SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

Or** of the most impressive statements, in *o»tr judgment, that President Johnson imuie ufton his recent trip to Buffalo vas:

“As I look over the places on the map of the world, there i? not another nation 1 would rather live in than America, and we ought to i>e proud of it,”

There is so much truth in this statement. This paper has always been of this same opin­ion. There are shortcomings here, and one of them is the racial question. But despite some opposition, it is slowly but surely improving.

Radical changes for the better have been manifest tince the beginning of t h i s paper some 40-odd years ago in this area. In fact, as slowly or as f a s t aa these improvements are c o m i n g about, they may overtake the treatment and attitudes of Negroes, one to an­other— which are problems the race Itself will and must resolve to assure its self - improve­ment, as well as that of the nation.

Disfranchisement laws were passed in Lou­isiana in 1898. in North Carolina and Alabama in 1901; Virginia, 1902; Georgia, 1908; Ok­lahoma, 1910. T h e y but codified what was taking place in life.

It was during t h i s period, too, in which Negroes still had a remnant of political pow­er, that the spurious charge of rape was ele­vated into an institution, an extra-legal'polit-
