The Georgia Supreme Court
last Friday heard Whitney
North Seymour, a defense at
torney retained by the Inter

1866 instruction law under
which Herndon was sentenced
to Is to 20 years on the Georgia

ed the law was so vague "a
jury of the wisest men could
not determine its intent and
asserted Herndon was s%entenc-
ed solely because of his activ-
ity on behalf of the unemployed
in Atlanta.
The recent decision of Judge
Hugh M. Dorsey in Atlanta
holding the law unconstitution-
al has been appealed to the

NEGRO MUST
U S CONSTITUTION
ENTERS PRESIDENTIAL RACE

Washington, D. c., Feb. 5
Senator William E. Borah re-
iterated his objection to the
Costigan- Wagner anti-Lynch-
ing bill as being unconstitution-
al but offered to put his
shoulders to the Wheel for any
measure which could pass his
sensitiveness on the Constitution
in an exclusive interview with
the Bureau on Negro Affairs,
here, this week.
Pointing out that his reply to
Walter White, secretary of the
NAACP had been interpreted
in error if it led Negroes to be-
lieve that he is lin favor of
Iynching as an American In
stitution", Senator Borah re-
ferred, with obvious pride, to an
instance in his own Idaho when.
a Negro was being threatened
with lynching:
"The Jail had been surround
ed, the rugged Idahoan said,
"and the boy would undoubted-
ly have been lynched if l had
not gone to the place with one
other person and spirited him
away. | later employed a law
yer and saved him from being
sent to jail
When asked how he felt
about tho storm Of protests
which has come down on his
head because Of his stand, the
senator held that while he
would like to have every vote
he could get if he carries the
Republican ribbons, he would
not for a moment go back on
what he thinks is an honorable
tradition of "never voting for
a bill which | think unconsti-
tutional.'

CAB GALLOWAY
STILL ON THE AIR
Correction Of The Report That
Was Circulated In Error
Special to The Omaha Guide from
Richard Mack

An item which seems to be going
the rounds from one colored news
paper to another, and has no APP
parent basis on fact, is the So
called report that Cab Galloway
and his Cotton Club Orchestra has
been barred from the ether waves.
Where the rumor started, nobody
knows, and who was supposed to
lend it authenticity is also a mys-
terry. The fact is that to date not
one white newspaper has given
the item either credence or an inch
of space.
Please note that two weeks fol-
lowing the first announcement
that Cab Galloway and his Cotton
Club Orchestra had been barred
from he air they appeared as
guest artists on the Al Jolson coast
to coast broadcast Saturday, Jan.
25th, $3.50 to 1890 E. S. IT, Radio
circles are still commenting that
appearance, and Jolson, himself,
introduced the orchestra by say
ing it was one of he greatest in
America today.
1 am sending out this informa-
ton to you and l hope that you
will take it in the spirit in which
it is offered. / think it only fair
that you give at least as much
space to the enclosed authentic
report of Cabs very successful
broadcast as was devoted to the
article in question. l should adj
ditionally be very happy to learn
from you where the original in
formation emanated and who lent
his name as authority to that in
formationy
l know that in the interest of
good journalism and reporting and
additionally in the true interest in
members of your own race, you
will cooperate with me in the mat
ter.
