i seems to be that blackmail is no
cT~nse to the victim, but to the
state.
we are fortunate that in this case
there was a spare complaining wit
ness and that Mr. Baker is the
judge, instead of that task falling
to Mr.. Coleman.
Mr.. Coleman should stick to phil
anthropy. He seems to have a poor
grasp Of the principles of and rea-
sons for criminal law Benevolence
(well-wishing) and kindness are
sometimes incompatible with true
kindness, which would protect So
ciety from such things as blackmail.
Mr.. Colemans pleas and lynch
law are two extremes of the law
not taking its course; and each
breeds the other.

Your paper of Jan. IS carried a
news dispatch of the lynching Of
Rex Scott (NegrO) in Hazard, Ky.
We vigorously protest against the
f1ippancy and comedy used in de-
scribing the details Of this bloody
crime. There is an underlying tone
Of sympathy for the lynchers and
amusement at the groans and
writings of a dying man.
We regard this item as a public
announcement that you have tasted
of human blood and found it pleas
ing and will support lynching in
Indianapolis
We demand that this protest be
published in your paper on the same
page you published the details of
the lynching as an open apology
for your attitude.

in Fight for Liberation
of Angelo HerndOn

The executive board of the indie
pendent Smoking Pipe Makers
Union of America, $40 Broadway,
has voted to endorse the call Of the
International Labor Defense, to
which the union is affiliated, for
the strongest fight for the liberia
ton of Angelo Herndon and the
Scottsboro boys, it was made known
by r. Page, organizer for the union.
The executive board, in a discus
sion, affirmed that the duty of every
trade union member is to fight for
the right of Negro and white work
ers to organize and for the sop
ping Of terroristic measures against
the oppressed Negro workers of the
South. To permit the workers of
the South to be robbed Of their
rights and terrori5ed is to invite
the same thing to happen to the
workers here in the North, the
union declared.
The executive board pledges itself
to lead the Independent Smoking
Pipe Makers Union of America in
a victorious struggle to defend the
rights of the workers wherever they
may be attacked, Page said.

ers Industrial Union, in an attempt
to prohibit picketing in the Pearl
White laundry. AS the strike ends

a. F. Of L., began openly to sign up

Mr.. Levine, organizer of Local $50,
promised a committee of strikers
that the herding of strikebreakers
would be discontinued by himself
and his associates.
The union is arranging mass
picket line in front of the Fordham
laundry for Monday to keep the
shop from opening with strike

Might Control Finances
BY gaining control of these
State agencies, it Is pointed out,
local political powers not only
would gain strength in forcing
the appointment of worthy party
men" to the jobs, but also would
be able to exert considerable
power over the checks which the
Administration is distributing to
"plow-under" farmers.
Those who are in command Of
the Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration have fought hard so
far to avoid giving their work
q political complexion. About the
only charge that they have failed
centers around the coincidence"
of the Administrators getting
out a heavy volume Of checks at
just the time when they would
be most effective in the coming
election.
Officials insist that there has
been no political motive behind
the big check drive and cite
circumstances which they assert
made the distribution necessary
at this particular time.
Fight Decentralization
But these same officials fore
see disaster if the movement to
decentralize the organization is

be quoted, they maintain that
