Campaign to Get
Pardon for Socialist
Workers Now On

George Novack, national secre-
tary of the Civil Rights Defense
committee, will speak on "The Min
neapolis Case: The Test of Free
Speech" at 500 p. M, April II, at
Hotel Andrews, the Brunswick
room.
Mr.. Novack is making a three
months, nationwide speaking tour
as part of the CRDC's campaign
to get a presidential pardon for the
Is Minneapolis labor leaders and
liberals, members of the Socialist
Workers party, who were convicted
in 1941 for violation of the Smith
act of 1910. The Smith act has
been labelled a violation of the
constitutions first
amendment" which guarantees
freedom of speech, by the Nation
and New Republic magazines, the
American Civil Liberties union and
others.
Professor Joseph w. Beach,
chairman of the English depart
ment at the University of Mime
sofa, will preside at Mr.. Novack's
talk, which is being sponsored by
the local members of the CRDC and
the Twin City branch of the Work
ers' Defense league.
For more than fifteen years, Mr..
Novack has been prominent in de-
tense of civil liberties and labor's
rights. He assisted in forming the
first committees for aiding the
Scottsboro defendants, and in 1882
assisted the Harlan county, Ken
lucky, coal miners. In July, 1941,
together with John Dos Passos,
Carlo Tresca, James T. Farrell and
others, Mr.. Novack was instru-
mental in organizing the CRDC.
Angelo Herndon, editor of the
Peoples Advocate, recently wrote
President Roosevelt, urging that he
pardon the 10 prisoners. Mr.. Hern-
don said, "These defendants
are being prosecuted for the
mere exercise of freedom of speech
as provided for in the federal con-
stitution." (Also for supporting the
doctrine of racial equality.)
A few weeks ago, George Schuy-
Ter, columnist for the Pittsburgh
Courier, wrote that "free speech
has taken a bearing in the case OF
the 10 defendants in the Mime
apolis trial, who are now in federal
prison for expressing their opin-
ions. Three times the United States
supreme court has refused to re-

G. B.: I am badly in need of
help. l am a married man and
really love my home, do everything
can to make it happy, yet all l
do don't seem like I get the atten-
ton from my wife that should.
1t worries me quite a bit. l have
never before witnessed a woman
who has a good husband and don't
seem to want to give him any at
tention but when someone is around
the way she shows of one would
say her husband gets plenty of
attention but I know better. But
the way she acts will make a per-
son think things. Advise me what
to do?
Ans: When company comes
around you play the part of a jolly,
devoted husband and naturally your
wife responds. After the company
leaves, you climb back in your shell
and become glum and mOrose, fore
ing your wife to do likewise. My
friend, you are cheating yourself
out of the most beautiful and salts
factory part of your married life.
The quiet intimate hours a husband
and wife spend in eOngenial COM
partnership are the ties which bind
a couple together. Love is not a
spigot which can be turned of and
on at will it has to flow in a
steady stream continuously, with
or without an audience. If you
want your wife to be a sweetheart,
take the lead and be an aggressive
lover.
A. C. W: 1 received my Reading
l sent for last month and am we'll
pleased. My mother has a problem
she would like answered in the free
column. She has a nephew out in
California and he wants to send for
her and she doesn't know if she will
be able to get along with his wife.
They send her money, always $50
at time and would it be all right
for her to go out there with them
for awhile?
Ans: Encourage your mother to
make the trip. The wife of her
nephew must be a very brOadmind-
ed and lOvable girl to approve of
her husband sending generous
amounts Of money to an aunt. If
the feeling was not mutual she
would not have been invited. If she
goes it should be with the resolu-
ton in mind to accept the new
niece graeiOusly and with love, Hv-
ing up to the idealistie picture
which her nephew has painted of
her.
d. R.: I am 16 and will finish
school this year. After l finish l
want to go away and work but my
parents want me to stay home. They
won't let me go anywhere such as
parties and dances and to see my
soldier friends. They want me to
stay at home and if l go off can
do as I please. What must do?
Ans: Your parents want you to

RANDOLPH SPEAKS
IN MEMPHIS
Continued from Page y


Neither was Chandler. The COM
mittee of invited" Negroes were
told that there had been rumors
that riot would follow any public
speech by Randolph and that the
scheduled meeting should be called
off. 1t was felt by some that since
Randolph was being invited by the
Sleeping Car Porters that Patton,
being the local head, could speak
for that organization.
Patton is said to have told the ad-
ministration officials that he had
Randolph's tickets to St. Louis ''in
his pocket" and rather than have
trouble" he would meet Randolph
when he came into Memphis, give
him the tickets and tell him he
couldn't speak here.
The attorney general of Shelby
county was too smart to have it
said that Randolph was being de-
MED the right of free speech in
Memphis or the county. What the
city administration was doing was
trying to force these Negroes to tell
Randolph not to speak.
Randolph did not make that pub
lie address. Mt. Nebo Baptist
church, the Rev. Roy Love, pastor,
remained dark that night. Efforts
to get other ministers to open the
doors of their edifices were futile.
Randolph did address the Ma
tional Convention of the Southern
Tenant Farmers Union, a mixed
group, on November and also
spoke at the White Stone Baptist
church and addressed the student
body at LeMoyne college, and spoke
at the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car
Perters banquet.
This all happened last November
This time, five months later, and
With the A. F. of L. behind him
Randolph spoke. Crump had been
whipped" for the first time.
1t is recalled that Crump has won
very political fight in the last 27
Elections. 1t is Crump who opposed
Bob Church, having to okay the
White postmaster of Memphis and
1ther Federal appointments. Folks
lere blame Crump when the name
was changed on Church's audi
:orium and park to Beale Avenue
auditorium and park.
Bob Church goes and comes but
ponds little time in Memphis.
DR.. J. B. Martin, prosperous
druggist at Florida and California.
n South Memphis, was of different
political faith than Democratic
Crump. Martin sought to speak
:or the Republicans in the last
presidential election. Crump sent
word that there would be no
'Negra" meeting of the Republi-
ans. Martin defied him. Result
vas that Martin had to leave town
md his business.
Crump is relentless. Last fall
Martin, being president of the Ne
gro American baseball league, stop
ped over in Memphis one Sunday
o watch the Chicago team play and
to pitch the first ball.
One of the Crump Brown Nuts"
got word to "his boss" A police
car visited Rosewood Park. DR..
]. B. Martin was invited" to the
police headquarters where Chief
Seabrooke told DR.. Martin that he
was not wanted in Memphis and
to get out of there that night"
DR.. Martin got back to the park
too late to pitch the first ball. He
left Memphis and hasn't been back
since.
Latest move by Crump is the ac-
ton of the Urban League directors
who forced Benjamin F. Bell, sec
rotary, to resign. Bell is being
closely watched by the local police.
More recently he has been beaten
by a motorman and the same mo-

live a normal well-rOunded life but
your education is foremost in their
minds at this time. When you grad
uate this spring they will be more
liberal in planning your social life.
For your parents to give their con-
sent to unbridled freedom would
seriously interfere with your col
lege career. Give up the idea of
going away from home to work.
NJ. A. S.: received the Guide
and it is really wonderful. l
wouldn't take four times the price
that l paid for it because it gives
me so much courage and puts new
things on my mind. l didn't know
that there was so much about my
own self that l really didn't under
stand and know. l study it almost
daily as get so much comfort
from reading it. l hope that I can
get help and a Guide every year
from the Able Wallace Service.
Thanks lots and lots. Signed
NJ. A. S.
X. x: Please tell me what to do
in my case. My mother is about
the meanest person on earth. She
is insisting that l marry a boy
who is absolutely no good but she
can't see that. My brother joined
the service and instead of being
proud of him, she raised the dickens
and acted a fool, cursed and car
ried on terrible. He joined the
church and because she acted so
bad, my sister and l didn't go to
church along with him and I think
it was real ugly for none of US to
have gone with him. Should
leave home and go heck knows
where or must l stay here and go
crazy?
Ans: With your strength of
character and determination you
can meet and conquer any crisis.
You are a pillar of strength to your
brothers and sisters and your place
is there beside them. Ill health is
the cause of your mother being in
her present frame of mind and she
should not be condemned too Sc
yerely. Talk to your brothers and
sisters and ask their cooperation in
shielding your mother from the
worries and confusion Of the home
and she may be able to overcome
his weakness. Encourage your
mother to accept medical attention.
Her present attitude shows a sick
mind and you children must be will
ing to help her regain her health.
