Box 3S7, Yuma

There is no doubt that human
rights will be one of the biggest and
hottest issues of the coming elections
This places an extremely important
responsibility upon the Negro in the
matter of his participation in political
activity in the coming months. The
Importance of the Negro vote has
been long recognized by everyone ex-
cept the Negro-that is, if his political
activity is any gauge of what he
thinks of his vote. There are entirely
too many non-regiStered, non-voting
Negroes in the areas where there are
no distractions to this participation.
The sincerity of the desire of the
Negro to achieve first class citizen
ship status must be reflected by his
effective participation in those activi-
ties of his community which affect his
life and status in society Certainly
politics come in this category of activi-
ties. To induce and encourage the
help of those who are interested in
seeing justice for all, the Negro must
show himself interested in efforts in
his behalf. We cannot sit by COM
placently and wait for others to do all
the work in obtaiing our rights. Reg
istering and voting intelligently is the
absolute minimum that we can do.
The question has arisen: why the
complacency on the part of the Negro
where politics is concerned?" The
very nature of politics is one of the
major contributing factors to the skep-
ticiSm which Negroes feel toward
politics. Much of the groundwork of
politics is laid behind closed doors in
caucus rooms from which the Negro
IS all too often excluded and not
being in on the policy-making levels,
the Negro has not developed an affin-
ity for politics. However, it must be
realized that Notwithstanding the deals
and manipulations in the closed rooms
there is still power in the ballot and
this is the medium through which the
Negro must assert himself. The issues
and candidates must be brought from
behind the closed into the light of
day and this is the point at which the
Negro must analyze what is being
presented. Be informed and REGIS
TER AND VOTE!

| publican of Arizona, noted that
the city-wide reassessment OF
taxable property had resulted
in an average increase of 8
per cent. The 81 per cent boost
in the Government property
valuation, he charged, was an
effort by someone to take ad-
vantage of the committees in
formal Federal payment for
mula.
And after the hearing the
subcommittee chairman, Rep
resentative Rabaut, Democrat
of Michigan, said city officials
tailored the real estate figures
to support their bid for a high
er Federal payment.
Save Standards
Today Mr.. Mclaughlin de-
MED this charge and said that
the same reaSsesSment stand
ards were used for all prop
erty-taxable or tax-free.
The explanation for the
much sharper increase in the
Federal property assessments,
he said, is this:
In the past the District nat
urally was concerned mainly
with assessment revisions on
taxable property. The figures
on the tax-exempt property
supplied last year at the sub
committees request were, of
necessity, far less current. The
reasSessment Jump for this
category, therefore, was far
higher than the average in
crease for the taxable property.
Mr.. Mclaughlin added that
the 81 per cent increase for
Federal holdings was lower
than the average rise on tax
able property in some sections
OF the city. In Georgetown, he
said. the average increase was
38.5 per cent and in the Pali-
sades area, IS per cent.
Last year, the subcommit-
tees budget sessions were held
as the city was winding up its
three-year reaSSesment pro-
gram. Official estimated that
the revisionS would average out
to a 9 per cent increase for
taxable property. In recon-
mending the $25 million pay
ment based on the revenue
loss formula, the committee
took the city's figures on the
tax-free property and raised
the total by 9 per cent.
