1t is something under the sun when the Governor of
State in the Deep South stands and loudly asserts that
poll tax laws must be repealed,
However, no surprised when Governor Ellis
Arna of Georgia told Philadelphia audience last week that
all poll laws should be repealed and the voting franchise
extended equally throughout the country.
If the States would not assume this responsibility he
said they could have of complaint II the Federal
Government stepped into the picture
He the belief that the right to vote the founda
democracy and pointed with pride to the fact that his
State had recently abogated the centuryold poll tax
prerequisite to voting.
Governor Arnall is intelligent progressive and fear
less public official whose example could well be followed by
several other Southern land NorthernO Governors
1t takes political courage for the Chief Executive of a
State of the Deep South recently rid of Governor like
Gene Tamadge champion the extension of suffrage to 49,
yearolds and to fight the vicious poll tax system especially
time when the forces of reaction in his State revvng
the Ku Klux Kan to help fight back the forces of public
improvement.
Governor Arnall represents the New South the white
South and the coored Southwhich determined to break
with evil tradition and build South freer from bgotry
and prescription.
He abreast of the trend and leading instead of follow
ing.
He deserves the undivided support of all those who love
the South and understand what wonderful place be
