PAGE TWO How Well Do You Know Yout Congwssmen We. have never had a great deal of faith in Southern congressmen. We have found them to be, for the most part, county-style politicians who by conniving, luck and strong voices have managed to yell themselves into Washington. Now we have less faith. Indeed, we are quite close to nausea. That some deep South congressmennota bly Reps. Abernethy, Whitten, Rankin and Williams of Mississippi, Reps. Rivers and Dorn of South Carolina, and . Rep. Cox of Georgia oppose anti-lynch bills, anti-poll tax bills, the FEPC and any other moves to better , the condition of Negroes is not unknown hereabouts. We quite understand that these bigoted gentlemen will do every thing in their power to keep the Negro in virtual, slavery. But now that the South has an opportunity actually to free the Negro through the Pres ident's civil rights proposals, liberals should work against those congressmen who are yelling about "seceding" from the Demo cratic party. Now is the time for liberals to-act. Act to get these characters out of the Demo cratic party. Act to get them out of Wash ington. Here is why: In a most strange echo to Henry Wallace's famous phrase, Rep. Abernethy has called on "all true Southerners to stand up and be counted." He says that by trying to help the Negro, Truman is "hell bent on barter Combination Is Only Answer .

Because it is impossible to hope that the student body can be reach ed in any other way, I appre ciate the courtesy of the editor in allowing me to discuss a few of tnwc esjisiderations under my old by-line.

Ncal Howard, Jr. NIGHT EDITOR: Ed ing or destroying us, our Southern institu tions and traditions for the support of radi cal Negro minorities." The "clever" Mr. Rivers from the area south of here says cuttingly, "One of these days" the so-called leaders are going to find out the so-called Solid South is not as solid as some of the heads of our so-called leaders." Now if ever we 'saw a fine defense of segre gation, that is it. The noted Mr. Rankin says that we are spending a lot of money fighting Communism in Europe and that here President Truman is trying to "ram the platform of the Com munist party down the people of the US." Mr. Rankin is mildy confused. He has gotten his Communist platform and Christian plat form mixed up. And, of course, it remains for Representa tive William Jennings Bryan Dorn to cap this crop of nonsense. Immensely pertinent is his suggestion that we "put first things first in this country and not try to out-Wallace. Henry Wallace." . His namesake would be proud. So it goes. We don't know just what Harry is up to with his Civil Rights program. Perhaps he is trying to pick off the Wallace vote. That seems logical, even though many think that by so doing he will lose his entire Southern block. Not likely. Southerners are born with the Democratic party in their system. They will vote for the Party regardless of what its chief spokesman says. B. S. are presently published. (2) You may vole for ihe - Carolina Magazine only. (3) You may vote for ihe Tarnation Magazine only. (4) You may vote for one combined humor and liierary magazine. (5) You may vole for al ternating issues of ihe Tar nation and Carolina Maga zines in ihe same office and " management. (6) You may vote for no magazine. In my opinion it is wasteful to maintain the two magazines separately as we are now do ing because the two staffs could be combined without eli minating anyone who wishes to work on the publications. The friction is great and adver tising competition is unnecess ary. To abolish the Carolina Magazine or the Tarnation Magazine in the choice of either one for the other' will leave a high complement of students unsatisfied. It should be pointed out here also that columnists are their own and Complete Leased Wire of United Press SOCIETY EDITOR: Jane Mears. ASST. BUS. MGR.: Mary W. Sledge. ADVERTISING MGR.: Eaton Hokten. Joyner NIGHT it is particularly dangerous to hope to keep any magazine completely humorous while at the same time retaining stand ards of discretion. To ask for alternating ' issues is to only bring about more conflict when the staffs are at closer quarters and will not result in continu ity between issues. It seems that the choice to have no magazine is one of complete disregard for the prestige of this University in the field of publications and would ne cessarily constitute a reflection upon the educational values of us all. Therefore, I should ap preciate your consideration of a combination which would either eliminate or minimize most of these objections. Clearly this a question so directly concerning ihe siu deni body thai its decision should be rendered in ihe form of a referendum. How ever, it seems only fair and logical ihai f some of ihe aspects of the question should be discussed with ihe voter. are not necessarily those of the Kepresented for national advertising by National Advertising Service, Inc., 420 Madison Ave., New York, N.

SPORTS: Bob Goldwater xntu DAILY BILL MAULDIN'S CARTOON This 'n That Competition For Lincoln By Bill Buchan- I don't remember anything about Herbert Hoover's reign as president. Matter of fact, the first I recall in national affairs are Shirley Temple and Frank lin D. Roosevelt. Shirley was a four-year-old moppet charming millions of Americans on the screen and Roosevelt was the man who was going to "straight en things out." Now Shirley is a mother and Roosevelt has been dead for nearly three years. Last night, a motion picture, "The Roosevelt Story" was shown at one of the local movie houses. I went because I wanted to see the screen version of his career and because in my humble way I wanted to, if possible, pay homage to one of the world's greatest men. Walter Winchell, in commenting on the picture sftid, "you have to see it twice. . . the first time you? -crbs are filled with tear.s." Naturally it didn't affect many oi those who sway it in that manner, but the ma jority must have come away with a soul-searching thought that here was a man who might have been able to lead us to the "peace" we sought in the past war. Roosevelt had many critics, some of them severe, but few men today can deny the great good that he did, not only for his own country, but. for the his theories are currently flood ing the market, but none of them are telling the small people any thing they did not already know about the man who led them from depression to worthwhile living and then through a terrible war to victory. His birthday, for many years celebrated with plush balls for the benefit of infantile- paralysis, passed almost, unnoticed this year. His pet charity, the March of Dimes, met discouraging re sults throughout the country. Back in 1937, James M. Farley remarked .that the accomplish ments of the Roosevelt adminis tration would last as long as the American republic. Last? Three years after his death, we are moving steadily away. Changing times and current problems on the local and international front perhaps necessitate such a move Write Away Russian, Editor: In order to concur with all that is said in the Anti-umxy article in yesterday's Daily Tar Heel it would be necessary to believe the following: 1. U. S. Gov't advocates ag gressive warfare. 2. U. S. Gov't wants to force the views of American bigwigs .down ihe throats of the world. 3. Persecution is in the offing for all anti-Wall Sfreeters. 4. U. S. adoption of a form of training now in effect in all other major countries would start a new armaments race. 5. UMT will brutalize, milita rize, shatter the morals of. de stroy the independence of all our boys. 6. The world is struggling for peace. TAR HEL"L ment, but one can't help but wonder what would have hap pened if Roosevelt was still in office and the Democrats were selecting a man to succeed him, rather than renominating one who got the office accidentally. Abraham Lincoln,, so they tell me, was one of the greatest if not the greatest Americans who ever lived. I wouldn't know, both because he lived before my time and because my Southern rearing may have been a bit prejudiced. I do know, however, that when future historians (if the world last that long) add new chapters to the American history, Ole Abe will have a serious com petitor for the honor. In my opinion, Lincoln will move to second place and Franklin Roose velt will take ovrr the cwveted spot. Mudville Mutferings Earnest Workers Campaign March Of Dimes By Dan Sapp Well, I got scooped this week on the Daniels road March of Dimes story but at least I can add a few words of congratula tions. The man who really de serves the credit for getting the thing going is Haywood Wyatt. Haywood had ihe job of col lecting from Daniels road dumped on him Monday with instructions to turn the money in Saturday, if you remember the weather got a shade messy along in there but using his own methods Haywood got things organized and Saturday morning Daniels road had turn ed out 100 per cent for the March. Others who waxed their skis and helped out were Buri Brock, Tom Crittenden, Ed Greer, Charlotte Hayes and Sue Hunt. Sunday was playday for all the kids including those of col lege age, some really fine pieces of ice sculpture are still standing as result. One ex tremely classic rendition of (See WORKERS page 4) Quisling Or A Fool? 7. Urging of UMT is based on fear, cynicism and imperialism. I respectfully submit that any one who professes to believe all of that is either a Soviet fifth columnist, a potential Quisling, or a damn fool. Bill Patterson Defend Americanism Dear Sir: The very fact that this "Har vard Felix Frankfurtering in fluenced" MA admitted being a Communist excluded him from any religious affiliation and branded him as anti-American. The privileges of so deeply rooted an Americanism as is basic in our UNC .do not belong to avowed opponents of our way of life (as are all Communists).
