HOLLYWOOD BIGSH0TS PLOT
TO NIX OUT JIMMY EDWARDS

Rated by critics as the hottest
movie find of the year, Home of
the Braves" star, Jimmy Edwards
is discovering that Hollywood S
biggies are freezing him out of
future roles that would bring him
greater celluloid fame.
The handsome young personality
is the subject of an extensive pic
ture story in the February issue
of OUR WORED magazine which
appropriately calls him Holly
woods Bronze Valentino" in view
of the fact that thousands of
women, young and old, have swoon-
ed over him. The cold shoulder
treatment was given hiIa. the arti-
Gle states, when some critics start
ed mentioning him for an Oscar
award for giving one OF the best
screen portrayals of 1949.
However, Edwards isn't content
to remain on the shelf of obscurity
and is taking his case to the peo-
pie in the form of personal APP
pearances in vaudeville houses
throughout the country. His COM
bination of boyishness and suavity
have tended to build him into a
symbol of negro youth a happen
ing coming at a time when a re-
placement is being sought for
heavyweight champ Joe Louis since
his retirement from the ring.
Liked by men because he dis
plays the qualities of being "reg-
ular guy" Edwards is eagerly
sought after as a speaker before
civic groups. And with the people
who pay their money at the box of
flee standing solidly behind him,
producers and directors will have
to pay heed to their demands that
Jimmy be given bigger and better
parts.

Gov. Folsom Saws
Negro Not Given
Fair Dea! In Court

Birmingham, Ala, Dec. % -
Negroes are not getting a fair
! deal at the hand of Justice and
jury, in this state, declared Gov.
E. Folsom here last week. The
gubernatorial head was speaking
at a Meeting held in "a local hotel
in defense of his pardon parole
board.
Many complaints were made over
the recent granting of paroles to
II prison inmates, seven of whom
were negroes. The Governor said
that the board will release only
those who ought to be freed.
Speaking of the negro, he said:
while | realized that negroes, due
to the lack of economic opportuni-
ty, education and life in general,
do not have the same chance as
do the rest of our people, | do not
believe thay have been given fair
deal at the hand of Justice and
Jury in this state.
There are sections of this state
where a negro doesn't stand
Chinaman's chance of getting fair
and impartial Justice OF an equal
footing with the white man.
The fee system and niggardly
treatment of negroes at the bar of
Justice are tools which are used to
keep the poor white and the negro
subservient and submissive.
He pointed out that the fee sys-
tenn, by which most county officers
are paid, accounts for half the
people in prison, and said 65 per-
cent of all prisoners were negroes
although they represented only 35
percent total population Of state.

Blood Bank Officials
Undecided on Future

The governing board of the
Community Blood Plasma Bank
remained in disagreement today
on what disposal to make Of $22,-
600 in the treasury since opera
tions were discontinued 80 months
ago.
Some members feel that the
bank might be reactivated and
that the money should be held
against that possibility as an aid
to speedy renewal of the work.
Others favor donating the sum
to the Red Cross, which now sup
plies blood and plasma free. The
local bank retired from the field
when the Red Gross adopted this
policy here in February, 1948.
The board is composed of five
doctors and a layman. The bank,
a non-proflt, independent institu-
ton, originally was financed by
the Central Labor Union and Fred
S. Walker, manager of the Trades
Unionist. is secretary-treasurer of
the banks board.
The board has not met for two
years now. but informal discus
sions have gone on between the
members.
Some of the physicians favor
setting up a general fund to be
administered by the hospitals in
behalf of INDECENT patients. Mr..
Walker believes, however, this
would be unnecessary because the
Red Cross alerady is supplying
free blood.
