COMMENTS ON CURRENT TOPICS
By DR.. W. ALEXANDER cox

The opponents of the Anti
Poll Tax Bill are claiming that
the bill is unconstitutional, as
it interferes with state rights.
According to the Constitution
of the United States, togeth-
err with the Amendments, and
subsequent Civil Rights Bills,
no state has the right to de-
prive an American citizen of
his civil libertiesand certainly
not the right to place unsur-
mountable barriers against the
privilege of voting.
The Constitution, under
Democratic domination, has
been reduced to the proverbial
scrap of paper. The Supreme
Court has been so emasculated
by southern influence that it
most certainly would declare
such a bill unconstitutional if
it ever gets through the SEN
ate. Southernors have already
declared that If the bill does
become law it will not give the
franchise to colored citizens.
While the proponents of the
bill are canvassing the Senate
for a possible majority on the
the bill, the Democrats as US
ual are planning f1libuster.
BY this means they have de-
feated all legislation for the
advancement of colored peo-
pie that has reached the SEN
ate within the past so years.
Should cloture be invoked,
(Which is in truth a parlia-
mentary technicality) it is to
diScredit the minority group,
which happens to be Repub!i-
can and some Democrats
which represent districts where
the colored vote counts.
Cloture requires a two thirds
vote of the Senate before it
can be enforced. As a matter
of fact there has not been a
sufficient number of Republi-
cans in the Senate to block
a Democratic f1libuSter on an
anti-lynching bill or any other
bill protecting the civil liber-
ties of the colored people.
Had the Democrats been the
friends that they pretend to be
to the colored people, jim
Growing, segregation, olsen
franchisement and lynching
would have been wiped out
years ago.

support of the colored peple by
false prmises of what he would
do for the colored people if
elected, How soon it was for

a southerner, that he set Up

LETTERS TO
THE GUARDIAN
COLORED VOTERS MORE
INDEPENDENT a.. -,

To Editor of The Guardian:
Colored Americans in COM
mon with all other citizens are
much pleased with the cleo
ton results in this Common
wealth as well as in other
parts of the Country. The
candidates were supported on
the basis Of their records in
public Office rather than on
their promises. It is very APP
parent that the colored people,
now they have jobs, are more
independent in their voting
and are not only supporting
their friends, but those who
have served all the people well
in public office. It looks to me
as if we are beginning to real
ize that 1--WE are our brothers
keeper" and are voting to
protect those of us who live in
sections of the Country where
they cannot vote for them
selves.

The threat is coming more
and more into the open. The
poll-taxers of the Senate have
spoken. They will resort to any
means to prevent passage of the
anti-poll tax bill. They will re-
sort to filibuster. Twelve Of
them are reported pledged to
participate.
What is a f1libuster? A filibus-
ter in the Senate of the United
States is a device whereby a
small minority attempts, by any
or all means at its disposal, to
prevent the majority from act
ing. It is in a sense a blackmail
against the United States.
What a filibuster says in eff
feet Is: If you insist on acting
on this piece of legislation
which I don't like, then you will
have to stop all your work, all
the essential, important work Of
the Senate in connection with
winning the war, until I and my
colleagues who have joined with
me are through talking-and
that may be next year.
The overwhelming majority of
the people of the United States
know and have said that aboli-
ton of the poll-tax is an essen
tial war measure. But the fill
busters don't want it passed. 1t
would mean, just incidentally
perhaps, they would be defeated
In the next election, as soon as
the people of their states are al
lowed to vote.
1t would also mean an extern
sion of democracy in the United
States that would inspire the
peoples of the world, show them
that we mean what was said in
the Atlantic Charter by first
applying it at home.
In wartime who but a poll
taxer, representing only himself
and tiny group of selfish anti
democratic interests in his
state, could possibly deny that
a filibuster is treason?
THERE is WORK TO BE
DONE. THERE IS WAR WORK
TO BE DONE IN GETTING THE
ANTI-POLL TAX BILL PASSED.
Right now: Wire, write,
phone, YOUR OWN TWO SEN
ATORS. Tell them a filibuster
would be treason. Tell them you
expect them to fight for passage
of the anti-poll tax bill against
he'll, high water, filibusters or
any other enemy agents. THEY
