Of the five colored candi-
dates for state representative,
only one, Lincoln Pope, Demo-
crat, in Ward 8, was elected.
His vote was 1859; his OPP
ponent Laurecne Banks, Re-
publican, received 2077 votes.
Ward IL went Democratic.
Harry ]. Elan, Republican,
4816 votes, Alfred S. Brothers,
Republican, 4805 votes.
In Ward 5 Mrs. Alberta
Turner, Democrat, polled 1925
votes. Wards 5 and 4 were
the only Boston wards that
stayed in the Republican fold.
Much significance attaches
to Pope's victory. AS a De-
mocrat, he is a "first". His
total Of votes was larger than
that of tSevenson in Ward 8 :
a fact which seems to indi-
cate that Pope's tally was in
creased by Republicans and
Independents.

Congress Must Act
In Vote Bar Cases

WASHINGTON, DC. Asst.
Attorney General Warren Oh
ney, Ill, told a group of re-
porters that ~Every excuse
and no excuse are still being
used in some Southern States
to keep colored from vot-
ing"
Olney, who is also chief of
the Justice Dept.'s Criminal
Division told also that Com
gress should hold public hear
ings on the subject, for the
process of criminal law is
clumsy and badly adjusted"
and not adequate to help the
colored vote.
He said the JuSticte Dept.
must wait until after the ell
ection before a case can be
brought up in court. Then
the Justice Department can
attempt to have Congress
draft legislation allowing the
Attorney General to go into
Federal courts for preventive
injunctions in cases where
colored were not allowed their
voting rights.
Olney insists that there
is nothing other branches of
Government can do. 1t is up
to Congress ITSELF he added,
to see that it abides by the
clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment of the Constitu-
ton which never has been
used but which calls for
reduction in the number Of
Representatives in Congress
fro many State that denies
the right to vote to any cit
izen.
