2 THE CAROLINIAN WEEK ENDING SATURDAY. MAY St, 195 S Voting Editorial (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) and votf for the candidates of their choice on Saturday, May 31. Because the principle ol minority representation is at stake, you must take time, go to the polls, and exercise a unified respon sibility for putting in office capable men You will be asked to vote for a resident judge for the dis trict, one senator, three representatives, a county sheriff, a coun ty coroner, and county commissioner. Besides, you will be asked to vote YES or NO to a proposal to increase the membership of the Board of County Commission ers of Wake County from five (5) to seven (7) so as to provide a total of three commissioners from Raleigh townsnip. We urge 7,000 registered Negro voters in Wake County to report to the polls 100 per cent Saturday. If you do this your voting strength wiil be equal to that of 14,000 registrants casting thrir votes. We say tins, because in the past only about 52 per cent of the eligible voters participated in the Wake County elec tions. The polls will be open from 6:30 a m. to 6:30 p.tn. If you stay at home, your action may mean the difference between putting in office men who will represent just the ma jority group and a candidate who will represent all the people YOU and ME No one can compel! you to do anything you don’t want to do, but is is your unrequited obligation to vote.

AIDING AND ABETTING I CRIME Much is being written ! and said about crime these days. | especially the growing rate of j crime among Negroes all over the nation. Some of what is being said ; is sadiy true, and much of it is false. We believe that the saddest ; aspect of this state of affairs is our ndifferertce j.o it and thd* aid • !-nd to its continuance and spu d I'he majority of us arc net criminals; as a matter of fact, (host of want to believe we arc Simon pure, law-abiding citi- zens. The truth of the matter, however, is that when we. close our eyes to the criminal activi ties going on right under our noses, and say nothing about them, we are not law-abiding citizens. It is disturbing that men and j women of our race would make , their living by operating vice dens. I liquor and gambling joints for ‘the j benefit' of hardened adult crimln- j als. Rut when these vice operators > invite and persuade our young people, teen-age boys and girls, to j •. nter these premises, sell them j whisky.‘ and aid in seducing and i demoralizing them, they are not ' '.tw-abiding citizens. And when we. 1 who see this going on say nothing, we are worse criminals. Every citizen should do all that is in his power to help stamp out crime here in Raleigh—yes, here in Raleigh. SCHOOL IS OUT This week the curtain will come down on public school activity here and elsewhere.
