The ODELL WALLER CASE

One dollar and fifty cents may not
sound like much money, But that's the
Virginia poll tax, and to thousands of
poor people, white and colored, it
represents the difference between politi-
cal slavery and the right to vote and
to do jury duty.
10 a 23-year old colored sharecrop-
per named Odell Waller, the poll tax
may represent the difference between
lte and death. Waller is scheduled to
dle IN Chatham, Va, next December
n for the alleged murder of his land
lord, Oscar Davis. The all-white Jury
winch convicted him was picked from
jury list from which the majority of
county residents were excluded because,
oelng sharecroppers, they couldn't pay
the poll tax. Thus the jury, supposed
10 be "the equals" of the accused, con-
sisted OF a businessman, a carpenter
and ten landlords.

tne labor movement, with the coopera-
Iion OF the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, is

raised by November 26 for appeals in
Virginia courts.
Prejudice and mob spirit made fair
verdict impossible. The killing
occurred in dispute over crop shares
When Waller went to get his share of
the crop, he carried along a gun, be-
cause he had been threatened repeat
edly, and Virginia law allows a man to
arm himself if he believes his life is
threatened. Davis is alleged to have
replied to Waller's requests with a
rough "You won't get a damn bit of
it,, and reached for his gun pocket. In
self-defense, Waller shot.
Armed planters went after Waller,
and the defendant, who was preparing
to surrender, fled to Ohio, from which
he was extradited in August. But the
lynch spirit still ran through the com
munity and the courtroom. The
county sheriff admitted that extra pre-
cautions had been taken to avoid a
lynching Nevertheless, Judge Turner
Clement refused a defense motion to
move the trial to anther city.
Walters case is labor's case. His
death would be not merely a victory
for planter lynch law, but also vindl-
cation of the poll tax which has long
