VOTERS LEAGUE PLANS
REGISTRATION PROGRAM
FOR TOTAL VOTE


Stressing the Importance of vot-
ing in the November election, the
Non-Partisan Voters League in an
effort to make every Negro citizen
eligible to vote, has planned an
ambitious program to get total
registration.
Marion A. Carter, general chair
man Of the registration drive,
pointed out that too many Negroes
are not eligible to vote because they
are not registered. 'In order to get
out total vote," he said, "it is
first necessary to have total regis
tration."
The plans worked out by the
Non PARTISAN Voters League in
conjunction with the Frontiers
club, which will be co-sponsors of
the registration drive, call for a
house-to-house canvas by volunteer
workers of both organizations, and
any others who are interested in
getting out a 100 per cent Negro
vote.
Three of the four committees in
charge of the program will be
headed by women, because, as
the chairman pointed out, the
greatest amount of voting will be
done by them in the election.
"Women today" Carter said,
"are taking an increasingly active
part in governmental affairs, and
in many cases, are more cognizant
of the issues than a great many
men,"
Appointed to Craftsmanship of
these committees are Mrs. G.. j.
Francis, workers; Miss Betsy How
ard, publicity; and Miss Eleanor
Jarman, program.
The registration committee will
be headed by Carter, who is also
general chairman Of the drive; and
he will be assisted by J. B. Barlow,
C. w. Evans, Mrs. C. ]. Francis,
Howard Lorritts, James C. Martin,
and Clarence Thomas.

can-born music still is in its in- fancy.
 Until we can present the variety of tone color found i na symphonic presentation, it won't be of age. This won't be for long time = perhaps 100 years" Shaw explained that modern music fans must be educated to its developments. He recalled one growing pain when he added strings to his orchestra in 1898. His followers objected at first, he said, because they associated the fiddle with 'high-tone" music, but soon recognized the resultant improve ment in his music.
 The fact that modern music fans readily register disapproval when they don't like something is healthy, Shaw believes, and mot so hypo- critical"

"3O Seconds Over Tokyo M-G.M Classic Now at

done much to prevent breaks in older morale.
 Star-studded to capacity with enough entertainment names to make ten motion pictures, the musicals cast includes Jack Benny, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, John Garfield, Jack Carson, Jane Wy man, Alexis Smith, Joyce Reynolds, Joan Leslie, Robert Hutton, Jimmy Dorsey and his band; Dennis Mor- gan, Carmen Cavallaro and his or- chestra, and Joe E.

He declared that their down-the- nose attitude toward modern music is superciliolis, stupid and infuriat- ing, that dispen CTS of. classical music are "a little bit out of tune with the times'' and that the form of the music itself is outdated.
 Shaw, who has just organized 6 new 17-piece orchestra, spoke earn estly, seriously. He made it clear that he knows classical music and loves much of it, although he doesn't always like its form nor it's treatment, and that he regards Beethoven as one of the greatest of all composers.
 But he said the attitude of the longhair musicians and music lovers" toward modern music, has an overtone of the ridiculous about it."
 ''They don't realize" he went on, "that several modern musicians who know what they're doing are making great advances in Amer ican music right under their noses. This music is a young, healthy thing. It has vitality. It couldn't be anything but American" That swing or jazz or whatever you choose to call 1t is American was Shaw's chief talking point. He deplored the "slavish devotion to European music" and charged that symphonic concerts are sup- ported largely by persons who ate tend just because it's the thing to do."
 The orchestra leader admitted that for a time before he entered the navy, where he served for two years, he lest faith in what he was doing in music.
 But that faith was renewed, he said, when he played for American servicemen on Guadalcanal. Many of them wept during his concerts, he said-"to them 1t was America" :"
 And they were concerts, not dances" he added, because there was no one there to dance with but fuzzy -wuzzieS."
