Editors Note: Our Nov. IL,
edition issued three days after
the national elections gave a
early account of how the Negro
vote affected the federal cleo
ton and the Presidential cleo
ton. This article is a later re-
sumo by the Associated Negro
Press on the same issue.

ing him the first Negro ever cleo
ted to a statewide administrative
position.
st. Louis contributed its share
by electing to the state senate its
first Negro, Theodore M. McNeal,
an official of the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters headed by A.
Philip Randolph.
Elsewhere scores of Negroes
were elected or reelected to seats
in the state legislatures and city
councils and to other local politi-
cal posts.
But in a year when every vote
proved of vital Importance to the
fortunes and futures of the two
presidential candidates, the Negro
vote took on added significance.
Generally the Negro vote
helped swell the slim Democratic
majOrities Kennedy and the DEM
Ocratic tickets rolled up in the
large northern cities.
In fact the large Negro Demo-
cratic majorities in such places as
Detroit, Chicago, st. Louis, New
York, Los Angeles and Philadel-
phia helped offset the suburban
and small town COP majorities
thus saving the states for the
Democrats.
Nationwide, Negroes who de-
serted the Democratic party to
vote for Eisenhower in 1852 and
1856 returned to the Democratic
fold either disenchanted by Ike's
weaknesses on key civil rights
issues or Iured by Democratic
pledges.
However, there were some not
able exceptions to the general DEM
ocratic trend of the Negro vote.
These were in Memphis, Atlanta,
Little Rock and several other
Southern cities where Negroes
voted for Nixon as a protest
against Southern Democratic re-
sistence to civil rights programs
or in an effort to support a move
for a two-party system.
In Little Rock, for example, the
Negro COP vote was definitely one
of protest against Gov. Orval Eau
bus who went on to win a land
slide victory for a fourth term
despite it. The fact that Winthrop
Rockefeller was campaigning Wig
orously for the COP ticket also
had it's affect on the Negro voter.
1t is a safe assumption that
the Negro vote was also instru-
mental in the defeat of Faubus'
proposed amendment No. 81, the
sO-caIled school closing measure
which was rejected by a 8 to
vote.
In most instances the Negro
vote was one of discernment. In
Memphis while the Negro vote
went to Nixon, it also supported
Estes Kefauver. the Democratic
senator in his race for reelection

No society can hope to remain strong
enough to sustain democratic institutions
for long when only one out Of twenty Of a
group Of its citizens can go free to the polls.
Instead Of allowing discrimination to limit
the size Of our electorate, we must see that

Federal workers. n
Mr.. Jones feels the transition
this time will be much smoother
than it was in 1858, and that
the impact on employees will be
much less.
However, Mr.. Jones points
out that whenever there is a
change in an administration,
there inevitably are some
changes IN the personnel setup.
Whether the present Repub-
lican administration win be
succeeded by another Republic
can administration headed by
Mr.. Nixon or by a Democratic
regime headed by Senator
Kennedy, there will be some
dislocations in Government per-
sonnel. Mr.. Jones feels.
This is because a new Presi-
dent. regardless OF whether his
party is different from the pre-
|ceeding administration, wants
his own people In key jobs.
And these appointive ofiicials
in turn want their own stan
people. This goes down the line
to a considerable degree, af-
fecting q number OF. career
employees.
Mr.. Jones, a Republican, says
he feels that whatever person.
mel impact occurs, it will be at
least as great If Mr.. Nixon is
elected. This is because there
will be less understanding oi
the need for key job changes il
Mr.. Nixon wins than If Senator
Kennedy is the victor. the csc
chief said. There is a wide
spread misconception that il
Mr.. Nixon wins the top COM
mand In Government will be
substantially the same.
However, Mr.. Jones feels
that whoever Is elected the i'm

ployes will not be great. He
feels the majority of careerists
will be unaffected.
