GEORGIA LEGISLATION TO
BAR NEGRO BALLOTS

ATLANTA, Oct. "a (ANP)-
The January session of the Georgia
legislature probably will adopt leg
islation designed to nullify fed
eral court ruling that gave Negroes
the right to vote in Democratic pri-
maries, capital observers predicted
here.
Legislative sources were pictures
as feeling certain the Georgia gen
eral assembly would follow the
precedent set by the South Carolina
legislature in 1914 to assure con-
tinuation of white supremacy"
The South Carolina body divorced
democratic primaries from state
election machinery by striking from
the statutes all references to pri-
maries.
Shortly after the ruling by Judge
T. Hoyt Davis in the Primus E.
King suit, invalidating the Georgia
white primary, Gov. Ellis Arnall
lifted the eyebrows of Georgia Ne
groes and white liberals who had
placed him among their kind when
he called upon the forces of reac-
tion to. keep the ballot out of the
hands of Negroes. He expressed a
desire and hope that the decision
would be appealed by the Muscogee
County Democratic committee, de-
PENDANTS in the suit brought by the
Columbus Baptists minister. Gov.
Arnall said the state Democratic
executive committee had been work
ing with the Muscogee County
committee in contesting the King
suit and would continue to do so.
Some observers believed Gov.

Arnall was playing the reactionary
forces of former Gov. Eugene Tai
madge, race batter extraordinary,
who may seek comeback in the
next state election.
Georgia politics at the capitol,
however, foresaw little hope that
any appeal to the supreme court on
the part of the defendant losers
would meet any favorable reaction
in Washington, since the nations
highest court on two previous de-
cisions already has ruled that Ne
groes must be allowed all voting
privileges, Democratic party rules
and practices notwithstanding
The attempt to remove all stat
utes referring to primaries from
the Georgia statute books may MEET
opposition from other than Ne
groes. When the newly adopted
constitution was being framed by
legislature-appointed body, Geor-
gia white woman voters in at least
two leagues opposed removal of
laws referring to primaries on the
grounds that it could contribute to
corrupt government and political
practices.

hits the midwest and even has
echoes in the east. In Gary, the
steel center, white students sudden
ly refuse to go to school with their
colored brothers demanding sep
arate schools. In Chicago, the same
thing occurs at several high schools.
In Chicago, too, property owners
association advocating restrictive
covenants and crying the VOLTS cry
of rape girds for gestapo war
against Negro citizens moving into
a certain area.
These are not isolated happen
ings as some would have us believe.
These incidents are plotted and
planned and there is some signifi-
canoe to the fact that during the
time of these occurrences Gerald
L. K. Smith, the arch fascist, was
having meetings of his profascist
group in and around the midwest.
Certainly these things are being
done to provoke racial strife and if
you want the key to the whole
thing just find the answer to two
questions:
Who in America would benefit
most from racial strife during this
period of wavering reconversion!
Who is against full employment ?
Who wants to smash the labor un-
ions? Who wants to divide and rule
at the time when unity of all peo-
pie, black and white, is the only
thing that will guarantee their
gaining the things for which white
and black Americans have so re-
Gently died? Who wants to smash
the unity of the United Nations ?
Who prophesies that the third
world war will be with the Soviet
Union?
The answers TO these question are
the key and the answer is one and
the same. They are the reactionary
big business interests on national
and international scale. They are
using Hitler's weapon of "divide
and rule" The steel magnates are
using it in Gary where the school
strikes were fermented. What bet
ter way is there to smash the steel
union and its demands for higher
wages than having the children Of
Negro and white workers fighting
each other?

WHATS BACK OF

0'Conor Hears Prejudice
Charged in Murphy Case
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, June 21.-Gov.
O'Conor yesterday was told at a
final hearing of pleas for clemency
in the case of Patrick Murphy, SEN
fenced by the Prince Georges
County Circuit Court to be hanged
for criminal assault, that a great
deal of local feeling" against the
defendant had entered into the
sentence.
H. Webster Tall, defense attorney,
contended the sentence was en-
tirely too severe since there was
evidence of inducement" on the
part of the victim in the case for
which he was convicted as well as
in an alleged second offense. The
Governor held his decision in
allegiance.
Declaring the death penalty for
criminal assault seldom had been
invoked in Maryland in view of
circumstances attending the cases
which are Ito subtle for men to
understand" Mr.. Tall said that
even before Murphy was convicted,
there was a general feeling that he
would be hanged.
az He said he had been informed
thae after that case, in 1874 there
! were several other cases of GRIM
inal assault that came before the
same term Of court but prosecutors
were unable to obtain convictions
ostensibly because of the severity
of the penalty applied in Murphy's
case

Items of historical interest which
Mr.. Thomas has cleaned from the

They are Peter Carroll, Samuel Cos

Another record is that of Samuel

my impression of Czaky Hun

Ribbentrop Regarded
Russia as Weak

May AT arrive in Berlin. There
are great demonstrations, clearly
spontaneous. My first discussion
is with Ribbentrop. Nothing has
changed that was decided in Milan
He repeats Germany's interest and
desire for a long period Of peace,
at least three years. He insists on
the Importance of binding Japan
to our system. He maintains that
Russia is too weak to give much
assistance to the Western democra-
cies even If she should take her
stand with them. ."
I'VE repeat our discussion, more
or less, with the Fuehrer. He says
he is we'll satisfied with the pact,
and affirms that Mediterranean
policy will be directed by Italy. He
is interested in Albania, and is en-
thusiastic about our program to
make it stronghold that will DOM
mate the Balkans completely.
II found Hitler very well, quite
serene, less aggressive, somewhat
aged. His eyes are more deeply
wrinkled. He sleeps very little.
Constantly less. He spends a great
part of the night surrounded by
friends and collaborators.
Frau Goebbels, who is a constant
member of these gatherings and who
feels quite honored, was describing
them but was unable to conceal q
feeling of boredom. 1t is always
Hitler who speaks. So it is to be a
fuehrer, having always to repeat and
bore the listeners.
