BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK. July ga Negro
defendant at the Communist con-
spiracy trial testified yesterday
that racial bias played crucia
part in events that led him to be-
come a Red.
Taking the stand in his oWr
defense, Benjamin J. Davis, jr., 9
New York City Councilman, re.
counted his early experiences. anc
said he came to the conclusion
that Communist theories made
sense"
! Davis is the third defendant tc
testify in the 25-Week-old trial ir
which II top American Commu-
mist leaders are accused of con-
spring to advocate the forcible
overthrow of the Government.
Although he did not give de.
tails, Davis said he encountered
racial discrimination at Amhers1
College. where he got his bach.
elor's degree in 1925. and al
Harvard, where he got his law
degree in 1928.
But it was later, after he begar
law practice in Atlanta. Ga. ir
1882, that he reached what hi
called "the turning point of my
whole life"
Defended Communist.
This happened, he testified
while he was serving as cllie1
trial attorney for Angelo Hsrndon

advocating forceful resistance Il

tHerndon's 18 to 20 year SEN
tence was reversed four years
! later in 1887, by the United
States Supreme Court, and he
was freed)
This case was the turning
point of my whole life." Davis
said. II was made the victim with
my client of the worst kind OF
treatment against Negroes. The
Judge referred to me and my
client as 'Niggers' and 'darkies
and threatened many times tt
Jail me along with my client.
II was treated in such a wa!
that I could see before me tht
whole treatment of the Negro
people in the South =. So
felt if there was anything I coule
do to fight against this ane
identify myself fully with my owr
people and strike a blow agains

mined to do it,
During the Herndon trial. Davi'
said, he had to familiarize my
self with many of the Communis
books, and they made sens

Describing his background
Davis said he attended segregated
schools in Dawson, Ga, where h
was born, and later at Atlanta
He said the Ku Klux Klan burned
crosses on his fathers front lawl
and my mother died early becaus'
of the Ku Klux Klan terrorism
against my home"
At Amherst, Davis said. hi

team, debated a little, played ir
the college orchestra" and, hi
added with a grin, sang in the
choir" This latter remark brought
laugh from spectators.

The subcommittee, headed by
Senator Humphrey, Democrat, OF
Minnesota, several weeks ago an
nounced it had agreed on a bill
to report to the full committee.
AS approved by the subcommittee
the measure would have allowed
non-veteran career employees with
is years or more of Federal Serv-
ice to compete on equal terms with
veterans in future Government
reduction-in -in-force programs.
But the strong pressure brought
to bear by the American Legion
and the Disabled American Veter-
ans, as we'll as other veterans
organizatio apparently has sue
ceeded in bottling up the legisla-
ton. Committee insiders predict
it won't be acted on this year.
About the only veterans group
that supported the measure was
the Veterans of Foreign Wars,
which suggested an l8-year cut
off date.
NACA-The Senate has ap-
proved and sent to the White
House the House passed measure
allowing the National Advisory
Committee for Aeronautics to pay
$4,000 annual salaries to 10 OF
it's scientific and professional per-
Sonnel.
OKAYED-As predicted here
the other day. the Senate has ap-
proved the bill to allow Govern
ment employees. on retirement, to
designate their wives to receive
survivorship annuity benefits,
without the employees having to
take a 10 per cent cut in annui-
ties, as is now the case. The bill
provides the employees annuities
would be cut only 5 per cent to
guarantee the survivorship bene-
fits for their widows.
The measure now goes to the
House.
ACTION PROMISED-A similar
measure to extend the same privi-
leges to those employees already
retired was blocked on the Senate
consent calendar by the objection
of Senator Taft, Republican, OF
Ohio on the ground it would be
too costly.
However. Senator Wherry. of
Nebraska. the Republican Senate
whip, declared he favors the meas
ure and asked Majority Leader
Lucas to can up the measure on
the regular Senate calendar. Sem
ator Lucas promised he would try
to have this done.
Meanwhile, the House Rules
Committee meets today to con-
slider giving the, legislation clear
ance for House action.
FREEZE-The Army Depart
ment has put a temporary freeze
on all civilian hiring for jobs in
Germany. The reason is being
kept a secret by the Army, which
hopes to rescind the hiring ban
shortly.

ENGLAND:
More Austerity

In a drastic effort to rescue
Great Britain from its financial
morass. Prime Minister Clement
Attlee charted an economic course
designed to save 784 million dol
lars annually. He also ordered a
cut of 400 million dollars in dollar
imports.
THUS did the prime minister
plot a curse of more austerity for
the British people.
The savings effected, or hoped to
be effected, would result from lop-
ping off spending for national de-
tense, capital investments, public
relations and food subsidies.
Attlee presented a quick, graphic
Interpretation of what was pro-
posed. I'VE must reduce expendi-
ture and increase production" he
told the house of commons. But it
wasn't as simple as the formula
would seem to make it.
To the already austerity-weary
Britons it meant that many of the
goods for which they now have to
stand in line for hours would be
even more scarce. Gasoline and
some food items would cost more
They would have to pay a 14-cent
fee for medicines they were getting
