people may again be called to clear.
We are all one country now There is
no North, nor South. We have a common
interests and are met upon a common bat
tlefield to defend the American principles
of government as never before. We can't
go to battle when a few un-American min
ded men are allowed to antimidate and CO.
cree some of our soldiers.
This country owes our people a debt it
a never pay. 1t can best assuage its OBJ
legation by nipping in the bud those move
ments designed to keep suffrage from
our hands.
The federal government should insti-
tute a rigid investigation and those friends

GET ON YOUR HORSE

There has been a praiseworthy in
crease of interest in spring and summer
community cleanup campaigns, which,
are designed to beautify our towns and CT
ties, raise the values of both bushes and
residential property, and reduce the haz-
ards of that dread destroyer, FIRE.
An announcement from the National
Board of Fire Underwater says that fire
chiefs from many sections of the country
have announced plans for radio broad
casts this season. and are widely
using self inspection blanks, given free by
the National Board, which makes it posi-
BILE for anyone to go through his home or
place of business, locate fire hazards, and
eliminate them.
Communities which have not yet PLAN
ned activities of this nature should, as the
saying goes, get on their horse. And where
towns are too small to have fire depart
ments, local officials, civic organizations
and individuals can get together and take
the lead. A cleanup campaign does not
involve any great expense of expenditure
of time. 1t does involve making repairs to
houses and buildings, painting structures
where needed, razing fire-trapS if ony ex-
list, keeping grass and weeds cut short on
empty lots and fields, etc, In many a case
an intensive week or so of work of this
sort, once real public interest is aroused,
will eliminate literally thousands OF fire ha-
yards, large arr small, and go a long way
toward making a major disaster in the
town impossible. =
Further these campaigns are a fine
stimuIant for local businesses which
sell paint, lumber and other materials u.s.
ed. They arouse pride in the community,
and cause many a lasting resolution by
citizens, to always keep their property in
good order and appearance. This spring
cleanup, in brief, helps to make the towns
of America beautifuI--and safe.

THE RED GANG RIDES AGAIN

lnL nLU UhNU nlULO HUHM
OF ALL THE WARS of history, none
have been more destructive than that
made on free government. A Democracy
like ours was especially designed to the
wishes of the people to be amended from
time to time and regulated by them. On
that score and that alone can a free gov
eminent exist.
Otherwise it is government without
the consent of the governed. The ell
gible citizens are the CuStodians of a type
of government like ours. When they fail to
function at the polls, they prevent the ex-
preston of the people and The government
falls into the hands of the minority.
Those who openly refuse to express
their wishes at the polls are parties to
those who would destroy free government.
Those who would fIagrantly intimidate vo-
tiers or work to keep them away from the
polls are guilty of treason against their
government.
No state or nation can lay a claim to
popular government when many of the
citizens are inundated and threatened
with bodily harm. No state or country can
or would hold out as a defender of a peo-
Pile while at the same time allowing hood
Pile while at the same time allowing hood
ed bands, with terrifying insignias, such
as scull bones and crosses, to attempt to
brighten voters away from the polls.
The right to vote is not exactly an in
herited right as might be thought, it is a
conferred right by the state. The state and
the state alone can withdraw this right.
When a state has conferred this right up
on a citizen he is clothed with the authori
ty of the state to exercise it.
If the state stands idly by and allows
this right to be knowingly abridged. then
it becomes a party to those who would in
terfere with a right it expressly has con-
conferred.
Not soon will the ugly orgy of Miami,
Florida be forgotten when coIored men,
clothed in their rights conferred by their
state were threatened by hooded bands
floating their inSignias wholly un-Ameri-
can and un-Christian.
While this is one way to arouse the
Col0red citizens to a sense of VOTING and
acceIerating their political interests, it is
an ugly picture, one that smadNs of prac-
tees foreign to the principles upon which
this country was founded.
1t must not be forgotten that a few
years ago, coIored soldiers by the side of
white soldiers went overseas to defend the
the conferred rights of the people. They
struggled the duration of that war to crush
down those who would usurp authority
and wrest from popular rule ITS vested
rights.
Citizens here at home feel that they
have been openly outraged in the Miami
affair. They feel that their government
should institute a rigid investigation and
bring before the bar the enemisS of free
government here at home. Our attention
is called to those who would scatter such
iSmS here in our W country as would
make open warfare right at our doors on
