Chicago, June 2, (ANP) Despite
written statements from the Worlds
Fair authorities to the Chica o Branch
of the National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored people to the eff
feet that there would be no discrim-
nation on the part of those having
concessions only last week the Adobe
House, restaurant frankly told col
ored people seeking meal there that
patronage was not wanted.
When Mr.. Leroy Miller and Mrs
Miller went in the place they noticed
that they were being ignored and that
white people were being served all
around them. After inquiring why they
were not being served and ignored they
finally got the commitment from the
waitress that their patronage was not
desired.
Gettiny this outright refusal they
took the matter up with the Associa-
ton who in turn Immediately referr-
ed the case to Attorneys Irwin Mollison
and William Temple, both of who are
members of the Legal Redress Comm
ittee of the Association. On Wednesday
in the Municipal Court suit was filed
against this concern.

Upholds Sentence For Educator
Uphold Sentence
For Bura Hlburn

Jackson, Miss, June 2, (ANP) De-
claring that the evidence was without
conflict and it showed appellants
guilt beyond all reasonable doubt, the
Mississippi Supreme court Monday af-
firmed the five years penitentiary SEN
tence of Bura Hilbun, former super
visor of Negro education in Mississippi
on charges of stealing $51, 900 Of Rosen-
valid funds allotted to Mississippi for
Ne 70 schools.
Attorneys for Hilburn arTued that the
donor of the Rosenwald funds has
never raised his voice in criticism of
the manner in which he administered
the fund therefore nobody else had
any right to complain, and that there
could be no embezzling of this fund
because it was a gift to the Negro chill
dren Of this state"
THE trouble about this argument is
that when appellant (Hilbun) embezzl-
ed part of this fund, the matter ceased
to be a private transaction the public
became interested in it." said the OPP
inion of the court, written by Judge w.
D. Anderson.
THE state had right to complain
as it did The donor of the fund could
not under the law, forgive the en-
bezzlement.
1T is true that the fund was a dom
alton for the education of the Negro
children OF the state, but the gift was
not complete until certain conditions
had been brought about by appellant
and others cooperating with him. Be
| fore these conditions came about, APP
pcllant committed the enlightenment.
At the time he did so the donor had
not turned loose all hold on the fund
and the donation had not been entirely
consummeted."

case of colored woman, Mrs. Rosetta
Briggs, who was forced to ride day
coach while sick from Chicago to Gulf
port, Mississippi, even though she had
through ticket from Salt Lake City to
Gulfport with stop over privileges.
WOMAN SICK
Last November, Mrs. Briggs, finding
herself in Salt Lake City, Utah, bou-
rht first class ticket through to Gulf
port, Miss, with stop-over privileges
at Chicago. She brought her Pullman
ticket to Chicago and her train ticket
called for the lest train out of Chicago
over the Illinose Central to Gulfport.
After being under the care of doctor
in Chicago and weak she applied for
a Pullman ticket and was told that she
would have to pay $40 for it or take
whole compartment or drawing room,
Other subterfuges made it plain that
she was not to be sold a ticket as other
white passengers were sold if she want
ed to go south. Attorneys Graham 7.
Perry and Herman E. Moore, members
of the LIE al Redress Committee of the
Chicago Branch of the N. A. A, c. P,
have taken the case and eniared suit
in behalf of Mrs, Briggs. The policy
