would not attend school. He was or

STATE MEETING ON
LITERACY MEASURE
Colocd People to Assemble July 10

Means"
Special TO The World

pPttihl 10 Inc hOTlu.
SAPULPA, Okla, July SIS. l..
James of this city today announced
that on July 10 there would he a mass
meeting at oklahoma City of all col
ored persons interested in the fight
aaginst the adoption of the proposed
literacy amendment to the constitu-
ton, to be voted on at the primary in
August.
Myself and other colored men of
oklahoma believe that we can oh
tain much better results if we can
eliminate the political aspect from
the proposed literacy test amendme ent
to the constitution which will be
voted on in August" said James to-
day in discussing the call for the
state meeting. THE negroes are in
terested in the defeat of this meas
ure. As evidence Of that fact some
OF the best negro orators OF the ma
ton are offering their services and
means for the purpose of defeating
this amendment We hope to wage
a campaign of our own. using colored
speakers and distributing literature
We believe we can thus effectively
destroy any arguments that the Dem
ocrats might make against the Re
publicans for their opposition to the
measure"
The literacy test amendment is
proposed by the Democrats Of the
state as n substitute for the grand
father clause" which has been
knocked out by the supreme court of
the United States If adopted its ef-
feet will be to dlsfranchise hundreds
of whites and colOred people.
