primary cases, all handled by the
N. A. A. C. P, but now the right
to register has been established.
N. A. A. C. P. Victories
Twelve out of thirteen cases
carried to the U. S. Supreme Court
by the N. A. A. @. P. have been
won. This record extends over a
period of almost twenty-five years,
from 1915 to date.
In 1896 the U. S. Supreme Court
ruled that the conviction of Jess
Hollins from Oklahoma by a jury
of whites from which all Negroes
were excluded was invalid and a
denial of due process of law.
The conviction of three Negroes
in Mississippi on a confession ex-
torted by force and violence was
held to be denial of due process
of law in 1886. The supreme court
held: "The rack and torture cham
Der may not be substituted for the
witness stand" ..
The conviction of Joe Hale of
Kentucky on an indictment drawn
by an all white jury and by a trial
of an all white jury from which
Negroes were excluded was de-
clared unconstitutional in 1888.
The University of Missouri de-
cision, December IL, 1888, estab-
ished the principle that a qualified
Negro could not be excluded from
the state university on the grounds
of his color in the absence of the
establishment of equal opportu-
mites for him within the state.
This decision established the prin-
ciple applicable to all public educa-
ton that "the admissibility of laws
separating the races in the enjoy
ment of privileges afforded by the
state rests wholly upon the equal
ity of the privileges which the law
gives to the separated groups
within the State"
The twelfth victory was the case
decided Monday, May %, 1889, de-
claring unconstitutional a statute
of Oklahoma which Disseminated
against Negroes in their right to
register and vote. .

Indicts Man
About Girls

Baltimore = Considering three
special cases involving morals
charges, the grand jury on Monday
indicted Thorn Brown, 74-year-old
white Pennsylvania Avenue shoe
maker.
Brown, who for many years OPP
Grated his business at 1914
Pennsylvania Avenue, was accused
of Turing small school girls into his
shop and abusing them. It was
alleged that in some instances
force was used, and further, that
perverted practices were resorted
to. ,s...E
Stone Wall Met
The lodging of the charges and
subsequent indictment capped an
extensive investigation conducted
by Mrs. Violet Hill Whyte and a
strenuous fight to have him in
dicted.
Although the charges were
known when Brown was arrested
on the first charge, more than
three weeks before, Mrs. Whyte
met with some difficulty in having
additional ones lodged, it was
learned.
