PRIMARY ISSUE FOR MINORITY Is
civil RIGHTS. A. (JACK) JOHNSON
BY J. A. (Jaok) JOHNSON

The paramount issue of the
coming election for minority
groups is civil rights. While 1t
does not dwarf such issues as
lower living costs. housing. social
security and other necessary re-
forms because minority groups
can stand these things in com
mon with other people. We are
tired. plenty tired of segregation,
discrimination and denial of our
plain American rights. In this con-
nection we submit the record of
President Harry s. Truman which
Is a commendable one.
Soon after Mr.. Truman became
President of the United States he
began his crusade for equal op-
.portunity by openly requesting
that the rules committee report
out the FEPC bill. His January
Bird, 1916 message to Congress
contained a request for the enact
ment of FEPC legislation. He
thereby become the first President
to make such a request officially
of the Congress OF the United.
States. Mr.. Truman made history
when he made the the precedent
breaking appointment of William
H. HASTE as Governor of the
Virgin Islands and Irving G. Mol
lison as Judge of the United States
Custom Court.
He appointed a special commit
tee of distinguished Americans
and charged them with the re-
sponsibility or reviewing the en-
tire status of minority groups in

am personally convinced that
Gov. Thomas e. Dewey and Gov.
Earl Warren represent that high
degree of craftsmanship now so
necessary in our nations history.
Along with the entire Republican
historic life, the Constitution and
free people without reservation
is manifested in the lives of both
Gov. Dewey and Gov. Warren.
And I believe that their election
will bring more confidence and
unity of purpose to the entire ma
ton and world if they are elected
to head the nation in the Novem-
Der election.
The state of Washington has
the finest type of citizenship in
the persons of former Gov. Arthur
B. Langlie and former Speaker of
the House Rep. Herbert H. Ham
blen, as Governor and Lieutenant
Governor, that could have been
named for the state and taking in
all other state officials the people
have on the Republican ticket,
men and women, 1 believe will,
if elected, do a good job. My
heartiest support goes to them.
