NEW TRIAL FOR McGEE
NEW YORK. N. Y_The Sup
reme Court of Missippi yester
day ordered a new trial for Wil
lie McGee. 30 year old Negro of
Laurel, Miss, who was under a
death sentence for alleged rape
of a woman. The unanimous
decision of the Supreme Court
followed an appeal by the Civil
Rights Congress through its at
torneys headed by Forrest B.
Jackson of Jackson, Miss. The
Congress hailed the decision as
a great victory and announced it
is making immediate preparations
for the new trial.
In an opinion prepared by Jud
ge Virgil A. Griffith, the' court
held that, because McGee was en
titled to a change of venue at the
time of the original trial, he is
now entitled to a new trial in an
atmosphere and with an opportu
ne that will permit and will not
i paralize the development of the
[ case.
; Original verdict in the case
which would have sent McGee to
the chair on January 7th, was ap
pealed by Javkson on the grounds
that he was hurried to conviction
under pressure of mob and race
hysteria. Public feeling in Laurel
where the crime was alleged to
have been committed and where
IJUKls JMEWLAND A\D
ARTHUR B. McCAW TO
ASSIST THE 0. P. A.
OMAHA, June 19, 1946 A whisp
of a colored girl put her 115 lbs.
against a dam to help stem the
rising tide of inflation.
She is Doris Newland. daughter
of Mrs. Myrtle Collier, 2908 Frank
lin St., who this week returned to
the ranks of the District OPA
office in Omaha after receiving
her Bachelor of Arts degree in
Sociology at Bennett College, in
Greensboro, N. C. where she fin
ished a four-year course in three.
Miss Newland interrupted her
college year in 1943 to serve with
the OPA in controllfng prices and
when allied victory was imminent,
she left to complete her education.
She said she couldn’t resist re
turning to OPA at this critical
time in order to have the opportu
nity to “serve my people in the
fight against rising prices”.
“When inflation hits, if price
control goes, my people wall num
ber among the first victims”.
‘ People with fixed incomes, in
all races, will suffer untold hard
ships if price control is WTecked.
“My studies have made me very
conscious of the social chaos w'hich
would result from another depres
sion. Only by maintaining the eco
nomic security of the nation with
price control can my people, and
other people, continue to share in
the good things of life.”
Miss Newland pointed out that
if people pay no more than top
ceiling prices, they give the little
fellow a chance to get his fair
share of scarce commodities.
Although Miss Newland is a slip
of a girl, her ambition^ are gi
gantic. When OPA’s battle is won
“perhaps in a year”, she plans
to return to college to work for
a Masters’ degree in psychiatric
social work. The determined gleam
in her eyes reflects her hopes for
a doctorate ‘some day’.
Miss Newland is not alone
among her race in the battle
against inflation. Edwin R. Moran
District OPA Director, has announ
ced the appointment of Arthur B.
McCaw, Boys’ Work Secretary of
the Omaha Urban League, as the
racial representative to the Om
aha downtown Community Infor
mation Panel of the Price Control
Board. Since his apointment OPA
investigators have surveyed the
North 24th Street area for viola
UUUS.
McCaw called on all citizens to
cooperate with the government's
battle against inflation by report
ing any overcharges to the local
Board. He said he would gladly
assist any complainants in mak
ing such a report.
the trial was held, was so inflam
ed that McGee’s attorneys were
unable to obtain affidavits in sup
port of the plea for a change of
venue, Jackson charged. Even re
latives of the defendant were too
intimidated to act, he stated.
McGee had been held without
bail in the nearby Hinds County
Jail for 30 days prior to his trial I
! because the Jones County sheriff
had informed the governor that
he was unable to protect the pri
soner, CRC stated in the appeal
brief. Brought to the Jones Coun
ty courthouse in custody of the
State Militia, McGee was at the
time of the trial so incapicitated
by reason of insanity, shock and
fright that he was unable to ad
vise with counsel or to make any
coherant statement toe, them, ac
cording to the appeal.
CRC also argued that, because
of McGee’s condition and the at
mosphere in Laurel, there was no
chance to prepare a defense; that
the circuit court refused to ar
range examination of his sanity
by competent physicians, and that
on the basis of evidence presented
the court erred in not directing
a verdict of not guilty.
In addition to a change of ve
nue, CRC asked a proper inquiry <
into McGee's sanity, delay in the i ■
trial until he recovered from the i
shock, and adequate time to pre- ■
pare a defense. <
The prisoner was entitled to a
change of venue before there was i
any hearing on the question of i
sanity because h ewas entitled to 1
a fair opportunity to procure a i

LINCOLN—Poster-bulletins issued by the Nebraska Commit
tee, U. S. Brewers Foundation, are a subject of discussion here
among three of the speakers at the organization’s eighth annual
convention, held here last week. Pictured left to right are Jackson
B. Chase, chairman of the Nebraska liquor control commission,
District Judge Lyle E. Jackson of Neligh, and Charles E. Sandall,
state director of the Nebraska Committee.
Judge Jackson, who gave the principal address, called the self
gulation program as carried on by Judge Sandall and the Ne
aska Committee “a powerful striking force for public good.”
e declared “the program steers a sound middle course between
e extreme of prohibition on one hand and weak controls on the
f her”.
Helpful suggestions for better tavern operations appear in
bulletins such as the specimens shown on the display. Center
pages are made up in large posters for display in taverns, and
carry messages designed to help retailers maintain orderly and
law-abiding conditions.
New Platters by Count Basie
NEW YORIC—There's good
news in sight for Cunt Basie fans
with the announcement this week
that two new platters by the Cou- j
fair and impartial jury on the is
sue of sanity as much as he was
to have such a jury on the merits
of the charge, the decision states.
Decision granting the new trial
tvill be final June 25th, with the
prosecution having the right to
appeal in the meantime. The case
will be retried in the next term
af the Jones County Circuit Cou
rt, which begins October 7th.
Charged with rape of a white
tvoman whose only identification
af her assailant was that he had
kinky hair and wore a sweatshirt
McGee was convicted, according t°
Z:RC officials, on the basis of# an
inbelievable tale of rape with ‘out
waking a child in the same bed.

jiven a brief sanity trial at which
>nly laymen testified and senten
;ed on the same day to death in
;he electric chair. Appeal of the
rerdict brought an automatic stay

Full resources of the Civil rights
■ongress will be mobilized for the
lefense of McGee.

it will be released during the nexl
month.
The first new Basie Platter,
slated for release June 17, paired
Lazy Lady Blues’ and ‘High Tide’
two diversified selections that
show off the incomparable Basie
rhythms to excellent advantage.
‘Lazy Lady Blues’ was penned by
Leonard Feather, the noted jazz
critic and composer, and serves as
an ideal vehicle for the voice of
Jimmy Rushing. The flipover, of
‘High Tide’, is a unique Basie or
iginal which the Count has been
highlighting in his current stage
presentation at the Roxy Theatre
featuring the ensemble playing of
trumpet, clarinet and tenor sax in
the opening and closing choruses.
The Count’s long-awaited wax
ing of Irving Berlin's 'Blue Skies'
which also features Jimmy (Mr.
Blues) Rushing, will be released
early in July with ‘Avenue C’ as
its plattermate.
Basie will hold over for a fourth
week on the Roxy stage through
June 21, his fast moving show
having won the plaudits o ferities
and the public alike.
Upon concluding at the Roxy,
the Count will embark upon a
month of one niters and then re
turn to Manhattan July 25 to
open a four week stand at the
Aquarium Cafe on Broadway in
his first local nitery appearance
in more than a year and a half.
