ed. AvercIl Hartman OF New
York has much TO recommend him
in the way OF personal character
and liberal impulses.
Certainly his record on racial
issues Is impressive. far more
than that Of any other public fig
ure currently being discussed for
the Presidency. II was Hartman.
who. without fanfare, broke up
racial segregation at the Wash
ington. d. c. Airport by quietly
exercising his powers as Secre-
tary OF Commerce,
II Ia interesting that Mr.. Har-
riman did this after his predeces-
sor. Henry Wallace, had claimed
To be without authority to act. II
IL even more interesting and
significant that Averell Hartman
had forgotten about the incident
until II was called TO his Rtten-
ton n few weeks ago. II was the
decent thing 10 do. 20 he did it
and then forgot II.
Similarly. the Hartman record
OF employing Negro STAFF repre-
sentativcS with tho Mutual Secur-
ity Administration shines in con-
trRst with that Of the rest Of the
defense program.
In spite OF all this, II ls hard
to consider Averell Hartman
realistically as any more than a
"favorite SON. candidate. In other
words, his hold on the New York

cratic Convention. and his chances

even less than those of Hartman.
The Democratic Party 10 not go
ing 10 nominate anyone who can
not hold the South practically in
tact, and Humphrey certainly
wouldn't do that--more credit 10
him. kefauver could win, strange
as II may seem TO anyone who Is
remotely acquainted with the
gentleman and who compares his
qualifications with out national
needs. But there In certainly no
prospect that should please the
Negro voter in the possible nom
lnation of a man who had to Sc
cure the advice Of public relations
advisors TO frame his position OF
FEPC. tAnd what a position that
turned out 10 bell
On the Republican side, Taft
would seem 20 be completely i'm
possible for consideration by the
Negro voter. no matter whether
he wins the nomination or not.
This Is not simply because OF his
cynIcally dishonest position on
civil rights, but because the Ohio
Senator appears 10 be equally
cynical and dishonest on no many
other issues.
Anything to win q vote seems
TO be his political philosophy and
the more votes he gains the more
dangerous his philosophy be-
comes. Many Negroes are saying
with increasing vehemence that II
they had 10 choose between Sena-
tor Russell and Senator Taft, they
would take Russell. And think
they are right.
This is the main basis Of my
personal hope that General Eisen-
hover win win the COP nominal
ton. To me II Is unthinkable that
should be asked to choose, for
Instance. between a Taft and q
Kefauver or Russell.
And even II Governor Stevenson
should be drafted by the Demo-
cratic Convention and should be
accept the draft. I feel that II
would b" bad for the voters TO
have 60 choose between two such
widely disparate alternatives. The
shOddier the competition offered
by the Republicans. the sloppier
becomes the performance Of the
Democrats. This has been proven
in three successive Democratic
Administrations. II Is time for a
change but not n change in the
quality OF the candidates even
more than in the party in office.

"RAYMOND THE
MAGICIAN"
TO APPEAR

"There are trades to all tricks
and my trade is tricks" says
Raymond the magician, when
asked about his coming perfor-
mances at the Liberty and Mod
ern theaters. Magicians are the
closest mouthed people when ii
comes to asking them about how
this is done and how that is done
and Raymond is no exception.
When asked how he caused the
bottle of milk to disappear at his
last performance, he wisely re-
marked, 81, merely hypnotised
the audience, drank the milk and
when it was all gone just de-
hypnotised them"
If you're in for a good night of
fun and want to get fooled then
just hurry down and get your
advance tickets now for the show
that will appear at the Liberty
and Modern theaters Friday and
Saturday nights, Oct. 10 and IL

magic show you will find one of

you've ever seen.
If you have a strong heart tho
you'll be able to- stand 1t and
should you faint during any part

mind you that there are two reg
istered nurses in attendance at all
times. Fellahs, here's your one
