TORTN TOPS WALsH2

It is difficult to discuss the
local political situation with
out Mourning some criticism,
The Democrats here naturally
expect their slate of Tobn,
Walsh and Dever will win the
big campaign which already has
racked up a record registration
of voters. The Denis may be
right. Mr.. Tobin, at least, has
become more popular than he
was some years ago with labor
as well as with colored citizens.
Walsh and Dever are perhaps
not so popular as Mr.. Tobin, Mr..
Walsh has been quite busy as
a senior senator on committee
work. Tobin today might beat
Walsh If he ran for the senate.
Ledge might turn the trick next
month.
BRADFORD POPULAR
w. E. Mullins, political editor
Of the Boston Herald, implied
last week that the increased
Boston registration might in
dictate that the COP voters are
lining up to take over the state.
Naturally this is denied hotly by
the Democrats, but they seem
worried just the same. Bob
Bradford, however, can not be
overlooked as a potent political
threat to Tobin Bradford, a
liberal, is very popular here and
he may be our next Governor;
and the sweep would naturally
send Mr.. Lodge to Washington.
All this remains to be seen.
Lodge has been in the Armed
Services and he can be vocal
and aggressive when he is so in
clined. A COP win would place
Lodge and Saltonstall together
in the Senate. but Democrats
are wagering this will never
hoppen. The Massachusetts
Congressional race, like that of
New York and other states. is.
of course, holding the national
spotlight Plenty of money is be-
ing put out on all sides and the
posters are big and bright, even
clever in some slogans and de-
sign. But it is the voter here
and elsewhere who will have the
real power in this campaign.
And as the contest editors al
ways say, their decision will be
final. Women will figure very
largely in this decision.

There Is in Washington a COM
mittee of the House which was
created TO rthe purpose of in
vestigating un-American activ-

to be one of the most glazing ex?

Hitler used antiSemistism to

The AMERICAN COLORED VOTER
FOLDS KEY TO NOVEMBER ELECTIONS
By ABE ATTUCKs

This is an off-year election

But we must not in the fever
isr excitement of local cam
paigns, lose sight of the over
all national vote on State and
Congressional candidates Tues
day, Nov. 5.
FIVE MILLION VOTES =
To assume that the local
campaigns for State and Con-
gressonal Offices are all-import-
tant to plead total ignorance of
the national political picture. 1t
is not merely important how
Massachusetts will line up its
electoral college vote alone.
There are states like New York,
Pennsylvania and Illinois which
are just as important in assem-
bling the political blocS to show
whether the United States is
headed Democratic or Republic
can. And, as the Chicago De-
fender observed last week, there
is another barometer being
keenly watched blythe two major
party headquarters, and that is
the so-called colored vote of
over five million, capable of
settling the issue as we have
settled so many others. This is,
indeed, the focal point of many
political eyes today, and prac-
tically all colored people includ-
ing the new voters" Of the
South are very keenly aware
of 1t.

 Stranger-How is your cotton coming on?
 Cracker-Aint got none.
