In this great crisis of the Negro peo-
pie, "Dickerson asked pointedly, who
stood by them and for progress? The
New Deal That is the answer. Who
opposed the advancement of the Negro
people and their housing? The enc
mics of the New Deal concentrated in
the Republican party. We cannot and

Proudest that victory had come was

on the project plans until as he told

every stick and stone measured out in

When completed, the project will ac-

numbering approximately $500 people
in the low income group. Cost will be
approximately $7,0OO,O0O.

prominent speakers denounce the in

developed into victory rally when

Dickerson told his cheering audience.

REGISTER IN S. c. IN
SPITE OF KHAN THREAT

Greenville, S. c., August, (CNA)-
Intimidation and threats of the Ku
Klux Klan to ride again in the South"
did not frighten 81 Negro citizens who
registered here last week for the mu
nicipal election.
Behind the sinister slogan of "pre
serving white supremacy" the Klan
issued statement calling on its men,
members to action to prevent further
registration of Negroes for the city
election.
In answer to this fascist domagogic
appeal hundreds of Negroes, following
the action of the 81, turned out and
registered in open defiance of the
K1an.
Negroes comprise 40 per cent of the
population of the state, but only few
are permitted to vote. The recent re-
gistration marks another milestone in
the fight of Southern members of the
race for political franchise.
Encourage by the militancy of Ne
groes in Miami and Birmingham, who
are conducting a determined fight for
the right to vote, members of the race
in South Carolina and everywhere in
the South are prepared to make show
down fight before the 1940 election.
The Negro Youth Council of Green
vile, the NAACP, the organized labor
movement and the Workers Alliance
have pledged themselves to meet the
challenge of the Klan by encouraging
more Negroes and poor whites to reg
lister.
Voters clubs are being formed, anc
according to William Anderson, Presf
dent of the Negro Youth Council
more than 5000 will be registered b.
the time of the Presidential campaign
next year.
Local white newspapers announced
that the heavy" registration of 81 Ne
groes, had more than doubled the reg
istration of the white voters the mex
day. 1t would seem that the fight o
the Negro group is stirring the whit
population to renewed interest il
politics.
