CLEVELAND, O.—(By Chas. H. Loeb for ANP)—In a
cell at Cleveland’s Central police station, a rapidly aging
brown-skinned Negro man engages in silent, but fervent
prayer that Ohio’s Governor John W. Bricker will refuse to
sign extradition papers that will turn him over to Hampton
county. South Carolin* authorities

The plainly frightened Negro
Benjamin Haywood, an ex-soldier,
who until, his arrest by Cleveland
detectives s few days ago, had op-
erated a profitable barbecue stand
in Akron under an assumed name,
tells a story almost unbelievable, of
Dixie justice, a review of which is
expected to persuade the governor
to refuse to send him back to al-
Monday Atty. Gillespie wired the
governor, calling his- attention
to the case, and asking that he re-
fuse to sign extradition papers.
Governor Bricker's reply by tele-
gram Tuesday stated that he would
consider the case whenever it was
called up for hearing before him.
meanwhile his office will make a
thorough investigation of the case.

Haywood's story, told in simple
and truthful manner, is this:
Back in 1925 Haywood lived in
Besufort county. South Carolina. He
was a free-lance contractor of sorts.
A white man named Robinson hired
him to do some repairing on state
roads. He completed one job and
received payment for it. Robinson
gave him another job, but this time
refused to pay him, stating, “the
flest morley is enough for both jobs
fer a n - - - - r". The two men
clashed, with the white man coming

Dear Mr. Wesley:
I have never met you except by
the printed page. But I believe you
are an earnest worker for the in-
terest of the race.
Two days ago, I mailed you a
communication for publication or
information. I believe the time is
near when the color primary bar
will be eliminated, provided race
leaders act intelligently. We canont
force the party leaders to lift the
bar, but we can influence them. We
cannot expect them to life the bar
as long as they fear injurious con-
sequences.

The Declaration enumerates all
the rights which constitute, the race

“To protect these rights, govern-
ments are instituted among men.” :
In his . first inaugural address
(1801) Mr. Jefferson commented on
our isolated country and the bless-
ings enjoyed, and asked, “With all
these blessings, what more is neces-
sary to make us a happy and pros-
perous people?" He answered thus:
“Still one thing more, fellow-citi-
zens,—a wise and frugal govern-
ment, which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which
shall leave them otherwise free to
regulate their own pursuits of in-
the highest possible stage of de-
velopment. He knows this cannot

Other missionary leaders who con-
tributed greatly to the session’s
success were Mrs. Lucy M. Hughes
of Cameron, Texas, president of
the Women’s Home and Foreign
Missionary society, and Dr. L. L.
Berry, secretary of missions. A
featured speaker at one of the
earlier sessions was Bishop David
H. Sims of the first and ninth Epis-
copal districts, who, addressing an
audience that overflowed into the
church entrance, said. "There are
two passages of Scripture which
characterize the objective of a great
dustry and improvement, and shall
not take from the mouth of labor
the bread it has earned. This is the
sum of good government, and this
is necessary to close the circle of
our felicities.”

orful high school games witnessed
at the State Fair, the Booker T.
Washington and the Lincoln High
I Schools teams and pep '‘units cli-
maxed, in a fitting way the activi-
ties of the day. Two fighting teams,
coached by two great young coach-
es, fought every minute' of the game
to give the customers an evening of
good football. On the opening kick-
off the Booker Washington team
brought the spectators to their feet,
when on the kick off, the Washing-
top receiver returned the ball from
his own 18 to the Lincoln 35. From
this opening hair-raiser to the clos-
ing gun, the game was a thriller.
So anxious were the boys to make
tackles that numerous off side pen-
alties were registered against both
sides. When the gun sounded Lin-
coln bid won the first game in the
history of the two schools.
Too much praise can not be given,
to the two pep aggregations of the
two, schools and the fine leadership
“ From Jacitson. The Board of Ed-
ucation certainly respects the abil-
lity of Prof. Jackson, in .giving him
such large responsibilities. Those
who saw the two units perform
Monday night, and excellently done,
must not forget that it is the work
. of ONE man not a dozen.
Hats off to Negro Dallas—for your
orderly conduct, your willingness to
cooperate and follow leadership, for
your loyalty to the two schools, and
for your downright audacity to
make progress in spite of prevail-
ing circumstances . . , Selah!
Then, Robinson relates, he hid
himself in a railroad box car in the
adjoining county of Hampton for
12 hours, and then returned to his
wife and two children at Beaufort.

ing Robinson, came to his home

accomplice in the ortital slaying, of
the sick man, Mrs. Sylvia Williams,
housekeeper for Pickens, told the
jury that she returned from work
Friday, March 38 and found Pick-
ens lying across the bed in a pool
of blood. "I- screamed and called for
help,” stated Mrs. Williams. Mrs.
Williams told of trips that Mayo
made to Pickens' house and dra-
matically related the occasion of
Mayo bringing R. V. Gooden, the
confessed trigger man, to the house
and introducing him to the intend-
ed victim. The state then introduced
in evidence, a deed showing where
Pickens had deeded his home to
Mayo. The deed stated that Mayo
was to see after Pickens until his
death. Six insurance policies, total,
ing $738.50 on the life of Pickens
and made payable' to Mayo, were
introduced in evidence. The state
also proved that Mrs. Mayo paid
the premium an the insurance
weekly. v,
The State called R. V. Gooden to
the stand and the court room was
tense as Gooden' walked erect and
at a fast gait to the witness stand.
Gooden dramatically rehearsed the
killing and the events leading up to
the killing. He turned and looked
the jury in the face and told of
Mayo begging him for more than
six months to get rid of his brother-
in-law for him. "He promised to.
cancel a #50 debt I, owed him, give,
me another $50, a truck and some
more money when he collected the
insurance,” stated Gooden. On di-
rect examination, he added that
Mayo also promised him a home if
he would do the job. Gooden said
that he worked at the Model Laun-
dry with Mayo for some time and
quit the job because Mayo continued
to worry him about killing Pickens.
“I went to Humble and stayed near-
ly two months to get rid of him,”
said Gooden. On cross examination
by Attorney Snell Gooden said
that he did not tell the police about
Mayo trying to get him to kill the
man. He added that he fold his
brother-in-law, Sheperd Goes, and
also told his wife.

being cross examined he half
smiled and half laughed in answer-
ing some of the state’s questions.
Alma Green, a defense witness,
was in for a gruelling cross exami-
nation after she stated on direct
examination that she was in the
garage of the Model Laundry on the
evening of June 23 when Gooden
came in and she stated that she
waved at him and that he did not
hold no converaation with Mayo.
She also said that she went to
: Gooden’s house with Mayo and
heard Gooden threaten to kill
Pickens for breaking his meter. On
cross, examination she said that
Mayo carried her to school to
Hughes Business College after he
got off from work and that she rode
around with him sometimes. On be-
ing asked was she and Mayo sweet-
hearts she said "No, we are just
good friends." She stated that Mayo
came to her house and carried her
with him on many occasions.
e Mrs. Eliza Mayo took the stand
in her husband's defense and told
the jury that Mayo had been very
nice to Pickens and that he had
taken care of him for a long time.
"He paid his medical bills and gave
him money to buy food with," stat-
ed Mrs. Gooden.
Thursday morning the state com-
pleted its rebuttal testimony and
Attorney Snell called Gooden to the
stand again. Attorney Snell called
him for the purpose of showing
discrepancies in his testimony at
the Habeas Corpus hearing and the
testimony he gave at the trial.
Gooden maintained that he told the
truth all the way.
Judge Boyd gave his charge to
the jury near noon Thursday on
the law of an accomplice in murder,
and instructed that if they be-
lieved beyond the shadow of a
reasonable doubt that the defendant
was innocent, they should acquit
him. On the other hand he said,
"If you believe that the defendant
is guilty as an accomplice, you must
say so in your verdict and assess a
penalty of any term of years from
five years to life or death in the
electric chair.”
