Greensboro, Nov. 17—“I’m going to send everybody who comes before me for speeding to jail, be they white or black, rich or poor,” declared Judge David Harvey Collins in municipal court here this morning. Four white men were charged with speeding and each received a sentence of 10 days in the county jail. One of the victims had been married just two weeks and he took separation quite seriously.
