GEORGIA REVIYES
OLD SLAVE LAW
TO KILL HERND0N
Chain Gang Term Is
Blow At All Workers;
Rally Mass Protest
BY ELIZABETH LAWSON.

A slave law, formulated by the
white masters of Georgia before the
Civil War was fought, has been used
to send a young Negro organizer of
the unemployed to his death on the
chain-gang.
In the year 1861, when Negroes
were still held as chattel slaves in the
South, the slave masters, terrified
by the numerous uprisings of slaves
who preferred possible death to slav-
cry, and terrified also by the deter
mined agitation against slavery by
the white workers and free Negroes,
passed a law decreeing the penalty
Of death for melting the slaves
against their masters.
Resurrect Forgotten Law.
From the end of the Civil War up
to these times, that law has lain I'M
used and almost forgotten. Then the
slaves of today-the white wage
slaves, and the Negroes who bear the
double burden of wage-slavery and
national ppression-began to organ
ize together to fight their common
enemy, the white ruling class, and to
struggle against misery and starva-
ton, Once more the Slave Code was
brought forward. Two days ago

Release of Herndon!
By r.. N. HART

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 20.-The vi
ciouS class verdict sentencing Angelo
Herndon, Negro organizer of the un-
employed, to 10 to 20 years on the
murderous Georgia chain gangs has
evoked tremendous storm of protest
from white and Negro workers of this
city and many intellectuals. Hun
dreos OF protests are pouring in on
Judge Lee Wyatt and Assistant Pro-
Secutor Hudson Committees are
being formed among workers and lib
erals to mobilize mass support for the
appeal filed by John r. Geer and
Benjamin j. Davis, Jr., prominent
Negro attorneys for the International
Labor Defense. Bondsmen have been
secured to put up bail for Herndon,
despite the threat of the court to fix
exorbitant bail.
Attack on Toilers.
The workers, colored and white,
are increasingly realizing that the
prosecution and sentence of Herndon
is an attack directed against the ris-
ing struggles of the white and Negro
workers and poor farmers against
starvation, ruling-class terror and
war preparations.
Assistant Prosecutor Walter LIE
Craw, brother of the president of
the local chamber of commerce, open
" admitted in his arguments that
it was not Herndon who was on trial,
but the rising militancy and growing
unity of the Negro and white toiling
masses in their struggle against the
misery and hopeleSsness of the capt.

was not only Herndon whom the
state Of Georgia sought to remove,
but the Communist Party which is

BY the Associated Press.

SHANGHAI, China, January T.
Spread of an unofficial war between
Japan and China in Northern China
was regarded in foreign circles today as
an imminent possibility.
1t was estimated that at least 5000
japanese troops now were concentrated
at Shanhaikwan, China's northern rail-
way terminal which the japanese cap
tured early this week, and Chinese
were reported rushing reinforcements
to Chinwangtao, the port on the yellow
Sea, 10 miles westward
kilograms were pouring in on the
Nationalist government at Nanking
from various war lords throughout
China asking for orders to march
against the japanese. Among these
were Tsai Ting-Kai, who commanded
the 18th Route army which defended
Shanghai against the japanese last
February.
Can't Restrain People.
Chinese leaders here declared they
were determined to defend the province
Of Jehol against the anticipated Japa-
nese drive to bring that territory with
in the Manchukuo boundary. They
said further Japanese advance either
northWestward in that direction from
Shanhaikwan or further southwark
toward TientSin and Peiping would be
resisted. 1t has become impossible to
restrain the Chinese people further,
they said, ''.n the face CT the increasing
provocation of the japanese"
All hope that the League Of Nations
would be able to take effective action
in behalf of China apparently has been
practically abandoned.
The Chinese newspaper in Nanking
this morning printed a report from
Geneva, allegedly emanating from an
American source, that Great Britain
and France undertook not to interfere
with Japan in its Manchurian plans
when the Japanese troops were with
drawn from Shanghai last May.
Chang Dispatches Troops.
The report produced much indigna-
ton, Symptomatic of the growing ma
tional excitement.
A Pieping report said Marshal Chang
Hsiao-Liang was sending 5000 troops
from Tientsin to the LWan River, lead
ing from Jehol and about midway be-
tween Tientsin and Shanhaikwan
Chinese foreign Office officials indi-
Gated that the Nationalist government
has asked American and British lega-
tions to send military observers to
Shanhaikwan and Chinwangtao "in
order to obtain the facts" The Nation
alist government revealed that the Brit
ish charge d'affaires requested both
Japan and China to guard against any
activities on that battlefront that would

drew himself stifiy erect before the bier
of the former President, Saluted, and
then moved on.
The church door closed at $50, leav-
ing hundreds disappointed in the street
outside. The doors of the gallery then
were opened for the funeral services and
the seats promptly were filled.
The body was moved from the home
at $40 am. and taken to the church
to lie in state for an hour before the
funeral.
Children Follow Procession.
The hearse was preceded by a single
motor cycle officer and the undertaker's
car as it drove away from the home.
A small group of people, mostly chill
dren, was gathered at the gate of the
Beeches. Some followed the procession
on foot.
A crowd of several hundred persons,
apparently townspeople who had come
for the most part afoot to gaze for the
last time on the face of their diStir-
guished neighbor. stood in silence as the
casket was borne into the church.
Before the hower-banked altar the
casket was placed, and two National
Guardsmen-Sergt. John /. Manning
and Cerpl. Francis Lord of Company G,
the Northampton company of the 104th
Infantry--took their positions at It's
head and foot as guard OF honor.
The morning was cloudy, and the
distant hills were darkly etched against
a gray sky.
Shortly before the body of the for
mer President was taken to the church
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and James
Roosevelt, wife and son OF the PreSl-
dent-elect, arrived in Northampton from
New York They went to hotel for
breakfast.
The distance from THE Beeches" to
the church is about a mile, through
quiet streets bordered by huge old shade
trees. Here and there groups silently
watched as the cars drove by.
Inside the church the quiet was
broken only by the muffled tread of feet,
as the casket was borne up the aisle.
and whispered instructions as final
preparations were completed before the
crowd was admitted.
White ribbons had been tied across
the entrances to the Coolidge pew. Sew
eral pews in the front Of the church,
at the right of the pulpit, had
been reserved for President Hoover and
the other notables from Washington.
