Youth Admits PUSHING
Two Boys 10 Death
Victims Found at Foot Of
175-Foot Cliff in Colorado

BY the Associated Press.
GOLDEN, Colo, April 14.-William
Eugene Wymer, 16, of Denver has
confessed that he showed two
younger boys off towering Castle
Rock to their. deaths after robbing
them of their shoes and wrist
watch, Sheriff Howard Vincent re-
ported.
One of the victims, Milo Flindt, II,
alive when first found by two other
boys climbing the rock, died without
medical attention because the boys
were afraid to report the incident,
fearing they would be accused, the
Sheriff said. His companion, Donald
Mattas, 8, evidently died instantly.
II planned to push them off, but I
didn't think of the consequences. I
felt sorry for the older one when he
screamed" was Wymer's unemotion-
al comment in an interview with
newspapermen after the sheriff S
statement.
Deputy District Attorney Martin
c. Molholm said he would file a
murder charge against Wymer. The
victims were found dead Sunday at
the foot of the 175-foot cliff by
searchers, investigating the belated
report of the boys who had learned
of the tragedy the day before.
Wymer and two companions, both
IA years old, were held in a Golden
hotel. His companions were detained
for questioning on Juvenile Court
matter, Mr.. Molholm said.

New York City Lawyers
Stiff Charges Of Bar Bias
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 14.-The As
sociation of the Bar of the City of
New York last night seconded the
action of the New York County
Lawyers Association by appointing
committee of 10 to investigate re-
ports that the American Bar Asso-
citation barred colored lawyers from
membership.
The city bar group voted the
same resolution adopted yesterday
by the county association and named
the same committee, including
Samuel Seabury, former Democra-
tic candidate for New York Cover
nor and head of numerous investi-
eating committees.
Others on the committee include
Charles Evans Hughes, jr., son of
the former Chief Justice, and Basil
O'Connor, former law partner OF
President Roosevelt.
The county bar association acted
after Arthur Garfield Hays, ma
tional director of the American
Civil Liberties Union, and General
Sessions Judge Jonah J. Goldstein
resigned from the ABA in protest to
what they said was a report that
the ABA barred a New York colored
assistant district attorney.

criticism of police brutality in the
report of his own commission in
1885, the Mayor, great as his ad-
ministration unquestionably has
been in all other aspects of NUM-
cipal government, has been curious
ly ineffective in the direction of
police administration of Harlem;
that his instructions to the police of
Harlem, in order to check and
eliminate police brutality, have had
the effect of making them hesitant
in the enforcement of the law,
particularly against youthful Of
tenders and this hesitancy and I'M
certainty has, on the part of police
officers, served to encourage law
lessness among Negro youth.
"We're shackled" has been the
answer of scores of patrolmen
when asked by various citizens why
they did not adopt sterner measures
in the suppression of lawlessness
in Harlem neighborhoods. AS a
result, for years colored women
have been afraid to go unescorted
on certain streets because of fear
of robbery. And even on the
avenues, or main thoroughfares
they have been constantly subjected
to lewd and insulting remarks from
corner loafers. Unchecked, these
Grant youths have grown holder
and defiant. They know Harlem is
inadequately policed.
THE FUTURE
A few weeks ago 1 suggested q
plan for the mass renovation of the
business places on the great arteriaI
highways which run through Har-
lem-Lenox, Seventh and Eighth
Avenues. The plan called for a co,
operative effort of colored anC
white business men, the banks, the
postwar planning committee of the
city, the state and the fedora
government to make these streets
beautiful and attractive. The
twelve-hour rule of Negro hood.
lums of Harlem has made this plar
vastly more difficult if not impos,
sible of attainment. For banks
don't loan money on property that
is in constant danger of being de,
stroyed by riots. And insurance
companies won't take business
risks in communities where the
spirit of vandalism runs unchecked
Before we can advance, we've
got to reform our lines. We have
got to eliminate the enemy in oul
rear. Negro social organization die
magnificent job in aiding, in re,
storing order after the riot hac
begun. They must now utilize then
resources so that such a thing car
never happen again. They mus

When employed at all, they are
on the economic fringe as laborers
and servants. The problems of
Negro poverty, illiteracy and dis
ease are merely the by-products
of this exploitation. 1t is the same
in Egypt, China, Kenya, Jamaica
and Harlem.
Can the white people be COM
pletely civilized? Of course all
problems can be solved in time but
colored folk would greatly delight
in seeing some solution before
they are utterly debased and per-
haps exterminated. Contrary to
Hitler and the thousands of Negro
phobic propagandists who pre-
coded him, colored people, too, are
human. Our white people sorely
need mass education. It is not
so much the majority that is re-
sponsible for the perpetuation of
the white problem, but the ruling
minority and its sizeable fringe
of middle class men-at-arms. Those
few, representing those whites who
pass and interpret the law; own
and publish newspapers, magazines
and books; manufacture and dis
tribute motion pictures; control
and regulate the radio; administer
educational institutions; own real
estate and enforce residential seq
regation, interpret and administer
religion and the church, are to
blame.
The majority of white and
colored folk-poor folk without
money or property-would get
along amicably and without fric-
ton if it were not for the few who,
since the 18th Century, have had
an economic interest in perpetual
ing the color line. In order to
justify their sin, they have invented
the myth Of race and used all the
powerful propaganda forces at
their command to make the masses
share belief in the myth of white
superiority and feel that they
possess some advantage in its per-
petuation. The few understand but
will not change. The many do not
understand and because of that
they will not change.
The fact that laws have had to be
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1943-08-13

pieces we are familiar almost to
the point of nausea. They analyze,
exhort, prophesy, deplore, view
Withdrawn, suggest, insist.
Implicit in all these theses is
the assumption that something
must be done for, to or with colored
folks in order to usher in an era of
sweetness and light here and
abroad. Precious little is said about
what must be done for, to or with
white people to achieve the in
terracial Utopia. One would i'm
agine that Negroes were respons-
ible for initiating the problem and
for perpetuating it.
Actually there is no Negro
problem. This is both an invention
and an evasion. The real problem
is one of educating white people
so that it will be possible for
colored people, here and elsewhere,
to live in peace and security with
out being Inundated, appropriated,
exploited and prosecuted by white
people on the basis of mythical
race. 1t is not Negroes who have
invaded white folks lands, carted
them off into slavery, destroyed
their cultures, ravished their wom-
en- and stolen their manhood. It
is not Negroes who have passed
jim-crow laws, perpetuated jim
crow customs, maintained eco
nomic discrimination, established
racial ghettos, and carried on
observation-disclosures propaganda to
strengthen the fiction of white
racial superiority. The Negroes in
creasing racial chauvinism is but
a normal human reaction to similar
prejudice on the part of whites.
It has been a thousand years
since a Negro wrote anything to
prove superiority of black over
white. No colored nation has any
white colonies. The international
capitalists who control the lives of
billion colored folk in Asia,
Africa, Australia and the Amer
icas are all white people. Colored
people do not belong to this select
group, and, in the main, are not
even permitted to serve them as
engineers, technicians, lawyers,
military men, artists and the rest
of the intellectual gendarmerie.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1943-08-13

opponent is convinced that he is
right. It is the purpose of propa-
ganda to either convince or intro
duce doubt. Such a program as
that of the Association for Toler-
ance in America can supplement
and aid other efforts for the i'm
provement of race relations, and
for this reason it should have the
support of all groups working TO-
ward this end. It is certainly a
Christian program, and there
seems to be no more fundamental
and scientific alternative so far
proposed.
