WALTER WHITE PREDICTS
NEGRO POLITICAL REVOLT

ANDERSON, Ind.-"The greatest
political revolt among Negroes that
has ever been known in a national
election" was predicted for Novem-
Der by Walter White, secretary of the
National Association for the Adj

Sunday afternoon addressed the As

"The Negro as a minority group"
said Mr.. White, "feels that his only
hope under the present form of gov

monopoly upon elections by any one
party-Republican, Democratic, or
any other. Where the margin is close
the Negro as a minority group can
use his ballot most effectively and
this the Negro is rapidly learning.

When news of the Staying reached
i the sheriff's office he summoned all
available police and called on his
friends to aid in the search for the

Howling like barbarians, the mob
marched through the downtown dis

pistols. AS it passed along the way
the crowd grew larger Most Of them

two churches, Sheriff Williams ex-.,
claimed, "Well, boys, that'll be all fer
