prospects are bright for an eX-

Maxwell Agrees
With MarshoII
On Vote Trend

Steve Maxwell. St. Paul attor-
ney and member Of the Ramsey
County Republican Civil Rights
Committee said this week there is
a definite trend among Negro
voters in Minnesota away from
the Democratic party and towards
the Republican party. The Demo
Gratis in Minnesota, as well as in
Washington, have done nothing
for the Negro.
In the last Minnesota state
legislature IT was the DFL Lib
erals that killed an Open Occu-
pancy law and in Washington II
was the Democrats that fought
so bitterly against civil rights"
Maxwell said.
Maxwelps remarks concur with
those Of Thurgood Marshall, Chief
Counsel for the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Col
ored People on Sunday, Septem-
Der Goth, when he predicted a ma
tionwide switch in Negro votes
from the Democratic to the Re-
publican party.
Marshall was also quoted as
saying, Il don't see anything that
the Democrats have done in civil
rights that viii 60 to their credit"
