Flowers Charges
Jury System Bias

WASHINGTON, D. c. - Hart
ness Flowers, who with his brother,
James shot into a mob of night
riders in Mississippi, has asked
the United States Supreme Court
to review his conviction on a
charge of assault and battery with
intent to kill and murder.
He charges race discrimination
in the empanelling of jurors in
Leake County, Mississippi. The
trial record shows that no names
of colored persons were listed or
placed in the jury box from which
the grand which indicted him was
selected; that there were qualified
colored persons residing in Leake
County, and that no colored per-
son has served, or his name listed
or drawn. as a juror in that coun-
ty for twenty-years.

cent score
The Senate votes on which he
study was made were: Cutting

procal trade; liberalization of the
displaced persons act; anti-strike
injunctions; continuation Of the
Taft Hartley act; increase of mini
mum wages, basing point system;
