Anti-Bias Stand Means Foe Cant Appease Southern Bloc.

By MARSHALL MCNEIL Seripps-Howard Staff Writer CHICAGO, June 28.-The Re~ publican party has seen to it that: there will be no “white supremacy”! plank in the Democratic platform— and thereby may hang the election,’ in the opinion of some anti-fourth term southern Democrats. In 168 lines in its platform, the G. O. P. convention put the party| strongly on record as opposed to! discrimination against Negroes, going beyond the position it took four years ago. The platform— ONE: “Unreservedly” condemns appeals to racial or religious prejudice. |

TWO:

“mistreatment, segregation and discrimination” against Negroes in the armed forces. { THREE: “Pledges” establish-' ent of a permanent fair employ-| ment practice commission. FOUR: Advocates a constitutional amendment to eliminate the poll tax as a prerequisite to voting in federal elections. FIVE: “Favors” anti-lynching | legislation and “pledges our sincere” efforts in behalf of its early en- | actment. . This means that the Democratic| eonvention cannot attempt to mols | lity anti-fourth term southerners | and southwesterners by silently]
