By William Pickens

An honest and disinterested citi-
zen of the United States must SYM
pathize with the japanese opposition
to inviting the United States to take
any part in the deliberations of the
League of Nations in the effort to
settle the dispute between Japan and
China. The United States does not
recognize either Chinese OF Japanese
as being humans like other rationale
ties; both of the "orientals" are ex-
cluded from immigration to America,
as if they were infected animals.
The United States is not member
of the league; both Japan and China
are members. Why should Japan toll
erate the participation of nom
member-especially of a non-member
who has the Japano-phobia of any
nation on earth. We legislate against
Japanese on the Pacific Coast as if
they were a species of lower ami
mails; we segregate their children and
rob them of their property, and for
bid them the equal chance to make a
living on our soil. How can they
think that we would be fair
"judge"in a dispute where they are
party i'm interest?
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1931-10-29
JAPAN OBJECTS

We always have shown Partially
to the Chinese, simply because the
Chinese are weaker. We despise both
of them, but we always favor the
weaker of the two against the strong
err. That is the best way to keep
both of them down; and that is the
we'll established tact of the oppres-
sor-to play off the weaker of those
whom he would keep down, against
the stronger. Japan knows that the
only reason why we "love" China
more, is that China is weaker and not
much of rival against us. And if
the Chinese had as much sense as
Japanese, the Chinese would under
stand that, too.
We have been staying out of the
League of Nations largely because
if we Joined we would have to sit or
terms of equality with such yellow
and brown dogs as Chinese and Jap
anese. But, now that these two Gin
|ferior" nations have a quarrel be-
tween them, we want the high and
brightly privilege of stepping in as q
ljudge-and perhaps make sure OF
ldowning the stronger of them. just
like us! But Japan objects, and
am exercising my honest CUTS to the
extent of commencing them.

TEXAS PRIMARY
CASE REACHES
SUPREME COURT


WASHINGTON. - TIL e United
States Supreme Court, last Monday,
decided to consider the question of
the constitutionality of a Texas stat
ute under which the Democratic
party of that state excludes colored
from voting in primary elections by
granting a petition for a writ of GER
tiorari in the case of DR.. l.. A. Nixon,
of FL Paso.
DIR. Nixon sued James Condor and
C. N. Kelle, precinct election Judges,
for $4,000 damages for their refusal
to allow him to vote in the 1928 pri-
mary election for the nomination of
candidates Of the Democratic party.
His suit was dismissed by the Unit
ed States Court for the western dis
trict of Texas, and he then appealed
to the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals for the fifth circuit, and
that appellate court affirmed the
judgment of the district court.
DIR. Nixon declares that the action
of the election judges in denying him
the right to vote at the primary cleo
ton constitutes, in effect, the action
of the state itself because it was TAX
en- under state auth0ffty.
The United States Supreme Court
sustained his appeal and declared I'M
constitutional a Texas statute which
provided that ''in no event shall a
colored person be eligible to partici-
pate in a Democratic party primary
held in the state of Texas" The
court found that it violated the equal
protection clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment to the Constitution.
The legislature of Texas, in 1927
repealed the act of 1923, which the
Supreme Court declared unconstitu-
tional, and enacted in its place the
statute which provides: Every pc.
litical party in this state through its
state executive committee shall have
the power to prescribe the qualifi
cations of its own members and shall
in it's own way determine who shall
be qualified to vote or otherwise
participate in such political party"
The distinction between the case
under the 1923 statute and the one
under the 1927 statute is that DR.
Nixon was denied permission to vote
in the former by the State statute
and in the latter by resolution of the
State Democratic Committee. AS the
Texas statute of 1927 is modelled
after similar statutes in other South
ern states, the Nixon case is regard
ed as a test case and it's decision j.
expected to have bearing on the
question of Federal regulation o1
primaries.

Negro leaders, near leaders and

belongs to the man who built it, and
over seat that DR.. Lacey x. Will
lams promised them that he would
not keep, but four years but has held
for nine. Baptists have one or two
state fights and fuses going on over
dying institutions.
The Methodists are fighting over
bishops and babies. The laymen do
not want any more bishops. They
| say they are Injuries. Times are
too hard to invest in luxuries. Bishop
Grant has signed un to look after his
