Blackman, a negro, whose offense consisted of nothing more than walking on the street after midnight with & woman whom a detective presumed to be white. In reversing the verdict Judge Me- Intyre said: “Such arrests as this do much to engender race hatred. The defendant would have been justified in using force to prevent his arrest.” Blackman is a Pullman porter and lives at No, 253 West 137th. Street. He was agraigned before Magistrate Mancuso in the Washingtgn Heights Court on July 11 and fined $10 on a charge of disorderly conduct. The only evidence against the negro consisted of a sworn statement | by Detective Harry Kutner of the Sixth Inspection District, ‘The facts in the case as told to Judge Molntyre and borne out by @ transcript of the testimony taken before Magistrate| Mancuso were that Blackman and Miss Sadie Mason, o comely octoroon ‘from Jacksonville, 208 Weet 1¢ist Street, were at Lenox Avenue and 135th Street on the night of July 10 watching the departure ot the British dirigtble R-34. ‘They were approached by De- | tective Kutner and another man, who demanded of the negro what he was doing on the street with a white woman. Blackman told his ques- toners it was none of their business and he and Miss Mason started to walk to the house where she was visiting. The detective and his com- panion followed, and upon Black- man’s further refusal to answer ques- tions arrested both the negro and der op nding the night in Jail th er spe: e night in jail the woman wap hoforably discharged. in the Women's Court.
