DECISION BY U. S. COURT
RENDERED
The United States supreme court
has rendered a decision holding as
constitutional the guarantee giving
negroes the right to vote.
The decision applies to primaries
a swell as to general elections. It
overthrows the Texas state law ex
chiding negroes from taking part
in the Democratic primaries.
Federal control over state pri
maries for the selection of party
candidates, frequently < discussed in
Congress, recently receiving much
attention in connection with recent
senatorial elections in Illinois and
Pennsylvania, was the question be
fore the supreme court in an ap
peal by L. A. Nixon.
The federal district court for
western Texas, where Nixon sought
$5,000 damages for alleged depriva
tion of rights under the federal
and Texas constitutions, dismissed,
the suit, holding that no question
within its jurisdiction was present
ed. The supreme court was urged,
tecause of the importance of the
controversy, to dispose of the ap
peal on its merits, and announce in
unqualified terms the exact rela
tionship of .“primaries” to “elec
tions.”
As analyzed by the court, during
oral argument, the controversy was
narrowed in all of its constitutional
aspects to the question whether
party primaries are elections. The
constitutional guarantees against
discriminating on accout of race,
coior or previous condition of ser
vitude has been annulled, and his
rights as a citizen of the United
States to “vote’.’ had been abridged,
Nixon contended by the law of
'1 exas under which negroes are pro
hibited from voting in Democratic
primaries.
The fifteenth amendment to the
federal Constitution was restricted,
he asserted to the right to vote.
Democratic primaries in Texas were
conducted, he asserted, for the selec
tion of candidates by voting. De
claring that he had long been a
Democrat, and had compiled with
all laws regulating the qualification
of voters in the state, including the
payment of poll taxes, he denied
that the executive committee of his
party’s organization in Texas by a
fiat could lawfully prohibit him and
other negroes affiliated with the
Dtmocratic party from voting in
party primaries, or that the state
legislature could enact a law which
would be valid to give effect to such
an order.
Declaring that the Democratic
party in Texas was a private or
ganization, which financed itself,
one of whose functions was to select
candidates to be voted for at the
general elections, the state of
Texas asserted that to deny such an
organization the right to lay down
its qualifications for membership
would be to deny the members
fundamental rights as America#
citizens.
It was well known, the state an
nounced, that the Dqpiocratic party
in Texas was a white man’s party,
and that white people have just as
much right to organize their own
private political party as had cit
izens generaly to vote at general
elections.
