them.
A box of books, contributed to the
camp by Mrs. W. E. McNab has been
sent to the side camp. The boys
down there will enjoy them, as it is
the first unit of their library. A
number of interesting light novels
were included, and this is what the
boys like. We thank Mrs. McNab
for the books, and will be glad to get
any others anybody has . in the attic.
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.
