FIELD WORKER
FREED

BROWNSVILLE, T e n n. =
NAACP Attorneys Robert L.
Carter and H. T. Lockard
made history here last week
when they won dismissal of a
breach of peace citation again
st an NAACP field secretary
on duty in the Haywood and
Fayette County area.
Messrs. Carter and LOckard
were the first Negro attorneys
to argue a case in the rural
court house.
Circuit court Judge John F.
Kizer threw out the breach of
peace citation against Phillip
H. Savage on grounds that
there was insufficient evil
dence.
One white witness testified
that he filed complaint OF
breach of the peace because
Savage was questioning Ne
groes, lined up to register, in
the court house hallway.
The witness said he was
playing checkers in special
checkers-room maintained in
the court house for citizens of
Brownsville. He said Savage's
questions disturbed his trend
of thought, thereby giving him
trouble in his checker game.
Enraged, ne called the law.
Mr.. Lockard, in cross exam
ination, asked the witness if
Negroes were allowed to play
checkers in the court houses
checkers-room. The answer
was mo-"
Savage was arrested and
held overnight January rs and
fined $50 the following day
and accused of interfering
with voter registration, and
disturbing the peace.

and threatened him with their
guns and beat on him. He left
town and wasn't available for
the trial. The same night, CheS-
sic Yourgie was sitting in his
home when bullets whizzed
past him-men in cars shot att
his house as a warning not to
testify.
Almost every witness had
left town or wouldn't testify
because they were afraid for
their lives. Varsie Dixon, his
cousin, was the only one-he
had been held for four months
in Jail as a material witness.
Soon it was Garsie's time tOl
testify. Just before the trial
the Sheriff had warned viii
liams, Don't tell the story like
it heppened-tell it like the
people want it to be told."|
Now, Garsie Williams, sweat
pouring down his forehead,
scared, and being cursed at byI
an unruly courtroom, starts tOI
tell his side of the story.
''Liar, killer, niger. ..etc, u
fills the courtroom. The jury
doesn't even pay attention.
They look at their shoes, uni
concernedly scratch their arms
and legs and talk to one anoth-l
er or just sit staring off into
space.
In a little while the jury del
liberates, the courtroom waits
tenseIy-the first time it had
been so quiet-yOu could hear
a pin drop. And then the jur-
OrS took their seats and the
foreman stood up. and read
the verdict.

Brotherhood In
Action Endorsed

NEW YORK = The NAACP
church departments campaign
to enlist religious groups in the
fight against job bias was en-
dorsed this week by a number
of prominent church leaders.
According to the Rev. E. j..
OdOm, NAACP church secre-
tary, the project, entitled
brotherhood in Action" will
involve "inter-racial and in
terfaith teams of churchmen in
an offensive against current
practices in the hiring and up
grading of Negro personnel"
Clergymen endorsing the
campaign include DR.. Gardner
c. Taylor, president of New
York City's Protestant Council.
"The NAACP," he said, "is
giving dramatic, indispensable
leadership in actualizing the
Christian doctrine of brother
hood. This effort merits our
total support"
DR.. Taylor was joined in his
endorsement of the project by
Bishop George w. Baber, of
the AME Church's First Epis-
copal District.
Bishop Baber declared:
"Churchmen throughout the
country should rally to this NJ
AACP effort to improve job
opportunity"
Also commenting were Bish-
op Stephen Gill Spottswood, of
the AME Zion Church's
Fourth Episcopal District and
vice-chairman of the NAACP
Board of Directors; DR.. Ben
jamin E. Mays, president of
Morehouse College and MEM
Der of the NAACP Board of
Directors.
Also Rev. John LaFarge, as
sOciate editor of AMERICA
and chaplain, Catholic Inter-
racial Council of New York;
and Bishop w. ]. Walls, of the
First Episcopal District, AME
Zion Church and a member of

Garsie's plea is not guilty
and self-defense. He faced a
jury of twelve men ALI white
all farmers, but one-a con-
struction worker. His lawyers
had spent eight hours qualify
ing the jurors 1.-TWO wore hours
than it took the entire triaD i.
His attorneys disqualified five
men but when it became ap-
parent that this disqualifying
would be an endless job, they
accepted the rest of the jurors.
Most of the jurors were taken
off because they were in favor
of capital punishment.
Then, the witnesses started
testifying. There was Les
Dickenson's brother : in law
who was not only a bootleg
ger but also an ex-convict. He
sWore it was cold-blooded
murder. Lille Mae testified
she said that Garsie hit her
for no good reason then shot
her white boyfriend. Other
witnesses testified, were cross
examined and then came the
time for defense witnesses to
testify and no witnesses
showed up.
The night before, L. l..
Franklin, a colored witness,
was forced by the white COM
munity through threats and vi
olence not to testify. The man
he worked for was a close
friend of Les Dickinson.
Franklin conveniently vanish
ed before the trial.
The eve of the trial, two
carloads of armed men stopped
