more than we can pay. There

OF jim CROW

~ SAN0W
On April Z, last. Governor
Dewey signed a bill outlaw
ing race and religious discrim-
inaiion in the admission Of
students to institutions OF
higher learning in New York
state.
This bill empowers the State
Educational Commissioner and
the State Board of Regents
TO compel the abatement OF
such practices, first by per-
suasion. Cancellation, or medi-
alton, then by the issuance OF
"cess and disist" orders, and
finally by court order. re-
viewable by the Appellate Di-
vision.
The record Of Governor
Dewey on civil rights is par
ticularly significant because
the hope Of carrying some
southern states apparently
motivated the platform max
ers in writing a vague plank
on civil rights.
The civil rights plank is as
follows:
"Lynching or any other
form OF mob violence any,
where is q disgrace to any
civilized state, and we favor
the prompt enactment OF leg
islation 10 end this infamy.
lone Of the basic princi-
Piles Of this Republic is the
equality OF all individuals in
their right TO life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness. This
principle is enunciated in the
Declaration of Independence
and embodied in the Consti-
tuition Of the United States: il
was indicated on the field OF
battle and became the cor
nerstone Of this Republic.
This right Of equal opportun-
ity 10 work and TO advance

cause of race. religion. color,
or country or origin. We favor
the enactment and Just en-
forcement OF such Federal

sary 10 maintain this right at
all times in every part Of this
Republic.
We favor the abolition of
the poll tax as q requisite

idea Of racial segregation In
the armed services of the

The civil rights subcommit-
tee OF the resolutions COM
mittee reported a somewhat
stronger plank, which. al
though also vague and in
definite. specifically called for
the creation Of a Fair Employ
ment Practice Commission.

or for Governor Dewey. or, II
they choose. for Henry Wal
lace. But in voting for any
one of them the South will
be on notice that each Of them
believes that civil rights in

strengthened.
The 46-year old New York

the convention in his accept

Like President Truman.
who has advocated q l0-point
civil rights legislative pro-
gram, Governor Dewey has a
record in the field OF civil
rights which should give
meaning to the weak civil
rights plank Of the 1913 Re
publican platform.
Shortly after he became
Governor OF New York In

that study came the Ives
