DOIT LET THE SIN
Chain Gang To
Be Revived
Austin, Tex., July 17, (CNA)—The
chain gang, in all its brutality, is to
be revived in the capital of Texas.
Hundreds of Negro and whte workers
accused of “vagTancy” wll be dragged
from their shacks to build roads in
the hot sun. According to county
officials the chain gang is being re
established to “preyent people going
to jail to be fed.” One wonders if
the chain gang prisoners are to be
worked without food.
During the recent flood, county
prisoners were used to clear away
accumulated debris. This gave County
Judge George S. ^Mathews an idea.
Why not use “vagrants” to build the
roads, especially since Travis County
is due to receive a large share of the
Federal highway grant to Texas. Nat
urally, free labor means more cash
in official pockets. Judge Mathews
served 18 years as county sheriff;
during that time he had charge of the
county chain gang.
The chain gang measure is spon
sored by Commissioner John E. Shel
ton, a large landowner *who will
benefit from chain gang labor. His
brother, Emmett Shelton, was a
member of the former county relief,
board, forced to resign through mais
dissatisfaction of the workers. An-1
other brother, Harold Shelton, at-1
tempted several years ago to organize
the unemployed of Austin into a
Fascist group.
If the landowners and politicians
of Travis County succeed in establish
ing a chain gang it will set a prece
dent for the whole state. More
over, this will depress wages and em
ployment to even greater depths.
Workers’ organizations are uiy*>d to
send protests to County Judge
George S. Mathews, Court House,
Austin, Texas, demanding that this
measure be dropped.
Victim of March Police
Terror Dies
New York, |July 17, (CNA)—An
other victim of police brutality dur
ing the March 19 outbreak is dead.
He was Thomas Wilstrom, a mu
scian, of 16 East 127th street- He
died in Bellevue this week of injuries
suffered at the hands of the police.
At the height of the outbreak, Wil
strom yas clubbed so brutally that
he suffered a fractured skull. He
was taken to Bellevue by friends—
friends that he was never able to
thank, for he never fully regained
consciousnes.
According to the medical report,
Wilstrom hovered between life and
death, in a semi-coma, from March
19 until June 24.

Anti-Negro Drive
Opened By
American Fascists
New York, July 17, (By Loren Mil
ler for ANP)—Apparently determ
ined to bolr ter up its cause by appeal
to existing racial prejudice, a group
of American Fascists, with head
quarters in New Yark, has coupled
its anti-Semitic campaign with a vi
rcious attack on Negroes and an open
call to whites to "claim America for
the white man.”
The organ of this group, the Amer
ican Bulletin, is openly sympathetic
with Hitler and its masthead carries
the Nazi swastika. Jts slogan is
“America for the Americans” and it
boasts that it presents “the white
man’s viewpoint.”
The June 24 isue of the paper
minces no words in an attack on Ne
groes and Jews. “We see absolute
ly no reason why the white man’s
labors should be utilized continually
for the plrpose of sustaining Jews
and Negroes,” one of the editorials
reads. “There can be no equality
where different races—live side by
side,” reads another paragraph.
Acute observers here see in this
campaign the opening guns in a drive
that may reach wide proportions un
less vigorous steps are taken to
check it. They point out that al
though attacks on Jews are popular
attacks on Negroes in America will
reach an even wider audience.

America’s long record of violence
where Negroes are concerned and
the ease with which politicians have

they are looking for in an effort to

Another danger sign ite the fact
that ther is already an extensive
anti-Negro li erature which the Fas

i which set out to prove that Negroes
areinferior and that America is a

campaign the Anti-Nazi Federation,

making an effort to acquaint Ne

plans to build up organizational
means to combat it.

Admin. Asked Oppose
Italian Aggression
New York, July 17.—President
Roosevelt and Secretary of State Cor
dell Hull were asked today by the
Na'ional Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People to
voice publicly their disapproval of
the Italian government’s action in
Ethiopia and thus place the United
States government squarely on record
against this territorial encroach
ment.
Telegrams to that effect were sent
to both officials in accordance with
resolutions voted last Friday at the
26 h Annual Conference of the N. A
A. C. P. in Stv Louis. Officers of the
Association cite the State Depart
ment’s action on Japanese aggression
in Manchuria as a precedent for op
posing similar encroachment by Italy
in Ethiopia.

Apartment Tenants
Threaten Rent Stike
Chcago, 111., July 17, (CNA)—
“ThiL is business, not philanthropy,”
was the surprising answer given to a
group of tenants of the Rosenwald
Model Apar ments in the South Side
of Chicago, when they protested the
withdrawal of free gac. privileges en
joyed in the house until recently.
This statement was made by Al
fred K. Stern, white, son-in-law- of
the founder of the Rosenw-ald apart
ments and Roosevelt appointee of the
Housing Commission.
Unless they are granted the return
of the gas privileges, tenants of the
apartmen house built by “charity”
threaten to go out on a rent strike.
O'-er 300 are organized, with Marcus
H. Ray as president.
Figures on the finances of the ven
ture, once hailed as a boon to the
housing problems of the Negro, show
hat over one million dollars of the
tenants’ hard earned funds have been
used to pay off mor gages on the
houses and thus have slipped into the
coffers of the Rosenwald family,

Haile Selassie’s Nephew
Bites Off Tip of
Girl’s Nose
Paris, Franre, July 17. (ANP)—
.Araya Haile Selas. ie, nephew of
Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, faces a
ierm of year in jail after having
been convicted in a French court of
biting off the tip of the nose of Miss
Yamile Gaiati, a young Egyptian
demoi -elle who is reported to have
spumed his attentions.
Selassie was convicted and sent

According to the story told in the
court at Chambery where many
American doughboys took their fur
loughs dhring the World war, dis

at Geneva, Switzerland, fell in love
with tho beautifll Egyptian girl.
But, for some indiscretion, Selassie
was expelled from Switzerland.
He sought to persuade the languor

The extent to which this particular
group of Fascists has been able to
get a following is difficult to esti
mate. The paper has been pub
lished for the past three months and
it has missed no opportunity to car
ry on its propaganda since tha, time.
Negroes are attacked constantly
tide by side with Jews. Every de
mand of Negroes for better condi
tions is twisted to make it appear
that Negroes are seeking better con
ditions at the expen.« of the whites,
An odd feature of other Fascist
groups has been the consistent effort
to set Jews and Negroes to hatting
each other.
“Notji.fig could be more dangerous
than for these two minority groups
to fall into the error of fighting each
other,” Miss Croll believes- “Both
are des lined to be victimi: of Fascist
attacks and inter-group warfare will

to oppress both Negroes and Jows.
