ion Judge Parker would probably have
been confirmed. The N. A. [ A. C. J'.
* feels that the Parker fight is a ci nching
blow to the Hoover Administration
policy by which it was sought .to
build up the Republican party in the
south through offering sops to "lily? -
white" or. in olain words. anti-Negro
Republicans. Further than this the
:r^^w*ocia^?n feels jhat-a?Umg?step has.
been~taI;eiT~Trr-?uUlu^ing th?" Negro's
national fight for fh7Tr~reTTigmti''n n
a citizen, and as a voter. A statement
issued by the N. A.- A. C. I*, covering
the present situation, ..signed I>.v \Val
ter White, acting secretary, is. as follows:
-~t~
"The~N. A. A. C. P. is proud of the
; -way colored people throughout the
- United States met the-critical moment
and acted as a unit. With few and
conspicuous exceptions, even in the
1 south and under serious .difficulties,
colored people stood firm against the
tnan who had advocated in 1920 virThe
result of the fight, a victory, in
the Senate and a clear-cut defeat of
. the Hoover Administration is the most
significant political demonstration, the
American Negro has ever engaged in.
"We are to colored
editors, and ta all those organizations
and individuals wRbstTTirelessly
ancLfaithfully upheld our hands
throughout this gruelling contest. Rut
the victory, decisive ttvbugti |t if,
leaves much to be done. In reality
this victory is only a beginning. First
of all, colored citizens have before
tliery the task of thanking their many
friends and dealing with their .op"fro?1:
nentS^'H* ?*
"Negroes have already shown sou':4hem
demagogs \vith national ambitions
that it nd longer pays to. bait'
the Negro for political purposes. They
have also showfi the nation that the
Negro can carry on u successful, sus,
. . tained, uncompromising political light
and keep it on the highest ethical
plane, in defense of citizenship ami
human rights.?It remayi* to ik?
nionstrate that colored people1 have
a political memory." In- thbi connection,
and~ToivttTe intWnratirrrr-Trf" mB
colored editors and their readers the
' y- N. 'A.'A. C. P. .declared the following

"Any Negro i^ a traitor to the race
~ who yptes for'amy Senator, who vot .

"I^efc us not forget the vote on Parker
