Catholics Say
No Compromise
On ScottsbOrO

NEW YORK Calvin Service)
America, national Catholic pap
er published weekly. in a leading
editorial entitled AT Scottsboro, .
says: Justice moves with leaden
feet in the case Of the nine Ne
groes indicted at Scottsboro. BY
legal presumption innocent, these
men have been in prison since
March %, 1881. Twice the SUI
pre1ne Court Of the United States
saved them from death, once by
declaring that they had been de-
prived of their constitutional right
to be represented by counsel, and
again when it was shown that Me-
groes had been Systematically e2-
cluded from jury service in Ala
bama. One of these men, SEN
fenced last year to a prison term
of seventy-five years, has appeal
ed to the Supreme Court of Ala
bama. For the others, a special
session Of the criminal court has
been orc 'ed for July 8.
eOnce more, then this miserable
round of justice denied because of
racial prejudice is set in motion.
Our interest in this case is not
prompted by the circumstance that
all the defendants are ignorant
and penniless Negroes. It springs
from the fact that they are hui
man beings, made like ourselves
to the image and likeness of God;
that they are fellow-citizens who
may claim every right guaranteed
by the Constitution to the humbl-
est among us as well as to the
President CT the United States
THE report that compromise
had been reached by the State
authorities and counsel for these
men seems incorrect. According
to press reports, the defendants
We're to be permitted to plead
guilty to a lesser offense, and to
be sentenced to comparatively
brief terms in prison
There can be no place for such
compromise in a well-ordered
State. If these men are guilty,
they should be hanged; if not, they
should be freed. No fair-minded
man can examine the testimony in
this case, testimony later repudia-
ted by the chief witness, and find
that it has any weight as evidence.
Yet another trial will almost GER
tainly result in conviction, not
because of any evidence, but be-
cause racial prejudice gives to
worthless testimony the authority
of evidence. The unhappy fact
seems to be that in some parts Of
this country no Negro can be judi
cially tried The only compromise,
then, which justice cav counten-
ance is abandonment of this pro-
secution by the State"

Sharp Go Discussion
Marks. NAACP Confab

DETROIT, Mich. The issue
of the Negro worker and his re-
lation to the Committee for In
dustrial Organization overshadow-
ed every other topic at the 2sth
annual conference of the NAACp
here this week. z
Antagonist to the CLIO was ex-
pressed before the conference OPP
ened by several ministers in their
churches July %. At least one
minister advised his congregation
to boycott the meetings of the
conference because Homer Martin,
JAW head, had been invited to
speak. There was some feeling
also because John P. Davis was
listed to speak to a discussion
group Wednesday morning, June
80, on the work Of the Gro among
Negro laborers.
Sharp discussion marked the
meeting June 80 following Mr.. Da-
vis's talk urging union of Negroes
with all movements seeking pro-
gressive action to solve economic
difficulties of the underprivileged
groups. A few Detroit delegates
spoke defending the policy of the
Ford Motor Company because it
employs 1000 Negroes. But de-
legates from Norfolk, Va, Rich
mond, Va, and Chester, Pa, told
of the lily-white policy of the For
company in their cities and of the
benefits which had come to Negro
workers from the CIO organiza-
ton.

speech Friday in which he admit
ted his services ended on July 1.
President Florence said he had
disagreed with The board Of cura-
tors on points of selecting staff

position of the board itself, and on
the objectives Of the institution.
He pointed out that the physical
plant of the school had grown dur
ing his term Of office, and that
more money had been appropriat-
ed for operating expenses. The
retiring president said Lincoln
needs a non-partissn board which
cannot be ousted by each new
governor. He said that the white
schools of Missouri have such
boards.
