SATURDAY.JULY 21, 1928 PERRY HOWARD’S PREDICAMENT. We read with much interest the account of the indictment of Hon. Perry W. Howard, the Republican leader of Mississippi’ by a grand jury In that State upon a charge of con spiracy. W? do not presume that there is a criminal lawyer of stand ing in this century, pho does not know that a charge of conspiracy Is one of the :nosr difficult allegations to prove and fo- that reason is sel dom appealed to rave for the purpose of affecting some other issues in a pending criminal case. It is not alleged that Howard took the money, but by the use of this dragnet, so to speak, the effort is made o supplant him in the political campaign new pending and to place in charge 'he “Lily-white element”, which was defeated at the Republi can National Convention at Kansas City. The bl.nv is not only one a'med at competent. Negro leadership, out at the “old line” white Republicans, who have always affiliated with colored men of the Perry W. How ard type. Similar tactics were resorted to in fho fight on Walter L. Cohen of Louisiana. The indictments were d:s- l missed. The grat;fying part of the j whole business is that Perry W. • Howard is -apabie of taking care of , himself. He is a high-toned. Christ !an gentleman. This kind of attacks can have but one effect. A reaction ■ will he observable among the South ern voting blacks, who have gone into 'h° Northern States and cat with telling effect give the Repub lican leaders nbo tolerate this kind , cf th'ng. Roland for their Oliver". T* < rc be hoped that they W 11 VC ice a protest. If the Republicans care to risk the lose of vo*°s. in that section of the Coun ry, where tl ere is a prospec* cf carrying a. State for the nnt onal t eke* in rde* to pander to Negro l o*!n<r anim siti 's in a State, where the electoral vote is already for “Al” Sm'th, before a vote has been cast in*o the ballot boxes of the nation. Tien let them proceed to do it- Gentlemen, you had better call eff your hounds, today: not tomorrow cr the next day. You had better call them off. today. Tomorrow or the next, day may be too late. “A hint to the wise is suff'eient.” You lad better call them (df. today. Colored p*-op’e should sthud squarely behind Terry W. Howard. He is the centra'1 figure, so far as colored people ia this country an. concerned today. He Is the em’y t political leader *ha* emerged from tbe Republican NaTonal Convention , unscathed, unafraid and with the , political power of a State within his grasp. They side tracked Walter L. j Cohen, the great Louisiana leader. , They “black lacked" the uncompro- j mising Ben Bavls cf Georgia. They threw out “Gooseneck Bill” McDon- , aid of Texas and now they are as- ! aassinaring Perry W. Howard of Mi'ssiss’ppi after he had won in the struggle. i Gentlemen, this kind of business will not do. vou must face an electorate of colored folks, both in the North and in *Jio South, but moo*, particularly in the North. What are you going ro do about it? “Al” , Smith is slated for a political beat- j mg. but. “There is many a slip , twixt the cup and the Up”. THE SMITH CAMPAIGN The militant w*ine of the Demo cratic Party, under the transcendent leadership of Governor Alfred E. i Smith, of New York, aided and pro moted by that superb political or-; ganization known as Tammany Hall, has captured the National Demo I cratic machinery. Dissenters must either take orders or yield their posi tions to either new or old comers, who will obey without question. In surrection and manifest disloyalty ' are being observed on all sides and • it will be something of a job to com plete the weeding out process, be fore or even after the campaign is well under way. The test of democracy is an oath of allegiance to A1 Smith, of New York, and his pronounced policy to modify the Eighteenth Amendment by means of a modification of the Volstead Act. This has resulted in the practical withdrawal of the “bone dry” element from the* Demo cratic Party. Robinson, of Arkansas, is all right with them, but Smith, of New York; is all wrong by the same process of reasoning. The virtual repudiation of the Prohibition plank in the platform adopted at Houston, Texas, was made by presidential candidate, Alfred E. Smith, and emphasized by the naming of John J. Raskob as Democratic National Chairman. He, in turn, declared himself to be in favor of whiskey in the home, as .a contra-distinction to whiskey in the saloon or other public places, llis record became at once a sten h in the nostrils of Southern people and a red flag in the eyes of the Ku Klux K!an bull. He is recog nized as a Republican and is a mem ber of the Union League Republican Club of Philadelphia. Couple this with the fact that he is a devout 1 Roman Catholic ar.d the reasons for “old time cussings”, so far as Gov ernor Smith is: concerned are com plete. - . The bands of the country can make “There’ll Be a Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight” a national anthem for the duration of this cam paign. Governor Smith’s National Committee officials announce that the amount of contributions will not be limited and that the Republican suggestion that the expenditures shall not exceed three million dol lars in the entire country was prac tically treated with disdain. In the meantime, the following question was propounded: ] ! L probable that Governor Smith’s campaign will cost more than that of other Democratic presidential candidates in recent years? There may be factors which will make it expensive, said Col. Lehman, in my opinion every State in the North, East and West may be con-, side-rod debatable ground. That may| increase expense. This, then tells the whole story. The “wet” element will furnish the “fats” from which the financial grease is to be obtained. W ill the plans so successful in New York State operate in the other parts of the country. New York Republicans elected “Al” Smith Governor of that State. Can New York Republicans aided by those from other sections of the country place him inside of the White House of the nation? If the South shall remain solid, they Fw may l>e able to bring about this modern miracle. In the meantime, the shifting and transfer of Repub licans from their old alignments to the Democratic Party is taking place and the steady tramp of rock-ribbed Democrats over into the barracks re cently vacated by them may be seen I from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Canada to the Gulf. !
