A Bill has been introduced be-
fore the South Carolina General
Assembly that would set up the
regular election date for the
Town of Ocean Drive Beach from
June 10 to April 10, according to
H. S. Bennett, Mayor Pro Tenn
of Ocean Drive Beach.
Mr.. Bennett said that the Bill
was presented on behalf of the
town by John L. McCutchen.
Town Attorney. 1t was under
stood that the bill passed through
the legislature and is now pend
ing action by the state senate.
The election issue has become
a topic of speculation in recent
months. 1t first posed itself as
a problem when the Mayor and
members of the town council
resigned from office.
No potential candidates have
filed notice that they would run
for the Mayors office, but Grady
Johnson, popular threare mana,
ger who was defeated by three
votes in the 1949 election which
hos hooy tho canter of recent
controversy, has said he will seek
this office. Mr.. Johnson ran on
an independent ticket two years
ago after friends persuaded him
to oppose L. w. Fenegan for the
Mayors seat.
Candidates will be compelled
to file proper notice as candidates
for offices prior to the April
election.

DENIED RIGHTS
WIN FIGHT FOR
NEGRO RIGHTS

PHILADELPHIA - (ANP) $500
A spirited Civil War era fight by
the Catholic philopatrians of this
city to uphold Negro rights is
described in a history of the mems
club issued in honor of its Tooth
anniversary.
The 64-page bound volume,
"Highlights of Philopatrian His
tory" by James T. Gallagher, re-
calls that in 1858 there was a gen.
eral meeting in Philadelphia to
combine literary organizations of
the city.
The Catholic Philopatrian Lit
erary institute had been denied
admission for religious reasons,
and the Bannake institute, Ne
gro organization had been bar
red as a colored group.
When the PhilopatrianS finally
were accepted by the organization
"they Immediately opened a Wig
orous campaign to win fair treat
ment for the Negro club" the
history notes. They made their
point and the Bannake institute
was admitted.

LOS ANGELES - (ANP)- A
Negro has been elected state vice
chairman of the American Veter-
ans Committee.
The new officers are Lee A.
Merriweather, post-chairman of
the Wendell Willkie Chapter, AVG
in Los Angeles. He is the second
highest officer in the state and
will head the Southern Califor-
mia region.
Merriweather is believed to be
the first Negro elected to such a
high post in major veterans or
ganization.
In professional life, Merri-
weather is a field industrial re-
lationS secretary of the Los Ang-
eleS Urban League.

In Tennessee, the house unan-
imously passed a bill which in eff
feet kills the poll tax. 1t would
rar',ire citizens to pay only the
poll tax assessed against them I'm
1871, the year the state constitu-
ton was ratified.
At that time, however, the
state had no poll tax (that came
in 1890), and a person would
have to be 101 to have been OF
voting age then.
Under the present law poll tax
must be paid for the "year pre-
ceding an election" Veterans,
women. blind persons and people
over so years old are exempt from
the Tennessee poll tab.
Now that South Carolina no
longer has poll taxes, besides
Tennessee, the only states with
such a levy are Alabama, Ark
ansas, Mississippi, Texas, and
Virginia.

COCA COLA
BOYCOTT
SPREADING

New York City - A vending
machine concern in nearby Mount
Vernon was informed this week
that this city's 100000 Negro cit
liens had been asked to stop
drinking Coca-Cola because of q
speech made in Tampa, Fla, by
former Postmaster General James
A. Farley.
An executive of the concern,
the Complete Vending Service,
of 40 Millinton Street, Mount
Vernon, NY, replied immedi-
ately by telephone and express
ed the hope that the dispute
would be ironed out before re-
moval of the soda dispensing ma
chine.
The letter, written by Miss Rose
Morgan, president of the Rose
Meta House of Beauty, Inc, read:
Dear Sir: We wish to thank
you for the cooperation that we
have received from your comp
any in the installation and main
tenance of our Coca-Cola ma
chine.
Unfortunately, the public in
recent weeks, has written us crit
iciSms about the speech made by
Mr.. Farley, whom l believe is an
executive of the Coca-Cola Bott-
ling Company. His speech, as you
perhaps know, was in reference
to the handling of racial problems
in the South.
THE resentment engendered
caused our customers to ask us
why we continue to handle pro-
duct made by a company which
apparently did not appreciate the
Negro people as consumers. We
are therefore compelled to ask
you to remove the machine from
our premises"
Miss Morgan, who is also vice.
chairman of the National Fair
Play Committee. the organization
boycotting the Coca-Cola Comp
any, also instructed the 200 en-
ployees of Rose Meta to suggest
to salon patrons in the concerns
four shops that the stop Drink
ing Coke" slogan be passed along,
According to Herbert L. Bruce,
executive secretary of the NFPC,
the Coca-Cola drive is just a
starter.
I'VE are merely implement
ing the fight for FEPC as prin-
ciple in American industry" Mr.
Bruce said. I'VE are using this
boycott technique as last resort
because we know that the ma
tons business leaders (White)
know the value of a dollar. We
are hitting where it hurts.
There are several other unfair
companies on our list and we in

BISHOP CALLS
AFRICAN COLOR
BAR INDECENT"

CAPETOWN, South Africa -
(ANP) - Perhaps the first in
stance when the Anglican eng
hSh) church or one of its leaders
has fatty come out in opposition
to the governments policy in
South Africa of drawing rigid
lines of segregation between
blacks and Whites, occurred here
recently when the Right Rev. s..
w. LAWS, co-adjutor bishop Of
Capetown, described the color bar
as indecent"
The bishop, addressing the
Anglican synod, in session here
recently, said:
"Racialism operates as a subtle
destroying in the human mind
the ability to think Justly and
rightly on the intensely vital
question of human relationships.
1--WE (the church) must de-
nounce in ourselves and in 9TH
erS "the color bar in the mind"
for that is where the deadly evil
of race prejudice is born. Cancer
and consumption make deadly
ravages in South Africa, but the
deadlieSt disease in the fullest
sense is racialism in, its extreme
forms -. for it wounds more in a
man than his body.
"Racialism in South Africa is
a far deeper, deadlier historic
evil than can be reflected in the
adverse policy of any particular
government"
He pointed out that the White
group of South Africa, "a minor
ity group" consciously bases it
self on its social homogeneity and
the belief in the superiority of it's
blood. The net result is that it
asserts and defends against all
non-white groups and especially
against Africans "its privileged
position as a ruling class
"In one of its aspects, color bars
can be stigmated as an indecent
ramp to secure the good things
of life to the European group. It
is a shocking thing that one
group should have the power to
have its prejudiceS legalized and
turned into "a powerful weapon
for securing its own interest, at
the price of deadly harm and in
security to other groups.
Stripped of all its camoflauge,
the naked truth is that the color
bar pays dividends to those who
uphold them. But the danger is
even more serious than this &.
In sense not true before, racial
lists have a philosophy
hardening of mind, a fixing and
stereotyping of tendencies .s
which tend to mean the assump-
ton of basic permanent Superio-
ority of one group, and the basic
permanent inferiority of other
groups.
I'm South Africa, as elsewhere,
some of these principles set forth
are in various ways neglected and
denied"

should be keenly interested in our
approach because there will be
lots of advertising copy available
when we begin educating the
public to the fact big business
owes Negro Americans an oppor-
tunity to have and hold jobs
commensurate with our training
and ability.

DANCER of AH-Out Ear East War
Raised by Red Boycott of Treaty

Preparations for war damage
would be determined at a confer
ence between Japan and the coun-
tries concerned.
5-Communist China would be
included as treaty Signer.
6-The Soviet version of the bill
for human rights would be in
Icluded.
Japan would pledge not to
make any military alliances
against any power which partici-
pated in the war against Japan.
8-Japan would limit her army
to 100000 men, her navy to $4,000
and her airforce to 200 combat
planes.
9-Japan would not allow the
formation of any Fascist organi-
cations.
10-Military units other than
permitted in the treaty would not
be allowed.
11-Japan would not be allowed
to experiment with atomic weap-
Eons. or guided missiles.
12-Japan could develop indus
tries and trade.
13-Japan must demilitarize the
straits on both sides of her coast
line.
If Russia demands that Japan
sign such treaty with the Com
munist world, the overwhelming
gap between the East and West
will finally have been stretched to
what may be the breaking point.
