Negro citizens being driven out of
North Platte.
On receiving this information I
immediately called the North
Platte chief of police and asked
for facts in the matter. I was
told, by th, answering party that
by night rot a Negro would be left
in North Platte, and that the riot
was beyond the control of the lo

would get in touch with him and
have him call me immediately. I
than proceeded to get in touch
with th-, attorney general with
whom I had had a pleasant ac
auaintarco for some years, the
Honorable C. A. Sorensen. I
placed a call for Mr. C. A. Soren
sen. I was successful in contact
ing him at oner. I told Mr. Sor
ensen of racial trouble in North
Platte. I told him in detail my
Conversation with the local auth
orities. Mr. Sorensen assured me
that hc would immediately get in
touch with the s tuation and do ev
erything within his power to bring
about law and order. Immediate
ly Mr Sorensen detailed his entire
force9 to take action. A deputy
from his office was sent to North
Platte to handle the matter under
Mr. Sorensen’s instructions. Mr.
Sorensen found that Negroes were
being driven out of town, their
homes set on fire and furniture
thrown out“lnto the street. Mr.
frorensen maintained a Deputy
general in thP city of North Platte
until every Negro that was mis
treated war compensated, homes
repaired and furniture put back
into condition and law and order
restored.
Today three of the men respon
sible for the irstigation of this
trouble are serving long terms in
the state penitentiary.
At the polls the Negro should
nnsider a candidate's record, es
pecially those that have had an
opportunity to make a record. Mr.
Sorensen has mad(. a record.
There is no doubt as to his quali
fieatiors and fairne:;s to all racial
groups, regardless of their color,
creed or previous condition of serv
itude.
I personally have had reason to
contact Mr. Sorensen in many in
stances in the irterest of the com
mon people and every time I have
contacted him, I have found him
willing to lend his position in the
interest of upliftine hr nanity.
Negroes of the State of Nebras
ka will make no mistake in cast
ing their ballot for Honorable C.
A. Sorer sen for Chief Justice for

Justice of Supreme Court
HE IS A LAWYER OF WIDE LEGAL EXPERIENCE, GOOD JUDGEMENT AND GREAT
COURAGE.
To the Sorensen-for-Chief Justice
Committee from many citizens have
come endorsements of the candid
dacy of C. A. Sorensen for Chief Jus
tice. They represent all walks of life
and all political faiths. We' quote from
a few:
Senator George W. Norris says:
“The most important issue before
the voters of Nebraska in the coming
election is the selection of a Chief Jus
tice. I feel keenly what a proper judi
cial System means to the future happi
ness and comfort of our people.
Sorensen’s election to the high office of
Chief Justice would help to keep our
highest court on a pedestal of ability,
honor and integrity above the influence
of narty machines and beyond the con
trol of selfish interests.”

From James C. Norgaard:
“In my tweqty years of dealing
with Mr. Sorensen I have found him to
be capable, fearless, honest and one
hundred perceni ior the best intersts
of the common people, I am sure the
citizens of'^ebrffska canno£ find a bet
ter qualified man than C. A. Sorensen
for Chief Jusjfc^JN
(Mr. Norgaard is manager of the The Farm
ers Union Coopepative Creamery Company, Su
perior, Nt-braska, one of the largest cooperative
creameries in the world.)
From Mrs. Nellie G. Benson:
“I admire Sqyensen for his rugged
honesty. He is one man that cannot be
influenced by selfish interests nor by
public hysteria.--And one thing more.
When he was Attorney General he did
not forget the common people who
elected him. Nebraska will be a safer
place for women and children and all
! honest folks when he is on the Supreme
Court.”
(Mrs. Benson was formerly President of the
Nebraska State Farm Bureau Federation and for
six years a member of the State Board of Control.)
Fromer Governor Arthur J. Weavers
says:
“Your administration of that high
office (Attorney General) was honest,
able and effective. I have always com
mended you, and commend you now,
for your industry nad personal atten
tion to the legal work of the state, your
spirit of fairness and your zeal in the
enforcement of law. I am sure that you
have the qualifications for the high
