Of course, this came from Democratic sources just as from Re" publican source come .the asset tioh that President Roosevelt is afraid to seem too friendly toward the Negro. To substantiate the latter the fact that the President did . not lift a finger in helping the successful enactment of thi Cdstigan-Wagner tinti-lynching bill with law. No longer, however can it be said th"at Governor Landon is indifferent to the Ne gro. The Governor himself ha 'J " , scotched that kind of propaganda. In a recent- statement to Robert Churchu -the' -prominent and influential Colore I Republican lead er of Memphis, Tenn., he said "We must devise some legal means which will be effective ii endir.e.this great menace to oui in>tftutions. Furthermore, oui p'artv will insist that the Negrc shall receive~eqvfa) treatment in receiving reliol and not be dis~ criminated against because of his race or political faith." In this statement Governor tandan 'touches two important things, important to the Negro as well as to the country. Lynching not only deprives the Negro o: the fundamental, constitutional right of being tried n the Courts but stamps the America as a place , where the orderly processes o law are r.ot respected. Then the rank discrimination in the relief administration is unworthy of the idea which' brought forth ' the governmental effort to_.su.eeorurnfortunate humanity. Why there should be racial discrimination there is past finding out. Or.ly a miehtv sfnall rr.ind an?. a hear* with wormwood and gall in i could give itself to such. lf~Governor Land can and will lend his earnest efforts to the ending o. these two vile things, then every Negro who can vote, should enlist in the cause of having him ele^ted President. These two evils are not theories to the Negro but actualities. A FEW HAPPENINGS IN DIXIE The South, is so often pictured as a dark and dismal place for the Negro that the good things are lost .sight off and are passed by un-Sung. " Btit allTs-by~"no "means" dark and dreary as may be gleaned frorji the following: 1. In MTss^ jssippj. the supreme court heard arguments in the appeal of a white man who was convicted by a jury of whites for the dastardly murder of a colored man and his wife. He was sentenced to be Electro euted. His accomplice was convicted and received a life sentence; he did not appeal as he had en tered a plea of guilty. Keep ir, mind this was in Mississippi,. 2. The same day as above, the Supreme Court of Arkansas affirmed a sentence of one year given a white man for Stealing a hop of a Negro. This culprit complained of the fact that a jury ol white men believed the Negro's testimony instead of his?a com?* * mon appeal made by cheap law'* yers to a white jury where the testmoiny of colored Witnesses is , Commenting on that point the Supreme Court said: "Concededly, it is to the discredit of Linebaugh * (the appellant), a white man, that a jury of his county saw fit to heed trrjieve Negro's testimony in pref >?* to his, especially where inv IprisoYiment in the penitentiary is ^ involved, but with this we have ] nothing to do. If LinebaOgh's life < and conduct have been such as to J .warrant?this?infamy,?he?has no -< one to blame but himself." * 3. And yet again, on the same 4 day in Mississippi, another act, that of Mr. R. H. Green, a whole- e sale merchant of Jackson, stands j out. By his will he disposed of his estate appraised at betwee.n six and seven hundred' thousand dollars. After stipulated gifts of to relatives, friends and " servants, he placed the remainder in .triist for hospitalization of indigent Negroes. 4., . Last week in ChaTTotte, N C.,'two Negroes were "indicted for murder. The Grand Jury ho we vet which voted the indictment was composed of all white men. The lawyers defending the two men challenged the legality of the Grand Jury because of this?a thing that has been the custom ; in the South for almost 50 years. The presiding judge in view of the "Scottshoro" case* decided hy thp ! I U. S. Supreme Court nad to susi tain the contention of the lawyers. These, of course, are but a . few of the encouraging things >that are happening. 1 ?

L. Hoi- - T - c:- Sey, Field Officer A Southern sharecroppers who have been trying since the Civil War to secure a more equitable distribution of the income from fc cotton are receiving a larger share ,t; of government payments this yeai ^ man under previous AAA Frograms. ' 7 The Agricultural Adjustment . Admihistration. having learned 11 I through experience that special at- J' ; tention should be given the inter- 1 ests of tenants and sharecroppers, al has outlined the following for di- { vision of government payments:. ^ 37 1-2 percent to the person fui nishing the land; 12 1-2 percent to the person furnishing the work * stock and equipment; 50 percent tt * be divided as the crop is divided. n.( This means that the payment 1 ' share for the tenant varies with the leasing agreement between the u landlord and the tenant' but the u sharecropper MUST receive at least 25 percent of the soil-conser ' ( vine payment's and-This will?be- ? paid BY CHECK DIRECT FROM ai THE GOVERNMENT TO THE n} SHARECROPPER. Under nreviou nroirrami! tVw> " received only about 15 percent and the check was made out in most cases to the landlord. Many~rsharefi'nppio i . m pi n i n oil th-it thny n..? -til er received their share of the ben , efit payments. ' V The total number of sharecrop pers in the United State in 1935 '^ was 2.800,000, of which one-third ' were Negroes. During the same " year, there were 180,005 Negro farm owners ..who cultivated more than 11.000,000 acres. The bulk of the Negro tenants and sharecroppers. as well as Negro land owners, is in the South. With the present prices, and the ai large*l domestic crop since 1933. , farmers' income from cotton this Jk: season will probably b<? the largest since 1929-30 and from 70 to 80 percent larger than the low level u of 1932-33. In addition to sharing government' payments, Negri-.- . cotton farmers in the South also * will benefit by the increased pric- i* es brought about by operation of the present Administration's farm policies.
