tgas on her way home from church
when the attack occurred.
The Alabama section of the
Southern Conference for Human
Welfare was preparing to send a |
delegation to the governor this
week to demand that the six men,
who are known, be brought to trial
and punished according to law.
Miss Buckmaster, in accepting
craftsmanship Of the national
committee, said:
"The south suffers from great
many diseases, one of the most vir-
ulent being the Cult of the White
Woman. This cult has been the basis
of considerable lynch legislation.
The effect has been the complete
degradation of the southern white
woman's dignity. She is beginning
to resent and hate the crimes that
are committed in her name. If the
white woman suffers from this cult,
you can imagine the burden it places
upon the Negro woman"
Assemblyman Hulan Jack, Sec
retary-treasurer OF the committee,
denounced the attack on Mrs. Tay-
lor as an act worthy of a fascist
setup, rather than the American
system and declared that the fight
against Alabama in this case was
part and parcel Of the struggle
to outlaw all such barbarism."
Eugene Gordon, investigator for
the committee, who recently inter-
viewed Governor Chauncey Sparks
of Alabama, and secured from him
the assurance that the case was be-
ing investigated, told the dramatic
story of how he made his way to
Recy Taylor's cabin on the out
skirts of Abbeville.
"Getting there was no different
than it might be travelling in the
European underground. You had to
make your way from one person tc
another, the right persons, in order
to be received and trusted and told
the truth"
Recy Taylor committees are now
being formed in every state.

Mayor Ronald w. Lane announc-

from the district OPA office. Mayor
Lane said that he expected that
six or seven others would receive
permits by this weeks end.
Further encouragement was Of
fered in City Manager A. c. Mic
hols' announcement that the meat
shortage is expected to be relieved
by July l. Meanwhile, Whining
ton ans were awaiting word from
the Office of Price Administration
in Washington in response to a Pc
tition of more than 500 names pre-
sen'e ed last week in a plea for more
meat for New Hanover county.
Although no word had been re-
ceived last night, it is generally
believed that additional meat for
tn s area will be forthcoming soon.
The main point favoring addition
al meat for this area is the I'M
mense shift in population from the
tributary section of New Hanover
county, according to Representative
J. Bayard Clark. He referred to
war workers who are spending a
great amount of ration points not
issued in New Hanover county.
Grocers within New Hanover
county should record those ration
books not issued within the county,
and records should be submitted
to the OPA, Rep. Clark suggested.
1.-The OPA," he said, should be
prevailed upon to accept these fig
ures in making an adjustment"
Early action in the issuance OF
permits to local slaughterers is pre-
sumably the result of City Manager
Nichols discussions with the dis
trict OPA in Raleigh last Friday.
In his conference with the district
officials, Mr.. Nichols presented
data collected from the local
slaughterers, and impressed them
with the gravity of the meat sit
uation in the Wilmington area, and
the need for early relief.

Those members of the dis

In addition to the better shelter,

Theorists who argue over proper

for such a nation can watch to see
whence comes the Reich's frs t

Will it be from crumbled cities,

there would be grave doubt that
the guilty person would ever be

uncertainty over jurisdiction.
Someone recalled that a man
died a month or So ago at the
ma ional airport, across the river
from the capital, and no coroner
would declare him dead.
Although the bill fixes the pres

not breaking rocks fast enough.
