Welsh** In the spring of 1964 Democratic Governor George Corley Wallace of Alabama announced that he was going to campaign for the presidency of the United States, opposing President Lyndon B.

Wallace had become a national figure by defying the United States Supreme Court in refusing admission of Negro students to the University of Ala- bama, and his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomi- nation had obvious overtones of racial intolerance which I found most disturbing. Indiana had come a long way since the adoption of its Constitution of 1851, Article XI11 of which barred Negroes and mulattoes from entering the state. At that time blacks already living in the state, many of whom had been born here, were not regarded as citizens. They could neither vote nor hold public office. They could not serve on juries or in the militia, and they were barred from public schools.' Article XI11 was voided by the Indiana Supreme Court in 1866. The General Assembly authorized school integration in 1877, prohibited discrimination in enjoyment of public accommodations in 1885, and in 1963 created the Indiana Civil Rights Commission with broad pow- ers and an adequate budget.2 The record also disclosed, how- ever, that the statewide referendum in 1936 approving amend- ment of the Constitution to permit Negroes to be members of * This article is an account of the 1964 primary election in Indiana as experienced and remembered by one of the major participants in the campaign.

It has a population of almost 750,000 with ~ only two percent black and a small ethnic population. The primary date is May 4th. Indiana is the 11th largest- state. The Equal Rights Amendment just failed to pass the-, Indiana legislature. Althought both Senators are Democrats, Governor Otis Bowen, a physician, is a Republican.

Edmund Nuskie of Maine continues to hold a substantial lead over the rest of the Democratic field as the nationwide choice of Democrats and Independents for President. Sen. Hubert Humphrey holds onto second place among announced candidates, but Gov. George Wallace of Alabama has moved into a strong third as a contender within the Democratic party.
