They arrested 250 persons In raids on several Rondo Street dives In St. Paul and not a word about race. Days later a picture appeared inside the Minneapolis Star showing the line-up at police headquarters and they were all black as I suspected. knowing the Rondo Street district and what the Negroes are doing too. I've been a dyed-in-the-wool Republican all my life. Now I'm ready to join the Dixiecrats or a Third Party. Not only should the Supreme Court be impeached, but Eisenhower also."
