SUf’AEM'E COURT HEWS TO LINE The deeiaion of tlic Stall- Siipreim Court, the effect of which is to ifiant Wil* berl Johnson and Charles Primus, Jr., ; new trial in the charge of rape again.-'l a white woman. Is one which may be ap plauded as in the interest of justice. Thi Supreme Court airested the judgment of the Wake County Court on the ground of a defective indictment. Tills moans that the whole trial procedure must be gone through the second time from the very be ginning, as there must b‘* a .•iecond pre sentation of evidence to tlv grand juiy before a proper indictmL-ni in the ca.se can exist. In capital cases particularly every pro caution should be taken to guarantee tlial no injustice is visited against the accu.sed ; and more especially should the.se precau tions operate when a Negro i.'i under ac cusation of raj e of a white woman. Tlo defendants in such case.s have everything against them at best. No defense is offered here for rapist.s: it is unquestionable that rape i.'i one of tin- most heinous and least defensible crinu>> in the catalogue. But ju.sl because it i.s and because of the deep-routed attitude-^ of long standing which .surround any iu- ter-racial alleged manifestations of sex. every Negro aceu.sed of such a c r i m * should have the benefit of all legal .-lafi*- guurds uguin.st miscarriages of justice. For some years Nort h Carolina has bcei- moving toward a more rational attitude in such cases. Lynching has been practically eliminated. The Supreme Court i.s to be congratulated on seeing to it that in thi.v particular ca :c the accu.sed arc to In- granted the protection to which they an- entitled under the rnle.s o legal procedure.

Speaker Sam Rayburn got a little off side when he said in a recent Democrat “harmony meeting": “We must remembe that any Democrat is to be preferred to a Republican — even a 10 per cent Dem ocrat." The Democratic Party i.s on the way out of power whenever such a doctrine is accepted. The real definition of a Dem ocrat is: One who supports the platform of the party and backs up. at least in e." Sentials, the leadership of the party head.-). A ten per cent Democrat does thi.s only ten per cent of the way. That obviou.sly means he is 90 per cent .something other than Democrat. And 90 is a lot of per cent. One of the real weaknesses of the Dem ocratic Party is that a large propurtiori of its nominal membership in Congress from the South is hardly more Democratic than Senator Taft, insofar as sub.scribing to the fundamental and basic principle.s of the parly is concerned. Very many of them are “Democrats" ony in the .sen.'*e that the word ‘democrat’ is traditionally synonymous with the word ‘southern’ in the southern section of the country. Very many of these Congressmen an Democrats in the sense of being again«i William Tecumseh Sherman; but they are not for the policies of Roosevelt or Tj*u* man or other party tenders. They are anti labor, anti-free suffrage, anti-social secur ity, anti-living wage, anli-minorty group — in short, anti-everything fundamental ly associated with their patry except their own office-holding under its name. Speaker Rayburn may be kidding him self and tliG titular southern Democrats, but to everi'one else his pronouncement is just so much hooey. Of course the Re publicans don't mind hearing that kind of thing fivm the Democratic speaker ot WE’LI, WAII Ihr I'hangr of po.-^ition by ihe Dangli- t.ers of Mu- .\mcrican Kevoliition in per mitting the Tvi.-'kogei- Choir’s appearaiii-'- in Constitution Mall for tin* Negi'o Col lege Fund may be only for this .special occa.sion, so it is too early for hurrah.^.

A TRAGEDY OF NEGLIGENCE The terrible death by suffocalum of four inmates of the Scotland Neck jail serves to re-emphasize a type of danger ous and criminal negligence which recurs from time to lime.

It was a grisly warn ing against the always inexcusable prac- tice of locking up people and leaving them locked in an unattended building. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred Jio harm will result; but it should always be remembered that an emergency may oc cur— an unfore.seen situation; then those locked in are helpless to save themselves. Not so long ago some children perish ed in a fire when the niolher left then' locked in while she went on a short er rand. It can happen in hpmes as well as in jails. But the practice of leaving pns- onei's locked in and unattended is fairly common. It should not unde r any cii cumstances be permitted. Men whose of fensc was trivial paid the death penalty in Scotland Neck in a form more horrible than if they had been murderers of rap ist,-,. No place into which human liemgs mo be locked is absolutely proof against the hazard of fire or other emergencie.s. .Mer wiio are locked up by law are due to the full protection from all hazarads froni which they by the nature of the circiinv stances cannot protect themselves. T h e di-saster at Scotland Neck .should be a vivid reminder of the responsibility as sumed by those who put anyone under lock and key at any time and at am- place.

RKOISTRATION (TH AND IITH DATKS, MAY UNINVlTCn N^gro individuals Olid groups in New Yolk Citv seem especially addicted to organizing mos.. rnevlings. launching movements and promoting rallies. There seem to be always at least tw/ elements in those activities. One is a slogan, and the other is a fee, or admtssion charge, or sonic Ollier mon-laiy con.sidcraiion by which the ran^k and file may be permitted to contribute to the good work. It no issue presents itself in the im mediate neighboihood, the leaders can usually find some good project somewhere else. Then* is always the South, where something is usually cooking to which the pron^olers can hitch onto, and for which or about which a "mammoth mass meeting can be called in Madison Square Garden or one of the Harlem casinos. Admission charge, of course. The usual pattern was being followed recently when a New York group launched a movemmt to aid the CIO in organizing the South. The* has developed an embarrassing situation, i* seems that tne CIO had not asked any assistance form Harlem, and the director of the CIO organ izing campaign has made it clear that the un solicited assistance is unwelcome. It is unfortunate that the "Help Organize the South” group did not find out whether or not its aid was wanted before all the publicity about its plans was aired. If the New Yorkers were not so publicity conscious they would not make uch egregious errors. Anyone who crashes a party runs the risk ol being made to look silly. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON», »-■ M. W.
