STRIKES BLOW
AGAINST POLL
TAX IN SOUTH
S Gu t h ern Publication
tapped Measure
Last Week

RICHMOND, Va. (ANP) - The
Southern Planter. one of the lars-
es. agricultural publications in the
south, belabored the opponents OF
the anti-poll tax measure in recent
issue. Editor Paul D. Sanders. writ.
ing on the subject. said: Only two
arguments have come forward
against our editorial last month
urging abolition Of the poll tax as
a prerequisite to voting. The stand
patters fear that the elimination OF
the capitation tax as a voting re-
quirement would I'd enable the
Southern Negro TO vote, and (2)
rob the public school system of
badly needed revenue poll tax
collections in Virginia now 90 10
the schools and local treasures.
Both arguments are spurious,
stemming in most cases. from en-
trenehed -effiee-holders who see
their security threatened by an en-
larged and enlightened electorate.
North Carolina. with a Negro pop
ulation nearly double that of vir-
GINA. abolished the poll tax as
voting requirement in 1920 and
white supremacy has never been
challenged in that state. Actually.
larger percentage Of Negroes are
voting in Virginia than in North
Carolina. The poll tax Is an ingeni-
ously conceived and cleverly car
ried out device for diminishing the
total number OF voters II bars from
the polls very large segment OF
underprivileged southerners. white
and colored. who are unable finsn-
c:ally 10 meet the rigid monetary
requirements for voting. and de-
stroys the interest in public affairs
OF that most valuable OF all classes
OF voter: those citi ems too much
occupied with their own business
TO seek public office. II has de-
stroyed the two-party systematic
foundation OF democratic govern
ment. AS ore Southwest Virginian
told US recently. abolish the poll
tax and Republicans will spring up
in Southwest Virginia like thistle!
"As producing measure for
public schools, the Virginia poll
tax is a farce. Records reveal tina;
the tax brings II around 100000
year. and permits twice that amount
to 90 unpaid because the citizens
choose TO surrender their right 10
vote rather than pay the tax The
poll tax. therefore, is not revenue
measure. but means OF beating
down the size OF the electorate 80
that a group OF ruthless. highly or
gained office-holders can perpet-
uate their tenure OF office. A few
voters are easier TO control than
many.
Unless southern politicians can
come forward with a better defense
OF the poll tax than thus far pre-
senied. this instrument OF oppres-

Catherine C. Roy, Plaintiff,
VS..
James C. Roy, Defendant.
IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR
MONTGOMERY COUNTY
SITTING AS A
COURT OF EQUITY.

No. 11016 Equity.
The object of this suit is to pro-
cure divorce UincuIo matTimonii
by the plaintiff, Catherine C. Roy,
from the defendant, James C. Roy
The bill in substance states /:
That the plaintiff and the defend
ant were married February "a,
1910, in Chevy Chase, Montgom-
cry County, Maryland, by the Rev.
Hillman Hollister, a Minister of
the Gospel; that the plaintiff is a
resident of Montgomery County,
Maryland, residing at 1877 Grafton
Street, Chevy Chase, Maryland.
and has resided in said County
and State for more than one year
preceding the filing of this suit /;
that the defendant is a non-resi-
dent of the State of Maryland,
residing at 1910 Maryland Ave-,
N. E., in the City of Washington,
District of Columbia; that no chill
dren were born as a result Of the
aforesaid marriage; that after the
plaintiff and the defendant were
married they lived together as
husband and wife until March /,
1912, when the defendant, without
any just cause or reason, aban-
doned and deserted the plaintiff
and declared his intention to live
with her no longer, and that such
abandonment has continued un-
interruptedly since the said first
day of March, 1912, and is delib-
crate and final and the separation
of the parties is beyond any rea-
sonable expectation of a reconcile
alton; that the conducts of the
plaintiff haf always been kind,
affectionate and above reproach,
and she has never given the de-
fendant any just cause or reason
to desert her; but, on the contrary,
has behaved herself as faithful,
chaste and affectionate wife.
The bill then prays that the
plaintiff may be divorced q Vin-
culO motr'imoni from the defend
ant; that the plaintiff may resume
her prior name Of Catherine c..
Callan, and for such other and
further relief as the plaintiffs case
may require.
II is thereupon, this 9Th day Of
September, 1943, by the Circuit
Court for Montgomery County, as
Court Of Equity, ordered that
the plaintiff by causing a copy of
this order to be inserted in some
newspaper published in said Mont
gomery County once in each of
four successive weeks before the
9th day Of October, 1943, give
notice to the defendant, James G.
Roy, who is a nonresident Of the
State Of Maryland, Of the object
and substance Of this bill of com
plant, warning him to appear in
this Court, in person or by solici-
tor, on or before the 28th day Of
October next, to show cause, il any
he has, why a decree ought not
TO be passed as prayed.
