain spots—as the new
world champion is slated to defend
his "title" next month against a
character by name Gus Lesnevich,
* * *
if you follow boxing closely,
which is another way of saying "if
you are a glutton for punishment,"
you will perhaps recall that Gusta-
vus, not so long ago, was a cham-
pion too—but in the light -heavy-
* * *
weight class.
But hanging on to that title was
foo much for Lesnevich. He lost the
United States end of it to one Joey
Maxim, who practically nobody,
outside of his immediate family,
ever heard of as a fighter. Later he
travelled to London and Freddy
Mills, of all people, beat hien for his
European Crown.
* * *
Now you would think that the
promoters, if they can't find any
real heavyweights, would select as
an opponent for Charles nobody but
Joey Maxim. But no—Lesnevich
gets the call; and the reason given
is that Maxim's style is too much
like that of Charles; which is to say
that both of them brawl as though
there were small children in the
house who must, on no account, be
awakened.
*
In the words of one insider, "al
Charles -\Maxim bout would be too.
much of a stinkeroo for even New
York to hold still for." Here we
alight say something snappy about
how we can imagine nothing that
would be a greater stinkeroo than
the bout at Yankee Stadium next
month promises to be—but, heck,
it's too blessed hot, so we'll leave
you to roll your own.
