The petition charges that whereas
plaintiff and other Negro citizens
have been taxed to build and main
tain the new city auditorium, those
to whom the building is leased dis
criminate against Negroes in the sale
of tickets solely on the ground that
they are Negroes. It is to stop this
unconstitutional policy that the in.
junction is sought.

Texas Vote Bar
Again News Topics

New York, Aug. 31.-Emil Hurja,
assistant to James A. Farley, chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee, charged last week that
the protest of Walter White, secre-
airy of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People,
to several Democratic senators
against the failure of Mr.. Farley's
office to act on the barring of Ne
groes frim Texas Democratic priIna-
ries CONSTITUTES an act of discour-
tesy." The accusation was contained
in a letter addressed to Mr.. White
on August 10, following the receipt
by Mr.. Hurja of copies Of letters
written by the N. A. A. C. P. Sec
rotary telling senators of futile e.
forts to get any action from him.
Replying to the accusation Of dis
courtesy in letter dated August 23,
Mr.. White declared, 81 would, how
ever, far rather be accused of 'ds-
courtesy than be guilty of failure
to take every possible step to prevent
gross violation Of the federal consti-
tuition and the fiouting Of decisions
of the United States supreme court
by the officials of certain state DEM
ocratic committees. 's .s,
SIN the present instance we are
faced with fact and not theory.
The fact is that continued CORE
spondence between Mr.. Farley and
yourself on the one hand and this
Association on the other has failed
signally: to elicit single definite
statement from you that the Demo-
cratic National Committee, it, chair
man, or it's assistant to the chairman
have taken or will take any steps
whatever, even in the way of advice,
to prevent the barring of qualified
Negro voters from participation in
the state primaries"
~ presume you will consider this
further act of discourtesy, but we
are supplying copies Of your letter
of August 1S and of this reply to
the same Democratic senator's to
whom we have previously written in
order that they may be kept in
formed of the apparent unwilling
ness of the national committee to act
in this grave situation"
