Scott pointed out the Importance

possible for one vote to decide the

was also pointed out how Speak
er Harris had boosted since the

Negroes in Georgia would be kept
out of the Georgia Primary by
laws attempting to circumvent ey-

"a vote for Harris is a vote for

The large gathering frequently
applauded the speakers. 1t was
noted that the Cracker Party was
strongly entrenched in Augusta
and Richmond County and that it
controlled the police, the courts
the schools and government of
both. Evidence was revealed that
the Cracker Party made attempts
to get every Negro vote possible
through Negroes connected with
the underworld who had accepted
favors from it. A Cracker Bulle-
tin was circulated daily in the Ne
gro community. Yet, at the same
time.it appealed to the white vot-
