In North Carolina, a few years ago, African Americans voted in the state capitol in Raleigh for the first time since Reconstruction. True, it was in a mock Assembly, to which they were student delegates--an annual project of North Carolina college students--but the event was important as a step toward the solution, by Southerners, of the South's most serious problem. Two years ago, in December, 1945, the Ninth Annual North Carolina, Student Legislative Assembly was held in the capitol. Various unexciting resolutions were passed--in favor of peace, increased state appropriations for higher education, improved penal conditions, and so on.
