This applies to areas throughout the nation where there are large concentrations of these “language minority” citizens. The areas would re quired to print ballots and other election materials in two languages. Areas where there has been severe discrimination, such as outright intimidation and laws designed to dilute minority voting power, would be subject to the remedies now available to Blacks in the seven southern states. 4 Private citizens would be authorized to file suits in federal courts against violations of their voting rights.

Streeter stated that she was in the K-Mart flower shop when a young female approached her and started up a conversation. She stated that the young lady became very friendly and offered to help her take her flowers to her car. While the two women were walking toward tLe car, another young lady approached them with an envelope in her hand and asked if either had dropped the envelope in the store. Both replied that they had not and then the lady with the envelope opened it. Miss Streeter said that she and the other lady were led to believe that there was $31,000.00 in bills and a SIO,OOO negotiable bond in it. The lady with the envelope stated that she worked for a bank as a messenger and that she would go to the bank to see if anyone had lost the money. The ladies agreed to wait for her until she returned from the bank. When she did, she told them that she had talked with the president of the bank and had shown him the money. She reported that the bank president told her it was gambling money and that it was a familiar practice for a gambler to drop money and have a pick up man come Good Neighbor Hedges Peeping Tom An Augusta woman received a call from a neighbor that a peeping tom was standing at her house looking inside. She called the sheriff’s department and while she was waiting for the deputies to arrive the peeping tom ripped immediately behind him jb picking it up. The president wanted to take the money and put it in a bank deposit box for safe keeping; and said that he would pay each of them a $9,000 dollar reward for turning the money in. The female with the envelope offered to handle the transaction for the group so that the others would not have to take any risks. This lady suggested that the others put $6,000.00 each in a kitty as a gesture of good faith and honesty. The slim flam artist led the others to believe that she had withdrawn $6,000 dollars from her bank account for them to hold as good faith money and to show that she was honest. All three agreed to the arrangement and left for the First National Bank where Miss Streeter after realizing she had made a mistake in her account withdrew $4,000, receiving the money in small bills. The three women then decided to eat lunch at McDonalds before sending the bank messenger for the reward money. They ate lunch, then the woman with the envelope full of their money went to get another hamburger, but never returned. The other friendly female then went to look for the one who left, leaving the victim $4,000 poorer never to see her money again. off the screen to the window. As the man was about-ready to make his bold entrance, a police car arrived saving Miss Watkins from a less than happy fate and causing the intruder to dive into a bunch of hedges.
