In every county in the state the
negroes belied reports that they might
seek to evade registration. Not a
rumor OF dislCyalty or Disturbances
arising among negroes was heard. and
in many instances negroes clearly out

lister. In some counties the negroes
outnumbered the white men. In JET
ferson for example, there were 3.374
negroes and 1917 white men. In Du-
mas there We're 1914 negroes and SO
white men. In Carol county there
