S. Naval academy as an officer next June. Wesley A Brown, 21-year-old native of Baltimore, Is In his last year at the acad¬ emy and is still fighting to make the final grade despite the barriers confronting him. Brown, the cniy one of six Negro candidates for officership to reach the last lap of thp course, came to the academy as a plebe ^n 1*'45, after taking first place in a competitive ex¬ amination for one of the ap¬ pointments allowed Congress¬ man Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., of New York. He was select¬ ed over 15 others. For three years, academy au¬ thorities have been keeping Brown out of the public eye, but recently Rear Adm. James L Holloway, Jr., agreed to let) the public have a look at the potential young officer in his last days at the academy. When consenting to an in¬ terview with Brown, the admir¬ al paid the student officer a compliment by sayintg, “Wesley Brown has conducted himself in an exemplary manner., He succeeded he(re because he is intellectually qualified and has a most excellent character. Brown told reporters that he had spent a year in the army specialized training program, the engineering course at Howard, but preferred the said he was “sold” on| military life. In high school he was an acting cadet commander, which led to his desire to eliter West Point or A/nnapolis. While working in the navy depart¬ ment in the afternoons and evenings, he decided he want¬ ed to join the navy. Born April 3, 1927, he was educated at Garrison elemen¬ tary, Shaw junior and Dunbar senior high schools in Wash¬ ington..

Now, it is an undeniable principle oi the democratic system that bloc voting is dele¬ terious because it substitutes class or race or, religion for the Individual judgment of the voter as to issues and the character oi the candidates. But bloc voting is an expression of -deep- seat d human nature and it cannot be changed by denouncement or by statute. The “Solid South” provides the simplest and at the same time the most striking ex¬ ample of bloc voting. In the bittfcr years of Reconstruction, the South became a bloc lor reasons which were not only understandable but were valid. The Republican party ol Thad Stevens and his disciples hated the South. Yet, 30-odd year after Appomattox, when Thad Stevens was a-mouldering in lhs grave and Reconstruction was only an un¬ happy memory, the South continued to vote in a bloc in the national elections. It was solid for William Jennings Bryan— and also for Alton Parker; it was solid for Woodrow Wilson and also for John W Da¬ vis. And everything Parker stood for was as precisely opposite to what Bryan stood for as Davis was the very antipode oi Wilson- Not until 63 years alter Appomattox was the solidarity of tlv* Southern bloc broken. This momentary chipping off was accom¬ plished by a bloc within the South a bloc that hated or feared the Roman Catholic church and provided the balance of power to defeat A1 Smith in Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas. It may be that the South now is well on the road to dissolution of its solidarity. It may be the end has come to its unquestion¬ ing, blind adherence to the name Democratic party and that its voters will cast ballots based on individual Judgment oi candidates and belief in ths issues. I-f so, it is the accomplishment, not of preachment, nor of statute, but of normal evolution. You cannot legislate against the Political Action Committal nor the members of the CIO if they obey the human impulse to vote for or against candidates on the recom¬ mendation and advice or their leaders. You cannot by statute prevent Negroes from vot¬ ing for those candidates whom they believe Held at the University of Dame, the four-day con¬ was attended by 3,600 delegates represent!!!., units in thousands of communities.

There are to be had from incidents which occurred a few days ago in Vienna, Dooly county, certain very practical illustrations of the situation facing Georgia. We take the facts from The Vienna News, owned by that forthwith and courageous young editor, C. M Mnthvin, Jr. On the eve o! election crosses were burned in the Negro section of Vienna, just as they were burned in many another Georgia community. Editor Methvin writes: “We are proud of tbn fact that the Ne¬ groes of our community showed the courage to go to the polls by an esti¬ mated two-thirds of the registered number. “It has been gratifying to learn of the large number of white citizens, includ¬ ing many of our local officials, who encouraged them to do so, with the as¬ surance that they would be protected on election day and thereafter. “It speaks well for our community that our Negro citizenry has in the past received treatment In the matter of vot¬ ing and in other interracial relation¬ ships which gave them faith in their white friends ai|d courage to meet the threat of the hoodlums who planted the crosses.” Editor Mrthvin—Georgia-born and bred— knows as does every other Georgian that intimidation, denunciation and the fomen¬ tation of hatreds by political demagogues only increase the solidarity of classes, races and sects against which they are aimed. And it follows that the one practical way to dissolve the Negro vote from a bloc into individual action is to cease to abuse or threaten the Negro and give him the hand of friendship such as that 'extended by the whites of Vienna., Editor Methvin puts the thought even bet¬ ter in his concluding paragraph: “The sooner we in the South learn to quit seeking to win elections by light¬ ing and seek ' crosses, • ing crosses, and concentrate on seeking to have an enlightened electorate, black and white, the sooner we shall assure the future of our democracy. Meanwhile, it is to be hoped that more of the bet¬ ter element of white people in the county will exhibit their courage by openly combatting the bullying tactics which threaten the safety and freedom of us all.” and unjust practices against Negroes are based fundamen¬ tally upon ignorance of the history of this group of Ameri¬ cans and a lack of regard for the Christian ideals which de¬ mand recognition of the God- given rights of all human be¬ ings,” the resolution put the CSMC on record as recom¬ PAGE SEVEN the continued general of the history of Ameri¬ Negroes in each area where CSMC has a unit with the of helping to remedy un¬ conditions.
