Georgia Republicans to Appeal
to National Organization
Opposing Negro
Atlanta, Oct. 16. Strong pressure
will be brought to bear on the re
publican national committee in an
effort to prevent seating of Ben J.
Davis, negro publisher and editor
of an Atlanta newspaper, as nation
al committeeman from Georgia, it
became known Thursday night. Da
vis was recommended as the accep- 1
table candidate of the state repub- !
lican central committee in executive
session of that body late Thursday
afternoon.
Davis received 43 votes, while his
opponents, W. R. Tucker, vice
chairman of the committee, and Dr.
W. H. Harris, negro, of Athens, re
ceived a total of 23. The contest
is to fill the place made vacant by
the death of Henry Lincoln John
son, negro committeeman from
Georgia.
The Georgia committee has only
the right to recommend a successor
to Johnson, according to rules of
the republican national oigamza
tion. Final decision and many lead
ing Georgia republicans will join
the move to prevent the recognition
of Davis, it is reported.
The state meeting was held at
Fulton county courthouse. There
are only 18 white members of the
state committee, and the negro vote
was the deciding factor in the bal
loting. Only one oallot was cast,
it was said.
Davis has been prominent in re
publican politics of the state for the
past several years, and Mr. Tucker
his chief opponent, formerly was
chief deputy marshal for the north
ern district of Georgia, but resign
ed last fall to manage the national
election for the republicans in this
state.

Negroes Os M’.irder Charge;
Says He’s Friend to Negro
CHICAGO, Oct. 17.—Clarence
Darrow, lawyer-philosopher of the
mid-west, has undertaken the de
fense of Dr. Ossian H. Sweet and
tpn other negroes now jailed in De
troit on a charge of murder.
The men, held without bail, were
arrested following a riot in the vic
inity of Sweet’s home on September
9, at which time Leon Breiner, a
bystander, was killed and another
man wounded.
“I’ve been a friend of the color
ed people.” Darro’w told the Unit
ed’ News as he prepared to leave
for Detroit. “I was brought up
that way. My father you See, was a
friend of John Brown.
Darrow said that he had under
taken the defense of the men at the
request of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People. Several years ago he was
defense lawyer for a number of
negroes arrested her e in connection,
with riot charges.
Darrow won national attention
for his. brilliant defense of Richard
Loeb and Nathan Leopold, million
aire killers, whom Darrow saved
front the noose. Last summer he
defended John T. Scopes, Tennessee
'school teacher charged with teach
ing evolution.

Ito 0 At rhe same time Ymeri '
ci.- High was defeated 'ey Colur.’.-' 1
bus High in Columbus, 39 to 6,
A report from the local A. & M. 1
school is to the effect that in the
last four minutes of play, Cochran'
attempted to pass, the ball was fum
bled, and Hogg of Americus, recov
ered the ball from Cochran, raced'
40 yards for a touchdown, before
the Cochran men knew what was
happening.
Die Cochran coach protested, en
tering into heated argument with (
the referee. Then the referee ruled
the ball a fumble, in favor ofshrdl
the local boys, the coach pulled h s
men off the field, thereby forfeit
ing the game. i
In the third quarter, Cochran in
tercepted a forward pass and made
their only touchdown, and failing
to place kick, were allowed 6 points.
Had Cochran finished the game
they might have at least tied the
score, as it was highly possible for
Americus to fail to place kick. This
would have made the score 6 to 6,
whereas the forfeit gave the score;
to Americus.
In Columbus, the Columbus High
walked away with -the Americus
High by the score of 39 to 6. We;
expected the Columbus boys to'
have an edge on the local bunch,!
but the size, of the score was a!
great ntrnent. The next!
nch had better watch for Ameri- 1
eus will be out for revenge on some
one.
