COLUMBIA, B. C. - Another
legal fight to win the vote for
Southern Negroes has be e n
launched in South Carolina, first
State to figure a way to circumvent
the Supreme Court ruling that
Negroes may vote in primaries.
In Georgia, most recent state to
enact such legislation, Negro lead
ers voted to raise a $4,000 fund
to finance a legal battle against
the "unregulated" primary.
Shortly after the Supreme Court
ruling, the South Carolina Legisla-
ture repealed all State laws govern
ing primaries in order to establish
the Democratic primary as strictly
a party affair to be governed by
party rules.
AS a result, Negroes barred from
the Democratic primary have been
without a voice in the election of
any officials. Since 1875, all nomi-
nees in the Democratic primary
have been elected in South Caro-
lima.
The National Assn. for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People spon-
sored the new action, suing in Fed
eral Court at Columbia for an order
declaring that South Cardinals &C
tion in creating a white primary
was unconstitutional.
The suit, directed against cleo
ton officials and Democratic Party
executives, charges that there has
been no substantial change in the
conduct of primary election since
the repeal of the primary statutes,
holding that the Democratic Party,
"in furnishing ballots, performs an
essential Governmental function
within the jurisdiction of the U. S,
Constitutional provisions of vot-

/ Stassen, candidate for the Republi.
can nomination for the presidency
said at a news conference today thai
| his party has good chance TO name

It depends, Mr.. Stassen told Brit
ish journalists, on the manner Ii
which Republican leaders now dom

sponsibilities In the immediate ft-
| ture.
Asked. about his own chapces In

He said that on his return to the
United States next week he will con-
fer with Republican leaders and
that on the basis of recent develop
tments at home and his own obser-
Fvatiorls of his two months tour oi
Is European nations he will formu-
late his views on foreign policy.
He adhered to his determination
not to discuss foreign relations while
he is outside the United States, but
indicated that in his view the trou-
bles of the world are largely eco
nomic
Mr.. Stassen said he regarded the
recent municipal election in Chicago
as being significant in the light
| 1t threw on the relations OF the
Democratic and Republican Parties
in one city" But the Chicago vote
/ did not necessarily cast an accurate
light on the national political situ-
alton, he added.
Says Stain Appeared Alert.
1t is too soon, he continued. tc
reach any conclusion as to whether
Republican leadership in Congress
has measured up to its resporsibili-
ties. He avoided comment on lone
world" PHILOSOPHERS or on the pub
! lie discussions of Henry A. Wallace
in Europe.
Mr.. Stassen would not be drawn
into a discussion OF Russia beyond
saying that Prime Minister Stain
whom he visited in the Kremlin
appeared alert and capable and
that, within the reasonable sched-
ule we had laid down we were free
to move about as we wished,

Christian Viewof Atom
Is Given in Film Here

More than $500 persons last night
attended the world premiere of 1.-THE
Way of Peace" a movie depicting
the Christian answer to threats of
world destruction through atomic
power.
The picture, whose story extends
from creation to the predicted an
Inhalation of mankind by atomic
force, was made with puppets and
has Lew Ayres as narrator. It was
shown twice at Constitution Hall
last night.
Senator johnson. Democrat, of
Colorado told the audience of the
frightening potentialities of atomic
energy as was told to him and other
congressman by scientists during
the hearings on atomic control.
Most scientists are not professed
Christians" Senator johnson said.
but they admit Christians have the
right way-for world salvation"
DR.. Frederick E. Reissig, executive
secretary of the Federation of
Churches, said: I'VE are here to-
night to say that we dare not have
another global war The Christian
believes that peace is possible and
therefore Is faced in the direction
OF peace with his back toward mod
ern warfare as a means of seeking
to settle international problems.
The picture will be shown at II

A squad of 10 men from this spe-
cial platoon was interviewed in the

ions were In sharp contrast to those
Of the other recruits, most of whom
were enthusiastic about their train
ing. Asked how many would like to
be transferred to a different bat
talon, nine men raised their hands.
Voice Resentment.
Their complaints may be sum-
married as follows:
/. They resent the implications
of their own segregation, and feel
their battalion Is not "the real
Army" but a sort of military school.
THE other guys in camp call us the
Boy Scouts"
Q. They think the increased en-
phasis on manual labor in their
platoon is just an excuse to make
them into labor detachment.
"They laugh at us because we
haven't fired rifle yet"
8. They know they are In pla-
toon which is regarded as inferior
and consequently they have no
pride in their unit. In athletic con-
tests, their platoon officer reports,
they do fairly well until they get
a little behind-then everybody
quits.
The civilian psychiatric consult
ants who accompanied Col. John M.
Calwell, jr., chief of the neuropsy-
chiatry consultants' division in the
Surgeon Generals Office came away
impressed with most aspects of the
training program. They urged the
establishment of consultation
service unit, composed of psychi-
artist, clinical psychologist and q
trained social worker, with appro-
pirate enlisted aides, so that youths
with adjustment or domestic prob
lens could obtain competent pro-
fessional guidance.
Superior Training Developed.
From personal observation of the

possible to draw the following con-
illusions:

discipline, the maintenance of the
teen-ager's dignity, the successful
campaign against immortality. drink
ing, gambling and profanity. and
