Georgia Urges Race Commission.

Athens, Georgia, March Is, 1920.
In very lengthy article in the At
lanta Constitution, is set forth a
strong appeal to the Governor of
that state for the appointment of a
Race Commission, whose duty it shall
be encourage and make all sane
efforts to minimize race friction and
antagonism. The idea was conceived
and presented by Professor C. J..
Heatwole with the chair of Sociology
University of Georgia. The good
work which has been done by the u
University Race Commission of the
South warrants that body of this
kind could do much toward the estab-
lishment of better understanding be-
tween white and colored races gener-
ally.
Professor Heatwole says, "The
important thing to do at present is
provide Forum for hearings and
free discussion where ruth and fact
are Respected and where intelligent
action will result rather than action
which brings reproach under he sa-
cred foundations of law and order"
Such a Commission would form
the basis of system of cooperation
between he races and soften the pre-
sent strained relations, not to speak
of the effect of stimulating them to
a higher plane of meeting conditions

and had been in jeopardy of his life
He worked for the state during his
Imprisonment. He had a claim in
equity at least. Those who sought to
pay him the money were moved by a
sense OF justice that was entirely
creditable to them.
We see nothing in the incident ex-
cept the story of tragedy and an
example of how the courts them
selves may make errors involving the
taking of life.
There is no reason or excuse for
the jibe that the population of Missis-
sippi consists of "colonels, majors
and niggers".
The people of Mississippi are at
work, each one trying to discharge
his full duty as a citizen. Very few
Of them are loafing around preach
ing Bolshevism, cussing the govern
ment and making a nuisance of them
selves.
The Chicago Whip wonders and
gravely speculates about the circum-
stantial evidence and complete lack
of evidence in the cases of "a col
ored persons that have beein lynched
in Mississippi in the last year. The
Legislature would have to have an
extra session if they attempted to in
demnify the relatives of the victims

IN MEXICO
AND THE UNITED STATES.
By Linn A. E. Gale

Since 1911, according to Ambas-
sador Fletcher, there have been PIT
Americans killed in Mexico.
| Since 1911, there have been 544
Americans lynched in the United
States. Nobody knows how many
were killed in strikes and labor trou-
bies. Nobody knows how many con-
scientious DIRECTORS, Socialists and
|. w. WIS have been beaten, tor
tured and starved to death in Amer
lean dungeons.
Just the other day a gang of MUIR
derers broke into the Jail at Pueblo,
Colo, and lynched two Mexican in
mates.
Daily the tools of the American
government in their efforts to
strangle all Independent thot in Wall
Streets empire, commit outrages
that make the soul shudder and the
heart grow sick.
Fresh from the field of the most
awful carnage ever known, their
hands still dripping with the blood
not only of the workingmen of the
lately warning countries, but of the
freest people on earth-the Rus
sians-the "Huns" of America pro-
pose to invade Mexico and over
throw a government, weaker and
younger, to be sure, but more liberal
and honest than the regime of blood
and-iron that reigns in Washington
American manhod, regardless of
political and economic differences,
should rise as a unit to put down this
foul plot of dollar-demented devils
of imperialistic finance.
