Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes said last night that President Roosevelt was ‘‘distressed and dis turbed" by oppression of minorities "in certain parts of the world.” Ickes delivered what he said was an authorized presidential statement as he discussed reconstruction of Pales tine as a home for Jews migrating from Europe. He mentioned no coun try as the site of the Jewish oppression which he discussed at length. "He (Roosevelt) has charged me to say to you who are an integral and valued element in the Nation, that he is distressed and disturbed by the re version in certain parts of the world to days and deeds of an era which all enlightened people had long hoped would never return,” Ickes said. "It is his conviction that so long as minorities of the nations of the world are deprived of liberty of thought and religion, and the right to lead a normal, civilized life, there can be no true and permanent understanding between na tions.” Ickes likened the Palestine project to the Roosevelt administration’s re covery program. The dinner marked the half-way mark in the city’s iPfTort to raise $1,500,000 toward a national quota of $3,500,000 for settlement in Palestine of Jews from Germany, Poland and other countries. -• Remorse Kills Snake.

Colored U. S. Mechanic Hailed As Hero of Selassie’s Pilots By the Associated Pres*. CHICAGO. May 25.—John C. Robinson, who left a garage mechan ic's job here 13 months ago to become the “brown condor" of Haile Selassie flying corps, returned to his home in Chicago's Negro district last night, acclaimed a hero. Not since the night Heavyweight Joe Lewis knocked out King Levinsky in the first round had Chicago's 250, 000 Negroes accorded any one of their race such a welcome. Hundreds of Negroes broke police lines and stormed the plane on which Robinson flew here from New York. A plane piloted by Dr. Earl Renfroe, flying colored dentist, escorted the big airliner to the airport. A delegation headed by former Representative Oscar de Priest and W. T. Brown, jr., listed in the Invi tations as mayor of "Bronievllle,” greeted Robinson as he stepped from the plane. Girl members of the Challenger Air Pilots Association, which Robin son organised in 1932, stood nearby with bouquets of flowers. Officers of the 8th Infantry of the Illinois Nationl Guard, members of the United Aid for Ethiopa Society and leaders in Chicago's Negro ranks were at the airport to greet Robinson. P.-T. A.
