POLITICAL PRIMARY 1854
"recOrd nomination" of five
cOlored Republicans to the
Massachusetts House of Rep
reSentativeS has certainly
posed a huge challenge to the
state Democrats, regardless of
the outcome in November. The
COP pledge of "wider integra-
ton" is quietly gaining steam
as the alert members of the
Party seek to keep pace with
cOlOred progress abroad.

COLORED PEOPLE are GER
tainly being elected abroad to
the highest administrative DO
sitions. France, of course, has
long led in this field with ca
binet ministers and territorial
governors. And now Britain is
seeking to duplicate, if not
excel, France This Autumn
OF 1854 finds colonial colored
prime ministers, congressman,
Judges, and other civil SER
wants in numbers abroad not
equalled in the U. S. A.

THE RACE at this time is
between the U.S.A., Britain
france, Russia, and other Pow
ers to develop and train the
various cOlOred peoples into
their ways Of civil and military
administration. Uncle Sam can
not afford to fall behind in
TINS race. The stakes are ton
nigh. That is why all inteIle-
gent Americans realize the vi
tai Importance of opening all
schools, jobs, and opportunities
to Tan Yanks. Democracy NAV

laugh at the misery two (2)
colored Congressman in the
United States. Both Britain
and France have, or are pro
ducing more colored govern

people than we are. In Asia
Russia is developing the same

THE ISSUES of FEPC, inte-
grated schools, and other OBJ
enings of opportunity to Am
erican cOlOred citizens is no
longer "a local problem" to he
Judged by people without vi
sion. The elimination of the
suppresive evil called "segre-
cation" is not mere courtesy;
1t has become a necessity. The
relationships and the leader
ships Of the U. s. with the rest
of the world may rise or fall
o n this very issue within the
next rs years.

DEMOCRATS, meanw lille
are also awakening to the
need for fuller utilization of
Tan Yanks in government.
The need was certainly en-
phasised often to both Roose-
welt and Truman. The Demo-
Gratis made some Roadway, but
far from sufficient. The Re-
publican Bay State nominal
ton Of five colored citizens
should definitely awaken the
state Democratic chiefs to-
ward fuller Improvements. 1t
has already improved the COP.
