WALTER WHITE IN BOSTON

Of all our national leaders, Walter
White, secretary of the NAACP, is
perhaps the best known for personal
courage. His spurs were won while
he was investigator of lynchings during
the period when the late James Weldon
johnson was secretary.
Mr.. Whites entire career has been
devoted to active participation in the
struggle for citizenship rights in the
fullest degree for colored people. As
a novelist, with "FIRE IN THE
FLINT" and FLIGHT" to his credit,
he used his quite exceptional literary
talent to bring the problems of our
people In the South dramatically to
public notice. Since his succession to
the NAACP secretaryship, upon the
resignation of Mr.. johnson, he has been
our spokesman before Congressional
Committees on legislation affecting us.
All Boston should show its apprecia-
ton Of Mr.. Whites services by attend
ing, In full force, his lecture on Sunday
