Angelo Herndon, militant rahor
leader ordered back to 4ho
Georgia chain gang BY the United
States Supreme Court this waak
after the body refused the motion f.
a ~rehearing of the trial. This means
that the young Negro must ratrr,i
to this living hell within 10 DAYS.
Herndon was arrested in GEORGIA

a group Of unemployed Negro and
white workers and marched ~ The

Herndon made a transcontinental

tense Committee asks those inter
ested to send their protest by letter
or card to Governor Eugene Tai

tons, Ethiopia and Italy, a be
taken as a basis Of judgment. then
Hale Selassie's countrymen will
more than offset much Of the adj
vantage Mussolini has in the way of
ammunition and equipment.
The contrast begins properly
with Signora Mussolini and Empress
Waizeri Of Ethiopia, wife Of Selas-
sic The mate of II Duce is neve
thought of when the Premier Of Italv
is mentioned. She has pursued her
husbands theory that woman's place
is IN the home and there she has re-
manned During the first seven years
OF Ii Duce's power he kept his
spouse and children at their modest
villa IN Forli. Neither she nor any
other Italian woman enjoy any
kind Of place in the political life Of
Italy.
On the other hand, Empress
Waizeri has been constantly photo
graphed, has issued innumerable
statements on the conflict. and Il
one Of her husbands most trusted
advisers. "A descendant Of Cleopatra
and the Queen of Sheba, she CON-
bines in her portIy person not only
the glamour but also the force and
brilliance Of her famous ancestors.
The Queen Of Queens" has backed
her husband staunchly in his de-
cisions to defy Mussolini. Recently
she addressed an appeal to the
women Of the world to pray fol
peace. She has been married to the
Negus % years during which time
they are said never to have had a
quarrel. He is her fourth husband
and she his only wife. They have six
children, incidentally.
The Empress has often stated her
desire to march with her husband
into battle. Processes Of the royal
family have aided in every way pos
sible the Ethiopian fighting men. All
this indicates that If it is true that
"the female of the species is more
deadly than the male" then the
Italians have attecpted more than
they realize, for the soldier Of this
kingdom is himself one of the
worlds fiercest fighting men.
In some of the tribes women fight
along with their men and deem it 0
disgrace not to march in battle
against the foe. Still others follow
their husbands from camp to camp

necessities Of life. Woizero Abelatl

barbarism, in order to justify fas-
cist aggression, it is timely to pub
ISL this document on fascist bar
barism.
Coming new to the abuses prac-
ticed BY the constituted author
tiles lin fascist Italy,, we shall
mention the national ~annesties
which had the effect Of releasing
some Of the fascists sentenced by
the ordinary courts for misdeeds
committed "for patriotic ends"
We shall mention, also, the ex-
ceptional laws, the decay Of par
liamentary mandates, the institu-
ting Of special courts, the abOli-
ton of the Statute Qtalian
constitutiOn), the Imprisonment
and the sentencing to solitary
confinement and to deportation
of thousands Of anti-fascists, the
systematic violation, on the part
Of fascism, Of the laws which it
has itself passed, the dissolution
Of all trade union, political, cul-
tural, posrt, artistic and religious
organizations which are not fas-
cist In character.
We shall mention also the levy
ing of forced contributions on
the workers for the purpose Of
maintaining the fascist trade un-
J ion heads and a network Of spies,
the INFLAMMATION Of the schools
and the limitation Of the right to
attend the high schools and uni
versities, the militarization of the
whole country, the suppression Of
the press and Of the right Of free
speech and opinion.
This slavery exists even inside
the fascist organizations, where
there is no freedom of speech
whatsoever. Measures are taken
against the fascists themselves if
they dare to exercise any Of their
rights.
It Is forbidden to send any aid
Of any kind to political prisoners,
even from family and friends the
money sent them is seized in a
thousand ways, Of which one, and
the most characteristic, is as fol-
lows: a policeman follows the
bearer Of the message, and at the
moment when the money is to be
turned over the policeman steps
IN and takes it, under the pretext
that illegal aid is being given.
thus, It is impossible to send any
assistance, even through the moth
