SENATOR SMITH'S
ANN F L L PiCTL RE
Senator Smith of South Caro
iina ;s opposed to President Roosevelt';
Supreme Court reformation
With that we think?the Senatoi
is or solid ground, but for decidedly
different reasons, in fact, if
trhe reason given by the Senator
is the real reason for his opposition,
it would be better fAr him
to be with the President for it is
apparent that he is guided by his
emotions and not what one would
expect from a mature statesman.
Spea'-ing of the President's plan,
the ?. r.ator writes a friend: "If
this thing passes, the packing of
the Supreme Court, then, whatnuni*
i Vro T'vncirloMf U?
done. The anti-lynching bill will
pass and bo declared constitutional.
The old civic rights' bill, that
Thaddeus Stephens lead jv.ssed,
and \vh:ch J.he Supreme Court declared
unconstitutional, will be revived,
and the Negroes will demand
the right to attend white
schools, seats in the theaters, in
a whole, every civil right that the
whites enjoy regardless of state
lines. It is the most dangerous
QI li JPJ. Mi < '?.1 :' 1i ***
thing', that has ever occured." ' I
Of course, the picture etched by
I the Senator is tine for rabble-raisng
but it won't bear the analysis
of cold logic. But who cares
or logic when lambasting the Negro?
It maybe that the Senator
was thinking more of his campaign
for re-election next year
than of' the President's Supreme
Couit plan. We do not think howevtr
that he will be able to hide
the picture of the President, with
whom it is i^tty well known he
is not too much in love, with a
~ "picture of the - "terrible" Negro.
) JUDGE IIAjSTIE
, Wt; .shrnild say Federal Judge
, W. 11. llastie. lie was confirmed
by the U. S. Senate last week to
be the. Federal judge in the Virgin
Islands. Judge II as tie is the
th>t-_xolored jiu?n to attain the
> exalted position of a federal judge
~ and too he is one" of the youngest
i such judge, being only d2 years of
age. Mr. llastie by training is
well fitted for the position, having
received his education at Amherst
