This is a Washington Negro talking: It has always been conceded that the North is more intelligent. although less dogmatically astute. than the South in Its handling of both the racial and economic problems. Many subscribe to the belief that the Unions winning of the Civil War was an empty victory in the fact that it only latched on to a great nation a part it would have been better off without. If the lines that divided the Union and the rebels had been left to stand and the Dixleites left to stew in their own juices. and admitted to the better half of the Nation through immigration channels only. the real America would be better off. This is what the mongrels. the halfbreeds. the Negroids. the octoroons. the quadroons. the mulattoes. who are behind this bill and who are demanding that the bill be passed. are saying about the South. I read on: This goes for crackers of both the colored and white variety.
