MORE MORAL HAZZARDS
Some months ago the people of this
eitv expressed themselves as earnestly and
unmistakably against all practices in the
communitv which were damaging to
lie morals The emphasis at the time was
nlacw! placed on on ridding ridding tne the city cny of boledo, ,

feeling that too many such places are lo-

crime among Negroes, will be
ed by the records of the police court. A
man was shot very recently at one of
places, and at this writing the culprit has
not been apprehended. At almost any
time during any day, a casual stroll
West Broad will reveal that boys and girls
frequent these places at will.
Now, the incident which provokes this
editorial, occurred on Thursday of
week, and it came at the time when
citizens were calling attention to the
fortunate conditions at their high
due to serious over-crowding. At a
parlor and liquor store, at the corner
West Broad and Henry streets, where
dents from the high school congregate,
fight took place between a sailor and some
of the students. The sailor was so badly
beaten he had to be taker! away in an
bulance. The owner of this place permits
these children to come into his place and
drink. Two boys were taken away from
this place, the same day, thoroughly soak¬
ed. Now, there is only one sure remedy
this situation: close this place or revoke
the 'lT rrr license. Neither 1 TiUnnt'vr parents nor teach-

site corners of West Broad and Henry
streets are moral menaces and negate the
the citizenship which the high school
tempts to inculcate: they operate against
the purposes for which the state spends
its money. We believe the new adminis¬
tration will take the necessary steps to
abate the evil, these places present.

IXTY-THIRD ANNIVERSARY
CELEBRATION
Last Thursday night Prince
all Lodge No. 28 celebrated
6 63d anniversary A good-
' number of the members
as^present, also visitors- The
a»gram was v. til prepared
cessful effort to subjugate the world. By
virtue of their participation in this war
against aggression, and for the preserva¬
tion of human liberty; by virtue of their
heroic participation in every war this
country has fought, Negroes have won
their title to Americanism as their birth¬
right, much as they have to fight to main¬
tain it. It should disturb the American
conscience, as it indeed does disturb the
conscience of some of them, that Negroes
are compelled to wage an everlasting fight
to secure the most elemental rights in their
native home. At this very moment right
here in Georgia, Negroes are witnessing
the spectacle of lawmakers, sworn to up-
hold the constitution of the United States,
t bending every nerve and effort to deprive
of the right to help select those who
govern them. Nobody has given a valid
( reason why they should not vote. To say
(that Negroes should not be allowed to vote
because they vote en bloc, is inept.
It is unreasonable to expect them to do
otherwise, so long as they are the issue in
politics in the South. Whether on the
state or national level, southerners oppose
lany 'welfare thing which they feel will advance the anti- the
of Negroes. They oppose

TOLERANCE IS NOT ENOUGH
(Brotherhood Week Feb. 16-23, 1947)
By Ruth Taylor
We talk about tolerance today as though
it were a great virtue. We prate of being
“tolerant” people. We lecture about it,
and write books and articles and feel ex¬
cessively proud of ourselves for our “tol¬
erant” attitude towards others.
But' tolerance is not enough. It is nega¬
tive in its virtue and far too often carries
with it a Pharisaical condescension which
is utterly foreign to the American way of
life. According to the dictionary “to toi-
erate” is “to suffer to be or be done with
out Active opposition;” “tolerant” is “of a
lunjr suffering disposition,” and “tolera¬
not ^ wholly approved. ^ wWch Ls
Surely that is not what we mean when
we talk of tolerance. Nor is it what we
desire. There is no room for mere toler¬
ance of one another, or of any group, in a
democracy where the ideal set forth in our
governmental credo is that “all men
created equal.”
.... ^ , , , <lay , . toleration
ia \ v e mv< t0 is not

ween many groups races.
nationalities and creeds which go to make
up this America of ours—but a spirit of
understanding, a knowledge of the good
and the beauty and the wisdom each group
contributes to the common whole. What
we need today is mutual understanding.
“To understand,” according to the diction¬
ary, is "to comprehend the relation of
things, to know through information.”
And one of the definitions of “understand¬
ing” is “possessing comprehension and
good sense.”
Mutual understanding means mutual
trust—the belief in and knowledge of each
other that is the great unifying force
which can weld us into a nation invincible
to attack from without because it immu¬
nizes us to attack from within. The
menace we need to fear most is that cre¬
ated by our own racial and religious preju-
idices, often held unconsciously, but far
too apt to break out at the wrong moment
—and to destroy our ability to think
ly and to judge wisely.

Conference
The Southern Negro Youth
Congress announced today that
an emergency conference of
members and friends would be
held February 28-29. inclusive,
at + the Butler .tree c+root hranGh nf i
the YMCA, Atlanta. The an-
nounced purpose of the
ence at this time is to
voune you g neonle pe p together g to
cuss the effect passage of a
white primary bill will htave on
their future citizenship status
and to plan some concrete
•tion they might take in tl:.m
own community to circumvent
it- A call to the conference
will be sent to sections of Geor-
, f , H t
In commenting on the
sage of the bill, Arthur G.
Price, special projects director,
Southern Negro Youth Con-
gress, says “this bJl will not
alone effect the future and the
destiny of the Negro in Geor-
gia and that is not what it was
designed for, but will
retard . the i - general « progress of i'
those interested in a real de¬
mocracy and be a tool used to
divide white and black from
political collective action. Many
who see that Negro and white
have recognized the common
advantage of voting collectively
to support candidates who
pledge themselves to progres¬
sive government are interested
in dividing this vote and thu;
alienating the strong Negro
vote which when coupled with
others has considerable weight
He further stated that thn
open conspiracy of pitting race
against race and slandering
tlie integrity of the Negro peo¬
ple was in his opinion the
greatest threat to national se¬
curity and the building of i
generation of youth ^dedicated
to the fulfillment of democra¬
cy's promises of jobs, peace ana
security- When asked did he
think it expedient to call such
a conference now, Mr. Price
said, “I believe we must do it
because it is the right thing
to do.” The price of freedom
and respect is not at all times
doing the expedient thing, but
i rather doing what can and
nruit be done- I have never
read where Jesus, in His teach¬
ings urged such caution nor
meekness, but I have read
where he said, “By Your Deeds
Shalt Ye Be Judged.” I fur¬
ther feel that it is necessary
for all of us to follow this say
ing. To Thine Ownaelf be True

then I despair you- To be tru'

ON WHITE PRIMARY
Atlanta, Georgia,

The Special judiciary Com¬
mittee,
State Senate, Capitol Bldg.,
j Atlanta, Georgia.
My dear Sirs:
In a letter February 4, 1947,
signed by Mr. Robert E. Knox,.
; Secretary of the Special Judi-
clary Committee, I was inlorm- ,
ed that your hearings on the j
White Primary Bill would be
limited to white citizens- I am,
Iherefore, respectfully register-
ing, in writing, my protest
against the passage of the,
White Primary Bill by the
Georgia State Senate. j
I Was born in Georgia and !
am proud to be one of her
more than one million Negro 1
citizens who have helped to!
promote the welfare of our
great state 1
This proposed White Primary''
Bill is unfair and unjust for
the simple reason that its alms
and purpose is . to . d .. sfranchise .____, . „

of gatives Georgia. of the Such Negro e'iort cit.zcnsj is

Amendment to the United
States constitution, which
specifically provides that a cit-
be izen’s denied right to abridged vote shall because notj 1

law, will most certainly abridge.
the Negroes’ right to vote hij
Georgia. Such an abridge-.
ment of our constitutional I |
right appears to me to be both
wrong and illegal-
Proponentf of the bill say it
is only a Pxmary Election, and
that Negroes might have a
primary themselves, or vote in
Election themselves, or vote in
the General Election- In Geor-
g.a, this White Primary Law
would be an (abridgement of
our right to vote as citizens,
| The reason would be due to the
fact that approximately two
million citizens of our state
are white and one million are
black. What chance would the
minority group have to voice
their political opinion against
the 66 per cent vot.ng as a sep-
arate unit? How would the
same method appear to you if
reversed Suppose two million
were black and one million
were white would you think it
fair for the two million blacks
to have a Negro Primary Elec-
tion Most certainly not-
This bill is unfair, and as I
see it, unconstitutional. A fed-
eral court decision, three or
four years ago, in a case
brought up from Louisiana,
pleading Primary Election priv-
ileges, stated in substance that
whenever a primary election is
a necessary step in the choice
of the candidate for the final
election, it is tantamount to
the final election and must
so considered. As I remember,
that was the thought if not
the exact words.
It is wrong to collect taxes
from Negro citizens and then
seek to deny them the
of their franchise.
without representation was
wrong in 1776 and is wrong in
the Year of Our Lord 13i7-
Time does not change the prin¬
ciple involved.
Gentlemen, Georgia is our
native „ .. state, ... too. T I love Geor-
g.a and have chosen to live
and die here in spite of racial
injustices and limitations often
imposed upon me. As
citizens we feel that we have
paid rvniu m in full .he price for —■. .he
right to enjoy equal

one, I call your attention to
the fact that Negroes have \a-
bored in rice fields, cotton
plantation.!, f!a lroad s, an
forests and along mountain
sides helping to make Georgia
and America what they are to-
day. Negro labor has become
known the world over by the
way in which it has helped to
build America. This contribu-
ton was made for 215 years
under a system of bondage
without pay and for the past 80
y eiars on little wages,

During the Civil War, Negroes
