C., Saturday, May 1st REACTION OF TH F PRESS TO THE ANTI-LYNCIIING BILL America is a big country; in habiUtTEjF'many people of man\ mind?, of different feelings, ol various educational levels, culture and refinement. Some are definitely followers of Christ and oth ers of the devil; many are hypo critical and many sincere; some are full of the milk of human kindness, while there are others devoid of every sense of humanity. Many stand for law and order, while there are others who prefei th? law o*f the jungle It is not surprising therefore that thte. reaction to the recent passage of the Gavagan anti-lynching law ?bv the lower house of Congress is anything* but uniform. The northern ?- : press is all but unanimous in it.praise and commendation of th<. passage of the bill, the hope being expressed that the Senate will also pass" the measure. The southern press condemns and encourages th> southern senators to fight its passage to the bitter end. It must not be understood however that the whole southern press take= J such a stand for there are notable exceptions, particularly, the largei and more influential papers. Many of the smaller and rural ones seem ? ?yet rot to be tired of smelling Uv hearing flesh of burning human beings. Some even go so far as to express the fear that if such a law is passed1, in"- revenge, there will I e more lynchings They know bette *, for lynchers are cowards 1 lU._ ll/~> ? 1-1 1 - onu mc vj-mtii wouiu not De lon^ in putting the fear?if not of Go.ii ?then of Uncle Sam in their sadistic hearts. And then too if that is the real sentiments of such rats, the sooner an anti-lynch ing hill is passed, the better it will be. South Carolina's record for lynching is pet as bad as some of tho real lynching states, though it is black enough, and it. is to be regn-MeH?that one of?its?new-1 papers suggests the possibility of revenga'lyridhings, and that too from a coupty that boasts of never having had av lynching?Chester county. The following is what it? The Chester Reporter?says: Would Re Resented Instead of decreasing lynching there are many who believe that-a federal statue will increase it, and thoy may t>e corrrct. There v/TTT naturally be a wave of resentment throughout the Southern states, at which the new law is directed, and it's not unlikely when, the law is fully understood and. the animus behind it that a wave of lynching-: - will sweep over this section. As has also been pointed out local officers, who will be made the objects of relentless prosecution by the federal rnvornmprf. mnv ni.S try to arrest criminals likely to he lynched, if h lynching- means that they (the officers) are to be hailed into court by the Washington authorities. No other measure pushed through congress in years has probabl" led to half the troublethat this one may bi ing in its wake. THINK ON THESE THINGS Within a short time now thcusands of dollars will be paid out by graduates of Negro schools and colleges for class rings, pins, etc. It would be interesting to know just how much of that money passes through the hands of colored men and women as agents of the Urge jewelry manufacturing ho usL eg furnishi.tg such. We venture the suggestion howevef that the amount would be painfully small. And yet this business ?? large enough to give sfeVeral such agents lucrative employment' Perhaps, the pupils themselves have ..never thought of this side of a matter which, alter all, is woithy of serious utten'.ion, Many' of thesP same pupils are going forth, from schools with nothing ih particular in prospect for them ih the shape of * employment. Perhaps even the principals and presidents of these schools and colleges have nevei given a thought to the fact tliat the supplying of such 'jewelry constitute a business of aome magnitude, and would thu3 Kive some of these same boys aiid girls t ousiness opening. We are quite certain of. that, otherwise we would see this business in the hands of colored agcn.tf>? Negroes complain so much about there art no chances in the busi/mss worie ior them when they are walking all over such opportunities, The trouble '' is, there Is too little thought being exercised' We thin! coo much in terms of What is, toe nttle in the possibility in what car and might be done. \* e l?ok to< ..iiw.li fn.*. o h'om those - ?vhc/ by foresight, push nnd hus.tli aave themselves established something. The. Negro is not "s weal and helpless as hQ all too oi'tei: .hinks he is; he is just lacking u sound thinking, in conjnion. sensi and confidence in hiinstlli* As ii tile jewelry business i?i>' it might oe said in i.he matter of graduation .nvitaiions and all othe1' kinds 01 mi' tts that is concerned. Negrc concerns could take cat'? pf all ousirress o'f that kind a/-d did colored' people think alon^ that line .nany a young man ai>d woman vould be employed who how have /othing to1 do. From the stand yti'dkl of business entei'jH'ises, iong as the colored lhaii takes no thought of tomorrow afld. is only concerned with today so long vein tilings b0 dark and dreary tor the -ay. It there is anybocly in the world who' needs a New lical, it's the Negro; not a New p?al given to him by some one else, however, o much as a New Deal himseli, oy himself and for hmse't* ?* (%/ /vi i Aim .4 iv i ? 1T1U U IK ? /VliK 1 1 | ECHOES ! | By "CAP JIM", J Well insofar as our kfM'nt? rue~ord is^uneerned, our cty a no . _>u.ui.iy aie rtmmng 7U'lle~: to Torm .nuoed it is a mystery '.week when one closes its 7 uays without Uk ..hocking on ol sunu> o"e.
