Letters Of Criticism FLOODING
Office Of Chief Executive from
All Over the Nation and Abroad

a white Southerner, a lifelong
resident of Georgia, that both my
parents have always lived in the
South, and both my grandfathers
and one great-grandfather fought
for the Confederaey," Odom Fam
ming, leading Atlanta journalist
wrote the Governor. 'Those
facts should qualify me to ex-
press my indignation at an in
justice now being perpetrated in

of Tee Davis"
George w. Crockett Jr., execu-
tive director of the UAW-CIO
Fair Practices Committee wrote
the Governor: Eve now have
had an opportunity to read the
appellants brief in the Supreme
Court of Arkansas. From a read
ing of that brief and basing our
opinion entirely upon the admis-
sion of the States witnesses, it
is apparent that the Courts de-
cision is a gross injustice which
should be rectified. 1t is diff
cult to find any other basis for
the decision except outright race
bias"
From Honolulu the Round
Table Youth Fellowship of the
Nuuanu Congregational Church
sent a letter to Governor Laney
saying: 1--WE feel that to punish
man simply because he was
unfortunate to be born with a
black face is contrary to all demo-
cratic and Christian principles"
A letter from AFL Federal
Local 1906 in Milwaukee said:
1T seems to US, as it should seem
to all fair minded people, that
the evidence in the case does not
warrant any charge whatsoever
against Tee Davis, but should
rather be placed against the Off
GERS at least to the extent of dis
orderly conduct or conduct un-
becoming officers of the law"

Libel Suit Against

New York - Joseph Curran,
President of the National Mari
time Union, announced today
that a check for $4,000 was re-
ceiVed this week from the Hearst
Corporation, thus climaxing a six
year court fight by the Union

defaming the NMU and its mem
bers.

check brings the total damages
Won by the Union in this libel
action to $4,000. 1t stated that
its suit was the first ever filed
and won by an American trade
union against broadcaster and

pany, which sponsors Winchelfs
breadcasts, settled for $4,000 and
the Union used these funds to
establish schools to train its men,
bers for leadership. The $4,000
is the largest sum ever collected
by a trade union which had sued

settlements were negotiated by

uprising"
By Walter White, Executive
Secretary, NAACP, Guest
Columnist

Columnist
On February Goth, the nations
press, charged with the RESPONSE
bility of reporting the news fairly
and accurately, blossomed into
an orgy of race riot headlines.
The New York World Telegram
under bold type screamed Seven
Hurt in Tennessee Riot as Ne
groes Battle Cops; the liberal
New York Post, in an Associated
Press release, headlined Shots
Fly in Race Rioting in Tennessee"
One newspaper devoted a full
page to riot photographs under
the stfeamer Highway Patrol
men and Guardsmen Bring Riot
ing Negroes Under Control
AS the press wires out of Col
umbia, Tennessee, hummed hot
with the latest flashes on the
riot, the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People rushed seevral reliable in
veStigators into the seething
Southern community. They un-
covered as shocking a tale of mass
terrorism, unbridled vandalism,
and murder as America has
known since the hooded Khan
first robbed, mutilated, and
burned defenseless Negro citizens.
Readers of the Negro press
have by now received a far more
accurate picture of what actually
transpifed than have the men
and women whose sole informa-
ton came from the misleading
dailies. They know that Column
bia is noted for its arrogant
lynching, seevral years back, of
a l3-year-old boy from the court
house WindoW-after a duly con-
stltuted grand jury had declined
to indiet him for rape They
know that on the morning of
February q, after a night of
cold-blooded preparation, the
State of Tennessee's uniformed
storm-troopers lay down a ma
chinegun barrage, battle fashion,
in the segregated Negro residen-
tial section. They know that
these discriminating facts never
made the respectable dailies.
Nor did the daily press print
the pictures of Negro businesses
wantonly wrecked by the police;
insurance company offices, fu-
neral parlors, barber shops, pool
rooms, and a doctors office. And
to cap the climax of fraudulent
reporting the dailies which used
the shocking photographs dis
torted the truth behind these pic
lures of men, women and even
children, many of them bloody,
herded together in the streets,
hands raised high, surrounded by
heavily armed police and state
troopers.
Among the important steps that
need to be taken in the Columbia
case is a coast forecast protest by
local groups to editors and The
wire-serylces for the biased por-
trayal OF the 'rIOung Negroes"
The great free press OF Amer
lea, which at every tmn Dodsts
