NOVEL; told Federal Judge
Harold R. Medina and a jury:
II object to this segregation
movement because it would iso.
late the Negro in the South and
use him as a tool to create re-
volution in the United States and
because it would sacrifice these
unsupecting people, as they had
the least understand"
He said the theory of the
Negro state was taught to him
at the Lenin Institute in Mos
cow. The party in the U. S. ap-
proved the Negro state in theory
at a 1880 convention in New
York.
NOVEL; said he joined the party
in Detroit in 1929 as an employee
of the Ford Motor Co. His unit
was not an open" one, he said,
and was made up of Ford en-
ployees.
NOVEL; said he first went to
Moscow in 1929 as an official re-
preventative of the American
Communist Party. He attended
an anniversary celebration of the
Russian revolution.

PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: Up on the Harlem End
of the Ole Avenue in search of
the most desirable of my more
favored sports in which to indulge
in my Fish and Beer l ran in
to my Old Friend Carsey Tall,
the Mail Carrier, Part Pool
Room Owner, among other things
who is rapidly becoming one of
the later day profits and pros
nostigators of Parish Street. The
subject in which he engaged me,
or in which we soon found our
selves engaged concerning the
concerned of what he choosed to
refer too as the so-called intel
ligent members of the family of
Aunt Haggar's Chilluns. The
subject went into the brave is
sues now confronting us here in
the Old Magnolia State, and the
lack of willingness on the part
of the so-called intelligent mem
bers of the family to stand-up
and be conuted. And most of all
to go down in their pocket books
and put up something to be
counted. A lot of folks have been
looking at Aunt Haggar's Chill
lun's down here in the Old Mag
nolia State and making efforts
to diagnose our case. One thing
that everybody is sure of is that
we amt got together yet. And
folks who talk to us about our
selves from the otherside of the
fence, knowing that we amt got
together yet, and knowing what
we can do once we get together
never failed to impress us, or at
tempt to impress us that our
troubles are individual matters,
and all we got to do is go after
things one by one, sort Of each
for each philosophy, that's al
ready calculated to keep up from
getting togather. One thing that
is eveident though is that this
kind of advise is not keeping us
from getting togather, but, like
Checkerboard Slim used to, say
is just keeping us like we al
ready is. 1t took Friend Carsey
Hall to wake me up on what the
things is that keeping us like
We is. Said he, the chief rea-
son for the lack of concern with
the concerns of us all on the
part of the so-called intelligent
is that the average so-called in
telligent's greatest desire is the
desire to eat. And so long as
him and his are eating they don't
want to be concerned with the
concerns of the group. In other
words, We never will get any
where as long as the best of
us are saying Give me
and mine this day our daily
bread and the devil take the
rest of'em.

'Finiun' s Rainbow"
To Be Filmed
BY DAVID BETHEA

NEW YORK; ATLAS)--When
the hit musical became the rave
on Broadway in 1947, there was
little film interest, largely because
of considerable portion of it
hinged on the transformation of
a hide bound Southern congress
man into a Negro. This, of course.
was considered taboo since this
would eliminate any showing below
the Mason Dixon line.
With the advent of Home of
the Brave and "Pinky." which are
showing in the South, film COM
panies have hurridly revived their
interest in "F'inian's Rainbow"
When 1t is made into a film, it is
believed that the aim of keeping
the white-to- Negro transformation
in the picture version will be one
of the reasons e. Y. Harburg, who
wrote the lyrics and co-authored
the book, is insisting on a final
approval of the scripting. This
factor has interrupted, momentum
lily, the negotiations for the screen
rights.

Sue To Revoke
ABC Bowling Chdrter
By DAVID j. BETHEA

CHICAGA-(ATLAS)-The Ma
tional CLIO began a suit recently in
Illinois to revoke the charter of
the American Bowling Congress.
The suit charges that the ABC,
which has been under constant
attack by many liberal organiza-
tons for it's policy, limits its MEM
bership to white males only"
The Bowling Congress was in
corporated in the state of Illinois
in 1908. The CLIO action asks re-
vocation of the charter or amend
ment if the incorporation papers
to allow enrolment of all races.
The action further charges the
ABC with a policy of discrimina-
ton against Negroes, Orientals
and other non-Caucasians, which
violates the articles of incorpora-
ton and Illinois civil rights sta
tutes as well as the state and
federal constitutions.
