Mayor Jennings asked the crowd
what il Thought e. white men who
| would cheer when the governor stood
| up ana bnas!cd that he had pardon
cd rlne hundred biz buck negroes. He
asked what The crowd thought Of the
parole of white man who went into n
home and slow the father. The fl
thcr wn. slain In his Cwn home and
yct his slayer was parolcd on con.li-
ton that lie leave the Dtate. ue
raid that all who believed Senator
Smith raised the price of cotton to
10 cents ought to vote for Smith. "if
those who TO not think he raircd III
price vote for me. l will be sutis-
fed" he said.
He said lie did not think Senator
Smiths record entitled him to re-
election. Gov. Blcasc's record, he
said. Is no damaging that 1t disuunli-
Ties him from even holding the Office
of coroner"
Mayor Jennings made the prcdic-
ton that Governor Bleasc would not
even be in the second race. This was
III reply to statement from man
IN the crowd that he would vote for
him III the second race II Blease was
not In It,
Referring to Gov. Blcase's .,stnte-
mcnts that lie would nust negroes
holding positions under civil SER
vic r,les C asked If his record in
turning 900 negroes out of the pen
ltentiary would lead them to be-
i!evc that he was negro hater.
In conclusion Mayor Jennings said
That there seemed to be an impress
sion that the race was between Bleasc
and Smith. He explained that no
man can be elected in the first
primary unless he receives majori-
ty of all votes cast. He urged tho
voters to cast their ballots in the
first primary for the man of their
choice. He pleaded for q return of
sanity In South Carolina and for the
death Of factionalism. He hopes to
see the day when men seeking OF
flee will go around advocating prin-
ciplc and not pie.
"On one hand today we have
man who claims you should send him
back, not because he is lender of
the people but because he talks cot
ton In reason and out of season. On
the other hand VIC have man who
GLAZING he should be sent because he
has pardoncd people and you can't
help yourselves. Mayor Jennings de-
claircd neither should be sent to the
senate but that man who repre-
cents all the people should be cho..
cn.
Mayor Jennings mnde marI1ed i'm
prcssion upon his audience 6nd was
given splendid attention towards the
close. At first he was heckled
slightly but he won his way and was
given loud applause when he closed

tribute to Anderson and to mayor

entered the race for the seuate the
time for entries had almost ex-
pfrcd and there were only two can
! didates, Smith ond Blcasc. He sol,
