Already there is too much talk of
ldis-egarding, evading, or multiplying
the Supreme Court decision. If there
was ever q time for the South to be
WISE fair and calm that time is now.
70 a-l who believe in justice and de-
mocracy, we commend the resolution
adopted by the Georgia Committee on
lnterracial Cooperation at its recent
annual meeting. We also commend
the excellent editorial "Voting bv Ne
groes,' in the Macon, Ga, News of
April 5. After reviewing the situa- |
ton at length, the editor concluded: !
Allowing the vote to Negroes of
character and intelligence is not in !
compatible with the genius of Ameri- /.
can institutions. Denying it, solely /
on account of color, is inconsistent with
the American ideal of fair treatment
for all. We cannot honestly fight a |
war for justice and freedom while. on
account alone of racial prejudice. we
are denying the lawful rights of cit
izenship to large segment of our
own population. 49,

april 1914 Southern Frontier)


The recent Supreme Court decision
IN the Texas white primary case is a
challenge to the honesty and sense az
justice Of Southern people. Ia. caaI
lenge demands a planned. constluc-
tive program of citizenship education
for those who now vote and for those
who would become the new voters
under relaxation of the primary
laws that now keep Negroes Gin their
place politically in several Southern
states.
There are dangers Of over-optimism
among Southerners with a will-to-
justice and decency. No one can hon
estly believe that an edict of the Su-
preme Court is going to bring full
political citizenship to 100000 Ne
groes who now live in the South. We
cannot believe that, devious political
practitioners are going to accept this
decision in spirit and letter and well
come the disfranchised black sheep in
to the political party fold. It is going.
to take work and intelligence to tear,
down system that has evolved thru
decades of shrewd legislation design
ed to keep the Negro out of politics."

to the autogiro, primarily in thai
it has a large rotor, or blades
which act as airfoils and provid
the lift. Motion forward, bach

by changing the pitch of the roto
blades. The chief respect in which
it differs from the airplane and
autogiro is that it does not haw
the conventional type Of propelle
