TO any rape When Prosecutor
Knight failed to get Patterson to
change his story despite rapid-fire
questioning, Leibowitz, demanding
that the Attorney General show
courtesy and respect to the Negro
boy. I'm not ashamed Of the way
I'm treating this witness" Knight
replied.
Patterson replied to the hostile and
insinuating questions in soft, calm
voice. knights method is illustrated
in the following:
@. 49, Did you pick up Victoria
Price in your arms and held her over
the side of the gondola? A.-No,
sir, did not see any girls on that
train.
Q.--Who did you see raping those
girls? A.--No, sir, I told you did
not see any girls.
Patterson freely admitted the fight
with the white boys who nolested
them. at the same time vehemently
denying the rape charges.
Fireman's Questioning
Under questioning by Gen. George
w. Chamlee, chief defense attorney
Percy Kicks, a Negro railroad fire
man on the Scottsboro train added
important new testimony. sharply
contradicting the story told by Vic
toria Price.
II saw them both (the two girls)
running up toward the engine he
said. Some of the men with shot
guns came around and headed them
off. Then they turned and ran the
other way until another batch Of men
came up from that direction and
stopped
Kicks said that he was standing
rear the water tank in front of the
train when he saw the girls climb out
of the box car and run excitedly TO-
ward the engine when the train stop
ped A few minutes later they were
caught by deputies coming from both
sides after them.
This completely supports the de-
Tense contention that Victoria Bates
and Ruby Price sought to run away,
fearing arrest for vagrancy, and told
the rape" story only after they had
been held in jail in Scottsboro. The
witness also supported the previous
testimony of the defense that the
boys were in different, widely-separ-
ated cars and were not found to-
gether with Victoria Price, as claimed
by the prosecution.
DR.. E. E. Reisnsn, Chattanooga gy-
necologist, was also called. He tes-
titled that Victoria Prices story that
she was attacked by six of the Ne
gro boys an hour before her exami-
nation at Scottsboro was inconsistent
with the medical evidence offered by
the prosecution.
He showed by means of charts that
it was impossible for Victoria Price
to have had relations during at least
eight to ten hours before She and
Ruby Bates were examined by Dr.
Bridges of Paint Rock.

Forced Labor Camp Workers VIII Not Get
Paid; Their Wages Are tor Dependents Relief

WASHINGTON, April 6.-On Or
ders from Roosevelt, the war depart
ment is preparing to transport the
first contingent of men, who will be
assigned to forced labor. This mobil-
ization will involve $4,000 workers.
Only men from the age of 10 to %,
are being hired just as In the army.
A condition is made that the re-
cruit must allow major part of his
$50 pay for the month to be sent
directly to his dependents. This takes
away complete responsibility from
the government and existing relief
agencies to feed the families of these
workers.
Thousands Lose Relief.
Roosevelt places a quarter of mil
lion men into forced labor camps at
a dollar day and cotnpels these men
to feed their families for the money
they get. When this program is fully
in effect it will mean that tens of
thousands of families will be stricken
from the relief lists. 1t will further
take way responsibility from the
bosses and their government and
place the burden of privation and
suffering more on the shoulders of
the workers.
400 Demonstrate Against Increased
Forced Labor Hours.
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, April g.
Over 400 demonstrated at the Welfare
Board against the decision increas-
ing the hours Of forced labor per man
for the same amount Of relief. The
ruling will compel the unemployed to
work 2 days a week when getting "a
to SIS week in relief. Before the
requirement was only one day.
A resolution was unanimously sup
ported to "refuse to work the added
hours, organize into unemployed COM
mittees and strike on the job"
AS a result of this fight many
joined the Unemployed Councils. It
also increased the support for the
State Hunger March which will be
held on May First.

time today. I'm afraid of what will
happen if I am free" the boy told
his mother. The mother wept,
Leibowitz moved for mistrial at
least three times during today's ses-
sion due to improper questioning of
the witness by Prosecutor Knight. The
state introduced the letter written by
Ruby Bates to Earl Streeter denying
the rape, and then an affidavit pur-
ported to be signed by her denying
the truth of the letter. While the
letter to Streeter was in her own
handwriting. the affidavit was not,
and the witness declared that she did
not know Of the contents of the af-
fidavit.

affair is manufactured lie," declared
Leibowitz, referring to the first trials,
during his heated arguments with
Prosecutor Knight.
More than score Of protest tele-
grams denouncing lynch prepara-
tons against the Scottsboro boys
were received today by Prosecutor
Knight in the courtroom from IL
D. branches in Chicago, Boston, New
York and other cities. Similar wires
continued to pour in throughout the
day.
Hates Protest
During the height of cross-exami-
nation, Knight was handed another
wire Of protest which angered him
SO he slammed it down upon the
desk without uttering word.
Taking the witness stand in the
trial Of Haywood Patterson earlier in
the day, Lester Carter, one OF the
white youths thrown off the freight
train following a fight between the
Negro and white boys, took the stand
in the trial of Haywood Patterson
also fatty contradicted the story
told by Victoria Price.
LeiboWitz, questioning Carter, drew
from him significant admissions OF
intimacies with Victoria Price prior
to the time she charged she had been
assaulted by the Scottsboro boys. Al
though Mrs. Price previously had
testified that she had spent the night
before the asserted attack in q
Chattanooga boarding house, Carter
declared that she spent the night
with him in a hobo camp. He also
testified that he had been a frequent
visitor at her home.
Met Price Girl in Jail
Carter told how he met another
white youth, Jack Tiller, on a chain
gang in Huntsville, Ala, while serv-
ing a 50-day sentence, and Of meet
ing Victoria Price for the first time
in the Huntsville jail, later making
the acquaintance of Ruby Bates, who
came to the jail as visitor. He then
related how, after his release from
jail together with Tiller, he renewed
acquaintance with the girls, spend
ing the night of March % with them
in "hobo jungle" aboard freight
train in the Huntsville railroad yards,
where they planned a trip together

READ LABEL ON BOTTLE
BEFORE USING ANY DRUG
Carelessness May Cause Irrepar-
able Damage And Even Death

When Mrs. Brown-that is not her
real name, but it will answer the
purpose-had her glasses changed a
few weeks ago, her oculist gave her a
prescription for some eye drops to be
used just before going to bed. She
had the prescription filled and tucked
the bottle away in her medicine chest.
When she was ready for bed she took
out what she thought was the right
bottle-she did not bother to read the
lakeland dropped two or three drops
not of the eye medicine-as she sup
posed, but of a lotion containing a
dilute solution of carbolic acid and
glycerine, in her eye. Fortunately,
she had plenty of warm water and
other means for immediate relief,
right at hand. Fortunately, again,
though she had to endure several
hours of excruciating pain, she was
spared any permanent damage to her
eyes.
"Mrs. Browns experience shows
strikingly how very important it is
to read the label before using any
kind of drug or medicine" DR.. R. l..
Swain, Deputy Drug Commissioner
of the Bureau of Food and Drugs of
the State Department of Health, re-
marked in telling the story. "Inci-
dentally," DR.. Swain continued, "the
story is true one, and it is only one
of many similar happenings that have
been brought to the attention of this
Bureau recently. Luckily for Mrs.
Brown her experience had a happy
ending. But the careless handling of
drugs does not always end that way.
1t is more likely to cause not only
agonizing suffering, but frequently is
responsible for unnecessary and ire
parable damage and even death.
"The incident is a reminder, too, of
the old, old adage regarding place
for everything and everything in its
place. In the haste and hurry of our
present way of living, the medicine
chest is likely to have scant attention.
1t is a convenient place for dumping
odds and ends of medicines and drugs
"a place to reach into when emer-
gency aid is needed for sudden ill
nesses or household accidents. But
it is not until something like Mrs.
Browns experience occurs that it is
regarded as a sourse of possible dan
ger.
IF you have not cleaned out your
medicine chest recently, don't wait
until housekeeping time to get at it.
Get rid of the old things that you
have no further use for; arrange the
rest so that you can find them when
you need them; separate the ones
that may be source of danger from
the rest; place them so that you can
see the labels and READ THE LA
BEL BEFORE YOU USE ANY OF
THEM"

The Vulgate preserves from cen
fury to century the Scriptures in q
language which does not change
since it is no longer one of the spoken
languages of the world: thus, while ii
may not be a very faithful transla-
ton of the Hebrew, as some scholars
affirm, yet it aids in preserving the
ancient landmarks of the faith of our
fathers and will be increasingly valu-
able in centuries to come for compari-
son in the every increasing flow of
translations.
The Vulgate never can be the Bible
of the people, for only scholars, famil-
lar with the Latin language, can read
it. However, the preservation of the
Scriptures in the though forms of the
Hebrew, Greek and Latin languages
has an abiding value in the dissent

revelation. These translations must
ever remain as the store houses OF

THE MARYLAND BIBLE SOCIETYS CORNER
''The Word of Our God Shall Stand Forever

Before leaving the subject of the
Vulgate translation of the Holy
Scriptures, it should be mentioned
that the Council of Trent, in 1916,
made the Vulgate the standard text
of the Bible. The Council declared
that "in public lectures, disputations,
in preaching, and in expositions, it
shall be held as authentic, and that
no one shall dare or presume, on any
pretext whatever, to reject it."
1t must be remembered that sew
eral editions of the Vulgate were in
existence at that time, so it became
necessary that either the Council it.
