THE FIGHT FOR
JUSTICE IN GEORGIA A
lnter-Racial Commission Wakink
& Vigorous Campaign.

Atlanta, Ga.-(Special.) The
Georgia Commission on Inter-racial
Cooperation, under the leadership of
DR.. T. j. Wolfter, is waging vigor-
Gus campaign against mob violence
and injustice, and for the develop
ment of public sentiment that will
insure the protection of the life and
property Of every citizen, irrespec-
tive of color. Governor Dorsey's as
founding exhibit of lynchings and
other injustices was published and
widely circulated by the commission
and created profound impression.
The commission has drafted and is
working hard for the enactment of
an effective anti lynching law.
Meantime many cases of mob vio-
lence and injustice have been inves-
tigated by the commission and legal
aid has been extended in a number.
Among the latter may be mentioned
the notorious Williams .- murder
farm" case, which the commission
helped to prosecute and in which con-
victions were secured; the case of
Tom Parks whose farm was saved
from fraudulent foreclosure; the re-
lease of colored boy who was held
in service without pay and brutality
treated; the case of Asbury Nc
Clusky, now pending, in which mob
attacked McClusky's home, wounded
him, and tried to drive him from the
community. The commission has
identified members of this. mob and
filed $4,000 damage suit against
them.
AS much publicity as possible has
been secured in these and other cases
and good results are accruing. 1t is
notable that in two recent lynchings
indictments have been returned, and
in one of them convictions have been
secured. This indicates that great
progress is bein made. Some Of the
best legal talent in Georgia is giving
every possible aid to the commission.

: Boston, Mass, Oct. 7, 1922.-On
Wednesday, Senator H. C. Lodge told
delegation of the National Equal
Rights League that the Dyer and
Liberian bills are next on the Senate
calendar whenever Congress assem-
bles and that any special session will
advance them for consideration.
The League urges all to ask senator's
and congressman to write to the
President for this special session.
Thursday mornings Boston Post

large heading: 49,. 49,. f.
AT noon yesterday Senator Lodge
received a delegation of the National
Equal Rights League at the Republic
can state committee headquarters in
the Kimball building. d. -:
"Those in the delegation were the
Rev. MA. N. Shaw, national presi-
dent; William Monroe Trotter, ma
tional secretary; Mrs. Hester jeff
reys, secretary; Albert g. Wolf, Esq,
and A. Pyburn Of the Boston branch.
"The League asked the senator for
his support of the petition to Presi-
dent Harding to call a special session
of Congress next month with the
Dyer bill on the program for action.
They mentioned that Representative
Tinkham had already written the
President, and also showed him the
letter to i Shaw from the White
House, in which Secretary Christian
said the matter would be brought be-
fore the President in connection with
the arrangements for any contem-
plated special session.
- Senator Lodge reminded Secre-
tary Trotter that at his instance the
senator had taken the bill out of the
Senate judiciary subcommittee and
declared he had zealously worked for
enactment of the Dyer bill. He
agreed to write to the President urg-
ing special session at which the
senator stated the Liberian loan and
the Dyer anti-lynching bills would be
first on the calendar. 49, Is

HAS PORCH AUTOS CAN'T HIT

Bumped by 5speeders.

Newton, N. J.--Postmaster Lester
T. Smith Of Layton has a big front
porch on his house, which is on Bing-
mans road at a point where there is
a sharp curve, and for many years he
has sat there In the evenings and
smoked his pipe without anything
happening to him. But the other day
he was having smoke when an auto
mobile came around the bend and
skidded, smashing into the porch and
wrecking one end Of it.
The automobilist paid for the dam
age and went on his way and the post
master sent for carpenter, who.
worked all night and all morning put
ting new end on the porch. Late
In the afternoon the postmaster went
out to have another smoke, but he
had hardly tilted his chair back and
lighted his pipe when another auto
mobile came whizziag around the
curve and skidded.
Once more the machine crashed into
the porch and wrecked an end Of it,
and, since it was the end on which he
was sitting, he went down with the
wreckage. But he was not hurt, and
he got out of the debris In time to COL
lect from the automobilist, who paid
and drove on. Then the postmaster
called for the carpenter and gave or

he told the carpenter to tear down
the front porch and build one on the

THE REASON.

The Boston Guardian edited by Will
liam Monroe Tratter, is the paper
which stands first and foremost in
the battle against jimcrowism. The
following editorial from recent issue
is timely: ag
The reason that a preparatory Y.
M. C. A. or civic centre is a step
backward is that in ! the North it
means nothing less than an invita-,
ton to white men conducting places
for public patronage or recreation,
to refuse, deny or segregate all col
ored patronage and point to such an
institution as just reason for SO
doing, and soon: the idea as we'll as
the practice of setting colored Ameri-
cans off by themselves in all places
for public accommodation will spread
until, as in many cities throughout
the North will be found segregating
or denial in theatres, restaurants
and such places, until it reaches the
public schools. ... .-...
Every attempt to help in any way
the singing out of ,colored Americans
as race, in this country, for whom
must be maintained separate places
of public accommodation, must be
defiantly fought, not even lending ear
to the argument so common in cities
of the middle West that such sep
arate institutions furnishes "jobs''
for our men and women. -.
B The colored people can not sell their
citizenship rights in education and
with the proceeds, pay the salaries
of a few persons who may get en-
ploy1nent in such Jim crow insti'
tutions.

n, A. A. c. P. Secretary
Addresses Nashville Law
Enforcement Conference
Compares Lynchino Horrors to
Y Turkish Atrocities

Declaring that Turkish. atrocities
were no more worse than excuses
committed by the lynching mobs in
America, James Weldon johnson,
Secretary Of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, addressed the Law Enforcement
Conference, being held October 8 to
6, under the auspices of the Board of
Temperance, Prohibition and Public
Morals Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, in Nashville, Tenn.
i. In horror there is nothing to
choose between the worst excesses
attributed to the Turk and the tor
ture of the victims of <lynching mobs
in America" said Mr.. johnson.
"Have not 80 women been lynch in
the Christian United States between
the years 1889 and 1921 Have not
3,436 known lynchings taken place in
our country from 1889 to January /,
1922? And what is the alleged ex-
cuse for these horrors? It is that
the colored man is a rapist. Certain
~ that charge is not justified against
the 81 women who were murdered by
mobs. Of the 3,436 known lynchings
to which I have referred, only $40 or
16 $40 per cent were even attrib-
uted to the crime of rape, and it
should be borne in mind that accus-
ing man of rape is far from estab-
fishing his guilt. I have with me
figures showing that in one year, in
one of the five counties comprising
Greater New York more white per-
sons were indicted for rape in the
first degree than there were colored
accused of it and lynched for it
throughout the United States in a
five-year period including that year.
The. year is 1917 in which 81 white
persons were indicted for rape in the
first degree in New York county. In
the fve-year period 1914-1918, only
20 >colored out Of 264 lynched were
accused of rape, and these figures
are exclusive of the deaths in the
East st. Louis riot of 1917.
1T is very largely in the hands of
the church as a moulder of public
opinion to correct the malicious
SANDER which gives rise to the abom-
Unable crimes Of mob murder that
make our protests about Turkish
atrocities seem the veriest hypoc-
risy."
