Coverage

"Chief among Newcomb's conclusions was the need for full employment among both races, even to the extent of Federal Aid in stimulating new sources of labor activity."

"If the American people 'advocate fair play and democracy' in the remainder of the world, they must cease this hypocrisy and first rectify their own injustices."
