Some Reflection On The Louisiana
Election
VT


Down in Louisiana the other day in the election for
Governor of the state for the first time since the
StructOn days, a Negro candidate Kermit Parker,
entered in the race which included several white cand-
dates.
According to reliable information there up
wards of $4,000 Negroes registered and qualified to vote
in the election yet Parker the Negro candidate poed
only 5000 odd votes.
good look at the Louisiana election ought to put
to end for all time to of the main and most
telling of the Sterotyped conclusion that has lead most
of the bitterness in the opposition to Negro voting IN
Louisiana we'll throughout the rest of the SOUTH
and particularly in Mississippi where doing this period
widespread reports still being heard of the refusal
to allow and or, to accept poll tax payments by Negro
citizens which is the chief requisite in qualifying to vote
The sterotyped conclusion referred to is that about
if you allow the Negro to vote he will always vote
block and when there is Negro candidate all the
Negro voters will vote for the Negro candidate and
Negroes will be taking over the government.
All things considered the 5000 votes poled by Park
er should go long way toward moving stereotype and
thus the continuing opposition to the Negro enjoying the
full and unrestricted right to qualify and vote.
In Louisiana election the evidence, which is inds-
puabe shows that the Negro is not going to cast his
vote for candidate just because the candidate is
Negro
Moreover, the evidence shows that the Negro vot-
ers were scattered among the other candidates giving
evidence the fact that Negro voters and their votes
will be divided among the candidates the basis of their
personality and the issues involved reacting to the in
fuence of political campaigning which divided and in
fuence the voting of other people.
Finally what the Negro in Louisiana we'll as in
Mississippi and in the rest of the SOUTH for that mat
ter seeking in his effort to obtain the right to VOTE
is the opportunity to join hands with decent white
pie, and work together for the good of ALL

formed the Rev. Michael Scott that
if he returned to that part of the
world he will be refused admis-
sion.
Rev. Scott, since 1916 has been
the spokesman in the United Ma
tions of the tribal chiefs who OPP
pose the annexation of South West
Africa by the Union government.
South West Africa according to
recent ruling of the International
Court of Justice, still has inter
national status as former league

legally be absorbed by unilateral
action.

eminent spilled last month when
Prime Minister Daniel F. Malam
accused the u. n. of having COM
mitted aggression" against his
regime. The Union governments
chief executive said that segrega-
ton of the tribes in reserve was
vital to protect them against the
United Nations" and charged that
Rev. Scott was "a weIl-known hos
tile and fanatical foreigner and
agitator."
What especially irked Prime
Minister Malan was the invitation
extended by the Trusteeship Com
mittee to the chiefs whom Rev.
Scott represents. The committee
asked Pretoria to facilitate the
chiefs travel. Instead the Prime
Minister ordered his delegation TO
walk out of the committee and
out of the plenary meetings of
the General Assembly. No travel
documents were issued to the chiefs
and the committee heard Rev. Scott
instead.
A few days ago, Rev. Scott
said he received a letter dated
Dec. 10 from Pretoria in which the
secretary of the interior of South
Africa said that should he present
himself "at any of the Union Ports
OF entry" he would be refused
admission"
Rev. Scott asserted later in
letter to make Trusteeship Com
mittee that Malan, in recent cam
palgn statements, had urged the
annexation of the neighboring
British dependicies of Bechuana-
land, Basutoland, and Swaziland
ne said Prime Minister Malan had
publicly stated that the incorpora-
ton of these regions into the Union

And has a very poor chance.

Probing Bombings

WASHINGTON, D. c. (NN
PA)-The Justice Department said
last Friday it is proceeding with
all the resources at its command
in it's effort to obtain evidence that
will justify prosecution of those
guilty of the series of bombings in
Florida.
These bombings, climaxed by the
Christmas night bomb-murder of
Harry T. Moore, 46-year-old Of
ficer of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, and the fatal injury of
his wife, Harriet, in Minis, Florida,
included the bombing in Miami
of Carver Village, a colored hous-
ing project, Jewish synagogue, and
the attempted bombing of a Roman
Catholic Church.
The Justice Department indicat-
ed that it hoped to develop cases
that could be presented to grand
juries with the expectation of in
dictments. The necessity of OBJ
tanning evidence that will stand up
before offering it to grand juries,
however, was emphasized. No good
would come, it was pointed out.

STRAIGHT
AHEAD"

NEW YORK (GlobaD More
than two hundred years ago, Gen.
George Washington, in letter to
a Jewish congregation in Provi-
dence, Rhode Island, made a state
ment which employed this phrase:
/" This country which to big
otry gives no sanction, and to per-
secution no assistance >" The
statement has become a classic
one, and should be recalled by
those Americans who like to in
sist that racial and religious and
color bigots cannot be curbed by
legislation.
1t is doubtful if anyone ever ar
gued seriously that laws unto
themselves would stop discrimina-
ton and bigotry any more than
anyone would argue seriously that
laws unto themselves would stop
murder or robbery. But we have
laws against those crimes, and
what we are actually saying by
those laws is that 4" This coun-
try to crime gives no sanction"
and by our laws guaranteeing trial
by jury and the writ of habeas
corpus, we say ". To persecu-
ton no assistance"
In the field of race relations we
can do the same thing. Whether
the laws against discrimination in
employment, in education, and in
housing-as established in the
State of New York-in themselves
will stop discrimination in those
areas, is not the most important
factor. What is important is that
they say in emphatic terms that
the State of New York 'gives no
sanction" to these evils and there
by calls upon all people of good
will to abide by them.
1t may not be imperative that
rigid provisions are included to in
flict severe penalties upon those
who violate these laws, yet in Or
der that they will be worth while,
some form Of punishment, even if
it is merely an expose, should be
| imposed on those who insist upon
flouting the law.
What those who oppose legisla-
ton as a corrective measure and
insist upon education as the wea-
pom, apparently forget, is that leg
islation itself is a form of educa-
ton an effective form. 1t is
a sanction against. 1t works on
the hearts and minds of those who
would do evil; they are constantly
reminded that they are breaking
the law.
In free country such as ours
where public opinion plays a most
significant part in the development
of our course of action and in the
formation of our national policies
the conscience of man figures i'm,
portantly.
| Few men can enjoy the unfavor.
able position of being looked upor
by their fellow man as a crimina
whether his crime is one of VIC
lence like murder, or social one
isuch as racial or religious bigotry
Even the worst kind of bigot seeks
to justify his position in order tx
escape the cruel condemnation
more enlightened men heap upol
his immoral head.
If the United States is to full.
fill its destiny; if it is to live ur
to the prophecy of its founding
fathers; if it is to make good or
George Washington's pronounce
ment that it gives "to bigotry nc
sanction and to persecution no as

idea that it cannot improve mat
ters by legislation. The fact of
the matter is, legislation, which es-
sentially is just "rules of conduct
by which we shall live, is the only
way we can improve our lot.
