Chain Gang Truck
Arrives In Omaha
August "a and %

The replica of a chain-gang
cage, built by the |. L. D., and
now touring the country in the
campaign to free Angelo Hern-
don, the % year-old Negro youth
sentenced by the Georgia officials
to serve a term Of 1920 years on
the Georgia chain-gang for organ
izing white and Negro workers III
a demonstration before the relief
office asking for bread, is sche-
duled to arrive In Omaha, on Sat
urday, August oath The truck Is
equipped with spikes, chains,
whips and other weapons which
are used against prisoners, as well
as striped convict suits. "A meet
ing viii be held on Saturday
night, on Grant Street, Just off
oath. Donald Burke, representa-
tive of the international Labor
Defense, and other local speakers
viii address the open-air meeting
from a platform of the truck. On
Sunday night a similar open-air
meeting Will be held In South
Omaha On the corner Of 3Oth and
R streets. Both meetings Will be-
gin at s p. n.
The instruction law under
which Angelo Herndon was SEN
fenced OF serve eighteen to TWEEN
ty years on the chain-gang, is in
direct line Of descent from the
cruel slave laws Of the earliest
colonial days. a law ailnd at save
insurrectiOns-which was itself
the final form Of a whole series
Of barbarous laws-was passed in
1861. The present insurrection
law was passed in 1866. Between
these two dates there was fought
out one Of the most important
wars In all history, a war at
whose root lay the issue Of slave
ry IL freedom for the Negro peo-
pie. Before the war the Negroes
were chattel slaves; after the
war they were, for the most part,
poems on the land or wage-slaves
IN the cities. The new law of 1866
was designed to crush uprisings
among the new Slaves, to gov
ern the relations between slave
and master.
Georgia wants Angelo Herndon
because he dared to organize IN
employed workers in Atlanta to
demand better relief. Nothing
would please Georgia's sadistic
officials better than to put a steel
collar around his neck and chains
around his legs with 20 inch
spikes, and to beat him unmerci-
fully every time he protests
against their savagery. Certain
lingering death awaits one who
is forced to spend Is to 20 years
on the chain-gang. Sanitary CON
ditions are unbearable. Sick and
healthy are thrown together into
cages like beasts. No provisions
for bathing exist. Stocks. whip
ping, stretching and other forms
Of corporal punishment are not
only used but provided for by
law.
HerndOn has been saved to the
present moment by the organized
might of hundreds of thousands
led by the International Labor
Defense who were able to raise
$4,000 within a few weeks which
released Herndon from the At
lanta penetentiary.
ANGELO HERNDON must he
freed The campaign for two mil
lion signatures demanding his
freedom and the abolition Of the
slave law must receive the widest
support here in Omaha. Every
signature is a vote against the
brutal chain-gang system.

Lese Majesty

American hum0r mas wounded
the sensibilities Of the Japanese
nation A magazine has carica-
tured the japanese Emperor in
the guise Of a laborer drawing a
jinirikisha containing the Nobel
Peace Prize. The japanese
missed the joke. The Emperor
receiving the peace prize and not
his conveying it was supposed to
make Gods and nations laugh.
All labor Is honorable even if per
formed by President, King or
Emperor. The American humor-
ist, with impunity, directs the
shaft Of his wit at anything in
the Heavens above, the earth be-
meath and the waters under the
earth. TO him nothing is rosanct
or inviolate. Our high dignata-
ries are c~aricatured in whatever
simiIitudo the humor oftheartist
may devise and the victims of his
shaft are supposed to smile while
they smart. Sanctity is fast be
coming a lost art. Things sacred
and divine alike become the OBJ
ject Of ridcule and side-cracking
laughter. But not so with sensi-
tive nations such as the Japanese
are now and as the Germans were
recently. 1t is easy to recall the
international episode caused by
an American Admiral's humor-
Gus rendition of "Hoch Der
Kaiser l'' The Germans regarded
their Emperor as the embodiment
of divinity in person. The Japan
csc esteem their Emperor as be-
ing a direct descendant of heaven.
Any ~disrespect manifested to-
wards his sacred person is re
garded as blasphomy against
the Diety They hold their dig
nataries and traditions with the
same reverential regard as the
Jews hold Jehovah set forth in
the admonition: "Thou b
not take the name of the Lord
thy God in vain, for the Lord will
not hold him guiltless that tax
eth his name in vain" To the
present day Christian has degener-
ated into mere glib recital, Who'll
ly void Of the sactity and rever-
ence which it originally enjoined.
1t is difficult for n race, one
nation or n religion to under
stand and enter into the delicate
sensibilities of another. There
is a deep undercurrent Of mean
ing in Kipling,s lines:
For East is East and West is
West and never the twain shall
meet
Till earth and sky stand pres
emily at Gods great judgement
seat
What makes the American
laugh makes the Japanese
grieve.
Freedom Of speech and Of the
press is { h e constitutional right
of every American citizen. The
Government itself, therefore, has
no recourse against an American
citizen who exercises this right
to the discOmforture of a foreign
Potentate beyond our Constitu-
ional or national horizon. It is
only a gesture Of international
courtesy and chivalry which
causes the Department Of State
to heed the complaint of Japan
for an unattended offense for
which the Government cannot
ordinarily take cognizance. Lese
Majesty is not in accord with
the American spirit where every
man is a king.
The swift response of the De-
partment to Japan's complaint
suggests the respect and defer
ence which power always com
mands. The apologize apology
which this nation extended to its
!, wounded rival was not wholly
without connection win her rank
in0 the family of nations. "Hiol
Hitler" offends the loyal Nazi OF

3 NEW AIRPORT
SITES LOOM

Three more sites as possible 10,
cations for Washington's new air
port will be inspected tomorrow
by a House District subcommittee
charged with reporting to Con-
gress recommendations for the air
base.
The sites to be viewed include
those at Suitland, Oxon Hill and
Forestville. Md. The committee
has already inspected land in the
Benning Road area, Gravelly
Point and washington Airport.
The committee was scheduled
to have made a report of its rec
concentrations at the regular
meeting of the House District
Committee yesterday, but was un-
able to do so because of pressing
national legislation.
Extensive hearings have been
held this year on the longtime
dispute. Almost every civic and
trade body in Washington has
gone on record as favoring the
Gravelly Point site as the best
location for the new airport, but
the committee believes it's atten-
ton should be given to other loca
tions before making a final de-
CiSiOn.

ALE EXANDR|A'S s
LIQUOR RULE
INVALID

ALEXANDRIA, March 14.-The
new beer and wine ordinance
passed by city council recently
prescribing the closing time for
selling beverages containing more
than one-half of l per cent OF
alcohol by volume after midnight
during the week and prohibiting
its sale on Sunday except between
the hours of IL noon and 9 o'clock
p. m. was declared invalid by
Judge James Reese Duncan in
Police court this morning and the
cases of violations against the
ordinance dismissed.
The defendants = we're repre-
sented by Attorney Clyde Lam
ham, who contended the city
council was without jurisdiction
to enact such an ordinance.
However, City Attorney Carl
Buswesky today said that he
would appeal the decision on the
grounds that the legislature did
not intend to interfere with rules
made by any city to safeguard
the citizens.
He added that regulations made
for one section of Virginia would
not apply to all. He said the
legislature in its charter gave
the city council authority to
enact reasonable restrictions and
regulations.
The city council at its meeting
Tuesday night refused to revoke
the ordinance.
