Why Ed M. Turner Must Be Elected
To the Constitutional Convention

Michigan's Constitution.
Because the Ma ACP is the
strongest organization that we
have we should not lose the op-
porfvniiy Of eleeting Mr.. Turner
delegate 10 the Constitutional
Convention. In the final snsly-
sis this means that the rs TO 809o
Negroes in his area should elect
our known representatives in
order that the over so years ex.
isfsnee OF the NAAcP will con-
finve to mean something TO US.
II is your responsibility TO see
that we can stand behind the
elective representative of the one
organization whose record proves
it has done more for its people
than any other organization of
its kind in the history of the
world.
Moreove our newspapers,
churches. civic, and social organi-
cations must have the courage
to so Immediately on record in
support of Edward Nj. Turner's
candidacy, for the eyes of the
Nation are upon us. and if Turner
loses this election II will take us
another SO years to redeem our
selves, if ever. The election of
Mr. Turner will then prove that
our Unity and Dignity as citizens
actually exists.

I'VE hold these truths TO be

Members of the Council viewed
the Norfolk situation as another

between the Negro and Labor

U. S. Charges Voting
Discrimination In La.

Mrs. Lucky has applied diff
ferent standards TO Negro regis
trsfion applicants making II
harder for them TO register than
for whites.
These actions violate the Civil
Rights acts of 1857 and 1860,
the complaint said, by depriving
citizens of their right to vote be-
cause of race or color.
Nineteen members and five
representatives of the Citizens
Council also were named as de-
PENDANTS. The State OF Louisiana
also was named as a defendant
because registrars are state
agents.
Although approximately $500
of the parish's l6.377 eligible
Negroes were registered in
January. 1856, the complaint said,
only TBS were registered last
April 80. Through the period the
number of whites registered re-
mained constant - about $4,000,
out Of 40.l85 eligible.

registrar last week were charged
by the Department of Justice
with unlawfully purging nearly
1900 Negroes from the parish

because even after considerable
effort we have been unable to
obtain effective guarantees from
state and local officials that all
residents of the parish will be
allowed to vote on a fair equal
basis as required by law"

Polling Places
Selected For
Quota Referendum

Polling places for the 1861
wheat marketing quota referen-
dun to be held August "a have
been selected, chairman Kyle
Momberg of the Glacier County
Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation committee stated
this week.
The polling places will be open
from 8 am. until z pm, local
time, on referendum day. They
will be as follows: Glacier county
ASCS Frisbee Building, Cut
Bank, Montana.
Chairman Momberg also said
that provision will be made for
absentee balloting by persons
who will not be present on the
date of the referendum in the
cOuS ty where they produce
wheat. These people may secure
referendum ballots from any
Asses office for completion and

acreage allotments for 1862 have
not yet been mailed to producers
Momberg explained, pending tbs
completion of action on legisla
ton. However, the notices viii
be furnished to all producers be
fore the referendum. -
The question in the referendum
will be whether producers ap
prove or disapprove of market
ing quotas on next years crop. Ir
eight previous referenda on the
same question, farmers have ap
proved. Quotas become effective
only if at least two-thirds of the
producers voting favor them.
If quotas are approved, pro
ducers who comply with farm
acreage allotments are eligible
for price support at the full 1861
level. The rate has not yet beer
announced but is expected to be
in the neighborhood of So pei
bushel, national average. Produc
ers who exceed farm allotment:
are subject to marketing restric
tions.
IL quotas are disapproved, there
will be no limitations on wheai
marketings and price support
will be available at so per cen
of parity wheat parity is now
$2.37 per busheD but only to pro
ducers who complied with farm
