Tax Payers' League referendum on proposed white way
A 1925 Americus circular urges voters to back a white way lighting plan with ballots at Judge W. T. McMath’s store. It lists counting by three residents and hints at tax shifts and assessments while defending fair treatment of Catholics, Jews, Protestants, and Negroes amid local dispute and a rebuttal letter from Col. W. W. Dykes.
