Supreme Court
Passes Law by
Gov. Ta|madge
Proposed To Halt
Bloc Voting EviI'

ATLANTA, Ga.-The Negro
vote was restricted here last
Friday when the State SUI
preme Court upheld a law
which was designed to halt
,he evils of bloc voting"
Introduced by Gow Herman
Talmadge In the 19l9 session
Of the legislature, the law calls
for complete re-registration Of
state voters.
Talmadge stated that il pro-
posed 10 halt the "evil Of bloc
voting" He explained that this
meant the lining-up Of Negroes
en- masse 10 vote in controlled
bloc
The measure did away with
Georgias 1000. 900 registered vot-
ers and ordered complete new
registration under tougher quail
fcations. The Negro voters Nave
been estimated at 10000.
II is so worderd that race OF
discrimination is not mentioned,
although the law is aimed chiefly
at race voting.
Opponents charged the act gave
registrars power TO censor voting
rights OF Georgians and provided
for discrimination against Neg
roes. No specific cases were cited,
The court in a unanimous rul-
ing. declared:
The mere possibility that the
Bosrdof Registrars may act arbi-
trari'y or recklessly in administ-
ering the law and thereby violate
constitutional rights, is not q
ground for declaring the act as
a whole unconstitutional.
