BApT|5T5 REFLECT JEMI50N FOR
FOURTH TERM AFTER He
RETRA(T5 pR0-50UTH Speech

DALLAS, Sept. II (ANP)-|
Brushing aside a small but certain
element of opposition, the forces
behind President D. V. Jemison
succeeded quite handily in having
him reelected by acclamation to
fourth term to head the largest
denomination of Negro Christians,
the National Baptist convention,
Inc, here.
The move to suspend the rules
whereby a committee on nomina-
tions would report it's views at a
later hour is what precipitated the
only real fight Of an otherwise
smoothly running convention. Dr.
E. w. Perry of Omaha, a regional
vice president, was presiding and
received the motion from the Rev.
James S. Anderson also of Ohama.
Immediately DR.. J. Raymond
Henderson of Los Angeles jumped
to his feet and objected to the sus-
picision declaring that "for years
we have made ourselves the laugh
ing stock by suspending rules in
order to elect man." He was met
with sporadic booing. 81 take the
position before this supreme con-
vention," he shouted as opposition
grew, "that rules are made to be
obeyed and not broken or suspend

ed." There were more boos and he
threatened to demand division of
the house $50 we may know who
are the registered delegates to this
convention"
In spite of Henderson's ten
aciousness and determination to be
heard, Jemison was acclaimed pres
ident of the organization. This was
not achieved, however, until
statement made by him earlier in
his address had been voluntarily
retracted.
In speech filled with invective
and insinuation directed at the
chairmen of various subordinate
groups Of the convention, DR.. Jemi-
son discussed race relations and
ran directly into a hornets nest
that threatened to split the organ
ization when he declared that "the
southern Negro and the southern
white man have got to work out
their problems with each other
without interference on the part of
anybody"
He had no sooner finished his
address than the Rev. A. Windel
Ross of Los Angeles took the floor
and rejected ''the doctrine that the
white man and the Negro of the
south must work out their des-
tiny" He went on to declare it to
be his belief that the convention
also would refuse "to go on record
leaving the solution of our national
problem in the hands Of any sec
tion."
The yeas that followed Ross
fervent rejection made it quite evil
dent that President Jemison had
he himself grasped the gavel and
committed faux pas for later on
knocked for order and declared that
he would voluntarily withdraw that
language objected to.

DR.. Jemison, however, did not
fail to criticize the requirement of
a poll tax for voting in eight south
ern states, nor did he hesitate to
say that "pure democracy means
civil liberties and the four free
doms for every man irrespective
of race or color"
Democracy is a farce unless it
is meted out to all men alike" he
asserted. "There can be no democ-
racy when one race is Disseminated
against for another because of
their weakness and their inability
to help themselves"
