Denies Final Plea
OF Willie Francis

Washington, ID. c. (DSN) -
The United States Supreme Court
here Monday finally disposed of
the case of Willie Francis, CON-
! demned Louisiana negro, convict
ed of the murder of White
druggist of st. Martinville, Lou
isiana by refusing to consider its
ga decision of January 18th, in
which the court held that the
state of Louisiana is legally en-
titled to carry out the death SEN
tence.
The case of Willie Francis came
before the court and has attract
ed nationwide attention because
Francis was not electrocutd when
first placed in the Louisiana ell
ectric chair, to pay the penalty
for the crime.
The fate of Willie Francis now
rests entirely with the Governor
of Louisiana.

Congress Should
Give Rights 10
All Citizens

WASHINGTON, d C = Con-
gress can speed the elimination of
race tensions by enacting legisla-
ton which will assure to all citiz-
ems their full rights, regardless of
their color or race, declared Sem
ator Gden H Taylor Democrat, of
Idaho, in radio address here last
Sunday.
Speaking over Station WINDS in
the forty-fifth broadcast Of Gamer
leans ALL" sponsored by the In
stitute on Race Relations, Senator
Taylorf shared the microphone
with Ben Kurki, Japanese-Ameri-
can was hero, and Mrs. Grace s..
Yaukey, sister of Pearl Buck, the
author.
When the United States freed
the slaves it took upon itself an
obligation to educate both races and
make it possible for them to live
together in peace and harmony,
Senator Taylor said. "That it has
failed to do so is one of the most
shameful marks in our national
history" he told his radio audi
ence.
Stating that this country must
try to achieve the equality which
the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution demand and
which every "God-fearing Amer
lean" knows is just, Senator Tay-
lor said.
l have often heard it said that
you cannot legislate racial atti-
tudes. This is a lie. Race hatred
has been legislated all over the
South. The laws of many states
require that the Negro occupy a
seperat and degraded position.
They constantly mark him out as
an object of scorn' and brand him
with the mark of inferiority.
we must remive that legislat-
ion of hatred" he continued. ave
musta remove the laws which say
that a Negro cannot vote, or viii
CHI say that Negroes must not go
to the rear of the bus, shamefac-
eddy elbowing their way through
the crouds of whites at the front
| have never seen anything
more degrading than the spectacle
of southern trolley car with
Negro running the gauntlet of
hate on the way from the fare
box to the rear seatt.
Senator Taylor said the only
hope of the colored peolpe lies in
the direction of progress and that
they will get a fair break only
when the nation selects a Con-
gress which gives every man a
fair break because it values hui
man rights above property rights
He added that he had-noticed in

AMERICANS ALL

Many books have been published
during the last few years to show
that America is not a nation built
up by one group of people, but by
immigrants of all nations -. A
new addition to this literature has
been made by the anthology of
short stories Americans One and
ALL" just published by Harpers' -.
The anthology, edited by Harry
Shaw and Ruth Davis, both native
Americans, contains twenty-three
stories, each representing heroes
and heroines of a different nat
ional group in the United States.
The central idea is to prove,
through the short story that all
are Americans wholly or
even primarily Slavs or Jews, or
Irishmen, or Italian or Chinese s. Z.
The Jewish short story is written
by Stephen Vincent Benet {.
It's plot is interesting and deals
with the time when a large part of
what is now the United States
was nothing but wilderness inbah-
tied by Indians -. It tells the
story of a young Jewish immi-
grant who came to America from
small German town.

WASHINGTON NOTES


Hope has not been abandoned
for passage this year of the bills
which provide for the admission
Of a larger number of displaced
persons to the United States :.
Some Washington circles are GER
tain that Congress will have to be
reconvened in October, in view of
developments of major importance
which will take place within the
next few months +. The DIP bills
will then have a chance, it is be-
licved In the meantime, a
project is now being preached in
Washington by Maine senators,
who want to bring several thous-
and DPS into their state for sew
eral months training in a number
of local industries which private
industrialists are willing to de-
velop for this purpose These
industries, when set up, would
greatly help certain localities in
Maine to become centers of small
industry After a training
period of six months, the DPS
would be sent for permanent set
tlement to several Latin-American
countries which are willing to ac-
cept them, providing they are
trained to operate American ma
chinery /. Other DPS would then
come in to fill their places, also
fer a six months period of train
ing, and for later emigration to
Latin America . The project
is to operate for two years, after
which no more DPS will be
brought in, but the factories will
remain, operated by local workers
Who will receive their training side
by side with the DPS during the
first two years Certain Latin
American governments have al
ready expressed their willingness
to grant immigration visas to such
DPS The U. S. Government,
too, is willing to grant them tenn
porary six-month visas in order to
enable their training in this coun-
try Of course, bonds will have
to be put up for these DPS, guar
anteeing that they will leave the
U. S. for their final destination
at the expiration of the training
period The project has the
approval of the highest circles in
Washington and is attracting
Jewish attention, since a majority
of the DPS would be Jews :.

Oman Withdraws Webbel
As CHAPLAIN 10 Labor
Rx the Associotsd Press

RICHMOND, Aug. 13.-Bishop G.
Bromley Oman of the New York
East Conference of the Methodist
Church has withdrawn his appoint
ment of the Rev. Charles c. Weber
as chaplain to organized labor and.
has placed him on the conferences
supernumerary list.
Mr.. Webber and other Methodists
here explained that a minister on
the supernumerary list retains his
full prerogatives as a clergyman but
the church has no official connec-
ton with any position he accepts.
Mr.. Webber, president of the
State CIO Council and director of
the Political Action Committee in
Virginia, said the change in his
status came about because Bishop
Oman reached the conclusion that
present church law does not give
him authority to appoint chaplains
to organized labor.
He said further that the New
York East Conference, of which he
is member, had voted overwhelm-
ingly to petition the Methodist Gen.
eral Conference, which meets next
year, to amend the law to give
bishops the authority to appoint
ministers to organized labor.
