Guilty To Murder

Albert Cole, &c, accused of the
fatal stabbing of his wife, Leah
Cole, on the morning of Sept. l,
pleaded guilty Monday Oct. % to
a charge of murder in the second
degree in Hennepin district court.
Cole was sentenced to life in
the state prison by Judge Theo-
dore Knudson. Public Defender
Lewis f. Scoop Lohmann told
the court that he felt Cole was
the victim of a tremendous emo
tional strain at the time he stab
bed his wife. Lohmann said he
did not feel that Cole was vicious
and pointed out that he attemp-
ted to end his own life at the time
of the fatal cutting.
He said that because of Coles
youth he hopes that in a few
years his sentence can be COM
muted to a shorter term.
County Attorney Michael Dill
Ion told the court If such an at

Bothine Beach
Owner To Stand
TTioI For Bios

In Hennepin County District
Court at $50 Friday morning,
Emil Engberg will stand trial be-
fore Judge Theodore B. Knudson
for violation of the Minnesota
Civil rights law.
Engberg, operator of Twin
Lakes Beach near Robbinsdale,
will be tried for refusing to ad-
NIT a IS year old Negro lad to the
Twin Lakes beach.
The Negro, Robert Baker, and
three white youths, all of whom
are in a state home, had been
taken on an outing and picnic by
Jack Simos of the State Childrens
Bureau.
When the group approached the
beach, they were told that col
ored boys are not allowed on the
beach," by Engberg.
Simos later testified that, on
informing Engberg that he was
violating the law, he (Engberg)
told him he didn't care about the
law and that Simos could report
him.
Throughout the preliminary
hearing, Engberg has contended
he did not violate a state law, be-
cause the civil rights laws do not
specifically designate the word
beach.
The courts, however, ruled that
the question Of whether beaches
are to be included in the civil
rights statutes could be sent to
the Supreme Court for clarity.
However, the defendant, repre-
scented by Ernest Erikson, enter
ed a plea of not guilty to the in
formation and will stand trial.

was named after President
Monroe Of the United States.
The u. s., while II maintained
distant interest in the affairs Of
this offshoot whose establish
ment II was more or less respon-
sible for. was really Indifferent
toward it for years. When the re-
public was first established
American presidents refused TO
officially recognize her because OF
pressure from the slave holding
south. Southerners were jittery
over the idea Of an independent
black country treating with the
u. s. on a basis Of equality. They
probably feared that a Liberian
minister might ask embarrassing
questions about the slavery OF
Africans.
Lincoln's Era Brought Country's
Recognition as Sovereign Nation
1t was not until Abraham Lin
coin became president that the
United States even recognized
Liberia as a sovereign nation.
One Of the sights which / found
pride-inspiring was the state Of
Illinois gifts Of reproductions Of
the papers Of Lincoln dealing
with Liberia. Included was a
bronze bust, the only replica
ever made Of a bust done by n
noted civil war sculptor. The or
iginal is in the State Library of
Illinois at Springfield.
In addition, there Is a mural by
the talented young Negro artist,

Illinois. II was my privilege TO

presented and accepted.

interesting to observe that his
sympathies lie with the big busi-

termined is Mrs. Zaverl to ex-

Security For Aged

Security For Aged
Mrs. zaverl believes in security
for the aged. her committee AYERS.
At a recent meeting, Mrs. Zav-
erl stated: To-day the maximum
allowed under Old Age Assistance
is $50 a month, and relatively
few people receive that amount.
We can not expect a person TO
maintain a decent minimum stan
dard of living on such q paltry
sum. 1t is fundamentally wrong
to ask our needy aged to spend
their last years in poverty and
hunger"
Mrs. Zaverl says she found
these facts about Wnght's record.
In 1888, when the Old Age Pen
sion bill was first introduced, the
Rules Committee requested the
OAA Bill be made a special order.
Mr.. Wright voted no. On the final
passage of the bill, so vital 10 the
best interests Of our people, this
same senator is recorded as mt
voting.
I'm 1885, on a motion to kill

appointing a conference commit

as not voting.
In 1889, on the final passage Of
a bill requiring a lien on home
steads Of Old Age Pensioners, we
again find this senator not vot-

has fought against granting a

provide a 81 hour work-week for
women, he is shown as not vot-

voting. In 1887, on an amend

him not voting. 1t Is not by mere
accident, points out Mrs. Zaverl,
that Senator Wright is always
found to be not voting on such
measures of vital concern to
wage earners.

"Of special interest to many
people is this senator's stand on
