LAUNCH VOTE
CAMPAIGN In
N. CAROLINA

DURHAM, N. c. (ANP) Under
the leadership of C. C. spaulding,
president of the North Carolina
Mutual Life Insurance Company,
a concerted effort to urge Negroes
throughout the State of North Car
DINA to vote in large numbers in
the forthcoming election In June,
was launched here at a mass meet
ing held Sunday at the Algonquin
Tennis Club House.
In opening the meeting, Mr.
Spaulding, the presiding officer,
outlined the necessity Of Negroes
exercising their right of franchise,
pointing out that the ballot was the
most effective weapon the racial
group possessed in combating the
enemy. He further stressed the
need of Negro citizens striving to
hold the property which they have
bought and are buying and of sup
porting movements for the benefit
of the racial group.
Or. Shepard the key-Noter
DR.. ]. E. Shepard, president of
the North Carolina College for Ne
groes located in this city, was the
key-noter. He sounded the call for
action on the part of those who
were already registered in seeing
that those who were not registered
did so before the election in June.
ut is your duty" said DR.. Shep-
ard, "as citizens to see that your
neighborhool is organized and that
everyone eligible to vote is regis
tered. There are hundreds of citi-
zens right here in our city who are
not registered and who do not re-
alize the value of the ballot.
Throughout the State of North
Carolina, there are thousands in
the same category. This condition
is not due just to their own negli-
gence or perhaps we nigh say ig-
norance, but to the fact that we
who profess to know what the bal
lot means, have neglected to i'm
press them with the power of the
weapon which is theirs if they win
only use it."

TENANT FARMERS
UNION THREATENS
STRIKE In DIXIE

MEMPHIS (ANP)-On the eve
of cotton planting in the rich Miss
issippi delta area, the Southern
Tenant Farmers union through
Executive Secretary H. L. Mitchell
has announced a strike of its APP
proximately 10000 members unless
plantation owners will agree to
fair contracts, the right of share
troopers to organize peacefully,
and no more evictions for union
membership.
This statement was made short
ly after negotiations between 108
evicted Negro tenant farmers liv-
ing in a tent colony near Parkin
and landowners in the controversy
over rental contracts had been side
tracked, and as federal represen-
tatives from Washington met with
big and little landowners here to
get details of the new conservation
program.
Although Brooks Hays, special
assistant to Reg Tugwell, RIA.
chief, had attempted to have a
meeting between landowners and
union representatives to iron out
differences, the landlords refused
to comply, the union declared.
"A strike on every plantation
for fair contracts for sharecrop-
pers and day laborers is apparent
ly the only way out for members
of the union" Mitchell asserted.
Our people are being locked out.
Our only answer can be to refuse
to plant cotton or help plantation
owners"
The union is asking that share
troopers be given a full settlement
at the end of each harvesting year
and that legal rates of interest be
charged them instead of the pre-
vailing rs to 100 percent. Wages
Of 81 each 10-hour day with Is
cents an hour overtime for day
laborers are also asked.
Reports reaching the union indi-
cate plantation owners are plan
ming to resort to violence to wipe
out the union which is growing
steadily in power and another Ell
aine Massacre" similar to that
perpetrated among Negroes in "a,
is rumored in the making for both
white and Negro sharecroppers.

tainer of poets" Mr.. Untermeyer
in replying, stated that Mr.. Braith-
waite had been a pioneer in mod
ern American poetry, whose SER
vices to the advancement of the
cause of poetry would have big
part in any history of this epoch.
Mr.. Untermeyer's life has been
unique in that he has had two dis
tinct careers and achieved success
in both. Entering the jewelry ma
nufacturing business at II, he be-
came a high executive in two large
manufacturing enterprises. In 1928
he resigned from business to de-
vote his entire time to writing and
editing. In the last Is years he
has written and published nineteen
volumes of verse, travel, fiction,
and criticism, several volumes of
which have run into a number OF
editions, has edited eight collec-
tions OF poetry, which have be-
come standard anthologies, and has
translated several books from the
German and Swiss. In addition he
has been voluminous contributor
to contemporary magazines, and
the contributing editor of several
others. He was accompanied on
his Atlanta trip by his wife, Esth-
er Antin Untermeyer, who at 25
