Braden Will Speak

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Kentucky newspaperman Carl Braden, out of prison on bail, will attack the court which convicted him of bombing a Negro friend's house, in a report on Southern segregation tonight at 8 p.m. in New Lecture Hall.

In 1954 Braden became a controversial figure when he bought a house in a white residential district and then resold it to a Negro war veteran, Andrew Wade.

He was sentenced to 15 years in jail, but is appealing this sentence.
