London Play Is
Raped By NAACP
Ask Name Change

NEW YORK, N. Y.-The National
Negro Congress this week, in a wire
TO British Ambassador Lord Halifax,
expressed deep concern over New
York Times report that a play by
Agatha Christie entitled Ten Little
Niggers" was currently running at
the Cambridge theatre in London,
and urged that the thoroughly OBJ
jectionable title be dropped.
Recognizing the large numbers OF
American troops IN Britain poised
for the final attack against fasclsm,
the Congress pointed out TO the
British Ambassador that continued
running Of the play under the pres
ent title is an insult to Negroes and
other democratic Americans and q
serious threat 10 morale and unity
Of American troops.
AT the same time NNC official:
registered strong protests TO Lee
Shubert, Broadway producer re-
ported to be associated with Amer
! lean production Of the play. DESPITE
Mr.. Shuberts insistence that the
play does not deal with Negroes ane
/ that the American version VII
carry another title, the Congress:
made clear It's shock and complete
resentment at American production
! Of a play with such background
/ of chauvlnism and fascist ideology
A similar protest was made TO th,t
! Theatrical Editor of the New 4orl
Times by the Congress for prlntini
