ASKS NEGRO VOTERS
TO BACK DAUGHERTY
Roscoe C. Simmons Says He Is One
of Few to Reward Colored
Republicans.

Roscoe conklinE Simmons. president
OF the Lincoln League and regarded
as one of the spokesman OF the Amer
lean negro, has issued the following
statement on the demand for cabinet
designations:
THE determination of Mr.. Daugh-
erty to stand his ground will please
every American citizen who hates a
coward. His decision to go to the
people will please every citizen who
likes q fighter. If the democrats
have got anything on the Attorney
General let them bring 1t out of Con-
gress and carry it to the people.
Daugherty OF wrongdoing. hurried,
but the Attorney General, defying his
political adversaries and adversaries
Of the republican party, takes his
time. To remove Mr.. Daugherty from
the scene Will, as they think. afford
the democrats clearer and happier
view of q November promise.
Republicans not frightened at
face-making and unmoved by sound
stand back of Mr.. Daugherty and
back of President Coolidge.
"Colored republicans, crucif1ed right
and left by the same hand busy erect
ing a cross for the Attorney General,
attach no little significance to the
fact that all the guns are trained on
one of the two members of the cabi-
net they deem to be interested in
the advancement of their race: Mr..
DauCherty, ablest Ohio republican
since Mark Hanna, ablest of all re-
nublicans, has rewarded the citizen
ship and party fealty of colored
Americans. Those interested might
examine the woodpile with surpris-
ing results.
"If Mr.. Daugherty goes to the peo-
nile. democrats in Congress Will have
10 go with him. Those who shoot

USE OF PADDLE"
BY TEACHER UPHELD
Shreveport, La, Principal Declared
Not Guilty of Assault
Upon Pupil.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SHREVEPORT. La, February ca
The wooden paddle has been recog-
nized by the courts of Louisiana as
a legal means of inflicting punish
ment on unruly school children, in
the case Of Miss Myra Woodward,
principal OF a local school, who was
free today after a trial In district
court on a charge of assault in con-
nection with the whipping of q six
year-old schoolboy.
On the witness stand, Miss Wood
ward admitted chastising the child
with small paddle, but claimed she
was within her rights in enforcing
the rules Of the school. Judge e. p.
Mills upheld tn principals claim, and
found her not guiltq.
Miss Woodward's vindication came
as a climax Of events which have
agitated the whole city for the last
week, following her arrest by the
sheriff's department on a warrant
sworn out by Mrs. C. L. Tamplin,
mother of Willie Roy Tamplin, the
recipient of the padding"
Miss Woodward, member of
prominent family. is a veteran Of
thirty years in school work, and her
arrest has been the subject Of dis
course by local ministers and the
press, as we'll as the chief topic of
conversation in social circles.
Testimony at the trial was con-
fiicting, several witnesses claiming
the principal hit the child "prattv
hard while the principals fellow
teachers testified the child was un-
ruly and the chastisement was not
excessive. The principal claimed
bruises laid to the padding were
suffered when the child fell down a
flight Of steps as he sought to escape
after she had begun using the paddle
on him for playing on the school
grounds after hours.
An interesting angle was added by
the fact that a number of youths
sent Miss Woodward a warning to
leave town at once. signing the note
*. K. K" This brought an offer Of
a reward of 500 from the Shreveport
Ku Klux Khan for the arrest and
conviction of the perpetrators Of the
act. Eight pupils in the school later
confessed to writing the threatening
missive.
Judge Mills said in acquitting the
teacher that the prosecution had
failed to show any malicious intent
on the part of Miss Woodward.
When a parent sends a child to
school," he said, the delegation Of
authority to school teachers is i'm
Piled" He added that the testimony
of the childs mother was that the
boy was hard to control and that she
instructed his teachers to paddle"

government filed similar suits in
various courts In an attempt to coll
