That is the real issue at gration, President Moron understake in this controversy, after everything bas been said ~~:. th e importance of t.he adand done. For a long time nothing has been said about the right of the Negro to vote in areas where he is actually in the majority, It is the basic majority vote that Southerners fear. Somehow the southern white man feels that he will lose face and that racial superiority will go out the window the moment he permits majority rule, regardless of who the majority may he, or to what race it belongs, other than white. 'fhere are some sections of the country where political subdivisions are in control of Chinese, son1ewhcre Japanese, Mexicans and other nationalities would detcr1nine who is elected to office.

The President's Te.xas address was the occasion for the unveiling of his People-to-People program.. "Hampton stands ready to accept this challenge," Moron stated. '"Because of our 90 years of history as an Interracial facility for education," the college president explained, "we seem to qualify for consideration as a location for the kind of center proposed by Mr. Finletter."
