Deep in the Heart
OF Texas"

There certainly is no interracial
harmony between white and Ne
gro citizens involved in the con-
troversy with regard to voting in
the Democratic Primary of Texas
An all-white grand jury has de-
MED Federal authorities an indict
ment against officials of a recent
Democratic Primary who had re-
fu.ed to let Negro citizens vote
in the primary. The grand .1ry
stated that these officials had
committed no crime; that they
merely had acted in conformity
to the wishes of perhaps 20 or
so per cent of the population of
this state" The grand jury as
sumed that, inasmuch as 70 per
cent of the Texas population is
white, all of these are Martin Dies
Democrats and are sold" on the
ACCESSIBILITY of lily-white Dem
oeratic Primary.
If Negroes do not like this ar
rangement, the grand jury hints
that no objection will be offered
if Negroes will band together and
form a political party from which
all white citizens will be barred.
Such an arrangement recalls the
one the rooster tried to effect
with the horse, which would slip
ulate that the horse and rooster
would agree to live together in
the barnyard and each would
avoid stepping on the others feet.
The white grand jury poured
some banana oil' ON the troub-
led waters in language as follows:
NEGRO citizens of Texas are
not without pride and will not
thrust themselves forcibly into a
group until they are invited into
such group, for TO do so, the
Negro understands it would invite
bitterness"
And why did they bring up that
word "bitterness?" 1t merely sug-
gested to intelligent Negroes to
express themselves in language
that is Unusual for Negroes in
deep Dixie" Here is the recep-
tion the banana oil' got from
Negroes who commented on what
the white folks said:
'The despicable ends to which
some people go and the equally
malicious depths to which many
Americans stoop to deny Negroes
full democratic par icipation
make this country appear in the
eyes of decent and thinking peO-
pie little more than vast corpor-
ate hypocrisy. White America
needs to rid herself of all bigot-
ries, jeaIousies, hatreds and fears
that have blotted and blurred the
pages of the past. Only as Amer
lea does this, will she make a gen
GRAFTON of fair-minded men and
women who are able to see one
another as brothers and deal with
one another Justly"
After reading the above COM
ment maze by the Negro commit
tee in reply to the philosophy of
the grand jury that was seeking
to rationalize Texas election
thievery, as carried on by the de-
vice of a white Democratic Prim-
airy, we are positive that there
were no appeasing Uncle Toms
on the colored committee which
expressed itself in such lovely
language.
We object to one term in the
comment. That one is the refer

Compares Workers Lot
With Soldiers Ordeal

To the Editor a dispatch, dated
at Washington, March Is, stating
that two calkers in Oakland, Cal.
are claiming $3.50 each for eight
hours work. The average fellow
around here is trying desperately
to save enough money out of his
months salary to buy one Defense
Bond costing $18.75.
We will have to do better than
this and scrimp some more for it
will require little more than II
of these bonds to pay two men
the $50 they are asking for one
short days work, $40 an hour.
This is the brand of patriotism
which, if continued, will cause us
to lose the war Are we going to
sit quietly and let such Things hap
pen? Are we going to sit quietly
and supinely and let the rapa-
ciousness of organized labor and
war munitions manufacturers des
troy our way of life?
l hold them equally guilty. Is
it any wonder the people are
clamoring for Legislation to stop
this conscienceless marauding? 1t
is any wonder the war is going
against us?
And let us not forget that our
boys are over there fighting and
being killed, blown with their
pitifully inadequate air equipment
from the skies, torpedoed and
shelled and drowned in the ocean,
strafed with machine guns and
bombs, on land, for $21 a month,
heir only hope being that they
may get out with their lives.

ence to white America" 1t car
ries with it the idea that ALL
white Americans favor white
primaries, and endorse the dis
honest reasoning done by the
Texas grand jury, and the ma
jority of white Americans are OPP
posed to all-white primaries. 1t
is doubtful if a proposal to adopt
che Texas scheme of disfranchise-
ment could carry in a half dozen
states of the nation, with white
citizens doing all of the voting.
And any person who has sat in
