court here to Chicago federal au-
thorities to pick up Clarence c. Car

tify before the grand jury sometime
ago, but has refused to do so. The
writ requested Chicago federal au-

Prior to the primaries, Talmadge
admonished Negroes to remain
away from the polls. He said there
would be an attempt to mix the races
in schools, on buses and trains and
in other public institutions, if he
were not elected. His threat to have
Negroes removed forcibly from
Pullmans while riding trains in
Georgia is not regarded seriously,
for although he did make some ut
terances against the federal gov
ernment, few believe he will pull
Uncle Sans beard, which would be
the case if he carried out his threats.

Rural Negroes Could Haue
Whipped Mr.. Talmadge

WASHINGTON, July 25 (ANP)
"A calm review of the Georgia sit
uation shows that Talmadge, white
supremacy advocate, could have
been defeated if Negroes in the
heavily populated rural counties had
rallied to the cause and cast their
votes, according to some observers
who have studied the results.
Under Georgia's county unit sys-
tenn, heavily populated counties
have six unit votes, counties of me-
dunn population have four unit
votes and every county has mini
mum of two votes. Of the 410 unit
votes in the states 159 counties, 242
could be furnished by two-vote
counties.
Talmadge received large majori-
ties in counties having heavy Negro
populations. The whites turned out
in unprecedented numbers. Most
Negroes were either disqualified as
voters, failed to register, or simply
neglected to vote.
There are more Negroes than
whites in 46 of Georgia's 159 coun-
ties. Mr.. Talmadge received the unit
vote of sc of these counties and also
got about the same proportion Of
support in sections where 35 to so
percent of the population are Ne
groes.
Most of the 100000 Negroes who
participated in the primary cast
their ballots in cities. Their partici-
patton in rural areas was almost
negligible. There are many reasons
for this. Chiefly, the opportunity to
intimidate Negroes was easier in the
rural area than in cities where police
and FBI men were on hand to pre-
vent any untoward incidents. The
FBI men were not in the right
places. Had Negroes in outlying
counties been afforded the same
guarantees by the actual presence
of peace officers, the selection may
have assumed a different complex
ion.
Although Negroes gained on the
whole, participating in primaries
for the first time since Reconstruc-
tion days, the leaders are aware that
more emphasis must be placed on
voting. Much concern is being ex-
pressed over the racial animosity
which Talmadge stirred up in his
campaign and there is also feel
ing that the recently revived Ku
Klux Klan received a ''green light"
from the election results. He openly
stated several weeks ago that he
welcomed the support of the Klan
and is said to have been aided by it

 The current food shortage is the worse ever recorded in the history of France, the speaker related. People also underwent great hard ship during the past winter due to the lack of fuel.
