applications and to give per-
mission for the use of any pub

Dean Griswold, testifying on be-
half Of the Civil Rights Commits
sion, has stated before this Sub
committee that In a country in
one State for example, a Federal
district judge found that six Negro
applicants 1.-TWO with masters de-
grees, five with bachelors degrees,
and one with a year of college
training) suffered racial denials Of
the right to vote on the spacious
ground that they could not read
intelligibly or write sections of the
State Constitution"
"Mr. Chairman, I have through
out my public career been an out
spoken advocate of legislation to
bring to an end discriminatory
practices against our fellow Negro
Americans. Our treatment of Ne
groes has been a terrible blight
on the nations conscience. We
cannot rest easy, we cannot have
a clear conscience until the last
vestiges of discrimination are a
thing of the past.
I'm our efforts to bring an end
to second-class citizenship, there
lis no more important area than
voting. This gets to the very heart
of the matter. And this fact is
recognized full well by those on
both sides Of the pending legisla-
ton.
In a democracy the citizens
power lies in the ballot. When a
person is barred from going to the
polls on election day, he is denied
his right as a citizen, as a men,
Der of the body polite.
And so I respectfully and ferv-
antly urge this Subcommittee to
take favorable action on the mod
est and reasonable proposals pend
ing before it. In so doing this
Subcommittee will be rendering a
great service to our country and
to democracy. It will be restifying
a wrong that should have been
corrected long ago"

made the following statement to
the Constitutional Rights Sub
committee of the Senate Commit
tee on the Judiciary:
Mr.. Chairman, I want to thank
you for affording me this oppor-
tunity to testify in support of leg
islation to put an end to abuses
by certain states Of literacy test
requirements for prospective vot-
ers.
Il am proud to be joined as a
co-sponsor of this legislation, s.
480 and S. 2979. am confident
that this Congress will act in this
area so that countless numbers Of
our fellow citizens who are now
denied the right to vote because
of the color of their skin will for
the first time have the privilege
of exercising that most precious
of all rights in a democracy-the
right to vote on election day.
"At the time our Constitution
was adopted in 1889, none of the
original States required a literacy
test or any other educational quail
ification as a prerequisite for reg
istering to vote. Today, with the
lowest rate of illiteracy in our
history, with our compulsory
school attendance laws, with radio
and television convenient to all
of us, there Is much less need for
such a task than ever before.
THE bills before this Subcom-
mittee are modest indeed. They do
not abolish Iteracy requirements
as the Civil Rights Commission
first recommended. All they do Is
prescribe an objective means of
discovering whether a prospective
elector is iterate, in place Of sub
jective methods which can be, and
are, severely abused. These bills
Include a perfectly justified legis-
lative finding that a person with
sixth grade education Is able to
read and write.
There are two definitions Of the
word Iiterate' One definition is
pertaining to or learned in ntera-
ture," and the other is lone who
can read and write" I do not be-
lieve that anyone would deny that
the latter definition Is the one
contemplated by those States
which require literate electorate.
Unfortunately, however, there are
many cases in which the first def
milton has been applied-many
citizens have been expected to
demonstrate a knowledge of con-
stitutional law which only pro-
fessor could be expected to possess.
The bills under consideration can
effectively control this problem. I
feel sure that anyone who has
completed six grades In an ac-
credited school in this country can
read and write, and those who
have not may still be required to
take a test to determine nteracy.
In my opinion. this legislation
would be necessary even If there
was no evidence Of discrimination
in the application Of the tests, for
a strong democracy requires the
most liberal rules Of suffrage.
Every individual Is guaranteed
first-class citizenship in a true
democracy; and when someone Is
denied that most basic right Of all
the right to vote-either by law
or by Interpretation Of the law, he
becomes a second-class citizen.
And literacy tests have been and
are being used, for the most part,
as a subtle ortifice to keep Ne
.groes off the registration books
and even to remove Negroes from
the books who were already regis
tered. According to the Civil
Rights Commission, which was In
stituted to investigate and advise

Sights in Prague

Prague is a city with a ], 800
year history. Two of the most
famous sights in this city are
st. Vitus Cathedral and the Old
Jewish Synagogue II the oldest
synagogue in Europe.
Our knowledgeable CED0K
guide took us around the city
on our first day in Prague and
told US the history of many Of
the wonders of that city like the
Charles Bridge, "a medieval en-
cheering miracle), Prague
Castle, now the residence of the
Presidents of Czechoslovakia,
and the world-famed Praha
Restaurant, winner of the
Grand Prix in Brussels.
Cost of Stay
Czechoslovakia is one Of the
most inexpensive countries in
the world for the American
tourist. For example, a five-day
stay at a deluxe hotel costs on
ly $60-including three meals a
day. Accommodations are COM
Portable if not luxurious. Food
and entertainment are very
cheap and very good. For ex-
ample, the Alhambra, the best
night club in Prague averages
about $500 per person for
drinks-and it features one Of
the best floor shows in Europe.
You might want to brush up on
your Charleston if you go to
Prague. That Roaring eos spe-
cialty is very popular there.
Since Prague is in the center
Of Europe, you can start your
journey there and then continue
on to London or Paris, the
Mediterranean or Greece and
Turkey - hours away.
