Vice trials are reaching out to oui
side of the fence, if news reports ar,
true
Bertha Agnes Craig, main in the re
sort which plays an important part il
the Grunewald case, testified that sh,
had served liquor, and was immediate
ly charged with violation of the liquor
laws.
She also testified that two other girl.
named Vivi, and Dorothy worked
there.
The point in this story is this, thos,
women who were employed in these
resorts probably did not know thai
they were being employed to break the
law.
Before the smoke clears away, they
will probably all be between the devil
and the deep blue sea.
They will either be forced to make
it hard" for their bosses, or make it
hard for themselves.
Giving us moral, that it is easier
to stay out of trouble than it is to get
out.
Youngsters who believe the hacken-
eyed expression, that colored folks
never get break, may look at Tommy
Donaldson, and his ups and downs as
one of the many cases one sees as
news passes over the table.
Tommy had good chance we think.
He had fair job and a great deal of
respect, but he wanted to be one of the
boys" before he grew into the cor
rect size.
He listened to those people who
want someone to take their chesnuts
out of the fire, and as a result, both
job and reputation are in the limbo.
We must be in a mood to moralize
today, for we believe that youngsters
should be told by everyone with whom
they have contact, that the old trans
gressor, always is looking for a new
sacrifice. So it is best to steer clear of
the fellow who lives on the ragged
edge of the law.
