Val Washington And The
Republican Party

From in Washington see by the news reports
that Val Washington top Negro official in the National
Republican Party organization in singing the praises of
the Eisenhower administration and the Grand Old Party
is asserting that the administration and the party has
carried out everyone of Ia promises made to the
Negro citizens of the country during the last campaign
Mr.. Washington evidently has little respect for the
intelligence and the memory of the Negro voters OF the
country of whom regardless of party preference
who takes honest view of his text, will not fail to
recognize the fact that every of the propositions to
which he points in favor of the Eisenhower Admnistra
ton and the Republicans started and practically
completed during the Roosevelt Truman Democrat Ad
rninistrations.
Moreover, the greatest accomplishment on behalf of
the American Negro since the reconstruction the
creation of the healthy atmosphere of public opinion by
President Franklin D. Roosevelt in regard to Negro
rights citizens of this country which lead to the
United States Supreme Court decision in 1916 uphodng
the right of Negroes to vote in the Democrat Primaries
in Southern elections
What Mr.. Washington don't know is that more and
Negroes becoming to know that the worst blow
to their progress towards full freedom and frstcass
citizenship the HayesTlden DEAL and the Unwrten
Compromise entered into by the Republican Party and
wnked at by the Republican party since 1890 the two
things that lead to the dsfranchsement of the Negro,
to segregation and to the south Oneparty System The
one-party system being the greatest evil of them ALL
Until the Republican Party makes sincere effort.
to help rid the South of the party SYSTEM by getting
rid of it's pocket southern organizations the only
way to undo of the evils which followed the Hayes
Tilden Deal and the Unwritten compromise the songs
of praise of Mr.. Val Washington will continue to have
rather hollow sound

The Winner Is Still Our Candidate

few weeks before the campaigning leading up to
the voting in the August 3rd Democrat primary got well
underway, at the Annual Dinner of the Mississippi As
ISOLATION of Negro Democrat Clubs its President and
Executive Director announced that candidate in
the for Governor in the field of five the WIN
ner; meaning was then pointed out, that who
among the five elected to the states highest office
would seek the means and welcome the opportunity
work with them Governor of the state for the better
ment of the lot of the Negroes through greater cooper
ton and goodwill between the Negro and white citizens
of the state
We also stated then that anyone who said that we
were backing any candidate in the for Governor
would be guilty of deliberate and calculated falsehood
With the voting in the August 3rd primary having
narrowed the field to two candidates who
gagged in campaigning for votes in the August 23rd
run-of the winner of which will be the Governor of the
state say again here reassertng everything previous
ly stated that candidate for Governor in the Au-
gust 23rd voting is the winner.

NOTES FROM
BERMUDA
By GERALD A. BRANGMAN

Hamilton, Bermuda, (GlobaD -
New York City's Jerome Richard.
son, proved to be too much for
Bermuda's lightweight champ, Al
Stevens as they clashed for the
honors at Kings Stadium on Sat-
urday night, July 23rd. Richardson
was determined to make the fight
short and snappy, starting in right
from the sound of the bell. Stevens
was knocked out completely in the
35th second, of the fourth round.
Richardson has terrific left
punch. Manager Bobby Gleason
had hoped the fight would have
gone a little longer, but Richard
son did not prefer it that way. 1t
was a good fight and the best man
won.
II 1t was remarkable to have had
such a good turnout just a few
days before the annual St. Georges
Somers Cup Match. Gil Clancy,
manager of Stevens and co-manag-
er Washington, had their hands
full. The members of the fighting
party were guests at the Hotel I'm
perial.
Speaking of the Imperial, it is
becoming the ideal place for eager
tourists who come here, and Man
ager Carl Wade reports that book
ings are good for the next few
weeks. Some of the recent guests
there were Mesdams Adele Car
penter of Jamaica, and her sister,
Marie Bryant of New Orleans, La.
They had always wanted to see the
"fair Isle" They came down on the
palatial liner, Queen of Bermuda
and were joined here by Mrs.
Ohannia Runnello and Bob Martin
of Jamaica who flew in by plane.
They saw a good bit of the Isle
during their short stay, and en-
loved themselves so completely that
they did not want to leave. Mrs.
Runnello and Mr.. Martin were
house guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Morris of North Shore,
Devonshire.
One of Americas leading televi-
sion stars, Jackie Gleason, babe
farewell to Bermuda last week, af-
ter spending five weeks at Capri"
at fuckers Town. The popular star
found the track on the beach a good
tonic for reducing. This was his
first visit here, and we hope to see
more of him. We wish him continu-
Cd success in his chosen field.

The FAMILY

NEW YORK, GlobaO-
Dear Miss, Ball:
BY ELGIVA BALL

NEW YORK, GlobaD-
Dear Miss Ball: r..
met a guy a few years ago
who was very nice. We were
thrown. together frequently and
naturally became friendly. All Of
a sudden, we find we're in love-
Now a wife comes into the pic
ture. He says they are getting a
divorce but she is the hold-up. She
wants more than he is willing to
give. They own the house jointly
and each keeps an apartment, but
they don't speak when they meet.
He is very attentive to me and
takes me out often. There are no
undercover dealings and it is gen.
orally known that divorce proceed
ing are taking place. Do you think
| should break off with him?
Esther-Mississippi
Dear Esther:
Only you have all of the facts
at your command and can make
the final decision. 1t is unusual
for persons under stated circum-
stances to live in the same house
(but, of course, you say they have
parate apartments.) Being
adults, you two know how to handle
yourselves and so will take great
care to be seen always in the COM
pany of others, if you must be to-
gethei.
You're thinking about marrying
divorced man, when the time
comes! Are you sure you love
him? Have you looked the field
over thoroughly? Why is he be-
ing divorced? Have you consider
ed this? Are you two suited for
each other? Do you think alike
and like the same things? How
will his financial status affect the
relationship if he has to pay ali
mony? These and many other ques-
tions are extremely important.
He will have the advantage over
YOU in that he has had previous
marital experience. Perhaps he will
use that experience to help you,
as we'll as himself, to adjust. Mar
riage is a serious business and you
want it to last. Treat it as you
would your career. Work at it
very hard. Don't go into it with
the idea of divorce, for this pre-
vents you from giving your all.

MIR. Tubb And Negro Democrats

We noticed in the local newspaper reports that Mr..
Tubb the distinguished chairman of the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee has serious doubts
regards the possibility of Negro being loyal to the
Democrat Party.
One of the main reasons why most white people of
the South not wanting to believe that Negroes,
pecally in the South, cannot honestly adhere to the
principles of the Democrat party Civil rights and the
Lincoln Legend While the stand of the Democrat lead
of the South remains adamant in regard to civil
rights it still remains debatabe issue in the expand
ing policy and program of the National Democrat party
and which Negro Democrat party leaders have APP
preached with wisdom and without rancor and bitter
Moreover, upon closer examination, in all sections of
the country, it will be found that civil rights have not
been the predominant of the increase of Negro
Democrats but rather the broad economic base created
by the domestic policy of the National Democrat party
and Democrat administrations
1t can be recalled too that it Negro Democrat
votes that saved Mississippi and several other states in
the South from the embarrassment that have to
them since the Eisenhower election.
It also be pointed out here that the Negro
votes do whole lot in helping the Democrat party
win the election in 1885, which will not be without
benefits to Mississippi and the rest of the South
We understand the conditions being brought about
by the school Indignation question but hope that the
distinguished chairman of the State Democrat Executive
Committee won't let it lead to reading the Negro out of
the Democrat party.
