They will have the truth about all these things in my State before the election comes in November. When they do get the truth. and the whole truth. no Democrat worthy of the name will permit the Raskobcontrolled 27 members of the Alabama State committee to deliver him or her into the hands of the RomanRaskob political party. When the Democrats of Alabama know that Smith stands for unrestricted Immigration and that his Tammany bunch voted to cut down the representation of the South in Congress since the election of 1928 they will repudiate him and spurn him. Yes. these Tammnany Democrats voted to cut down the representation of the South in Congress since the election of 1928 because the negroes demanded that they do it. And they obeyed because Alfred is going to run again in 1932 and they want to get the negro vote. and they are willing to pay large sums to certain socalled Democratic leaders in the South in order to carry out the Roman Catholic program regarding Alfred in 1932.
