JURIES IN WILKES MAY
HAVE NEGROES AFTER JULY !

Mr.. Linville Bumgarner, clerk of
the Federal court, informs us that
county juries may include negroes af-
ter the first of July. The jury lists
will be revised and it is thought that
number of names of negroes will
be included.
This is being done in accordance
with a ruling of the United States
Supreme Court and is the outgrowth
of the famous Scottsboro case.
The board of county commissioners
will have the power to Gull the lists
so that no negroes or whites either,
who are not mentally and morally
qualified to serve and who have not
paid their taxes may be included.
1t was stated that there would be
no names of women included in the
revised jury lists.-Wilkes News
