its attorneys, in turn sought to
show that even if there had been
threats the state could not show
definitely that they had been made
by members of the Tuskegee Civic
Association.
TEA is made up of several hun
dred Negroes, including a number
prominent at Tuskegee Institute,
the famous Negro college, and en-
ployees Of large veterans hos
pital located in the county.
Testimony of both sides was
taken under advisement by Judge
Walton who asked for written
briefs, from the state within 80
days, from the Negro attorneys
within another 80 days.
Major Damage Possible
The significance of the hearing
is to be found in the question
whether, if the state wins its case,
it will have a suitable, and effic-
lent, weapon to use against any
Negro economic pressure on whites.
The boycott, really begun in Mont
gomery with the widely publicized
bus base, has not been tested thus
in TIE courts up to now. An old
Alabama law forbids organized
boycotts.
Negroes, who make up a large
proportion of many Alabama coun-
ties, and in population dominate
many especially in the Black Belt,
under astute leadership which is
now available, could effect consid-
cradle damage, especially if the
effort were concentrated as it was
in Tuskegee, according to all evil
dence available to the public. That
there was boycott, attributable to
TEA or not, is clear. Whether TEA

|Mississippi's First Electric Heating Fair
Set For State Feb. 1915 at Jackson

An Electric Heating Fair-the
first ever to be held in Mississippi
and one of the first in the
Nation-will be put on by Missis-
sippi Power & Light. Company
February Is, IA, and Is at the
jackson State Fair Grounds.
A total of % different kinds of
electric heating equipment will be
displayed by manufacturers, dis
tributors, and dealers.
1t will give the home owner
the building industry-and the
electrical industry the opportunity
to compare electric heating equip
ment first hand under a single
|roof.
MP&L is sponsoring the Fair as
part of National Electrical Week,
February 9 through Is. Numerous
other groups and firms are CO.
operating with MP&L in pro-
noting National Electrical Week
throughout the State to point up
chronological advances in the
electric industry as well as to
point up benefits of electric living.
The Week will be promoted
widely by the electrical industry
through advertising, window BAN
ners, and bumper stickers. Num-
erous talks will be given by rep
resentatives of the electrical in
duStry during the week.
Sponsors of National Electrical
Week include Mississippi Power
Company, Mississippi Power &
Light Company and local branches
of the following national organ
izations: National Association of
Electrical Distributors, Interna-
tional Association of Electrical
Inspectors, National Electrical
Contractors Association, and the
International Brotherhood of Elec-
trical Workers.

the boycott is the issue now be-
fore the court.
The situation in Macon County
thus continues, uncertain insofar
as legal statuses are concerned.
But the overall situation continues
to deteriorate as botk sides show
every intention of fighting for
what they consider to be right.
Aim to Abolish County
Already the Negro population Of
Tuskegee, the community, has been
gerrymandered by legislative act
outside the town limits. Not only
that, another piece of legislation
which also. passed makes it exceed
ingly difficult to incorporate a new
community adjacent to one already
functioning. This would tend to
fend off any effort on the part of
Negroes to set up their own COM
munity government.
But the situation is complicated
still further by other legislative &C.
ton, an amendment to the state
Constitution already passed by
the voters which makes it pos
sible for the Legislature by 1859
to abolish the county outright if it
so elects.
This movement, initiated by
State Senator Sam Engelhardt, is
aimed at carving up Macon Coun-
ty into five, possibly six, sections,
and distributing these segments to
adjacent counties which could ap-
sorb additional Negroes without
raising the Negro population to a
majority in the counties affected.
State representatives and sena-
tors from six counties definitely
affected, and one other which may
be, are to meet at regular intervals
for study of the possibility of
abolishing Macon County in that
manner.
There is some feeling among at
least some of the representatives,
however, that the same objective
could be achieved simply by taking
parts of Macon County away, but
leaving it much smaller. At least
one legislator has voiced anxiety
about the welfare of some of the
county officials and others depend
ent on the maintenance of a gov
ernmental unit in Tuskegee.
The entire action will not be de-
cided soon. Neither the county
dissection nor the boycott injunc-
ton is expected to be settled with
in months. 1t will be at least two
months before Judge Walton makes
his decision as to any Tuskegee
Civic Association completely in a
boycott. The legislators may not
decide the Macon carving matter
for a year or more. Negroes and
whites, meanwhile, seem determin-
ed to fight out all such issues down
to the last technicality, using all
conceivable maneuvers.

B. M. Davis of Mississippi Pow.

The Heating Fair is part of

announced an all-electric rate last
September and is promoting cleo

tor of the council for Christian
social action of the United Church,
said that all five denominations
had adopted strong policy pronoun-
cements denouncing residential seq
regation.
He described the three-city pro-
ject, however, as the first attempt
to put these policies into practice
on the local level.
In announcing the project, DR..
Gibbons pointed out that racial

Controversy Over Police
Mr.. Goddard testified before the
grand jury last Thursday, two days
after a thirteen-year-old girl re-

the basement of the school by a 10
year-old youth. The school is at
Park Place and Rochester Avenue
in Crown Heights. 1t is almost
equally divided between white and
Negro pupils.
At that time, Mr.. Goddard was
reported to have told the jurors
that he would like to have a police
man stationed inside his school. A
patrolman had been on guard out
side at the time of the attack.
There has been a continuing con-
troversy between the grand jury
and the Board of Education over
the jurors demand that policemen
be stationed in the city's schools.
The board has opposed the assign
ments.
