YARBOROUGH STUDIO and CAMERA SHOP Corner Mangrove and Pitts Streets CAMERAS — FILMS — PHOTO FINISHING SENATOR| ■STRO URMOND The Art of Oadaeioa The President’s address to Congress and the nation, on the evening of March 15, 1965, de serves the thoughtful" examina tion and evaluation of every American. The course he set for the Government may well deter mine the fate of the nation. The President told the nation that the denial of voting rights to Negro citisens in Selma, Ala bama, had demonstrated the need for a new law. The President did not tell the nation that oa February 4, 1965, a Federal Court, acting under the Civil Rights Acts of 19M and.1964, had made it possible for all Negroes who could read sad writs in Dallas County, in which Selma is located, to regis ter sad vote fa the next election, and that the court border pro vided that the Federal voting referee, already appointed by the court, would register all who wanted to register and ware not registered by Jnly, 1965. The President told the nation that present law could not se cure the ballot for Negro citi zens. The President did not toll the nation that fa Selma, Alabama, itoelf, the right to vote in the next election had already been insured under existing law for all Negroes who could read and write. He did not toll the nation that there are already 16 Fed eral laws, 6 criminal and 10 civil, •B the books to protect voting righto, including laws to protect voting rights of minorities en acted fa 1957, fa 1960, and in 1964. He did not toll the nation that the Civil Righto Act of 1960 already provides for die ap pointment of Federal voting r The President told the nation that the only way for a person to qualify to register to vote in Alabama was to present s M white” face. ; The President did not toll the nation that there are already llOjBOO Negroes registered to vote fa Alabama, more than 20% of the vote east fa the 1900 Presidential election. The President told the nation timt his proposed faw would strike down State literacy ro- quiremente for voters. The President did not toUtho nation that as fate ns 1909 the Supremo Court, itself, upheld the constitutional power of too States to impose literacy re- qsirsmento for voters. The President told the nation fast the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution prohibited too denial of the right to vote because of race, color, or previ ous esntoinn of seultudo. tin Presideat Si not toll Article I, Section 2 of the Con stitution provides that those who may vote to elect Members of the U. S. Boose of Representa tives are those who “shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of- the State Legisla ture,” or that this exact lan guage is used agate in the Seventeenth Amendment, which provides who shall be eligible to vote in eleeticos of Senators. The President told the nation that Congress had the right to pass legislation enforcing the Fifteenth Amendment The President did not tell the nation that the Fifteenth Amend ment did not repeal the constitu tional right of the people of each State to establish qualifications for voting, and that any law passed by Congress purporting to supersede those qualifications, as does the law proposed by the President, is patently unconsti- tutionaL The President told the nation that people have a right to demonstrate and that he would use the full power of the Na tional Government to protect that right. The President did not tell the nation that although all Negroes fa Salma, Alabama, who could read and write were already In sured of too right to vote, that thousands of people from all over the country, fad by aa out sider, had conducted mass pub lic demonstrations for over eight weeks, completely dfaruptfag the affairs of peaceful and law-abid ing citisens. He did not tell the tMU the agitation was by Us leader primarily to fadnee violence, which would fa turn provide headlines and aumey-raising potential across the country, and nut to secure toe right to vote. The President told the nation that his legislation would over ride State eligibility require ments wherever 50% of eligible voters are not registered to vote or did not vote. The President did not toUtho nation that his voting faw for mate fa so drawn that U would apply to the entirety of 6 States, 5 of which Jort happen to have east their electoral votes against him fa the eleetteu last fall, and fa souse of which, soeh as South Carotfaa, there have been no rcatrietkms and no complaints whatever against registration and voting if say qualified fa by toe t OPPOSB the denial of the right to vole to any qualified eftfaen, but I oppose jrfst as adamantly any attempted power grab by the President and Con- which defies the Constl- «ad I aifase most of all fan farina by too Govern- t to lawtoas mob rule and If Oa to SmII Leu i BIGGEST SELECTION OF QUALITY MEATS IN TOWN! tSPSSfP I SLICED BACON - 49 PICNIC 4 b 6 Posri Avwagt 5 CRACKIN' GOOD CAN BISCUITS ^ 39 W-D FRESH PAC MILD CHEESE - 49 W-D U.
