Being at odds with the Radical Republicans, President Johnson became adamant and ordered the return of property to their pre -war owners and sought to diffuse the voting issues by with suggestions to governors and delegates that they enfranchise literate Blacks and those who owned property worth $250. None of the new State constitutions provided Black suffrage, however, that was not unusual. For example, three New England States rejected proposals to give Blacks suffrage.
