A ess ;;ei- tre:n which had been
sent to Florida Keys evacuated
the war veterans working on high
way projects and was overturned
by waves. Everyone was saved,
according to a wireless message.

IN THE MATTER OF THE FAN
TASTIC BEER r

In one Of the recent board
meetings it was suggested that
t h Legal Redress committee
draft resolutions to be sent to the
municipal judges, which resolu-
lions would in effect state to the
municipal judges that they were
to lenient in their decisions Of
cases involving arguments, dis
putes, fights and conduct by and
between colored people in the
neighborhod in and around the
Fantactic Beer Garden. The com
mittee, after discussing this mat
ter, decided that it was not for
the best interests Of the organiza-
ton to carry out the instructions
which have been given, without
further discussion ON the same;
and the concensus of the commit
tees opinion was that the matter
again be referred to the executive
board for discussion.

ABOVE COMMITTEE BEGS TO
SUBMIT THAT
IN THE MATTER OF GEORGE
CRUMBLEY:

Matter was investigated by the
n. A. A. c. P. on February 81,
1885. Mr.. George Crumbley came
to DR.. Wesley Jones, the presi-
dent Of the National Association,
complaining of an attack made
upon him by one officer Bud Lev
In Of the Police Department. He
requested that DIR. Jones, as
president should take such steps
as were necessary to bring this
case to the attention Of the proper
authorities. In view Of the fact
that various committees of the
Association ha dnot been set up,
DR. Jones in capacity Of presi-
dent, handled the details Of this
case, and the Legal Redress com
mittee in itself played a very
small part.
DIR. Jones, after making a
thorough investigation of the
case, took the matter up with
Robert Samardick, Chief Of Pc
lice, and as a result of the inter
view with Mr.. Samardick, rela
tive to the matter, Mr.. Levin was
suspended indefinitely from the
police department. A few days
later, however, the suspension OF
Mr.. Levin was reduced to 10 days,
after which time he was returned
to the force.
Reviewing the facts in this case,
MI. Crumbley together with his
wife, was arrested on or about the
26th day of February and taken
TO the police station. After be-
ing booked, they were conducted
to the elevator and on the way up
Mr.. Crumbley and his wife were
engaged IN an argument. Officer
Levin semeds to resent some re-
mark that was passed and struck
Mr.. Crumbley, causing a very
severe injury. The Association
took the stand that a man under
arrest should not be beaten or
mistreated by members of the po-
lice department; that the attack
I'D this case was perpetrated up
o ma man whom the police officer
thought defenseless because of his
color. On that assumption, the
Association caused the suspension
of Mr.. Levin.

~ ILL -A4<A A14R
YOUNG, alias Gabe McElroy:
Complaint was made to the
chairman of the Legal Redress
committee by one Mr.. Mitchell
and by Mr.. r. @. Price, that one
Daniel Young was being held in
the city jail without a charge
against him, against his will and
in violation Of his constitutional
rights. This is the case in which
Daniel Young was supposed to be
heir to oil land in Teas amounting
to somewhat Of a fortune. The
chairman of the Lega Redress
committee, John Adams, IN com
Dany with Mr.. r.. c. Price and Mr..
Bernard Squires, executive secre-
tary of the Urban League, made
investigation of the complaint.
The investigation consisted of go
ing to see Mr. Young, the attor-
ney who was representing Daniel
Young. offices in the Omaha Ma
tional Bank building. Nh. Young
the attorney, was informed of the
nature Of the complaint made to
the Legal Redress committee. He
stated that there was nothing to
such a complaint, and that it was
untrue that Daniel Young was not
in jail against his will, that he
was III jail at his own request be-
cause he felt that he was in dang
er of his life, and feared great
bodily harm and injury. In the
company 0 fattorney Young, the
chairman of the Legacy Redress
committee, Mr.. Price and Nh.
Squires went to the city jail and
talked with Daniel Young. From
the conversation with Daniel
Young and questions submitted to
him by the committee, it was de-
termined that Mr.. Young was in
Jail voluntarily and at his own re-
quest and could leave as he de-
sired. The chairman Of the Legal
Redress committee decided that
nothing further could be done in
this case.
