One of the aftermaths of the

Of voting. PR is a fairly recent
method Of voting. It was devised
as a mean of gaining a more
representative and democratic rep
reseutation in municipal governing
bodies. Wherever it has been util-
lied as a method of voting it has
done just what its proponents pre-
dicted it would do. It has enabled
Negroes and members of other mi
nonities to gain seats on city coun-
ellis which they otherwise would
not have been able to do. For this
reason reactionary forces in those
cities which have PR are fighting
to get rid OF 1t.

remaining cities with PR. Under

Youth Conference

Today is the last of the 18th
annual Conference of the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored Peoples Youth Coun-
ellis and College Chpters. The 800
young people who attended the
conference displayed an unusual
amount Of vigorous determination
to accomplish some conceret ad-
vancements for the Neogro people.
There were not just Negroes,
but whites in attendance at Bethel
Baptist church where the sessions
were held. The conference to them
was not a mere social gathering
together of young people frmo all
over the country. 1t was a serious
business, a matter of living in this
democracy as equal human beings
in every single respect, political,
economic and social. They revealed
ton to destroy for all time the

One of the high points in the
conference was the stirring speech
of w. w. Lw Of Savannah, Ca,
who delivered the keynote talk.
His main thesis was that America
had better direct the energies she

done in a different manner than
in the simple majority ballot sys-
tenn. In Dayton, for example, vo-
tiers voted for any three of the
six candidates who were running
for the three vacancies. Those
three with the largest number of
votes were elected. In the Queen
City,. however, there were nine
candidates to be elected. Voters
voted for nine of the many can
didates on the ballot in order Of
preference. First, the first place
votes are counted, then the second
plce votes, and so on and son on.
This quite naturally consumes
some time in the counting.
The reactionaries in Cincinnati
have been desperately making eff
forts to get rid Of this type Of
voting. They are trying to make
capital out of. the fact that last
Tuesday PR was voted out in
Toledo. Cincinnatians should COM
bat any attempt to replace this
fair system with the old machine
controlled type Of voting. Make

table that Rev. Horace White of
Detroit, who spoke after Mr.. Law,
found it bodybuilding to throw
some barbs at what the militant
youth had said. He was eminently
unsuccessful, only succeeded in
ridiculing himself.
The tenor of his speech held
throughout the conference. One
sometimes feels that youth could

serves not as a stimulant, but a
deterrent.
