Senator BilbO Coming
to Minnesota

Despite protests from several
Minnesota Negro Democrats Sena-
tor Theodore BilbO of Mississippi
will be the principal speaker at the
Jackson Day dinner March 20.
Democratic chieftains in the state
realized too late that Bilbo was
thoroughly disliked by colored peo-
pie everywhere and by most whites
who believe in progressive move
ments.
An attempt to get another speak
er assigned to Minnesota was un-
successful. Bilbo is reported to
have told Minnesota leader that
he was "a friend of the colored
people"
Two years ago Bilbo sponsored a
bill in Congress to provide for the
removal Of all American Negroes
to Africa. The bill attracted some
publicity but was laughed out of
Congress and off the nations front
pages.

Tuesday morning in a show window
Of the John w. Thomas Co. at 9Th

After a barrage of phone calls
into the offices Of the Minneapolis
Spokesman, newspaper, from white

gate.
