Action Of Group

YEMASSEE, S. c., Aug. 12.-
Some 25 or more white men, be-
lieved to be members of the Ku
Klux Khan from nearby Georgia
and the surrounding low country,
paid visit to the home of a col
cred candidate for the city council
here Friday night and forced him
to withdraw from the race.
The unmasked men called at the
home of J. B. Sinclair, a cafe pro-
prietor and not finding him home
told his wife to advise him against
remaining in the race, which ended
in election on Tuesday of this
week. Mr.. Sinclair said Saturday
that after talking the matter over
with several citizens of both races
here, he had withdrawn from the
race.
Local white business people
leaders were bitter in denouncing
the group declaring that all of
them were outsiders who had taken
it on themselves to NEEDLE into al
purely local affair. All Of them
have known and liked Mr.. Sinclair
for a number of years here and
many felt that he should not have
withdrawn.
One report said that several
white men had offered him phys
ical assistance in handling prop
erly any further callers.

Perry Howard
Republicans
Contest New State
Party Law

The Republican Party of Missis-
sippi headed by Perry w. Howard
for more than thirty years as Ma
tional Republican Committeeman
for Mississippi, and the only Ne
gro member Of the National body,
filed a petition here Monday, con-
testing the legality and constitu-
tionality of the recently enacted
state law regulating political party
organizations in the state.
The petition filed by Towards
attorneys states that the new state
law denies to the Howard group
rights given by the 14th Amend
ment of the Constitution of the
United States, as we'll as the Con-
stitution of Mississippi.
The Lilly-White Republicans,
headed by Ex-Governor Sheldon of
Nebraska, long and bitter foe Of
the Howard group in many a los
ing contest before the National
Committee and in the courts beat
the Howard group to the draw and
under the new law signed up as
the Republican Party of the state.
Under the new law, brought on
by the break between the regular
Democrats and the Dixiecrats of
the state, only one group can use
the name of a major party.
S. w. Miller, one time member
Of the Sheldon organization, but
how chairman of the state control
committee of the Howard organi-
zation, states that a hearing on
the petition will be heard in Sep
TENDER and decision should be
given before the 1852 Republican
Convention and the National Elec-
ton.

list Of the year." wraps his pipes
around a dreamy love balled, You
Dreamer You, effectively back

stringed-instrumental touch of the
Hugo WHITEWATER crew. The
effect is further heightened with
the dulcet-toned assist of the Ray

Surrender Dear (victor) A
pair of present-day vehicles are
chosen by Freddy Martin and

suave sophisticated style is at its
best on Santa Catalina, with
Wade and the Men on vocal. Flip

popular demand. (Victor).
An example of how record
companies dig back and come up
with a new promotion scheme for
a popular tune is best exhibited in
the case of John Philip Sousa's
stirring march, Stars and Stripes
Forever. Ralph Flanagan paired a
race-horse version of it with
Glannina Mia (Victor). Kay Kyser
has it, with Campus Kids on vo-

Buddy Yeager on a scat vocal, is
patterned somewhat after the Mil
