? POLITICAL C.\MI?AI<;N
SI'I'PORTERS j
Only registered citizens"ajf th'e
state and United States can be <
ol' service in.the November elect- ,
ion when the country goes to the )
polls to vote for president and vice
president. It is painful to think ,
of the large number of Negro ]
people who live among us and never
think about nor try to get theii c
registration certificates. Many of *
these loud talking vertabrates go
from house to house ridiculing th?,
party in power, or trying by ,
> word of mouth to hinder the party (
seeking .leadership from succeed-. .
ing. It's all bosh. Only registered
voters are citizens who count in
rimw hw thov white or col
oredT i
Howe\ er, there Is a task that
every citizen can perform in help- (
ing Americans choose the right <
every American can contribute ,
to the campaign fund regardless |
of color. It takes money to run a :
campaign and to win elections
Negro Americans in South* rn t
states should subscribe to the cam
patgn tuiui ot his cnojce ana snow
the country that we arc interested
in America's political and economic (
safety. Yes, Negroes should sub
scribe!
Ol'R SOUTHERN FRIENDS t
The 16th of October is the date 1
set for the draft whereby millions c
of young men from every state in <
the union and from the islands u
will be called upon to register fot '
military duties and training,? c
In the conscription there will
be hundreds and thousands ol <
young Negfloes from all ranks of I
life and professions among our i
people; i
In the conscription for this great o
army will be needed many draft C
boards to handle the registration s
of the new army men. It is no s
more than right?no more than 0
the American square deal put into f
action to have competent Negroes t
placed on the draft boards. We
should like to see this done in the
South and suggested for consider- '
ation^ by our Southern friends. I
Governor Hoey of North Carolina
shares the same opinion. We quote
a few paragraphs Trmn his ad d
dress which was released from Ra t
leigh last Monday night: i
Governor Hoey, in a statement t
tonight urging North Carolinians
to cooperate "with characteristic !i
patriotism" in the draft registra h
tion on October 16, said that Neg p
roes possibly should be appointed b
to certain draft boards. p
"Consideration should ... be giv- t,
en tc the wisdom of providing rep- n
resentation on the draft board P
of the Negro race in counties 1
where there is a large Negro pop- P
ulation and where worthy repre- ti
<entatives $f that race can be pro- A
cured to serve," he said. II
"About 29 pe^ cent of the pop ti
ulation of this state is composed p
of Negroes, and the .selective ser (
vice act applies to them equally p
with the white race, and they have \
always shown a patriotic upirit in A
all war service. | T
"This should be wisely and fair tl

determined by the local com q
ittee in each county."
The governor asserted that no
rd member should be sole ,tod ,
?cnuse of political or religious
"filiations, but added:
"Wherever feasible it would
robably make for more satisfae.

e draft act if the two major uo _
