A TIMELY MOVE

Whatever may be our opinion of Frank Murphy as
governor Of the State of Michigan,-we have great
admiration for his latest move as Attorney General
of the United States. In the last few years the OPP
pressed groups Of this country have grown increas-
inqv articuate and the widespread infringement OF
the Civil Rights of these groups have resulted in
loud. strident scream of protest The government
has realized the seriousness Of these cries but no IN
vestigation or program of action was actually I'M
dertaken.
Last week, however, it was apparent that the new
Attorney General who scoffed at in some quarters
for his humanitariansm was considering definite
plan to relieve tense situation He sent several
investigators to study the problems of the share
troopers in Missouri which reached crisis several
weeks ago and were cimaxed by mass demonstrations
without precedent in rural America. According to
the United States News Scarcely three weeks after
taking office, Mr. Murphy launched nationwide
investigation into this problem of protecting civil lib
critics. The Attorney General is even considering
the establishment Of new bureau within the Depart
ment of Justice to protect such rights as his nvesti
cation may disclose to be violated"
Tbe Negro minority in America certainly must
welcome this move as we are doubtless the worst
sufferers when it comes to abuse of Constitutional
rights. Civil Liberties guaranteed by our Consttu
ton represent the very essence Of our form of gov
eminent and without them we become like the pawns
Of Germany and Italy who follow their Pied Pipers
any where. We regret that the movement to protect
these rights has been so long delayed.

In closing we can only say with
one Of Mr.. Rutledge's personages
that "it will be daybreak SOON

THE DIXIE POLL TAX

Last week the solons of Georgia remained true to
tradition and voted down proposed amendment TO
the state constitution which would have eliminated
the poI tax and permitted thousands of poverty
stricken mortas to exercise the franchise. The ac-
ton of the Georgia legislature is not only blow to
the Negro citizens but~it forbids political partlcipa-
ton to the masses of whites as we'll The poll tax IN
Southern politics has long made joke out of the Con-
stitution of the United States and permitted the most
flaqrant abuses of our democratic form of govern
ment wherein the majority, rich or poor, are sup
posed to rule
These same Southerners who wish to maintain
the poll tax and keep the poor away from the Pos

has been vigorously revived, in order to meet the

that by their own abuses of democracy they them

THE DEBTTo YOURSELF

THE DEBT TO fotKSEtr-----
You owe it 10 yourself to save
part Of what you earn. The time
Of beginning should not be delayed
longer than your next pay day. You
can do it if you will wear little
less, eat little less and go little
less. While you are strong, healthy
and working, don't be wastefHl, ex-
travagart and careless with your
money. Remember-the time is COM
ing when you will not be able 10
earn as much as you now receive.
Every dollar that you work for
represents that much Of you. It is
your sweat and blood. Every time
you make a pay day, you are that
much oIder-that much more worn
that much nearer the grave. Then
why squander that which repre-
sants the outgoing Of your very
life?
Let us learn 70 save, We owe
it not only to ourselves but to the
race 10 become financially indie
pendent. We. the Negro. will never
be respected never be peweEfgl-so
long as we are a poor and poverty
stricken people
