Business and Editorial Phone 462c1 Saturday. December.11, 1935 In his address to the-legisla, ture called for a special session b> him, Governor Johnson lambasted the Highway Commission, the Chief Commissioner, Mr) Ben Sawyer in par.tieul r. Among the things he . excoriated Mr. Sawyei "for, and "which he seems to think makes him unfit for tha{ position ?was the fact that Mr. Sawy.i thought former President Hoovei an excellent President and predieted hie re-election in 1UJ2. The best that the Associated Press writ'rs in making up thmythical All-American . Footbaf Team would do for Oze Simmon? the Iowr. flash. was to giv,. him a place on the First Alternate team Just keep it up, Oy.e; maybe1 next year there'll lie no first alternate for you.? White people are great all l'ight and can do almost anything alone tho line of human endeavor. But L--one thing they" are a flop in is tju sinking of Nef&o Spirituals as they: should be sung. It's- all but a pain to hear their attempt. The Now Deal is fighting foi ! its life. 'Monday last was fi; 1(1 (lav for it in the IY S. Suprcnp Court. How it will emerge, tin one at this time knows. Fxcellent as some of its features arr', yet the general tendency is to plan the Federal (Joveinnient snout ir too map.y things touching the ev. ery day life and activity of tin individual citizen. Congressman Hamilton Fish ol New York is n?y doubt a fine character. He believes in fairness tc all citiz* ns and mkh-c iliaimnri'. hi has championed some cause of tin Negro whom he knows pretty well During the World War he was s captain in the old New York lotl Regiment made up of colored men He has been spokeu of as a presidential candidate.' He gets oil however op the wrong?foot wlr r he says of Senator Borah, "hi comes nearer representing the pol icies of Theodore Roosevelt ant Abraham Lincoln than any mar in the country." Neither of thos< great men believed in_ Iynchiiu however ' THE SOl'TH AND 'LYNCHINC, -The .r.re' nwni.il Ind'W-Jnnrna states the South's position on lyn ching as follows* "Get this straight: Lynching ii without excuse. The South know: lynching is without excuse. Th( South j^peV not undertake to de fend lynching. The South want: ! law and order nhd protection fci [ the humblest citizen regardless ol \ - , his color. But when the state-ii asked to give up its authority ovei its citizens to the' federal govern ment In all cases wliw SO man; as three men make an attack or : v another, then the South or aitj . other section as for that mattei would better call a halt. If th< Wagrver-'Oostligan bill become? law, states might as well give uj their statehood. Their end ha? There- is no doubt that the besi elements of the South recognize? i the devastating effect of this fornr cf barbarity on its otherwise fine j? life. This element too is hecom ing articulate. Not too many jp--^-years ago, there were not thref newspapers in this state?and very ' few in the deep South?that would r~ have" had the nerve ttr give such an expression on lynching as the Index-Journal has done. Now, in < thin state, there could hardly be 3 foind three that would say other- 4 wise. That's progress. But pro- i gross, however is a slow thing, and 5 for that reason^ peVhayis, '^t eould not be expected that the Index- *' Journal would' commit itself tc the adoption of a Federal law to stamp ,<> out or mhk?4ess-frequent,this form h - uf.sa\ugury. is The papers argur *'A<at. such g a law would destroy statehood is v not impressive?certainly it is not ] logical. Tlie states are mighty j: glad for the Fedtral laws which u give the G-Men authority to run , down bank robbers and kidnapers ; ?and other crimes that are local j in their nature. Why draw the i v iiie in protecting life and due pro- t c ess of law ? Is not'the Federal government pledged to that? The j Index-Journal knows' or ought to j know that in the last 48 years over j five thousand men. worn* 11' and t children-?mostly Negroes ? h&ve N been done to death by fire, -shot * pud and rope^-without the sem- t olauce of a trial. An the states t have dor.e nothing about it. If not t a Federal law scch as the Costi- ( gaii.Wagner anti-lynch bill, what ] would the Journal suggest, giving ( - full or' donco to its abhorrence of -j lynching and its ^sincere desire to , see such wiped out?
