 Relief is asked not alone for the future, although that is of extreme importance, but also for the past, for if our contentious are correct, then the men whom we represent have been unjustiy deprived of the provisions of their agreement of 8 l-3 per cent of the compensation after the effective date of the Economy Act of 1892, and Is per cent of their compensa- ton after the effective date of the Economy Act of 1933 We respect fully urge that proper steps be taken not only to secure full compensation for these men for the future, but also that refunds be made to them of that part of their compensation of which they have been unjustly deprived under the Economy Act of 1892 and the Economy Act of 1933s ,, Y7-I I

.HABEAS CORPUS
DENIED LEE

BALTIMORE, Oct. 25.-Federal
Court judges here yesterday de-
MED a writ of habeas corpus for
Fuel Lee, colored convicted MUIR
derer scheduled to hang Friday.
This decision came after the
presentation of argument in
favor of the writ by Charles Nc
Henry Howard, appointed attor-
ney for Lee Monday after Ber-
nard AIDES, the colored mans at
torney during his two-year fight
for freedom, was barred from
practice before the Federal Court
here. The hearing yesterday
lasted for three hours.
The judges, William c. Cole
man and w. Calvin Chestnut,
also declined to issue a certifi-
cate of probable cause, without
which an appeal. cannot be taken.
but suggested that such a GER
tificate could be issued by a
judge of the United States Cir
cult Court for the fourth circuit
at Richmond. 1t also was learned
that AIDES suspension from prac-
ticing before this court would not
prevent him from appearing be-
fore the Richmond court to re-
quest such certificate.
AIDES Immediately determined
to go to Richmond today to make
application for the certificate.
Howard, in his argument yes
terday, pointed out that although
the Lee case had been refused a
review by the Uniedt States Su-
preme Court on an application
for a writ of certiorari, there
was nothing to show why this
action was taken and that, under
previous Supreme Court decisions,
the Federal Court here has the
right to issue the writ.

Another factor entering into the

that both Senators King and Nc.

else have the mail hearings post
