Negroes to Vote
En ir a

LYONS, os ~ ANP ~ Red
gallused, race-baiting Gene

Talmadge is afraid the Negro is
going to vote en bloc against
his enemy. ~ He expressed as
much in his. opening gubernatorial campaign address here
last week, Said Talmadge:
~Negroes are going to vote in
a bloc. We don~t know how
many but we do know that they
will vote solidly for Carmichael,~ He then appealed to. the
white people to vote solidly in.

a bloc for him. Talmadge continued,
~Elis Arnall Knows we can

retain a white primary in Georgia, as well as the A:lanta n~wspapers. They know that we ican
also retain the county unit ~system in Georgia, They know the
county unit system. was mainvained in Georgia befo:2 we ever
had a white primary in Georgia.
After the decision of the United
| States District Court of Appeals,
I called for a special session of
the Georgia General assembly
or the preservation of the Dem/ocratic white primary. f

~All Georgia needs to go is
exactly the same thing South
Carolina has done. There | is
noihing whatever to prevent
the laws that make the primary
an instrumentality of the state
rom being ~changed and handle

our primaries through party
rules, which then will remove
then. from the jurisdiction of

the iederal courts,

~Now, here~s what will happen if our Democratic;whiie
primary is not restored and preserved. The Negroes are going
to vote in a bloe, The very pur
~pose of the white primary ig for |.

the white people to vote in a
bloc in the general election.
Why should Negroes butt in and
tell. the white: people who
should be elected? The white
people will not vote in a. bloc
in a whité primary, That-is what
a white primary is for: it is to
select the candidate for wnom
ithe white people will vote in
| the general election. If the Ne' groes want a primary to see who
~they will vote for, why don~t
|they hold a separate Negro pri| mary?

~Using the 1940 census as ~the
basis for the computations, we
find that in 47 countizs of Georgia the Negroes represent 50
| ber cent and over of the papulation. In 92 counties the Negroés comprise 35 per cent or
more of the population, In 114
cuunties the Negroes comprise
25 per cent or more of the popj ulation. What will happen in
the 47 -counties where the Negroes have a majority if -the
white Democratic primary -is net

resitcred and preserved? I will
tell you what will happen; these.
Negroes in these countics will
elect your judBes, congressmen,
sheriff, your tax colectors, your
ordinary, your clerk of superior

court, your. tax receiver, your
county commissioners, your
county treasurer, your county
school superintendent, your

mayor and your council,

~Of course, when these Negroes have demonstrated that
they vote in a ratio of 956 to
nothing for their favorite candidate for office, it would be asin-!
ine to think these Negroes in the
47 ccunties of Georgia will look
up white people to support. On
the contrary, the. Pittsburgh
Courier, the Chicago Defender
and the Atlanta Daily World, all
N2er. papers, are telling everyone that the Negroes are on the
vergo of a new era in Georgia,
They will soon be electing officiais of this State; they have al-:
ready elected officers -in this
state and defeatad oihevs.

~Ellis Arnall~s chief sponsor,
Jim Cox of Ohio, has carried
him high on the mountains and
had him look into the valleys

and. his eyes since that time
have been upon Harlem, the
Negro Settlement.in New York
City, and he forgets the people
of Georgia who elected him. to
office,

~Here is another importani
thing we want to remember in
Georgia this year. The Negroes
