Negro Democrats gain steam in race for party unity

The Indianapolis Negro Democratic convention drew about eighty delegates and featured leaders like J. Milton Turner and Professor Peter H. Clark. Turner heads a nationwide committee to mobilize black voters, with a new Washington Negro paper and coordinated Democratic literature.
