Hon. Harry M. Daugherty,
Attorney General u. S. a.

My Dear Sir-IThe Richmond Chap
ter fer tho Advnnc ement Of Colored
People views with alarm the increas-
ing spirit OF iawlcssness in the United
States. This Chapter has considered
the horrible conditions shown to exis,
under tho PeOq,age System IN jasper
county, Georgia, where q land owner
murdered in cold blood eleven Negro
es because OF fear that they might
testify against him regarding Peonage.
This Is tho most reyolting crime
that has been brought to light in the
History OF our Country. We are hor-
rif1ed to contemplate what effect this
state lot affairs will have upon the
safety OF our Democratic institutions.
The Richmond Chapter directs us to
appeal to You TO use all powers con
ferTed upon yOoi by the laws of the
United StaSes OF Amenica to STAMP
out Peonage in this Country forever,
whether it Is practieed against Ne.
groes or any other race OF people.
We earnestly appeal to you to use
all Of the power conferred upon you to
bring to trial before a court OF Jus.
tfce oil PERSONS WHO may he guilty Of
this horrible crime committed In Jas
per County Georgia. We arc furth r
objected to appeal to you and to Pros
ident Harding to inssdtute at once q
complete investigation OF Peonage In
the United States, to ascertain to what
extent citisens OF, this, country. ara
held in tPeona8o. We firmly believe
that aa long aH any vestige OF this
condition remains in our country, Il
