THE NEGRO IN POLITICS

Dear Editor of the Arizona SUN
I cannot relate to you time
when the Negro was more import
ant in the political life of the ma
ton than he is today. He is a
very important factor in the plat
forms of both major parties this
year. The Negroes almost have
America across the barrel. No man
of sound judgment running for
public office will dare to disregard
the power of the Negroes vote.
All the Negro has to do today, is
to use his most powerful weapon
wisely. We must vote, vote, and
vote wisely.
So far as the national field is
concerned, 1 feel that we do not
have too much of a choice. We
have yet to see just what is "cook-
ing" I am sure one of the parties
will put a little more strength in
it's Civil Rights platform. All should
know by now that believe in stat
ing facts as 1 see them. / am not
too sure the Negro is prepared 10
switch from the free spending
Democrats to the close saving Re-
publican at this time. Over 80 per
cent of our people are in debt.
Many of them are obligated to the
last dime they earn, to meet notes
on new homes and fine cars.
If our government sets out now
to reduce the national debt, fear
there will be a reduction in both
prices and wages. 1t is hard to
make a debt under Democrat
and then, try to pay it off under
a Republican. Some folks are
ashamed to admit they are in debt.
I have been in debt most all OF
my life, so that is why know.
Well, let us come back home po-
officially. First we must use our
ballots wisely in all of Arizona.
We must be very careful as to
whom we choose to represent us.
1t is not enough to just send a Rep
resentative in. place of vast i'm
portance to represent us, we must
choose men and women of char
acter and dignity. ~.
Z A fine place to get the measure
ment of a man is from his home.
If he doesn't respect his own home,
why should you expect him to re-
spect you who place him in office?
l think it is time for Christian
folk to seek Christian men and
women as political leaders. If a
person doesn't honor God,' and re-
spect the Christian religion, how
can you expect he or she to uphold
the dignity and honor of public
office?
To my surprise, learned this
week that Mrs. Pearl Cook Turner
is running in District No. 20. Mrs.
Cook is fine person to represent
her race any where. She has. a
business head, and above all she
is Christian woman. By the way,
Doe Benson is a Christian man,
too. Don't get me wrong now, I
Arizona sun., 1952-08-15

Go not mean every person VINO pAo
fesses Christianity is an angel. l
Just like to have men of real Chris
tian character to represent my
cause. Regardless to how, and for
whom you vote. Be sure you vote!
