RegiSfeFod Negro Voters
Memphis (ANP) - While the
number Of registered white Shelby
County voters has dropped in the
last IL months, the number Of reg
istered Negro voters has increas-
ed.
Figures through June 80 (the
latest available) show that there

phis and Shelby County. There
are 70,7S3 Negro voters.
For June 30, 1860, the break

In other words, white voters

There are several reasons for
the shift, Lester H. Bremen, cleo

One is that Negroes have contin-
ued to register in larger numbers
than whites.

A 76-year-old Italian went to the town hall in Bergamo, Italy, to get new Identification documents. Of ficials checked their files and found he had not paid a 22-lire fine for illegal hunting 50 years ago. He paid up immediately. Half a century ago, 9 lire was worth about $4. But even though penal ties increased the fine 5-fold, he only had to pay the equivalent of 20 cents in the light of Italian cur rency values today.

postwar development by a

An example OF the pioneer

Many young artists are

The exhibit will not only be
concerned with housing but
with postwar building in gen.

and laziness. We have a lot of
work to do"

because of segregation. These

said critics, fuse the tragic re-
suits Of segregation and discrim-

But, he cautioned, I'VE must not
use years Of repression as an ex-
cuse for laziness ourselves. Being
a Negro does not have to keep
any one Of US from rising up and
