CONN-GOWER PONTIAC COMPANY 310 South Salisbury Slr« Raleigh, N. C. Eleven Southern States quoted Senator Frank P. Graham's! stand against compulsory non segregation in their argument to { the Supreme Court in the famous University of Texas case. “The Court would serve all concerned,” said the attorneys general supporting Texas, “by listening to liberal and fair minded men who have no preju dice but who have been in the South and know the conditions.’’ Point 6 of the brief listed “Southern members of President Truman’s Committee on Civil Rights, including Senator Frank P. Graham of North Carolina, formerly president of the Uni versity of North Carolina and liberal educator of national rec ognition living in the midst of this problem.” The problem referred to is segregation in schools. The statement appears on page fourteen of the brief filed “In the Supreme Court of the United States, October Term, 1949, No. 44. Herman Marion Swcatt, Pe titioner, v. Theophilus Shickel, Painter Et Al.” - This is the ease in which the Supreme Court ruled that the University of Texas must not segregate Negroes from white students in its law school. Senator Graham’s quotation comes from the minority report of the President’s Civil Rights Commission, which Senator Gra ham's principal opponent appear ed unable to find during the | course of the first Democratic l primary.

Mount Airy, North Carolina Fames Ami Labor Face Income Slash By DAN SMYTH Chicago Correspondent AFL News Service Chicago.—The full employment program of President Truman'* economic advisers is threatened by a two-pronged attack of re actionary interests, Joseph Keen an, LLPE director believes. Mr. Keenan participated in a forum on “An Expanding Econ omy for a Growing Nation." The danger that now threatens the full employment plan, he said, is two-fold: ft) a threatened cut in farm income, and (2) a threat ened cut in worker's wages. "The first attack on farm income came in 1948,” Mr. Keenan sain, "when Senator Taft said in a speech in Nebraska that price supports should he much less than 90 per cent of parity.” During the last two years, thei LLPE chief continued, farm nrices have dropped off 23 per cent, while farm costs have gone down only two per cent. Net j farm income has declined about a third. "We in labor are concerned I about the farmer’s troubles,” said Mr. Keenan. “About 9,000,000 industrial jobs depend directly on high farm income.” The Taft-Hartley Act is a threat to high wages, he added. Also a part of the wage-cutting pattern were the amendments to the Wages and Hours Act, spon sored by Senator Spessard Hol land of Florida and Rep. W. H. Lucas of Texas, which exempted millions from the 75-cent mini mum wage. Goal of the wreckers is a 25-25 formula, Keenan charged—a 25 per cent cut in farm income and a 25 per cent cut in workers’ wages. "We cannot go forward,” he concluded, “until we rid our selves of the bloc of senators and congressmen in both parties whose policies will lead us into depres sion.” “FRANK GRAHAM IS AS DANGEROUS AS THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE” (Continued From Page 2) who shout at him and fear him today were against him then. “Is Senator Clyde R. Hoey a, dangerous radical? This is what he said of Frank Graham: “He is as loyal as any American who walks the earth . . . there has’ never been any question in North Carolina about his loyalty to this j country and its great traditions.”; “Republican Senator Wayne j Morse said of him, “He is the J most Christ-like man I have ever known.” “Author• Gerald Johnson: “He is no more Marxian than the late Andrew Mellon . . . His! friendliness is ope of'tha natu ral wonders of North Carolina, comparable to the height of lit. Mitchell and the. sweep of the hundred-mile beaches on the! coast." “North Carolinians, who have always seen the greatness ip. Frarfk Graham, have a high priv ilege, the envy of millions of voters of every other state in! the Union: They can return to the Senate one of the greatest' living AmerH^jis, and one of the towering figures of the history of their state.” . ^ j for continued segregation in j school in their brief to the Su- j preme Court. These attorneys general quoted from pages 166 and 176 of “To Secure These Rights,” the first part of which says: “A minority of the'committee favors the elim ination of segregation as an ulti mate goal but . . . opposes the imposition of a Federal sanc tion.? Following the Supreme Court’s ruling on the case this week. Senator Graham commented: “I appreciate the fact that the at torneys general of all the South ern states used my argument against compulsory abolition of segregation in presenting their case to the Supreme Court. “I still oppose, as 1 have al ways opposed, the Federal gov ernment’s forcing nojj-segaega tion on states or regions.” Are you listening to Frank Edwards’ radio broadcasts?
