Apparently weary of being chas-

tempting to kidnap a white baby.
Currently Admission is the worst

to the electric chair for allegedly
attacking white women. The

five times to quell disorders.

Otto Jefferies, "a, of 4767 st.
Antoine, former light weight cham
pion of Indiana, was issued license
as a boxing referee this week, by
the Athletic Board of Control, OF
Michigan, of which G. Terry Reilly
is secretary.
Jefferies, who for the past ten
years, has been employed as
street car motorman in the City OF
Detroit, is the first member of the
race to receive a referee license in
Michigan, and according to Secre-
tary Reilly, he is the second Negro
in the United States to hold such
license, the first having been
Joe Janet, of New Jersey. Janet,
however, is not at present licens-
ed referee.
The license was presented to
Jeffries by Governor Frank Fitz-
gerald, in the presence of Secre-
tary Reilly and Ex-senator Charles
Roxborough.

YOUTH OUT FOR
MAJEWSKI
By Leroy G. White

Several leading Hamtramck
youths pledged themselves to sup
part the candidacy of former May
or SePhen A. Majewski for office of
Congress, in the first Congressman
District. The youths stand was
taken with two provisions that OF
if Majewski who is the Democra-
tic candidate is nominated and if
his oppponet on the Republican
ticket is either former State Sena-
tor Charles A. Roxborough or At
torney Charles H. Mahoney that
their support would be with drawn
as they would feel duty bound to
support the race candidate for the
office. -. ..."
However the position of h
youth in working for Majewski was
explained by one of the leaders
as follows: I'VE feel that the pre-
sent incumbent Cogressman Geor-
ge Sadowski has proven by his
past record that he is not at all
times interested in the interest OF
all the citizens of the district. This
was proven when last year he took
pictures of colored people regis
tering in Detroit and distributed
them in order to stir up racial
hatred among the other cnrzens of
the district. 1t is our belief that
Former Mayor Majewski has been
fair to the group during his re-
gime as Mayor of Hamtramck.
Since the person nominated on the
Democratic ticket in the primary
is usually the victor in November
we must work to see that the nonI-
mated candidate is liberal even
though we may not support him
after the primary" :.

spree had ended and the Negroes
be rushed to Admission, this white
had taken to the tall neigboring
timber or quaked in the cellars of
their shacks.
1t seemed last week that the
worm had turned. A few Negroes
fit to be called men got tired of
playing rabbit and shot up three
members of a mob. The tragedy is
that not enough took similar &C
ton to IMPRESS belligerent whites
that they were tired of persecution.
Several dozen determined brown
men with loaded guns and the will
to use them could break up prac-
tically any mob which undertakes
Negro-fries, for the danger of per-
sonal bodily injury would deter
most of the would-be lynchers.

sions he said were wrung out Of
him by torture, faced death brave
ly. He knelt at the base of the 10
steps in the midst of a bloodthirsty
crowd which had been waiting all
night and mumbled a brief prayer.
The restless mob demanded that he
be strung up without being per-
mitted any religious consolation.
Contrary to belief, public hang
ing is not imperative. When Ken
lucky adopted the electric chair
for punishment of capital offenses,
the legislature retained the moose
as the penalty for criminal as
sault, but made 1t optional with
county officials as to whether the
hanging should be public or pri-
vate. Officials here decided upon
a public hanging without announc-
ing their reasons.
