Bioff, Going 10 Jail
On Old Morals Case,
Plans New Fight
Movie Labor Leader
Surrenders for Offense
Committed l8 Years Ago
BY the Associated Press.

oy Tie ASSOCldteQ 1TeSS.
CHICAGO, April IS. William
Bioff, movie labor leader, surren-
dered at the House of Correction to-
day on an order sending him to Jail
for an offense committed l8 years
ago.
He was accompanied by his lawyer,
State Senator Abe Marovitz, who
has managed to keep him at liberty
since last February, when he re-
turned voluntarily from Hollywood
to fight the old conviction on a
pandering charge.
Immediately upon his commit
ment I will take new steps to free
him." Mr. Marovitz announced. He
did not disclose the procedure he
would follow.
Blof, chairman of the Conference
of Studio Unions on the West Coast,
was denied writ of habeas corpus
in Criminal Court March IS, but
was permitted to retain his freedom
under a $4,000 bond while his lawyer
appealed to the Illinois Supreme
Court.
Mr.. Marovitz asked the high court
to review the original case in which
Bioff was convicted here in 1922 and
sentenced to serve six months in the
BrideWell.
The review cannot be heard until
the June term, and the Supreme
Court has refused to allow Biof to
remain at liberty under bond until
that time
Bioff served eight days of his SEN
tence in 1922. Then he was released
pending an appeal to the Illinois
appellate court. The conviction was
upheld there, but no steps were taken
to send the labor leader to Jail until
last November. when a newspaper
story brought the case to light.

on the part of many as to whether
or not there would be another
issue of the publication. On the
first Of September those many
were surprised to see hanging on
neWsstands from coast to coast to

called Negro World Digest" And
perhaps to many more, by the

day, when the leaders will be CIV
en- the right Of way.
Pastor Wards discussion Of the
topic rs the Church Doomed"
brought out many interested visi-
tors and students, and created
much comment. He stated that
the distinctly Negro church would
remain as long as Negroes were
conscious Of their need Of racial
self expression, and as long as
non-Negro Christians failed to &C
cept Negroes full one hundred per
cent in the Christian family and
faith in every way. Inimical
forces, both within and without
the Negro church would not be
sufficient to discredit or destroy
the church as long as it held to
the life, faith, and teachings Of
Jesus Christ in serving humanity.
When all racial and denominations
al lines shall have been obliter-
ated in Christianity, then shall
the Negro church, as such, become
one in the universal Church Of
Christ. Until then, let Negroes
continue to recognize, accredit,
and support it as the finest ave
nue. of expression known to them
in this present world. The sepa-
ratist movement in the Methodist,
