Virginia Blacks Are Not Barred

Virginia democrats must have been sleeping at the
switch. Failure OF their representatives 70 take an
appeal to the United States supreme court within the
statutory time leaves negro democrats free 10 partici-
pate in democratic primaries. This according to
a Richmond dispatch.
Time for appealing from the decision expired Sat
urday last. It will be recalled that the United states
circuit court of appeals held that three negro demo-
Gratis were entitled to vote in the primary in spite
Of the party plan which barred all except white vot-
ers from participating.

There were others. though. who
would have agreed readily that
Celia Rogers. away from the broil-

TO be singled out in almost any
gathering.
II was Celia's pretty face which
had led Helen Spencer to treat her
as a confidante. though the two
never met except in class rooms.
For two years Spencer had fol-
lowed directly after Rogers" on
high school class rolls. and an odd
sort OF intimacy had developed be-
tween the two girls.
Helen's father was a member or
the city's most important financial
group. Celia was the daughter or
a filter In a Charles street dress
shop. Celia's mother had earned
those few coins remaining In the
girls purse. For a long time now
Mrs. Rogers had earned every cent
which had paid for food and lodg-
ing for herself and her daughter.

Ger sat side by side in French class
and during ordeals Of mathematics
and chemistry, and though Celia
could describe all Of Helen's party
dresses and most Of the parties at
which they had been worn. she had
not been invited to the Spencer
home. She had not even expected
such an invitation.
Both girls were graduated now

NJ Celia Rogers lunch had been a
glass OF milk and sandwich eaten
at a coda fountain counter. The
three little coins IN her purse would
have tctaled less than the price OF
the rich mixture Of fruits and cream
which Helen Spencer was consum-
