Afro-American backs Stevenson Sparkman for president

The Afro-American, a leading Negro weekly with 205000 circulation on the Atlantic seaboard, endorses Democratic nominees Adlai E. Stevenson and John Sparkman. The front page editorial says the party’s civil rights plank is stronger and aims to end filibuster to pass civil rights legislation. It notes Stevenson supports the platform and contrasts it with Eisenhower’s rejection of the civil rights plank.
