Here are nine names:

Johnny Lucas, Robert L. Lee,
Everett M. Young, Merle Smith,
Eugene Prick, Myron Rawers and
Sam Sawaya.
Recognize an yof them? You
probably do recognize a few. You
probably recognize that not one
is a Negro. Lohrey is, as all know,
the Mayor of Dayton and Merle
Smith is a city commissioner.
Saway is a grocer with stores on

names happen to be grouped to-

Well, these are the. nine men
who obtained the 24O5 signatures

nine, those with the highest num-
Der of votes, will go on the bal

His statement was confirmed
by Dolby. Manager Boudreau told

NAACP Ends
Conference

Eight hundred delegates attend
ed the NAACP conference which
just ended in Los Angeles. These
800 delegates passed some resolu-
tons which should be seriously
considered-and acted upon-by
Daytonians. The delegates called
upon its national officers, branches
and other units, as well as every
member to:
1. Cooperate in a drive of reg
istration Of one mill ion Negro
voters in the southern states;
2. Increase registration Of Ne
groes and other minority group
members in other sections Of the
country;
3. Sponsor get-out-the-vote cam
paigns in local, state and national
elections.
The filibuster which killed the
civil rights program in the 81st
; congress was roundly condemned.
The conference also expressed OPP
position to the Presidents loyalty
program, the Mundt-Ferguson bill
and their counterparts in the var
ious states. 1t urged the President
to revoke his loyalty order forth
with. Discrimination in the ma
tons capital, the practices of the
Unamerican activities committee
and police brutality in various
cities were likewise condemned.
Incidentally, the 41st annual
convention of the association will
be held in Boston, Mass, the final
week of June next year.
Once again an appeal is made
to Daytonians to join the NAACP
and help build a freer America.
Now is the time. For the assault
on the civil liberties of minority
groups is stepping up. A bigger
NAACP will be stronger. A strong
er NAACP will do the job quicker
and more thoroughly.

Commission Race Points
Finger at Negro
eudership

fort was made to urge a Negro
to run. Not a single Negro leader
who was eligible had the courage
to run. Organized labor, inciden-
tally, did equally as bad. The CLIO
did not put up a candidate, nor
has it interested itself in anyway
in the commission race.
Of the nine named above, Louis
Lohrey, Jack Reeder and Merle
Smith have been manned by the
so-called "All Dayton Citizens
Committee as the three they are
backing for election to the COM
mission. This is the group which
fought so vigorously the election
of C. J.. McLin in the last COM
mission race. The name is pure
fiction, because it is more repre-
sentative of the big corporations
than it is of the average citizens.
Very little if any of the solicit
ing for signatures was done on
the West Side of town. 1t appears
that this campaign will not be di-
rected toward the Negro popula-
ton. 1t is unlikely that candidates
will make any promises as far as
improving the conditions here. One
or two of the "unknowns'' may do
so, but that remains to be seen.
In short, the Negro people of
Dayton have little to take heart in
the coming municipal campaign.
Part of the blame must be di-
rected at the leadership" and
part at the people for not needing
the "leaders" a little more per-
sistently.

Mrs. Larson described schools

coffee is the chief export, as
Brazil produces four-fifths of the
