tiee Robert H. Jackson

Truman today that practi-
cally all persons connected
with German nazism be made
to stand trial as war crirni-
nails.
While negotiations are con-
tinuing with the major European
Allies for an international tri.
bunal to try top Nazi war crimi-
nails, he proposed that the United
States should be prepared to
conduct the trials "alone IL
necessary"
Jackson, American prosecutor
for the Allied War Crimes Conn
mission. made a blistering report
TO the President on Nazi atroci.
ties and charged that Germany
was guilty of international brig
andage."
The justice officially charged
that Germany instigated the sneak
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor,
Dec. z. 1941. which plunged Amer.
ica into the worlds most devas-
tating war.
CALLS FOR JUSTICE
He sternly declared that all
Germans guilty of atrocities. sra-
clal or religious prosecutions since
1933-six years. before the war
began-should be brought to trial
Jackson recommended in his
first report TO the President that
firm justice be meted out to the
German general staff, every top
Nazi leader, the gestapo and the
SIS corps.
The long list of the accused, he
said, would include individuals
and officials in the financial, In
dustrial and economic life of Nazi
Germany who by all civilized
standards are provable to be COM
mon criminals"
Jackson's report disclosed that
the United States proposed to the
other Allied governments a month
ago that the top German war
criminals be tried before an inter.
national court, and that negotia.

Windsor Offers
Detroit Meat Aid

The city OF Windsor indicated
today it is willing to ease its en-
barge on meats and poultry which
prevents Detroiters from buying
those commodities IN the markets
there.
In letter TO Mayor Jeffries,
Windsor Mayor Arthur ,. Reaume
declared II seems 10 me some ar
rangement could be worked out
so that we might assist in this,
your hour of need"
The Windsor mayor, acting as
meat and poultry supplies in De-
troit became increasingly scarce.
called for a conference 10 discuss
methods OF using Canadian sup
plies 10 alleviate the situation
here.
Reaume declared:
UNDERSTANDS PROBLEM
II have followed with inter
est the various discussions in
your city regarding the meat
shortage 81. have some idea
of the real problem confronting
you. The people of this city
want you to know that we are
deslrOus of doing whatever we
can to help.
1T is my feeling that officials
from Detroit and representa-
tives from here should meet at
an early date To discuss the
whole matter.
THE embargo on meats and
poultry was made effective only
because conditions here became
intOlerable. This condition was
brought about by the constant
flow o: people buying on the re-
tail market.
However, II seems TO me
some arrangements could be
worked out 80 that we might
assist in this, your hour OF
need"
The embargo resulted from a
situation which found DetroiterS

clarcd his intention of departing
seemed in no hurry. He slipped his
drink with pleasant elaboration
and devoted himself to the task Of
extracting inform ito from
Thomas ROyde as to the conditions
of life in Malaga.
ROVde was monosvllabic in his
answers. The everyday details Of
existence might have been secrets
of National Importance from the
difficulty with which they were
dragged from him. He seemed to
be lost in some abstraction of his
own, out Of which he reused him
self with difficulty to reply to his
G~uestioner.
Ted Latimer hdgeted. He looked
bored. impatient, anxious to be
gone.
Suddenly interrupting, he eN-
claimed:

wanted. They're in the hall. I'll

THOMAS ROYDE knocked out
his pipe and said in his quiet re-
Elective voice.
That confirms what I have al
ways thought-that there are times
when one is justified in taking the
law into ones own hands
What do you mean, Mr..
Royde?'
Thomas began to refill his pipe.
He looked thoughtfully down at his
hands as he spoke III jerky discon-
nected sentences.
Suppose you knew-of a dirty
piece of WOrk-kneW that the man
who did it isn't accountable to eN-
listing laWs-that he's immune from
punishment. Then l hold--th one

That was all. A regrettable &C.

other side to the story. A farmer,
some time previously, happened TO
have passed up a certain path IN
a wood nearby. There. IN a niue
clearing, he had noticed a child
practicing with a bow and arrow.
He paused-to let his meaning
sink in.

credulously, that it was not an ac-
cident-that it was intentional?

Audrey said:

about what really happened?'
Mr.. Treves said eravely:

ADAM POWELL URGES Hall -
TO BLIND HATRED OF SOUTH;
CITES NEW DIXIE LEADERS

Washington, D. C. (NNPA)-
Congressman Adam Clayton
Powell, Jr., spoke last week to the
student body of Howard Univer-
sity under the auspices of the Alpha
Kappa Alpha Sorority, celebrating
its Founders Week at the Univer-
sity.
There is no such thing left as
a solid south, sectionalism is van
ishing in America" Powell told the
students. "The hour has arrived
for Negro people to no longer con-
denim their enemies wholesale; nor,
can their enemies be confined to
one section or segment of the pop
ulation. Hatred will result in
poisoning those who hate. We must
recognize that today the enemies
of the Negro people are the enemies
of all people and that they can be
found in all races including the
Negro race-in all countries-in all
classes and in all sections"
The Congressman declared "there
is rising in the South a new white
man who is breaking from the rut
of blind hatred for the Negro. This
new white man can be found not
only in the fields, farms and mines
but also in the privileged, educated
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1945-03-02

and professional groups" He cited
men like Virginus Dabney, Rich
mOnd, Virginia; Mark Ethridge,
Louisville, Kentucky; Governor
Arnall, Georgia; Senator Lister
Hill, Alabama; Ex-President Homer
Rainey of Texas University; Chan
cellor Frank Graham, North Caro-
lima and Lillian Smith, Atlanta,
Georgia as those who were repre-
sentative of the best of the South.
The most noteworthy event in
contemporary political history was
the revolt of the vast majority of
the southern Congressman against
the dictatorial rule of Rankin, Cox
and Company, he said. at is in
teresting to note that only sixteen
remained with the former solid
south in last weeks test on the
George Bill. Eighty Congressman
came out from under the anti-demo-
cratic, un-American influence of
their outmoded leadership. Today
the South is on its way to a full
place in the life of this nation and
in the life of the world and the
Negro must stand ready to cooper
ate with all groups aiming at a
better society"

would vote for a bill with enforce
ment. When some of the Represen-
tatives seemed vague and would not
commit themselves, Representa-
tive Gallagher gave them some
thing of a rebuke when he said 'Tf
you believe in a thing you ought
to fight for it."
After asking many questions for
information as to the extent of dis
elimination in Minnesota, Repre-
sentative Harold Hagen said that
he would support the present BIZ
partisan bill H.R. 2232, which pro-
posed enforcement powers and
would support any amendment or
change that would strengthen the
bill.
