Judge j. Waits Warnings Famous Deei-
sion For Negro Right To Vote In South
Carolina Democratic Primary Upheld
By u. S. Appeals Court
Negro leaders EIated AS Question Is
Settled In Time For 1913 Elections
Further Appeal To S. Supreme
Court Dougted

Columbia, S. c. Jan 5, (Spec-
iaD- The U. S. Fourth Circuit
of Appeals has upheld the decis-
ion of U. S. District Court Judge
]. Waties Waring of Charleston
that Negroes are entitled to vote
in South Carolian Democratic
primaries, attorney Harold r.
Boulware was notified last Tues
day.
Mr.. Boulware, associated with
Thurgood Marshall as N. A. A. G.
P. counsel for George E. Gilmore
in the case, received the following
telegram Tuesday from Claude M.
Dean Clerk of Circuit Court at
Richmond:
Rice ct al versus Edmond ar
firmed. Copy opinion by mail soon
as preinted.
Democrats May Appeal
Speculation was rife late Tues
day as to whether or not South
Carolina Democrats would move
with the case to the US Supreme
Court. An executive committee
session of the Democratic Party
had voted to take the case to
the nations highest court follow
ing the Waring ruling, returned
on July II. However, there was
then a strong sentiment against
appealing even to the Circuit
Court.
It appears doubtful, however,
that the Supreme Court would re-
verse the decision of Judge War
ing. The last case on the primary
taken before that body was ig-
nored (King VS. Chapman on the
grounds that the Supreme Court
had already ruled on the question
of primaries.
Whether an appeal is made or
not it is expected that the en-
tire issue will be settled we'll
in time to enable Negroes to vote
in primaries in 194S.
Leaders Elated

Richland Democratic officials fol-

August of 1916 landed the pre-

amendment. We would rather see
the construction of a museum in
Dayton than lakewood, for rather
obvious reasons. lakewood being
what it is to the common people,

We should not be surprised if the
authorities there took measures to
keep certain "undesirables" either
out of the museu completely, or
at a minimum. We are sure Or

friend and school mate of Paul
