Identical copies were sent to the
Resolutions committees of both
major parties, to be included in the
party platforms at the forthcoming
national conventions. The attorn-
eys, many of them nationally
known, condemned mob violence,
and in strong language demanded
enactment of a federal anti-lynch-
ing bill.
1t has been the aim of Negro POI
litical leaders, economists, and So
biologists for the past half century
to have both major parties, in ma
tional convention assembled, take
some definite stand on the question
of Negro rights and guarantees
under the Federal constitution, and
grant them economic security, and
protection of life and limb and
equality before the law as Ameri-
can citizens.
Test of Resolutions
The Negro lawyers of the coun-
try have therefore risen to the oc-
casion and as unit have declared
that the civil rights ofthis coun-
try's 100000 Negroes must not
be abrogated and that they are an
integral part of the body polite Of
the nation. Attorney Jesse S. Hes
lip, chairman of the Committee on
Resolutions of the National Bar
Association, forwarded the recon-
mendations of that body to both
the Republic and Democratic Ma
tional committees. The resolutions
Were as follows:

Reports Indicate That

military censorship from widely Sc
parated points Of the country indi-
cate that despite the. collapse Of
the Ethiopian armies and the oc-
cupation Of the capital city by the
Italians, the resistance of tie Eth
iopdan people to the Fascist war
Of enslavement is far from broken
but is flaming up In widespread
guerilla warfare by bands of de-
modified soldiers and armed civil
lians.
These bands, active in practical
ly every section Of the country oc-
cupied by the Italians, have raised
a new and sudden threat to the at
tempt of the Fascists to establish
their brutal rule over Ethiopia.
From the hills north and south of
this city, to which they withdrew
last week after setting fire to the
capital and Selling all available
stocks of arms, large bands of
guerilla fighters and armed civili-
ans are harassing the Fascist armv
of $4,000 men which entered the
capital on May 5. Italian machine
gun squads are now patrolling the
city and its outskirts in armored
cars in fear of sudden attacks
from the hills.
Only "a hours after the F'ascists
had set up their extensive patrol
ling system around the city, band
of guerilla fighters daringly pene-
trated their lines and ral1ed an It
allan encampment with machine
gun fire. The raiders also fired on
the French embassy and thus sue
cessfully withdrew to the hills.

New Books At The Library
POLI'S

Tonight is the last showing of '.Piccadilly Jim" starring Robert Montgomery and Madge Evans and also Jane Withers in Pepper" with Irwin s. Cobb and Slim Summerville on the same program.
 Tomorrow marks the opening of two new features. Gay film fare in the form of Walking On Air" starr ring Gene Raymond and Ann Soth- ern, the first feature on our pro- gram awaits the motion picture pa- tron. Gene Raymond and Ann Sothern co-star in this piquant corn- edy of a beautiful Beverly Hills heiress, with the temperament of a package of firecrackers, and two en- gazing young college graduates who decide to hire themselves out as companion n-adventurer and body guard respectively.
 There is an intriguing plot which evolves when the girl engages Ray mond to pose as an obnoxious French count after her hand, and to insult her father, who disapproves violently. At the same time the father hires Gene's friend as sec- ret bodyguard to prevent the elope- ment. Merry mix-ups follow, for neither of the two college pals knows what the others job is; and similarly neither father nor daugh- ter realizes what the other one is up to.
 Gene adds new laurels to his rep utation as light comedian and a singer. In this picture there are three song hits introduced namely, Cabin On The Hilltop, My Heart Wants To Dance, and Lets Make A Wish. Jessie Ralph and Henry Stephenson head the supporting cast.
 An actionful, dramatic portrayal of mans fight to regain his form CT position of wealth and power, &C., complished through his love for Q girl whose life he is ultimately call. ed upon to save when she is accused of murder is the theme of 'The Final Hour" starring Ralph Bellamy and Marguerite Churchill.
 In addition to our regular screen attractions there will be the vaude- vile show featuring headline acts direct from the leading theaters of Broadway. Thursday there will be another Screeno Party.
