The Monitor (circulation 1915-1929) published "Praises Efforts of Little Rock Negroes" on May 6, 1927. While the newspaper article does not directly mention John Carter, the article refers to "the latest lynching," suggesting that readers were both aware of the race riot in Little Rock without the necessity of naming it outright.
