in the queens court.
The Coronation Ball will go

fashionable. Mr.. Walter Vernon
is president of the club and Mr..
Ronnie Brach, secretary. and all
members deserve great credit for
bringing the idea of having a

floats that will line the streets

Obituary


To the Editor: l just returned
from funeral services for my
friend Wyatt Williams. Portland
attorney, whose untimely death at
46 is distinct loss to this COM
munity. I was one of nearly 500
people who filled all available
seating and standing space to ca
pacity. There was present CROSS
section of community life-judges
from the circuit, district and mu-
nicipal courts, many of Wyatt's
fellow members of the bar, coun-
ty officials, businessmen and
women. And there were hundreds
of plain people whom the attor-
ney had helped throughout the
years. The elderly lady who sat
next to where l stood wept bit
terly as she whispered to me that
she was very grateful to Wyatt
for having helped her obtain an
old-age pension.
Wyatt had the respect of bench
and bar earned through years of
fairness and honesty and 1t is
readily understandable that all
judges of the circuit. district and
municipal courts were honorary
pallbearers. From hotel boy to
lawyer is a long road to travel
and it is still longer road to
win the esteem of the members
of the profession. Wyatt trav-
eled both these roads and at the
end the public paid him a fit
ting tribute.

of similar risk seeking the
same type Of insurance.
Mr.. Plummer. who made his ac-
cusation before the annual meet
Ing of the Urban League here on
Sunday at Benson High School,
went on to say that. THE prac-
tice in Multnomah County is
based. I'm told, upon the premise
that the Colored insured involved
in an accident which later be-
comes the foundation of court
trial, cannot get fair treatment
and justice before what is gener-
ally an aIl-white jury, and the
company would have to pay more
in the way of judgment against
the insured Colored person. I
cannot. however. agree with these
individuals who would indict the
jury syste m of Oregon to
strengthen their illegal practices.
We demand proof, we cannot be-
lieve, We do not believe, that the
fair and impartial jurors. and
they are In the majority, shall
desire to, or perpetuate a jury
system based upon the premise
that people of color are not en-
titled to equal justice in the
courts"
Mr.. Plummer spoke also before
the last regular meeting of the
Vancouver, Wash, branch of the
NAACP on the filibustering In
the National Congress. He was
accompanied by Mr.. Raymond
Wilson. chairman of Portland
Branch legislation committee.
Other activities of the branch
include preparation for the NAM
moth card party being planned
for May 5 by Mrs. J. w. Inger-
soil and her Committee on Com
munity Coordination. All ac-

the hub the Annual Membership
