Allen BIames Killing
OF UIine Truck Driver
On His Co-Defendanf

Albert Allen, %. today repudi-
ated a confession he made tn
police and blamed the crime On
his co-defendant in a murder
trial growing out Of the Staying
of a Uline ice Co. truck driver.
Testifying before a District
Court jury, Allen admitted he had
told police he was in the Uline
garage, at Third and M streets
NE, when the truck driver was
fatally beaten. This statement
was untrue, he said.
At the same time. Allen testi-
fed that the co-defendant, Frank
j. Proctor, 27. had told him of
committing the crime.
The two defendants, both
colored, are accused of fatally
beating George Schomber, 80,
with a heavy push broom last
December 80 and robbing him IN
the garage.
Allen today quoted Proctor as
telling him that he hit Mr.. Schom-
Der with a stick and kicked him, I"
during the course of the robbery.
Allen testified that he had told
police he was in the garage when
the robbery was committed, after
police had told him to play BALI
with them. He also testified that
Proctor had threatened to imp1i-
cate him anyway. Allen swore he
was not at the murder scene at the
time of the crime.
Allen testified that police had
neither threatened nor beaten him.
In the course of the trial testi-
mony each defendant has testi-
fled to leaving the other near the
scene of the crime before Mr..
|Schomber was slain.
Allen also was employed by the
ice company as truck driver and
ice cube cutter. Proctor worked at
la delicatessen.

Hazel Scott
Appeared Before
Committee
WASHINGTON, D. c. (NN

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
Members of the House IN
American Activities Committee and
Hazel Scott, swing-concert pianist,
differed over the truth or falls
ity of listings of her by Counter
attack in an index of prominent
persons in the entertainment field
who allegedly have associated with
Communist or COmmuniSt-frOnt
organizations.
The committee last Saturday re-
leased for publication the testi-
mony of Miss Scott, the wife of
Representative Adam C. Powell,
Democrat, of New York, who vol
UNFAIRLY appeared before the COM
mittee last Sept. % and submit
ted a prepared statement to clear
the record of malicious charges"
that she was a Communist SYM
pathiZer.
Difference between committee
members and Miss Scott arose over
the question of whether the list
ings were false or the informa-
ton upon which they were based
was false.
Miss Scott called the published
index of alleged Communist and
Communist sympathizers in the
entertainment field by Counter
attack mud singing"
Red Channels mentioned Miss
Scott's name as reported" con-
nected with nine organizations
considered SubverSive.
Miss Scott said the publishers

CAPITAL SPOTLIGHT
BY LOUIS LAUTIER
or the NNPA News Service

There's no alibi Hobart Corning,
Superintendent of Schools, can
offer for the blacklisting of Pearl
Buck, noted author and Nobel
and Pulitzer prize winner, and
four or five other nationally prom
inent persons, including DR.. c. H.
Thompson, Marquis Childs, Buell.
Gallagher and Max Lerner, from
speaking in local high schools.
1t doesn't take Ph.D to know
that the mere presence OF names
in the files of the House Up
American Activities Committee
means nothing. If witness men
tions the name of an individual,
organization or publication in tes-
tifying before that committee,
that name is indexed with refer
ences to the testimony where the
name is mentioned.
Unless an evaluation is made OF
the testimony, the indexing ougnt
to be rated minus zero.
All of the blacklisted persons
are well known Americans. DR..
Thompson is dean of the Howard
University Graduate School, Mr..
Childs is a syndicated Washing
ton Post columnist, Gallagher IS
a specialist in the United States
Office of Education, and Lerner
is an editorial writer on the statI
of the New York Post and lee
turer. /.
The laws which the Board OF
Fducation and the Corporal Coun-
sci rely upon as requiring jim
Crow schools in the District OF
Columbia make Garnet c. Wllkln-
son the first assistant superlnten-
dent in charge of colored schools.
II Wilk is going to abdlcate MS
authority to the superintendent Oh
schools and "yess" him, as ne has
done during the past thirty years
that he has occupied the spot. the
sooner he is retired the better u
will be for the school system.
But to get back to Corning
his stupidity in blacklisting per-
sons like Mrs. Buck, DR.. Thomp-
son. Childs, Gallagher and Ler-
ner proves his unfitness for the
iob he holds. He should be tlreo
at the same time Wilkinson is
retired.
Incidentally, as a successor 10
Wilk the school board might con-
slider DR.. Thompson, DR.. Ellis y.
Knox, professor of education at
Howard; DR.. Eugene Clark, pres
ident of Miner Teachers College,
DIR. Martin D. Jenkins, president
OF Morgan State College, and Dr.
Howard H. Long, former assist
ant superintendent of schools here
and new dean at Wilberforce.
But none of these me nwill be
a ives" man to a white superln-
tendent or advocate the status
uuo'' of segregation.
At the same time the Senate
Rules Committee held hearings
five years ago on whether I should
be admitted to the Congressional
Press Gallaries, ex-senator Curly
Brooks, Republican, of Illinois,
who was. then the committee
chairman, also had the committee
take up on the same day the

touch with her in any way to
verify any of the listings made
of her.
She testified she is a member
of three unions = the American
Guild of Variety Artists, the Amer
lean Guild Of Musical Artists, and
the American Federation of MuSi-
clans. In addition, she said, her
membership in Actors Equity and
the Screen Actors Guild is such
that she can assume active sta
tus whenever she works in those
fields.

General Motors Gets
81 Of $1S. Billion
Military Contracts

Geenral Motors Corp. received
|! 8 per cent of the more than $18
billion worth of military contracts
of $4,000 or more awarded in
the fiscal year ended last June 80.
The Munitions Board, disclos-
ing this last night, said the Ma
tons 100 largest contractors re-
ceived 6112 per cent of such con-
tracts.
/ But, it added, "the award of a
prime contract to a large firm or
a small firm does not mean that
all or most of the work on that
job will be done by the prime con-
tractor. Fabrication of parts and
sub-assemblies from the raw ma
| terials which these companies
produce must be widely subcon-
tracted."
+ United Aircraft Second.
! Second on the list was the
United Aircraft Corp. with Al
per cent of the total, followed by
the Douglas Aircraft Co.. the
Grumman Aircraft Engineering
Corp, the General Electric Co.
and the Republican Aviation Corp.
each with contracts valued at 2
per cent to 212 per cent Of the
total procurement awards.
Awards to the first eight COM
panies on the list represented 256
per cent of the military prime
! contract total for the year. The
next 10 companies. each reoeiv-
ing l per cent to II per cent of
the total. represented an aggre-
gate of 1879 per cent, while the
next Is companies accounted for
I9.3 per cent, and the remaining
66 altogether represented 1877 per
cent.
First 10 Companies.
