Along Freedoms Road
NEWS OF THE NAACP

BY RUTH PERRY

December 10 may well turn out
to be a very significant date. On
this day 'bus segregation" con-
ference will be held in Washing
ton. Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell,
Jr., has called this conference to
decide upon measures more APP
propriate to secure observance of
the U S. Constitution and laws by
carriers and all others who may
require segregation of white and
colored passengers on common
carriers"
Thirty-four United States At
tornsyS from IA states have been
summoned to the one-day work
shop" Actually, those attending
the conference will in effect be
attending a law class where each
u. S. Attorney will be instructed
how to tear down the local law
on segregation on intra-State
transportation, and figure out how
to nullify all of the varied state
laws still maintaining segregation
in transportation.
Florida, of course, will be rep
resented at this workshop, as well
as other Deep South states. To
many observers, this may prove to
be the first move in federal action
by the Justice Department to try
to hold the Negro bloc vote for
the Republican party. In any
event, the election last Novem-
Der could well be the turning
point regarding the value placed
on the Negro vote.
The day has gone when the
Negro vote can be discounted, and
Negroes themselves are placing
the Hroper evaluation on their
ballot, and are voting in ever in
creaang numbers. One Of the most
important facts coming out of this
presidential election, I think, is
this: the Negro vote from now on
Will be a most potent factor in
American elections In the future
it cannot be disregarded, and pol
itlcians will have to back up their
campaign promises with better
poSt-election action than they
have in the past. To sum it all
up-the Negro vote is coming OF
age, and from now on will have
an important place in the Amer
lean political scene
/ don't need to remind any of
my readers that the NAACP is
working for first class citizen
ship for the Negro. In the past
have spoken many times about
the value of this attainment both
to Negroes as well as to Whites.
For any citizen of the u. S., first
class citizenship means certain
rights, guaranteed by our Con-
stitution, but it also means the as
sumption Of certain duties and re-
sponsloilitieS. In a democracy,
think, privileges and rights are in
equal proportion to the duties and
responsibilities Of citizens in
maintaining their freedom.
For example, registering and
voting is a very good example of
exercising our right to partici-
pate in our government, but it
is also privilege to vote for
whom we please.
70 develop this further, as cit
liens, we should also take advan-
tage of services designated to
make us becme better members
of our community, and, of course,
in very real sense, this leads to
becoming better members of the
larger community - our country.
There are many kinds of COM
munity services in our area. one
of the best offered to all OF us,
are the services of our public
libraries.
Libraries are more than places
to house books, nowadays, or for
that matter, they are no longer
merely places to take books out
