to do away with cross-filing, the sys-

But the State Bar Committee on

Now that a U. S. Court of Appeals has ruled that Negroes
may be barred from restaurants in the District of Columbia,
President Eisenhower has a shining opportunity to fulfill the
promise he made during the political campaign to do all in his
power to eliminate racial segregation in the District.
The President, not only in order to live up to a campaign
pledge but as a matter of simple decency, should ask Congress
to enact a law guaranteenig the hundreds of thousands of Negro
residents of the District of Columbia the same civil rights
enjoyed by the white population.

Note to right-wing columnists, the Chicago Tribune Scripps-
Howard, the Hearst press and others who try to make people
believe trade unions throw money around freely in political
campaigns: .
The Senate Privileges and Election subcommittee estimates
that $100 million was spent in the 1952 national election. Of
this, less than $250,000 was spent by Labor’s League for Political
Education, the AFL’e political arm—or roughly $1 for every
$400 spent by other groups and individuals.
The figures also should serve as a warning to union members
that more of them should contribute voluntarily to ILPE next
time inasmuch as people opposed to their interests spent the
much greater part of the $100 million.

Even after President Eisenhower’s inaugural address saying
that America would strive to encourage productivity and trade,
there are isolationists who want to put a fence around the
country.
They forget that production overseas helps keep the U. S.
strong. Nearly every industrial product, for instance, requires
industrial diamonds. We do not have diamonds; they come from
South Africa.
Steel, the backbone of our economy, as another instance,
cannot be made without manganese. We do not have enough
manganese; it comes from Africa and India.
The quickest road to surrender to Communist aggression
is to turn a cold shoulder to our friends overseas, particularly at
a time when the domestic sources of raw materials are de-
creasing.
Refuse to help your neighbor and he’ll refuse to help you.
It’s that simple—and in the case of international relations,
disastrously so.
Sen. Taft and Sen. Jenner piously proclaim that they will
support a move to change the Senate rules so that a filibuster
can be halted by a vote of two-thirds of the members actually
present and voting, rather than by two-thirds of the Senate
membership.
The joker is that any attempt to change the rules can itself
be filibustered to death. Taft and Jenner know further that
in 1949 the Senate rejected by a vote of 57 to 29 the very measure
they now put forward, with 2 Senators named Taft and Jenner
voting against it.
How cynical can you get?

The 5 poll tax states can argue themselves blue in the face
in asserting that the levy, as a requirement for voting does not
cut down the number of persons who vote, but the figures are
all against them.
In the 1952 general elections, the percentage of the voting
population who went to the polls in Alabama, Arkansas, Miss-
issippi, Texas, and Virginia varied from 24 to 43. Only 3 other
states came within that range—and the national average was
63 percent.
For that reason, among others, the Congress should act on
the bill sponsored by Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D., Minn.) to
outlaw the poll tax. the disenfranchisement of certain groups
—is bad. Its results are wretched.

One factor forcing such a dual Washington Report.
“AFL Carpenters Donate Mateial,

That was a "page 1 headline bi a
recent issue of the National Chamber
Washington Report, the Washington
paper of the United States Chamber
of Commerce.

tickets in the November election.
It isn’t likely that very many can-
didates who are holding or seeking
office on the Democratic ticket, will
at the very same time announce as
candidates for the Republican nomi-
nation, too. Being cross-filed is one
thing, but going out and declaring
yourself to be a Republican at the
same time you are declaring yourself
to be a Democrat is something only
the most courageous candidates will
be likely to do,at this stage.
The Republicans still have given
no indication that they hope to get
out from under the law which re-
quires them to hold a primary in 1954,
because their candidate for governor,
Allan Shivers, got more than 200,000
votes on tha'GOP ticket in 1952. Al
the officmCOP spokesmen say they
will work to get as many Republicans
as possible to take part in the GOP
primary.
The cost of holding a primary is
worrying the GOP a lot, and well it
should. It’s also worrying the can-
didates for county offices, who each
year pay more for the right to be on
the primary ballot. There is some
talk of having a primary for both
parties at the same time, the voter
getting either the GOP or the Demo-
cratic ballot, as he chooses.
We see no objection to this, if the
State will dip into its till to pay part
of the costs of such a primary. But
we would object violently if the
Democratic county office holders are
going to be charged also for the cost
of holding a Republican primary to
develop a November opponent for
them. The State would do well to
vote a little subsidy for the GOP here
in Texas, to encourage it and fertilize
it. trying to keep it alive and growing.
And financing the primary for both
primary is the voting machine situa-
tion in the larger cities. It looks
like twin primaries will have to be
held in those places, because there
aren’t enough voting machines to
hoKa two primaries at different placoz
on the same day.
Another possible change in the
election laws is the switching of pre-
cinct conventions to a Saturday dif-
ferent from election day. This would
wreck the ad van Lage a precinct
chairman has, when he can run in
all of his election clerks to help him
control the convention.
But-amid and back behind the furor
in Austin over horse racing and tax-
ation and school legislation, there will
be some very smart lawyers from the
Dixiecrat and Republican side of the
