Battering Barriers Of Prejudice

purpose was obviously to write in
to federal law the anti-intermar-
riage legislation which all Of the
southern states and several in the
North had enacted.
Upon receiving the spirited pro-
test of the N. A. A. C. P. Senator
Capper promptly agreed to remove
the offensive clause relating to ra-
cial inteImarriage. Later, in a con-
ference with James w. johnson,
secretsry of the Association, Sena-
tor Capper revealed that he had
introduced the bill at the request
of group of women's organiza-
tons and had done so without CIV
ing its entire text careful study.
That the real purpose of the bill
was to enact federal anti-intermar-
riage legislation is clear from the
fact that nothing more was heard
of it.

menace TO the whole Institution Of
natrlmony, leading directly to con-
cubinage, bastardy and the deorad-
alton OF the Negro woman. No
man-made law can stop the union
of the races. If intermarriage be
wrong its prevention is best lett
to public opinion and to nature.
I'VE oppose it for the physical
reason that to prohibit such inter-
marriage would be publicly to ack-
nowledge that black blood is a ply
steal faint, something no self-re-
specting colored man and woman
can be asked to admit. We oppose
it for the moral reason that all
such laws leave the coIored girl
absolutely helpless before the lust
of the white man, without the pow
err to compel the seducer to mar
ry. The statistics of intermarriage
in those states where it is permit
ted show this happens SO infre-
quently as to make the whole mat
ter of legislation unnecessary :"

EIGHTEEN SHERIDAN co. BOYS
FORCED TO QUIT QUARRY JOB
Working Conditions Are
Unbearable and Wages
Low
BY Hans Rasmussen

Of the 20 young men sent to
Saco from here a couple of weeks
ago on the rock picking and load
ing job, only two remained-and
very likely they too have quit by
this time.
Of the 18 some refused to go to
work after looking over the con-
ditions. The rest of them had enuf
of it after sleeping on the ground
and working three days. They
quit the job. Some Of them are
returning home and others are
going to Glasgow looking for an
other job.
The place where these men were
working is out in the hills some
where where there are plenty Of
rocks, twenty miles from no
where" Sleeping quarters are un-
limited. They are allowed to lay
down and go to sleep On the prairie
any place they want to. They can
eat anything and as much as they
want. just so that they bring it
themselves and prepare their own
meals. If they can find slough
hole with water, they are allowed
to drink all the water they want,
free of charge. It is a free coun-
try.
No Place to Sleep
When 18 out of 20 men quit a
Job, there is something wrong with
the job. The place where these
men were SEN to work is known
as Tobin Quarry. There is plenty
of work but no place to sleep, and
food they have to provide them
selves.

GO. DEMOCRATS
START WORK FOR
A FUSION TICKET
Believe it Is Their Turn to
Elect Candidates This
Time

Phe precinct committeeman of
the Democratic Party have met in
Plentywood and have discussed
plans for this years election cam
paign. A committee was appointed
to work out fusion ticket of
democrats and republicans.
In regard to the fusion policy
the Plentywood Herald points out
In is last issue: '"The rank and
file of Democrats and Republicans
alike are not only agreed upon
that method as being the only eff
fective one, but also are mindful
of a definite obligation given two
( years ago when members of the
Democratic party willingly gave
their supper to candidates selected
for the most part by Republicans"
Last time the Republicans Sc
lecteG the candidates and the
. Democrats had to support them. A
this election the Democrats think it
is. their turn to put men into Of
flee and they count very much on
the support of the Republicans.
Although so far the Republicans
have not shown their attitude to-
wards a fusion ticket doubtless, the
fear of an effec i've Communist
campaign will bring the twin par
ties together.
!, However, what candidates will
adorn the fusion ticket has not at
: all been decided, and the democrats
who, because of the Roosevelt pro-
| gram believe that they should be
the ones to make the selection
may yet get their surprise. The
Republicans are not at all con-
WINGED, it seems, thai the NRA ha:
made such a hit and that the
Roosevelt program is such a goot
j.. basis for an election campaign. L
i therefore seems very unlikely tha
e the Republicans will turn over tn,
r show for he Democrats to run.
And there will be some hot argu
a ments, worries and troubles in tn
). twin-camps before the stage is al
set.
