3 ' j IN WASHINGTON | WHAT ! IS TAKING PLACE BY (jm* f^. UNITED STATES SENATOR The situation wUh regard to lynching in the United States hardly Justifies the time the Sen ate is giving to the anti-lynching bill However, as it was broU? forth primarily for v?le-gat*?rd~ ing purposes in Northern and Eastern states, Southern Senator, have been forced to come to the defense of law enforcement offi cers in their respective states. No-, where in the country is there to be found more able and efficient men than those who enforce state, ? county and municipal laws in the South. A Federal antl-lynch la would be a reflection on these of ficers? and all possible effort is being made tto prevent it. Fortunately, the debate on the, antl-lynchlng bill comes at a time when the Senate Is awaiting a conference report on the farm bll and action onr other measuies pendTng?n th? House. Thus. Sou thern Senators are carrying , their fight without, up to the present time, serious dela[ . to much-needed and important legis lalpe?haps never before has the Senate given such time to the control of a non-existent problem. Lynching is no longer a real prob lem. Greater progress has been made in control of lynching# tha . in perhaps any other form Ot crime. In 1901, there were 130 people lynched in the United, States. In 1936, there were nine. North Carolina had none. What | other crime has been reduced so rapidly? Who reduced it? Not the Federal Government, but vigilant ( law enforcement officers in the Southern states. One feature of the proposed antl-lynch law would provide an indemnity for t*e families of. un- , fortunate lynch victims. ^ ha about funds for the 1 ?'_ Federal officers killed by gang Hters* The government provides none' Yet, the legislative montros itv known as the antl-lynch law Is being ^Tven attention as If It were designed to control a national problem, instead of to get votes for the sponsor#. This is being done at a time when the South Is the safest part of the United States for law-abid ing people and is a section where law-abiding negroes have theli greatest number of friends W hat is really proposed is to 1>nch the Constitution and its guaian tees of states' rights solely foi vote-gathering purposes. Any such idea is. of course, extremely dis tasteful to Southern members of Congress schooled in the tia i ti0SBur?ngth1936U^ere were forty four instances in which ?*|??*s of the law prevented Thirty-nine of these were in Sou them states. Here is evidence of what officers in the South are d ing to prevent lynching# at the r"sk of their lives. The Federal Government could not do the job b6tSince the year 1882, Jher<vhave been 4,67 3 people lynched W the United States, according to avail able records. Does this look like a national problem? While nine peo ple were lynched in 1936, near _y 40.000 were killed in carelM. and npelieent highway accidents, rnis ?b ! national problem. Does the Federal Government propose to do something about that. cer talnly it is of more national con cern than the unfortunate lynch ing of nine persons for crimes for which they would have, n most instances, been executed by the Congress in the anti-lynching bill is endeavoring to make a legislative mountain out of a lo cal mole hill. Reports continue to accumulate from county agents showing that cotton yields have been increased by one-half a bale average per acre where the seed were treated for disease before planting.
