Johnson Liable to Be Prosecuted
Galveston Texas March 13 If Champion Jack Johnson brings his white wife to Galveston he will be prosecuted under Texas laws forbidding whites and blacks marrying. Johnson says he is legally divorced from his negro wife and will bring his white wife. He contends the marriage did not take place in Texas. The federal Supreme Court has ruled the state can prohibit unions of whites and blacks and impose penalties even if married in a state permitting such marriages.
