N. CAROLINA NEGROES PRO
TEST SEGREGATION; TAKE
NO PART IN RELIGIOUS MEET

Raleigh, N. C. (CNS) Because
Of dissatisfaction with "time-
honored' seating arrangements,
which require that Negroes enter
by a side door and sit in the gal
lery, Negro ministers and their
congregations refused to take
part in the religious dedication Of
the municipality owned War Mem
orial Auditorium held here last
week. Only twelve Negroes at
tended.

Negroes in the gallery at the civil
dedication the previous Sunday,
the colored ministers protested.

part in the religious ceremony
they unanimously refused to do
so unless some provision was made
for the seating of their congrega-
tons in a section on the ground
floor as well as a section in the
gallery.
The commissioners refused to
change their plans for seating
which required that Negroes sit
in the gallery which was reached

GOVERNOR ROOSEVELT AT
SIOUX CITY, SEPT. 29th
Special Train and Rates

Edward r. Burke, democratic
candidate for Congress from the
Omaha district is organizing q
caravan to go to Sioux City, Sept
29th, to hear Governor Roosevelt
deliver his address on agriculture
and Burke is anxious to have al
least 100 colored voters join the
caravan.
Governor Roosevelt has al
ways been considerable Of the
wants of the colored voters as any
other group said Burke, "and
he is anxious to have a large dele.
CATION of them at Sioux City.
Burke said that in. New York
the cOlored vote is almost solidly
behind Roosevelt.
Negro voters in Omaha ought
to vote the democratic ticket this
year" said Burke. Republicans
have always felt that they owned
this vote body and have always
ignored the wants Of the cOlored
people. If colored voters will
vote the democratic ticket this
year it will cause both parties to
acknowledge their power and
put the group where they can get
favors from the administration.
Burke plans to have his dele
CATION go by special train to Sioux
City. A round trip rate Of 81
the lowest railroad rate to Sioux
City IN twenty years-will be
charged.
Burke is organizing a colored
organization in every precinct in
the city where there are colored
voters. The aim will be to get
these residents to register and
vote for him. He seeks the col
lored vote because Of his Justice
to Them while he was president of
the Omaha School board.
