USUAL CRIME
ARGUMENT
IS UNTRUE
Small Percentage of Lynched
Men Cha .ged With
Assault.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Into debate
upon the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, H.
r. Is, which is now before the House
of Representatives, certain Southern
Democratic members have injected the
question of lynching as a preventive
of "the usual crime" namely, assaults
by colored men upon white women.
Only 10 Per Cent Charged With As
sault.
Statistics collected by the N. A. A.
c. P. of lynchings since 1889 show
that of the 3,436 victims of lynching
mobs, from 1889 to- January |, 1922,
only loo per cent had even been ac-
cused of assault That is to say, that,
roughly, five out of every six persons
publicly murdered were not even ac-
cused of "the usual crime" Further
more, since 1889 some 64 women were
publicly iynched.
These figures are sufficient commen-
tary on the now antiquated talk about
"the usual crime" as a cause of lynch
ing Most American citizens, white
and colored, are aware of the facts,
but the revival of the old falsehoods
on the floor of the House of Repre-
sentatiyes impels ms to make these
facts available.
Is Constitutional.
The other main obstacle to the pas
sage of the bill, is argument on its
constitutionality. This question, it
seems to the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People,
ought to be left to the Supreme Court,
az the Department of Justice. through
Judge Guy D. Golf, and Attorney
General Daugherty is on record as
holding the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill
to be constitutional and the House
Committee on the Judiciary has also
so declared.
