THE EDWARDS BILL WOUu.
BAR ALL BUT DEMOCRA
Measure Proposed by Georgia c.
sressman to LseaIize Segregation

acknowledgements Edwards
of Georgia, author Of bill which has
for its purpose the complete separation
of white and colored employees in the
government service, also wants to
abolish the present modus operandi of
the civil service. He is said to have
asserted on the floor of the house,
while speaking in defense of his bill
Feb. "a. that 1t was his desire to reor-
Sanize the civil service so that only
white Democrats would be eligible to
hold positions under the new system.
There are many Of us in the house
who would like to see the civil service
abolished" said Mr. Edwards. Then
we could not only get rid of the Ne
groes in the service. but we could put
Democrats in. 1t seems. however.
that the friends of the civil service
are in the majority, and we are unable
to get it abolished.
MY idea would be to abolish the
present rotten system, and then re-
write another civil service statute aft
er we had got Democrats and white
people. In this way the Democrats
"Oulu De covered QDGer the new law
and would hold on under it. 1t is
politics. but our whole government
system IS one of politics and parties.
I'VE can't keep the parties strong
unless we give the positions to those
who help win victories. II putting
the Republicans and Negroes out OF
jobs is the attitude of a spokesman.
then ! am q spokesman to that extent.
for | certainly have strong convic-
tons along that line"
The Edwards bill provides that the
executive heads of the several depart
ments shall issue orders segregating
the white and Negro employees in ev-
cry branch of the government service
and that hereafter white clerks shall
not be required to occupy the same of
fees or workrooms with employees or
clerks of African blood or descent. nor
shall any white clerk or employee be
placed under the orders. direction or
supervision of any person Of African
blood or descent
