Hotel Bars “Black Birds” NEW YORK, November 7—(CNA) —The greater portion of the “New Black Birds” was subjected to the most, abject humiliation by the management of the Park Central Hotel at 54th Street and 7th Ave nue, a few days ago, when a troupe of the players attempted to reach the studio of a photographer who had been contracted to make pictures of the group. A stiff verbal battle ensued be tween meifiber of the cast and the manager of the hotel when the man ager threatened to evict the group! bodily from the lobby of the hotel. Altho the actors threatened to bring suits against the hotel for violating the equality statue most of them were cowed down by their manager into using the freight elevator. In spite of the efforts of Lew Leslie, the manager of the show and his brother, news of the incident leaked out. French Paper Reveal Slave Traffic PARIS, France, November 7—(CN A)—“Price of Women in South Africa Down 60 Percent,” is the headlines in a French African paper, the “Tunisien” quoted in a recent number of “LaDefense,” organ of the International Labor Defense of j France. The quoted article proves the con tention of the French ILD., that French Imperialism has in no way put an end to slavery, but rather put it on a more cruel and business like basis. The aricle is carried by the “Tunsien” as an ordinary item of business news. At this moment a woman of super ior quality, which is to say young, healthy, unmarried and beautiful ac cording to local taste, is worth just a little over 1,000 francs A woman of j medium quality costs'350 francs, and: it is feared that heavy offering on the market will lower the price still further.” i Dine ? -AND !

I LYNCHERS OF HAWAIIAN NATIVE PLAN DIVORCE Lynchers of Hawaiian Nat ive Plan Divorce — NEW YORK, November 7—(CNS) —Tragedy that overtook Mrs. Thalia Fortescue Masse in Hawaii, where she was the victim of a bruttal at tack that shocked the nation, has wrecked her marriage to Thomas H. Massie, LSN.” is the N. Y. American of October 14th, describes the rum ors of imminent divorce between the two white blue bloods, who engineer ed and carried out the lynching of Joseph Kahahawaii, native worker of Honolulu back in 1931. Mrs. Massie, who had “peculiar tendencies,” did not enjoy the social functions indulged in by her hus band, the Lieutenant, but preferred to wander off alone, by the sea in the woods, where she could presum ably commune with her thoughts. On one of these occasions, she strolled off alone into the night from a Hon olul night club, and on returning home in the early morning announced that she had been raped by five natives. Lieutenant Massie, USN., his mother-in-law, Mrs. Granville Forestque, society leader, and two officers of the Navy, (sworn to up hold law and order), engineered a diabolical plot, and in cold blood murdered Kahhawaii, a native work , er, who they claimed was the ring leader of the “attack” on Mrs. Mas sie. The four white aristrocrats who had lynched Kahahawaii were de fended by the famous lawyer Clar ence Darrow, chief of the legal staff of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. They were “convicted” as they never even denied th bestial crime, but sentence was commuted after they served one hour. Darrow did every thing possible to uphold the tradi 1 tions of the Southern ruling class by | attempting to have a jury with no dark-skinned people on it. By rush ing to the defense of the four mem bers of the white artistocracy in I their cry or “rape” not only Mr. ! Darrow but the NAACP. came out j openly in support of lily white jur ies, and in defense of lynch law. The Massie case, because of its sensational nature was exploited in the pre.ss all over the world. When letters demanding court martial of Lieutenant Massie, and Navy officers I Lcrd and Jones, were sent to Presi dent Hoover and Secretary of the Navy Adams Mr. Adams replied that he “deprecated further agitation of the case.” Hawaii is an important naval base. MIDWIVES INCREASE IN NUM BERS AND GAIN ON DOCTORS - ; Tag—Midwives Increase in Numbers WASHINGTON November 8—The depression is given as the reason for a great many decreases and changes in business methods. From North Carolina comes the report that with an increasing number of Tar Hotel mothers being delivered by midwives owing to the depression the State Board of Health through the Division of Maternity and Infancy is waging an intensive campaign to instruct practitioners of midwifery. “We’ve gor six nurses in the field undertaking to better the character of midwife work” said Dr. Cooper yesterday “and they are producing good results.” They are holding classes in various counties and are issuing through the county health department letters of registration to properly equipped midwives. The number of mothers delivered by midwives in 1932 increased by 33 per cent over the 1931 number. “The piace to start reducing the infant and maternal death rates is at the beginning” said Dr. Cooper. “We hold midwifery is a necessary evil and therefore improvement of their service is the logical thing to do.” There are about 5000 midwives in North Carolina nearly twice the number of physicians. Most of their | practice is among the poorer classes of people. Last year 26039 mothers were de livered by midwives 51840 by physi cians. Deliveries were made as fol lows by physicians: white 45,40; Ne gro 6082; Indian 219. In 1931 physi-' cians delivered: white 44898; Negro j 7225; Indian 246. Midwives in 1932 delivered: white: 8121; Negro 17514; Indian 400. In the previous year the figures were: white 6908; Negro 15993; Indian 333. “The increase in deliveries by mid-: wives is evidently an effect of the depression” observed Dr. Cooper. In 1930 the Bureau of the Census re ports that there were 164 Negro physicians and 356 Negro trained nurses in North Carolina. I. L. D.

NEGRO GETS FIVE YEARS FOR FIGHTING LYNCH MOB POPULAR BLUFF, Mo. Novem ber 8—(CNA)—In this small South ern town, as in most Southern towns, it’s hard to tell the difference be tween the sheriff’s posses and a lynch mob. In most cases they are the same. So James Turner, Negro citizen and man about town ran like hell when pursued by a mob of“ an gry” citizens dowm Main Street the other day and when his feet began to fail him and the mob was aPout to overtake him he fired a shot in the air from a delapidated old Indian pistol, hoping to frighten the mob. 3eheld, the sheriff was leading the mob. Altho Turner was guilty of nothing he was given five years in jail for firing at a police officer. !FRANK SPENCER ALLEGED i LYNCHING WITNESS SOUGHT bY MARYLAND AUTHORITIES BALTIMORE, November 7— (CN S)—In its very full and graphic ac count of the lynching of George Armwood at Princess Anne last week the Baltimore Afro-American pub lished a story of an eye witness.

November 9_The Farmers National Committee for Action today sent a strong pro test to Sheriff Bob Slay of Cham bers County Alabama protesting a gainst the jailing of Negro farmers and farm workers and demanding that the attempts to whip up lynch spirit against the Negroes be stop ped at once.

Schroeter Hundreds of Negroes and whites crowded to capacity the Dreamland Hall, Tuesday, to hear all about the Scottsboro case. Mother Patterson told of her boy looking for work, before his arrest and then his life in prison, and the attempts to railroad him with the other Scottsboro boys to death. Richard Moore, Negro speaker, touring for the ILD. was the prin ciple speaker of the evening. Hei gave a clear detail account of the! history of the Scottsboro case. A i number of lawyers failed to defend 1 the nine Negro boys. The Internat ional Labor Defense gets the case and begins to organize mass struggles to free the boys. The lynch verdict of the Scottsboro boys is possible because of the white boss class rule in the south. He points out that not until this rule of the white landlords and capitalists is smashed can the Negroes be free. The same rulers of the Negro work ers are the rulers of the white work ers too. So it is necessary that the Negro and white together must smash this lynch terror. Helen DeMark, district organizer of the International Labor Defense, was chairman of the meeting and made a stirring appeal for members. Reception speeches were made in support of the Scottsboro boys by D. Bliecher of the Friends of Soviet Union and by Carl Rode of the Com munist Party. , C. C. Gallofay of tie Omaha Guide gave an account of the Ritz Theatre stink bomb affair as an apparent ef fort of discrimination against Ne groes in joining trade unions. A resolution was adopted demand ing the immediate release of the Scottsboro boys. Lester Carter, one of the main de fense witnesses was scheduled to speak. However he was conspicuous by his absence. He was unable to stand the strain of the tour, fell sick in Kansas City, and was sent to New York City. The tour of Moore and Patterson continues to Sioux City, Waterloo, Iowa and DesMonies Iowa where it will «nd. The local branch of the ILD. will consolidate the gains made by this sucessful mass meeting. It will pre pare to carry on an intense cam paign here in Omaha, to free the boys, who are now facing another trial on November 27th in Decatur, Alabama.
