PRESIDENT HARDING
WILL NOT FAIL US
: SAYS NOTED WRITER

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, d. c. June 30.-Pres-
ident Harding has refused to com
mute to life imprisonment the death
sentence of William H. Turner,
Washington Cd. CO. colored, who shot
and killed T. Morgan Moore, of Alex
andria, on the night of April 26 last
on the Virginia end of the highway
bridge over the Potomac. He was ex-
ecuted Friday morning. The offense
occurred on Federal property and the
man was taken away from the Ar
lington county authorities after a num-
ber of lynching parties had been mar
rowly averted by the strategy of
Sheriff Jack Clement in sipiriting his
prisoner from Jail to Jail under cover
of darkness and finally landing him in
Richmond a week later.
Turner held up Moore while he
was sitting in his automobile with
Miss Pearl Clark, secretary to Con
gressman Britten, of Illinois, and af-
ter shooting his victim, dragged
Miss Clark from the automobile.

water went dry and it was necessary
to lay their pipe line down to Pages

1t is estimated that the contractors
have just about enough material on
hand to finish the work here so with
ordinary luck the work will be fin

NUMEROUS NOTABLE. LAWSUITS PENDING.
Federal Supreme Court Con- venes Today-Corona Coal
 Company Case on Docket

Washington. February 27-(Special.)- Decisions in some of several cases of na- tional importance may be handed down will end a months recess taken to study and reach conclusions in issues prev iously argued.
 Among the cases in which arguments have been heard are several expedated at the request of the government on the ground of their importance to the public welfare, but it does not necessarily fol- low that decisions in any of these will come tomorrow.
 The appeal of Senator. Truman II. Newbury. republican, Michigan. from conviction for conspiring to violate the election jaws was heard by the court far ahead of it's turn because the govern n.ent said it was necessary that Mir. NewBurby's claim to his seat be decided if possible before the session of the new Congress expected to be called shortly
 Two internal revenue cases-the so- called invested capital and capital assets cases-which have been argued. have been declared of first importance in con- nection with the federal finances. Hun dreds of millions of dollars in excess profits taxes must be returned if the government loses both or either of these suits.
 Ten cases lnVolVlng the validity or the Lever act. the weapon of the govern ment in fighting profiteering, have been waiting judgement as has the single case brought to test the farm loan act. IF Atherton Mills vs Johnson the cour, has before it the question of the consti- nationality of the law imposing a special tax on products of child labor moving in interstate commerce.
 Organized labor has vital interests at stake in two suits already heard-that of the United Mine Workers against the Coronado Coal company, involving the immunity of labor organizations funds from attachment for damages caused by strikes, and seconot~ suit involving the right of union to order and prosecute peaceful piclseting. Labor leaders de- clared that the very foundations of the structure they have reared in the past n years are based on the issue involved in these two cases.
