What of Negro Republicans
in Washington? They are con-
centrated mainly in the busi-
ness and professional classes
the doctors, lawyers, teachers
and ministers. Most own theil
own homes.
Aside from their expressed
concern about increased Fed
eral spending, welfare pro-
grams and high taxes, they US
ually point to the Southern
control of Congress as one o1
their principal reasons for op-
posing the Democrats.
Here's my reason for being
a Republican" a well-to-dc
Negro businessman and thiro
generation Washingtonian said.
THE only legislation ever in
troduced and passed clearly
spelling out the rights the Ne
gro has in society was drafted
and passed by the Republicans
over the opposition of the
Democrats"
These, he said, were the Thir-
teenth, Fourteenth and Fiji.
teenth Amendments.
Aided by Courts
Each of the advances the
Negro has made has been wor
by the courts deciding these
amendments gave certain rights
which couldn't be taken away

stand how any Negro could be
for the Democrats. If a Negro
is a Democrat he automatically
is casting his allegiance with
his worst enemy"
A Washington civic leader
who is a Republican SAID
Most of my friends are Dem
ocrats. Sometimes it seems tc
me that SO per cent are Demo-
Gratis. Sometimes I becom
very much annoyed with my
Negro friends. I think tn ey
think very provincially."
He said he could understand
why a Negro might vote fol
the Democrats in local elec-
tions in the North, but moi
nationally.
Today" he went on, "the

Negro is still voting for Roose-
velt, just the way he voted for
Lincoln for years. It's always
seemed to me the Republicans
are poor propagandists."
Rebuplicans Optimistic
Republican leaders are aware
that at present there are more
Negro Democrats in Washing
ton, They express cautious op-
timism, however, that their
party will be able to attract
an increasing number of Ne
groes by 1864.
Last month, in a speech be-
fore the Republican State
Committee for the District of
Columbia, a Negro minister
who is a Republican pointed
out that there are approx
mately 244,000 "nonwhi1es" Of
voting age (21 or older) in the
Capital and 248,000 whites.
These figures are politically
important because they indi-
cate practically equal voting
strength in the two racial
groups" he said.
After recalling the history of
the Negro politically and his
original attachment to the Re-
publican Party, the speaker
said:
Reluctantly the Negro has
forsaken his first love, the Re-
publican Party. He has been
turning to the Democratic
Party. although for genera
tions it offered him no hope
and was openly and tradition
ally hostile to his desires to
realize his political and civic
rights. '..
"He has turned to the
Democratic Party because it
seemed to recognize his i'm
portance and. possibly with
tongue-in- cheek, seemed to en-
courage his efforts to enjoy
first-class citizenship.
Divided Vote Seen
"I see no reason why Negroes
! in the District Of Columbia,
the same as any other group,
will not divide their vote be-
tween the two major parties.
"If the Republican Party will
change its attitudes. adopt ag-
gressive campaign methods and
policies and select a proper
candidate in 1854, Negroes will
vote for our candidates in the
District, as they will elsewhere
IF the Republican Party does
not succeed in winning the Ne
gro vote. it will be the party's
fault and not the fault of the
Negro citizens"
That is the task for the Re-
publican Party in Washington
and it is a formidable one.
For if for years the Negro
voted the party of Lincoln and
more recently the party of
Roosevelt, today he appears
likely to vote the party of
Kennedy.

favored by roughly 10 per cent.
In the highest Negro economic
and social levels, the vote is
more difficult to assess; there
is more of a "wait-and-see" at
titude. But here, too, most who
express a firm opinion say they
are inclined toward the Demo-
Gratis.
This Is not to say that the
pattern could not change be-
fore November of 1864. At this
point, though. Washington Ne
groes are heavily Democratic.
One reason is the enormous
personal appeal of President
Kennedy.
Most Of the Negroes are in
love with the Kennedys, In
cluding Caroline and that
baby" a successful Negro busi-
neSSman said.
"You must understand that
Negroes are more impressed
with a warm personality than
with party ideals. The Negro is
not sophisticated politically,
and party principles escape
him.
I'VE don't have any deep
rooted political attachments.
It's mainly superficial. But if
there is a preference, it's for
the Democrats. Remember that
our people are emotional and if
a man touches their heart he's
won them for always"
Roosevelt Hero
In this century, the man who
most successfully touched the
hearts Of Negroes was Franklin
D. Roosevelt.
Now in home after home Ne
groes will tell you that every
time they see Mr.. Kennedy
they think Of President Roose-
velt-"who did more for our
race than anyone else"
Here is the story in the
Negro's own words.
Take the average poor, he's
going to vote for the man
who does something for him."
a retired Government worker
who lives in Southeast said,
Now you take back in Mr..
Roosevelt's time. He did some
thing for the poor man never
done before in the history of
the world, and he's dead and
they're still talking about him.
"The Republican Party never
did much for the poor man.
Now take Mr.. Kennedy.
think he's going to make a
wonderful President. He has
feeling for the poor people. He
knows you can't live on grass
seed"
A housewife and two men
from her neighborhood in
Northwest Washington:
1--WE been a Democrat all
my life," she says.
"The money floats better
when the Democrats are in
and I think they help the
Negroes more" one man says.
Evening star., 1961-06-02

Look at Roosevelt" the
other man says:
"Oh, therell never be
another like him, but maybe
Kennedy. = :" the woman
comments.
Kennedy Lauded
A man who lives in North
east: ..
II would be a Democrat, of
course. I don't think ] made
a dollar a day until President
Roosevelt got in the chair, so
I'd definitely be a Democrat.
Il think President Ken
nedy's going to make a Won
derful President. Every time I
see him I think about PreSi-
dent Roosevelt. I think he has
the makingS of a great man."
A housewife in Southeast:
II thank President Roose-
Velt in his grave cause he
started so many things that
are still going on. Now Mr..
Kennedy, I read in the paper
that he's one of the richest
men ever to be President.
Then he talks so good about
helping the whole world. So I
guess he's really helping hu-
manity. He's sure not there
for the money" ,
Aside from personalities,
Negroes express the opinion
that the Democrats are for the
poor and the Republicans for
the rich. Since many Negroes
are poor, their choice is evi-
dent.
Impact of Food Plan
Even though the Negro may
have little formal education,
he knows quite we'll what the
parties are doing to help him
or what they are failing to
do. Often the Negro in the low
est income category shows a
shrewd-and in some cases
even sophiSticated-grasp of
political realities.
When President Kennedy on
his first day in office an
nounced an increase in dis
tribution of Government sur
plus food for the needy, his
action had a wide impact on
the Negro community in Wash
ington.
The first thing he did was
for the poor man." a laborer
said. THAT surplus food, ]
think that's one of the best
programs. All that food being
thrown away is doing nobody
no good. That stored food they
throw it away and sink it in
the Atlantic or the Pacific and
I know the fish got to be fed
but we need it more. It's going
to be good for us poor people.
Under the Republicans I've
seen bread lines and bonus
marchers and much suffering
Under the Democrats I've seen
much Improvement"

ident Kennedy is personal
