She then told about her fear Of
the judge who whispered to her
in Jail that he was the only per-
son she could trust. She told how
she escaped from him by hiding
out in the woods.
I've been running like a rab-
bit ever since my husband. was
lynched," she stated.
Because of the publicity and
newspaper pressure, two men
were finally arrested for the muir
der. The jury for them was
chosen in IA minutes, and two of
were allowed to testify as to the
character Of the defendants. AL
though Mrs. Mallard positively
identified these men, they were
acquitted.
They could have caught the
men within one hour" she de-
clared. II saw their faces Every
body in the community knew who
they were. And why didn't the
police take fingerprints? They
could have called out their blood
hounds. All they needed to do was
trace the tire tracks Of the cars"
But it was the publicity in the
case that saved my hfe," she
stated.
Mrs. MaIlard's voice broke often
as she spoke, and she seemed
puzzled that such could happen
here. She compared Negroes in
Georgia to the birds, stating, It's
an open season in Georgia at all
times against Negroes, while at
some season men are jailed for
shooting birds"
II was afraid once" she stated,
but I'm not afraid anymore.
People say I shouldn't, but I'm
going back to Georgia"
Leroy Carter Of the national Of
flee of the NAACP accompanied
Mrs. Mallard on her trip. Mrs.
Mallard, by her nationwide tour
to tell her story, hopes to create
sentiment for a federal anti
lynching statute.
She was brought here under the
auspices of the national office of
the NAACP, and in cooperation
of the Minneapolis branch Of the
organization.
Albert Allen, president of the
branch, presided. He introduced
as platform guests a number of
prominent workers in the human
relations field (see photo else

ignition of their services.

Echoes from Duluth
By James 1. Moore


Editors Note: This column
arrived too late for insertion In
the April edition
Our recent criticism of the
Duluth Negroes lack of fight was
received with mixed feelings. Some
thought we went too far, while
others felt we could have gone
farther.
We admit that the accusations
were rather broad, therefore we
feel that Qualification is in order.
Among other things, this
writer said that Duluth Negroes
were self satisfied and cOmpla-
cent, unlnterested in civic and
community affairs.
This we say again-but with ex-
ception. That exception is the few
Negroes who are continuously on
the firing-line to obtain better
conditions for colored people.
Out of a total Of 400 Negroes in
Duluth, less than fifteen are
active in pushing back the ever
darkening clouds of racial pre-
JUDGE and discrimination.
These few people can't win
alone; they need your help, and
now.
The N.A.A.C.P. starts its mem
bership drive the third Sunday in
April, and runs through June, re-
flute the above by supporting this
drive 100 per cent.
One can stin hear talk in de-
tense of the places we lambasted
a few weeks ago. Some still say
that there is no prejudice shown
when Negroes visit the better
places for snack or drink.
Well, we visited three of the So
called better places last week, and
were served-after out sitting one
shift of mattresses and half of the
next. That situation EXISTS in far
too many of the downtown estab-
lishments, and this is the basis Of
my beef"
Slow and slovenly service can
mean only one thing: I'VE don't
want your patronage" especially
in places noted for prompt and
courteous service.
A friend asked me what I ex-
pected to gain from these articles,
why not let a dead dog lie? ?" he
reasoned. Well, the first thing, the
dog provides material for the
column. Secondly, these things of
which we write are facts, and
facts Of interest are news. To
quote the AMSTERDAM NEWS,
I'VE don't make the news, we
print it." Last but far from being
least, it might prod the brother
into belated action.
If anyone knows Of a place Of
refinement that offers courteous
service, where a colored person
can eat or drink withous choking
with embarrassment and anger, let
me know. An interview will be
obtained from the management
and generous space will be given
here.
We promised to tell about the
Cox family this week, but due to
lack Of information we are forced
to wait until next week.
BY the way, judging from the
rumblings we've heard, at least we
are being read.
Keep the ear phones in working
order-echoes are drifting your
way.

ST. LOUIS, MO. = A fire on

Tabernacle Baptist church Of this
city a hollow shell, but did not
quench the spirit Of the congre-
cation.
Throughout February this year
the congregation celebrated It's re-
turn home to the 100000 rebuilt
church.
Rev. John Nance, for IS years
pastor, said; The fire was q ter
rible blow to my people. We had
just spent $500 on redecorating
the old building. The people were
heart-brolen, but they quickly re-
covered their courage, and have
stood by loyalty"
The new church sanctuary seats
1000 persons and Is ON the second
floor. Another auditorium on the
ground moor seats 1850.
Tne rebuilding Of the church in
less than four years has attracted
the praise Of many st. Louisans
because the congregation Is COM

concluded

ed 10 complete the picture OF So
cial work in our Islands.
AS we go into these several pha-
seS of our work, / am sure you
will become increasingly aware,
unfortunately, not only of what
we have to offer, but unfortunate
ly, that there is also much needed
that we cannot offer.
Assistance rates are too low
(What kind of existence can there
be for relief clients when the aver
age monthly grant in st. Croix is
only $500 per month per aged
person. Services are spread too
thin. Institutions are inadequate
ly Stalled and equipped. Would
that we had all the money and all
the personnel to do everything
that is needed to relieve suxering
and want and to provide for the
general welfare of the people of
these fair Islands. Unfornately we
are limited both by funds and by
personnel and many things you
think ought to be done and we al
so think ought to be done must be
omitted. These limitations upon
the service our Department can
render are sometimes very distress
ing and it is the problem of the
community, as our Department to
bend every effort to change these
inadequacies. Even if it requires
some sacrifice in the way of tax
contributions, THE need amply
justifies it. In the meantime, we
must face these limitations as
hard facts in hard situations and
must resist the temptation to be
unduly critical of the inadequacy
of assistance or services made so
by these limitations.
The last though I should like
to leave with you is my hope that
you who learn more about our
services tonight will feel free to
make greater use of them. Parti-
cularly between our Child Wei
fare Division and you, the teach
ers of our Island, there is room
for much coordination of effort to
the end that the children of our
community shall have greater OPP
~portunity for wholesome develop
ment. Our Child Welfare Division
Gas the Department in generaI)
stands ready to help in any way
it can and shall always welcome
r%eferrals of children whom you
think we may be able to help. The
problems of agency limitations
just mentioned may make it i'm
possible at times for us to do all
we should like to do for these
children, but always / pledge you
a whole-hearted and sympathetic
effort to do whatever lies in our
power for the good of the children

The Queen Louise Home for
children IN Christiansted is, as
you know, a Lutheran activity,
but it receives a Municipal sub
sidy and, when space is available.
it accepts children in need of care
referred by our Department.
The mandhal School for Boys
in st. Thomas accepts boys from
both Municipalities. Its capacity
is about 40 but we have A boys
there. now.
The Subsidized Home for Girls
in st. Thomas, a new and small
