Bishop Sims Routed
As Long-winded AME
Court Battle Ends

NEW YORK-The Battle of the
Bishops" Of the AME church over
jurisdiction of the wealthy and
powerful First Episcopal District
came to an end with a clean-cut
win for Bishop Richard r. Wright,
Jr., over the longtime omnipOtent
Bishop David H. Sims, his cohorts,
and the New York annual con-
ference of the African Methodist
Episcopal Church, Inc. here in the
U. S. District Court last week.
After an embarrassingly stormy
session for holy litigants, the court
ruled: Richard Robert Wright,
Jr., is hereby declared the duly
appointed Bishop over the New
York Conference with full author
ity to act therein, and is the sole
person entitled to preside as the
Bishop thereover by virtue of the
action taken by the Bishops
Council on June 81, 1916"
The judgment was further that
David II. Sims and all his rep
resentatives were enjOined and
restrained from:
Acting as Bishop, directly or in
dirartlv Ocpr NNAC or DprfOrn-
ing any powers, duties, or func-
tions thereto allied; interfering
with r. r. Wright in any manner
to prevent his performing duties,
functions, or exercising powers as
Bishop over NYAC; directly or
indirectly pretending as Bishop
over NYAC: interfering with the
orderly conduct of any church
within NYAC.

Long Doesn't Agree With Grim

Long Doesn't Agree With Grim
introduced by Frances Logan,
DR.. Long proceeded TO straighten
Mr.. Grim out about the NAACP's
uncomprOmising policy. He de
clared the group had firm convic-
tons Of not compromising one iota
from their goal Of full Indignation
Of Negroes into the American way
Of life. THE organization sues for
civil, human, and legal rights" DR..
Long declared. The speaker be
lieves these methods are only one
approach and all corrective meth
DDS tend 70 enforce themselves.
LOgan's Book
DR.. Long, in proving his point
Of full racial equality, used the in
cident concerning the Negro au-
thor, Rayfeld Logan. Mr.. Logan
edited a book, What the Negro
Wants" The book had quite a few
opinions from professional Ne
groes who differed on several
points but were all similar as to
the degree Of what the Negro
wants in American life.
The publishers refused to pub
lish the book at first but were
forced by Logan's persistence.
In closing, DR.. Long made the
parting remarks that organiza.
lions working for better relations
should continue to state clearly
what they want.
Mary Crenshaw, president OF
the group, presented to the au.
dience the following group off.

dent; Catherine Rains, recording
secretary; Doris Escue, CORE.

George Grim, columnist on the
Minneapolis Tribune, and DR.. Her
man Long, of Fisk University,
were the principal speakers at a
Minneapolis JRior NAACP meet
ing held SUNDAY, Feb. 9, at Phyllis
Wheatley stttlement house. The
theme Of Brotherhood" was pre-
scented to the audience by Miss
Mary Crenshaw, the presiding
president.
Mr.. Grim expressed his firm be
lief of the good Of organizations
seeking better relations among all
racial groups. However, he said
that young people should proceed
cautiously and not be discouraged
if at first there is no visible evil
dence Of improvement.
Grim said he believed Paul Robe
son made a mistake in quitting the
stage 10 crusade for racial toler-
ance. Grim feels Robson could do
more good by continuing his con-
certs making contacts with all indi-
viduals Of all creeds and colors.
On the question Of the Human
Relations Councils Self Survey,
Mr.. Grim said it definitely is a
step in the right direction and the
survey would help in the re-educa-
tion Of prejudiced individuals.
Grim summed up his speech by
saying that brotherhood shouldn't
be practised only one specific week
but the remaining ffty-one also.
He felt the Junior NAACP could
help make this possible by their
combined effort with other organi-
cations working for racial toler-
onnn

Oscar CleVe Praises
Trygve Lie as Democrat
by OSCAR CLEVE
Alderman, Ninth Ward


Union men in the United States
these days are wondering how a
man with such political affiliations
could rise to such an information
ally important office as Secretary
General Of the United Nations. The
huge, black haired, fifty-year-old
Norwegian will unquestionably
give added evidence to that query
when he, in the role Of guest
speaker, will address the Mime
apolis Round Table of the Ma
tional Conference Of Christians and
Jews at the Nicollet Hotel on Mon
day. Feb. 18th.
At the age Of sixteen, with So
cialist interests, Lie (Lee) resolved
to become a labor lawyer. Upon
graduating from Oslo University
Law School in 1919, he was ap-
pointed secretary Of the Norwegian
Labor Party. In the next fifteen
years he became its general coun-
sci and member Of its National
Council.
In March, 1895, when the Labor
Party came into power, Lie was
made Minister of Justice. In 1887
he became Minister Of Commerce,
responsible for building up Nor
ways food supply for the then ap-
parent approaching war. Lie was
one Of the last cabinet officers to
leave Norway ahead Of the ap-
preaching Nazis. With authority
Of the Norwegian Parliament, he
officially became head Foreign
Minister.
In London he radioed over one
thousand Norwegian frcighting
vessels into British ports despite
countcr-commands issued by the
"Quisling government" Lie per
sonalIy m de agreements with
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
and President Franklin d. Roose-
welt to substitute underground
saboteur destruction in place of
general indiscriminate bombings of
Norwegian factories.
Lie was popular with English
royalty and enjoyed much of their
aristocratic hospitality during his
five years in London. And despite
the long established economic al.
lance between Norway and Eng.
land, it was the Soviet Union dele
CATION which proposed him as
Secretary General of the United
/ Nations!
In this capacity he has executive
powers of bringing matters before
the United Nations special coun.
ellis for immediate action. He did
so in denying jurisdictional power
to the UN in the Iran and Soviet
Union dispute. He again opposed
American British delegations
views by vehemently opposing Ar,
gentina's admittance to the UN
He is also anti-Franco.
Lie and his Social Democrat
Party in Norway are not consid
cred radical but are recognized fol-
their pure democracy" which they
call best in the world. When plan:
were being brought up for UN
buildings, he advocated a simple
sturdy office building. The whole
key to Trygve Halvdan Lies char.
acter may be determined in his re.
marks at this occasion. In gut
tural voice, and not too perfect
English, he said: I'VE delegates
are plain people working for plair
people all over the world. I hope
we can show we are working in the
interests Of all common men anC
women everywhere and working
without the old diplomatic tricks

Speaking at Independence Hall,
Senator Francis J. Myers, Demo-
crat, Pennsylvania, declared that a
retrogression from the moral prin-
ciples Of the 18th Amendment had
been in large measure responsible
for catastrophe wars. at is true
that the last vestige Of slavery has
disappeared in America, but one can
yet detect the rumblings of latent
forces which would subjugate whole
classes Of people because Of their
race, color or creed" the Senator
declared. THE people who encour-
age them are the shame Of the
nation-the organizations which
tester them must be erased if free
dom is to forge ahead"
Adam Powell Speaks
The second speaker at Indepen-
dehce Hall was Representative
Adam Clayton Powell, Jr, Demo
crat, New York. He pointed out
that freedom in America is only
the right and the privilege to fight
for freedom. 1--WE of this generation
should be happy in the fact that
freedom has not been handed to
us, but rather that whatever free
dom we shall enjoy shall be free
dom that we must obtain for our
selves" he said. THE war is over,
but the fight to live has just be
gun" Powell added. I'VE can not
indulge in the luxury Of partisan
politics. We must strike down divis-
i've factors and leaders who come
into our midst with age-old tao
ties and honeyed promises"

He is president of the Citizens

founded in 1921.
Perkins said that New York

law against racial discrimination
on jobs-unless a man has the
right to work, he has not the right
