Rape Charge

Birmingham, Ala-IIe didn't COM
nit the crime he was charged with.
The jury found him not guilty.
That's not news, but it is news
when the defendant is Negro, when
the crime of which he is accused is
"assaulting a white woman" and
when the jury is in southern state
with an unsavory reputation because
of the Scottsboro case and countless
others.
Charlie Render, the 21-year-old Ne
gro youth, was declared not guilty by
a jury which deliberated but 40 min
utes. The defense was able to prove
that Render was working on his
WPA Job at the time the woman was
attacked. Newspapermen, racking
their brains, decided that "for the
first time in the known history of
Birmingham, a young Negro was az
quilted on the charge of assault after
having been identified by a white
woman complainant"

out provocation. Although Harlan's
story, while painting the girl as a
prostitute fails to account for the
shooting-for why should prostitute
shoot an admittedly willing prospec-
tive customer ?-the authorities are
reluctant to officially admit that a
white man assaulted a Negro woman,
although everyone knows that such
cases are numerous.
In order to make certain of the
girls conviction, Sheriff Savage is
now accusing her of being implicated

he was shot, was untouched.
