Abinm Simpson .was the efficient president of Allen Unversi'ty, the o local A. M. E. College. This position he resigned and he has left tlie State. lie goes to Florida where; he will continue educational work as Acting-President of Bethune-Cookman College, the famous educational institution found . id and presided over by Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethunt', Daytona Beach, $Fla.. who now has'charge of the Negro work of the NYA. Colored South Carolinians, irrespective of denom."nations, but interested in the educational advancement of the race, will regret the departure, of President Simpson. The colored colleges of t'he State 'all have wide-awake and efficient presidents but it is safe to say that for the past five years none had a man who meant more to the educational welfare of the race. In the departure of Pres:dent Simpson South Carolina loses, Florida gains SCOTTSBORO CASES .ENDED. At last. Alabama has ended these infamous cases. No longer will the angels in heaven have to weep and fair fair minded and just men blush over man's inhumanity to man. Up to now, no darker blot on the so-called^'administration of ed in any State in America. And after allj insofar as Alabama 's concerned, what has been proven? Nothing save that race prejudice, meanness ana ignorance are costly things. Trying to convict these innocent colored boys of a most henious en me merely on the word of a scarlet white woman has caused- that Stat/1 to spend between oO and 75 thousand dollars. Though -ended ovientl.v by compromise the result is as messy as mess can be. Nine boys were at first tried, convicted and sentenc-. ed to death. Appeale to the U.S Supreme Court, the convict'ons were set aside. Alabama then tried el; over again and without going into all the moves and counter moves, here is the result: Heywood Patterson convicted and sen-, . tenced to 75- years, Clarence Norn's convicted and given the electric chair, Andy Wright convicted and sentenced to 99 years, Charles Wpnma -?'l -1 1 ' .. w...v?u mill seilienceu 10 76 years. Ozie Powell whom offi cers tr ed" to kill last year by shooting him, alleging that he .deliberately tried to cut one though handcuffed, was allowed to plead guilty to assault with intent to murder. For that he was given 20 years. The other 4 boys were amply let loose, the charge against them being dismissed. What a crazy quilt! If the convicted boys were really guilty, why such differences in the sentences? And All by the same IMMiiMHiiaiiiia judge too! So far as Alabama's at rotten, courts are concerned the it cases are ended, but there certain- gc ly is work for Governor Bibb ec GVaves. He should not let much th time pass before exercisisg exe- fij eutivc clemency.? The Governor gt knows as the whole world knows, fcj that justice has not been served, st instead it has been cruelly man- g, handled. But, after all, those ai boys (in particular, should praise God for the U. S. Supreme Court. st And by no means forget Atty. Samuel Leibowitz. 6t ??~ .1 in ^MOUNTAIN ClTYi : ECHOES || I \ By "CAP JIM" I T. ~1 I l* II was UUI jjifusiuc avtcn ? the Enorce S.S. and BYPU Convention during Friday's* session. 'r The attendance was fair?so was a that part of the prgoram that we heard. The finance was sent in a in a more I beral way than here- P tofore. The session was held at fi Tabernacle church. The paStor, s< -who is also president of the Con- p vention and his t'.oyal flock enter- d tained nicely. "* I7 The Reedy River Convention n held *ts session down at New-] o Shady Oak church. This Conven-jo - ti.m ni'i'nis to have the edge mi 11 others of this section in attend-jtl ance and raising money. One out- J V standing thing is the young folk a seem to be more interested; some-jo how they managed to keep thi' L convent, on within the hands of p the whole delegation. Now it' seems that these conventions that si are being held all over the Pied- t< mont section have no definite goal S The finance which is sent up in r a large way does not go for the tl cause of k'ngdom building?unless T y?-u consider the pockets of the tl oflicers the boards, the commit- ? < tees and the preachers that fill P space at certain hours as per the fi j program-. "The kingdom" a meas ley donation is usually made to h I the two schools of the State. Then \\ j to keep up an excuse for the meet v\ ings to come off each year?and . for the monies to be sent up, the () frazzle end of what is left, aftei ^ the important terns as mentioned! here have been duty taken care of 3 js divided among the several de-1 f] serving young people that are off t, in school fighting hard to obtain r an education?and often what I ir they get s truly just a crumb, j We have often wondered why it't>] , is that there cannot be found in I the' churches, the Sunday schools, Cl the BYPU's. those who have, e- n llOUtrh love f.?r ftip Pin-lot p ? - ^ ~ ? v..v. viiuov tau^f j who are willing to attend and act in these bodies without pay.M Every person that serves at all.'n aside from read'ng a paper and V warming a seat, must be cpnsid- s] ered by the appropriation commit- k .tee, and we have heard of some'n that cussed out the committee for a not digging deeper t'nto the pile lc when it reached their name. Think'y of it, a Christian organization as- li sembled?for the stile purpose of advancing the cause of Christ and yet nearly all of the pijsh must be paid fui any service tendered, w?r "n thy or unworthy. No wonder the a: choir nearly choked, down when t -tr tried to sing "I'll go whtre?ytnr fl want me to go dear Lord; O'er S mountain or plain or sea; I'll say si what you Want me to say, dear ti L-ord; IMf he what you want me ?< to be." Only people filled with w the love of the cause?only peo- j< pie who forget compensation for self, can really sing that song. I Those who are eagerly wait ng to j hear -thmrport oflhe "pay" com - j I mittee, just can't tune in on it. J God hasten the day when all Chris j< tian organizatons may get a dif- g I ferent viewpoint. fi I Plonsnilt- Viuur . I rwrlct*m WTO ? * * . .. !U " V. U ' Graycourt, S.
