Negro Congress Asks
Fay for Immediate
Scott Death Inquest

The National Negro Congress yes
terday said 1t had sent a telegram
to United States Attorney George
Morris Fay asking an immediate
inquest into the death of Charles
w. Scott, colored, who died Novem-
Der 2 in District Jail after receiv-
ing an incubation of anti-tetanus
serum.
Scott had been in a traffic acci-
dent, when a stolen car he was
driving crashed into truck, caus-
Ing the death of Detective Harry
Hamilton. The District Commits
sions declined to order an inquest.
Reached at his home last night,
Mr.. Fay said he had not seen the
telegram. He said it probably will
be at his Office tomorrow morning
and he viii study ii, and see If he
has any comment.
Demands Immediate Inquest.
Mrs. Marie Harris, executive Sec
retary of the Washington Council
OF the Congress, said the telegram
read:
Facts brought out in our ex-
animation discredit coroner,s re-
port Of death Of Charles w. Scott
In District Jail. The people have
q right to know the facts concern
ing the death of any man in police
custody. We therefore demand i'm
mediate inquest to clear up ap-
parent mystery.
Having been referred by Dis
trict Commissioners to Chief of
Police and by Chief of Police to
District Attorney, we request ap-
pointment at your earliest conveni-
snce to submit important additional
evidence revealed in our investiga-
ton"
Mrs. Harris did not reveal the
nature Of new evidence" DR..
Robert S. Jason, head of the pa
shology department of Howard Uni
versity, at the Congress request,
conducted an autopsy upon the body
Of Scott, with his parents r1nsent.
Death Ruled Accidc
In his finding, DR.. r.. Donald
held the death was accidental and
was caused by an anaphylactic shock
following injection of the serum,
even though a skin test indicated
such a reaction was not to be ex-
pected. Questioned later about the
absence Of an inquest, DR.. MacDon-
aid explained he had found no
suspicious circumstances indicating
need for such a hearing.
A panel of lawyers representing
the Congress legal advisers and
members of the District Bar Asso-
citation and National Lawyers Guild
met Wednesday evening with Curtis
Mitchell, attorney for SCOTS sur
vivors, who also had represented
Scott. They discussed "discrepan-
cies" in the report of Coroner Mac
Donald, Mrs. Harris said. DR.. Ja-
sons findings were at variance with
the coroner's decision, she declared.

the work of Edward Mangum and

"Lysistrata At bears only faint

Athens with laughter In All BIC.
We have retained the original
theme, calling 1t, however, q love

with a different twist: and some
of the same locale and characters.
But that is about all. Our play is
a modern satire on modern con-

caste system, peace conferences
and blow-hard but do-nothing
Senators. There are probably a
hundred different institutions or
