Many Travellers Mexico Bound

Travellers and vacariOniSts going to Mexico
at the rate of 10000 month during what is regarded
there the off season of the year. Except for Can
ada, other country be reached by all four ways
of modern transportation Steady streams of visitors
arriving daily by air, rail, water and motor car
In poll of American Automobile Association
clubs 25 per cent of the members responding favored
Mexico first choice for pleasure travel trips Cars
from many states are rolling through Arizona down
to the splendid Pan-American Highway to Mexico
City and going even farther SOUTH
Reason for the exodus to Mexico is simple. Re-
sorts in the United States are crowded. Travelling
food and housing conditions in Europe are so bad
those who previously went overseas are no longer
intrigued by the fancy folders suggesting quaint
places and unusual recreations which can be had
closer home.
American tourist business in Mexico is no small
change affair. It has become the nations fourth
greatest industry. Even during wartime tourists
and others from the Colossus of the North left $751;
100000 south of the border single year. To share
in this tourist business Mexicans everywhere, in all
walks of life, are learning English Americans who
forego the travel charm and interest that comes from
speaking Spanish, find that English will suffice
Americans in Mexico must be guard against
sanitation shortcomings. Well-cooked foods in the
better hotels and restaurants are deiciously pre-
pared and may be safely eaten but the quaint little
restaurant on charming side street may be dysen-
terry factory for unadjusted stomachs (Arizona

Charges Plot To
Cut Cotton Wage

Memphis, Tenn.-H. l.. Nit
chell, president of the National
Farm Labor Union in Memphis
today charged that plantation
owners in the Mississippi delta
were plotting to use the power of
the U. S. Government to impose a
cut in cotton choppers wages
this spring, Mitchell sent let
ter to Chester Bowles, director
of Economic Sterilization in
Washington, protesting that plans
to cut the wages Of cotton chop
pers are unfair, unnecessary, and
illegal. He said that the USDA
Bureau of Agricultural Econom-
les report of June, l945, showed
that wages paid farm labor in
Mississippi were $3.50 per day.
Mitchell also stated: 1--WE do
not believe that you, the respon-
sible official of the United States
Government, will be party to a
plot to impose lower standards
of living on the lowest paid work.
orc ~, tho country
The farm labor leader told
Bowles that the ceiling imposed
on cotton pickers in Mississippi
and Arkansas last fall had result
ed in pickers refusing to work
and that an estimated 40 per cent
of the cotton crop is still in the
fields.
Mitchell charged that the pro-
cedure used to set wage ceilings
by the Department of Agricul-
ture, violates every tradition oi
American democracy as only
cotton producers are permitted tC
vote and farm laborers, who's,
wages are being cut, have ne
right to take part in the refer
endums.

homa constituency. Attorneys j.

c. Wade are the lawyers in the
case with Rev. v. M. Townsend,

OPP George W. Baber, A. M, d. D.,
of Detroit, Michigan, who has

Discrimination
Must Be Abolished

Wilson, N. c. - Segregation
and discrimination must be abol-
ished not because colored peo-
pie desire it. but because the
very foundations of the demo-
cracy are endangered by its exis-
tence," Mrs. Thomasina Walker
johnson of Washington, D. c.,
told radio audience here Sun
day evening.
Speaking on the Darden Sun
day Evening Hour over Station
VICTIM under the auspices of the
Gamma Beta Omega Chapter of
the AKA Sorority, Mrs. johnson,
legislative representative, d e.
clared that it was time our social
engineering was brought up to
par with all other phases of our
national life.
"The fact that in many states
and cities of our beloved United
States there are laws which set
apart large segments of the popu-
lation on the basis of color alone
is a traversty on our constitu-
ton, not in keeping with the
professed purposes for which the
war was fought, nor CONSTANT
with the principles of Demo-
cracy," she said.
I'VE believe that all form of
discrimination on the basis of
color, race, creed or religion
must be eliminated if our demo-
cratic way of life is to survive.
We cannot exist for long nor
peaceably if groups are set
apart, excluded, given less of
everything, always the worst of
everything and made to feel in
ferior. The Negro asks only for
what everyone else already has
complete freedom and complete
equality to which there are nc
ifs or butts He asks no more
He will be satisfied with no less.

Georgia Vote Case Argued
In Circuit Court Of Appeals

New Orleans = Argument in
the Chapman V. King case, in
volving the right of Rev. Pri
mus E. King to vote in the Demo-
cratic primary in Georgia, was
heard February 10 by the Uni
ted States Circuit Court of APP
peals for the Fifth Circuit, sit
ting here.
The case was appealed by the
Georgia Democratic Executive
Committee from a ruling of a
Federal judge in Macon, Ga,
which held that qualified Negro
electors may not be barred
from the primary election in
Muscogee county, Ga.
A brief as friend of the court
was filed in Rev Kings behalf
by lawyers for the NAACP,
headed by Thurgood Marshall
chief counsel. The brief de-
clared:
THE right of an American cit
zen to participate in the cleo
toral processes is the most fun
damental right inherent in citi-
zenship. Discrimination because
OF sex or race in the exercise
of this right is prohibited by our
Constitution. The 18th, l4th
and 18th Amendments to the
United States Constitution and
the Federal Civil Rights Statutes
were enacted for the purpose
of prohibiting discrimination be-
cause of race or color"
The conclusion of the brief
pointed out: Race has no place
in the governmental affairs of
our nation. Our Constitution
prohibits racial discrimination
in governmental functions. Our
nation was the guiding spirit
in the United Nations Conference
in San Francisco which adopted
charter providing the purpose
of the United Nations shall be:
To achieve international CO.
operation in solving internation-
al problems of an economic.
social, cultural or humanitarian
character, and in promoting and
encouraging respect for human
rights and for fundamental free
doms for all without distinction
as to race, sex, language or re-
hgion d.
I'VE cannot be less scrupu-
lous,' said the NAACP, in Civ
ing our own people the full
rights of citizenship under our
constitutional democracy than
