Amendment one was defeated.
do not mean to imply that an
appeal to racial hatred is no longer
profitable in political campaigns,
II is profitable but not as profit
able as 1t used to be. Let US begin
first with what happened In South
Carolina.
Hand bills were distributed I'M
signed with statements like these
on them: The FEPC was defined
as a Federal law requiring en-
ployment of persons regardless of
race, color or creed" Then the
question was asked, What does it
mean?" The three answers fol-
lowed:
"our cotton mills must hire all
races and colors II they apply"
Our public schools, where we
want segregation, must hire Me-
gro teachers il they apply"
"Swarms of Federal agents and
spies viii police all businesses and
farms, and will prosecute, try and
judge all cases away from South
Carolina without jury"
THERE IS nothing here to point
out that Negroes are not to be
hired because they are Negroes,
but rather they are not to be re-
fused employment because they
are Negroes. FEPC simply means
that II a man is competent he Is
not to be refused job because
he is colored. 1t wouldn't force an
employer to hire n man just be-
cause he is a Negro.
Here again, we have a DELHI
crate distortion of the facts. The
hand bill charges that Stevenson,
IL elected. would kill the Senate
right TO filibuster and the Senators
could no longer block passage of
FEPC. The hand bill ends thusly:
"A vote for Stevenson is a vote
for mixing the races in public
schools, in the cafeterias, in the
rest rooms, and for forcing the
textile mills to hire Negroes along
side the white"
There was a time when such
propaganda would have paid large
dividends. But with this kind of
support Governor Byrnes could
not carry South Carolina for
Eisenhower. There was a time
when such propaganda would have
strained race relations in the

area where the propaganda was
fostered. But as far as l know, no
Negroes life was endangered be-
cause these hand bills were dis
tributed.
This does not mean that the
white people of South Carolina are
against segregation. Not at all.
1t simply means that the people
knew that the election of Steven
son had nothing to do with segre-
cation. The question of segrega-
ton will be decided by the Su-
preme Court regardless of Steven
son or Eisenhower.
IN GEORGIA the same tactics
were employed to get the county
unit system applied to the general
election. Some of the proponents
of the measure deliberately dis
torted facts and tried to lead the
people to believe that If Amend
ment One was not adopted, segre-
cation would be destroyed in
Georgia.
In the literature circulated in
favor of Amendment One which
would carry the unit system to
the general election, the Talmadge
group advertised a fantastic un-
truth. They said "a vote for
Amendment One is a vote against
mixed schools and colleges"
The truth is. the county unit
system does not touch the mixing
of races in Georgia. Either the
United States Supreme Court or
the Georgia Legislature will have
to knock out segregation. And the
county unit system, at no level,
abolishes segregation, The pam
phlet goes on to say that "the
county unit system and Governor
Talmadge are the only buwarks
protecting us against Fedora
court intervention enforcing the
mixing of the races in our grade
schools and colleges in Georgia. I"
This is not so. l wish 1t were.
If it were true. segregation would
be almost out in Georgia. When
Negroes register and vote as they
Nshould, a Talmadge or a Byrnes
will no longer fan the fires Of
prejudice in order to have their
way. The significant thing is both
lost.

Adyents Of Buster and Custer, each
. few weeks old, have been narrated
here.
Duster, the third Of the group, came
by way of cat. which caught him by
the wing.
Proudly the animal brought the bird
to the front door. There is no shame
in the animal world at this deed. To
the contrary, only pride and Joy. Let
us remember that, when we tend to be-
rate the four-legged ones for doing what
nature tells them to do.

filled with Buster and Custer.

mon robin pose, that of head cooked
to one side, seeking worms.
1t is this pose that is the young robins
undoing, because in looking and listen
ing for angle worms it loses sight of the
attacker. People often dispute about how
robins catch worms. Is it done by seeing.
or hearing? That turned head seems to
speak for the latter. Yet the angle of
sight is such that the bird must turn
his head to see well. The truth is that
the robin does it by hearing, but not
with its concealed ears, as ordinary
birds. It hears through bone conduc-
tion, using its skull as q sort Of sound
ing board to catch the minute vibra-
tions of the writhing worm.
The young bird. in learning this art
so essential to its life, commonly forgets
the creeping cat. This is where it makes
its first big mistake. and sad one.
It was the mistake Duster had made.
The early morning Is difficult for
the bird world Not only are more young
caught at that time by four-legged crea-
lures. but predatory birds, such as hawks.
grackles and crows operate at that time.
The bird Duster sat on the floor of
the cage, with Buster chirping in ex-
citement, and Custer posed morosely on
the swinging perch above him.
Both Buster and Custer were losing
their tail feathers, but Buster, the first
Of the trio. was the most lively, and
knew his human friends.

greet human attention with JOY. This
may or may not be in his favor when

wonders how things get sold at modern

After q few hours Duster, the third,
was taken out Of the cage and released
in the back Of the yard. He was glad
to go. Happily he rose on wings and
sped to the top Of the garage. where he
looked around him in the sunshine The
next time. we hope, he will pay more
