Helena - Hot Springs young
prosecutor and leader Sidney Nc
M15h of an anti-machine rule

McMath explained: l am not low
rating our Negro population. But
the ignorance among our Negroes
is a fertile ground for the Commun-
lists. The educated man knows
better. Therefore, we must educa-
lie our Negroes just as we must
educate every white boy and girl
in this state.
McMath brought out that we
have fought the war but we still
have the same problems we had
before we went to war. 1t is true,
he aid that we no longer have
Hitler, but we now have here in
thi country.
He stated to make hi remarks
regarding the education of the Ne

can print that because l think the
people of the state should know
the situation
"The Negro right now is looking
for leadership he said. ''He may
get it in the form of a Com
munist. He may get it in the form

These organizations and the

This concept is that the Federal
Government should pay for such aid

Norway, Sweden and Denmark
were taking part in the conference
but some observers said they were
fearful that in doing SO they would

than an economic interest. Last
night Scandinavian source in
Paris, while discounting this some
what, declared they would be un-

The secretariat would be headed

there is any possibility of getting
the Scandinavian countries to

This does not mean that the three
