Our Sacred Cows Recently Jenkin Lloyd Jones, editor of the Tulsa, Okla., Tribune, addressed the editors of Indiana assembled for the 30th annual Hoosier State Press Association convention on “Our Sacred Cows.” A “sacred cow” is a belief that people accept on faith — and one which will not stand up under critical examination. In the past we have had a lot of “Sacred Cows.” This kind of belief leads otherwise perfectly rational people to perfectly irrational actions. L The Civil War was started by our beliefs in “Sacred Cows,” Jones stated. Northern newspaper perpetrated the idea that the Sonth was peopled by Simon Legrees who presided over a whipped and beaten multitude of Uncle Toms, Topsies and Elizas. The South replied in kind — their womanhood was purer, their men shining knights, the Northerners were moneychangers, and any good Southerner could Hke a dozen Yankees. This kind of ridiculous buildup by both sides led to such emotionalism that all reason was lost. We are approaching the same sort of thing today. We can avoid a future “day of reckoning” by taking stock right now of our sacred cows. We can’t afford the luxury of blind faith in error. One Northern sacred cow is the panacea of integration. Integration will solve nothing in itself. It will aHew the colored man, or any underdog, the CHANCE of education that is presently the birthright of every white American, regardless of how stupid, dull or shiftless he is. It will allow an industrious Negro to get an education. But it will not change the inbred and in-learned traits of generations of slavery and servitude. Only time and understanding can do this — and understanding will be necessary on both sides. Jones, in his speech, felt that the Northern liberal press errs when it fails to keep crime statistics by color. We hold, however, that erime statistics should be kept by school grade completed, and by type of school. This is somewhat revolutionary. But it is our theory that certain types of crimes are most prevalent among the uneducated; other types, among the educated. If crime statistics were separated by schooling, it might be possible to find out what type of anticrime education would be most effective. It might also be possible to show the very urgent need of slowly building up our school requirements — our real school requirements, not just our paper goals — so that we could eliminate the breeding grounds of crime — the slum areas, both urban and rural, the social slums that permit the psychiatric crimes.
