Weekly Summary of Editorials About or Concern ing Negroes from Daily Newspapers Throughout The Country. (Compiled by The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 63 Fifth Avenue, New York, 3, New York) POLITICS. 1- “There is danger that public indifference will be bred of the familiarity with the rabble-rousing ring of Robert R. Reynolds’ call to his new so-called ‘Nationalist’ party. Reynolds, North Carolina’s junior Senator in the last session of Congress, has not displayed the degree of sinister genius that mak es a “Kingfish”. Neither has Gerald L. K. Smith or some other agitators distinguished by their sound and fury. But there is a menace in the sin ister kind of people attractei by the savage prejud ices given play in the dogmas that the rabble rous ers offer. It was on such foundations that Huey Long was building his autocracy when he died, and on which the fascist dictatorships were established in Europe... .Rynolds does not appear to have the talent to disrupt, but he is active to provide what may be a tool ready for a master hand.” (San Francisco Chronicle. January 15, 1945) . 2, “Will the current war be followed by the es tablishment of new political parties in America, or perhaps by the transformation of all but the names of the old ones... .Our present parties are the out come of the Civil war and of the controversies which preceded and followed it. . . .Now we have a Demo cratic party whose core is the Solid South, still vot ing immovably on the race question on which Mr. Roosevelt is now the chief leader, in precept and in enforcement action, on the other side.

None of this, of course, makes sense in terms of today. But the Suth still votesNor is voted—that way, fori reasons which its rulers thought good in their grand fathers’ time. The position of a still dominant ele ment in the Republican official organization makes as little sense, in its repudiation of Republican Presidents, presidential nominees and platforms, and m its oblivion to the present state of the Nation and the world. ” ✓ (San Francisco Chronicle. Jan. 16. 1945. Column by Chester Powell) 3. “So far as we are informed the Reverend Powell, prominent and directing Democrat and Roosevelt New Dealer of New York, who has taken a seat in congress to which he was elected by the New York Democrats, retains his reverend. Some ministers who became political officeholders prefer not to be known as reverend and1 their wishes should be complied with. The Reverend Powell is pastor of the Abyssinian church. He is of the race of Dem oerat Dawson, representative in congress of a Chi cago district. The national Democratic party of Reverend Powell and his ‘race’ comrade from Chi cago are the Democratic comrades of the ‘Regulars’ who carry the election in South Carolina.” (Charleston News and Courier. January 15, 1945). 4. “hrom Look-out to St. Mary’s the shadow of Ole Gene hangs over Georgia’s politics now. It’s about time for him to be coining back, political soothsayers think. He seems to be thinking it, too. Ole Gene... .has come out against the poll tax, to the awful embarrassment of some of his grass root friends but with a political wisdom that is going to pay dividends. It won’t be hard for him to make his followers see that the poll tax has nothing to do with Negro voting... .What Gene has done with his startling stand against the poll tax is to take much wind ou of Gov. Ellis Arnall’s sails. The governor has just asked1 for repeal of the tax, and the picture of brave and liberal leadership is dimmed by this Talmadge support. It is dimmed, too, by the fact that Gov. Arnall waited too long to take the step. As Ellis Arnall comes out against the poll tax now. . things are different. The year has brought many changes. He has come to be known as a great and good friend of Henry Wallace, as a 100 percent Nev Dealer, as a White House disciple who sometimes gets White House signals mixed. His stand against the poll tax has the slightly mildewed aspect now of all things inverterately New Deal.” Draft Boards Move I Into Unified Office In an effort to cut red-tape in the handling of problems for returning veterans, the 10 selective service lo cal boards of Douglas county will be moved to a unified office at 1440 First National Bank Building, Om aha, by February 28.
