CHAIRMAN HARRIS: The next speaker will be Mr. F. Eugene Corbie of the College of the City of New York.<br /><br />MR. CORBIE: Mr. Chairman and Fellow Students: The last speaker has practically taken away from me all that I intended to say. Nevertheless, I shall try to be a little more fundamental and attempt to go into the psychology of the things that make for discrimination, so that you may have something to work upon. If psychology is anything, discrimination is bad, because it makes for differences which must manifest themselves sooner or later. <br /><br />Moreover, the thing that you call culture is not something that can be picked up on the streets. All that makes for your civilization is something that you have got by contact. If you as a superior race, so called, having all the things that make for your culture, attempt to adjudge me because of my poor standards, and at the same time you keep me in an environment that makes for crime and debasement, I say you are not logically clear when you talk of my inferiority. <br /><br />So when we ask you to stop discrimination and give us the right to come to the fountain of life, yea into your very colleges where you get your best, so that we may assimilate of your best, we are asking only that we, too, be given the right to develop ourselves as manfully and as womanly as you, in order that in time we, too, may make a contribution to your glorious civilization. <br /><br />When we talk about equality we are not asking the right to marry a white woman, because we feel that no social legislature can dictate to one human being how this man or that woman shall determine her life, or who shall be his or her wife or husband. We feel that that is an individual contract which society itself regulates. Moreover, the psychology of setting up standards is bad. Sometimes I wonder where is that spirit of moral virtue which should permeate your soul. When I look back and see my race transformed from its blackness until today it is so hypothetically white, when I see there is very little inter-marriage among the races, and then when I hear the clamor for purity of race, I wonder where the white women are and what they are thinking of that double standard of morality which is set up by white men.<br /><br />On that count let me say that if you have due respect for your women, believe it, too, that we are human, and we love to respect our women. Respect yourself, sir, and I ask you out of common decency of mind, don't make my household a house of debauchery. If you are going to say your white women must be pure, we want ours to be pure.<br /><br />Now when we ask that, what is the contribution which the black man has made that entitled him to a fair share of the rights of citizens? You have the gift of genius and you see your inventions manifesting themselves. Have you ever thought of the cotton seed as the gift of Africa? Did you think of that genius that today has been the nucleus of your very big economic life? Have you thought of the sacrifices in human flesh and labor that have enriched you so?<br /><br />And after all, is it not right that you give us the chance to be men and women? Think if you will of the fact that although you lashed us with the whip as we toiled for you, transplanted and transformed, we accepted your God, and when we hadn't your reason to appeal to, we appealed to the Christ that you gave us. And then we sang the song of love. That is our contribution. We ask you to give us not the chance to be beggars, but the right to live. Give us the chance to be men and women, so that carrying on in the spirit of love eternal, we may be able to live here as one common people, associated, friendly, but by no means familiar; that your contribution and my contribution shall stand out for emulation in time, so that when life with us shall be no more, the black race we represent will leave something for the coming black race, and race pride as such, without race hatred, will be a manifest thing for the good of the universe.

<h2>Student Economic Conference</h2>
<h3>Addresses and Discussions Centre on Unemployment Problems.</h3>
<h3>TO EMANCIPATE WORKER</h3>
(Specially contributed by H. Seligman, President of the Bryn Mawr Liberal Club.)<br />A much larger turnout appeared for the Economic Conference in Goodhart on March 22, than had been expected. Swarthmore as usual sent the largest number of delegates, and kept the discussion going. About a hundred people were served at lunch and tea, including a plentiful sprinkling of Bryn Mawr faculty.<br />Dr. Jesse Holmes, Professor of Philosophy at Swarthmore, was the first speaker of the morning, after a few words of welcome by the Chairman, H. Seligman, ’30. He believes that the best way to solve our present difficulties is by the political action of a new party, a third party. The Republican party, he said, is confessedly the party of business interests; we need to get rid of the property idea as the aim of government. The work of this generation is to eliminate the acquisitive motive and to get back to the earlier ideals of liberty. After a few minutes’ recess, Mr.
<h4>CONTINUED ON PAGE 3</h4>
<h3>Economic Conference</h3>
<h4>Continued from Page One</h4>
Reed Cary, Vice-President of Leeds, Northrup and Company, took the floor, and discussed the relationship between the corporation and the individual. The worst problem in unemployment, he said, lies in adjusting those men who have no ability, or who are in the wrong positions. The problem of consolidation is one that has not yet been satisfactorily worked out, for the less efficient loses out always. The new philosophy of industry is both moral and economic—to pay the highest possible wages. Unemployment, said Mr. Cary, is uneconomical as well as unjust. Many of the unemployed are men of trained brains; unemployment is hitting all classes, and may affect us. This is an evil analogous to the slavery evil. <br />The discussion, led by Anne Burnett, Bryn Mawr, ’32, centered around the effort of Leeds, Northrup and Company to meet the problems of unemployment and insurance. <br />At one o’clock the conference adjourned for lunch in the May Day Room, to convene again at two. Mr. Tom Tippett of the Brookwood Labor College gave a very impassioned speech from the point of view of labor. The engineers are tools of the capitalists, and so salvation will not come from them. There must be a power strong enough to make people see what is happening and do something about it. This power exists in the labor group. No business man wants government to come into business except to put up tariffs, so we must change our government. Independent political action may do it—if not, then-revolution. <br />The Labor movement is much more idealistic, more Christian than any other group. Sacrifice in the American Labor Movement is as great as it is to be found anywhere. Labor Unions have many faults, but they are not all stupid and crooked. Illegal and brutal opposition is the cause of some of this. <br />“This conference is an indictment of our colleges, because we should be talking of these things in our classes, and not need to call a conference.” The college group is too intelligent; the idealism necessary to right the situation appeals to labor. Public schools do not teach this idealism. The need and the labor movement alone will educate people.<br />The discussion was led by Howard Westwood, of Swarthmore, and it continued long after Mr. Tippett's departure. Dr. Wilcox, of the University of Pennsylvania, Mr. Biemiller, and Mr. Krueger took active parts in this discussion. <br />After the announcement of the conference to be held at Johns Hopkins over the 29th of March, and after a brief summary of the day by V. Butterworth, Bryn Mawr, ’32, and the conference adjourned to tea, and finally ended at 5.30.

<h2>Economic Status of Negroes</h2>
<em>The College News</em>, we will have you know, is a venerable and respectable paper. It is far from our aim to lead our readers into ruddy, r dic l <em>[sic]</em> ways. We are sensible that we could not if we would. We desire only to awake in the Bryn Mawr breast the old intellectual curiosity. We urge that an opportunity to investigate one of the most important political, economic and sociological problems of the day be not passed over. In short, we urge you to attend the Liberal Club conference on the economic status of negroes. To this conference, in Goodhart on Saturday, liberal thinkers are coming from all over the East. We who are here at Bryn Mawr should not because our opportunities are greater appreciate them less. This year some of the best musicians, dancers and speakers have been brought to Bryn Mawr only to be unhonored and unsung except by the few. Has the college become poor in taste, we wonder—or only in purse?<br />N. B.—The conference is free!
