Banks Loses
Ward 9 Fight

Atty. Laurence H. Banks, Re-
publican and Independent can
didate for Representative in Ward
8, lost the election after a hard
fight with many odds against
him. The vote was 3125 for
Banks and 5285 for his opponent.
Ward 9 voters were deeply dis
appointed and are bitter about
the dishonest campaign waged
against him. First, his opponent
sought to link him with the Com
munist Party though he knows
Banks is Republican. Secondly,
colored voters were confused
when they saw a colored clergy
man leading his opponents cam
paign, which would have been
alright except in this campaign
it was not color against white
but matter of righting the
wrong done to Banks when the
votes that would have elected
him to the council were stolen.
Banks conducted a clean, hon
est campaign and his many
friends stand ready to help him
now and in the future.

completion of 80 years of service

In a plant ceremony marking

ager, presented Mr.. Campbell
with a gold, 3-year service pin.
Other company officials, super
visors, and fellow-workers ex-
tended their congratulations.
A native Of Essequebo, British
Guiana, Campbell joined Hunt
Spiller in October 1920 as a
laboratory assistant. He came to
the company with previous ex-
perience as an iron and steel

Big Democratic sweep showed
colored voters of Massachusetts
resent the attitude taken toward
them by anyone seeking their
suffrage but against their best
interests really. The Coolidge
hostility to the FEPC preventing
its passage in 1948 was resented
deeply by colored as well as by
their minority groups, as was
shown by their voting 4 to l for
Paul A. Dever. This was re-
fiected in the vote for the whole
Democratic slate.
Hon. Silas F. Taylor, head Of
the colored DENIS in Mass, say:
I'VE have in Governor Dever i
/ progressive. humane and liberia
leader who believes in equa.
opportunities for all, regardless
of creed or race or COLOR
The genial, able leader thanks
all those who assisted him in the
arduous work of getting out the
vote and helping him to carry on
as he has done the past several
decades, ever since he came out
for the democratic party and adj
monished his race to do likewise.
He also says the cooperation
given him by most of the demo-
cratic workers, headed by Rev.
E. 0. Woodhouse whose grace
and persuaviveness was an as
set to the whole democratic
ticket.
DR.. Taylor says that all through
the campaign he tried to cement
all the democratic forces over
the state in a concerted effort to
make the best showing in the
history of Democratic politics
where the colored votes are con-
cerned.
He is especially pleased at the
reception accorded Cong. w. L.
Dorson at the SPLENDID and en-
thusiastic meeting at the largely
attended rally in Symphony Hall
on the eve of the election. It was
an audience of solid voters with
no rabble and juveniles to crowd
the hall. He says he has had
many requests for Cong. Dorson
to return here at some future
date. The Congressman's sincere
appraisal of the democratic ad-
vantage to colored citizens was
especially effective.
DR.. Taylor further says colored
voters deserted the COP in
droves that never in history have
colored citizens rolled UP such a
solid democratic vote. It was
the result he says of the inten-
sive work on part of his commit
tee, holding meetings each night

SAVE MARTINSvILLE, I
MEETING SUN. NOV. IL

A meeting to protect the sched-
uled, Nov II, execution of the
Martinsville Seven in Martins
vile, Virginia, will be held on
Sunday, Nov. IL, at 8 P. M. at
the Women's Service Club, 464
Massachusetts, Ave.
Among the speakers scheduled
to speak are the Rev. Kenneth
De P. Hughes, Pastor OF ST. Bar
tholemews Church, Cambridge,
Philip Koritz Of the Civil Rights
Congress, Miss Dorothy Glasson,
State Co-chairman of YPA, has
celle Watts, Chairman of Club
Emancipation, YPA, Mrs. Maude
Trotter Steward, publisher and
editor of the Guardian and
Walter A. O'Brien, director of
the Progressive Party of Massa-
chusetts.
A musical program will be di-
rected by Mr.. Arthur Jones.
According to Mr.. O'Brien, it is
obvious that the Martinsville
Seven case is a close parallel to
the Scottsboro proceedings. The
seven men were tried and con-
victed in a rapid one-day trial.
The woman who complained of
being raped is the main govern
ment witness and has been miss
ing for over a year. The great
haste in prosecuting this case
under these circumstances is
typical of the frame-up methods
used in similar instances.
Only major, nationwide pro-
test to Governor Battle of Vir-
GINA can save these men from
execution, Mr.. O'Brien said. Four
men are scheduled to die on Nov.
18th and the remaining three
men on Nov. goth. Governor
Battle has the power to save
these men from legal iynching
