THURSDAY, APRIL 22ND, 1937. Frank C. Withers. In the death last week of Frank C. Withers, of Columbia, South Carolina lost an outstanding citizen of the old fashioned sort. Modest and unassum ing, he gave of his time and talents to the upbuilding of Columbia, with special emphasis on the capital city’s church and school life. No fanfare of trumpets marked his accomplishments, but with his passing it is realized that his name is written indelibly across the pages of Columbia’s his tory Some one said 1 of him that “he lived beautifully,’’ and that, we be lieve, sums up his life, both public and private. Some one said of himzz btbtmtbm In spite of multitudinous duties, Mr. Withers took an active interest in the affairs of the South Carolina Press Association and had been treasurer of that organization for a number of years. His fellow mem bers were guided in many instances by his wise counaei and, while we did not always agree with him, we had a great respect for his opinions, know ing that they expressed the honest convictions of a well-trained mind and a kindly heart. The People-Sentinel extends sincere sympathy, not only to his bereaved family but to his fellow workers on The State, on which newspaper he had risen from the post of traveling rep resentative to that of general mana ger. One Man—and a Mob. Out in Mississippi, William Clark Mitchell, 54-year old white man, faces death on the gallows for the >rch murder of two negroes. In the me State officers of the law deliver- two negro men to a mob of un masked men in broad daylight. The negres were tortured with blow tor ches until they confessed the murder of a white storekeeper last Decem ber. They were then burned to death while the mob howled its ap proval. The officers of the law de clared that they did not recognize any of the mob and none of them will be brought to the bar of justice to answer for the crime. One man may pay the death penal ty for murdering two negroes, a mob of scores of others will go scot free for a like crime. One man may stage a sit-down strike in an establishment and be promptly evicted by officers of the law. A mob of several thousand may bald a great industrial plant in defi ance of court orders to vacate because officers of the law fall in the per formance of their duty. * Mississippi mob violence has prob ably insured the passage of a federal anti-lynching bill. Michigan mob violence should insure the adoption of federal anti-sit-down legislation. After all, anarchy is anarchy, whether or not it bear the union label. Triple “C” News Notes W. TEAL, Reporter.
