He fled to New York from
his home in Lake City, SC,
to escape further Dixie enmity.
New York friends knowing
Southern prejudices and in
justices joined the pastor in
his appeal to New York Gov
ernor Averill Hartman to pre-
vent his extradition to South
Carolina.
The National Council of
Churches also urged Gov. Har-
rinan to consider the pos
sible risk to his life" If De-
laine were sent back.
Fears that the fugitive pas
tor could not receive a fair
trial that justice would not
prevail and that he would
face the danger of being
lynched, and the certain vic
tim of the lynch mob, these
considerations rallied strength
to New York support of fair

Ladder PrOues Fairbunksu1ls Superstiti0us

Are Fairbanksans supersitious? Very few will admit it if you ask.
 Many Fairbanksans were called upon to pass the test recently as they strolled down the South side of Second avenue between Lacey and Cushman Most of them stopped suddenly, look of utter constern- ation crossing their faces. Some crossed the North side. others just stood and looked puzzled.
 Two innocent looking workmen were giving the Burns Hotel fresh new coat of paint. Situated on two huge ladders, they were undoubted- ly enjoying the mental anguish they were causing the passers by.
 It was the same old problem: Do Haunt superstition and deliberately walk under the ladder. or avoid any possible trouble and sneak around?" A lot of people who told us they weren't superstitious took the easy way out But no matter their choice, those two ladders will probably take the blame for a majority of Fairbanksan's troubles for the next three weeks.
