Senator Norris
Praises
Justice Black

New York-Senator George Nor
ris, famed Nebraska liberal, and
the Nation magazine have both
lauded the recent supreme court
decision handed down February II,
and written by Justice Hugo L.
Black, of Alabama, in which the
supreme court of Florida was deni-
ed the right to affirm the execu-
ton of four Negro youths whose
conviction of numbering a white
man had been upheld on the basis
of confessions obtained by a week
of torture.
Said Senator Norris February
20, in a letter to the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of
Colored People, whose attorneys
carried the case to the high court.
81 think that that opinion is go
going to go a long way towards
placing not only the courts but
the administrative officials of the
entire United States on a much
higher plane than ever before. |
am not thinking particularly of
the colored race, because, as | see
it this applies to the white race
as we'll"
In a long and laudatory editor
ial appearing in its issue of Feb.
"a the National Magazine conclud-
ed:
"We take out the stock of words
required for comment, and find
them all dirtied by Hypocrisy and
encrusted with cant. The Majesty
of the law, Equqal Justice; 'dea
mocratic processes; American
Ideals We put the words away. All
we can say is that the supreme
court saved the lives of four Ne
groes. And saved something pre-
cious for the rest of us, too"

Washington, March % (ANP)-
Declaring himself unreservedly in
favor of a third for President
Roosevelt, Congressman Arthur w.
Mitchell of Illinois in an address
before the house Monday recited
a resume of the accomplishments
of the New Deal as far as Ne
groes are concerned and challenged
any other party to show that it
had done as much.
Going down the line, Mr.. Mitchell
enumerated the seven alphabetical
agencies which had contributed to
the Negroes welfare and saved
them not only from starving, but
kept them living" They were in
order, the WPA, PWA, CCC, FCA,
FSA, NYA, and the USHA.
Stating that some 100000 Negro
families, representing Ia per cent
of the total on the WPA p~ayrolls.
had been benefited from the acts
of this organization, Congressman
Mitchell further lauded the New
Deal and cited figures from other
departments to prove his conten-
tons.
He was interrupted in his speech
by a fellow representative who,
listening to Mitchell's praise of
the Farm Credit administration,
wanted to know if Mr.. Mitchell
would be willing to have this unit
put in the department of agricul-
ture under the direction of Secre-
tary Wallace.
Mr.. Mitchell refused to answer
this pointed question and refused
to yield for further questioning.
However, at the end of his allotted
time, Hamilton Fish of New York
who had asked the Speaker of the
house for five minutes launched
into Mr.. Mitchell and demanded to
know just how many Unemployed
Negroes there were in spite of the
New Deal. Mr.. Fish also asked. if
Mr.. Mitchell knew of the suffer-
ings of the Negroes in the South
under the New Deal administra-
ton.
Turning to another point in his
attack, Mr.. Fish declared that
while Mr.. Mitchell was lauding
President Roosevelt, Mrs. Roose-
welt and the cabinet, why was it
that Mr.. Roosevelt refused to com-
nit himself on the anti-lynch bill,
although he was greatly interested
in the welfare of other races and
creed three thousand miles away?
Zone word from the White
House." said Mr.. Fish, "and the
anti-lynch bill would pass through
the senate without any difficulty
at ALL"
