N.C. Policy Restricts.
Negro Registration

NEW YORK.~Citing comparative figures of Negro registration in North Carolina and those of citizens of British
Guiana, Roy Wilkins, NAACP executive secretary, asserts
in a letter to Senator Samuel J. Ervin (D., N. C.) that ~~it is
fair to deduce that a policy is in operation in North Carolina designed deliberately to restrict the registration of

When Mr. Wilkins appeared

-tee on Constitutional Righis
on Feb. 19, Senator Ervin
stated that there was no restriction against Negroes registering and voting in North
Carolina. He expressed the
opinion that the relatively low
~ registration was due to apathy
or to occasional hostility of
registrars in a few localities,
According to a story published
in The New York Times, ~75 per
cent of adult. citizens in British
Guiana are registered to vote,
Mr. Wilkins. told the Senator in
a letter dispatched today. On
the other hand, he pointed out,
only 26. per cent of eligible
