Alexander Issues
Special SfGFemenf
FdVoFS Equalify

Former Congressman John G.
Alexander, who il a candidate for
that office from the third district,
has issued this special statement
to the Minneapolis Spokesman.
You may tell your readers TO
count on me to support every
single civil rights gain they have
made In Minnesota. Furthermore,
I am going to do everything in
my power in Washington 10
spread those rights over the en-
tire nation
But that Isn't enough. The
people Of America have been the
victims Of a political party which
gives civil rights with one hand
and takes them away with the
other.
Equality must 60 deeper than
the mere night TO vote. II must in
clude equality In the armed forces
draft. for instance. Men Of every
color must stand shoulder TO
shoulder II our country II en-
dangered. And no one color must
give more Of its sons than an
other.
Equality means TO me that
there must be no government
money spent on schools which dis
criminate between students on the
basis Of color.
TT means that every child
shah have the same opportunity
TO grow up IN peace. II means
that every child shah be allowed
to enter any profession, business
or line Of work and receive equal
pay for equal work. and an equal
chance to get q JOB on the bass
Of his natural ability.
Il am In favor Of FEPC. of
course. But I want 70 90 beyond
Q mere Law. and do what I can 20
zee that FEPC 10 lived UP TO-"
