i White Man Freed Of Rape Charge RALEIGH, N. Oct. 3L (By A. N. Sam Johnson, a white mechanic, was freed of the charges of raping a colored woman here on Wednesday morning when the jury decided that there was a lack of probable cause to convict the alleged rapist.

PITTS DUJIGU COURIER PACE NINE FIRST SECTION PipP PROTESTS Rexnslatesieat Of Policcsun JHia Shot; Liacob Stu dent knd Benchinj i Of TJyers Viforouily Pro teiteda i NEW YORK: Oct. 31.

The National. Association for the Advancement cf Colored People, 69 Fifth avenue, has sent a sharp telegram of protest to Police Commissioner Grover A. Whalen against the reported intention to return to duty' Patrolman Walter Lowe, who, on October 9, last, in Brooklyn; shot and gravely injured Ralph Baker, young Lincoln University student. At a hearing in the Sixth district magistrate's court, of Brooklyn on October 21, the charges trumped up by the patrolman! against Baker and Baker's companion, William Fontaine, were dismissed. The presiding magistrate, Mark Rudich, interrupted the hearing 'to call all parties into his chambers, in an effort to make aa adjustment whereby the boys would drop their complaint against the patrol man in return for having the trumped up charges against tLjm of assault and disorderly conduct dismissed.

Upon advice of the JS'. a. a. r. representatives, the boys decided against any compromise and proceeded with the trial, whereupon the magistrate.

after a very brief hearing, dismissed all charges. It was freely; admitted out ox court that the' patrolman had shot the wrong man, but despite this on the stand, he and his young woman companion positively identified the two Lincoln students as ones who had been "arrested" and who had tried to escape. This testimony abso lutely conflicted with that of witnesses procured by the N. A. A.

C. P. i Immediately after the dismissal of the charge, the N. A. A.

C. telegraphed Police Commissioner Whalen, urging police department investigation both of Patrolman Lowe's actions and his testimony on the stand, asking that he be. dismissed as unfit to be entrusted with a revolver. i i Believe Myers Should Quit Reports, later that Dave Myers, colored football star of New; York University, would be by Coach Meehan and not allowed to play in tho game with University of Georgia because of the southerners' race prejudice, also brought sharp protest from the asso ciation. i The N.

A. A. P. first protested vigorously to Chancellor Elmer Ells worth Brown of New iork Lniver sity, the letter being referred, to committee in charge of athletics. The N.

A. A. P. urgedjthat the New York University football appear "intact" on the day set for the game, November 9, and place, the burden of refusing to play because of, race prejudice on the Georgia team. It was then announced by Coach "Chick" Meehan of New York University that Myers would not be allowed to play, a "gentlemen's agreement" having been arrived at with Georgia.

There rpon the N. A. A. C. P.

issued the following statement, widely i published in the press: "Dave Myers 1 would do well to resign from N. Y. University's football team as a protest against Coach Meehan's cowardly, capitulation to color prejudice. It is significant that N. Y.

University's surrender to the South occurs simultaneously with the announcement of the Carnezie Foundation that that university has been found a conspicuous sinner in the matter of commercializing ath letics, "Color prejudice and often go together. As for the 'gentlemen's agreement' to eliminate the colored star of N. Y. U. from the game with Georgia, that is misnomer.

WELFARE FUND SEEKS $1,165,055 Nature," Purpose and Operation of the Organization la Tiw of 'the recent aaaooaca nBt br itba i Welfare Fund Pittsburg aad Allegheny Couaty. that the sum ot $1.11.0. a is to ba sought this year in the annual tea day campaign, November It might be timely to explain again the nature, purpose and operation ot this organisation: Tbe Welfare Fund Is a voluntary Including at the present time 31 important charitable and philanthropic institutions serving ftals city arid county, 'association ia always, open to ky other similar agency that may wish, to Join. Ukewjoe any member Is privileged to withdraw at any time ir dissatisfied for any reason. 8 fx strong Institutions have joined this year.

None tare withdrawn. Perhaps the chief reason for the association is tbe greater ease and economy with which its member asencies are ablo to secure tbe money they must have. Uader the qld plan it was coating, them at least li per cent and probably a great deal more. In 1929 under tbe Welfare I fund. It.

cost them something! less than per cent and next year lit: will cost somewhat Over 5 per cent. Ot great Importance also Is the fact that, in tha old days the most Important officials ia the various Institutions were obliged to spend much of their time in seeking for funds sometimes almost a half of it. Now they are able to devote all their time to their proper work, which Is the relief of suffering and tbe improvement oC conditions among the. poor. By combining the appeals ot thxse institutions into a' groat appeal, once a year and tor ten days on Jr.

the public Is relieved of the nuisance of more than 80 separate appeals. 1 In addition, the subscribers have theassurenoe that every 'dollar Saei to some worthy cause and i will expended with, the sama economy and efficiancy that a business man exercises. In the use ot his personal capital. It should be understood, however, that any action on the part of the Welfare Fund effects only its men be agencies. Tbe prom therefore, that tbe combination or many appeals Into one great appeal wtll reltev the publie of frequent solicitations, applies only to tbe member institutions as already stated, and the frequent recurrence of tag days and other approaches all come from institutions outside tbe Welfare Fnni cm.
