THE STATEMENT

THE STATEMENT points
out that the arrest was illegal
as the police didn't see any law
breaking committed, nor did
they have a warrant. 1t also
contends that bail was unneces-
sary as Pride had no previous
police record.
The organization charged that
Judge Zuris acted contrary to
legal procedure when lie refused
to listen to the defense counseTs
motion. The statement declares

An Edit oriul
The Independent Vote

This week had the late results on what was an
extremely important precedent in Chicago politics - the
campaign of three independent legislative candidates in
the November election.
Dorothea Allen, Sylvia Woods and Claude Lightfoo
not elected to the Assembly in Springfield.
But the substantial vote piled up by both Allen and
Woods has the most important political meaning in
period in which the people and more seeking
their candidates against the candidates of the
old party machines
Claude Lightfoot was in fact such strong candl
date that machine politicians went out of their way to
have him ruled off the ballot Nevertheless, under
the extreme handicap of written VOTE Lghtfoot made
a remarkable showing.
IN ALL three independent campaigns the response
of the people stirring demonstration of political
aWareneSs.
All three campaigns were made in the face of the
most trying difficulties, the obstacles in getting the
ballot in fulfilling the many fineprnt technicaties in
the elections, and in overcoming the intricate ballot
splitting problems These battles fought in the face
of the corrupt practices, the big money campaigns and
the gangstesm and the voteSteang tactics of the
entrenched political machines.
These campaigns supported and paid for by
the people in these communities. 1t the people
themselves who rang doorbells, who campaigned bril-
antly and relessly, and who brought out the vote.
THE lessons of these campaigns extremely
liable For here is body of independent political action
experience that will the people in the bitter elect
oral struggles ahead.
Allen Woods and Lghtfoot did not win seats in the
legislature But they did win tremendous victory
