of the constitutional rights Of Lee
and the entire Negro People in the
exclusion of Negroes from the juries
which tried" him and found him
guilty Of numbering white farmer
and his family, despite the over
whelming evidence of his innocence.
Petitions Filed
The petitions for writs of habeas
corpus and certiorari, were filed
Monday by AIDES and Levinson. The
writ Of certiorari demands his re-
moval from the Jurisdiction Of the
Maryland court.
Dark hints of professional miscon-
duct" in Fuel Lee case, unsubstan-
tiated in any way, were thrown out
by Judge William G. Coleman as he
announced he would not permit
AIDES to practice in federal court un-
til he had "purged his record" and
that he had information" on the
basis of which he refused to admit
Levinson to the bar.
This action was characterized by
LID. representatives as resulting
from "a fascist directive from the U.
S. Supreme Court to the federal
courts"
This court has been Informed
through records and other sources
that Mr.. AIDES conduct in this and
other cases has been unbecoming a
member Of the bar" Judge Coleman
said, referring to the militant de-
Tense Of Lee and other victims of
white ruling class oppression in
Maryland. 1T is a question as to
whether or not he has acted in god
faith in the manner in which he in
jected himself into this and other
cases"
The reference here was the protest
made by AIDES against the lynching
of George Arnwood, and the recent
frame-up of Page Jupiter, Negro
worker.
DUTY Of Court"
ut is the duty of this court to
bar Mr.. AIDES from practice unless
and until such time as the court is
enabled to decide whether or not
there exists a violation of ethics.
1--WE have prima facie evidence
that the requirements of this court
have not been lived up to and we
are investigating the reports. Mr..
Levinson, who has not been admit
ted to practice in this court, will not
be permitted to practice until such
time as he can show cause why he
should be permitted to practice here.
This court will not accept the ad-
mission Of any attorney upon the
recommendation of Mr.. AIDES"
When Levinson protested against
this Hitherto fashion of excluding
defense attorneys, Judge Coleman
answered:
Eve have information and we will
make an investigation"

Food Rises
p Per Cent
Since March

Startling revelations at rs per
cent increase in the daily cost of
living, accomplished as a result of
the Roosevelt program, have Just
been made public In a report COM
pleted after many months Of
painstaking research.
The report, undertaken under
the direction Of the Labor Re-
search Association, reveals that the
United States government statis-
tics, even though unable to con-
ceal the rise in living costs, new
ertheless, do not reveal the full exc
tent Of the upward sweep in the
cost of living resulted from the
Roosevelt infiationary program.
A picture Of increasing hardship
for every family in the struggle for
food is given by the report.
An unmistakable increase in the
hardship of the daily struggle for
food Is plainly indicated in the re-
port.
BY ROBERT w. DUNN
Food prices at chain stores in New
York City have risen % per cent
between the middle of February and
the middle Of October, according to
an investigation just completed for
Labor Research Association by the
Pen and Hammer organization. The
Pen and Hammer will continue to
keep a monthly food price index and
Will hereafter issue similar reports
on price rises at regular intervals.
The Pen and Hammer index, &C
cording to the statement accom-
panying the report, differs from the
bourgeois food price indexes in that
1t makes minimum of statistical
assumption. For example, 1t does not
assume a demonstrably nonresident
normal distribution of prices. And
1t does not pretend to base itself
upon the actual starvation diet of
the masses under capitalism. H.
stead, a reasonably decent dietary
for a family of five, the one, in fact,
recommended by the Children's Bu-
reau of the U. S. Department of La
Dor, was selected and the changes
in the prices of these amounts and
varieties of food were investigated"
In order to make sure that no
greater relative bargains were in
cluded in the February prices Qargely

N YEW YORK, February 22.-Their
M title hopes in the balance, the
champion Princeton Tigers
clash with Yale's sensational
Bulldogs in the Princeton Gym today
in the game that may decide the 1888
title of the Eastern intercollegiate Bas-
ket Ball League.
A victory for Yale, now leading the
league with seven victories and one de-
feat, automatically will clinch the title
for the Ellis Princeton, holding second
place with three victories in five starts,
must win if the Tigers are to continue
in the running for the title they won
in a play-off with Columbia last year.
Even if beaten today. Yale still can
assure itself of at least tie for the
title by winning its last league game,
against Cornell, at New Haven March
Z. Princeton, in that event, would need
to march through al its remaining
games without defeat to tie the Ellis and
force a play-off.
Yale boasts a crack all-around quin-
tet featuring the phenomenal sharp
shooting ability of Earl Nikkel, the
leagues leading scorer. Nikkels run
ming mate at forward, Carson Elliott,
and the big center, Capt. Bob O'Con-
nell, also are shots of better than av-
erage skill. Ben Reese and Eggie Miles
man the guard posts.
Princeton probably will start with
Ken Fairman and Lank Seibert at for
