Florida Daily Backs
Anti-PeOnage Fight

Miami (ILNS) The Miami Daily
News has championed the rights of
Negro workers, some of them AFL
longshoremen, who, it is alleged, have
been the victims of mass arrests and
have been fined without trials at the
hands of Sheriff Walter Clark at near
by Fort Lauderdale.
Gliding federal grand jury which
recently failed to indict anyone for
the mass arrests which the Workers
Defense League exposed, the News
editorially suggested that a new grand
jury hear the cases:
"It is too bad that the federal grand
jury was unable or unwilling to ad-
minister permanent check to the ap-
plication Of the opposite policy in Fort
Lauderdale. The cases should not be
allowed to rest. 1t will not do to con-
done injustice"
The paper, owned by former Ohio
Governor James M. Cox, declared that
failure to indict was dangerous lax
ity," and pointed out "the fact that
only Negroes were caught up in the
vagrancy dragnet, that these Negroes
were denied their day in court, and
that the provably innocent were pun.
ished with the guilty. And that just
isn't justice under the American Con.
stitution and the laws of Florida"

BY BERNARD s. O'HARA,
Associated Press financial Writer.

NEW YORK, April 1l.-Rails,
steels and motors led another for
ward movement in today's stock
market which gave many leaders
gains ranging from fractions to
around points.
The plentiful supply OF idle In
vestment money was the source of
much of the buying power and short
covering also helped.
Volume was about 1,000,0 900 shares,
largest in two weeks.
Confidence of bidders seemed
based on the idea the market had
discounted a number of things that
we're worrying the financial COM
munity a few months ago, including
the finish Of the war in Europe
and reconversion uncertainties.

NEW YORK, April l1.-Iron Age
reported today that Pittsburgh units
of United States Steel Corp. we're
hardest hit by coal mine stoppages
and slowdowns, but added that coal
shipments from the south were said
to be easing the supply situation
somewhat.
Effect of the coal situation had
not yet reached the Chicago dis
trict early in the week due to bet
ter inventory position.
The volume of steel orders is
down very slightly this week the
Trade Journal said, although not
sufficiently to establish any definite
trend. Some speculation is being
heard that major steel consumers
are trying to thin down their in
ventories as they did last summer
in anticipation of cutbacks consid-
cred imminent.
District Offices of steel producers
report that there is more hest
tant attitude on the part Of buyers
to place steel orders, and plate mills
are somewhat concerned over the
order picture for the coming months
1t is felt by some that unless SUBJ
stantial orders are forthcoming soon
operating rates will be adversely af-
fected during hte summer.
Word is now that the end of ma
jor hostilities in Europe will imme
diately bring cancellations of about
5 per cent of total war contracts, tc
expand to around II per cent dur
ing the next three months.
