English, who has prison rec

defendant Ralph Cooper asking

National Hearing

on citizens that Hearing Is Price

An estimated $4,000, 900 people
in the United States have some

In a letter to DIR. c. Stewart

In such a verdict. should the
judge grant the defense motions.
the jury would be directed TO
acquii the defendants.
In arguing the motion for di-
rected verdicts, Raymond Pace
Alexander, who heads the staff
Of NAACP lawyers defending
two Of the men, declared:
The evidence against the Six
is too confused and nebulouS, too
uncertain, to beset with fatal con-
Predictions to permit the jury 10
speculate on the evidence and to
guess what happened on January
q. l948 (the day of the murder)
and to guess and speculate on
the guilt or innocence of these
defendants.
Other Grounds
Other grounds on which the de-
Tense based its arguments are
that the corpus deficit. or evi-
dence that the crime was COM
mitted, has not been proven; and
that there was a fatal variance
between the bill of particulars
and the opening address of the
prosecutor that this was a muir
del committed in the course Of
a robbery, and what the state
showed, to-wit.
only an atrocious assault, at
the very best, on Mrs. Mcclure
(Horner). for which no one of
the defendants is indicted, and
the murder of Mr.. Horner, not
Committed in the course OF rob-
berry for in fact that the State
case itself negatives any robbery
or motive or plan to rob and Mrs.
Horner says there was no rob-
berry"
The defense also contends that
the State has placed beyond the
use of these defendants the vital
" important evidence bearing on
their innocence of any robbery

nare of national defense,

name of national defense.
Our government has rightly ia
ken many varied steps to secure
the essential materials of war for
our defense program. Contracts
with defense manufacturers make
allowances for increased costs.
Tax amortization programs allow
for vast expansion of production
facilities to be paid for by the
government. So many doubtful
amortization schemes nave been
approved that on August ID De-
Tense Mobilizer Charles E. Will
son ordered a halt to new appro-
walls for two months pending ar
rangements for new system Of
screening applications. Every
consideration has been given and
will be given to industry to see
that defense production is achiev-
ed without financial loss to the
business concerned. Will this
same consideration be given to
the cotton farmer?
Unless a concerned program of
governmental action is under
taken to stabilize the cotton mar
ket and offer better price to the
producer, the cotton farmer will
be punished instead of rewarded
/ for his assistance to the defense
effort. The cotton producer has
asked no special consideration, but
he is entitled to equal treatment.
If the present trend of the cot
ton market continues, strong
effort will be made during the
coming winter to revive the par
ity formula and the price support
system in relation to cotton. I'm
der present high prices 80 per
cent of parity is not equivalent
to a minimum wage standard for
cotton. 1t is not the satisfactory
floor to provide full assurance
against bankruptcy for producers.
With no more evidence of as
sistance and cooperation from his
government than he has received
in 1850 and 1851. the cotton farm
er cannot be exepcted to main
tain continued high level of
cotton production in 1852. Cotton
will remain an essential item of
defense production, but the pro-
Queer must have some assurance
of a better price.
(Taken from remarks that /
presented on the floor of the
House of Representatives on
Thursday, August %, 1881

You are wondering the reason
for the truck and all that funny
business, no?"
YES" l replied, "at first l ex-
pected to see smoke and a fire
engine or at least an angry rent
collector. What's it all about?"
And then he told me. 1t seems
that Walbeck is just a short dis
lance from the Russian border
according to the military route.
