An Open Letter to
Readers of The
St. Paul Recorder

Dear Friends:
In the heat of political cam
paigns very often tactics are used
in behalf of certain candidates
which are abhorred by all honest
citizens, of whatever race, color or
creed. You all know that / have
been nominated to succeed myself
as County Surveyor of Ramsey
County and l have been informed
that in order to decrease my
chances for election in November,
the story is being circulated that /
am member of the Ku Klux Khan,
and opposed to certain races and
religious beliefs.
want you all to know that such
statements are damnable false
hoods. am absolutely ignorant
concerning the activities of the
K. K. K, in fact I do not even
know whether or not it is function
ing in this section of the country.
l am not and never have been a
member of it.
1 do know this, however, that if
l were a member l could not enjoy
the true friendship which is mine
of such colored folks as Clarence
w. Wigington, William M. Godette,
James Bolden, and their families.
1 was a guest at Mr.. Wigington's
home on the occasion of the we'd
ding of his daughter some time ago
and have often visited at his home
before and since that time as he
has at mine, and he and his family
are always welcome at my home.
This is also true of Mr.. Godette
and his family, of whose friend
ship I am very proud.
have been associated as a pub
lie employee with these two re-
spected citizens ever since 1920 and
am more than proud of it. Mr..
Bolden is now employed as a clerk
in the office which / am privileged
to head at this time and has proven
himself to be a very efficient, cour-
teous worker whose friendship I
value highly.
l have no interest in any mans
religious belief, believing that such
matters are his own private affair.
The colored people of st. Paul have
among them many of my dearest
friends and their problems interest
me highly. Many times have WIS.,
tied with them socially in the Ster-
ling Club, the Halle Q. Brown
Community Center, and in their
churches and homes, and l intend
to continue to do so, come what
may.
/ ask you, does this sound as if
were a K. K. K? Please always
consider such reports as lies of the
worst type and ever regard me as
Your friend,
HARRY S. BRONSON,
HSB-h County Surveyor.

Elks Emancipation
Day Picnic Is
Great Success

The Elks joint Emancipation
Day Picnic given by the Twin City
Elk Lodges, Gopher Lodge les,
Ames Lodge 106, Como Temple
1913, and Minnehaha Temple 129,
Thursday, August a, 1888, at Har-
riet Island, st. Paul, was a huge
success.
The Electrical prizes were
awarded at 1890. First prize, a

Marjorie Hopkins of 600 Central
Ave., st. Paul.

dio, won by Mr.. A. ]. Munson, 127

first; Charlotte Perteete of st.
Paul, second, and third to "Little
Joe" of Minneapolis.

will not do, and l herewith give
my reasons:
First, I agree with the editor
of the Louisville Defender that
while we hold no brief against the
furtherance of personal ambition,
we are constrained to wonder,
would not the very fact of putting
forth this name by his personally
controlled periodical cause some
doubt as to the sincerity of pur-
poser
Second, the people of Pitts
burgh have twice rejected Vann
by popular vote for a local judge
ship, and if his home folks denied
him such an honor, why should the
Nation give it to him?
Third, knowing Vann's political
tactics as I do, I am of the opinion
that Vann, because he suffered
severe loss of prestige in '36 in
the New Deal, when he was kept
out of the national picture by par
ty leaders after he had announced
himself that he would head the
campaign among colored voters,
is seeking by this devious route to
get the race to indorse him, and
in 1910 he might again be in po-
sition to bargain with the bosses
for his own personal benefit.
Further credence is given this
theory by this quotation from a
first page news article in the Buck
eye Review of Youngstown, O., last
week: Former Assistant United
States Attorney General Theron B.
Hamilton who accompanied Mr..
Vann to the city, spoke briefly on
the benefits Negroes have received
from the Democratic party It
would appear bit off color for
one seriously asking support for
appointment to the Supreme Court
to be going around making po-
litical speeches, in all probability
at so much per speech, accom-
panied by the chairman of the So
called committee asking all public
spirited citizens, regardless Of
party, to indorse him.
"And finally, I say this Supreme
Court campaign may be just an
other circulation stunt for Vann's
paper, for the initials tWPB' APP
pear in the lower left-hand corner
of Hamilton's letter, and I inter-
pref these to be the initials of
Vann's circulation manager, and
doubtless the whole campaign was
planned and is being executed from
Vann's own office, with a weather
eye on Vann's newspaper press
run rather than on the White
House for results"

The bidding by Mr.. Lockridse was

however, overbid his hand when he bid
three hearts over one spade. Neither
his high card holding nor the length
of his heart suit was suficient to
justify this bid.

more trumps for fear Of squeezing the

to dummys king and cashed dummy's

finessed dummys jack. East returned

to his hand by trumping, he cashed
