A Gesture But NOT Enough

japanese propaganda pressure of a
small portion of an obviously I'M
| just law is an acknowledgement OF
''our mistakes in the past" and the
correction Of same.
MORE DISCRIMINATION
The bill passed by Congress is
not correction of this grevious
wrong. 1t merely adds further dis
elimination to an act. which had
its roots in racial bias, bigotry and
arrogance. For it says to the
Chinese in the old divide and rule
pattern, you are better than those
other Asiatics, but not quite as
good as we white men, SO We'll
let a few of your race in, but the
others must remain excluded.
No effort has been made TO
lower the racial barriers the
Exclusion Acts raise against
the rest Of Asia's pe0pIes-the
Indians, Japanese, Sumatrans,
Malayans or those other darker
people, the Africans, all of
whom, il British and American
leaders would but let them,
could be strong opponents of
the common enemy of fascism.
Here is gross mistake that
still remains unacknowledged.
1t is a mistake that is being
gleefully used by Japanese propa-
gandists to turn millions Of color
ed peoples, anxious to be on our
side against us. 1T is one that
might well prove to be tragic in
! light of our growing offensive in
the Pacific theatre.
JAPS SEEKING FRIENDS
The Japanese, well aware of
British and American intentions of
recapturing all of the territories
from which they were driven in
the Pacific, have started a demago-
gic. but extremely effective cam
paign to win the friendship of the
inhabitants of these islands. They
have accorded freedom" to their
puppet government in Burma, are
moving toward the same direction
in the Philippines, Malaga and
the Indies.
Despised, subjected and cruel
" exploited by their former
Dutch and British masters, the
natives are easily sold by the
japanese on the idea that
they must aid the Sons. Of

new found freedom

As a reaction against the pro-

our mistakes of tile past and to

AS passed by the house the re-
vised law permits total Of los
Chinese to enter the country each
year, and corrects a half-centlTy
of injustice by granting citizenship
to those Chinese, not natives OF
America, who are already here.
FAR FROM TRUTH
On the face of it, this move by
Congress, appears as magnami-
nous gesture of an America NOV
ing toward the broad and liberal
viewpoint necessary to the assump-
ton of world leadership. But clos
er examination reveals this to be
far from the truth.
1t is a step in the right direc-
ton, but only a step when the
exigencies of our war in the
Pacific demand that we move
several miles. Certainly it will
not silence japanese pr0pagan-
da as the President anticipate
ed. If anything it brings into
clearer focus the hypocritical
attitude, based on racial arro-
gance that has marked the
white mans dealings not only
with Asiatics, but ali members
of the colored races for the
past two centuries.

DISCRIMINATION ADMITTED

The supporting brief submitted
by the National Lawyers Guild as
serts: For defendant Albright,
the election Judge, frankly admitted
this discrimination. No attempt was
made to determine whether white
persons were, or were not, party
members. He said:
20. Mr.. Albright, when a white
person comes into the polling place
during the primary election of
1910 and asks for a ballot to vote
do you ever ask them what party
they be- ing to? A. No, we never
ask them.

white elector comes into the polling
place TO vote in the Democratic
primary election, he is given a
ballot to vote; is that cor"ectP A.

ted to vote in the primary election?

%. But any white person that
is qualified; regardless of what party
they belong to, they can vote? A.
That is right.
20. And you do let them vote? A.
Yes"
The ACLU brief states that the
recent history of the white primary
in Texas shows a studied intent to
disfranchise the Negro. "It hardly
needs to be Said," reads the brief,
that the commands of the con-
stitution have not been uniformly
accepted as to assure full partici-

indicates, among other things, that
the Democratic party is not a close

sociation with the usual attributes
of such bodies; that the election
laws of the State of Texas are
actually SO closely integrated with
primary procedures that they can
not be separated from the actions
of the Democratic party; and that
the primary is, in fact, the election

Basis for NAACP argument in
support of its third case is supplied
by the recent United States VS..
Classic case which, involving the
Louisiana primary essentially SINH

ed in favor of Classic, the high
court judgment being that the pri-

state law and therefore subject to
federal control.

Cory Use Stomp;
July IS DeodIine

Lewis Penwell, Collector of In
ternal Revenue for the District OF
Montana reminds taxpayers that
the new auto use tax stamp is now
on sale in all post offices through
out the state and at the office of the
Collector at Helena. The cost of the
stamp is $500.
This stamp must be exhibited on
every automobile and truck in use
on the highways on July |, 1943
and thereafter. The stamp should
be affixed to the inside of the wind
shield in the lower right-hand cor
ner
Mr.. Penwell further suggests it is
exceedingly important that all car
users purchase their stamps with
out delay. On July 18th, govern
ment agents throughout the state
will subpoena all car owners who
do not have new auto use stamps
affixed to the Windshields of their
cars, and these persons will at that
time be declared delinquent and
subject to the penalties provided by
law.
1t is not the desire of the office
of the Collector of Internal Revenue
to assert penalties, but representa-
tives of that office will have no
alternative unless they find that au-
to use stamps have been purchased
and properly affixed on or before

penalties
