In the session which ended
Saturday, Congress approved
Government spending which
amounted to 1886 for every man,
woman and child in the country.
The final compilation by the
House Appropriations Committee
showed today that Congress
voted $91, ,626, ,563, ,164. That does
not include an estimated 81 bill
lion in more or less permanent
allotments which include such
items as about Sc billion on the
national debt.
$685. for Each Person.
On the basis of 154 million
population. that means $685. for
each person. While not a rec
ord outlay. it is the third highest
IN history, pelng exceeded only by
two World War II years.
The money appropriated was
S4.444,877,171 less than President
Truman requested. That repre-
sents reduction of 4.6 per cent.
Chairman Cannon of the House
Appropriations Committee cited
the statistics as support for his
contention that Congress should
return to the system of appro-
priating all money in a single bill
instead of handling the Federal
budget in a dozen measures as it
did this year. The single-bill
plan was tried last year for the
first time in recent congressional
history, but was discarded this
year over Mr.. Cannon's objections.
Says Arguments Disproved.
THE facts" Mr.. Cannon told
reporter. have disproved both the
arguments that were made
against the single-bill plan. These
arguments were that savings were

recently at the Washington Elementary

I've Been Thinking
BY Cab Galloway

BY Cab Galloway
If you have never met gentlemanly
gent from South America, you just don't
know what the word nice means. l have
lust been chatting with Senior Manuel Ovan-
do, who will accompany the band on its trip
to South America. Senior Ovando is the
icing on the cake.
But the thing which has me hepped up
is the whole idea of our Montevdeo Junket.
It seems that we are to be the prime at
traction at the historical Carnival of Monte
video.
Now, from what Don Manuel tells
me- the Mardi Gras at New Orleans is small
potatoes compared with the Carnival OF
Montevideo The Carnival lasts for almost
six weeks is sponsored by the government
as a gift to the people of Uruguay from Its
ruling body.
For five and a half weeks we will play
at every conceivable kind of an affair. We
will be playing at the world-famed Teatro
Soils we'll play at gala balls for the visit
ing dignitaries and for the government Of
ficials. Well play in open-air stadiums s..
and we'll be feted, ourselves.
This is the first time an American band
has been imported for the famous Carnival,
an event which is almost as old as the
country itself. But they tell us that in
Uruguay my band is the most famous OF
all American bands. I am humbly proud.
1t is interesting to note that Uruguay is
one of the only countries in the world which
is free of debt. The country is completely
solvent The gold for the Carnival is taken
out of treasure which has no pains.

ON February II, 1851, why can't they wor-
ship together on February II, l3 and etc.
The Negro is just as human on other days
as he is that particular one. If segega-
ton is wrong one Sunday out of year, we
feel that 1t is wrong every day
As we listened to the speakers OF the
white group who shared the roster with No.
groes, doubt erept in our mind that TINS
speaker who is minister of one Of the large
churches in the area would welcome Negro
worshippers in his church next Sunday. And
we could not help feeling that 1t was
comparative few whites in the audience who
would extend an invitation to an individual
Negro to worship and commune with him
at his respective church.
These interraeal meetings held once a
year where whites and colored are singing
and praying together may have their ef-
feet, but we are a little bit skeptical and
far too impatient. We will take the NAAC
p where we can fight together in the courts,
and it is our bet that democracy will work
darn sight faster.

Irony In The Nth Degree

The interracial goodwill meeting held
ut Bethel AME church Sunday was con-
sidered by us as being mock ON our
democratic system. However, 1t proved the
southern system Of our way OF life as
practiced by the white man, and accepted
by many of our Negro leaders in the south
does not hold water. The white man teaches
Ito dignity the Negro, will indgnify the
white man.. That was disproved Sunday
Whites and Negroes rubbed elbows to-
gether, and listened attentively to addresses
and sermons, that were meant for address
es. and no one was taken away in an am
bulance, and neither was the riot squad
present.
The meeting was well attended, by
white and eolored. Despite the irony OF
the meeting, we feel that the presence OF
many whites was a prompt of goodwill,
while most Negroes were present from
curiosity. But what we are unable to UNI
derstand is the existing of interracial good
will and greater Little Rock brotherhood
only one day. If democracy can work one
day, just why can't it work every day? II
whites and Negroes can worship together

they are superior to the Negro?
The stupidity of the southern regime in
fostering segregation, is not only doing the
United States impairable harm in its rela-
tionship with foreign countries, but furnish
es plenty amusement for these countries.
What the south is too stupid to under
stand is that 1t cannot hold the Negro in sup
preston without being held there itself.
Proof of this assertion can be found In any
statistics. We of the south have got to bow
to the rest of the nation. But when the
young white man throws off the veil of ig-
norance that was placed by his forefathers
and permits his eyes to look into the sun
light, he will realize the absurdity of his
fathers stupidity, and different story will
be written into the annals of our country.
Arkansas State press., 1951-02-16
The Absurdity Of Stupidity

II the white man in the south knew the
position of inferiority he places his children
in to perpetuate his vanity of segregation,
he would do the ostrich trick and poke his
head in the ground, that is, II he had con-
science - that we doubt.
-. The southerner teaches his children
that they are far superior to the Negro, and
to maintain that practice to substantiate his
teaching, he spends far less than half per
capita to educate his child than is spent to
educate the Negro child in the northern.
eastern. and western parts of the country.
With that amount of money being spent to
educate the white child in the south, while
the rest of the country is spending about
double that amount. just how can he be so
deceitful with his young ones in telling them

The Trenton Six Story

The Central characters in the story are
six young Trenton Negroes-Horace Will
son, John Mckenzie Coils English Ralph
Cooper, Mckinley Forrest and James
Thorpe-on trial for their lives a second
time in one of the most confusing and COM
plicated murder cases Of our time. This is
how the story began:
On the morning of January q, 1913,
73-year-old William Horner was beaten to
death with a soda-pop bottle in the back
room of his combination junk-novelty shop
and home. Mrs. Elizabeth Horner, his wife,
knocked unconscious in the front room of
the shop, managed to crawl to the front
door to call for help.
Frank Eldracher, cigar salesman,
walking from across the street to his car
(Which was parked in front of the Horner
store) saw Mrs. Horner and ran to call
the police. He later testified that when he
was less than ten feet from the door of
the stoe-and before he noticed Mrs. Hor-
ner-he saw two Negroes, both rather light
complexioned, come out of the store. Mrs.
Virginia Barclay, who lives across the
street said she saw three Negro teen
ayers" run from the direction of the store
and jump into a foor-door green 1886 Ply
mouth sedan in which fourth youth was
sitting.
Apparently the two eyewitness stories
furnished the premise that six Negroes
were involved in the crime Police began
their man-hunt, combing the poorer sections
OF town and the Negro district of Trenton
and nearby communities. Three days aft
er the murder, the Trenton Times an
nounced that the streets would be patrolled
by a Heavily armed motorized bandit
squad" and that "all men found on the
streets without good reason would be ques-
toned by plainclothesmen."
On February 6, ten days after the muir
der, Coils English, ga veteran with
malaria and rheumatic heart--was ar
rested for driving his fathers two door black
1888 Ford sedan without a license. Police
questioned him about the Horner murder
grilling him continuously for 10 hours until
he signed confession.
When Mckinley Forrest, 49, Englishs
brother-in-aw, came to police headquarters
the next day to find out why English had
failed to return home, he too was arrested
So were four others named by English in
his confession" Mckenzie, "a;
James Thorpe, %; Ralph Cooper, %; and
Horace Wilson, 81
All six were kept incommunicado for
four days and five nights, denied sleep,
subjected to relentless interrogation and
threatened with violence if they did not
Confess" Five of the six signed "confes-
sions."
Arkansas State press., 1951-02-16

Here are the facts when the Trenton
Six went on trial for their lives on June Is:
The two eyewitnesses had described the
young men they saw leaving the scene of
the crime as ghtcomplexioned. Five of
the six defendants have dark skin.
Thorpe the only lightskinned one, had
had his arm amputated eight days before
the murder. No witness spoke of seeing
a one-armed man at the scene.
Mrs. Horner, while still recovering
from her wounds, was taken to Police Head
quarters and shown the suspects. She fail
ed to identify any of them. Later when
shown their pictures individually, she "iden-
tilted" all six of them.
Neither Eldracher nor Mrs. Barclay
would identify any of the six men as "a
mong the men they saw near the scene of
the crime.
The car English had been driving lille
gally was two-door black Ford sedan; the
car alleged to have been used by the Grim
inals was described as a four-door green
Plymouth.
Robbery was assumed to be the mo-
tive for the murder. Yet police found 81 GAP

had been given doped drinks and strange

Three of the six were at work.

and signed receipt with another name

his signature as anything but "X'
After an eight week trial, the jury
weighed the evidence and on August 6
brought back its verdict: GUILTY!!!
Eleven months later the Supreme
Court Of New Jersey reversed the lower
court decision on three technical counts
and ordered a new trial for the Trenton
Six. The National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People had filed
brief as friend Of the court in the appeal.

the legal defense of these victims of mis-
carried justice.
