Negro Democrats
In Petersburg Win
Eleven Seats

PETERSBURG---Negr made sharp
inroads into membership on the city cen
trail Democratic committee here this week
IN the biennial ward meetings.
Eleven of the so seats decided went to
Negroes as white voters turned out only
in small numbers in most wards in the city.
In two wards meetings were not officially
held, although in one more than SO Ne
groes were present with just handful of
white voters
Negroes reside in only seven of the ten
precincts. Until two years ago there had
been no Negroes on the committee for
number of years. At that time two were
elected.
In several wards last night, Negroes
could have elected full slate but in two
instances a Negro stepped down to per-
NIT election of a white member.
The ward meetings are held biennially
to elect members Of the committee and
are open to all qualified Democratic vot-
ers.
In the city's fourth ward, E. Thomas Nc
CURE, Republican, claimed he o u ! d
ave been elected to the committee but
declined. This week he issued 3 statement
in which he criticized the method of elect.
ing committee members as being entirely
too OPEN"

Mt. Zion Pastor To
Leave Charlottesville

Rev Herman Hayes Watts of the Mt.
Zion Baptist Church of Charlottesville, an
nounced his resignation at the morning
service on Sunday, November IL. Rev.
Watts has had short but fruitful min
istry in our city. Many people have joined
the church under his leadership, huge
throngs have attended his services and
great material prosperity has been en-
loyed by the church.
Rev. Watts has enjoyed heights of sue
cess not usually enjoyed by young min
iSter not yet 80. He has been called to
three outstanding churches already. He
won several state and local oratorical con-
tests as high school student and betan
serving rural churches soon after entering
college. He holds an A B degree in Philos-
ophy and Religion from Virginia Union
University and has completed residence
requirements for the d degree
Rev. Watts leaves now to enter the pas
torate of the Kaighn Avenue Baptist
Church in Camden, n. j. This is the larg-
est church in all of South Jersey and the
Mother Church of South Jersey. In spite
Of the age of the church it has had few
ministers. The last minister, Rev. Charles
Lee is the only minister to ever leave the
church. He left only to return to his home
church in Philadelphia.

From Behind
The Curtain
By T. White Southerner

Segregation is Americas iron curtain
its greatest evil has been that it prevents
US from understanding h other and
from being conscious of others growth.
On both sides of the curtain we are about
tifty years behind in our interpretations
81 the other. Write in questions concern
lg racial attitudes of the educated white
ooutherner of today. Names will be with
leld. Here is one question:
Dear White Southerner: How can white
people reconcile their feeling that it's all
right TO have us come into their homes
and take care of their children with their
feeling that we would contaminate them if
we sat beside them on a bus?
Dark and Puzzled
Answer: This is like replying to the
question, When did you stop beating
your wife 2" | have never known anyone
who felt contaminated by sitting be-
side Negroes. Undoubtedly h ere are
cases Of this feeling, just as, despite vac
cine, there are cases of smallpox But it
It is mistake to figure these into your
everyday thinking.
With jGW exceptions, we avoid sitting
beside Negroes because to sit with one
would make us conspicuous. The very same
people who in the South stand, rather than
SIT beside Negro, are perfectly happy
seated e d e one in Washington and
points north Since mixing up the races is
contrary both to law and cutoms in the
South, only a potential crusader will be a
party to it. The rest of the white popula-
ton would as leave board bus in a
bathing suit, and for approximately the
same reason.
The answer to your question, Dark and
PUZZLED is that CUSTOM is the common
denomination between these two apparent
ly irreconcilable attitudes We are used
to having Negroes nurse our children !;
we are used to having them sit separately
on buses. It's as simple and as stupid as
that. The NAACP has the right idea. Get
the law changed. Then we will all work
together, more happily than yon think, on
changing the custom
