! think he would begin little
crusading to equa,ize some of
the undemocratic conditions in

But is is useless to enter into an
argument with Brother Gibson on
the basis of reason and logic. His
attack was not designed to appeal
to reason. It's appeal is to preju-
dice, bigotry, hatred and blind
emotion. It's unmistakable purpose
was to smear this agency and
through it, President Roosevelt.
THREAT TO WAR AIM
The fact that he is appealing to
his fellow congressman to destroy
the only agency of government
which gives black Americans nope
that this war will result in making
real the freedom, justice and equal

says in so many words in his

Southern State
Primary Dates
Red Letter Days
Mississippi And
Georgia TO Vote
On July Fourth

WASHINGTON, D. G. (NNPA)
Because of the recent Supreme
Court decision on the Texas White
Primary, the primary dates in the
Southern states are being regarded
as red-letter days by candidates
and voters. Whether Negroes will
participate in the voting, or wheth-
er they will be denied the conSiitu-
tional guarantee of suffrage and
thus throw the elections into court
contests awaits the events of these
dates.
The first Southern states to hold
primary elections are Florida and
Alabama on May 2.
Because of recent legislation
bearing on soldier voting, Georgia
and Mississippi have moved p
their dates originally scheduled
for September 5 and August %,
respectively. Ironically, both have
set their primaries this year on In
dependence Day, July 4 - the day
commemorative American freedom
and liberty.
Texas, directly affected by the
Supreme Court decision, votes on
July %. Virginia's date is August
l. Tennessee's August 8 and Ark
aESaS' August 8.
South Carolina, unless changed
for an earlier date to felicitate
soldier voting, holds its primary on
August 90. Louisiana's date. set for
September IL, is also subject to-
change for the same reason.

They're Fighting A Losing Battle

Georgia comprise one-thlrd OF the
states population. Yet, with the
exception of teachers and a few
mental jobs as janitors, maids, gar
bage collectors, cooks and laborers,
not single black Georgian can be
found on the payroll of the state
government, or single city or
county in Georgia.
NOT ON PAYROLL
Not single one of the more
than one million Negroes in Geor-
gia draws pay as a policeman, dep
uty sheriff, bailiff, tax collector,
street inspector, state legislator
congressman, prison guard, deputy
clerk or any of the several hundred
odd occupations available in state
and local governments.
You would think in view Of his
expressed desire for equal rep
resentation' that MIR. Gibson
would deliver a long and heat
ed speech about that, wouldn't
you?
Mr.. Gibson in his insidiouS har-
angue against the FEPC in addi-
ton to representation takes issue
with the fact that many Negro en-
ployes of the agency draw higher
salaries than do some of the white.
He is utterly Mortified that in At
lanta, a Negro is paid $500 year
more than a white man, ignoring
the difference in classification and
contending that the "only distinc-
tom is color.
STOP AND THINK
All of which would lead you to
think that Mr.. Gibson Is sincerely
in favor of equal pay for equal work
regardless of the color of the
workers skin. And then you stop
and think. When have you ever
heard Mr.. Gibson take issue with
the school boards, say, in his own
district?
There the lowest paid white
teacher 0ftimes with far less
qualifications that many of her
fellow teachers who chance to
be colored, receives $50
month. The highest pay
cOI0retI teacher can possibly
receive is SIS a month. BY the

ONE OF GEORGIA'S several
gifts to the white supremacy
clique so vociferous on the national
scene these days, John Gibson by

handed and craftily vicious slap at
the Presidents Committee on Fair
Employment Practices, long ia
vorite target of the reactionaries.

OTHER JIM GROW
The report also calls attention to
other forms of discrimination
apart from pay rates between races.
There are great differences in
leave periods.
Usually white soldiers get 80
days; colored "a days and black 10
days.
Military status too, Is also def
nitely defined between races. Pos

racial stop. Africans can rise only
