lions denouncing the rape of Ethi-
opia and supporting the Spanish
people in their great struggle for

Sounding the keynote of the

harial Nehru, president of the con-
gress, called for a vigorous fight

Declaring a finish fight on Bril-

serted that the ultimate solution
of midas problem is Socialism:
Modern Imperialism is an out
growth of capitalism and cannot
be separated from it. The Con-

the logic of events will lead it to

Decision Made
In Oregon May
Help HerndOn

WASHINGTON In a decision
that many believe will affect the
Herndon case, the U. S. Supreme
Court last week set aside the con-
viction and seven-year jail SEN
tence imposed on Dirk DeJonge,
white Portland, Oregon Commun-
list, following the. longshoremen's
strike of 1884 on charges of viola
ting the Oregon Criminal Syndical-
ism law. The decision sends the
case back to the state courts which
may free De Jonge or order a new
trial
The ruling marks the first time
in its long history that the high
court has upheld fundamental lib
critics of speech, press or assembly
or thoseh Gliding views at variance
with the philosophy of the top lay
e1S OF American society, and is at
tributed by labor leaders and lib
erals to the sweeping condemna-
ton of reaction given BY the Am
erican people in the recent cleo
TONS
In New York, Anna Damon, act
ing national secretary of the In
ternational Labor Defense, which
defended De Jonge, termed the de-
cision as "a significant victory in
the fight for free speech against"
laws of political repression" She
thought the courts. action might
possibly affect the outcome of the
appeal of Angelo Herndon against
a 20-year sentence on the Georgia
chain gang, but warned that the
Herndon case will present the high
court with even more fundamental
issues, involving the democratic
rights, not only of labor, but of the
entire Negro people.
The court viii hear argument on
the Herndon appeal next month.
1erndon was convicted on an old
slave statute for organizing a re-
lief demonstration of Atlanta

LONDON, England The Amer
lean Negro is the most loyal, self
conscious and expressive member
Of the racial group. He is never
wanting in his response to racial
appeals that stir him to the pos
sibiIity Of real service, religious
~, politically, or otherwise. He
mas never failed those who appeal
to him. Most Of the time, howev-
er, he allows his enthusiasm for
racial causes to get the better of
his judgement, and then, when
the truth Is brought home to him,
he becomes disappointed ard dis
gylsted. Efforts should be made
not to spoil his good disposition
and character in this respect, for
he it is who is leading the world
of other Negroes in their true
responsibility to the Race in the
hope of solving a problem that
calls for the most serious apph-
cation.
The Italo-Abyssinian war had
an immediate appeal to the Amer
lean Negro, like Negroes in all
other parts of the world, and his
response was immediate and most
enthusiastic.
Unfortunately, when ETHIOPIA en-
tered 'spon the war. and before,
there was no organized intelligence
about its true position among Ne
groes anywhere. It was difficult,
therefore, for Abyssinia to get the
right kind of support that was
absolutely necessary at the very
start of things. The lack of in
formation among Negroes of the
world about Abyssinia was due
to the fault Of the Abyssinian
Government which up to that
