Voter registration hit an nil

two white men in it drove up j
Bullet- began flying every-1

Wilkins reportedly told the (
deputies that the white men
(old him. "We didn’t mean to

Fort was up the river at the !
lime and did not sec the.
truck or the. men. lie told the
deputies.
Fort rushed Wilkins to St. Ag-:
ncs Hospital at about 7:30 Tues- \
day night.
Wilkins’ injury has been
described b.v a physician as
“a very serious injury. The
bullet went through the right j
lung before striking the spin
si cord."
Paralysis is believed to have
already set in and the pros
pect that he will be paralizcd
from the hips down seems
very likely.
Robert D. Pleasants, sheriff of
Wake County, said his deputies j
were continuing their investiga- j

According to the charges,
the plaintiff and “25 or mure

denied registration on the
voting books by the defen
dant. The so-called literacy
test is a treatment extended
to applicants of the plaintiff's
race, the suit charges, the
(est, the suit charges is “arbi
trary anil capricious.’’
A Northampton County resi
dent for 37 years, Mrs. Lassiter
aays that she was given a “pur
ported literacy test". She was told
to read a printed copy of the con
stitution of North Carolina. When
she finished, she was informed
that she could not register be

The plaintiff is represented by
the local law firm of Herman L.
Taylor and Samuel S. Mitchell

enough, this vicious law' further
states that there is no appeal from I

In counties such as North- |
ainpion where the Negro pop- j
ulation equals, and in some in
stances, exceeds the white, are
the places where Negroes have
so much trouble in trying to
register. Can anyosp- reason
ably believe that toe number
of Negroes in these counties
has nothing to do with the
failure of these Negro appli
cants to read "to the satisfac
tion of the registrar”. Can any
one reasonably doubt that our
"great" Senator Mr Sam .1.
Ervin, is not fully aware of
these abitrary civil rights de
nials and subsequent disfran
chisement of Negro citizens.
Instances like this one serve to
make his loud mouthed pro- |
testations against the enact- i
ment of laws to prevent such !
happenings all the more ridicu
lous.
TOO MUCH AVOIRDUPOIS: We
notice that a group of women in
Alexandria. Va. has organized a
Weight Control Conference. The
purpose of tlv.s conference which
meets onc<» each week is for the
members to help each other in the
task of getting rid of excess fat
and controlling their weight There
are two requirements for joining
tfiis conference, a doctor’s permis
sion and a promise to attend all
the meetings. At these meetings
the members are told of the haz
ards and menace to health of over
weight. They are told what causes j
execs? fat to accumulate: what ■
each member should weigh and |
what step? they must take to ac- !
compHsh the end they arc seeking, j
We think it would be a pretty j
good idea to have such an organiza- !
tion here in Raleigh. Since there j ,
are as many overweight men here !
ns women, it would be wise to
have the organization open to both j
S' .vs. Wr imagine uk great ban- |
oicop to formtng such an organs- j ,

through his devotion and manifold j
contributions to the Presbyterian !

He served his race bv his un
selfish and unswerving dedi

education. Air. Young based his
operations in Wake Forest, hut

Mr. Young was helping to
bridge the gap between what

At an age when many men think j

CREDIT UNION: The news from

The officers and the director? of I
the Wake Credit Union are all
honest, conscientious and dedicat

to acknowledge the failure of the
union io measure up to the hopes
they exported. They also will wel
come any constructive criticism*
aimed at strengthening the organi
zation. Lack of publicity is prob
ably the chief reason why the
Wake Credit Union has lagged as
it has There just isn'i enough peo
ple who know that this organiza

to acquaint the people in this area !
with what this organization can j
do toward helping to build a better j

SCHOOL BUS DRIVERS: After
having observed the careless man
ner in which one student school
bus driver operated his vehicle,
we concluded that if this particu
lar driver was an average school
bus operator it is small wonder
(hn! there are not more school bus
accidents. We suppose it will be
conceded that it is hard for a
young teen boy to exercise the
care he should while driving a
school bus and at the same time
give his attention to several pretty ;
teen age girls sitting directly be- ;
hind him. Yet that is what we ob- 1
served one trying to do. It seems 1
to us that this is a job with enough }
responsibility to be given to per
sons who have reached the age of j
responsibility.
