ton the average Alabaman"
was the only free citizen in
these United States that didn't
have a right to express a choice
at the polls. The States Fighters
saw to that. They barred all
names from the ballot with the
exception of the States Rights
candidates and, of course, the
Republican candidates which
mean nothing in Alabama.
Seems like some token of APP
probation should be made to
Gessner McCorvey and the
group of States Rights leaders
who denied Alabamans any
choice at the ballot box.
While on the subject, we
would like to comment on the
fact that of late we have read
several editorial criticisms of
President Truman for a So
called "snub" of J. Strom Thur
mond, governor of South Caro-
lima and erstwhile States Rights
candidate for president. Thur
mond played all the stops in
calling both Truman and Dewey
everything in the book during
the presidential campaign. In
veetive of the more juvenile
type was his sole campaign am
munition. When the campaign
was over, however, and Tru-
man was elected he had the gall
to go to Washington and fight
his way into the inaugural pa
rade. Frankly, snubbing (if he
was snubbed) was too good for
a political opportunist of this
sort. His act stemmed from the
fact that he wants to run for
u. S. Senator against Olin John
son his next time out, and he
wasn't losing any chance to
keep in the limelight. It's this
type of tactics that made US fall
out with the States Rights
movement in the first place.

"Pork Barrel Polka"

A news dispatch tells us that members of the House
Public Works Committee in particular, and Congress in
general, would like to join in the singing of an old time
tune, pork barrel polka" whose lu1ling notes have, to
some extent, been missing around Washington during the
past 10 years.
A bill has been introduced providing for $4,000 900 to
be spent for sites and plans for new public buildings, most
Iy ~postoffices.
There is no question but what new federal buildings
are needed in many sections of the country. Government
has grown during the past 10 years, when the last actual
federal building was done from a 1899 list, and in many
instances quarters are woefully inadequate.
But Congressman, according to the news dispatch, are
talking about providing a new postoffice for each of the
nations ABS Congressional districts. and Commissioner
Reynolds of the Public Building Administration, has been
directed to make up a list of projects, so Congressman
won't be put on the spot in the selection of the location of
the proposed new buildings.
Such a program is, of course, pure and unadulterated
pork barrel' and the most ardent hackers will be those
Congressman who scream -loudest about government
economy. They, of course, mean economy for the other
fellow but liberal appropriations for pet projects that are
measured in votes by the Congressman's constituents.

We so rarely agree with the views of the editor of the
jackson Daily News that a recent editorial in that news
paper set us to wondering just what has happened up that
way. The measured reasoning on a subject on which said
editor In the past was prone to throw all reasoning to the
winds is, to say the least, startling.
In any event, we reprint the editorial herewith, as a
rational summing up of a condition on which little sane
thought has been spent.
Instead of planning for Importation of European La
Dor 1t would be much better for our industrial and agri-
cultural leaders to put on their thinking caps and see if
better living and working conditions cannot be provided
for negro labor being tempted to move to industrial GEN.
tiers in Northern and Eastern states.
Meaning specifically that our negroes, who are more
efficient in nearly all respects than any displaced persons
we are likely to get from Europe, should be provided with
better schools, homes and living conditions.
we must frankly admit among ourselves that we are
not giving the negro a square deal in these and some other
respects.
1--WE know, as a matter of cold truth, that negroes gen.
orally speaking, are better adapted to work on our farms
and in our factories than are the homeless and poverty
stricken persons in Europe who cannot speak our langu-
age and do not understand our ways.
Lets be perfectly fair about. it.
Our negroes have been migrating to Northern indus
trial centers in order to better their own conditions
something all human beings have a right to do.
"If we are losing this class of wealth producers-and
the negroes really are our chief wealth producers-it is
our own fault. We should have been according them bet
ter treatment in the way of better wages, better schools
and better living conditions.
at is not too late to stop the migratory movement.
Negroes, generally speaking, prefer to live in the
South. They like our genial and kindly climate. They get
along more amieably with the Southern white people
than they do with Northern folks.
Lets be truthful among ourselves.
I'VE need our negro citizens.
I'VE should do all within our power that is reasonable
to keep them among us.
I'VE should not seek to keep them subservient.
"We should give them a fair chance TO better condi-
tions for themselves and their families"
Importation of European displaced persons, as humane
and laudable as the program itself might be, is not the
answer to either our labor or our racial problem. In the
first place, ali wishful thinking of Delta plantation opera
tors to the contrary, the DPS will not for long occupy
either the social, or be content with the economic status, of
the Negro.
If the group of individuals who are now so interested
in bringing into our state European DPS to replace Negro
farm labor would use the same amount of time, energy
and expense, both presently and in the future, in improv-
ing the lot, working conditions, economic and educational
opportunities of these same Negroes, they would go a long
way towards solving both our economic and racial prob
lens.
