The invalidation of the Virgins
law barring Negroes from voting
in primary elections vas only one
step in campaign effected against
disfranchisement Of Negroes in
southern states, Negro leaders yes
terday stated.
A case similar to the Virginia
case, originating in Texas, is ex-
pected to come before the U. S. su-
preme court, which, in it's 1927 de-
cision had already declared .uncon-
stitutional Texas law barring Ne
groes from primary voting.
In 1927 the U. S. supreme court
unanimously held unconstitutional a
Texas law, enacted in 1924, specific
ally barring Negroes from voting
in the democratic state primary
elections.
Both Texas and Virginia laws con-
travene the principle there laid
down, by empowering the state COM
mittees to prescribe conditions for
party membership and therefore for
primary voting, the plain intent of
these laws being to transfer the
power to bar Negroes from the leg
islature to the party committee.

English and Americans have had
their hands in this last war but, as
the "Berliner Tageblatt" points out
with particular satisfaction, Ger

against Wuhan." 1t is not difficult
to guess why the japanese and the

of the Kwangsi group, at the out

the city, productive on the farm,
because the farm woman could use
the time saved from cleaning kero-

Howard did not say either, that
