NEW YORK, June Is (ANP)-
Booker T. Washington and Harriet
Beecher Stowe we're honored by
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey during ex-
ercises at New York university.
A message from the governor
lauded Mrs. Stowe, author of
"Uncle Toms Cabin" as a personal
ity that occupies a unique place
in the proud pages of the country's
history" Her novel was mo acci-
dent" in arousing "the conscience
of nation" he said. "All her life
she showed herself woman of high
purpose. All her life she worked for
freedom and human justice"
There is more organized hate"
in this country today than during
the period preceding the Civil war,
said Golden Brown. The bust of
Booker T. Washington, founder of
Tuskegee institute, was recently un-
yelled at New York university's hall

ARNOLD CLEARING UP
HARLEM "

NEW YORK, June 25 (ANP)-
With the return of James C. Arnold
to his old stamping grounds in Har-
lem, Y.W.C.A. workers who for
merly made this Y the talk of the
country are slowly rallying around
to bring order out of what has just
about amounted to chaos.
Many things have happened in
the 135th street institution since
Arnold went to Washington to
pinch hit for Col. Campbell C. John
son who had been drafted" to a
position as assistant to Gen. Her
shey in the selective service.
However, Arnold is taking his
time before making any but abso-
lutely necessary changes in current
programs.
In Washington, Johnson is back
on his job, having failed to get the
appointment as assistant to Gen.
Bradley. Johnson says the job was
offered him once but he refused it
because of certain policies in the
VA when asked about his views,
Johnson gave the administrator
some ideas, which it is alleged were
incorporated into the policies, but
Johnson was not called again.
The grapevine has it that John
son is being groomed to take over
the job formerly held by Charming
H. Tobias as secretary for Negro
work with the national body in New
York. Nothing definite can be
learned on this and anything that
is said is only conjecture.

REGISTRATION DENIALS

ATLANTA, June 25 (ANP) -
The office of Dist. Atty. M. Neil
is investigating numerous com
plants that in several counties both
white and Negro people are being
refused the right to register for
voting in the state Democratic pri-
mary of July II.
Mr.. Andrews also reported that
further complaints are being re
ceived that whites and Negroes are
being arbitrarily purged from the
ist of qualified voters.
From Rome, Ca, meanwhile,
came word early that petitions chal-
enging the right of $50 Negroes to
7ote July II were filed with Floyd
County Board Of registrars by
Vaughn Terrell, solicitor of the
Floyd City court.
The solicitor was quoted as say
ing he would file $50 similar chal-
lenges daily until the total of some
200 Negro registrants in Floyd
have been challenged. He further
declared his intention of checking
criminal records there "for so years
back" and of asking the registrars
to strike from the lists the name
of any Negro who has been con-
victed Of a felony or a crime in
volving moral turpitude.
Andrews said he had received
no official notification of Mr.. Ter
rells action, although Floyd county
IS in Mr.. Andrews district.
A prepared statement by Mr..
Andrews said partially:
1t is my duty to investigate all
complaints reaching this office that
charge an illegal denial of the right
IF a citizen to register or to vote
ana IN proper cases TO Dflng crlml-
nal action against those who deny
or attempt to deny the lawful ex-
ercise of the right to VOTE"
In Sumter county, meanwhile, a
group Of Negroes was planning civil
lction in the courts against the
board of registrars there, charging
that some 600 of their race had been
stricken from the list in that county.
Middle Georgia Dist. Atty. John
P. Cowart revealed in Macon last
week that his office is investigating
similar complaints in that section.

SEND VETERAN BACK TO
CHAIN GANG IN GEORGIA

IRENION, N. J., June 20
(ANP)-The New Jersey State Su-
preme court ruled that 2O-year old
Negro u. S. Army veteran, Jay
Gould Cotton, must return to a
chain gang in Georgia.
In part the state supreme court
decision said: 'Tt is clear that the
asylum state of person fleeing the
state of his conviction for a crime
has no right to consider the merits
of his trial, but only the question
as to the obligation of the asylum
state to surrender the person to the
state from which he fled"
The courts decision backed New
Jersey Supreme Court Justice
Joseph B. Perskie's ruling in Allan
tic City in May when he refused
the review of extradition proceed
ings. Supreme Court Justice Per
skie indicated that New Jersey has
no right to rule on the legality of
Cotton's trial in Georgia.
The Asbury Park, n. j., Ameri-
can Legion post engaged an at
torney, Robert Queen. for Cotton.
Queen said that his client was Ia
years old when he was sentenced
and should have been tried in a
juvenile court rather than a crimi-
nal court.
Cotton, war veteran of three
campaigns, stated that he received
cruel treatment from older men of
the chain gang and he escaped two
weeks after his conviction. He came
to New York and under the impress
sion there that he had to register
for the draft, did so under the name
of his father, Mack Cotton.
He enlisted in May, 1912, in Rich
mond, Va, under the name of Bud
die H. Brown, indicating his age
as %. AS a technical sergeant he
spent % months overseas and was
SO percent disability when dis
charged.
Cotton was shot in his right knee
about two months ago near Free
hold, N. j., by a New Jersey state
trooper who thought he knew him
as draft dodger.

$4,000 DAMAGES ASKED IN
RAILROAD jim CROW SUITS

CHICAGO, June 25 (ANP)-
Following swiftly the supreme
court decision declaring Virginia
Jim crow coach law unconstitu-
tlonal, two separate actions charg-
ing discrimination and asking $685.
900 damages each were filed here
against the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad company on behalf of
James E. Stamps of Chicago and
Ennis L. Powell of Charleston, w.
Va.
Mr.. Stamps, manager of the
southside office of the Social Sc
curity board here, also is general
president of the Alumni associa-
ton Of Fisk university and is active
in Chicago civic affairs. Mr.. Powell,
West Virginia state manager for
the Supreme Liberty Life Insur-
ance company, is a member of the
executive board of the Alumni as
sociation of Fisk. The two were en-
route to attend meeting of the
association when they allegedly
were Disseminated against by the
railroad.
In a complaint filed before the
Interstate Commerce commission
in Washington by Attys. Earl B
Dickerson, Sidney A. Jones Jr., OF
Chicago and Belford V. Lawson OF
Washington, Stamps and Powell de
clare they were refused service ir
the diner of the Louisville and Nash
vile train because the table SET
aside for Negroes was occupied. Al
though several tables in the white
section of the diner were vacant
they were not allowed to use them
the two men said.
The complaint charges that acts
of the railroad company are in VIC
lation of the Constitution of the
United States and of the statutes Of
this country, and asks that the rail
road cease such violations and dis
continue the discriminatory ane
humiliating practice of using cur
tains around tables in the diner re
served for Negro passengers.
Atty's Dickerson and Jones, com
menting on the suit, referred to the
recent Virginia anti discrimination
victory, observing that the decision
was placed on very narrow grounds

Lobbyists Fill IA Columns

The lobby barometer of the pres
emit congress has run up pres
sure record this session which lis
probably an all-time high. Never in
the history of the capital have
there been more pressure groups
operating, as the istings under cas-
sociations" in the classified section
Of the Washington telephone direc-
tory testify.
The. Associations" fill IA columns
and very few are not interested in
some kind of legislation, pending or
prospective, and interested enough
to have an Office in the capital or
at least telephone number. There
are a lot more with offices under
the hats of their representatives,
which prefer to remain anonymous
to the public.
Alphabetically speaking, the
American Automobile association
leads the list, and the Zionists and
George Zook conclude it.
One newcomer has nudged itself
right up to second place-the AM
vets, one of the 26 veterans organ
izations listed, including the Ameri-
can Legion and the Buck Privates
association as examples of the old
and the new.
Alcoholics Anonymous appear,
not so anonymous this time. There
is the Association of University Pro-
fessors, and right next door, the
University Women, which makes it
congenial. There are bakers, bank
ers, members Of the bar, and Ono
relation) bottlers Of carbonated
beverages.
The "antis" are present-four of
them: nti-Cigarette alliance: Anti
Defamation league; Anti-Poll Tax
committee; and, of course, the Anti
Saloon league, to balance the Liquor
dealers and the Distillers institute
further on down the page.
Certain happier combinations sug-
gest themselves. Take the National
Caterers and Sandwich Makers as
sociation and the Mayonnaise and
Salad Dressing manufacturers who
together symbolic fine old Amer
ican institution.
There is specialization in lobby
ing, too. Don't think the National

rous Metals manufacturers let's the

special needs.

setback for the second time when
the sturdy, middle-of-the-road
Frenchman got behind the middle
of-the-road Republican Catholic
party, and defeated the Commu-
nists, just as an earlier vote killed
the constitution which the Reds
wanted.
Because Hitler knew his greatest
hope for a Nazi rebirth was Com
munistic Germany, his spirit prob
ably rejoiced when the iron curtain
went down on Germany's eastern
frontiers, and one of Russia's bor-
der countries after another were
bulldozed into one-party, 1eftist-
front rule.
With France turned Communist,
Germany would be an island in
a red sea, and would soon have
to take on protective coloring, it was
assumed. The next step, according
to Hitler's hope, was the reaction
to Naziism.
Now, for the first time since We
Day, France seems to have shaken
off her carmine shackles. Before the
recent election, some quarters
were predicting that if the French
middle class and peasants could not
get rid of the left-wing domination
with ballots, they would try it with
bullets. The left-wingers themselves
were warning OF reactionary revo-
luton, and as late as the spring of
this year dire warnings were be-
ing sounded.
Donald B. Robinson, former civil
affairs officer in France, wrote in
the April Mercury magazine that:
"In no nation of northwestern Eu-
rope are there such distrust and
loathing between classes and groups
as in France today. The bitter dis
sention which has driven General
de Gaulle into retirement, and con-
