Hi.- observations contain much that-is true in the ?Pert?-n-e -*4 ? some ?>." the conclusions are punk, especially those as to the Negro of the Potjth. As for an instance this: "Yea. we must assume from their behavior that southern Negroes favor separate, inadequate and inferior school facilities; that they believe in lower salaries for Negro teachers; that they approve of Negro children walking to school while white children ride in comfortable busses; that they look 1 indulgently upon lack of sewers and paving and consider taxation without representation desirable, j Hearing virtually, no protest against. these conditions.. except " from the North; hearing no de- [ mnod made save by an occasional 'nadir il' or 'crazy'* Negro whom ! the 'aesps usually ignore, and I hrarh.g of the existence of no ad* erua4 machinery anywhCsre ih Dixie intelligently and persistent- j ly pressing for equal rights through the courts or public opinion: '"he bchaviorist must conclude ' that the Negroes are satisfied 1 v/ith things as they are." 1 Not there are many ways of dealii g with conditions. Perhaps the ''"oehaviorist" thinks that hist1 way is the only way in which J prohl ms along this line should be i dealt with. .

The distinguished writer say's j also that "although it is possible 1 for Negroes to register and vote j in many places in the South. ! 'leaders' wage few, if any, cam- I paigns to induce them to do so. I And only a handful heed such admonitions." That is a half tfuth. But Mr. Sthuvler seems not to know that the voting Negroes can i do is in the general eloetion, while the choice of officers is really made in the so-called primaries from j which the .Negro is rigidly bil!'!'ed. The general eVction. is a mere formality. There are no southern states where Negroes can vote as other American citizens..: free and unrestricted, save Tennessee and Kentucky.
