Sees Civil Rights
Issue Affecting
Presidential Race

WASHINGTON - Unless there
is civil rights bill passed this
year containing provisions that
will work and not merely pro-
visions designed to get both par
ties off the hook until after the
presidential election in Novcm-
her, the reaction could effect the
November result" NAACP Exec
utive Secretary Roy Wilkins told
Washington audience.
Speaking at the Annual Negro
History Week Program OF the
Nineteenth Street Baptist Church
on February II, Mr.. wilkins
said, the barring Of Negro Amer
leans from the ballot box has
become a scandal in 1860"
He added, however, insiders
have known for a long time that
only Is percent of Negroes Of
voting age are registered in the
South as a whole, compared to
60 percent of the whites Of vot-
ing age. II was not until the re-
cent Civil Rights Commission Re-
port disclosed the disproportion
that the practice was brought in
TO the national spotlight.
Mr.. wilkins termed the strug-
gle to win complete franchise for
Negro Americans, perhaps the
last great, basic battle in the field
OF human rights"
The NAACP leader reviewed
briefly the history of the Negro
in the United States, strcssing
tle long struggle for equal rights.
To-day il is still true that Negro
citizens arc denied many of their
rights as citizens" he noted. How
ever, he pointed out, ut is also
true that American democracy
provides freedom to fight to right
wrongs. This is a precious liber-
ty, available only in the Western
free world"
