Georgia Scion
Sees End Of
School Bias

BLOWING ROCK, N. c., July %
"A Georgia Congressman believ-
ed Sunday that the U. S. Supreme
Court has already decided to out
law segregation in public schools.
Representative James C. Davis
CD of Georgia's Fifth District,
called upon officials of Southern
states to join with Georgia against
what he called ''The usurpation of
the state and of the people which
are ours under the Constitution"
He said the U. S. Supreme Court
which has called for new argu-
ments on the segregation question
in October, invited the attorney
general to participate so that, as
Davis put it, the Executive and
Judicial branches could combine "to
bypass Congress to perform an act
which neither of them has the con-
stitutional right to perform sep
arately."
Davis told the South Carolina
Press Association Meeting Satur-
day night he believed the Supreme
Court 'has already made up its
mind to commit this unconstitu-
tional act"

NAACP Asks
Rehearing For
Florida Rape
Trial Victim

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, July @
A motion for d rehearing for Wal
ter Irwin, twice convicted and SEN
fenced to death in the Groveland
rape" case, has been filed in the
Supreme Court ! of Florida. The
papers were filed by attorneys of
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
here this week.
Twins second conviction was
affirmed by the State Supreme
Court on June % with Justice Hob
son dissenting on the ground that
the conviction should have been re-
versed because of remarks which
States Attorney Jess Hunter made
in his closing argument to the jury.
The majority, however, held that
the remarks were in order and up
held the conviction.
Irwin is one Of four young Ne
groes charged with attacking a
young white housewife back in the
Summer of 1919. Ernest Thomas,
one of the four, was slain by a
deputized mob. The other three
were convicted, with Charles
Greenlee, then Is years old, re-
ceiving a life sentence, and Irwin
and Sammy Shepherds being SEN
fenced to death.
On appeal to the U. S. Supreme
Court, new trial was ordered for
Irwin and Shepherd in 1861. En-
route to the second trial, Sheppard
was killed by Sheriff Willis Nc
Call of Lake County, Fla, in whose
custody he and irwin were. Irwin
also was shot by the sheriff and
seriously injured.
The petition for rehearing,
filed by NAACP attorneys Paul
Perkins of Florida, and Thurgood
Marshall and Jack Greenberg of
New York, also asks for a stay of
execution in case rehearing is
denied. The stay will permit the
attorneys to petition the U. S.
Supreme Court for a review of the
case should the Florida court dis
miss the motion for a rehearing.

sounder risks than those in other

"The truth of the matter is"
Mr.. Hudgins said, chat when you
consider each case on it's merits,
you will find that there are good

The schools are Field School and
Benton. Together they had an

And allowing them to run from

How can you train your children
right
When mother and father are wrong
The small on the streets all day
And the larger ones on the County

Why not obey the program of God
And train your children up right
Sin has got the world stirred up
And in such a hell of a fight.
Mothers are full of home brew
today
Fathers are full of DEVILS gin
Children full of hell everywhere
And deacons hollering Holy Amen.

Wherever you way begins

Stop raising hell all the week
Go to church on Sunday to holler
Amen.

The imitators that are hollering

Sorry it's both women and men.

The Bible says the world loves its
And these ones are doomed to hell.
Do not be mule everyday
And on Sunday try to be horse
That is why the world is in a hell
of fix
And your souls are going to be lost.
Ii you fail to train your children
Then expect Heaven to be your
home
Training your children is the will
of God
When you fail to train, Are you

He fell dead and they buried him
And his wife also lost her life.
