Worried Over
RandIeader's
Arrest

New York.-The arrest of band
leader "Wild Bill' Moore mere
last week on a traffic violation
has aroused the interest of mu-
sicians throughout the country,
as many feel that it will affect
their travelling in their own au-
tomobiles. Union officials also
have expressed interest, and in
Dictated that they will have mem
bers of their legal staff at the
trial when it comes up in two
weeks.
Coming down from Troy, N. Y,
where he and his band had played
an engagement, Moore was STOP
ped by Traffic Officer Mccoy out
side of Briarcliff. The latter gave
him ticket on the charge that
his car had an out-of-town regis
tration tag and he also possessed
out-of-town operator license. The
auto was registered by Michigan
vehicle authorities as was his driv-
er's license.
Invoking a rarely-used section
Of New Works Uahio1n e. Ira fife
laws, the officers contended that
Moore had been in the state 80
days and under the laws anyone
residing in the state more than
that time had to obtain New York
registration and drivers permits.
Ralph Cooper, Moore's booking
agent, and Carson Dewitt Baker,
his attorney, told reporters that
they had in their possession con-
tracts that showed Moore and his
band had played dance engage
ments out of the state within the
last month and that the New York
address that appears on tn sub
poena is that of friend where he
resides whenever business brings
him into town.

Crisis Warns
Against Red Attack
On MAAcP

New York, March 3.-Members
of the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie are warned to be on guard
against attempts by the Commun-
list party to discredito take ov-
er the organization in an editorial
published in the March issue of
"The Crisis, the Associations
monthly organ.
The editorial, entitled "The
NAACP and the Communists" re-
calls the conflict between the
two organizations in the Scots
boro case and asserts that the
Communists have renewed their
attacks upon the Association, the
object of which is ito discredit
NAACP leadership, local and ma
tlonal; to tear the Association
apart through suspicion and strife
to take it over, if not obviously.
then OBVIOUSLY, SO as to control
its elections, meetings, speakers,
program, policy, conventions,
resolutions and other public
statements"
"Our NAACP membership.
therefore, should be on guard
against this campaign" the edi-
torial concludes. "It should be
remembered that the Communists
do not hesitate to lie when lies
will serve their purposes, that
they are masters of misrepresent-
that they prattle about democracy
in other organizations while main
tanning an iron-handed non-dem-
ocratic procedure in their own
party, and that their aim is to
use the Negro and his problem
mainly in support of Communist
party policy and only incidental
ly in support of Negro rights"
