listen to- their complaints but
that he had no intentions of bee

When a member of the delega-
ton pointed out that the YWCA
a few blocks away permitted the
colored people to dine in its din
ing rom Mr.. DeGast said he was
running the YMCA and not in-
terested in the YWCA.
He told the delegation that the
YMCA board had two colored
members and that they had not
seen fit to potest the barring of
colored people from the VS. in
stallations.
The delegation then contacted
the two colored members of the
board, DIR. Harold M. Johnson Of
Arlington and John r. Pinkett,
Washington real estate broker.
DR. Johnson reported to have
told the delegation that he had
only been on the board for about
three months and that he did
not feel that his position would
merit pushing the issue at the
present time.
Frank Stannard, a member of
the interracial wrkshop from Kan
sas City said DIR johnson told
him he was Sympathetic to fight
against the VS. Jim Crow policies
but he did not feel the goard would
listen to his arguement.
Mr. Stannard then contacter
Mr.. Pinkett and asked his aid in
breaking down the race segre-
cation in the 7.
Mr.. Pinkett told him that he
contributed to many organizations
which were conducting such fights
as the one being waged by the
Interracial Workshop but he was
to busy to lead such an attack
on the Y.

Legal advice on the drafting of

eyes shining strangely. but she
did not move. you'll do this be

Justly to the galloWs?'
He did not answer. A startled
light of sanity shot through the
madness of unreason in his eyes,
however, as he stared at her.
'And what if l swear to you
that both are innocent, Grouse,
and poor Jacques?"
Il know you can't, Laure. /
I'm sure of it, for one of them
had to do it: there can be no one
else" Yet in that second instinct
told him he erred.
Except G harian's wife,

pected first, the one whom you
hunted first!'
Come nearer" he pleaded.
Let me look into your eyes -

YES, m'sieur." She knelt be-
side him, looking at him with
soft, melancholy eyes.
Look at me, Laure," he whis-
pered hoarsely. Hear me! AS
God is my judge, I believe l was
mistaken. You're innocent! II
love you!'
She was so close that his we'll
hand touched her flushed cheek,
but she evaded him and rose to
her feet. For an instant she
stood thus, looking down, and
then she hid her face in her own
hands and burst into bitter, pas
S1onate tears.
