In the campaign just ended,
Hugh White accused Huey Long
and Paul Johnson of angling for
the Negro vote. Paul Johnson
charged that Hugh White was
seeking the Negro vote. Both men
impressed their audience that it
was criminal for a white (Aryan)
man in Mississippi to encourage
a Negro (Jey) to exercise his
franchise as an American citizen.
Both men charged it was criminal
for a Negro to think Of voting in
a white" Democratic primary.
Both men implied that it was
criminal for a colored American
citizen in Mississippi to have any
interest whatever in the person
elected as governor Of the state.
Hugh White charged that a
colored man had heckled him
at Tupelo, and that it had been
difficult to hold the mob off this
colored man. White gave the fol-
lowing description of this ''heckl-
ing.
Saturday night I.spoke TO an
audience over in Tupelo that
numbered nearly 5000 persons.
While | was making my talk
someone shouted from a a in a
nearby street. He said, Yes, you
are a millionaire Later he said,
'Hurrah for Mr.. johnson and for
Huey Long
Some Of our friends were stand
ing nearby and went over to see
who was heckling me. Who do
you think it was? 1t was a big
buck Negro. Trouble was averted,
but the Negro was warned. He
kept his mouth shut"
Thus, In Mississippi, a Negro
runs the risk of mob violence if
he calls a white man a millionaire
or if he cheers either Huey Long
or Paul Johnson. a Jew in Ger
many might call a German a mil
liOnaire or cheer for Hitler with
out danger Of bodily harm.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 31-By
AMPLE the heated and almost
unbelievably ridiculous %guberna-
torial primary run-off campaign
concluded in this state Tuesday,
the public was informed of an
amazing set Of "crimes" Of which
the Negro in the state may be
guilty, or his friends.
The two candidates were Hugh
White, millionaire lumberman,
and Paul B. Johnson, a former
judge. They opposed each other
in the Democratic run-off.
The two issues in the campaign
were Huey Long, Senator from
Louisiana, and the Negro. These
two issues became merged into
one "Don't let the Negro get out
Of his place"
Almost daily reports reach this
country Of new crimes, possible

Noted Historian Re-
views "Black Re
construction
BY Rayford W. Logan, A. B.. A. Nj.
Professor of History, Atlanta Uni.

Black Reconstruction in America.
By w. E. Burghardt Dubois. New
York: Harcourt, Brace and Com
pany. TAG PIP. $3.50.
Those who have known DR.. Dubois
only as the bitterly sarcastic or the
coldly furious critic of white oppres-
sors of the darker races must ma
turally wonder whether he could
write a history Of the most contro-
versial period of his races strug-
giles in America One should remem-
Der, however, that the former mill
tant editor of the Crisis was also a
student under some Of Americas
most famous historians at Harvard,
that his book The Suppression Of the
African Slave Trade is number one
in the famous Harvard Historical
Series. A grant from the Trustees
of the Rosenwald Fund permitted
him during two years to use this
training and his ripe scholarship in
personal and supervised investiga-
ton of material for this study.
Black Reconstruction reveals DIR.
Dubois as both the merciless critic
and the constructive historian In the
last chapter, "The Propaganda Of
History, he has penned some of the
most singing castigations of Ameri-
can historians since the controversy
over the war guilt Of Germany. Thus
he says, Burgess was a STAKEHOLDER,
Dunning a ~Copperhead and Rhodes
an exploiter Of labor" A reading Of
this chapter first will give a clue to
the task that the historian has set
for himself.
That task is to rehabilitate the Ne
gro at the bar of history. Now, there
are two kinds Of rehabilitation. The
one disregards the record denies all
adverse criticism, and accepts all
favorable comments. The other meth
cd seeks merely to give as much en-
phasis to the contributions as to the
mistakes. Dr.. Dubois, then, adcits
most of the short shortcomings at
tributed to the Negroes in the Re-
construction conventions and legisla-
lures, but he also reminds hs read
ers that these same Negroes helped
to give the South IS first system Of
public schools for both black and
white children.
But other authors have done this,
although not so elequently and not
always so brilliantly as in Black Re
construction. The real value of this
opoch-making book lies elsewhere.
This, | believe, IS the first tine, one
understands that America lest dur
ing. Reconstruction her golden OPP
p~ortunity to found a political and in
dustrial democracy. Instead, as DR..
Dubois sees it: There began to rise
in America in 1876 a new capitalism
and q new enslavement- of labor.

peased and misled by a ballot whose
