HARLEM DENIS
LAYING FOR"
II OBJ. VAN N

Nv York-(C)-A nice "recep-
ton committee is waiting patient
ly for the arrival of Robert l..
Vann of Pittsburgh to come to
New York and start debating or
ders in the Democratic campaign
among Negroes. Just what kind of
welcome this committe will ex-
tend may be cleaned from the
fact that back in May, there gath
cred in Westchester county all the
big shot" Negro Democrats who
pledged themselves to keep out
of New York any big Negro" from
anywhere else during the coming
campaign. 1t was with this thought
in mind that the Harlem dele
gates marched on DR.. William j.
Thompkins' Colored Democratic
Association in Philadelphia and
tried to GUST him in favor of DR..
Godfrey Nurse, Harlemite. But the
plan failed. At that time the Har-
lemites thought Dr. Thompkins
would head the national campaign.
But to the surprise of the Ha2-
lemites, Vann beat DR.. Thomp
kins to the draw and walked off
with the cake. This fact further
enraged New Workers, fer Herbert
L. Bruce, Harlem's own Tammany
District leader, had tried to gel
Big Jim Farley's ear, but to nc
avail.
So now 1t looks like there is go
ing to be some real old-fashioned
Indian knitting in the hack when
Vann and Julian d. Rainey, the
Pittsburgh and Boston big q"
move in to claim their birthright
in New York, New Workers swear
they won't take it." They have a
statewide organization which
they say they won't give over to
anybody, and Herbert L. Bruce,
the fiery little leader who knocked
out whit man for the first time
in history for a Tammany post,
and who, by main force, named
John T. Doles to a $4,000 a year
job in the Internal Revenue De-
partment, has told Jim Farley who
is running Harlem. And there are
others who lay claim to the rest
of New York State.
Big Jim needs Harlem terribly
bad in the coming campaign. Will
Bruce lick Vann? That's the next
heavyweight battle to which Har-
lemites are getting ringside. seats.
And the Republicans are guffaw-
ing.

The Republican Party Fails
The Negro
l have heard a great deal said
here about the sanctity of plat
forms. 1t is an easy thing to talk
about. l represent group of
people who, during a period of 60
years, the only things they have
got from the Republican Party
were beautiful promises made by
platform that they knew was
made to be broken. For more than
so years my people have been al
most solidly registered in the Re-
publican Party. 1t is only during
the past or 5 years that Negroes
have found that the Democratic
Party is safe place to live and
vote.
During all this time we were
told by the Republicans that we
had been freed by the Republican
Party; that Lincoln was elected to
the Presidency Of the United
States for the purpose of liberat-
ing the slaves; and because of that
doctrine that was preached to us
year in and year out we develop
ed into an almost solid Republican
block of voters in this country.
Now, | have taken the trouble
to bring to you the platform that
Lincoln was elected on, and to
bring to you Lincoln's inaugural
address showing that there is abb
solutely no truth in the statement
that Lincoln was elected President
of the United States for the pur-
pose of liberating the Negro slaves.
| read from his own address.
Apprehension seems to exist
among the people of the Southern
States that by the accession of a
Republican administration their
property and their peace and per-
sonal security are to be endanger-
ed. There has never been any
reasonable cause for such appre-
hension. Indeed, the most ample
evidence to the contrary has all
the while existed and been open
to their inspection. 1t is found
in nearly all the published speeches
of him who now addresses you. l

speeches when l declare that

indirectly, to interfere with the

During the past or months

We have watched the taking of
a straw vote by the Literary Di-

an effort on the part Of Republic
cans to show that the Democratic
Party has made a miserable failure
OF its job of handling the Govern
ment of the United States but
last Tuesday was a memorable day
In the great State that l repre-
sent, the great State of Illinois, the
common people, the voters gave
the world the truth. We told the
world exactly what the American
people think of the Democratic
Party and our great President.
We did not have the Literary
Digest to speak for us last Tues
day, neither did we have the repre-
thissentatives Of the great wealth of
this country; we did have the COM
mon people of that great State

pie have spoken, l believe that
those who would misrepresent us
are inclinde to be a little more
careful about their statements re-
garding where the country has
been led under the leadership of
the Democratic Party.
have heard those who defend
ed the Democratic Party stand
here and refer to the reports that
we have seen in the financial
sheets of our great dailies, which
have always been in contradiction
to the editorials, and to the news
items that have been handed the
public by those papers that would
like to destroy the program of the
Democratic Party; but last Tues
day, when the people of the great
State of Illinois marched to the
polls almost two and a half mill
lions strong to register their de-
cision and to tell the world what
they think of the New Deal, it was
our great President of the United

who received more than one and
