Investigating Case BROOKLYN.—Because a robbery had been committeed by a tolored man on Tompkin Avenue, Chester Gourdine. year old Negro worker, | of 734 De Kalb Avenue, was arrested by police on Fulton Street while on his way home from a party. Gour- dine happened to be the first colored worker the police got their hands on. Failing to have him identified by the store-keeper who had been rob- bed, the police took young Gourdine to the station house where he was ubjected to a vicious beating up ang he worst indignities, being kicked in ribs and the abdomen and his e ducked in the dirty toilet bowl After this, a policeman, officer An- thony Tattani, and a detective, went to the youth’s house at 3:30 in the morning, forcing themselves in past Gourdine’s mother who had opened the door, and pulling their . guns when Mrs. Gourdine’s two other sons and 17-year old daughter roused out of bed challenged the police treat- ment-of their mother. They found nothing in the home. In court the next day. young Gour- dine was held in $5,000 bail for the Grand Jury. His mother screaming | at the sight of his battered face was | jected from the court. The two of-) gaye the most conflictin gevid- | ence, one claiming that he had seen Gourdine running on Fulton Avenue, while the other officer testified he had seen him walking. The store-keeper had been robbed of a small tin box of collar buttons. One officer testified the box was found in an ash can. The other of- ficer declared it was found on the dewalk. When they presented the collar buttons to the Grand Jury. they were in a Paris Garter box and not in the tin box. The League of Struggle for Negro Rights. of which Gourdine’s mother is a member, has brought the case to the attention of the District of- fice of the Internationa] Labor De- fense. The I. L. D. realizing that it is a plainly a case of a frame-up and of Negro oppression is taking up the matter. VACATION AT:—~ | ? =ND “The Farm in the Pines’ Improvements YOUR ic Light, All Near M. RD.
