Ell PASO, Tex, July 19.-Reaffirma-
ton of an opinion that the State Dem
ocrstic Committee, as individuals and
not as State agency, has q right to
bar colored citizens from participation
in a party primary, was voiced here to-
day BY Judge Charles A. Boynton, OF
the United States District Court.
He dismissed the application of
Luther Wiley of San Antonio who
sought to restrain the Bexar County
Democratic Executive Committee from
carrying out instructions of the State
Committee to refuse colored people a
vote in the primaries.
In handing down its decision, the
court cited its holding In the Nixon vs..
Congdon case in 1929, involving the
same question.
THE court held in the Nixon case
that the Democratic Executive Com
mittee and the County Committees are
not governmental agents." Judge Boyn-
ton says.
oliver w. johnson Of San Antonio. Of
counsel for Wiley. said the matter
would be pressed further and an APP
plication for a writ of niandamus prob

In face Of the State Committee's
action in disqualifying colored people,
the County Executive Committees of
McLennan and Val Verde Counties
voted to let them participate.

Brooten Had Costly Fire
Early Tuesday Morning
Stock of Nelson Mercantile Conn
pany Completely Destroyed
Hard Blaze to Fight

The village of Brooten suffered a
severe fire about 600 o'clock Tues
day morning when the store of the
Nelson Mercantile Co., owned by
John Nelson, was found to be on
fire. It was a stubborn fire to fight
and it was not until 1870 that the
fire was under control. A special
sale had been in progress for some
time and was about completed. The
stock was a general one and was
one of the best stores in that Sec
tion of the county.
The loss on the stock is complete.
The fire was contained within the
building where it started.
It is understood that the stock
would invoice about $4,000 and that
Mr.. Nelson carried insurance.
Plans have been made for the inn
mediate re-entry into business.
This is the second serious fire
Brooten has suffered within short
time.

Father Attempts to
Rescue Children in Flames
Mother Confined to st. Cloud Hos.
pital Awaiting Operation, Too
Ill to be Told of Tragedy

Three children were dead Friday
as the result of one of Stearns
county's most gruesome fires which
occurred near st. Anthony early
that morning at the farm home Of
Charles Gerads. The dead are
Martha and Martin Gerads, ages
and respectively, who burned to
death, and Jerome Gerades, 8. who
died from suffocation Is minutes
after having been rescued from the
burning farm home. The mother is
in the St. Cloud hospital awaiting
an operation. Because of her alb
sence from home, two more chill
dren are alive today as they had
been removed from the home to
the residence Of relatives. They are
Bernard, aged 2, and Joseph who
was born last March.
The father and hired girl, Miss
Ida Harren, had left the house at
some time between 5 and 6 o'clock
Friday morning to do the usual
chores about the farm. Before
leaving Mr., Gerads built the fire.
After milking for some time Mr..
Gerads left the barn and found the
house in flames. The three chill
dren were in a room on the second
floor of the structure and he made
two successful attempts to reach
them. His third attempt, however,
was successful and he succeeded in
reaching the bedside of Jerome.
Frantic efforts were made to rescue
the other children but each time
flames repulsed the rescuers, Je-
rome was carried from the flaming
building, unburned, but died Of suf-
location within Is minutes of the
time he had been carried out.
The Albany fire department was
called but the blaze had gained
such Roadway that further rescue
efforts were impossible and the
home is now total loss, still con-
cealing the whereabouts of the body
of one of the children. One little
body had been recovered at noon,
severely burned.
All three children had been at the
home of Mrs. Gerads' parents un-
til about IL o'clock last evening
when they were taken to their own
home for the night by their father.
Because of the age of the two
younger children it was decided to
leave them with their grandmother
over night. Mrs. Gerads entered
the st. Cloud hospital on Novem-
Der 20 but her condition has not
yet warranted an operation she
must undergo.
Following a consultation between
the grief stricken father and a
physician this morning, it was de-
cided that the mother not be in
formed of the tragedy at this time.
Whether or not it will be possible
to tell her before her operation
could not be determined.
Just how the children met death
will never be known. The house
was so totally destroyed that it
was impossible to determine the po-
sition of the bodies when overcome.
The one body recovered from the
debris indicates that the little child
had collapsed on or near its bed.
And how the fire started will also
remain a mystery.
