N. Y. Telegram Backs
Federal Law To Put
End to Lynching
New York, Sept. 26., —In
an editorial commenting up
on the recently announced
southern commission for the
study of lynching, the New
York Telegram backs up the
position taken by the Nation
al Association for the Advan
cement of Colored People
that a federal law will be
needed to end the crime,
The editorial says in part;
“But, however successfu'
this investigating group may
be in uncovering the causes
and fixing the blame for this
barbarous system; it can
hardly do more in the end
than reveal the dire need for
federal legislation and en
forcement as one part of the
solution.
“If the administration in
Washington carries out its
platform pledge to help the
Nefi'rD
lorcement (
lynching law.
“Once before such a bill
has passed the House only
to be killed by a Senate min.
ority filibuster. Now cole
Blease and some Southern
Senators in that filibuster
have been repudiated by the
voters. So the administra
tion should not have great
difficulty in passing such a
law if it acts with vigor and
determination. ’’
The N . A. A. G. P. attor
neys are now at work upon
the draft of a federal anti_
lynching law to be intro,
duced in House and Senate
at the next session of C o n-
gress. *

ter of Mr, and Mrs. Wm. Gormley

DIRTY WORK

Here’s Little Daisy, all intent upon fin
ishing her copy of “Casanova” tonight,
stealthily making way with the one
good globe from the living room lamp.
She wants it to fake the place of the
. burped-out one in her bedroom! But'
retribution follows swiftly in the shape
of Daisy’s Pa, who’s just discovered the
futility of trying to light a lamp without
any globe in it.
Believe it or not, this little bedtime story
has a moral, it’s this: It’s a wise house
hold that keeps an extra supply of Maz
da lamps on hand for all emergencies.
Why not drop by our store .oday- and
take home with you a carton ot 60-watt
or 100-watt inside frosted Mazda Lamp
Bulbs? They’re niightv friendly to the
eyes, give a whole evening's light toi
