Bulgaria one of the unhappest of the dismal
retinue OF Axis European satellites, is becoming a
current focal point of Allied power politics
The Bugars, already pretty well convinced that
history is repeating itself almost literally have
grandstand seat for the spreading Axis debacle The
threshold of Rumania. They in the pathway of
any Allied invasion through Asia Minor with the
prospect of becoming battlefield like italy, Further
more most of Bulgaria has been brought within the
reach of Allied air powereVen bomberS with fighter
escort
For the fifth time in two months a heavy
formation of American Flying Fortresses bombed Sofia
recently The Bulgarian capital is now little more
than an hours flying time from the new Allied
air bases along the heel of the italian Boot. AS
these bases improved and expanded it is logical
to expect that there will be an increasing use of
Allied air power against Balkan targets-and Sofia
is prime target not only for political but military
reasons.
But for German pressure Bulgaria doubtless would
already be moving out of the war However we may
be sure that the Gestapo and the German Army
have taken all possible steps to safeguard against such
contingency. But because of the need for such
care, Bulgaria has become almost much of a
liability asset to the Axis cause King Boris
was not able to take the kingdom into war against
Russia and among the rank and file of the Bugarians
there is pronounced sympathy for Uncle Ivan, y
as the Bulgars have been wont to call Russia The
zeal with which the Bugarians would discharge their
Axis obligations when spread to the Balkans

There is however, ground for complacency

it does not touch the Staying of innocent people in
riots Deros orgy of last cost the lives
of people than have been lynched in the South
in several years. This and other outbreaks of racial
feeling and the lynching in Illinois very strongly
indicate that the problem of assuring protection tc
minorities is moving northward There is not much
choice between mobs called ynchers and other mobs
called rioters And if any distinction is to be drawn
between the sheriff who opens Jail to mobsters at
pistol point and police squads who recklessly shoot
down Negroes in the midst of general excitement the
latter be the most culpable In spite of the
improved record of lynchngs, many of States in

DEMOCRATIC HARMONY

Here is the inside story of why
that threatened revolt by Mid
western Democratic leaders at the
Democratic National Committee
meeting in Washington last week
fizzled
National Committeeman James C.,
Quigley of Nebraska, the number
one insurgent, served notice when
he arrived in Washington that he
was going to touch off some bomb
shells against the Administrations
farm program, against its patron
age, and was going to demand the
removal of Claude Wickard as Sec
rotary of Agriculture.
However. the rebellion fell through
at a two-hour secret meeting of
the Midwestern group where hard
hitting Governor Bob Kerr of Ok
lahoma got chief credit for nipping
the revolt in the bud. Governor
Kerr told Judge Quigley and other
insurgents that they would be play
ing into Republican hands if they
did anything to create disunity in
the Democratic Party.
Cur major conflict is with the
Republican Party, declared the
Oklahoma Governor. TO win this
years election, we must present a
solid front The Republicans are
doing a lot of wrangling among
themselves over Wendell Willkie.
Let's not fall into the same trap.
There are twelve hungry wolves
waiting outside-the press" Gov
ernor Kerr continued. And l for
one am not in favor of feeding
them"
Governor Kerr also paid great
tribute TO Eugene Casey, whom
Midwestern committeeman favored
as the New National Chairman in
stead OF Hannegan. There is
nothing in Washington too good
for Gene Casey" asid Kerr. But
we don't want anything to happen
here which would detract from the
President and complete party unity
behind him"
Therefore, he proposed that Casey
be elected Vice Chairman of the
committee. and resolution was
voted unanimously to this effect,
subject to the approval of the Presi-
dent. Subsequently, the President
decided that, as Casey was on the
White House staff as his own ex-
ecutive assistant, it would be brand
ed as a pure fourth term drive to
have Casey serve also as Vice
Chairman of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee.

PROGRESS

One hopeful note on life in the United States is
the report from Tuskeegee Institute showing decided
drop in ynchings in 1943. Only three persons were
murdered by mobs last year, compared with five in
1872 four in 94l and five in 1870 That is notable
Improvement 1t is a national disgrace, of course,
that any accused citizen was put to death without
benefit of trial Every thoughtful citizen must
blush with shame for this vestige of barbarism at
time when engaged in a world war for
democracy and decency Yet the record of last year
indicates that some States making encouraging
progress in clearing their records of this blot.
On the face of the current report special con-
CALCULATIONS due to Mississippi which has often
in the past been foremost among the States in which
lynchings occur In 1912 Mississippi had three
ynchings in week. In 1912 its slate remained clean
For that matter of the States which permitted
mob murders within their borders in 1912 is on the
black list Just issued The offending States in
1912 were Florida, Georgia and Illinois One might
draw this fact the hopeful deduction that the
scorn heaped upon the lynching States last year
spurred their Acknowledgement officials to greater

meeting agreed with Kerr that har-
mony was the best policy. In the
end, Quigley dropped his revolt.
