WHAT SHOULD
PEOPLE READ
BY Laureen White

NEW YORK - (Global) -
Should loyal, patriotic, law-abid-
ing American read literature that
criticizes their government?
Should mature individuals in
vestigate, analyze and question
the policies of their government?
What rights and privileges should
law-abiding citizens of democ-
racy have?
These questions were debated
with zeSt and vigor by a group
in a lower 9th ave. barber shop
recently. Someone had read I'VE
Charge Genocide." The reader ex-
planned that the book was a pc
tition to the UN by group of
Communists. These Communists
charge that the United States
government is practicing genocide
against Negro Americans by de-
nying them employment oppor-
tunities, educational opportunities,
the right to vote and the use OF
hospital facilities.
The one individual who had
actually read the book contended
that it was spacious. He said that
il appeared to be an accurate pic
ture of conditions in the United
States, but actually was not. He
stated further, IF colored people
in other parts of the world should
read that scatching indictment Of
the United States, they would fly
to the arms Of Russia. That
would be great tragedy for -us

though much of the book is spac-

two very significant paragraphs:
"The notorious failure to enforce
or even attempt to enforce the
Fifteenth Amendment to the Con-
stitution of the u. S. which stip-
ulates that Negro citizens shall be
secure in their right to vote, re-
suits and has resulted in the mur-
der of Negroes on the basis of race
when they attempted to vote.
These murderers are not tried
under the Fourteenth and Fiji

Rights Act. For genocide or kill

A great advocate of a full life
for the blind, Miss Harrison is
active in her sorority, Alpha
Kappa Alpha, she swimS, dances
and goes to the movies.
The biggest dream of the blind
psychology major is to inspire
the blind in Miami to forget"
and live normal lives. Her own
experience, she said, has con-
vinced her that blind people can
also live full lives.

1T is unsafe these days to Vol< :,

Anyone reminding his fellow

doomed to ignominous oblivion by
the poisonous tongue of a

XXX POSTS BOND
IN FLOGGING OF
WOMAN

WHITEVILLE, N. c. - (ANP)
- Thomas L. Hamilton, the for
mer grand dragon who promoted
himself to Imperial Wizard after
the khan invaded this county
last year, last week posted bond
in connection with the flogging
of a white man and a Negro wo-
man in Columbus county.
He is scheduled to appear in
Recorders court here on June
10 for preliminary hearing on
charges of conspiracy to assault.
The charges grew out Of the
flogging of Mrs. Evergreen Flow
ers, colored woman of Charles
ton, and a White automobile me-
chanic, Woodrow johnson.
Mrs. Flowers was dragged from
her home, on the night of Jan.
IS. 1851. She was beaten and her
clothes were torn Off She ran,
but was caught, whipped again
and felled by a gun butt. And her
husband not she - was the
intended khan victim.
Less than 25 persons were on
hand to view Hamilton as he
visited the courthouse to post
bond in the case. This was in
sharp contrast to huge crowds of
admirers who greeted him here
last August during his first rally.
Hamilton may be tried by
special term of Superior court in
July.

WASHINGTON - (ANP) -
Because professors and students
at Howard university here came
to the aid seven months ago, a %
year old blind coed will be grad
uated next month, and be able to
return to her hometown as a
teacher of blind children.
The coed, Miss Geneva Harri-
son, appealed for volunteer read
ers of class textbooks to aid her
studying after her funds for
such readers had been exhausted.
Her appeal was written to pro-
fessors who in turn called on
students to volunteer to aid her.
More volunteers reported than
she could use, including some
professors.
Anytime she stepped out of
Crandall Hall, a coed was waiting
to guide her across the. street.
Teachers kept an eye on her les
sons and even arranged addition
al conferences.
The all-out effort on the part
of students and faculty has slim
ulated Miss Harrison's desire to
be graduated this spring, and
thus be able to return to Miami,
Fla, her hometown, and teach
blind children.
The spunky coed lost her sight
in 1945, just two years before
coming to Howard. She had re-
fused the use of a seeing eye dog
and rejected a. cane. She began
to explore the campus finding her
