North Carolina Bar Endorses Constitutional Amendment
Fourteen hundred North Carolina lawyers, including Judge Shepherd and Judge Burwell, declare the proposed constitutional amendment not in conflict with state or federal constitutions. They argue sections four and five are interdependent and must stand or fall together, and that ratification should not disfranchise anyone who could vote before 1867 if they register before 1908 and avoid crime.
