MRS. Wendell |. WILkIE
URGES SUPPORT OF
COLLEGE FUND DRIVE

NEW YORK-Mrs. Wendell l..
Wilkie told a radio audience that it
is the responsibility of Negro col
leges to turn out the leaders Of to-
morrow's generation" She spoke
on the Headline Edition" program
featured nightly by the American
Broadcasting System, in her capac-
ity as a sponsor of the United
Negro College Fund third annual
appeal.
There are many reasons why
men and women of goodwill desire
to support the work of these 33 col
leges," Mrs. Wilkie said. Zone of
these might be to improve the liv-
ing standards of one-tenth of the
population and thereby improve liv-
ing standards of all of us.
"Still another might be our desire
to see the hopedfor 'One World
come true. Only an America which
gives all it's children the same op-
portunities for education can pos
sibly hope to lead other nations to
new way of living and of peace"
She added that if every family
with a son or daughter now attend
ing college gave two dollars, 1--WE
would have the necessary $780,

ARNALL Tells GEORGIA TO
ACCEPT NEGRO
VOTING RIGHTS

ATLANTA, May 8 (ANP)-
Acceptance of Negro voting rights
in Georgia primaries was urged
here by Gov. Ellis Arnall before the
state Democratic executive commit
tee. He denounced those who are
unwilling to uphold the law as un-
worthy of citizenship and pleaded
for honesty.
There is no poll tax this year,
Arnall pointed out, and there are
more young voters registered than
ever before. There are more women
registered than men. Thousands of
Negro voters have registered to
vote in the primary, which will be
held on July II, since federal court
rulings upheld their right to ballot
in Democratic primaries.
''It is the first election in the his

people can really speak out and
have voice in the government of
Georgia" Arnall remarked.
The governor, prevented by the
state constitution from seeking a
second consecutive term, declined
to announced what candidate he
will support. Former Gov. Eugene
Talmadge, race batting guberna-
torial candidate, has promised
to maintain white supremacy if
elected.
Arnall "well knows Henry Wal
lace is at the head of a movement of
the PAC political Action Commit
tee) to take control of the voting
strength of the south through the
Negroes and to pass the FEPC," "
Talmadge commented on the COVER
nor's statement before the execu-
tive committee.

FEPC A gency To End June 3Ot,
WASHINGTON, Mays (ANP)

WASHINGTON, Mays (ANP)
a request Of $4,000 to
complete liquidation. Of the Fair
Employment Practices committee,
Malcolm Ross, chairman, was
forced to close up, almost two
months before the official ending
scheduled for June 80.
Ross and the remaining "a FEPC
employees have been placed on in
definite furlough without any pay,
he revealed. There is only a little
money left and that must be used to
pay for a final report to President
Truman. This report, he added, will
be made whatever happens" to
acquaint the President with the
prospects for employment of minor
ity groups.
The action was taken after house
and senate conferees Friday night
failed to approve the $4,000
liquidation item as part of the Sec
ond deficiency appropriation bill.
Ross said the refusal of congress
to grant liquidation funds to fed
eral agency was unique.
Closing of the agency is viewed
as another victory for the reaction
ary Republican-Southern Democrat
clique which is in virtual control Of
congress. When the measure was
brought up in the senate, southern
senators were allowed to filibuster
the measure to death. No vote was
permitted on cloture, which would
have limited debate, until the Dixie
solons were assured cloture would
fail.
Although some senators went on
record as being in favor of a per-
manent FEPC, they virtually de-
serted the bill and left Sen. Chavez
of New Mexico virtually alone to
fight a losing battle against East
land, Bilbo and the others. Many of
them also refused to vote for clo-
ture.
The measure has not come up in
the house because of maneuvering
on the rules committee and the fail
ure of representatives to sign the
petition which would discharge the
bill from this committee and bring
it to the floor. At least so more
names are needed.
The National Council for a Per
manent FEPC had sent kilograms
to local offices throughout the ma
tion urging them to loudly protest
the closing of the agency and tc
move every effort to obtain house
support of the pending bill. FEPC
supporters were urged by Anna
Hedgeman, executive secretary, tG
deluge President Truman, house
and senate leaders and nationa
committeeman Of both parties with
requests for passage of a perman
ent FEPC law.
